Jiang Qian put down the stack of hand-drawn geological maps and fell into deep thought.
This set of maps draws and marks the same geological landform from different geographical dimensions, but there is no text information showing the origin of these drawings.
Jiang Qian's father, Jiang Xuesong, was a geologist during his lifetime. He had seen similar drawings in his father's study more than once. Assuming that this set of geological maps was made by his father, what was his father trying to convey to him?
?
At this moment, a moving shadow looming on the west side of the old house aroused Jiang Qian's alert through the Beidou button camera.
…
Beijing, Biting Winery, a subsidiary of Vanzhong Group.
Ji Ming, who was accompanying Elder Helian to the VIP banquet hall through a special passage, connected his cell phone on the way.
Afterwards, he put down his cell phone, and within a minute he explained the reason to the elder Helian beside him, turned around, and left the winery in front of everyone.
The dignitaries of the Dark Night clan who were in charge of reception in front of the banquet hall were stunned:
"No way? Jin Ping's colleagues are very courageous. It doesn't matter if the upstart Qianlong Wu doesn't use it. Even his superiors left the meeting midway? This really doesn't give face to the bloody elder..."
"If anything, if you want to say that you don't give face, it should be because Elder Xue didn't give face to us, the invited dignitaries. He didn't even show up at the opening ceremony."
"Hey, you are really good at absolving others! It's a pity that the bloody elder doesn't think so."
…
The alley on the west side of the Jiang family's old house.
A short and fat figure was walking quietly against the shadow formed by the wall of the house.
His movements were very cautious, even if it would sacrifice his forward speed, he did not dare to reveal the slightest trace of his whereabouts. However, he still could not escape the capture of the Beidou button camera that covered the area like stars.
When he was only a hundred meters away from Jiang's house, he suddenly stopped.
He took out a bluebell from his chest and said to it: "Master Protector, I have been exposed..."
When he said this, there was a hint of trembling in his voice, as if he was trembling slightly due to some kind of nervousness. At the same time, he subconsciously held the bluebell tightly, almost breaking the slender stem!
There was no other reason. In the middle of the bumpy dirt road ahead, a person was walking slowly.
Under the moonlight.
This man was tall and tall, with handsome appearance, and his face was cold and pale. His eyes were staring blankly ahead, with a gloomy and indifferent expression.
"He is coming towards me... The distance is less than 100 meters. Please give me your instructions, Lord Protector."
The short and fat man spoke quickly, swallowing his saliva unconsciously, and cold sweat fell from his forehead.
Such a person suddenly appears on the road at night. Even if he is not wearing white clothes and has long hair, it is enough to make people's legs weak. What's more, this place belongs to a sparsely populated old city.
But the man still inevitably felt a little strange.
"Are you sure it's the target? Night Holy Envoy."
"Confirm, it is consistent with the Qianlong Do Not Use characteristics in the photo."
The bluebells were swaying in the wind, and a reply came, causing the four-state and perfect Night Walker to refocus on the order of the protector.
"Take it away, by the order of the Holy Mother."
"……yes."
After the brief communication ended, the night wanderer put away the bellflowers and stared alertly at the target approaching actively - do not use the hidden dragon.
Because he was exposed prematurely, he was unable to use more covert means such as sneak attacks and plots to control the target. Now, a duel was inevitable.
Although according to the structural rules of the Holy Mountain, no one except the Holy Mother and the Protector is allowed to take the initiative to take action against the "Crown Prince". That would be an act beyond his authority and would carry heavy culpability.
But the Holy Mother's decree is another matter.
Qianlong Wuyong's figure is getting closer and closer.
The inexplicable tension also made Ye Xinglangjun more and more uneasy.
He aimed at the opportunity, and when Qianlong Wuyong was only ten steps away from him, he bowed and knelt down on one knee!
"I have met His Highness the Crown Prince, the Night Traveler of the Holy Mountain Believers. I respectfully invite His Highness the Crown Prince to return..."
He originally planned to use this humble and respectful etiquette to prevent the target Qianlong from letting down his guard, so that he could suddenly launch a surprise attack and win with one blow.
Of course, it would be easier if the other party readily agrees.
However, unexpectedly, his cramped tone and uncontrolled speaking speed completely revealed his panic at the moment.
No, strictly speaking, when Qianlong Wu gradually approached, fear and uneasiness surrounded him like a shadow, making him feel invisible pressure pouring from the top of his head, and a dark shadow enveloped him deeply.
"Oh, your name is Mr. Night Walker."
I saw Qianlong Wuyong raising his almost pale face and sneering. Those empty and terrifying eyes seemed to suck him in like a bottomless pit: "Please let me return, where can I go?"
The Night Walker endured the physical discomfort and replied: "Of course it is... the sacred mountain!"
"oh."
Qianlong Bu raised his eyelids slightly, his pale face even more frightening: "What if I don't agree?"
…
Written by: Night Walker.
Note output: "A loyal dung beetle."
…
"disagree?"
The Night Walker suppressed his emotions and said harshly: "Then don't blame me for taking you away by force."
But don’t smile deeper when you see a hidden dragon.
This kind of smile appeared on his pale and cold face, and it was really hard not to send chills down the spine.
He didn't reply, the pen shook out from his sleeve, and with the accelerated pace, people and weapons rushed towards Ye Xinglang at the same time!
He was just a powerful newcomer who had just been promoted to the Four Forms and Complete Body... The Night Walker was confident, so he simply let go of his hands and feet, and the armor quickly covered his whole body from behind. He waved out his strong and agile arms and grabbed Jiang.
Qian swung the pen! His other hand flew towards Jiang Qian's face.
His movements were extremely precise and solid, but he wavered strongly at the critical moment of victory, and the speed and power of his shots were attenuated.
This flaw was completely seen through by Qianlong Wuyong. He avoided the swings as lightly as a swallow, and his body was as free as a master who had practiced martial arts for many years. His dodges and attacks were as easy and freehand as if they were integrated into muscle memory, and he didn't bother to think at all.
Look.
He also took advantage of the opponent's surprise and wiped the opponent's neck with his alien fangs...
I planted it carelessly, just picked it up at my fingertips.
However, Ye Xinglangjun has the strength of the four states and the complete body.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! This "unexpected" move was restrained by the strong body surface of the dung beetle, and it failed to kill with one blow, but it also caused the opponent to loosen its grip on the pen.
As they went back and forth, although neither of them took advantage of each other, compared to the calm and leisurely Qianlong Wuyong, Ye Xinglangjun's mentality was obviously unbalanced: nervous, cramped, and fearful.
His will to fight, which had never wavered, began to sink like drowning at some point.
What a danger! What's going on? Isn't this guy a newbie to the powerful? How could he bring me such an inexplicable sense of oppression... The Night Walker noticed that something was wrong, but he couldn't think of a way to solve it for the moment, so he had to bite the bullet
Keep fighting.
But even if his mentality was unbalanced, he never thought about losing.
Because he is not the only one who came to "respectfully invite" the crown prince to return today.
However, just as he was thinking this, the attacks from Qianlong Wuyong came one after another like a raging bamboo. The agile hands were unpredictable, and the bite force from the fangs was strange and shocking. His alien armor could not withstand the second "bite".
"Hit", cracks appeared under the perfect bite of the fangs!
Qianlong Wu's attacks are not showy or flashy, but they are deadly and ruthless.
The Night Walker was so forced that he couldn't help but release the Beast King!
But he still retains a trace of reason: if he really releases the Beast King, he will lose all the tasks of respectfully requesting the crown prince, and even he and his colleagues will not be able to escape the pursuit of the Jinping branch...
"Your Highness, the one who conquers the sacred mountain is not afraid of heaven and earth! Are you really not curious and eager... about the benefits of becoming the master of the sacred mountain?"
Qianlong Wuyong on the other side stopped walking, and revealed a sinister smile on his pale expression, which made the Holy Mountain Envoy somewhat confused.
Then, a young voice came from behind him, almost close to his eardrum:
"Of course I'm curious, but I'm still more concerned about the 'risk'."
The Night Walker suddenly turned around and saw his alien limbs carrying sharp thorns moving from his arms...
"Well!"
The blood stains from the broken opening of the alien limb stretched for several meters, but there was not a drop of blood on the body of the instigator.
