Chapter 293 The Lost Relics
Slowly adjusting his breathing, Bai Zhi forced his eyes away from the bright moonlight.
It took her five minutes to calm down the restlessness in her heart and the heat in her body.
"Damn it...is this one of your pollutions to me? Does it happen every night in the early hours of the morning? Or does it only happen within a few days close to the full moon night?"
While muttering silently to himself, although the abnormality receded, what appeared instead was more anger and shame.
"My great and beautiful master, you seem to be in a very bad mood suddenly..." Xiao Cui carefully conveyed his thoughts.
By the way, as long as the hidden dangers of "Color of the Strange Star" are completely resolved, I can use the "weakening", "stealing" and "disabled" curses on the "Blood Moon Witch", which should have a certain resistance effect... Bai Zhi Close your eyes and say:
"It's okay. Speaking of which, I have something to ask you."
Xiao Cui raised his voice slightly: "Dear holy master, please feel free to ask questions. Xiao Cui will definitely answer everything you know and say..."
Bai Zhi interrupted and asked:
"Why were the ruins of the Witch Gu Clan sealed? Why have I never heard you mention it?"
Xiao Cui paused and replied:
"Because, that place no longer belongs to the Witch Gu Clan..."
Don’t belong to the witch and Gu tribe? ! What's the meaning? The Federal Bureau of Secret Protection clearly claims that it does not have possession of the Wu Gu Clan's relics. Is it a lie? Or are there other forces involved? Many doubts flashed through Bai Zhi's mind.
Xiaocui explained:
"The people occupying that ruins are not humans, but alien races that do not belong to this world."
"Including the clan leaders of past generations, no one knows where they came from. They only know that they suddenly came to the ruins thousands of years ago. They are numerous, powerful, and have wisdom that is not inferior to humans. They forced the Witch Gu clan to retreat to the Ancestral Witch City. Finally, through the ceremony, I prayed to the 'Witch Ancestor' for a miracle at a huge cost, sealing the passage between the ruins and reality."
"Once there is no shackles of the seal, they will invade the human world and cause a catastrophe within the Federation..."
"It is precisely because of this reason that for thousands of years, if it were not for reading family history, the Wu Gu tribe would have almost forgotten that there was a ruin that once belonged to them..."
Alien? alien? Bai Zhi suddenly became reverie and curious.
"Thousands of years ago...how was the strength of the Wu Gu clan at that time compared to now?" Bai Zhi asked.
"It's better than now." Xiao Cui replied:
"At that time, the Wu Gu Clan's combat power advantage was mainly concentrated in the middle and high-level, unlike today - due to the imbalance of resource aggregation and imbalance, the main combat power was concentrated in the hands of the top clan leader and a few elders."
"Moreover, at that time, the Witch Gu Clan still had many extraordinary items in their hands, but they were robbed after their defeat..."
Since that ruins have attracted the covetousness and occupation of foreign races, I am afraid that its status is higher than that of Jiuli Dongtian, reaching the level of demigod... Bai Zhi asked again:
"What do you think my chances of winning are if I compete with those alien races from thousands of years ago?"
Xiaocui replied without much hesitation:
"If we can add all your dependents, well, ten times more dependents... we will definitely win..."
"But this comparison is with their strength thousands of years ago. As for whether their tribe is more prosperous or has declined now, there is no way of knowing..."
Of course Bai Zhi also knew this, but he did not completely give up the idea of inquiring about the lost ruins of the witch and Gu tribe.
Xiao Shu then talked about the physical characteristics of those alien races. Bai Zhi listened with great interest, as if he was listening to the fantasy story that he was most interested in before reincarnation. He didn't even realize that he had arrived at the hotel, and he didn't get out of the car until the driver reminded him.
…
A few hours ago, when Bai Zhi got off the plane.
Yongan City, Beicheng District.
A quiet girl was sitting opposite a middle-aged couple on both sides of the dining table in the living room, chatting and eating.
This is Xia Xiyang's home and where his niece Xia Qimeng lives temporarily.
As the three of them were chatting, the middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses suddenly turned serious and said seriously:
"Xiao Meng, it's rare for schools to have an early holiday, and Yong'an City is still so complicated. I still suggest you go north to the capital to connect with your father there and stay away from the limelight of the federal south."
Hearing this, Xia Qimeng put down her chopsticks slowly and said with a smile in her eyes:
"Is uncle worried that I will make your family poor, so he is so eager to drive me away?"
On the side, a middle-aged woman still wearing an apron and still retaining her charm put a piece of meat into Xia Qimeng's bowl and hurriedly explained:
"No matter what, it's too late for aunt to love you. I'm afraid you'll lose weight while living in my house. Come on, eat more. Nowadays, boys like girls who are a little bit fleshy. You need to add some nutrition." ”
Xia Xiyang also put down his chopsticks, not even the slightest bit joking:
"Xiao Meng, uncle is different from you. As the director of Yong'an City's Criminal Investigation Department, I have responsibilities that cannot leave here."
"And you are just a student, there is no need to take unnecessary risks here... Of course, I know you have the ability to protect yourself... But when the real danger comes, it is nothing."
"You know, in the capital, the power that cults like the Star Source Secret Order can mobilize is very limited. Those extraordinary criminals who do all kinds of evil do not dare to act and gather wantonly. They are much safer than here!"
"In addition, I also hope that you will take your aunt with you, so that I can feel relieved."
"Xia Xiyang! What did you say? I won't leave!" The woman became anxious and threw her chopsticks on the table.
The smile in Xia Qimeng's eyes faded, she sighed slowly, and said with a little willfulness:
"I don't want to go back."
Xia Xiyang looked puzzled, "What's going on? Are you having a conflict with your dad?"
He recently tried to contact Xia Qimeng's father and brother, but he couldn't get in touch, and the person who answered was always his assistant.
"Uncle and aunt, I'm full, you eat slowly." Xia Qimeng stood up without comment, left the dining table, returned the chairs to their original positions, and walked upstairs.
Seeing this, the middle-aged woman glared at Xia Xiyang. After thinking about it, she still felt that she was not discouraged. She pushed him hard with her hand and said in a dissatisfied voice:
"It's all your fault. If you want to say anything, you have to finish eating! It's good now, Xiaomeng only ate half a bowl of rice again!"
"Look, look, there are so many dishes left! You think it's easy for me to grab the vegetables and cook, right?"
Xia Xiyang could only comfort him with a wry smile: "It's okay, I'll eat the leftovers, and I'll be responsible for Xiaomeng's midnight snack later."
…
In the bedroom, Xia Qimeng found a book from the bookshelf, lay down on the bed, and started reading.
But after a while, he put down the book without any interest, got out of bed, turned on the computer, and skillfully entered the dark web.
Suddenly, her eyes flashed as she stared at the screen, because in the "Extraordinary Events" section, she saw the news that a fishing boat in Jingchu City lost contact due to unknown reasons, and that the water level of the Chu River increased significantly during the flood season.
