The night of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve.

The lights near Shushan are bright, and Shushan High School, Kaifu Temple and other areas are in full swing to roll up their sleeves and work hard.

And the top of Shushan Mountain is also brightly lit.

In the middle and upper floors of the Hall of the Dead, about a hundred or so people sat behind the sumptuous long tables, all with their heads hung and their eyes closed, not knowing what they were doing.

In the aisles between the many long tables.

A young girl in a cheongsam and a muscular man in a black suit carry a tray and shuttle.

Some of the trays are filled with dishes, while others are stocked with tobacco and alcohol.

These things were placed on the table one by one by the waiters.

If it was before, there might still be people who took the opportunity to touch a handful of waiters passing by, and by the way, opened a few yellow words, which attracted the rest of the audience to applaud and laugh and talk.

But since a few days ago, the high priest slaughtered one on the spot, and wanted to force a beautiful man's middle-level female while he was drinking, everyone has been honest and responsible.

Afterwards, the high priest also educated Fan Zhong: In troubled times, you should use heavy canons!

Time passed slowly, and everything on the table was laid out, such as eating, drinking, and smoking.

But everyone in the seats remained motionless in that position.

It wasn't until there was a sound of iron doors grinding against the meteorological observatory at the top of the viewing platform that everyone opened their eyes and looked sideways at it.

The high priest in a towering hat held a staff and slowly walked out of the meteorological observatory that had been converted into a meditation hall.

Behind him was an expressionless bearded man: Fan Zhong.

"The hall master has an order, you can start celebrating!"

The high priest raised his scepter, and the voice rang out in the ears of the people: "Praise the Lord of the Temple!" ”

Hearing this, everyone bowed their heads and closed their eyes again in unison and said, "Praise the hall master!" ”

Immediately when I opened my eyes again, the viewing platform suddenly became lively.

The banquet changed from quiet to noisy vegetable market in an instant, and the high priest said softly: "Fan Zhong, you go and take a seat, and have a few drinks on behalf of me and the directors of the various departments." ”

Fan Zhong nodded, and then walked towards the banquet everyone.

The High Priest walked alone to the edge of the viewing platform.

Until he came to the position where Qi Rin often sits.

The high priest then stopped, silently took out a compressed biscuit from his bosom and chewed it silently alone.

All the people in the temple of the dead knew that the high priest never ate with them.

The high priest ate only two meals a day, both of which were compressed biscuits and mineral water.

This kind of food treatment is not even comparable to those middle-level armed personnel who are not qualified to go up the mountain.

In the beginning, there were people who privately commented on the high priest: the high priest is not a man!

Except for the occasional visit to the Jade Maiden to listen to music, the people in the Hall of the Dead could not find anything on the high priest that could be criticized and criticized.

And even if you go to listen to the music, the high priest also spends a contribution point,

Never in vain.

The High Priest's exemplary behavior, combined with the planning and establishment of the Hope for Tomorrow Project, has been well received by the believers.

But the high priest had a quirk.

In addition to going to the meditation hall to pray and ask the Lord for revelation.

The high priest loved nothing more than to stand on the edge of the observation deck to eat, chew compressed biscuits, and drink mineral water.

After a minute or so of settling out the diet,

The high priest would take one hand behind his back, and with the other hand holding his staff, he would look quietly into the center of the city.

No one knows what the high priest was thinking.

Except for Fan Zhong

Fan Zhong knew what the high priest's actions came from.

All of this is the High Priest imitating the Skeleton Man!

Speculating on the skeletons!

Imitation, in order to become stronger, in order to be valuable to the skeleton people.

Speculation is to prevent the day of reckoning from coming.

When he first ascended the mountain, the high priest found it by counting the supplies.

Compressed biscuits and high-calorie foods were taken away from the sorted supplies.

However, a series of materials such as roast chicken and beer were all left behind.

After all, he had fled halfway up the mountain from the mountain, and he knew what supplies were on the mountain.

To the High Priest, this illustrates one thing: Skeleton people are not greedy for material pleasures.

In addition, the high priest also found that there were footprints left by copper bones on the ground at the edge of the observation deck!

He didn't know that the footprint was left by Qi Rin when he was dealing with the disguised corpse beast.

The high priest only knew that there were footprints there, and there were still a few traces left by arrows on the concrete floor about a few dozen meters away from the entrance of the mountain on the opposite side of the footprints.

Explain that someone was killed by the arrow, and then the skeleton on the edge of the observation deck rushed to mend the knife.

What the skeleton on the edge of the observation deck does?

It's the edge, why are there skeletons?

If it's protection, you should stand at the entrance to the mountain, right?

Of all the possible answers, only one High Priest felt the most real: the Skeleton Man liked to be on the edge of the observation deck!

There are also some heavy blood stains left near the edge of the observation deck.

The high priest judged that it was caused by the accumulation of corpses.

Although the High Priest had never been up the mountain, it was possible to tell from these traces that the Skeleton Man liked to stay at the edge of the observation deck.

The high priest has been pondering the question: Why?

Why do Skeleton People like to stay here?

Isn't it cold here?

Some time ago it happened to be a day when the weird university was flying, why did he stay on the edge of the observation deck?

"Moh."

The high priest stood in front of the place where Qi Rin had sit, silently looking at the center of the city in the distance, and looked up to see a thick white fog blockade.

His heart moved and muttered: "Could it be that there are hills and valleys in his heart, and mountains and rivers in his eyes."

"Sure enough!"

"Extraordinary people really can't be judged by common sense!"

For a moment, the High Priest's face showed a hint of emotion, and he felt as if he was a little closer to the skeleton man!

That's a good thing!

In fact, the high priest's speculation was completely wrong,

What he didn't know was that Qi Rin was sitting here just for safety.

Because this is just the end of the observation deck and there is a steep mountain below, if an enemy attacks, most of them will come from the opposite end of the main road up the mountain, or from the other two directions.

Of the four directions, only this one is safer.

That's why Qi Rin sat here, and by the way, he could also look at the direction of the city center, and guess the progress of the army through the explosions and fires there.

That's why Qi Rin has been sitting here.

But the high priest apparently didn't think so at the moment.

He felt that there must be a deep meaning for the skeleton man sitting here!

That is: there are hills and valleys in the heart, and mountains and rivers in the eyes!

The High Priest, who was trying to go one step further with the Skeleton Man, suddenly thought of the young man who had said, 'Please come down the mountain.'

The high priest had seen Qi Rin, and when Qi Rin said, "Please go down the mountain, although Qi Rin was wearing a mask and a hat at the time, the high priest still saw the outline of his eyebrows and eyes.

Just that one glance!

Just one glance!

The high priest judged that it must be a young man!

I'm in my early twenties!

But his bloodshot eyes felt full of anger.

I don't feel like a young man who has just entered society.

On the contrary, he is like a middle-aged man who has been polished at the bottom of the society for a long time but has not lost his fighting spirit.

At first, the High Priest had guessed that the young man was the Skeleton Man.

But later, this speculation was rejected by the high priest.

The reason is simple, those skeletons have melee and ranged.

If it's the Chosen One, it can only mean that you have stepped on shit and lucked two skills!

Not to mention that the high priest never believed in luck, he only believed in seeing is believing.

Moreover, these two skeletons will evolve!

There are more arrows in the quiver of those who carry swords, swords and shields, and bows and arrows!

Ordinary people don't know about the existence of professionals, they only know that someone has touched the golden ball of light and has a legendary and enviable talent.

Other than that, pros, hidden pros, god-level, and so on are not things they can know now.

The High Priest, trapped in the information cocoon, quickly determined that the young man was not a skeleton.

"Looking at the behavior of those skeletons carrying the sedan chair for him, it is estimated that the skeletons chose the horses!"

The High Priest frowned for a moment, "No, I have to work harder, I can only be the spokesperson of the skeleton people!" If necessary, assassinate that horse boy! ”

"The various expansions of the Hall of the Dead and the contact with other forces should also be accelerated!"

"People have to have value in existence so that they will not be liquidated."

Just as the High Priest was thinking, a man with a gun, dressed in black, with two bars on his chest, came to report.

The military is coming!

Hearing this, the high priest was overjoyed.

The old and bright military has come to give money again!

The gun-wielding officer looked at the high priest and gasped with excitement: "It's a major general!" ”

Good boy!

It's wise to follow the Hall of the Dead!

Major generals of the military have come to visit!

Looking at the entire Nanzhili, who is so honored?!!

The military must have come to deliver something again this time!!

The gun-wielding officer looked excited and honored.

It was as if the military had come to visit him.

Halfway up the Shu Mountain, some trees were cut down by the commander of the Great Sacrifice and a new platform was built.

The High Priest inherited Qi Rin's fine style, and except for major events, only the upper echelons of the Temple of the Dead could go to the summit platform.

The rest of the people, without permission, trespassed on the top of the mountain and killed them!

At this moment, a thin man in a military uniform was looking around with interest.

Halfway up the mountain, many fortifications were erected around the platform, behind which heavy machine guns and other weapons sent by the military were erected, and three armed men dressed in black were on standby after each fortification.

The thin man's cheeks were extremely pale and he had heavy dark circles under his eyes.

If outsiders see him for the first time, I am afraid that malicious people will think that he is the result of excessive indulgence.

But beside the major general, a strong man with a powerful force in his hand and a Tang horizontal sword knew that this was not caused by indulgence.

Rather, it is caused by exertion.

In the two major security zones of the military, everyone only knows Major Qin Youde, the god of war.

But no one has ever known that this little-known young general and Qin Youde are the same master.

Moreover, as a strong man among his cronies, he also knows that the young general's contribution since the catastrophe is not less than Qin Youde, or even much greater.

In his opinion, the major general is the hope of mankind and the future of mankind.

The stout man glanced at the two armed men blocking the road up the mountain and snorted coldly: "I actually asked you to wait here!" This high priest is really a big shelf! ”

"Without a skeleton, he's something!"

The major general hid his face and coughed twice, and waved his hand to stop the man.

"He's not as unbearable as Zong Hengling said."

Hearing what the young general said, the strong man immediately looked at his nose, and his nose and heart stopped talking.

The young general looked at him and smiled slightly: "When we came, you also saw the hot construction sites around us. ”

"There are vegetable fields, there are breeding, chickens and pigs, even a pig farmer can live in a variety of finely decorated cottages, and his elderly parents who are lucky enough to escape the corpse beasthood, when they are tired of going out for a walk, Maybach comes to pick them up."

The sturdy man didn't think much about it, and sneered: "They have a lot of fuel." ”

The major general smiled: "It's not just a matter of oil, it's a question of belonging." ”

"Food, clothing, shelter and transportation are what everyone needs, let's just talk about this residence."

"In the past, real estate in major cities was one side of the situation where young people couldn't afford to buy a house, so they could only rent a house, and they couldn't rent a decent one."

"On the other side, there are a large number of newly built houses, which cannot be sold and are vacant, which is typical, the cat is hungry and thin, and the fish stinks."

"But now, the end times are coming, and everything has changed."

"This high priest is a smart man, and he is very willing to use some in the beginning."

As the young general was talking, the high priest led Fan Zhong to walk slowly from the mountain, and then he stopped talking, and a kind smile appeared on his face.

But Zong Heng frowned a little, looking unhappy.

They had been in contact with the Temple of the Dead a few times before, and each time they had sent a lot of things.

Even the special bullets and guns rationed by the Demon Seed Research Institute have been given a lot.

But every time he mentioned that he wanted to see the skeleton man, the high priest would always excuse himself with various reasons and say that the temple master was busy, how he was.

I've taken so many things from the military, but the skeletons never see them!

These Zongheng endured it, because the young general he admired the most said: Those who achieve great things, regardless of modesty, there will always be a day when they will be side by side.

Until this time, the Major General came in person, but he still didn't see the skeleton man.

This time Zong Heng finally couldn't help it,

Took so many of our things, and now our eldest brother is here, and your boss still hasn't come out?

He carried the black straight Tang Heng knife and asked angrily at the high priest who came over, "Why don't you see your hall master?" ”

"Our young general personally deigned to come, and your hall master still hasn't shown up?"

"I don't take our major general seriously!"

While Zong Heng was talking, the young general just looked at the high priest silently, without any intention of stopping.

And the high priest did not show any timidity in the face of Zong Heng's questioning, he took two steps forward, the scepter clattered on the ground, looked at the young general with a solemn face and said: "This general, it's really unfortunate! ”

"Our hall master has gone to the mist to explore the reality of the demon seed."

Zong Heng instantly turned red with anger when he heard this, and the military had sent people into the fog to investigate, but none of them survived.

Zong Heng stepped forward, glared at the high priest and said, "You"

"Zong Heng." The major general coughed and waved his hand to signal Zong Heng to retreat: "Don't lose your courtesy." ”

"Humph!" Zong Heng, who was unwilling, snorted coldly, and then retreated behind the general, holding Tang Heng's sword in his arms and holding it in front of his chest, and looked at the high priest coldly without saying a word.

The Major General chuckled, and the spatial ring flashed in his hand.

In the ripples of space, ten light armors appeared under the feet of the High Priest.

The High Priest's eyes were slightly downcast, and his left hand behind his back trembled, but his face remained unmoved.

Those ten light armors, the magic patterns on them are not stopping!

It's all enchanted armor!

The high priest's heart swelled, but he still looked up at the young general slowly and quietly, waiting for the other party to say something.

Maybe it was because the major general was pressed for time, but he didn't look at him and waited, and said with a straight smile: "The first time I visited the mountain, I was a little careful." ”

"I hope that the high priest will not be disgusted, please pass it on to the temple master on my behalf."

As the major general was talking, there was a sound of birds in the sky.
