The Fantastical Beasts at World's End

Recently, Ye Zhao found that all aspects of his body functions are more and more beyond ordinary people.In addition to the scary speed of wound healing, his physical energy is also getting better and better. Even if he feels tired, he recovers very quickly - Nie Renyan tossed the bathroom all night, and he can go to the hospital normally the next day. After running into heavy fog and driving all night, he slept at the base and woke up earlier than everyone else except Nie Renyan, and he didn't feel any discomfort at all.Every night since that day, he almost only needs to sleep for two or three hours to fully recharge his energy, which is absolutely not something normal people can do.

It was past three o'clock in the morning, Ye Zhao opened his eyes in the pitch black like a few days ago, and his dark golden eyes were clear. Dao: I woke up again... I am getting closer and closer to Nie Renyan, and I am developing in the direction of a beast with extraordinary energy.

There is still a faint medicinal scent lingering in the room. This is the herbal medicine that the master ignites before everyone goes to bed every day. It has the effect of calming the mind and helping sleep. Therefore, under normal circumstances, Luo Xiaochen and the others wake up until dawn, and then feel refreshed. Do things happily.But this thing is just a sleep aid, not a perspiration medicine, so Ye Zhao should wake up when he is full of sleep.

He originally planned, since he woke up, to simply get up and go for a walk.But before he moved, he heard a very light "flapping" sound, like the sound of something flapping its wings.Ye Zhao frowned slightly, maintained his previous posture, turned his gaze away calmly in the darkness, and looked towards the source of the sound——

I saw a paper crane made of talisman paper exuding a glimmer of light, flapping its wings and flying in through the balcony door, flying all the way in.

Ye Zhao didn't need to look to know that someone was looking for the master who was meditating.Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the master stretching out his hand to catch the faint light, but the expected sound transmission did not sound, the master just held the paper crane in silence for a while, and then twisted his fingertips, the whole paper crane turned into a flame and quickly burned out , no more sound.

The master jumped off the bed almost immediately, but there was no sound. The stone on the upper bed, which was also meditating, came down at the same time. While putting on his shoes, he asked his master in a low voice: "What, what's the matter, master?"

"Your uncle said that there is going to be an accident in S City, let's go." After speaking, he put his yellow cloth bag on his shoulders, took the cowhide bag and threw it into Shi Shi's arms, and went out. Shi Shi took out the cloth bag containing pomegranates Hastily followed out, and soon, Ye Zhao heard a faint bird song, and slid to a far away place.

City S?

Ye Zhao thought for a while, and immediately turned over and sat up.On the opposite side, Luo Xiaochen turned over, scratched his face, and fell asleep again.

"Isn't that guy's parents' house in S City?" Nie Renyan, who was on the upper bunk, rolled over and sat next to Ye Zhao's bed, picking his chin at Luo Xiaochen.

"Yeah." Ye Zhao sat in the dark, silent for a while, looked at Nie Renyan, even if he didn't say anything, the latter immediately understood what he meant - the base had an accident because of the previous patrols, and a few people were on the way. Moved to a neighboring village and vacated two houses.Although I haven't figured out what exactly is going to happen in City S, it must not be a trivial matter to be able to summon the master there in the middle of the night. I might as well take a trip and pick up Luo Xiaochen's parents. Don't worry, besides, Luo Xiaochen had this idea before, but the conditions were not convenient at that time.

Ye Zhao and Nie Renyan once went to S City to play together when they were in college, and stayed at Luo Xiaochen's house for two days. Luo's father and Luo mother had almost the same personality as Luo Xiaochen, and they treated them like their own sons.If something happened to the two old people, they would not feel much better.

Ye Zhao got up and took the two coats hanging on the side, threw one to Nie Renyan, and said: "Hurry up if you want to go, it will be difficult if you are late."

While everyone was still asleep in the middle of the night, I brought the two old people over.

[When Luo Xiaochen asks...? 】Nie Renyan took the clothes, his knuckles grasped Ye Zhao's wrist by the way, and asked attentively.

[Just say that the master helped to pick it up. 】Ye Zhao pushed the matter onto the head of the little old man who hurried out just now without blinking an eye.

Nie Renyan nodded, fastened the buttons of his coat, and then wrapped his arms around Ye Zhao's waist. Black smoke instantly rose from the soles of his feet, enveloping the two of them.Under the gloomy moonlight outside the window, the black smoke closed and spread out, leaving faint traces, and the two people who were originally wrapped in it disappeared completely.

Both of them are a bit of a hidden road idiot. Although the master had heard the approximate address when he helped Luo Xiaochen contact Luo's parents and Luo's mother before, they still made mistakes several times. Seeing that it was almost dawn, they were in the dormitory of the base. Luo's father and Luo's mother were found here.

The number of people in the base in City S is obviously much smaller than that in City H, and there are only two people living in one room.But it would be more convenient for Ye Zhao and the others to have no one else.

Ye Zhao: […] Although no one saw it, I still felt ashamed.

Nie Renyan comforted: [It's okay, daughter-in-law, at least we didn't miss it when we went back to our home. 】=_,=

Ye Zhao: 【…】Which pot is not opened and which pot is lifted, the house is gone, and I return it to my own home.

The moon is dark and the wind is high, the sky of murder and arson.Seeing that Luo's father and Luo's mother were still sleeping soundly, the two of them kept on doing nothing, a burst of black mist swept away the quilt, sheet and the clothes on the stool beside the bed.

In order to avoid people bumping into each other, the two put Luo's father and Luo's mother in the empty room.Because from the beginning to the end, Nie Renyan kept their posture unmoved, and they came and went quickly.Luo's father and mother, who had been moved across the city, did not feel any movement and were still asleep.

[We can't leave the two old people here, can we? 】Nie Renyan draped Ye Zhao's shoulders, with one hand in his trouser pocket, looking at the old people sleeping soundly on the two beds.

【Well, it will definitely be scary to wake up and find yourself sleeping in a strange place. 】Ye Zhaodao:【Wait until they wake up and explain before doing things. 】The two waited for a long time. The two old people were happy all day long and had no burden. They still slept well when they were old.I didn't wake up until the wake-up call sounded, and I was startled when I saw strange things around me in a daze.Fortunately, Ye Zhao and Nie Renyan explained it.

Luo's father twitched his lips and said, "Why does that brat keep doing such frightening things? He hasn't made any progress at all." First copy the guy and then talk wow!Father Luo, who was in a hurry, muttered to himself.

Nie Renyan smiled and said: "It was a bit sudden, but because I received the news in the middle of the night, Xiaochen was worried that your two elders were staying in City S, so please ask that Taoist master to pick you up overnight. They are in charge of patrol today and left early. , let us wait here."

"What could happen in this city S?" Luo's mother asked worriedly. Although they didn't have any relatives anymore, they were still a little terrified when they thought that something big would happen to their hometown where they had lived for so many years.

"That's not clear to us."

"Oh—" Luo's father opened his mouth and nodded, he was still a little dazed, and he said after a while: "When will the boy finish patrolling?"

"They don't rest halfway, they come back at night." Ye Zhao looked at the time, and there should be no one in the dormitory at this moment, so he said, "The second old man should change clothes and go to our dormitory to wait."

After bringing the two elderly people back to the dormitory and settling down, Ye Zhao left them a few meal coupons that they got two days ago, and left the dormitory with Nie Renyan. They rushed to the assembly point before they had time to eat breakfast.

Just when their car arrived in the urban area and everyone got out of the car, the ground suddenly vibrated faintly, as if thousands of horses galloped past from the depths of the ground.

"What's going on?" Someone froze there while maintaining the movement of getting out of the car, "Earthquake?" Although it was not obvious to them, it was still frightening. An earthquake is tantamount to worsening the situation. How many people will survive by then?

"It's not like an earthquake." A man squatted down, pressed his hands on the ground, felt it for a while, and pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose.

Ye Zhao and Nie Renyan almost immediately thought of City S, which is not too far from City H, although they are in other provinces. Could this be related to the news the master received in the middle of the night last night?

This kind of vibration is not big, but it is like the aftertaste left in the ear after the tuning fork is struck, and it is endless.After most of the day, all the people in the urban area almost felt that their bodies and minds were humming and trembling with the earth, and they couldn't even tell whether the tremors had really never disappeared, or their psychological effects.

When it was dark, they followed the car to the base.When I went back, it was already dark, but it was probably because the base was farther away from City S than the urban area, and most people had been busy in the mountains and fields because of work, so not many people noticed that There was a faint shock, except for Luo's father and Luo's mother who had been staying on the fifth floor.

"Did there be an earthquake today?" Luo's father and Luo mother asked as soon as they saw them come back.

"We also felt it in the urban area, but some people said it didn't look like an earthquake." Ye Zhao thought for a while and added, "Maybe it's related to S city."

"Ah?" Dad Luo was about to ask, when he heard the sound of a key being inserted into the lock.

He and Luo Ma turned around and saw Luo Xiaochen standing at the door with his mouth open.

"You, why are you here?!" Luo Xiaochen was almost incoherent, "It must be the wrong way for me to open the door!"

Father Luo went over in two or three steps, and patted him on the back of the head: "Stinky boy! What are you talking about! Didn't you do it?!"

"Ah?" Luo Xiaochen was dumbfounded, then turned to look at Xia Zhiming and said, "I, did I sleepwalk?!"

"Where can I find out!" Xia Zhiming rolled his eyes and pushed him in, "Don't stick around, let's go in and talk."

After Luo Xiaochen went in, he finally noticed Nie Renyan with twitching eyes and Ye Zhao with an expressionless face. He belatedly connected what he heard Ye Zhao said in the middle of the night in the middle of the night to the current situation in his mind, and was stunned for a while. , and finally returned Nie Renyan, who was about to go crazy, with the same twitching eyes, and said to his parents: "Ah! I remembered, I said it in the middle of the night last night, because I was too confused, I forgot today!" He laughed and coaxed My parents were still wondering: What's going on with Grandma Te?

As soon as the words fell, the door that had just been closed clicked open, and the master cowhide stepped into the door coaxingly, wanting to appear domineering, but it was a pity that the messy hairstyle and the Taoist robe that was torn into several holes were half wet betrayed him.The little apprentice who followed was drenched like a soaked chicken.

Everyone was so shocked by their cool looks that they forgot what they had discussed before. Just as Nie Renyan finished twitching the corners of his eyes, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but start to twitch again: "Damn it, you two don't want to throw yourself into the river?"
