Chapter Ninety-Six: Like You
The remnant sun hangs obliquely above the sky, indicating that everything that belongs to today is coming to an end. The executive who belongs to the night is coming.
Under normal circumstances, in the royal city of the Black Rooster Country. This kind of desire is dark but not dark. It's often the busiest time, as it's the only time of the day when you're busy.
But today, the streets of the Wuji Country where almost ten carriages are parallel are extremely deserted, not to mention the various stalls, even the only three or two pedestrians are in a hurry, and the look on the face above the slightly lowered head is extremely nervous, and the eyes are constantly thinking about the surroundings. Anyone can see their palpitations.
Perhaps, if not necessary, they must not be willing to walk on this path at this point in time.
The reason why this is so is because they have just received a piece of news that shocked them, that is, at this special moment when a large number of people in the country of black chickens have disappeared, there are actually a few monsters who have forcibly entered the city.
In so many years, it is not that there have been no monsters in their black chicken country in the past. But the situation was very different then than it is now.
At that time, they had a national teacher who was strong in cultivation and had magical powers and spells against the sky.
At that time, they had a strong army, as well as a stable national situation.
But three years ago, the national teacher left them.
In recent months, countless compatriots have also disappeared without explanation.
But in this time of hunger and cold, the monster came.
It's really a physical occasional overnight rain......
All the people of the Wuji country have only sorrow in their hearts.
They knew that if this continued, the black chicken country would have no results at all. But knowing that this is the case, they have no choice at all.
From afar, one could not help but look at the splendid and huge buildings in the center of the city. But the complex brought them only sighs. Immediately, the eyes of hope fell on a mansion on the side of the complex.
It was a fairly ordinary mansion, boxy, with just the right amount of space, not too big and not too small. Among them, the building is quite ordinary, neither high-end atmosphere nor simple, if you have to give a word to describe it, then only use the word low-key.
There are many such mansions around the splendid and huge complex. That's not a lot, because the whole complex is completely wrapped in such a mansion. You can't see the end at all, it's all the same.
The reason why their cast gaze seems hopeful is only because of the people who live inside.
The mountain is not high, there are immortals, the water is not deep, and there are dragons.
Although today's Wuji country is almost in name only, no one denies the fact that its territory is vast. The reason why the Wuji Kingdom was able to accommodate such a huge territory was that almost a large part of the credit was attributed to one, that is, General Li, who led the army to conquer these lands.
Before the king of Wuji Country boarded the plane, everyone in the country thought that General Li would lead the army to conquer this land. But in the end, he did not change his title of General Li.
Although the Chinese people did not know why General Li did not board the plane, they did not hinder the respect and love of the Chinese people for him. This situation has only weakened until the appearance of the national teacher three thousand years ago, but green leaves are green leaves after all, and even if they are covered with dust, they can't change the fact that he is a green leaf.
Once the dust is purified, he will once again reveal his full color.
As the so-called Buddha relies on gold, why doesn't gold rely on Buddha to shine.
No matter who it is, there is a faint expectation on the faces of all the people who cast their eyes here, and the eyes that flash out of hope are vaguely as bright as the night.
But at this moment, the place that everyone expects to bring hope to them is not very peaceful.
In the most central hall of the mansion at this moment, an old man and a young man sat opposite each other.
There was a cup of tea on the table in front of them, and the curling white smoke that could barely condense was enough to prove that they had been sitting opposite each other for a long time.
In the hall, there was only the gentle sound of the evening breeze and the faint breathing of the two of them.
The white-haired middle-aged man held the teacup under the ivory ceramic in one hand, but he had no intention of picking it up, just stared at the young man with his head slightly bowed on the other side, wearing bright silver armor, even if he returned home, he did not leave his body.
"How is it possible, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really said that?"
frowned slightly, hardening the lines on his face more distinctly, and the teacup that had just been sent to his mouth was put back by him. The other free hand clenched tightly.
"Hmm. The white-haired middle-aged man nodded slowly. While nodding, he finally picked up the teacup in his hand and slowly took a sip of the tea full of coolness.
The tea was stained on the tongue, and an extremely bitter feeling spread instantly.
"Today I am at the gates of the city. Pursing his mouth tightly, the man whispered.
The words came into his ears, and he paused slightly. A vague feeling almost opened the pores of the whole body, and a sweet feeling vaguely swelled out. As if it can't be, the instinct of the body is constantly transmitting a sense of pleasure, if it is detached but real.
"It's rare. The white-haired middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "I really want to meet those monsters." ”
Glancing at him coldly, the young man let out a snort in his throat. After half a ring, he whispered: "When you really see him, you will definitely not think so." ”
With that, the man picked up the teacup on the table. In one gulp, he poured all the tea in the teacup into his mouth. In an instant, the frown was even worse.
"Oh, isn't that youkai still pretending?"
"Genuine. ”
"Since it's a real monster, it just so happens that you're at the gate of the city again. Then why are they in the city, and then you can still sit here?" The middle-aged man's widening eyes were full of incredulity, but there was a hint of a smile in the depths that was almost imperceptible.
"A genuine demon, a powerful demon, an ordinary demon. ”
The man closed his eyes slightly, thought about it seriously, and answered the middle-aged man's words in three sentences.
"Unusual demon?" the middle-aged man muttered to himself in a voice that only he could hear, and only after a long time did he ask, "What's not ordinary?"
"His gaze doesn't look like a demon. ”
"What is that like. ”
“...... Resemble...... Person. After thinking about it for a long time, the man gave such an uncertain answer.
"No, not like a human. However, in the face of the man's answer, the middle-aged man smiled and shook his head, and even under the man's stunned gaze, he said, "If I guess correctly, it should be like you." ”
Suddenly, the hall could hear a pin drop. Only the sound of breathing remained.
PS: The computer's monitor is completely broken, and this chapter was written in an Internet café.
