Xingnian Tea House

Chapter 116 The True Identity of Lianyi

Sensing the danger, the Eastern Emperor Bell broke away voluntarily, and hovered over Qiao Xingnian's head. A dark golden defensive cover rose up, with countless runes swimming on it, covering Qiao Xingnian in all directions.

"Puff puff puff", the fine needle hit the defensive cover, causing ripples immediately, but did not cause any damage to the defensive cover, the fine needles fell to the ground one after another, stuck at Qiao Xingnian's feet, and the pitch-black ground seemed to be melted It was normal, with blue-green bubbles and black smoke with a foul smell.

If Qiao Xingnian hadn't returned to his prime, then today's day might be really bad, either he would be tied up like a hedgehog, or his bones would be completely corroded by poison.

Compared to Qiao Xingnian's calmness, Chu Yi found it incredible. Given the gap in cultivation between him and Qiao Xingnian, even with the defense of the Eastern Emperor Bell, it was impossible to resist the attack of the Wanpo Needle.Even if it can withstand the attack of the Myriad Soul Needle, it is impossible to defend against the corruption of voodoo.But let alone killing Qiao Xingnian, even the defense of the Eastern Emperor Bell has not been broken.

"Impossible, it's impossible!"

Chu Yi looked at Qiao Xingnian in disbelief, muttering non-stop.

Qiao Xingnian didn't give him another chance, and in a blink of an eye, he came to Chu Yi's side.

Chu Yi retreated quickly and raised his defensive cover, but under the suppression of absolute strength, what he did was futile.

Qiao Xingnian easily came to his side, easily broke his defense, grabbed his throat, and said contemptuously: "Only you, want to force the deity to give way?"

Chu Yi looked at Qiao Xingnian in horror, and said, "Di... Dijun, what is your cultivation?"

Qiao Xingnian looked at him coldly and said, "Chu Yi, I will give you one last chance. What is the truth about that incident?"

Chu Yi hurriedly said: "I said, I will say anything, as long as you let me live, I will say anything you ask."

"Say."

"Back then I discovered..."

Chu Yi saw that Qiao Xingnian's attention was attracted by him, his arms drooped slightly, and a short sword appeared in his hand, stabbing Qiao Xingnian's chest fiercely.They were very close, and the defensive cover of the Donghuang Bell had been withdrawn. As long as Chu Yi succeeded, Qiao Xingnian would be seriously injured if he didn't die.

Just when he thought he was going to win, Qiao Xingnian grabbed his wrist and pulled his arm forcefully.

With a scream, Chu Yi's arms were crippled, but with his cultivation, as long as he was given enough time, let alone his arms, it would be a breeze to condense his physical body again.

Qiao Xingnian didn't talk nonsense anymore, he put his palm on his Tianling Cap, circulated his spiritual power, extracted his cultivation base, and used it for himself.

At the same time, Chu Yi's memory reappeared in Qiao Xingnian's mind.

Chu Yi was a child of a poor family before his death. With his own efforts, he climbed to the top of power step by step.After enjoying the glory and wealth brought by his power, like so many emperors, he tried his best to live forever. He was lucky enough to be favored by the previous king of Chujiang, and he became a yin queen after his death. Then he took over the position of Chujiang King step by step, and was ranked among the ten halls of Yama.

Although he worked hard enough, his talent was not high. He had cultivated for hundreds of years and hadn't improved at all. He just managed to secure his current position by relying on his good popularity.

But Lian Yi and Si Ye are exactly the opposite of him. One of them was born in a wealthy family, the other was gifted. They came from behind in a short period of time. Not only were they appreciated by the Ghost Emperor, but they also became his confidants. .

Chu Yi was jealous in his heart, and wished that the two of them died unexpectedly, but they didn't show it on the face, and they walked between the two with ease, intentionally or unintentionally stirring up their relationship.

It's just that Si Ye and Lian Yi are loyal to Ghost Emperor, even if they disagree, they won't really do anything to each other.This made Chu Yi annoyed, but there was nothing he could do about it, until he discovered Lian Yi's thoughts about the Ghost Emperor, and he knew his chance had come.

He tried his best to establish a good relationship with Lianyi, gained Lianyi's trust, and let Lianyi confess all his thoughts to him.Afterwards, on the surface, he was worried about Lianyi, and advised him to kill this idea as soon as possible, but intentionally or unintentionally, he talked about the beauty of human feelings, which made him yearn for it.

Then, he told Si Ye about the matter, searched for the Unfeeling Grass everywhere, and then pretended to mention the efficacy of the Unfeeling Pill unintentionally, luring Si Ye to refine the Unfeeling Pill, and then handed the Unfeeling Pill to Lian Yi according to Si Ye's wishes .

After confirming that Lian Yi took the pill, she notified Si Ye and asked him to find an excuse to trick the ghost emperor over, so that Lian Yi failed to take the medicine.

Finally, I will teach Lianyi how to confuse the ghost emperor, because Chu Yi knows that once the ghost emperor falls in love, both he and Lianyi will suffer. With Si Ye's loyalty to the ghost emperor, he will never let Lianyi go. Those who are on his head will suffer all three losses, and he will benefit from it and go further.

After reading Chu Yi's memory, Qiao Xingnian couldn't help but smile wryly. He didn't expect the three of them to fall into the hands of this villain.

All the cultivation bases that had been cultivated for thousands of years were all taken away, and Chu Yi endured not only pain, but also mental torture.His eyes were full of resentment and resentment, but in the face of absolute strength, no matter how unwilling he was, it would be useless, he could only watch himself become useless bit by bit.

"So this is the truth, no wonder Si Ye doesn't want you to speak."

Qiao Xingnian looked at Si Ye with complicated eyes, and heaved a heavy sigh in his heart.

Suddenly, a silver light flickered and flew straight towards Si Ye.

Sensing the earth-shattering power of the silver light, Qiao Xingnian couldn't help but turn pale with shock. He quickly let go of Chu Yi, chanted a spell silently, and knocked out the Eastern Emperor Bell.

In the blink of an eye, Qiao Xingnian had no time to use his full strength. The Donghuang Bell and the silver light collided in front of Si Ye, and the huge shock wave knocked everyone out. Even Qiao Xingnian, who was far away, could not Can't help but stagger.

Looking at the Donghuang Bell again, Si Ye was hit by a silver light, and his body was blown away like a cannonball.

Qiao Xingnian didn't care about other things, his figure flashed, and with all his strength, he finally stopped the silver light. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a silver axe.

Qiao Xingnian looked at it in shock, and couldn't help but say, "Open the sky axe!"

Qiao Xingnian lightly tapped the Eastern Emperor Bell and said, "Go and see how Si Ye is doing."

With a flash of light, the Eastern Emperor Bell disappeared in place.

Qiao Xingnian stood in the air, looking at the rebel camp, and said loudly: "Since the Emperor of Heaven is here, why don't you show up and tell us?"

A man flew out of the crowd of rebels. As he lifted into the air, his ordinary appearance changed, even the plain clothes on his body were the same.

Without saying a word, Murong Cen just raised his hand to give a palm, and the strength of his whole body poured out, pressing towards Qiao Xingnian like overwhelming mountains and seas.

Qiao Xingnian had been on guard for a long time, and silently chanted the spell, the space of the Nineteenth Prison opened up, swallowing all of Murong Cen's power.

Suddenly a powerful suction swept in, sucking everyone present, including the emperor Murong Cen and Qiao Xingnian.

It was still the sea of ​​desert, Qiao Xingnian and Murong Cen were both ghost emperors and heaven emperors, and they fell into the yellow sand in embarrassment.

No matter how high their cultivation base is here, it doesn't matter how high they are. Fighting can only rely on fists and kicks.Qiao Xingnian did this to keep the Hades and save some people from being involved. Even the ghosts in the Wangchuan River should not be the victims of their struggle for power and profit.

Qiao Xingnian patted the sand on his body and said, "Emperor, why are you like this?"

Murong Cen asked instead, "Where is this place?"

"The desert sea of ​​nineteen prisons."

Murong Cen said in amazement: "You can control the Nineteen Prison at will?"

Qiao Xingnian said flatly: "I am the lord of the underworld. I am in charge of all the people and things in the underworld. What's wrong? But the Emperor of Heaven condescends to come to the underworld, not only hiding his identity, but also doing sneak attacks. I'm afraid It does not match the identity of the Emperor of Heaven."

Murong Cen looked unhappy, and rushed towards Qiao Xingnian without saying a word.

Qiao Xingnian was taken aback for a moment, stepped back quickly, and asked, "Emperor Heaven, where did I offend you, let's explain clearly before doing anything."

Murong Cen obviously had no intention of talking nonsense with him, so he raised his hand and punched him in the face.Qiao Xingnian raised his hand to block, feeling baffled in his heart. He really couldn't understand why he had sinned against the Emperor of Heaven. Even if he couldn't use spiritual power, he still had to fight him with bare hands.

Qiao Xingnian didn't want to fight him at first, but Murong Cen didn't intend to talk to him at all. After several fights, he was also beaten up, so he simply shut up and won the fight first.The two of you punched and kicked each other until they were so exhausted that they collapsed to the ground before they stopped.

Qiao Xingnian lay panting on the ground, turned to look at Murong Cen, and saw that a silver protective shield was rising from his body, he couldn't help being startled, then remembered the sky-opening axe, and was relieved.

"Where did this deity offend the Heavenly Emperor and make the Heavenly Emperor so furious?"

Murong Cen gave him a look of displeasure, then stood up, looked around, and said, "How to get out?"

Qiao Xingnian frowned slightly, and said, "Should the Emperor of Heaven hurt the person who is the deity, should he give an explanation?"

"Confession?" Murong Cen sneered, and said, "He broke the rules for harming the world, so why not kill him?"

Qiao Xingnian frowned slightly, which was obviously aimed at him, and said: "The Emperor of Heaven may as well be straightforward, right and wrong, at least let me make it clear."

Murong Cen's face darkened, he was silent for a while, and said, "Lianyi is the son of this deity."

Qiao Xingnian was stunned for a while, and he didn't turn around for a long time. He asked uncertainly, "Is Lianyi the... son of the Emperor of Heaven?"

Qiao Xingnian actually wanted to ask if the Queen Mother knew about this.

This is a bit unbelievable. As the son of the Emperor of Heaven, instead of being his prince in the heaven, he came to the underworld to work as an errand.

If his brain is not sick, then there is a problem with his identity, so Qiao Xingnian subconsciously thought of the above sentence in his mind.

Looking at Qiao Xingnian's face, Murong Cen could tell what he was thinking, and said with a gloomy face, "He is the youngest son of the deity."

After confirming Lian Yi's identity, Qiao Xingnian's expression became strange. Given his relationship with Lian Yi, Murong Cen in front of him was his father-in-law...

"Since Lian Yi is the son of the Emperor of Heaven, why did he appear in the Underworld?"

Ever since Murong Cen knew about the relationship between Qiao Xingnian and Lian Yi, he had always thought of Qiao Xingnian, and was not pleasing to his eyes.Practitioners have a long lifespan, finding a Taoist companion is common, and gender is nothing to them. What he cares about is the majestic Lord of the Underworld, but he failed to protect Lian Yi, let him lose his cultivation, not to mention, A master-servant contract was also established...

But any father would feel uncomfortable when he learned that his son was made such a contract.

What's more, Murong Cen is the emperor of heaven and the lord of the heavens. Just beating Qiao Xingnian is already giving him extra face.

"Let's go out and talk about something."

Qiao Xingnian nodded, and with a thought, the two of them were released from Nineteen Prison. This is indeed not a place to talk.However, Qiao Xingnian did not intend to release the others. The crime of betraying the emperor was enough for them to be imprisoned for [-] years. Let them reflect here and consider whether to release them when they are honest.

As soon as the two of them came out of the Nineteenth Prison, the Eastern Emperor Bell flew over, and Qi Ling said via voice transmission: "Master, Si Ye's physical body was destroyed, leaving only a wisp of Yuanshen, which I put in the Eastern Emperor Bell. "

Qiao Xingnian frowned slightly, looked at Murong Cen, and said, "Heavenly Emperor, there was a rift between Si Ye and Lianyi, and everything was provoked by Chu Yi. Besides, he didn't hurt Lianyi's life. Did the Heavenly Emperor hit harder? "

"Hard to attack?" Murong Cen sneered, and said, "If the deity hadn't left a wisp of spiritual consciousness in Lianyi's sea of ​​consciousness to protect his safety, do you think Si Ye wouldn't kill him? Would he have a wisp of spiritual consciousness? Yuanshen stayed behind, and it was the deity who was merciful. Couldn't the Ghost Emperor be distressed?"

Qiao Xingnian suddenly realized that the vajra mask on Lin Nanyue's body was set by the Emperor of Heaven.The matter has come to this point, and it is unintentional to say more, Si Ye can leave behind a ray of soul, and under the warmth of the Eastern Emperor Bell, he will be reborn one day, which can be regarded as atonement for his previous sins that caused harm to the world.

"Si Ye did something wrong, but he was loyal to me. Even if he faced thousands of troops by himself, he never thought of backing down. The Emperor of Heaven just saw it. I can't turn a blind eye to such loyalty. I believe that if If someone is so loyal to the Emperor of Heaven, the Emperor of Heaven will be the same as me."

"Hmph!" Murong Cen looked at Qiao Xingnian with dissatisfaction, and said, "If that kid hadn't given up on you, I wouldn't have cared about your mess."

Qiao Xingnian was startled, then came back to his senses and said, "The Emperor of Heaven is here to help?"

"The kid regained his memory, used the secret method to get in touch with the deity, and begged the deity to come and help you, saying that your cultivation base is damaged, and that you are not Si Ye's opponent. He is afraid that you will have troubles. He also threatened the deity, saying that he would live and die with you ..."

As soon as this was mentioned, Murong Cen became angry. Everyone said that "the married daughter poured water", and this son is the same, he is a heartless master.

Qiao Xingnian's heart warmed when he heard the words, and he said with a smile: "Then thank you for your help."

As the saying goes, "Stretch out your hand and don't hit a smiling face." With Qiao Xingnian like this, Murong Cen is not easy to get angry, and said: "If I had known that your cultivation base had recovered, I would not have made this trip."

"It's a blessing in disguise." Qiao Xingnian smiled and said, "If the Emperor of Heaven is fine, why not go to the Emperor's Hall for a cup of tea."

"You don't need to drink tea. The mess in the world was caused by you. You can clean it up yourself."

After Murong Cen finished speaking, his figure flashed and disappeared.

The battle came to an abrupt end, and several other Yan Luos who hadn't made their appearance appeared one after another. Under the leadership of Qin Lian, they knelt down on one knee and saluted: "King Qin Guang, King Taishan, King Lunzhuan, please refer to the emperor."

Although these people did not participate in the rebellion, they did not stand firmly on his side either. Qiao Xingnian was inevitably a little disappointed. He glanced at them lightly and said, "Let's get up."

"Thank you, Monarch." The three of them stood nervously, not daring to look up at Qiao Xingnian.

Qiao Xingnian's eyes fell on Qin Lian and said, "King Qin Guang."

Qin Lian's heart tightened, and he quickly bowed and said, "Qin Lian is here."

"Who revealed to Chu Yi that this deity's cultivation base was greatly damaged?"

Qin Lian quickly fell to his knees and said: "Back to the emperor, I have never mentioned this matter to Chu Yi, and I dare not do anything to betray the emperor."

Qin Lian did not do anything outrageous these years, especially after Qiao Xingnian was murdered, he recalled the Donghuang Bell from the Nineteenth Prison, and handed over Black and White Impermanence to him, and after he returned to Hades, he told Regarding the storage of the Lingzhu in his magic tower, although Qin Lian was not as loyal as Si Ye, he was still much better than others.

"Get up." Qiao Xingnian glanced at them lightly, and said, "That's the end of today's matter. If there are still people who are delusional and disobedient in the future, I will put him in the nineteenth prison, and he will never live forever." out."

"Yes, the emperor calms down."

Qiao Xingnian let go of his consciousness, found Chu Yi in the Wangchuan River, and threw him directly into the Nineteenth Prison, where he would feel that life would be worse than death.

"The rebels were all sent to the nineteenth prison, and the affairs of the underworld were temporarily handed over to the three to jointly manage."

"Yes, I will obey your orders."

Qiao Xingnian didn't say any more, and with a thought, he appeared in Hucheng.

Before leaving, Qiao Xingnian set up an enchantment in Hucheng. Since that day, Hucheng has lost contact with the outside world. There is no internet and no mobile phone signal. The people of Hucheng seem to have returned to the 80s.

Not only is there no news from the outside world in Hucheng, but there is also no news from the outside world in Hucheng. The higher-level government/government sent people over. As soon as they approached the boundaries of Hucheng, the vehicle's navigation stopped and the mobile phone had no signal.After searching for three days in a row but failing to find Hucheng, the visitor stopped searching. After reporting what happened to his superiors truthfully, he camped at the place closest to Hucheng with a network signal, waiting for instructions from his superiors.

Qiao Xingnian was walking on the streets of Hucheng, looking at the streets full of people coming and going. The bow-headed people who could be seen everywhere in the past have now put down their mobile phones. People communicate with each other more face-to-face, and no longer rely on the virtual world to fill themselves Instead, he focused on the people and things around him.

After that disaster, although many people left psychological shadows, they also understood a lot of truths, which made them cherish the time with their families even more.

Qiao Xingnian took a taxi. Although he could move there directly, he suddenly wanted to live like an ordinary person like before.

Qiao Xingnian opened the car door and got in the car, saying, "Please go to the Heping Community."

The driver asked curiously: "Heping District? There is going to be demolished there, and everyone has moved out. Why are you going there?"

Qiao Xingnian was stunned, looked at the heavy down jacket on the driver, and said, "Master driver, what date is it today?"

The driver glanced at the date on the car and said, "Today is the 28th, and it will be New Year's Day soon."

"Has it been so long..."

Qiao Xingnian spoke in such a low voice that the driver couldn't hear him, and said, "Where are you going?"

"Go to the Heping District."

Seeing Qiao Xingnian's insistence, the driver didn't say anything, and started the car directly.

"Are you local?"

The car fell silent, and the driver suddenly spoke.

Qiao Xingnian was stunned for a moment, then said, "Yes, my family lives in Heping District."

The driver nodded and said, "I'm not a local. I'm from Gaocheng. I've been in Hucheng for three or four years. My wife and I work here. Our children live with their parents in our hometown. We only see each other during Chinese New Year every year. …I don’t know if I can go back this year.”

Qiao Xingnian smiled and said, "Yes, there is still some time before the Chinese New Year. Maybe everything will return to normal tomorrow."

The driver sighed and said: "I didn't think before that, after that incident, I suddenly wanted to go home, what's the use of making more money, the family is safe and well, staying together is happiness.

If it returns to normal tomorrow, I will go home by car immediately, plant some land at home, do some small business, and just have enough food and drink. "

Qiao Xingnian didn't speak any more, and turned his head to look out the window. If he hadn't experienced the disaster himself and watched the busy traffic outside, no one would have thought of what happened to this city.

"Now there is no signal on the mobile phone, and you can't surf the Internet. Do you feel used to it?"

The driver glanced at the mobile phone on the car, and said with a smile: "I was not used to it at first, and I would always pick up the mobile phone to look at it unconsciously. After a long time, I gradually got used to it, only to realize that I was ignoring my surroundings because of the mobile phone. people and things.

In the past, I always complained to people that the relationship with my wife has faded, and even if the two of them sit together, they have nothing to say.Thinking about it now, it's not that I have nothing to say, but that I am addicted to looking for freshness in the virtual world, ignoring the real people around me.

Now my relationship with my wife has improved. Every day when I go home, I help her with housework, chat with her, and sometimes play chess and cards together.Although life is not as exciting as before, I cherish this hard-won peace very much. "

"Then if everything returns to normal in the future, will you still focus on your wife like you are now?"

The driver nodded and said, "Yes. Only after experiencing loss can I know how to cherish it. No matter how exciting the outside world is, I will never ignore the people around me again."

"Then do you know what caused the disaster?"

"I know a little bit." The driver paused, and then said: "It should have something to do with the cyberbullying of the boss of the Internet Red Tea House. It is said that the boss of the teahouse committed suicide because of the cyberbullying, and turned into a ghost to take revenge on those who raped him. All those people have beat him online with rhythm."

"Then do you think those people died unjustly?"

The driver thought for a while and said, "To be honest, I hated him a lot at first. If it wasn't for him, my wife wouldn't have become disabled. After thinking about it, if it wasn't for the cyberbullying, I wouldn't be alone. He would commit suicide. If I were in his position, I would have made the same choice as him, so I wouldn’t hate him anymore.

As for those who died, I don’t think they were wronged. They forced a person to death with a keyboard, and they were also murderers. "

The two of them were chatting, time passed unknowingly, and soon came to the gate of Heping Community.

Qiao Xingnian wanted to pay, but forgot that there is no internet on his mobile phone, so he couldn't pay online at all. He said awkwardly, "Sorry, I don't have my wallet with me. Can you wait a minute, I'll go up and get it for you."

The driver smiled and said, "It's fine if you don't bring it with you. It's fun to chat with you. Let's treat it as a friend."

Qiao Xingnian took out a talisman from the Donghuang Bell, folded it into a triangular shape, and handed it to the driver, "This is the peace talisman I asked for. It was because of it that I saved my life. This is the fare. Give it to you."

The driver's eyes lit up. Ever since he really saw a ghost, his three views have also been subverted, and he has also started to believe in ghosts and gods.

If Qiao Xingnian hadn't lied, then the value of this talisman is much more than the car money.

"If you gave it to me, wouldn't you be gone?"

It can be seen that the driver is a good person, Qiao Xingnian said with a smile; "I still have one, this one will be given to you."

The driver took the amulet and said, "Then I will accept it, thank you."

"You are welcome! See you."

The driver didn't say any more, and drove away quickly.

Qiao Xingnian turned to look at the gate of the community. The original guard was gone, but there were still many people coming in and out.

He walked straight into the community and walked on the familiar small road. The people coming and going were all unfamiliar faces. Most of them were described as embarrassing. They should be people living at the bottom of society. They can't pay the rent and can only live in abandoned or pending demolition. in the house.

Arriving at the door of the house, Qiao Xingnian went straight through the door.
