Bu Tian Gang

Cheng Yuan couldn't help flinching when he heard this sentence, he had a kind of respect for Long Shen from the bottom of his heart, which may be derived from his experience in the Special Administration Bureau, so when he saw Long Shen appearing at first, he lost his composure .

But he quickly remembered that he was no longer the rookie who needed to be trembling in front of the Special Administration Bureau. Trembling at his feet begging for mercy.

Judgment returned to his brain, he looked at Ming Xian, furiously said: "You brought them here!"

Mingxian ignored him, and said to Tang Jinglong: "Aren't you looking for the real culprit who manipulated the soul-eating beast? He's inside. The recent incidents were indeed not done by me. If it was me, I would definitely be able to do it." Do it more without leaving a trace."

Tang Jing asked back: "Are you feeling guilty?"

Mingxian laughed at his taunt: "Just take it as a reward for your dewy love, and also, let's end the obsession in my heart."

Cheng Yuan said sharply: "Shut up! Ming Xian, how dare you go against Mr. Yin Yu's wishes!"

Long Shen didn't want to listen to his nonsense, so he stretched out his hand and grabbed him. Unexpectedly, Cheng Yuan's reaction was extremely fast, his body shrank and moved back quickly, and the man stood up suddenly, and his long and sharp nails grabbed at him.Long Shen dodged to dodge, pinched his wrist, squeezed slightly, and there was the sound of bones breaking, but Cheng Yuan smiled strangely, his chest broke open suddenly, and two withered claws poked at Long Shen The chest was as fast as lightning, even tore through Long Shen's windbreaker, and was about to be inserted into his chest and abdomen!

He had no choice but to let go, and Cheng Yuan took advantage of the gap to turn around and run away. He jumped, trying to escape from the window, but his back was grabbed suddenly, and he fell backwards. , Long Shen grabbed the long sword with his backhand and inserted it into Cheng Yuan's heart. The whole process was smooth and smooth, but in the blink of an eye, Cheng Yuan's eyes widened, full of resentment and unwillingness.

That look became more and more intense, and even the black and blue veins on his face seemed to come alive, and began to flow slowly.

Long Shen sensed that something was wrong, and Cheng Yuan grabbed the blade of the sword with both hands, and a giggling sound came from his throat, as if the bones were being pinched off one by one.

The blood flowed from his hand, but it was not the dark red of normal people, but blue-black. Cheng Yuan's eyes were even more black, and his whole body began to turn black. Within a second or two, his body turned into black air It flew away, and then recondensed into a human form behind Long Shen.

"The Special Administration Bureau is nothing more than that! Long Shen, why do you look down on me, why don't you let me join the Special Administration Bureau, today I want you to taste that life is worse than death!"

The black air suddenly turned into a strong wind and swept towards Longshen.

Ming Xian was clearly in the same camp as Cheng Yuan, but he watched coldly, as if he had no interest in intervening. Tang Jing didn't move in order to keep an eye on him.

Although the opponent didn't make a move from the beginning to the end, Tang Jing intuitively felt that this person's ability was very strong, even comparable to his own.

"I think the battlefield between us should be wider."

Ming Xian suddenly smiled, turned around and ran away, Tang Jing chased after him without thinking.

The two landed in the wild grass in the wasteland, a short distance away, staring at each other.

It's not like an enemy who is about to compete for life and death, but like a pair of friends who still have more to say, or a couple after breaking up.

Tang Jing smiled slightly at the bottom of her heart because of her rich imagination.

They've never been together before, so why talk about love?

Ming Xian's gaze was soft and harmless, like the little writer who talked a lot but was not annoying when the two first met on the plane.

But Tang Jing knew that that was only one side of Ming Xian, a mask that Ming Xian used to hide.

He is not a writer, and the author of those books is not Ming Xian at all, he just took advantage of the loophole that the author never showed up to pretend to get close to him.

As if guessing what Tang Jing was thinking, Ming Xian suddenly said: "I didn't know your identity when I was on the plane."

Tang Jing said lightly: "I have an innate sense of intimacy with you, and you have used this intimacy to make me let go of my guard against you."

Mingxian shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands: "But you didn't take it off either. Didn't you put a tracker on me again and send someone to check me again? Besides, you should know why you feel so close to me."

Tang Jing said: "Because you are the same as me."

Ming Xian smiled, frankly, without any intention of hiding: "My body is a piano."

The night was dark and moonless, and the street lamps in the distance shone on Ming Xian's side face, giving off a kind of soft charm.

Even if the enemy and the enemy are clearly distinguished and irreversible, Tang Jing still sees the rippling waves and the stars and the moon in those eyes.

Tang Jing also guessed the other party's true form when he suspected that the other party was made of artifacts. He thought that such a beautiful bright string must be an elegant and lovely thing.

It takes at least a thousand years of elegance to breed such a romantic style.

Tang Jing said: "I am a mirror."

Ming Xian quickly guessed his origin: "A mirror from the Tang Dynasty?"

Tang Jing nodded: "Qianqiu Panlong Mirror."

Going back thousands of years, he used to be a mirror in the Tang Palace, cast by a famous craftsman, and was given by Xuanzong to his younger sister, Princess Yuzhen. By pure chance and coincidence, I also encountered the flowing clouds of mountains and rivers, the essence of the sun and the moon, after being honed by frost and wind, it finally turned into a human body.

Mingxian smiled and said: "No wonder I felt kind to you when I saw you. In terms of age, you and I are not far behind. Unfortunately, I don't have such good luck as you."

Tang Jing: "Are you a Chinese spirit?"

Ming Xian shook his head: "I don't know if I was built by the people of Tang Dynasty or the people of the East. I have no roots, no bottom, no name and no surname. I only know that when my original body was first formed, there were countless cross inscriptions under the qin. The qin is in the sound. Purify evil minds. Although there is righteousness, the feeling is also deep. Preserve elegance but integrity, extravagance is forbidden. Smooth and righteous, happy but not lewd."

Tang Jing was startled, and blurted out: "Jinyinping Wenqin?!"

Jinyinping Bunqin, a Japanese national treasure, is now in the collection of Shosoin.

The reason why it is called Jinyinping Wenqin is because of the gold and silver plain decorations on the body of the Qinqin, so it is named after its characteristics, not after the sound or the maker of the Qinqin like the Chinese Guqin.

The name Mingxian was also given to himself after he first became conscious.

"Then from Zhengcangyuan...?" Tang Jing couldn't help asking.

Ming Xian spit out two words softly: "Imitation."

Tang Jing understood.

Jinyin Pingwenqin was made in the Heian period of Japan, that is, the period of Tang Xianzong in China. No wonder Mingxian said that the two were of the same age.

"Japan's land is limited, and its aura is thin. Even with the power of the whole country, there are very few people who can become sages. Originally, I had just opened my mind, but it would take at least a few decades before I wanted to cultivate a human form. But at that time, Otowa Jiu Yan got a Chinese practitioner, injected his soul into my body, and forcibly helped me form in advance."

Mingxian's tone was leisurely, as if he was talking about other people's affairs.

Tang Jing's heart tightened, and he had already guessed something.

He would rather his guess was wrong.

However, the other party still slowly said the answer he didn't want to hear: "That person is called Dong Jilan."

Dong Jilan and Tang Jing certainly knew each other.

A few years ago, he was still a carefree and carefree wanderer who didn't want to meddle in the world's business. At that time, he still laughed at Longshen and Zong Ling and others as cocoons. How aggrieved to obey human rules and be governed by human beings in a cage.

Later, he encountered a big trouble by accident, encountered a very difficult enemy, almost lost his life, and even lost his original shape. Fortunately, a man named Dong Jilan passed by and helped him. Tang Jing was grateful, He didn't want to owe favors, so he offered to repay. Dong Jilan said that he was about to leave the Special Administration Bureau and was ordered to carry out a secret mission. , no matter whether he comes back or not, Tang Jing can leave on his own.

Five years after five years, year after year, Dong Jilan never came back, but Tang Jing has gotten used to the life of the Special Administration Bureau, and gradually got used to living under the rules, but Dong Jilan has never been heard from again. No, many people who knew Dong Jilan back then felt that this bold and free-spirited man might have died in a foreign country. Even the last time Long Shen and Song Zhicun wanted to use Fujikawa Aoi to exchange hostages with Japan, they failed to exchange him. Change it back.

But now, Mingxian said, there is a ray of Dong Jilan's soul in his body.

Tang Jing was silent for a while, as if mourning the friend who could not return to his homeland in the end.

"So Dong Jilan is completely dead?"

"Yes. He is really a man. I watched Yin Yu pour hot molten iron on him and torture him in every way, just to arouse his strength to the extreme, and then extract his soul, but he was always Never begged for forgiveness."

"I have Japanese mountains and waters, flowers and birds in my mind, and—"

He pointed to his heart, "The soul of a Chinese."

Ming Xian smiled slightly, but a line of pain and helplessness was drawn from the corner of his mouth.

"I envy you, Tang Jing, you have purity and freedom that I don't have. If possible, I don't want to be your enemy."

Tang Jing couldn't help but take a step forward.

Mingxian took a step back.

"You can change everything." Tang Jing looked at him.

"I can't change it." Ming Xian said lightly, "From the moment I took shape, everything was doomed and irreversible."

Tang Jing said: "I'll help you. If I can't do it, Long Shen can. If Long Shen can't do it, there are still many capable people in the Special Administrative Bureau, and even the whole of China."

"Too late."

Ming Xian turned his head away, with sadness in his eyes.

"When I was about to take shape, in order to control me, Otowa Hatohiko integrated his blood into my body, refined me again, and took out part of it to stay with him. It is impossible for me to escape his control."

That touch of sadness passed so fast that Tang Jing thought it was just her own illusion.

"I am close to you, but remind you everywhere, and provide you with clues, which is my return to Dong Jilan. Without him, I would not be who I am today. I know that he never forgets his motherland and has a deep love for the people on this land. I can't save him back then, but now I can only help you here. Yin Yu has also tampered with Cheng Yuan, but I think Director Long should have a way to deal with him."

After Mingxian finished speaking slowly, he took off his suit jacket, rolled up his sleeves one by one, and exposed his slender and fair forearms.

He stared at Tang Jing, and said softly and cruelly: "Now, it's time for us to fight to the death."

……

Long Shen soon discovered that there was something strange about Cheng Yuan.

It has not been two years since Cheng Yuan was elected to the Special Administration Bureau. Even if he has made rapid progress during this period, he will never be so strong that he can even compete with Long Shen—even if Long Shen is still there. Didn't try my best.

His body has merged with the demonic energy, and he can change between the virtual and the real as he likes. Whenever Long Shen's sword is about to fall on him, he will turn into demonic energy and shatter into pieces. Regroup behind him, take advantage of his unpreparedness, and sneak attack the opponent.

With Cheng Yuan as the center of the circle, the surrounding airflow is getting bigger and bigger, and it is surging, just like the gust of wind before the tide, coming with a turbulent force, trying to completely destroy everything in the world. Okay, from time to time, under Cheng Yuan's command, he smashed at Long Shen.

Long Shen didn't turn his head back, and with a backhand sword, the old refrigerator that was thrown at his back was broken in two instantly, and fell on both sides with a bang, making a lot of noise. If it wasn't for the desolation around him, someone must have come to the door by now .

"Unexpectedly, I am no longer the rookie who can be flattened and rounded by you!"

Cheng Yuan sneered at Long Shen, black energy overflowed his body, and the devil energy suddenly increased several times, almost reaching the roof, and then rolled towards Long Shen violently, trying to swallow him up.

As far as the eye can see, all the light bulbs shattered with a bang, and the whole room was instantly surrounded by black air, as if the sky was blocked out, and no light could be seen anymore.

In the darkness, the gust of wind howled, engulfing the demonic energy and sweeping towards Longshen. In all directions, even the air could not help but groan and howl. All the dead things trembled on the ground, unable to resist the powerful and evil demonic attack.

But around Longshen, the faint white light formed a layer of stellar energy, which kept all the filth and darkness outside, and no matter what Cheng Yuan did, it was difficult to break through.

His bright red eyes narrowed, and his five fingers, which were as thin as withered claws, opened and closed, releasing a few more souls.

These are all objects that he once took his life to refine his soul.There is a boy with a handsome face, a young girl with a sad expression, an ignorant child, a middle-aged woman with an angry face, and a weasel whose fur color can be vaguely seen.

They were manipulated by Cheng Yuan, and rushed towards Longshen from all directions. They had already been refined and fused into part of the demonic energy. The current remnant souls are just the residue after being polluted by the demonic energy, but they still carry the resentment of their unjust death .

The fierce and vicious demonic energy of resentment surrounds Long Shen, gnawing at his stellar energy bit by bit. When the stellar energy is completely eroded, these resentful souls and demonic energy will rush up without hesitation and bite off his flesh , eating his body.

Long Shen stood still.

It wasn't that he didn't want to move, but that his whole body was tightly oppressed by the devil's energy, and he couldn't even take a step forward.

But under such an overwhelming offensive, the devilish energy could not go any further.

Both sides maintain a delicate and dangerous balance.

Long Shen's eyes fell on the gray weasel.

"You are in Lucheng, colluding with Kiyoshi Yamamoto to kill?"

Cheng Yuan: "I'm Mr. Yinyu's man, how could I cooperate with him! That idiot claims to have Bo Beiye's backing, so he is unscrupulous and treats Lucheng as his own territory, but in the end it hurts me and almost exposes him! Little does he know His master is nothing more than an unformed demonic energy, how can he compare to Mr. Otowa!"

Long Shen said: "You have good qualifications. Even if you fail the interview this year, you will still have a chance next year. Even if you don't enter the Special Administration Bureau, it doesn't mean you want to cooperate with monsters."

Cheng Yuan said angrily: "You were born to be superior, so of course you would say such things. Do you know how difficult it is for me to live! I don't have a teacher with a strong background or a master with a deep network. Even if I enter the Special Administration Bureau, How many years will it take to sit in your position? It will never be possible! But Li Ying, Liu Qingbo, and your apprentice, how long did it take them? I heard that the winter solstice has already become the Lucheng office The person in charge? It’s no wonder, leaning against a big tree to enjoy the shade, and me, obviously stronger than Dongzhi, because I don’t have a good master, I can’t even enter the gate of the Special Administration Bureau!”

Amidst the demonic energy, Long Shen's face was pale.

"You were dethroned, it has nothing to do with whether you have a good teacher or not. It is because you, as a psychic, wander between yin and yang, and those with uncertain temperament are more likely to be influenced and go astray. We originally planned not to do this this time." Let you pass the interview, observe you for a year, if you are good enough and willing to take the exam again, you will be admitted next year, and you will be directly in charge of an office."

But obviously, Cheng Yuan did not pass the test. Because of his failure, he felt resentful towards the Special Administration Bureau, and turned to join the camp of monsters.

Greed, hatred, ignorance, slow suspicion, and the five poisonous minds of Buddhism are inherent in human nature. They are deeply hidden in the flesh and blood and are difficult to eradicate. However, some people can restrain and resolve them, while others allow them to spread, and eventually they are like Cheng Yuan.

Cheng Yuan's expression fluctuated, and the blue-black devilish energy polluted his entire face into a horrific, but when he heard Long Shen's words, his face twitched slightly, the devilish energy subsided for a while, and his normal complexion gradually surfaced. Regret and shock flashed across his face, but soon, the devilish energy that quickly extended from his neck to his cheeks once again occupied the entire face, and the devilish energy on his body was stronger than ever before.

"Why do you observe me! Why don't you observe Dongzhi and Li Ying! Why do you treat me differently? I am not as good as them! After all, isn't it because you are partial!"

Under his fury, the devilish energy rushed over, forming a high pressure on Long Shen, tightly oppressing the stellar energy around him, as long as the stellar energy showed weakness a little bit, the devilish energy would immediately take advantage of the gap and completely crush him. His body shattered!

Long Shen didn't say any more.

In fact, he didn't even want to say the above words, but he always adhered to the beginning and the end. Since he was the one who refused to let Cheng Yuan pass the interview, he should give the other party an answer today.

He has been in the world for thousands of years, and he has seen human nature for thousands of years.

Ordinary people roll around in the world, sticking to life for daily necessities, fame and fortune, and human nature always presents completely different polarizations in darkness and light.

Just like in times of crisis, there are heroes who stand up and sacrifice themselves for others, and there are villains who are greedy for life and fear death, and stab a knife in the back. They are also human beings. After death, their bodies are reduced to ashes, and only their souls remain in the world. Some people's souls, Just like the brilliance of the stars, although they appear and disappear from time to time, they never go out, illuminating the long night with faint light.

Most human nature in the secular world is like the moment before sunrise, time is frozen in darkness, and many people, like Cheng Yuan, think that the sky is dark and the earth is also dark.But there are also some people, even if the number is small, they are still willing to shine by themselves, become the enlightenment that leads the sunrise, bravely step forward so that others can see the magnificent mountains and rivers, and dye the world with a touch of warm light.

Long Shen was once disappointed by the indifference of human nature, because he had seen too many betrayals and killings.

But he has also seen those souls who are not afraid of hardships and dangers, moving forward in the wind and snow.Everything in the world is born as a human, not to experience misery and pain, but to listen to the wind and rain, sing and write poems, feel joy and joy, the joy of the world, and experience those things that only human beings can possess and do for them with human wisdom. Pursue a lifelong relationship.

But now, there is another person called him master who is willing to work hard for him and become a better person. Even if Long Shen feels that he cannot give him what he wants, the other party has never given up on himself because of this.

The magic pressure increased little by little, but the qi in Long Shen's body was compressed little by little, and soon there was only a thin layer left, which could be crushed at any time. Even Long Shen didn't look as strong and invincible as before.

Cheng Yuan's fear of him gradually disappeared, replaced by contempt and ridicule.

"Now I don't need you to look at me differently! As long as Mr. Yinyu is here, I will have endless power, and I can turn the world around and control the world! Look at you, Long Shen, I can't forget the way you looked at me at that time, just It's like looking at an ant, which can crush me to death at any time, but now? You still have to be at my mercy!"

Along with Cheng Yuan's crazy words, the pressure on Long Shen became heavier and heavier, and Long Shen could almost hear the arrogant and crazy screams of the devil energy. As long as he had a little opening, the devil energy would get in immediately... …

And behind Cheng Yuan, a shadow surging with devilish energy was looming, through the thick and dark fog, Long Shen met those eyes.

He saw an old man sitting in a small room surrounded by endless void.

After the void, after the Milky Way, there is a boundless sea of ​​blood.

As far as the eye can see, thick blood spreads, the disgusting rust smell lingers, killing, hatred, betrayal everywhere, human beings use the most cruel and vicious means to kill each other, heads and limbs sink and float in the sea of ​​blood, The monster hides in the edge of darkness with a ferocious smile.

A red full moon rose slowly at the end of the darkness, the abyss was connected to the sea of ​​blood, and the monster opened its mouth wide, devouring the limbs in the sea of ​​blood one by one.

The howls and cries were endless, and the voice was full of pain to the extreme, desperate, sharp and tragic, piercing through the void, through the chaotic time, and pierced straight into the heart.

Long Shen!

The old man opened his mouth slightly, his voice was like a mosquito, but like a heavy hammer, it hit Long Shen's eardrum heavily.

Dragon game!

It may be from Song Zhicun, or it may be from the mouth of other people in the Special Administration Bureau, overlapping, familiar and unfamiliar.

boss!

That was He Yu's voice.

And see Chaosheng, Zhong Yuyi.

Long Shen had led them countless times through life and death, turning danger into safety, but now they are all sinking into the sea of ​​blood, unable to save themselves, they can only look at him from afar, full of pain and despair.

Master!

There was another person whose face was blurred and could not be seen clearly, but he would never forget that voice.

Only that voice, passing through layers of demon barriers, mountains of corpses and seas of blood, came from the crimson moon covering the sky and the wreckage everywhere, so that he would never mistakenly recognize it, but it also seemed to be crushed by Mount Tai, directly pressing on his heart and crushing it. It took away his last layer of Gang Qi.

Long Shen was slightly shocked, and the corners of his mouth were bright red.
