Night Watchman - C295
Hearing Dong Hai’s words, I was stunned on the spot, and my mind went blank. Even Zhang Zi Kong didn’t expect it at all. He frowned as he started to look at the golden cross in Dong Hai’s hands.
I remember the first time I saw Qiong Qi was when we had just entered the outer Mongolia territory. At that time, we had entered a small town, and we later found out that that small town was used to imprison the ghoul lord. The first time we met Qiongqi, he had gone into the room to imprison him because of the greed of the skinny little monkey who was with us. The first time we saw the cross that was used to imprison Qiong Qi, we thought of it as a kind of magic tool and never thought of it in this way!
Now that he thought about it, those monks who came all the way from the heavens were obviously here for impure purposes!
And if I guessed correctly, it was a gang of foreign bandits, and one who was after the secret of the Golden Man of the Holy Mountain!
Although they had successfully brought the secrets of the Golden Man out of the Sacred Mountain, they encountered an accident on their way back. This was most likely related to that Qiong Qi! However, after so many years and without any relevant evidence, it is already impossible for me to prove my thoughts.
However, from the looks of the golden cross, it seemed that Qiong Qi had been imprisoned in that canyon from the very beginning, acting as the guardian of the Golden Man’s secret.
Genghis Khan had conquered almost all of Europe, and the cross he had used to imprison Qiongqi was probably the work of an exotic spell he had obtained from Western Europe. Moreover, with this strange beast around, ordinary tomb robbers wouldn’t be able to pry into the secrets of the Golden Man.
However, that group of tomb robbers probably knew the secret method of the cross. Moreover, from the fact that they could actually enter the Sacred Mountain, they were definitely not ordinary people. It was not impossible to take the golden cross and then use the Wealthy Qi to suppress the ghoul lord.
When I thought of this, I saw Zhang Zikong’s expression begin to turn ugly.
In the past, he never had such an ugly expression on his face. Even if the danger was too great and he was seriously injured, he had never had such an expression before!
But this time… From Zhang Zikong’s expression, one could already guess that what Dong Hai said was most likely true!
“Nephew Zhang, don’t look at me with such a gaze. If it wasn’t for your father’s reluctance to touch this secret, he wouldn’t have died so early! ”
Hearing Dong Hai’s words, Zhang Zi Kong’s face instantly darkened, and the veins on his face were popping out one by one. Although his expression didn’t look out of place, his eyes were filled with resentment!
“Have you ever thought about why those twelve protectors of the Golden Man had such a good opportunity but didn’t think about using their entire set of skills alone?”
Zhang Zi Kong’s words not only piqued our interest, but also Dong Hai’s interest.
After hearing his words, Dong Hai acted like it didn’t matter, “Oh? Does nephew know the reason behind this? I would like to hear more about it! ”
Hearing that, Zhang Zi Kong laughed, and continued: “It’s not that they do not wish to learn these twelve mystical methods, but that one person can only learn one, and that person will be punished by the heavens if he learns more!”
Hearing Zhang Zi Kong’s words, Dong Hai immediately laughed, “Hahahaha, your nephew really knows how to joke around! I have more than one or two spells on my body. Why can’t the heavenly punishment be inflicted on me? And you’ve been pursuing the Golden Man’s secret, haven’t you? ”
With that, Dong Hai took out a jade pendant from his chest pocket. When that Yu Jue appeared, I was stunned!
Because what he took out was nothing else, it was the Everlasting Jue that I hid in a storage shelf in the train station!
“Look, I have this thing now, why would I be afraid of some divine punishment? At the end of the day, all of you are wearing a mask of hypocrisy and righteousness, saying that you are afraid of the reality of the treasure causing you to be annihilated, but in reality, all of that is a lie that you are deceiving yourselves! ”
Right after Dong Hai finished speaking, Zhang Zi Kong immediately laughed out loud. “Your ‘Longevity Jue’ can keep you alive, but have you ever considered your family? “You are still alone. If this is not the divine punishment, then what is it?”
Dong Hai’s sore spot was poked by Zhang Zi Kong. His face immediately darkened. Without saying anything further, he brandished the weapon in his hand and pounced towards us!
Although his movements aren’t as fast as that of the ghoul lord, he can do nothing about it. All of us are heavily injured right now.
Hua Zi and Bian Tou, the ones with the least injuries among the four of us, saw Dong Hai rushing towards us and immediately stepped forward to stop him. However, they were kicked away by Dong Hai! When they landed, they, who had their ribs broken by Titan, fell onto the ground and fainted!
Even though I wanted to help Zhang Zi Kong, I couldn’t do anything about it. I was completely supported by my willpower, and besides my eyes, there was no other place in my body that I could move! As such, he could only watch helplessly as Dong Hai’s thin blade pierced Zhang Zikong’s chest!
With one hit, Dong Hai kicked Zhang Zi Kong’s chest! The moment Zhang Zikong fell to the ground, a stream of blood spurted onto Dong Hai’s face, making him, who was already ferocious to begin with, become even more ferocious!
Seeing this, I wanted to skin Dong Hai alive! But now that I’m a fish and a human is a knife, we don’t have any means to fight him!
After pulling the blade out of Zhang Zikong’s body, Dong Hai looked at me with an evil grin, “Heh, heh! Zhou Yu, right? Haven’t you always wanted to stop me? Now that I am right in front of you and the things that I want are in my hands, you should come! ”
I already hated him so much that he gritted his teeth. Even without him saying anything, I wanted to eat his flesh and drink his blood, but my strength was too weak to stop his scheme in the slightest!
Dong Hai, on the other hand, laughed at me while he placed the blade against my neck!
If someone had put a knife to my neck before, I would have been scared. But at this moment, in my heart, other than anger, I had already forgotten the fear!
But when Dong Hai placed the blade on my neck, he didn’t say anything to me. Instead, he raised his head and looked at the surroundings and shouted: “Seems like Zhang Zi Kong is indeed as the legends say, not a member of your Zhang Family! Even after seeing him die in my hands, no one was willing to come out! “And when you see this man die?”
After saying that, Dong Hai raised the blade in his hand high up, as if he was going to slash down on me!
