Barrier of Light

Chapter 478 News from the teacher

Dongzhou, Dadu District.

The night on the river beach is as quiet as ever.

A woman wearing a red and white sacrificial robe holds a sweet potato and eats it in small bites.

This was the best food she had eaten in a while.

Perhaps because of the need to "dissipate", the last meal is often the most delicious... Chu Ling said silently in his heart.

So, eat slower, and slower still.

The two of them walked along the river bank quietly and slowly. Finally, Chu Ling found an old but clean wooden bench and sat down. The two of them cuddled up and watched the world of the river. The lights were extinguished one after another.

Thousands of words are lost in silence.

Gu Shen felt the slight trembling of the woman in his arms.

Like a cat fluffing out its fur.

That is actually the flow and overflow of source matter...

The "wishing technique" of Shenshi Mountain has reached its limit.

Chu Ling's body is about to burn out.

Someone lit fireworks in Yinghai District at night, and puffs of light burst out in the distant sky.

Chu Ling looked at the fireworks in front of him.

She seemed to understand something, smiled softly, and murmured: "So this is what 'death' feels like..."

Chu Ling raised his palm.

The golden thread wrapped around the fingertips spread out uncontrollably.

From this moment on, Chu Ling could no longer use divination because she was losing her body, and losing her body meant that she could no longer pay the price of spying on her destiny.

Chu Ling was a little emotional.

Regarding the feeling of "death", Tie Wu said it quite vividly, but he seemed to be only half right.

Chu Ling silently stretched out her palm, like a camera, and tried to see the night sky with fireworks blooming in the distance. This was the last picture she left for herself before "death"... It turns out that death is really like fireworks.

It's just that her death was more like a scene where the word "fireworks" was broken apart.

Drifting away like smoke.

Withered like a flower.

This is a very slow process... When the fireworks dissipate, so does she.

The two people cuddling on the bench just became one person.

Gu Shen looked at the red and white sacrificial clothes scattered and stacked on the bench. The faint fragrance was still lingering in front of his nose, and the girl who went south with him had already dissipated into the long night.

His expression was a little complicated.

Gu Shen stretched out his hands to pick up the scattered sacrificial robe, and then a small orange cat head emerged from the robe.

"Meow."

The orange cat's eyes were full of confusion.

It didn't understand why the sweet-smelling girl who was hugging him just now disappeared all of a sudden.

"Gu Shen!"

The night on the river beach did not remain peaceful for long.

A familiar voice sounded from behind. Gu Shen hugged the orange cat and looked back.

Old acquaintance.

"New Year's Eve?"

He couldn't help laughing when he looked at the man wearing a motorcycle helmet who was a little unbalanced when he walked because he was top-heavy.

After being away for many days, Hu Danian is still the same as before.

But when he pulled off the helmet with force, Gu Shen knew that he was wrong.

Hu Danian has long flowing hair, but when paired with a tight-fitting brown motorcycle suit, it looks a bit like...

Gu Shen was thinking about adjectives.

Hu Danian laughed loudly and said, "Tell me loudly, do I look like a majestic lion now!"

"No, more like a bear in heat."

Gu Shen sighed.

He stood up and gave Hu Danian a symbolic hug.

Reunion.

The New Year is still the New Year.

"Headquarters said they have something to ask you...but your 'spiritual link' is closed to the outside world."

Hu Danian scratched his head and said: "Madam and Mr. Xiao Cui provided you with your location. I thought it would not be difficult to find someone, so I set off... No, it's so late at night, why don't you leave me alone to watch the moon? ?”

Gu Shen smiled bitterly.

Obviously Madam and Mr. Xiao Cui knew that they and Chu Ling were secretly traveling south.

So they didn't bother me.

It's just that... Hu Danian, a fool, doesn't know this news.

"Hey wait, something is weird."

Hu Danian glanced at the bench and saw a set of women's skirts. Then he looked at Gu Shen with a strange expression, "You don't know how to..."

"well……"

Gu Shen sighed leisurely.

What a headache.

It would be troublesome to explain this outfit...

He stretched out his hand, motioning for Hu Danian to come closer, and then flicked out a wisp of blazing fire, which hit the center of Hu Danian's eyebrows.

Than explain.

Gu Shen chose to use blazing fire to erase this "bad" memory in Hu Danian's mind.

Crisp and efficient.

They had just met and before they could even exchange greetings, he knocked him down. Gu Shen felt a little sorry in his heart.

But...it's not deep.

After all, this is not the first time this has happened to Hu Danian.

"Brother Danian, you'd better have a good sleep."

Huazhi Building.

Gu Shen pushed open the door of the conference room on the top floor. As he expected, a small emergency meeting was taking place here. Several of his acquaintances were present, including Lu Nanzhi, Cui Zhongcheng, and Nanwan MP Chen San.

"You're the only one?"

Lu Nanzhi looked at this unexpected guest, smiled, took a sip of coffee, and asked, "That Miss Chu didn't come with you?"

Of course she's here...and she's looking at you.

Gu Shen smiled, resisted the urge to say the previous words, and said softly: "She went back first."

"Actually, the headquarters doesn't want to disturb your vacation."

Senator Chen San looked at his watch with a sincere expression and said slowly: "Logically speaking... you should be enjoying a sweet vacation on the river beach, right?"

"It would be really sweet now if no one sent out the coordinates."

Gu Shen pulled up a chair and sat down, slowly turned around, and said with a smile: "Mr. Xiao Cui, don't say that you accidentally let Hu Danian see the coordinates... I'm afraid you are the only one here who understands the character of that fool. ."

Councilor Chen San understood at this moment why Gu Shen came to this building.

This was the result of Cui Zhongcheng sending someone to "invite" him.

"Although the two congressmen said they don't want to disturb you, I personally feel that it is still necessary to disturb you. It is more appropriate for me to do this kind of thing."

Cui Zhongcheng folded his hands and did not deny his behavior. Instead, he looked at the big screen and said calmly: "After all, the news coming back from Beizhou this time is probably related to your teacher..."

Gu Shen's expression became serious.

Dongzhou has now entered a short period of stability, and the two major districts of Nagano and Dadu have extremely suitable "steers". In this situation, there are only two things that need to be informed by the headquarters.

Either there is something wrong with Qingzhong Cemetery.

Or, it involves teachers from Beizhou.

The super-large disaster area in Piyue City Fortress has been expanding for a whole year. During this year, the Queen of Beizhou chose to tolerate the expansion of the disaster area with great courage.

But it's a pity... There has never been any news about the teacher in the disaster area of ​​Piyue City.

"Fifteen days ago, a small team from the Survey Corps set out from the Kubao Fortress."

Cui Zhongcheng said slowly: "This team is under the command of General White Lizard. Each member is an elite in the Survey Corps. This mission is named 'Maze 38' in the deep sea database."

on the screen.

An area is enlarged.

That was the map after the Kubao Fortress went north. From the area beyond the giant wall, there was almost a huge fog. It was a "disordered land" swallowed by extraordinary source matter and covered by black holes.

Even the [Deep Sea] cannot extend beyond the giant wall.

Over the years, only through their own exploration can humans improve the map outside the giant wall bit by bit... In this fog, a narrow curve snakes.

Gu Shen narrowed his eyes, stared at the map, and memorized it in his mind.

He noticed that the end point of this map seemed to be a snow-capped mountain canyon.

"The mission of this elite team is to explore the correct way out of this canyon..." Cui Zhongcheng said calmly: "It's just that the Beizhou military has determined that this mission has failed."

"mission failed?"

Gu Shen frowned.

"After leaving the giant wall, [Deep Sea] cannot provide assistance, but the Beizhou military's survey corps has a sealed object that can sense the 'state of life and death'... On the original return date, this team of extraordinary people The life status is all changed to death."

Gu Shen understood what Cui Zhongcheng meant.

[Deep Sea] cannot provide help. The information outside the giant wall needs to be brought back by the extraordinary team.

And every time you explore, you may face the situation of "losing all your money".

Once the entire army is wiped out.

Then the survey corps within the giant wall will need to make adjustments.

"That sealed object is called the 'Book of Life and Death'."

At this moment, the old man in gray shirt Gu Zhi, who had been waiting quietly beside Councilor Chen San, suddenly spoke, "Every extraordinary person who leaves the giant wall must be registered in the 'Book of Life and Death'. The so-called registration is Leave your own blood. The spiritual imprint of each extraordinary person is unique, and the 'Book of Life and Death' can form a connection with it... Theoretically, if the spiritual imprint is not erased, the extraordinary person will still be alive."

He had participated in the North Continent Survey Corps' giant wall mission.

The injuries on his body were also incurred at that time.

"So...the erasure of these people's mental imprints is enough to prove their death."

Cui Zhongcheng continued: "After the death was confirmed in the Book of Life and Death, [Deep Sea] determined that the mission of 'Maze Thirty-Eight' was a complete failure, and just as the Survey Corps was preparing to dispatch the next team to carry out the mission of 'Maze Thirty-Nine' At that time...an accident happened."

A picture appeared on the screen.

That was a blurry picture sent back by the Beizhou military.

A man covered in blood was lying on a stretcher... Gu Shen remembered the face of this man. He was the captain of the six-man team.

"Hong Zhong is a spiritual extraordinary person with the ability [Red Dice] and the ninth level of strength in the deep water area. He serves as the captain of the seventh elite team of the Survey Corps."

Lu Nanzhi looked at the man on the screen and said calmly: "He is back alive."

This is an accident.

Gu Shen fell into silence.

Chu Ling, who returned to Linglingyao's spiritual space, also fell into silence.

"This is impossible."

Chu Ling thought for a long time and gave his answer: "Putting aside all the unreasonable points, just returning to Beizhou from the mission target point, fifteen days is not enough at all."

Not to mention, this is a team that encountered unexpected circumstances.

"Don't be anxious and surprised, because there is another even more incredible thing..."

Lu Nanzhi said: "He insisted that he saw the 'oasis' and saw other survivors in the 'oasis'. As evidence, Hong Zhong handed over an item to the Beizhou military."

"That's a broken piece of sawdust..."

On the screen, a piece of purple sawdust was continuously enlarged and then enlarged.

"Through trace analysis and breath detection... [Deep Sea] preliminary calculation results are that there is a 67% chance that this piece of wood chips came from Zhou Jiren's walking stick."
