Desperate Night.

Chapter 284 Path 284

Sitting at the end of the bed, Yu Hong let out a breath.

"I still have to go back. It's too inconvenient here without money."

He tossed the keys, walked to the terrace and looked down.

Facing the harbor below, ships were passing back and forth, honking loud whistles from time to time.

The afternoon sunset was looming with a hint of redness peeking through the thick clouds.

A group of seagulls flew around the harbor, as if performing some collective ritual.

"That's great." Yu Hong took a deep breath and greedily sniffed the aroma of various dinners being cooked in the air.
I really want to stay in this place forever.
but.
Suppressing the regret in his heart, he put the key in his pocket, turned around, opened the door, and left the room.

Leave the hotel quickly.

He started to run slowly, like those sports enthusiasts exercising, and ran towards the outside of the port.

About twenty minutes later.

He ran along the road and came to a completely deserted beach with no one around.

The beach is rocky, steep and dangerous, and the sea water hits the rocks violently one after another, splashing water.

Yu Hong jumped up and landed lightly on a large black reef, calling out to the black ship in his heart.

Soon, black fog slowly emerged in front of him, and soon, a dilapidated black ship appeared in front of him.

After jumping on the boat, Yu Hong looked back at the rocky beach, his eyes revealing a hint of reluctance to go back.

The black ship slowly carried him, completely submerged in the black fog, and returned in the direction from which it came.

More than ten minutes later.

The black fog parted ahead, revealing the wooden bridge of the camp.

The water of the Heihe River is still surging under the wooden bridge.

The air temperature has already returned to more than minus 100 degrees.

Bang.

Yu Hong jumped off the boat and strode towards the front of the camp.

Coming to the front, he checked the Ultimate Gate. The gate was protected by three walls, with only one side showing a faint blue glow.

From time to time, unknown blue light objects would rush out of the door, and then be surrounded by large groups of black disasters outside, confronting the blue light objects.

"How can I make money quickly there?" Yu Hong thought for a moment, "It's better to do it legally."

After a while, he returned to the cave to check the communicator, and found that there was still no contact, so he simply put on his suit, left the camp, and headed towards the nearest town.

Soon.

In White Rock Town.

Yu Hong walked along the white and snowy street.

Some of the houses on the left and right sides collapsed, and some were buried. It was quiet and empty.

Soon, Yu Hong stopped and found his target.

Swish.

He appeared in front of the store in the blink of an eye, and his internal energy was activated, causing a large amount of snow powder on the ground around the store to explode.

A large amount of snow powder was blown to both sides, revealing a large deep pit in its place.

The bottom of the pit is the entrance to this store.

'Golden'

This is the signature dish of this restaurant.

Yu Hong forced the door open, bent down and walked in.

The counter inside had signs of being smashed, but most of the gold jewelry was still there.

Yu Hong stepped forward and randomly selected a few gold bracelets and gold rings that were easy to wear, removed the labels and checked whether there were any marks.

He didn't have any of these. He then pocketed the gold and left the store.

'It's enough as a start-up capital. Other legal income is easy for me.'

With the gold ornaments, he quickly called the black ship, changed his clothes, and returned to the world of Huangsong Island.

He randomly found a gold recycling shop on the street and sold his gold bracelets and rings at a low price, and then he had more than 50,000 yuan in cash.

After returning to the hotel, Yu Hong paid the bill. It was time for dinner, so he changed into a black shirt and jeans and went downstairs together.

There were four people eating.

The old man and the girl, Yu Hong and another middle-aged woman with a haggard face.

In the small hall, there were three dishes and a soup on a simple trestle table.

Stir-fried meat with green peppers, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, boiled fish fillet, kelp, tofu and scallop soup.

"Come on, come on, don't be polite. I prepared the portions for six people, so eat as much as you can!" the old man greeted warmly.

Yu Hong looked at the four bowls of dishes on the table, and stood up to get more rice.

After everyone had served themselves some food and started to eat, the old man began to babble on about the gossip and local news he had heard while walking outside today.

As he spoke, he looked at the middle-aged woman.

"Sister, how is your son doing? Can he come out?"

"It's not clear yet. They said they are still going through the process. Let me wait a minute." The woman lowered her head and said sadly.

"I have already apologized to them, paid compensation, and knelt down in front of them, but..." "Well, speaking of which, just before I came back, I heard about a case in the south of the city that was very similar to yours. I heard from the neighbors that it seemed like a group of young people agreed to go to the countryside to play, but there were three of them when they went, and only one came back."

"My son doesn't even dare to touch a chicken at home, how could he possibly kill someone!?" The woman covered her face and cried softly.

"There have been several cases like this recently, all of which are ridiculous." The old man sighed. "Some people say that some unclean things are causing trouble. I don't believe it, old man."

Then he went on and on about several other cases, complaining that the police were trying to smooth things over when they couldn't solve the cases, but there were many things that the locals couldn't get over. Everyone knew what was going on, but they just didn't want to say it out loud.

Yu Hong listened quietly at the side without saying a word. From the old man's words, he felt that something might have infiltrated this place and started.

After the meal, he praised the old man with some satisfaction. He hadn't eaten such a normal meal for a long time. It made him feel that everything he ate was like delicacies from land and sea, extremely delicious.

After dinner, he went out for a walk and soon found an illegal Internet cafe on the side. He went in, charged his money, and turned on the computer.

The old computer machine made a humming sound and the fan worked hard to dissipate the heat.

After a while, a huge logo flashed by.

Next is the familiar operating system interface.

"It's pretty much the same as the computers I used before." He was somewhat glad that he didn't have to get used to it again.

He skillfully opened the webpage and typed in the three words "Tianshi Mansion".

Soon, rows of items were clearly listed.

He quickly found the official website of Tianshi Mansion and clicked on it.

Suddenly the screen flashed, and a photo of the Taoist palace gate under the setting sun appeared in front of him as the background image.

On the main gate, which is mainly in gold and red, there is a huge Tai Chi symbol.

Further up, blue watermarks are used to mark the words "Yasong Taoist Federation", "Xiantian Nine Gates Federation", "Tianshi Mansion Global United Headquarters", etc.

"It's very formal." Yu Hong continued to click on the next page.

When you enter the website, you will find that it has a structure similar to that of general institutional websites, with a series of drawer-style options. When you click on an option at random, a mind-map-like link structure diagram will pop up.

Soon, he found the specific content of the Nine Gates of the Innate.

'The Nine Innate Gates are based on the hundreds of Taoist sects, big and small, and traced back to their origins to form nine major inheritance schools. The nine gates represent the continuous inheritance of a lineage from ancient times to the present.'

'Members of the Nine Gates: Shangyuan Tianshi Mansion on Yunchong Mountain, Xiayuan Tianshi Mansion, Jinxiao Temple, Yunshen Temple, Mowen Palace, Dayunluo Temple, Zihe Palace, Qingxia Palace, and Taishang Ningxu Palace.'

Yu Hong memorized these nine names, then opened a new web page and began searching for the grudge.

But almost all I found were original texts of ancient books or myths and legends such as vernacular novels, and there was not a single modern one.

He thought about it and changed it to black disaster.

But still can't find it.

Then change it to black fog.

This time it came out.
There are tens of thousands of search results, many of which are related to games and novels.

Yu Hong patiently clicked one by one.

Finally, after more than an hour, he stopped the mouse and his eyes fell on the screen.

'In April 1942, Master Buyu of Mo Wen Palace cooperated with the Northern Military Region to carry out a special operation and successfully sealed three high-risk black fog cave entrances.'

This is a mixed recollection in a biography.

Yu Hong continued his search.

Soon, I found a similar text in a travel book.

'More than 40 years ago, although the Qiheng Mountain was beautiful, it was also dangerous because of the Black Mist Cave, and those who entered could not find the direction. Later, the Heavenly Master of Shangyuan Heavenly Master Mansion came to perform a ritual, and miraculously, after the ritual was completed, the Black Mist Cave disappeared. Since then, this place has become a long-lasting tourist attraction.'

Not only that, he also continued to discover the existence of the Black Mist Cave in some travel biographies.

The entrance of the cave was filled with black fog. This was the common description used by almost everyone.

"Sure enough. The black disaster may have started to invade this place a long time ago, but the nine innate gates of this world blocked it everywhere, forcibly delaying and suppressing the black disaster until now."

Yu Hong found out that it is now 2012, which is very close to the time on Earth at the beginning, both being more than years old in the Gregorian calendar.

There are records about the Black Mist Cave not only in the Yasun region, but also in other countries.

He sat in front of the computer all day, constantly searching for web records in various languages.

There are no walls here, so you can link to foreign websites at will.

So the translation machine also started to run at full power, using online dictionaries, pronunciations, glyphs, articles, etc. to quickly input.

By a little after eleven o'clock in the evening, Yu Hong's translation machine had mastered the pronunciation of more than fourteen local languages.

Except for a few languages ​​with different word orders, most languages ​​can be translated simultaneously.

Yu Hong also found more than eighty official records of the Black Mist Cave.

In addition to the Nine Innate Sects, there are two major sects of Buddhism: the Vajra Sect and the Shura Sect. Both of them have also shown their traces in the sealed Black Mist Cave.

Yu Hong thought of the high-risk black disasters he saw on the edge of the light spot. There were so densely packed that he didn't know how many thousands of them there were. Then he looked at the black fog caves that were constantly being sealed here.

"If the Black Mist Cave is the light spot, then this place can last forever without being destroyed by the Black Disaster. It must be too powerful!"

Yu Hong was a little excited.

This was the first force he had actually encountered that could confront the source of the disaster head-on and ensure self-protection.

The Taiyuan Orthodox Sect, the Zhengyuan Sect, and the forces with the background of his practice were all very powerful, but in the face of the source disaster,
Either the whole family will be wiped out, or his own world will be destroyed as well. This is recorded in the instruction manual certified by Heiyin himself.

At this moment, Yu Hong was the first one to encounter a powerful force that could confront the Black Disaster head-on.
