Chapter 22 Changes
When I was on the phone with Qi Tianchuan before, the young man didn't explain it very clearly. He just said that the case was settled. I asked if I needed my help. He just replied, and it would be nice to come and take a look.
I was still wondering if the case was more troublesome, but he was embarrassed to speak, so he answered vaguely.
But I never thought that when I rushed to the scene, I saw this situation and almost made me angry to death.
In the spacious villa, there were bursts of fragrance. Qi Tianchuan and Wang Zheng, the tampered goods, were surrounded by a huge copper pot, and their mouths were filled with oil.
"Damn, you two are really unreasonable. I'm busy running around every day, but you two are hiding here to eat hot pot. I... I can strangle you two to death."
I yelled angrily and rushed directly to the two of them.
Qi Tianchuan dodged lightly and avoided my claws. He was holding a bowl of soup in his hand, but he didn't even sprinkle a drop of soup. He looked so cool.
Well, it's not right, it's a group of introverts.
I glared at Qi Tianchuan hatefully. This guy gave me a blank look and was too lazy to speak.
However, Wang Zheng, who had just stuffed a bite of meat next to him, spoke, and laughed, "Brother, don't worry, aren't we just finished the case? We want to reward ourselves."
"Look, we haven't forgotten you, we have even prepared the dishes and chopsticks for you."
Wang Zheng pointed to the empty bowl next to the dining table.
I looked at the empty bowls and chopsticks, and naturally I wouldn't feel relieved. However, it's important to fill my stomach first and settle the score with them later on.
I immediately stopped talking, picked up the bowls and chopsticks, served a large bowl of soup, sat down and started to feast on it.
“Huh…”
As soon as I took a sip, I couldn't help but exclaimed.
He whispered, "This soup is good, it's delicious, what's the stew?"
As I said that, I took another sip.
Once the soup enters the abdomen, not only does it leave a fragrance on the mouth, but also a cloud of warm heat rises from the abdomen. The essence flows like a stream, rushing towards the limbs and bones.
"Hehe, this is a good thing. Drink it quickly and don't waste it."
Wang Zheng laughed when he heard this, picked up a piece of meat for himself, took out another round, white egg and handed it to me, and said, "Come on, try this bastard again."
"Tornado? Are you two hot pot turtle?"
I peeled the eggshell and ate it. Even the egg is fragrant and delicious, with a endless aftertaste.
Wang Zheng said proudly, "Xiao Jiezi, this is not an ordinary turtle. He is an old turtle who has been practicing for more than 800 years. Damn, in order to catch this thing, Xiaobai and I...well, it's a lot of effort."
"This thing is related to the case of hiding corpse at the bottom of the river?"
I suddenly remembered the case they came to deal with.
"Yes, raising corpses at the bottom of the river, our judgment is similar to yours. In fact, that matter is quite simple and can be handled. I just wanted to find out the person behind the scenes. I didn't expect that after searching, I found this thing in the end."
"This old turtle has practiced for more than 800 years and has already given birth to spiritual intelligence. Logically speaking, if it were the case before, it could have been able to seal the water god, or even go straight to the heavenly court, and become a small immortal official."
"It's a pity that in the Dharma-Ending Age, the road to heaven and earth has long been blocked. This old guy has no way out and has encountered a bottleneck in his practice. He calculated himself and may not be able to get through the thousand-year threshold. Knowing that the deadline is approaching, it is unwilling to accept it, so he came up with a solution and confusing several mortals. On the surface, he raised corpses at the bottom of the river and sold coffin mushrooms for money. In fact, he is sucking the essence of a new person and prolonging his life."
Wang Zheng explained.
Then I suddenly realized, "Now, is the case over?"
"It's considered a conclusion."
Qi Tianchuan drank all the soup in the bowl, put down the chopsticks, and said in a low voice, "Let you come here, one is to have some food. After all, such spiritual objects that have been successful in cultivation are not common, and will be helpful to your future practice. The other is that the King of Hell just informed me that we will go to the underworld."
"Go to the underworld? Why?"
I knew that the stewed in the pot was spiritual things, so I naturally would not be polite. I asked while quickly pulling it into my mouth.
"He didn't say much, and I don't know what the situation is. However, it may be related to the recent change of days."
Qi Tianchuan said in contemplation.
"The weather has changed? What's going to rain? Can this matter also be related to the underworld?"
I chewed the meat with big mouthfuls, vaguely.
Qi Tianchuan gave me helplessly, "I have been practicing for so long, why are you still so nervous? Even the beast can sense the situation, haven't you noticed?"
"What?"
I'm a little confused.
But Wang Zheng cursed, "Young man, don't pull everything on me. I'm a divine beast, you're a beast."
Qi Tianchuan ignored him and continued, "Real energy, have you not practiced recently? The Dharma-Ending Age has lasted for thousands of years, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth has been cut off for thousands of years. But recently, the spiritual energy seems to have begun to revive. Although it is only a very weak trace, through my observations over the past few days, I found that this intensity is slowly increasing. Do you know what this means?"
"this……"
I raised my head in surprise, "I haven't paid much attention to this situation in the past few days, but with the recovery of spiritual energy, is it said that the Dharma-Ending Age is about to end?"
"It is impossible to judge for the time being." Qi Tianchuan shook his head, "However, due to the revival of spiritual energy, the mountain spirit monsters that had been hiding for a long time, and some miscellaneous things, have begun to gradually emerge."
"No wonder, the number of cases in the agency has suddenly increased recently, and I am too busy."
I subconsciously said.
"This is nothing for us. Anyway, we just use money to do things and can also train our own strength. But you should pay attention in the future. Jiangchen has started to act now. Don't mess with him for the time being if you have nothing to do."
"Well, I didn't mess with him, but the one you hired has offended someone."
I told Su Hanyue about it.
Qi Tianchuan frowned when he heard this, but fortunately there were no serious consequences in the end. He thought for a while and said, "I will remind Su Hanyue that Jiangchen suddenly appeared at this point in time, and the spiritual energy began to revive. I'm afraid that his appearance is not as simple as the legend, and maybe he is planning something."
"Of course, there is no need to investigate these things for the time being. Let's take care of yourself first. After dinner, prepare and go to the underworld to see what's going on with the King of Hell."
"clear."
I nodded, quickly ate all the meat in the bowl, and then served a large bowl, stuffing it into my mouth like a match with Wang Zheng.
