Chapter 176: The Unexpected

"Ahem......"

It is rare to see that the guests in front of Old Man Hong's stall are empty.

Maybe it was the old man Hong who was fabricating his fate behind him, and the speed of constructing the white silk thread that implicated him was getting faster and faster.

Often it is just a sentence, and the believers of fate who come with pleading and doubts leave.

So it was like it couldn't be filled, and no one waited in front of Old Man Hong's stall for a long time.

……

Here, Jing Chen turned his gaze and looked at Old Man Hong again,

In his sight, Old Man Hong was already entangled with a lot of things similar to the threads of fate.

Entangled, bound him, wrapped more and more tightly around him, and at the same time the other end diverged out, connecting the sky and the unknown distance.

In the feelings, this old man Hong, the ability of the fate agent seems to be getting stronger and stronger,

But the body showed some weakness, weakness, as if suffering some kind of pain.

Jing Chen knew what Old Man Hong was probably doing,

This fate agent who seems to have been stimulated and woken up a little,

It seems that he wants to use the power of fate to weave and dial out a fate without disaster.

Or there is a disaster, but it is parallel to this fabricated fate, and it does not affect the people under the fabricated fate,

It's like a person in a disaster, hiding in the cracks of the disaster, shrinking his body and burying his head, as long as the disaster does not fall directly on the body, he ignores the disaster outside the gap.

And Jing Chen was thinking about how to help Old Man Hong.

Over there, after Old Man Hong coughed, his face turned even whiter,

Somewhat weakly and awkwardly, he raised his head and looked out of the umbrella held by his wife,

The rain in the urban area of Wang'an City has stopped as he said before.

Looking at the dark clouds that gradually dispersed in the night sky, he couldn't help but show some pain on his face,

This is his struggle as a fate agent and a master Hong who wants to save some people.

In a sense, he is still a betrayer of fate, and the established fate naturally cannot be as he made up.

He wanted to concoct a future destiny that was completely non-existent, beautiful, peaceful.

But they are only agents of fate, and they are not capable of resisting the majesty of those great beings.

Even for his Lord, the predetermined destiny was gradually coming to a final end.

How could he do it...... He could only shrink his head to a certain extent, confined to this fate he had made up.

Even if the disaster in Wang'an City subsided at this moment, it seemed that it was because it was already in Wang'an City, and in addition, he couldn't understand the support of the great force.

"Ahem......"

After coughing twice, Old Man Hong slowly lowered his head and looked at the stall, a little further on the street, as if waiting for the next doubtful believer to come.

The body sits, all a little swaying, and the face shows some pain uncontrollably from time to time,

Just by bearing so much fate, he is already a little unbearable,

The consciousness that has awakened from the fate agent and belongs to him has been about to collapse again,

He seemed to see his Lord again, and he was returning to the bosom of his Lord.

Probably, when there is a great force to break his concocted fate, it is when he dies.

"Ahem...... Ahem! ”

Old man Hong's chest rose and fell violently, coughed twice, and his body trembled a little.

And at this very moment,

In front of Old Man Hong's stall, there was finally another believer in fate who sought answers.

It was a young girl, still carrying a folded umbrella in her hand, stepping on a somewhat wet road.

Towards Old Man Hong, sometimes walking quickly, sometimes trotting over.

"Dash...... Da ......"

The shoes made some sounds from far and near when they stepped on the road where there was some standing water.

"Master Hong......"

Gasping for some breath, the young woman came to Old Man Hong's stall.

Probably waiting for the person to wait, Old Man Hong's originally pale face showed some smiles,

bent down the stool on the ground and tossed it down,

"Sit down."

"Thank you, thank you, Master Hong......"

The young woman was a little flattered, answered the chorus, and then quickly sat down.

"Master Hong, I have some things that I can't decide, and I really don't know what to do, please advise."

"The Lord will show you the direction of your destiny."

The young woman was originally a little irritable as she spoke, but when she heard Old Man Hong's answer, she gradually calmed down,

Talking about her.

"Master Hong, my hometown is out of town. My parents live in Haiping City, near Shaohai Bay, and the rain has been getting heavier and heavier in the past two days. Now there is no peace everywhere, and I am afraid that we will have a big water there...... It's prone to flooding, and there have been tsunamis, so even though my parents live far from the sea, I can't help it. ”

"Moreover, now there is a mess everywhere, it seems that all of a sudden disaster has been suffered everywhere, and I am alone in the field, and I am not familiar with the place, and I am not at ease."

"I just want to go back, back to Haiping City. But when I called back to tell my parents about it, they didn't agree to it, so I stayed in Wang'an City, saying that it was inconvenient to go back. ”

As she spoke, the young woman frowned again, and became a little restless again.

"But I really can't worry about my parents, I'm afraid that something will happen to them when the time comes...... I read on the Internet that many people were affected by the floods, and their parents were cut off and killed. ”

"Master, what do you think I should do?"

With trouble in her eyes, the young woman looked at Master Hong,

This is the trust of Old Man Hong.

"Kids. You shouldn't go back. ”

Old man Hong listened to the young woman's words, the smile on his face gradually faded, and then shook his head,

"And what about my parents?"

"They'll be fine. You worry that you can call them every day these days and they will pick them up every day. ”

Old man Hong responded.

The young woman breathed a sigh of relief, as if Old Man Hong said it, and she believed it.

"Thank you, Master Hong. Will we suffer here? I don't think anything has been good lately, and we've had floods here before. ”

"No, no."

Old man Hong relieved one of the young woman's worries again,

The young woman relaxed at once.

"Go back tonight and you'll call your parents again, and your parents will tell you...... Ahem...... Ahem......"

"They will tell you that the rain in Haiping City has stopped, so you can rest assured."

Old man Hong said to the young woman again,

The young woman's face became calmer and calmer, and she listened quietly and earnestly.

In the first paragraph, Old Man Hong said it was relatively difficult, and if he said it further, it was much smoother.

But after a few brief words,

Old man Hong spoke in much detail to the late-arriving believer.

"The next day, you'll go to work as usual, and when you get to the zoo, you'll feed the lions in the lounge as usual, and then put them in the lion park, and you'll be busy with other things."

"At eleven o'clock in the afternoon, when you were free to rest on the bench outside the lion garden, the lion recognized you, and came very close to you, and rolled at you."

"It's a weekend and there are a lot of people coming to the zoo, many of them with children. You see a family, and your parents have a little girl of six or seven years old, and the little girl sees that the lion seems to be close to you and asks you how you did it. ”

"You tell her that you know the lions......"

"You worked until the evening, when you went back to your accommodation, and then you remembered to call your parents. They tell you everything is fine...... Although it rained a little more, it was ...... Ahem...... Nothing is too much ......"

Old man Hong spoke carefully to the young woman,

It wasn't until more than fifty days later that the voice slowed down.

Just to say that the young girl took a leave of absence on the last day and returned home to be with her parents.

After that, Old Man Hong exhaled again and waved his hand at the young woman,

"Go, go......"

"Thank you, Master Hong......"

As if receiving a reassuring answer, the young woman smiled on her face, thanked Old Man Hong and left.

When I left, although my footsteps were not as fast as when I came, I was much more relaxed and no longer in a hurry.

Old man Hong looked at the young woman and walked away, and finally no one came to the stall for a long time.

It seems that the people who need to be guided by fate today have already come.

"Ahem......"

Old man Hong also received the last believer,

closed his eyes,

The sentence leaned over, and his whole body became weaker,

His arms, which were as weak as rotten wood, were a little illusory,

It's like it's just a myriad of threads intermingled together.

After coughing violently a few more times, Old Man Hong lowered his head and glanced at his arm,

The arm barely regained its thin appearance,

Turning his head again, Old Man Hong finally looked at his wife beside him again,

His wife was still holding an umbrella and looking at him calmly.

"Wife, the rain has stopped, put away the umbrella."

The old lady looked at him and was silent.

The two looked at each other, and Old Man Hong's gaze was a little dazed.

Immediately after, the old lady still did not answer, but just put away the umbrella.

"Ahem......"

Blowing a slightly chilly wind, Old Man Hong coughed twice.

Turning his head, Old Man Hong looked around, and then muttered and asked,

"Am I doing the right thing?"

He still has a devout belief in fate, the Lord.

Belonging to Master Hong, Old Man Hong's consciousness is only a little bit.

"Everything is guided by fate."

"Everything is arranged by fate for the best."

The old lady replied to Old Man Hong's words, just as Old Man Hong replied to those fate believers before.

Old man Hong smiled and didn't speak again.

looked into the distance, and finally turned his gaze to Jing Chen's side.

For this mysterious gentleman,

He saw it when someone from the Bureau of Anomalies visited.

And as a proxy for fate, he seems to see more.

It seems that the more powerful you are, the more you find it difficult to understand the mysterious existence.

That's the mountain on top of the mountain, that's the greatness above the great,

That's everything, it's truth of truth.

Seem...... Greater than his Lord.

Thinking of this, Old Man Hong came back to his senses and showed some smiles on his face,

Sure enough, he was an ungodly traitor.

Looking at the mysterious existence again, Old Man Hong hesitated a little more, but finally got up.

……

"Do you want to cover up the conceptual existence of these people with mysterious objects?"

The moon hung high in the sky, and even compared to the lights in the city, it was still exceptionally bright.

It seems to bloom more light and spread to the earth,

But just these moonshine can hardly make people feel warm.

In this city that was stricken by frost, or cold, Lao Chen reincarnated from the moonlight and fell on a high place.

The investigator next to him, Yinhu, appeared closely, looked at the city, and asked out loud.

At this moment, the city seems to be exceptionally quiet.

It seems that only the investigators of the Bureau of Anomalies are secretly busy in the city.

Yinhu restrained the cold wind that was raging in the original city, and Lao Chen bathed the city in light and the warmth of the sun god.

The investigators of the Bureau of Anomalies have been hunting down the Temperature Stealer and other monsters, and the elite investigators who wield 'Heat and Fire' have also tried to unleash their abilities everywhere to give the city more warmth.

But all these can only make the frozen places thaw again, and let the people who are still alive feel warm again.

Before Yinhu and Laochen arrived,

The cold wind was already raging back and forth here.

This is where there is no urban heating system in the first place.

Not to mention the outdoors, even indoors, it is like being in a refrigerator with a closed door.

A cold wind blew through half of the city, and half of the city's life was quietly blown out like a candle flame.

Not only ordinary people, but also many investigators who were originally in charge of this area and were in this area.

Life is frozen, frozen.

According to the data monitored by the Bureau of Abnormal Investigation, under the cold wind, the lowest temperature here reached more than minus 90 degrees, and there was some pollution that belonged to the disaster.

And the time for this temperature to arrive is still very fast.

From the realization of the cold by the people here, to death, not much has passed in between.

There were still cars, lives, and animals on the road that were supposed to be moving, and they were like ice at the moment.

Some investigators were aware of the anomaly, but only reported the news and died before they could escape from the area.

"Use it."

This is the beginning of tonight's arrival of the Lord of Calamity, where the greatest casualties will occur directly, and it may also be the beginning.

If this information is allowed to spread, the collapse of order is at this moment.

After Lao Chen paused, he just nodded in response,

"Bring SY017 here."

It was a special item found by the Anomaly Bureau after lies and deception came.

It seems that there is some authority for lies, and there is a high probability that lies have to do with deception.

Able to conceptually erase, or rather obscure all existence in an area.

It's like when lies and deception came to those areas.

However, the use of such special items also has obvious side effects.

This is undoubtedly amplifying the influence of the power of lies, and perhaps the influence of lies and deception that has been suppressed will quickly return.

But there is no better way.

“…… Then should we use some special items to strengthen some people's belief in order? ”

Investigator Yinhu looked up from a monitoring report and asked.

Even if other places haven't found such widespread destruction as here,

But under the mass of disasters, there is always one individual victim, and people on the Internet and elsewhere have been panicked and shaken.

The order they guarded was crumbling like a thousand holes.

The apocalyptic rhetoric has already begun to rise a bit...... At first, it was a joke of some people on the Internet, but now those people can't laugh anymore.

And what Yin Hu said, those special items are naturally used as things that the investigators of the Investigation Bureau choose to have firm beliefs for, although they have little effect on the investigators of the Investigation Bureau.

Lao Chen fell silent on this question, and then just shook his head,

Raising his head, he looked at the moon again, and paused.

And at this time, seeing that Lao Chen didn't speak, he also turned back to the investigator Yinhu,

Then he suddenly paused, and then raised his head,

“…… On the coast of Shaowan Bay, the rain in Haiping City was a little lighter, just now. ”

Yinhu seemed to sense the change as the ontology of Shaohaiwan and said something out loud.

Lao Chen also turned his head,

It's not supposed to be.

Near Shaohai Bay, the rain in Haiping City is something that Yinhu can't solve.

That is, it was affected by the rain on the bay at this moment,

And the rain on the bay is not only the impact of the disaster, but also the impact of the storm and the sea that will come after the disaster.

That's where storms and ocean forces are most affected...... When the storm comes, it's normal for more glory to shine there.

And Yinhu's Seagod authority and the storm and the confrontation with the sea are really ...... It's a little tough.

The sudden decrease in rain was obviously not normal.

"Let's go check it out......"

Lao Chen said something to Yinhu, and Yinhu nodded.

Naturally, it will pass from the ontology that is the little bay in the incarnation of the past.

In these particularly difficult times,

Some unexpected changes may not be considered a bad thing.
