The sun in the sky and the earth beneath your feet
"The sun?" Xu Le subconsciously wanted to look at the sky, but such a subtle movement made him jump out of Meng Po's remaining memories.
There was only a red moon in the sky, there was no sun to speak of.
The Meng Po in front of him had decayed into ashes after being touched by the branches of the Gu Yinduo tree. This result made Xu Le feel a little regretful.
Just now he got a lot of useful information from Meng Po, which belongs to the middle level information.
It's the kind that people above think is nothing, such as Night Fury, but people below can't access it, which fills a large part of Xu Le's information gap.
In Meng Po's memory, after Guangzhu was torn apart by Night Fury, his body had already been disassembled.
Based on the information he knew so far, Lightcast's head was used by the lighthouse to make a light bulb and even a source of energy.
It's crazy, but it's a powerful and correct way to utilize the Son of Ancient Sound.
The body forged of light was lifted into the sky by the Night Fury or some other force and became the sun.
This incident gave Xu Le a great shock.
Because from the perspective of a time traveler like him, the sun is much larger than the moon and has much more powerful energy.
It is common sense that the sun represents light and heat.
But the question is... are the sun and moon here the same as the sun and moon he knew before
The moon here is most likely some kind of advanced creature.
So is it possible that the sun is something similar
And the sun must be more powerful than the moon? If it is not the star that Xu Le imagined, and does not have that kind of energy, light, heat, and constant fusion, it is just something like a light bulb, then...
The more Xu Le thought about it, the more likely it seemed.
"If Lightforge was torn apart by the eldest brother, did she take away the darkness that belonged to the Ancient Indo Tree, and raised the trunk of Lightforge to the sky, becoming the sun and giving light to the earth?"
This is a very imaginative idea, and Xu Le doesn't know if it is true.
He didn't know whether Night Fury was as great as he imagined, but Xu Le was a very optimistic person.
His optimism is not the kind that allows one to face setbacks with a smile.
But since you are following the big brother, you naturally want to help him whitewash himself. Don't talk about justice and evil, light and darkness. You are following the big brother. If you don't care about the big brother, how can you be his little brother
"There is also a part underground in Zion. What they are looking for is the part underground in Zion?"
Xu Le threw the half skull in his hand, jumped onto the toad, and rushed to the soul river created by the ferryman.
Ai Li and Wang Shu have teamed up to suppress the ferryman. Xu Le is also very clear that the ferryman is very different from other monsters.
He is very slippery and has a strong ability to escape.
Moreover, the identity of the ferryman himself and his boat seem to have the meaning of carrying other strange things.
Last time the ferryman brought a singing girl, this time it was Meng Po.
This kind of weirdness was really disgusting, so Xu Le wanted to kill him directly.
But the ferryman knew everything clearly in his heart. When Meng Po died from the blow of the toad's huge stick, he was already ready to leave.
In this entanglement with Ai Li and Wang Shu, the ferryman first kept a certain distance from the two, and then when Wang Shu and Ai Li were about to catch up with him, he drove his ferry boat and disappeared on the spot.
When he reappeared, the ferryman had already rowed to the mouth of the Soul River.
Ai Li and Wang Shu both knew that he was trying to escape, but at this distance they would definitely not be able to catch up with him in time.
The boat of the ferryman Old Man Wu had begun to descend slowly. Just as it was about to disappear in front of everyone, a coin cut through the red night sky and hit the ferryman's chest accurately.
Thunder can penetrate darkness.
The ferryman's chest exploded instantly, the golden lightning took away many twisted souls, and the ferryman also fell into the river of souls.
Without the control of the ferryman, the Soul River gradually disappeared in the holes on the ground.
But what is more surprising is that his ferry boat was actually retained.
Xu Le didn’t know whether the ferryman was dead or not, and he didn’t know whether the ferry boat was useful or not. He decided to find a way to keep the ferryman alive first.
After Xu Le and his men killed Wang Xi, Meng Po, and repelled the ferryman, the people who had come over to clean up the rubble by Wang Xi began to be at a loss.
Wang Xi is already dead, so will anyone pay next
The person in front of me...
"Do you know what you are doing?" Xu Le did not say anything. For this kind of thing, Ai Li, who has experience as a law enforcer, is more suitable.
"We just come here to work..." the migrant worker said timidly.
Some of these people look like ordinary people in Zion, but some of them have tattoos on their bodies, and they are obviously from Tianrui Lifeng.
It was useless for Ai Li to use this tone of shifting the blame to prevaricate.
No matter how ignorant they are, these people should know that evading law enforcers and guards to conduct geological excavations in the Kuroshio is most likely illegal.
But they did it anyway.
"All of you, stand against the wall, put your hands on your head and squat down."
"us… "
"Don't talk nonsense. You will definitely be convicted for what you are doing now, but whether it is a crime of improper profiteering or a crime of rebellion against Zion will depend on your performance in the future."
Rewi Alley made the matter sound like a big deal, but in fact the matter itself was a big deal, and Rewi Alley was not exaggerating.
In addition, they had joined forces to repel Gu Yinduo's weirdness before, and these people saw it clearly, so they had no intention of resisting and just squatted in the corner obediently.
"knew."
After Ai Li dealt with these people, he immediately contacted the law enforcement headquarters.
During the Black Tide period, law enforcers would patrol the city, and the place where the three black trees were planted before must be the area that these people would focus on observing.
The fact that these areas could be bribed by Wang Xi only shows that some places are already rotten.
As soon as Ai Li notified the headquarters, a team of patrolling law enforcement officers arrived here.
The captain looked a little confused. After seeing the situation at the scene, he immediately turned his attention to Ai Li, who was in plain clothes.
"Executive Officer Ai Li?"
"Why did Wang Xi arrange these people here? Why are there no patrolling guards here?"
"I'm sorry, we were on patrol the whole time, and it was my negligence that I didn't come to this area..."
"Negligence? It's just one squadron. Your patrol area shouldn't be very large, right? Not coming here for such a long time has nothing to do with negligence. It's dereliction of duty."
"Lord Ai Li, these people are just doing some earthwork. They haven't caused any major harm."
"How strange is the ancient sound that appears?"
"We noticed the strangeness and arrived in time, didn't we? We were very fast."
It can be seen that the captain who argued with Rewi Alley had a clear mind. His power might not be very great, but it was crucial at certain times.
This kind of slippery character is the most difficult to deal with.
Normally, if you use procedures to deal with these guys, it will take a very long time, and there will be a lot of wrangling if there is insufficient chain of evidence.
When you encounter such a person, it is better to let Xu Le handle it.
He usually throws a heavy punch and then lets Li Wen clean up the mess for him.
In the past, Ai Li didn't like this way of doing things, but now that he thinks about it, Xu Le's method is undoubtedly a more reasonable one to deal with such people.
"Xu Le?"
Ai Li looked at Xu Le and found that Xu Le had not spoken for a long time.
Turning my head, I realized that he was squatting in front of the rotten black tree roots, sensing something.
Dots of blue light appeared in Xu Le's eyes. This was no longer a simple description, but Xu Le's eyes were really glowing, the blue light of Gu Yinduo.
"Sir, what are you doing?"
Xu Le did not answer, staring intently at the roots of the black tree. The Toad squatting next to Xu Le turned his head and glanced at the others. After being stared at by the Toad, the law enforcers and guards suddenly felt a tingling sensation on their scalps.
With the nourishment of Xu Le's fruit and after swallowing several high-level ancient sounds and strange polluters in succession, the toad has become quite powerful.
But it is no longer the purebred toad it once was.
It was more or less contaminated with some of Gu Yinduo's blood and turned into a hybrid toad.
"Shut up, can't you see I'm busy?"
It is not uncommon for a toad to speak human language. After all, the law enforcers here are knowledgeable and have seen ancient gods before.
However, after the toad spoke, Xu Le interrupted his observation, turned his head to look at Ai Li, and glanced at the patrolling team of law enforcers.
According to his usual character, he would have to teach these people a lesson.
But now it's no longer possible, he has more important things to do.
Besides, he also had some more important things to confirm.
Xu Le stood up and walked towards the team of law enforcers:
"Hello, I'm Xu Le. I think you must have heard of my name during this period. After the Black Tide battle tonight, you should have a better understanding of me.
What I want to tell you now is that from this moment on, this place has been requisitioned by the Zion Progressives, and no outsiders are allowed to approach.
Rewi Alley, arrange for them to leave."
Xu Le's performance surprised others. The law enforcer was trying to get away, so he naturally would not refuse at this time.
"Since Dr. Xu Le needs to requisition this place, I won't bother you any more. But what happens here next has nothing to do with us."
"certainly."
Ai Li frowned slightly, but still sent these people away as Xu Le requested.
Wang Shu at the side couldn't help but speak up:
"It's a bit out of character for you to let them go like this."
"Well, generally I would kill the leader, and then the others would go in depending on the situation."
"What about today?"
“I sensed the fluctuations of ancient sound energy here before, so I brought you two here to check it out, but I never knew what this thing was.
After seeing Meng Po and the ferryman, I originally thought it was a reaction caused by something strange, but now it seems that it is not that simple..."
Xu Le's attitude was very serious, and Wang Shu rarely saw Xu Le doing things in such a serious manner. He only remembered it happening a few times.
"What do you need me to do?"
"Contact Xia Libo first, ask him to bring someone he trusts over, and then notify Li Wen."
"Notify Li Wen? I understand."
Although Wang Shu was also confused, he was very clear about the importance of Xu Le calling so many people here.
After each of them took action, Xu Le crouched next to the roots of the black tree again. He stretched out his hand and touched the roots. The branches of the ancient tree quietly extended from his fingertips and drilled into the black roots.
Ancient Sound Tree-Forest
The hints in the ancient Yinduo secret language were still vivid in my mind, but soon things changed.
Ancient Sound Tree
The mark of the forest disappeared. After the ancient sound branch entered the rhizome, Xu Le began to be able to control these corrupt rhizomes. He could even begin to manipulate these rhizomes to explore underground.
Just like they did before.
However, such excavation does require manual work, and it is definitely impossible to ask Wang Xi and his people to come over, so now, we can only wait for Li Wen and others to dispatch people over.
…
About 20 minutes later, Li Wen and Xia Libo arrived here at the same time.
As soon as Xia Libo came over, he said in a somewhat dissatisfied tone:
"Brother, it's a black tide now. I need to assist the furnace. What if the city gate is breached? I'm very busy."
Xia Libo didn't like being disturbed when he was doing research. He thought that apart from the nuns coming, nothing else could be more interesting than his research.
So doing research during work hours and working on it when you get home at night is Xia Libo’s ideal life.
Yes, this is his ideal life now.
He was not happy when Xu Le came to disturb him.
"Okay, Dr. Xia, calm down for now. This time we have something really important to tell you."
Compared to Xia Libo, Li Wen is much calmer. He is very busy, at least much busier than Xia Libo.
He also understood that Xu Le knew very well that he was very busy, but still found him at this time, which meant that Xu Le's affairs were more important than what he was busy with.
Although Xu Le often gets into trouble, he still knows the priorities of things.
"Tell me, what's so urgent that you asked me to bring someone over here?"
"You go and clear the rubble and earth first. Clean it manually, and be careful."
Xu Le first directed these people to do things, and then waved to Li Wen and Xia Libo.
He squatted down and dug for a long time from the place where the rotten roots were dug out, and finally dug out a small blue crystal.
This kind of crystal was a very novel thing in the past.
But now…
"Isn't this just soap? Are you kidding me, Xu Le." Xia Libo was speechless.
If you want soap, there is no telling how much the furnace can produce in one night during the Black Tide Night. The most important thing now is to maintain the stability of the furnace.
Xu Le blinked, then nodded.
"This is indeed soap, but this thing... is not mine."
Xia Libo:
Li Wen:
Li Wen, who noticed something was wrong, immediately asked;
"What's down there?"
"A heart, a glowing heart. To be precise, it's the left ventricle."
