Chapter 68: Underground Hunt and Kill Order
There is a mysterious underground organization in Huangzhou City, called "Rebellion Hall", and it is rumored that the hall master is a dream honor, but no one has ever seen him. In fact, the one who is really in charge of the church is the deputy hall master, a late-stage dream king.
Since ancient times, darkness has coexisted with light. There will always be some things in this world that can't be put on the table and done in a bright way!
"Don't ask about your identity! Collect money and do things! Maintain strict confidentiality!" This is the purpose that the Rebellion Hall has been propagated to the outside world at the beginning of its establishment, and it is also the fundamental reason why it has existed and continued. For a long time, the reputation of the Rebellion Hall is excellent!
All those in the know know that the Rebellion Hall has set two strict restrictions on the tasks entrusted to it: the commission for the entrusted tasks shall not be less than one million dream coins;
Wanxiang Town, located in the southern suburbs of the Imperial City, is the most distinctive market town in the entire southern suburbs. It has a long history, and most of the houses are old-fashioned. The town is dotted with thousands of ancient laneways, which are intricate and irregular. Even residents who have lived here for many years can sometimes get dizzy.
The afternoon sky was slightly overcast, and in a remote and narrow alleyway, a man wearing a black drape-draping hat was stepping on a bluestone slab, walking hurriedly.
At the end of the alleyway there is a grocery store with a banner in front of the wooden window, and if you look closely, you will see a strange little pattern embroidered on it.
The man in the hat stopped at the door of the grocery store, raised his head slightly, stared at the floating curtain for a few moments, and then walked into the store with his legs raised.
"I'm looking for an entrance to hell!" the man's voice sounded a little old.
The owner of the grocery store was an old man with cloudy eyes, sitting quietly on a wicker chair drinking tea. When I saw someone coming in, I didn't say hello, and when I heard the other person talking, I got up from the chair in a hurry.
"How much money do you have to buy a road to hell?"
"Is 10 million Dream Coins enough?" replied in a low voice.
"Come with me. The shopkeeper hunched over and walked towards the back room. The man in the hat hesitated for a moment, and then stepped forward.
The room in the middle was not large, and an oil lamp was lit on a half-old wooden table, and the space inside the room was a little dark. In the west corner of the room, against the wall stood a closet more than half a foot high. The rickety old man walked over slowly, easily removed the closet, and a white curtain appeared behind it.
"Follow the passage to the end, and someone will lead you to the steward. The old man raised his hand as he spoke, lifting the curtain, revealing a glimmering passage behind him.
"It's hard work!" said the man in the hat, and stepped forward into the passage.
After the man entered the dark passage, the rickety old man moved the closet back to its original place, and then took out a piece of rune paper, and with a clip of two fingers, the rune paper disappeared without a trace. Then he turned and walked out of the back room.
The passage is more than one person high, half a zhang wide, and every ten zhang away there is a small luminous stone, although the light is slightly weak, but it is enough to see the road ahead. The man in the hat walked unhurriedly through the crooked passageway, and after about a stick of incense, after turning a corner to the left, a wooden door appeared in front of him.
The man in the hat cautiously pushed open the door and found that the exit was a closed hut with no windows. Under the illumination of the luminous stone, I saw a middle-aged man sitting cross-legged on the bed, looking at himself with a cold gaze.
"I'm looking for your steward. ”
"Go in, just keep walking. The middle-aged man tilted his head slightly and said lightly.
"Thank you!" the man in the hat didn't say much, and took a few steps forward to push open another door in the room, and stepped behind the door. It turned out to be a long, narrow and straight corridor, with hard walls on the left and right, and a cloud of light could be seen at the end of the corridor.
It wasn't long before a large rotunda appeared in front of the man, and hundreds of glow-in-the-dark stones illuminated the hall as bright as the open air. It was a quiet environment, and there were a total of nine bright and dark exits throughout the hall. In the center of the hall was a long stone table, surrounded by a dozen chairs draped in exotic furs, and on the north chair sat a man in a red robe.
"After half a month of idleness, I finally had a guest come to the door. Please be seated!" the red-robed man sat on the chair and did not move, but raised his hand to signal, with a smile on his face.
The man in the hat did not show a trace of dissatisfaction, let alone make a sound, but walked straight to the south end of the stone table and sat down on the soft chair.
"Your Excellency is the steward of the Rebellion Hall?"
"Yes, I'm the manager of the Southern Suburbs Branch. What is your mission?" replied the red-robed man with a sincere expression.
"Ten million to buy a human life, this person only has the realm of a dreamwalker, and there are two companions by his side, it should be a dream maniac and a sword maniac. As for the two people who were traveling with them, if they could be killed, they would be worth a million each. At present, they are rushing to the Qianren volcanic group. The old man's voice came out clearly through the black curtain hanging from the hat.
"Spend 10 million to buy a Dream Walker's life? Such a big sum can already invite a late Dream King, is it ......" The red-robed man stretched out his right hand, his fingers tapping lightly on the table, his eyes unabashedly curious.
"Although the realm of those three people is not high, it is by no means comparable to ordinary cultivators of the same level. The reason why I paid so much money is just that I hope you can make sure that you can complete the task!" The man in the hat said with a slight dissatisfaction.
"This friend can definitely rest assured! 10 million can already issue a lowest-level 'underground hunt and kill order'. I'll send out all the idle dreamers, and at least one early dream king. The red-robed man looked straight and said seriously.
As soon as the man in the hat raised his hand, an extra roll of drawing paper appeared in his palm and placed it on the table, "This is the person's appearance, don't be mistaken!"
The red-robed man smiled lightly, and grabbed his hand at the opposite side, and the scroll flew into his hand in the air. After opening the roll paper and looking at it a few times, the red-robed man looked up and asked, "Is there anything you want to add at the end?"
"I just hope that your church can successfully complete the task! This is a deposit of five million. The man in the hat took out a space bag and threw it at the opposite side.
The red-robed man took the space bag and threw a special wooden card to the man with a hat with a big "inverse" on it.
"Don't lose it, we'll get back to you with any news. If there is no problem, your friend can leave by himself through the exit in the northeast corner, and someone will give you a drop-off. The red-robed man said with a smile.
――――――――――
At dusk, the colorful sunset fills most of the sky, and it looks very beautiful, and the afterglow of the setting sun dyes the small hill with a hazy gold.
This is a lonely dirt mountain, an anomaly that suddenly emerges from the plains, standing on the top of the hill and looking into the distance, forming a long straight line at the end of the line of sight.
There was only a tall lone tree growing on the huge hill, and Bian Yao stood on a branch, looking up at the western sky, his face covered in gold was full of joy.
"I'm not leaving tonight! After so many days of driving, it is rare to encounter a hill. The girl sat down on the other branch, dangling her feet, and shouted with joy on her face.
The young man in black stood silently under the tree, leaning against the trunk of the tree, quietly watching the beautiful scenery of the sunset.
Half an hour later, twilight covered the land, and darkness was approaching.
Next to a pile of rocks, the three of them each chose a place to sit down, and took out the spirit fruit to eat. At that moment, a black dot appeared in the western sky, which was gradually approaching in the direction of the hill.
About a moment later, a familiar voice was faintly heard in the night sky - "quack~", the crow crow. As it approached, the sound was low, but still clear.
The faces of the three of them changed suddenly, and at the same time, they raised their heads and looked into the night sky, only to see a black shadow flying and hovering above their heads.
"Why is there still one!" the girl shouted.
"I guessed more than one. Bian Yao whispered to himself.
"Bastard, guess why you didn't say it earlier!" the girl ran to Bian Yao's side in two steps, and raised her hand to pat him on the head.
"What's the hurry! Anyway, with your brother here, just hit a sword qi and solve it. Bian Yao glared at her sideways and said dissatisfied.
"I can't do it!" The sword qi is limited by distance, and the altitude at which this crow flies is beyond my ability. And even if it was within the reach of the sword qi, but now that it was dark, the accuracy would be affected and reduced. The black-clothed young man glanced at Bian Yao and said coldly.
"That's trouble! As it stands, even if we can kill this crow, there may be a third one later. Bian Yao lowered his head and groaned.
The girl thought for a moment, until the crow flew away towards the west, and then she spoke: "It's a big deal to delay a little time and kill all those people!" After speaking, she turned her head to look at her brother who was silent, "What do you say?"
The young man in black let out a "hmm" and did not raise any objections.
When Bian Yao heard this, he immediately became anxious, "You don't know who are chasing after you, how can you take this risk! They are coming at me, I can use my dream clone to lure them away." ”
Although he is not familiar with the two sisters and brothers, he can't talk about much friendship, and he doesn't have much affection for them, but Bian Yao doesn't want them to have any accidents because of his own involvement. In his mind, aside from the fact that the girl had saved his life, he couldn't take this risk just by virtue of the identity of the sister and brother!
"It's none of your business! Dead boy, we're not doing this for you. Since they are in hot pursuit, it is time for me to practice my hands. The girl's tone changed suddenly, and excitement surged out inexplicably.
Bian Yao paused, wanting to continue to speak to stop it, but finally held back. He knew very well in his heart that since the two sisters and brothers had reached an agreement, he, an outsider, could not change their decision with just a few pale words of persuasion!
"Dead boy, it's useless for you to stay here, and you're going to distract us from taking care of it. You go straight east from here now, and we'll catch up with you when we get out of trouble. The girl suddenly turned her head to look at Bian Yao and said to him with a smile.
Hearing this, Bian Yao was stunned for a moment, thought for a moment, and asked, "Can you guarantee that you won't fall into a dangerous situation?"
"Don't worry, don't worry, there will be no big danger!" the girl waved at him, her face full of confidence and discare.
Seeing this, Bian Yao didn't say anything more, stood up silently, packed up his things, and walked slowly towards the bottom of the hill.
