Chapter 80
"Watch your head!"
Gu Qingming showed his fierce side, flipped the snake-shaped carving in his hand, and the long spear was firmly held in his hand.
Luo Dong was surprised. Even when he was a child, he had never seen Gu Qingming so cruel.
Chu Zhongyuan patted Luo Dong's shoulder, who was standing there in a daze, to bring him back to his senses.
Luo Dong came back to his senses in a daze and continued to wait for the opportunity to help.
However, the small four-legged beast was obviously not strong enough for Gu Qingming to fight, and Chu Zhongyuan even took a step back with confidence.
In the Heshu Town, they have accumulated a lot of experience in fighting against this kind of things. Gu Qingming swung his spear at the head of the four-legged beast. The four-legged beast hurriedly dodged, but the wind was very fast, and the sharp spear blade had already left a heavy mark on its side, revealing the hideous wooden structure of its body under the colorful painting.
"roar--!"
The four-legged beast protested against Gu Qingming angrily, but it didn't expect that the young man in front of it with cold eyes ignored its protest, ducked to avoid the opponent's bite, turned around and hit it hard with the spear, completely separating the wooden head from the body.
"brush--"
There were a few more loud sounds of the spear chopping down, and Gu Qingming completely eliminated the dead four-legged beast's ability to move.
"Wow………"
Although he had seen Gu Qingming's agile skills many times, Luo Dong was still shocked by his smooth movements that could only be seen in the second dimension or in TV dramas and movies.
After being shattered, the four-legged beast quickly began to burn and turned into ashes.
Mysterious self-destruct mechanism. Many owners of manufacturing-related special arts and abilities will impose such a mechanism on their creations to automatically destroy the remains after destruction, in order to prevent the relevant technology from being obtained and studied by the enemy.
As the owner of the Heshu puppet technique, Sha is no exception.
Before self-destruction, the four-legged beast sent a warning signal in another direction around the White Temple - the burning fire gathered white smoke, which only existed for a short moment and then quickly disappeared.
"It's on alert."
Chu Zhongyuan frowned, realizing the dire situation ahead.
The four-legged beast of Sha appeared here obviously to guard and keep watch for the members of Ceope who were doing unknown bad things - after all, the headquarters of CPA was stationed in Luosu City, and they could not be as arrogant as they were in Heshu Town.
"Chase!"
Gu Qingming was not a talkative person to begin with, and in the urgent situation, he became even more taciturn. Only his eyes were frighteningly bright in the night.
He ran in the direction indicated by the white smoke, and smelled the scent of the psychic in the wind.
Chu Zhongyuan and Luo Dong followed closely behind him. They ran at their fastest speed and finally caught up at the last moment.
In a corner outside the White Temple, Skaia and Monks, who had just escaped, were standing in front of a door in the outer wall of the White Temple that was inexplicably opened.
Sha was not here. Perhaps she had her own ideas and was just using the quadrupeds to help the two Keobas keep watch.
That door wasn't normal.
It was a door that, once opened, one could not see what was behind it. Only a faint white light was coming out from behind the door, flickering in the night, with a texture somewhat like crystal.
Half of Zheng Qiuji's body had fallen into the door, but he still held Skaia's waist tightly, making it impossible for the latter to struggle free for a while.
"open!"
Skaia looked very angry. He pulled out a dagger flashing with cold light from his right leg sleeve. Just as he was about to chop towards Zheng Qiuji, he was hit by a light bullet that Luo Dong shot at him without hesitation, almost like a conditioned reflex, and fell to the ground in pain.
Gu Qingming and Chu Zhongyuan rushed over and fought with Monks.
Skaia was struggling desperately on the ground. Zheng Qiuji saw that he could not hold on any longer, so he gritted his teeth, turned over with force, and threw Skaia and himself into the strange door with suction behind him.
He looked at his three companions steadily and seemed to say a few words silently.
Gu Qingming learned some lip reading out of curiosity when he joined CPA.
He saw clearly that what Zheng Qiuji said was "Goodbye."
"This kid——"
Gu Qingming frowned and was about to say something, but then took it back.
Because he remembered the look Zheng Qiuji had given them just now.
It was a look of complete relief. I don't know what this guy had just been through, but he actually had that look that only a person who had given up everything could have.
Perhaps it was awakened by the person who fell in, the white door suddenly became extremely dazzling, and the suction force towards the surroundings suddenly increased, like a strange wind field.
Gu Qingming pushed Monks, who frowned, turned around and stopped entangled with them, and jumped into the door.
After Monks fell in, the suction of the door gradually weakened and the outline began to appear vaguely.
Gu Qingming and Chu Zhongyuan Luodong looked at each other. Without any hesitation, they rushed towards the light door as if they were running on the school road after school.
The four members of the Superpower Club should be together all the time.
Their friends are over there, so they dare to rush over without hesitation even if it means facing mountains of swords and seas of fire.
Because this is the simple, clear and understandable impulse or fearlessness of young people.
Maybe some people would say this is too rash, that's normal.
Because no one is young forever, but there is always someone who is young.
It was a happy youth when I didn’t think about anything and just acted based on my likes and dislikes.
At the moment when the sky and the earth were turned upside down, white light flashed, and everyone who fell into it seemed to see overlapping crystals stacked on top of each other in front of them.
There were numerous human figures flashing in those crystals, all wearing obviously ancient ethnic costumes. They walked in the cold wind and prayed to the giant wolf moon standing in the sky.
Those hazy and blurred human figures were like shattered memory fragments that quickly disappeared from his sight. After his vision returned to normal, Gu Qingming immediately opened his eyes and forced himself to be alert.
“Beep beep.”
Two faint beeping sounds came from Gu Qingming's side pocket. The sound that only he could hear reminded him of a message - they were now in a space with a very high concentration of mysterious substances.
For example, secret realm.
Gu Qingming looked around and saw Chu Zhongyuan had already climbed up from the ground. Fluorescent water waves surrounded his body and he had a strange chain in his hand.
Zheng Qiuji, who fainted on the ground, was treated frantically by Luo Dong who was standing beside him, while Monks and Skaya, who fell down at the same time, had no idea where they were.
All around were eerily swaying black grass blades, deeply rooted in the rock walls.
There was no end to the sky and earth, completely hidden in the blood-red mist.
Only the black grass leaves were swaying, among which a few beautiful flowers like red spider lilies could be vaguely seen.
No threat at this time.
Gu Qingming and Chu Zhongyuan removed the en factor, but did not give up their vigilance.
They ran to Zheng Qiuji, and thanks to Luo Dong's efforts, Zheng Qiuji, who had lost consciousness due to the fall, coughed twice and finally woke up from his brief coma.
"Oh my god, I thought I was going to die."
Zheng Qiuji sat up suddenly, gasping for breath, and it seemed that he had been frightened just now.
Gu Qingming was wondering why the other party had such an expression. He wanted to speak, but Zheng Qiuji was obviously still dazed. The first words he said after waking up were about his shock at the surrounding environment.
"Is this... a sea of red spider lilies?"
He looked around, as if he had seen the most horrifying thing in the world, and said woodenly.
"So, we are all dead?"
Zheng Qiuji muttered to himself, and it seemed that something was wrong.
"Zheng Qiuji, wake up."
Chu Zhongyuan couldn't keep his usual smile on his face. He frowned and put the wind oil hanging around his neck under Zheng Qiuji's nose, causing the latter to shudder and almost jump up.
Gu Qingming: After not seeing you for many years, Brother Fengyoujing is still as awesome as ever.
But it was obvious that with the help of the Fengyoujing, Zheng Qiuji had gradually begun to regain his clarity of mind, and the confused confusion in his eyes had completely faded away.
"What's wrong? Don't you want to see you again?"
Chu Zhongyuan finally relaxed his brows and said jokingly.
While Gu Qingming was studying lip reading seriously, he was not idle either. While the former was studying at his desk, he was quietly watching his little deskmate on the side. His figure was almost blurry in the fragmented light.
He had learned a little bit during the time he was in a daze, so he also saw Zheng Qiuji's lip movements just now.
"It's the power of a woman named Ceobe in a black dress."
Zheng Qiuji coughed twice more and then completely returned to normal.
"That guy claimed to be passing by to take a look before Skaia and Monks opened the door, but her eyes, her eyes were very special. I just accidentally looked at her, and that guy..."
Zheng Qiuji paused.
"How should I put it? I suddenly had an extremely strong sense of fear and inferiority. I felt so uncomfortable that I wanted to die immediately..."
Zheng Qiuji had an unsightly expression on his face, and it was obvious that he was still frightened by his recent behavior.
There is indeed a deep hatred between him and Ceobe. As a descendant of a family of superpowers, the deaths of Zheng Qiuji's parents are closely related to Ceobe, which is why he hates Ceobe to a certain extent.
Everyone in the Superpower Society knew it, but none of them would choose to poke at their friend's scars at this moment.
But even if he pulled Ceope into the door for his friends, as a normal Zheng Qiuji, he would never say "goodbye" to his companions in a spoken language like a suicide note.
This kind of plot where a miserable character exits the stage does not fit in with his aesthetics at all.
Zheng Qiuji felt like he had been socially ruined in front of his companions in an instant. This action alone was enough to make him be laughed at for seven or eight years.
Luo Dong also showed an expression that asked for a beating, and began to imitate Zheng Qiuji's behavior at that time, reenacting the scene for the other party.
Zheng Qiuji: It’s hard, my fist is hard.
"I'm glad you're okay."
Gu Qingming breathed a sigh of relief. As the only conscience in the team, Zheng Qiuji seemed to see the holy light flashing behind the blue-eyed boy.
"You are still the best, Xiao Ming-class——"
Zheng Qiuji slid to his knees and was stopped by Chu Zhongyuan, who said unhappily, "It's time now, explain to me what the sea of flowers on the other shore is."
Zheng Qiuji rolled his eyes, cast a spell of "don't look at what is inappropriate" on his companions, and began to explain why he had just blurted out those words.
The black branches and red flowers here are so similar to the half-withered and completely destroyed sea of flowers in the depths of the underworld.
The sea of red spider lilies is a majestic scenery that has existed in the underworld for thousands of years. It is said to be the obsession of all the souls that have fallen into the well of rebirth, and it plays an important role in stabilizing the emotions of ghosts in the underworld.
But since the highly confidential incident in the underworld four hundred years ago, the sea of red spider lilies was completely destroyed and has since become a regret in the history of mystery.
