Xingtetsu: Why is the captain on the train?

It is even more impossible to say that Tingyun deliberately lied to the passengers on the train.

Even if the smooth-talking 'imperial merchant' wanted to lie, his lies would be a mixture of truth and lies. In Xianzhou, where immortal species are everywhere, even a child might not be able to tell such a clumsy lie.

After all, even if they are children, they are born and raised in Xianzhou. They must have some intuitive concepts and reliable guesses about how the Six Departments system works.

Look at Tingyun again.

The representative of the merchant group, with Yukong as his back, was entrusted with an important task by the captain of the Tianbo Division, but in the short time they were together, some mistakes that should not have happened occurred repeatedly...

The few speculations just now really made the captain sigh.

That's it? That's it?

What kind of big-tailed wolf are you pretending to be?

It’s confirmed that there’s something wrong with Tingyun.

Chapter 87: Taboos of the Immortal Boat People

After a brief moment, the medium-sized star raft broke through a layer of 'space' barrier and drove out of the illusory Jade Realm Gate.

The whirring particle engine drew a graceful arc in the air, announcing its arrival to the entire Star Harbor.

In the temporary command camp at Return Star Harbor, a brown-haired girl who was twirling a mahjong tile between her fingers looked up in astonishment at the starship whizzing across the sky, and raised her hand to press on her forehead.

At the girl's feet, a strange creature that looked like a lion doll also raised its head, staring with its round black eyes at the Star Raft as it passed through the camp and disappeared behind the Star Raft manufacturing line.

"Sir Qingque, let's..." A Cloud Cavalry soldier wearing armor with intricate patterns and holding a crescent-shaped sword slowly walked up to the brown-haired girl and asked in a low voice.

"I can't dispatch the Cloud Cavalry, so just follow the plan. Although the appearance of these 'surprise troops' is a bit high-profile, with them attracting attention, our plan can be hidden in the dark and not easily discovered by the suspects." Qingque gently tossed the mahjong tiles in his hand, "I have to go find them. Everything should go according to the plan. If we find any trace of Kafka, we will send a signal directly."

"Yes." The flag officer of the Cloud Riders nodded slightly, and watched the girl playing with mahjong tiles walk briskly with the Engineering and Manufacturing Division's [Di Ting] to the direction where the Star Raft had gone before.

"My lord, this is really strange." The deputy stepped forward and spoke to the flag officer, "Why did the Grand Astrologer send such a fortune teller to take charge of the overall situation?"

"People who gossip about others usually don't have a good ending." The flag officer turned his head and glanced at his deputy with a look of neither sadness nor joy. "Pass the order down, the plan will begin, and everyone in the encirclement network should keep their eyes open."

"Yes." The deputy nodded and turned to pass on the order.

The flag officer looked at Qingque again, and finally looked away.

The fortune teller...

How could an ordinary fortune teller have such ability to be favored by the Lord Taibu and be entrusted with such an important task at this time?

The flag officer's position also allowed him to more or less touch the upper echelons of power in the entire [Luofu], and he had heard a little about Qingque. The Grand Fortune Teller always liked to throw some trivial and troublesome tasks to a fortune teller who lingered at the Diyuan Qiongyu card table for a long time as a lesson. He had heard of this kind of interesting story before.

When I saw him today, although his attitude towards work was negative and irritating, his work arrangement and progress were orderly, link by link, without any confusion.

This is enough to show the ability of this green bird.

Remember...the [Six Imperials] political council meeting will be held in a few years.

Taibu has always had ideas about the position of General Yunqi, and even the soldiers of Yunqi know about it.

Thinking about the important task entrusted to Qingque today, and looking at the figure walking away, the flag officer couldn't help but have some absurd thoughts in his mind.

Today I call her Lady Qingque, but who knows, in a short time, I may have to call her Lady Taibu.

With a self-deprecating laugh, the flag officer withdrew his gaze and stopped thinking about it.

---

"Why are you heading straight for the Jade Realm Gate?" The captain slowly stepped off the Star Raft and turned his gaze to Tingyun. "Shouldn't we enter the port quietly without firing a shot?"

"According to the Taibusi's arrangement, we will go straight through the Jade Realm Gate and enter the Return Star Port." Tingyun shook his head helplessly, "I will naturally act directly according to the Taibusi's arrangement."

"Deliberately attracting some attention?" If the captain had not made several previous attempts, Lao Yang would not have thought so much about it. But just now on the Star Ship, the captain and himself were sure that there was something wrong with this fox man. Speaking up at this moment could be regarded as a test.

"Perhaps, the row that the old lady Taibu placed must have a deep meaning." Tingyun listened to the footsteps approaching and responded in a low voice, but quietly shrank behind the people on the train, "Next, it depends on the methods of the distinguished guests."

As soon as Tingyun finished speaking, he saw several evil soldiers with bodies as emaciated as dead branches running up the stairs and rushing towards the people on the train.

What greeted them was...

The torrent of virtual energy that spurted out from the muzzle of the Bloody Hand Saint's gun, carrying with it a rich destiny.

If ordinary demonic soldiers have strong vitality and are difficult to kill, then after being hit by the bullets shot by the captain, they become almost impossible to kill.

only.

Maybe it changed from animals to plants.

The wildly growing tree trunks, under the guidance of the imaginary energy of the same destiny, gradually merged and turned into a giant tree with strange branches. The roots continued to lengthen, eventually leaving a space of three meters high for pedestrians to pass under the stairs. The intertwined trunks rose to a height of seven meters before stopping.

Ginkgo leaves, with a slight plant fragrance, fall down and scatter all over the ground.

For a moment, the scene seemed somewhat beautiful. If one could ignore the fact that this tree was grown from five demonic Yin-body soldiers, then one could indeed feel the beauty.

"Well, Mr. Captain, you should try to take action as little as possible in the future. Or, you can take action, but try not to cause such a situation." Tingyun hid behind Sanyue and reminded him in a low voice, "Although not everyone on the Immortal Boat is hostile to the power of [Longevity Plague Ancestor], they can also accept true [Abundance] practitioners, but you are like this..."

"So?" The captain tilted his head.

"It's really a taboo to do this on the Immortal Boat." The fox glanced at the giant tree above the stairs with fear, "This kind of scene will attract direct judgment from the Ten Kings Division."

"Is it so exaggerated?" It was the first time I saw such a scene. Sanyue remembered that it was in front of the central elevator of the space station [Black Tower]. One shot turned a [Legion] trampler into a landscape tree. I vaguely remember that the tree has now become a popular attraction in the space station...

Although I did find it a bit scary the first time I watched it, after getting along with the captain, I just felt it was strange, but I didn’t find it psychologically unacceptable.

"For the people of the Immortal Boat, this is probably a fear engraved in their genes." Tingyun pursed his lips. "On the Immortal Boat, everyone changes color when talking about the [Devil Yin Body]. How different is what the captain is doing now from the [Devil Yin Body]?"

"Okay." The captain accepted Tingyun's suggestion. No matter what position she was standing on when she said this, as long as the time was right or he had no choice, he would not tie his own hands and give up his power.

As for now.

The captain's right hand loosened and clenched, the Bloody Hand Saint disappeared, and with it came a scarlet sword surrounded by flames.

[Simulation: Heavenly Fire Victory]

Tingyun was stunned for a moment, but quickly calmed down, not letting anyone notice the abnormality in her expression.

"That's all, where should we go now?"

The captain looked at Tingyun, carried Tianhuo Shengcai on his shoulders, and smiled slightly.

How about I play with you more?

Chapter 88: Gift

Consciousness is worn away, falling into the devil's way, and yin and yang are deviated.

This is called the devil's yin body.

It is a long-lasting disease that only people in the fairy boat can get.

Of course, in theory, throughout the universe, the "abundant people" who are hated by both humans and dogs are more or less in a state similar to that of falling into the devil's evil spirit.

"Life is not like life, and death is not like death. For the living, people who have fallen into the devil's body are a disaster, and for those who have fallen into the devil's body, I'm afraid it's not easy." The lazy girl slowly answered the captain's doubts, and followed the cheerful tiger and lion beasts through the stacked star raft production line. "But I can't say, after all, I haven't fallen into the devil's body."

"Who knows? There might be some lunatics who are willing to fall into the evil spirit. It's hard to say."

"What do you mean by disaster for the living?" The captain's eyes followed the fortune teller who was leading the way.

"Those who have fallen into the devil's shadow can be said to have lost their self-control and turned into beasts without wisdom or consciousness. It is the instinct of those who have fallen into the devil's shadow to plunder the blessings of [abundance] and [life]. " Qingque shrugged, speaking with a kind of laziness and indifference. "But I don't understand these. If you ask me, the answer I give you is just what I have seen in other books. As for the truth, I am afraid that only the Dan Ding Division or the madman of [Secret of the King of Medicine] can give you the answer."

"What is the secret teachings of the King of Medicine?" Yuexia noticed a title mentioned by the fortune teller and asked curiously.

"They are a bunch of lunatics who don't believe in and even oppose [Emperor Bow Siming]. They support [Longevity Plague Ancestor] and hope to control the Immortal Boat and make it continue on the path of [Abundance]. They are lunatics who intend to gain eternal life." Qingque said, sighing helplessly, "It's enough. Even beings like [Star God] can't live forever. The so-called [Immortal] Dragonborn will also be reborn. Why can't these guys just lie down and relax?"

The captain was amused, "You are quite open-minded."

"What's the problem if I don't let it go?" Qingque turned his head and glanced at the captain with a little surprise. Qingque knew how unorthodox his own ideas and thoughts were, and he had been lectured by others more than once or twice.

But this is the first time that someone has described me as "open-minded".

"Pursuing things that are beyond my reach will only fill my limited life with endless pain." Qingque stretched and yawned, "So, I'll touch them for as long as I can."

The smell of salted fish blew against the wind onto everyone's faces, causing them to subconsciously ignore the words that Qingque said before he made his declaration.

Everyone on the train had a weird expression on their face. Even Tingyun's mouth twitched, and he didn't know what expression to make. Only the captain smiled happily.

"Excuse me, is Miss Qingque a destiny walker?" The captain looked at Qingque's back and asked his question curiously.

"Yes." Qingque nodded and looked at the captain, "What's wrong?"

Normally, if a stranger asked this question, Qingque would definitely just laugh it off and move on from the topic. However, the person in front of him was someone who agreed with his ideas, and it was rare that Qingque was interested, so he gave a straightforward answer.

"Cooperation? Intelligence? Or immortality?"

As soon as the captain asked the question, everyone became interested. He put forward three guesses, which made the five people who were not involved in the topic start to think about what the captain based his guess on.

Among them, Tingyun thought deeply about this issue.

Their coordination and intelligence are all normal, so why did the captain suddenly mention the [Immortality] that Qingque just used as an example?

"I think my philosophy is closer to 'immortality', but unfortunately I am not a vidyadhara and am excluded. The situation of the current Dragon Lord is delicate, and my original [immortal] self has fallen long ago. It is difficult for me to delve into the [immortal] path, so I can only settle for the next best thing and step into the intellectual path." Qingque shrugged helplessly, and in his heart he immediately regarded the captain as a confidant.

After all, someone who can tell what kind of destiny he or she will embark on from his or her attitude towards things is essentially someone who can understand his or her own thoughts.

"What about you, Captain? Which destiny walker are you?"

"Emissary." The captain smiled, "Emissary [Abundance]."

Qingque raised his eyebrows slightly, took a look at the captain's expression, recalled the previous exchange, and finally his eyes fell on the Skyfire Holy Judge on the captain's shoulder, "You don't look like a believer of abundance."

"It's just that I was directly protected by [Pharmacist]." The captain smiled, "Since I am using His power, I am naturally His messenger."

Qingque nodded thoughtfully, stroking the mahjong tiles in his hand with his thumb.

Directly blessed, in other words, he did not believe in [Abundance], but the actions of this captain were recognized by [Longevity, Plague and Disaster Ancestor], and he was granted the blessing...

"It's really incredible..." the girl sighed softly.

If we were to ask which force in this universe knows the most about [abundance], it would definitely be the Xianzhou Alliance.

Although [Pharmacist] accepts blessings from any life and any force, to a certain extent, this equal treatment of all things is the true indifference.

If you ask for immortality, it can be granted.

But if you want to obtain protection, it can be said to be very difficult.

"Woof!" The little tiger-lion beast Di Ting suddenly barked, interrupting everyone's thoughts.

"It seems like we have discovered something." Qingque held the mahjong tiles and walked quickly to the place where Di Ting stopped.

Everyone quickly gathered around and looked at the item in front of Di Ting.

"This is..." Sanyue looked at the item in the corner of the port platform and frowned slightly, "Lipstick?"

"There's a note underneath." Xing frowned slightly.

"[Do you like it? This is the latest model launched by the company. I'm giving it to Xing. A girl should have some cosmetics to be like a girl.]" Qingque picked up the note and read the words on it word by word. His eyes slowly turned to the Xinghejing. "It looks like it was left by Kafka."

As she spoke, she handed the note along with the beautiful-looking lipstick to the Star Core Spirit.

"What is this?" The Star Core Spirit frowned as he looked at the lipstick and note he had taken.

"It's a deliberate clue." The captain shrugged. "It seems that she is not afraid of us catching her at all. Xing, what do you think?"

"Either she thinks she can run..." Xing put the note and lipstick into her pocket, "Or, she doesn't want to run at all."

"It's just as I thought." The captain nodded. "She deliberately lured the train to the Immortal Boat. She probably knows something about the Immortal Boat. Either she has it in her head, or she's prepared to be caught."

"Are you prepared to be caught?" Qingque frowned.

"Taibusi's arrangement ensures that we can catch her, right?" The captain narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Qingque.

"Yes, with the personal arrangements made by the old lady Taibu, there is absolutely no way Kafka will get away." Qingque also nodded.

Although she was just touching him, she still respected his abilities.

"Then here comes the problem. Now there is still a blade missing..."

"It's our turn to catch Kafka." The captain shrugged. "It doesn't mean that after we catch her, Kafka won't be able to escape, right?"

Chapter 89: Mysterious Woman

"Kafka seems to have anticipated our actions." Walter pushed his glasses and his words brought the atmosphere to a low point.

"[Slave of Fate]." The captain twisted his neck, "The leader of the [Star Core Hunters] who claims to be able to foresee the future."

The captain's words made everyone look at the captain.
