Throughout the process, Sakurako didn't mention that those things were not miasma but evil spirits, and although she didn't want to let it decline before she settled in this long-coveted land, she also didn't want the Five Elements Mechanism to flourish. Sooner or later, someone will find out that those special miasma are evil spirits, so use them now to contain the Five Elements Mechanism.

And at her destination, Hongchuan, a few days away from Mount Tai, Venerable Huyan, who put down the phone, lowered his head for a long time and did not say a word.

Looking at the manuscript paper on the ground in a daze, Venerable Huyan only felt that his mind was in chaos. He was still guessing Qiao Cang Sakurako's possible weakness with Song Chengjie just now, but now he suddenly received bad news from the four elders who stayed in the imperial capital, even the young and promising Venerable couldn't recover from such a sudden blow.

Although Hayato on the side didn't know what news came from the imperial capital, he also frowned when he looked at Venerable Huyan's appearance, and it was probably not a trivial matter to make him so shocked.

After waiting quietly for a while, habitually touching his pocket, Hayato remembered that his private collection had already been taken away by the sigh of the wind. Clearing his throat, he asked tentatively, "Your face is not very good, what's the matter, what's the news from the imperial capital?"

"Now, senior, I'...... What should I do after that?" slowly raised his head to look at Falato, and Venerable Huyan didn't know how to tell his feelings. The unprecedented fear had filled the state of mind that he had cultivated for many years, although through the induction of the five elements of self-discipline, he knew that at least Luo Yi was safe, but compared to this, his father, the head of the five elements organ, and even the entire imperial capital had been completely finished.

Taken aback by Huyan's expression, it was the first time that Hayato had seen him show this disillusioned appearance. Although the person in front of him is a child who is more than thirty years younger than himself, the name of the contemporary Venerable of the Five Elements Organ is not just a title, his state of mind should be on par with himself.

"In this way, something has happened to the Five Elements Organ. Again, he touched his empty pocket. Hayato didn't have the slightest intention of trying to persuade him, and asked bluntly, "How many people are still alive?"

After hearing this, Venerable Huyan gritted his teeth, his clenched fists trembled slightly, and he refused to say the answer that had been told in his heart.

"Tell me how many people are still alive!" looked at Venerable Huyan, who was unexpectedly silent. Hayato slammed the table at him and said in a voice that almost shouted, "Are you still the Venerable One, do you want to escape from reality!

Suddenly startled, looking at Hayato in a daze, Huyan Venerable's somewhat unfocused eyes became clear again.

As if he had experienced a test of life and death, Venerable Huyan couldn't help but take two steps back and gasp to wipe away the fine beads of sweat oozing from his forehead in the blink of an eye, and said with palpitations: "Thank you seniors, I almost lost my mind and lost in sorrow." ”

"Don't thank me, humanity is at a critical juncture. If something really happens to the Five Elements Organ, you, as a Venerable, can't afford to miss a single bit. He waved his hand casually, and was secretly relieved to see that Venerable Huyan had regained his senses, "What, what happened?"

"Hey. The Five Elements Organ was destroyed. Sighing and finding a place to sit down, Venerable Huyan had a gloomy face, "I just received news from the four elders. Among the elders, only he and the second elder escaped, and only three of the elites of the five major families were taken out of the main center by them. Now the entire Five Elements Organ does not count the people who were sent abroad and escaped this catastrophe, and the elite of the General Pivot only survived less than a hundred. Not only that, but the imperial capital ...... The imperial capital has also been affected, and it is estimated that there will not be too many survivors. ”

Hearing this answer, it was Hayato's turn to be shocked.

The Five Elements Organ has stood for eternity, and it is better to accept it if he has suffered heavy losses. But this is simply ruined, and the meaning of these three words is completely beyond his imagination. Even the survivors of the Five Elements Mechanism are only more than a hundred elites, and Hayato can guess what the imperial capital will look like now, not to mention civilians, I'm afraid there are not even a few people left in the leadership.

"Who did it...... It can make the Five Elements Mechanism like this. I'm afraid it's unlikely with human means, right?" Hayato thought about it, although the Dongying Yin-Yang Juku, which was close to the Chinese Federation, had this ambition, but if they really wanted to go to the Five Elements Agency, they might not get any benefit.

Which of the eight organizations is easy to mess with?

"The seniors are really sharp. I don't have much to hide now. An evil spirit is suppressed in the headquarters of the Five Elements Organ, which is said to have been born together with the spiritual veins of the imperial capital. And this accident was caused by it, and if nothing else, it was only the obsession that it spread that caused it. After all, even if the master and they guarded the seal day and night, this kind of thing would never be preventable. ”

"Evil spirits?" Hayato knew a little more about these things than the other Shield of Justice people, after all, he was also a member of the Onmyojuku before, "I haven't heard this word in a long time. Could it be that the Five Elements Mechanism has been silently suppressing a powerful evil spirit all along, and it can do such a thing with just the obsession it exudes, and if it sees the light of day, it will be a great disaster. Why don't you go to other organizations for help with this kind of thing?"

There are many kinds of obsessions of evil spirits, but Hayabusa can roughly guess that the ones that are scattered should be the kind that can be possessed, and the idea of evil spirits is probably to break the seal with the help of the possessed person.

Venerable Huyan shook his head, sighed and said: "It's not that I don't want to find other people to help, it's just that the spirit veins of the imperial capital have been infected by that evil spirit since ancient times, and the environment is extremely harsh, even if I can't last a few hours in it, this is still the premise of constantly using the spirit vein spiritual power to wash the essence and cut the essence." Letting others in rashly would only increase casualties, and it would even disturb the qi in the spiritual veins and affect the seal. ”

"Is the Imperial Capital Spirit Vein such a sinister place...... Isn't it rumored that it is the place where the masters of the Five Elements Organ have cultivated for generations, could it be that the fake news that can be spread can be spread in order to prevent others from entering by mistake?"

"Exactly. There are no monks in the spiritual veins who have cultivated in the past, and some are people who have spent their lives on the matter of protecting the seal. Speaking of this, Venerable Huyan sighed heavily, after all, the masters and ancestors of the past generations had paid so much, but after all, they could not completely destroy the evil spirit. "Senior, this time I plan to rush back overnight, there is such a big thing in the imperial capital, I still go back to see if I have a bottom in my heart. ”

Nodding, Hayato was about to say something else when the phone rang again. Glancing at Venerable Huyan and motioning for him to wait for himself first, Hayato skillfully took the phone and said, "The Zhongzhou Branch of the Shield of Justice." Excuse me?"

On the other end of the phone, a slightly anxious voice came into Hayato's ears: "Hu Suo, the head of the Taishan Mansion Branch of the Five Elements Organ, look for Venerable Huyan." ”

On the other side, Song Chengjie lay on the roof and looked at the night sky with stars gradually rising, and sighed melancholy.

"I'm sighing again. Is that woman named Sakurako Qiao Cang really that dangerous?" A gust of wind blew by, and the figure of the sigh of the wind appeared beside him, holding his face with one hand and curling his hair with the other, looking very bored, "You have been getting busier and busier these two days. It's not about practicing or dealing with all kinds of things, so can you only think of my existence when you're fighting?"

As if he was suddenly angry while speaking, Fengzhi sighed and pulled off a few of his hairs with a flick of his fingers, and rubbed Song Chengjie's head with his little hands angrily.

"A painful sigh. Shaking his head and resisting, Song Chengjie had to admit that even at this time, he still didn't care much about the machine spirit around him, but was thinking more about how to fight Qiao Cang Sakura, "I'm sorry to sigh, but as the leader of Hongchuan, I can't help but think about that." ”

Raised his eyes to look at the blonde girl beside him with a small mouth. Song Chengjie still felt that the band-aid around her neck was a little eye-catching. Not only has he spent a lot less time with her recently, but he has hurt her more than once after gaining the power of the blood clan. Speaking of which, it's really strange that this guy can still be so happy pestering himself now.

"Hey, don't just stare at someone all of a sudden. Under Song Chengjie's gaze, Feng Zhizhi sighed a little embarrassed, "I'm your master, occasionally ...... Occasionally, I can spend time alone with you. ”

"Having said all this, isn't it sister, you want to be alone with the Lord, and you want the Lord to accompany you. I think the Lord can understand it more clearly when he said it directly at the beginning. A dark shadow flashed by. Hei Yao yawned and stood on the other side of Song Chengjie, and glanced at Feng Zhi with a sigh, "Lord, the moonlight is quite good today, I'll go play for a while." ”

"Hey, Black Yao. You come back for me!" Feng Zhi sighed and shouted at Hei Yao, who had already flown into the distance, turned his head to look at Song Chengjie, and snorted lightly and looked into the distance, "It's not that I want you to accompany me as she said, it's just that as a master, I think I need to know more about the state of the servant." ”

Raising his hand to gently pat the head of Fengzhi's sigh, Song Chengjie has long been accustomed to her words: "Okay, well, as a servant, I won't think about those miscellaneous things for the time being." ”

was patted on the head at the beginning, and Feng Zhi sighed a little unhappy, but after a while, he smiled like a cat who was looking for the owner to be coquettish and then had his chin scratched, and he didn't let go of Song Chengjie's hand.

"By the way, does the wound still hurt?" As he spoke, Song Chengjie's fingers dodged the smooth blonde hair, and ran a band-aid along the cheek of Fengzhi's sigh to the band-aid on her neck, and gently dotted on it. In the past few days, the sigh of the wind has been trying his best to make him unable to see this wound, and it is really difficult to touch it like this, "Sure enough, there is a blood clan technique in it, it will still be very uncomfortable, right?"

His body trembled slightly, and he wanted to dodge, but after hesitating for a moment, the sigh of the wind was relieved.

Shaking his head, Feng Zhi sighed and looked at those eyes full of care and worry, and smiled slightly: "I wanted to bear this alone, but I neglected the person I was supposed to rely on as a machine spirit. Fortunately, your servant has not been with me for a short time, otherwise I am afraid that my momentary willfulness will eventually create a gap between us. ”

"Eh, can it be so serious......" You sat up in surprise, and Song Chengjie slapped her head again, "So you should actually rely on me, or the two of us should rely on each other." Now that it's up to you, you don't have to avoid me anymore, and don't take it to heart, I know you're actually afraid of me guilty. ”

Speaking of this, Song Chengjie was more afraid. He didn't know when the blood in his body would go berserk, and he didn't know if he would hurt others the next time he went berserk, but there were so many things these days that he didn't have much time to think about these relatively unimportant things.

"Lord, my master has done things that I can't imagine that you, as a servant, can really see through them. ”

"So be it. ”

On the top of the tower, Jiang Chengjie slowly moved the telescope facing the two of them, anyway, it is not himself who is really keeping vigil here, and standing on a high place at night is just a habit left by himself when he was a mercenary before: "If the wounded don't pay attention to rest, even the machine spirit will leave hidden dangers." ”

"How did you know I was here?" Hearing Jiang Chengjie say this, Hei Yao simply stopped hiding his figure and came out, watching him pack up the tools used for the vigil one by one, "Human, what do you think of machine spirits?"

"Machine Spirit......" After packing up his things, Jiang Chengjie casually found a place to sit down, took the spear that had been with him for a long time from behind, and wiped it by the moonlight, "Although I haven't seen anything else, at least I think you two are the type who is not frank enough." If you want to stay by his side and pester him with another person, you will only make him think more and more that you are used to this. ”

Biting his lip and lowering his head slightly, Hei Yao twisted his body and swung the corner of his skirt without speaking.

Seeing her like this, Jiang Chengjie sighed in his heart, these two guys are really carved out of the same mold, and there is really no difference between this appearance.

"Forget it, I really don't know about you anyway. Pulling up the bolt of the gun and gesturing, Jiang Chengjie looked at the spear in his hand as if he was looking at his lover, but he himself didn't seem to notice this, "Sure enough, I still don't want to have anything to do with religious groups." ”

"I ...... Actually, I want to stay there, but every time I see my sister's wounds, I always feel that I shouldn't stay there. ”

Raising his eyes and looking at Hei Yao, Jiang Chengjie blinked and devoted himself to the maintenance of firearms again: "Actually, if the machine is spiritual, I think there should be no difference from people from a certain angle, just like this gun in my hand, although it has no spirituality, but I know that it must like me to maintain it." Children like to pester adults, lovers like to pester each other, and machine spirits like to pester their masters, so it should be nothing. It's just that you're thinking too much. ”

"Really?"

"Really. (To be continued.) )
