Chapter 505 Entering the Zoo

The elder dog looked like he was scared to death. Is this the legendary dumbfounded dog?

Seeing Curly Teddy's reaction in the video through the screen, Zhang Yuanqing almost couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

He used the "Great Detective's Pipe" in the Baihuwei warehouse to profile Zhang Zizhen before, and understood that the dead ghost's father was a gentle, middle-class, and serious person.

He doesn't have much charisma, and is far less interesting than the crouching dragons and phoenix chicks he knows.

However, this kind of character is easy to imitate, so Zhang Yuanqing opened his mouth with a warm smile and said in a hoarse voice:

"Long time no see, old friend. Are you surprised to see me?"

He said this with some caution to see how Elder Dog would respond.

On the other side of the screen, Elder Dog was stunned for a long time, then he tentatively approached and put his head in front of the screen, his black button-like eyes reflecting fluorescent blue light.

He stared deeply at his old friend on the screen, "You are not Zhang Tianshi, who are you!"

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Zhang Yuanqing felt that Elder Dog's voice suddenly became vicissitudes of life.

Elder Dog's voice was old and deep, and he said:

"Tianshi Zhang has returned to the spiritual realm. I personally confirmed it. Who are you and why are you pretending to be him and calling me."

Zhang Yuanqing put away his smile and said seriously:

"Old friend, I am Zhang Tianshi. I did not return to the spiritual realm. I had no choice but to fake my death. I have been hiding abroad for these years and only recently returned to my homeland."

Elder Dog sneered: "What nonsense!"

He suddenly bared his teeth and bared his snow-white fangs, showing an extremely angry attitude: "Who are you? What is your purpose? Don't make fun of my old friend!"

Sure enough, Elder Dog and Zhang Zi are really friends. It’s true. He has read my information and knows that my father is Zhang Zizhen, so he has long known that I am the son of an old friend. No wonder he treats me very well. He can tolerate even rubbing the dog’s head. He thought I was the one who conquered him by bowing his head.

Zhang Yuanqing had already expected it, but he was still startled when he saw Elder Dog's reaction. In his impression, Elder Dog was gentle and casual, a very interesting dog, no, a very interesting elder.

I have never seen him so angry.

There must be a story between Elder Dog and my dad back then! He thought to himself and sighed:

"I know you don't believe it. I'm sorry that I kept it from you for so long. I want to make an appointment with you. I'm on the top floor of Baiyin Building in Ruzong City."

Before the other party finished speaking, Elder Dog had already raised his paw, pressed the hangup button, and said calmly:

"I'm not interested."

Zhang Yuanqing was not in a hurry at all, with a slight smile on his lips: "After all these years, do you have complete control over the zoo I gave you?"

The elder dog's paws suddenly froze, and his eyes suddenly became profound.

Dominant figures are hard to deceive. Fortunately, I have all the information in my hands. Are you afraid that I can’t fool you? Zhang Yuanqing's expression was gentle and his voice was neither fast nor slow:

"You know my real name. The real name of a spiritual traveler can only be revealed to the people closest to me."

After a pause, he said slowly: "Zhang Zizhen!"

The next second, Zhang Yuanqing saw the elder dog's pupils trembling, and the whole person, no, the whole dog was stunned.

Zhang Yuanqing was not prepared to give him a chance to calm down and continued to throw out a series of bombshells:

"Speaking of which, the first person to return to the spiritual realm was Ling Tuo. After the Chu family was wiped out, Xiaoyao was disbanded. I was not allowed to fake my death to escape. You know that."

"You..." Elder Dog's expression completely changed, he was surprised and suspicious. He stared at Zhang Zizhen on the screen, suppressed his eagerness, and said tentatively:

"You said you have been hiding abroad, so why did you suddenly return to your homeland?"

Zhang Yuanqing answered fluently and said with a gentle smile:

"The prophecy of the Bright Compass is about to come true, and the whole world will undergo great changes. I have been waiting for this opportunity, so it will come.

"Old friend, I'm waiting for you at Baiyin Building. We have something secret to discuss."

After saying that, regardless of Elder Gou's reaction, he hung up the phone.

Elder Dog may not believe that Zhang Zizhen is the person on the other end of the phone, but he will definitely come to the rice dumpling market.

Just for an answer.

Nothing can arouse the desire for exploration more than the mysterious resurrection of a deceased old friend. Just like when he learned that Brother Bing was missing, he was so anxious that he wanted to go to Jiangnan Province to search for him personally.

On the rooftop of Baiyin Building, the night wind howled. Zhang Yuanqing quickly shut down his phone, pulled out his phone card, took out the prepared note from his pocket, and pressed it with a cement stone.

After doing all this, he walked to the rooftop and looked into the distance.

The street lights are like shining pearls connected in a string, and the lights in the windows of high-rise buildings are like stars shining in the night sky.

"I knew I should have put on the Windbreaker gloves" Zhang Yuanqing murmured, raising his hand to hold his face. With the light rippling like water waves, he disguised himself as an ordinary-looking passerby, pushed open the rooftop door, and disappeared into the dark corridor. inside.

The night wind blew and the note trembled. The scrawled words on it read:

"I'm being targeted. Please come to the 'Baicao Garden to Sanwei Bookstore' to get together."

zoo.

Zhang Zizhen, Lingtuo, and Elder Guangming Compass Prophecy Dog stared at the phone screen with solemn expressions, without responding for a long time.

About three minutes later, he jumped off the table, came outside the house, walked along the wide road of the zoo, and after twists and turns, arrived at the Lion Park.

Elder Dog entered the hut where the Demon Eye was kept, and said to the thick camphor tree with vines hanging down:

"Go to the core area!"

The bead-like vines swayed gently, as if in response.

"Will the tree die if its roots are pulled out from the soil? It will not die. Don't think of yourself as fragile. You are just lazy." Elder Dog stared at the camphor tree and said displeasedly:

"If you don't agree, I will leave the job of sealing the magic eye to the old banyan tree next door to you. He has been thinking about your wife for a long time."

"Bang bang bang!"

The concrete floor cracked, and the camphor tree quickly pulled out its roots from the ground. The tangled roots brought out the soil and covered almost the entire room.

At the same time, the hanging vines rose up, tearing open the roof, and the cement ceiling fell down with a crash.

This sturdy but not too tall camphor tree walked toward the core area of ​​the zoo with heavy steps, looking a little impatient.

"What happened?" The magic eye in the tree trunk turned its head and looked at the curly teddy squatting in the ruins.

His face became increasingly depressed.

Elder Dog ignored him, raised his head, looked at the deep sky, and whispered:

"I'm going out for a trip. Anyone who breaks into the zoo during this time is an enemy."

The night was dark and there was no sound except for the sound of the camphor trees moving their roots.

Elder Dog repeated again.

An impatient response finally came from the void, "I got it."

Elder Dog has long been accustomed to the indifference of the zoo. Just like an honest man's wife still misses her ex-boyfriend who has been dead for many years, the honest man has no choice but to do anything.

He turned into a green light, jumped between plants, and quickly left the zoo.

This green light used the green plants on the street as a springboard. After a few flashes, it escaped hundreds of meters and quickly disappeared.

Outside the zoo, under the velvet yellow light.

Zhang Yuanqing, who was wearing a silver mask, exited the night tour, appeared, took out his mobile phone, and dialed the number:

"Elder Dog is gone."

After hanging up the phone, a few minutes later, a red damask woven with red threads flew across the night sky and landed next to him.

The red thread exploded with a bang, turning into a beautiful woman in a red dress that looked like fire.

"You know the rules of the zoo, right?" Zhang Yuanqing looked at the Killing Palace Master, "The Demon Eye is imprisoned in the Lion Garden. There is a white lion there, which only appears at night. It is the guard guarding the Demon Eye. Palace Master, You deal with it."

The Master of the Killing Palace nodded slightly, smiled and said:

"Are you really going to release your magic eyes? If this is revealed, there will be no place for you in the Five Elements Alliance."

"I've seen the stars. If I don't save the devil's eye, I will be in disaster. But if I save the devil's eye, I will be blessed in the future." Zhang Yuanqing took the opportunity to show his misfortune to his sister from the aristocratic family and said:

"You know that I am entangled in karma, and I may encounter a threshold that I cannot overcome at some point, so I must firmly grasp every blessing."

Well, 996 blessing does not count

"This is your fate," the Master of the Killing Palace said calmly: "We don't have much time, let's go in."

The red skirt inspired her and turned into a red silk ribbon again, swaying with the wind and rushing into the distant zoo.

"Snapped!"

Zhang Yuanqing snapped his fingers and dispersed into dreamlike starlight.

The zoo is located in the suburbs. There are no high-rise buildings around it. The nearest residential area is three kilometers away. It is deserted at night.

"Crack."

After entering the zoo, the Master of the Killing Palace landed gracefully.

There are lush plants in the garden, and the main roads and paths are criss-crossed like a spider web. The light of the street lights is very weak, as if it is covered with a layer of black gauze.

"There are many tourists in this garden during the day. It is Songhai's Internet celebrity garden, but at night, all the staff will leave here." This is not the first time Zhang Yuanqing has come, and he leads the way in a familiar manner.

Rule one: Don’t say the word “animal.”

So Zhang Yuanqing deliberately avoided sensitive words.

The Master of the Killing Palace walked side by side with him, his skirt trailing to the ground, and said: "This should also be a rule. At night, it will revive."

Crazy Pirates obviously also knew this and used "it" to refer to it.

Zhang Yuanqing nodded, suddenly approached the palace master, and whispered:

"Do you know that this garden is a legacy of my father, and Elder Dog and my father are old friends."

The Master of Zhisha Palace was surprised and said: "Really?"

"When I first came here, Qi Ling recognized me as him." Zhang Yuanqing said.

As for this trip, he was not afraid of being spotted by the weapon spirit, because he mobilized the power of the Taiyin origin fragments to cover up the aura of the soul.

The Master of the Killing Palace tilted his head and thought for a moment, then shook his head slightly:

"I'm not sure. I have no impression of your dad's props. Who would show props to a child for no reason?"

Zhang Yuanqing nodded in agreement: "Indeed!"

As he spoke, he communicated with Yi Chuanmei in his mind: "Is what she said true or false?"

Yi Chuanmei's voice echoed in her heart: "Master, I cannot peek into the master's emotional changes."

Waste, what use do you have!

The two walked quickly and met a rabbit and a staff member in blue uniform.

The fluffy little rabbit followed them perseveringly, but saw that the two tourists ignored him and ran helplessly into the green belt.

The staff in blue uniforms stopped following Zhang Yuanqing after he politely refused to help.

Soon, under the leadership of Zhang Yuanqing, the two came to the zoo.

The sight in front of him shocked Zhang Yuanqing. The roof of the small house where the Demon Eye was originally kept had been lifted off. The path outside the house was covered with mud and messy traces of animals that could not be seen.

Most importantly, the camphor tree that sealed the magic eye disappeared.

"He was transferred." The Master of the Killing Palace squatted on the side of the road and poked the mud with his finger. "It's very fresh. He was transferred not long ago. If we follow the strange footprints and look for it, we should be able to find the magic eye."

Because the marshal was away and he had to go out again, Elder Dog transferred the magic eye? Tsk, you underestimated him. Zhang Yuanqing's heart sank, and he felt inexplicably irritable.

No matter how powerful the star officer is, he cannot calculate every detail. He made a summary silently, suppressed his irritability, and said:

"I just have to bite the bullet and go ahead."

He suddenly turned his head and looked at the Lion Garden, only to see that the big rocks in the garden were empty, and the white lion that was always there before was gone.

Did it move along with the magic eye? He muttered to himself.

After groping along the chaotic "footprints" for more than ten minutes, they stopped at a fork in the road.

There are two signs at the intersection. The one pointing to the left says "Employee Rest Room" and the one pointing to the right says "No Proceeding."

Under the font of "No forwarding", there is also a line of small words:

"When you see this sign, it means it is late at night. Please do not enter the core area of ​​the zoo late at night. When you see the sign, please return immediately, or go to the employee lounge and ask for help from the staff."

Zhang Yuanqing looked at the child bride's sister with a stiff expression, "What are the rules in the core area of ​​Dongyuanzi?"

The Master of the Killing Palace looked back calmly: "Do you think I will know?"

"Fuck, what should I do?"

"Don't say bad words. Domination-level rules-based props are like an S-level dungeon experience. It's quite interesting."

"It's so funny, people will die." Zhang Yuanqing sighed and said, "Which way to go? Let me see your face."

The Master of the Killing Palace raised his hand to hold down the silver mask: "It depends on you."

Zhang Yuanqing immediately entered the night tour, took off his mask, took out the ghost mirror, faced the "no forwarding" path, and opened his starry eyes.

The ghost mirror reflected his face, with blood between his brows and eyes.

Hiss, it will be life-threatening. Zhang Yuanqing turned to the direction of the "employee lounge" and took a closer look.

Still shrouded in blood.

No matter which way you go, it's a dead end.
