The Magic Sea is a special prison, located directly below the ruins of the Old Summer Palace, and it was built by combining earth veins and underground rivers.

Since its completion, there has been a water prison dedicated to detaining the turbid demon. The prison is divided into seven floors, shrinking downward in the shape of an inverted pyramid. It's no different if a wandering soul goes to hell.

When Chang Jing was seven years old, she went to the Magic Sea once, and was deeply impressed by the maze-like topographical map there.

At that time, his understanding was limited, and his father once explained it this way: that ghostly place is a big cockroach house, and the little cockroaches can't get out after crawling in.

Huanhai's security level is very high, even with Chang Jing's identity, it is not so easy to get in.

Chang Jing: "Is it the Magic Sea and not the Old Summer Palace? Are you sure?"

According to Chang Jing's previous understanding, the goblin possessed by Xu Liang can feel the approximate location of the amulet, but the magic sea is just under the Old Summer Palace, even if the navigation is turned on, it can only be fixed at the same location. How can this goblin distinguish it so clearly? ?

Xu Liang: "Sure, call out your unicorn."

Xu Liang probably guessed Chang Jing's question, but on the one hand, he was too lazy to explain, and on the other hand, he really couldn't explain it clearly.

Before that, he really could only feel the general orientation of the amulet. In the past two days, that thing has been parked somewhere in Haidian District, but even so, he also knows that as long as he passes by himself, he can follow the clues to find out It found it, so I was not in a hurry at all, thinking about earning an extra day by playing for one more day.

But just now, a strong uneasiness suddenly surged in his heart, like a daydream, falling into a state between reality and illusion without warning.

The surroundings became very dark, low roars echoed in the confined space, the heavy door was smashed to pieces, and hundreds of goblins let out triumphant roars.

The monster energy of different attributes collided together, just like countless butterflies folded their wings and dropped dense scale powder, refracting dazzling colorful light.

After a while, the sound of footsteps moved upwards, and the surroundings became quiet, but Xu Liang found that the evil spirit became more intense.

He stepped on a hexagonal bronze box, and the box was bound by a chain as thick as an arm. The moss-like copper rust and the blood-scab-like rust were intertwined, rubbing off a layer on the ground.

There was a soft "click", and a drop of water fell on the bronze box, actually directly penetrating through the thick top cover.

In the next second, a strong vibration erupted from the entire box, pulling the chain and making a sharp, itchy sound.

At that time, Xu Liang subconsciously closed his eyes. At the same moment, he seemed to enter the box with the water droplets. In the bright purple light, he saw a huge heart.

The blood vessels leading to the heart are as thick as an arm, and the light blue surface is covered with incomprehensible spells.

The water drop continued to fall, and the moment it touched his heart, Xu Liang felt his mind go blank, and when he opened his eyes again, those hallucinations were gone.

But he clearly remembered that at the last moment, he heard the sound of his heart beating—deep and powerful, with a hollow echo, like someone wielding a war hammer across the sky and beating a bronze drum made of the entire sky.

The strange hallucination ends here, but Xu Liang can feel that the amulet has become very unstable, probably because it has been borrowed for too long, this feeling of instability makes him feel anxious, urging him to leave immediately.

However, when sitting on the green unicorn, Xu Liang somewhat regretted it, and even thought shamelessly that he simply pretended that he had never promised the phoenix, and let it do whatever he liked with the amulets, as long as he lived happily. Just finish the remaining few days. Anyway, at the end, when he closed his eyes and kicked his legs, no matter how capable Fenghuang and the kitten were, they couldn't go to the ghost guards to arrest him and question him.

But after thinking about it, Xu Liang put Chang Jing's shoulders on his shoulders and followed him to the Old Summer Palace.

It stands to reason that at this time, there should be no one around the Old Summer Palace. After all, the garden is big and desolate, and no one would come here in the middle of the night looking for surprises, but when Xu Liang and the others approached, they heard noisy voices.

A few young men in black suits were guarding the intersection.

They wore blue epaulettes on their shoulders, just like those on Chang Jing's overalls. Needless to say, they must be staff members of the Subduing Demon Management Office.

When he saw them, Xu Liang's expression was a bit serious. The presence of people from the Subduing Demon Management Office could almost prove that the picture he saw was not a hallucination.

If Xu Liang's guess is correct, then something serious must have happened to Huanhai.

Most likely, this is why the amulet was stolen.

Chang Jing also frowned, the scene in front of him confirmed his conjecture, since the destination is in the Illusory Sea, things must be more complicated than expected.

If the goblin who snatched the amulet breaks into the imaginary sea and makes trouble, it must be the most serious incident in the imaginary sea so far. Let alone how much impact this incident will have, only that the security outside the door is now strict, and he doesn't know what to use Way to get in.

If the normal procedure is followed, Chang Jing needs to go back to the Subduing Demon Management Office to apply for a report, and then submit the materials layer by layer. After obtaining permission, she can enter the Magic Sea for investigation. If she really has to wait until then, the amulet will even give birth to a child.

Qing Qilin stopped in a hidden corner, and Chang Jing looked at those colleagues, wondering if he could find an excuse to deceive them, and rushed directly into the fantasy sea.

At this time Xu Liang said: "Let's go."

Chang Jing didn't understand, "Go, where are you going? This is the Magic Sea."

Xu Liang pressed Chang Jing's shoulder with one hand, and the other hand went over his shoulder, pointing to the north.

Chang Jing turned around in displeasure, "Didn't you say that the amulet is in the Illusory Sea? Why did it suddenly change places? If you fucking dare to play me..."

"When I told you, it was indeed in the Illusion Sea." Xu Liang smiled unseriously, "But on the way we came, the amulet had already been taken to the north, and it was moving very fast."

Chang Jing immediately changed his face, "You didn't say it earlier!"

"It's on the way anyway, and I want to check here, Chang Xiaomao, do you know what is locked in the fantasy sea?"

Of course Chang Jing knew what was locked in the Illusory Sea, but this was a top secret, so how could he tell a goblin casually.

Chang Jing replied: "If you want to know, go in and see for yourself."

At this time, someone shouted: "Who is there!"

The administrators noticed the evil spirit of the green unicorn and rushed towards them quickly.

"Trouble." Chang Jing was too busy chasing after the amulet and didn't have time to entangle with them, but in this situation, he couldn't leave directly, otherwise he would be regarded as a suspicious person and be hunted down.

The young man in the lead put on a smiling face when he saw Chang Jing, "Hero Chang! You came just in time, Huanhai was in some trouble, and all the administrators came. I heard that you asked for leave, so I called you but No one was found."

Chang Jing said directly, "I still have things to do, so I'm leaving first."

"Hey! Don't go, Office Zhao is looking for you by name."

A person next to him answered, "That's right, Zhao Chu is very anxious, you should go over and show your face."

Chang Jing glanced at the Old Summer Palace, "What happened?"

One of them replied: "I don't know, we are in charge of guarding as soon as we come, and we have no chance to go in."

Another person said: "It seems that a goblin ran away, and someone from the special operations team chased it."

As soon as the special operations team was mentioned, there was a burst of boos from the crowd, and those little boys are the most annoying (╯‵ ′)╯︵┻━┻

Xu Liang hooked his fingers and scratched Chang Jing's ear, "Don't say I didn't remind you."

Chang Jing stopped thinking about what happened to Huanhai, and patted Qing Qilin on the head, and flew into the air in a blink of an eye.

"Hero Chang—"

"Don't go! We can't explain to Zhao Chu!"

Those administrators were still yelling, but Chang Jing headed north without looking back.

Xu Liang rested his chin on Chang Jing's shoulder, "Aren't you afraid of losing your job if you pull like this?"

Chang Jing: "If you want to lose it, you will lose it long ago."

Xu Liang: "Or, even if you lose your job, you have to give priority to saving the idiot?"

Chang Jing replied lightly, "Nonsense."

The wind was blowing from the soles of Qing Qilin's feet, and he walked quickly towards the northern sky. After walking for a few minutes, several muffled thunders exploded behind him. No, it was not thunder. ground.

Even though Chang Jing and the others were in the air, they could still feel that strange fluctuation, just like a stone falling into the water, causing turbulent ripples.

earthquake.

There is an indescribable smell hidden in the ripples, rising from the ground in circles, and at the same time making a very small but sharp sound.

It felt like someone was carving words on an iron plate with the tip of a needle.

Xu Liang covered his ears violently, but the voice still couldn't stop it from getting into his ears, from fragmentary to complete, from high pitched to low pitched, like repairing an antique record player.

Immediately afterwards, there was a loud noise deep in the ground, as if an invisible meteorite had hit the earth.

The sound waves rolled up the fine dust and suddenly rose up, like a surging tide, and rushed to the two of them in an instant.

The bodies of the two froze at the same time, and they both felt the pervasive evil spirit.

Chang Jing immediately looked back, and now she could vaguely see the night lights of the Old Summer Palace.

Obviously, the evil spirit came from the Old Summer Palace, that is, from the Magic Sea.

Chang Jing stopped Qing Qilin, turned her head and asked, "Are you sure it's in this direction, not the Magic Sea?"

Xu Liang replied with a smile: "If you don't believe me, you might as well turn around and go back."

Chang Jing stared into Xu Liang's eyes for three or four seconds, gave a low drink, and continued to drive Qing Qilin to gallop north.

Rationally speaking, Chang Jing believes that the amulet is still in the fantasy sea, otherwise how could there be such a big commotion?

But at such critical moments, he always believed in his intuition more. He didn't think the goblin who possessed Xu Liang was trustworthy, but he already believed him subconsciously.

I just hope this gamble is not wrong.

After chasing for a while, Chang Jing noticed a demonic aura in front of him. This was the demonic aura from ground wolves that he had encountered before.

Because the distance was too far, the evil spirit he felt was not strong, but it was obvious that this evil spirit was not simple, it should come from a whole pack of wolves.

At least thirty or more.

Chang Jing knew that dealing with twenty or thirty ground wolves at once was no joke, but he was relieved instead.

The presence of such an obvious evil spirit in front of him should prove that the direction is correct. As long as he catches up with the opponent, the rest of the problems will not be a problem.

Chang Jing took out a rune and pasted it on Qing Qilin's back, and recited a mantra.

With a low growl, Qing Qilin suddenly accelerated and chased forward.

There were fewer and fewer buildings around, and when they were about to reach the Ming Tombs Reservoir, they finally caught up with the ground wolf.

Chang Jing ordered the Qing Qilin to lower its altitude and observe the situation below.

The moonlight illuminates the forest park, and through the fence, a group of black figures can be seen rapidly heading towards the depths of the park.

Qing Qilin stepped over the fence, and when the distance became shorter and shorter, the ground wolves suddenly split into two groups, one headed west and the other headed east, and scattered into the forest.

Before Chang Jing had time to make a judgment, a hurricane rolled up behind him, and then a purple light flashed past, Yue Zhuo let out a long cry, and spread his wings to chase the ground wolf.

Xu Liang pointed to Yue Zhuo, "Follow him and chase the group to the east."

Chang Jing hesitated for a moment, because he felt that the evil spirit in the west was stronger.

At this time, the few ground wolves running at the end suddenly turned around and rushed towards Yuezhuo.

The remaining ground wolves split into two groups and fled in different directions. Including the westward group, they divided into three groups in total, heading in three directions.

Yue Zhuo circled around with more than a dozen ground wolves, and said to Xu Liang: "You keep chasing, don't worry about me."

Xu Liang looked at the ground wolf going away, and quickly chose a direction from the middle, "Over there!"

The green unicorn chased into the forest, and the moonlight cast mottled silver light through the canopy. After a while, the shadow became thicker and the moonlight became weaker.

I don't know when, there was a black mist around me.

Chang Jing has experience with ground wolves, and knows that this is the barrier of ground wolves. Once trapped in it, it will take a lot of trouble.

He took out the talisman, threw it in four directions, east, west, north, south, and chanted a mantra in a low voice. The white light from the talisman dispelled the black mist, but the mist soon filled up again. Chang Jing had no choice but to continue to cast spells, but the black mist was also there. Keep fighting back.

After more than ten minutes of stalemate, the black mist finally dissipated completely, but they were also thrown away by a considerable distance by the ground wolf.

Chang Jing urged Qing Qilin to speed up, but Qing Qilin seemed to be very tired, and his pace became slower and slower. After a while, he suddenly staggered and fell to the ground.

It was only then that Chang Jing realized that something was wrong with Qing Qilin's appearance. The scales on his body turned black, and he must have been poisoned by some kind of poisonous miasma.

Chang Jing didn't bring the antidote with him, so he had to take back the green unicorn and chase after it on foot.

How could the one with two legs run faster than the one with four legs? The distance between the two of them and the ground wolf was getting farther and farther. Chang Jing was sweating profusely from running, and while tugging at the collar of his shirt, he asked Xu Liang : "Is the direction right? You lead the way."

Xu Liang stretched out his hand, wiped Chang Jing's face with his sleeve, and wiped off the sweat for him, "Is it worth it to chase so hard?"

Chang Jing glared at Xu Liang, "What nonsense."

At this time, a familiar evil spirit chased after him, winding up like clear spring water, which made people feel comfortable physically and mentally.

Chang Jing immediately stopped, gasped and looked at Yue Zhuo who was chasing after her.

The purple phoenix leaned down and said to the two, "Come up, I'll take you there."

The huge wings spread out in the air, and the distance has been significantly shortened between opening and closing.

After a while, Yue Zhuo fluttered his wings suddenly, and suddenly rushed out like an arrow, circled in front of the ground wolf, and cut off their way.

Until then, the few people had a serious face-to-face meeting with the wolves.

Chang Jing's pupils contracted slightly, looking at the white figure under the moonlight—his figure was no stronger than other ground wolves, but there was an air of arrogance in his eyes that could not be ignored.

Chang Jing looked at the white wolf, frowned and said, "Yong Ye."
