Long Shen shook his head: "I'll just sleep."

After all, he saw that the winter solstice was still worried, and he stretched out his finger to point at the center of his eyebrows. "Would you like to let you investigate?"

Winter Solstice blushed a bit, backed away. "You don't use this to escape the topic."

There was a little more smile in Long Shen's eyes. "I don't. The repair ability of the tool spirit is stronger than ordinary people. I have had some opportunities, so my energy will be better."

Winter Solstice said seriously: "But you are not an immortal after all."

Long Shen nodded: "Yes."

Inside and outside the Special Administration Bureau, many people regard him as an omnipotent and powerful being, but since he is not an immortal, he will definitely be injured and tired.

He didn't need to be friends, he could clearly feel the worry on the winter solstice's face.

Only this person, who really regards him as a person, will be concerned and worried, just like Long Shen is now slowly beginning to realize those feelings that he has never experienced before, soft and soft, soft into a ball, ironing into his heart .

"I'm measured. Song En spent decades, but only used magic to open a hole in the abyss."

After returning from Xianda Village, it was the first time I heard him talk about the abyss passage in detail on the winter solstice. Hearing this, he wondered: "If the energy of the passage is strong enough, can the true body of Bo Beiye be able to follow him?"

Long Shen said: "Theoretically yes. But Song En couldn't do it, because it wasn't the entrance to the abyss. He walked against the sky by himself, collected souls and summoned demonic energy, and after the demonic energy condensed to a certain level, It is transplanted into the human abdomen, and the human body is used to give birth to a magical fetus."

The Winter Solstice was stunned when he heard it, and when he regained his senses, he couldn't help but change color: "He uses a human belly as a passage?!"

Long Shen nodded: "When I went to that room, I saw the woman he used to give birth to the demon, her belly was already seven or eight months old, and the demon fetus would be born soon, we went one step earlier, the difference between Yin and Yang The mistake caused the demon to be born early, and the power is not as good as expected. But even if it is born as scheduled, Popeye will only be a phantom clone in the end, because Song En's sorcery is doomed to its limitations from the beginning."

"So, it's not difficult to seal the abyss passage, don't worry."

After all, he gently scraped the other party's smooth chin, and touched a touch of temperature on his fingertips. It seemed that this method gave both parties the same sense of security.

Long Shen began to understand why those couples like to express their love by hugging or kissing, not necessarily because of sex, but because the temperature of the other party can convey their feelings when they are in physical contact, making the other party feel dependent and warm. Slowly can understand this behavior.

So Long Shen thought for a while, hugged him, patted him on the back again, and repeated: "Don't worry."

This person in his arms is special to him.

In the beginning, was the only apprentice, wanted the other party to grow up quickly, hoped that the winter solstice would not be afraid of any wind and rain, and later——

When he thinks of each other, he can't help but feel happy and happy. Long Shen once thought that it was the same as Wu Bingtian or Song Zhicun showing off his apprentice's children, but later, he found out that it was different.

At the very least, he knew that when Wu Bingtian or Song Zhicun treated their favorite junior, they would definitely not have the idea of ​​having a relationship with each other, kissing each other, and hoping to spend the rest of their lives with him.

Winter Solstice is not unmoved, but he frowned slightly, feeling that something was wrong.

"Master, are you hiding something from me?"

"No, wait for you to take Qingdan before going to bed, practice breathing again, and don't miss the morning class tomorrow." Long Shen said, his tone was flat, the same as before, he released his hand and patted the other's waist , indicating the winter solstice to sit down.

Winter Solstice: "What about you?"

Long Shen returned with a puzzled expression, not understanding what he was talking about.

"You won't leave the capital during this time, right?" Dongzhi confirmed to him.

"Of course, I was devoured by demonic energy when I blocked the abyss passage, and I have to recuperate, just like you."

Winter Solstice: "I remember that when you dealt with the bone dragon in Changbai Mountain, He Yu said that you were injured. Have you healed your old wounds?"

Long Shen nodded: "After all, I was transformed by an artifact, my body is different from ordinary people, and my recovery speed is faster than that of ordinary people. Otherwise, the abyss passage would not have been sealed so quickly."

The winter solstice finally relieved and smiled: "You haven't eaten tonight, why don't I order some barbecues?"

Long Shen was actually not hungry, but he still said yes, and the other party was happier, he ordered BBQ takeaway and beer directly on his mobile phone, and then ran downstairs to get it.

The winter solstice was already prepared for the untimely death of his head, and he was mentally prepared for his untimely death. Now, after the catastrophe, it is inevitable that he would be lucky to have his life back. He knew that Longshen was a good drinker, and he dragged him to drink a lot of beer. , and turned on the singing talent show again, and followed the singers on TV to sing love songs to Long Shen.

After listening to him sing half of the song with the voices in the show, Long Shen could actually hum a few words along with him.

Long Shen must be in a good mood tonight, otherwise, even if he said these two sentences, he would never have made a sound.

Winter Solstice almost thought his master had been dropped.

"Master, have you never sang before? I remember He Yu likes to ask people to sing."

Long Shen shook his head as expected: "I haven't been to them, if it doesn't sound good, then I won't sing."

"No no no!" Dongzhi hurriedly said, holding his face and sending a particularly sincere look, "It's very nice, your voice is very suitable for this song, I just never heard you sing, you sing it again, OK?"

The apprentice's soft tone rang in his ears, and Long Shen looked at his drunken eyes and smiled.

If you are the fireworks of the sea,

I am the foam of the spray.

At one point your light illuminated me.

If you are a distant galaxy,

Bright enough to make you want to cry,

I'm chasing your eyes,

Always look at the night sky when you are alone.

...

Long Shen has an excellent memory. After listening to it only once, he can actually sing seven, seven or eight. Maybe there are mistakes in tones and words, but Dongzhi doesn't care about it at all. speak out.

Don't even think about it, this must be the first time Long Shen opened his mouth to sing. His master has broken few cases in his life, and almost all of them should be on him. The Winter Solstice feels that even in a few years or even decades, he will not be able to do it. Forget today's scene.

However, in the end, he still couldn't listen to Long Shen sing a song completely. The exhaustion of his body and the effect of alcohol, after hearing half of it, he just fell asleep.

"Go back to bed." Long Shen patted his cheek.

Winter Solstice hummed in confusion, moved slightly, but failed to open his eyes.

Seeing him like this, Long Shen knew that he was extremely tired, so he didn't scream any more, he picked him up, placed him on the bed in the bedroom, and covered him with a quilt.

The wine is not intoxicating and people are self-intoxicating. Long Shen is actually a little drunk. Maybe the atmosphere tonight is too good. It is different from the whim at the seaside, and it is also different from the preoccupation on the eve of the fight with Song En. The moment is peaceful and beautiful, plain and true. , is a feeling that Long Shen has never thought of, even if he doesn't say anything, looking at the sleeping face of the winter solstice, he can also feel a faint joy in his heart.

Just like, he used to guard the world, but the world is vast after all, and human beings are only a broad term, but now, there is an exact object in the vague concept, the winter solstice is both a part of the world and independent of the world. It's not a contradiction, but a surprise.

Unconsciously, Long Shen leaned on the head of the bed and fell asleep for a while.

When woke up again, the clock on the wall had reached midnight.

He looked sideways, the winter solstice dream was in full swing, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and he didn't know what kind of dream he had.

Pulling up the quilt that had slipped off his shoulders, Long Shen quietly got out of bed, passed through the mess of cups and plates in the living room, and left the room.

Time passed slowly on the rooftop. At this moment, it was still the scenery of the flowing clouds reflecting the autumn water in the evening. Long Shen waved his hand, the flowing clouds flew by, and instantly changed into night, and countless stars flickered, illuminating the whole sky.

"The sunset is infinitely good, why did it change the night?" A person walked around behind the rock, and he saw that Zong Ling was also there.

"I didn't know you were there." Long Shen said, "Return to the original state?"

"Forget it." Zong Ling waved her hand, "I just got bored and came up to breathe, the scenery is the same, is the little winter solstice okay?"

Long Shen nodded: "He's gone, he's safe and sound."

Zong Ling looked at him for a moment, then suddenly smiled: "You guys are reconciled? Are you not angry with him anymore?"

Long Shen hummed softly.

Zong Ling smiled and said, "What did I say at that time? Don't let your heart down, you listened, I'm very happy. Life is too short, and the lifespan of the monsters is too long, so often you don't know how to cherish it. Wait until you react. , it's too late for people."

Long Shen bowed his hands to her and silently expressed his gratitude.

If it wasn't for Zong Ling's wake-up call, it is very likely that he would not be able to take that step until now, or even a long time later.

"Elder Zong is in a bad mood?"

Zong Ling has lived for thousands of years, and her mental concentration is very comparable. She will be here in the middle of the night. Long Shen can only guess that she has encountered a very difficult thing.

"No, I'm just looking at my fate." Zong Ling said slowly.

Long Shen's heart skipped a beat.

Seeing his dignified expression, Zong Ling laughed instead: "There are still five declines in heaven and man, and any life has its ups and downs. I have lived for so long. If my longevity is equal to that of heaven, wouldn't it be abnormal?"

Long Shen was silent for a moment: "We met the car bureau in Yinchuan before, and he said that his lifespan was approaching."

Zong Ling sighed: "If he has no will to survive, no matter how long his destiny is, it will be useless. I am not like him. After I transformed into a human, I lived for thousands of years, and it was time to enter the reincarnation of God's exhaustion. Originally, I wanted to go to Japan in person, but I don't know when my strength will be completely exhausted, and I dare not drag you down. Strong, I'm afraid they won't be able to fight Otoyu."

Long Shen said: "I will go."

Zong Ling was surprised and immediately rejected: "No, it's too risky for you alone!"

Long Shen: "And Wu Bingtian and Tang Jing, they will also go together."

Zong Ling's face was solemn: "Actually, I have always suspected that the reason why Otowa Yuhiko became a demon may be that he obtained a certain magic weapon and explored its secrets, and obtained a steady stream of power from it, so that he is so unscrupulous. If this is the case, this Humans will never be easier to deal with than other monsters and beasts you have encountered before. Unfortunately, I was in a dormant period at the time and didn't walk around the world, otherwise I should have been able to detect it earlier."

Longshen nodded: "Not only that, we suspect that he wants to destroy the stone tablet, probably to completely open the abyss passage. You are the longest living monster in the world. Do you know anything about the Demon Subduing Formation? "

Zong Ling smiled bitterly: "Xiankun and the others have asked me this question several times. The history of the Demon Conquering Formation is longer than my life span. After the era of ancient gods, the great powers fell and retired. At that time, I was still a little-known monster. Who would tell me about the ups and downs? If it becomes a legend, the existence of the stele is even more unknown, and maybe a few words have been passed down, but I really don’t know.”

"However, when I was a child, I heard from my father and grandfather that there were several wars in ancient times. One of them was when a demon was born, which almost destroyed the sky and the earth. Later, the place where the three worlds meet was completely sealed off, and the spiritual energy of this world gradually gradually increased due to this. It is going to be exhausted, so you should have also discovered that after the Tang and Song dynasties, there are fewer and fewer records of immortality and ascension, not because human intelligence is degenerating, but because the spiritual energy in the world is weakening."

If the demon-subduing formation formed by the stone tablet is the seal leading to the abyss and hell, it would be understandable for Otowa Hatohiko to do everything possible to destroy the stone tablet-he wanted to release something more powerful than the sneaky Yaksha, the human demon, and even the phantom avatar of Popeye. Great Demon. Maybe it's the complete body of Popeye, maybe it's the demon god of the abyss, even Zongling has no way of knowing.

She raised her head, and the dark clouds drifted over at some point, covering the glittering stars, the sky and the earth were dark, and the wind and rain were about to come.

A huge crisis is approaching.

And she, whose fate is near, lingering on, what else can she do for this world?

Even if the world is full of human **, the cruelty and viciousness caused by human nature are often worse than those of monsters.

But this is the world that gave birth to her, the place where her beloved once existed, as well as Longshen and the Winter Solstice, and countless people she has placed good expectations on. Zong Ling does not want to see all this destroyed.

"I'll go to Che Bai, go to Kunlun with him, and look for array eyes." Zong Ling said.

She turned around and looked at Long Shen, "If you get news about the formation, let us know immediately."

"Okay." Long Shen paused for a while, and rarely showed hesitation: "I don't want to tell the Winter Solstice about this for the time being, please keep it a secret for me."

Zong Ling was slightly startled: "Why?"

Long Shen said: "He is about to lead the team to the exchange conference, I don't want him to be distracted by it."

Zong Ling revealed his thoughts in one sentence: "You are just afraid that he will be worried. If he finds out, he will definitely ask to go with you. You don't want him to take risks. Long Shen, you finally have the selfish desire to protect someone. If you just treat him as an apprentice, you should hope that he will face the wind and rain, even if his head is broken and he loses his life, he will live up to his original intention."

Is that so?

Long Shen could not refute.

indeed so.

The experience and competition of the exchange conference is naturally life-threatening, but he believes that the winter solstice can handle it.

Just like the last time went to Song En, Long Shen didn't say anything, but he was sure, so he went with someone.

But during his trip to Japan, Long Shen was not sure that he could protect him.

"Sorry." He said to Zong Ling.

There was a slight sympathy in Zong Ling's eyes. "You don't need to say sorry, it's natural. When you love someone, you want him to be safe and sound, and even if you roll in the sea of ​​swords and flames, you don't want him to get the slightest spark."

Winter Solstice didn't know what happened last night. When he woke up, Long Shen was still beside him, sleeping peacefully in his clothes.

For fear of waking the other party, he quietly lifted the quilt to get out of bed, but as soon as his body moved, Long Shen woke up.

"Master, are you going to work today?"

Long Shen's voice carried a dash of drowsiness: "No need."

The winter solstice smiled and gave him a good morning kiss.

This is a habit formed after the confession. The habit becomes natural. Long Shen has been familiar from the beginning, and when he came over, he slightly raised his chin to accept it.

"Then sleep a little longer! I'll go to the rooftop to do my morning class, lest you nag me again." The winter solstice quickly put on his clothes and went into the bathroom to wash his face and brush his teeth.

From the moment he woke up, the picture seemed to become lively and vivid, and Long Shen stared at his background until it disappeared, then closed his eyes again.

The winter solstice stayed on the rooftop for a full two hours.

One of his hands was still covered in plaster, but it did not affect his performance. The Changshou Sword was temporarily taken away by the master, but Long Shen gave him the Green Master Sword, which he used first in his usual practice.

Qingzhujian is also an old friend to him, so it is natural to be handy, but what surprises the Winter Solstice is the change that has taken place in him.

After the Peach Blossom Ghost Face was degraded, his ability seemed to have also improved to a higher level. The most obvious contrast was that he used the sword to use the sword, and the qi was free to go out with the sword. The power of the sword was much greater than before. It seems that the brewing time required by Lei Zhengfa to trigger the mine has been shortened.

The winter solstice is very clear about his own situation. He knows that he is talented and works hard enough to keep making progress, but this progress is orderly, like going up the stairs, one step at a time, and this time it seems After walking two steps, I still feel exhausted.

He thought back for a long time, and finally felt that the root cause should be the last time when Che Bai helped him suppress his head, and it seemed that his body also benefited.

With the lifting of the head down, the threat alarm in the body was lifted, and the ability naturally exerted ten percent.

Now that a sword passed, Hong Lian pierced the air, and the big stone not far away quickly cracked, and it split into two halves with a bang.

Before he could feel the slightest sense of accomplishment, his stomach growled in disgrace.

Regardless of whether it is a Sword Saint or a Sword Immortal, eating is the first priority.

When he returned to the dormitory, Long Shen was no longer there. The bed was neatly tidied up, as if no one had ever slept on it. Even the upper and lower folds of the quilt were regular parallel lines. Winter Solstice suspected that his master might have been in the army before. Otherwise, it would be impossible to have such a powerful obsessive-compulsive disorder.

He sent a message to Long Shen and asked him where he was, and he got a reply in a short while. The other party said that he was in a meeting and had breakfast in the kitchen, so he asked him to pick it up.

Long Shen did say that he didn't have to go to work today, but he didn't say that he didn't have to have a meeting. He thought helplessly about the winter solstice. He went to the kitchen and saw that there were soy milk fritters and steamed buns, the most common breakfast, but soy milk and steamed buns were warmed in a rice cooker. Take a bite out, the meat in the bun filling is still warm.

On the second day of his cohabitation routine, he began to live a fed life.

On the winter solstice, snuggled up comfortably on the sofa, took out mobile phone and started to read information - changed a temporary mobile phone card when went abroad, and have no time to open mobile phone until now after returning.

When he was working in a game company, besides painting, he only played games. Sometimes he worked overtime too late to go home. With such a life, their project manager is always picky, always making some repeated and harsh requirements, so he simply resigned and went out on the winter solstice, and went on a trip after saying that he would leave.

But was already tired of the life at that time. Looking back on it now, it is not a kind of comfort and happiness. It is only after experiencing a lot of bullets that will cherish the short-term peace now.

Except for him and Long Shen, the rest of the second group are still out of town. During the winter solstice in the second group, they said that they had returned to Beijing. He Yu and Kan Chaosheng began to scream, and Zhong Yu’s reflex arc was too long to reply too slowly. He Yu didn't see a word for a long time, and He Yu posted a few photos one after another, saying that he was now looking for the whereabouts of the stone monument near Zijin Mountain, and Kan Chaosheng said that he had swam a few times in the Qinhuai River recently, and he did not see the ghost of the stone monument. shadow.

On the winter solstice, he told Long Shen about the experience of killing the phantom avatar in Xianda Village. He Yu responded quickly, and immediately said that the boss must have guessed that this demon is not the deity of the demon, so he only brought the four of you. Kill it.

It is estimated that he didn't have much chance to speak when he was away from home. He Yu could never stop talking, and he didn't type word by word on the keyboard, and directly threw a large paragraph of speech.

He Yu: And according to my speculation, the stone tablet formation we are looking for now should be related to the real abyss and hell, so Otowa Jiuhiko has no fear and does not cooperate with Song En at all, just because he feels that he has a bigger hole card!

His voice was accompanied by the sound of the wind, triumphant and confident, it was the familiar old He in the winter solstice impression.

Thinking about the winter solstice, it really is.

Yamamoto Kiyoshi is Fujikawa Aoi's senior brother. He betrayed his teacher and ran to Southeast Asia to hang out with Song En. He wanted to be the master of the gods. Since Fujikawa Aoi was Otowa Hatohiko's lackey, it was impossible for Otowa to not know, but he didn't. He chose to join forces with Song En, but they were two-way people from beginning to end. It can be seen that Otoyu didn't take Song En's petty troubles into his eyes at all. He firmly believed that what he was doing was the greatest cause.

He has been planning for so many years, since after World War II to the present, it has been kept secret and unknown. Until now, the conspiracy has gradually surfaced. Yu Buregai and Li Ying went to Japan. Can they really kill Otoyu and make him stop all this?

I'm afraid it will be difficult.

Lenovo felt that Long Shen's attitude was a little unusual last night, and the winter solstice felt a little stunned.

He hurriedly said to He Yu: Old He, I won't tell you, I have something to do, see you later!

He Yu: ? ? ? why are you going!

Winter Solstice couldn't care to reply to him again.

Poor He Yu managed to catch someone to talk to, and before he had enough fun, he ran away on the winter solstice.

On the winter solstice, the leisurely and leisurely mood just now was gone, so just put on a coat and ran upstairs.

He ran all the way to the outside of the conference room. The heavy door blocked all sounds. It was not easy to push the door in on the winter solstice to disturb him, so he could only wait outside.

After finally waiting for the door to open, a strange man and a woman came out.

The two sides had a face-to-face encounter, both stunned.
