Chapter 62: A Succession of Tasks
The first episode of the birth of Beibatian ended in this chapter.,The next two or three days may be stopped.,You need to think about the following plot.,Plus there is a more important thing to deal with in these two days.。 So please forgive me. "Demon Seed?" Qiao Feng scratched the back of his head, this term felt very familiar to him, as if he had heard it somewhere.
"yes, do you remember the first time you saw me and the Nether?" said the Phantom.
"First time...... Ahh ”
"Yes. Miss Tanabata nodded, "But I'm sorry, it's not on me, the demon seed was eaten by me." ”
“...... Why do you eat everything, a snacker?"
"When I ate it, I didn't know it was a demon seed. Miss Tanabata stared at her big round eyes and said innocently.
"So...... Who's going to explain to me what the hell is a demon seed?"
"This starts from hundreds of years ago......"
Hundreds of years ago, when the first generation of dragon messengers appeared, there was some turmoil in this time and space, which led to the leakage of the power of some laws, forming six demon seeds. Each of these six demon seeds represents a law, strength, defense, speed, intelligence, space, and time.
But no one knows what these demon seeds look like, because they don't have a fixed appearance. So for many years, although the dragon clan who knew the inside story had been looking for the demon seed, but after so many years, they only found one. Moreover, this demon seed was also stolen by the Black Dragon Clan when the Black Dragon Clan rebelled.
Before the Black Dragon Rebellion, the Dragon Emperor at that time, the little white dragon whose soul was hidden in the Dragon Emperor's scales at this time, had actually found a little clue to the second demon seed. Unfortunately, before he could find the demon seed, the dragon clan rebelled.
Later, the demon seed was encountered by Miss Tanabata by chance, and then it was eaten by her who was curious for a while.
So much so that later, when the Evil Fire Phoenix Emperor chased and killed Miss Qixi, Miss Qixi was able to break through the space and come to the time and space where Qiao Feng was. What happened later must have been known to everyone.
"So, no one has really been able to use the power of the demon seed yet?"
After listening to Mr. Rubik's Cube after taking a history lesson, Qiao Feng asked.
"No, I don't know anything else, but now it's at least certain that this girl can definitely exert the power of the demon seed, at least partially. Mr. Rubik's Cube pointed at Miss Tanabata and said.
"Hey, don't talk nonsense without evidence, be careful that I sue you for slander!" Miss Tanabata refused to admit it, and deliberately twisted her head to the side not to look at Mr. Rubik's Cube.
"In short, Qiao Feng, it is your task to collect the demon seed. ”
"Huh?"
"There is no need to doubt, the task of collecting demon seeds was left by the first generation of dragon messengers, so you, as the dragon messenger of the reserves, naturally have to shoulder this task. ”
"Okay...... Feelings, this is my task!" Qiao Feng pouted.
"No, more than that. You also have a responsibility to mediate the dispute between the dragons. ”
“...... Alas. Qiao Feng sighed, "Okay, the tasks are heavier than the other, anyway, there are many skills and I don't need to press down, I took it, is there anything else?"
"Don't worry about anything else, it's good that you can do these two things. After all, the first three generations of dragon envoys combined only found two demon seeds. As for the dispute of the dragon clan, don't worry, I will guide you to find some helpers, as for whether you can convince them, it depends on your ability. ”
"Helper?" Qiao Feng came to his senses when he heard this, "What helper?"
"Now is not the time to tell you, anyway, you will know sooner or later, so why rush?"
"Okay, if you come here again, can't you make it clear all at once?" Qiao Feng pursed his lips with an impatient expression.
"Don't forget, you also promised Gu Tao to help him take revenge. Yu Sanshui floated by with a cup of freshly brewed coffee, and dropped a bad news by the way.
"Oh my God, I almost forgot I said yes. Qiao Feng helplessly covered his face with his hands.
"I have good news, do you want to hear it?" Mr. Rubik's Cube looked at Qiao Feng like this, and said with a smile.
"What's the good news?" Qiao Feng looked up from between his hands and looked at Mr. Rubik's Cube.
"According to the secret investigation of the Netherworld Clan, it seems that the Frost Gate has some connection with the Black Dragon Clan, and it ...... I have a hunch that the demon seed should be in their hands. ”
"Aha! That's great news. Qiao Feng rolled his eyes and looked at Mr. Rubik's Cube, "Doesn't this still have to let me solve this matter?"
"Yes, you can't refuse your task, but now that the three things are connected, it will save you some effort. ”
"Cut, standing and talking doesn't hurt your back. Qiao Feng glanced at Mr. Rubik's Cube.
"Oh, don't worry! With Miss Ben here, why don't you have to solve all the problems obediently?" Miss Tanabata said indifferently.
"You also don't have back pain when you stand and talk. Qiao Feng glanced at Miss Qixi again.
"Bold, you slave, you dare to beg for mercy!"
"Ahh
Finally let go of the eldest lady of Qixi Festival, Qiao Feng rubbed his ears and asked curiously: "I said eldest miss, what does the space demon seed you saw look like?"
"It looks like a fruit on a tree! I ate it when it was so beautiful that I ate it, and then I found that my magic source had mutated. ”
“...... Good guy, what you said is so easy, aren't you afraid that the fruit is poisonous?" Qiao Feng had a black line.
"Oh, it doesn't matter, isn't this all over~"
“...... Take your liking. ”
As soon as the matter was explained, Qiao Feng heard someone knocking on the door. Yu Sanshui, who was closest to the door, opened the door with his hand. Standing outside the door was Zhai Canliang.
"What's wrong?
"It's not a big deal, just come over and see if you're done. A group of people are still waiting for you at the teahouse. ”
"What are you waiting for us to do?"
"I don't know, the city lord is also over there, it seems that there is something to explain. ”
"Tell me? Why? I'm not one of his men. ”
"Oh, let's go, hurry up, after all, they are the city lords, and if we want to continue to develop outside, we have to deal with the officials, so let's have a good relationship first." ”
"Alas...... I thought that the local class of your union system was not so obvious, who would have thought that there would be a special change of soup and not medicine, which is different from the state system?"
"Oh, it's been many years since the imperial system was abolished, and the people are free to speak, so don't spit out this slot, let's go!"
"Okay. Qiao Feng nodded, then shouted twice, and called out the two little guys, Huo Miao and Lei Er, these two little guys didn't go out with him in the morning. As for Moang, he is still sleeping at this time, this little guy has always looked like he has been sleep-deprived lately, and according to Mr. Rubik's Cube, it seems that the source of magic is about to be developed. If it goes well, after this period of time, Mo Ang will be able to try to fuse with Qiao Feng.
"Let's go, second general!" Qiao Feng beckoned, letting the two little guys follow him. In these years, you can't show your identity when you go out to see an official without a bodyguard.
Behind the two little guys, Yu Sanshui, Jasmine and Zhai Canliang also followed out, and the phantom was still an old trick and got into Qiao Feng's shadow.
Although he was very unhappy in his heart, Qiao Feng really couldn't show it on his face. So when you arrive at the teahouse, you should still say hello and say hello.
"Yo, the lord of the castle is also here. ”
"Yes, Mr. Qiao, come and sit down, I'll be waiting for you. ”
Several tea tables in the teahouse were put together at this time, looking like a long conference table.
After Qiao Feng sat down, he looked around, and everyone sitting around him had seen it. The Fallen Leaf City Lord, Dong Wuxian, Tian Shuailing, Yang Heng, Li Deming, and Sun Hang, plus Qiao Feng, who came later, were exactly ten people.
"I don't know what the city lord summoned me to discuss this time?" After taking a seat, Qiao Feng asked politely.
"I don't dare to say summons, I invite you here this time, mainly to inform you of a task assigned by the Jianghu Alliance. Of course, it's up to you to decide whether you take it or not, after all, the Dragon Messenger is the representative of the dragon clan among the humans. ”
As soon as City Lord Dong said this, Qiao Feng suddenly felt strange.
"How do you know...... I'm a dragon bringer? I don't think I told anyone about it. Qiao Feng narrowed his eyes and looked at City Lord Dong.
"Hehe, you don't have to be like this, as the city lord of Fallen Leaf City, I naturally need to know the identity of the residents in my jurisdiction. But rest assured, this is only known to those of you here. ”
"yes, okay then. Qiao Feng nodded, "What is the task?"
"The task is for me to work with you to track down the mastermind behind this matter, if it really involves the Tianshuang Gate...... The alliance leader is afraid that they will have some kind of moth during the martial arts conference. Therefore, we need to find out the whole story of this matter in advance, so that we can be fully prepared. Tian Shuailing picked up the conversation and said.
"Well, yes, I'll take it, and I'm bored to stay at home all day anyway. Qiao Feng agreed without thinking about it, there was a master to help him not to do it in vain, anyway, he had to investigate this matter.
"Well, we'll talk about the specific actions in private. Tian Shuailing was silent after saying this.
"Okay, in that case, the first thing of the day is settled. ”
"First, what else?"
"Yes, the second thing has to do with the Gai Gang. The Gai Gang has now selected the master of the gang, but the various positions have not yet been registered, and Li Deming and Li Gang have just won the title of Beibatian, so it is still necessary for us to set up a banquet to inform the managers of Fallen Leaf City about this matter. ”
"Oh, that's it, then you can just explain it to Li Deming directly. I don't care about that. ”
"Well, okay. Then there are a few more people who want to join the Gai Gang, so you can't ignore this matter. ”
"Huh?
"Because they are all applying for the position of the Dharma Protector of the Gai Gang, this position needs you, the Great Dharma Protector, to make a decision. ”
"Oh, it turns out that the Great Dharma Protector still has this job. Who is going to apply?"
"It's just a few of you. ”
As soon as Dong Chengzhu's voice fell, Dong Wuxian, Yang Heng and Sun Hang all raised their hands.
"You all have to apply, what, how many Dharma protectors can be recruited?" Qiao Feng turned his head and asked City Lord Dong.
"Well, it's up to you. ”
"Well, let's all come on, anyway, when we're short of manpower. ”
As soon as Qiao Feng's side made a decision, the city lord Dong was busy filling out the form, and the matter was basically settled.
"By the way, Dong Wuxian, what about your ornament?" After the matter of the city lord Dong was finished, Qiao Feng suddenly remembered that this kid still had something suspected of being a demon seed in his hand.
"Do you mean this?" Dong Wuxian took out the piece of ornament that he didn't know if it was jade or agate from his clothes.
"yes, where did you get it?"
"It was sold at auction! The one who sold it seems to be a tomb robber. Dong Wuxian said, took off the ornament around his neck and handed it to Qiao Feng.
Qiao Feng took this thing, looked left and right, and didn't see anything special about this thing, but he had to get this thing back now.
"It's come to this, I won't hide it from you, this thing is very likely to be an item lost by the dragon clan, so ......"
"Oh, I know! It's not a problem! If the organization needs it, I'm sure I'm going to turn it in." Dong Wuxian said very simply. In fact, it's not that he's generous, it's just that he really can't control this thing. The last time he blessed this thing, he only made one move, and he was close to collapse, so he really didn't have much nostalgia for this thing.
"Okay, then I'm welcome!" Qiao Feng nodded and put this thing away.
"Is there anything else?" After putting away the accessories, Qiao Feng looked at the people present.
Everyone shook their heads in unison.
"Then let's all disperse!" Qiao Feng said, and stood up and walked out.
After returning home, under the appraisal of Mr. Rubik's Cube and Miss Tanabata, it was quickly determined that this fast ornament was the demon seed that represented the law of strength.
The next day, Qiao Feng discussed the future plan with Tian Shuailing, Qiao Feng told Tian Shuailing about the mirage tracking Wang Zhen, and finally the two discussed and decided to wait for the mirage's news first.
At noon, Dong Wuxian chartered Yusheng Zhai and invited celebrities from all walks of life in Fallen Leaf City to a banquet, which can be regarded as the name of the steward gang of the Gai Gang in Falling Leaf City. The title of Li Deming, the New Taipei Batian, also spread throughout the entire Fallen Leaf City within a day, and everything seemed so harmonious.
In the city of fallen leaves, everything is moving in a joyful atmosphere. And in the northernmost place that was almost accessible to the people of the Northern Cold Alliance, a piece of solid ice was broken out of the iceberg by a certain force. In the solid ice, the shadow of a person faintly appeared. The man seemed to have a long sword in his hand.
"Go back and report to the helper, the mission has been accomplished. A man who had covered himself like a dumpling commanded his men.
"Yes, Elder!"
"Elder Ge, you have done a great job this time!"
The Northern Cold Alliance, in a secret laboratory. On the bench lay a young man covered in ice ballast. The man's brows were furrowed, his eyes were closed, and he seemed to be lifeless. The man is not very tall, but he looks stocky. He still held a long sword in his hand, but the sword was already covered with cracks, as if it was about to shatter at any moment.
"Don't dare, don't dare!" Elder Na Ge said modestly, "If it weren't for the Helper's clever plan, we wouldn't have been able to find this peerless sword god who became famous a hundred years ago." ”
"Elder Ge is humble, I just got a little bit of news, I didn't expect to really find it. ”
"It's just, helper...... There's one thing I don't know if I should talk about or not?"
"But it doesn't hurt to say it!"
"You...... Are you really sure that you can resurrect this peerless sword god and use it for you?"
"Hehe, Elder Ge doesn't have to worry about this problem, I have my own plans. ”
"So I won't ask any more. Elder Ge stood aside with his hands down, and said no more.
And the man who was called the helper stared at the man lying on the laboratory table without saying a word, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Back to the gang leader, there is a secret message from the base of the Dongzhou Alliance waiting to be processed. ”
A small, masked, black-clad man dressed as an assassin jumped out of nowhere.
"Oh, from the Northern Protector?"
"Yes. ”
"Access. The gang leader said lightly.
I saw that the man in black took out a round ball from his arms and threw it gently. The sphere seemed to float in mid-air as if it had a magnetic force that repelled the ground.
Several lasers flashed, and a translucent phantom appeared in place. This figure is Wang Zhen.
"What's the matter, my Northern Protector?" the gang leader smiled kindly, but there was no trace of a smile in his eyes. This is very similar to Wang Zhen.
But Wang Zhen couldn't keep that hypocritical smile anymore at this time, and his face was ugly.
"Back to the helper, when I was testing the medicine...... There was a little bit of an accident. Wang Zhen said with a look of shame.
"Oh, what's wrong with the base?"
"The base is in perfect condition. ”
"Oh, that's good. What about you? Have you lost your strength?"
"Xie Gang Master cares, the little one is fine. Wang Zhen replied with a cold face.
"That's good, Northern Protector, if something happens to the base...... You know the consequences!" The gang leader laughed coldly, and then said: "I will send someone to give you the new medicine, the plan remains the same, this time, don't make any mistakes." ”
After saying this, the video transmission was disconnected by the gang leader.
And Wang Zhen stood in place, his eyes uncertain. He is well aware of the style of the gang leader, and if his strength is damaged, I am afraid he will not hesitate to find someone to replace his place. Hmph, if you are unkind, then don't blame me for being unjust!
Outside the window, it was already windy, the snowflakes had begun to fall, and the Spring Festival was approaching.
