When I was supposed to be slaying the dragon, I accidentally started cultivating immortality

At three-thirty in the morning, the bright moonlight filtered through the gauze and light clouds, slightly illuminating the deserted streets.

This city is just a small southern town that is not prosperous. After one o'clock in the morning, only the office buildings and commercial streets in the city center have sparse lights and pedestrians. The other areas of the city are sleeping quietly.

The road itself is remote enough, and it is close to the river. The guardrail is also missing several sections due to disrepair. There are few pedestrians even during the day, let alone at night, which is not considered safe.

Even a strong adult man is not willing to walk this road in the dark. Even if he is not afraid of meeting some bad people, if he misses the mark and falls down, and rolls all the way into the river, where can he explain it?

But under the moonlight, a tall and concave figure was reflected on the roadside.

In fact, describing this figure as concave and convex is not accurate enough, or the "degree" is far from deep enough.

The ups and downs of this figure are perfect. The concept of "golden ratio" is reflected in almost every aspect of this figure's exquisite figure. Even the top model in the world is probably only on par with this figure.

With a wonderful figure and proud long legs, this is undoubtedly a female figure. Under the bright moonlight, the woman's fair skin exposed outside her clothes glows like ivory.

She doesn't look old, but she looks like she's in her early twenties. She has very fashionable makeup, bright eyes and red lips, a hint of crimson at the corners of her eyes, and her hair is tied up in a high bun with bright red ropes hanging down in front of her ears. Two long hairs as black as ink.

She was wearing a black round spot T-shirt from VERO MODA, most of her long white legs were exposed under Bottega's leather shorts, and she was wearing a pair of dark brown sneakers made of Bottega's gabardine fabric.

In such a dark and remote place, it is already very dangerous for a woman to walk alone at night, let alone a girl with such a good figure that would put most models to shame.

With such a beauty walking alone on a dark path in cool clothes, any man might be tempted to reach out to her in the dark.

However, Mai Shutoku was not afraid at all, and she did not even consider this danger at all - no matter which hands dared to reach out to her without permission, she would pull out the small sword from her waist like lightning, and move like a cloud. Cut off the wrists of those hands.

The darkness does not stop her sword, but instead assists her.

As a ninja who has gone through rigorous training, although Mai Shutoku cannot form seals and spit fireballs, she can at least turn darkness into her loyal friend. Hiding in the shadows, she will become a life-threatening female death goddess with a smooth and concave shape. The combination of body shape and fashionable clothing often becomes the last beauty in the eyes of the target.

As a ninja, Mai Shutoku has endurance and execution ability that ordinary people cannot match. In the past, she would complete any task perfectly, and this time was no exception.

But compared to the previous missions, this was the mission that Shutoku Mai had performed that puzzled her the most - her previous missions had also made her feel confused, but it had never been as puzzling to her as it was today. of the mind.

He stretched out his slender green fingers and pressed the headset gently. After two busy tones, a woman's voice with a lazy tone came to mind in the headset.

"Hello? Longlegs, are you at the designated place?"

The woman's voice was soft and lazy, vaguely mixed with the crisp sound of chewing.

"I've arrived at the potato chips," Mai Shutoku moved her long legs and crouched into the dense green belt on the roadside. The green leaves of midsummer rubbed against her clothes and skin, but only made a slight rustling sound, "I I took my 'props' and hid in the grass on the roadside."

The green belt here, like the railings, has been neglected for a long time.

But there is a huge difference between living plants and dead things composed of inorganic matter. After a long period of neglect, the railings decayed and aged, but the plants in the green belt thrived and developed vigorously.

Although their ultimate fate must be to turn into decaying dust and mud under the influence of time, at least at this moment, the contrast between the lush green belt and the old and mottled railings is as sharp as the red and green in an oil painting. .

Mai Shutoku took two steps in the green belt that was so lush that she called it "grass." She stretched out her left hand slightly, and her fingertips touched the cold and hard iron: "The thing is next to me, and it is also in the grass. .”

The "thing" she was talking about was an iron cage about one meter tall and over one meter wide.

In the iron cage, a figure that looks like a gorilla but is much slimmer is crouching with difficulty. Its limbs and joints are bound by chains in a very professional way. It has a special mask on its face, as well as its eyes and mouth. Covered.

The subtle moonlight shines on it through the gaps in the leaves of the green belt, and its hair is so black and soft that it can reflect light.

"Now that you've hid, let's use your word spirit. The target has just left the Internet cafe." Chips chewed potato chips, "A green belt can't hide that big guy. You have to rely on your word spirit to avoid it." be found."

Although the woman whom Mai Shutoku called potato chips was not present at the scene, what she said was absolutely correct - the wildly growing green belt was lush enough, but a small section of the top of the cage was still slightly exposed.

"Now? According to the mission information, it takes twelve to fifteen minutes for the target to walk here from the Internet cafe. Didn't he just leave the Internet cafe? Why are you in such a hurry?"

Mai Shutoku said doubtfully.

"Just to be on the safe side!" Potato Chips said plausibly, "Everything should be done on the safe side. What if he suddenly wants to run for a walk today? There are too few cameras in this city. If he takes two more steps, he will be out of my surveillance range. At that time, I won’t be able to control his whereabouts in real time, so of course I have to try to be safe..."

"Bah!" Mai Shutoku spat lightly, her tone became angry, "Strive for insurance? You say it nicely, but you are not the one who speaks loudly. You remotely command and use your words to strive for insurance, but in the end, am I the one who contributes? You? Do you know that the sequence of my 'Mingzhao' on the periodic table of words and spirits is 69, which consumes a lot of money!"

"Don't come here!" There was a sound of a puffed food bag being squeezed from the potato chip side. "How many times have I remotely assisted you in carrying out missions? I don't know how much your Mingzhao consumption is! Hurry up and speak spiritually, no delay. It’s a big thing that happened to the boss, so be careful I put all the responsibility on you!”

"...Very good, girl, if you have the guts, wait until you get back and watch me pinch your ass until it swells up!"

Mai Shutoku gritted her teeth and threatened, and a low chant flowed from her throat. The language coming out of her mouth was definitely not any language that had ever appeared in human civilization. It was majestic, awkward, complex, and had changing tones. Extremely rich, this should be a language that is efficient in communication but extremely difficult to learn.

During the brief chant, Mai Shutoku, the cage next to her, and the creatures in the cage quickly transformed into darkness. After just a few seconds, their figures were as dark as ink, and then the ink suddenly dispersed, as if dripping into A little ink stain in the water tank usually fades into nothingness.

Along with the darkness, the figures of Mai Shutoku and the cage and the creatures inside faded away.

Yanling·Mingzhao can form a spherical area around itself, distorting the light in the area, causing an optical invisibility effect.

After releasing Meishu, Mai Shutoku stopped speaking, and even her breathing gradually became softer due to the special ninja skills.

Mingzhao is optical invisibility and does not involve sound concealment. Even if Mingzhao is released, the sound she makes will be transmitted intact.

Fortunately, she is a ninja. Ninjas have always been very skilled in hiding, especially in lowering the sound they make.

As for the "big guy" next to her, the chains, mask and cage on it are all specially made, and it will not make any sound unless the restraints are released.

Mai Shutoku adjusted her breathing and stared at the end of the road attentively.

About twelve or thirteen minutes later, a vague figure appeared from the end of the road, walking towards Mai Shutoku.

After another three or four minutes, the figure gradually came closer and became clearer. With her excellent eyesight, Mai Shutoku could barely see the face of the figure even though she was still about 150 meters away.

It was a very young and immature face. He looked to be only sixteen or seventeen years old. His shoulders were slightly slumped, his back was slightly curved, and his steps were a little slow. His strides were small, but he moved quickly and unusually steadily. .

Overall, he gave people the impression of a student with little ambition and spirit, but Mai Shutoku could vaguely sense a detached and refined artistic conception in that decadent young man.

A person she had met before gave her a similar feeling. That was when her ninjutsu master took her to China to visit an old Taoist priest.

The old Taoist priest was a recluse, and his reclusive place was an unknown hill only two or three hundred kilometers away from this small town.

She followed her master up the mountain and walked for a long time on a winding and rugged mountain road in a mountain forest with no way out. Just when she, a ninja who was about to become a ninja, was almost confused, she and her master finally climbed to the top of the mountain. I saw a small courtyard enclosed by earthen walls and two wooden doors with holes in them.

In the courtyard is a small house made of adobe bricks, and a simple temple made of adobe. In the temple is a tablet to the gods carved by hand using irregular wooden boards. The small altar table in front of the tablet is covered with two pieces of cheap chemical fiber non-woven red cloth.

When she and her master arrived, the old Taoist priest was chopping firewood. He had a rosy complexion and wrinkles on his face. His gray beard hung down for more than a foot. When the old Taoist priest swung his axe, his beard swayed.

There was an old tree in the yard whose species she couldn't recognize. An old yellow dog with a bald head was tied to the old tree.

Everything in this small courtyard is shabby and shabby. Even the old Taoist priest's robes are covered with patches. Although they are all made of the same color cloth, the stitch marks of the patches are still obvious.

In this small courtyard that was so simple that even the ancients would shake their heads in disgrace, her master, whose ninjutsu was considered to be the best in Japan, knelt down in front of the old Taoist priest, pulled her and said hello respectfully, and then stood up with a humble expression to replace the old Taoist priest. After chopping the firewood, I went to the distant river to fetch seven buckets of water and came back. Then I chatted with the old Taoist priest until the sun set in the west.

Jiudoku Mai waited beside him boredly, unable to see anything special about the old Taoist priest that deserved such respect from his master.

She actually felt that although the old yellow dog tied to the tree in the distance looked too old and would not live long, his eyes were very humane and agile, and even made her feel like she was facing a person.

In the dusk, the master got up and walked with the old Taoist priest to the adobe temple. She followed nonchalantly, watching the old Taoist priest take out a bundle of incense from nowhere and offer incense to the gods in the temple one by one.

At the moment when the old Taoist priest inserted the first three sticks of incense into the earthen pot used as an incense burner, the old Taoist priest in Jiude Mayi's eyes suddenly seemed to be a different person, and every move was full of solemn charm.

As if a god really descended upon him at that moment, he offered incense to several other gods one by one.

The old yellow dog tied to the tree sat motionless on the ground. In Mai Shutoku's eyes, the leaves of the ancient trees in the courtyard that were rustled by the wind seemed to suddenly become quiet, and the adobe temple seemed to be covered with a layer of gold, as if there was something there. The clouds and mist are lifting underneath!

Every time the old Taoist priest offered incense, the solemn and majestic charm of his body increased. After several times of offering incense, what she saw in her eyes was no longer a pale-faced old man, but a majestic figure with a majestic presence in every move. God!

After the old Taoist priest paid tribute to the last three sticks of incense, all the charm and majesty on his body were gone. In the eyes of Jiude Mai, he was still the ordinary white-bearded old Taoist. The leaves of the old tree were still rustling, and the old yellow dog beside the tree had long been gone. Lie down and fall asleep.

Everything seemed to be Shutoku Mai's hallucination, and she even suspected that the old Taoist priest had secretly drugged the water she and her master drank.

After leaving, Mai Shutoku never went there again, but the god-like atmosphere and majesty made her unforgettable for a long time.

The sound of shuffling footsteps brought Shuutoku Mai back to her senses. The young man had arrived only a hundred and eighty meters away in front of her.

The moment she just saw the boy, Mai Shutoku was briefly immersed in memories - although the otherworldly feeling the boy gave her was not intuitively similar to the old Taoist priest's majesty that shone through the world, she felt inexplicably The two may essentially be the same thing.

But in the final analysis, this is just her "feeling". She doesn't even believe it, and it won't have any impact on her at all.

Hiding in the realm of Mingzhao, Mai Shutoku focused on the young man's face. With her eyesight, there was no difference between 180 meters and 12 meters in ordinary people's eyes. She could clearly see Lu Mingfei. s face.

Unlike before, where she could barely tell that the face was green, Mai Shutoku could clearly see the details on the young man's face.

Slightly fair skin, slightly droopy outer corners of the eyes, a fairly straight bridge of the nose, and lips that are neither thin nor thick, but the shape of the lips is not very good-looking either.

Even if such a face is not considered a handsome guy in the eyes of the well-informed Shutoku Mai, at least it can be said to be "good-looking".

However, Mai Shutoku didn't care whether the boy was good-looking or not. After seeing the photos in the mission information, she had already determined that this boy was her mission target - Lu Mingfei.

Mai Shutoku's slender arms passed through the gap between the iron cage railings, gently pressed on the mask of the "big guy", rubbed it slightly and pressed a certain protrusion, and the eyes of the mask quietly opened.

With the change of the mask, the covered eyes of the "big guy" were released. Through the small gap opened in the mask, a pair of scorching hot eyes with cold vertical pupils of a snake-like creature were reflected in the moonlight. golden cold light.

Walking on the road, frowning because of the information he found a few hours ago, Lu Mingfei, who was deep in thought, suddenly raised his head and looked at a green belt dozens of meters ahead.

He didn't know why, but he suddenly had a strange feeling that there were eyes staring at him.

Human thinking and courage are very wonderful things. Sometimes a person's sudden and inexplicable thought will have a great impact on them.

For example, when walking at night, as long as you don't think about the weird things on the road and focus on the road and some serious things, even if you play with your mobile phone for a while to distract your mind, you won't find the night road scary.

But once you think about "are there eyes looking at me behind you/in the corner/in the grass, is there something there?", even if you immediately open the game remedy on your phone, your brain will still subconsciously imagine in those places "eyes" or something else, and then the surrounding environment became more and more weird, and finally scared myself half to death.

This is the case for Lu Mingfei at this moment. Together with the thought of "there are eyes in the green belt", Lu Mingfei increasingly feels that there are eyes in the green belt, even though he knows intellectually that this is impossible, even if he already had mana yesterday. , but thinking, or imagination, is really something that cannot be controlled.

Even though he had walked this road more than once at night, Lu Mingfei couldn't help but feel tingly in his heart as he thought about it.

The hair on Lu Mingfei's body suddenly stood up, and his steps subconsciously slowed down, but this was the nearest way home, and he had already walked more than half of it, so he couldn't turn back and change the way now.

It's all psychological anyway, just walk over and you'll be fine.

With this mentality, Lu Mingfei quickened his pace and walked forward. As he walked, he couldn't help but stare closely at the green belt.

Just when Lu Mingfei was only about ten meters away from the green belt, in his sight, two golden lights suddenly lit up in the green belt.

The next moment, those two points of golden light swayed up and down and rushed towards him quickly. Behind the golden light was a human-like body with reflective surface and running on all fours!

The monster with golden eyes was extremely fast. It accelerated from a standstill at a distance of more than ten meters and rushed in front of Lu Mingfei in less than two seconds. A sharp claw with a nail ten centimeters long was raised high!

Suddenly, a monster in his imagination really jumped out of his sight, and rushed straight to the door. At that moment, Lu Mingfei, who had no reaction at all, stared blankly at the monster rushing in front of him, raising its claws, and his dull black pupils suddenly suddenly Shine bright golden light, full of majesty!

Lu Mingfei swung his left arm subconsciously, and the magic power in his ancestral orifice flowed to his arm according to his will. The swung arm instantly turned into a whistling phantom!

Because it had been raining during the day, I was afraid of getting the signed contract wet so I didn’t dare to mail it. Finally, the rain stopped and the post office was closed...

No matter what I say tomorrow, I have to send the contract first...

Although this chapter is a bit watery, it’s only 5,000 words! ! ! (My previous Dragon Clan chapter seems to have been discontinued. After all, I have to leave room for Shao Zai to grow...)

This is supposed to be a slow-burning one. After all, Shao Zai is really bad. It’s really troublesome for him to grow up with this character who can’t stand up to the wall...

However, I still want to write about this troublesome bad boy. The reason is probably because I have fantasized about all the things he fantasizes about. I really see my own reflection in this bad boy... Growing up, who has not thought What about the child who died after a while?
