Chapter 749: The Incense Burner
Li Ruo sighed and said helplessly: "Since you are not afraid of trouble, I will tell you. Back then, I was ordered to walk in the mountains and forests in the body of an animal to find those hidden gods. One day, I wanted to report something, but I happened to hear the words
During the conversation between Shu and Xu, they were discussing how to induce more people to follow Xu. Guiyuan is a scam at its root!"
Chu Dong hummed slightly without any big reaction. Li Ruo saw this and immediately asked: "What's your expression? Do you not know what Guiyuan is? You can't imagine what they are doing."
!This thing is very scary!”
Chu Dong asked with a smile: "Are we going to arrest the souls of these people?"
"You! How do you know!"
Li Ruo had no body and could not show delicate expressions, but Chu Dong could still feel his surprise at this moment. For him, this was indeed a secret worthy of being silenced.
"Do you still know something, such as the art of speech and hiding something, or have you made some preparations?"
Li Ruo was silent this time, and he didn't know what to say at this time, because he felt that Chu Dong knew everything he wanted to say, but the problem was that he had never had the chance to tell the secret in these years, and even if he told it, there would be no one.
Xin, how could Chu Dong know?
After being silent for a long time, Li Ruo couldn't help but ask: "How did you know?"
"I have studied speech for so long, and I know him somewhat. What you hear is probably what he wants you to hear. What does he want to achieve through your mouth? From the perspective of transmitting information, what you just said
It’s not enough. Specific places and specific events are the only effective information transmission.”
Li Ruo fell into self-doubt. He could understand Chu Dong's meaning, that is, Yan Shu deliberately let himself hear these words, and then wanted to convey something to Chu Dong through his mouth, but there was a big difference between the two.
How could there be any connection after thousands of years?
Li Ruo retorted loudly: "You think too highly of yourself!"
"It doesn't have to be me, it can be anyone else. And it's not that I think highly of myself, but you take yourself too seriously. Why do you think you can overhear the conversation between Yan Shu and Xu?
If he doesn't want to, can you hear it? If they want to kill you, do they need to use a beauty?"
Li Ruo was speechless by Chu Dong. This is indeed the case. There are ten thousand ways to kill him with words and skills. There is no need to let Hongyan go to war. It is not that he has no fighting ability. Why did he drive Hongyan? This matter never happened
There is a problem with it at the root.
"You are right, I am just a chess piece. I once thought I had met a noble person, but later I found out that I had met an enemy."
Seeing Li Ruo's reaction, Chu Dong suddenly felt that he was quite pitiful. Hongyan had also fallen into a similar confusion before, so Chu Dong persuaded: "The world is still uncertain, everything is possible, but there is no need to be so pessimistic. You are still in trouble now."
It's better to have a little bit of humanity than to go completely crazy. Just calm down your emotions."
Seeing that Chu Dong wanted to leave Li Ruodun became anxious, "Don't you want to know what the secret is? I definitely didn't lie to you! Let me out, even if you just throw me in a corner, I will tell you everything!"
"It's not the right time yet. It's good for you to stay here."
Chu Dong left the basement without looking back, leaving Li Ruo to continue to remain silent in the darkness. Half a year ago, Li Ruo refused to let go, but half a year later, he was willing to tell Chu Dong this. The most important reason was his madness.
A lot has disappeared, all due to the special environment of this place.
As soon as Chu Dong left the basement, he saw Zedui. She was looking at Chu Dong worriedly. The basement under her feet was actually Zedui's domain. If it wasn't an ordinary basement for Zedui, how could he have tortured the general like this? ?
Chu Dong walked to the dining table and poured a cup of hot tea for Zedui, "What? Did you all hear it?"
"Well, I heard it, why didn't you stop him talking? Are you afraid that I would know?"
Chu Dong laughed and said, "You are thinking too much. I just feel that the time has not come yet. I just want the situation of all parties to maintain the status quo and buy myself some time to grow. If I know the news, I may be influenced by others. It's better not to know about it and avoid being upset."
"Okay, since you have your own plan, it's fine. I didn't come here to eavesdrop on purpose today. Little Bai Mao didn't come to practice today. I came to see her but I felt someone entering my field, so I came over to take a look. ."
"You don't have to explain to me. I locked him up mainly for your and Hongyan's feelings. If you didn't know you, I would have torn him down the day he was captured."
Chu Dong had long since returned to his normal appearance, and the aura on his body was not as scary as when he entered Taxu. However, Zedui was deeply afraid of Chu Dong. He couldn't explain the reason, but he just felt that he was dangerous.
After chatting with Zedui for a few words about Little White Mao, she took the initiative to leave. Chu Dong didn't stop her. He gave Zedui absolute freedom.
After Zedui left, Chu Dong was silent for a long time. It wasn't until the entire pot of tea was drunk that Chu Dong stood up and said, "Maybe it's time to go and have a look at that place."
Chu Dong left the city by himself in a plane and flew towards the border of Cangming. As soon as the plane moved, many people in the winter capital became nervous. Everyone knew that it was Chu Dong's car. For Almost no one dares to guess Chu Dong's thoughts now. Chu Dong's technological output in the past six months is enough to advance the world's technology for hundreds of years.
They didn't know the truth about these technologies. Everyone thought they were created by Chu Dong. He could create all kinds of horrible things at will by locking himself at home.
In the past six months, Dong has mastered the technology of aircraft manufacturing, but it is almost impossible to rely on these ordinary craftsmen to build aircraft. It is difficult for ordinary people to make all parts as accurate as Chu Dong can, which leads to the failure of the aircraft they made. Can't assemble it.
It's been half a year, and even with Chu Dong's personal help, Dongdu's first plane still hasn't taken off. Sometimes theory is one thing, and practice is another. The internal structure of an airplane is too sophisticated.
But this is not in vain, the heavy industrial system of Dongdu is being gradually improved.
Chu Dong drove his own plane to the Howling Abyss. He did not consume a single bit of energy during the whole journey. The energy storage module he got from Li Ruo was very useful. It was a technology of stacked magic circles. Dozens of The layers of magic arrays stacked together are several millimeters thick. These magic circles can be charged repeatedly, thus having a similar effect to a battery. They can be recharged when nothing happens. According to Chu Dong's estimation, they can even fly around the earth when full of energy.
The fuselage also has very good strength, somewhat similar to the original three-pointed two-edged sword. It cannot be broken by ordinary masters, and it is extremely fast. It can accelerate to Mach 11 regardless of the cost. It is considered an artifact. This It should be regarded as the highest product of the combination of virtual weapon technology and modern technology in this world.
Hongyan was waiting on the ground on horseback before the plane landed. Hongyan had never left the station since Chu Dong came to see Hongyan but she was not there. Unless Chu Dong called her to go to the city for dinner, she would never leave.
, Chu Dong has also said several times that once the old Emperor Cangming dies and the eldest princess takes over the power, there will be no pressure on them. But the beauty is not happy, and Chu Dong has no choice but to call her to the city frequently.
Let her relax by eating there.
After the death of the old emperor, Cangming was in chaos for several months. Various forces in Cangming were entangled, and everyone wanted a piece of the pie. The folk customs of this martial country were too fierce, and everyone felt that they had some strength.
Showing his face, Chu Dong did not leave the winter capital, and his deterrence was really limited. Almost everyone felt that Chu Dong had killed thirteen great masters and was seriously injured. Although he was afraid, he did not change his attitude after hearing the news.
In the past six months, Chu Dong has secretly helped the eldest princess to kill at least ten radical opponents, but until now, the eldest princess has not completely taken control of Cangming, which shows the chaos in this country.
Chu Dong jumped down from the cabin. Hongyan twitched the reins and slowly came to Chu Dong's side. The red gauze clothes under the sun and her round thighs gently rested on both sides of the horse's back, making Chu Dong couldn't help but be dazzled.
Hongyan asked with a smile: "Why are you reluctant to leave the institute today?"
"Well, I have a little free time today, so I'm going to go take a look."
Hongyan frowned, "Do you want to enter the Howling Abyss?"
After Chu Dong said the name of the Howling Abyss, Hongyan showed very obvious anxiety. For her to show such emotions, it was obvious that there was nothing wrong with that place.
The Howling Abyss, as the natural dividing line between the two countries, was originally a desert. As long as someone approached, they would be attracted into the abyss by the sound of howling, and finally disappeared. Ever since Hongyan led the army to station here, the howling sound seemed to have disappeared.
, even Chu Dong thought it was suppressed by Hongyan.
However, an incident three months ago completely shattered this view for several people. The Hongyan Army was devoured by a total of 10,000 people. From the time they were stationed here, there were 100 people every day, not one more, not one less. They were completely
Without the control of Hongyan, even if you die, you will have to enter the howling abyss.
Chu Dong came here once because of this incident, but he only felt the boundless evil here. Chu Dong felt that he might not be able to resist the evil thoughts.
For this reason, Chu Dong even sent someone to ask Shan Xin for advice. Shan Xin only told Chu Dong to stay away from that thing, and when he could move freely under the influence of Zedui, and when he could go down to see, today in Zedui
In the realm of Dui, he could be completely unresponsive, and he knew the time had come. You must know that he would have felt boundless loneliness in that dark place before.
In half a year, all his abilities have matured.
Chu Dong turned around and walked towards the Howling Abyss. As he walked, he said: "Go down and take a look. You have lost so many of your men. Aren't you anxious?"
The beauty dispersed, her horse put on her armor again, and she caught up with Chu Dong in a few steps, "Don't go that way, there is no road over there, you come with me."
Hongyan is like this. She won't be pretentious with Chu Dong. She just decides to go with him. She only cares about how to achieve her goal, not whether she should do it or not.
The two of them jumped down from the Howling Abyss, borrowing strength three times to reach the ground. They were more than a hundred meters underground, with earthy yellow ground, a mottled canyon, and many human bones. Most people jumped down.
It was immediately smashed to pieces, but judging from the marks on the ground, they persisted in crawling some distance deeper after their bodies were smashed.
"This is my first time coming to this place. Didn't you train here before? Didn't you find anything unusual?"
"Abnormal? There are so many abnormalities here. I don't even know which one to tell you. For example, magic will fail here. Many of my generals are good at magic, but when they get here, they all return to their original shape, and this land It always gives me a very familiar feeling. As for where it is familiar, I can’t say.”
Hongyan and the two walked forward for about a kilometer and the light became darker and darker. When they looked up, they saw that the top of their heads was blocked by a layer of rocks. The Howling Abyss was very long, stretching for more than ten kilometers, but 80% of it was It is only fifty meters deep, and only the section where Hongyan is stationed is as deep as a hundred meters. Now it seems that someone dug this canyon artificially.
As the two of them went deeper, the light had completely disappeared. Fortunately, Chu Dong had specially brought a flashlight, but with his current level of cultivation, there was no need for light at all. His soul position was like a radar, scanning everything around him into his mind.
As soon as he entered the tunnel, a strange creature with light blue fluorescence appeared next to Chu Dong. It was wearing very ordinary coarse linen clothes, the clothes of an ordinary farmer. Its facial features completely disappeared, replaced by a pure white face. , the arms are slender, the palms are at least fifty centimeters beyond the sleeves, the fingers are almost close to the ground, but his legs are nothing.
Call it a ghost. It has no ghost aura and still has yang energy on its body. Call it a human. Half of its body is void. Even Chu Dong can't figure out the origin of this thing.
After it appeared, it slapped Chu Dong directly. Chu Dong didn't resist. He wanted to try what kind of attack this thing relied on. After the weird arm with a miserable color hit Chu Dong, a burst of blue light immediately appeared. Chu Dong had no reason. I feel pain, this pain does not come from the body, but from the soul.
Chu Dong tried his spells again, but found that they were all ineffective. He casually formed a soul knife and chopped off the monster's head. After the head was severed, its body ignited with blue flames, and finally disappeared.
Chu Dong looked back at Hongyan, "Is this what you use to train your troops?"
"Yes, the lethality of these things is very average, but they can cause pain to the soul. They are most suitable for training soldiers. Moreover, these things are endless and become denser as you go deeper. I call them incense ghosts because they are always burning incense."
Chu Dong looked around, "Burning incense? Where is it?"
"It's deeper, about five hundred meters."
Chu Dong and Hongyan continued to move forward. This kind of incense-burning ghost was really not dangerous to them, but Chu Dong would feel pain if he was hit. He could only kill wherever he went, cutting all the way to the depths of Hongyan. He held down his arm.
"Shh, look carefully."
Chu Dong picked up a flashlight and looked deep into the place, because there was no light source at this place. Chu Dong killed these incense-burning ghosts entirely by relying on the fluorescence emitted by them.
Under the light of the flashlight, the two people were filled with burning tribute incense. There was an invisible dividing line. There was nothing outside the line, but inside the line, there were densely packed tribute incense. On the wall, On the ground, even the top of the tunnel was filled with tribute incense sticks by these strange things. These tribute incense sticks ignited spontaneously without fire, without any sparks but constantly emitting white smoke. The burning lengths of the tribute incense sticks varied, and they were obviously inserted in batches. After going up, there is still a thick layer of incense ash on the ground, so much that it has covered up the original color of the ground.
"This is?"
Hongyan shook her head with a solemn expression, "I don't know what it is. Anyway, it's very evil. This imaginary line is very important. There are only scattered incense ghosts outside. They don't even know how to burn incense, but they have crossed this line."
line, everything has changed. Although they look the same, their strength is very different. The incense-burning ghosts here can kill ghosts. The first time I brought people in, I didn't take it seriously, and they died a hundred times.
Many ghost soldiers.
