After the amazing sight of the sun and the moon shining together appeared in the night, the entire city that never sleeps seemed to be shrouded in a layer of black fog, and the water flow of the Naihe River also changed from mercury to normal water.
Xia Qi looked around at the pedestrians and scenes on the street, and felt as if his eyes were covered with a layer of gray frosted glass. It was foggy and made him feel unreal.
"Don't you think... this black fog is very similar to the black smoke coming out of the Tianji formation?" Xia Qi couldn't help but say.
As night fell, the zombies around regained their human form, but their movements became a little slower and their expressions were not as lively as in the previous few days.
Sister Hong also noticed something was wrong. After thinking for a moment, she replied, "Generally speaking, entering the decisive battle mode means that the instance is about to end."
When the miracle of the sun and the moon shining together appeared, it had a great impact on the zombies in the city.
Xia Qi nodded. Once in the Rose Earl copy, they also entered a state similar to the "Long Night Mode". At that time, he was almost forced to pass the level.
"It's just... your grandma..." Sister Hong hesitated for a while, but couldn't help but remind Xia Qi.
Although Xia Qi's grandmother's disappearance would affect the Light Extinguisher's enlightenment value, Sister Hong was more worried about Xia Qi's mental state. If Xiao Yu died in the black smoke of the Heavenly Secret Person, she might go crazy on the spot.
"I will find her back." Xia Qi said coldly. He didn't want to talk about his grandmother in front of Sister Hong, so he changed the subject and said, "There are only three people left on both the Lantern Extinguisher and the Heavenly Secrets."
Now, there are only three people left who can extinguish the lights: him, Sister Hong and the financial man. The remaining three people who can control the secrets are Cha Gong, the scar man and the person who held the formation from the day before yesterday.
"We have to find the finance guy as soon as possible. If he has done anything against the law, don't blame me for killing him and exchanging him for enlightenment points!" Sister Hong gritted her teeth and said, obviously she was very disgusted by the human trafficker White-Faced Man's deeds.
Judging from the “mother” transformed by the white-faced man, most of the women he trafficked were innocent and in good conditions.
These women were sold by the white-faced men to old or disabled men in the mountains. Not only did they live in darkness, they were also constantly beaten and sexually assaulted. Of course, this was not the end, as these women also had to give birth to sons for them.
The reason why the women appeared in the copy of the city that never sleeps is that they are all dead. It is unknown whether they died of suicide or murder.
Thinking of this, Sister Hong felt a little regretful: "It was too easy for him to die just now."
He should first whip the pale-faced man seventy or eighty times, and then strangle him to death to feel relieved.
Xia Qi did not comment too much on the way the white-faced man died. He planned to find the financial man first and get the salvation value belonging to the light extinguisher.
The two walked towards the Nai River, hoping to try their luck and see if the finance man was still selling watermelons.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they crossed a street, they heard the familiar cry of the financial man: "Is there anyone who wants to buy my watermelon? Please save the child..."
Xia Qi: “…”
After selling watermelons in the city that never sleeps for several days, the financial man's promotional slogans became more and more diverse, which shows that he has a talent for marketing.
Sister Hong strode up to the financial man, looked at the dead boy lying next to him, and asked straight to the point: "Do you remember who you are?"
The finance man was still wearing his old man's white vest today, but after a few days, it seemed that his white vest had never been changed, and there were many yellow stains on the corners.
The finance guy stared at her blankly and asked back, "Honey... do you want to buy some watermelon?"
"Buy your head!" Sister Hong yelled and started to get angry again.
Seeing that Sister Hong was about to take out her weapon to fight again, Xia Qi coughed lightly, interrupted their conversation, and said, "Let me ask."
Sister Hong pursed her lips, looked up at Xia Qi, and gave up her seat.
Because she had just killed the human trafficker White-Faced Man, her emotions were not very stable. She knew that playing through the game with emotions would easily affect her thinking, so she planned to calm down first and leave the rest of the work to reliable teammates.
"Is this your brother? What's wrong with him?" Xia Qi squatted down and pointed at the boy lying next to the watermelon stand and asked, "Answer my question and I will buy your watermelon."
"Okay." Seeing that Xia Qi was willing to sell watermelons, the financial man's face became much better, and he said, "My younger brother has tuberculosis, and our family has no money to treat him, so I have to come out and sell watermelons..."
Tuberculosis? Selling watermelons
Xia Qi frowned and asked again: "Do you mind if I take a look at him?"
"Sure." The finance guy was very generous to the customer who was selling watermelons.
Xia Qi came to the lying boy and began to check his appearance.
The boy was very thin, about thirteen or fourteen years old, with dark circles under his eyes, and looked sickly.
"Are there any other people in your family? Are they all alive?" This time, Xia Qi was questioning the boy lying on the ground.
Hearing someone talking, the boy slowly opened his eyes. Unlike the harmless look he gave when he closed his eyes, the boy now had a pair of pitch-black eyes. Not only was there no light in his eyes, but they looked eerie when he looked at people, making people feel very uncomfortable.
"Yes." The boy smiled slowly. At his age, he should be full of youth and vitality, but due to being bedridden for a long time, his smile looked very tired. "It's just that they are sick too."
Xia Qi narrowed his eyes slowly and looked at the boy: "It feels bad to be sick, right? Especially when you have no money to treat the disease."
"What do you mean?" The boy's expression suddenly turned cold. He stretched out his thin hand, tightly grasped Xia Qi's wrist, and asked in a hoarse voice that was inconsistent with his age, "What do you want to do?"
Feeling an inhuman force coming from his hand, Xia Qi shook the boy's hand away.
Xia Qi turned around and walked to the finance man, pinched the finance man's dirty vest, pulled him up, and said, "Tell me the truth, did you cheat their family of money before?"
"What are you talking about?" The financial man looked at him puzzledly, "You can't say that even if you don't buy my watermelon, right?"
Judging from the white-faced man’s previous reaction, Xia Qi knew that the financial man knew exactly what he had done, and the reason why the financial man was obsessed with role-playing was to avoid the revenge judgment of the ghosts.
After all, the old man’s lesson is still there. Those who fail to play their roles perfectly will end up dead.
Xia Qi and Sister Hong looked at each other and said, "Feed the watermelon."
Seeing Xia Qi and Sister Hong fighting, the boy suddenly got up from the ground and looked at them with a gloomy face.
"Ha, okay." Sister Hong laughed, took the machete beside her, and cut a slit in the watermelon.
With a "snap" sound, the watermelon made a sound similar to the sound of flesh being cut. Then, bright red juice slowly flowed out from both sides of the watermelon, and a smell of blood filled the air.
Sister Hong sneered and used both hands to break the watermelon into two halves.
What I saw was that there was no red watermelon flesh inside the watermelon, but a white fluid substance that looked extremely similar to some kind of brain flower.
"Wow, the flesh of this watermelon is white, your watermelon is really good!"
Looking at the contents of his watermelon, the finance guy's face turned pale with fear: "How could this watermelon be like this..."
Sister Hong was obviously addicted to feeding people "food". She grabbed a ball of white and red paste with one hand, turned around and walked towards the financial man, smiling and said, "Come, sister will feed you watermelon."
“No, don’t…” The finance man stared at the blood in Sister Hong’s hand with a look of fear on his face, shaking his head like a rattle.
Xia Qi was holding the finance man's shoulder with one hand. At this moment, there was a sound of wind behind him, as if something was rushing towards him.
Xia Qi took out his trident with a "swish", and without even turning his head, he stabbed it hard behind himself.
"Ah!" A strange scream came from the boy behind, he seemed to be hurt by Xia Qi.
Xia Qi turned around and looked at the person behind him.
The boy was standing behind him, looking at him with resentment. His hands had turned into pitch-black claws, and a big hole had been poked on the back of his right paw by the trident, with smoke coming out of the hole.
"Who are you!" the boy roared viciously.
"I'm here to convert you." Xia Qi looked at him coldly. He turned the trident in another direction and pointed it at the finance man's throat. "Don't you want to be converted?"
“Hahaha.” The boy let out a hoarse laugh. He covered his smoking hand with one hand and slowly backed away. “What are you talking about? I don’t understand.”
Judging from the current situation, this zombie boy is obviously more difficult to deal with than the white-faced man's parents. He doesn't seem to care that the financial man will die, but only cares that the financial man is tortured.
Sister Hong also frowned and felt her right hand starting to itch again.
It seems that the financial man cannot be killed for the time being.
"Let's take them back first." Xia Qi and Sister Hong looked at each other and decided to take the man and the zombie back first, and then slowly study the method to convert the zombie boy.
When tying up the man and the zombie, the zombie boy originally wanted to run away, but Sister Hong whipped him to the ground with a whip and then tied him up with the rope used to tie up ghosts.
After tying up the financial man and the boy, the two men prepared to transport them to the Night Emperor's territory and lock them up.
When the group was not far from the palace gate, several explosions were heard from the city that never sleeps behind them.
"The Sky-Master has started killing zombies again!"
The two turned around and found thick smoke rising from the vicinity of the Nai River again.
Ding Dong! The conversion value of the Heavenly Secret Master: +5, the total conversion value of the Heavenly Secret Master: 305.
Ding Dong! The conversion value of the Heavenly Secret Master: +5, the total conversion value of the Heavenly Secret Master: 310.
Ding Dong! The conversion value of the Heavenly Secret Master: +5, the total conversion value of the Heavenly Secret Master: 315.
After entering the decisive battle mode, as if worried that both parties were not working hard, the Light Extinguisher could actually hear the increase in the progress value of the Heavenly Secret Person.
However, judging from the "+5" value of salvation each time from the Tianji person, the value of salvation increased by the Tianji person when killing zombies is not as high as that of the Deng Extinguisher.
This is probably because the camps are different and the rules are different.
Because the Tianji people have weapons that can kill zombies on a large scale, their salvation value will only increase by 5 points for each zombie they kill. However, the Dengzengers take the role-playing route, and their salvation value will increase by 100 points for each mission target they deal with.
"These guys are really fast!" Sister Hong said with gritted teeth as she looked at the billowing smoke in the distance. After she finished speaking, she did not forget to give the financial man a hard kick and cursed, "Keep pretending! I'm going to kill you today!"
"Wow, I'm just a watermelon farmer selling watermelons, why do you treat me like this!" The finance man started crying again and refused to admit the crime he had committed.
The two men grabbed the financial man and the zombie boy and threw them into a side hall of the bedroom. Fearing that they would escape, Xia Qi found eight paper coachmen and asked them to stand in a row to watch them.
"By the way, what are you going to do next?" Xia Qi asked.
It is only a matter of time before they deal with the financial man, but in the long run, they still have to deal with the problems of Xiaoyu and Xia Qi's grandmother.
Hearing this, Sister Hong's face changed, and her voice suddenly became softer. She said, "Don't worry, I will solve it..."
Xia Qi was silent for a while, then said, "Don't force it."
Sister Hong doesn’t know yet that Xiaoyu is her real daughter. If she finds out the truth one day, will she have the heart to deal with Xiaoyu
"Then...what are you going to do?" Sister Hong asked with a frown.
Compared with Xiaoyu, Xia Qi's grandmother is obviously also a good person. They are now facing the same problem: how to convert good people.
Of course, the most important problem now is that Xia Qi’s grandmother is nowhere to be found.
Xia Qi pursed his lips: "I'm going to find Ye Di."
After saying this, he turned around swiftly and walked towards Ye Di's bedroom.
Sister Hong looked at Xia Qi's back, seemed to have guessed his intention, and was stunned.
Seeing Xia Qi about to enter the bedroom, Sister Hong couldn't help but suddenly said, "If you don't want to, don't force yourself. At worst, we can kill all the Tianji people and then pass the level..."
Hearing this, Xia Qi paused, turned around and said to Sister Hong: "Thank you."
He had no objection.
After entering the Night Emperor's bedroom, he found that the Night Emperor was not in the room. Xia Qi looked around the bedroom and finally saw the Night Emperor drinking under the moon on the roof.
Under the beautiful light of the sun and the moon, Ye Di sat sideways on the eaves, a golden dragon scale belt outlined his slender waist, one of his legs was resting on the bricks, and the other leg was stretched down, making his legs look extremely long. He held a wine glass in one hand, and his black long sleeves with gold edges fluttered in the breeze, making him look elegant.
He poured the wine into his throat and sipped it slowly. His elegant movements and posture made him look like an emperor. Even Xia Qi praised his magnanimity in his heart.
After Xia Qi climbed up, Ye Di turned his head and curled his lips at him: "My Moon God, the sun and moon are beautiful tonight."
Xia Qi sat beside him and said seriously without any hesitation: "Let's have the wedding tomorrow."
"Um?"
Hearing this, Ye Di was unable to react for a moment. The wine glass in his hand trembled and he accidentally spilled a few drops of water.
"I said, we'll have the wedding tomorrow." Xia Qi glanced at him.
What's wrong with this guy? Isn't this the thing he has been looking forward to the most
Even he spoke, why didn't he respond for such a long time!
As soon as Xia Qi finished speaking, suddenly, in just a blink of an eye, Ye Di disappeared from his side.
Just when Xia Qi was wondering where others had gone, there was a "bang" sound from under the eaves, as if something had hit the floor tiles.
Xia Qi: “…”
Did Ye Di just... fall down
