When Nanshan and his group arrived at Haotian City, it was just a few days later in the morning.
At that time, the sun had just risen, and Haotian City, bathed in the rising sun, looked prosperous and peaceful, and there was no danger.
As soon as Nanshan's group landed at the gate of the city, Hua Zuike and others who had been waiting here immediately greeted them.
"Brother Shan!" Chao Mu happily ran to the front. When he saw the four of them clearly, he was stunned for a moment, and then he was a little happy, and said to one of them, "Little boss, you are here too?!"
That "little boss" was naturally not Dongli himself, but Taichu.
Because Dongli and Nanshan originally planned to travel around after forming alchemy in Nanshan, and eat and repair pavilions in major cities by the way.So on the way here, Nanshan suggested that Dongli should also open a food repair pavilion in Haotian City, and it would not be in vain for them to come here specially.
Dongli thought it was okay, and wanted to return to the NPC status, but Nanshan was reluctant, so he suggested that Taichu should come out to play.If that's the case, no one will suspect that he is the runner NPC.
Because Dongli himself has the same demeanor as when he was an NPC.Even if you change your image and face, you can easily recognize it.At least, Nanshan is recognizable at a glance.
So, the three of them, coming here turned into a foursome.
Taichu imitated Dongli's appearance and nodded lightly.
"That's it!" Hua Zuike laughed, "We are looking for you, little boss! When are you free, can you help us make a set of equipment? Our spirit stones are all ready."
Taichu was connected with Dongli's spiritual consciousness, and Dongli conveyed his meaning to him, almost able to synchronize his thinking, so Taichu nodded without stagnation, "I'll talk about this in detail later."
"Oh yes!" Hua Zuike slapped his head and said apologetically, "You see, I am impatient and impolite! You just arrived, you are full of travel and dust, you have to go to the inn to wash up and rest."
As he said that, he quickly invited them into the city, "Let's go! We have already booked a hotel for you, so you should take a rest and have a meal first."
Afterwards, Hua Zuike turned to Dong Li and Long Jiu, and saw that one of them was noble and unparalleled, and the other was extremely noble. They didn't pretend to show it, but they were obviously easy-going and friendly, but faintly revealed their demeanor, which was even concealed. The kind that can't live.
Hua Zuike had never seen such a magnanimous and imposing person among the leaders of the Guo family, which made him inexplicably short of breath, "Hi, you..."
Moreover, the hand that just stretched out seemed to have a sudden emotion. For some reason, she was a little timid, and gently tugged at Nanshan, and asked in a low voice, "How should I be polite to them?"
I always feel that shaking hands with them seems to be an offense.Inexplicably, I feel like I am a little inadequate.
Nan Shan smiled, "No need, Ah Li and Brother Jiu are relatively easy-going people."
Dongli did nodded slightly, "There's no need to be too polite."
Long Jiu also nodded lightly, "Enter the city first, so you don't need to pay attention to these formalities."
"Oh, okay!" So Hua Zuike and others hurriedly led Nanshan's group and walked towards the city.
When they came to the inn to settle down, Hua Zuike ordered a large table of good wine and food to entertain them, and poured wine for the three of Dong Li himself, "Come, come, the food here is not as good as Shixiu Pavilion, but the taste is not bad. Especially this wine, it's so strong!"
"It won't be long." Nanshan said with a smile, "The little boss has already planned to open a food repair pavilion here. After dinner, I will go to the restaurant with the little boss."
"Really?!" Hua Zuike looked at Taichu in surprise, saw Taichu nodded slightly, and said happily, "Oh, that's great! I haven't eaten food from Shixiu Pavilion for a long time."
After all, it is very rare for them to go to Yong'an City or Fufeng County now.
After finishing speaking, he happened to pour the wine for Long Jiu and Dong Li first, and then for Tai Chu, "Little Boss, come on! We can use us to eat and build pavilions later, so just talk."
Taichu politely thanked Dongli according to Dongli's intention.
Nan Shan anxiously waited with his wine glass in his hands. Seeing that the drunken flower had been poured by Tai Chu, he immediately stretched out his wine glass, "Give me some too!"
"Go, go!" The drunken flower pushed away his wine glass, "What kind of wine does a kid who just turned 18 drink?! Be careful not to grow up!"
Long Jiu was shocked when he heard the words, "Brother Shan is so young?!"
"Young?!" Chaomu and the others were taken aback for a moment, then couldn't help but laugh, "Young...hahaha——!"
Unconvinced, Nanshan put the empty wine glass on the table, "I'm so young?! I'm not too young, okay?!"
Everyone immediately laughed even more happily, and Chao Mu couldn't help but pat Nan Shan on the shoulder, "Brother Shan, everyone is a gentle man, don't be so flamboyant, please?"
Dongli, who had been scorned by Nanshan a few times, seemed to be thinking about something, so he couldn't help coughing lightly.
Only Long Jiu looked puzzled, could there be something wrong with what he said? 18 years old is really just a newborn cub period for them, not yet time for cubs to take a nap.
Even if the human life span is short, 18 years old should be regarded as a young age, right?
Nan Shan glanced at Zhao Mu in disgust, "I'm talking serious, is it your own head full of pornographic trash?"
"Okay, okay, you two who are boring to bicker, shut up!" Without looking at who was at the dinner table, Hua Zuike glared at the two of them, and then motioned for everyone to hold up their wine glasses and toast Long Jiu, Dongli and Taichu, "You two..."
Hua Zuike didn't know how to address the two of them, so naturally he couldn't follow Nanshan and call him Brother Ali Nine. Seeing the extraordinary momentum of the two, he said, "...Boss, and Boss, this cup, We respect you! Do first and respect!"
Saying that, Chao Mu, Fo Nian and Jiang Han Ting, together with Hua Zui Ke, raised their hands and raised their heads to drink it all in one gulp!
Long Jiu, Dong Li and Tai Chu also brought wine to their mouths.
Only Nanshan, who was "isolated" and had no alcohol, approached Taichu quietly, and asked in a low voice, "Can you drink? If you can't, let me help you?"
Tai Chu glanced at him with his small white eyes, and then deliberately drank it in one gulp under his anxious eyes.
Nanshan suddenly let out a soft "rely", and even the soft and cute Taichu turned bad.
When Dongli saw it, he asked Taichu to take out a pot of Lingxianglu for him.
Chaomu immediately joked about whether Nanshan was still drinking milk. Nanshan was about to start a fight with him, but was stopped by Huazuike's eyes. waking up.
"There are more than 3000 comatose people in this city now," Hua Zuike first introduced the general situation in the city to Dongli and others, "and it keeps increasing every day. At least four or five people a day, as many as A dozen or so. So, in fact, the situation is quite serious now."
Dongli heard the words and asked, "Then what do you find in common with those comatose people now? Have they been to the same place? Have they done anything in common? Even eaten similar food , Wearing common clothes, etc.? Also, what were they doing when they were unconscious? What kind of state were they in? What unusual behavior did they have before they were unconscious?"
"There is nothing in common, and there is no abnormal behavior." Huazuike shook his head, and everyone had already checked all of these. "They were all without illness or injury, for no reason, and suddenly fell into a coma. Some were eating. , Some are sleeping, some are walking, some are fighting monsters, there are all kinds of things. I have never been to the same place or done the same thing. It is very scattered, very messy, and irregular .”
Nothing in common?Dong Li frowned, pondered for a while, and asked, "Who was the person who suffered from this symptom at first? Have you found out his traces? Is he... is he still alive?"
Hua Zuike shook his head with a slightly heavy expression, "It's long gone. Those who are in a coma, the longer they are in a coma, the weaker their breath. Now there are more than 2000 who look normal, like deep sleep; there are more than 1000, I was so angry that I felt like I might die at any moment."
"As for the whereabouts of the person who was unconscious at the beginning, he is a Jindan cultivator of this Haotian Academy. He goes out to fight monsters, clear dungeons, and attends classes in the academy to practice and run tasks. There is nothing unusual about him. There are several of him who often The teammates who moved together are almost in the same track as him, and they are all fine."
Dong Li asked carefully, "Then where was he and what was he doing when he was unconscious?"
"Just in the dormitory of the school, sleeping at night, roommates can't wake up in the morning, and don't care." After all, it is human nature to stay in bed, especially young people who like to stay up late. Find something wrong."
"Then," Dongli thought for a while, and then asked, "How long have those comatose people been in a coma before they gradually lost their voices?"
Hua Zuike frowned and shook his head, "There doesn't seem to be a uniform time, some people have one or two months, some people have three to five months. The shortest is that the person is gone on the seventh day. The longest, there is a It has been more than half a year since the first batch of comatose people seem to be still there."
"Oh, that's right!" Hua Zuike remembered something and said, "That person seems to know Xiao Shan and Xiao Boss, what's his name is Yan, the one who looks very good-looking."
Nan Shan was taken aback when he heard that, "Yan Qing?"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Hua Zuike nodded, "It's called Yan Qing!"
Immediately, both Dongli and Nanshan were a little surprised.
Although Nanshan didn't like Yan Qing very much, he didn't really hate her either.And there was no hostility, and there was even a little friendship, so I asked Dongli, "Shall we go and see him?"
Help if you can.Anyway, he had helped the little boss before, so he should return the favor.
In fact, after Dongli learned about the situation, he almost knew it in his heart, but he had to go to confirm it himself, so he asked Hua Zuike, "Where are those unconscious people placed now? Is it convenient to visit?"
"It's convenient!" On the other side of Haotian City, I hope that someone can find out the cause of the problem, "It will be placed in the largest medical center in this city, and someone will take care of it, just like taking care of a vegetative person."
So Dongli immediately decided, "It's not too late, let's go and have a look after dinner, shall we?"
As he spoke, he looked at Long Jiu and Nan Shan inquiringly.
Nan Shan immediately agreed, "I'll go with you!"
Long Jiu also nodded, "Let's go and have a look together."
So the group went straight to the medical center after eating.
Although the medical clinic in the game has an ancient name, its operation and management still follow the model of a modern high-tech hospital.Therefore, those comatose people were placed in various wards of the entire building, and were carefully and properly cared for by AI NPCs.
Dongli went to see some of the latest coma patients and those who had been in coma for a long time, and was basically sure what was going on.
Nan Shan saw that his expression was clear, and asked quietly, "But what's the problem?"
Dongli shook his head slightly at him, motioning to go back and say, "Go and see that Yan Qing again."
Because that Yan Qing's status seemed to be a bit high, she was placed in a special place, and she had to apply for a special application to check it.So after they had watched several ordinary comatose people, Hua Zuike and others took down the application.
Then Dongli and the others, under the supervision of many people with high levels of cultivation, walked into the separate ward where Yan Qing was, and saw Yan Qing lying on the clean hospital bed as if sleeping, with a peaceful expression, as usual. Generally asleep.
It's just that after lying down for more than half a year, his complexion was a little withered and pale, and his whole body lost a lot of weight.
But even so, it still does not diminish his magnificent demeanor.
The first time Dongli saw him, just like Long Jiu, he raised his eyebrows indistinctly, and was just about to take the opportunity to feel his pulse to find out what's going on in his body like an ordinary comatose person. , but was stopped by the guards.
The other party said that this Yan Qing was in a special situation and had an unusual status, so no one could touch her casually.Otherwise, if something goes wrong, no one can afford it.
Nanshan immediately became upset, and directly dragged Dongli out, "Let's go, let's not look at it, what's so interesting! Good intentions will not be rewarded!"
Ben kindly wanted the little boss to help him, since he didn't want it, then forget it.Anyway, he didn't have a good impression of that Yan Qing.
In fact, Dong Li also knew what was going on without looking at it, so he left with Nanshan in a good manner.
Hua Zuike was a little confused, looked at Nanshan who was dragging Dongli away, and then looked at Taichu who was left behind, and took care of Taichu and walked out of the hospital together.
His poor apprentice, couldn't it be that he wanted to change his mind after seeing a different person, and transferred his love to another?
Otherwise, why did he come back this time, his star-like eyes were chasing after that so-called "Ah Li", and he didn't even look at "Little Boss"? !
How dare you be a scumbag at such a young age? !When he is free later, he, the master, has to teach him a lesson.
But right now, the matter of the monk's coma is the most important thing, so as soon as he returned to the inn, Hua Zuike immediately asked, "Do you see what the problem is?"
Dong Li nodded lightly, "If there is no accident, there should be a soul cultivator who is refining the soul."
"Soul cultivation?!" Not to mention Hua Zuike and others, even Nanshan, who followed Dongli's knowledge and experience, was also surprised, "What is soul cultivation?! There are other monks like that?!"
Long Jiu's expression was lazy, and he snorted disinterestedly, "It's just a kind of unpopular heresy."
Dongli also nodded, "It's a kind of evil cultivation. It is one of the disgraceful forbidden techniques to cultivate and replenish the soul with the soul that devours all kinds of creatures. It is generally done by meditation. Soul cultivation is a part of meditation. kind."
"Meditation?" Nanshan and the others heard another new word, and as the name suggests, "Could it be ghost cultivation?!"
Dongli thought about the meaning of ghosts on Earth, nodded, "Almost."
"Fuck!" Hua Zuike and the others were startled, and Chao Mu was even startled, "There are ghosts in this game?!"
Seeing that they seemed to be frightened, Long Jiu immediately laughed at them inexplicably, "How can you, such a dignified monk, still be afraid of the weak soul that will disperse after the death of a living being?"
When Hua Zuike and the others heard this, they looked at each other in blank dismay, as if there was some truth to it.
However, is it human nature to be afraid of ghosts?
Zhaomu even wanted to scream: Ahhhhhhhhhhh!There are ghosts!
In fact, Nanshan also had a bit of scalp numbness and goosebumps on his arms. He looked around behind him suspiciously, feeling a little chilly for no reason, so he approached Dongli and asked, "Those things, don't they come and go without a trace?"
Dongli has learned about the ghost culture on Earth Planet, and said funnyly, "No. They are all energy bodies. You are monks and have cultivated energy, so you can see them naturally. Don't be afraid, they are actually not as powerful as spirit beasts. They belong to In spiritual cultivation, it is the weakest one. That is to say, after a living being loses its body, it can only cultivate its soul."
"Oh, as long as you can see them." The little boss explained that Nanshan didn't feel much fear, and asked again when he remembered something, "Then do they have the ability to upper body or manipulate people?"
"They do exist." This Dongli did not deny, "But you are all monks, have spiritual power to protect your body, and your spirits and souls have already been cultivated. How can a little meditation practice take it away? Unless meditation is much stronger than you , but the meditation practice that is much stronger than you, I am afraid that you will not look down on your flesh/body."
After hearing Dongli's explanation, everyone felt no fear at all.
If you can see it, then there is really nothing to be afraid of, just like a kind of monster.I'm afraid that what you can't see and can't touch, but the other party can spy on you secretly, and even wreak havoc secretly, it feels very uncomfortable.
"By the way," Hua Zuike was in the medical clinic before, but he noticed the expressions of Dong Li and Long Jiu, "I saw that when you saw Yan Qing, you were a little... well, how should I put it, it seems Sure? Is there something wrong with him?"
Dong Li nodded slightly, "When we went before, that thing should have just left Yan Qing's body not long ago."
Maybe he sensed the powerful aura of the dragon god, and ran away immediately when he saw the situation was wrong, which was very cunning.
"What?!" Hua Zuike and the others were shocked when they heard that, "That thing just left Yan Qing?! But Yan Qing has been in a coma for half a year!"
Dongli knows, and it is precisely because of knowing that he can judge, "So, he is very likely to be the source."
Without the source as a guide, how can a person's soul be so easily plundered and swallowed?Between creatures, there is a lawful boundary wall to protect them.If there is no "one of our own" to lure wolves into the house, it will be difficult for soul cultivators to plunder human souls.
So Dongli said "very likely" just to save Yan Qing some face, but it was actually [-]%.
Therefore, Long Jiu sneered very unceremoniously, "That kid probably has an evil mind. He signed a master-servant contract with that thing, willing to be the slave of that thing, and hunted the souls of living beings for it. Maybe he was backlashed at the moment, so he just Unconscious."
However, Dongli felt that the Yan Qing he came into contact with didn't look like the kind of person with evil intentions, let alone someone who was willing to be a slave, so he had another guess, "It may also be a soul-devouring beast. "
Because he knew that the Earth people wanted to tame spirit beasts as war pets, so, "Maybe Yan Qing was tricked."
After all, people from planet Earth know almost nothing about cultivation.If the cunning soul-devouring beast finds out about this, it is very likely to cause trouble.
"Soul-devouring beast?!" Hua Zuike and the others received a lot of knowledge today, which was a bit difficult to digest for a while, "What is that? A kind of spirit beast? One that eats human souls? A spirit beast with a human soul?"
Dongli shook his head slightly, "It is a soul beast formed under certain conditions with lingering resentment and malice after the death of many monsters. It is also a kind of meditation. It is not a soul that eats people. It eats everything."
"However, the higher the spiritual intelligence, the more beneficial it is to evolve. The more intelligent creatures it devours and refines, the higher its spiritual intelligence and the faster it evolves, because it can absorb and refine the consciousness in the soul .And it can absorb all the thoughts and memories in that consciousness.”
"It turned out to be the result of the resentment after the death of the monster?" Nanshan heard something and remembered, "Is this a bit like..."
Originally, I wanted to say, is it a bit like the Spirit of Law that you subdued in Changle Village.
But then he remembered that Chao Mu and Jiang Hanting were both present when the little boss subdued the spirit of the law.If he said it directly, wouldn't that expose the real identity of the little boss?
So Nanshan stopped talking in time.
Dong Li seemed to have a good heart with him, and could hear what he hadn't finished speaking, and nodded slightly, "But it's not a thing, I'll explain it to you later."
Nanshan didn't expect that he didn't say anything, the little boss understood what he meant, and nodded with a bright smile, "Mmmmmm."
Then he asked with some concern, "Then what should we do now? Were the souls of the more than 3000 people eaten by that thing? Can't they be saved?"
What Nanshan is worried about is, if the soul is lost in the game, can people wake up in reality?
He has vaguely understood some things now. If those people can't wake up in reality and cause such a large number of casualties, how should the game official explain to the general public?
Will this game be forced to shut down?
If the game is forced to stop, can he still meet the little boss?
Dongli pondered for a while, "Judging from the breath left by that thing, its level will not be too high, and it won't consume so much soul energy in half a year. As long as you catch that thing, the more than 3000 people should still be saved .It’s just that those who have been in a coma for a longer time may lose some sanity.”
"Losing some sanity?" Nanshan frowned and asked, "Are you becoming stupid?"
If so many people become stupid playing the game, it will be regarded as a major casualty event, and it is not good.
Dongli nodded slightly.
Seeing this, Nanshan hurriedly asked again, "Is it possible to recover after becoming stupid?"
"Yes." Dongli knew, "The soul is incomplete, and you can cultivate or weave the soul. But this secret method..."
Dong Li said, looking at Long Jiu.
Because this secret method is a divine technique, only the God Realm has it, and only divine power can do it.
Long Jiu nodded, "I...we have it, and I will too. If you wait...you can wake up those people. If there are some people with broken spirits, I can help repair them."
"Great!" Nan Shan looked at Long Jiu adoringly, almost as if he was a savior, "Brother Jiu, you are really a great Bodhisattva who saves the suffering and saves the common people!"
Long Jiu was funny, and after getting along for a while, he probably understood Nanshan's temperament, "Go ahead, if you want me to work, you can just say compliments."
Nanshan, who had been seen through, smiled embarrassedly, "Hey, hey", "Even if it's a compliment, it's my sincerity, okay?! Saving thousands of lives! What a merit! From now on, Brother Nine, you are My idol!"
Long Jiu was too lazy to listen to his flickering flattery, "That also requires you to find the souls of those unconscious people first, and wake them up."
Nanshan immediately asked Dongli when he heard the words, "Before you said, did that thing escape? Where will it escape? How do we catch that thing? Do you have a way?"
"Yes." Dong Li turned his hand and took out a stack of talismans to him, "That thing already has a human breath, and it is very likely that it will be hidden in someone's soul, so it will be difficult to detect."
As he spoke, he glanced at Dizzy Drunk and the others, "That thing is very cunning, take the talisman, and try to stick it on everyone without a trace. If it is there, it will be sucked into this talisman Then you quickly bring it back to me, and I can release the undigested spirit that has been swallowed up by it."
"Oh." Nanshan took the talisman, and immediately shared two with Hua Zuike and the others, "Then this job is a big project! What if it goes to other places? The world is so big and there are so many people ! Do you want to mobilize more people to look for it?"
Dong Li shook his head, "Don't scare the snake. You five are now, I can be sure that it is not hidden by that thing, but what if someone else has it? If you tell others, it is very likely that it will hear the wind."
Even in this inn room, he habitually sealed off the area as soon as he entered, so as not to be overheard.
"Besides, Yan Qing, who signed the contract with it, is still here. It should not be willing to go far before it has no other choice. Therefore, you should catch it as soon as possible. Otherwise, wait until it goes far away and leaves Haotian City , then it’s really a needle in a haystack.”
It can be said that if that thing no longer does evil, it is almost difficult to find its trace.
Hua Zuike immediately stood up and said, "Then let's go now! Don't let it get away!"
The others all nodded and stood up with slightly dignified expressions.
Seeing that they were all going out, Dongli explained, "Remember! When the talisman sticks to people, it must not leave a trace, don't let that thing be noticed, and it must stick to the skin of the person to be more effective."
Because most monks' cassocks have the function of protection and isolation.
"Okay!" Nanshan also pulled Taichu up, "I'll stop by and order the restaurants that open for food and build pavilions."
Anyway, when they went out, they were aimlessly looking for a needle in a haystack, so it's better to take care of the food repair pavilion by the way.
Dongli nodded in agreement, "Go."
Then the five of them left in a hurry with a system, leaving only Long Jiu to smile and praise Dong Li, "Brother Li is really good at it, even the formation of the art of capturing evil souls can be set in a small area." in the talisman."
Dong Li smiled modestly, "In the past, my stupid brother didn't do his job properly, and liked to delve into some rare and elegant gadgets, but Brother Jiu laughed at him."
But Long Jiu shook his head appreciatively, "Brother Li, don't be modest! Maybe it's your many ideas and creativity that created your way of law."
"Speaking of creativity." Dongli admired the people from the planet Earth, got up and invited, "Brother Ninth came to the human world for the first time, do you want to walk around? The wisdom of these people from the planet Earth and some of their creations are really impressive Wow."
"Oh?" Long Jiu raised his eyebrows with interest, "Then I will be guided by Brother Lao Li."
"It's my honor." Dong Li said and invited out, "Please."
Long Jiu nodded slightly, and stepped out of the room.
Just came to the street, and after walking not far, Long Jiu sensed the aura of that evil thing, and immediately understood Dong Li's intentions, and suddenly laughed, "Brother Li wants to help brother, just to put it bluntly, Why be so tactful?"
Dong Li was not surprised that Long Jiu would see his intentions, and bowed his hands in embarrassment to plead guilty, "How dare you use a sledgehammer to kill a chicken? How dare you work Brother Jiu for a mere evil thing? That's too much for him. I don't dare to have it." To humiliate Brother Nine's Dragon God. However, Nanshan and the others are afraid that there is nothing they can do, so they have no choice but to resort to this plan."
In this way, they were just walking on the road, and when the evil thing bumped into them, it was a simple effort to do it, it was not like asking the majestic dragon god to catch a small evil thing.
After all, if Long Jiu's spiritual consciousness spread out, as long as the evil thing is in this middle world, there will be nowhere to hide.
Moreover, Dong Li didn't know if the Dragon God intervened in the affairs of the human world, whether it would be considered cross-border interference, and whether it would affect Long Jiu.
If Long Jiu just happened to "do what is right" or "draw a sword to help" by accident, then it should not be counted.
So Dongli said that this is the worst policy, but it is actually the best policy to act well.
"It doesn't matter." Long Jiu shook his head indifferently, and then grabbed it casually in the air. A black light seemed to be accompanied by a scream, and he was directly sucked into the palm of his hand from an unknown distance and grabbed it. , handed it to Dongli, "Here."
Dongli quickly took it with both hands, and thanked him sincerely, "Thank you Brother Nine!"
"You are enthusiastic." Long Jiu actually didn't intend to intervene, because, "This is the man-made cause, and they should bear the consequences. No matter how heavy the casualties are, they should suffer."
"I don't want to be enthusiastic." Dongli shook his head slightly, took out the talisman to seal the evil thing in, and then put it away, "It's those people, I'm afraid they can't catch this evil thing at all."
In that case, the Earthlings would lose too much, and they might really shut down the game.
If that's the case, there will be no human beings in the Three Realms, and the way of the law will not be easy to cultivate.
For this, Long Jiu nodded in agreement.Ever since he entered the human world, he has noticed, "Those fake human beings don't seem to have really entered the Tao. Those golden core bodies don't even have the traces and breath of thunder calamity."
Dong Li nodded, and invited Long Jiu to continue walking around, "Indeed not. They are not recognized by the biological laws here, and they are not recognized as a kind of creature."
Long Jiu raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Since that's the case, how did Brother Shan do it? His Golden Elixir seems to have the Law of Nine Thunder Tribulations attached to him."
Speaking of this, Dongli said with a guilty conscience, "It was the foolish brother who made a small plan to hide the sky and cross the sea, so that the biological law reluctantly recognized it, so he was able to overcome the calamity and form the alchemy."
Hearing this, Long Jiu was surprised, and then couldn't help laughing "haha", "No wonder Brother Li can cultivate the way of the law, and he can take advantage of the loopholes of the law. If it knew, it would blow its beard and stare with anger."
"Ninth brother, don't laugh at it. Brother Yu has no choice but to do it." Dong Li also pursed his lips and smiled, and jokingly begged for mercy, "Ninth brother, please don't file a complaint."
"This is your great talent, it's really wonderful!" Long Jiu waved his hands without any hesitation, not only admiring him, but also gloating over his misfortune, "The Dao of Heaven can't beat you, it deserves to be sulky!"
Dong Li doesn't think he has taken advantage of the loopholes in the law, which is something to be proud of, "I heard Brother Jiu say that Brother Shan pretends to be a real person, and it is not appropriate after all. Brother Yu doesn't know, so I ask Brother Jiu to give me some advice. OK?"
Long Jiu looked around the shops on both sides of the street with great interest, "A fake is a fake after all, it can't be true. You can hide it for a while, but you can't hide it forever. When Brother Shan crosses the catastrophe and ascends in the future, the law of heaven may have to count The ledger is over."
Dongli felt relieved when he heard that, "That's okay. After he transforms into a god, I will try my best to reshape his real body."
Dongli had no intention of letting Nanshan use this game account to practice until the end.After all, this game account is always monitored by the mastermind, so it is inappropriate to do anything.
Long Jiu nodded unsurprisingly, "I think you have the same method."
That's why he didn't comment much before.
The two were on the street, chatting and laughing happily while strolling, and unexpectedly met Nanshan and Taichu who had hurried back, "Ah Li! The food repair pavilion is done!"
Dong Li was a little surprised, "Is it done so quickly?"
Nanshan nodded with a bright smile, "They seem to be waiting for you to open a store. I took Taichuyi there, and they immediately took out several buildings for us to choose. Once the selection is completed, the procedure will be completed in less than 10 minutes."
"I went to see it just now. It's a five-story building with a very large area. The decoration is good. It's the same as Yong'an City. We can open for business after hanging a sign." After Nanshan said excitedly, he asked , "Do you want to go see it now?"
Dong Li looked at Long Jiu, "Does Brother Jiu want to go and have a look?"
If he had no intention, they'd better send Long Jiu back to the inn first.If Long Jiu is allowed to wander alone on the road, in case of a conflict with someone, it will be a lot of fun.
Long Jiu didn't care, he just looked around the human world anyway, "Yes."
Then the group of people immediately turned around and walked towards the restaurant.
Nanshan is active in his work, "Should I post the recruitment information on the Internet now and recruit employees to come for interviews? If we can get the employees done today, then we can open the business tomorrow."
Dongli is also a vigorous and decisive person, he doesn't like to procrastinate when doing things, "Yes."
On the contrary, Long Jiu looked curiously, "Is it so simple and fast to open a shop in the human world? Your venue, supply of goods, and labor are all done? If you want to open a restaurant, don't you need a special chef?"
As far as he knew, his two stupid younger brothers didn't seem to have bought anything, right?
what to do?Long Jiu secretly felt a little worried: The younger brother who has just been accepted, seems a bit silly.
Dongli smiled mysteriously, "Brother Jiu will find out when he goes to have a look."
This made Long Jiu curious, and when he went to the restaurant, he saw Dong Li's "smart kitchen" in the back kitchen, and after understanding its function, he called out novelty, "There is such a strange thing? ! Can cook automatically? It’s unheard of!”
"This is a magic weapon that I refined based on the ideas of the people on Earth." Dong Li also sighed, "I was also very surprised when I saw this thing for the first time."
"Wonderful!" Long Jiu clapped his palms and praised, and was very interested when he was done, his eyes were bright and he was not polite to Dong Li at all, "Brother Li will have free time in the future, can you make a copy for my brother?" This strange thing? He will wait for me to go back, but there must be a strange thing to show off."
Dongli smiled, "Of course. It's just that this smart kitchen can't refine food that can be refined by food cultivation. So the food sold in the food cultivation pavilion is all refined by me in the beginning. If Brother Nine wants to cultivate gourmet food, would you mind if I set up a teleportation circle connected to the beginning of time in the refined smart kitchen?"
"Why not?" Long Jiu didn't mind at all, but, "Could the teleportation ability in the beginning be able to break the boundary?"
In the beginning, it was an artifact, this Long Jiu knew it.Because when Taichu first came out to act, he saw the golden light of the artifact on Taichu's body at a glance.
This Dongli is not too clear, "Small boundaries can be crossed."
Because before, when he went to the Demon Realm and the Spirit Realm, in the beginning, he could still deliver food, elixirs, etc. to the Shixiu Pavilion in the Middle Realm, and he could also receive various refining materials that were automatically purchased.
I just don't know, "I don't know if it's feasible to cross the big world."
"If it's feasible," Long Jiu pondered, "then even if I return to the God Realm in the future, wouldn't I still be able to communicate with the two virtuous brothers?"
Thinking of this, Long Jiu was very happy, "At that time, brother Li can use ingredients from the God Realm to refine gourmet food. If the two virtuous brothers need anything from the God Realm, I can send it for you!"
Dong Li's eyes lit up when he heard it, isn't this the communication with the God Realm? !
If it is really feasible, there are many benefits!All the refining materials in the God Realm,
At that time, the sun had just risen, and Haotian City, bathed in the rising sun, looked prosperous and peaceful, and there was no danger.
As soon as Nanshan's group landed at the gate of the city, Hua Zuike and others who had been waiting here immediately greeted them.
"Brother Shan!" Chao Mu happily ran to the front. When he saw the four of them clearly, he was stunned for a moment, and then he was a little happy, and said to one of them, "Little boss, you are here too?!"
That "little boss" was naturally not Dongli himself, but Taichu.
Because Dongli and Nanshan originally planned to travel around after forming alchemy in Nanshan, and eat and repair pavilions in major cities by the way.So on the way here, Nanshan suggested that Dongli should also open a food repair pavilion in Haotian City, and it would not be in vain for them to come here specially.
Dongli thought it was okay, and wanted to return to the NPC status, but Nanshan was reluctant, so he suggested that Taichu should come out to play.If that's the case, no one will suspect that he is the runner NPC.
Because Dongli himself has the same demeanor as when he was an NPC.Even if you change your image and face, you can easily recognize it.At least, Nanshan is recognizable at a glance.
So, the three of them, coming here turned into a foursome.
Taichu imitated Dongli's appearance and nodded lightly.
"That's it!" Hua Zuike laughed, "We are looking for you, little boss! When are you free, can you help us make a set of equipment? Our spirit stones are all ready."
Taichu was connected with Dongli's spiritual consciousness, and Dongli conveyed his meaning to him, almost able to synchronize his thinking, so Taichu nodded without stagnation, "I'll talk about this in detail later."
"Oh yes!" Hua Zuike slapped his head and said apologetically, "You see, I am impatient and impolite! You just arrived, you are full of travel and dust, you have to go to the inn to wash up and rest."
As he said that, he quickly invited them into the city, "Let's go! We have already booked a hotel for you, so you should take a rest and have a meal first."
Afterwards, Hua Zuike turned to Dong Li and Long Jiu, and saw that one of them was noble and unparalleled, and the other was extremely noble. They didn't pretend to show it, but they were obviously easy-going and friendly, but faintly revealed their demeanor, which was even concealed. The kind that can't live.
Hua Zuike had never seen such a magnanimous and imposing person among the leaders of the Guo family, which made him inexplicably short of breath, "Hi, you..."
Moreover, the hand that just stretched out seemed to have a sudden emotion. For some reason, she was a little timid, and gently tugged at Nanshan, and asked in a low voice, "How should I be polite to them?"
I always feel that shaking hands with them seems to be an offense.Inexplicably, I feel like I am a little inadequate.
Nan Shan smiled, "No need, Ah Li and Brother Jiu are relatively easy-going people."
Dongli did nodded slightly, "There's no need to be too polite."
Long Jiu also nodded lightly, "Enter the city first, so you don't need to pay attention to these formalities."
"Oh, okay!" So Hua Zuike and others hurriedly led Nanshan's group and walked towards the city.
When they came to the inn to settle down, Hua Zuike ordered a large table of good wine and food to entertain them, and poured wine for the three of Dong Li himself, "Come, come, the food here is not as good as Shixiu Pavilion, but the taste is not bad. Especially this wine, it's so strong!"
"It won't be long." Nanshan said with a smile, "The little boss has already planned to open a food repair pavilion here. After dinner, I will go to the restaurant with the little boss."
"Really?!" Hua Zuike looked at Taichu in surprise, saw Taichu nodded slightly, and said happily, "Oh, that's great! I haven't eaten food from Shixiu Pavilion for a long time."
After all, it is very rare for them to go to Yong'an City or Fufeng County now.
After finishing speaking, he happened to pour the wine for Long Jiu and Dong Li first, and then for Tai Chu, "Little Boss, come on! We can use us to eat and build pavilions later, so just talk."
Taichu politely thanked Dongli according to Dongli's intention.
Nan Shan anxiously waited with his wine glass in his hands. Seeing that the drunken flower had been poured by Tai Chu, he immediately stretched out his wine glass, "Give me some too!"
"Go, go!" The drunken flower pushed away his wine glass, "What kind of wine does a kid who just turned 18 drink?! Be careful not to grow up!"
Long Jiu was shocked when he heard the words, "Brother Shan is so young?!"
"Young?!" Chaomu and the others were taken aback for a moment, then couldn't help but laugh, "Young...hahaha——!"
Unconvinced, Nanshan put the empty wine glass on the table, "I'm so young?! I'm not too young, okay?!"
Everyone immediately laughed even more happily, and Chao Mu couldn't help but pat Nan Shan on the shoulder, "Brother Shan, everyone is a gentle man, don't be so flamboyant, please?"
Dongli, who had been scorned by Nanshan a few times, seemed to be thinking about something, so he couldn't help coughing lightly.
Only Long Jiu looked puzzled, could there be something wrong with what he said? 18 years old is really just a newborn cub period for them, not yet time for cubs to take a nap.
Even if the human life span is short, 18 years old should be regarded as a young age, right?
Nan Shan glanced at Zhao Mu in disgust, "I'm talking serious, is it your own head full of pornographic trash?"
"Okay, okay, you two who are boring to bicker, shut up!" Without looking at who was at the dinner table, Hua Zuike glared at the two of them, and then motioned for everyone to hold up their wine glasses and toast Long Jiu, Dongli and Taichu, "You two..."
Hua Zuike didn't know how to address the two of them, so naturally he couldn't follow Nanshan and call him Brother Ali Nine. Seeing the extraordinary momentum of the two, he said, "...Boss, and Boss, this cup, We respect you! Do first and respect!"
Saying that, Chao Mu, Fo Nian and Jiang Han Ting, together with Hua Zui Ke, raised their hands and raised their heads to drink it all in one gulp!
Long Jiu, Dong Li and Tai Chu also brought wine to their mouths.
Only Nanshan, who was "isolated" and had no alcohol, approached Taichu quietly, and asked in a low voice, "Can you drink? If you can't, let me help you?"
Tai Chu glanced at him with his small white eyes, and then deliberately drank it in one gulp under his anxious eyes.
Nanshan suddenly let out a soft "rely", and even the soft and cute Taichu turned bad.
When Dongli saw it, he asked Taichu to take out a pot of Lingxianglu for him.
Chaomu immediately joked about whether Nanshan was still drinking milk. Nanshan was about to start a fight with him, but was stopped by Huazuike's eyes. waking up.
"There are more than 3000 comatose people in this city now," Hua Zuike first introduced the general situation in the city to Dongli and others, "and it keeps increasing every day. At least four or five people a day, as many as A dozen or so. So, in fact, the situation is quite serious now."
Dongli heard the words and asked, "Then what do you find in common with those comatose people now? Have they been to the same place? Have they done anything in common? Even eaten similar food , Wearing common clothes, etc.? Also, what were they doing when they were unconscious? What kind of state were they in? What unusual behavior did they have before they were unconscious?"
"There is nothing in common, and there is no abnormal behavior." Huazuike shook his head, and everyone had already checked all of these. "They were all without illness or injury, for no reason, and suddenly fell into a coma. Some were eating. , Some are sleeping, some are walking, some are fighting monsters, there are all kinds of things. I have never been to the same place or done the same thing. It is very scattered, very messy, and irregular .”
Nothing in common?Dong Li frowned, pondered for a while, and asked, "Who was the person who suffered from this symptom at first? Have you found out his traces? Is he... is he still alive?"
Hua Zuike shook his head with a slightly heavy expression, "It's long gone. Those who are in a coma, the longer they are in a coma, the weaker their breath. Now there are more than 2000 who look normal, like deep sleep; there are more than 1000, I was so angry that I felt like I might die at any moment."
"As for the whereabouts of the person who was unconscious at the beginning, he is a Jindan cultivator of this Haotian Academy. He goes out to fight monsters, clear dungeons, and attends classes in the academy to practice and run tasks. There is nothing unusual about him. There are several of him who often The teammates who moved together are almost in the same track as him, and they are all fine."
Dong Li asked carefully, "Then where was he and what was he doing when he was unconscious?"
"Just in the dormitory of the school, sleeping at night, roommates can't wake up in the morning, and don't care." After all, it is human nature to stay in bed, especially young people who like to stay up late. Find something wrong."
"Then," Dongli thought for a while, and then asked, "How long have those comatose people been in a coma before they gradually lost their voices?"
Hua Zuike frowned and shook his head, "There doesn't seem to be a uniform time, some people have one or two months, some people have three to five months. The shortest is that the person is gone on the seventh day. The longest, there is a It has been more than half a year since the first batch of comatose people seem to be still there."
"Oh, that's right!" Hua Zuike remembered something and said, "That person seems to know Xiao Shan and Xiao Boss, what's his name is Yan, the one who looks very good-looking."
Nan Shan was taken aback when he heard that, "Yan Qing?"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Hua Zuike nodded, "It's called Yan Qing!"
Immediately, both Dongli and Nanshan were a little surprised.
Although Nanshan didn't like Yan Qing very much, he didn't really hate her either.And there was no hostility, and there was even a little friendship, so I asked Dongli, "Shall we go and see him?"
Help if you can.Anyway, he had helped the little boss before, so he should return the favor.
In fact, after Dongli learned about the situation, he almost knew it in his heart, but he had to go to confirm it himself, so he asked Hua Zuike, "Where are those unconscious people placed now? Is it convenient to visit?"
"It's convenient!" On the other side of Haotian City, I hope that someone can find out the cause of the problem, "It will be placed in the largest medical center in this city, and someone will take care of it, just like taking care of a vegetative person."
So Dongli immediately decided, "It's not too late, let's go and have a look after dinner, shall we?"
As he spoke, he looked at Long Jiu and Nan Shan inquiringly.
Nan Shan immediately agreed, "I'll go with you!"
Long Jiu also nodded, "Let's go and have a look together."
So the group went straight to the medical center after eating.
Although the medical clinic in the game has an ancient name, its operation and management still follow the model of a modern high-tech hospital.Therefore, those comatose people were placed in various wards of the entire building, and were carefully and properly cared for by AI NPCs.
Dongli went to see some of the latest coma patients and those who had been in coma for a long time, and was basically sure what was going on.
Nan Shan saw that his expression was clear, and asked quietly, "But what's the problem?"
Dongli shook his head slightly at him, motioning to go back and say, "Go and see that Yan Qing again."
Because that Yan Qing's status seemed to be a bit high, she was placed in a special place, and she had to apply for a special application to check it.So after they had watched several ordinary comatose people, Hua Zuike and others took down the application.
Then Dongli and the others, under the supervision of many people with high levels of cultivation, walked into the separate ward where Yan Qing was, and saw Yan Qing lying on the clean hospital bed as if sleeping, with a peaceful expression, as usual. Generally asleep.
It's just that after lying down for more than half a year, his complexion was a little withered and pale, and his whole body lost a lot of weight.
But even so, it still does not diminish his magnificent demeanor.
The first time Dongli saw him, just like Long Jiu, he raised his eyebrows indistinctly, and was just about to take the opportunity to feel his pulse to find out what's going on in his body like an ordinary comatose person. , but was stopped by the guards.
The other party said that this Yan Qing was in a special situation and had an unusual status, so no one could touch her casually.Otherwise, if something goes wrong, no one can afford it.
Nanshan immediately became upset, and directly dragged Dongli out, "Let's go, let's not look at it, what's so interesting! Good intentions will not be rewarded!"
Ben kindly wanted the little boss to help him, since he didn't want it, then forget it.Anyway, he didn't have a good impression of that Yan Qing.
In fact, Dong Li also knew what was going on without looking at it, so he left with Nanshan in a good manner.
Hua Zuike was a little confused, looked at Nanshan who was dragging Dongli away, and then looked at Taichu who was left behind, and took care of Taichu and walked out of the hospital together.
His poor apprentice, couldn't it be that he wanted to change his mind after seeing a different person, and transferred his love to another?
Otherwise, why did he come back this time, his star-like eyes were chasing after that so-called "Ah Li", and he didn't even look at "Little Boss"? !
How dare you be a scumbag at such a young age? !When he is free later, he, the master, has to teach him a lesson.
But right now, the matter of the monk's coma is the most important thing, so as soon as he returned to the inn, Hua Zuike immediately asked, "Do you see what the problem is?"
Dong Li nodded lightly, "If there is no accident, there should be a soul cultivator who is refining the soul."
"Soul cultivation?!" Not to mention Hua Zuike and others, even Nanshan, who followed Dongli's knowledge and experience, was also surprised, "What is soul cultivation?! There are other monks like that?!"
Long Jiu's expression was lazy, and he snorted disinterestedly, "It's just a kind of unpopular heresy."
Dongli also nodded, "It's a kind of evil cultivation. It is one of the disgraceful forbidden techniques to cultivate and replenish the soul with the soul that devours all kinds of creatures. It is generally done by meditation. Soul cultivation is a part of meditation. kind."
"Meditation?" Nanshan and the others heard another new word, and as the name suggests, "Could it be ghost cultivation?!"
Dongli thought about the meaning of ghosts on Earth, nodded, "Almost."
"Fuck!" Hua Zuike and the others were startled, and Chao Mu was even startled, "There are ghosts in this game?!"
Seeing that they seemed to be frightened, Long Jiu immediately laughed at them inexplicably, "How can you, such a dignified monk, still be afraid of the weak soul that will disperse after the death of a living being?"
When Hua Zuike and the others heard this, they looked at each other in blank dismay, as if there was some truth to it.
However, is it human nature to be afraid of ghosts?
Zhaomu even wanted to scream: Ahhhhhhhhhhh!There are ghosts!
In fact, Nanshan also had a bit of scalp numbness and goosebumps on his arms. He looked around behind him suspiciously, feeling a little chilly for no reason, so he approached Dongli and asked, "Those things, don't they come and go without a trace?"
Dongli has learned about the ghost culture on Earth Planet, and said funnyly, "No. They are all energy bodies. You are monks and have cultivated energy, so you can see them naturally. Don't be afraid, they are actually not as powerful as spirit beasts. They belong to In spiritual cultivation, it is the weakest one. That is to say, after a living being loses its body, it can only cultivate its soul."
"Oh, as long as you can see them." The little boss explained that Nanshan didn't feel much fear, and asked again when he remembered something, "Then do they have the ability to upper body or manipulate people?"
"They do exist." This Dongli did not deny, "But you are all monks, have spiritual power to protect your body, and your spirits and souls have already been cultivated. How can a little meditation practice take it away? Unless meditation is much stronger than you , but the meditation practice that is much stronger than you, I am afraid that you will not look down on your flesh/body."
After hearing Dongli's explanation, everyone felt no fear at all.
If you can see it, then there is really nothing to be afraid of, just like a kind of monster.I'm afraid that what you can't see and can't touch, but the other party can spy on you secretly, and even wreak havoc secretly, it feels very uncomfortable.
"By the way," Hua Zuike was in the medical clinic before, but he noticed the expressions of Dong Li and Long Jiu, "I saw that when you saw Yan Qing, you were a little... well, how should I put it, it seems Sure? Is there something wrong with him?"
Dong Li nodded slightly, "When we went before, that thing should have just left Yan Qing's body not long ago."
Maybe he sensed the powerful aura of the dragon god, and ran away immediately when he saw the situation was wrong, which was very cunning.
"What?!" Hua Zuike and the others were shocked when they heard that, "That thing just left Yan Qing?! But Yan Qing has been in a coma for half a year!"
Dongli knows, and it is precisely because of knowing that he can judge, "So, he is very likely to be the source."
Without the source as a guide, how can a person's soul be so easily plundered and swallowed?Between creatures, there is a lawful boundary wall to protect them.If there is no "one of our own" to lure wolves into the house, it will be difficult for soul cultivators to plunder human souls.
So Dongli said "very likely" just to save Yan Qing some face, but it was actually [-]%.
Therefore, Long Jiu sneered very unceremoniously, "That kid probably has an evil mind. He signed a master-servant contract with that thing, willing to be the slave of that thing, and hunted the souls of living beings for it. Maybe he was backlashed at the moment, so he just Unconscious."
However, Dongli felt that the Yan Qing he came into contact with didn't look like the kind of person with evil intentions, let alone someone who was willing to be a slave, so he had another guess, "It may also be a soul-devouring beast. "
Because he knew that the Earth people wanted to tame spirit beasts as war pets, so, "Maybe Yan Qing was tricked."
After all, people from planet Earth know almost nothing about cultivation.If the cunning soul-devouring beast finds out about this, it is very likely to cause trouble.
"Soul-devouring beast?!" Hua Zuike and the others received a lot of knowledge today, which was a bit difficult to digest for a while, "What is that? A kind of spirit beast? One that eats human souls? A spirit beast with a human soul?"
Dongli shook his head slightly, "It is a soul beast formed under certain conditions with lingering resentment and malice after the death of many monsters. It is also a kind of meditation. It is not a soul that eats people. It eats everything."
"However, the higher the spiritual intelligence, the more beneficial it is to evolve. The more intelligent creatures it devours and refines, the higher its spiritual intelligence and the faster it evolves, because it can absorb and refine the consciousness in the soul .And it can absorb all the thoughts and memories in that consciousness.”
"It turned out to be the result of the resentment after the death of the monster?" Nanshan heard something and remembered, "Is this a bit like..."
Originally, I wanted to say, is it a bit like the Spirit of Law that you subdued in Changle Village.
But then he remembered that Chao Mu and Jiang Hanting were both present when the little boss subdued the spirit of the law.If he said it directly, wouldn't that expose the real identity of the little boss?
So Nanshan stopped talking in time.
Dong Li seemed to have a good heart with him, and could hear what he hadn't finished speaking, and nodded slightly, "But it's not a thing, I'll explain it to you later."
Nanshan didn't expect that he didn't say anything, the little boss understood what he meant, and nodded with a bright smile, "Mmmmmm."
Then he asked with some concern, "Then what should we do now? Were the souls of the more than 3000 people eaten by that thing? Can't they be saved?"
What Nanshan is worried about is, if the soul is lost in the game, can people wake up in reality?
He has vaguely understood some things now. If those people can't wake up in reality and cause such a large number of casualties, how should the game official explain to the general public?
Will this game be forced to shut down?
If the game is forced to stop, can he still meet the little boss?
Dongli pondered for a while, "Judging from the breath left by that thing, its level will not be too high, and it won't consume so much soul energy in half a year. As long as you catch that thing, the more than 3000 people should still be saved .It’s just that those who have been in a coma for a longer time may lose some sanity.”
"Losing some sanity?" Nanshan frowned and asked, "Are you becoming stupid?"
If so many people become stupid playing the game, it will be regarded as a major casualty event, and it is not good.
Dongli nodded slightly.
Seeing this, Nanshan hurriedly asked again, "Is it possible to recover after becoming stupid?"
"Yes." Dongli knew, "The soul is incomplete, and you can cultivate or weave the soul. But this secret method..."
Dong Li said, looking at Long Jiu.
Because this secret method is a divine technique, only the God Realm has it, and only divine power can do it.
Long Jiu nodded, "I...we have it, and I will too. If you wait...you can wake up those people. If there are some people with broken spirits, I can help repair them."
"Great!" Nan Shan looked at Long Jiu adoringly, almost as if he was a savior, "Brother Jiu, you are really a great Bodhisattva who saves the suffering and saves the common people!"
Long Jiu was funny, and after getting along for a while, he probably understood Nanshan's temperament, "Go ahead, if you want me to work, you can just say compliments."
Nanshan, who had been seen through, smiled embarrassedly, "Hey, hey", "Even if it's a compliment, it's my sincerity, okay?! Saving thousands of lives! What a merit! From now on, Brother Nine, you are My idol!"
Long Jiu was too lazy to listen to his flickering flattery, "That also requires you to find the souls of those unconscious people first, and wake them up."
Nanshan immediately asked Dongli when he heard the words, "Before you said, did that thing escape? Where will it escape? How do we catch that thing? Do you have a way?"
"Yes." Dong Li turned his hand and took out a stack of talismans to him, "That thing already has a human breath, and it is very likely that it will be hidden in someone's soul, so it will be difficult to detect."
As he spoke, he glanced at Dizzy Drunk and the others, "That thing is very cunning, take the talisman, and try to stick it on everyone without a trace. If it is there, it will be sucked into this talisman Then you quickly bring it back to me, and I can release the undigested spirit that has been swallowed up by it."
"Oh." Nanshan took the talisman, and immediately shared two with Hua Zuike and the others, "Then this job is a big project! What if it goes to other places? The world is so big and there are so many people ! Do you want to mobilize more people to look for it?"
Dong Li shook his head, "Don't scare the snake. You five are now, I can be sure that it is not hidden by that thing, but what if someone else has it? If you tell others, it is very likely that it will hear the wind."
Even in this inn room, he habitually sealed off the area as soon as he entered, so as not to be overheard.
"Besides, Yan Qing, who signed the contract with it, is still here. It should not be willing to go far before it has no other choice. Therefore, you should catch it as soon as possible. Otherwise, wait until it goes far away and leaves Haotian City , then it’s really a needle in a haystack.”
It can be said that if that thing no longer does evil, it is almost difficult to find its trace.
Hua Zuike immediately stood up and said, "Then let's go now! Don't let it get away!"
The others all nodded and stood up with slightly dignified expressions.
Seeing that they were all going out, Dongli explained, "Remember! When the talisman sticks to people, it must not leave a trace, don't let that thing be noticed, and it must stick to the skin of the person to be more effective."
Because most monks' cassocks have the function of protection and isolation.
"Okay!" Nanshan also pulled Taichu up, "I'll stop by and order the restaurants that open for food and build pavilions."
Anyway, when they went out, they were aimlessly looking for a needle in a haystack, so it's better to take care of the food repair pavilion by the way.
Dongli nodded in agreement, "Go."
Then the five of them left in a hurry with a system, leaving only Long Jiu to smile and praise Dong Li, "Brother Li is really good at it, even the formation of the art of capturing evil souls can be set in a small area." in the talisman."
Dong Li smiled modestly, "In the past, my stupid brother didn't do his job properly, and liked to delve into some rare and elegant gadgets, but Brother Jiu laughed at him."
But Long Jiu shook his head appreciatively, "Brother Li, don't be modest! Maybe it's your many ideas and creativity that created your way of law."
"Speaking of creativity." Dongli admired the people from the planet Earth, got up and invited, "Brother Ninth came to the human world for the first time, do you want to walk around? The wisdom of these people from the planet Earth and some of their creations are really impressive Wow."
"Oh?" Long Jiu raised his eyebrows with interest, "Then I will be guided by Brother Lao Li."
"It's my honor." Dong Li said and invited out, "Please."
Long Jiu nodded slightly, and stepped out of the room.
Just came to the street, and after walking not far, Long Jiu sensed the aura of that evil thing, and immediately understood Dong Li's intentions, and suddenly laughed, "Brother Li wants to help brother, just to put it bluntly, Why be so tactful?"
Dong Li was not surprised that Long Jiu would see his intentions, and bowed his hands in embarrassment to plead guilty, "How dare you use a sledgehammer to kill a chicken? How dare you work Brother Jiu for a mere evil thing? That's too much for him. I don't dare to have it." To humiliate Brother Nine's Dragon God. However, Nanshan and the others are afraid that there is nothing they can do, so they have no choice but to resort to this plan."
In this way, they were just walking on the road, and when the evil thing bumped into them, it was a simple effort to do it, it was not like asking the majestic dragon god to catch a small evil thing.
After all, if Long Jiu's spiritual consciousness spread out, as long as the evil thing is in this middle world, there will be nowhere to hide.
Moreover, Dong Li didn't know if the Dragon God intervened in the affairs of the human world, whether it would be considered cross-border interference, and whether it would affect Long Jiu.
If Long Jiu just happened to "do what is right" or "draw a sword to help" by accident, then it should not be counted.
So Dongli said that this is the worst policy, but it is actually the best policy to act well.
"It doesn't matter." Long Jiu shook his head indifferently, and then grabbed it casually in the air. A black light seemed to be accompanied by a scream, and he was directly sucked into the palm of his hand from an unknown distance and grabbed it. , handed it to Dongli, "Here."
Dongli quickly took it with both hands, and thanked him sincerely, "Thank you Brother Nine!"
"You are enthusiastic." Long Jiu actually didn't intend to intervene, because, "This is the man-made cause, and they should bear the consequences. No matter how heavy the casualties are, they should suffer."
"I don't want to be enthusiastic." Dongli shook his head slightly, took out the talisman to seal the evil thing in, and then put it away, "It's those people, I'm afraid they can't catch this evil thing at all."
In that case, the Earthlings would lose too much, and they might really shut down the game.
If that's the case, there will be no human beings in the Three Realms, and the way of the law will not be easy to cultivate.
For this, Long Jiu nodded in agreement.Ever since he entered the human world, he has noticed, "Those fake human beings don't seem to have really entered the Tao. Those golden core bodies don't even have the traces and breath of thunder calamity."
Dong Li nodded, and invited Long Jiu to continue walking around, "Indeed not. They are not recognized by the biological laws here, and they are not recognized as a kind of creature."
Long Jiu raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Since that's the case, how did Brother Shan do it? His Golden Elixir seems to have the Law of Nine Thunder Tribulations attached to him."
Speaking of this, Dongli said with a guilty conscience, "It was the foolish brother who made a small plan to hide the sky and cross the sea, so that the biological law reluctantly recognized it, so he was able to overcome the calamity and form the alchemy."
Hearing this, Long Jiu was surprised, and then couldn't help laughing "haha", "No wonder Brother Li can cultivate the way of the law, and he can take advantage of the loopholes of the law. If it knew, it would blow its beard and stare with anger."
"Ninth brother, don't laugh at it. Brother Yu has no choice but to do it." Dong Li also pursed his lips and smiled, and jokingly begged for mercy, "Ninth brother, please don't file a complaint."
"This is your great talent, it's really wonderful!" Long Jiu waved his hands without any hesitation, not only admiring him, but also gloating over his misfortune, "The Dao of Heaven can't beat you, it deserves to be sulky!"
Dong Li doesn't think he has taken advantage of the loopholes in the law, which is something to be proud of, "I heard Brother Jiu say that Brother Shan pretends to be a real person, and it is not appropriate after all. Brother Yu doesn't know, so I ask Brother Jiu to give me some advice. OK?"
Long Jiu looked around the shops on both sides of the street with great interest, "A fake is a fake after all, it can't be true. You can hide it for a while, but you can't hide it forever. When Brother Shan crosses the catastrophe and ascends in the future, the law of heaven may have to count The ledger is over."
Dongli felt relieved when he heard that, "That's okay. After he transforms into a god, I will try my best to reshape his real body."
Dongli had no intention of letting Nanshan use this game account to practice until the end.After all, this game account is always monitored by the mastermind, so it is inappropriate to do anything.
Long Jiu nodded unsurprisingly, "I think you have the same method."
That's why he didn't comment much before.
The two were on the street, chatting and laughing happily while strolling, and unexpectedly met Nanshan and Taichu who had hurried back, "Ah Li! The food repair pavilion is done!"
Dong Li was a little surprised, "Is it done so quickly?"
Nanshan nodded with a bright smile, "They seem to be waiting for you to open a store. I took Taichuyi there, and they immediately took out several buildings for us to choose. Once the selection is completed, the procedure will be completed in less than 10 minutes."
"I went to see it just now. It's a five-story building with a very large area. The decoration is good. It's the same as Yong'an City. We can open for business after hanging a sign." After Nanshan said excitedly, he asked , "Do you want to go see it now?"
Dong Li looked at Long Jiu, "Does Brother Jiu want to go and have a look?"
If he had no intention, they'd better send Long Jiu back to the inn first.If Long Jiu is allowed to wander alone on the road, in case of a conflict with someone, it will be a lot of fun.
Long Jiu didn't care, he just looked around the human world anyway, "Yes."
Then the group of people immediately turned around and walked towards the restaurant.
Nanshan is active in his work, "Should I post the recruitment information on the Internet now and recruit employees to come for interviews? If we can get the employees done today, then we can open the business tomorrow."
Dongli is also a vigorous and decisive person, he doesn't like to procrastinate when doing things, "Yes."
On the contrary, Long Jiu looked curiously, "Is it so simple and fast to open a shop in the human world? Your venue, supply of goods, and labor are all done? If you want to open a restaurant, don't you need a special chef?"
As far as he knew, his two stupid younger brothers didn't seem to have bought anything, right?
what to do?Long Jiu secretly felt a little worried: The younger brother who has just been accepted, seems a bit silly.
Dongli smiled mysteriously, "Brother Jiu will find out when he goes to have a look."
This made Long Jiu curious, and when he went to the restaurant, he saw Dong Li's "smart kitchen" in the back kitchen, and after understanding its function, he called out novelty, "There is such a strange thing? ! Can cook automatically? It’s unheard of!”
"This is a magic weapon that I refined based on the ideas of the people on Earth." Dong Li also sighed, "I was also very surprised when I saw this thing for the first time."
"Wonderful!" Long Jiu clapped his palms and praised, and was very interested when he was done, his eyes were bright and he was not polite to Dong Li at all, "Brother Li will have free time in the future, can you make a copy for my brother?" This strange thing? He will wait for me to go back, but there must be a strange thing to show off."
Dongli smiled, "Of course. It's just that this smart kitchen can't refine food that can be refined by food cultivation. So the food sold in the food cultivation pavilion is all refined by me in the beginning. If Brother Nine wants to cultivate gourmet food, would you mind if I set up a teleportation circle connected to the beginning of time in the refined smart kitchen?"
"Why not?" Long Jiu didn't mind at all, but, "Could the teleportation ability in the beginning be able to break the boundary?"
In the beginning, it was an artifact, this Long Jiu knew it.Because when Taichu first came out to act, he saw the golden light of the artifact on Taichu's body at a glance.
This Dongli is not too clear, "Small boundaries can be crossed."
Because before, when he went to the Demon Realm and the Spirit Realm, in the beginning, he could still deliver food, elixirs, etc. to the Shixiu Pavilion in the Middle Realm, and he could also receive various refining materials that were automatically purchased.
I just don't know, "I don't know if it's feasible to cross the big world."
"If it's feasible," Long Jiu pondered, "then even if I return to the God Realm in the future, wouldn't I still be able to communicate with the two virtuous brothers?"
Thinking of this, Long Jiu was very happy, "At that time, brother Li can use ingredients from the God Realm to refine gourmet food. If the two virtuous brothers need anything from the God Realm, I can send it for you!"
Dong Li's eyes lit up when he heard it, isn't this the communication with the God Realm? !
If it is really feasible, there are many benefits!All the refining materials in the God Realm,
