The neat village of Qianmo turned into ruins at this moment.

From time to time, you can see the remnants of haystacks, wooden tables, and wooden spoons.

Dust drifted through the air like a winter mist.

Zhou Zhen pulled the "nine-tailed fox" and walked with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

After walking for a while, the "Nine-Tailed Fox" suddenly stopped, looked at Zhou Zhen on his side suspiciously, and asked very strangely: "Wait!" ”

"Who are you?"

She tilted her head slightly, her eyes were full of doubts, as if because of a memory problem, she just reacted and wanted to ask Zhou Zhen's identity.

Zhou Zhen looked sideways at the "nine-tailed fox" and couldn't help frowning slightly.

I was about to use [Overclocking Interference] to directly transmit the information on the other party's note to the other party's mind, but after thinking about it, I immediately ruled out this practice.

On the note of the "Nine-Tailed Fox", the five objectives of this "Ash Order" mission were recorded, the first was to determine whether this side of the space-time tunnel was "past" or "future";

the second is to kill an aborigine;

The third is to kill a compatible member of another faction who has also crossed over;

The fourth is to choose an indigenous person to teach mathematics;

The fifth is to complete a "digital" surgery......

To be honest, now he has completed the first three tasks, but there is nothing.

Wrong!

The fourth task, he also completed.

The watchdog of the village chief's family is also a native of this time and space.

Only the last task, to do a "digital" operation, was not completed, and there was no condition to do it at all!

Yes, if you tell the "Nine-Tailed Fox" the information on the note now, the other party will definitely choose to stay and go for that operation...... It's too risky for him!

What a waste too!

After all, the combat power of the "Nine-Tailed Fox" is so high, rather than letting the other party do things for the "Ash Order", it is better to keep it for yourself for the time being.

If you encounter any danger next, you can let the "nine-tailed fox" help you carry it first......

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhen changed the fourth goal and the fifth goal on the note in his heart.

The fourth goal is to change him to be the "doctor" of the "Ash Order", and listen to him well;

The fifth goal is changed to protect him as soon as he encounters danger.

Except for these two goals, the rest of the note is intact.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Zhen used [Overclocking Interference], and suddenly, an overwhelming number of numbers, symbols, graphics, and theorems appeared in front of his eyes...... In the dark, as if it had turned into a bridge, spanning the consciousness of him and the "nine-tailed fox", Zhou Zhen's heart moved, and he immediately transmitted the revised content of the note to the mind of the "nine-tailed fox".

The "Nine-Tailed Fox" looked blank for a while, and after less than half a second, she had already returned to normal and successfully absorbed the information from the [Overclocking Interference].

The next moment, the fox ears and fox tail on her body immediately disappeared and returned to an ordinary human woman, and then, she looked at Zhou Zhen, showed a very respectful expression, and asked, "Doctor, what are we going to do next?" ”

Seeing that the "nine-tailed fox" didn't doubt his meaning at all, Zhou Zhen suddenly felt certain in his heart, although he said that he was now pretending to be a "ash" doctor, and after he went out, once he was discovered by the "nine-tailed fox", the other party would definitely settle accounts with him, but it didn't matter!

According to the current memory of the "nine-tailed fox", after going out, he will definitely forget everything, and he will not remember that he pretended to be a "doctor" at all!

What happened here at that time, didn't he just make it up by himself?

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhen said briefly: "Leave this space-time tunnel first." ”

As he spoke, he continued to pull the "nine-tailed fox" and walked forward.

The "nine-tailed fox" did not resist this time, and kept up with Zhou Zhen's footsteps very obediently.

Soon, the two came to the village chief's house again.

Due to the battle between Zhou Zhen and Sammy Draxler, almost the entire village was razed to the ground, and the earthen wall of the village chief's yard and the three thatched houses inside were all destroyed by the aftermath of the battle.

The hedges surrounding the vegetable beds are crooked, and the straw-covered winter vegetables inside are covered with a thick layer of dust.

The pond used for laundry was also muddy, covering a small half of the pond with collapsed and churning sediment.

The whole environment is gray, except for the big persimmon tree, which still stands quietly by the pool.

The difference is that this big persimmon tree, originally only in the treetops out of reach, only hung a few orange-red persimmons, but at the moment it seems to be an old tree rejuvenated, with dots of fruit hanging on the huge canopy.

Feel free to scan it, there are at least several hundred!

At this moment, there are already two people who have come here first.

One of them was the member of the "four-dimensional utopia" who had just gone to the blacksmith shop to talk to Zhou Zhen, "Crown Eagle".

The "crown eagle" stood under the persimmon tree, raised his head, and stared at the fruit of the tree without blinking.

In a clearing some distance from him, stood a ragged villager, an observer of the "Evening Judgment".

The observer looked cautious, glancing only occasionally at the tree, and most of his attention was watching the "crown eagle" every move, as if he was very wary of him.

Sensing that someone was coming, both the "crown eagle" and the observer turned their heads and looked at Zhou Zhen and the "nine-tailed fox".

Zhou Zhen also looked at the "crown eagle" and the observer with burning eyes.

In such a look-at, Zhou Zhen came to a stop not far from the "crown eagle", then turned his head to look at the observer, and asked with a smile: "'Ares', has not come out yet?" ”

The observer frowned, looked at Zhou Zhen, who was purely constructed of "numbers", and did not reply.

He was indeed waiting for "Ares", but ......

The rules in the village were suddenly disrupted, and it was obvious that some test subjects had gone berserk.

At that time, he was very adamant that it must be an experimental subject of the "Ash Order".

But now, the test subject of the "Ash Order" is in front of him, and nothing has happened at all.

The same is true of "four-dimensional utopia".

"Twelve Sages" This time, only one person came......

Just by using the elimination method, it can be calculated that the rampaging test subject at that time is most likely "Ares"!

"'Ares', you can't get out."

At this time, the "crown carving" that had been standing under the persimmon tree suddenly spoke.

Zhou Zhen looked at the "crown carving", but before he could speak, the observer had already quickly said: "Not necessarily! ”

"It's just a rampage."

"The time for 'Ares' to release the 'Digital Forest' has not exceeded the limits of our internal testing."

"It is still possible for him to reclaim the 'digital forest' at present."

The "crown eagle" shook his head, looked up again at the canopy full of fruits above, and said calmly: "When the ninth sage of the 'Twelve Sages' died just now, there was one more human face fruit on this tree. ”

"Before the death of the Ninth Sage, I did experiments."

"As long as people in the village die, whether it is the aborigines or those of us who have crossed over, it will increase the number of human face fruits on the trees."

"I have already calculated that the population of this village is four hundred and twenty-five people in total."

"The current fruit on this big persimmon tree is four hundred and eighteen."

"The seven human face fruits that are missing are the four of us here, as well as an official high-level compatible, a special researcher, and the youngest son of the village chief's family, Ji Li."

"The official two should be almost there."

Hearing this, Zhou Zhen, the "Nine-Tailed Fox" and the observers immediately looked towards the tree.

The canopy of the big persimmon tree, as if festive, is full of heavy fruits, however, these fruits are ordinary persimmons, not at all like the so-called human face fruit, the orange-red color gives people a warm feeling, and it is particularly lively in winter.

But the number of fruits is indeed four hundred and eighteen.

The meaning of "crown carving" is obvious, these fruits on the tree correspond to the number of villagers in this village.

All those who die in the village, the "equation" will be transformed into another form, appearing in the tree.

It is very likely that the two disappeared companions on the other side were forced to disappear in order to verify this phenomenon......

The observer frowned suddenly, if "Ares" really had an accident, his situation would be very bad!

Because, he didn't record any data before the destruction of the test subject!

This is a major dereliction of duty in the organization!

At this time, Zhou Zhen said simply: "I don't count." ”

"Of the seven fruits that are missing, there will be no fruit corresponding to me."

As if thinking of something, the "crown eagle" immediately nodded and said, "Yes, what you are using now is not the body in this village. ”

"Well, 'Ares' is indeed still alive."

After Zhou Zhen heard it, he shook his head and said, "It's still impossible." ”

"There is a 'Fourth Ladder' compatible person named 'Lu Xingkuan', and he can get out alive this time."

"One of the seven missing fruits corresponds to the 'wide road'."

How wide is the road?

The observer and the "crown eagle" quickly remembered the name.

This is not because of how famous Lu Xingkuan is.

It was the other party who left the space-time tunnel alive, although he died in the end, but this name became a binding message of the space-time tunnel.

This time, all the compatibles, whether they were official members or illegal organizations, had collected this most basic piece of information before entering the space-time tunnel.

Just thinking about it, in the smoke and dust that was still churning in the distance, there were two more figures, striding towards this direction.

The people under the persimmon tree suddenly stopped talking, and looked at the two figures in unison.

Liao Yonghong and Shao Yuzhi came to the open space near the big persimmon tree and stopped cautiously.

After a faint confrontation for a moment, Liao Yonghong looked around at the four people who arrived first, and asked in a calm voice: "'Ash Order', 'Dusk Judgment', 'Four-dimensional Utopia'?" ”

The "crown eagle" smiled playfully and said, "What? ”

"You want to arrest us?"

Liao Yonghong shook his head slightly, and said lightly: "Arresting members of the illegal organization is the task of colleagues outside. ”

"Our mission this time is to investigate this space-time tunnel."

The observer snorted, knowing in his heart that the official member's words were entirely due to the subject of the "Ash Order".

The subject of the "Order of Ashes" has been digitized entirely.

It's so abnormal that it can be seen with the naked eye!

There are only two people in the official now, and there are no high-tech weapons to rely on to suppress illegal organizations, so of course it is impossible to do it here.

However, at the beginning, no one had "digital energy", and he and the black-clothed messenger were chased and killed by the official members more than one street!

At that time, the other party did not mean "not in his position, not in his politics".

Although very resentful, the observer said nothing.

The "crown eagle" stared at Liao Yonghong for a moment, then looked at the others, made sure that there was no need to fight, and also withdrew his gaze and continued to look at the canopy above his head.

In order to prevent too much attention, Zhou Zhen was also silent, the "nine-tailed fox" on his side was now very respectful to him, and seeing that the "doctor" had no intention of speaking, he also raised his head slightly, followed Zhou Zhen's gaze, and looked at the fruits on the canopy.

Liao Yonghong and Shao Yuzhi stood a little farther away, silent.

For a while, there was silence in the ruins under the big persimmon tree, only the north wind howled by.

Everyone, it seems, is waiting for something.

※※※

The night is like a curtain, and the bright moonlight flows down coldly, spreading everything out of a brilliant frost color.

Under the silver moonlight, the whole village was intact, with no signs of destruction.

In the courtyard of the village chief's house, Ji Li's was standing motionless, not far from him, lying on the ground on the side of the road, also motionless, not knowing whether he was dead or alive.

The thatched hut with closed doors and windows was intact, and the straw on the eaves had to shrink in the wind.

The vegetable furrows surrounded by the hedges swayed with the north wind and made a few "whoosh".

There is still thin ice in the pond, and the persimmon trees by the pond are tall and have a jagged crown.

In the spacious courtyard, Ji Li's immature little face did not have any expression, the eye sockets were empty, the eyeballs had been gouged out, and the empty eye sockets were like a stream of water, and dense blood words appeared.

The blood words slipped down like blood tears, and gradually, with the passage of time, the blood words began to stop, as if the tears had dried up.

The blood word seemed to begin to ebb, from his eye sockets, from his cheeks, from his body, from his feet...... Faded away with a bang.

With him as the center, the blood words in this area quickly disappeared and disappeared.

Ji Lixi suddenly turned his head and "looked" at the persimmon tree next to him.

The tall fruit trees swayed slightly in the night with the cold wind, and the trees were bare, without a single fruit.

However, with the "gaze" of the civet dog, the color of this persimmon tree seems to begin to darken, as if there is an almost identical ghost in its place, which is overlapping with it.

As the overlap progressed, the outlines of the fruits began to emerge in the canopy, which at first were just faint shadows, and soon began to turn into reality.

It's as if two worlds are beginning to coincide.

Ji Lixi walked under the tree step by step.

Smack!

A persimmon that had just solidified suddenly fell off automatically, fell on the soft mud ground, rolled a little twice, and came to Ji Li's feet.

Ji Lixi bent down to pick up the fruit and walked to the side of the road line not far away.

Lu Xingkuan was unconscious, and only by looking closely could he see that his chest had a very faint rise and fall.

Ji Lixi pinched his cheeks, forced him to open his mouth, and fed the persimmon little by little.

Soon, Lu Xingkuan's eyelids moved and he opened his eyes.

Ji Li took out the hemp rope that tied the guard dog before and put it around Lu Xingkuan's neck.

The immature children's voices echoed in the night of the north wind's call.

"There are a lot of monsters in the village."

"Let's go get rid of them......"

Ask for a commuter pass!
