Chapter 231
The moving dragon carriage suddenly stopped.
Sa turned his head and looked in the direction from which he came, frowning slightly.
"Huh? What's wrong?" Ya Yin asked in unfamiliar Chinese.
"Grandpa..." Sa murmured, tilted his head, and was silent for a while, still shook his head and said, "No, it should be nothing."
"Really..." Ya Yin touched her chin and turned to look in the direction from which she came.
A little worried...
But even if she was worried, it seemed that she could not do anything.
After a long silence, Ya Yin still said: "Let's go on, just trust him, we also have things we need to do."
"Well," Sa nodded, turned around, loosened the reins, and drove the dragon carriage again, and continued to move forward.

Night fell again.
A whole day passed, and the people living in the sewers were forced to return to their shacks one by one.
Although there is no night in this city, they have to find a place to rest after a busy day. If they sleep on the street or in the store, it's okay if they are not discovered. If they are found to be wrong, they will be thrown out of the city by the city guards immediately.
Obviously, no one here except for a few people who plan to stay up all night, most people have no choice but to come back.
Fortunately, when they came back, they found that the strange monsters in the daytime had disappeared, so they retreated to their shacks with trepidation.
As a result, because some people came back early, they saw that the people watching the sheds in some areas were not there, and they immediately had evil thoughts and ran to other people's shacks to steal chickens and dogs.
More and more people came back later, and naturally they found out. In addition, there were people who were caught in the act. For a while, the whole sewer was in turmoil. Many people fought, and some even had their brains beaten out. The bodies were thrown directly into the sewer next to them, and flowed downstream along the water flow, and then were eaten by the rats that rushed out of the darkness.
The Black Dragon King yawned as he looked at the scene he had seen countless times.
It was so boring.
He had seen so many human disputes. In the final analysis, it was no different from monkeys fighting for peanuts.
"Ahem... Shit, uh, it hurts," the dark dragon tried to prop up half of his body, but he lost his balance and fell to the ground again.
"Ah... numb," the dark dragon stared at the two longans in a daze, with a look of despair on his face.
"Ah, yes, numb, I don't know who ate the food," the Black Dragon King walked up to Liu Ji, looked him up and down, and clicked his tongue unhappily, "Tsk, what the hell, I've never seen a dragon as ugly as you in my life, as black as a loach."
"Dragon?" Liu Ji blinked in confusion, and suddenly noticed that his field of vision seemed a bit too wide, and it really didn't look like human eyes.
Liu Ji subconsciously expanded his elemental vision. When he saw his complete body, he was dumbfounded.
"I am..." He looked at his claws in disbelief. He clearly felt that he was not connected to any form at all, but his body was...
"Don't be like this, I turned you into a sub-dragon," the Black Dragon King squatted in front of him and said, "Otherwise you can't stand the duplication of my life source. The origin of the world theoretically has infinite ductility. It is like a glass of clear water. Whatever you add to it, it will become a certain color. But, you are a person after all. Don't think you can bear any color."
"Is that so? Haha, then I am really... I have walked through the gates of hell," Liu Ji smiled, "it seems that my luck has not run out yet, at least you are willing to save my life."
"This is not the first time you have done this, is it?" The Black Dragon King looked at Liu Ji helplessly, "You really don't take your life seriously?"
"Ha, how could I not take my life seriously?" Liu Ji smiled, "I cherish my life more than anyone else, you know, what kind of price I paid for this life."
"But what you did is completely opposite to what you said," the Black Dragon King supported his chin, with a subtle look on his face.
"No, cherishing life does not mean living in disgrace," Liu Ji smiled, "You know what my enemy is."
"So I still have the same opinion as then," the Black Dragon King said, "You can't win."
"I also think we can't win, even back then, perhaps none of us really thought we could win," Liu Ji shrugged, "but, it is because we think we can't win that we can only gamble..."
"So you actually know the consequences of eating it?" The Black Dragon King frowned.
"How could I know? Is there anyone else in the world who has done this?" Liu Ji asked.
"This... is indeed impossible," Black Dragon King sighed, "Alas, I really don't know what to say."
"Hehe, so, can I ask a little bit?" Liu Ji said, "Although it may be suspected of taking advantage of others..."
"You want to ask why I help you?" Black Dragon King asked.
"Well," Liu Ji nodded slightly, "To be honest, when you came to help me, I thought I was hallucinating."
"Ha, you are right, generally speaking, I really don't care about you," Black Dragon King shrugged, "It's just that I don't want to see a very exciting play that I have seen before, so it ends badly in front of me..."
"Then, what kind of ending do you want to see?" Liu Ji asked with a smile.
"At least, die gloriously for me," said the Black Dragon King, standing up. "By the way, if one day you really reach a level beyond my expectations, then try to dig out the magic that summoned you. It contains your only chance of winning. Then, I'm going to wander around nearby. See you again if we're lucky."
The Black Dragon King said, his figure was in a trance, and then he disappeared in front of Liu Ji.
"Yeah, haha, this is really..." Liu Ji contacted the desert incarnation, and a gust of sand and dust rolled up, and he turned back into a human.
Looking at his hands, he smiled bitterly.
It seems that he is one step further away from humans.
But it's not a loss.
Feeling the strange power in his body, he complied with the impulse.
The dark lines flashed on his body, and then dyed the white sand and dust that made up his body into black.
"It's a pity that I can only get the body after all," Liu Ji looked at his body.
The strongest thing about these dragons is their abilities, which are not sure whether they are magic or other special abilities, but these abilities cannot be achieved by simply changing the race.
But, it is enough.
After all, these real dragons can be said to be the most mysterious and powerful life that Liu Ji knows, except for tyrants and gods.
No one knows where they come from, and no one knows where they are going.
No one knows how strong their abilities are, and no one knows how much they know.
No one knows what kind of amazing potential their bodies have.
Now, Liu Ji only feels that unprecedented power is surging in his body, and the forms he has mastered can be freely mobilized. Even if he connects five or six kinds at the same time, he still seems to have spare power, as if his entire life form is no longer at the same level as before.
"Ha... This is true," Liu Ji looked at the place where the Black Dragon King disappeared.
Coincidence? It appeared just when he needed this power.
The Black Dragon King certainly didn't expect that he could get this power directly.
But it was obviously not accidental that he was here.
Liu Ji was even sure that there should be other dragons in this city now.
These guys always appear when a major event that will affect the future of the entire world is about to break out, and they are no exception in the world over there.
They always go to witness the occurrence of that event, and sometimes they will intervene to do something, but what they do is basically unhelpful, and their motives may even be unclear.
It is for this reason that in the world over there, the heroes will try to contact them and try to get their help.
Unfortunately, they have never taken action for the heroes.
Until the world was destroyed, they just watched silently.
So, Liu Ji really didn't lie. The moment he felt that he helped himself, Liu Ji really thought he had hallucinations.
"Just want to see a good show, it's really a high-handed statement," Liu Ji raised his eyes and looked at the terrified crowd around him.
The magic of the Black Dragon King had dissipated at some point, and his sudden appearance once again frightened the people in the cellar, but they did not dare to leave the area, otherwise they would be torn to pieces by the rats in the dark.
So, they could only look at Liu Ji tremblingly and shivering.
At this moment, Liu Ji suddenly felt that it was not just the dragons who were high above.
In the final analysis, it was just the power of choice.
They had a choice, so it didn't matter.
The brave had no choice, so they had to risk everything.
The poor here had even less choice, so they could only live in this dark underground.
In the final analysis, the world itself was not fair. For the people here, perhaps being able to live a stable life for decades or hundreds of years without worrying about money was already the greatest happiness.
Change the world?
Oh, come on.
They might have tried their best just to survive.
Of course, having said that, Liu Ji still didn't understand why they had to stay in this broken place and fight to the death.
At the same time when Liu Ji's figure appeared, he noticed a different sight.
It was a male elf, holding a longbow in one hand and a sharp arrow in the other, staring at him, ready for battle.
Liu Ji looked at him and frowned slightly.
For some reason, when he saw his battle posture, the first thing that came to Liu Ji's mind was Guo Guo.
Combined with the intelligence he had received before...
"Daidel?" Liu Ji tried to ask.
The man's eyebrows trembled slightly, but he did not answer.
"Ah, it's you," Liu Ji's brain was working fast, thinking and saying, "Well, great, I finally found you, I thought you were dead..."
Daidel frowned, looked Liu Ji up and down, and asked, "Do I know you?"
"Probably not," Liu Ji said, "but your apprentice knows me, she suspects you were kidnapped by the Secret Sanctuary, so she asked me to find you."
"My apprentice..." Daidel frowned, thought for a moment, and asked, "What's your name?"
"Liu Ji," Liu Ji answered truthfully.
"It's you..." Daidel was stunned for a moment, turned his head and looked at the onlookers nearby who didn't know the truth, and said in a deep voice, "Come with me, this place is not suitable for talking..."
After saying that, he turned around and walked directly to the depths of the underground pipes, and the onlookers who didn't know the truth screamed in surprise.
But obviously, the mice that frightened them were as if they had seen a ghost when they saw Deidle, and no one dared to come forward at all, and they all disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Liu Ji grinned, flashed, and appeared directly beside Deidle.
"That's right. Shouting from a distance in the sewer is nothing," Liu Ji said with a smile.
"Have you had supper?" Deidre asked.
"To tell you the truth, I haven't eaten anything all day long," Liu Ji said, "Are you planning to treat us?"
"That's good. I know a self-service restaurant is pretty good," Deidre said. "It's especially suitable for people like you who have been hungry all day."
"That's good. Don't tell me, I feel like I can eat a cow now," Liu Ji said.

A few minutes later.
In a private room of a high-end hotel.
"Oh... this place is really..." Liu Ji looked at the decoration of the private room. He didn't know what the specific name of this kind of decoration was in this world, but on earth, it was probably the most exaggerated European style decoration. Bar.
To be honest, it has a bit of a nouveau riche vibe, which is a bit low-key as a restaurant decoration.
But when it comes to eating, the most important thing is the taste, so the decoration should be earthy.
"So, what did you order?" Deidel casually placed the order paper on the small magic circle nearby.
As the magic circle's brilliant light flashed slightly, the order paper also disappeared without a trace.
"A cow," Liu Ji said.
"What a cow," Deidre's mouth twitched, "If you can't finish it, you'll be priced by the gram."
"Just kidding, it's just a bowl of beef noodles," Liu Ji said.
"You eat beef noodles at this place?" Deidel couldn't control his expression for a while, "You... forget it, just be happy."
"Yeah, after all, this is the first time I've seen a buffet where you can order beef noodles," Liu Ji said, "so I made a note to order a beef noodle dish without noodles."
"Can you just order beef?" Deidel was speechless. "Who did my apprentice find to find me?"
"Should you keep these words in your heart?" Liu Ji spread his hands.
