124. Antecedents

As the saying goes: 10,000 road idiots can walk out of 10,000 roads.

Some people say: There is no road in this world, and there are many road idiots, so there is naturally a road.

Although Old Tang usually looks very arrogant and heartless, his perception of himself is still very clear.

For example, the fact that he is actually a road idiot.

Old Tang never denied this fact, and even when others asked him for directions, he would not self-righteously show others the way, but was very sorry to tell the other party that he actually didn't know the way.

(Manually @Roronoa Solon here)

So even if the navigation indicated that the nearest store was only about 300 meters away at the beginning, he didn't follow the route marked on the map to find it, but resolutely chose to take a taxi.

There are two benefits to doing this.

First, the taxi driver is familiar with the terrain and knows the local characteristics inside out.

Secondly...... Old Don wanted to familiarize himself with the terrain.

That's right, Old Tang still hasn't given up the great cause of finding the way, which is very difficult for him.

After all, every road idiot has a heart that does not admit defeat.

Lao Tang actually has a warm heart, and he also wants to list a few routes for the other party to choose when others are looking for his own directions.

(Here again @ Roronoa Soron)

The driver still sent Lao Tang to the bureau in a twist and turn.

In fact, Don knows this place, and there is a similar store in Flushing, the largest Chinese settlement in the United States, and I heard that it tastes good, but Don has never been there.

The reason for this is probably because Flushing is in Queens, and Don Sr. lives in Brooklyn, and he is afraid that he will get lost and not be able to return home after eating.

In fact, there is a deeper reason.

Old Don has no money.

The place where Old Tang lives sounds like an apartment, but it's actually a dilapidated tube building.

Many people may not understand the concept of the building, but it should be much clearer in another way.

Barracks, student dormitories, agency buildings in the seventies and eighties.

If this is not clear, then you can go to watch Xing Ye's movie "Kung Fu", in which the pigpen city of the chartered wife is a typical residential area of the tube building.

This type of building is characterized by the large number of rooms, but each room is small in size, there is no separate area within the room, and the room is connected to a long corridor that leads to the common toilet and bathroom.

People live together in a bustling manner.

High Emotional Intelligence: Increase relationships between neighbors.

Low EQ: Productive farming where capital squeezes value.

If it was placed a few decades ago, the tube building was still a very life-like, livable, and many advantages of the housing type, but now, the tube building has only one advantage: cheap.

People who live in such a place must not be said to be rich, but can only be said to be poor to a certain extent.

And Lao Tang is such a poor man.

Bounty hunters, like online writers, are not a stable and legitimate industry in themselves, and the upper and lower limits are extremely high.

Those who have the ability can earn millions of dollars in a single task, and those who are not capable will not say whether they can make money, and if they don't put their lives into it, they will be lucky.

In the past, Old Tang was also the kind of hunter who had little ability in the vast group of hunters.

But the King of Bronze and Fire can't be said to be incapable, only Old Tang is incapable.

But Lao Tang is lucky, he can barely live by rubbing a little bit of the task, and he is easy to satisfy, and he will not need to buy a car and a house like a man and woman who are about to get married, and prepare a dowry.

In fact, he has been single for thousands of years.

Of course, it's not just him, the rest of the dragon kings are similar.

If the dragon king can evolve into other species, then eight of the four thrones may be renamed the eight single dog kings.

And that's not even counting the Black King, who was hacked to death by humans, and the White King, who was killed by the Black King.

So in this story, we have a high bloodline, which will lead to too high blood mourning, and the loneliness of this middle and second disease will easily make people unable to find a partner.

Ahem, off track.

To get back to the point, Lao Tang has no object, he doesn't need to get married, and he himself doesn't have anything that needs to be consumed, so he doesn't need to pretend to go to some night club or something like that, and then come to a very sand coin sentence "The consumption of the whole audience is paid by Tang Gongzi".

He just wants to live the life of an ordinary person, eat, sleep, sleep, eat, go and do tasks when he has no money, play games at home when he has money, and he may not be able to eat anything good when his friends come, but hot dogs and colas are enough, and he can also take his friends to swim around the United States in a greyhound.

In this case, Lao Tang naturally has no jujubes on his body, so such a "high-end" catering service like bureau qi, Lao Tang has only heard of it and has never been there.

He didn't know what Gu Bei thought, no matter which city he went to, he had to eat all the local food, but in fact, in his opinion, these things were no different from hot dog Coke.

In addition to being more expensive.

At the end of a trip to consumption, Lao Tang recorded it in the account of Everywhere.

This was learned from Gu Bei.

It can only be said that what to learn from whom, those who are close to Zhu are red, those who are close to ink are black, and those who are close to Gu North do not learn well.

Walking out of the store with his stomach and teeth, Old Tang looked at the vast traffic and suddenly didn't want to take a taxi.

The rental in the capital is really expensive, the starting point is thirteen, the road is still blocked, there is that kung fu Lao Tang threw off two good legs, and he can get to the place in less than ten minutes.

It is less than 300 meters, and there are not many turns, and I was taken by the car to go through, plus I have a navigation ......

Old Tang felt that his wave was right at the right time!

You can't get lost!

My old Don's wish is to use my legs to measure every inch of land under my feet!

lets go!

Old Don set off.

Half an hour later......

Standing in a completely unfamiliar complex, Old Tang looked blankly at the steel jungle in front of him, and let out a question from his soul: "Where is this TM?" ”

That's right, he got lost.

As for the process of getting lost...... It's hard to put into words.

After all, a person who grew up in the United States, whether he is a Chinese-American or a Chinese-American, is unlikely to understand the 3D surround traffic situation in Beijing.

The designer of the road in the capital is very good, this is the realm of skill close to the Tao, even if Gu Bei comes, he has to open the altar and count a few hexagrams to get out of this array.

Not to mention Lao Tang, he was almost dizzy in this circle, he only felt that every building felt like the same building, and he felt that every building looked different.

In desperation, he could only call for foreign aid to come out to help.

"You say, you can go back from here?"

Old Tang stood in front of the dark subway entrance, and his voice was full of disbelief: "I don't remember that I drilled a hole on the road, how could this be the way back?" ”

Norton's dragon soul turned into a small flying dragon the size of Don's head, floating next to Don like emergency food: "My dignified King of Bronze and Fire will deliberately point you the wrong way?" You have to trust this king, as a dragon king, my instinct tells me that this road will definitely lead to the destination! ”

"You can pull it down!"

Old Tang's voice was sad and indignant: "You also said the same thing about those roads just now, none of them are right!" ”

Norton, who was questioned, was a little dissatisfied: "What do you mean by this, the two of us are one, is it possible that I can still trick you?" ”

Old Tang pouted: "I can't say." ”

Norton: "...... 6。 ”

"Since you can't trust me, then why are you asking me to come out, just find your own way."

The little dragon swung around in the air twice, and then a manzi plunged into Old Tang's body and disappeared.

Although Old Tang and Norton have been separated into two souls, there is still a secret connection between them, and both parties can vaguely perceive each other's emotions and states.

Norton was indeed angry this time, and Old Tang also felt that he was a little too much, so he hurriedly called out in his heart: "Norton! Norton! Dragon King Boss! ”

No response.

It seems that you can only rely on yourself.

Old Tang turned his head and glanced at the entrance of the subway, it was pitch black, silent as death, and he couldn't see what it looked like inside from the outside.

Don hesitated to go in, after all, even if it was a shortcut to his destination as Norton said, as far as the scenery Tang saw, he always felt that it didn't seem to be a good place in recent years.

In fact, at this time, Lao Tang wanted to grab someone from the side and ask for directions, but the strange thing was that Lao Tang raised his head, and there was not even half a figure as far as his eyes could see, it was hard to believe that there was such a remote place in the bustling Wangfujing area.

In fact, Old Tang felt that he might have run outside the Wangfujing area in the past half hour, and he was getting farther and farther away from his destination.

Old Tang was engaged in a battle between heaven and man in his heart, when suddenly a wind blew out of the subway, the wind was light and fluttering, and there was a hint of familiarity in it.

It's like an old man.

The smell in the wind was exactly the same as what he had smelled when he took a taxi in front of the hotel.

Old Tang was stunned for a moment, and then walked into the station.

Perhaps by following this wind, you can find your way back.

At the same time, Peking University, Xia Mi, who was taking Chu Zihang to experience working life together, was suddenly stunned.

said that it was a part-time job, but in fact, it was not a very tiring and difficult job, because the grades and abilities of the two were good, so under the advice of Chu Zihang, they gave up the inefficient work of distributing flyers and sales, and instead took the exam to become a teaching assistant for a certain professor.

Now the two of them are in the office helping the professor organize the materials he will use for the next class.

Xia Mi was suddenly stunned, Chu Zihang, who was thinking about how to have a showdown with Xia Mi, naturally noticed Xia Mi's abnormality, put down the movements in his hand and turned his head to look at Xia Mi: "What's wrong?" ”

Chu Zihang's voice brought Xia Mi back to her senses, and she threw the materials in her hand on the table: "I have something urgent, senior brother, you can help me ask the professor for a leave." ”

After saying that, he quickly left the office without looking back.

Chu Zihang glanced at the direction Xia Mi left, and silently picked up the information that Xia Mi had left behind.

Natsumi quickly left the school and found the nearest subway entrance to get in.

Urgent, very urgent.

She had just felt something touch the boundaries of the Nibelungen.

She could probably guess what it was, after all, as far as the current capital was concerned, there were only a handful of people who could do that.

"Norton ......"

β€”β€”Time back to the presentβ€”β€”

August 22 at 9:00 a.m.

Chu Zihang drove to the main entrance of the hotel, and then dialed Gu Bei's phone.

The phone was not connected, the door of the Bentley passenger seat was opened, and Gu Bei casually threw the silver-white suitcase in the back row, and then sat in the passenger seat.

With the roar of the engine, the car starts.

"What's wrong?"

Chu Zihang's voice still didn't have any ups and downs, like a flat and boundless grassland, but Gu Bei keenly noticed that there was more impatience in it, like cattle and sheep on the grassland.

"Old Don is gone."

As Gu Bei spoke, he felt in his pocket and found a few copper coins that he had polished with Qi.

Chu Zihang was a little dumbfounded: "Old Tang is gone?" When? ”

"I don't know, I wasn't there all day yesterday, but Old Tang didn't go back to the hotel at least after two o'clock in the afternoon."

Hearing this, Chu Zihang's face was also a little ugly: "There is one more thing. ”

"What's wrong?"

"Natsumi hasn't been there since yesterday afternoon."

Gu Bei was stunned for a moment: "I understand." ”

He knew what Chu Zihang meant, Xia Mi is the dragon king, Lao Tang is also the dragon king, the relationship between the dragon king and the dragon king is not a relationship such as hello, hello, hello, everyone, etc., they have always regarded each other as prey, as long as they meet, it will be life and death.

If only Lao Tang was missing, then Gu Bei would at most think that this guy was lost.

If only Xia Mi was missing, then Chu Zihang wouldn't care too much, because it had only been half a day, maybe he was entangled in things.

But now the two dragon kings have disappeared together, and the time of disappearance is extremely close.

Gu Bei and Chu Zihang didn't think that these two had gone somewhere to play pretending to be a family wine.

But as things stand, things are not irreparable.

After all, the battle between the two dragon kings is impossible for nothing to happen.

But now the capital is still peaceful and quiet.

That means that either Gu Bei and Chu Zihang have a disagreement, and these two have not met at all; Either the two have met, but for some reason there hasn't been a war yet.

But no matter what kind of situation it is, it's only temporary, it's okay if the two don't meet, once they do, it's still without Gu Bei and Chu Zihang on their side......

The results speak for themselves.

The immediate priority now is to find these two as soon as possible.

Gu Bei held the copper coin in his hand, and the white Qi wrapped it on it.

Gu Bei did not master the Divine Skill Hundred Refinement, but there is a "sacrificial technique" in the refining method of the Divine Skill Hundred Refining, which is activated under the condition of destroying an item contaminated with Qi, and the effect is to maximize the realization of related skills.

For example, if Gu Bei uses the "Sacrificial Technique" to destroy a magic sword, then the magic sword will burst out with a powerful slash; Gu Bei used the "Sacrificial Technique" to destroy a shield, so the shield was shattered in blocking the next attack of any intensity.

The copper coins that Gu Bei took out were polished by him with Qi for a long time, and once he still had these copper coins to find Eri Yi hidden in the Genji Heavy Industries Building, which can be said to be very helpful for divination.

Gu Bei did not hesitate to launch a "sacrificial technique" against a few copper coins.

Where did Don Sr. go?

After a while, the copper coins scattered.

Gu Bei fixed his eyes: "Empty hexagram?!" ”

Empty hexagrams, that is, there are no hexagrams, and they can't be calculated.

It may also be that the place where Old Tang is now represents emptiness, so it is displayed as an empty hexagram.

Gu Bei stretched out his hand to touch the copper coin, and the moment he touched the copper coin, several copper coins "Kacha" a few times at the same time, and they were broken into many pieces.

This is the "sacrificial technique", the sacrifice item is exchanged for the result, and the sacrifice will not be returned regardless of whether you get the desired result or not.

Gu Bei didn't feel sorry for these copper coins at all, for him now, as long as he kept strengthening the method of refining, he would one day be able to master the magic machine and refinement, and at that time, any heavenly hexagram copper coins, money treasures and other magic weapons would be trivial.

Gu Bei cares more about the result.

Chu Zihang also knew that Gu Bei had some mysterious skills, and asked, "Is there a result?" ”

"No, drive slower."

Chu Zihang braked lightly, the speed of the car slowed down, and Gu Bei instructed: "Give me the Dharma protector, don't disturb me." ”

Chu Zihang nodded.

Gu Bei mobilized Jinggong and entered the interior scene.

The core of the interior scene floated in the air, and Gu Bei suddenly felt like he was suddenly separated from the world.

The last time he went inside was to negotiate with Norton.

Now that I think about it, it was a year ago.

Gu Bei raised his head and looked at the quietly burning core: "Where is Old Tang?" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a huge fireball like a meteorite fell down.
