162 The Reality You Have to Face
After leaving Zhu's house, we got on the plane to Z city overnight.
We planned to fly there directly, but considering that Xuanwu has already alarmed the snake, we can only act in a low-key manner.
As if aware of her poor condition, she offered to rest in the ring for a while. Of course, I have no objection. In the ring, at least I can have absolute control, and I won't have to save things if something goes wrong.
There were basically no people on the night flight, and there were only me, Qin Luo, and Linger in the first-class seats.
The Qingjuan boy naturally became the most popular existence. He was treated preferentially along the way, and all the mothers who looked at me were envious.
Fortunately, it didn't take long, the plane had already parked at the airport in City Z at two o'clock at night.
I don't know if it's because of the rain, but the whole city is shrouded in a layer of misty fireworks, and there is also an inexplicable smell of earth in the air.
Considering the issue of time, we did not go directly to find the ruins of the Shang Dynasty.
Instead, I stayed in a chain hotel. I remember that when I came here, Su Han once took me to a small shop, where there was news leading to Fengmen Village, and news that the traffickers were going elsewhere.
Thinking of this, I dragged Linger out of the hotel again on the grounds that I was hungry.
Qin Luo wanted to follow, but I stopped him. Although I don't know why he suddenly rejected me and Su Han so much, but I can make him feel better, and I won't let him touch what he doesn't like. Things, after all, he already has enough things to do now, there is no need to make everyone unhappy because of a little thing.
Fortunately, I found the store that year,
Unfortunately, the boss has changed, and the man who claimed to be the new boss softened a lot when he saw Su Han's ring on my finger.
"Since you are a friend of the old man, then you can ask."
"But I can only answer one question, this rule cannot be broken!"
I nodded, looked around and found no suspicious traces, and then said: "I want to inquire about a place, the ruins of the Xia Dynasty."
"Xia Dynasty Ruins?" The man's voice suddenly rose several octaves, and then he slid off the stool.
"Yes, I'm looking for the ruins of the Shang Dynasty."
"What are you doing?" There was a glimmer of light in his eyes, and he suddenly looked out of the door. The tattered door curtain suddenly turned into a black curtain, tightly blocking the door.
Sure enough, it's hidden deep, it's just a look, the most important thing is that I didn't notice any trace of spiritual power fluctuations.
"Rescue."
"Your friend?" He narrowed his eyes and glanced at Ling'er who was smiling sweetly, the shock in his eyes was beyond words. "You are"
I coughed and tapped lightly on his counter with my fingers.
Finally, the fat boss didn't continue to ask about the afternoon, but returned to the counter, and kept busy in the drawer with trembling hands. From time to time, various small things flew out of the drawer, some even looked like bronze wares.
But those priceless treasures are like rubbish at this moment, thrown on the ground at random, without even looking at them.
Seeing beads of sweat on his door, I felt more and more confused.
Just as he was about to speak, he finally emerged from behind the counter with a roll of parchment in his hand.
"This is for you, let's go!"
Linger and I looked at each other, not knowing what happened to him.
As soon as I took the parchment off guard, my body was pushed out of the shop by a gentle force. I watched in a daze as the shop in front of me began to change the door, and then a figure slipped out from the back door. It was the strange fat boss
Ling'er wanted to chase after her, but I stopped her.
"It's not a bad person, stop chasing it!"
Ling'er stopped in her tracks, with a faint smile on her lips, stared at my hand, and then said: "But he has a lot of secrets, if that's the case, let him go, in case he is caught by the enemy yank to go"
"Secret?" I raised the corners of my lips, inexplicably feeling a little emotional: "Who can have no secret? But do you think, if he sees our identity and dares to run away, how can others easily catch him? "
"Too."
Linger and I ate something outside again before returning to the hotel.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Qin Luo sitting there with no expression on his face, his pale face was bluish, his eyes were red, and the surrounding was frosty.
"What's wrong with you?" I was surprised, and stretched out my hand to open the curtain to let the sunlight in.
The dazzling sunlight shone on the red hair, as if polishing his hair.
Qin Luo, who was illuminated by the sun, moved his eyes slightly, his thin eyelashes trembled, and swept away the hostility, and when he looked at me again, he had turned into tenderness.
"You're back. I'm fine. Just thinking about something."
I gave Linger a look, and the boy shrugged and entered the room consciously.
Qin Luo stretched out his hand and pulled me into his arms, rubbing his head on my shoulders non-stop, and those hands began to walk dishonestly on my chest.
"Anzhi. I want you." A deep and hoarse voice sounded around my neck, and those cold haired lips fell on my neck, depicting blossoming red plums.
Suddenly, he bit my ear, reached into my clothes with one hand, and skillfully unbuttoned Wen Xiong. When I came back to my senses, I was carried to the bed.
Those gentle eyes and skillful movements took away my mind little by little and made me familiar with his body.The evil little flame spread from the palm of his hand and ignited my body.
At this moment, I didn't think about anything anymore, and I relaxed my whole body, lying obediently on the bed, cooperating with him.
After several ups and downs, he still refused to get up, lying on top of me while pinching my face and my ears. In the end, I was so crushed that I couldn't stand it, so I stretched out my hand and pushed him away. , turned over and lay on the side.
The separation of the body made me feel a sense of loss that I couldn't express for a moment, but when I thought that I still had a lot of things to do, I quickly adjusted my mentality back.
"An Zhi." The man looked at me with loving eyes, and made a gesture to pull me into his arms, but I avoided it lightly.
"Tired" I moaned tiredly, and closed my eyes directly.
In a daze, a pair of big hands stroked my cheeks and threw me into the water.
I knew that Qin Luo couldn't stay idle, so I didn't bother to open my eyes to resist. I didn't recover from my deep sleep until the sun was about to set in the afternoon.
Ling'er gave me a very disgusted look, gnawed on the apple and didn't speak.
Qin Luo was sitting on the chair beside the bed, poking around with a PAD-like thing in his hand, his brows almost never loosened.
"Anzhi, are you awake? I'm going to ask someone to make dinner."
I limply stretched out a hand from under the quilt and grabbed him: "Let's go out to eat later, I've already got the address, we'll go directly to the Xia Dynasty ruins after dinner."
"Really?" Qin Luo said pleasantly, holding my hand tighter.
I nodded, and took out the parchment from the storage bag.
Qin Luo didn't shirk, and took it directly and looked at it seriously. The more he looked, the more his beautiful eyebrows were furrowed together.After a while, the smile on his face had completely disappeared. He stared at me for a long time before he said, "Anzhi, haven't you read this scroll yet?"
"Yeah." I stared at him suspiciously, I was eaten by you as soon as I came back, I have to have time to watch it.
Qin Luo moved his body, got closer to me, slowly unfolded the scroll in front of me, gestured with his fingers, and said very slowly: "Look here, and here, this is clearly a huge spirit lock array !"
"Spirit lock array? Does it mean to lock people's spiritual power?" I haven't really heard of this, after all, my own body is immune to all of this.
"No, no, it's even scarier than that, it's the soul that can lock everything!"
"Like a ghost?"
"More than that." Qin Luo closed the scroll and handed it to me carefully.
I raised my hand and put the thing back into the storage ring.
Qin Luo pondered for a moment, and then explained the reason why he was abnormal just after I came back. It turned out that after we left, he went back to the underworld again, and then went to the residence of the old Pluto unintentionally.
It happened that Qin Shang was not there, so he just wandered around there alone, but he didn't find anyone, but he heard a conversation. He couldn't tell who the other person was, but one of them was very sure that it was Qin Shang's confidant.
It's just that he just wanted to expose it when he bumped into Qin Shang.
He intentionally or unintentionally mentioned the matter of "Menghui Daxia", wanting to make the underworld pay attention, but Qin Shang's attitude is casual, don't think too much about what you say, everything is very good.
Qin Luo was originally not good at words, and he was very angry after being said for a while, so he returned to the world directly.But when he came to the human world and took a look at the storage bag where he put his soul, he was surprised to find that those souls bound by the game began to die inexplicably.
And the way of death is also very strange, as if a good-looking person was directly drained of his soul.Those memories of the past also disappeared. He tried to get a few people out of it, but the result was the same. Those ghosts just turned into nothingness as soon as they came into contact with the air.
Not even the black fragments remained.
"If you say that the person behind the scenes is your father, what would you do?" I thought this would be a proposition of the century, but I didn't expect that Qin Shang would start digging a hole for himself after only a few days.
Since Qin Luo spoke by himself, I just asked a few questions along the way.
However, what I didn't expect was that Qin Luo answered very directly.
The four words slammed in front of me so loudly that I didn't know what to do.
He said I don't know.
Then he changed the subject, and I saw a trace of escape and helplessness in his eyes.
Things that I thought would go well turned around again, making me wonder what to do and what else to do.
Fortunately, there is Ling'er who has been smoothing things out for thousands of years, and when he sees that we are not talking, he speaks up.
The original plan was to go out to eat, but it turned into a casual meal at the hotel. We all had a tacit understanding and didn't mention the game anymore. After eating, we went straight to the Town God's Temple in City Z.
I thought it would be a big temple, after all, it is an old town, and it is also a temple with a long history.
But when I got there, I realized that everything I thought before was an illusion.
Although it has been renovated, it is still difficult to hide the dilapidated city walls and slopes.
The ones enshrined in that temple are not bodhisattvas, but three generals. Those who saw their life and deeds were very brave.
There are no monks or Taoist priests here, and there are a group of uncles and aunts sitting at the door.
Some are small traders, some are playing chess and walking birds, which is an exhilarating experience.
After dark, mahjong stalls were set up under the street lamps, crowded with people, and there was a smell of fireworks everywhere, which didn't look like the place where the ruins were.
I glanced at Ling'er, and the boy's face was also full of confusion.
On the contrary, it was Qin Luo who suddenly pointed at the general in the main hall and said seriously: "I have seen this man, and after this man died, he went to one of the halls of Hades to be a judge!"
"really?"
"Well, I can't be wrong! Although I can't remember where the two went, but one thing is certain, that is, these three have status in the underworld."
As he spoke, his voice became more and more dim.
"Moreover, none of these people was promoted by me later, but they have been in the underworld since I can remember."
The spearhead was directed at Qin Shang, forcing Qin Luo to face it.
