Chapter 65: There Is No Way to Become an Immortal in the World (27)

In a room made of metal, everything seemed cold.

Floor, air, body.

How many are there, thirty? Forty? Or more...the room was filled with corpses.

They are not very old, probably between seven and eleven years old?

There is only one left.

The one who was still able to stand up... was holding a silver fork for eating in his hand, and blood was dripping from the fork... a feeling of suffocation.

Suddenly, a metal door that couldn't be opened opened in the room and a bright light came into view.

Before the bright light, there were several tall figures. The light stretched the shadows, like the tentacles of a demon, suddenly reaching into the room.

"Are you the kid who survived this room... One hour and seven minutes, just before the oxygen runs out, not bad. You can enter the next round of rooms. The next round will be shorter, try your best to recover Strengthen your strength, otherwise you may become a failure...just like these losers who fell at your feet."

Bang-dang——!

It was the sound of a silver fork falling to the ground.

…

…

His eyes suddenly opened, and he took a deep breath for a moment, greedily as if he wanted to suck all the oxygen in the world directly into his body.

alive.

…

When Nero woke up, the club lobby was still quiet.

She sat up cross-legged all of a sudden, and then looked around.

"Oh, beautiful little sister. And... righteous little brother."

It was a greeting to the maid who was reading a book not far away - of course, Yu Ye also nodded politely in response.

"Congratulations on waking up, Miss Nero." Youye smiled slightly, stood up and walked to Nero, "I have connected your arm for you, and your nerves have returned to their original state. There should be nothing missing. Of course, if Miss Nero still feels uncomfortable, I can continue to adjust it."

Pressing his palm on the position of the broken shoulder, and then slightly swinging his arm twice, Nero looked quite happy and said: "This technique is much better than the club, and it doesn't feel awkward at all. It really helps a lot. , I originally thought I would have to use one hand to eat from now on."

The maid smiled slightly, and then handed the box containing the soul back to Nero's hand.

"The cost of the retreat and the cost of treatment have been deducted." The maid said softly at this time: "Of course there is still something left... Do you need me to recommend something of equal value to you?"

Nero shook the box, "It's really expensive... There's only one left. But forget it, there seem to be a lot of places to make money around here."

"Then, I wish you can earn more." The maid smiled slightly.

"Of course." Nero also smiled, then stood up and moved his neck and limbs, "Ah, I'm a little hungry, can I have a meal here? I really miss it, beautiful Your craftsmanship, young lady.”

"If you don't mind, please wait a moment." The maid nodded.

Entertaining guests is one of the responsibilities of a maid.

"It doesn't matter. There's nowhere to go anyway. I've always been very patient." Nero sat down immediately, stretched and said, "Speaking of which, can you take a shower by the way? If there is one left, I can borrow it You should be able to use the bathroom here, right?"

"What a generous guest." You Ye said calmly: "But just taking a bath would be a bit much... Okay, just think of it as a gift from this transaction, right?"

"Okay!" Nero stood up directly.

But at this time.

"Why……"

Momo's voice.

The sound made Nero and Youye look at Momo at the same time - he had not left in this short period of time. Why he didn't leave, was it to wait for Nero to wake up, or was he waiting for something, even he couldn't figure it out.

He really couldn't think of a reason for staying... it was just that he was not expelled by the maid. Just...why?

"Mr. Momo, what's the matter?" Youye asked softly, "Oh, the tea has gone cold. I'm so sorry. I'll change it for you right away."

"no!!"

Momo looked away a little, and squeezed his palms harder... Even though he had seen the terrifying power of this beautiful maid, even though he was even more frightened at this time, "Why can we still discuss it so easily?" These things? Could it be... is this really just... just 'currency'?"

Youye touched her cheek with her palm, tilted her head, and followed Momo's line of sight to look at the box placed on the table, "Mr. Momo is talking about the soul,"

Momo nodded silently.

Youye said: "But last time, didn't I tell Mr. Momo some of the rules of transactions here?"

"I know!"

Momo became a little excited, "But I still can't believe it! Even if I saw it with my own eyes, I still can't believe it! Why... why would senior's shop make such a thing! Why... senior... he is obviously like that You have a kind heart, and Miss Youye is so noble! Why... why would you do such a cruel thing?!"

"Thank you very much, Mr. Momo." The maid said softly at this time: "I am very happy that you praised my master. But... what you see is the true appearance of this store, and there is no falsehood. Anyone can come When you come here, you can get what you want by paying the corresponding amount. We trade all precious things, and what people have always used the most is...souls."

"You...senior, what are you doing by collecting souls..." Mo Mo suddenly felt a little cold.

Even though the inside of the store is still different from the cold weather outside, a chill comes from the bottom of my heart.

"It's related to the secrets of our store. I'm sorry that I can't answer your doubts." The maid said calmly: "Of course, if Mr. Momo really wants to know, you can pay accordingly."

"Oh! I want to know! I want to know! Here!" Nero on the side opened the box containing the soul very neatly.

"Miss Nero, you are being naughty." The maid smiled at this time.

"What a scary look." Nero shrank his neck and obediently closed the box back.

But at this moment, he suddenly remembered the sound of the bell at the entrance of the lobby - it was not that a guest came in, but that Mo Mo rushed out from here with his head lowered.

Youye looked at it calmly.

"Just brother, why don't you stay and have a meal together to celebrate my escape from death? Hello~~~~"

Nero yelled a few words, then looked at You Ye and shrugged: "It seems that he really left... But then again, isn't the beautiful young lady a bit harsh?"

"Because there is no need or intention to deceive in the first place." You Ye said softly: "This gentleman seems to have had some misunderstandings before, it is better to correct it as soon as possible."

"I'm going to take a shower." Nero yawned and stood up.

"You walk slowly." Youye bowed gracefully towards Nero.

…

…

He didn't know why he rushed out like this... Momo lowered his head and rushed forward, feeling like a deserter.

He ran through several streets in one breath. With the special characteristics of a monk, this amount of exercise only made his body slightly warm, and the wind blowing on the cold day turned into a cool breeze.

Momo exhaled, and white mist exhaled from her lips and nose. The street was not deserted at this time.

This seems to be... the place where Nero fought with the two powerful warriors.

Now that the thick fog has dissipated, the streets have been blocked at the same time. Warning cordons seem to have been set up in front and behind, and there are also traffic police who are not on duty on New Year's Eve to watch over here.

There were reporters here to interview, but they were blocked from the street by the traffic police... At the same time, some nearby residents also walked out of their houses.

Momo heard some conversations among the crowd.

People don't know much about it. It seems that a family of three was involved in a car accident, and no one was spared... But looking from a distance, the car that caused the car accident, that is, the car that was involved in the accident, was already covered by a huge black tent by the traffic police. It was covered, and its damage couldn't be seen at all.

At the same time, Momo also saw two men who gave him a different feeling from ordinary policemen and traffic policemen... From these two men, Momo noticed something familiar.

They also wear a small badge... I remember that Captain Ling Feng of the Administration seemed to have similar accessories on his body.

"It's the people from the administration...are they involved in this matter?"

Momo glanced at the crowd for a few times, then quickly left the crowd.

He had heard his master, Taoist Changhe, say that the existence of the Management Bureau not only dealt with the management of the Taoist and demonic worlds, but also often played the role of the aftermath department, such as dealing with some crazy demons destroying society, or arresting some abusers. Kill Taoists who fell into the evil way.

I wonder if this matter will eventually be traced to the senior... Momo thought subconsciously.

But he quickly slapped his cheeks with both hands and laughed at himself: "What are you still thinking about him now..."

…

Those who were unconscious in the thick fog at the beginning have gradually woken up. How to deal with it afterwards is no longer what Momo plans to care about.

Anyway, with the administration's support from the state, there will always be a way to deal with such things, right?

Tsing Tao beer.

I bought this on the way back... Momo rarely drinks alcohol.

At this time, he had returned to the empty room of another B&B where Zhan'er was later accommodated, and was sitting in the corner of the room. There were already several empty cans next to him.

"Let's go tomorrow... I really don't know when it will take you to wake up." Mo Mo looked at Zhan'er on the bed with heavy eyelids, "Sometimes I really envy you, you don't have to worry about anything."

Tiredness is getting stronger.

Suddenly some noises woke Momo up from his imminent sleep... It was the sound of the wind outside blowing the cans and hitting the foot of the bed.

Momo opened his eyes for a moment, feeling a little dazed - but he soon woke up completely.

Because he saw an elongated figure under the moonlight, which was reflected on the floor of the room... Mo Mo suddenly looked towards the terrace outside the sliding glass door.

Under the dim light of the night, a figure was standing here at the moment.

"It's you!" Mo Mo's drunkenness disappeared in an instant.

The person who suddenly appeared here was the mysterious man wearing a bronze mask that he met under the ancient well in the ancestral residence of the Song family not long ago!

Just like that day, the other party still wore a simple bronze mask and stood with his hands behind his back.

Mo Mo immediately grabbed the black wooden sword placed next to him. While he was secretly ashamed of his alertness, he also became nervous... How did this mysterious man find him twice?

However, just when Mo Mo's palm was about to reach out to the wooden sword, the mysterious man raised his hand and flicked his fingers, and the wooden sword placed by the wall was instantly flicked away by a gust of wind.

Mo Mo was shocked and angry, but the mysterious man in the bronze mask took action again. He quickly held a yellow talisman between his fingers and shot it out.

The yellow talisman suddenly turned into a beam of golden light, like a rope, and instantly tied up Mo Mo tightly - Mo Mo fell directly to the ground at this time.

"Although I don't know what happened to you, you are like a lost dog now."

The bronze masked man slowly walked into the room and walked towards Zhan'er beside the bed.

"Stop! What do you want to do!"

"I just retrieved some necessary things." The bronze masked man said calmly at this time: "You think that getting the order is his luck. But to me, it doesn't matter who gets it... as long as it goes smoothly Just bring it out.”

"Who are you! What is your purpose?"

Mo Mo, who was lying on the ground, appeared to be kneeling, and then stood up. He mobilized all his magic power and wanted to open the bindings on his body. However, with his magic power, he could not break away from the golden light!

The mysterious man looked at Momo at this time and said, "You are very good and there should be more room for development. It's just that this world has restricted you. Soon...soon you will see a suitable one for you." era."

"What?" Mo Mo was startled.

In fact, whether it was under the ancient well or this time, Momo had never felt any killing intent from this mysterious man.

Otherwise, he could kill him directly from the beginning without waiting for him to notice, instead of just tying himself up like now.

"That person doesn't seem to be here." The mysterious man whispered at this time: "Then no one will stop me this time... I have escaped a disaster."

But although Mo Mo couldn't break free at this time, he suddenly rushed towards the mysterious man, using the simplest and crudest way.

"You seem to have been stimulated by something today?" The mysterious man said calmly at this time: "But it is best not to vent your anger on others."

The bronze masked man struck Mo Mo on the chest with his palm, sending his whole body flying and hitting the wall.

Momo spit out a mouthful of blood and passed out immediately after landing.

"The preparations are almost complete, but there is still something missing..."

The mysterious man pondered for a moment, then lifted Mo Mo and Zhan'er up with one hand and jumped away from the window sill, quickly disappearing under the night.
