Chapter 145: Return
“...... On the 23rd, we came to Dai Town, a beautiful rural town, but it was no longer as peaceful and beautiful as it used to be. It is now dressed as a flamboyant dancer, standing on the stage, waiting for one customer after another. ”
In the small hotel where she stayed, Ren Ziling stopped her fingers on the keyboard, looked at the folder on the screen called 'Ren Ziling's Strange Event Book', frowned, and quickly deleted these two lines of text.
She touched a cup of hot tea and went to the window, looking out of the town into the thick fog.
I heard that the fog is still spreading, and it is estimated that it will cover the town in a few days. At this time, some people in the town were worried, and many people had already dragged their families out to hide.
However, there are still some businessmen who are sticking to the town at this time - there is no other, because the business opportunities at this time are almost unlimited, the cost of travel is several times that of the past, and even a bottle of water can be sold as much as a large scenic spot - the object of service is naturally the media from all sides who have heard the news.
Of course, it is unknown if there are anyone other than the media – but the local town government has issued a notice that people must be evacuated after three days at the latest.
As a reporter who has a dream and doesn't want to be a salted fish, this time he was appointed as the deputy editor-in-chief after fighting for nothing from the boss of the newspaper, and resolutely used the paid annual leave he had accumulated, pulled in pears and Akiko, and copied the guy to come to this place. If you don't find anything, you may really lose all your money.
Ren Ziling rubbed her eyebrows, leaned against the window, and just looked at the thick fog like white clouds, pure white, pure white, pure white.
At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Pear pushed the door and walked in, still holding a pot of boiling hot water in her hand, and complained: "Sister Ren, the owner of this hotel is too dark, and the tap water has to be charged!"
"There's no way around it. Ren Ziling shook her head, "We're late, it's good to have a place to live...... What about Akiko?"
Riko sat on the edge of the old single bed," she said, walking around to see if she could get anything. ”
By this time the old bed had made a squeak of wood rubbing, and Pear's stomach was growling - her rations had been eaten on the way, and there was no time to replenish them along the way.
What's worse is that the unscrupulous deputy editor-in-chief Ren has been exploiting Pear's savings frantically and unjustly under the banner of reimbursement along the way.
Ren Ziling sat down again, just as if she hadn't heard this kind of cooing, and said casually: "It's really positive." ”
In fact, she didn't think about taking Akiko out at first, but Akiko overheard her and Riko discussing this matter, so she showed great interest and took the initiative to ask for her peers.
Although Ren is the deputy editor-in-chief, his life is very dangerous, but he is unexpectedly a guy who likes to bring newcomers, and after putting forward the condition of paying his own expenses, he happily brought the newcomer of the newspaper with him.
"Probably found the consciousness of being a reporter?" Riko lay on the bed, the large font spread, and stared blankly at the ceiling...... I'm so hungry......
Suddenly, the pears seemed to smell something, sat up all of a sudden, and said with bright eyes: "Sister Ren, what are you eating, it's so fragrant!"
I saw that Ren Ziling was pinching open a wax pill in her hand at this moment, and then swallowed the contents into her mouth, drank water, and swallowed it.
"Black chicken white phoenix pill. Ren Ziling casually threw the crushed wax pills into the trash, "The courier I received before, Luo Qiu's stinky boy sent it to me, what kind of New Year's gift, I won't come back in the New Year...... I'm the second time! I always feel like I'm 20 years old when I give this thing to me for the Chinese New Year! If I didn't feel a lot more comfortable after eating, I wouldn't have eaten it!"
"Speaking of which, Sister Ren, has your skin been much better recently?" Lizi looked Ren Ziling up and down at this time, "Feel younger?
"Go, go!" Ren Ziling flicked her palm towards the pear, "The last one is also finished, do you want wax pills?"
"Stingy......" Pear fell back to bed pitifully, like a caterpillar.
Ren Ziling, who always felt that pears didn't look like a human being, shook her head and began to put on her boots...... Even a newcomer is working hard outside to dig up news, and she can't be left behind!
"Pear, let's go out and inquire about the news...... What do you eat?"
"It's so fragrant, strawberry-flavored ......"
I saw that the pear was biting a pink rubber film loop in her mouth at this time, and chewed it.
Ren Ziling suddenly snorted, and suddenly pounced in front of Lizi, "Lizi, wake up! Isn't this thing eaten with its mouth above!!"
As she spoke, Ren Ziling tugged at the pink rubber tape film loop, trying to snatch it out of the pear's mouth - but the elasticity of this thing was too good, and the two of them pulled it, and they stretched it by more than ten centimeters.
"Pears are good, give it to me!!" Ren Ziling said loudly!
"I don't care...... Let me chew a few bites!"
"Give it to me!!"
The tugging continued.
At this moment, the door was pushed open excitedly, and at the same time, a voice sounded, and said in an island accent and not very skilled Chinese, "Sister Ren, I have found someone I can interview...... えっ?”
Akiko blinked, Ren Ziling watched Akiko blink her eyes and subconsciously blinked her eyes, her hand was released at once, and the pink rubber belt film circle contracted back violently at this time, and bounced directly onto the pear's nose.
She screamed in pain, "I don't have to eat with my nose......"
"Wait, Akiko......" Ren Ziling opened her mouth.
"I... I'll be waiting for you outside!"
Akiko quickly closed the door at this time, and then the sound of struggling downstairs came.
Ren Ziling froze for a moment, then sat down, she sadly took out a pack of women's cigarettes, lit it, took a puff, and spit out the smoke, followed by the glass window, the smoke seemed to merge with the thick fog outside the town.
So Ren Deputy Editor-in-Chief said softly: "......"
......
......
Stuck in a dense fog area, Yan Xiaoxi has almost lost communication with the outside world - although the support manpower can be reached on foot, this efficiency is too slow.
Because of the inability to use all electronic devices, even the research work of the Jade Dragon Pillar couldn't help but be temporarily stopped...... The fact that information can only be transmitted back and forth through manpower has greatly limited the actions of the Authority.
And in such a restriction, the Jade Dragon Pillar has quietly appeared the third, fourth, and fifth.
Fortunately, the appearance of the five jade dragon pillars has allowed Mr. Blind to successfully calculate the possible position of the sixth jade dragon pillar.
At this time, Wolong Villa has released thunder through Taoism, which has been temporarily converted into electricity to maintain the daily infrastructure.
Since the last battle on the hillside, the remaining Dao Demon and Demon Side's manpower has not been so enthusiastic in action - at this time, at this time, the people who came to the conference room were less than half of the manpower before.
Those questioning Dao Demon personnel on both sides did not leave Wolong Villa, but there was also a tendency to not work hard.
Su Mubai and Zixing will participate in every meeting.
"After our calculations, the places where the sixth jade dragon pillar may appear are these three. ”
Yan Xiaoxi marked the place on the map at this time to pass by Mr. Blind's calculations—looking at these three places, Zixing couldn't help frowning, "Section Chief Yan Xiaoxi, how did you calculate these locations?"
"The Authority also has people who are proficient in formations and calculations, and we have come up with these three locations after using a large number of computers to calculate outside the dense fog. Yan Xiaoxi said indifferently at this time.
"Section Chief Yan. Zixing was silent for a moment and then said, "Let's not care what the intentions of the Seventy-First Immortal of Tianxin are...... Shouldn't we be more honest?"
Yan Xiaoxi frowned, "What does Young Master Purple Star mean?"
Zixing said in a deep voice at this time: "I heard that some time ago, Wolong Villa was attacked by a sneak attack...... But is it true that the sneak attackers, dressed in black and wearing bronze masks, were three in all, and two of them were killed?"
"It's true. Yan Xiaoxi said expressionlessly.
Zixing said again at this time: "In fact, the two so-called sneak attackers who were killed actually committed suicide, is it true?"
"It's true. ”
Zixing's eyes froze at this time, "And these two dead soldiers who committed suicide are among the group of Dao demons who opposed you that day and left, is it true?"
"It's true. ”
"Why has Section Chief Yan been hiding this matter?" Zi Xing said in a slightly cold voice at this time: "If it weren't for the fact that my clan still has some resources, I'm afraid Section Chief Yan is planning to keep it hidden at this time, right?"
"In order not to panic unnecessarily, it was I who gave the order to keep the matter secret. Yan Xiaoxi looked directly at Zixing, and then at Daoist Su Mubai, "Two, the current situation is very unfavorable for us. I don't know what the consequences will be if this news gets out, so the best way to do it at the moment is to hide it. ”
"Yan Xiaoxi. Zixing said in a deep voice: "I stayed here completely for the sake of the 'agreement', but I am not the object of your rhetoric and coaxing...... Perhaps your Authority, after asking yourself about those advanced weapons, can settle all this without the support of all parties. ”
"The two of you, the top priority, is not to quarrel, but to stop this as soon as possible. Su Mubai hurriedly said at this time: "This dense fog has been extending, and no one knows how much it will cover. I believe that there is a mess outside now, and I am afraid that no matter how hard the country makes efforts, it will be difficult to cover up this matter, so I think, Section Chief Yan, I think the young master of Zixing is right...... It's not that we're not cooperative, we just want to be treated with the most basic respect. ”
Yan Xiaoxi took a deep breath and said after a while: "I suspect that among the Dao Demons, I am afraid that many of them have already followed the seventy-first generation of Tianxin. ”
Zixing and Su Mubai glanced at each other.
Zixing frowned and said, "But, when we were arrested in the Fake Cave Mansion?"
Yan Xiaoxi said: "I'm afraid, including the two of them, many of the Dao demons who were captured were 'voluntary' themselves, which can well explain why the seventy-first generation of Tianxin was able to capture so many Dao demons silently - indifferently, this is just based on the current intelligence, and the conclusion of speculation is not necessarily accurate." But if it's accurate......"
"But if it's accurate, we don't even know how many people are still in Wolong Villa now...... Own. Su Mubai took the words, and then smiled bitterly, "In this case, even the people around you may actually be ...... This is a very bad situation indeed. ”
Su Mubai's eyes looked at Zixing, and the meaning was very clear...... You, the young master of Purple Star, may also be a person from the seventy-first generation side of Tianxin.
In the conference room, there was a sudden silence.
After a long time, Zixing sighed and said in a low voice, "Can we win this battle?"
Yan Xiaoxi was about to speak, but at this time, a person from the Administration Bureau hurriedly walked in, only to see that this person's expression was full, but there was surprise in his eyes, "Section Chief, we have received a communication from Captain Ling Feng!"
Yan Xiaoxi, Su Mubai, and Zixing stood up in an instant at this time!
......
......
The place where it appears is near the town of Dai.
It was a group of agents from the Administration Bureau led by Captain Ling Feng who appeared, as well as Cang Jinshui and Qu Xinghe - because of the blocked communication, when the news reached Yan Xiaoxi's side, it was already half a day later.
Then, it took nearly half a day for Yan Xiaoxi and his entourage to set off from Wolong Villa and rushed to Daizhen, where they met Captain Ling Feng and others who came out of the Penglai Treasure House.
They have been missing for nearly half a month, and during this half month, there has been turmoil in the outside world. At this time, their return really made everyone excited-especially, this time, there are also the four spirits of the demon clan, the four spirits of the demon clan, the water and the Qu Xinghe.
"That's it. ”
That night, when everyone gathered, Captain Ling Feng pointed to a clearing behind the granary, "We came out of this place. But when we all left, the passage was gone. However, it seems that President Hundred Tribulation is still working hard, and it is very likely that there will be more of our people coming out of here in the future...... Of course, this is just my speculation. ”
Dr. Zhao, who came with the team, hurriedly asked people to place all kinds of instruments at this time, and circled around the place pointed by Captain Ling Feng.
And Captain Ling Feng and Cang Jinshui also wanted everyone to talk about what they had experienced in the Penglai Treasure House - those terrifying things about Gaia.
The narration of the Heavenly Desolation Night Tale made Yan Xiaoxi and the others who rushed over feel cold in their backs when they heard it - when there is such a place in this world, it has the powerlessness to be able to destroy almost the elites of the Dao and Demon Associations in an instant...... Its level of despair seemed to be much more terrifying than its current opponent, the Seventy-First Generation.
"What is this?"
Yan Xiaoxi and the others couldn't digest this shocking news, but Dr. Zhao looked curiously at what an agent was holding at this time.
"This is taken out of the inside, and there are a few other things over there. ”
As he spoke, the agent waved a short metal stick in his hand.
I saw that the metal rod shot out a beam of light in an instant—the team member used the beam to casually slash at the big rock next to him, and the big stone was instantly cut in half.
Dr. Zhao pushed his glasses at this time, "This thing... Lend me a look. ”
