I don’t know when an antique grocery store appeared on the streets of Shinjuku District, Tokyo. Pedestrians passing by occasionally glanced sideways. It is really rare for such an inconspicuous shop to appear in such a place where land is so valuable.
It's just that the people in this country have lived under repressive rules for too long. They never have any unnecessary curiosity and are unwilling to get involved in other people's affairs. As long as they don't cause trouble to themselves, even after the war breaks out, they I probably won't have any extra thoughts. At most I will be concerned about wages and prices.
Occasionally, passers-by would go in to buy something and come out without noticing anything unusual.
Huaiyin was sitting on the recliner behind the counter, watching TV calmly.
What was playing on this old TV was not a program from any TV station in the world. The picture showed a huge volcano spewing out terrifying thick smoke. Burnt flesh and lava-like blood splattered into the sky, and the ashes were all gone. It fell like a turbulent tide, accompanied by terrifying landslides, and countless crystal white bones fell down.
The final scene is fixed at this moment, with the collapsed volcano looking like a huge strange bird corpse.
The billowing smoke finally condensed into a face wailing in despair.
"Can't the great ancient ancestor also get rid of this temptation?"
Jing Ci walked in from outside the store and hung his umbrella on the shelf at the entrance of the store.
He was wearing a dark suit today, with no extra color on his body. He even took off the watch on his wrist, as if he were attending a funeral, solemn and solemn.
"came back?"
Huaiyin smiled and said, "You're not causing trouble, are you?"
Jing Ci shook his head and said: "You have told me that the cooperation between the Ether Association and Lishan Tianyan Pavilion is the foundation of the entire human world. How could I mess up? What's more, I just went to see her, No matter how unhappy those false ancestors are, they will never wake up an ancestor to kill me, right?"
"If that's the case, then I don't have to show any mercy."
He walked into the bathroom and said, "My hands are itchy."
"Just take it easy."
Huaiyin smiled and said: "This time, the human world has indeed achieved an unprecedented victory. Not only did it completely kill an ancient ancestor without any loss, but it also fished out the great god behind her."
Jing Ci washed his hands and asked casually: "Complete death? This is rare for the ancient gods."
"If the ancestor of the Kui bird hadn't also wanted to seek evolution, then she wouldn't have died completely. The strategy team led by Lin Dong wouldn't have killed her so easily."
Huaiyin looked at those pale human bones and sighed: "See for yourself what these are."
Jing Ci walked over and took a look: "Human bones."
"This is a body created by Kui after devouring countless human beings and using his own bones and blood. Unfortunately, without exception, it cannot carry its own power. Otherwise, she would have had a chance to be reincarnated. After endless years, Buzhou Mountain Maybe a new Kui will be born, but that has nothing to do with her."
Huaiyin drank hot tea and said, "Because it will be a brand new individual."
Jing Ci said softly: "Changing flowers and replacing trees with trees. This is probably the method used by Master Zhulong. The difference is that she is a true supreme. What is very strange is that in ancient myths and legends, there are often only gods with higher rankings. Only then can they show human postures, and the lower the level, the more animalistic they are. So we often see human-shaped gods sitting in the sky in ancient murals, with all the beasts galloping under her throne."
"That's because only the most powerful Supremes are more adaptable, but they are limited to too much power and are always rejected by the world, and have to take desperate risks."
He suddenly said: "But if Venerable Zhulong's true identity is really who we think she is, then she has actually completely adapted to human rules and even mastered the breathing of heaven and humans. For Lei Lei, the level of ascending to immortality is... It is a life-and-death test that must be completed. So what does it mean to Master Zhulong?"
Huaiyin was silent for a moment and sighed: "Evolution."
Jing Ci said expressionlessly: "Will the Ancient Supreme also pursue evolution?"
"Of course, this is something that my junior brother and I have already determined since we came back from space. In the vast universe and thousands of galaxies, the ancient gods are a race that can achieve interstellar travel. Why did they choose the earth in the end? That's because of this planet The planet is special, and they have to come here to seek opportunities for evolution."
Huaiyin took out a simple wooden box from the cabinet. There was a golden branch in the box, and said softly: "This planet is not as simple as we thought. You are also someone who has seen real history, so you should know it." Something happened here hundreds of millions of years ago. The ancient gods also had enemies."
Jing Ci poured himself a glass of wine and said calmly: "The Hermitage? After this incident, I thought the real owner of the Hermitage was Lord Suzaku, but judging from what you mean, that's not necessarily the case?"
Huaiyin shook his head: "Who knows, if there is a path to a divination master of my level in this world, it would probably be clear. Just like your grandma is not sure who the person who attacked her is."
Jing Ci drank in silence and asked, "There's something I'm curious about."
Huaiyin raised his eyebrows: "What?"
"Everyone says that Green and Red were the first humans to discover the Priory."
Jing Ci suddenly asked: "How did you discover it in the first place? Don't tell me that you deduced it from historical clues. Although I am not as proficient in profiling as my junior brother, I can still see it. What do you think about the world? Everything is indifferent, but when it comes to the Priory, there is an unforgettable hatred."
Huaiyin smiled silently.
"First of all, even if there is no grudge between the Priory and me, I will destroy them with my own hands. In my opinion, life is meaningless if it is not to go to the sky. I was not born to look up to others. , and I don’t want my life to be dominated by others. If there really is a god in this world, then I can’t stand that the person sitting on the throne of god is not me. Secondly, you are right, the relationship between me and the Priory , there is indeed a grudge.”
He made another pot of tea and said calmly: "Finally, the person who first discovered the Hermitage was actually not our senior brothers. It's surprising, right? The person who first discovered the Hermitage was my master's wife."
Jing Ci held the wine glass for a moment, causing the liquid to ripple.
"It's just that in the end, it was our senior brothers who lit the fire called anger."
Huaiyin sighed: "It's just like it was yours before."
Jing Ci looked at the old man seriously, waiting for an answer.
"That's a long time ago."
Huaiyin said softly: "Let me think about it, where should I start?"
His thoughts seemed to be transported to the distant past by the wind along with the drifting cherry blossoms.

This is Gu Jianlin's first trip in his life. He has never really experienced the customs and customs of a foreign country before, especially the city of Tokyo, which is undoubtedly the largest and most populous in the world. Just like A new dimension opened in front of him, but he was lost in the bustling and hustle and bustle.
In contrast, Tsukihime is a person who has seen the world, is also proficient in Japanese, and is also very good at playing.
They took him wandering around the huge city like two crazy rabbits.
At this moment, they had just taken the Shonan Monorail, flying through the city and passing through dark tunnels.
Check in and take photos at various attractions.
There were only two of them along the way, and the Si family's servants had already been left behind.
With the blessing of the Indestructible Lock, you don’t have to worry about being followed.
Although they are all wearing masks, there is no need to worry about being regarded as a strange person.
After all, in a place like Yingzhou, there are too many middle school students, and you can often see various cosplayers on the street.
"I didn't expect you to be so familiar with this place."
Gu Jianlin was eating chocolate ice cream, leaning on the red railing, overlooking the scenery under the stairs, and said with emotion: "The roads are so familiar, I feel dizzy just looking at those intricate subway lines."
Yue Ji took a bite of his ice cream, hugged a cup of hot milk tea, leaned against him lazily like a cat, and said casually: "Correction, I am not familiar with this place at all."
This is a long staircase surrounded by red railings located near Suga Shrine.
There is a very famous anime movie "Your Name", and the last scene was shot here.
Gu Jianlin was slightly startled.
Yue Ji drank milk tea and said lazily: "I have wanted to come here for a long time, so I have made a lot of strategies. I have checked every route and every place I want to visit, so I am so familiar with it."
Gu Jianlin was stunned. She must have been to Yingzhou many times.
“Every time I come here, I never go to the place I want to go.”
Yue Ji glanced at him, and there was a hint of charm in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows: "It's no fun to play by yourself."
Gu Jianlin knew that with her talent and beauty, she could easily find a partner.
You can even bring your sister to play with you.
But she didn't come until today because she just wanted to come with herself.
This trip is meaningful only if you are with the people you like.
He suddenly felt a little guilty because he had never even taken her to play with Fengcheng.
"I'm too boring."
He hesitated: "Sorry."
"Why are you apologizing? Although you were in pain when you went shopping with me, you performed well." Yue Ji bought a lot of clothes and cosmetics today, as well as the figures she longed for, as well as roadside snacks.
The mood is already very happy.
There isn’t much to do in one afternoon, so Suga Shrine is the last stop.
Next, we have to rush to the location designated by the military advisor.
Fortunately, the missions issued by military advisors are always relatively broad, and it is enough to arrive within the specified time.
Not so many tedious meetings and requirements.
It's really painful for Gu Jianlin to want to go shopping with you, except when he watches her try on clothes.
All kinds of cool little skirts look very eye-catching on her.
Of course, this trip was not aimless, because in addition to eating, drinking and having fun, they had been looking for the location indicated by the mysterious coordinates in this huge city.
But when they arrived at the location as directed, they found nothing.
The place shown by the coordinates was a commercial street. They searched for several hours but found nothing.
"Tang Zijing doesn't know how to talk nonsense. This coordinate must have some other meaning."
Gu Jianlin analyzed: "If it was found so easily, I would feel strange."
"It makes sense. The secret that they can protect with their lives must not be that simple."
Yue Ji nodded slightly: "In short, there is still plenty of time, so take your time."
"Let's go, from this moment on I will keep a distance from you."
She walked forward carrying large and small bags and waved to him.
Gu Jianlin was silent for a moment and smiled silently.
I have to say, it still smells like homely flowers.
Not only can I tease you from time to time, but I won't put even a little pressure on you.
If it weren't for various reasons, as well as the factors of his parents at home, he would most likely have followed it.
Suga Shrine is located in Shinjuku District, hidden in an old residential building. It is only five kilometers away from the designated hospital. For the two ways to slay ghosts, it is nothing.
This is also the reason why Suga Shrine is chosen as the last stop of today’s trip.
After arriving at the hospital, the good mood brought about by the trip was completely overturned.
Because a barrier has been set up here, ordinary people without spirituality cannot see the whole picture here. Only the sublimated people can see the seal surrounding the hospital entrance and the guards from the Youying Group.
"What a strong smell of blood."
Gu Jianlin waved his hand, then took out his cell phone, retrieved his text message, and handed it to the guard.
Tsukiji also did the same action. This was their way of confirming their identity.
"Let go!"
The captain of the security team said.
Next, Gu Jianlin saw the photo he had seen on his phone.
This is a private hospital affiliated to the Youying Group, which is used to dissect the corpses of ancient gods and ancient gods to conduct some unknown research. After Miyamoto Kojiro's death, he was naturally transported here and was personally cared for by four sixth-level ascendants. Logically speaking, there shouldn't be any problems.
However, just this morning, four sixth-level ascendants died without anyone noticing.
All the doctors and researchers in the hospital also died.
There was blood everywhere in the hall, and blood was even dripping from the broken ceiling. Bodies lay scattered on the ground. Everyone's face had an expression of horror, and their eyes were gray and frightened.
Without exception, a large hole was opened in their chests, and their organs had rotted away.
A strong fishy smell permeated the air.
The cameras and lights were destroyed, and sparks were coming from the open power distribution room.
Gu Jianlin tried to profile, and what appeared in front of him was a dark hall. The lights went out in an instant, and strange shadows flashed in the darkness, killing the people here with lightning speed.
Come and try it quickly. 】
No, that's not right.
He had a vague hunch that something was wrong with the scene he had sketched out.
"What's wrong?"
Yue Ji looked around, she was not very good at breaking gums.
Gu Jianlin came down and looked carefully at a dead female nurse. She was very beautiful and had a pair of slender legs. However, after being disembowelled, she looked as scary as a ghost.
Half of the face covered in heavy makeup was stained with blood, making it look hideous and terrifying.
Just when he closed his eyes and tried to profile deeply for clues, a strange picture suddenly appeared in his mind, because the dead female nurse actually opened her eyes, and an iron mask spread over half of her face. He seemed to have turned into a fierce ghost with a green face and fangs, and the other half of his face was actually smiling strangely.
Damn it!
It's the same feeling as being in a horror movie again.
Gu Jianlin is actually no longer afraid of horror movies, but he is afraid of the surprises in the movies.
Directors these days are not very good at creating a scary atmosphere, and they will suddenly make a movement to scare you.
But this time is different.
Because the corpses in the entire hospital actually raised their heads, half of their faces were rapidly alienated, as ferocious as evil ghosts, and the half of their intact faces were smiling strangely.
It seemed that in the depths of the darkness, countless strange monsters smiled sternly at him.
That terrifying and twisted face seemed familiar.
It actually looks a bit like...Kui!
"No, isn't Kui already dead? There is absolutely no chance of him surviving."
Gu Jianlin retreated subconsciously, and those strange corpses seemed to stand up and walk towards him step by step.
This strange scene seemed familiar, because the pseudo-ancestors of Tianyan Pavilion were also like this.
Only this time it was even more weird and terrifying.
At this moment, Gu Jianlin suddenly noticed something.
There was actually a tiny wound on these people's foreheads.
And it's in the same position.
