The Old Gods Are Whispering

  Chapter 55 Find me a chair

  In fact, Gu Jianlin didn't know what kind of mood he was in when he pushed the door open.

  The dilapidated room, the walls haven't even been painted, the red bricks and the mud bumps in the brick joints are exposed, obviously no one has been in for a long time, when the air starts to circulate, the dust blows in.

  There is only an old wooden table, a ballpoint pen, and scattered documents in the room.

   In addition, there is a world map with black circles on the wall, and a chair with a sprained leg.

  Gu Jianlin stretched out his hand to stroke the rough tabletop, and there was a lot of dust on his fingers.

   Those circled on the map may be the places that man has been to.

  He has traveled all over the world, even some remote small countries, which he has never even heard of.

  Gu Jianlin looked at the scattered documents on the table again, there were only three in total, all covered in dust.

  The handwriting is really ugly, it's that guy's style, and ordinary people may not be able to recognize this kind of scribbled handwriting.

"On July 13, 20xx, the corpse at the Gate of Hell in Kunlun was identified as one of the three giants of the Ether Association, code-named Guangming. The person who killed him is suspected to be a supreme being. This is not a good thing, Ether The power structure of the association is about to change. At the same time, I received news that Rhine has become the new giant, sitting in the east."

"I know that the days of fallen people all over the world will be difficult from now on. Although fallen people will show extreme aggressiveness, bloodthirsty and cruelty after being polluted. But some people have never done anything even if they fall. Anything that hurts nature. For example, Brother Mu, he would rather take natural grass than harm others..."

"I think I have to do something for them, at least find a way to let them survive. Although this may ruin my future, Brother Mu brought me into the Night's Watch back then. He was my benefactor. People, Don't be ungrateful."

"Brother Mu's daughter, Wanwan, is so cute. I think I haven't seen my son for a long time, and I miss him a little bit. Although I can only see his paralyzed face when I go back, I might be scolded by him, but I Still miss him a lot.”

   "But I can't go back. I still haven't figured out the last point of the logic of the curse. If you can avoid the curse as long as you don't become a sublimator, then I try not to appear in front of him."

"It's a pity. I have traveled all over the years and saved a lot of treasures. But it doesn't matter. Although I can't give it to him directly, I can leave it to others. If one day I am gone, they can help me protect him. This kid must Unexpectedly, what I left him, hehehe."

"But with his character, 80% does not need other people's protection. I still remember that he was bullied in elementary school. I was furious and wanted to avenge him, but the next day I heard that the bad guys who bullied him The child was beaten with a sap in the alley. Hahaha, I am really convinced by this old sixth!"

   "Boss, I'm sorry, I digressed. You know that I used to be an author, and I used to write things with water. It seems that I am really getting old, and I miss my son and ex-wife more and more."

   "According to my investigation, our long-standing speculation has finally been confirmed."

"The ancient gods are a special race from the deep space of the universe. At present, our night watchmen have fought against only the ancient gods of the ancestor level. And above the ancestor level, there are also ancient gods of the ancestor level. The supreme ancestor is above the ancestor level. They are supreme!"

  "We have always misjudged the power of the ancient gods. At least as far as the Supremes are concerned, their strength is far more than that. They have to find a new habitat because the original world they are in is destroyed."

   "Every supreme being should have the ability to devour the entire planet. Once they are restored to their full strength, all human resistance will be futile. Even natural disaster-level ascendants cannot resist that kind of power."

"Guangming should have died at the hands of a supreme being. His body was split into countless small pieces. It took me and my little apprentice seven days and seven nights to put him together. According to my profile, Guangming When he died, the time and space he was in were shattered, this is the authority of Venerable Candle Dragon, and the way to kill ghosts came because of him."

   "The bad news is that there is still a living Supreme in the human world."

   "The good news is that in the human world, there is no energy that the ancient gods need. Therefore, they cannot exert the power of their heyday in the real dimension, and they cannot even manifest their own bodies."

  "Human beings are not hopeless, because even the supreme being in the human world cannot use his full strength."

  The first document ended abruptly here, it should be an abandoned draft.

   Really want to report to the boss, not so much nonsense.

  For Gu Jianlin, the amount of information in it is not insignificant.

  In the world of the ancient gods, there are three major classes.

  ancestor, first ancestor, supreme.

   And the supreme power possessed by the Supreme can even devour the planet!

   Until this moment, Gu Jianlin didn't know what kind of power he got.

  Of course, due to the suppression of another supreme being, the unicorn power in his body was extremely weak.

   It takes a long time to develop.

   But the upper limit is beyond doubt.

   After all, Venerable Candle Dragon was even able to kill a giant of the Aether Association.

  If he guessed correctly, the three giants of the Ethereum Association should be the top of mankind.

  As for the fact that the ancient gods were restricted in reality, he had already guessed it.

   And it's a personal experience.

  Gu Jianlin shook out the second document, his expression became extremely serious.

   "On September 3, 2020, Rhine, one of the three giants of the Ethereum Association, announced that he had observed the dimensional anchor of the Qilin Asgard, which is located on the coast of the East China Sea, not far from Fengcheng. This coincidence makes me feel a little uneasy."

   "The place where Brother Mu and the others encountered pollution when they dived back then happened to be the East China Sea! It was Rhine who ordered a thorough investigation at the beginning! I wonder if he knows something? What happened to Brother Mu back then? Why did he lose his memory again?"

   "Boss, the exploration project of Qilin Immortal Palace has encountered a bottleneck. Let me participate in the investigation. Qilin Immortal Palace is too close to my wife and children. If there is any accident, I will take care of it."

   "Please boss, I can't let my wife and children have an accident."

   With a solemn expression, Gu Jianlin flipped through the third document.

"January 1, 2022, the new year is here. I came back from the outer periphery of the Qilin Fairy Palace. It is really dangerous here. There are big ruins in the city, and there are even higher-level disaster ruins deep in the forbidden area. I I was a little hurt, because they turned into my son and came to me, I wanted to see my son more, but I didn't go down for a while."

"Actually, I should have done it. I thought the number of disaster ruins was rare, but I didn't expect there to be so many. In just one hour, I actually killed more than forty sons. No wonder fathers like to beat their sons. It's really cool. Only It's a pity that that kid has been obedient since he was a child, and he didn't give me a chance to try it, so I can only enjoy myself with the disaster."

"I have confirmed one thing, the blood of the ancient gods cannot be used indiscriminately. Brother Mu and the others cannot withstand the baptism of the blood of the ancient gods in their physical condition. That kind of power will directly explode their bodies, or let them directly enter severe distortion state."

"Even if Brother Mu and the others took the blood of the ancient gods when they were first polluted, it may not be a good thing. The blood of the ancient gods can renew their lives and give them great power, but it will also make them slaves .”

   "Once the ancient gods who produced the blood of the ancient gods are still in the real world, they will immediately sense their existence. The spiritual will of the ancient gods can directly control them, and they cannot be detached forever."

"But I accidentally learned of a secret medicine formula, which might save their lives. Although the price is to make them lose all their spirituality and become ordinary people. But it's better than this. Humans live like ghosts or ghosts." It's better to go down."

   "I will find a way to continue searching for this secret medicine formula, so that Wan Wan can live in the sun as soon as possible."

   "I found hope for Wanwan's matter, but I still don't have any clue about the curse."

   "I'm forty years old and probably don't have much time left."

   "I'm sorry, son. Dad is useless. Dad is sorry for you."

  In silence, Gu Jianlin put down the three documents in his hand.

  The huge darkness oppressed him, almost making him unable to breathe, and he could only retreat step by step.

  Because he saw a trace scratched by nails on the wooden table, and there were still mottled and coagulated blood.

He seemed to be able to imagine that a man came to Heiyun City Walled City many years ago and built this secret base underground. He spent many lonely nights writing reports to pass the time, thinking in the dark, and grieving in loneliness. .

   Although the tone between the lines is relaxed and freehand.

  But the last miserable scratch revealed too much despair.

  In fact, Gu Jianlin more or less complained about that man.

  Because he neglected his family, he got divorced.

  Because he has been on business trips, the father and son get together less often.

  However, at this moment, Gu Jianlin realized how ignorant he was.

   Actually, that man never left his wife and son.

   It's just a last resort, and I can only use another way to protect them.

  Gu Jianlin's heart was inexplicably sad, and his eyes were red.

  Because while he was living a comfortable life, his father was traveling all over the world in order to lift the curse, experiencing countless life and death crises, but he never complained.

   At the end, he was still apologizing to his son.

  Thinking about it now, when Gu Ci'an was in his forties, he seemed to have a premonition of his own death.

  The reason why he came back in such a hurry that day was because he knew that he had been wanted by the association and lost the qualification to live in the sun.

   Wants to run away with his son.

  Finally, the nightmare of fate arrived as expected.

  Such a father, why do you still blame him?

  Gu Jianlin took a deep breath, forcibly restraining his surging emotions.

  At this moment, he found someone poking his hand lightly.

"Big brother."

  Wan Wan opened her smart eyes: "Is Uncle Gu okay? When will he come back?"

  Gu Jianlin lowered her head, her eyes were as clear and shining as stars in the dark night.

   This little girl should have already guessed his identity.

  That's why he kept secretly looking at him.

  Maybe there are many things I want to ask him.

  He squatted down, was silent for a second, and said softly: "I don't know, but he should be doing well, right? If he knows that you are still thinking about him, he should be very happy."

  Wan Wan tilted her head curiously: "Don't you know?"

Gu Jianlin smiled silently: "Well, like your father, he was also slandered, hunted and killed, and then fled. But don't worry, he went to a place where no one can find him ,very safe."

  Wan Wan felt a lot more at ease when she heard what he said.

   But there was a hint of disappointment in her eyes.

  Gu Jianlin asked softly, "Are you waiting for him to come back?"

  Wan Wan nodded vigorously, and said softly: "Because we are leaving here, I'm afraid he won't find us again."

  Gu Jianlin raised his hand to stroke her hair.

  Although she lives in the basement, her hair is a bit dry and yellow, but it feels good.

  Wan Wan lowered her head and did not hide.

   "Did he promise you something?"

  Gu Jianlin asked softly: "You tell me the same."

  Wan Wan shook her head, her ponytail dangling.

  She trotted away, and when she came back, she held an ugly wooden sculpture in her arms.

  Well, it can only be vaguely seen that it is a man.

   "I carved this with my own hands."

She took out a crystal pendant as deep as violets from her clothes, and said seriously: "This pendant was given to me by Uncle Gu, who said it would protect my safety. I promise him that when he comes back next time, I will give it to you." He returned the gift."

  Gu Jianlin looked at the ugly wood carving.

   Another glance at the little girl's small hands covered with calluses and scars.

   Then he clenched his palms silently.

  Because he knew that that man would not come back again.

   "Big brother, can you give this wood carving to him for me?"

  Wan Wan blinked her eyes and asked innocently.

  Gu Jianlin was silent for a second, then rubbed her head again, and said in a low voice: "It's okay, if there are no accidents, he will come back to see you one day. When the time comes, you can leave it to him yourself."

  Wan Wan stared at him blankly for a second, then let out an oh.

  At this time, there was a roar from outside the basement, and someone stumbled in.

   "Boss!"

   It was a thin young man, and he was not disabled, but was covered in blood and cuts and bruises.

"An accident happened! A group of investigators from the association came outside. It seems that they were wiped out by the gravedigger organization. Now the black fog has dissipated. Hasegawa Shinichi will lead people into the depths of the restricted area and arrest our people Be a guinea pig."

  The man vomited blood while talking, knelt on the ground weakly, and leaned on his body with a knife: "The supplies we collected outside for three days were also taken away. Sister Qing Ge was arrested by them to protect us."

  When the old man heard this, his expression became extremely solemn, and his hand holding the long knife made a crackling sound.

   There was a snap.

  Wan Wan sat down on the ground, tears streaming down her face.

  Gu Jianlin walked out of the room, frowning.

  I don't know who that Qing Ge sister is.

   But judging from the expressions of the father and daughter, they should also be very important people.

   "Sorry kid, the person who delivered the medicine to your companion has been captured by the gravedigger organization."

  The old man stood up with a long knife in his hand, and said gently, "That's my second daughter, Wan Wan's sister. Now I'll take someone to rescue her, you and your friends just wait here."

   After the voice fell, many people in the refuge opened their eyes, put on their clothes expressionlessly, and took up weapons.

  Even the crippled Uncle Sun at the door took out two guns from his arms.

   Gu Jianlin thought about the documents left by his father, and took another look at these people.

  Especially this old man, he should be what my father called Brother Mu.

   is also a benefactor.

   "I'll go with you."

  Gu Jianlin said calmly: "You have helped me and my friends, and now I will help you too."

The old man stared into his eyes, smiled silently, and said: "I have accepted the idea, but we are fallen, it is better for you not to appear with us, it will affect your future. You need to remember , The power structure in the association has changed a few years ago, and now there is a lot of internal fighting."

   "You are the son of Lao Gu, your talent must be fine, you must go to the headquarters."

  He said: "When you enter the headquarters, no one will be able to target you and exclude you."

  Gu Jianlin didn't say anything, just passed the old man and walked outside.

   "It doesn't matter, my future... cannot be blocked by the Ether Association."

  He said lightly: "Find me a chair, I'll go and kill Hasegawa Shinichi."

   Four thousand words, a bit late, sorry.
