Dongpo City is a very common human city on the Snakehead Continent.
In the city, there are many tall buildings, countless steam locomotives shuttle between the cities, and countless pedestrians are crowded on the narrow roads.
There are many electric street lights on the side of the busy urban road.
Many pedestrians subconsciously look up at the newly built street lights in the city.
Electricity is a brand new concept to many citizens of Dongpo City. Many people do not understand how those street lights can shine without emitting smoke. According to the common sense of citizens, no matter what kind of machine, it should be accompanied by It's just right to catch the billowing steam.
Pedestrians gathered around many electric poles, looking at the notices posted on the poles, and from time to time there were muffled discussions.
"This month, ten more people were escorted to the capital for being possessed by demons. Why is it that the city hall, which has had no presence in the past few months, posted notices everywhere.
Being possessed by a demon is nothing new. In the past, people were shot on a certain day, so why do they need to be escorted to the royal capital now? "
"You have been to your hometown in the countryside in the past few months. Don't you know? This time it may not be a small demon sect involved, but several famous demon sects in the country.
It is said that armed law enforcers from the royal capital were dispatched. "
"It's also possible that the demons at the top of the Kingdom's Most Wanted List were forced into our city by armed enforcers. Now, the city has a curfew every night. The factories that have secretly worked overtime in the past few months have been directly closed down by the city hall. It is said that there are A few people with connections to heaven were not spared."
"Hey, can't these demon sect members live a peaceful life? Even if you want to make trouble, go to those big cities to make trouble. Why are you making trouble in our mountain city?"
Outside the crowd, a young man with his head tilted to one side, a handsome face, and a tall figure wearing cheap work clothes quietly listened to the discussion among the crowd.
Just then, several men wearing armbands and uniforms came over from the other side of the road.
The young man did not leave, but tilted his head slightly and looked towards the street.
Those people surrounding the pole also spotted several men with armbands one after another. Their muffled conversations suddenly fell silent. They lowered their heads subconsciously and hurried away, as if those men with armbands were some wild beasts.
When several men with armbands were about to pass by a young man in overalls, the leading man suddenly paused.
Looking at the young man, several others also followed the leader's gaze and looked at the man with the armband.
"Guo Kong, it seems that you have been dismissed again, offending the second lady of the Luo family. Although Dongpo City is big, I'm afraid there is no place for you. The property left by your damn father has been destroyed over the years. You've spent a lot of money, right?
Listen to my brother's advice, sometimes lower your head, and you will find that the road is easier. "
The leader, Shen Hu, said.
Several other men with armbands also smiled happily.
They spent quite a lot of time in contact with the young man in front of them.
It can be said that the fundamental reason for this young man's frequent job changes is the second lady of the Luo family, but the direct reason is armband men like them.
Seeing that Shenhu couldn't persuade him, Ruoyouruowu taunted him a few times. This was all part of the process.
Guo Kong just glanced at Shen Hu and ignored him.
Perhaps because of Guo Kong's contemptuous look, Shen Hu didn't finish the "process" this time, so he walked away with a sullen face.
When Shen Hu spoke, none of his subordinates followed him to mock Guo Kong. After all, they all knew that it was fun for them to mock Guo Kong at this time, but if Guo Kong really "bowed his head", they would be the ones who would suffer at that time. After all, their relationship is not as strong as Shen Hu's, and Guo Kong is not afraid of turning around.
After walking for a long time.
A new subordinate under Shen Hu asked in confusion:
"This Guo Kong is the son of the Guo family. I still remember meeting him once when I followed my cousin into the city three years ago. At that time, this man was a big shot. He was a professional warrior as a bodyguard, and he traveled on famous brand motorcycles. The scenery is endless, how come we are in such a bad situation now? With the height of Guo's building, even if it collapses, it will take a while for the roof to hit the ground, what's the matter?"
Before Shen Hu could answer, another senior boy spoke,
"It's you who asked the right person, otherwise most people would really not know what's going on inside."
After speaking, he squatted for a while, gained enough momentum, and then said:
"The eldest son of the Guo family is indeed a prodigal. Within three months of taking over the motorcycle number, he misappropriated funds and tore up the contract in various ways. Just to collect antiques, he sold many motorcycles privately.
Of course, if this were to be the case, the accumulation of several generations of the Guo family would not be completely defeated by him so quickly.
Mainly relatives of their family, plus the Luo family of the aristocratic family."
"alright."
Shen Hu interrupted displeasedly.
Several other younger brothers also shut up, as if their instincts silenced them when the family was mentioned.
Shen Hu ignored his younger brother. He was not really afraid of the Luo family, or in other words, he was afraid of the Luo family in Dongpo City. The Luo family in Dongpo City was just a declining branch of the Luo family, although he was only a member of the Shen family. A marginal person, but the Shen family is one of the four major families in Dongpo City and the oldest family in Dongpo City. He will not take the initiative to provoke the Luo family branch, but he is not afraid either.
Shen Hu knew that many people looked down upon him for flattering the second young lady of the Luo family. Even some young people in the Shen family felt that he was disgracing the Shen family.
But Shen Hu had his own plans. On the surface, he was working for the second young lady of the Luo family. In fact, he just wanted to force Guo Kong into a desperate situation.
It wasn't that he had any grudge against Guo Kong, but that by collecting Guo Kong's information, he determined Guo Kong's purpose of prodigal.
If Shen Hu guessed correctly, Guo Kong's purpose was to "become a demon", or to practice forbidden methods.
Most people who want to be possessed by a demon cannot do so because they do not have "qualifications". Most of those who can be possessed are small fishes because their qualifications are not high.
If Guo Kong was a miscellaneous fish demon cultist, Shen Hu might not care too much, but he knew one thing from a piece of information that was mostly destroyed. Guo Kong's qualifications were very high. As for how high they were, because the information was incomplete, Not sure.
But that's enough.
Guo Kong is regarded by Shen Hu as a stepping stone to break through class. Of course, it is just a fish he raises now. Only by cooking it carefully can the fish grow fully.
I want to force him to a dead end, but it is also because this fish is not on the right track and never takes the first step, which is inevitably worrying.
Shen Hu turned his head slightly and said silently in his heart:
"Don't let me down."
Guo Kong walked on the road calmly. Many girls along the way subconsciously slowed down and looked at him secretly. Some older young women stopped directly. It was not until he passed by that they glanced at his back with nostalgia before taking another step. .
Guo Kong unlocked the door and walked into a slightly dilapidated mansion.
In the densely populated Dongpo City, there is a large house with several entrances and several exits. You can imagine Guo Kong's previous family status, although the current house looks dilapidated because it has not been maintained for a long time.
After bypassing some gravel, tree branches and leaves along the way, Guo Kong started to get some ingredients in the steam refrigerator to cook.
Soon, a not-so-excellent meal will be ready
Midnight, underground wine cellar beneath the bedroom.
Guo Kong, who had his eyes closed, suddenly opened them.
Opening his left hand, Guo Kong accurately saw a mountain peak with the strokes of "Liao Liao" in the dark night, or in other words, the image of the hill was printed on the palm of his hand.
"Although the Black Heart Temple has a very bad reputation among many demonic believers, the Black Heart Divine Seal has always been priceless. Even the kingdom does not dare to smear the Black Heart Lord God like it smeared the ancestors of other demonic religions. It is conceivable that Know that this is where the true eternal law exists.”
The Black Heart Temple is another name given to the Temple of Tongtian by the members of the Demon Cult in the Kingdom.
It can be seen from the name that this place is the location of the real "demon". The basic operation is to take human lives seriously. Among them, transactions include exchanging materials, exercises, etc., and even collecting taxes. It is simply outrageous. In addition, there are There are a lot of weird rules.
It has long been rumored among the Kingdom's demon cultists that the Black Heart Temple does not force you to burn, kill, and loot, but the chaotic taxation gives you no choice.
That's right, as soon as you entered the Tongtian Demon Realm, you were charged the spiritual energy tax without doing anything. After all, the spiritual energy in the Tongtian Demon Realm was so rich that you had to breathe.
As for whether the breathing of some demon cultivators who are still mortals as reserve personnel will consume spiritual energy, it is said that the Lord Black Heart has never given an explanation on this issue.
As for the lack of spiritual coins and spiritual stones to pay tax, you choose to waste them?
From tapping body parts to extracting longevity and even depriving souls, there is always a service that suits you.
It is said that there are countless demon cultists gathered in the Black Heart Temple, many of which are more powerful than those on the kingdom's wanted list.
Entering the Black Heart Temple will bring you opportunities, but it will also be accompanied by countless bloody events.
Think for a long time.
Guo Kong fixed his gaze, stared at the palm of his hand, and silently said in his heart: "Tongtian Temple, destiny leads the way!"
In a trance, colorful light emitted from his palm, and the light gradually enveloped Guo Kong's entire body.
"Is this the magic light shield that is said to have killed the most demon cultists?"
Guo Kong thought.
This colorful light has become a guiding light for catching black-hearted believers.
The transmission of the seven-colored light takes tens of seconds if it is short, and two to three hundred seconds if it is long.
What's even more deceptive is that this magic light teleportation has no protection measures. Even if it reaches the last second, it will be interrupted immediately after being hit out.
This colorful light is very bright even in the daytime.
Most of the demon cultists who tried to escape through teleportation were caught.
After all, a transmission of tens or even hundreds of seconds is enough for law enforcement officers to drink a cup of tea and do stretching exercises before arresting someone.
This time, Guo Kong didn't wait long, only about a hundred seconds.
In a trance, Guo Kong arrived at a space surrounded by colors. He kept rolling forward. The rolling made Guo Kong dizzy again and again. After finally adapting, Guo Kong landed. After shaking his head, Guo Kong was now in the space. A grass reed room.
"Hey, another unlucky guy is here. Three unlucky guys have been sent away this month. I hope this time the unlucky guys are not so poor. It is best to leave your wealth here with Wanda when you go out to collect for the first time. Otherwise, I will I can’t pay the rent.”
Following the sound, a little man with butterfly wings flew in from the broken window and smiled at Guo Kong.
