Nomenclature of Night

  Chapter 977 Waiting

   "You want to hand over the Qing family's authority to an outsider?" Someone asked doubtfully.

The old man was silent for a moment: "Now, the West Continent has killed Xiaosan as they wished, and maybe they also got the taboo Ant Queen. If they really have a way to find Qingchen through Xiaosan, then we have to prepare for the worst .”

  The so-called worst preparation is that Qing Chen is also found and killed by the Western Continent, or Qing Chen fails to become a god, and eventually becomes part of the will of the world, no longer has his own thoughts.

  Then, these people who are still alive in the Eastern Continent have to find their own way to face the future war.

  The most important thing now is that no one can be sure what happened to Qing Chen, no matter whether it is the chessboard of heaven and earth or the master of life, everyone can't see him.

The old man sat in the meeting room and looked at everyone present: "The first thing, please bring that zero over here, I have something to talk to her. The second thing, if we still can't be sure about this time through the cycle Regarding Qing Chen's life and death, everyone needs to determine his location as soon as he returns, find him, and see what state he is in."

   Everyone looked serious, Qing Chen's life and death had become the most critical link.

  At this time, Li Shutong looked at the old man: "What if Qingchen is really dead? I remember that you said...the only hope."

  The old man was silent for a moment and said: "Then we will fight until the last moment, and we will find a way to drag the Western Continent into **** together."

  Four hours later.

  A floating airship landed in Ginkgo Manor, Ling stepped off the airship, looked at the manor with great interest, and she came to the door of the cabin on the mountainside.

  The old man sat inside and said calmly, "Come in."

  The small door opened, and when Ling walked in, he glanced at the beam, where Qingji's son Qingwu was sitting cross-legged, practicing with his eyes closed.

   There was a chessboard in front of the old man, the black and white dragons were entrenched, and the black and white pieces were exhausted. Zero saw that there were not many black and white pieces left in the chess box next to him.

   Now that the chess game has reached its final moment, Heizi loses everything with one careless move.

Ling only glanced at it and immediately said: "You Qing family seems to have always liked the trick of putting them to death and then reviving. This game of chess seems to be the same as it was a thousand years ago. But this time, if you can't wait for Qing What should Dust do?"

The old man looked directly at the 'woman' who had almost destroyed the world: "I'm not sure whether Qing Chen will come back, but we can only hope that we can hold on long enough, and when he does come back, everything will be in time. "

  Zero: "That will cost a lot."

  Old man: "You should understand that human beings never lack the courage to pay the price."

  Zero got it.

  Zero said: "I'm curious, why are you willing to hand over the command to me?"

  The old man said: "At the official stage of Go, of course, the artificial intelligence that is proficient in calculation is the most powerful."

  Zero asked: "Aren't you afraid that I will destroy all mankind?"

The old man responded slowly: "Humanity was destroyed by nuclear bombs in the first era, but saved by nuclear bombs in the second era. The only constant in this world is change. I believe that there is a reason why Xiaosu didn't destroy you, and you are here In the long millennium, I have understood that apart from destruction, there may be more things to look forward to."

  Ling laughed: "If you want me to take over the command, then let me see everything you see on this chessboard. Do you have the courage?"

  The old man took out another black stone from the chess box and dropped it down, but the white stone in the chess box disappeared automatically and appeared on the chessboard.

  The world between the two is like a freeze frame.

  Three hours later, Zero slowly got up and walked out: "It's an interesting game of chess. You may not be a qualified leader, but you are a qualified father...Let me finish."

  …

  …

  The atmosphere in the general headquarters of the Qing Group Army was solemn. Xiaosan died, Qing Chen's life and death were uncertain, and everyone's mood sank to the bottom.

   In the middle of the spacious main room is a huge holographic sand table, on which is a topographic map of the entire southwest.

  Beside the holographic sand table, there are holographic projections of Qing Kun and Qing Yu, and Li Changqing who has become the head of the Li family.

  The headquarters was quiet. Hundreds of officers looked at Zero in front of them, and at the 'woman' who was about to command them.

Zero looked at the holographic sand table and said: "From now on, I will take over the command of Qing and Li. I don't have time to introduce myself to you. Just follow my orders. The first thing is that the team of the Parents' Association will Arrive at Jianmen Pass in two days. Qingkun, Shendai Yunluo, you go to Jianmen Pass today. After the parent meeting is passed, Jianmen Pass must help them block the air force fleet and buy time for their evacuation."

   Takahashi Ryosuke frowned and asked: "Why do you always let us go to such a dangerous place? Are you excluding dissidents?"

  Zero ignored him at all, but looked at Jindai Yunluo: "Go, or not?"

  Zero's way of speaking is too blunt, so that it gives people a very strong feeling.

  Those who followed Unra Kagami were filled with righteous indignation for a moment, as if they had been treated unfairly: they were the ones who bought time for the parent meeting and went to the most dangerous places before, but now they are still them.

  However, Jindai Yunluo just smiled and agreed: "I'll go."

  Zero nodded: "Then let's go, you don't need to attend the follow-up combat meeting, you only need to do this one thing well."

  Kamidai Yunluo turned around and took people away. Someone in the airport had already prepared a floating airship for them, and they went directly to Jianmen Pass.

  On the airship, Jindai Yunluo smiled and said: "Let's go, take the family members of the Parents' Association home."

  Takahashi Ryosuke finally couldn't bear it anymore: "Why did you let you go again?"

  Kamidai Yunluo was silent for a moment: "Because she knows very well that only I can go."

  …

  …

  In the headquarters.

  Ling looked at everyone: "Now let's talk about the second thing, Li Changqing, I need you to return to the Central Plains. Proceed according to the coordinates I sent you. Your route must be precise and you must not deviate without authorization."

  Ling sent out the coordinates, and this route actually drew a letter C on the holographic sand table, and it detoured back to the Central Plains!

   "You want me to cut off the supply line of their land army?" Li Changqing asked.

  Ling smiled and said, "That's right."

  Li's Air Force was completely annihilated in the city of No. 18, leaving only a green mountain air fortress.

  No one expected that the Qingshan had just arrived in the Southwest to join forces, but was reassigned to the most dangerous place in the Central Plains.

  Ling looked at Li Changqing: "Only by defending the southwest, the civilians who migrated from City 18 can survive. Although you will die, they may survive."

   "The satellite on the opposite side will find us in advance," Li Changqing said.

  Zero replied: "This route just missed their satellite."

  The east and west continents have been shooting down each other's satellites in the past, and no one is allowed to have satellite orbits on the equator line, so no one can monitor at all times.

  As for the satellite orbit of the Western Continent, Zero just knows it.

  However, this means that Li Changqing will go deep alone. Even if the air fortress has nuclear power to extend its battery life, it will be the enemy's hinterland. As long as they make a move, the opponent will definitely be able to surround them.

  Li Changqing was silent for a moment: "I'll go."

  Ling smiled and said: "This supreme command is really useful, Li Yinuo, Nan Gengchen, Li Tongyun, Liu Dezhu, Zhang Tianzhen, the five of you are with Qingshan."

  The five of them looked at each other in blank dismay, and they didn't know what was going on with this Zero, why did they suddenly send them to the Qingshan? But it doesn't matter, if the other party tells them to go, they will go.

  Five people left and boarded the Qingshan Air Fortress in a floating airship.

  …

  …

  Ling looked at Qingyu: "I'm asking Qing's Air Fleet to start retreating now."

  In the holographic projection, Qingyu frowned: "Why do you want to retreat? You sent outsiders like Shendai Yunluo and Li Changqing to the most dangerous place, but let us retreat. I, the soldiers of the Qing family, are not greedy for life and afraid of death."

  Ling smiled and said: "I'm not discussing with you, but asking you to implement it. I ask you to arrive at the edge of the forbidden land No. 001 within 10 days, and I will send you the coordinates."

  Qingyu replied: "Got it."

  Lingyi arranged more than a hundred orders in a series, and he talked endlessly as if he didn't need to think. Qing's war machine was fully mobilized, and the combat staff suddenly discovered that these orders covered all troops, without any omissions.

   However, no one knows what she is going to do.

  The command center fell silent, and Li Kerou, who had been listening for a long time, suddenly asked, "Do you know where my boss is?"

  Ling looked at her and smiled and said, "I don't know. Now is not the time to think about Qingchen. The most important thing is whether the 330,000 people in the parent association can escape this disaster."

  …

  …

  It's autumn.

  There was mist between the Hengduan Mountains in the southwest, dewdrops hung on the eyebrows of the members of the parent association who marched in the early morning, and everyone moved forward silently.

  The temperature on the high mountain is getting lower and lower, even close to zero at night. Everyone is wearing thin clothes. Only the core time traveler main force has eaten cold on Whale Island, and the others can only stay next to each other.

  No food.

   Hunger and cold.

  When the time walkers return, they will eat Hesai every day, wishing to eat six meals a day, just to let themselves grow a little fat, so that they can continue to starve in the other world.

  Xiao Qi told Time Travelers to distribute the food and medicine brought by the watch world, but at most they could only wrap the compressed biscuits with a safety film and bring a "one bite" amount.

   For the entire team of 330,000 people, it is a drop in the bucket.

  They seem to be forgotten in some corner of the world, no one cares about them. The long team walks along the ridge, they are like travelers in the desert, camel caravans on the sand dunes.

   However, there was a shortage of food, but weapons were available, and these members of the parent association did not lose their weapons along the way.

  The team is about to enter the southwest boundary.

  Luo Wanya stood on a ridge and looked, and found a temple in the distance: "How can there be a temple here? The tiles are clean and there are no weeds, which means there are people."

A member of the Yuli World Parents Association explained: "This should be the Great Compassion Temple. Earlier, when the Mechanicism was rampant, Buddhism was excluded and Taoism was suppressed, so that a large number of monks were forced to flee to the wilderness. Some became wilderness people, and some had firm beliefs. Continue to be monks. They don’t have a temple in the wilderness, so they migrate with the wilderness and help the wilderness to work along the way, but they don’t get money or ask for things. Even if they work a lot, they only need three meals a day.”

The members of the parents' association continued: "They also have medical skills. Once there was a plague in the wilderness, they cured the disease and saved people. After saving many people, the wilderness people built a temple for them in the mountains. Next to the temple is the field cultivated by the monks themselves. If there are people in the wilderness who can't survive, they can go to the temple to live for 30 days. They will have a group of people go to the wilderness every 30 days, and treat those who are sick."

  Luo Wanya watched silently. There are too many fake monks in this world, which instead cover up the goodwill of real ascetic monks.

  Xiao Qi muttered in a low voice: "Don't be some hidden master in this temple? What if there is a demigod hidden..."

Luo Wanya shook his head: "If there was an inheritance here, the people in the wilderness would not gather together and go to the fire pit. They are just ordinary monks. Let's go, go and persuade them, the people who chased us from the Western Continent will be behind us, If you pass by here, it might drag them down. Take them with you, and build a temple for them after the war is over."

  Xiaoqi and Luo Wanya climbed over the mountain and went to visit Dabei Temple. The monks in front of the temple were fertilizing the vegetable garden, with dozens of patches on their clothes.

  Luo Wanya put his hands together and said, "How many monks are there here?"

  An elderly monk put down the dung ladle: "137 people."

  Luo Wanya said: "Everyone, the flames of war are about to spread here, come with us."

  The monks looked at each other. They didn't seem to be very worried about the war. Instead, they saw the members of the parents' association sallow and emaciated from hunger. Immediately, a young monk limped and ran to the temple: "Master, master, there are disaster victims coming!"

   "Why is there such a young monk in the temple?" Xiao Qi asked curiously.

   Someone explained: "When a disabled baby is born in the wilderness, the cruel parents just discard it, and the kind-hearted parents will travel thousands of miles to the Dabei Temple to give the baby to the monks of the Dabei Temple to raise them."

  Xiao Qi was stunned, no wonder many monks in this temple looked a little strange, and some people were gesturing in sign language.

  These monks are indeed ordinary people, not practitioners, and each of these monks has disabilities.

  It turns out that in this chaotic world of fighting for power and profit, there are still people living quietly in this corner of the world.

  A monk welcomed them into the temple, and the monks sent baskets of vegetables, potatoes, and sweet potatoes in rattan baskets, as if they had been prepared in advance.

  Luo Wanya arranged: "Send it to the old and young, women and children, and the adult men will dig the roots to eat by themselves, and those who dare to **** them will be expelled directly."

  Xiao Qi took someone to deliver food, and the limping little monk followed him up and down.

  Luo Wanya looked at the abbot in front of him and said: "There will be enemies coming here soon, and they may want to ask you about our whereabouts. If you don't tell us, you may have to face torture to extract a confession."

  The abbot was also a deaf-mute person. A monk at the side translated Luo Wanya's words to him in sign language. The abbot thought for a while and responded in sign language: "Then we will tell them your whereabouts."

  Luo Wanya: "..."

   Isn't this the abbot that my boss pretended to be on the road? !

   But he thought about it, 330,000 teams crossing the border, this trace can't be hidden no matter what, even if the other party informs the West Continent, it doesn't matter.

   Luo Wanya led the team to leave. This Dabei Temple was just a small episode on the trek, but it made the members of the parent association feel more at ease.

  Just 8 hours after Luo Wanya led the team to leave, a floating airship of the puppet army landed at the gate of the temple.

  A puppet army officer jumped off the airship and asked loudly: "Did the parent meeting just pass by here?!"

  The abbot didn't speak.

  The puppet army officer asked sharply: "Are you deaf? I'm asking you something!"

  A monk on the side whispered: "The abbot is indeed deaf."

  Officer: "..."

  The abbot was using sign language, but the officer couldn't understand, so he looked at the monk beside him.

  The monk translated: "Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the country. You should not help the evildoers."

  It turned out that this group of monks knew what was going on in the Federation. The ascetic monks brought the news back to the temple and prepared food for the parent meeting in advance.

  The officer sneered: "A group of monks are still here to condemn me?"

  At this time, the abbot raised his middle finger.

  Young monk: "Grass..."

   "You don't need to translate this shit!" The officer laughed angrily: "What kind of wild monk is this? Kill them all!"

At this time, the abbot did not inform the puppet army of the whereabouts of the parents' meeting as he said to Luo Wanya before, but waved to the monks, and took the rolling pin in the kitchen and the **** in the field to the puppet army. call.

  The puppet army raised their guns.

  In an instant, a cloud of blood burst out from the officer's chest, and he fell backwards.

   Until then, the sound of sniper gunfire from a distance reached the temple.

   One shot after another, there were snipers ambushing in the mountains and fields, spanning nearly a kilometer, and precisely killing the puppet troops one by one.

  Ordinary troops usually have one sniper as standard, but there are at least dozens of snipers ambushing here.

  Just one round of shooting, all the puppet troops outside the airship died.

  The floating airship quickly lifted into the air, but outside the vegetable field of the temple, a group of members of the parents' association rushed out screaming, and lightning bolts knocked down the floating airship from a long distance.

   You know, among the 330,000 members of the parent association, 99% are practitioners, and a guerrilla team randomly pulled out starts at the B level per capita, and there is also an elite team specializing in Wanshen Leisi!

  The puppet army wants to hunt down this kind of team, but without the cover of a floating airship, it's really hard to say who will chase and kill who.

The lonely floating airship fell crookedly into the mountain. Luo Wanya got out from the nearby woods. He looked at the abbot: "The monks don't tell lies, you promised to tell them our whereabouts, why did you change your mind?" ? And you were planning to kill someone with the **** just now, isn’t that a violation of the precept?”

   Abbot sign language.

  The little monk translated at the side: "We are going to return to vulgarity today."

  Luo Wanya: "..."

   What a group of adaptable monks!

  Luo Wanya waved to the family behind him: "Take all the monks away, we can't leave them here to die."

  However, at this moment, Luo Wanya's satellite phone rang.

  Suddenly the news of Xiaosan's death came from afar. Luo Wanya stood in front of the temple with a satellite phone in his hand, not knowing what to say for a long time.

  The wind in the mountains whizzed past, making it extremely cold.

  There are birds chirping in the forest, like whimpering.

  After he was in a trance, he turned his head and said to Xiao Qi: "Little San is gone. Move on, we still have a lot to do."

   At this time, Qing Chen had disappeared for 24 hours, and no one knew where he was.

  …

  …

  It was very quiet in Black Spider's safe house.

  Qing Chen tightly held the black Eye of True Sight in his hands, as if he had died without making a sound.

There was only faint light in the room, and Yi was sitting on a box of supplies with his chin propped up. He watched curiously as the black spider opened a can and ate it with a spoon: "When was this safe house prepared? Why did you prepare a can?" Such a special safe house?"

  Black Spider replied: "I wanted to kill the Duke of Storms a long time ago, and I have been preparing since then, but then I prepared the means to escape, but I found that I couldn't kill him."

  One asked again: "Are you worried that you will die this time? Now the West Continent must be searching for us all over the city. Once we are found, everyone will surely die."

Black Spider shook his head: "I'm not afraid. I'm actually very afraid of death. Otherwise, I wouldn't have dragged my hands on the Duke of Storms. I didn't even dare to seek revenge on Marquis Wendy who violated my mother. But this time, I don't know why. , I’m really not too scared.”

   until when do you want to hide? The two of them didn't know what to do, at least they had to wait for Qing Chen to wake up.

  Yi said to himself: "I don't know what Qingchen is going through, which keeps him from waking up."
