Chapter 1117: The Great Trial of Heart Demons (2)(1/2)
Judging from the current clues, the reason for the failure of the first trial was that grandpa's uphill time was delayed. The delay in uphill time caused the "possibly" failure to discover Tai Sui.
This is the most direct result, otherwise it cannot explain why the trial failed just by not drinking the soup.
It is precisely because of this that he intuitively felt that Tai Sui was discovered to have something else.
The Great Trial of the Inner Demon had no clue, he could only peel off the cocoons in a thread and grasp everything possible. Moreover... he didn't know how many times the Grand Trial would be restarted and what would be the consequences of failures many times.
After rushing out of the house in one step, the long-lost Liu Ertuozi Village appeared in front of him again.
The abandoned countryside, the dilapidated houses... and the city far away from the mountains. Everything is so familiar.
This is a mountain village, a real village, which is completely different from the so-called countryside in 19 or 20 years. It is almost isolated from the world, and the road to go up and down the mountain is only one leg. It is located in Funiu Mountain.
It has been seven years since the founding of Xinhua Kingdom. They have been living a very bad life on the mountain, and they have been hiding wars on the mountain. In the early days of the founding of the country, everything was in trouble, and the glory of socialism could not shine here. Even Guangxi, on the coast, is still in a great famine, not to mention inland.
There are too many people who can't eat enough.
These old information quickly passed by Qin Ye's mind. Just as he was walking out of the door, a man in Zhongshan suit was standing at the door.
The moment he saw the man, Qin Ye's eyes flashed suddenly, and then he immediately lowered his eyes.
He is now exactly what he looked like before he ate Tai Sui, an 18-year-old boy. Although he was not good at eating, his face was pale and thin, but his eyes were still shining with a young light.
The 18-year-old boy would never have the majestic gaze of the King of Hell. He was not sure whether he would be sentenced to failure again if he made an unfair move that was not suitable for his age.
"Child." It was a middle-aged man, a little thin, very white in skin, and a smile: "Is this Liujia Village?"
Qin Ye did not answer, but just lowered his head. Just above his body, the man's figure was pulled out by the sun, covering his low-high body at that time.
Now, it is between 11:30 and 12:00.
He had never seen this person back then!
And... the other party is not human at all!
There was no need to verify, he knew immediately: all his cultivation was still there.
This is a living zombie.
He could see clearly that an extremely complex Yin Talisman was drawn on the other party's vest. The other party probably walked all the way here. Even... had been "living" for many years.
Moreover, this is not a simple zombie. Under the skin, there are no bones! There are no internal organs!
Under Yan Luo's eyes, no ghosts and monsters could hide.
He could see clearly that under the other party’s skin... were the so-called bones supported by bamboo strips!
The workmanship is extremely exquisite, and it can be said to be a masterpiece.
There were actually zombies coming to Liu Ertuozi Village? Just before Tai Sui appeared, what was going on?
Who made this monster?
"Child?" The smile on the man's face remained unchanged and asked again: "Is this Liujia Village?"
"Yes." Qin Ye finally raised his head and answered quickly.
At this point in time, in this direction... he may have talked to his grandfather.
The man nodded and continued to smile: "Is there a Taoist temple in the mountain?"
There is indeed.
Qin Ye nodded indifferently, but in fact he had quickly recalled the appearance of the Taoist temple in his mind.
I don’t know which dynasty left behind, most of the Taoist temples collapsed and were covered with trees. The remaining small piece was intact.
It is covered with vines, which has become a few entertainment places for children in Liujia Village when they were young. It is also the origin of various supernatural legends in the village.
At this moment, suddenly, a stern shout came: "Who are you! What are you here to do?! Stay away from my grandson!"
Grandpa Qin Zhongguo had arrived on the small road at some point. Before the person arrived, he waved the sickle in his hand and shouted angrily. The kind old man was now like an angry lion, with his mane standing up.
The man was still smiling, and his expression seemed to not change. However, he left Qin Ye politely for one meter. If Qin Ye hadn't seen their truth, I would have never thought that this would be an empty shell.
Qin Zhongguo rushed to Qin Ye quickly and looked at the man vigilantly. He said without saying a word. The man smiled and said, "Just ask for directions."
Qin Zhongguo sneered: "Ask for the way? Our village has been moving here for decades, and there is nothing. What road is there to ask?"
The man nodded gently and took another step back: "We are going to the Taoist temple in the mountains."
"If you are willing to lead the way, we will give you a hundred kilograms of good rice. Or..." He took out his arms and took out a stack of colorful bills: "A hundred kilograms of food bills."
Qin Ye's eyes became deeper again, but he had already hid behind the door and listened to the conversation at the door.
So that's it...it's really unexpected.
When you open yesterday's chapter, there are always things that will be found forgotten in the corner, but when you put it in the right position, you will find that... the whole diary has begun to slowly deviate from the direction.
First of all, it is food coupons.
On August 25, 1955, the 17th meeting of the Plenary Session of the State Council passed the "Interim Measures for the Printing of Quantitative Supply Vouchers in Municipalities". Immediately afterwards, various grain coupons entered the society in an overwhelming manner, becoming the mainstream purchase of the entire society, with a value even above the RMB.
It is now 56 years old, Qin Ye is eighteen years old. Food coupons have only been issued for more than a year, and it is a hot time. Some large denominations are hard to get tickets. This is still the situation in the Yanjing Demon Capital. It has arrived at the Funiu Mountain generation in Nanhe Province, let alone.
Those who can use food coupons are all leaders in society.
The man was wearing a brand new Zhongshan suit and his status within the system would not be too low. He was at least the second and third in charge of the Grain Department.
Looks like no problem?
yes.
It's really no problem.
However... no one knows the existence of a department.
Special Investigation Office!
The former guardian of the country!
Qin Ye knew very well that the Special Investigation Office had been reorganized in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China. Most of the souls who died during the war had no support due to the great collapse of the underworld. During that period, supernatural events far exceeded the previous spiritual tide in the world! All of these things were written into the information of the Special Investigation Office and were sealed in the past.
He remembered a set of numbers that he saw in the first training session.
From 1949 to 1959, the Special Investigation Office had a total of 54,000 investigators registered. This is comparable to the current number of investigators. In fact, before "breaking the four olds", there were still many special investigators.
However, 60 years later, the number of investigators has dropped sharply to more than 10,000!
Most of the survivors became senior executives of the Special Investigation Office in the future, such as Zhou Xianlong. But... more than 40,000 people were sacrificed in ten years!
It can be seen how terrible the yin and yang battle was at that time. I am afraid that it had reached the point where the predation area was full of the ground and the two sides were dying!
And the Special Investigation Office... has always been established not far from the city/county/village government!
The distance is so close, but I didn't find this human skin lantern? The other party is still a popular senior official in the Ministry of Food?
The person who created it...is probably more powerful than the judge.
It’s not that my grandfather didn’t know the dangers on the mountain. In this era, not only people were hungry, but animals were also hungry. However, for the sake of this hundred kilograms of grain, it was not only hungry for the sake of
He decided to take the risk and just wanted to fill his grandson's stomach.
"Is this... food coupon?" Qin Zhongguo's hands were trembling slightly when he saw this stack of food coupons.
Although he doesn't have food coupons, he will go down the mountain occasionally, so of course he knows what this means.
"How is it?" the man smiled and said, "Just lead the way and send us to the Taoist temple."
Qin Zhongguo's Adam's apple moved hard, gritted his teeth and nodded.
Can't refuse.
"when?"
"Now, how about it?"
"No!" Qin Zhongguo shook his head: "I just picked some wild vegetables, and my grandson hasn't eaten enough for a few days!"
Behind the door, Qin Ye closed his eyes and his eyes became hot again.
No one knows that this time, it will be a farewell forever.
It would be great if... both of them were back then...
If...ever we live forever together, how could we be so tired?
If...ever...everyone has been through this century together, wouldn't he... not be so lonely?
Tears flowed silently. He was not a crying person. This was his tears after a hundred years of separation. It was just... he hadn't reached the sad place.
He breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that it was not the time to consider these things. His eyes looked out the door: "Grandpa, I'll go with you later."
It did not violate the "settings", it was still that time, and it was still two people going up the mountain.
He remembered that it took him a long time to get hurt.
Thinking about it now, my grandfather was probably worried that these people would not benefit him, and at least he would keep the only seedlings of the Qin family.
Sure enough, Qin Zhongguo frowned and said lightly: "Eat first."
Qin Ye did not speak again, but as soon as one doubt fell, another doubt immediately emerged.
At that time... I had never seen this ghost!
