Yancheng Special Office

Entering June, most parts of the country are about to enter early summer. The Karakoram Mountains thousands of kilometers away are still covered with snow. The majestic Yuxu Peak stands at the Kunlun Mountain Pass 160 kilometers away from Golmud, Qinghai. The seat stands on the cloud table.

Standing alone in the heavy snow, he held a long staff, wrapped his collar tightly, and walked against the wind and snow all over the sky.

The lonely footprints meandered into an invisible track behind him, and the howling wind tried to stop his footsteps for countless times, but his figure forcibly broke through a hole.

Nothing could stop him, and he walked to the top of the mountain, and then dug his staff deep into the snow beneath his feet.

The man's voice was a little tired from walking in a low-oxygen environment for a long time. His voice sounded hoarse and deep, but every word penetrated into every inch of the surrounding land like an unquestionable order.

Mountain soul, water soul, listen to my orders, wake up quickly—"

As if being summoned by some kind, the snow mountain shook like a heartbeat.

The ancient glacier began to make a dull sound from a certain point, and the sound gradually faded away, and finally the whole mountain was making continuous whispers.

From the bottom of his feet, the snow-capped mountain opened a wider and wider opening towards both sides, turning into a glacier canyon with no bottom to see.

A soul body as pure as Bai Xue slowly rose from the broken canyon, stopped two meters in front of him, and bowed to him respectfully: "Master Mountain God, what do you want—"

Su Jian nodded slightly at him: "Please trouble the envoy, take me to the Kunlun Ruins."

The envoy paused for a moment, although there was no change on his face, which could not be seen clearly, but Su Jian could clearly feel a trace of panic on the other side.

Su Jian's eyes turned cold: "It seems that my guess is indeed correct. What happened to Kunlun Ruins?"

The rainy season in Yancheng came ahead of the summer, even though the sun was still shining in the evening, it began to rain lightly at night.

Luo Wenxiu walked around the MUSE bar in the east of the city, and repeatedly confirmed that Su Jian was really not here.

He was drenched by the rain from top to bottom, his clothes stuck to his body, and he smelled of rain and sweat.The weather was sultry and the air pressure was very low. The humid and windless environment and the sticky touch made people feel very uncomfortable.

Luo Wenxiu came out of the bar, and the weather station on the TV in the grocery store facing the street was broadcasting a heavy rain warning for tonight, and the sky began to flash occasionally, and it seemed that a violent storm was inevitable tonight.

Su Jian definitely didn't get drunk at the bar, and his sudden disappearance started three days ago.

After returning from Qinling Mountains, Su Jianwo slept in his apartment for two days and one night. After waking up completely, she felt dizzy and weak in limbs, and couldn't even sit still.

He touched his forehead, his body temperature was fine, and sickness was ruled out, the biggest problem might be that he was too hungry.

The stomach seemed to be summoned and began to growl loudly.In the middle of the night, the convenience store downstairs had already closed. Su Jian ordered a takeaway as quickly as possible, and then saw a voice message from Bai Yan more than ten hours ago lying on the phone: "Why are you connected to so many people?" Didn't check attendance, are you still alive?"

Su Jian lowered her eyelids and replied, "Thanks to you, I live well."

Bai Yan replied in seconds: "I heard that the team members temporarily transferred from the criminal investigation department made a good impression on you? Why, the rabbits are also eating the grass beside the nest?"

Su Jian rolled her eyes and said, "It's really strange, how big a fart do you want the deputy minister to release in person? Don't mention this to me, I went on a mission with a lot of situations, not to mention my whole body was injured, and I was just fired Good guy card. Let me tell you that I am taking leave for a few days to retreat, so don't bother me."

Bai Yan sent a series of mocking emojis, but Su Jian immediately pushed back, "You asked if you found the answer to the matter I asked you to investigate, how many days have passed, and I still need to remind you personally."

Bai Yan: "I just wanted to tell you about this - it's strange to say that no one from the Kunlun headquarters has responded to me for several days, and the news sent out seems to have disappeared, which has never happened before."

Su Jian's eyelids twitched inadvertently. He didn't know if it was because of the air leakage caused by the open windows or because he suddenly recalled the fear of being forcibly controlled by the soul in the rest area. In short, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine.

He lit a cigarette to wake himself up, then turned over and got out of bed, took out a piece of talisman paper with the word "Please God" written in cinnabar from under the work table by the window, lit it with a cigarette butt, and muttered words in his mouth.

A wisp of turquoise flame shot out from the invitation talisman in an instant, then turned into light smoke and disappeared, not even a trace of ash fell.

After waiting for about 10 minutes, there was no response.

Su Jian immediately called Bai Yan, "When was the last time you contacted the headquarters, and what was it for?"

Bai Yan: "Let's report the annual work at the end of last year. The time is the middle of December in the lunar calendar. At that time, I didn't hear anything unusual in the headquarters. Later, the Kunlun Ruins sent a special New Year's message to the Resident Office in Yan—" —Did you notice something?"

Su Jian sighed, and pinched out the cigarette butt by the way: "To be honest, I have been uneasy these days. There are too many unusual things in the cases in the past few months, and most of them involve people who have practiced for at least 500 years. Big monster. You also know that the seal has been sealed for more than 2000 years, how can there be so many big monsters in this world, and they appear one after another at the same time?"

Bai Yan: "You mean what's wrong with the headquarters?"

"I'm not sure." Su Jian answered crisply, "I'm afraid that what the big monster I met in the highway rest area is telling the truth. It’s not something that my office can solve.”

Bai Yan was silent for a moment, then asked, "Do you have any plans?"

Su Jian said: "I have a bad feeling, and I want to go to the headquarters to see for myself. In the past few days, you can manage the office for me, and I won't tell the team members, lest there is nothing to worry about them."

Bai Yan: "Okay, how about I let Qi Jun go with you."

Don't, don't, I get a headache seeing him. Su Jian rubbed her temples subconsciously, "I'll just take a look and go back quickly."But I just tried to contact the headquarters with the please charm, but no one responded, so I can't open the door of Kunlun Ruins unilaterally——Old Bai, you can get me a plane ticket to Golmud, Qinghai as soon as possible, and I will personally take a trip. "

Well, then you be careful. "

Bai Yan hung up the phone, and not long after, a text message was sent to Su Jian's cell phone that the flight ticket was booked successfully.

Eight hours later, Su Jian had successfully arrived in Golmud, Qinghai.

From Golmud to the base camp of Yuxu Peak in Kunlun Mountains, it takes a six-hour pickup truck.Then we hiked from the base camp to the top of the uninhabited snow-capped mountains. It has been a full 36 hours since we set off.

Kunlun Ruins does not belong to the human world, but a sacred place full of spiritual power in the god world.The gate to enter the Kunlun Ruins was hidden under the crevasse of the glacier, but the mountain emissary stopped Su Jian and did not answer his request to enter the Kunlun Ruins.

I tried to contact you with the please talisman before, but no one paid any attention to me. You deliberately cut off the external contact, right? "Su Jian's facial features twisted up, her tone was obviously not very good, "Get out of the way, I want to see by myself. "

He blocked it with the trembling stick, and pushed the translucent emissary a step away from the front. The emissary couldn't resist the force of the trembling stick, and was pushed two meters away. Looking back, he saw that Su Jian had already jumped forward. In the canyon of the abyss.The canyon was an invisible barrier, and as soon as Su Jian stepped into it, she disappeared into the crack along with her whole body.

It was a completely blank world, without the sound of the wind, nor the singing of birds, nor the alternation of the sun and the moon and the shifting of the stars.Time runs at a slow speed that almost stops here.

It was so quiet that it was deathly quiet, so that Su Jian always had the hallucination of tinnitus every time she first stepped here.

There are no plants here, the mountains and the ground are white covered with snow, and the boundary between the sky and the ground cannot be distinguished at the end of the line of sight, except that there is a meandering river within the scope of the ground, extending from the due west of the Kunlun Ruins to the underfoot.But the river was not flowing, and there was no ripple on the water surface, just like a mirror.

Kunlun Ruins used to be an evergreen divine domain, but now there is only a small square of water and soil connected to Kunlun Mountain in Qinghai.Eight extremely thick, towering sky pillars respectively support the four sides of the entire Kunlun Ruins, forcibly propping up the chaotic world just like Pangu opened the world.

However, Su Jian was shocked to find that some of the pillars were tilted, and even across the mountains, they could clearly see the signs of fractures on the pillars.

Su Jian rubbed her eyes in disbelief, and couldn't help cursing "Fuck" in the next second—it wasn't the first time he saw such a scene, he also experienced the catastrophe related to the Three Realms thousands of years ago After the eight pillars collapsed and the monsters ran rampant.

The eight pillars of Kunlun support the eight directions, and the sky and the earth stand upright. The ten directions are stable, and the mountains and rivers are there.Once the eight pillars representing the stability of the ten directions collapse completely, the track of reincarnation in the three realms is cut off, and the world will once again be reduced to a chaotic place without reincarnation.

"Where are the Twelve Golden Immortals? I have something to ask you." Su Jian yelled, his voice echoed throughout the Kunlun Ruins, and gradually disappeared into the sky. "Why, none of the Twelve Golden Immortals are here?!"

The mountain envoy who followed followed tremblingly and floated to Su Jian's side, and said in a low voice, "Lord Mountain God, calm down, the Twelve Golden Immortals are indeed not here..."

Su Jian stared at the emissary, resisting the urge to throw fire on him, "Please explain to me clearly, what is the reason for the cracking of the pillar of heaven? Is it because of this that the big monsters in the world frequently come and go? Twelve golden immortals are dispatched collectively, what is there to hide from me?!"

"The Kunlun Ruins suffered a major earthquake, and the eight pillars were damaged to varying degrees in the earthquake..." The emissary hesitated and said, "The road to reincarnation was blocked, and the demon world took advantage of the opportunity to cause chaos. The big monster in Kunlun Ruins sneaked out."

Su Jian had thought of this ending a long time ago, but the moment she heard it with her own ears was still very difficult to accept.He asked calmly: "Why didn't you tell me about such a big incident at the headquarters?"

"The exact cause of the earthquake is unknown. The Twelve Golden Immortals suspect that there is a deeper relationship and are looking for the truth. In addition, the big demon who fled to the human world has sent four gods and beasts to suppress it."

Su Jian: "I didn't ask you this, what I asked was why the Twelve Golden Immortals kept it from me about such a big matter."

"..." The envoy was silent for a while, and finally lost under Su Jian's eyes, "They... think that the Lord can't solve this matter for the time being."

"Is it because it can't be solved, or is it that I don't intend to let me solve it?" Su Jian said, "Or in their eyes, I am still a monster. You didn't even acknowledge me, the former mountain god, right?"

The mountain envoy still had no expression on his unchanging face, but Su Jian didn't care what he thought at all.

"Master Shanshen is too worried. We have all seen the achievements of the Yan Office over the years. The Twelve Golden Immortals decided not to tell you for the time being because they think the problem lies around you."

"Around me? What do you mean?" Su Jian spread her hands and said, "Could it be that I did the collapse of the Eight Pillars? Well, I admit that it was indeed me who did it 2000 years ago, but I You have confessed your crime, and you have been punished, so you won’t hold grudges until now, right?”

The mountain envoy endured being speechless again, and continued to explain at his unhurried pace: "After the Kunlun Ruins was hit by an earthquake, the seal fluctuated, and the fleeing monsters all fled towards the direction of Yancheng at the same time. It's like making an appointment in advance to find something. It stands to reason that there is a mountain god stationed in Yancheng, and they shouldn't run there... So the Twelve Golden Immortals think that there is something in Yancheng that is worth the risk, and they don't tell the lord. It’s also to avoid scaring the snake in advance.”
