Jianai Institute, interrogation room.

"Ao Hu, a fourth-grade melee auxiliary ink armor, has been in Ming Gui Realm for more than 20 years. He chose to leave Ming Gui Realm and enter the present world after the split of the Five Institutes. He has signed armor master contracts with three Mo Xu successively. He is currently affiliated with the mobile guard of the Central Institute Elders Council."

"On June 15, the 12th year of Jiaqi, a tragedy broke out at the Dilong Station on Datong Street. A complete investigation team was slaughtered. We found your armor fragments at the scene. What do you want to say about this?"

Ao Hu was tied to a torture chair, and the electric light intertwined into a net enveloped his armor body. The arcs as thin as cow hair continued to penetrate into Ao Hu's body from the gaps in the armor.

This torture equipment developed by the Feigong Institute is specifically used to target ink armor. As long as Ao Hu makes any abnormal movement, the sudden current can instantly destroy his ink armor core.

"What's the difference between me saying it and not saying it?" Ao Hu said calmly.

"It seems that you know our Jianai Institute very well."

The black-robed man who claimed to be Li Su, the chief officer of the Eighth Serious Case Room of Jianai Institute, smiled contemptuously and took a chair to sit opposite Ao Hu.

"Whether you say it or not, it really doesn't make any sense. When you publicly resisted the investigation at the garrison, your fate was doomed. You will be sent to the funeral home in a while, and they will dismember and reassemble your armored body as a carrier for the advent of the new Ming ghost. It can be regarded as a waste utilization."

Li Su leaned forward slightly, staring at the dark mechanical eyes in front of him, hoping to see a trace of fear and terror in them.

But the result made him extremely disappointed. Ao Hu's eyes were always calm as usual, without any emotional ups and downs.

"Not afraid of death, right? Very good."

Li Su's face suddenly darkened, and he said coldly: "I have seen many Ming ghosts like you. I hope you can be as tough as you are now!"

"The black armor standing next to you just now is called Qing Si, right? If I remember correctly, he should have been in the world for no more than five years? According to your calculations of Ming ghosts, he is still a child, right?"

Li Su leaned back and said jokingly: "Do you think Qing Si can be as fearless of life and death as his brother Hu?"

"He has nothing to do with the matter of Datong Street Dilong Station."

Ao Hu's tone finally carried a little anger.

"Whether it is related or not is up to me, not you." Li Su showed a satisfied smile on his face.

He shook his head slightly, stretched out a finger in front of Ao Hu, and said in a low voice: "In the middle courtyard, who can live and who should die has always been the decision of our Jianai. If you still want to pretend to be a tough guy in front of me, it's not impossible, but I will use their blood to soften your bones so that you can never be tough again. I mean this." The noisy electric light crackled in the air, and Ao Hu's straight body tightened the electric net covering his body, and a metallic stench from the burning armor spread in the room. "I appeared at the Datong Street Dilong Station" "Stop!" Li Su interrupted Ao Hu directly: "It seems that you have forgotten what I said just now. Whether you admit it or not, it doesn't matter now." "Does that mean I must die?" "We are all sensible people, why continue to pretend to be stupid?" Li Su, who was not interested in beating around the bush, put his face close to Ao Hu and looked at him through a layer of flashing electric light. "I just want to kill you, what can you do?"

Ao Hu stared at Li Su who was pretending in front of him, and suddenly laughed: "A biting dog doesn't bark, and these harsh words won't make you save face from me. I advise you to finish the things assigned to you by the higher-ups first, lest you lose your life before I die."

The interrogation room was very cold, Li Su's cheeks kept twitching, and fierceness accumulated in his facial features.

"Ao Hu, if you still want to live now, there is only one way for you to go now."

Li Su shouted angrily: "Tell me all your accomplices!"

"What accomplices?" Ao Hu said with a smile.

"Don't talk nonsense, of course they are traitors who intend to rebel like you!"

"We are not traitors."

Ao Hu's voice suddenly became cold: "You are not the only craftsmen in Mo Xu, we are also the masters of the middle courtyard!"

"You?"

Li Su couldn't help but sneer when he heard this ridiculous remark: "You are just a group of tools that are judged by their "quality", and you still want to learn to be human? Who do you think you are?"

The moment the voice fell, the lights in the interrogation room suddenly went out without warning, and the blue lightning arc also dissipated.

"What's going on?"

Just when Li Su was stunned, he was surprised to see a pair of bloody eyes slowly lit up in the darkness.

"Ming Gui is not a tool, and we don't need to learn to be human. We are human beings, using steel instead of flesh and blood, and armor to entrust the soul. We are real people. As for who I am..."

Li Su's pupils suddenly shrank like needles, and his body subconsciously leaned back, but he still couldn't avoid the evil wind blowing in his face.

"Minggui Warriors, the four heroes, Ao Hu!"

Bang!

Li Su's body hit the wall of the interrogation room like a flying cannonball. The dent on his face was horrifying, and the body embedded in the wall was in a twisted posture.

Sizzle

The heavy door of the interrogation room was torn open by Ao Hu, and the dark corridor was filled with the sound of gunfire.

"Brother Hu, all the defense measures in the Jianai Institute have been paralyzed, and the global shielding of Shanhefang has also been activated."

A Mo Jia ran over and handed a heavy sword to Ao Hu while reporting the latest information.

"Notify brothers, hurry up and get things done!"

Aohu reached out to grab the knife and walked straight to the internal prison area located underneath the Jian'ai Center.

Mo Xu, who was suddenly attacked by Kenaisho, was unable to resist this group of wolf-like and tiger-like melee armors. His screams of death were almost inaudible amidst the clang of the friction and collision of armor plates.

In just a few seconds, all the Mo Xu stationed in the prison area were slaughtered.

All the closed cell doors were blown open, and the prisoners imprisoned in them stared blankly at the swaying scarlet eyes, as if they didn't realize what happened for a while.

There are a total of sixty-five cells in the entire Jian'ai Institute. Most of the prisoners are Mo Xu who are dissatisfied with the conduct of the Zhongyuan. Only a small number are Mo Jia who have not yet been dismembered in the funeral.

From the day they entered the Jianai Sanctuary, these people or A never thought that they could leave alive.

At this moment, the prison door symbolizing freedom was finally opened, and they rushed out after recovering.

"Everyone, the time has come for blood debt to be paid with blood!"

Ao Hu was in the center of the prison area and said loudly: "Those who want to follow us to take revenge will be marked with bare arms. Those who have lost their courage will ask for their own survival!"

After saying these words, Aohu didn't stop for a moment, turned around and walked out. As he stepped forward, he clenched his fist with his left hand and raised his arm. The paint on the armor fell off, and a flash of red appeared!

Buzz.

An invisible scream spread, and the four ink armors that were charging forward in a curve were like insects falling into amber. The rapid movements stopped suddenly, and the armor bodies that suddenly stopped fell forward under the action of inertia. roll.

Seeing that the torrent of roaring bombs was about to wash them into a pile of broken wreckage, at the critical moment, the ink armor with a heavy shield on his shoulder quickly approached, withstood the rain of bullets, and at the same time threw the out-of-control companions on the ground back.

Among this group of defensive ink armors who came to rescue, there was the claw-marked ink armor that stood next to Aohu not long ago - the golden beast.

"Damn the owner's contract, these bastards"

The golden beast kneeling on one knee cursed angrily. The previous invisible ripple was the shock wave generated by the torn Master Jia contract. It ignored Mo Jia's body and directly acted on Ming Gui's consciousness.

The cursed golden beast still had lingering fear in his heart, and he couldn't help but secretly rejoice that his armor master had been controlled by the people of the Akuki Samurai Order in advance, otherwise he would probably be paralyzed on the ground, waiting to die.

Boom!

A muffled sound shattered the distracting thoughts in the golden beast's mind. His arm holding the shield suddenly shook, and his knees pressing on the metal ground were pushed backwards by the impact, causing a harsh and sharp sound.

He could no longer tell how many shells he had blocked. The heavy shield he held on his hand had obvious cracks, and the light of gun flames that continued to explode in the distance could even be faintly revealed.

I can't stand it anymore

Just when the golden beast gritted its teeth and persisted, an invisible throbbing originating from Minggui's consciousness surged in his heart.

However, this time the throbbing did not come from the enemy formation, but surged from behind the golden beast and swept forward.

Yellow beam type ink nails? Our people? !

The golden beast suddenly turned around and saw a carefree and unrestrained smiling face, as well as a woman with long fiery red hair standing behind him.

"Looking at the entire Yin and Yang order, I'm afraid I'm the only one who can do this kind of thing. This road is getting narrower and narrower."

Wherever the impact passed, the gunfire suddenly stopped.

The people guarding the Presbyterian Guard camp and A lowered their heads in unison, as if they had fallen asleep.

"Fight with me!"

Shen Li wore a cyan ink armor and held hand cannons in his left and right hands, charging at the front like a roaring land dragon.

"Come on!"

Although I don’t know where these two people came from, it’s enough as long as the ink armor they wear has a red left arm.

The right leg of the kneeling golden beast suddenly exerted force, and the body ejected into the air. He turned out a cannon muzzle with his left hand and fired mercilessly at the awakened enemy in the distance.

"Blast these bastards to death!"

The melee ink-armored group who had been suppressed previously and could not raise their heads all had swords in their hands. The roars coming from within the armor gathered into a deafening wave of rage. Using the green figure in front of them as an arrow, they slammed into the Presbyterian Guards. position.

In the Central Branch, where most of the defense methods and creations are paralyzed, blades and guns are the decisive means of victory at this moment!

boom!

The air wave of the explosion directly knocked the golden beast to the ground, and the heavily scarred shield and the arm behind it were burned and melted into fiery red molten iron all over the ground.

Bullets hit his helmet and back armor one after another. The seriously injured golden beast could only try to move his body to protect his core.

"Traitor, die!"

An angry shout and a piercing whistle fell from the top of the head. The golden beast raised its head in shock, and the cold light of death was already pressed into its eyes.

Zheng!

A series of sparks exploded in front of his eyes, and the blade that was slashing towards the golden beast's head was tightly grasped by a hand.

"Um?"

Mo Xu, who was holding the knife, was startled. Just as he was about to draw the knife and retreat, a dagger penetrated his face like lightning, piercing his mask.

"Can we continue?"

"It's still okay."

"Then don't stop. At least not tonight."

Qingsi Qingsi twisted her wrist, pulled out the dagger from the kneeling corpse, and continued to charge forward without stopping.

The golden beast looked at the back of Qingsi with complicated eyes. This boy was no longer the boy he knew.

Or maybe he should call him Lord Longzong now.

The rainstorm covered Lion Mountain, and the beast head sat in Guanyun Temple.

"Master Liu, I have even taken out my savings to cooperate with your plan this time. Is that good enough?"

Guo Qiu was no longer in the embarrassed look at Lion Mountain in the past. He was now wearing a simple green robe, sitting high under the statue of the ancestor, and asked leisurely.

"Master Guo helped me this time, and Liu will remember it in his heart."

Liu Tu bowed his hands and thanked him, and put his attitude very low.

"There is no need to remember it. Now the situation has changed suddenly. Today we sit and talk, and tomorrow we may draw our swords against each other."

Guo Qiu smiled and said, "So I think it's better for us to settle everything now, and talk about the future later. What do you think, Master Liu?"

The Taoist's shrewd and mercenary look, to put it nicely, is called being cautious, and to put it bluntly, it is short-sighted.

Liu Tu smiled indifferently, and then said: "Master Guo is really a quick-witted person. In this case, I will let the Liu family and the people of the Central Court withdraw from Huizhou Prefecture and give this base to Guanyun Temple."

"Young Master Liu may have misunderstood. Our Taoist order is different from the Buddhist order. We have always preferred to have fewer disciples than to have too many. Why do we need so many bases?"

"What does Master Guo mean? The land of a prefecture is the condition we have agreed on before."

Liu Tu couldn't help but frown when he heard this, and secretly cursed the other party for being greedy and playing dirty tricks with him at this time.

Guo Qiu picked up the teacup at hand, scraped the foam on the tea soup with the bowl cover, pretended to take a sip, and then said calmly: "It's not that I want to be a villain in vain, but the pressure from above is too great, and I dare not disobey."

Liu Tu sneered in his heart, knowing clearly that this was just Guo Qiu's excuse.

If the Maoshan Sect really knew that he had been involved in the internal turmoil in the Central Courtyard, he would not have the mood to raise the price with him here.

"But it was indeed my fault in this matter. How about this, Master Liu, you borrowed my Guanyun Temple to take shelter from the storm, and I will not care about it anymore. Let's exchange one by one and we will be even, how about it?"

Liu Tu's eyes flashed with a strange light, and asked: "What does Taoist Master mean by this?"

"When the storm is strong like tonight, Master Liu did not sit in the Liu family and watch you finish singing and I go on stage downstairs, but stayed in my Guanyun Temple. It really makes no sense."

Guo Qiu stared at the teacup in his hand and smiled slowly: "At first, I was puzzled. After a lot of thinking, I finally saw a little trick."

"What trick?" Liu Tu asked back.

Guo Qiu smiled but said nothing, only sighing: "The family is as deep as the sea, and the heart is as deep as the belly. I have heard this sentence many times in the past, but today I finally understand it all. In comparison, my small Guanyun Temple is safer."

"Hahaha."

Liu Tu suddenly laughed out loud and said admiringly: "The Taoist priest hit the nail on the head, I admire you."

Guo Qiu blinked: "Although I don't often walk in the world, I can also understand the human nature."

"What an experienced person. Then do as the Taoist priest said, let's settle the matter and discuss it again."

Liu Tu smiled and said : "I wonder what the immortals of Mount Mao want?"

"Very simple."

Guo Qiu's eyes sparkled, and he spoke word by word: "Huangliang authority."

Liu Tu's smile faded, and after lowering his eyes and pondering for a moment, he smiled bitterly and said: "Master Guo, you have given me a huge problem."

"How can this be a problem? This thing is of no great use to Confucianism. At best, it is used to build Huangliang dreams, enter them to study and practice, and commemorate the saints. On the contrary, every time I think of these powers being wasted, I often feel deeply distressed."

" Some things can be used, but they cannot be absent. You should understand this principle, Taoist priest. "

"Things are different now."

Guo Qiu said seriously: "In the past, we all had different positions, and it was natural for us to hinder each other. At that time, if I mentioned the word "authority" in front of you, Master Liu, it would be self-humiliating. But the situation is different now. We may unite at any time and face the enemy side by side. At this time, you give me authority and I give you convenience. Isn't it a good thing for everyone to get what they need?"

"This sounds familiar."

Liu Tu smiled He laughed and said, "I remember you just said that our two families would have a fight?"

"Really? How come I don't remember saying such a thing?"

Guo Qiu laughed and said, "But then again, it's often just a matter of a thought whether you are an enemy or a friend. Young Master Liu is the one who will take over the Liu family, so he shouldn't be stingy with this little bit of authority, right?"

"The authority of the Confucian family must be held by the head of the family. This is the rule set by the New Donglin Party, and no one can cross it."

Liu Tu shook his head helplessly and said, "I really have no power."

"Is there really no way?"

"No way."

Guo Qiu sighed, and the bowl lid of his left hand clicked on the teacup with a crisp sound: "In this case, Pindao won't force others to do anything. Of course, it is windy and rainy outside now, Pindao is not a heartless person, and of course he will not rush Master Liu, please leave. It’s just that the eaves of my Guanyun Temple are narrow and cannot block any big storms. I can only ensure your safety, Master Liu, by bringing back the yellow scarf warriors sent to the central courtyard.”

Liu Tu frowned and asked, "Daozhang Guo, is there really no room for negotiation?"

"Didn't we already discuss it?" Guo Qiu looked surprised.

Liu Tu said in a deep voice: "Rules are dead, but people are alive."

"You are worthy of being a talented scholar and the legitimate son of a wealthy family. I know that Master Liu, you are not that pedantic person!"

"That's not as good as your Taoist teachings, Taoist Master."

Liu Tu asked: "I wonder how much authority you want, Master Taoist?"

Guo Qiu grinned: "Not much. It is enough to help Pindao improve the ranking of the Earth Immortals in Bai Yujing by ten places. This authority should not be a big problem for you, Master Liu."

boom!

Before Guo Qiu finished speaking, there was a loud roar outside the main hall.

Clang.

Guo Qiu shook his hand, and the tea cup fell from his hand, and the hot tea poured all over his crotch.

"Liu Tu, how did you get into trouble with this disaster?!"

Guo Qiu exclaimed, but saw that Liu Tu ignored him at all, stood up and looked outside the hall, muttering to himself.

"You actually came to me? Is this how you chose to break the situation?"
