Chapter 164: The Return of the Stars: The Revival of the Old King (Part II)
The north of the continent.
Polar daytime.
On the sacred mountain where the Mother Buddha Temple is located, there is a narrow and winding crack in the mountain that has existed since the old days.
It's like a scar that never heals.
Stretches for hundreds of kilometers.
The crack is less than a meter wide at its widest point and less than a centimeter at its narrowest......
Qiao Youning followed her master up the mountain for the first time, if it wasn't for the master's special reminder, I'm afraid she wouldn't have noticed the "holy stigma" all over the mountain range under her feet.
"Okay, okay, don't scream, you can go and atone for your sins right away......"
Qiao Youning was wearing a plain monk's robe, and her face was covered with a layer of white veil embroidered with the totem of the [Mother of the Great Buddha Temple].
The pretty and soft face looked very hazy under the white veil, and there was always a clear and stupid smile on the face.
At this moment, she is talking to the "little dolls" in the back basket.
Although her voice was so refreshing and gentle, the "dolls" carrying the basket were terrified to death......
The basket on Qiao Youning's back is not big, and it was woven for her by her master "Grandma Hong" with bamboo.
On the outside of the back basket is a complex structure drawn with blood-colored ink, which is specially used to suppress these "bad dolls" in the back basket, so that they will not be disobedient.
Coming to the widest mountain of the "Holy Stigma", Qiao Youning wiped the non-existent sweat on his face, and pretended to be very hard, panting with his waist crossed.
"It's so hard to cultivate, I have to carry you up the mountain three times a day......
Qiao You condensed the basket and put it on the ground.
She lifted the lid and saw that it was full of "strange babies" with extremely deformed head-to-body proportions.
Only the size of a palm.
But his head is as long as his body.
They resemble shrunken adult humans, with faces that look like adults or even old people.
Their bodies were wrapped in red cloth painted with talismans, and only their heads remained outside.
The red seal on their mouths was not very tight, and their whimpering cries could be faintly heard.
"You have done so many bad things in this world, and you have bullied so many people, you should also be punished, grandma said that the Buddha mother likes to play these bad people as children......
Qiao Youning picked up a doll with a middle-aged man's face with ease, and regardless of the horror and despair in the other party's eyes, she threw it directly into the "stigma" like an abyss in the mountain.
The next second.
A sticky chewing sound can be heard from the depths of the cracks in the mountain, followed by faint baby-like laughter.
"Mother Buddha, don't worry, there are so many ...... here."
Qiao Youning continued to pick it up in the back basket.
Each doll struggled to avoid her hand, but she didn't seem to see the fear in the eyes of these "kinds", but felt ...... Inexplicably happy.
Oh, yes.
Shouldn't the bad guys be punished?
Only these days there are fewer and fewer bad people killed, and good people like us, who never bully others, will not live such a difficult life......
"Youning."
Hearing this familiar voice suddenly coming from behind him, Qiao Youning paused, and hurriedly got up and looked back.
"Grandma!"
"Quickly pour all the offerings into it, and then follow me back to the temple."
"Is it in such a hurry? I still have ......."
"Black Star Transit, a great omen."
The old man who spoke stood in the shade of the tree, and she raised her hand to point to the moving black dots in the sky.
Qiao Youning looked up in the direction that her master pointed out, and saw that between the nine suns in the sky above the polar day, there was indeed a small black spot like a mosquito and a fly, which was moving rapidly......
Before Qiao Youning could ask anything more, the ground under her feet trembled without warning.
And in the depths of that "stigma", in the mountain space where the Mother Buddha is sealed...... A terrifying roar followed.
"Master, is that a star?"
"Yes."
"Is it a shooting star?"
"It's not."
"Then how can it move so fast......
Hearing Qiao Youning's question, the old man looked at the fast-moving black star and was silent for a long time, until the star completely disappeared from her sight......
"Maybe it's because it's in a hurry to get home."
With that, the old man turned around and walked in the direction of the temple, with a hint of uneasiness in his seemingly calm words.
"I'm in a hurry to get back to that place called 'Kakosha'......"
……
Eastern part of the continent.
Hanging City.
Under the eerie neon lights and shadows, anything can happen in the city's poor streets.
For example......
The high-ranking Fellows of the Society.
I would also squat in the alley and smoke with a few lowly and despicable wild dogs.
"......"
Li Mobai spit out half of the cigarette in his mouth and glared viciously at the few young people squatting beside him.
"We're fellow countrymen anyway! You're dealing with me with this cheap cigarette? This thing stinks when you smoke it! It's! ”
“……”
"Brother Li, ah no, no Master Li! Li Xianchang! The young man who spoke had short hair and was dressed as a spiritual guy, "Isn't this a newcomer...... It's not like you don't know how hard this city is......"
Compared to when he first came to Hanging City, Li Mobai at this moment has completely changed his dress.
Same as his master.
Wearing a special bulletproof carbon fiber robe made by the [Turing Research Society], the Bagua diagram breathing lamp looms behind it, and there is a rotating yin and yang fish on the hairpin used to tie the bun.
"I'll cover you from now on." Li Mobai stood up and stretched, and glanced back at the hundreds of broken corpses in the alleyway, "Whether in this world or in that world, Lao Tzu promises to let you eat and drink spicy food!" ”
Hearing this, everyone nodded one after another, and looking at Li Mobai's gaze, they couldn't help but become adored...... This guy is reliable!
Not only can you sneak into a place like the [Turing Workshop], but you can also make up a "Dao Fetal Prosthetic" from the Research Society in such a short period of time...... These are high-end goods that even the Parliamentarians can't afford to use!
What bullshit military-industrial prosthetics?
Compared to these top-notch goods produced in the research society, they are all scum!
"Brother Li, if you have the opportunity, you can help us pull the strings and see if we can enter the research meeting and mix with you......"
"I'll talk about it when I get back." Li Mobai replied casually, "I still have a bunch of troublesome things to do here, and I don't know ...... over there."
At this moment, a short-haired girl squatting on the edge suddenly exclaimed, pointing to the floating lane in the sky at the entrance of the alley and shouting.
"Look! Why did all those floating cars fall?! ”
Hearing this, Li Mobai subconsciously looked up, only to see that the floating cars that were still speeding a second ago seemed to be out of order, and they all lost power and fell from the sky......
"What's going on?" Li Mobai was surprised in his heart and hurriedly walked out of the alley.
It wasn't until this moment that he realized that it was not only the floating car that failed, but also the electronic instruments that dotted the streets and alleys of the city......
Whether it's the surveillance probes or traffic lights that the research societies arm, or the holographic projections placed outside the shops, or even the airships that pull banners in the sky to advertise the shopping festival......
Everything that has to do with electronics has gone out of order.
Including his eyes.
"What's going on?!!"
Since Li Mobai's eyes were gouged out by his master's hands, they have been replaced with the standard biological prosthetic eyes of the research society.
At this moment, his prosthetic eyes were glowing with a faint red light, and the picture in his eyes was gradually blurring, like a high temperature overload...... No, it's not!!
Just when Li Mobai wondered if his biological prosthetic eye was going to go down and go black, a strange face composed of hundreds of millions of pixel squares appeared in his eyes without warning......
More precisely.
This face appeared in the eyes of all the scholars of the research society at the same time.
Figure ...... Turing Tianzun ......" Li Mobai muttered, "Aren't you supposed to stay in the consciousness network terminal of the research society...... Why did you suddenly get here......
The azure face formed by the pixel blocks trembled violently, and it seemed that Li Mobai's voice was not heard.
He just kept repeating the same sentence in an electronically synthesized human voice, as if to warn all the Fellow alchemists.
Or a hint.
"Deep space is about to doom!! Kill Kill !! ”
"Deep space is about to doom!! Kill Kill !! ”
……
Above the wasteland.
The ancient ruins of the Yellow King's Courtyard have been completely destroyed.
The golden pillars of light that emerged from the ground and shot straight into the starry sky began to dissipate.
Seeing this scene, Chen Bofu led everyone and began to approach slowly.
They had been hiding in the sky two kilometers away before, and it was only now that they dared to approach the ancient ruins......
"Chen Jing will be fine." Yan Que was not like Kui Nan, who was nervous, she could see the anxiety hidden in the old man's eyes, and whispered comfort, "The pillar of light that appeared before may be a good omen." ”
"Hopefully......"
When Chen Bofu and the others stepped into the range of the ancient ruins again, the golden pillar of light had completely dissipated, and two figures had appeared silently at this moment where the original "courtyard gate" was located.
One of them they had met before, and he had saved their lives.
It's the monster in armor and holding a broadsword!
And the other person.
He wore a yellow robe as soft as silk, and a hood on his head that covered his face.
Even though he kept his head up, no one could see his face clearly, only the deep, empty nothingness in the hood.
"Oops, forgot...... You can't see me with a hood......"
Hearing this familiar voice, everyone invariably showed a surprised expression, especially Chen Bofu, who opened his mouth wide in surprise, looking like he was going to eat a child.
Hood off.
The fair-skinned and slightly youthful face came into everyone's eyes.
"It's all collapsed! Good thing we ran fast......"
Although the unfamiliar gold in Chen Jing's eyes had not completely dissipated, the smile on his face was still as warm as before.
Chen Jing's gaze swept over every face, and finally stopped at the old man.
"Grandpa, I'm back!"
Tomorrow there will be a gagenha~
Ask for a ticket~
