Chapter 233
The moment it was teleported out of the machine maze, the subtle barrier between the main body and the vest disappeared, and the consciousness in the vest instantly knew the whole process.
The real body can hide behind a vest, but the vest... can't be displayed or hidden.
Yu Tu: QAQ
He is really having a hard time!
Yu Tu closed his eyes and slammed his head on the back of the vest to pretend to be dead. He always felt more confident when facing other people with the vest than with his original form.
He heard the voice of the clan leader: "Tuzi."
Yu Tu half-opened his eyes and saw that the clan leader had come very close to him. His face was as gloomy as if he wanted to eat a child. The sign of his impending anger looked extremely scary, but Yu Tu thought of the translucent soul in the corner of the Emperor's House in the Jianmu world that would never return... He called out softly, "Clan leader."
Diwu received the news two days ago and hurried to Kunlun. He was so angry that his head almost exploded on the way. The two days of waiting made his anger soar to a new height. But when he saw the cub hiding behind the Buyehou, with half of his face exposed, red eyes and nose, and tear marks on his cheeks, and calling him in a particularly sad tone, the anger in his heart suddenly deflated like a punctured ball.
Diwu comforted himself, forget it, forget it, the cub has returned safely, don't be angry with him, don't be angry with him, don't be angry with him———
Diwu took a deep breath, and the sound seemed to come out from between his teeth: "Yu! Tu!"
He waved in the direction of Yu Tu: "Come here."
Yu Tu: “!!!”
He tucked the half of his face that was exposed back into his vest and shook his head like a wave drum.
Even calling him by his full name, he didn't dare to go over!
Being trembling with fear at the sight of the main body being targeted by the Emperor's House, the vest could only bite the bullet and stand up: "Chief of the Emperor's House, calm down. It was not his intention to get into danger."
Diwu's gloomy gaze shifted from the original body to the vest.
For a moment, Yu Tu wanted to make both his real self and the vest faint.
"Senior Buyehou." If you don't look at Diwu's face, just listen to his tone, it seems quite normal, "The cub of our tribe——"
Before he could finish his words, Di Xiu, who had just followed him, quickly stuffed a handful of small round black fruits into his mouth.
"Patriarch." Di Xiu patted Di Wu's arm soothingly, "Let me take care of this, you go and cancel the arrangement."
Diwu stuffed a handful of small round black fruits into his mouth. After swallowing them, his expression improved a lot. He closed his eyes, with a trace of pain on his face, but soon returned to normal: "Okay."
As soon as Di Wu left, the feeling of oppression instantly lessened a lot, and Yu Tu, whether in his true form or in his disguise, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Senior Buyehou." Di Xiu's mood seemed to be always peaceful and gentle. His eyes fell on the half of the furry head that was exposed from behind Buyehou. "Can you bring Tutu with you so we can talk?"
…
Ten minutes later, Yu Tu, who was sitting in the core reception room at the heart of Kunlun Snow Peak, was still a little confused.
He sat in the middle, with Ma Jia on his left, and then on Ma Jia's left sat Elder Di Xiu, next to Di Xiu was Di Wu, next to Di Wu was Gui Yu...Except for Elder Zhi Huai, who had gone out again during the summer vacation and no one knew where he was traveling, all the elders of the Grass Tribe were present. On his right was Kunlun Mountain Master Shi Xu, next to Shi Xu was Elder Yi, next to Elder Yi was Qu Yu Tao...Almost all the teachers of Kunlun were also present.
Yu Tu was sitting on the main seat, feeling very uneasy, wishing he could get up and rush out—so many big shots gathered together, the situation was even more frightening than the three-judge trial!
"Calm down, Tutu." Di Xiu produced two fruit plates from nowhere. Both plates were filled with small round black fruits. He pushed the larger one to the center of the table in the conference room, and used a levitation spell to transfer the palm-sized one to Yu Tu alone. "Tell me slowly, there's no rush."
The small black fruit produced by the Emperor Xiu tree has a powerful calming effect. In a sense, it is an alternative version of a quick-acting heart-saving pill.
Three days ago, the time sequence that controlled the entire Kunlun suddenly discovered that there was something unusual in the Kunlun forbidden area. She tried to enter the machine maze to check the problem at the entrance, but was refused access. On the other hand, after Di Xiu finished talking to Jiang Jiang, the uneasiness in his heart did not subside with the passage of time, but became more and more intense. After not contacting Shangyu Tu for a whole day, Di Xiu suspected that something had happened.
So he first contacted the time sequence, and after confirming that Yu Tu was really not in Kunlun, he directly asked the Emperor's House to find Kuang Mian, the Returner of the Xuxu, and pulled out Kuang Mian, who was looking at the star map with a sad face, to do divination. The result of the divination showed that Yu Tu was in Kunlun. There was danger, but his life would not be in danger.
After getting the definite answer, the two heads of the family rushed to Kunlun overnight. Outside the sword steps, they saw a large group of worried teachers and the silent Buyehou in the corner.
To enter the Kunlun Forbidden Land, one must meet a prerequisite: the entrant must have the blood of an ancient exotic tree. Di Wu had entered here fifty years ago, but after he came back, his cultivation level plummeted and his life was in danger, even his soul was damaged. Although Di Wu no longer remembers it, Di Xiu has not forgotten it.
When Di Wu tried to enter the machine maze by himself, Di Xiu stopped him and replaced him with himself. However, when he activated the teleportation array for Kunlun to enter the forbidden entrance, the teleportation array only flickered under Di Xiu's feet, as if the contact was not good. His figure was clearly extinguished, but he could not succeed.
The two parents, who had tried various methods but failed, had to stop temporarily and wait outside the sword steps with the Kunlun teachers. This wait lasted for two days.
If Kuang Mian had not clearly predicted that “there is danger, but it will not endanger life”, it would be hard to imagine whether the snow-capped peaks of Kunlun would still be there.
The situation was unclear for three days, but it still touched the bottom line of Emperor Wu, whose temper became increasingly irritable after the loss of his soul. Even with Kuang Mian's guarantee, Kunlun's sword level almost became completely history.
Kunlun was already on good terms with the Plant Clan, so he naturally knew that it was difficult for the Plant Clan to develop intelligence and transform. In a hundred years, they have only transformed into this one seedling. Just thinking about it, you can imagine how precious it is.
Finally, the two parties negotiated that the Kunlun Mountain Lord Shixu would use his sword energy to split open the mechanical maze city and forcibly connect to the entrance of the Kunlun forbidden land, and then the Grass Clan would send people into the forbidden land to bring Yu Tu back. If Shixu could not split the defense outside the mechanical maze city, then the Grass Clan would use their own methods to forcibly break it open. However, once the Grass Clan's method was adopted, the Kunlun Snow Peak would not need to be repaired at all, and it would be more convenient to directly rebuild it.
After a series of arrangements were quickly finalized in a few words, the timing began. When she swung the third sword, Yu Tu was teleported without any warning. If the vest had not been caught quickly, he would have been split into two identical halves.
The title of being the best among all the talents in his time was not just talk.
Yu Tu had no idea that so many things had happened during the three days he was missing, nor did he know that he had saved the Grass Tribe an astronomical amount of compensation. Looking at the small round fruit that Elder Di Xiu passed to him, Yu Tu decisively grabbed a handful and put it in his mouth, chewing it. His cheeks bulged and he looked like a little hamster.
Yu Tu swallowed the small round fruit with a slightly sweet taste, and her mood became calm as if she had seen through the worldly affairs. The chaotic thoughts in her mind also became gentle at this moment.
After calming down completely, Yu Tu looked at the bosses in front of him and suddenly realized that this was a good opportunity.
Since Senior Qilin allowed him to tell others that the barrier would be broken after a hundred days, it meant that certain restrictions had been weakening, or even had disappeared. He only needed to cover up certain things that could not be said, and he could tell the truth about everything else.
Under the effect of the Emperor's Rest Fruit, Yu Tu actually had some vague thoughts. What did Senior Qilin say?
[After you get out, explain the matter to the adults outside, and then do what you need to do.]
Yu Tu believed that although Senior Xun and the Patriarch of the Diwu Clan had been trapped in the Jianmu world for the past fifty years, with their intelligence and wisdom, they must have made backup plans in the inner and outer worlds. Now it was time for him to complete the last link!
So Yu Tu cleared his throat, faced the overwhelming gazes, and started off with a bang:
"I met Senior Qilin in the Kunlun Forbidden Land. He told me that the barrier separating the inner and outer worlds will break after a hundred days."
Yu Tu combined part of the truth transmitted to him by the consciousness of heaven and earth, sorted out the order, and continued to blast: "Fifty years ago, the barrier was about to break. It was Senior Xun Ruowang and the clan leader who entered the Kunlun Forbidden Land together and sacrificed themselves to extend the barrier for fifty years..."
Yu Tu dumped out everything in one go, including the help provided by the [Mirror], the secret of the door of the [Qilin Council Room] of the Alien Bureau, Xun Ruowang's clone, a corner of the soul and all the memories left in the Emperor's House, and the sad fact that the barrier could not be extended a second time.
In the entire huge conference room, apart from Yu Tu's voice echoing, the only sound could be heard of everyone silently chewing the Di Xiu fruit.
They understood every word spoken by the young cub who had returned unharmed from the Kunlun Forbidden Land, but when they were put together, it sounded like a farce.
"Excuse me, classmate Yu Tu, please wait for a moment."
Qu Yutao interrupted Yu Tu's narration when he paused. He flipped his hand and produced a large stack of exquisite talismans and quickly lit them. Based on the spells on the talismans, Yu Tu judged that they were emergency contact talismans leading to different places.
Yu Tu: “……?”
He had a bad feeling.
Sure enough, after these special talismans were ignited, the spells did not dissipate, but automatically formed small projection magic arrays, dozens of them in total.
Among these projection arrays, those who looked familiar to Yu Tu included Jiang Jiang, the director of the Alien Bureau, Kuang Mian, the Returner, Gu Hongying's parents, and Wen Qingli, the chief academic officer of Chang'an Academy, whose photo he had seen in the Grass Clan's classroom... Basically, all the big guys in the inner world that Yu Tu knew, whether he knew them or not, were all there.
"I'm very sorry for interrupting your story just now." Qu Yutao smiled politely, "Student Yu Tu, you can continue."
After he finished speaking, he used his spiritual power to hook a small round fruit from the middle of the conference table and stuffed it into his mouth, then turned his gaze to Yu Tu.
Yu·There were strong gazes from all directions·Tu: "..."
He silently picked up a handful of small round fruits from the exquisite little plate in front of him, chewed them, and after swallowing them, he felt that he was now calm enough to become a monk.
"Okay, got it."
