Final Chapter
No, mortal, what can mortals do to me?
The Heavenly Dog stared at Tan Xiao with its bloodshot eyes widened, showing a hint of fear. It let out a long howl, and blood-red moon energy emanated from its body like an explosion, covering the sky and the earth, obscuring everything in front of it.
Looking closely, it turned out to be a huge mouth, which seemed to want to swallow up this world as well as bury it with him!
In the blood-stained scene, no one could see where the real body of Tengu was, controlling this crazy act of devouring everything.
Except Tan Xiao.
He now realized that the reason he couldn't recognize people's faces was mostly because he had the wood and stone spirit in his blood. However, it was also this half of his blood that made him more perceptive, not affected by illusions, and able to get to the bottom of the truth.
Tan Xiao's eyes are bright——
The Mirage Pearl was brighter than ever before. It broke away from Tan Xiao's hand and moved forward.
Wherever the light mirage bead went, blood and energy separated, tearing the big mouth into thousands of pieces, pointing directly at the real body of the Tengu!
After the blood was released, Tengu was far from being as he appeared to be, and instead seemed to be ready to escape.
“Ah!!” Tiangou turned his head and gathered all his strength to block it. He emitted a dazzling cold light, illuminating Qiyun Ridge as if it were daytime. It was so gloomy that it even had the sign of turning to yang. “The moon is blazing, continue my true spirit!”
But a tiny mirage pearl carries the will of human wizards and is a heritage of tens of millions of years. Its brilliance seems misty and insignificant.
However, the cold light dissipated, and only this faint light was extremely eye-catching in the dark night, embedded in the center of Tiangou's eyebrows!
The Tengu couldn't make a sound, but just stared at the human world blankly, as if he saw at a glance the insignificant power that had struggled for tens of millions of years. Was it them? In his unwilling body and soul, an irresistible external force was bursting out.
With a loud bang, the divine body that Tengu had pieced together turned into a puff of blood mist, and only something was left falling -
It was swept away by the five-colored divine light in mid-air.
At this moment in the city of Nanchu, countless people in the high-rise buildings were looking at Qiyuling in the distance, shocked by the light that was shining in that distant place, which was definitely not a performance. They didn't know what was happening, so they could only raise their mobile phones to record it along with their own exclamations.
The distant city area or the audience at the foot of the mountain did not notice that after the astonishing movement, the moon that had been obscured appeared again.
And on the cliff that none of them could see.
Tan Xiao caught Mu Zhenzhu who was returning and said, "Mission accomplished."
When Mu Fei saw Tan Xiao shooting the moon and killing the immortal under the moonlight, his expression was so calm that she almost wondered if Tan Xiao had untied the spell.
Fortunately, the next moment, Kong Xuan was already hugging Tan Xiao tightly, rubbing his cheek against his.
Tan Xiao also hugged Kong Xuan with his backhand and smiled brightly as he leaned against him.
“Huh, huh.” Tan Chunying finally climbed up, holding a branch she had picked up on the road as a climbing stick. Seeing this, she rushed up and hugged Tan Xiao, pushing Kong Xuan away, “You scared me to death!!”
Kong Xuan squeezed back and hugged Tan Xiao tightly without thinking...
Tan Chunying was knocked flying and staggered a few steps, "???"
Tan Xiao raised his eyes to look at Kong Xuan, who then realized it belatedly. After thinking for a few seconds, he made up his mind to put Tan Xiao into Tan Chunying's arms. He had just experienced that and almost lost Tan Xiao, so he was in no mood to hide anything, "Auntie, hurry up."
"..." Tan Chunying was speechless for a moment, it was a bit outrageous, she slapped Tan Xiao on the back of the hand, and said belatedly, "You are in a premature love relationship with the Lord God, right?!"
"It hurts!" Tan Xiao just screamed, and was hugged by Tan Chunying again. The mother and son looked at each other and smiled.
Before Tan Chunying made any comments on this matter, she had already seen the power that Tan Xiao had unleashed under the impetus of premature love, including Kong Xuan's demeanor. She really couldn't say anything more serious!
As for other things, such as race and gender, there is even less to say. Who can she say that?
"Hey, case closed! Everyone is happy!" Mu Fei breathed a sigh of relief and clapped his hands twice. Thinking of the scene just now, he almost didn't know how to summarize it. He just uttered, "If I were in charge, I would give you 800 points!"
Fang Zhu was still thinking about what happened just now, "Spiritual Master, does the Heavenly Dog still have any remaining soul? Can you release it? I want to ask him if there is any of my grandmother left."
Mu Fei also said: "That's right, we must make this guy suffer from the pain of strong wind scraping his bones and blazing fire burning his heart!"
"Ah..." Tan Xiao's expression was a little embarrassed. He raised his hand and released the things he had previously brushed off. It was not a remnant soul, but only a piece of bone.
Everyone stared at each other.
Tan Xiao stammered, "I wanted to leave a little bit of closure, but you know, I don't have enough experience and I didn't control the strength well... Well, next time, next time for sure!"
Everyone: “…”
Mu Fei slapped his forehead and said, "Next time? You are waiting to be Hou Yi, right? If someone shoots ten suns, do you want to shoot ten Tiangou stars?"
Fang Zhu was stunned for a moment, and also said: "It's really a good thing for him to die. But it's okay, we can interrogate... No, there is still a fight to the death after the case is closed." In fact, according to the dream of grandma, there must be some ashes left, it just depends on how many grams.
The huotou that Tengu created in the end were all in this area, so they must know something about the inside story. Moreover, the Tengu were gone. They were originally created by Tengu and forcibly increased in size, so they were not powerful enough at this time. The corgi that bit Tan Chunying was immediately captured by Kong Xuan.
The Corgi collapsed to the ground, looked up at them furtively, and whimpered.
“You still dare to bark?” Tan Chunying gritted her teeth and was about to raise her hand to attack, but she saw an orange figure jumping out. Elder Aquarius sat on the Corgi’s head and twisted it, scratching it with his claws: “Meow meow meow meow meow meow!!”
It's all your fault, elder. It's because of me that Tan Xiao and Kong Xuan's relationship was ruined!
While the Corgi was being attacked by Elder Aquarius's dirty words, his eyes rolled back and he kept sticking out his tongue.
Everyone turned their backs and started discussing the matter amidst the sound of Elder Baoping cursing in the background.
"Qiyunling has been completely overturned, and the mountain has been split apart. Sigh, this time the public relations plan may have to face the international community." Mu Fei scratched his head, "Brother Tan Xiao, where is Nielong?"
Tan Xiao showed her the red dragon that was still tied to her body. The red dragon was actually awake, but just didn't dare to speak.
Now it was no longer as arrogant as before. After all, it had witnessed Tan Xiao's earth-shattering bullet and lowered its head in vain. If Tan Chunying had brought out its hatred, then Tan Xiao had beaten it so hard that it dared not utter a word.
"Actually, I may have to trouble you to seal it somewhere." Mu Fei said that the 404 Office currently does not have enough power.
"Now there are more and more tourists in Qiyunling. It may not be a good idea to seal it outside. There are no people everywhere." Tan Xiao said thoughtfully, "Or, maybe we should just keep it with people?"
It is said that in ancient times, most portraits of Chu witches were decorated with snakes, which were used as earrings and belts. Just like Tan Chunying also made up the tradition of Chu witches' snake-shaped tattoos, it actually has a basis. It has the purpose of deterrence and also symbolizes the ability to control snakes.
Hearing this, Chilong stared at Tan Xiao with his eye sockets without eyeballs in fear, afraid that he would have to be a belt forever? Did he really treat it as a snake?
When the male vipers heard that the red dragon seemed to have a chance to follow the emperor, they were so jealous that they dared to compete with the dragon clan. They said sourly: "Its bloodline is just noble. Your Majesty can find a replacement..."
“…”
Pingdi, what about yourself?
After going through all the hardships, Teacher Xiong is still the same Teacher Xiong.
Tan Xiao raised his hand. The wooden bow he made could not withstand the blow just now and turned into ashes. "I thought of making a bow-shaped slingshot, and I can use this as the bowstring."
Use the magic weapon as a container and a suppressant, just hold it in your hand, and you won't be afraid of anyone letting it out.
The crossbow was born from the bow, and the bow was born from the projectile. The bow-shaped slingshot was shaped like a longbow and could also use projectiles, which was perfect for Tan Xiao's situation.
"Of course you can," Kong Xuan said with a sigh, "but that kind of bow is quite large, be careful not to get caught and questioned by the police station."
Everyone couldn't help laughing, and then they all went to see Tan Chunying. Well, he was caught on the spot by the management staff for scribbling in the scenic area... Just imagine, if one day Tan Xiao was walking around the city with a bow and arrow to catch monsters, he would also be caught by the police.
After a few seconds, everyone burst into laughter, which drifted far into the night sky.
At this moment, the full moon is as bright as a jade, the light is pleasant, dogs are barking, and there are laughter all around.
Tan Xiao felt his hand being held by Kong Xuan. He tilted his head and saw Kong Xuan holding up his phone. On the screen was a memo recording the text he had just typed down. "I'll write this paragraph."
——There is a half-demon in South Chu, who was born from the interaction between Taiyin Bow and Chu Witch. He cannot recognize human faces, has a lovely appearance, and a friendly personality. He is well versed in mathematics, physics, and chemistry, and can kill evil and control fairies. When he is seen, the world will be at peace.
…
More than half a year later.
Nanchu showed its quality during the college entrance examination. For the sake of the candidates, construction sites stopped working in the middle of the night and no one honked their horns when passing by the examination room.
A taxi passed by the Nanchu Folk Museum and was stopped by a lady, "Where are you going?"
The female passenger said, "Nanchu Municipal Middle School."
"Okay," the driver said familiarly, "Do you work at the museum?"
The number of visitors to the Nanchu Folk Museum has increased significantly in the past two years, but the female passenger's accent did not sound like that of a tourist and she looked very gentle , so he asked if she was working.
"No, I'm here to take a tour." The female passenger smiled.
"Locals still use it? Is there something new?" The driver also laughed and chatted with passengers as usual, "Why don't we visit the middle school next stop?"
"I'm supporting my husband's work. My husband is exhibiting here... uh, just explaining it." The female passenger said, "Now I'm going to school because my son is taking the college entrance examination. The examination room is over there. I'm going to pick him up."
"Wow!" The driver was stunned. "You are so careless. When my child was taking an exam, I waited outside all day. Now the exam is almost over, and you just finished visiting the museum and came over by yourself?"
The female passenger said proudly: "My son has good grades and got extra points in the college entrance examination. I feel relieved ."
"Oh, that's great. I wish your son will do well!" The driver congratulated and couldn't help but turn up the volume a little when he heard the voice on the radio channel.
"…Welcome back to the Voice of Southern Chu. I'm Xiaoxue. Let's continue what we were talking about before. Ajian, have you heard that recently, fellow villagers in Qiyunling are suspected of catching suspicious people disguised as tourists again?"
"I heard about it, but this time it seems to be a misunderstanding, just a lost tourist, but our citizens are still very vigilant!"
The driver listened and couldn't help tapping the steering wheel. "Oh, I thought there were intelligence agents again. Do you think China can really hide things? We secretly made such a powerful weapon of mass destruction and said it was just a normal military exercise. It's okay for outsiders, but how can we not remember the big commotion during the Mid-Autumn Festival last year!"
The female passenger just smiled and didn't respond.
But the driver himself could also talk about it: "I checked online. There are a lot of speculations abroad. Some say it's not an ordinary weapon and can't be detected. Some think it's a hoax, and some think it's a new energy weapon... Anyway, the deep part of Qiyunling is fenced off and tourists are not allowed to enter. I think there must be a new type of weapon, but I don't know why they are being tested in Qiyunling."
"It may not be a weapon then." The female passenger said with a smile, "After all, Qiyunling is holding a party during the Mid-Autumn Festival. If there is really an experiment, it is not a good place to choose. What if something unexpected happens?"
"Well, what you said does make sense, but... there's no way to explain this thing." The driver muttered, "And speaking of the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala, I really regret it. At that time, the Southern Chu Voice Channel gave away tickets, and I won the lottery, but I thought there might be nothing good to see, so I didn't go and gave the ticket to my friend. What happened!"
The driver cried out, "You know, it's a big hit on the Internet, the special effects are so realistic! It looks so beautiful when we see it on TV, let alone seeing it in person. My friend still likes it and says it's the scene."
The female passenger consoled him: "You can go too, we are accepting tourists now."
"There are so many tourists, it's hard for us locals to get a turn. And it's said that the special effects are not as big as those on festival days, after all, it's a large-scale party. Alas, but I'd better go and have fun when I have time, it's the rafting season." The driver sighed, "and my friend said that there will be a special show that night, which can only be seen in person, and it won't be broadcast on TV. People will secretly take pictures with their mobile phones. It's really exciting. That ticket is really..."
We had already arrived at the Municipal Middle School. The driver turned around to show the QR code. Only then did he take a closer look at the female passenger's face. He felt that she looked familiar. "Hey?"
But the female passenger had already scanned the code to pay and got off the bus. "Thank you."
Tan Chunying got out of the car. There were large groups of parents at the school gate, and some media were also waiting there.
She looked around and saw a few familiar figures in the crowd, including Mu Fei, A Jin, Fang Zhu and others. "Xiao Mu, why are you here too?"
"Teacher Tan, we are here to wait for Tan Xiao and Kong Xuan. It's a good day off today." Mu Fei waved her hand, "I was just saying I didn't see you."
"Yes, I'll go see his father. He seems to have some spiritual power." Tan Chunying looked at the time. There were still some time left before the end of the exam...
"Hey, someone's coming out!"
I don't know who shouted, and everyone looked up. The media even ran over with their cameras to interview the first college entrance examination candidate who came out of the examination room.
The entrance was still quite a distance away from the teaching building. The man walked out slowly. Tan Chunying looked closely and thought, isn’t this her good son?
As soon as Tan Xiao came out of the examination room, he was surrounded by people, "Classmate, you are the first one to come out of the examination room, which school are you from?
"May I ask how you feel now?"
"You handed in your paper early. Do you think the questions this year are easy?"
"Classmate, you are very good-looking. Which school did you graduate from?"
"No, I was just wondering why the second one hasn't come out yet. I'm waiting for him." Tan Xiao answered in a question that seemed to be mixed with strange content. He clearly sensed Kong Xuan and told him to come out first.
Everyone was confused. The second one? How come you said it as if you knew who would be the second one to leave the examination room?
Generally speaking, the first one to come out attracts more attention. After Tan Xiao said this, everyone couldn't help but look to see if the second one had come out.
The second student to leave the examination room actually showed up, and handed in his paper a little earlier. His appearance was quite eye-catching. As soon as he came out, he stood next to the first student to leave the examination room, with his hands behind his back, and it seemed that he had done very well in the exam.
This forced everyone to ask further questions. Even though the third and fourth students had appeared one after another, they still locked on this person.
"Classmate, do you know each other? Did you agree to hand in the paper early? What are you thinking about?"
Kong Xuan glanced at the logos of these media indifferently. He was obviously a high school student, but his glance seemed to look down on everyone, which made the adults present a little intimidated. No one dared to say anything for a while, which was quite weird.
"My name is Kong Xuan, and I'm a student at Nanchu No. 1 Middle School." Kong Xuan said slowly.
Tan Xiao was originally smiling. He had already noticed the distinctive figures of Tan Chunying, Mu Fei, and A Jin, and was about to say hello, but when he heard Kong Xuan's words, he suddenly felt something was wrong .
He was about to run away, but Kong Xuan grabbed him and said proudly, "I want to announce something!"
As soon as Kong Xuan became arrogant, Tan Xiao became nervous.
Sure enough, after Kong Xuan finished speaking, he pinched Tan Xiao's chin and wanted to kiss him. Tan Xiao dodged in panic, but was still held down on the head and pecked on the face several times.
There was loud laughter all around, and a few seconds later, some young people even whistled, "Hahahahahaha!"
Tan Xiao wanted to cover his face. Damn it! All the teachers in the school must be watching the live broadcast now! No, maybe Teacher Ji was in the crowd and he just didn't recognize her!
Kong Xuan, who was so close, had a look of pride and satisfaction in his eyes, which made Tan Xiao speechless and amused.
Some people around me were quietly saying, "This is so funny, you must be kidding," and "You classmates have such a good relationship." Looking at Tan Chunying, she just smiled helplessly and actually raised her hand to applaud.
Ah Jin was inexplicably excited. He took out a few petals from somewhere and scattered them. People who didn't know him would think he had prepared it in advance, "Sprinkle the flowers! Sprinkle the flowers!"
Someone in the crowd shouted, "One more!"
There was continuous laughter.
Before Kong Xuan could move, Tan Xiao pulled Kong Xuan, kissed him and ran away. Kong Xuan chased after him and lifted him up by the waist.
The midsummer wind blew petals across Tan Xiao's raised cheeks. The scorching sun shone through the lush forest, casting golden spots, making the young people's smiles bright and dazzling. This is the taste of the world.
