Pursuing Immortality

Chapter 288: A series of strange appearances

Views:

"From this point of view, this novel is not a random fabrication. It is possible that black magic and white magic exist, as well as warlocks and witchcraft."

Gu Yu closed the book and muttered to himself: "Artistic creation comes from the foundation of life. Thinking about our fairy tales, although they are exaggerated, they are also well-founded."

He stood up slowly, the book in his hand suddenly disappeared, and appeared on the next-door bookshelf in an instant.

This novel is the most popular set of fantasy works in the West. It takes Great Britain as the background and tells the story of a group of little magicians defeating big monsters. And on the bookshelf, there are many similar works, some describe elves and dwarves, some describe dragon liches, some study alchemists and so on.

After Gu Yu replied to Wang Qi, he kept preparing his homework at home and searched through the relevant classics. He also found an interesting thing: there may not be gods in the Western supernatural world, but rumors like some folklore or real people in history are not necessarily false.

For example, Nicolas Flamel, a native of Gaul, a famous alchemist in the 14th century, is regarded as the patriarch of European alchemy.

His most famous contribution is the creation of the Philosopher's Stone—yes, the Philosopher's Stone of Harry Bobo! It is said that this thing can turn mercury into gold and make people immortal.

Because in 1427, Flamel died in his hometown, and alchemists from all over the world dug three feet to find the secret of the Philosopher's Stone, but there was nothing in the couple's coffin.

And in the centuries that followed, people continued to claim to have seen the Nicholas couple...

It sounds tall and exotic, but if you think about it carefully, is this routine very familiar? Is it different from our legends of Ge Hong, Ye Fashan and Sa Shoujian

So, since we have the legacy of our ancestors, there is no reason for them to go all the way.

"Squeak!"

Gu Yu pushed open the door, and saw that the courtyard was silent, and there was no one under the tree, and the two little ones had gone to play somewhere.

He didn't bother to look for it, so he tapped his foot, swished three inches off the ground, and took a few more steps. In an instant, the whole person disappeared in the air, leaving only a faint white mist, like flowing clouds, floating half a mile away.

Jingxin House is 40 minutes away from the practice field, and in just a few minutes, this light fog has arrived in the field.

"Hoo..."

The mountain wind blows, the white mist fills the air, and it slowly turns into a figure.

Gu Yu landed on both feet, feeling the solidity and solidity under his feet, and couldn't help being very satisfied. With the help of the Refinement and Yishen Pill, the speed of the practice of the family of four has increased steadily.

He is the most obvious, just like the "Shadow Fragmentation Art" just performed, no matter the special effect or the duration of Wumao, it is much stronger than that in Changbai Mountain.

The real pretense is like the wind, always with me!

Of course, I was also a little disappointed—Xiao Zhai was sitting not far away, and he didn't even hang himself.

"elder brother!"

"elder brother!"

Gu Yu knocked out a pill, and just after he digested it, he let out a long breath when he heard someone shouting urgently. Afterwards, Long Qiu ran up and said, "That's great, you are all here!"

"What's wrong?" Xiao Zhai asked.

"A big monster appeared, it seems to be very powerful!"

Long Qiu took out his mobile phone and handed it to the two of them, but it was the communication section of the APP. For the first time, an official message was released:

"Recently, an unknown beast was found in the area of Tianhua Mountain-Wulongbei. This beast has a large range of activities, often moves across regions, has strong attack power, and eats people. So far, eight people have died and thirteen people have been injured. Local members should pay attention to safety and do not investigate rashly."

"..."

Gu Yu frowned and asked, "Is there any other way?"

"People have been sent to guard. The foot of the mountain is full of protective nets. The government organized several teams to enter the mountain. Many local people are clamoring to move, and some have gone to the province to petition."

sweat!

It feels weird to spit out words like petition from her mouth.

It is said that Huashan was on the edge of Dongyun City's jurisdiction that day, and it was next to Shengtian's Wulongbei. Wulongbei is also a small hill with hot springs, which is a very popular scenic spot.

As mentioned earlier, from Shengtian to the southeast, there are continuous mountainous areas. These mountains are all Changbai veins, big and small, running through the two major cities.

Since that monster has a habit of wandering, it will inevitably cause harm everywhere, so it has to be taken care of.

But what to do

Gu Yu thought for a moment, then suddenly said: "Xiao Qiu, you go and deal with this matter."

"Oh ah?"

Just as Long Qiu was about to nod, he immediately reacted and said uncertainly, "You let me go by myself?"

"Of course, you still can't beat a beast?" Xiao Zhai asked.

"No, no, I..."

The girl was worried at first, and then excited, "Uh, then I'll try?"

"This is not an interrogative sentence, this is an affirmative sentence, you go down the mountain immediately!" Gu Yu said.

"But I want to prepare!" Long Qiu was a little puzzled.

"No need to prepare, let's go!" Xiao Zhai also started to shout.

"I don't know it yet... Hey, brother and sister!"

The poor girl's resistance was futile, and she was kicked out by the two of them in minutes. Just kidding, it's so easy to run into something, how can I not seize the opportunity to let her experience it

Phoenix Mountain Third, to deal with a alienated beast, prepare some wool!

Shengtian, Youth Street.

This street is one of the main roads in the city. At night, it is full of traffic and flashing neon lights, as if it is never dark. But since this month, the hustle and bustle has become much quieter.

The power consumption is too large to afford the supply.

"brush!"

On the broad road, a white car passed quickly. This car is a coupe, full of power and extremely maneuverable, and the old lady who drives is as leisurely and steady as a dog—it is Xiao Jin's mother, Yang Qing.

She had just had a perfect look with a few girlfriends, and was about to go home, not to her husband's house, but to her own. There was no way, I had an argument with my husband in the morning, and I didn't want to answer, so I ran to live in the house I bought.

"Good evening, listeners, everyone is welcome to listen to "Evening Baba" on time. I am Xiangxiang. Before the show starts, I would like to remind everyone. In fact, a notice was issued a few days ago. Due to the shortage of electricity consumption in summer, This month, power outages will begin in slices. From eight o’clock this evening to six o’clock tomorrow morning, 13 streets including Kunshan Road, Shenshan Railway, and Baishan Road will temporarily have power outages. I hope everyone is prepared…”

When Yang Qing heard it, it happened, it happened to be the house, and he had to go to the store downstairs to buy two candles.

"Okay, at the beginning of today's program, let's talk about the Hungry Ghost Festival first. This year's Hungry Ghost Festival came earlier, on August 8th, that is to say, it will be here in about ten days. I am no stranger to paying homage to the ancestors' graves and expressing their grief... "

The host's nonsense came from the radio, Yang Qing listened to it, but slowly lost his mind.

Her family is in the south of the Yangtze River, where the traditions are preserved very well, and there is also her own family ancestral hall. In the past, every major festival, she would worship with her elders, but after marrying to the north, she seldom went back.

Her parents are no longer there, and there is still an older brother in her hometown who looks after her parents' graves. The host suddenly brought up this topic, pulling her thoughts far away...

Sister, let's drive!

"boom!"

It is conceivable that with the shock of the car, Yang Qing suddenly came back to his senses. I heard a bang, as if something was pressed, and at the same time, the tire pressure monitoring reminded: the right rear tire is under-inflated.

"Crunch!"

She hurriedly stopped the car and got down to check it, but she ran over something like a tile, it was broken, it was quite sharp, and it stuck into the tire forcibly.

"Tsk!"

Depressed, Yang Qing pulled out the fragment and threw it aside. She looked around. This place was near Lilac Lake, far from the urban area and very remote.

There is a road in the middle, and there are construction sites on both sides.

She had no choice but to call the police and ask her best friend for help. She found the broken object and stomped on it a few times until it was broken.
