Since civil aviation in this era is still in the era of DC-3 passenger aircraft, the cruising speed of this aircraft is only 331km/h.
It took the plane three times the modern equivalent of seven hours to cross a distance of more than 1,300 kilometers and arrive at Shanghai Hongqiao Airport amid the cold wind and rain.
Ten minutes later, Cao Yi, Ying Lin, Yang Huting, and Li Wanhua arrived at the airport exit, a deserted waiting area.
Cao Yi raised his head and glanced at the night sky, which was already as dark as ink just after seven o'clock, and asked casually: "When will the O'Connors arrive in Shanghai?"
"Tomorrow at seven o'clock"
Yang Huting replied immediately.
It was clear that the O'Connors' itinerary was completely under his control.
"Where do we live?"
Cao Yi asked again.
"This is Baldy Jiang's territory, and my identity is relatively sensitive..."
Yang Huting is unusually talkative and his voice is very low.
"where?"
Cao Yi interrupted Yang Huting.
"Shanghai Museum"
Yang Huting replied.
Same as the original plot.
Cao Yi secretly said.
"Our car is here"
Yang Huting said.
Two classic cars with small blue flags that often appear in anti-war dramas drove slowly over in the cold wind and rain.
Yang Huting took a step forward and opened the car door.
Cao Yi was about to get in the car,
Boom!
A huge cyan claw grabbed Ying Lin behind from the night rain. There are many golden scales on the surface of this giant claw, and black evil and violent aura constantly emerges, making it impossible to guess what kind of species it is.
But one thing is for sure, if you catch Ying Lin who has no magic power, you can definitely kill her on the spot.
With a thought, Cao Yi blocked Ying Lin's face with earthen walls one person high.
"哐"
There was a loud noise, and the giant green claw hit the earth wall, causing cracks that were more than half a foot long.
"go"
Cao Yi whispered, and countless cold rain turned into countless sharpest arrows in the world that rushed towards the giant cyan claw from all directions. With dense banging sounds, small holes the size of thumbs appeared on the giant claw.
With a bang, the giant claw exploded into pieces and turned into a ball of black gas.
Crunching...a sound that sounded like something was being chewed came from the black air.
Rumbling, the black energy expanded, and a huge bloody claw came out. It was bigger, faster, and had more evil energy than before. The target was changed to Cao Yi.
The distance of a few meters was reached in an instant.
As soon as Cao Yi pointed out, the power of Wanhua Dao Jue surged out.
The giant bloody claw melted at a speed visible to the naked eye and fell to the ground, turning into a piece of black debris.
In the distance, there was a sound of surprise.
Then a blurry figure disappeared into the endless night.
"Princess, are you okay?"
Yang Huting's concerned voice came.
"I'm fine"
Yinglin's voice also sounded.
Cao Yi turned around and saw Ying Lin walking out from behind the earth wall. Everything was normal except for some water droplets on her face and hair.
"Taoist Master, thank you"
Ying Lin said.
Cao Yi nodded, "As long as it's okay."
"Did she already know that and send someone to kill me?"
Ying Lin's eyes were a little dim.
Cao Yi knew that Ying Lin was talking about Ziyuan, and shook his head gently: "It may not be the one sent by Ziyuan."
Yinglin looked confused.
…
About twenty minutes later.
On the bank of the Huangpu River blown by the cold wind, there is a beautiful typical southern garden with rockeries and small lakes.
That day, an old man named Mutsuhito, who had the same name as the late Meiji Emperor of Japan, appeared in an unknown shrine in Kyoto. He hurriedly came to a Japanese-style house, bent down and said very respectfully: "Your Majesty, I and I We fought with the Taoist priest who killed Lu Sheng."
"He used a few sticks of incense to break my forbidden weapon."
A cold voice appeared in Mu Ren's mind.
"He He"
Mu Ren hesitated.
"explain"
There was a hint of impatience in his voice.
Mu Ren hesitated and said, "Less than five breaths."
"Less than five breaths"
The sound is a bit unnatural.
"And one more thing"
Mu Ren wanted to speak but stopped.
"explain"
The voice returned to coldness.
"According to the latest information coming back from Xi'an, the Taoist priest entered the Mausoleum of the First Emperor and sealed it before he arrived. It is very likely that the physical body of the First Emperor is in his hands."
Mu Ren finished his words.
With a bang, the door opened automatically, and a huge statue appeared.
Waves of frost that were several times colder than the weather outside emerged from the statue. For a moment, the room was filled with white.
Even though Mu Ren was a practitioner, he shivered from the cold.
A ray of blue light emerged from the statue, and then, a shadow containing huge soul energy appeared in front of the statue.
"His Majesty"
Mu Ren could not bear the pressure from his soul and knelt down tremblingly.
The shadow walked out of the house step by step, gradually solidifying, and it turned out to be an old man dressed in the Qin and Han Dynasties.
"Two thousand years later, His Majesty will return to the world."
The old man, or rather Xu Fu, felt a little sad.
Mutsuhito knelt on the ground and said respectfully: "His Majesty Emperor Kammu is the only emperor."
Xu Fu sneered, "I am just an insignificant minister in front of His Majesty the First Emperor."
Mu Ren said: "The First Emperor of the past is still the First Emperor of the past, and the His Majesty of the past is no longer the His Majesty of the past."
Xu Fu said nothing, seemingly lost in memories.
Mu Ren didn't dare to disturb.
After about five minutes, Xu Fu asked, "How are you preparing for what I asked you to prepare?"
"Everything is ready. When both Jiang Jiajun and the Taoist priest are harmed, it is time for us to take action. The First Emperor's innate five-element Taoist body is in your majesty's pocket."
Mu Ren said confidently.
Xu Fu nodded slightly.
"Your Majesty, I also have my eye on a physical body."
Mu Ren said again.
Xu Fu turned his head and raised the corners of his mouth slightly: "That Taoist priest?"
…
The next day, in the early morning, the damp and cold wind swept gently, shining in through the broken glass window, caressing everything gently, and then left quietly. The pale daylight also occupies every corner, covering the door with a pure white veil.
In the room, the purple-gold-red gourd carrying the ancient well of spiritual energy is constantly spewing out the spiritual energy of the five elements in five colors.
One step away, Cao Yi, who was sitting cross-legged, kept absorbing. His chest sometimes towered like a mountain, and sometimes sank like a ravine, which was very scary.
"Ding!"
A crisp beep sounded.
Cao Yi opened his eyes and waited for the system to proceed.
"Congratulations to the host for completing the manifestation in front of the main plot characters, Alex and Yinglin."
"Reward: Essence of Fire"
"Origin: A certain cultivation civilization that has multiplied to its peak, the largest source of life, the Fire Domain"
"Use: Integrate into the powerful fire element, merge into the fiery eyes and golden eyes, and achieve the offensive fiery eyes and golden eyes."
Melt into the fiery eyes!
Cao Yi was a little moved.
Because I could never find a high-level fire, my fire eyes and golden eyes had been stagnant since I cultivated them into the Heavenly Eyes of Heaven.
"Is there any danger in blending in rashly?"
Cao Yi asked uneasily.
The system is unresponsive as usual.
Cao Yi pondered for a while, then gritted his teeth and said: "Integrate into the fiery eyes and golden eyes."
