After leaving the treasure house, they wandered aimlessly.
"Go to Anning Village and meet them early tomorrow morning." Chu Xin said.
According to the original plot, Jingtian and his party were not looking for the Earth Spirit Pearl immediately after arriving in Anning Village. Under the pressure of the situation, they would first encounter a series of events such as the incident of the fox demon Fang Yuzhi, the first meeting of Zixuan and Xu Changqing, and the revelation of Long Kui's life experience. Miscellaneous things.
Trivial matters have nothing to do with Chu Xin, and he doesn't want to interfere in other people's emotional affairs. This is why he came to the Qingling Demon Realm.
"Earth Spirit Pearl, tsk tsk! These five spirit beads are the most precious treasures of heaven and earth. If you get one of them, you will have unlimited power. I dare not imagine what it will be like to gather all five spirit beads. Unfortunately, the whereabouts of all of them are unknown, or they are in the hands of a giant. , For example, who dares to snatch the Fire Ghost King of the Ghost Realm who has mastered the Fire Spirit Orb? The Shushan Taoist Priest and his group will have to spend a lot of effort even if they have a map, but with the boss, you can save a lot of effort. " Hei. Ling said.
"Don't praise me, I'm weak." Chu Xin said calmly.
"Although I have never seen the boss go all out, I believe you must be hiding it!" Hei Ling spoke as straightforwardly as ever.
Suddenly, he stopped and pointed to a corner of the street, "Boss, follow me, there is a good place."
Chu Xin was surprised because the good place Hei Ling mentioned was not a brothel for listening to music, but an ordinary tavern, a simple tavern that only drank wine and did not eat meat.
Squeak!
In broad daylight, the old door of the tavern was closed tightly, with no desire to open it to welcome customers.
However, it is such a tavern whose interior decoration has been in disrepair for a long time, and there are many monsters sitting in it.
Most of them sat alone, separated from each other by a certain distance, and their lowered eyes were full of vigilance, which made the atmosphere in the room extremely depressing.
Chu Xin took one look and knew that these people were not here to drink.
Of course, he is not, and neither is Hei Ling.
"This is a tavern that specializes in purchasing information. Although we can't guarantee that we know everything in the world, when you want to find people or things, you may get unexpected results by trying here." Hei Ling lowered his voice and explained to Chu Xin, "Remember Just look at the winged gourd sign on the door outside. Information taverns can be found all over the demon world, even in some big cities in humans."
"I see, so what do you want to know here?" Chu Xin asked.
Hei Ling's eyes lowered for half a minute, "It's just some old things, hehe, please give me some time, boss."
"Nothing to do today." Chu Xin replied, then went to the counter to order a pot of low-quality spiritual tea, and drank it cup after cup.
"Boss, I'll be right back." Soon, Hei Ling was led by a waiter into the backyard of the tavern.
About half an hour later, he walked out alone.
Chu Xin raised his eyebrows and glanced at him, and saw the anger on Hei Ling's face that was trying his best to restrain himself.
Not ordinary anger, but a resentment that is suppressed and unforgettable to this day!
It seemed that the old stories in Hei Ling's mouth were of extraordinary significance to him, because this was the first time that Chu Xin felt the murderous intent that could not be concealed in Hei Ling's eyes, even in the face of the tiger demon and lion demon, Hei Ling's emotions His state was serious and prudent at best, but unlike at this moment, a surge of anger filled with sadness filled his chest, and he felt like a bohemian young man instantly transformed into a vengeful killer who endured humiliation.
He sat back opposite Chu Xin without saying a word, his thoughts still rolling in memories and not withdrawing from reality.
"Drink tea." Chu Xin pushed the cup in front of Hei Ling.
Hei Ling picked up the cup and drank it in one gulp, regardless of whether it was hot or not.
"Boss, am I aggrieved by how I look now? Are you almost crying looking at me?" He tried to return to his usual bad-mouthed appearance.
"Absolutely. Don't tell me, you look pretty cool right now." Chu Xin chuckled lightly.
"Boss, let me tell you a story." Hei Ling poured himself another cup of tea.
"Can I not listen?" Chu Xin answered without following the routine. It was probably about the information Hei Ling got from going in, which was his old story.
"Boss, you'd better listen. My emotions are in place right now, not to mention that it's uncomfortable to hold them in," Hei Ling was amused, "Please, I'm your dearest and most beloved little brother, don't you want to get to know me in depth!"
Seeing Chu Xin's acquiescence, Hei Ling stood up and opened the door, "Change a place?"
On the bank of the Qingling River, he looked leisurely at the girl playing the piano on the boat. There was no trace of male or female desire in his eyes, but pure appreciation and immersion.
"It's good to listen to music occasionally," Hei Ling began. "In the second year after I transformed, I left the small human town where I lived all year round and embarked on the path of exploration of the world. At that time, I...forget it, I'll just get straight to the point. I was walking among thousands of flowers and I met a girl, yes, a 16-year-old human girl. She was not that beautiful, not tall, just small. My hands were rough because of plowing, but I just loved it, especially her smile when she stood on the field and waved to me at dawn. It was completely different from listening to music, so I lived in the village. The next year, I married her, and in the third year, I had a son, and in the fifth year, I had a son and a daughter. During this period, I told her that I was a demon, and she said that she had noticed it a long time ago and she didn't mind."
Hearing this, Chu Xin guessed that the turning point was coming.
Hei Ling tied the long hair behind his head and continued to tell: "Until the sixth year, they all died. Except for me and a few men who went out to do shopping, there were nearly a hundred people in the whole village who survived. The murderers were four Vulture demon clan, when I rushed home, she had been eaten beyond recognition, my son and daughter were thrown alive from high altitude by them, and there were corpses everywhere near the village."
"As my cultivation was still shallow, I tried my best to kill one of them. The other three saw that I was going crazy even though I wasted my inner elixir, so they scattered and fled. I had no choice but to bite one of them, chase him for a month, and then kill and devour him. "Hei Ling's tone was indifferent and his words were simple, but it could not conceal the fierce grief and anger of the original fighting. "For the next thirty years, I searched for their traces in a hazy way. Until I heard that the other two were captured in the Demon Locking Tower, I deliberately After being captured alive by a Shushan Taoist priest and entering the Demon Locking Tower, I finally killed another enemy, but I did not find the most troublesome boss among the four vulture brothers. It is unknown whether he is dead or alive."
"As I spent hundreds of years in the Demon Locking Tower, her face gradually blurred, and I was also affected by the environment and no longer clung to the past, because I felt that those short few years were just a few years of my hundreds or thousands of years of life. A tiny bit of memory, there is no need for me to sacrifice a future full of infinite possibilities for the sake of the past," Hei Ling sighed, "But when I passed by the Intelligence Tavern, an idea came to my mind unconsciously, that is, there is one last one. The enemy's whereabouts are unknown, so I can't let it go~ As a result of this question, he is really alive, and even very happy."
"This is a clichéd story. I have heard no less than a hundred similar versions in teahouses, but it wasn't until it actually happened to me that I realized how unbearable the storyteller's plain 'tragedy' was. Let go, a person's death is always the longest indecision for the living." Hei Ling stood up on his knees and waved a friendly hand to the girl playing the piano who was walking away, as if saying goodbye to the girl in his memories.
Chu Xin was silent, this was indeed a story with nothing new.
However, just like when a clichéd movie comes to an end, the ending is revealed to be "adapted from a true story". In an instant, the unreal sense of isolation is torn and pierced.
"You don't have to confess this to me," Chu Xin said.
"Actually, it's nothing. It's just bringing up old things from more than a hundred years ago. What's the harm in chatting with the boss?" Hei Ling stretched and returned to his normal demeanor.
"Then what are your plans now?" Chu Xin asked.
"No plan," Hei Ling shrugged, "Well, I don't know, it's really annoying."
…
In the following time, Hei Ling did not show any abnormality, and his behavior was no different from usual.
But judging from the two seconds he spent staring out the window while eating, the number of times he looked at the enchanting succubus, the extent of his raised eyebrows, and the degree of sultryness in his words, he was trying his best to restrain himself.
Chu Xin didn't say much about this.
Whether Hei Ling continues to follow him or leaves for revenge, it is his own choice, and Chu Xin will not forcefully interfere.
"Boss, when will you transform and come listen to music with me?" Hei Ling said in anticipation, "Oh no, boss is a noble fairy beast, how can those rouge and vulgar powder get into your eyes! Sorry, We also have to deal with the mythical beasts!”
"With your mentality, if nothing happens, you will have no problem living for a thousand years." Chu Xin said with a smile.
"According to your auspicious words, I have to live for five, six or seven thousand years, so that I can see what the world was like at that time for my master who died early!" Hei Ling also laughed.
That night.
In an inn, Chu Xin turned to look at Hei Ling's bedroom.
Strangely enough, there was no sound of singing. Instead, the candle light was on uncharacteristically, and Hei Ling could be vaguely seen crouching at the desk, seemingly writing something.
It was still like this until the sky was getting dark. If it weren't for the shadow moving, Chu Xin would have thought Hei Ling had fallen asleep on the table.
squeak~
At about six o'clock in the morning, Hei Ling pushed open the door and walked out.
"Boss, do you want to buy anything else?" he asked Chu Xin opposite.
"No." Chu Xin replied.
They were preparing to leave the Qingling Demon Realm and go to Anning Village to join Jingtian and his party.
Chu Xin wanted to see if the holes on the mysterious stone ax matched the five spirit beads. If so, then he would pay more attention to collecting the five spirit beads. After all, it involved his arrangements for the future trip.
The two of them did not walk slowly, but flew to the entrance and exit of the Qingling Demon Realm.
The two guards must have known that they were their master's great benefactors, and they immediately greeted them warmly. Just as they were about to open the door, a sudden change occurred!
Boom——
The barrier near the entrance suddenly trembled, like a city gate being heavily bombarded by a battering ram, and a terrifying loud noise suddenly erupted.
In an instant, waves visible to the naked eye appeared in mid-air.
Boom——
Once again, the entire Qingling Demon World was trembling, and all the demon clans took to the streets in astonishment.
After two consecutive heavy attacks, the isolation between the demon world and the outside world weakened. As the green light gradually dissipated, the barrier turned into a faded glass cover. Chu Xin could see the scene outside, and the same was true outside.
"Hey~~~These guys? One by one, they are all human demon cultivators!" Hei Ling took a breath of cold air.
"Quickly report to the Demon King!" The two guards were shocked and hurriedly rang the giant bell, and the sound representing the enemy attack spread throughout the world.
Woo buzz——
The Qingling Demon Realm is located in a sunken valley. At this moment, there are already hundreds of figures standing on the cliffs in all directions of the valley. Even in the sky above, there are more than a dozen figures floating and flying relying on magic weapons.
They wore uniform black clothes, exuding the same dark evil aura, and each of their eyes was filled with bloody evil aura.
Just as Hei Ling said, these unkind figures are all human demon cultivators, and various traces indicate that they are a sect.
Obviously he came prepared.
Whizzing!
At this time, the masters of the Demon King's Palace, including Qing Demon King, Xuan Lao, etc., all flew up into the air, staring at the intruders sternly.
Naturally, the eyes could not scare away the enemy. The demon cultivators invariably released a stream of demonic energy, which condensed into a substance like a fist at high altitude, and then waved their hands together to make it fall down and hit the demon world barrier hard.
Boom——
After the third attack fell, the barrier, which was mainly used for concealment, was suddenly unable to maintain, and dense cracks appeared in the blink of an eye.
"Which sect is this? It seems that Rui'er's poisoning has something to do with them!" The Green Demon King could not suppress his anger, and the air flow around his body surged.
"That flag has already revealed its identity. It is a force that I have never heard of, such arrogant young men." Elder Xuan said with the same anger.
On a cliff, a flag fluttering in the wind was planted undisguisedly, with red letters on a black background and three large characters "Blood-devouring Gate" embroidered with flying phoenixes.
call!
Seeing that the barrier was already fragile, everyone from the Blood-devouring Sect pulled out their weapons and jumped down with their demonic energy.
boom! boom! boom!
The barrier is like cracked glass, shattering after being attacked by different parts.
At this moment, the Blood-devouring Sect was like countless dead waiters who did not know life or death, running quickly on the roof. They were not killing demons when they saw them, but heading towards the demon king's mansion with a clear goal, forming an all-round outflank for the Green Demon King and others. .
"Qingling Demon Army, prepare to fight!" Qing Demon King shouted sharply.
"Ah!"
The guard army composed of hundreds of monster clans were not afraid of death and gathered in an orderly manner to guard the surroundings of the Demon King's mansion.
"The real master is here, I want to see what they are going to do!" Elder Xuan raised his eyes and looked, and a blood-red light quickly appeared in his field of vision.
Whoosh!
"The Blood Devouring Sect is doing business, please leave by yourself if you are not interested. We will not be held responsible if you are accidentally killed!"
A majestic and violent voice echoed, and the speaker came flying with a bloody sword. Judging from the attitudes of the disciples around him, he was most likely the master of the disciples.
"I am Yan Tu, the leader of the Blood-devouring Sect. Today I will wipe out the Green Spirit Demon Realm and kill all the Blue Demon Kings. If you want to meddle in other people's business, please cherish your efforts in human form~" Yan Tu threatened, and the tiger His body shook, releasing powerful demonic energy.
His words were indeed effective. Ninety percent of the demon clan in the Qingling Demon Realm were shaken and fled this place of right and wrong one after another. However, they secretly felt sorry for such a peaceful demon world and prayed that the Qing Demon King could kill the enemy.
However, in this uniform crowd, there is a small figure swimming upstream.
"Um?"
The people in Black Ling were all stupid. At this time and in this situation, according to normal logic, shouldn't they quietly retreat behind everyone and then seize the opportunity to escape?
Why is it that his boss is doing the opposite and is so excited that his delicate body trembles?
"Boy, opportunities are not only treasures and favors, but also precious opportunities to kill each of the living enemies!" Chu Xin said, and the restrained murderous aura began to overflow, like a rising tsunami.
If the proficiency level has not reached 30%, he might think twice about it, but right now, what is there to hesitate about?
Feeling this terrifying and heavy murderous aura, looking at Chu Xin's eyes hidden in the mountains of corpses and seas of blood, Hei Ling, who had long been suspicious, finally confirmed that his seemingly calm and steady boss was actually a super contrasting crazy fighting maniac. .
"What the boss is teaching us is that these demon cultivator scum that are causing harm to the Six Realms should all be eradicated!" Hei Ling's momentum changed and he was ready to go. (End of chapter)
