In city No. 18, there were only three people in a quiet bar.
Bartender, Li Dongze, March...
"Is this real wine or fake wine?" March looked at the amber whiskey in the cup and asked Li Dongze beside him.
Li Dongze was still wearing his elegant suit and vest. The pocket watch chain hanging on his chest was polished and his leather shoes had just been polished.
No matter when and where, this godfather of Hengshe lives a meticulous life.
He looked at the cup and said: "...fake wine."
March looked at Li Dongze unhappily: "You serve me with fake wine?"
Li Dongze explained patiently: "The tobacco and alcohol business in the Federation is monopolized, and no one makes good wine. Unless it is specially supplied to the houses of various consortiums, the quality of other wines is not as good as my fake wine. Don't worry, Hengshe's industries
They are all regular breweries, we just can’t get a brewing license.”
Sanyue chuckled lightly. Li Dongze rarely spoke so much. Usually when he spoke a lot, he would be a little nervous.
She took a sip and said calmly: "It's really good, better than the one in City 19."
Li Dongze's expression became more natural.
March said: "I'm leaving again."
Li Dongze frowned slightly: "I just came back, why are you leaving again?"
"This time it happened in the south. The six-eyed crow in the tribunal screamed day and night. Something big is going to happen," said March, "I have a very strange thing to tell you. Kamishiro Chichi died, but the crow did not guide us.
In the past, this showed that there was something wrong. Of course, I can only tell you about this matter, and you have to keep it confidential."
Li Dongze said frankly: "According to what you said, he may still be alive. My boss has wanted to kill him for many years. If he faked his death, then I must tell the boss the news."
March sat at the bar and shrugged: "I didn't say he was still alive."
Li Dongze was stunned for a moment: "Huh? What do you mean?"
Could it be that the body of Kamishiro Chiaki was sacrificed with some forbidden object?
March seemed to guess what Li Dongze was thinking, and said: "Even if he will be sacrificed by a forbidden object, the six-eyed crow will crow before his death, just like Qingchen made us run in vain before.
The same thing. Moreover, in the entire federation, there are only a few taboo objects that can be sacrificed to extraordinary people. Except for the puppets, the rest are in our hands. The body of Kamishiro Chiaki was not sacrificed, but covered
Without the information, even taboo objects like the Six-Eyed Crow can't find him."
In fact, the forbidden objects controlled by the Taboo Tribunal are like playing a game and turning on clairvoyance.
As long as the quantity is large enough, some information can be inferred.
For example, there are a total of four taboo objects that can be sacrificed to extraordinary beings:
Taboo ace-103, scarlet pen.
This forbidden object is used to sacrifice corpses for fun, but what is strange is that such a cruel forbidden object can actually write blessings...
If you sacrifice one corpse, you can write down a wish. If you sacrifice ten corpses, you can write down ten wishes, and the wishes can be stored.
The things that the scarlet pen can wish for are very small, such as hoping that someone will give you a gift, hoping that someone will help you wash the dishes, hoping that you won’t have to work overtime tomorrow...
But such a small thing will definitely be achieved.
For example, if you live in an uninhabited land, even if there is no one around you for 1,000 kilometers, as long as you make a wish, an unlucky person will suddenly come to this desert for some reason tomorrow and help you wash the dishes...
For example, you can make a wish that someone will treat you to a hot pot meal tomorrow, then even if the flood comes tomorrow, someone will treat you to a hot pot meal.
In the early years, the owner of the scarlet pen was a wilderness hunter.
One time he fought with a wilderness man and killed him.
The hunter sacrificed the body of the wild man and made a wish that he would have a warm meal tomorrow.
It's not that his requirements are low, it's that he knows that this thing is only capable.
As a result, an accident happened. It rained suddenly that night, and the river burst its banks and rushed him downstream.
The wilderness hunter thought to himself that he would definitely not be able to eat hot meals now, and whether he could survive was in doubt.
But before he could think too much, he saw an assault boat rushing upstream and fished him out.
The next morning, the captain cooked him a bowl of hot porridge...
At that time, the wilderness hunter suddenly realized that this was the good luck brought by the scarlet pen's wish!
The power of rules!
Among the many taboo items nowadays, the scarlet pen can be said to be a very useless one. The month of April is usually used to make wishes for hot pot and nothing else.
Let’s look at other taboo items, such as the taboo item ace-089, which hunts and kills singers. As long as you let it hear you singing, you are a B-level person. Even if you are in the end of the world, you will be killed.
Or maybe it's Chen Yu's pair of stone lions. The two of them together can kill an A-level lion!
Or you may be thankful that the mysterious forbidden object in your hand can arrange bad luck.
No matter how you look at it, it works better than the scarlet pen.
The second taboo item that can be used to sacrifice the corpse of an extraordinary person is ace-107, the best lighter in the village.
When you sacrifice a corpse once, you can use fire once.
This thing is more useful. Everything it ignites will be reduced to ashes, and no residue will be left after burning the corpse.
Use it to burn steel, and the molten iron will evaporate.
The flame of this lighter will not spread. Even if the body is burned, it will only burn the body and not the clothes.
Someone once wanted to use it to destroy the earth, but he stopped just after burning a stone...
Later, someone used it to fight an A-level enemy. After the two sides forced melee combat, the owner suddenly used a lighter to light one of the opponent's hairs.
In just 2 seconds, the A-level extraordinary person turned into ashes.
Of course, the conditions for using this forbidden object are a bit harsh. The battles between A-level masters are constantly changing. For example, if a master like Jindai Yunhe sees you suddenly taking out a lighter, he will definitely not approach you again.
The third taboo object that can be sacrificed to extraordinary people is ace-015, the wooden fish of Jiyun Temple.
This thing is a bit evil. It sacrifices corpses in a way of salvation, and the souls of the sacrificed corpses will even float out.
The soul looked painful but its eyes were dull, asking questions and answering questions.
It only lasts five minutes.
The person who discovered this forbidden object was an eminent monk from Jiyun Temple in the former Federation. Jiyun Temple was also the most popular temple in the past.
Later, after the eminent monk died and left behind this forbidden object, everyone always felt that this thing had no Buddhist nature at all, and was instead very cruel.
Later, someone discovered hundreds of human skeletons in the caves under Jiyun Temple, and there were knife and ax marks on the skeletons...
It was also this incident that led to an anti-monk upsurge within the Federation, and the Mechanicum was also born at that time.
At first, the people simply no longer trusted the monks. Later, some people added fuel to the fire and wanted to use the Mechanicum to replace the new faith to control the people. In the end, it was still the consortium that benefited.
The last item, the forbidden object ace-019, a puppet.
These four taboo objects can be used to sacrifice the corpses of extraordinary beings.
Three of them were in the hands of the Forbidden Inquisition. At this time, they met another person who could sacrifice the corpse of an extraordinary person. This meant that the other party held the only "string" that was living outside and could be used to sacrifice the extraordinary person's body.
puppet".
This elimination method is very simple...
Li Dongze pondered and asked: "Then what do you think is going on with Kamishiro Qianchi?"
Mitsuki said calmly: "I suspect Kamishiro Chichi has been carrying the taboo item ACE-039, 'Outside the Three Realms'."
This forbidden object is more interesting. It is a string of Buddhist beads. It was a forbidden object separated by the first abbot of Jiyun Temple. It has no active ability, but it can be exempted from the judgment of all forbidden objects.
For example, if you carry this string of Buddhist beads called "Three Realms Outside", even if you sing to a hunter every day, they will not pay attention to you.
If someone uses the best lighter in the village to burn you, nothing will happen to you.
Fortunately, he arranged your destiny on the spot, and your destiny will not change because of him.
The magical thing about this thing is that if Kamishiro Chiaki carries this before she dies, she can avoid the judgment of the six-eyed crow.
Li Dongze said: "Three Realms has disappeared for more than a hundred years, how could it end up in the hands of the God Generation Consortium?"
"Then I don't know," Sanyue shook her head: "I also tried to use forbidden objects to find it, but unfortunately it is exempt from all forbidden objects, so I couldn't find it at all."
This taboo object outside the Three Realms is the most suitable for the Taboo Tribunal. After all, they have to face all kinds of strange taboo objects.
Pity.
"Strange, could someone deliberately hide the body of Kamishiro Qianchi? Why?" Li Dongze frowned: "Could it be that the Kamishiro Consortium has mastered something evil?"
"It's impossible to judge," March shook his head: "I will take April and the others to the south tomorrow. This time the six-eyed crow crows for an extra long time, its five eyes are weeping blood, and it doesn't even eat hawthorn...
…Another demigod is about to die.”
Li Dongze said: "I'll go with you."
"Why?" March asked.
"The Forbidden Tribunal has not been so stable in recent years," Li Dongze said: "You have too many forbidden items in your hands, and they will always be coveted. Although you are doing things that are beneficial to the world, the consortium will think that as long as you get them
They can also do your taboos and things that you can do. So, from now on, you have to be careful, and I will accompany you this time."
"Can you leave?" Yue Yue looked at him sideways: "If you could leave, you would have left long ago."
"It's different," Li Dongze shook his head: "Now the two people assigned by my little boss are qualified for the daily management of Hengshe. Especially Zhang Tianzhen, who seems harmless to humans and animals, but is actually full of bad ideas. Between him and
Hu Xiaoniu is doing his best here, I can go now."
"Hey," March was stunned for a moment: "Then you pack your things and set off early tomorrow morning. Also, don't wear what you are wearing when going to the wilderness. It feels very inconsistent."
Li Dongze raised his eyebrows: "Didn't you say I look good in this outfit?"
March rolled her eyes: "We should also consider the occasion."
…
…
In the wilderness, a group of trucks transporting frozen meat, 11 in total, drove slowly from the north to City No. 10.
The words "Northern Shenque Meat Food Supply Group" are painted on the body.
This company that provides meat is a monopoly and is owned by the Shindai Foundation.
Because of the natural environment, they vigorously develop cattle and sheep and other livestock breeding industries in the north, and then transport the beef and mutton to various cities in the south.
When the convoy arrived at the 10th city, it gradually slowed down.
There was nothing unusual. The driver of the car was waiting for border quarantine at the Entry-Exit Administration Bureau, and the transportation approval documents were all in order.
The officials from the Exit-Entry Administration took a look at the documents, which showed that all the goods had been quarantined by City No. 20, that no sheep had died of illness, and that each sheep was embedded with an electronic beacon that could trace its origin.
The number of bacteria and various indicators also meet the requirements.
The official looked at the captain of the convoy and said casually: "There is nothing in the car. If there is, I suggest you explain it yourself."
As soon as the team captain heard what he said, he immediately pulled the official with a playful smile to a place where there was no surveillance, and then stuffed a roll of banknotes over him: "You are really sharp-eyed, and I can't hide anything from you. I am entrusted by others.
I brought some holly falcons from the wilderness to the big bosses."
The official did not take the note, but said in a calm tone: "The holly falcon is a forbidden bird of prey in the city. I can't let you pass."
The team captain quickly took off his watch again. It was the famous 'Dragon Weave' brand watch in the federation, and one piece cost more than 300,000 yuan.
The official was stunned for a moment and then put the watch into his pocket.
He stood in the blind spot of the surveillance, waved to his subordinates from a distance, and passed.
The entry-exit quarantine gate was slowly raised, and the metal storm on the dome was also unlocked.
The convoy continued to drive into the city. The captain, who had been smiling playfully just now, slowly darkened, and even became a little gloomy.
His gaze was like a hunting falcon, patrolling the front of the vehicle.
The captain said in the vehicle communication channel: "On top of the vehicle behind, all goods are sent everywhere according to orders."
As he said that, the vehicle he was in actually turned around and did not go to the third district, but to the fifth district.
The truck drove into an underground parking garage in District 5.
When no one was paying attention, the truck stopped at a sewer system inspection port.
The vehicle stopped and the door at the back of the truck opened silently.
The inner wall of the vehicle was covered with a barrier film to prevent radiation scanning, and two men with serious expressions jumped out. They methodically opened the sewer system access port. As soon as they opened it, they could hear the sound of the city's huge and complex sewer water.
The two of them looked at each other, lifted a long black wooden box out of the truck, and walked down the stairs of the inspection entrance into the sewer.
The box was as long as a person, extremely quiet, and the thing inside didn't seem to be a Holly Falcon at all.
This... is more like a coffin.
At the entrance to the sewer inspection door, the captain whispered: "There are still 1 minute and 23 seconds left. Remember, don't raise your head. Repeat, don't raise your head."
The two people in the sewer whispered: "Copy that."
They placed the black box in the sewer, and one of them took out an injection from his pocket, dripped the unknown liquid on the black box, then turned back to the ground and got back into the back of the truck.
Close the door and drive away quickly.
The two people in the cab and the two people in the cargo box were calm as if nothing had happened.
However, in the sewer, dozens of gray rats were attracted by the unknown smell and began to eat the black wooden box crazily.
The rats dug with their claws and bit with their teeth, going so crazy that they even broke their own teeth.
After dozens of minutes, the wooden box was finally gnawed through by mice.
An old and pale palm was revealed in the box.
The palm is only a small part that can be seen in the hole. This black wooden box is like a coffin abandoned in a mass grave, lying in this dark world that no one knows.
rot, fermentation.
…
…
"Let's camp here," Qingchen said suddenly when he saw a forest.
This was his first camping spot when his master brought him to the wilderness.
Qingchen looked at Zhang Mengqian. After the pickup truck stopped, the little boy ignored his fatigue and got out of the car to set up a temporary tent for Qingchen, Shadow and Yangyang.
Qingchen felt in a daze, as if this scene happened yesterday, and he was still Zhang Mengqian's character.
Shadow looked at Qingchen: "He was born with a sixth sense. Why don't you let him practice it quickly? There are very few such talents in the Federation. The two people who have been recorded have both achieved the status of demigod. Don't waste it.
If you can't teach me a piece of good material, I'll find someone to teach it."
Simply because practice itself is the process of gradual integration of individual spiritual will with the world.
And those who have had the sixth sense before practicing this kind of practice have already completed the integration in advance, and have huge potential in their bodies waiting to be developed.
Cultivation is a smooth path for such people.
Therefore, Shadow now feels pity when he sees Qingchen doing Zhang Mengqian's job.
However, Qingchen looked at Zhang Mengqian and shook his head, and whispered to the shadow: "I want him to take another path of cultivation, but he is so stubborn that he insists on taking my path. This kid is good at everything, but he is extremely stubborn.
"
Shadow nodded: "More stubborn than you. The more talented a person is, the more pure he is. It's a pity that if he doesn't change his mind, no one can help him, and the last possibility is to waste his life."
However, at this moment, the shadow suddenly leaned back without warning.
Qingchen quickly held his back and laid him flat on the ground beside the campfire.
There was no heartbeat, no breathing.
This symptom came so suddenly that even Shadow couldn't prepare for it in advance.
A shadow fell over Qingchen's heart.
The shadow's backlash is becoming more and more fierce, the frequency is getting higher and longer, and the time is getting longer and longer. In the past, the shadow had the opportunity to detect it in advance and find a place to lie down in advance.
Now, even Shadow himself doesn't know when the next backlash will come.
Qingchen sat next to the bonfire, waiting silently, unconsciously stirring the firewood in the bonfire with branches.
Yangyang said: "Brother Shadow's force field is already very weak at this time. In fact... he wanted to be with you in the last period of time because the only person he can trust unconditionally is you."
The time waiting for the shadow to wake up was extremely long, and every minute that passed made Qingchen feel as if he had spent a whole day.
It wasn't until half an hour later that there was a thud and the heartbeat resumed.
Shadow slowly sat up and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm fine."
But Qingchen couldn't laugh.
