Chapter 22: The Man Behind the Scenes
In the wide hall, everyone sat around the fire, looking at the meat pieces roasting on the fire, many people swallowed saliva unconsciously, and after many tosses, everyone was obviously hungry!
Wang Dalang, Wang Erlang, Dong Xiaoming and the four hackers kept flipping the simple barbecue grill, and the oil that was roasted on the meat pieces fell on the fire one by one, making the flames even more violent.
The doorway to the hall slowly grew brighter, brighter and brighter, until a huge head poked in, twitching its nose and staring at the pieces of meat that were roasting over the fire.
Opposite the gate is the traditional lord seat, which should be the highest status at the table.
Now sitting are the Tsing Yi people and the Taoist Chief, they are the backbone of this group of people, and no one can ignore the role of the two.
The people in Tsing Yi are explosive in combat effectiveness, and they are the confidence for everyone to stay in this exotic space, and the organization and coordination of the Taoist are also indispensable.
The two of them looked at the giant beast that suddenly appeared, and they were a little stunned, and they both looked at each other incredulously, as if they didn't believe what they saw with their eyes.
As the backbone and leader, naturally every move will be noticed by everyone, and when they saw the two staring into the distance with surprise on their faces, everyone turned their heads to follow their gaze to the door.
Not everyone can be as calm as the two of them, but fortunately, the Forget Worry Dao Chief reacted quickly enough to throw a piece of meat at the giant beast before everyone screamed.
In the face of the deliciousness, the giant beast opened its mouth excitedly to catch it, ignoring and listening to the people who were screaming in surprise, and just concentrated on enjoying the deliciousness.
This is exactly what happened before, Zhao Yingshuang, Eleven Lang, David and Gu Shang, the giant beast that the five of them encountered, when the five of them faced such a huge creature, they chose to retreat without a fight and flee in the wilderness.
Although after coming back, he also mentioned many times that this 20-meter by 20-meter passage was almost completely occupied, but everyone thought that they were looking for a place for themselves, and deliberately exaggerated the facts.
When the giant beast really appeared, in the face of this giant beast with a huge body and burning flames all over its body, everyone felt short of breath, as if they couldn't breathe, and this sense of oppression was too strong!
Everyone now understands the original choice of the five people, if they didn't know that there was no road behind them, there would be many people who wanted to escape.
The giant beast took a few more steps forward, and everyone could feel a wave of heat coming, and many of them were already on their feet.
Fortunately, he was clever, and directly threw the pieces of meat on the shelf one by one at the giant beast, and the giant beast was like a puppy raised at home, and obediently opened its mouth to catch it one by one, but with such a huge size, this kind of reaction made everyone very uncomfortable.
Two or three hundred catties of meat, it didn't take long for all to enter the belly of the giant beast, as soon as he saw that there was no meat on the shelf, the giant beast took two steps back, and everyone thought it was leaving, but they didn't expect this guy to lie directly on the ground, tilting his head and leaning against the door.
It's not enough! Everyone saw that the giant beast did not reflect the idea of attacking, and gradually adapted, on the other hand, if they didn't adapt, what could they do with the giant beast!
Now that the food has been eaten, and the guy who eats the mixed rice is still not leaving, it is obvious that he is not full!
Everyone can only continue to make meat and continue to roast, but there are also benefits, with such a big guy guarding the door, the safety is still very guaranteed!
Until this moment, the man in Tsing Yi was still a little incredulous, and said to the Taoist chief who forgot his worries: "No matter how this guy looks, he looks like a divine beast unicorn in ancient mythological stories. Look at the lion's head, antlers, tiger's eyes, elk's body, dragon scales, oxtail, all these physical features! ”
The description of the unicorn in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" is like this: its head is like a dragon, shaped like a horse, shaped like a deer, the tail is like an ox's tail, there are colorful hair patterns on the back, there are yellow hairs on the abdomen, the mouth can spit fire, and the voice is like thunder. ”
Translated into the vernacular, it means that the unicorn's head is like a dragon, with horns on its head, an overall shape like a horse, a deer-like spotted body, and a tail like a cow.
There are multicolored patterns on the back, and this multicolored pattern should describe the flame, from low temperature to high temperature, the color of the flame is constantly changing, the abdomen has golden scales, the mouth can spew fire, and the roar is as loud as thunder.
The huge and slightly cute guy in front of him is just like the ancients' description of the unicorn!
The Taoist Elder was also surprised, and said, "Yes! I miss you and I have lived for hundreds of years, and I never thought that in this world, there would really be a divine beast like a unicorn. It's no wonder they've never been seen before, and they are all in this exotic space. ”
The Taoist chief stood up and introduced the depictions and legends of the unicorn to everyone.
When I heard that this was the Qilin Divine Beast, everyone was amazed, and the atmosphere was not as tense as before!
Since it is a divine beast, and it is called "a benevolent beast that does not hurt flowers and plants" by the ancients, it is naturally no longer as afraid as before.
The people of Tsing Yi are also a little excited, as the creator of the three-dimensional space, they have not experienced anything!
Only this unicorn beast that he has never seen before can arouse some of his curiosity, and he wants to get in touch with it up close, but he is afraid that he will cause trouble, and he will not be able to cope with it, and it will affect everyone, after all, he is now subject to space limitations, and the energy he can exert is less than one thousandth of the usual one!
Unexpectedly, Zhao Yingshuang, this girl, was even more curious, and she actually took some leftover meat crumbs and slowly approached the Qilin, and when everyone found out, she had already walked in front of the Qilin.
I have to say that this Zhao Yingshuang is also a bold guy, even if he likes white confusion, after all, the girl's resistance to cute little animals is almost zero, but the unicorn is so huge, even if you like it, you can't be so casual, come forward?
Everyone didn't dare to act rashly, and they didn't even dare to shout at Zhao Yingshuang, for fear that they would disturb the unicorn and hurt the flower-like girl again!
Qilin didn't make any moves, just kept his eyes half-closed, watching Zhao Yingshuang slowly approach, maybe he didn't think it would pose any threat to it!
Bai Yu, who was standing on Zhao Yingshuang's shoulder before, hid in her arms at this time, and screamed "squeak" in her mouth, obviously protesting against the owner's attempt to get close to the Qilin, and was afraid of the flames on the Qilin's body, so although she protested, her voice became lower and lower, and she seemed to be a little afraid that the Qilin would hear it.
Zhao Yingshuang was also a little worried in her heart, she was not worried that the Qilin would hurt herself, but she was worried that the flames on the Qilin would not burn herself, until she stood in front of the Qilin, and she didn't feel the scorching temperature.
Qilin's control of the flames seems to have exceeded ordinary people's understanding, and as Zhao Yingshuang approached, the flames in the front half of Qilin's body became weaker and weaker, until they finally disappeared.
Zhao Yingshuang slowly raised her right hand, raised it in front of her eyes, and looked at the unicorn quietly, there was a piece of meat in her white palm, but the piece of meat was too small! The palm-sized flesh is estimated to be less than one of the Qilin's teeth, which makes everyone pinch a cold sweat for her.
This stupid girl should really be feeding cats and dogs in her own home!
To everyone's surprise, the unicorn actually lowered his head and licked it hard in Zhao Yingshuang's hands.
After that, an even more incredible scene happened, after eating the meat, Qilin actually rubbed her head against Zhao Yingshuang and rubbed it on her hand.
The unicorn's head is the size of a locomotive, and with a little force, there is no doubt that it will definitely be able to hit Zhao Yingshuang.
Everything here is ready to pick up people at any time, in fact, if it weren't for the fact that Dao Chang had been pulling his arm, he would have rushed up at the beginning to protect Zhao Yingshuang!
Zhao Yingshuang was like a ghost, touched the cheek of the unicorn, everyone's hearts tightened, and thought, "Girl, you really can't do iron with this guts, and you are too skilled to kick your nose and face!" ”
Qilin seemed to feel very comfortable, and actually sent his head to her, and then his chin rested directly on the ground!
Zhao Yingshuang, who found that the Qilin's cheeks were not hot, was like touching a beloved doll, hugging the Qilin's head, touching it left and right, like a curious baby, interested in Qilin everywhere.
In the end, he climbed directly onto the head of the unicorn, rode on the neck of the unicorn, and lay on the head of the unicorn.
Kicking her nose and face, Zhao Yingshuang really did it, and everyone wrote a big word "service" in their hearts.
Zhao Yingshuang is definitely not simple! From the three white bewildered to the divine beast unicorn, although others think that this girl is too reckless, but the Tsing Yi people and the Taoist who forget worries don't see it that way, she seems to be reckless on the surface, but in fact, every step is a bold temptation, careful verification.
It seems to be in danger, but in fact, there is no danger, more than 30 people have been tossing for so long, and in addition to food and water, the harvest is only scars and fatigue.
Only she unknowingly has three pets, and they are still pets with strong combat effectiveness, and if nothing else, it is difficult for this unicorn to escape from her palm.
Sadly, someone said: "Men can conquer women by conquering the whole world, and women only need to conquer men, and they can naturally conquer the whole world." ”
It can be added that women can also conquer divine beasts through their unique charm, and they can also achieve the goal of conquering the world.
This is also an ability that can accurately intervene, influence alien beasts and divine beasts, collect them for use, and constantly expand their team.
The man in Tsing Yi asked himself, although he himself was invincible and the creator, but he did not have this ability.
Thinking of this, the man in Tsing Yi looked at what was being pulled by the Taoist Elder of Forgetfulness, this is really a blessed person who is not busy!
This thing stood there, and he didn't do anything, but Bai Yu and Qilin also indirectly became his, who let Zhao Yingshuang's heart be on this thing!
Looking at what's going on, he shouldn't have thought of this layer yet, he definitely won't know what kind of surprise Zhao Yingshuang will bring him!
The unicorn over there didn't seem to care at all, Zhao Yingshuang rode on its neck, and even shook its head comfortably, looking happy.
Everyone is extremely jealous, what is going on? What about the mythical beasts that are good? Where does this look like a cold beast?
It's like a dog who likes to spoil with beautiful women, and the overall mutation in the painting style makes everyone can't bear to look at it directly!
Of course, having said that, although the Qilin was extremely gentle with Zhao Yingshuang, other people, including the people in Tsing Yi, still didn't dare to get too close to the Qilin, for fear of being attacked by the Qilin.
The meat pieces were roasted one after another, and everyone distributed most of the meat to the unicorn, which was fed by Zhao Yingshuang, and the rest of the meat was divided by everyone, although it was only roasted, and there were no condiments, but the hungry people, where do they still care about whether it is delicious or not, fill their stomachs first!
It's a hard meal.,Most of the food was eaten by rubbing rice.,Everyone is also helpless.,It's all about the protection of the unicorn.,Anyway, the monster.,No.,It's more meat.。
After eating, I simply arranged a few people to take turns to be on duty at night, because there were many people, everyone was worth an hour, and it would not affect the rest.
As for the mythical beast that finished the meal, it was lying on its stomach at the door of the hall, and there would be a snoring sound!
The hall gradually quieted down, everyone had worked hard for a busy day, although there was no time, but according to their own biological clock, it was time to rest.
Except for the night watch, everyone else slept by the fire, and the temperature in this hall was still a little low.
What's the matter, there is no such trouble, this will be he hugging Zhao Yingshuang, leaning on the belly of the unicorn, and he can't feel a trace of chill.
The three white confusions also lay on the front legs of the unicorn, and everything seemed very warm and friendly.
The Tsing Yi Man and the Forgotten Sorrow Dao Chang sat in the far corner, not sleeping, they looked at the team sleeping by the fire, and the two people and the four beasts at the door.
The man in Tsing Yi whispered, "I don't know what will happen tomorrow?" How long can this last! ”
"You are starting to be compassionate again, and it will be very tiring to be a creator in this way, because you can't take care of everyone, even if you are the creator, you can't do it either." ”
The man in Tsing Yi smiled and said, "You are an old man, you still like to educate others so much!" I'm just saying it casually, but you're going to go online! ”
Instead of continuing to debate, he said, "What do you think of this incident? Why do I think it's weird everywhere? ”
The man in Tsing Yi turned pale and said: "One thing is for sure, it is unlikely that all this was deliberately arranged by people, but more by chance." ”
Forget the worries said: "Coincidentally, that may not be too coincidental!" ”
The man in Tsing Yi smiled and said, "Okay! You're the best at conspiracy theories, tell me, who do you suspect? ”
The Taoist Elder said disapprerovingly: "We have been extrapolating according to the time course before, and it turned out that He Xuliao was the cause of the whole thing. ”
After a pause, he continued: "Have you ever thought that things may be the opposite, and the person we ignore the most is the real cause of the matter, even the initiator and mastermind! ”
When the people in Tsing Yi heard this, they felt that their scalp was numb and their bodies were a little cold, and they had speculated that it was a series of reactions caused by He Xuliao. He Xuliao's background is simple, and there is no possibility that he is making trouble.
Now overturn the previous conclusion, then the background of others is not so simple!
"There may also be some planes that don't have time at all, or time is completely reversed. Also, don't you think she's acting abnormally? ”
The man in Tsing Yi said: "Do you mean Zhao Yingshuang? She's a bit eccentric, but there's no way she's got a mastermind. ”
Forget the worries and said: "In line with the principle of who profits, who is suspicious, Zhao Yingshuang is currently the only one who profits. ”
The man in Tsing Yi said: "You are wrong about this, when it comes to profit, what is the matter with Zhao Yingshuang's heart, which can't be hidden from our eyes." Her gain is what she gains, and what happens is your apprentice, then you are also the one who gains. ”
Forget the worries and said: "You and I both know what is really going on to enter He Xuliao's body!" And I have only cultivated one apprentice in hundreds of years. ”
The man in Tsing Yi said: "Speaking of this, I'm not unconvinced! You have worked hard to cultivate an apprentice, but you can't bear your luck! One apprentice has been transformed into two, and one is more powerful than the other! ”
Forget the worries and said: "That girl's treatment of Bai Chao and Qilin, you and I are amazed, it is not something that a 17-year-old girl can do at all!" ”
The man in Tsing Yi said: "You don't really doubt Zhao Yingshuang, right! ”
Forget the worries said: "It's completely possible! Speculating from her, things can be explained as well. ”
The thought of twenty or thirty big men, being played by a 17 or 8-year-old girl, the people in Tsing Yi shuddered.
Is the mastermind behind the scenes really Zhao Yingshuang?
