Chapter 461 Troubled Times
Shi Qi smiled strangely. Although he didn't say it clearly, everyone understood what he meant.
If the person who is teleported to this lake is a wanted criminal from the Special Affairs Bureau, or a hostile force that has come to the King of Shengnan,
Then the bounty hunter in front of him may not mind earning a bounty on site.
"Okay, let's not talk about it,"
Shi Qi cleared his throat and looked at Li Ang and the other two standing behind Xing Hechou, "These are..."
"companion,"
Xing Hechou said concisely: "You can trust."
"Um."
Shi Qi smiled gently at Li Ang and others when he heard this. As the corners of his mouth were pulled, the flesh on his face fell again.
He tskated, simply pulled the skin off his back, held it in his hand, and spoke up to introduce their experience.
As a live bounty hunter of the Qu City Special Affairs Bureau, Shiqi met Xun Zi'an, the leader of the sixth team of the Yin City Mobile Task Force, Chu Yin, and Zhu Xuemin, a monk from the Second Society, after teleportation into the dream of Shengnan King, one after another.
The four of them have official backgrounds. After a little bit of work, they formed a temporary team, with Xun Zi'an as the captain, and continued to explore the third level of the Dream of Botany of the Southern King.
Then, the four of them followed the pocket watch's instructions to find the entrance.
Like Xing Hechou and others, they worked a lot of effort to break the seal at the entrance and enter the second level of the Dream of Shengnan King.
By chance, the wife of the governor of Chenzhou who went up the mountain to the temple to pray for blessings but was attacked by demons.
In the name of a monk from the outside, he sneaked into Chenzhou City and became a guest at the governor's mansion.
"The second level of the dream of the Southern King is far more orderly than the third level.
The court is prominent, the monks and Taoists in temples, the rich merchants and the heads of Guizhou, the alchemist monks, the monsters and demons, the underworld, all available,
It doesn’t look like a collection of chaotic weird stories, but it looks like a complete and complete small world..."
Shiqi said solemnly: "The background of the world is superficial, a bit like a combination of the late Tang and late Ming dynasties,
The court was weak and weak, the local vassal states were separatist, and rebellion and mutiny were one after another.
The Central Plains region can barely maintain stability.
Out of the Central Plains, earthquakes, famines, plagues, floods, droughts and locust plagues have been staged one after another,
The hungry people are everywhere, the floating corpses are circulating, the people change their sons to eat each other,
Demons and monsters, demons and monsters are rampant.
You can imagine this world as a tragic version of "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" and "Youyang Miscellaneous Zu",
Or the movie version of "A Chinese Ghost Story".
Xing He was stunned, "So bad?"
“It’s just that bad.”
Shiqi nodded and said, "In addition to the imperial government army, the upright forces are divided into the following stocks,
Wudewei, led by the court, was responsible for arresting demons and evil cultivators from all over the world, guarding various states, counties and counties.
Zen Buddhism is a loose alliance composed of five thousand-year-old temples, including Minguang Temple and Nanchan Temple.
The Tianshidao of Longhu Mountain was respected by the imperial court as the superior sect and guarded the demon-refining cave for generations."
Xing He frowned, "Wait, Demon Refining Cave?"
"It's a bit like, but not the prison cave in our real world."
Shiqi hurriedly explained: "This demon-refining cave that covers the world is built by the Tianshidao of Longhu Mountain and is specially used to trap demons.
Use demons as materials to refine weapons and provide them to the military guards.
Decent monks and military officers will have a few spells, which are equivalent to the skills of our players.
As for strength, it is both strong and weak, but they are all weird and difficult to measure.
And the villain,
First, demons and evil spirits from all over the world,
Second, there are idle cultivators who are good at using evil magic and magic.
It is the White Lotus Sect. This is a secret society, and it also masters magic. It is good at using demonic techniques to deceive the public and make misconduct. It has great power and a wide influence. It is repeatedly encircled and suppressed, but it is like a hundred-legged insect that dies without being dead. Life continues to stop, and rebellion continues."
Shi Qi seemed to notice the expression on Xing Hechou's face, and stopped as he spoke, and smiled and said, "Isn't it incredible?"
“Some.”
Xing Hechou nodded and said, "You shouldn't have such great ability to live in the South."
"really."
Shiqi sighed and said, "A thought is born into the world,
I'm afraid even the immortal species in myths and legends - the mirage dragon that flies into the sky and lies dormant on the moon.
King Shengnan is just a strange existence born from collecting the mind power of sentient beings in the real world.
Even if His dream is strange and changeable, it should not have such a vast, profound and complex background.”
Shiqi's eyes were filled with light, "We have not found the answer to this point yet.
But in the past few days, Zhu Xuemin and Zhu monk rely on his profound background,
Let’s sit and discuss Taoism with those monks who value respecting Taoism, unity of man and nature, and living and saving the world.
Combining the talisman rituals of the alien society and the unique magic techniques of this world, a set of divination rituals was deduced.
Not only did I tell the divination and found other entrance locations, I asked me to come and answer.
He also found out that the most critical abnormal event in the second floor of the Dream of King Shengnan was around Chenzhou City.”
"Just like from the third layer to the second layer, do abnormal events also need to be resolved from the second layer to the first layer?"
Xing Hechou nodded, "Where is Chenzhou City?"
"You are now located in the south of Luzhou City. Chenzhou is five hundred kilometers away from the northeast of Luzhou City."
Shiqi said: "Comrade Zhu Xuemin only speculated that abnormal events would occur near Chenzhou City.
As for how exactly it will happen and how it ends,
I don't know yet.
In addition, he also guessed through divination that this abnormal event would be related to three elements.
These three elements are in Luzhou, Fengzhou and Qizhou.
Captain Xun Zi'an has already moved forward to Qizhou. If you have time, you can go to Luzhou with me to collect information first..."
Before he finished speaking, Shi Qi's face changed suddenly, and he vomited a mouthful of blood, and his muscles and bones trembled all over his body.
Damn, why did you spit blood as you said?
Xing Hechou subconsciously took out emergency medicine from the backpack bar and was about to rescue Shiqi, but saw Shiqi barely standing with a tree and said with difficulty: "No, the medicine will not work.
My true body in Chenzhou was disturbed, and this external puppet was about to disintegrate on its own.
Come, take it.”
Shiqi raised his black nails, cut open his chest again, and took out a thick stack of paper.
He handed it to Xing Hechou with the iron token of Xun Zi'an.
"The paper contains the information we have collected over the past few days, as well as a map near Luzhou.
When my external puppet skills have cooled down, I will use this iron piece to create a puppet and contact you again..."
Shiqi's skin on the surface of his body continued to peel off, and his whole body slowly collapsed like a bone was pulled away. When he finished his last sentence,
It has dissolved into a pool of red and black material that constantly bubbles.
Chapter completed!
