Chapter 2: The Mysterious Beggar
γγγγ In the evening, in a community in White Bird Town, there is a very ordinary two-story building.
"Mom and Dad, I'm back!" Ye Shi entered the house, untied his schoolbag, and walked to his room on the second floor.
"Hey, good son, you're back, your dad has a meeting and is going to come home late, wash your hands and let's eat first." At this time, a middle-aged beautiful woman wearing a cyan cloth skirt and holding a flame spatula with a gentle face immediately came out of the kitchen to stop Yeshi. "Oh, got it, I'm going to put my bag in my room. Ye Shi replied casually, with a low expression, and walked upstairs quickly. "Oops, using elemental energy in front of my son. It's all to blame for my confusion, and when I get paid, I forget everything... Seeing her son's expression, the beautiful woman suddenly realized her mistake and hurriedly withdrew the red-hot spatula in her hand.
As mentioned earlier, elemental energy is very popular in the human world, from making fires and cooking to driving flying cars, all of which use different levels of energy to pull applications.
A dinner was carried out in silence and melancholy...
βγγγ Mom, I want to go for a walk in the park in a while, and I guess I'll come back later, and you and Dad don't have to wait for me. This is the first and last sentence that Ye Shi said after dinner, and after speaking, he put down the dishes and chopsticks and opened the door with a heavy heart.
"Mom knows, remember to come back early!" "Yeshi's mother shouted as she looked at her son's back. But while cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, he thought to himself: "Alas, looking at the expression, my son should be depressed again." In fact, my son is very strong, and he works hard in class, that is, he is well-behaved and obedient, just physical... God is really blind, why not give him a healthy body. When the child's father comes back, let's enlighten him well. β
Hope Park is a community park not far from the Night Family. It is not big or small, and the area of more than 60,000 square meters sits in the center of each community. Originally, it was convenient for residents in various communities to relax and entertain, which can be regarded as developers to attract business opportunities or give benefits to accommodation residents. Fortunately, those developers still have some conscience in their hearts, and when they built the entire Hope Park, although the investment was a little less, at least they put some hard work into their minds. After construction, the overall environment is quite beautiful and chic, rockeries, flowing water, trees, small bridges, stone roads, and pavilions are all in it. So, our little nightoyo has loved this park since he was a child. Especially in the garden square at night, because there are few people here in the middle of the night, the garden is particularly quiet and comfortable, used to relax and relax the depressed bad mood, obviously a very good place.
The silver moon hangs head-on in the air, and the galaxy is like a reflection of the road. At midnight, the sky and the silver moon are hanging in the sky, and the galaxy is vast. The earth, the grass and insects chirping, the breeze is gentle, and there is a sense of peace and ease. Don't say it's a little night world.,It's estimated that a person has been in such a beautiful scenery for a long time.,No matter how bad the mood is, it's going to be very loose and loose.γγγ
At this moment, under the street lights of Hope Park, on a huge stone chair, Xiao Yeshi was bored with his hands behind his head, and his body was lying calmly on the seat, his eyes were peaceful and serene, looking up at the countless brilliant stars in the sky. Gradually, the mood soothed and rippled without waves, and the depressed mood disappeared. Half-ringing, he raised his left hand and stretched it out, intending to scratch it, and sighed to himself: "Waste, can't you even make a fire to cook... Alas, if the body continues like this, those higher element universities will definitely not be able to pass the examination, what should I do in the future? It's better to go to the country to be a soldier after high school, anyway, the army is in charge of food and housing, just rely on the mind to mix, maybe you can be a small head or something, it's better than eating at home, right? Or go to the big city to find a small job and try to do it, make do with it to support yourself? Big companies don't play, they must only accept college degrees or above, uh, dizziness... I don't want to... β
"Whoosh... β
Just when Ye Shi was thinking wildly, suddenly, a faint fluctuation ripple spread, and then the tips of Ye Shi's ears moved slightly, as if he heard someone whispering in the garden square in the distance, the sound was not too loud, but it was extremely intense. You must know that although the body of the night world does not have any energy at all, the five senses of the spirit have been stronger than others since he was a child, and even some adults are not as good as his ears.
"Hey!?It's been a long time since midnight.,There shouldn't be anyone hanging out in the depths of the garden.,Who will be in the middle of the night.γγγγ Ye Shi's face was surprised, his brows were furrowed, his ears moved slightly, and he suddenly got up and sat up. Immediately, curiosity surged in his heart, and he troted under his feet, and his figure scurried into a small path. After searching for a long time, suddenly the little head turned, and the eyes looked left and right, and then fixed their gaze on the garden square.
Curiosity was a trick, and Ye Shi quietly leaned over to the sound, lying on his stomach a few hundred meters away from the garden square, peeking into an unobtrusive bush. Although the night was dim, he could faintly see with the help of the faint street lamps in the distance, and about two or three hundred meters away from him, there were five figures standing quietly in the center of the square.
It's better for Xiao Yeshi not to look at it, but this look surprised him.
In the distance, four figures were wearing wide black robes and a hideous and terrifying ghost head mask. There were no faces to be seen, but through the hollows of the masks, there seemed to be a fierce light in their eyes. It is not difficult to guess that the moon is dark and the wind is high, the head is hidden, and the eyes are shining, and it is obvious that these four people are not good at stubble. However, the four people stood upright and silent like wax figures, forming a 'mouth' shape at the four corners of the east, west, north and south, and seemed to be tightly besieging the last person. And this last person is a bit strange, a middle-aged man who is quite sloppy all over, with shabby clothes, messy hair, earthy face, and sloppy beard, and at a glance he knows that he has not cleaned his personal hygiene for several months, and he feels no different from a street beggar. However, his eyes were bright, and his expression and temperament seemed to be fearless. At this time, he didn't say a word, and his eyes only stared coldly at the four strange ghost-headed masked people. For a while, none of these five people spoke or moved, and if their eyes were bad, they thought that the five people were five wooden pillars.
"Hey, I've seen this person in the middle, isn't it the beggar who was lying not far from my house a few days ago? I saw that he was pitiful, and gave him a few steamed buns to eat, but then I didn't seem to see him. Cut, there's something wrong with those four black-robed weirdos, they're all dressed up like this... I don't go to sleep in the middle of the night, why do I have nothing to do with a beggar?" Ye Shi looked at the middle-aged beggar and thought to himself.
The five of them stood in place for a long time, and finally a person wearing a golden ghost head mask first said in a deep voice: "Bai Langtian, the orphan of the former declining nobles, has been talented and talented since childhood, and was selected by the state to focus on training objects, he finished the first university at the age of nineteen, became a doctor of elementology at the age of twenty-one, entered the third scientific research department of the country at the age of twenty-five, and was promoted to the deputy director of the Ministry of Science and Technology at the age of thirty, and the current military rank is the rank of captain. It was not until after the incident in the east window of the Ministry of Scientific Research that he took the opportunity to steal important national materials and was discovered, injured many colleagues in the Ministry of Scientific Research and fled, and the whole person disappeared without a trace. I... I guess I'm not wrong, Captain Bai Langtian. β
"Hahaha, it deserves to be an elite squad cultivated by the organization. You guys are really amazing, I have been hiding in Tibet incognito for three years, even if I successfully escaped from the motherland and hid in a remote town in the Federation. I didn't think of the end ... I actually let a few of you find it, presumably my Bai Langtian is very worried about the old man of the long letter. Hearing this, the middle-aged beggar simply changed the dejected appearance of the beggar, raised his head proudly with his hands on his chest, and laughed to admit his identity.
Seeing that the other party admitted his identity, the golden ghost head man snorted coldly, a chill flashed in his eyes, and he said coldly: "It's a pity, Captain Bai Langtian, you are also an outstanding genius in the country, how much money does the country spend to train you? But hmph, you hateful traitor to the country, you actually dare to steal the precious objects that the country is researching, and injure your colleagues to take the opportunity to escape! It's just that since you have been encountered by our team, you are considered unlucky, quickly put down your resistance and be captured, and then obediently hand over the objects and return to China with us to accept the punishment of the organization. β
When he heard the word 'organization', the beggar Bai Langtian's body trembled obviously, and then his eyes narrowed slightly, and his heart was full of evil, and he shouted loudly and angrily with disdain: "Hmph, you people don't tell me any big truths, and then put some treason on my head, to put it bluntly, it's not for the benefit of the organization, Lao Tzu doesn't eat this today." Besides, it doesn't belong to you or the organization at all. You must believe me, they have made a serious mistake, although that thing is very important to study, but the potential danger is also huge, the organization can no longer force the study, otherwise you will destroy the country, and even the whole world will be doomed! Hehehehe, if you come one step late, I would have destroyed the things a long time ago, and it would be useless to catch me back. β
The golden ghost head waved his hand impatiently, didn't believe what he said at all, glanced at it coldly, and said indifferently: "Nonsense, as for whether it is dangerous or not, you don't need to think about this at all, in short, the organization has its own decision." I repeat, honestly hand over the things, and then obediently return home with us. If you refuse or dare to resist... Kill or kill!"
Feeling the thick evil aura of the other party, the beggar Bai Langtian was stunned at first, then the corners of his eyes narrowed slightly, the corners of his mouth twitched, as if he heard a big joke, and laughed and said: "It seems that there is no choice between you and me, if you want that thing, you must have a certain strength." Come on, needless to say, let me see how strong your elite squad really is!"
"Stubborn, do it!" A gust of wind blew, feeling the elemental energy restlessness in Bai Langtian's body, and a strong momentum instantly erupted in the golden ghost head's body, and finally the exit issued a general attack signal.
The matter has come to this point, and it is about to happen. Three flashes of swishing sounds, and before the golden ghost-headed man finished speaking, he saw the other three silver ghost-headed people kick under their feet, and immediately summoned the elemental energy in their bodies, and rushed towards the beggar Bai Langtian together. The speed of the dodge was so fast, Ye Shi swore in his heart that he was definitely stronger than all the teachers in his school. Then, to his surprise, under the illumination of the silver-white moonlight, he found that the fists of the three silver ghost-headed people were all looming with a light red halo.
"I'm dripping mom! The bracelet battle colors are actually red! This means... All three of them are level 7 masters!!"
Seeing this, Yeshi's eyes were terrified, and his heart beat violently. At the beginning, he remembered that when the teacher was giving a lecture at school, he once said such a paragraph. "Students, the primary cultivation methods of various elements have been explained in detail by the teacher in the past during class, but the teacher will not prompt them today. In short, if you want to cultivate hard in the future, you must know that the higher your affinity for the elements, the better it will be for your future physique. What the teacher is talking about today is the easiest way to distinguish the strength of the opponent in a battle between people. Ahem, when a person is fighting, the energy in his body will burst out, and ordinary people will form an elemental quality aura on his hand. Now the teacher will explain to you the difference between the color of the cultivation level and the rank. Green, yellow, blue, red, purple, the first to second grade colors are light green and dark green, the same three to four grades are light yellow and golden, to the fifth and sixth grades are blue and sky blue, and the seventh to eighth levels are already masters, then there are two kinds of fire red and blood red. Levels 9 and 10, hehe, that's the master of the masters, and these peerless powerhouses are generally in the purple category. As for the legendary heaven-level bracelet battle color... "Teacher, what color is it?" the students asked excitedly. "Yes ... Oh, in fact, the teacher doesn't know... Well, what's next... LET'S MOVE ON TO THE NEXT TOPIC ... "Oh... The students suddenly let out a sound of falling to the ground.
"Seventh-level! Seventh-level master!! I'm excited to think about it!"
There is no doubt that the so-called seventh-level masters, although they are not the strongest in the Human Continent, their strength is no longer underestimated. Nowadays, most of the graduates of various high-element universities are generally at the fifth or sixth level, and there are very few people who have reached the seventh level or above through hard cultivation. Even, occasionally, with extremely high talent, if someone can break through, they are all genius-type masters. In this regard, anyone like this kind of people will inevitably be unconditionally recruited by any big force, and the military will at least be a figure with the rank of captain or above. Ye Shi naturally knew in his heart that in the entire White Bird Town now, there seemed to be only two people, the Explosion Protection Captain and the dean of their school, both of whom were elemental energy powerhouses in the middle of the seventh level.
At the same time, when Ye Shi was still surprised in his heart, the fist strength of those three people had all fallen on Bai Langtian's chest. "Huh?" Maybe it's a sensory illusion, and the night world seems to vaguely notice that something is not quite right. With such a powerful fist attacking, the average person should choose to dodge. However, the beggar Bai Langtian didn't think so, in the face of the pressure of the three seventh-level masters, his expression remained unchanged at all, wasn't he afraid of the three seventh-level masters joining forces to attack?
"Puff Puff !!"
In just an instant, when the night world wondered why Bai Langtian didn't hide, three fists burst into his body, and Bai Langtian's entire body only trembled slightly, and it was like a sponge that took all the strength. After the sound of three muffled voices, his face showed a wicked smile, and he quickly retreated back with three fists, his speed Ye Shi eyes could no longer keep up, and in just an instant, he broke away from the encirclement of the four. With such a sudden change, the eyes of the three silver ghost heads were stunned at the same time, obviously they were all a little surprised, and by the time they reacted, it was too late to pursue Bai Langtian, who had already flown back twenty or thirty meters away. "A bunch of idiots, do you think Lao Tzu really wants to fight with you? hahaha goodbye uh... When did you catch up ... After playing the three of them, Bai Langtian laughed, and the energy in his body burst out again, and when he was about to turn around and run away, he found that the golden ghost head man had already stood silently in front of him, and his speed was even faster. Even Bai Langtian himself didn't pay attention to how his feet moved, and it seemed that his eyes appeared in a flash. At this moment, Bai Langtian's face changed suddenly, and his contemptuous smile turned into a solemn color. At the same time, what was even worse was that because his body was so sluggish, he delayed the best time to retreat, and also allowed the other three silver ghost heads to catch up smoothly.
There is no doubt that the beggar Bai Langtian can take three seventh-level masters to join forces, and his own strength cultivation must also be a seventh-level or above master. However, the golden ghost head man was obviously even more skilled, and he actually caught up with him quietly and quickly. This means that the latter's strength is better than Bai Langtian... Higher. "Hmph, don't dream, you have been in the organization for so long, you should know very well that the selection of the elite team is harsh, and there is no waste in it! So, you will definitely not be able to escape from the four of us, I advise you to obediently hand over the things to me, and then go back with us to ask the organization for forgiveness." "From the mask of the golden ghost's head, the voice was very cold.
Hearing this, Bai Langtian's face became even more solemn, and he immediately clenched his fists, and a touch of fierceness suddenly appeared in his eyes. After knowing that there was no hope for him to escape, he stared at the golden ghost man with dead eyes, gritted his teeth and shouted loudly: "Fart, I can't escape death if I go back to the organization, since your team is working hard to force each other, then, Lao Tzu will fight with you, let's die together! Storm, wind, stars, clouds, and cracked !!."
"Boom boomγγγγγγ β
Life and death, Bai Langtian is estimated to have let go, his face turned pale, and a touch of death intent flashed in his eyes, and then his body was accumulated, instantly forcing the surrounding airflow to increase greatly, and the violent and majestic elemental energy was used out urgently, and soon a small tornado was formed with him as the center, and the tornado became bigger and bigger, and in less than a while, it was converted into a violent strong wind array. Suddenly, the heavens and the earth were dark, as if swallowed by the breath of the netherworld, avoiding the stars and hiding the moon. Obviously, this Bai Langtian was already in despair, and all the energy power of his body was flowing through his body, forcing his clothes to burst in an instant, and the elemental power surging out, which showed that his strength was incomparably strong. In the strong wind array, a gust of wind roared, circling and circling, mighty and mighty. Even in the distance, Yeshi vaguely saw that there seemed to be countless hailstones drifting in the tornado, and the wind and waves blown by the strong wind were filled with a cold winter atmosphere.
"It's not good! It's actually a wind and water mixed energy martial art! It's amazing! Run!!" Seeing this, Ye Shi was shocked, and he basically didn't care about continuing to peep, and quickly got up and turned around to escape. But it was too late, how could his weak body withstand such a strong storm, but fortunately, the night world was far away from them, and it was not within the range of the energy martial arts. But after all, the strong wind was too fierce, and the wind speed instantly spread out of the garden square, and he was still blown by the strong wind, and his body shook for a while, and he staggered and couldn't stand still.
On the other hand, seeing Bai Langtian desperately making a move, the eyes of the three silver ghost-headed people gradually became frightened, but the golden ghost-headed man was still calmer, and the energy in his body surged wildly, and after quickly judging the power of the storm nebula crack in his mind, he hurriedly shouted at the other three silver ghost-headed people: "Quick! The attack power has exceeded the value of more than seven levels, and the strength of our team will set up the formation!"
"Boom !!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a dazzling and intense white light pierced the eyes of the night world, and the instinctive reaction made him cover his hands and close his eyes dizzy. Immediately afterward, the ground beneath my feet began to shake violently, and it felt as if the sky had collapsed. The strong wind made his face hurt, and Ye Shi staggered a few steps and suddenly fell to the ground, feeling that he was in pain everywhere in his body, as if he was about to die. In fright and helplessness, he could only grit his teeth fiercely, forcibly hold back his body that was about to fall apart, and lie on the ground and struggled to hold on. After half a ring, when everything stopped, the night world slowly opened his eyes and looked again. Good fellow, everything in front of him made him stunned for a long time! The former garden square has long since ceased to exist, and in its place, a large pit with a diameter of 30 meters and a depth of about six or seven is presented in front of him, and the whole area of the tunnel is still slowly emitting white smoke, and the gravel on the ground is like stone crystal scales, which is simply a messy scene. In the middle of the big pit, Bai Langtian, a beggar who was still majestic before, was lying on the ground on his laurels at this moment, and there were four people in shabby clothes and white smoke all over his body standing beside him, which were the four mysterious people wearing ghost masks.
Secretly looking at the scene in the distance, Ye Shi's face was already dumbfounded. You must know that the power of this icy storm is a shock that I have personally experienced. And almost attacked at the center point, the four ghost masked people are not dead yet, which shows how strong the strength of the four of them is?
Taking advantage of the fact that everyone's attention was on Bai Langtian, Ye Shi hurriedly hid his small body behind a stump tree, and cold sweat flowed out of his small face little by little.
"Fortunately, it was so dangerous to resist in time! I almost put my life into it! Damn, if it weren't for the fact that this country is not allowed to carry real weapons, with the strong strength of our team, we would have done it a long time ago, why the hell did you go to such great lengths. Among them, a silver ghost-headed man was the most seriously injured, his left hand covered his chest, the blood in the corner of his mouth had leaked out along the edge of the mask, and he viciously kicked Bai Langtian, who was already unconscious, and scolded.
"Shut up! Don't forget our mission, leave all the weapons outside the customs, so that the Merk Federation will not notice us, do you think they are fools? If we bring weapons into the country, it is estimated that we will not even be able to get out of the airport!"
"It's the head, the subordinates understand!" the silver ghost head seemed to be afraid of him, and hurriedly replied one by one with their heads bowed respectfully.
In the middle of the sound, after another silver ghost head man finished searching Bai Langtian, he stood up and said helplessly: "Head, that thing is indeed not on him, what should we do next?"
Hearing the report of his subordinates, the golden ghost head's eyes rolled, pondered for a while, and then said slowly: "He also knows very well that the organization's punishment of betrayers is too cruel, so he is desperate to force us to die. I was careless. Oh... It's too noisy here, it's not appropriate to stay here for a long time, it is estimated that the explosion-proof team in the town will come soon, you take him, let's withdraw first, as long as people are afraid that things can't be found in our hands. β
In this way, one of them carried the faint Bai Langtian on his back, and the four of them rushed towards the southwest together. The next moment, there was nothing left in the park except a huge deep pit.
It took about five minutes for the four of them to fly away before Ye Shi slowly crawled out from behind the bushes. Xin said: "It's really amazing! What kind of cattle are these, listening to their tone, they don't seem to be like my Melke Federation, and their strength is so terrifying! It's really thrilling tonight... β
"Squeak, squeak... At this moment, sirens suddenly sounded in the distance of Hope Park, and it was obvious that the earth-shattering explosion just now had touched the town's explosion prevention team, and it probably wouldn't be long before the place should be overcrowded. "Ah, the explosion-proof team is coming, I'd better go home early. If they catch it, it will be troublesome, and it will not be clear when the time comes. Ye Shi naturally didn't want to get into trouble, his brows furrowed slightly, his teeth bit his tongue lightly, and he immediately turned around and was about to run towards his house.
Suddenly, with a whin, a strange ripple fluctuation came, both familiar and unfamiliar, and suddenly attracted the attention of the night world. Immediately, as if he had fallen into an evil spirit, he walked over slowly, spared several laps, and walked a distance of about a few hundred meters, and found a purple light under a street lamp. When I looked down, it turned out to be a strange necklace.
"Hey, hey, hey, it's beautiful, nice little thing, since there's no owner, then I'm welcome. Naturally, you don't have to be polite to take the sheep by the hand, and the little face of the night world only flickered, and then immediately smiled, and then put the necklace into his pocket, and then turned around and ran homeγγγγγ
