Fortunately, Xu Shenxing was quite familiar with most of Jiangjin's areas when he was working as a delivery boy. Therefore, although the specific location was not stated on the phone, as long as there is a general direction, it will be fine.
Without Jasmine by his side, teleportation (physics) is naturally unusable, so Xu Shenxing can only run to the scene of the incident in the form of high-speed rail for ordinary people - it's not that he can't run faster, but if he continues If he speeds up, Yunlin will have no way to block and eliminate the sonic boom and other overflowing energy caused by his running, which will cause irreversible and huge damage to the entire city.
But even so, in less than half a minute, he had arrived at the scene of the crime: the entrance of a messy store was the best sign.
Several policemen seemed to be working hard to maintain law and order, and the person who looked like a survivor who had escaped from inside was emotionally describing what happened in the store to one of the policemen, but for some reason, the policemen seemed to be hesitant to Don't look like you're going in.
Probably waiting for support.
Xu Shenxing randomly found an answer from his not-so-rich police knowledge, mainly from movies and TV shows, and explained it.
Taking advantage of the fact that no one seemed to be paying attention to him, Xu Shenxing easily crossed the barricade used to block the entrance of the store, and ran into the dessert shop that suffered.
After entering, he understood why those policemen didn't come inside.
There were three corpses at the entrance of the store, and they were all detached. Two of them were still wearing police uniforms. It seemed that the police had entered the store as soon as they received the report, but they failed. When the prisoner was found, he was killed immediately. It may be that other policemen witnessed this horrible and incredible scene, so now all the policemen are waiting outside for support and did not go inside again.
Xu Shenxing was temporarily relieved that there were no women among the corpses on the ground.
In other words, Concubine Gong Ruixi should still be alive.
He looked at the corpses carefully. The three victims had the same cause of death. They all had their heads twisted off by a huge force. Xu Shenxing had seen similar wounds before: in some grid worlds, the people who occupied the world Demons like to show off their evil power, and one of the most common ways is to twist human heads off alive.
At this moment, a cold and thick tentacle-like thing wrapped around Xu Shenxing's neck suddenly, and then the tentacles suddenly tightened, trying to strangle Xu Shenxing to death!
This made Xu Shenxing happy: it seems that the prisoner is still there.
So he grabbed the thing that was probably a tentacle, and squeezed it hard, only to hear a puff, the thing broke directly, and thick red blood spurted out!
Almost at the same time, a low and hoarse roar came from near the top of Xu Shenxing's head. It seemed that the monster also felt pain.
Without any hesitation, Xu Shenxing punched the ceiling again, and almost half of the entire ceiling was blown away, and even the dark clouds in the sky were blown out of a circular gap, which slowly closed after a while. Then pure white snowflakes floated into the store.
"Tsk, I've used too much force... I've stopped exercising for so long, but my strength is still getting stronger..." Xu Shenxing's face was a little ugly. Even though he had tried his best to control his strength, he did not expect to cause too much damage: " However, the feeling just now, the monster... no, is it a monster?"
Although after Xu Shenxing mastered the power, no matter what it was, he was almost killed in one blow, but after fighting more times, he was still able to distinguish the general types of creatures killed by him—just like humans trampled to death bugs, Even with the same amount of effort, the feeling of crushing an ant and crushing a cockroach must be different, right
By the way, the part that wrapped around Xu Shenxing's neck just now, which he regarded as a tentacles, seemed to be the monster's tail.
However, after Xu Shenxing made the decision to hand over the aftermath to Xiao Zhengyi, he put this matter behind him.
The police outside seemed a little startled by the sudden change here, but they still didn't look like they wanted to rush in. This also gave Xu Shenxing a chance to search for his concubine Gong Ruixi.
It's just that for some reason, he felt that he couldn't feel the aura of Concubine Ruixi in the store.
"If you are looking for two girls..." At this time, a waiter hiding under the table mustered up his courage and said to Xu Shenxing: "They just ran away from the back door of the kitchen, but there seems to be an invisible one Monsters are chasing them..."
"Thank you, you just stay here and wait for rescue. I guess the police will rush in soon."
After Xu Shenxing thanked the other party, he ran towards the kitchen pointed out by the other party.
At this time, the back door of the kitchen had disappeared... To be precise, it disappeared along with the wall where the back door was originally located.
Xu Shenxing hurriedly chased him out.
Fortunately, one side of the ground in the alley at the back door is full of potholes, and it is full of terrain that does not seem to be formed naturally, or can be seen in the city.
So Xu Shenxing immediately chased after him in that direction.
But after turning a corner, his heart suddenly sank to the bottom.
There was still an alley there, but this time the alley was covered with bright red blood, which looked just like the photo of the murder scene that Xiao Zhengyi had shown him before!
Could it be that you are late
Feeling remorseful in his heart, Xu Shenxing hammered the wall beside him. Even though he controlled his strength, he forced a big hole in the shape of a spider web on the wall.
"Can't save it again... Sure enough, I..."
But then, he noticed something was wrong.
"Wait, this blood... isn't human blood?"
… about a few minutes ago.
When Concubine Ruixi was shrouded in despair, a voice suddenly sounded.
"Although it is my responsibility as a bodyguard to protect you, can I ask Mrs. Concubine Gong to think about it from my position once in a while?"
Concubine Gong Ruixi suddenly realized that the voice came from her shoulder, so she turned her head to the side, and saw a small paper figurine holding her temples. The small paper figurine probably had rune-like characters emitting from it. Light blue halo.
"Miss Huakaiyuan?" Concubine Ruixi called out in surprise.
Almost at the same time, several other paper figurines also crawled out from the corner of the girl's clothes, and jumped forward.
After hearing several consecutive bangs, those little paper figurines exploded like bombs.
So the monster who was about to encounter the girl was forced back a few steps by the sudden explosion.
After that, a figure descended from the sky (in fact, it jumped from the roof next to it), and landed between Concubine Ruixi and the invisible monster. It was the girl's bodyguard Huakaiyuan Youyuan from Yinyangliao.
"Although your expression tells me that you seem to want someone else to save you than me, but for now, please bear with me."
"No, I didn't..." Concubine Ruixi defended in a low voice with some embarrassment.
Seeing that the other party waved towards Concubine Ruixi's shoulder, the little paper man on Concubine Ruixi's shoulder turned into an ordinary piece of paper and flew back into the hands of the Onmyoji girl.
"Also, about sneaking out, I'll come back later and talk to you later. Now..." the onmyoji girl glanced at the apologetic concubine Ruixi, sighed, and then looked at There was nothing in front of him: "Let's get that thing done first."
"Miss Huakaiyuan, be careful, that monster cannot be seen with eyes!"
Concubine Gong Ruixi said hurriedly.
"An Xin, how many monsters do you think our onmyoji dealt with would show their bodies on their own initiative?"
Saying that, the Onmyoji girl threw out the paper talisman.
Although a certain Miss Huakaiyuan has been sluggish since she appeared on the stage until now, at most it can only show that her luck attribute is relatively low, and the enemies she encountered before were all too powerful: not Jasmine, who can be compared to even if sealed. The existence of the devil king is the incarnation of the evil of human beings gathered in the magical girl world of 700 people in the world, and it is natural to be hanged and beaten.
In fact, as a genius girl of Yinyangliao, she is quite capable to control the Seven Stars of the Big Dipper Nine Stars, or one of the Nine Emperor Stars to a certain extent.
When the enemies are more normal—such as the invisible ogre—she can get a more objective display of her strength.
The paper talisman ignited spontaneously in an instant, and then a black thing emerged from it: it was a tall but very slender humanoid creature, wearing a black suit, but without facial features, and behind it was a black like Tentacle-like organs.
This is one of the shikigami of Huakaiyuan, the slender ghost (slender man) whose hands were broken by Jasmine.
As a weirdness born from urban legends, as long as rumors about it persist, the slender ghost will not be completely wiped out—even if it was beaten out of shit by Jasmine back then, it only took a while to recover to its current state.
Because in urban legends, humans who are stared at by the slender ghost can hardly escape its pursuit, so this shikigami can also find its prey through perception methods other than vision: although it doesn’t matter whether this thing without eyes has vision or not. is a mystery...
In short, with this ability, the slender ghost will not be unable to attack because it "can't see" the enemy. Almost the moment it appears, the tentacles on its back are already entangled with something in the air.
Then the invisible monster naturally began to fight back, biting off a few tentacles of the slender ghost, but this did not prevent it from being bound by the remaining tentacles of the slender ghost. However, it has been maintained here. The invisible monster's strong body far exceeds that of normal creatures, and it is almost not afraid of any attack by the slender ghost. Even if someone manages to escape from the slender ghost, he will eventually be affected by it and become a madman).
However, Huakaiyuan Youyuan didn't intend to use the attack power of the slender ghost to deal with the opponent.
From the very beginning, she just wanted the other party to be restrained in a short time!
"'Shikigami Summoned—Half Step Giant Gate·Change'!"
In the next moment, the bound invisible monster, together with the slender ghost who was binding Play to it, was trampled into small pancakes by the elephant's leg falling from the sky...
Different from the super giant elephant legs used to deal with Jasmine back then, this time the half-step giant gate is much smaller. Although the power will also be reduced because of this, the accuracy is greatly improved. One of the results of her practice: And for some reason, she always felt that if she really dared to use the full version of the half-step giant gate to destroy half of Jiangjin's street, she would definitely regret it for some reason...
The purely conceptual creature like the slender ghost is okay, after being stepped on, it just turned into a funny paper-like appearance, and disappeared after waving to Huakaiyuan Youyuan in protest, but the invisible monster was like a being trampled. Like a crushed tomato, blood splattered all over the ground. Putting it on some video sites in China, it is to the extent that it has to be labeled as Holy Light or Shadow Priest.
With a light breath, Hua Kaiyuan finally relaxed.
"All in all, it's not convenient to talk here. It's better for us to leave first. Miss Wuye's car is still waiting for us outside."
"So you came here by car from Huakaiyuan..." Concubine Gong Ruixi looked surprised.
"Of course. Because the car is cheap and fast, if I rush over with spells like wind scythe, it's doubtful whether I still have the spiritual power to fight the enemy."
Hua Kaiyuan Youyuan explained: "And the paper symbols used to cast spells are also very expensive."
"How should I put it, I always feel an unexpected sense of reality..." Concubine Gong Ruixi showed a disillusioned look on her face.
With concubine Gong Ruixi and the little girl with a dazed face, Huakaiyuan turned left and right for a long time, and finally found the exit of the alley.
Not long after, a limousine also stopped at the intersection.
"My lord!" As soon as the car door opened, Viola rushed towards Concubine Ruixi, but was skillfully blocked by Huakaiyuan Youyuan.
"Let's talk in the car."
When the group got into the limousine and drove towards the hotel, Concubine Ruixi briefly told the two of what happened to her.
"That is to say, you, the little guy, are the cause of everything?" Wuye Zhen said with righteous indignation while driving the car.
"From the results, yes." The little girl nodded: "But please believe me, I didn't intend to do this."
"But it's irrefutable that you have put my employer in danger." Huakaiyuan Youyuan said sharply.
"That's right, so I suggest you put me down now, and I will try my best to live alone."
The little girl said very seriously.
Huakaiyuan looked at Concubine Ruixi from a distance, and the meaning was very clear, let her make the decision.
"Sorry, before I make a decision, can I know the cause of this incident?" After thinking for a moment, Concubine Ruixi asked like a little girl.
"Didn't you ask before?" The little girl asked curiously, "Why do you ask again?"
"Although I can't tell the exact reason, I think you are a little different from the innocent look before..." Concubine Ruixi took a deep breath, and then replied: "A person's experience will affect a person's character, and the so-called Your memory is the proof of your experience, when you get back part of your memory, because your experience is different from before, your personality has also changed, am I right?"
"I didn't expect that what I asked you outside the kitchen before made you feel this way, but it's basically correct."
The little girl nodded: "Although it's not complete, I did recover a little bit of memory. There are no outsiders here, so I'll just tell you."
After speaking, the little girl fell silent, as if hesitating where to start.
After organizing her words for a while, she began to say: "Although it's a little unbelievable, I'm actually the former land god of this land."
"Eh? Land God? Is it something like Ksitigarbha?" Concubine Gong Ruixi showed a surprised look.
"No, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's god rank is much higher than that of the land god." The little girl shook her head and said, "Actually, that's not right. To be precise, I'm only 'half'."
Although Huakaiyuan, who has studied Huaxia and Fusang myths, wanted to complain, but in the end she didn't say anything, quietly waiting for the other party's next words.
"For some reason, the original me split into two people, one is the me in front of you, and the other is the leader of that kind of man-eating monster." The little girl continued: "For example, now I and her Relationships are like a balloon in the middle being strangled by a rubber band, if one side gets bigger, the other side gets smaller, and vice versa."
"And the gas inside the balloon can be regarded as our original memory and strength." The little girl looked at Concubine Ruixi: "The reason why I didn't even have a little memory when I first met you is that Because the balloon on my side is extremely small, I can only maintain the most basic knowledge of survival and the strength of a normal person."
"Then why did you recover to this level?" Concubine Ruixi asked curiously, she thought about what they did at that time, and then asked: "Could it be because of eating food? "
"Tell me if you don't know!" The little girl replied confidently.
"Be more reliable, hello!" Pantheon, who almost accidentally hit the accelerator with the roadside fence, complained loudly.
"Even if you say that, I really don't know..." The little girl said with an innocent face, spreading her hands helplessly, "This is the first time I have split into two people, what can I do?"
"The other purpose of you is to kill you?" Hua Kaiyuan Youyuan changed direction and asked.
"Yes, although the main reason is not clear, but I think the other party may think that as long as she kills me, she can become her true 'self'."
The girl nodded.
"By the way, speaking of it, until now, I don't even know your name!" Concubine Ruixi clasped her hands together and asked suddenly.
"That's right, my name is... Well, although I want to tell you, I haven't actually regained the memory of this aspect, but let's talk about the pseudonym I used before. You can call me Yuxuan , Wang Yuxuan."
