The Tale of the Kraken

Chapter 163 The mysterious old man
The car did not go to other places according to the ideas of the few people, but drove straight to the urban area.

Yang Yang raised his eyebrows involuntarily, and asked, "Your client is in the urban area?"

"Well, to be precise, our headquarters is in the urban area." Huang Liu nodded, leaned over from the passenger seat and explained to several people, "Now she lives in our headquarters, hey, it's almost here, Did you see the red building in front, it’s there.”

Everyone looked at the huge clock on the red building, and suddenly had a strange feeling. The clock was like a huge eye, looking down on every corner of the ice city from above.

Yang Yang remembered that when they first came to Bingcheng not long ago, Yuan Mu and Yue Bing asked Bainiaomen to help find out Hu Weixian's whereabouts.At that time, he didn't think much about it, but now that he thinks about it, the reason why the two of them approached Bainiaomen was because they already knew that they were quite powerful, right?

Thinking of this, the car stopped in front of the red building, Huang Liu opened the door and jumped down, and said to everyone in the car: "Here we are, everyone, get out of the car!"

Several people got out of the car one by one and followed him into the building.After entering the elevator, Huang Liu pressed the button on the top floor, then turned his head and said to everyone: "I told you before that my client never likes to be popular with outsiders. This time, she asked to see Chacha by name, but in the end What's going on, I don't know."

"I don't know?" Yang Yang raised his eyebrows when he heard what he said, "Since you don't know, why did you speak so urgently on the phone, let us come over as soon as possible?"

"Although I don't know the specifics of this matter, I know that my client is not someone who can make something out of nothing." Huang Liu said, glanced at Yuan Mu and said, "I don't know if I have told you that I The reason why that client became my client is because she has been buying various magic weapon pills from us for a long time, of course, it is not uncommon for us to have one or two long-term clients."

"But this client of mine has always wanted one kind of goods, whether it's magical artifacts or elixir, as long as it is used to prolong life, she will never refuse. After a long time, things like this in the door , we will keep it for her. Everyone knows that my name is Huang Liu, and I am the sixth generation head of Bainiaomen. My master is Zhang Menqian of the previous generation, and his name is Huang Wu. They’ve already started buying things from us when we were here.”

He said, sighed, glanced at Chacha and said: "I can be regarded as he watched him grow up, and all these years, I have never heard her mention about myself. Only once, when I was young , I saw her real body once, it was a red snake, and after I came back, the master specifically asked me not to tell this matter." After he finished speaking, he looked at Yuan Mu and said, "I don't know if Mr. Bai Ze Have you ever heard of the God of the North Sea?"

"The God of the North Sea... you mean... Xuanming?" Yuan Mu thought for a while, then nodded and replied, "I heard that he is the ancient god, why did you suddenly mention him?"

"Ding dong——" Yuan Mu's voice had just finished, when the elevator issued a notification sound for reaching the floor, which interrupted what Huang Liuzheng was about to say. He smiled helplessly at several people, and then said: "The specific matter , you should ask her."

As he spoke, he got out of the elevator first, and the people who followed him got out of the elevator and were startled by the sight in front of them.Unlike the layout they had seen before, everything on the top floor was demolished except for a few load-bearing columns.

Unlike the bright sunshine outside, the windows on the entire floor were covered by thick curtains, and the only thing that was lit was the warm yellow lamp specially placed above the head.

This made the originally unusual environment all of a sudden even more weird, especially those few pillars, against the light, they looked like ghosts waiting for an opportunity to move.The scene in front of him shocked Yang Yang, he subconsciously took a step back, and bumped into Zhou Liang behind him.

"It's okay, we're here." Zhou Liang understood his mood very well, and said softly beside him, "Follow Yuan Mu closely."

Yang Yang nodded immediately after hearing this, Zhou Liang didn't need to remind Yang Yang to know that, in such a weird place, it is a wise choice to follow these great gods.

"Aunt Hong? Aunt Hong... here we come." Huang Liu was used to this kind of environment, and he called out as he walked in, "Aunt Hong, the person you want to meet, I'll bring you gone."

"Xiao Liu'er?" Finally, in the darkness, an old voice sounded, the voice was slightly hoarse, "Bring them here, let me see."

After saying this, the dim lights around gradually became brighter, and the layout of the entire room slowly appeared in front of everyone.Not far away, there is a group of blue sofas, and there is a huge bed not far from the sofa, but other than that, there is nothing in the whole space.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were on the old man sitting on the sofa talking to Huang Liu.

Yang Yang looked at the old man and thought to himself, at such an old age, shouldn't he keep buying life-extending things?Don't talk about her, if I had money, I would buy it myself, who wouldn't want to live longer!

Here Yang Yang was complaining in his heart, while the monsters over there were stunned the moment they saw the old man.Monsters are raised by nature, except for those bred by a few ethnic groups, most of them can run and jump from birth.But no matter what kind of monster, it will not grow old.

They will always maintain what they want, until death takes them away and returns to the world.Therefore, in the legends of the world, there has never been a monster who died of old age, and the old man in front of him, with such a strong monster aura, must be a monster.

But since she is a demon, she shouldn't grow old. Coupled with what Huang Liu told a few people about her in the elevator, they were even more sure that the shape in front of her was not what she deliberately wanted to create, but rather It was a last resort—her lifespan and magic power left her no longer able to maintain her own form.

"You...are you the red snake that Xiao Liu'er mentioned?" While several people were observing the old man, the old man was also observing them. She looked around the crowd, and finally fixed her eyes on Chacha, "Come on, Come and let me see you, kid."

Chacha looked at the old man's serious and expectant eyes, blinked, and walked slowly towards her.And at this moment, a pair of hands grabbed her suddenly, stopping Chacha from moving forward.

"Wait a minute." Seeing Chacha turn her head to look at herself, Zhou Liang frowned, and said softly, "Wait a minute..."

"This... Xiao Liuer, you found it?!" Who would have thought that the old man didn't care about Zhou Liang's obstruction, but looked at him with surprise, turned to Huang Liu and said, "You finally found it for me... ..."

Now not only Yuan Mu and the others, but even Huang Liu was confused. He looked at the confused people, blinked his eyes, and asked, "Aunt Hong, what are you talking about? Who did you find?" ?”

"It's the tortoise I entrusted your master to find... Emperor Heaven paid off, and finally let me find it when I was about to fail..." She said, beckoning to Zhou Liang, and said: "Come on, Come here! Come and let me see... I finally found it..."

Zhou Liang looked at the old man waving to him and hesitated for a moment, then let go of Chacha's arm and walked slowly towards the sofa.

Seeing him walking towards him, the old man smiled even more happily, turned his gaze to Chacha and said, "Come on, you come too, child, come here and let me see..."

Chachajian looked at the old man, then at Zhou Liang who was walking towards her, and followed.

The old man looked at the two people in front of him, nodded in relief, and said, "After all, the heavens have treated me well, and finally let me see it." After she finished speaking, she beckoned to those who were still standing there. He waved and said, "Come on, I'll tell you what's going on."

"You must be Bai Ze, right?" The old man looked at Yuan Mu who was approaching and said, "I heard your name mentioned before. At that time, the human race still lived in caves. How can it be like now..." The old man finished with emotion He looked at Yang Yang again and said, "Now this world has long been dominated by the human race."

"Aunt Hong, what you told me before..." Huang Liu spoke at the right time, interrupting her to continue to sigh, "Now that the Lord is here, why don't you say it again?"

"Yeah." The old man nodded, thought for a while, and then continued: "Where do I start, let's start with Beihai. Beihai, there is a sea god named Xuanming. Although he was born noble, he has a weird temper. Later, at the request of the living beings, heaven and earth sent down divine beasts in all directions, and the divine beasts in the north are Xuanwu."

Yang Yang raised his eyebrows when he heard her words, thinking, the legends he had heard since childhood were actually true?Such things as the Quartet Divine Beast really exist?He thought about turning his head to look at Yu Zhongwu. Could it be that the so-called Dong Qinglong was him?

"Yinglong and Qinglong are different." Noticing Yang Yang's movements, Yuan Mu explained softly, "Yinglong's status in the Dragon Clan is much higher than that of Qinglong guarding the East Sea."

"Different from other divine beasts, because of the bitter cold in the north, and because of Xuan Ming's eccentric personality, it is necessary for the divine beasts to stabilize the North Sea when he riots, so as to protect the living beings in the North Sea, so Xuanwu is a turtle and a snake."

"I know that." Yuan Mu nodded and said, "But what does this have to do with Chacha and Zhou Liang?"

"Of course it's related." The old man glanced at Yuan Mu, then turned to look at Chacha and Zhou Liang, and said, "Because they are Xuanwu."

As soon as the old man's words came out, Yang Yang could clearly feel the atmosphere in the whole room becoming serious.
