Chapter 835: Exploration
Because Zhang Deming didn't hide his breath, his arrival broke the strange tranquility. He opened his eyes in a slumber, and the chess players looked over. Those who lived in the building also came to the door one by one, and they all looked at him. .
Being stared at by so many monsters with strange shapes all of a sudden, Zhang Deming really panicked.
Slightly calmed down, floating there, according to Shen Lingjun's character, he showed an indifferent smile, and saluted all the monsters.
Many big monsters, after seeing the person clearly, some closed their eyes again, and some turned and went back to the room. Eight of them stepped forward.
Zhang Deming found that, except for one of the eight people, all of them were the same as him, and the overall image was human. Except for the color of their hair, there was no part of a monster.
Everyone exudes a fresh and elegant temperament, and the majestic vitality in each body is extremely vigorous.
Apparently, among the eight people who surrounded them, seven of them were plant monsters, which belonged to plant monsters.
Even with him, there is a total of seven stars and seven heavens, which is the entire plant group of the Yaozu today. Compared with the animal side, it is indeed a bit too hip.
"Yu Teng, you are finally willing to come back!" The first person to speak was the only one among the eight who had the characteristics of the monster race.
This person has a pair of cyan wings on his back, which looks a bit like the Yi clan, but he is a serious bird clan monster, not a sub-human race.
He is Shen Lingjun's good friend, um, he is actually not a very good friend. In the entire monster clan, there is actually no one who has enough relationship with Shen Lingjun to be a confidant or a close friend.
At least there shouldn't be any now, the message Shen Lingjun gave him shows like this.
Zhang Deming showed a shallow smile to him, did not reply, and then greeted several people around him one by one.
Several people also returned the salute one after another, their expressions were relatively indifferent. Obviously, although everyone belonged to the same camp or faction, they didn't have a deep friendship.
At most, he was an ally of the alliance, and this group of people had a mild personality, so he didn't feel any enthusiasm, and felt very unwelcome.
"You bastard, isn't it a bit miserable, anyway, you are also a veteran big demon king, how can your interpersonal relationship be like this?" Zhang Deming looked at this scene, and couldn't help contemptuous of Shen Lingjun in his heart. .
Shen Lingjun was a little silent when he heard the words, as if he had nothing to say about it. Zhang Deming paused, and probably understood that there should be some stories in it.
······
In the center of the crowd, the only seven-star overhaul was an old man. The old man looked very old, but he had long sky-blue hair, which made his wrinkled face like tree bark look younger.
This person is called Hai Mubai, the patriarch of the entire grass and tree monster clan, a big monster at the peak of the seven stars, and his body is the sea star god Tiemu, one of the oldest big monsters in the entire monster clan.
He looked Shen Lingjun carefully, and said: "I haven't come back for almost a thousand years, I have stayed in the human race for so long this time, but I am inspecting various places and want to move the Vine clan out, which big clan or sect of the human race?"
"Returning to the patriarch, Ling Jun has no intention of taking the clansmen to rush to serve as servants." Zhang Deming said with a little respect, but his mood was still indifferent.
Hai Mubai didn't seem to care about Zhang Deming's attitude, he paused when he heard the words, and said: "You just need to think it through yourself, it's better to be an elf than to be an elf, and it's better to be a demon than a demon.
But before acting, think more, look more, don't rush to make a decision. Once the racial oath is signed, it is not easy to change it. Now the wood clan, the old ones can't do much, they can only rely on you. "
For the human race, it may be inconceivable for the patriarch to say such a thing, but for the monster race, it is not a rare thing.
It is just a common phenomenon that the grass and tree clan attach to the human race, and there is no such thing as a betrayal of the race. After all, there is actually no major conflict between the human race and the monster race, and they do not belong to the hostile camp.
Besides, the Hengduan Mountain Range is said to be the Monster Clan, but it is actually just a big alliance of the Ten Thousand Monster Races. Strictly speaking, whether the grass and trees are leaning towards the Human Race or the Ten Thousand Monster Clan, there is actually no natural inclination to align at all.
It is also because of this that there are so few grass and tree clans, because many grass and tree clans do not live in the Ten Thousand Monster City or even the Hengduan Mountains, but live in the human race, just like the flower demon and elf clan.
Zhang Deming bowed when he heard the words, and replied: "Your Majesty understands!"
"Come back this time, but because of the emperor bird singing in the forbidden area?" Hai Mubai nodded and asked again.
Zhang Deming nodded and replied: "It's mainly because of this. I sensed the birdsong before, so I ran back to have a look. I don't know what's going on now?"
Hai Mubai shook his head and said: "It's nothing, now everyone is guarding here, no one is leaving, they say they are waiting for Master Xuanniao.
In fact, except for the Bird Clan, who may really be looking forward to seeing Mr. Xuanniao again, the other groups are more looking forward to the sudden dispersal of the fog, to be able to break in, to gain some bloodlines, inheritance and so on. "
Zhang Deming was a little surprised by Hai Mubai's straightforward words, he didn't answer, and looked around at the few people. Except for the mood swings of the Bird Clan, the expressions of the others were very calm when they heard the words.
Obviously, everyone knows what is going on: waiting for the king is false, waiting for the black bird to fall, and obtaining its inheritance is true.
If it weren't for this, these big monsters wouldn't be here eagerly guarding, respecting or something, the human race seldom has this kind of respect, let alone the powerful and wild monster race.
······
Zhang Deming followed a group of people to the area where the grass and trees belonged, and chatted and became familiar.
The surroundings regained the tranquility before. After chatting for a while, most of the gathered monsters also left.
Hai Mubai and the bird clan man, the big demon named Chi Qing, led him back to the chess table. Chi Qing looked at Zhang Deming and said, "A round?"
Zhang Deming shook his head and said, "Go ahead, I'll go to see the forbidden area."
After saying that, Zhang Deming walked directly towards the inside of the building complex, not far from the edge of the fog, without any concealment. Chi Qing and Hai Mubai were stunned for a moment, just watching his actions.
Seeing this, many big monsters around seemed to be doing their own thing, but Zhang Deming knew that many people paid attention to it.
"What are you doing!!!" Sensing Zhang Deming walking straight towards the edge of the fog, Shen Lingjun's voice approaching to explode rang in his mind.
"Relax, don't worry, even if I want to enter the forbidden area, I can't walk in so carelessly in front of so many people, isn't that asking for trouble, do you think I look stupid?" Zhang Deming comforted.
"You are indeed not stupid, but as long as you complete the pot, I will be stupid!" Shen Lingjun replied quietly.
"Um, am I as bad as you think? How can we share the troubles together and have experienced life and death? Well, how can I deceive you so clearly?" Zhang Deming replied.
"Heh, heh, thank you for sharing our troubles. In the past month or so, you have cheated me less. In less than two months, the face you gave me is thousands of years older than mine. There are many sent out." Shen Lingjun replied.
"Eh..." Zhang Deming replied awkwardly: "You can't say that, I have benefited you a lot, right?"
"For example?" Shen Lingjun replied immediately.
"Eh..." Zhang Deming's words froze, he got stuck for a while and said, "Like two and a half peaches?"
"I really thank you, what a reward! I have never seen a peach in my life!
They are still in your pocket, and you have eaten half of one of them, what a great harvest! "Shen Lingjun said strangely.
"Peaches don't count, the relationship between the monkey clan is quite close, isn't that true?" Zhang Deming replied.
"Is this a benefit? How do you have the face to say such a thing? Your shamelessness has really refreshed my understanding of the human overhaul!" Shen Lingjun said in disbelief.
"Eh..." Zhang Deming concluded again, and simply stopped talking about this topic. He is too disadvantaged by this topic, so it's better not to talk about it!
"What on earth do you want to do?" Sensing that Zhang Deming was about to reach the edge of the fog under the many gazes, Shen Lingjun couldn't help asking. He was really afraid that Zhang Deming would just put his skin on his face and enter the forbidden area!
If that's the case, it's like smashing down a big black pot, trying to smash him to death!
"Please, of course it is to test the effect of the ban. If I want to go in, I should test it first?" Zhang Deming rolled his eyes and continued:
"Besides, I just came here, and things like God's bird chirping happened. Try the ban and it's not working normally. This is a normal reaction!
Could it be that if you listen to what they say, you will believe it, and if you don’t even try it, is it true that there is no change?
Such an aboveboard test opportunity, let it go, I will find a way to sneak in later? How heartless that is! "
Hearing the words, Shen Lingjun relaxed his tense expression a little, "I still say the same thing, you can sneak in, but if there is any possibility of being discovered, I will not hesitate at all, and I will sell you directly. .
And if things can't be done, I might grab your hands in front of people. You must know that this pot is too big, and my thin arms and legs can't bear it! "
"Understood, how many times have you said it?" Zhang Deming stopped while speaking.
At this moment, he has come to the edge of the fog, and there are many eyes around him, either secretly or directly watching his movements.
Zhang Deming paused, and stepped directly into the mist.
In a trance, when he came back to his senses, he found that he was still standing on the edge of the fog, but his face turned from facing the fog to his back facing the fog.
Seeing this, most of the surrounding eyes who were paying attention to him withdrew and ignored him.
Seeing this, Hai Mubai and Chi Qing in the distance shook their heads, sat back down again, and continued the chess game just now.
Standing on the edge of the fog, Zhang Deming frowned.
"Ecstasy-type bans? No, there are also space attributes."
While whispering, Zhang Deming stretched his hand into the mist, trying to sense something. But, as the hand went deeper, he found that he couldn't feel anything, and even the perception of the entire arm disappeared.
"It's useless, Master Xuanniao's natal supernatural power is the five-color divine light, which is forbidden to be sealed into the space. The things she banned are now broken in this primordial. It is impossible for you to enter without the Emperor Bird Token. "
Sensing Zhang Deming's actions, Shen Lingjun said so.
Zhang Deming ignored Shen Lingjun, and went deep into the hands of the mist, and the red light flickered for a while.
The surrounding fog seemed to fluctuate slightly for a moment, but because it appeared and disappeared so quickly, it was almost impossible to detect the fluctuation of the fog.
Zhang Deming's eyes flickered slightly, then he frowned, tested again for a while, and then walked back towards the building complex with deep thought.
"When do you plan to do it? And what method will you use to sneak in without being discovered?" Shen Lingjun still asked very worriedly.
"What did you do? Why did I do it?" Zhang Deming asked suspiciously as if he didn't understand what Shen Lingjun said.
"It's fine if you don't talk about it, so what are you going to do now?" Shen Lingjun asked.
"What else can we do? Of course, we are going to see the high priest, Chi Feiyu, and ask about the Qi Yao clan. We came to Wan Yao City to transform Qi Yao, looking for life!" Zhang Deming replied as a matter of course.
Hearing the words, Shen Lingjun looked at Zhang Deming in doubt, and was puzzled for a while, not understanding what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd.
But there is one thing he is sure of, with Zhang Deming's character as a poor ghost, it is absolutely impossible not to go to the forbidden area.
Instead of believing that the other party will not go to the forbidden area, it is better to believe that he will decisively sell himself and let him take the blame. This possibility is much greater than the possibility of letting the other party not go.
He also fully knew this, so he was a little nervous. After all, after all, the two of them are not even close friends now, but ordinary friends at most.
With Zhang Deming's integrity, if it would be of great benefit to sell himself in such a relationship, he probably wouldn't hesitate too much.
······
During the silence between the two, Zhang Deming seemed to really not intend to continue trying to enter the forbidden area, and went directly to the building complex to which the Bird Clan belonged.
After some inquiries, Zhang Deming came to a large hall. Because there are all big bosses here, there is no one guarding the gate.
Standing in front of the door, Zhang Deming paid respectful salutes, and said in a low voice: "My subordinate, God Lingjun, please see the high priest if you have anything to do!"
"Come in!" After Zhang Deming's words, there was a moment of silence, and a rather cold voice came from the hall.
The voice is clear and crisp, as sweet as a lark. Zhang Deming paused and stepped into the hall.
The hall is not small, of course, after all, it was originally only the residence of the disciples, and this place is a monster clan, so it is not very grand and majestic.
In the empty hall, only a cold woman was sitting in the main seat of the hall, looking a bit quiet.
The woman looked quite old, at least thirty or forty years old, without the slightest characteristics of the monster race, she was still wearing a gorgeous palace dress, and with her temperament, she looked a little graceful and luxurious.
