Chapter 558 Construction Site
Zhou Bai looked at the twisted shadow in front of him and could also see himself through the twisted shadow in front of him.
It's like having two bodies at the same time, controlling two different five senses at the same time, observing the world from two positions and two directions.
Although it was a little awkward at first, Zhou Bai quickly adapted to this feeling. With a thought, the twisted shadow had shrunk into a fist-sized ball of smoke, flying around the room nimbly.
Zhou Bai patted Aisha beside him and said, "Open your mouth."
Aisha opened her mouth and spit out a big mouthful of Guihai Heisha, then lay aside and kept retching.
Zhou Bai controlled the Guihai Black Evil to pour into the black mist, and he could immediately feel that he could also control the Guihai Black Evil using the twisted shadow, and he could also activate the ability to lie down like a mountain.
‘The Distorted Shadow has all my abilities, but the output is only half at most. ’
'But even if I only have half of my efforts, as long as I don't meet the gods, I can still dominate the world. ’
Thinking of this, Zhou Bai controlled the twisted shadow to flee slightly, leaving the dormitory building and chasing in the direction of Zheng Wentian.
…
On the other side, Zheng Wentian looked a little uneasy since he left, but he still didn't look back and continued walking towards the street in the distance.
On the note just now, the immortals from the Lei Department made an appointment with him to meet tonight.
Originally, it was impossible for Zheng Wentian to agree to such a thing. After all, leaving the area around the dormitory building would mean voluntarily leaving the protection of Elder Tianjian, and he was obviously unable to protect himself from the hands of those immortal gods.
But the other party used his younger siblings as a bargaining chip to threaten, making it impossible for Zheng Wentian to hide alone in the dormitory.
Although Zheng Wentian was arrogant and arrogant in the past, and the immortals and gods were often full of competition and oppression, he still had people he cared about and was cared about, and that was his younger brother and sister.
He originally wanted to ask Zhou Bai to go with him. With Zhou Bai's strength, he should be able to protect him. This was also his original plan before coming to Central City. He had always followed Zhou Bai and relied on him for protection.
But now, as he watched the battle of a famous monk on the forum, and felt the expectations of countless people around him for Zhou Bai, and their hope for Daluo Tuan on the Dao, he couldn't bear to destroy this hope, so he finally gave up relying on Zhou Bai. Bai Guanhua’s plan.
‘Zhou Bai’s goal is to get the first place in the Great Luotian this time... With his character, if he meets those immortals and gods, a conflict will definitely break out. If a fight breaks out at this time, you are besieged, or you are even injured... or if you hurt other immortals and are held accountable...'
‘Maybe that’s why I didn’t get the first place in Daluotian Discussion this time. ’
Zheng Wentian thought about it a lot and finally decided to go to the meeting alone.
Because during the more than a year he stayed in Donghua City, he gradually understood what kind of life humans live now. In recent months, he also clearly felt that in Donghua City, Countless people... how much they hope that Zhou Bai can get the first place in Da Luo Tian Dao.
'Perhaps if Zhou Bai becomes the number one in Da Luo Tian's Taoism and gathers the luck of the whole clan and masters this legendary Nine Realm weapon... then the human race is really qualified to negotiate more conditions with the gods and gods...'
‘How can I hinder Zhou Bai’s hope of winning because of this little thing? ’
In his mind, he kept recalling what Zheng Zihua, his eldest brother who had taken great care of him, who should have been dead, told him during the competition between the four schools, and he recalled his decision at that time again.
‘Even if we are raised by the immortal gods, we are just pigs in the eyes of the immortal gods. ’
'I may not be able to fight against the gods, but I can at least choose the path I want to take, for example not to drag Zhou Bai down...'
Thinking of this, Zheng Wentian showed a bitter smile on his face. If he were his past self, he would never have any thoughts of not dragging others down. But at this moment, he who has experienced the collective life in Donghua City understands that this world is not Everyone can be the protagonist.
The operation of the world and the development of society require not only the dazzling protagonists, but also the silent efforts of hundreds of millions of supporting actors.
'I may not be able to be a glamorous protagonist like Zhou Bai, but I can use my own way to make my own efforts to change the world...'
'Everyone is protecting Zhou Bai and pushing him hard. I can't hold him back anymore...'
Zheng Wentian's steps gradually became firmer and he walked towards the agreed-upon position. He had already made up his mind that he would cut off the entanglement between him and the Leibu Immortal Gods on his own.
'In the final analysis, I don't have a life-or-death feud with them. It's just that I was beaten half to death...'
With his mind made up, Zheng Wentian came to the place agreed by the other party, which was a construction site in a sparsely populated civilian area.
On the construction site is a half-built hospital. It was originally said to be a hospital for civilians. However, due to a lack of materials due to various reasons, the construction was delayed for more than ten years, leaving only this half-finished construction site.
Walking on a dark construction site, with the sound of the howling night wind constantly coming to his ears, Zheng Wentian recalled some rumors about this place: 'I heard that one night when the hospital was being built, someone became deformed here. ’
‘When the workers who took over the shift arrived the next morning, they found that all the workers who worked the previous night were missing. ’
‘Only fifteen half-remembered bodies were left. ’
'The remaining half of the body and the sixteenth worker could not be found. Legend has it that he was the deformed worker. ’
'Legend has it that until now, the worker is hiding in this abandoned construction site. Every night in the dead of night, you can hear the sound of chewing, as he is eating the remaining corpses. ’
Zheng Wentian shook his head and put these urban legends behind his mind. If there really were aberrations, they would have been captured by the gods long ago. How could they still be here?
As he walked through the semi-abandoned construction site, he felt like something was looking at him in the darkness.
Zheng Wentian opened his mouth and said, "I'm here. If you have any issues, come out and talk to me face to face. Don't involve other people."
In the darkness, the shrill laughter of men and women rang out, and black shadows appeared in the corners not far away. Then a male voice was heard saying: "Zheng Wentian, you actually betrayed the Heavenly Court and took refuge with the mortals of the Sanqing Dao Sect?"
Zheng Wentian said: "Sanqing Dao Sect is also a subordinate of Tianting, how can it be considered a betrayal?"
But Zheng Wentian's rebuttal did not convince the other party, but instead aroused the other party's anger. In the darkness, one voice after another rang out, reprimanding Zheng Wentian for his actions.
"Are you still making excuses? Sanqing Dao Sect, Leiyin Temple, and Jijian Pavilion are ungrateful, trying to be independent from Heaven, and have become increasingly uncooperative with Heaven's command over the years. Don't you know these things?"
"As the son of True Lord Ziyang, and as a member of the Lei Department, you actually betrayed the Heavenly Court?"
"Heaven has raised you for so long, provided you with food and drink, provided you with training, and provided you with the best conditions. Now you are seeking refuge with mortals?"
"This traitor! He's cheating and cheating... and he's still with those mud-legged people?"
"He is just a white-eyed wolf! Heaven has raised him for so long in vain!"
"Leibu's face has been completely humiliated by you."
Zheng Wentian said seriously: "We are human beings first! Then we are immortals! What do you think the immortals think of us? We are just their dogs. Our destiny and that of humans are one, and humans are our real compatriots . Only after human beings gain freedom can we break away from the shackles of the Lei Department..."
