after an hour.
Gu Yuan was sitting in a black car. A man named Zhou Zhen was sitting in the back with Gu Yuan. Ge Fei was sitting in the passenger seat. The driver was a bald man wearing a crisp suit with a very conspicuous heart at the corner of his mouth. The scab is dotted with a crooked hair like a crime.
Looking at the scenery outside the window, Gu Yuan coughed twice, and Zhou Zhen very considerately handed over a bottle of water.
"Where are we going?" Gu Yuan asked.
"Star City."
Gu Yuan was a little surprised: "Take me home?"
Zhou Zhen laughed and said, "You can say that, but we are from Star City."
Zhou Zhen was a little surprised.
"Since you are members of the Demon Suppression Division, there should also be members of the Demon Suppression Division in Haicheng, right?"
Zhou Zhen scratched his head and said helplessly: "This matter is too complicated to talk about."
Ge Fei, who was sitting in the passenger seat, sneered rudely.
"If the people in Haicheng could discover the demon realm, they wouldn't have waited until now."
Gu Yuan heard that Ge Fei's words were somewhat targeted and personal.
"How about you take a rest." Zhou Zhen said, "When we get to Star City, you still have to be busy."
Gu Yuan frowned and said nothing.
Perhaps seeing the worry in his heart, Zhou Zhen continued: "Don't be nervous, we just want to know what you went through in the Demon Realm."
Gu Yuan was silent for a moment and asked, "What exactly is the Demon Realm?"
Zhou Zhen was slightly startled and asked doubtfully: "You haven't heard of it?"
"Maybe I have seen some information online, but there are too many versions and there is no definite one."
Zhou Zhen was silent for a moment and said: "You can understand that when enough or very powerful demon spirits appear in a certain place, that area will form a demon realm.
After the monster is killed, there will be demon souls remaining, and some of the demon souls will corrode a nearby object, or worse, a certain person. However, this is not difficult to deal with. What is more difficult to deal with is the demon realm. "
Gu Yuan seemed to understand, and nodded dully.
"Speaking of which... it's thanks to Senior Xu Qingzhi who has been suppressing the demon realm all these years." Zhou Zhen said with some emotion, "If it weren't for senior, once the demon realm of that level spreads freely, I'm afraid..."
"What will happen?" Gu Yuan asked.
"The entire sea city will be eroded." Zhou Zhen took a deep look at him, "Imagine that a city is completely eroded and enveloped by the Demon Realm. What will happen? Tens of millions of people will become the nourishment of the Demon Realm. Looking around They are all crimson...heh, is that hell on earth?"
Gu Yuan was stunned, and his admiration for Xu Qingzhi grew even more.
"By the way, is this yours?" Zhou Zhen suddenly took out a plastic bag.
Looking at what was in the bag, it was his MP3.
"Thanks."
"No, your bag is still there. I found it in the carriage." Zhou Zhen said, "It's quite new. Some people still use this thing to listen to music."
Gu Yuan laughed: "It's just to relieve boredom. This thing is old, but I didn't expect it to still work. Do you want to try it?"
"No need." Zhou Zhen said seriously, "I think listening to music with speakers lower than 5.1 Dolby channel is just dumping garbage into your ears."
"???" Gu Yuan looked confused.
What's wrong?
"By the way, in addition to this MP3...should there also be a piece of jade?" Gu Yuan said seriously.
"Are you talking about the soul jade? When we found you, you held the soul jade to death." Zhou Zhen said, "It took me all the strength of nine cows and two tigers to pry your fingers open, but the soul jade It should have been taught to you by senior Xu Qingzhi, right?"
Gu Yuan nodded.
"We're keeping the soul jade temporarily and can't give it to you." Ge Fei, who was sitting in the passenger seat, said.
Gu Yuan said "Oh" and said nothing. After all, it was not his own thing.
Because he was driving back to Star City, it was a long way and there was no scenery to see on the highway. He slowly closed his eyes and wanted to take a rest.
I don't know how long I slept this time.
When I was woken up, I arrived at the midway service area.
"Where are you?" Gu Yuan asked.
"Baicheng, there are about three hours left." Zhou Zhen said.
Gu Yuan nodded and walked towards the bathroom.
Walking into the dimly lit bathroom, the air was filled with the strong and pungent smell of disinfectant.
At the door of the toilet, two middle-aged men were leaning against the wall and smoking. It was difficult for Gu Yuan to understand what kind of psychological activity this was. Why did so many people like to smoke in the toilet?
As soon as he unbuttoned his pants and took out the faucet, Zhou Zhen suddenly walked up to him and chose an adjacent seat.
"Sweet double row!" Zhou Zhen said with a grin, and started to burst into life very naturally.
Gu Yuan looked around and saw that more than a dozen seats were empty. The behavior of Zhou Zhen who had to choose the seat "next door to others" was simply anti-human!
"Aren't you going out?" Zhou Zhen asked.
"I'm squatting in the pit." Gu Yuan said with a dark face.
"Okay, hurry up then, I'll get you something to eat."
After Zhou Zhen left, Gu Yuan found a place to go in.
"This man is mostly a pervert." This is what he thought in his heart.
I don't know what considerations Zhou Zhen and the others had in temporarily taking away his mobile phone. Although Gu Yuan originally turned off his phone when traveling, "without it" and "having it but not using it" are completely different states.
The friend next door must have sounded like a young man. He was still talking on the phone at this time, his voice was loud, and he was a bit complaining.
"Are you still a human being? I drove for eight hours for you, and you drove me away without even letting me see you?"
"What? Your family doesn't agree? I don't understand. Why does your family disagree with us falling in love?"
"What? Your husband doesn't agree? You..."
Gu Yuan, who was next door, couldn't help laughing when he heard this.
The victim knocked on the partition with his hand to express his dissatisfaction.
Being idle is also idle.
Gu Yuan took out the MP3 player again.
When I opened the plastic bag, I found that there was still one battery.
Put the headphones into your ears and press play.
Although the sound quality is not particularly good, it is even accompanied by a "sizzling" sound.
But for Gu Yuan.
Every song in it is a microcosm of a certain stage of my adolescence.
Suddenly, the sound of music in the earphones suddenly sounded far and near, vaguely present.
He tried unplugging the headphone jack, plugging it back in, and bending the headphone cable, but it still had no effect.
At this moment, both headphones fell silent.
All that could be heard was the faint sound of electricity.
Gu Yuan frowned and was about to turn off the MP3 player when a sound suddenly came from his headphones that made his back shiver.
"Hehe, brother, are you skipping rope?"
Familiar and cold.
