Chapter 31:
The sleepiness of the winter solstice was completely frightened away, and he said, "How did you get in!"
Kan Chaosheng: "You forgot to lock the door yourself. I knocked on the door and didn't answer. It opened as soon as I opened it!"
The winter solstice snorted, scratched his hair, and got up: "There are small dried fish in the drawer, you can take it yourself."
Kan Chaosheng rolled his eyes and said with disdain, "I'm not a cat essence, what small fish do I eat!"
Winter Solstice said casually: "Is that a tiger spirit?"
Kan Chaosheng said angrily, "You are a tiger spirit, and your whole family is a tiger spirit! Lao Tzu is very imposing, how could he be such a low-level monster as a tiger spirit!"
Seeing him go mad at the winter solstice, he suppressed his laughter and asked humbly, "Then what is your body?"
Watching Chaosheng raised his chin: "Guess!"
Winter Solstice said: "Your name is related to water, your body should also be a creature in water, and you like to eat very much, but He Yu said that you are not a gluttonous eater, that is a sea turtle? Giant salamander? Golden toad? Dragon? Well...or Is it Jiao?"
He quickly got the answer from the change in the other party's expression, Dongzhi said in surprise: "Is it really a Jiao?"
Kan Chaosheng snorted and arrogantly did not answer.
A dragon with horns is a dragon, and a dragon without horns. It is said that the dragon is a dragon before the calamity, and its power is inferior to that of the dragon. That legend is a legend after all. The existence of this kind of creature is as ethereal as a dragon and has never been confirmed existed.
Not answering is the default, and the Winter Solstice wows: "Is there really a Jiao in the world?"
Seeing Chaosheng displeased: "You've even seen a dragon, so what's there to question?"
Winter Solstice said with a smile: "But after all, that's not a living dragon, but you are a living legend. I have to look at it a few more times and return to the original!"
Looking at Chaosheng, he has a little temper, but he is very easy to get along with. As long as he feeds and smoothes his hair, he is basically unhappy after a hundred attempts. The winter solstice has now touched the thread.
Sure enough, there was a suspicious red touch on the other party's face, and he was a little proud.
Winter Solstice asked curiously, "Then why do you usually become a cat?"
Kan Chaosheng: "Cut, my body is released, this floor is not enough, and turning into a cat can reduce the vigilance of humans. Don't you all like weak animals?"
Winter Solstice: "Won't the combat effectiveness be weakened? If you transform your body on Changbai Mountain, it should be very powerful, right?"
Kan Chaosheng pouted: "That place is a scenic spot, and it's enough to toss one-stop, I'll change shape again, and then it will be dark and dark, and I will go back and clean up the mess, and every department will ask us to settle accounts!"
That's right, Winter Solstice nodded and was persuaded.
But in fact, the real reason is that Jiao, in front of the real dragon, will inevitably have some psychological obstacles, even if it is just a bone dragon, but these words of weakness will definitely not be said by Chaosheng.
"Get up quickly!" he said in a vicious voice, "Boss asked me to take you to the top floor to practice!"
Winter Solstice: "You tell me how to go, I'll just go by myself, go and do your own thing."
Seeing Chaosheng blowing air from his nostrils, he said impatiently, "You need to swipe your card to get in. You haven't joined the job yet, how do you get in?"
The winter solstice innocently said: "But I haven't had breakfast yet, let's go together. I know there is a Cantonese dim sum teahouse nearby, and his family's rice rolls are hand-made, just like those in the old city of Guangzhou, with thin skin and lots of stuffing. delicious."
Seeing Chaosheng's eyes immediately became bright, and he barely pricked up his ears.
It's a pity that it's not a big yellow cat now, otherwise, it can be smoothed, and it's a pity for the winter solstice.
After breakfast, the two returned to the Special Administration Bureau and watched Chaosheng take the winter solstice straight to the top floor. The stairs on the thirty-second floor climbed to the winter solstice and almost doubted life.
"Has no one ever complained about the lack of an elevator? Am I the only one who crawls to death? Didn't He Yu say that there are ordinary logisticians here too!"
Kan Chaosheng: "Yes, there are many every year."
Winter Solstice: "Then they didn't report the situation to the above?"
Kan Chaosheng: "In the end, they all transferred their posts and said that they would rather go to Guoan than come here. But every year, fools like you are tricked in, so it doesn't matter."
The winter solstice is unrequited.
Kan Chaosheng said: "Didn't you learn breathing kung fu from the Hezao School? Climbing the stairs every day is one of the training courses."
The winter solstice subconsciously regarded himself as an ordinary person, and when he heard Kan Chaosheng's words, he suddenly realized that he had stepped into the ranks of cultivators with one foot. He was busy following the way of the Hezao sect, slowing his breath while climbing the stairs, and paying attention. Once it's not on the legs, the distance seems to become less long.
The two came to the top floor, and the door to the rooftop was tightly closed.
Kan Chaosheng took out his badge, tapped the card machine on the wall, and pushed open the door.
"Come in."
The eyes are bright.
Winter Solstice thought that what he saw would be the rooftop of an ordinary commercial building, but he soon discovered that his imagination was too barren.
A step through that door is a leap from the real world to the glazed illusion.
The green grass is shady, the waterfall splashes beads, the vegetation is beautiful, and the streams and rocks are scattered.
Looking around, it is vast and boundless, and I do not know where is the end.
In the steel jungle of modern cities, it is hard to see such a natural scene, not to mention that they are now in the center of Beijing.
Could it be that they have traveled through space and time and came to another world?
Winter Solstice exclaimed: "Are we still in Beijing?"
Looking at Chaosheng, he said: "Of course, it's rare and strange! This is just an enchantment technique."
Winter Solstice: "Is it an illusion?"
Kan Chaosheng: "No, in your words, it is to expand and extend the limited space infinitely."
On the winter solstice, he walked to the river, bent down, picked up the water, and the water slid between his fingers.
These feelings are all too real.
Solstice asked: "Will everyone practice here?"
Kan Chaosheng: "There are several areas here, one group, two groups, and three groups, each with its own different space, don't worry about accidental injury, I'm a member of the second group, and naturally I can only play the two cards. The venue for the group. The best thing here is that although there is an enchantment that separates us from our usual world, the spiritual energy is still connected, so the effect of cultivation is the same, for example, Yunlai!"
He beckoned to the sky, and a dark cloud drifted silently over their heads.
"Rainfall." Kan Chaosheng said.
The pouring rain slammed down, but it was limited to the place above the head of the winter solstice. As soon as he raised his head, he was instantly poured all over his face.
winter solstice:……
Watch Chaosheng laugh.
Winter Solstice was expressionless: "Spit out all the rice rolls for me."
Watching Chaosheng make a face at him: "Hurry up and practice, I will supervise you today!"
The winter solstice saw his intentions at a glance, and sighed: "You want to wait for me to have dinner, right? I wanted to take you to grilled fish at night, but now my enthusiasm has been completely extinguished by you."
Watching Chaosheng blink, his attitude changed freely: "How about I help you cultivate? If you can attract Tianlei today, invite me to eat grilled fish at night."
Winter Solstice: "How to help?"
Kan Chaosheng: "It's good to help you repair the runes. Every time you use the runes, you will burn them out, but here, the items can be restored, so you can recycle them, and you don't have to waste extra time to draw runes."
Solstice: "Okay, deal."
Long Shen taught him the correct posture of holding a sword to attract thunder. He has a good memory on the winter solstice, the movements are accurate, and the spells are memorized very skillfully. Although the runes were written by him, they were also certified by He Yu. He has a certificate, but no matter how he practices, there is no movement on the top of his head.
After the talisman caught fire, it fluttered in the air and fell to the ground, and it did not have the prestige when it caused thunder in Hezao Mountain.
This situation is actually quite normal. The old master also said that He Yu can attract Tianlei within a month. He can already be said to be a genius. He can succeed in the first test overnight. The power is unpredictable. The stronger the ability, the higher the success rate. Even if it is Zhang Daoling and Tao Hongjing, a rare expert in the world, it is impossible to draw out the thunder.
He did not lose heart at the winter solstice. He tried again and again. For a whole morning, after the talisman was cremated and turned to ashes, he was restored by Chaosheng. He only needed two talismans to practice in turn. Watching Chaosheng sitting on a branch and eating nuts, After a while there was a small pile of nut tips under the tree.
"You can't do it this way, He Yu is not so neat!"
"Hurry up when reciting the incantation, really fight the enemy, no one has time to wait for you to finish reciting the incantation!"
"Oh, you didn't eat, did you, you have to be lucky when you take the sword!"
In the interval between eating snacks, watching Chaosheng still didn't forget to chirp, pointing out the country next to him.
"Idiot, the tip of the sword should point up! Up!" Kan Chaosheng shouted inarticulately with snacks in his mouth.
The winter solstice said to himself: "Dinner is ready, what should I have for supper, hairy crab or crayfish?"
Watching Chaosheng's face change is faster than turning over a book: "To be honest, this is the first time I have seen a talent like you with extraordinary talent and skeletons, it is a waste not to practice magic, the General Administration needs you, the country needs you, the people The people need you!"
Winter Solstice laughed, stopped bickering with him, and began to concentrate on practicing.
It will be disturbed at first, but gradually, when he is fully immersed in it, the noise outside his body has been completely ignored. Although there is no progress for the time being, his mood has completely calmed down, and he is no longer easily affected by foreign objects. Influence.
Long Shen swiped his card to open the door, and brought the people behind him to the rooftop.
In the distance, the figure of the winter solstice standing by the stream and practicing magic came into their eyes.
The two stood for a while, and Wu Bingtian jokingly said, "Do you want this kind of kid too? It seems that the second group is becoming less and less selective."
There was a bit of ridicule and a bit of ridicule at these words, but Long Shen just pretended he couldn't hear it, and walked over with Wu Bingtian.
"Boss!" Kan Chao found them first, clapped his hands, and jumped down from the tree.
When the winter solstice heard the sound, he turned his head and nodded politely.
Long Shen said to him, "This is Bureau Wu. He wants to know more about your situation in Tianyuan Building that day."
Wu Bingtian smiled slightly. At first glance, he seemed approachable, but there was a sense of distance: "He Yu, Tang Jing and others, we have asked, but different people may have different findings. The comprehensive situation will help us fill in the gaps."
He Yu heard from the winter solstice that there are three deputy directors in the bureau, and they lead three teams of the general bureau. This deputy director Wu must be the team leader of the special management bureau team.
In all fairness, although Wu Bingtian's appearance is not as high as that of Long Shen, he is not bad.
The existence of human beings and demons must be very important to the Special Administration Bureau, otherwise they would not be so serious, and they even dispatched two deputy directors to question them in person.
Realizing this, the Winter Solstice did not dare to be careless, and carefully recalled the process of getting to know Xu Wan, as well as the situation on Tianyuan Building, and briefly described it again.
He couldn't get any clues from him, but Wu Bingtian still listened carefully, nodded at the end, and said nothing, let him continue practicing, turned around and left with Long Shen.
As a result, as soon as they reached the exit of the barrier, they heard a muffled rumbling overhead.
The two raised their heads, with dark clouds above their heads, and gathered towards the winter solstice at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In the clouds, the light swept past, and a lightning bolt thick as a python suddenly fell!
Seeing Chaosheng screaming, he fled from under the tree at the speed of light. Because he was too anxious, he ran halfway and turned into a cat, and a few jumped to the side of the stream.
In the next second, the thunder and lightning were slicing on the tree he had just perched on, directly slicing the whole tree in half from the middle.
With a bang, half of the tree smashed to the ground, just covering the pile of nut shells that Chi Chao had eaten raw.
The big yellow cat was very angry, and the whole body stood up directly, showing its teeth and claws toward the winter solstice: "Meow meow meow meow meow?!"
"...I don't understand." For the first time, he knew that the cat could still make a melodious meow.
The big yellow cat bared its teeth and jumped on the spot twice, the light spots condensed, and it returned to the appearance of watching Chaosheng.
"You want to make money and kill yourself?!"
Winter Solstice said innocently: "I didn't know I would hit that tree."
Long Shen and Wu Bingtian didn't look much, they left the barrier and went down from the rooftop.
Wu Bingtian said: "We plan to expand the search range in the place where the murals were found last time, to see if we can find the stone tablet."
Long Shen nodded: "Then Inner Mongolia will be handed over to you, and I will also let the people from the Northeast Branch continue to search around Changbai Mountain."
Wu Bingtian sighed: "Our country is really too big, it's impossible to dig three feet in one inch, but now I hope that the devil will come out and do something, so that we can follow his trail, first. Find the stele in one step. But then again, do you think the demons are going to take the stele, or do you want to destroy the stele?"
Long Shen said: "If the stone tablet is really part of the talisman formation, his purpose is most likely the latter. However, it is still unknown what the purpose of this talisman formation is."
Wu Bingtian: "I have asked the above to send documents to various sects to assist in finding information. Maybe I can find clues related to the stone tablet, but don't hold out too much hope. Zhang Lao said that the runes on the stone tablet are extremely ancient, and the dragon and tiger mountains have been turned over. Looking for relevant information, I have not found it for the time being.”
He said this, naturally, hoping to exchange information with Long Shen.
Long Shen was silent for a moment, and said, "I asked He Yuhui to ask the Zao faction. The head of Xin said that the stone tablet talisman may have been formed before the Ming and Qing dynasties."
Isn't this nonsense, with the ability of Longhu Mountain, how can you not know that Fu Lu was before the Ming and Qing dynasties?
Wu Bingtian was unavoidably disappointed, but on second thought, the Hezao sect had declined since the Qing Dynasty, and several turmoils had destroyed the classics.
"I am afraid there will be a follow-up to the matter of the stone tablet. The second group is still too small. I hope the Dragon Bureau can recruit a few more this year. It is a good thing to cherish feathers. It is too lofty, but it will be misunderstood!" .
Long Shen said lightly, "Didn't Bureau Wu see one just now?"
Depend on!
It's okay not to mention this, but when I mention Wu Bingtian, I want to scold my mother.
Just now, he followed Long Shen to the rooftop, and saw the winter solstice practicing lightning tricks there. At first, he didn't pay attention to the other party at all. His eyes are so vicious, he can tell at a glance that he is a novice, such a novice, let alone admitted to the General Bureau, even if he wants to worship Longhushan, Longhushan has to think about it. Who would have thought that not long after he finished laughing at Long Shen, a thunderstorm slammed down and hit him in the face, and it wasn't the kind of petty prank, it was enough to show off his power.
Wu Bingtian had no choice but to pretend that he hadn't said that sentence. Who knew that he wanted to laugh at the other party, but he was pulled in pain.
He made a haha: "Long Ju is really smart, how come I didn't find such a good quality newcomer before!"
Long Shen hummed.
Wu Bingtian: …
Hmm, your head, ahhh, when you turn around, I'll grab the person you fancy, and see if you can pretend to be deep, ha ha!
The Winter Solstice didn't know what Long Shen and Wu Bingtian thought of him. At this time, he was immersed in the great joy of his success again.
After Long Shen and the others left, he practiced more than a dozen times. Two times, he used a small thunderbolt the size of his thumb, which was not as frightening as the first time, but this success rate just shows that he has made great progress. You must know that even He Yu, it is said that one month after he successfully attracted the thunder, he never succeeded again.
In order to reward Kan Chaosheng for helping him restore runes all day, the winter solstice called He Yu and invited them to a feast of crab and crayfish. It was almost midnight, and the three of them went back with their rounded belly.
I can't sleep because I eat too much, and I can't help but get excited when I recall the thunderstorm today.
Before that, he had never imagined that, as an ordinary otaku, he had lived an ordinary life for more than 20 years, and one day he would be able to step into a fantastic and mysterious new world with his own abilities.
The victory in the first battle made the whole body of the Winter Solstice full of motivation.
Picking up his mobile phone and shopping around, he wanted to send a message to Long Shen, but he felt too disturbed. Today, the other party and Bureau Wu came to ask questions in person. It must be because the matter of the stele is very important to them. Long Shen should now He was so busy that he couldn't care about anything else.
After thinking about it, I opened the shopping website on the winter solstice and bought some daily necessities for myself.
I bought another bunch of self-heating hot pot, this is for the foodie Kan Chaosheng.
I also bought a beautiful three-dimensional mouse pad and a bear backpack from the island country. This is for He Yu, the yellow otaku.
Since they were on the train, they have helped themselves a lot. Although one is cheap and gluttonous, and the other is inattentive at all times except for subduing demons, they regard them as brothers and friends in the early winter solstice, and do not feel that they often invite meals. It's a loss, and even when they buy things, they often bring a copy for them.
But when he arrived at Longshen, he was in a bit of trouble.
What do men like?
Enter keywords, antiques, famous swords on the winter solstice.
The price that came out made him gasp.
The Dong family's family background is quite good. After the death of his parents, he left him a legacy. In addition, the art salary in the game industry is relatively considerable. It can be said that he has no worries about food and clothing, but even so, these The price of the sword also made him unable to afford it, not to mention that he did not know how to distinguish the true from the false.
After staring at the computer for a while, he turned on his phone and found his friend who was studying abroad.
It was daytime over there, and the old friend quickly replied: Yo, you finally remembered me! What are you doing now?
Winter Solstice: Resigned, preparing to take the civil service exam. Brother, I have a question for you.
Old friend: If you have a fart, let it go!
Winter Solstice: I have a friend who wants to give a gift to someone. He has a good impression of this person, but he is not sure if it is the kind of love. What do you think is better?
Old friend: That friend is you, right?
winter solstice:……
The old friend immediately sent a series of expressions to laugh at him.
Old friend: You fell in love as soon as I broke up, and you lost your conscience! Send me the pics to see!
Winter Solstice Helpless: Without the photos, I said I was not sure how I felt about him, so I asked you to analyze it.
Friend: Him? ? ? male? ? ?
When the winter solstice slipped, I didn't expect the other party to be so careful, and suddenly hesitated whether to tell the truth.
But the old friend immediately sent a message: I have long seen that you are a crooked kid, or else why haven't you been in love for more than 20 years!
Winter Solstice is very unconvinced: I also had a good impression of girls, okay?
Friend: That's elementary school. It's okay, don't talk about men and men now, there are both human beings and asexuals, my brother is well-informed, and my brother is very calm.
Winter Solstice: ... All in all, this person is very good, and he looks good. Aside from the question of whether he likes him or not, he has also helped me a lot. I want to thank him, what can I give?
Friend: Money!
winter solstice:……
Old friend: money is the most real! You just give him a red envelope of 520 yuan, and you can test his heart and thank you. Isn't it killing two birds with one stone?
Winter Solstice: Forget it, let’s talk about why you have lost your love.
He listened to his friend complaining about how bad his girlfriend was an hour ago, and finally comforted her.
After hanging up the phone, Winter Solstice picked up the picture album and turned to the half-portrait painting that had been unfinished on the train before.
A profile with a slightly bowed head is outlined above, as if listening and thinking, the expression is always indifferent and calm, only the eyes are blank.
At that time, I just met on the train for the first time. Dongzhi didn't know much about Long Shen at all. He was in a hurry and was only impressed by his appearance, but his eyes were the windows to the soul, so he couldn't draw each other's eyes, so he kept it. White.
After watching it for a while, the Winter Solstice finally did not choose to fill in the eyes, but turned the page again and sketched a few cartoon characters with pencils at will.
Sitting on the sleeper, watching Chaosheng with his short legs dangling and snacks in his mouth.
He Yu was obsessed with holding the phone all day long.
Zhong Yuyi was sleepwalking with his hands in his pockets.
Long Shen, holding the sword with a cool face.
There is also the self who is working hard to practice the Five Thunders Fa-rectification, and finally attracts Tianlei, but it hits Kanchaosheng's head.
