Yokai Office

Several people in the rear surrounded them one after another.

After everyone saw the situation in front of them, their expressions changed.

"Go and see?" Duan Ming asked.

"Will there be an ambush?"

"Everyone, don't worry, I'll come to explore." Flower God opened his mouth and took the initiative to take over the job.

This place belongs to the dark place, but there is such a big apricot tree, which is really weird.

Apricot blossoms are all over the branches, and the dark fragrance is sultry.

The God of Flowers is the master of all the flowers and objects in the world, so it is perfectly appropriate for her to come forward to explore at this moment.

"Thank you, Flower God." Zong Ci thanked everyone.

"It doesn't matter." The Flower God replied in a low voice, and then clasped his hands together to channel out the spiritual power. With a wave of both palms and sleeves, the spiritual power immediately flew towards the deep pool and the apricot tree beside the pool.

The water is microwaved, and the flowers are fragrant.

All is calm and beautiful.

The Flower God held his breath, and then opened his eyes.

She suppressed the surprise in her eyes, turned around and said calmly to everyone, "There is nothing wrong with it."

There is no evil power, and there is no bloody disaster.

"The flower god...why is he surprised?" Shen Xi sensed the initial emotion of the flower god.The matter was so important that he couldn't help but ask.

When he said this, he felt that he had made a slip of the tongue and showed apology.

Flower God looked at him, and smiled lightly, "This little demon fellow Taoist, observe carefully."

"Flower God?" Fenghuang frowned and asked.

"This apricot tree is growing very vigorously, and it must have been nourished by something." The flower god explained, "Even the old apricot tree on the ground and the other apricot trees in the garden borrowed it. Spiritual energy, stained with light."

Bi Fang breathed a sigh of relief, "So it's like this, it's fine."

"Hurry over and have a look." Zong Ci finished the topic and said calmly to everyone.

When Shen Xi and Liu Huo heard this, they quickly ran over, followed by the others.

Under the almond blossom tree, five people lay side by side.Judging from their appearance and clothing, they were the five people who had disappeared during this period.

Just one by one, the complexion is extremely bad.The two who disappeared first were even more pale and frighteningly pale.

"Liu Huo, hurry up and check!" Phoenix said, pointing at Liu Huo beside him.

"Ok!"

Before he finished speaking, Shen Xi, who was at the front, went straight to Le Chaoyang, knelt down, and checked his situation.And Liu Huo, Bi Fang and others also checked the situation of other people.

"Su Lan is still breathing!" Liu Huo said.

"There are still three people here, but their breathing is very weak, and they must be treated as soon as possible."

Compared with Su Lan, the other three disappeared earlier.It is a blessing that there are still signs of survival.

"Our spiritual power is not suitable for ordinary people, Liu Huo, contact An Yin and ask him to bring the people from the bureau over immediately!"

"it is good!"

Hearing this, Shen Xi tried to call Le Chaoyang's name.

"Le, Le Chaoyang?"

The other party did not respond.

"Le Chaoyang?"

Another sound, still no response.

"Senior Bi Fang, help me check his condition, he is a mermaid!" Shen Xi said anxiously.

Seeing this, Zongci also interjected, "Uncle Fang, take a look, Le Chaoyang seems to be the second prince of the mermaid clan."

Shen Xi is very concerned about Le Chaoyang's affairs.Even the original intention of investigating this case has something to do with him.

Just in case, Zong Ci investigated Le Chaoyang's situation privately, and only then did he get some clues.

Le Chaoyang seemed to hide a lot of secrets.However, the identity of the mermaid royal family is real.

For the rest, Zong Ci has no interest in investigating matters that have nothing to do with the case.

As the director of the Monster Bureau, Fenghuang naturally pays attention to the situation of each monster clan, "Bi Fang, show him quickly."

After being urged by the three of them, Bi Fang responded, "Got it."

He put the unconscious ordinary person in his arms on the ground.Only then did he approach Shen Xi to check on Le Chaoyang's situation.

Shen Xi waited quietly for a while, and seeing that Bi Fang withdrew his spiritual power, he asked, "Senior! How is it?"

"It's okay, don't worry. He just fell into a coma like everyone else." Bi Fang replied.He lowered his head and carefully looked at Le Chaoyang's face, the complexities in his eyes flashed away.

He deliberately concealed some unnecessary information - the tendons in Le Chaoyang's body seem to be different from those of the mermaids?

"My spiritual power seems to be able to cure diseases?" Shen Xi recalled the previous experiences, and asked tentatively, "Can I use my spiritual power to go in first and help them?"

Zong Ci frowned when he heard the words.He strode up to Shen Xi's side and pulled him up.

"There are so many seniors here, and everyone knows the situation of these people." Zong Ci's tone was a little serious, "Don't worry."

"Yeah, Xiaoxi, your spiritual power is already weak..." Fenghuang said, "If the situation is really critical, we seniors are all present, and you, a junior, are still needed?"

Zongci clenched Shen Xi's arm tightly, expressing his opposition silently with force.

"...I was impatient." Shen Xi nodded and said.Immediately, he held Zong Ci's hand back and shook it slightly.

He and Zongci looked at each other, showing a little smile.

With a little flattering meaning.

Itchy.

How could Zong Ci be willing to blame him?

He just said, "Don't worry, wait for An Yin to come over."

"it is good."

***

Liu Huo had already run back to the wellhead to wait for An Yin.

The crowd only waited for more than ten minutes before they saw Liu Huo and An Yin walking quickly one after the other.

"Others are already on their way." An Yin explained briefly after seeing everyone, "I was afraid that the situation here would be critical, so I teleported here first."

"Ah."

"Brother An, it's good that you come!" Shen Xi urged.

An Yin had already learned about the situation from Liu Huokou, and immediately showed his Yaoqin, flicked the strings, and used his spiritual power to heal these unconscious people.

A few minutes later, the pale faces of the five people turned around.

Liuhuo gave them a simple resting technique respectively.

"Except for Le Chaoyang, the rest of the ordinary people must be brought back to the bureau to erase this memory." Fenghuang sighed.

These things are well forgotten by ordinary people.

The monster bureau's cars couldn't get into the ground. In order to save manpower and time, Fenghuang thought about it for a while, and then said, "Take one for each person, take them out first."

A group of people returned to the original road with the five people in a coma.

Just a few steps away from the deep pool, Zong Ci stopped.

"Zong Ci, what's wrong?"

Shen Xi was helping Liu Huo, and the two supported one person together.

Seeing Zong Ci stop, he opened his mouth and asked.

After hearing this, everyone stopped in unison and looked at Zongci.

Zongci received everyone's gaze and said calmly, "Uncle Fang, you take people out first. I'll stay and I still have something to do."

"What's wrong?" Zhong Ming asked.

Shen Xi replied instead of Zong Ci, "...the perpetrator has not been caught yet."

They were too concerned about the five unconscious people, and instead forgot the most important thing.

If the perpetrators are not arrested, I am afraid that the same thing will happen again in the long run.

"Leave it to me here." Zong Ci explained, "You all go out first."

Hearing this, Shen Xi immediately threw Le Chaoyang to Liuhuo, saying, "Zongci, I'm with you."

An Yin was worried, and just when she was about to refute, she heard Flower God say, "Everyone, please take people out first. Leave the matter here to me, Jun Shang, and fellow Taoist Shen Xi."

Bi Fang originally wanted to object, but after hearing what Flower God said, he fell silent.

With the help of the God of Flowers and Zongci's own strength, there is really no need to worry.

"Okay." Fenghuang also figured this out, "You guys pay attention to safety."

"Well, don't worry."

***

After Fenghuang and the others left, Zong Ci looked at the Flower God and asked, "Why did the Flower God stay?"

Really... just to stay and help?

"Team Zong, don't worry." The Flower God paced and walked towards the apricot blossom tree, "I just want to know what power is nourishing this flower tree and making it stable in such an environment." for a hundred years."

Zong Ci smiled and said nothing.

He turned his head, glanced at his lover, and found a trace of uneasiness in his eyes.

"Follow me." Zong Ci took his hand and talked in a low voice.

"En." The corners of Shen Xi's mouth slightly raised.

The three of them walked to the flower tree together.

The apricot blossoms are blooming very well, and the branches are bent a lot.It seems that as long as you look up, you can smell the fragrance of flowers.

The Flower God closed his eyes and concentrated, intending to explore the flower tree with his own hands.

Unexpectedly, Shen Xi's words stopped her before she started.

"Who's there?!" Shen Xi looked in one direction vigilantly.

When Zong Ci heard this, he stood in front of him immediately, and directly swung his long sword to wipe away his spiritual power.

Huashen looked at it immediately, his eyes flashed with a cold light.

The blue spiritual power hit the melting wall, dissipated without a trace, and didn't hit anything at all.

Seeing this situation, Shen Xi felt a little annoyed, he frowned, "Is there no one? Maybe I made a mistake..."

Before the lingering sound fell, a light red light suddenly appeared on the melting wall.

Gradually, from bottom to top, something is revealed.

Small feet, skirts, light pink clothes...an ancient woman.

The woman stepped on small steps and slowly walked towards the three of them.

At the same time, it is also accompanied by a strong aroma!

I saw her walking straight in front of Zongci, and stopped after a few steps.

The woman bowed to Zongci, "Master."

Hearing this, the three of them were stunned.

Shen Xi looked up at Zong Ci, who was puzzled.

"Young master, long time no see."

Another sentence.

Zong Ci still did not reply.

Flower God was wary of the person who came, and saw that she was about to come forward again, and was about to wave her spiritual power to attack, but was interrupted by Zong Ci, "Flower God, wait a minute."

Huashen was slightly taken aback, but excused Zuzong's face, and temporarily withdrew his hand.

Does this woman in front of you know Zongci?

How could Zong Ci, who has always been indifferent to others, care about her so much?

"My lord." The woman on the opposite side called out again, with a gentle and delicate tone.

Shen Xi felt a little depressed in his heart, and couldn't tell what it was like, so he just called out in a low voice, "... Zongci."

Zong Ci heard the words and looked at him.

Shen Xi suppressed the loss and puzzlement in his eyes, and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Before Zong Ci could reply, the woman on the opposite side moved again, intending to get close to Zong Ci.

"Son..."

Hearing this voice, Shen Xi was inexplicably angry, and he swung a wave of spiritual power towards the woman.

He tasted it, "Stop! Don't get close to him!"

During this time, Zong Ci taught Shen Xi many ways to use spiritual power.

In addition, Shen Xi's own spiritual power has improved.Although this move was not fatal, it also pushed the woman back several steps.

"Xixi!" Zong Ci said anxiously.

Shen Xi frowned, looking at Zong Ci.And in the next second, Zong Ci pulled him all over his arms, and a ray of reddish spiritual power brushed past Zong Ci.

Another second later, it will hit Shen Xi's body.

"Are you okay?"

Shen Xi shook his head and remained silent.

Zong Ci understood what Shen Xi was thinking and sighed.He stroked Shen Xi's back and comforted him gently, "It's not what you think, I only have you."

In a word, all Shen Xi's worries and anxieties were dispelled.

"Young master." Seeing that Zongci was protecting Shen Xi, the woman didn't dare to continue to attack for a moment, she hesitated and dared not go forward.

Zong Ci's eyes were slightly cold, and he called out a name, "Tranquility? Miss Ning?"

When the woman heard the name, her pupils flickered slightly, and she was stunned for a long time, "...It's been a long time since anyone called my name."

After confirming her identity, Zong Ci said, "I'm not the one to wait for, you're mistaken, see clearly!"

After finishing speaking, he waved a wave of spiritual power and landed on Tranquil Shu's body without any mistakes.

It is meditation.

Tranquil Shu's figure swayed, and soon she regained her footing.

In just a short while, Shen Xi noticed... There was a change in her eyes.

"Do you see who I am?" Zong Ci asked.

In a calm tone, without any trace of emotion.

"Zong, Mr. Zong?"

"It seems that I recognized it." Zong Ci was not surprised.

"Your Majesty, do you know each other?" The flower god who had been silent all this time finally asked.

Zong Ci looked at Ning Shu and nodded, "Well, I met once 600 years ago."

600 years ago?

Surprise flashed in the eyes of Shen Xi and Huashen at the same time.

"So, has it been 600 years?" Tranquility asked in a daze after hearing the words.

Zong Ci nodded and said hesitantly, "...are you still waiting for him?"

"Ah."

The more Shen Xi listened, the more confused he became, "Zongci, what's going on?"

Zong Ci considers the rhetoric, but does not speak.

Tranquility at the side said softly, "I'm waiting for my young master."

"He said that when the apricot blossoms bloom again, he will come back to me."

"But I've been waiting for a long, long time..."

The flowers bloom every year, and I don’t see you every year.
