Chapter 619 The Desire of the Heart

"what's the situation?"

Luo Jun, who was working carefully just now, was completely dumbfounded. He thought that with Ziye holding him back, the old Taoist priest would not be able to take care of this side. Even if he really failed to block the attack and attacked him, he had the ability to save his life with his extreme pants. At worst, the dice and his body could help to resist a little...

But no one expected that the old Taoist priest would seize the opportunity and head straight for Jiuyou!
The golden thunder was so powerful that it smashed Jiuyou's remains directly into the ground. In front of Luo Jun, only a bottomless deep hole glowing red was left!
Where is my Jiuyou? Where is the huge Jiuyou that I put here?!
Just as Luo Jun was surprised, Midnight landed in front of him and grabbed his hand: "This guy is very powerful. It's a bit difficult for me to deal with him in my current state. Let's go first!"

Luo Jun looked up and saw that the old Taoist priest was shining with golden light and surrounded by thunder, just like a god from heaven. He grabbed a bolt of lightning with one hand, wrapped in golden light and threw it over!
Seeing this, Ziye waved his hand and summoned a black shadow to shoot out and confront the lightning head-on. Originally, he was at a disadvantage, but Zhang Daozhi suddenly coughed and his strength was not connected. He was counterattacked by the black shadow and had to dodge in panic.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ziye pulled Luo Jun into the shadows and escaped into the distance.

But Zhang Daozhi was not willing to let them go. He raised his hand and summoned the Nine Heavens Thunder, which bombarded the direction where Ziye was escaping. The lightning instantly covered the entire Death Valley!

Wow, carpet bombing!

Under Ziye's leadership, Luo Jun dodged left and right in the shadows and finally escaped from the Death Valley. But a golden light flashed in the sky, and Zhang Daozhi had already caught up with him. The sky also surged with dark clouds, and lightning struck from the sky!

But suddenly, Luo Jun felt the pressure above his head relieved a lot, as if Zhang Daozhi had given up the pursuit?
Luo Jun was wondering when he suddenly felt an indescribable terrifying aura coming from behind him!
"This is……"

Luo Jun was horrified, and Ziye beside him covered his mouth: "An Jing... This is... the power above Yuhua!"

Above the stage of metamorphosis? Could it be that Jiuyou really woke up?
Luo Jun secretly looked back and saw flashing lightning and golden light in the center of the Valley of Death, which was enough to kill the evil spirits in seconds. The attacks were pouring down like crazy, and the sound of thunder was more frequent than the gunfire on the battlefield!

But suddenly, the dense thunder stopped abruptly, and the shining golden light dissipated along with an explosive breath.

What's the situation?
Luo Jun was just wondering when he heard Ziye beside him ask in confusion: "Eh? Why are you coming towards us?"

"what?!"

Before Luo Jun could react, he suddenly felt an extremely dangerous aura locking onto him. Looking back, he saw a strangely shaped silhouette chasing after him!
That is……

With his keen insight, Luo Jun saw clearly the appearance of the pursuer.

It was huge, skinny, and only had bones all over its body. Its entire body was translucent, and it looked like jade...

It was indeed Jiuyou! But why did he target me?

Luo Jun had no time to react. The monster caught up with him in the blink of an eye and opened its big mouth towards him!
Ziye hurriedly fought back, but the monster suddenly flashed past Ziye and went straight for Luo Jun!

In desperation, Luo Jun took out the Wanjun Hammer and smashed it head-on in a final resistance.

Secret dice!

Stop him!
"Ding! This event is inevitable and cannot be determined!"

What? While Luo Jun was surprised, the hammer had already hit Jiuyou, but it went straight through without any force, and the monster opened its mouth and pounced directly on Luo Jun, and it was like a phantom, drilling directly into Luo Jun's body!

At the same time, Luo Jun felt a huge amount of chaotic, evil, and strong information pouring into his brain. Even with his mental strength, he couldn't withstand it and fainted on the spot...

This……

Sensing Luo Jun's condition, Ziye frowned slightly, gritted his teeth, and his body became light, and he also drilled into Luo Jun's body!
…………

Where...is this place?
Luo Jun woke up slowly and found himself in a small but warm room...

There was a single bed against the wall, a desk, and a simple wooden bookshelf fixed on the wall above the desk. In addition to textbooks, there were comics that Luo Jun liked the most. There were two maps on the wall, one was a map of Aurora, and the other was a map of the world. There was also a big movie poster next to it, which was his favorite science fiction movie. In the cabinet next to the desk, there were several Transformers toys. They were of quaint design and dull colors. They looked quite old, but the joints and parts on them were not broken. It was obvious that the owner played with them very carefully. In the corner of the floor, there was also a football and a basketball...

No matter how you look at it, this is a little boy's room.

"Whose room is this?" Luo Jun knocked his head in confusion: "Who am I?"

At this time, the door of the room opened, and a woman in her thirties came in with a plate of fruit, smiling: "Xiaojun, come, eat some fruit!"

Luo Jun looked at the familiar and kind woman in front of him with some doubt: "You are... my mother?"

"Silly boy, what nonsense are you talking about?" The woman smiled and placed the fruit on his desk. She raised her hand and patted the back of his head: "I'm not your mother, how can I be your second aunt?"

Luo Jun opened a textbook and found the words "Luo Jun" written in crooked, childish handwriting on the first page.

This is... my name?
Luo Jun picked up the mirror on the table and looked at himself. A childish face of about eight or nine years old appeared in the mirror.

By the way, my name is Luo Jun, and I’m a third-grade student at Beiermalu Primary School in Ningdong City!
Memories flooded into Luo Jun's mind. Looking at his mother in front of him, he smiled from the bottom of his heart: "Mom, what are we having for dinner?"

"Grandpa came home tonight, and Mom made your favorite sweet and sour pork ribs."

At this time, the sound of a door opening was heard outside the house.

"Your dad is back." Mom walked out of the room to greet him. Luo Jun followed her out and saw a tall man changing his shoes at the door with a bottle of white wine and a plastic bag.

"Buying some wine?" Mom asked.

"My dad is coming today. Buy a bottle of good wine and have a couple of drinks with him. There are also some snacks to go with the wine." Dad smiled and waved the things in his hand.

"Is this the smoked sauce from Lao Yang's family? How dare you go to his house? Have you forgotten the gas explosion three years ago?" Mom scolded.

"Oh, it's bad enough that they have to deal with such a thing. They are neighbors and they don't even take care of their business." Dad said with a smile, then looked at Luo Jun: "Right, Xiaojun?"

Luo Jun nodded and said, "Dad is right!" But then he frowned again. The gas explosion that his father had just mentioned seemed to have evoked some memories deep in his subconscious, but he couldn't remember them at all.

"Xiaojun, how about trying it?"

Just as Luo Jun was thinking, a piece of steaming hot pork ribs was stuffed into his mouth. The aroma of the meat wrapped in the sweet and sour sauce instantly diluted those messy thoughts, making Luo Jun's little cheeks chew instinctively.

"Hmm, it smells so good and tastes so good!" Luo Jun widened his eyes and nodded hurriedly.

"You little brat, you're eating before the food is even served!" Dad came over and rubbed Luo Jun's head.

Luo Jun dodged with a smile, but he felt an indescribable happiness in his heart... It was strange, this was obviously a very common scene, why was I so moved that I wanted to cry?
Just as Luo Jun was immersed in this simple happiness, he suddenly heard a knock on the window.

"Eh?" Luo Jun turned his head and looked towards the balcony, but there was nothing outside the window.

"What's wrong, Xiaojun?" asked the mother.

"I seemed to hear someone knocking on my window." Luo Jun said honestly. "How is that possible? Our house is on the seventh floor." Mom laughed and said, "You must have heard it wrong."

"But, I really heard it..." Luo Jun walked towards the balcony: "I'll go and take a look."

"Oh, it's time to eat, what are you looking at?" Mom scolded, holding Luo Jun's shoulders and pushing him into the bathroom: "Hurry up and wash your hands, Grandpa will be here soon."

As we were talking, the doorbell rang. Dad went to open the door, called out "Dad" with a smile, and welcomed in a slightly balding old man with kind eyes.

"Grandpa!" Luo Jun, who had just washed his hands, ran over happily and threw himself into his grandfather's arms.

"Oh my dear grandson, let me see if you have gained weight!" Grandpa picked up Luo Jun and weighed him: "Yeah, you have gained weight again. In two years, grandpa won't be able to hold him anymore."

"Not only have I gained weight, I've also grown taller!" Luo Jun stood on tiptoe to show his height. His grandfather compared his height with him and smiled: "Yes, it is indeed, it has reached your chin. In two years, you will surpass me!"

"Come on, Dad, come in and eat. The dishes are ready." Mom brought the fragrant ribs to the dining table.

Luo Jun glanced at the TV in the living room, then looked at his grandfather, and asked cautiously: "Grandpa, can I watch cartoons?"

"You little brat, I've told you so many times that you can't watch TV while eating!" Dad scolded, "You're going to rebel by borrowing your grandfather's help!"

Seeing that his father was angry, Luo Jun quickly hid behind his grandfather: "I'll just watch for a while, the show will start soon, I'll be there after dinner..."

"Oh, alright, alright." Grandpa pleaded, "I'm happy today, so let Junjun see it."

"Great!" Luo Jun jumped up happily, ran over to turn on the TV, returned to the dining table, and deliberately found a seat closest to the TV.

The family sat around the dining table, talking and laughing. Grandpa and Dad clinked glasses, while Mom smiled and put pork ribs into Luo Jun's bowl. Although Luo Jun held the bowl in his hand, his mind was on the TV. He wanted to turn his head 180 degrees and stare at the TV screen in a trance.

Just then, a series of knocking sounds on the window came into Luo Jun's ears again.

The knocking sound was not loud, but for some reason, it reached the ears of Luo Jun who was concentrating on watching cartoons and caught his attention!
"Again?" Luo Jun looked towards the balcony. There was only blue sky and white clouds outside the window. How could he see anyone?
"Is it my illusion?" Luo Jun frowned slightly. He always felt that he seemed to have forgotten something very important, but he couldn't remember it no matter what.

"Xiaojun, what's wrong with you?"

Sensing that he was worried, grandpa asked with concern: "Are you uncomfortable watching here? Why don't you come back to eat after watching?"

"Dad, look, you're spoiling him again!" Dad scolded.

"No..." Luo Jun shook his head and looked at his relatives: "Did you hear someone knocking on the window?"

The three of them looked at each other in bewilderment. "What's knocking on the window? Maybe the wind blew something and hit the window. Don't think too much about it."

Just then, the rhythmic knocking on the window sounded again.

"No, someone is knocking on the window!" Luo Jun stood up and ran to the balcony without saying a word.

Seeing this, several adults seemed to be extremely panicked. They left the table and rushed to catch up, but they were a step too slow and were caught by Luo Jun on the balcony.

Luo Jun tried to open the window, but it seemed to be locked and would not move at all. Being short in stature, he could only climb onto the windowsill and look out.

This is an ordinary old residential area, with rows of seven-story buildings. The open space between the buildings is a long bicycle garage, and the old man who looks after the garage is sitting at the door to enjoy the cool air.

Everything seems normal...

"Look, you heard me wrong." Dad came up behind Luo Jun and said, "Come down quickly. It's dangerous to stand on the windowsill. Let's go back and eat."

Luo Jun frowned in frustration, but suddenly, he widened his eyes and pointed downstairs through the glass: "Grandpa, Dad, Mom, look!"

The three of them looked in the direction of Luo Jun's finger, and saw that a beautiful woman with long hair reaching the ground had appeared downstairs at some point and was running. Behind her, a shirtless burly man was chasing her with a kitchen knife in his hand!
"Look, someone is going to kill someone!" Luo Jun screamed, "Call the police quickly!"

"That's not murder." My mother advised, "That's Xiaoye from the building next door, and the one behind her is her husband, they were just joking!"

"How can this be a joke? You're even using a kitchen knife!" Luo Jun hurriedly said, "If we don't do anything, someone will die!" As he spoke, he kept banging on the window, as if trying to scare off the knife-wielding gangster.

The reason why Luo Jun was so anxious was not only because of his sense of justice, but also because the woman who was being hunted made him feel inexplicably familiar and kind. He instinctively did not want to see her being killed.

"Okay, Xiaojun, stop making trouble." At this time, his grandfather hugged him down from the windowsill and said, "Even if someone really killed someone, it has nothing to do with us. As the saying goes, everyone should take care of their own business. The life and death of others has nothing to do with us. You should eat... Haven't you finished watching the cartoon yet?"

Luo Jun was stunned by his grandfather’s words. He stared blankly at the old man in front of him who was most familiar to him, and suddenly felt a little strange.

"You are not my grandfather!" Luo Jun's tone became firm: "My grandfather would not say such a thing!"

"If I am not your grandpa, who am I?" Grandpa became furious when he heard Luo Jun's words. He reached out to grab Luo Jun, but Luo Jun grabbed his wrist instead.

Luo Jun then realized that his hand was much bigger than before. He turned to look at the window and saw that the reflection was no longer the child of eight or nine years old, but an adult with a strong physique and firm eyes!

"I remember everything now. You are not my grandfather, and you are not my parents." Luo Jun glanced at the three of them, his eyes slightly reddened: "I have already... lost you..."

As his words were confirmed, the three closest relatives turned into smoke and disappeared one by one. Even the furnishings in the room instantly aged and collapsed, becoming dilapidated.

"If possible, I really hope that all this is true." With a disappointed sigh, Luo Jun looked at the woman who was about to be caught up outside the window. He gritted his teeth, broke through the glass window, and flew out!

The surrounding scenery began to change rapidly, from an ordinary street to a strange and distorted space. The man chasing the woman also turned into a huge skeleton monster. The chase between the two was no longer a small fight, but a battle in the sky and on the ground...

At the same time, a long-lost reminder sound came in Luo Jun's mind!
"Trigger mission: Defeat Jiuyou"

"Mission Difficulty: 100"

"Severity factor: 12 times"

"Task consumption: seven uses"

"Task limit: 18 uses"

"Whether to accept?"
