The seven of them wandered around the city until almost noon when Senior Sister Qinqin, who received a lengthy phone call, suddenly said that she had something urgent to deal with and left in a hurry.
As soon as the senior sister left, Li Wenqing shouted to find a place to have lunch.
"I heard that there was a particularly delicious Sichuan restaurant on the stone street this morning. How about it? Do you want to try it?" He said and licked his mouth very greedily.
"Sichuan food, it sounds good." Xi Meng didn't seem to object to Li Wenqing's suggestion. She said with a smile, "I only had Sichuan food once when my friend and I traveled to Jincheng (Sichuan) two months ago. Now, I still miss the taste of stir-fried pork.”
"Then let's go eat Sichuan food." Ren Zihua agreed absentmindedly. He didn't have time to think about eating at all now. His messy mind was thinking about the bizarre scenes on the Magic Stone of Heaven, and about going to the Forbidden Library at night. Which book should I choose to most efficiently improve my strength? I kept reviewing in my mind the unknown magic book that I only understood three pages of after reading it all night.
What does the moment when the sky is full of stars on the Magic Stone of the Sky mean? The fatigue from studying magic all night has not come to his door yet. Ren Zihua's non-stop thinking has delayed the invasion of sleepiness.
After a while, the six people returned to the alley where they had gathered in the morning. Not far from the mushroom house, they walked into a beautiful Western restaurant and ordered five dishes and one soup on a square table inside.
"Sure enough, all the buildings here are European style, and even a Sichuan restaurant has such a uniform decoration." Shen Yan said a little boringly, "What do you think the senior sister is doing? What is so important. "
"I don't know, but she looks quite anxious." Li Wenqing put a piece of fragrant fried pork into his mouth and said, "Don't worry about senior's personal affairs. What do you think Prince Wilson went to church to do?" Well? Are you going to arrange the wedding venue in advance?"
"Speaking of princes, I really never thought that I would be able to meet the legendary Prince Wilson in my lifetime, and just yesterday I saw the true face of Emperor Yinyue." Xi Meng said in a somewhat ecstasy Said, "I'm really glad that I was admitted to Moxi College."
"Indeed, ordinary people like us can only see a big shot like him on TV at most." Feng Xiaolan paused with his chopsticks and said, "The wedding between him and Princess Yinbi next week will definitely be quite shocking. Bar."
"What's the use of being shocked? Love can't be born instantly through a superficial grand wedding." Li Wenqing said with some frustration, and then began to immerse himself in the meal.
Just as Ren Zihua was surprised by Li Wenqing's obsession, he also noticed many things that looked like reward orders posted around the restaurant.
"Why are there so many stickers in restaurants..."
"Are you talking about those reward orders?" The male waiter passing by happened to hear Ren Zihua's question, "You are freshmen and you may not know that although the students in our school have not graduated yet, many of them have already become capable There are many independent professional swordsmen or magicians, and there are also many people who join guilds. These bounty orders are posted in all restaurants in the royal city and updated in real time, so that students with enough ability can see them."
"So that's it." Ren Zihua suddenly remembered that there were some such wanted posters posted in the mushroom house where he had breakfast, but there were only a small number.
Having become somewhat interested in this, he simply finished his meal and ran to the wall to look at the wanted posters.
There are many kinds of these wanted notices, not only the blue ones with bounties on monsters, but also many red papers with bounties on ghosts. This immediately made Ren Zihua think of one of the seven tribes he saw on the mysterious APP before. The existence of the "ghost tribe".
The ghost pictures on the red notice are quite scary. Judging from those pictures, the so-called ghosts seem to have postures similar to humans, but their faces are extremely ugly, and they all have wrinkled and twisted faces. People are afraid of having nightmares at night.
Ren Zihua also found that the bounty amounts of those ghosts were almost generally higher than those of Warcraft. Does this mean that the threat of ghosts is greater than that of Warcraft? He couldn't help but think so in his heart.
"I really want to become a professional swordsman soon, so that I can kill these monsters with bounties on my head and get paid." Li Wen walked up to Ren Zihua coldly and startled him.
"There's one thing I still don't understand. How did these monsters and ghosts come to the world? Logically speaking, isn't our world and their world separated by something called a boundary wall?" Ren Zihua suddenly remembered something like this. asked.
"Well, I remember hearing the teacher say it before. It seems that there is a mysterious phenomenon called multi-dimensional fluctuation in this world, which will cause confusion at the spatial intersection of the three worlds, so that some monsters and ghosts can take advantage of this opportunity to come. To the human world." Li Wenqing explained as best he could.
"These three worlds? Is it possible that only our human world has this mysterious fluctuation phenomenon between them?" Ren Zihua asked strangely.
"It is said that tens of thousands of years ago, the world of humans, the world of demons and the world of ghosts existed on the same plane." Seeing that Li Wenqing couldn't answer, Xi Meng, who was still at the dinner table, continued to explain. , "But I don’t know what happened later. The three races were separated into three worlds, so only the ghosts and demons would occasionally come to our world by mistake, while the elves were the elves that were extremely difficult to master. Only by summoning magic from another space can we come to the human world."
"It is said that in that distant era when humans, demons, and ghosts stood on the same continent, there was never a cessation of war between the three races. Each race wanted to defeat the other two races, but no race finally realized its ambition. "The knowledgeable Meng Zhuanghu added, "But these stories are somewhat like myths and legends."
I see. So, that guy with half the strength of the Demon King took advantage of the chaos in space to come to the human world? Wait, if the Demon King can come to the human world so easily, then what has he been waiting for for this thousand years? Why hasn't he come to take revenge now? Could it be that the trauma suffered thousands of years ago was so severe that it took such a long time to recover? The more Ren Zihua thought about it, the weirder he felt.
"Do you know?" Feng Xiaolan said in an abrupt and serious tone at this time, "It is said that the monsters and monsters that can come to the world through multi-dimensional fluctuations are just minor characters in their original world. That’s it, even those supernatural-level monsters and evil spirits that we define as the highest danger level are like this.”
So that’s it, is this the reason why the Demon King never came? That's why he now sends the man in black to help him achieve certain goals and help him retrieve the magic sword. So what will he do next? What will that man do next? Why has he been silent for such a long time? Is he still planning some conspiracy? Such as the trick that brought Eternal Night into this world?
"How did the Demon King from a thousand years ago come here?" Ren Zihua asked eagerly, and he turned his curious eyes to Feng Xiaolan who was still sitting at the dining table.
"Why are you talking about such a depressing topic..." Xi Meng muttered, and then, like she had done many times before, she turned her head slightly and slowly moved her gaze towards the wall where she was still standing. Looking at Ren Zihua next to her, she found that Ren Zihua seemed to be very different from before. Maybe it was because the time of acquaintance was too short. She had never seen the expression on Ren Zihua's face as serious as now.
"I heard that Yong Ye broke the boundary wall by relying on his own strength." Feng Xiaolan had just finished speaking when he heard someone burst into laughter.
"Hey, man, you have to draft a draft even if you are bragging, right? It sounds like it is true." A boy at the next table mocked with joy, "There has never been any book that said that Yongye was a thousand years ago. How did you come to this world, and how come you are so confident about it?"
"I guess he just wants to show off in front of the girls. He's really good. He dares to make up anything." Another boy mocked in a low voice, "Hey, look at that idiot standing by the wall. That idiot seems to believe it. , look, damn, I’m laughing so hard.”
"Ha ha ha ha!"
The restaurant immediately burst into harsh jeers. Xi Meng felt very uncomfortable. She wanted to stand up and argue with the other party, but when she looked at Feng Xiaolan beside her, she found that the expression on the latter's face did not fluctuate at all. It was as if he hadn't heard the previous taunts and the laughter around him at this moment. She looked back at Ren Zihua again, and found with the same disbelief that his firm eyes had not changed at all, and he was still looking in the direction of Feng Xiaolan, waiting for the second half of his words.
Why not angry? Xi Meng was full of doubts. Shen Yan and Meng Zhuanghu both looked embarrassed and embarrassed, but in Xi Meng's eyes, the changes in their expressions were the reactions that normal people should have.
Just as Li Wenqing was about to rush towards the person who was leading the heckles, Ren Zihua grabbed his arm.
"Yongye is the strongest among the four demon kings. Thousands of years ago, he forcibly broke the boundaries by himself. However, the world-destroying demon king who lost half his life after being defeated by the four chosen sons no longer has the ability to forcibly cross the boundaries. Ability." Amid people's ridicule, Feng Xiaolan continued to say calmly, "As far as I know, if he really wants to return to the world as predicted thousands of years ago, then he must use the six demons. Eye."
"What magic eye?" Although Ren Zihua didn't know how Feng Xiaolan learned these things, he was not shocked by it. Instead, he inexplicably trusted the suddenly elusive man in front of him and his sudden lies.
What happened to these two people? What on earth is Feng Xiaolan talking about? Shen Yan simply felt that the scene happening in front of him at this moment was completely unreasonable. What? Are all geniuses mad?
Seeing the people around them smiling more and more from ear to ear, the three people still sitting at the dinner table could no longer eat, and the expressions on their faces could not hide their embarrassment.
"Hey! Look at these two fools, they are getting more and more enthusiastic."
"The so-called demon eyes are the six demon caves left by Yong Ye thousands of years ago that can break the boundaries if they are destroyed at the same time. Each demon eye has a demon clan member whose strength is far higher than the supernatural level demon beast." Feng Xiaolan continued to speak extremely calmly, and Xi Meng beside him also began to listen to his words carefully, "Those demon clan members have been sealed away for thousands of years now."
Hearing this, Ren Zihua fell silent. He suddenly turned away and looked at the laughing people in the restaurant. He instantly understood that if what Feng Xiaolan said were true historical facts, then modern people would actually not know these truths. But where did Feng Xiaolan know these truths that had been buried for a long time and that ordinary people had no way of knowing?
But in this way, Ren Zihua understood what the man in black was planning. He expected that the bastard who had some connection with the Demon King would definitely go to the six Demonic Eyes in order to unseal the Demon clan members after finding the Demonic Sword, and then have them destroy the Demonic Eyes at the same time to usher in the real world-destroying Demon King Yongye. .
"The person who fought with you at Qixia Mountain that day, do you know his true identity?" As soon as Feng Xiaolan said these words, Ren Zihua could no longer remain calm. The look on his face suddenly became very frightening, and he glared. His big eyes stared straight at Feng Xiaolan's back.
"Feng Xiaolan, what on earth are you..."
The noisy students around them also became quiet at this moment, and the laughter suddenly stopped at this moment, just because a purple-haired swordsman holding a sword in his right hand slowly walked in.
Liu Chenhe? ! Why is he here? Seeing the sudden appearance of the Twelve Swordsmen of Protecting the Country, Xi Meng and Shen Yan at the dinner table widened their eyes in disbelief.
"Ren Zihua..." Feng Xiaolan didn't seem to notice Liu Chenhe's appearance. He turned around and looked at Ren Zihua with frightening murderous intent in his eyes, "You actually know, right? What exactly is that man? who is it?"
...
On the second floor of the castle, Emperor Yinyue, who had just finished a meeting, was taking a bath in a huge bath that could accommodate a hundred people. The bath was so big that from a distance you couldn't even see that there was a person in this huge pool. . He was enjoying the hot bath water with a contented look on his face. Just as he was feeling comfortable, a girl in a gorgeous dress suddenly opened the door and burst in front of him.
"Brother, why do you want to marry me to Prince Wilson on your own initiative?" The girl's delicate face was already covered with tears. "Have I not told you many times before? I already have someone I like. , why do you still do this?"
"Don't say that. I'm doing this for your own good, brother." Yinyue responded calmly, as if she had expected that the princess would come to cause trouble, "Why are you barging in so aggressively? You're so old and you still want to Take a bath with my brother?"
"Did all those agreements you made with him turn out to be lies to him? You are so shameless!" Princess Yinbi's choked voice trembled with anger, "You clearly said that as long as he can win the Hundred Cities Sword next year, He won the first prize in the meeting and agreed to let me marry him, but now he has gone astray..."
"Hmph..." the emperor said with disdain, "It's just that kid. I just said that to make him quit."
