Chapter 67
After talking with Bai Ze, Xiao Zhuo walked out of the office, but did not go far, but stood with his back against the wall and waited for Zheng Qing.With Zheng Qing's ability, it doesn't take too long to use the demon method to go back to Longshan.
Sure enough, not long after, the elevator made a soft "ding" sound and stopped at Xiao Zhuo's floor.
Zheng Qing walked out of the elevator, saw Xiao Zhuo and said solemnly: "Chi You disappeared."
Xiao Zhuo stared fixedly at Zheng Qing, but didn't reply.Zheng Qing has sharp eyebrows and star eyes, handsome and three-dimensional facial features, like a knife cut, the outline of his childhood can be vaguely seen, but after all, he has changed too much, and his personality is completely different, it is difficult to combine him with Ah Qiu.
But he knew that Zheng Qing was Ah Qiu.Bai Ze said that Zheng Qing's memory is slowly recovering, and one day he will be able to fully remember the past.
"Why don't you talk?" Zheng Qing's expression softened, and he approached Xiao Zhuo with a smile and asked, "Why do you keep looking at me?"
Xiao Zhuo blurted out: "Look at you."
Zheng Qing didn't know what he thought of, coughed in a feigned seriousness, and said with an unnaturally low expression: "I'll let you take a good look at it when I go home, you can look at it however you want."
After Bai Ze finished speaking with Xiao Zhuo, he seemed exhausted, and soon fell into a deep sleep. The door of the room was closed, and Zheng Qing couldn't see him again.
"Is it really impossible to change the limit?" Zheng Qing looked calm, but still couldn't hide his sadness.
He looked at Xiao Zhuo, asking this question was not only worried about Bai Ze, but also worried about Xiao Zhuo.He had also heard Xiao Zhuo mention that the end was approaching, and Tiandao seemed to be determined to put Xiao Zhuo to death.As Xiao Zhuo, he was born from chaos together with Fuxi, Nuwa, and Haotian. He was transformed by heaven and earth. Now Fuxi and other ancient gods have long since died, but Xiao Zhuo is the only one who is still alive.
Xiao Zhuo took Zheng Qing's hand and clasped his palm tightly, his tone was free and easy, but his eyes showed reluctance: "When a person reaches his limit, his soul returns to the nether world, and the same goes for monsters. Although life is long, there will always be an end. The way of heaven governs all beings, and everything has its own reason."
Under the law of heaven, all living beings are ants.
Zheng Qing lowered his head, his eyes were full of resignation, stubborn and obstinate.
Xiao Zhuo looked at him, in a daze, as if he had seen the scene when he played tricks on A Qiu and caused him to fall into the mud pit a long time ago. At that time, A Qiu got up from the mud pit, covered in dirt, and lowered his head obstinately, Eyes misty, rolling tears.
When he was crying, he was wronged, he looked like a pitiful little boy, he didn't make a sound at all, but the tears rolled down in big ones.At that time Xiao Zhuo called him Little Crying Bag, because he was so good at crying that he even doubted whether the other party was made of water.
Thinking of this, Xiao Zhuo suddenly felt guilty, so he lowered his head and leaned over to peck Zheng Qing's lips, secretly thinking that he should coax the other party, after all, Zheng Qing looked like he was about to cry.
Now I have to seize the time to show more performance and try my best to prove that he will be a good spouse, so that after confessing, I can keep Zheng Qing's heart.
Zheng Qing looked at Xiao Zhuo in surprise, of course it is impossible to cry.
Xiao Zhuo kissed and relieved thousands of sorrows, Zheng Qing's lips raised up uncontrollably, and he couldn't suppress it, he asked for a long time: "What did Bai Ze tell you?"
"I made some bad predictions." Xiao Zhuo withdrew his smile, "Bai Ze has seen the future."
Bai Ze saw that the sky was torn apart, and the turbulent and rolling black mist descended from the sky, covering the world.The black mist is cold and sticky, flooding into the human world overwhelmingly, and then rushing into the human body.Human beings killed each other, and the earth was devastated in an instant, buildings collapsed, blood flowed into rivers, and corpses were everywhere, as if the end of the world had come.
Zheng Qing's face was ugly: "Is there still a big monster in the upper world?"
After Zhuanxu ascended to heaven, the human world and the upper world could no longer communicate with each other. Few monsters knew what was going on in the upper world.It was also after that that the aura of heaven and earth began to dry up, and the way of heaven imposed heavy sanctions on the monster race.
"Zhuanxu's power to the sky is actually because of Bai Ze's prophecy. If the ladder of heaven is not cut off, all the monster races will be destroyed under the thunder disaster. After cutting the ladder of heaven, the perception of heaven's perception of the human world will also weaken. Except for the powerful Apart from the big monsters, the little monsters can escape the punishment of the heavens by hiding or reducing their sense of existence. This is a joint decision made by Zhuan Xu and Bai Ze, in order to preserve the remaining power of the monster clan."
"As for the upper realm, they have all been wiped out under the thunder calamity long ago. Those things are not so much monsters as evil spirits. They have wandered in the upper realm of nothingness for thousands of years. Once they come to the human world, the consequences will be disastrous."
Zheng Qing didn't dare to answer the question: "Chi You wants the demon clan to regain control of the human world?"
Xiao Zhuo was noncommittal, and sneered, "He has a pretty good plan, but against the sky, even if the demon clan regains control of the world, can the heaven let the demon clan go? I'm afraid it will only anger the heavenly dao and make the demon clan disappear completely. Yu Tiandi. Not only did he not do it for the Yaozu, but he harmed the Yaozu, stupid!"
Zheng Qing pondered: "But now that the human world and the upper world have long been unable to communicate, how will he get rid of evil spirits?"
In ancient times, there was a ladder between the human world and the upper world. Both mortals and monsters can go to the upper world through the ladder, and gods can also descend to the mortal world through the ladder.
But when the jedi reached the heavens, the ladder in Kunlun Mountain was destroyed by Zhuanxu, and the Jianmu ladder in Duguangzhiye was also destroyed by Zhuanxu sent Chonghe Li.
There is no longer a ladder in the world that can connect to the upper realm.
"I don't know." Xiao Zhuo shook his head: "But Chi You must have planned a long time ago. He has been lurking in secret for so long, and he is probably preparing for this matter. The five-color stone must be in his hands now."
How the five-color stone was swallowed by the monster eater is unknown for the time being, but what can be guessed is that Xuan Rong was instructed by Chi You to follow the monster all the way and let it devour the monster for the purpose of the five-color stone.
The five-color stone is an ancient artifact, and it was refined by Nu Wa. It not only contains the power of heaven and earth, but also can bring the dead back to life. It is definitely not a good thing to fall into the hands of Chi You.
While talking, Xiao Zhuo and Zheng Qing had already walked back to the office. Just after taking a breath, Zhu Yu broke in suddenly, and said urgently, "Zheng Chu, brother Xiao, it's not good, Jia Something happened to Yunhai!"
Jiayunhai is located in the north of Haicheng, and it is an important transportation hub in Haicheng. The accident happened at the largest port in Haicheng.According to Zhu Yu's introduction, a ship full of cargo was supposed to arrive at the port at noon, but it was delayed. At first, everyone didn't think much about it. They just thought that something was delayed, and they planned to wait.
Unexpectedly, after waiting for more than two hours, the freighter still did not come. During this period, the staff kept trying to contact the crew, but the phone couldn't get through.
"So the port urgently sent a ship to search and rescue, but when the search and rescue ship arrived at the location of the freighter, something happened. Everyone realized that something was wrong, and the coast guard contacted us. This kind of thing happened before, usually The monsters in the sea were causing trouble, so I sent two monsters to check, but now, those two monsters are also missing."
The Special Warfare Department of the Demon Control Bureau is in charge of field work, and is usually dispatched by Hu Wanwan. Only when encountering a big demon or something that cannot be solved will he come to ask Zheng Qing for instructions.
"Why did you come here?" Zheng Qing said displeased, "Where is Hu Wanwan?"
Zhu Yu cried and said in panic, "This is also the worst thing. After the two monsters disappeared, Wan Wan and Tao An also rushed to the port, but now, they have lost contact."
Even Hu Wanwan and Tao An fell for that monster, the nature of this matter is extraordinary.
Xiao Zhuo immediately said: "Let's go to the port and have a look."
Zheng Qing nodded, stood up and set off for the port with Xiao Zhuo.
Because of the continuous disappearances, the port was in chaos, and the order was barely maintained under the dispatch of the coast guard. There were many people watching by the port.
In order to ensure the safety of other ships, the sea has currently adopted no-navigation measures, so the sea is very wide and calm at first glance.
Zheng Qing found the captain in charge of the incident.The captain’s name was Chu Yong. Knowing that Zheng Qing and Xiao Zhuo were not ordinary people, he first told them about the situation, which was no different from what Zhu Yu knew, but in much more detail. Then he took them on board the speedboat and went to where the accident happened the sea area.
"The accidents all happened in this sea area," Chu Yong sent the laptop in front of Xiao Zhuo and the others.On the computer screen is the map of Jiayun Sea’s sea area, with several small dots lit up on it, which is the location of the crew involved in the accident, “This place is very evil, whether it is the people we sent or your two previous colleagues, everyone Contact was suddenly lost without any effective message.”
What he meant was to remind Xiao Zhuo and Zheng Qing, after all, even if their colleagues got the point, they might not be able to handle it.
Xiao Zhuo glanced at the coordinates, smiled at Chu Yong, and didn't say much.
The speedboat broke through the water and drove all the way, and after about half an hour, it arrived at the sea area where the accident happened.At first glance, there is no difference in this sea area. The surrounding field of vision is wide, and the sea water is blue from a distance, almost in line with the sky.The surrounding area is very quiet, and the sea water has no waves, it looks like a pool of stagnant water.
Chu Yong's heart hung high, and he couldn't hide his nervousness. He reminded: "The coordinates of the wrecked ship are in this sea area, both front, back, left, and right."
After he finished speaking, he glanced at Xiao Zhuo and Zheng Qing, and found that their expressions were very calm, without any sense of tension and crisis, as if they were not a terrifying sea area that could eat people, but some beautiful scenic spots.
Somehow, under their influence, Chu Yong was not so nervous.
Suddenly, a wind blew up on the surface of the sea. The wind was strange, as if it had arisen out of thin air, and it made the clothes rattle.
As the wind picked up, the sea water in front also rippled, being pushed towards this side.Looking at the sea water, Chu Yong always felt that something was not right, as if the piece of sea water that was pushed over existed alone, even if they were in this sea together, it gave people an extremely inconsistent sense of separation, and... …
"Isn't that piece of sea water too dark?" Chu Yong was surprised.
It was indeed very black. The seawater that came blowing in with the wind was as black as ink that could not be melted. It was impossible to see through it, and it was impossible to detect what was hidden in it.
But Chu Yong instinctively sensed the danger.
Xiao Zhuo suddenly turned his head and glanced at Zheng Qing: "You feel it too?"
"En." Zheng Qing nodded, his eyes fixed on the large piece of seawater coming in.
Chu Yong was at a loss when he heard it: "Sense... what do you feel?"
"Monster Qi. It's very strong, and it's hidden in the black water." When Xiao Zhuo said this, his expression was relaxed, and the phrase "very strong" was very unconvincing, "Do you know what that black water is?"
Chu Yong shook his head, looking at Xiao Zhuo humbly asking for advice.
"There is water in the north of Kunlun, its power cannot overcome mustard, so it is called weak water."
It's no wonder that those ships sink, even goose feathers can't float on weak water, let alone ships.
Chu Yong immediately reacted when he heard the words, and then looked at Heishui with fear in his eyes, and stammered, "Then we have to run quickly?"
"What are you running for? We're here to settle this matter?" Xiao Zhuo glanced at Chu Yong, then smiled and said, "But you can go."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Zheng Qing tacitly. Zheng Qing hung his body in the air, and raised his long sword, pointing the tip of the sword at the black water.Xiao Zhuo took the opportunity to push the speedboat, making it turn around with Chu Yong and gallop towards the coast.
Heishui seemed to be aware of Chu Yong, and wanted to pounce from the side, but Zheng Qing stopped him with a sword.The tip of the sword hit the water surface, and a powerful force was instantly released, and the black water retreated a few meters in an instant.
"Come out." Xiao Zhuo stared at the black water with sharp eyes, as if seeing the monster hiding in it through the black water.
The black water was silent for a moment, then suddenly violently churned, and then broke away from the sea water, forming a huge wave that crashed towards Xiao Zhuo and Zheng Qing.
The huge waves were wrapped in powerful and majestic monster power, smashing down like a solid body, Zheng Qing sacrificed several long swords, and formed a resistance to the black water, the two forces collided suddenly, and the strong qi swayed around.Standing in mid-air, Xiao Zhuo stretched out his hand a little bit forward before the black water hit him, and the powerful monster power instantly formed a barrier, blocking the progress of the black water.
But after a while, Heishui was defeated and retreated suddenly, and then out of the black water, a monster shaped like a cow with a red body, horse feet, and a human face emerged.Standing on the top of the black water, the monster stared at Xiao Zhuo and Zheng Qing with gloomy narrow eyes, and roared at them sharply, like a baby crying.
Xiao Zhuo covered his ears and said with disgust: "It's really ugly."
Zheng Qing's long sword hanging in front of him approached like a threat, and he said coldly, "Did you hear that? Shut up."
The monster tuned in resentfully, originally trying to frighten the two big monsters opposite, but it didn't seem to have any effect at all.
"Jiao Jiao?" Xiao Zhuo looked at the monster: "Are you still alive?"
According to the Beishan Jing, there is a beast, which looks like a cow, but has a naked body, a human face, and horse feet. It is called Yuyu, and its sound is like a baby. It is a cannibal.
Jiao Jiao was originally a god with the head of a dragon and a human face. Later, because of a dispute with the god who threatened the second god of the god, he was killed by the second leader and Wei together.He was well-behaved and thoughtful, and was highly valued by the Yellow Emperor. After his death, the Yellow Emperor was furious. He not only executed the second leader and danger who killed him, but also asked the wizard to use the elixir to revive him.
It's just that after Jiao Jiao was rescued, his temperament changed drastically, becoming fierce and violent, and slaughtered many human beings. Seeing this, the Yellow Emperor ordered Hou Yi to shoot him to death with a magic arrow. By the water lake, the body also fell into it. Unexpectedly, he is still alive.
"You recognize me?" Jiao Jiao asked.
"Well, we've seen it before." Xiao Zhuo reminded: "Have you forgotten? It's under Guilong Mountain."
Qiao Jiao stared at Xiao Zhuo, and suddenly remembered, it seemed that the memory was too tragic, he quickly backed away instinctively, his voice trembling, he did not return to the arrogance just now: "You...you are the monster who spilled my blood ?!"
Not long after he was resurrected at that time, on his way back to Longshan, a monster suddenly ran out, beat him up without a word, and then took his blood and left.At first, Jiao Jiao still wanted to resist, but the more he resisted, the more he hit him. Later, he gave up struggling and let him do what he did.
Hearing Jiao Jiao's cry, Zheng Qing turned to look at Xiao Zhuo with strange eyes.
"It's all in the past, so don't mention it." Xiao Zhuo avoided Zheng Qing's eyes and said.He went to Jiao Jiao because the other party's blood had the effect of elixir, and it happened that Ah Qiu was injured at that time, in order to make him recover faster, Xiao Zhuo came up with this trick.
Jiao Jiao looked at Xiao Zhuo, then at Zheng Qing, then suddenly got into the black water and turned around and ran away.
Zheng Qing knew that Xiao Zhuo didn't like water, and just as he was about to let him wait for him, Xiao Zhuo rushed to chase after him. At this time, he didn't care so much, and even turned his head to look at Zheng Qing in doubt when he walked away, like Asking: What are you still doing?
Zheng Qing quickly chased after him.
Jiao Jiao used the black water to swim extremely fast all the way in the sea. He did not run away far away, but kept going deeper into the bottom of the sea. As the depth increased, the sea pressure became stronger and stronger, but for them Apparently it doesn't matter.
Xiao Zhuo and Zheng Qing were also chasing very quickly, the sea water kept rushing to both sides, the fish creatures seemed to be aware of their danger, and fled in all directions before they arrived, so the sea area they passed was quiet, and they had never encountered any creature.
But suddenly, Jiao Jiao who was swimming in front of them suddenly disappeared.
What appeared in front of Xiao Zhuo and Zheng Qing was a dilapidated Dragon Palace.Thousands of years ago, the Dragon Palace was majestic and majestic with carved railings and jade. Unexpectedly, thousands of years later, it became a dilapidated ruin with only a few palaces barely supporting it.
The two hall doors that entered the Dragon Palace were wide open, and the figures of Xiao Zhuo and Zheng Qing appeared in the hall door in an instant.
Inside the palace gate, they found no trace of Jiao Jiao, but smelled Hu Wanwan's breath, and found Hu Wanwan, Tao An and other crew members who were unconscious from the room next to them.
After discovering Hu Wanwan and the others, Xiao Zhuo felt that something was wrong: "Jiao Jiao lured us here on purpose."
When he spoke, Zheng Qing had already lifted the carpet under his feet: "It's a formation."
Under the carpet, there are complex and complete formations drawn on the floor of the entire room, written stroke by stroke in bright red blood.With the entry of Xiao Zhuo and Zheng Qing, the formation seemed to have reached a certain condition, and instantly lit up, making it even more scarlet and weird.
Xiao Zhuo carefully looked at the formation, his face remained unchanged, his eyes were murderous, and he said to Zheng Qing: "It's a sacrificial formation. There must be more than one formation. It is very likely that Chiyou ordered us to sacrifice us." Reach the goal of reaching the sky."
"He still lacks a medium." Without a ladder, how could it reach the sky.
"Indeed." Xiao Zhuo guessed, "But he probably has figured out a way." It's just that they don't know yet.
While talking, suddenly a figure of Jiao Jiao appeared outside the room.
Seeing that both Xiao Zhuo and Zheng Qing were successfully trapped as planned, he suddenly laughed wildly and wantonly: "Your Excellency is right, this trick really works. You just stay inside and wait for the sacrifice to start, to rule this place for the demon lord." Let the world do its part."
At this point, Jiao Jiao originally thought that Xiao Zhuo and Zheng Qing would be afraid to beg for mercy.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Zhuo sneered when he heard the words: "Tsk, Chi You also dare to be called the demon master? Is there a big demon who admits it? I'm afraid he directed and acted it himself. He is not ashamed to praise himself so much."
He didn't even claim to be a demon master, so what kind of onion would Chi You dare to speak so brazenly.
Maybe Xiao Zhuo didn't expect Xiao Zhuo to know the identity of the Demon Lord. His expression changed, and he snorted coldly in a blink of an eye, "How dare you slander the Demon Lord when you are about to die. When the Demon Lord rules the human world, he is a well-deserved Demon King." , and I am the hero who opened up the frontier and expanded the territory, and my credit is infinite."
Xiao Zhuo looked at Jiao Jiao with a half-smile, as if he was looking at two fools, and thought to himself that you must be ordered to be the hero.
A mere magic circle also wanted to trap them, was Jiao Jiao looking down on them, or looking up on herself?
Confidence is good, but blind confidence is not.
