The Old Gods Are Whispering

When Gu Jianlin heard that name, he fell into silence again.

Chen Bojun explained with a smile: "The old man has been thinking about you for many years. It's just that we suspected at the beginning that the curse of your family might be avoided by being an ordinary person. So there has been no one Get close to you, for fear that you will wake up accidentally."

"This is actually very difficult, because your family has been sublimated without exception in history. I heard from your father that the cousin of his second uncle's cousin also wanted to avoid the curse in this way until he was thirty-nine. I didn't wake up at the age of 40. As a result, I passed through the night before my 40th birthday, squatting in a pit."

He spread his hands: "The next day, people will be taken to the crematorium."

The corners of Gu Jianlin's eyes twitched slightly.

"You can also ask Mr. Huai more about the curse."

Chen Bojun said: "Mr. Huai is the only one who can help you."

Gu Jianlin hummed.

"There is one more thing. Although Mr. Huai means that he still hopes that you will continue to stay in the association and join my Omega sequence. But I think that you may be very disappointed with the association now."

Chen Bojun asked: "Do you still want to stay in the association? I have to remind you that the Omega Sequence and the Inquisition are two completely different departments. We are in charge of war, and they are in charge of...you understand."

Gu Jianlin pondered for a moment, although the feeling left by the Aether Association was poor.

I just have to admit that there are still many good people in the association.

With the approval of the King of Green, Gu Jianlin could indeed walk away.

But he felt that this was an escape.

Because besides Uncle Mu, there may be many such poor people.

What's more, now that he has mastered the power, he can do something from the inside.

Some people are depraved, but their hearts are not depraved.

There are also people who have not fallen, but their hearts have fallen.

Gu Jianlin possessed the power of an ancient god.

Also has the blood of the ancient gods.

Now that he has also learned mind control, he can do many things that he couldn't do before.

The efficiency of external strikes is far inferior to the internal collapse.

What's more, he has only just stepped into the extraordinary world, and there are still many things he has never seen.

Elementary school teachers have taught that people must be down-to-earth.

Learn more, see more, witness more.

If Gu Jianlin hadn't come to Heiyun Walled City, he wouldn't have understood the suffering of those people in the refuge.

"I will stay with the association."

He said seriously: "What I deserve, there is no need to give up because of some rubbish."

"Very well, I like your sharpness."

Chen Bojun praised: "I know you are very dissatisfied with the Ethereum Association now, but all of this is because of the imbalance of our internal factions. The larger the organization, the easier it is to decay, and the more different voices will appear."

Gu Jianlin had studied history and politics and understood this truth.

"Each generation of Omega is an opportunity for change."

Chen Bojun said earnestly: "The time for the president is short, she will cultivate a strongest successor before she leaves, and the person appointed by default is the supreme leader of the Tribunal, Rhine. Including the leader of the night watchman, Lin Dong, before They are also competing for this position. If the Omega of your generation can soar into the sky in the Qilin Immortal Palace, it is not impossible."

Gu Jianlin was thoughtful.

"The Qilin Fairy Palace is about to open up wasteland, and Omega from all over the world will gather in Fengcheng."

Chen Bojun got up and said: "The Omega sequence is a big stage, I hope you can shine. Even if you wake up late, you can still make a lot of money. For example, the princess who guarded you at night, her rank She is not high under her deliberate suppression, and she is only about to be promoted to the fourth rank recently, but she is a strong contender for the next president."

Gu Jianlin was slightly taken aback: "His Royal Highness?"

"From the sword mound in the north, the snow-covered ancient sect, the proud and cold princess Her Royal Highness."

Chen Bojun pointed out the window: "The King of Green wanted to take her as his apprentice, so he almost got into a fight with the King of Silver."

Gu Jianlin turned his head and looked out the window at the lonely night.

Accompanied by the roar of the helicopter, the propeller wings cut through the wind and rain all over the sky, and galloped away.

There were gray hairs fluttering in the cabin, and they threw an arrogant look.

"In the president's favorite list, Her Royal Highness is the youngest and the lowest in rank. It's just for some reason that many families and sublimation organizations that control the world behind the scenes want to invest in her."

Chen Bojun smiled and said: "I don't know why she pays attention to you, anyway, take care of it."

Gu Jianlin always felt that this person misunderstood something.

And it's a little strange that the competition for the position of president should be around the ninth rank.

Lei Ting only has Tier 3, so for some reason he was selected.

"It's time for me to go. There are some things in the association that need to be rectified, and I have to go and talk to the trial court."

Chen Bojun's eyes calmed down: "By the way, I have something to ask you."

Gu Jianlin said calmly, "Please tell me."

Chen Bojun asked: "The total amount of good and evil in this world is always balanced. If you insist on going down this road, you will see more injustice. You can't stand up for everyone, and you can't eradicate all. evil, then what is the meaning of your doing this?"

Gu Jianlin thought for a while: "Do you need meaning?"

Chen Bojun was taken aback.

"I stood up this time for the dignity of a father, for the kindness of a little girl, and for the forbearance and restraint of the people in the refuge. Maybe it's not all for them."

Gu Jianlin said softly, "I just... don't want to appease that cowardly me."

Chen Bojun sighed: "You are really conceited."

"This is my own business."

Gu Jianlin was silent for a long time, then suddenly said, "Actually, I also have a question."

Chen Bojun raised his eyebrows: "Huh?"

Gu Jianlin asked seriously: "Is that thing in the underground palace under the sea really an ancestor?"

Chen Bojun thought for a while: "You are the student of the King of Green, so it's okay to tell you. Although the specific identity cannot be confirmed, it is certain that he is the ancestor of the Zhulong clan. The purpose of existence may be to guard the Qilin fairy palace. The deepest Qilin Venerable."

Gu Jianlin frowned and asked, "You fought him before, but you didn't see it clearly?"

"Yes, this is also my lack of ability, and I can't get close to his body."

Chen Bojun said with a wry smile: "Although he doesn't know who was hit hard, he is no longer at the peak. But he is frantically trying to recover his strength. If I don't expect, he should have transformed a few god servants to work for him. Some are busy."

Too bad, none of this is dead.

After a moment of silence, Gu Jianlin said, "I also saw a lot of Gu worms in the underground palace."

Chen Bojun's pupils narrowed slightly: "I see."

Gu Jianlin hesitated for a moment, took the paper and pen from the hospital bed, and carefully sketched on it.

"I have seen the ancestor in the Qilin Immortal Palace."

He said seriously: "I once profiled the appearance of the ancestor of the ghost car, so I don't think I can get it wrong."

Chen Bojun took the sketch with an extremely solemn expression.

"I see, is there anything else I need?"

Gu Jianlin thought for a while: "If possible, there really is."

At dawn, the storm-washed sky is as pure and clear as the sea.

The glass windows of the ward reflected hazy cloud shadows and skylight, and a ray of sunlight fell on the curtains floating with the wind, casting a shadow on the white hospital bed. The light and darkness were so harmonious and peaceful.

Gu Jianlin stood in the ward, his face pale like a ghost.

There are two beds in the room, separated by a white curtain.

Uncle Mu was wrapped in bandages, like a mummy, connected with various cables. The data displayed on the instrument next to him was quite normal. He had indeed passed the dangerous period, but he was very weak.

Wan Wan curled up on the hospital bed, wrapped in a quilt, only showing a cute little face, and a violet crystal pendant hanging around her neck.

She was like a kitten, trembling as she dreamed of something.

Maybe what happened today scared her so much that she had a nightmare.

At this time, Wan Wan suddenly moved, revealing her scarred little hands.

Gu Jianlin was stunned.

"what is that?"

Standing by the side, Chen Bojun was obviously also taken aback.

Gu Jianlin didn't speak, because he didn't know what to say.

In Wan Wan's hand, she tightly held the half broken wood carving, which was attached to her chest like a treasure.

She still remembers her promise and is waiting for the man who can't come back to come back.

I really don't know how she managed to get the broken wood carving back in that situation.

Gu Jianlin could avenge her, and he could help her vent her anger and kill those who bullied him.

Even tit for tat, stomping on the opponent's dog's head.

It's like that little wooden sculpture was crushed by that trash.

However, the hurt the little girl suffered, the painstaking efforts for so long, and even her self-esteem and kindness were trampled on.

And she didn't hurt anyone, but she saw the ugliest side of human nature.

This damage is irreparable.

Gu Jianlin took a closer look at the wood carving, it was completely handmade by herself, without any help from anyone else, because it was a gift she had promised to give out by herself.

She is young, doesn't know how to carve at all, and her hands are a bit clumsy.

Maybe I don't know how many carvings were broken in the middle to make such a barely human appearance.

Gu Jianlin could even imagine that in the dark basement, with the help of the fire when cooking, she used a carving knife to trim and trim the wood carving clumsily, and even hurt her hands from time to time.

Why did she only go back to do the wood carving when cooking, because firelight is a scarce resource in that shelter, and she didn't have many matches left.

"My father is really an important person to her, right?"

Gu Jianlin said softly.

"Maybe so."

Chen Bojun frowned, and sighed: "I'll think of a way, I can apply for a mythical weapon..."

When Wanwan woke up from her sleep, she got up in a panic.

She thought she was still in Heiyun Walled City, engulfed by the burning fire, watching her family members being persecuted and killed.

Especially the scene where the father is bloodied and chained to the ground.

It enveloped her like a nightmare.

But when the sun fell on her face, she froze.

This is the sunshine after the rain, falling on her little face, warm.

The delicate ward is rendered into a beautiful golden color by the sunlight.

In the six years of her life, in all memory, this was the second time she had seen the sun.

Mu Feng was lying on the hospital bed next to him, wrapped up like a mummy, breathing evenly.

How is this going?

Wan Wan blinked her nimble eyes, and suddenly froze.

On the bedside table, the wooden box that belonged to her has been found.

Matchboxes, carving knives, butterfly hairpins, compasses, shabby teddy bears.

In addition, there is a brand new pink sweater on the side.

She had never seen such new clothes.

Wan Wan suddenly looked down at her palm.

The trampled wooden sculpture had recovered as before, and the sun fell on that ugly face.

As if smiling at her.

Magic City, Deep Space Headquarters.

On the top floor of this building affiliated to the Ether Association, countless phantoms of light shards lit up in the dark conference room. Without exception, they are the sublimators who maintain the order of the real world and the cornerstone of the human world.

The president, the six generals who guard the inheritance of mankind, and the inspectorate who manage internal affairs.

The two vice-chairmen, as well as their respective Tribunal and Night Watchmen.

And the ministers of the thirteen jurisdictions of Fengcheng.

Almost all of them are the cornerstone of maintaining the order of the human world.

But now, they were all staring at the girl in the meeting room, silent.

"In short, that's all I can give you about the incident in the Undersea Palace."

Sitting on the office chair, Tang Ling didn't show much respect for these people, but just lowered her head and fiddled with the phone:

"Because the gatekeeper left the Undersea Palace, many people have entered the Qilin Immortal Palace from the dimensional rift over the years, so some things in the Ancient God Realm may also be triggered to wake up, and may even have access to information from the outside world."

"This is not a good thing for the land reclamation of the Qilin Immortal Palace. After all, you have always believed that the advantage of humans fighting the ancient gods is that the civilization of human society is constantly changing."

"As for the accident in Heiyun Walled City, I can only say that the Yan family's garbage deserves death, and so do the captains they recruited. Such people are greedy for profit and have no ability themselves. They are just moths."

"I don't think there is anything wrong with killing them, let alone a group of aberrants."

Her Royal Highness's attitude was quite arrogant, as if she didn't pay attention to the high-level people present at all.

The upper echelons of the Ethereum Association remained silent.

"The style of the Inquisition is particularly unpleasant."

Tang Ling raised her beautiful eyes and said in a cold voice: "Senior Mu Feng's case requires a fair investigation and trial, and the behavior of the trial court has violated my bottom line. Since this incident happened before my eyes, I won't turn a blind eye."

She paused: "Especially Li Qingsong, I hope he can live until the day I am promoted to the sixth rank."

Disrespectful.

If there are other unsuspecting investigators here, they will be sweating profusely.

A mere junior dares to talk to the high-level people like that.

It's just that if you know her background, it won't be surprising.

Tang Ling is also from a family, and her family background is not strong, but her mentorship is terrifying.

Sword Mound.

The owner of the Sword Tomb is the King of Silver.

One of the natural disasters of our time.

In addition, the president favors her very much, and intends to train her as his successor.

That's why she has developed such an arrogant and arrogant character.

"Lei Ting is right. Everyone knows that the vast majority of people joining our order are not for the purpose of contributing to the human world, but for their own promotion. Families like the Yan family are moths purely for profit. That's all."

"We allow someone to benefit, but we cannot allow waste to corrupt our order."

"The Inquisition went too far this time."

"The trial court went too far? Why don't you tell me that the child will be punished without asking?"

"In that case, there is no room for interrogation, right? Facts speak louder than words, not to mention that Qing has already come forward."

As long as the Green King is mentioned, the high-level members of the Ethereum Association will fall silent.

An old man from the Night Watchman said with emotion: "Speaking of which, Huaiyin hasn't taken any disciples for many years."

"It's just a reminder, how long can the person Qing likes live?"

Someone snorted coldly: "In the beginning, the curse of the Gu family was so evil. That young man's life was only forty years old. Now he is attracted by a lunatic like Qing. If he can live past twenty, he is really unlucky."

One of the saints in the trial court said indifferently: "The King of Blue is bound by the scourge of heaven, so don't worry. Lord Rhine has already sent someone to Fengcheng, and I will ask him what he means."

The meeting room was dead silent, and no one would talk too much about this kind of issue.

well known.

——When the Ancient Sovereign is not alive, the Green King is the greatest danger in the human world.

Tang Ling listened to the high-level conversation with her chin on her hand, narrowing her beautiful eyes slightly.

quite a while.

The President’s majestic and cold voice sounded:

"Don't mention Qing's matter again, now I want to know the identity of the ancestor in Qilin Immortal Palace."

The top executives of the Ethereum Association looked at each other in blank dismay.

"Sorry, President."

Finally someone bit the bullet and said, "We failed to predict the result."

After a short silence, the majestic and lonely phantom floated at the end of the darkness, casting a furious glance.

Obviously not the true deity, but the cold eyes revealed majestic anger.

The majesty of the emperor is as turbulent as the sea tide.

Sizzle.

The instrument faintly sounded the sound of electric current.

The lights were flickering, and the projections of the high-level executives were flickering frantically.

As if at any moment will be submerged in darkness.

Once the president gets angry, no one dares to jump out and seek death at this time.

"Divination fails?"

The president said coldly: "The world of order supports you, what do you do for food?"

No one dared to take the bait.

"Want to die?"

The president said coldly.

After a long time, Taixu's sweet and gentle voice sounded, bearing the anger on behalf of the higher-ups: "Because the dimensional fluctuations of the entrance to the underground palace of the Qilin Fairy Palace are relatively unstable, and the ancestor's appearance time is too short, we have not been able to find the most effective solution. medium of divination."

The president snorted coldly.

At this time, the high-level people were relieved.

"After all, the time is too short and too hasty."

"Chen Bojun's eagle eyes can't see clearly, what can be done?"

"Where's Thunder?"

The higher-ups all turned their eyes to the girl on the office chair.

Tang Ling lowered her head and fiddled with the phone, and said lazily, "Director Chen didn't see clearly, and of course I couldn't see clearly either."

The door of the conference room was opened.

Chen Bojun rushed in hurriedly, his face was pale and he was still coughing dryly.

But his eyes were extremely serious.

"teacher."

He looked directly at the one at the end of his line of sight, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "I have confirmed the identity of the thing in the Qilin Immortal Palace. That thing came from the Zhulong clan, the ancestor of the Kuilong! That person who was abnormal in the Shang and Zhou dynasties Active, Kui was once regarded as a patron saint!"

In the strange silence, the senior management looked at each other.

"How did you know?"

Clearly, the president was also skeptical.

Without further ado, Chen Bojun directly placed a painting under the projector.

When people saw this painting, they were shocked on the spot.

Chen Bojun can question it.

But the picture cannot be questioned.

the reason is simple.

Because someone really saw the legendary ancestor of Kuilong in some top-secret classics.

And this painting is exactly the same as those painted in the classic books.

Even more lifelike.

There are very few people in this world who have seen the ancestor's body. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, it would be impossible to outline all these details, so the possibility of making up random things was eliminated.

"Did you draw this painting?"

The president asked in surprise: "When did you have this ability?"

Chen Bojun shook his head: "I don't have this ability. This is Xiao Gu's profile drawing, which is even better than Professor Gu. Not long ago, he even drew the mythical posture of the ancestor of the ghost car."

He took out another yellowed painting from his pocket: "The kid doesn't even know how valuable these are."

Many high-level people stared at the two paintings.

"This ability..."

One can only think of one person.

The deceased Professor Gu.

More than anything.

Tang Ling raised her head in astonishment, staring at the two paintings.
