The old ghost stood at the fork in the road, and his eyes fell on Zhou Yang.

Aix took a step forward, blocking Zhou Yang behind him, and the rattling of bracelets and anklets echoed in the silent stairs.

The ghost old man guards the black tower database all the year round, and never gets involved in blood clan affairs.The third elder thought that the other party might not know the Holy Son, so he said confidently: "Old man, they are prisoners, hehe, I thought..."

"This road is blocked." The old ghost blocked the third elder as soon as he opened his mouth, "Everyone, please go back."

The third elder choked: "Go back, where?"

Ghost old man: "Where did you come from, and where do you go back?"

The third elder pretended to be stupid: "Where else can I go back?"

The ghost old man chuckled: "There is a secret passage leading to the waterway in the underground prison, do you think I don't know?"

After all the calculations, I didn't expect to be planted here by the old ghost.Seeing that they could go out a few hundred meters away, the third elder said in a low voice: "Old man, please do me a favor, I have something urgent to take them up."

"To see Lilith?"

"yes……"

"No way." The old ghost did not give in at all, and stared coldly at Xue Xiao's unsheathed feather sword.

The third elder didn't want to make things worse, so he kept winking at Xue Xiao.When the two sides were at a stalemate, the small machine rang again, and the third elder was startled. Looking down, it turned out that it was an emergency contact signal from the first elder.

"Third, are you still at home?"

"Hey..." The third elder glanced at the old ghost with a guilty conscience.

"Hurry up to the tower, the meeting is about to start! It's very urgent, you have to climb over here even if you climb!" After a pause, the elder said, "Do you want to send someone to pick you up?"

"Hey, no, no, I'll come by myself later!" The third elder scratched his ears and cheeks on the communicator, "...what happened?"

"A major event has happened! The imperial forces are gathering in Shacheng, and it is estimated that they will send troops to the city that never sleeps!"

"Sent, sent troops?!'" The three elders were sweating on their foreheads. The blood clan has only a population of more than [-], including those who are scattered in seclusion, the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled... In fact, there are not many troops who can go to war. Many, mainly rely on the assistance of the demons.

But the demons often open their mouths, and before the war, they must first contact the demons to bargain.

"You go up." The ghost old man made way sideways, "but others are not allowed to go up."

Even if it is accurate, there is no way to make it!

The third elder didn't expect that things would change, he gestured towards Xue Xiao, Xue Xiao nodded, and walked back with Aix and Zhou Yang.The old ghost suddenly said: "Xue Xiao, how much do you know about the original species in the other world?"

The third elder stopped, and Xue Xiao also stood still—he agreed to help the third elder because the third elder said that the matter involved the original species from another world.In the Demon Race, the seven original species represent different powers, and to put it bluntly, they are the source of power.The Great Demon King of the Demon Race is known as the "Original Seed of Creation". As a blood owl of the Demon Race, he knows the ability of the Great Demon King very well. Even if he is cut and sealed, the Great Demon King still produces infinite power and can split into different lives. bodies (such as Virus King Suter and Kakadodo sisters).

Xue Xiao has been looking for the original species for a long time, and his years of adventure have allowed him to inquire a lot of information: "It is said that there are seven alien life forms, two are missing, and five are alive."

The third elder frowned, why is it different from what the literature said?According to the records he saw, it was clear that four were missing, and three remained!

The old ghost asked: "Which ones are missing? Which ones are left?"

Xue Xiao said: "What is missing is the original species of destruction, the original species of elements. What remains is the original species of creation (big devil), the original species of shadow, the original species of parasites, the original species of wisdom, and the original species of immortality."

Third Elder: "Isn't it? Your information is wrong!"

Blood owl: "Hmph! I was wrong in seeing your information!"

Old Ghost: "Actually, your information is all wrong."

Blood owl: "What's wrong?"

"The reason for the difference in cognition... is because the seven original species are all there! It's just that you can't find them, or you can't recognize them when you meet them!" The old ghost said, "The seven original species come from seven different worlds. , Well-intentioned, they will hide themselves, although sometimes people will notice their whereabouts... Blood owl, what do the folks say about the original species?"

The blood lord pondered for a moment, but still told the truth: "The great demon king of the original species of creation, the original species of shadow is in the north, the original species of parasite is good at disguising, the original species of wisdom knows the world, and the original species of immortality is alone...the remaining two are not recorded, I don't know whereabouts."

"Oh! That's right, I know quite a lot!" The ghost old man nodded, walked a few steps with his head buried in his head, and when he raised his head again, he said solemnly, "People have always been interested in the ancient original species, but the original species also has extreme malice. ... Let me give you a piece of advice, don't provoke them, let alone take the initiative to contact them, they are not the source of power you imagined!"

Xue Xiao always felt that there was something in the old ghost's words, as if he was implying something.But before he had time to speak, he heard the noisy voices of the guards above the corridor—the guards from the city that never sleeps also entered the tower for a meeting.There was a lot of footsteps, and the patrolling soldiers began to line up to stand guard. The third elder turned back and ran towards the black tower. After running a few steps, he turned back and called Xue Xiao: "Don't go back to the manor, take them to the waterway, to the tavern!"

"Tavern?" Xue Xiao was surprised, "Go to your little lover's tavern?!"

"It's okay, it's safe there! You'll know when you get on the waterway!" After the third elder gave instructions, he rushed up the stairs, just in time to meet the assigned patrol soldiers.

Taking advantage of the third elder to stop the patrolling soldiers, Xue Xiao led Aix and Zhou Yang to evacuate quickly. When turning the corner, Xue Xiao looked back.The old ghost still stood where he was, in the shadows where the candlelight could not reach.He is like a ghost wandering alone, silently blending with the darkness.

The intricate underground waterways lead in all directions, and Zhou Yang quickly became dizzy. He always felt like he was wandering around in the same place.He thought about running away with Aix, but after thinking about it, it was not easy to escape in an unfamiliar underground waterway.Xue Xiao has done a comprehensive investigation of the city that never sleeps, and is very familiar with the underground waterway.But the two of them were completely in the fog, and they could get dizzy after following the blood owl.After walking for an unknown amount of time, Xue Xiao finally walked into a staircase.This staircase didn't branch off, one way to the end, pushed open the secret door, and came to the narrow gap between the two buildings.

There is no way around, and there is no place to go out of the sealed slit. There is only a rope connected to the uppermost window. In order to facilitate climbing, there are simple pedals on the rope.

Xue Xiao understood, usually the third elder came to have a quiet meeting with the little lover, but he came out from the underground waterway and climbed the window!

The room on the rope is the so-called "love' nest", right? !

This time the third elder did not hesitate to use his "love nest" in order to hide the holy son. Xue Xiao really admired this old friend.

Climbing all the way along the rope, Xue Xiao jumped over the window and fell into the room.The rooms are small and plainly furnished - just a big bed for serious business.

The big bed was neatly tidied up, and the bedding gave off a faint fragrance.

Zhou Yang took Aix's hand and climbed into the window sill with his strength, looked around, and was convinced: "This guy is really cautious, he even found another way to find a woman!"

"This window is opened by coincidence, and you can see the door of the tavern from the slant, and you can run away at any time if the situation is wrong." Xue Xiao stood by the window for a while, and looked back, Aix and Zhou Yang were sitting side by side on the edge of the bed, with the same expression looking at him.Xue Xiao suddenly had the illusion that the other party was running into something and he was bumped into by him... Ha, it's ridiculous!Xue Xiao was amused by his own thoughts.

Zhou Yang snorted: "Are you thinking...like being caught in bed?"

Xue Xiao praised: "This word is really clever!"

Aix didn't understand: "What do you mean?"

Zhou Yang explained: "It means I'm having sex with you on the bed... well, it means doing something and then being bumped into by this brother."

It was originally a joke, but Zhou Yang and Xue Xiao didn't care, and they didn't take it seriously.Ax sat solemnly, his ears turned red again uncontrollably.The atmosphere suddenly became weird. Zhou Yang, who was sitting next to him, was infected by him, his mouth became dry, and his face began to feel hot, all the way to his ears.

Now it was Xue Xiao's turn to be confused: "Your faces are so red..."

Zhou Yang rubbed his face: "Hot."

Ax didn't say a word, and blushed silently with his eyes downcast.Aix, who is sober, can't stand ridicule, looks cold and heartless, but in fact has a very thin skin.But the drunk Axe is different. He plays tricks, does whatever he likes, and has a very bad temper!

Zhou Yang couldn't help thinking, if Aix was drunk... what would he do at this time?

"We're just waiting here?" Ax changed the topic calmly, "Don't you need to find the elder's little lover?"

"Wait here." Xue Xiao said, "The door is locked from the inside. It is estimated that when he came in, he stayed at home and waited in the room."

There are no secret passages or organs in the room, one window and one door, elders use windows, and young lovers use doors.

The three men sat in silence for a while, and the voice of the proprietress Ah Huan sounded outside the door: "Elder?"

Ah Huan put on light makeup, lowered her eyebrows, and exuded a faint fragrance from her body.Her hair was tied into a bun, and she was wearing a bright robe. Her figure was plump and charming.

However, it was not her wishful man who opened the door.

With an "elder" swallowed back, Ah Huan took a step back with surprise on his face: "...is that you?!"

The young butler in human form nodded: "It's me."

"Why do you..." Ah Huan turned around to see that there were two strange men in handcuffs and anklets sitting on the big bed!

Xue Xiao explained solemnly: "The master wants me to bring the two prisoners here to escape."

There is only one way to the tavern in the underground waterway, which is not only a secret way for the elders to have fun, but also a way for the elders to escape for Ah Huan.

A secret that only the two of them know.

Ah Huan asked, "Where's the elder?"

Xue Xiao said: "We have entered the tower for a meeting."

Ah Huan had just seen the soldiers who ordered the other elders to rush to the black tower, she believed it, and said nervously: "I, can I do something for you?"

"You don't have to do anything, just act like we don't exist."

"……it is good."

"Right, one more thing."

"what's up?"

"The thing I said last time... the master hopes that you will leave the city that never sleeps as soon as possible." Xue Xiao knew in his heart that there are many places to hide, such as underground waterways. They can find a remote corner to hide in at any time. Of course, hiding underground Otherwise, a lot of important information will be lost.

The third elder asked them to come here, not only to hide the Son, but more importantly, to see if Ah Huan had left.

If Ah Huan left, no one would bother them.

If Ah Huan hadn't left, he would definitely come to this room.

The third elder seems to be unreliable, but in fact he has a careful mind and has planned everything thoroughly.

"Please leave as soon as possible." Xue Xiao dutifully urged, "Don't stay for a moment."

"I, I understand..." Ah Huan pinched the hem of his clothes uncomfortably, "I'll be leaving soon..."

"Let's go by the water, the master should have told you which route to take?"

Xue Xiao's words seemed to touch a certain heartstring, Ah Huan couldn't hold it back, his nose sore, and big tears rolled down his eyes.

"Yes...he also prepared a small boat..." Ah Huan choked up, "but...I don't want to leave! I want to stay and help him...I, I can definitely help..."

"Hey, miss, you'd better change your clothes and leave!" Zhou Yang said, "You are safe and sound is the greatest help! Only when you are sure that you are safe, the elder will be at ease!"

Ah Huan was taken aback for a moment, and shed more tears after recovering.She covered her face and wept silently, Xue Xiao didn't know how to comfort the girl, hesitated for a while, and said in a businesslike way: "Hurry up and change your clothes!"

"Yeah!" Ah Huan wiped his eyes, turned around and walked downstairs.

Yes, be safe and sound, she doesn't want to be a burden and make the elders worry about her!

A seemingly invisible silk thread floated by, and when Xue Xiao looked over, the thread was gone.A Huan walked downstairs step by step under Xue Xiao's gaze, without looking back, Xue Xiao couldn't see the expression on her face, and A Huan didn't know the expression on his own.

She is laughing.

Tears flowed from her eyes, which flowed from the real pain in her heart.

But the corners of his mouth are upturned—a happy grin, like a puppet in Zhou Yang's pocket.

Outside the city that never sleeps——

"Wait!" Ode in werewolf form swung his colleague A back with a flick of his tail, "Are you in a hurry?!"

Colleague A was dissatisfied: "Didn't you say you smelled them?!"

"That's right, it smells like them, they must have entered the city!" Odd was very confident in his nose.

"Then why don't you hurry up and look for it?"

"No..." Ode looked at the gate of the city that never sleeps, "There seems to be something wrong."

Colleague A is unclear, so: "Too many people?"

"The empire is summoning an army, and it is estimated that an attack will be launched in the next few days." The gun king shook the baby in his arms, "Oh, Yaya, be good, go to sleep!"

"Yeah~" Yaya sucked her finger and looked at the gun king with bright eyes.In exchange for being hugged by Alpha, Yaya still opened her eyes brightly.The two dads were in a state of desperation, coaxing and coaxing, and almost lay down on the ground to sleep with the baby.

"Hey! Hey!" The little holy baby who took off was caught by Ode and gently placed on the head of colleague A.

Plato was very calm. He took an ice-condensed lens (simple telescope) and lay on the rock to look at the city gate.The city that never sleeps also has guards guarding the city, but after Plato observed for so long, the guards have been patrolling for so long—they came and went along the same road, their eyes were blank, and they repeated their patrol routes in a daze. It looks like a puppet without a soul...
