In his field of vision, the driver's seat and steering wheel were moving backwards, and Zhou Bashu felt as if he had been thrown out of the car.
He was thrown into the ruins of an abandoned gas chamber, surrounded by rusty pipes and large glass jars, scrapped equipment and facilities, absurd folk construction techniques, and a man sitting on an iron bed in the middle of the gas chamber...
…
If, then it can be called a ‘person’.
The skinny bare legs and the uncomfortable lower body of the skin and bones, although morbid, can at least be regarded as humanoid. But looking further up, it is no longer human or the structure of carbon-based life, which can be explained.
.
The dust has polluted the original form of life. The body from the waist up has long been exploded, and the broken bones of the lower half of the vertebrae protruding from the waist are all the remaining traces of human beings.
This reminded Zhou Bawa of the first time he entered the imperial city, when he witnessed the body of the earthly lord being stained with 'dust', and briefly saw an illusion of his own head exploding, and the person in front of him had his entire upper body exploding.
Further up the lumbar spine, there are ruins of collapsed temple walls, damaged pillars and withered beams, dust-covered and collapsed statues of gods... The ruined temples are stacked like flowers on a body as tall as one person, forming a deformed monster that overflows from the body temple.
The arrival of Zhou Ba Wa disturbed the monster.
"No one has been here for many years..."
The deformed upper body piled up in the ruined temple turned around and spoke to Zhou Ba Wa. With a chaotic voice and an alien body, he spoke human language skillfully and used human manners, just like a man wearing human skin.
Alien species that can perfectly disguise themselves to replace humans are full of terrifying discomfort.
Zhou Ba Wa's scalp was slightly numb when he faced this thing. This San San thing is an old-fashioned man? Why does it look like this? Shouldn't it be the same species as their players?
According to the narrative background of the secular world, the generation of "Ye" is a grain-eater in ancient times. It has the same origin as the players. Human beings are the grain-eaters in the exile, and the grain-eaters are the human beings in the secular world.
When Zhou Ba Wa first met the Evil Immortal, he had never seen his true appearance through an iron door. This was the first time he had truly seen an authentic 'human being in this world', and it was a million times different from what he thought.
However, look at the familiar dust floating around the old man. Although it is deformed and dilapidated, it represents the iconic body temple of the "Zang Zang Method" practiced by mankind.
"Clan members from the exile?"
The old man made a sound and got off the iron bed. His skinny legs supported the ruined temple where his upper body was stacked, and he walked towards Zhou Ba Wa's direction.
Ganzhou Bashi said that if you have something to say, please don't come over.
"I hope I'm not so scary now. I've been covered in dust for too long. This old thing that should have been buried in the ground doesn't have much time to wake up." As he spoke, Mr. Shou came closer and leaned forward, as if he was looking at Zhou carefully.
Eight wax.
Zhou Baqi was facing the piles of deformed bodies from the ruined temples, which were so close to his face that he could clearly and meticulously see every tiny broken brick and tile on the ruins of the temples.
Okay, it's already scary.
Zhou Ba Wa stretched out his hand to push outward, but his hand passed through the old man's body. Obviously, this was not a real thing, just like the original dirty immortal, it was just an image.
However, it seems to be more advanced, because Zhou Baqi discovered that in the mobile game, there is no interactive option like before for the dirty fairy and other characters, but a chat box pops up.
This is?!
Zhou Ba wax: Can you talk to me?
Zhou Ba was typing on his phone and then looked up.
The old man reacted and murmured: "Is this the road they originally planned to leave for the closed exile? It's quite interesting, but it's a pity that I fell into the dust too early and couldn't participate."
After the old man sighed, he answered Zhou Baqi's question: "Yes, I can talk to you."
Surprisingly, what has been the biggest limitation of earthly exploration all along? It is a word game with only 'options'. Everything is random, even the choices. It is difficult for you to make completely satisfactory choices in the game. You can only do
Relative selection.
But if there is a dialogue chat box, you can control the dialogue by yourself, and the degree of freedom is different. This is the first time I have met Zhou Ba Wa. Is this a game mechanism? Or is this old man special?
Moreover, judging from the information collected in the game, this old man is a character with a key identity, and he has a lot of information...
The more Zhou Ba Wa thought about it, the more he prepared to do it. However, Shou Jiu's next sentence directly shattered his thoughts.
Conservative Master: "I know you have many questions to ask. In fact, I also have many questions to ask you, but no, the circulation of experience will aggravate the symptoms of dust."
Old Man: "Five questions, Lao Chan can only stay awake out of five questions. You have already used one by asking 'can we have a conversation' just now. Now, there are only four questions left between you and Lao Chan."
Old Man: "I am about to die, there is no need to know more. You are a child who came back from exile. Facing this vast world, I know that you must be deeply confused. It is a pity that I am trapped in the dust and did not tell everything to you."
Your chance is over, but I will do my last bit."
Old Man: "Four opportunities to ask questions are all left to you, and to the children of your exile, please be careful when asking questions."
Hiss, it was as if there was some destiny arranged somewhere, Zhou Baqi clearly felt that this was the adventure closest to the core secret of the world.
He met a living man who existed in legends in the secular world. According to the dirty fairy, he was the only secular creature with the ability to project reality and talk freely.
In the future, I'm afraid there will never be a second chance to get so close to the secrets of the world. However, at such a close distance, there is a natural chasm between them.
The restriction of the 'Four Questions' was only put forward by the conservative master, and it was not the whole of Tianqian. What was more important was the timing. Zhou Ba wax knew that he had another purpose in coming to the conservative master today, and this purpose would also squeeze out his own resources.
Just a limited number of 'four questions'.
Zhou Ba wax weighed the pros and cons and finally made a choice and typed out the words on his phone.
Zhou Ba wax: Do you know He Shenggen?
There are four crucial questions, but Zhou Ba wax used such a strange question to occupy a quarter of them.
The old man was silent for a long time and then said, "I don't know him."
Shou Jiu didn't say much else, but Zhou Ba Wa could read from the dusty body of the ruined temple that Shou Jiu wanted to ask him: Did you waste a question?
But it didn't ask, and even if it asked Zhou Baxi, he wouldn't answer, because both of them knew it, so it would be another wasted question.
When Zhou Bashi asked this question, he made a decision after considering it over and over again. He Shenggen once said that his eternal life was given by the old man. He also talked with the old man and they were friends. He even asked him to help find the missing old man...
...But, now, Zhou Ba wax and Shou Jiu actually met each other, and he found that something was wrong.
Analyzing from what Shou Jiuye said when he first appeared, the time didn't match up, and even what Shou Jiuye meant was that it had never been to the earth. Then Zhou Baqi asked that question. As expected, Shoujiu Ye didn't know He Shenggen at all.
This shows that the person who gave He Shenggen eternal life was not a conservative man at all. That person was lying, and that person also told He Shenggen that the tooth decay of the Evil Immortal was used to kill the Evil Immortal...
Zhou Bashi had a headache. If the answer just now was that Mr. Shoujiu knew He Shenggen, then he would have wasted one opportunity to ask questions. But now, he knew that the remaining opportunities to ask questions were probably lost, so he entered the second question on his mobile phone.
question.
Zhou Ba Wa: What happened to the dirty fairy tooth withering?
The Dirty Immortal Tooth Bride itself had been given to the Archaeological Bureau. Zhou Ba wax took out the photo of the Dirty Immortal Tooth Bride taken from his mobile phone. When Old Man Shou took a look at it, his whole body was covered in dust and the ruined temple was trembling, and he sighed.
Old Man: "Oh, my child, luckily it's you who came here. You really didn't waste the opportunity to ask questions. You are useless and can't be of much help. The children in the exile can only continue to struggle in the world on their own...
…”
The old man agreed with Zhou Baqi's question. He had been dragging his decaying body here for a long time, waiting for the children who had returned from the exile, and wanted to help them guide them.
But now it seems that it still falls short.
Old Man: "This is the locator. There are six in a set. The Evil Immortal once sprinkled them on the deserted 'exile' that drifted outside the world and had no fixed place. If one day it can recover any one, it can locate the exile."
The location of the earth, come in person."
Old Man: "Originally, the exiled land was just a barren land that was hard to find and difficult to locate in the world, with few resources and no value. But now it is the place that holds the last hope of the grain-eating family. The dirty fairy is a madman, you must
Can't let it retract the locator."
Six dirty immortal teeth were withered. Zhou Baqi had just heard the report from Jiang Xundao of the Archaeological Bureau and found five... Is Dacryling Mountain coming to snatch them today really because of this in his hand?
Zhou Ba wax raised his head and looked out the car window. Suddenly, there were a large number of meteor showers streaking across the night sky tonight.
Emergency news was received on mobile phones and radios: "Warning! There will be a meteor shower passing over the country tonight. The general public is requested to reduce travel at night to avoid being injured."
Zhou Ba wax turned the ignition on, put the car into gear, and turned the steering wheel. People in the news began to stop talking, and what he speculated did indeed happen.
Of the six tooth decays, he was probably only one-sixth of the Evil Immortal's layout, and one of the five discarded to confuse the audience. The last tooth decay was eventually obtained by the Evil Immortal.
When Zhou Ba's car drove to the entrance of Our Lady of Victory Church, he could clearly see that the people from the polling bureau were reorganizing their team, with serious expressions on their faces. Jiang Xundao was smashing the now useless tooth that Zhou Ba had just given him.
On the ground, he yelled and cursed.
Now, everything is clear. The nationwide operation of the Archaeological Bureau failed after all. Five tooth decays were snatched, but in the end they were unable to prevent the last one from falling into the hands of the dirty fairy.
Zhou Ba wax looked at the ridiculously dense meteor shower in the sky, and his phone rang, and he received a message in the game.
Dirty Fairy: I'll take a closer look at how you got rid of the dust. I'll come find you right away.
