Chapter 65: How Can There Be a Way to Become an Immortal in the World (27)
It's all metal in the room, and everything looks cold.
Floor, air, body.
How many are there, thirty, forty, or more...... The room was full of corpses.
They are not very old, probably between seven and eleven years old?
There's only one left.
A ...... who was able to stand up In his hand was a silver fork for eating, and blood was dripping from the fork...... The feeling of suffocation.
Suddenly, an unopening metal door in the room suddenly opened, and a glare was shining.
Before the bright light, there were several tall figures, and the light elongated the shadows, like demonic tentacles, and suddenly reached into the room.
"Is that the ghost who survived this room...... One hour and seven minutes, before the oxygen ran out, it was not bad. You can move on to the next round of rooms. The next round will be shorter, try your best to recover your strength, or you may fall into failure...... Like these losers who fall at your feet. β
Bang Dangββ!
It was the sound of a silver fork falling to the ground.
......
......
The eyes suddenly opened, and there was a moment of deep breathing, as if he wanted to inhale all the oxygen in the world directly into his body.
Alive.
......
When Nero woke up, the club's lobby was still quiet.
She sat cross-legged at once, then looked around.
"Yo, beautiful young lady. And also...... Righteous little brother. β
I kind of said hello to the maid who was reading a book not far away - of course, Yuya nodded politely in response.
"Congratulations on waking up, Miss Nero. Yuya smiled slightly, got up and walked in front of Nero, "I have already connected the arm for you, and the nerves have also returned to their original state, so there should be no missing." Of course, if Miss Nero still feels uncomfortable, I can continue to adjust it. β
The palm of his hand pressed on the position of the originally broken shoulder, and then the arm was slightly swung twice, Nero looked quite happy and said: "This technique is much better than the clubhouse, and it doesn't feel awkward at all." It's really a big help, I originally thought I would use one hand to eat in the future. β
The maid smiled slightly, and then handed the box containing the soul back to Nero's hand.
"The cost of the evacuation and the cost of the treatment have been deducted. The maid said softly at this time, "Of course, there are still the remainder...... Need I recommend something of equivalent value?"
Nero shook the box, "It's expensive...... There is only one left. But forget it, there seem to be a lot of places around here where you can make 'money'. β
"Well, I wish you a little more. The maid smiled slightly.
"Of course. Nero smiled, and then stood up, moving his neck and limbs, "Ah, I'm a little hungry, can I have a meal here?" β
"If you don't dislike it, please wait a moment. The maid nodded.
Entertaining guests was originally one of the duties of a maid.
"It's okay, there's nowhere to go anyway, I've always been patient. Nero sat down at once, stretched his waist and said, "Speaking of which, can you take a bath by the way?"
"What a generous guest. Yuye said indifferently: "But if it's just a bath, it's a bit much...... Okay, let's take it as a giveaway for this sale, right?"
"All right!" Nero stood up.
But at this time.
"Why ......"
Momo's voice.
The voice made Nero and Yuya look at Momo at the same timeβhe hadn't left for a short time. Why he didn't leave, whether he was waiting for Nero to wake up, or waiting for something, even he couldn't tell.
He couldn't think of a reason to stay...... It's just that he wasn't expelled by the maid lady. It's just that...... Why?
"Mr. Momo, is there anything wrong?" Yuya asked softly, "Oh, the tea is cold, I'm sorry, I'll get you a new one right away." β
"No!!"
Momo looked away a little, and his palms clenched hard...... Even though he had already seen the terrifying power of this beautiful maid lady, even if he was more frightened at this time, "Why can you discuss these things so easily......?" Is it really just... Is it just 'currency'?"
Youye stroked his cheek with his palm, tilted his head, and followed Momo's gaze to look at the box placed on the table, "Mr. Momo is talking about souls,"
Momo nodded silently.
Youye said: "But last time, didn't I already tell Mr. Momo about some of the trading rules here?"
"I know!"
Momo became a little excited, "But I still can't believe it! Even if I saw it with my own eyes, I still can't believe it! Why...... Why did the predecessor's store make such a thing......? Seniors he ...... He's obviously so kind-hearted, and Miss Yuya is so noble! Why do such cruel things?!"
"Thank you so much, Mr. Mommer. The maid whispered at this time, "I am glad that you have complimented my master." But...... What you see is what the store really is, and there is no falsehood. Anyone who comes here and gives what they want can get what they want. We trade everything that is valuable, and the one that has always been used the most is ...... Soul. β
"You ...... Senior, what is he collecting souls for......" Mo Mo suddenly felt a little cold.
Even though the inside of the store is still different from the cold weather outside, the chill is blowing from the bottom of my heart.
"It's a matter of keeping our store secret, so I can't answer your question. The maid lady said indifferently: "Of course, if Mr. Momo really wants to know, he can also pay the corresponding things." β
"Oh, I want to know, I want to know, give!" Nero, who was on the side, opened the box containing the soul very neatly.
"Miss Nero, you're naughty. The maid smiled at this point.
"What a horrible look. Nero shrunk his neck and obediently closed the box back.
But at this time, he suddenly remembered the sound of the bell at the entrance of the lobby - it was not that a guest came in, but that Mo Mo rushed out directly from here with his head bowed at this time.
Yuya looked at it indifferently.
"Righteous little brother, don't you stay and have a meal together to celebrate my escape?" Hey~~~~"
Nero shouted twice, then looked at Yuya and shrugged, "It looks like it's really gone...... But then again, beautiful young lady, isn't it a bit harsh?"
"Because there is no need or intention to deceive in the first place. Yuye said softly: "This gentleman seems to have had some misunderstandings before, so it's better to correct it as soon as possible." β
"I went to take a shower. Nero yawned and stood up.
"You walk slowly. Yuya bowed gracefully towards Nero.
......
......
He didn't know why he had rushed out like this...... Momo lowered his head and rushed forward, feeling like a deserter.
He ran through several streets in one go, and with the special characteristics of a monk, this amount of exercise only made his body heat up slightly, and the wind that blew on the cold day turned into a cool breeze because of it.
Momo exhaled, white mist exhaling from his lips and nose, the street was not deserted at this time.
Here it seems to be...... Where Nero fought those two mighty warriors.
Now that the fog has cleared, the streets are also blocked, and there seems to be a cordon in front and behind, while there are traffic police on duty on Chinese New Year's Eve to watch over them.
There were reporters who interviewed here, but they were blocked out of the street by the traffic police...... At the same time, some residents of the neighborhood have also come out of their homes.
Mommer overheard some conversation in the crowd.
The public doesn't know much, it seems that a family of three had a car accident, and none of them were spared...... But from a distance, the car that had the accident, that is, the car that had the accident, had been covered by the traffic police with a huge black tent, and it was impossible to see its damage.
At the same time, Momo also saw two men who felt different from ordinary police and traffic police...... From the two men's bodies, Mo Mo sensed some familiar smells.
They also wore a small badge...... I remember that the Authority's Captain Lingfeng seemed to have a similar ornament on his body.
"It's someone from the Authority...... Are they involved in this? β
Momo glanced at the crowd a few times, then quickly left the crowd again.
He had heard the master Changhe Daoren say that in addition to dealing with the management of the Dao and Demon Realms, the existence of the Authority also played the role of the aftermath department in many cases, such as dealing with some crazy demon clans destroying society, or arresting some Daoists who had fallen into the Demon Dao indiscriminately.
I don't know if this matter will be traced back to the predecessor in the end...... Momo thought subconsciously.
It's just that he quickly slapped his cheeks with both hands and laughed at himself: "Until now, I still think about what he is doing......
......
Those who passed out in the dense fog at the beginning have already woken up one after another, and what will happen to them afterwards is no longer something that Mo Mo plans to care about.
Anyway, with the state behind the Authority, there is always a way to deal with such a thing, right?
Tsingtao beer.
This was bought on the way back...... Momo actually rarely drinks alcohol.
By this time, he had returned to the empty room of another guesthouse where Zhan'er had been housed, and sat in the corner of the room, where there were already several empty cans next to him.
"Let's go tomorrow...... I don't know when you'll wake up. Mo Mo's eyelids were a little heavy and he looked at Zhan'er on the bed, "Sometimes I really envy you, so I don't have to worry about anything." β
Tiredness grows.
Suddenly, a noise shook Momo from his imminent sleep...... It was the sound of the wind outside blowing the can against the foot of the bed.
Momo's eyes opened, a little dazedβbut he quickly came to his senses completely.
For he saw an elongated figure in the moonlight, which was now reflected on the floor of the room...... Momo jerked towards the terrace outside the sliding glass door.
In the faint light of the night, a figure was standing here at this moment.
"It's you!" Momo was drunk in an instant.
The person who suddenly appeared here was the mysterious man with a bronze mask that he had met under the ancient well of the Song family's ancestral house not long ago!
As on that day, the other party was still wearing a simple bronze mask and standing with his hands in his hands.
Mo Mo suddenly grabbed at the black wooden sword placed next to him, and while secretly ashamed of his alertness, he also became nervous...... How the hell did this mysterious man find himself twice?
However, when Momo's palm was about to reach in front of the wooden sword, the mysterious man raised his hand and flicked his fingers, and the wooden sword placed on the wall was instantly bounced away by a finger wind.
Mo Mo was shocked and angry, but the mysterious man in the bronze mask had already struck again at this time, holding a yellow talisman between his fingers very quickly, and raised his hand to shoot out.
The yellow talisman suddenly turned into a beam of golden light, like a rope, and instantly tied Mo Mo's whole person tightly - Mo Mo fell directly to the ground at this time.
"I don't know what happened to you, but now you are like a lost dog. β
The Bronze Masked Man walked slowly into the room and walked to Zhan'er beside the bed.
"Stop! What do you want to do?"
"I just got some of the necessary stuff back. The bronze masked man said indifferently at this time: "You think that getting the edict is his luck. But for me, it doesn't matter who gets it...... Just bring it out smoothly and you're good to go. β
"Who the hell are you, and for what purpose?"
Mo Mo, who fell to the ground, appeared to kneel at this time, and then stood up, agitating the mana of his whole body, wanting to open the bindings on his body - however, with his mana, he couldn't break free of this golden light!
The mysterious man looked at Mo Mo at this time, "You are very good, there should be more room for development." It's just that the world has you in a bind position. Soon...... Soon you will see an era that suits you. β
"What?" Momo was stunned.
In fact, whether it was under the ancient well or this time, Mo Mo had never felt the slightest killing intent in this mysterious person's body.
Otherwise, he could have killed himself directly without waiting for himself to notice it at the beginning, instead of just tying himself up like now.
"That person doesn't seem to be here. The mysterious man whispered at this time: "Then this time, no one will stop me...... Is it considered to have escaped a catastrophe? β
But although Mo Mo couldn't break free at this time, he suddenly rushed towards this mysterious man, in the simplest and most brutal way.
"What do you seem to have been stimulated by today?" the mysterious man said indifferently at this time, "but it's better not to take your anger out on others." β
The bronze masked man slammed his palm into Momo's chest, sending him flying and slamming into the wall.
Mo Mo spat out a mouthful of blood, and after landing on the ground, he fell directly unconscious.
"The things that have been prepared are almost ready, but they are still ...... away"
The mysterious man groaned for a moment at this time, and then one in each hand, directly lifted Mo Mo and Zhan'er up, jumped away from the windowsill, and soon disappeared into the night.
