Chapter 130: Fengdu Guest (XVI)
When Bian Cheng arrived at the human world, it was almost dawn.
Although the night had not yet completely faded, the eastern sky had begun to show a hint of paleness. In this half-lit light, Bian Cheng took a deep breath of the slightly cool air.
Apart from the hurried glance at the human world when he captured Lu Ren yesterday, the last time he breathed the human air so casually was fifty years ago in Xiangxi.
In order to ensure that the Ghost King Seal could not leave the underworld, he only sent one of his clones during his two visits to the human world. It was just an illusion and actually had no combat power. This was also the reason why Bian Cheng did not choose to engage in armed conflict with Lao Yang in Xiangxi fifty years ago.
But now it was different, with Lu Ren taking over his place and holding half of the Ghost King Seal in the Underworld, the cause and effect of the Underworld would not collapse for a while. He could also wander around the world without restraint.
There was a barrier outside the Kunlun Realm Bureau, and if the paper bus approached rashly, it would easily alert the people in the Realm Bureau. Just in case, Bian Cheng stopped his paper bus three blocks away from the Immigrant Household Registration Bureau.
It was still early for work and the sun had not yet risen, which was Bian Cheng's favorite time of the day, so he decided to take a walk to the Immigrant Household Registration Investigation Bureau.
Since Bian Cheng didn't know the way, he picked up a piece of pink GG paper on the side of the road and tore it into a silly little paper man. Then, Bian Cheng breathed a breath of Yin Qi towards the paper man and said softly, "Go."
Just like in reply to Bian Cheng's words, the paper figure floated up slowly, and then jumped on the ground and moved forward. Maybe because it was made of paper, it could jump very high every time, and from a distance it looked like a butterfly fluttering up and down.
The paper man was leading Bian Cheng towards the Immigrant Household Registration Investigation Bureau.
But the paper man didn't have such a high IQ. It didn't consider the road conditions and only guided the shortest distance. It slowly turned a corner and took a shortcut into an alley. On both sides were shops that hadn't opened yet. The tightly closed shutters looked cold and unfamiliar. The illegally built awnings covered most of the sky, leaving only a small gap, making the entire alley look narrow and cramped.
The path was so quiet that you could even hear the echo of Bian Cheng's footsteps on the ground.
Just as he passed a corner, Bian Cheng heard a conversation between two people.
One of them sounded like a teenager, and his voice sounded a little timid: "Yingzhao, are we sure we want to do this?"
Ying Zhao's voice sounded older, and his tone was colder, which showed that he was a dominant adult male. "What else?"
The young man said: "But doesn't this mean declaring war on Kunlun Jiesi?"
Ying Zhao seemed displeased that his orders were questioned. He lowered his voice and said, "Chang Cheng! Are you questioning the decision from above? Or do you think we should wait until Kunlun Realm is fully strengthened before launching an attack on Tianshang Realm?"
The boy, Nagamori, lowered his voice and said almost in a whisper, "But he is just a human after all."
Ying Zhao sneered when he heard this: "The human who blew up Mount Xumi?"
This sentence successfully stopped Chang Cheng from talking, because Ying Zhao's words successfully reminded him of the terrifying nature of the human being in the rumors.
Mount Xumi is the headquarters of the Shanjian City Realm Division. Not to mention the True Buddha Shakyamuni, the Asuras, Indra, and even the Eight Divisions, which one is a vegetarian? It is said that the human blew up Mount Xumi in front of so many people.
This human actually escaped unscathed.
The most terrifying thing is that the people from Shanjian City Boundary Office are still thanking him.
The Shanjian City Boundary Department, the Buzhou Mountain Boundary Department, the Jiuyou Boundary Department and the Kunlun Boundary Department have kept to themselves for many years. It is not because the people in these four boundary departments are kind. On the contrary, the people in these four boundary departments know that each other will be a tough nut to crack.
But now, teeth marks have appeared on this tough bone, which also means that the superficial peace maintained by the four divisions for a long time has actually begun to crack.
Bian Cheng stopped and listened to the conversation between the two with a cold face. He instantly understood the current situation in his mind: "The Buzhou Mountain Realm Division felt threatened, so they sent people to harm Lu Ren?" He raised his eyebrows, "Although I know that there is a price to pay for hiring people to do things, I didn't expect the price to come so quickly."
So, Bian Cheng sighed and said, "It's a loss. You know, in the past, if you wanted me to be your thug, you had to sacrifice at least a living human being." Although he said this, he still restrained his expression, then walked around the corner and stood in front of Ying Zhao and Chang Cheng.
Bian Cheng's breath-retaining technique had reached perfection, and he habitually restrained his breath. So it was not until he took the initiative to walk into the sight of the two people opposite that they noticed Bian Cheng's presence.
Ying Zhao and Chang Cheng obviously didn't expect that there would be someone here. For a moment, their expressions showed different levels of surprise, but Bian Cheng remained calm and even waved to the two people in front of him calmly: "Good morning, both of you."
Ying Zhao and Chang Cheng were easy to distinguish. Ying Sheng was very tall, estimated to be over 1.9 meters tall, with thin arms and legs that looked like he had two whips growing on his torso. Chang Cheng looked like a minor, only about 1.6 meters tall. Although the two men looked very different, they both wore black suits and ties, which should be the uniforms of the Buzhou Mountain Realm Division.
Ying Zhao and Chang Cheng recognized the face immediately: "It's Lu Ren!"
So the two of them rushed towards "Lu Ren" without knowing right or wrong. Ying Zhao formed seals with his hands and made a very complicated spell. The next moment, a thin golden rope emerged from the palms of the two people and struggled violently like a living worm.
Bian Cheng was slightly stunned when he saw this, then he said with a smile: "The Immortal Binding Rope, the Buzhou Mountain Realm Bureau is quite generous."
The Immortal Binding Rope is a rare item. It requires the tendons and bones of a god, which must be soaked in weak water for three thousand years, and then quenched in heavenly fire for three thousand years before it can be made into an Immortal Binding Rope. This rope is invulnerable to swords and guns, water and fire, and has an automatic positioning function. Anyone it targets will be tracked all the way to the ends of the earth.
Not to mention how demanding the production conditions are, the tendons and bones of a god are the foundation of a god, and can only be obtained when a god dies. Therefore, even the "honorable" heavenly realm has no more than three of these ropes in stock.
Who would have thought that they would actually use this rare thing to capture "Lu Ren". As Lu Ren's stand-in, Bian Cheng felt flattered for him: "It's thanks to him that I was able to see this."
However, now is not a good time to sigh, after all, the Immortal Binding Rope is getting closer and closer to Biancheng, and Ying Zhao and Chang Cheng are following closely behind with their eyes on it.
Bian Cheng was not in a hurry. He did not throw away the GG paper after tearing the villain. He slowly tore the remaining GG paper into pieces, then spread out his palms, facing Ying Zhao and Chang Cheng, and blew away the pieces of paper together.
The pink paper fluttered like petals, blurring Ying Zhao and Chang Cheng's eyes for a moment. After the two paused, they saw the scraps of paper that had fallen to the ground suddenly rise up like seeds that fell into the soil, turning into life-size paper figures. Then, one by one, the flat facial features of the paper figures became three-dimensional.
In an instant, the alley was filled with "Lu Ren", making the originally narrow road seem even more crowded.
The well-informed Ying Zhao narrowed his eyes: "Throwing beans to turn into soldiers? Ha." He knew that this human was no ordinary person. This was a move that only the gods and wizards would use in the past. It has been lost since the gods and wizards died.
Ying Zhao frowned and asked Bian Cheng sternly, "Tell me! What is your relationship with the Ten Witches? Or are you the Ten Witches?"
Bian Cheng didn't need to answer at all, because there were already more than a dozen identical people standing in the alley. But one of them still smiled kindly and said, "No, this move is called 'your paper man comes alive'."
In Ying Zhao's opinion, the "Lu Ren" in front of him obviously did not take him seriously and was even in the mood to make such a harmless joke.
The Immortal Binding Rope had already locked onto Bian Cheng's aura the moment it was sacrificed.
But despite this, every clone that Bian Cheng transformed into exuded the same aura as him, making it impossible for the Immortal Binding Rope to determine which one was the real one, and it could only stop in the air and stare blankly.
Ying Zhao warned Chang Cheng beside him, "His methods are very extreme, and he doesn't seem to be a good person. Although the higher-ups have given us the order to capture this human alive, remember, if he poses a threat to you, don't hold back!"
Chang Cheng nodded, then carefully distanced himself from Ying Zhao, and the two of them attacked the "Lu Ren" in front of them from two angles.
Chang Cheng punched the paper man closest to him. Chang Cheng's strength was extremely great, and he could even be ranked among the best in the Buzhou Mountain Realm Division. He could even kill a Qiongqi with one punch. At this moment, he punched the paper man in front of him, and saw that the paper man in front of him was broken up at once. The original human figure instantly scattered into a pile of petals. These scattered petals fell to the ground and instantly grew into human figures again, which were new paper men one after another.
Chang Cheng was shocked: "How could this happen?!"
However, Bian Cheng did not intend to leave him time to be stunned. He saw that the growing humanoids and the nearby humanoids all quickly punched Chang Cheng. Seeing this, Chang Cheng quickly adopted a defensive posture, but two fists could not beat four hands, and he still took two solid punches.
As the saying goes, a random punch can kill a master.
Chang Cheng was hit hard by two punches and flew to the rolling door on the side with a loud and crisp sound. A blood mark was left at the corner of his mouth, and then he shouted to Ying Zhao on the other side: "Ying Zhao, this thing will grow more and more the more you hit it!"
Ying Zhao heard this, pinched two fingers into a ring, and then put it to his mouth, blowing air out through the ring. Suddenly, a burst of fire was spit out from his mouth. At first, it was just a thin line of flame, and the further it went out, the bigger the fire spread. In an instant, the paper figures closest to Ying Zhao were set on fire.
Several paper figures started to struggle and set fire to several paper figures that were closer to them. In a short time, the raging fire spread in the alley and even set fire to the awnings that were illegally built by the shops next to them.
The paper man did not regenerate after being burned, only a wisp of green smoke remained, revealing a faint sweet fragrance.
Seeing that this move was effective, Ying Zhao breathed a sigh of relief and said to Chang Cheng, "Don't break him up, burn him with heavenly fire, and he won't be able to regenerate."
Seeing this, Chang Cheng quickly followed suit.
The two were so excited about the fire that they heard Bian Cheng's teasing voice coming from not far away: "If I were you, I wouldn't burn them."
The smoke left behind by the burning paper man was like a thin mist covering the alley. The faint floral scent became stronger and stronger, and finally it was so sweet that it made people feel itchy in their throats. In such a rich aroma, the two gradually felt their eyelids becoming heavier and their limbs becoming more and more physical.
Bian Cheng said slowly: "This paper man of mine is made of red spider lilies. The hypnotic effect is very strong, even gods and Buddhas are not immune to it."
Ying Zhao was struggling with himself: "What did he say? Red spider lily?" But that flower only grows on the Yellow Spring Road, and is only found in the Nine Nether Realm. It is the only flower in the world that can make gods and Buddhas fall asleep. Could it be that not only the Shanjian City Realm, but also the Nine Nether Realm has been conquered by this human? !
Before he passed out, the last remaining thought in Ying Zhao's mind was: "We must inform the Buzhou Mountain Division as soon as possible that this new human from the Kunlun Division is unfathomable and extremely dangerous!"
As expected, there were two sounds of human bodies falling to the ground behind them. The immortal rope that had lost control of the person also fell from the air and landed on the ground like an ordinary rope.
Bian Cheng didn't even look back, but calmly said to the remaining paper man at the scene: "Control the fire."
Then the people on the paper that had been more or less burned nodded and rushed towards the burning awning, using their bodies to put out the fire released by Ying Zhao, and turned into a wisp of light floral fragrance.
Except for some burnt awnings and the lying Ying Zhao and Chang Cheng, the scene no longer looked like it had ever experienced a major battle.
Bian Cheng bent over and searched for a long time, and finally found the little paper man he used to lead the way under a stool on the roadside that he had forgotten to take back. At this moment, the little paper man was hiding under the stool with his ears covered and shivering.
Bian Cheng nodded the little paper man's head and said, "It's solved. Why don't you lead the way quickly?"
The little paper man shivered and stuck his head out from under the chair, looked at the situation outside, and when he saw that it was really safe, he finally got out and fled towards the direction of the Foreign Household Registration Investigation Bureau like a flash.
Bian Cheng, who looked like he had just been through a battle, hummed a song and followed the steps of the little paper man. After taking two steps, he stepped back as if he remembered something and picked up the rope that had fallen on the ground. As he put the rope into his trouser pocket, he said, "It's polite to pick up the equipment dropped by wild monsters."
Then, Bian Cheng, holding the immortal rope, continued humming the song he had just sung halfway , and then walked leisurely towards the Immortal Household Registration Investigation Bureau.
