Chapter 142: The oil runs out and the lamp withers

readx;? When I woke up again, I could hear several people talking, but the voice was soft, and I opened my eyes in a daze, and I was now in a dark room. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Tian Lai Novel.2 I don't know how I got to such a place from the escape route, and I want to get up to see it, but I feel that every inch of my body hurts like words.

After experiencing the dangers and dangers of the desert, and then from the desert to this strange forest, I never thought that I could still breathe after encountering so many dangers, but now I feel tired, and every time I move, it is all kinds of torture and suffering.

When the body is disobedient, no matter how much my brain tries to control it, it has no effect, I moved on the ground like a worm a few times, trying to get up again, but I have more than enough strength, and the pain makes my mouth snort.

Not far away, Baocai heard my voice and shouted excitedly, "Hey, I'm finally awake!"

I tried to turn my head to look at him, and he sat down beside me, and the fire monkey shouted excitedly on his shoulder, and before I could open my mouth to ask what this place was, the treasure was like a cannon, and he said, "Son, do you want to ask where we are?" I tell you, after passing the passage, there is a staircase dug in the earth, and when you climb up the stairs, there is a dark hole, and when the hole is peeked out, this is the place. You don't know how tired I was dragging the three of you up by myself, and my hands were almost useless......" he gestured to his own arm.

Baocai talked a lot of nonsense, just to make me grateful to Dade to thank him, but where is the mood to listen to this now, I frowned, gritted my teeth, and struggled to stand up and said: "You said that you dragged the three people up, what about Bajian and Old Man Gu?"

Baocai seemed to remember something important, sighed, and turned to me with a serious face: "Both of them are awake, and they are resting in the corner......"

Hearing this, I swept my gaze across the four corners of the room, and soon I saw two figures in the shadows, one leaning against the wall, and the other sitting next to the person leaning against the wall, neither of whom spoke.

The atmosphere was a little wrong, I was stunned, and shouted carefully: "Old man, Xiaoba, are you okay?"

As soon as the words fell, Gu Xi coughed violently a few times, and Xiaoba said in a deep tone: "Son, just wait for you to wake up, old man...... Say...... He said he had something to tell us...... his voice was much hoarser than before, as if he had cried.

My body sank, and I was stunned and said to Baocai: "Master Bao, I'm sorry for you, I'm in a lot of pain, help me over there......"

Bao Cai nodded, and picked me up carefully, and he didn't say anything at this time, and seemed a little sad. I didn't dare to ask him what was wrong, but Bajian's sentence: "The old man has something to explain to us......" made me feel faintly uneasy.

When I got up to leave, there was a stone bed in the middle of my room, the stone bed was very high, and there was a cold air coming out of it, because my mind was not on it now, so I didn't look carefully, but went around the stone bed to Gu Xi and Xiaoba's side.

I knelt down with difficulty, the old man Gu's breath was very heavy, as if he was pressed by a stone, my heart was faintly throbbing, and when I saw a candle on the wall, I wanted to get up and get it to see the wound of the old man Gu.

Who knew that just as I was about to get up, Xiaoba grabbed me and said gloomily: "The old man said that he didn't want us to see his downfall, so he didn't let him ...... with the candle."

Bao Cai also knelt down at this time, and said in a mournful tone: "You want to see the wound, right? No need to look at it, I have checked it all, and none of them are intact, there are fatal wounds on the top of the head and abdomen, and half of the scalp on the head is gone...... The abdomen is pierced...... Pierced a hole...... Besides, he's too tired......" Baocai said, his throat began to choke, and he turned back silently, and said no more.

When I heard what he said, my heart sank into the sea all of a sudden, and then I looked at Gu Xi in the faint light, his eyes were weak and open, like a fish out of water, his breath became more and more lacking, and he tried his best to pull out a smile, and there was a lot of bitterness in that smile: "I didn't expect it...... The old man is dying...... There are still people who feel sorry for me...... It's still the people I want to use and kill in the first place...... Ahem......"

He said something intermittently, and began to cough again, and when he coughed, blood splattered out of his mouth, and I looked at his haggard face in the gloom, and the sense of decay like a broken candle made people sigh and sigh, and I couldn't help but feel pity.

"Don't talk, rest for a while......" My heart was like a mess, and I barely squeezed out my voice, and then said to Bao Cai, who was sobbing behind my back: "Bao Ye, how many goblin fruits are there?"

Bao Cai choked and said, "It's full of calculations...... There is one more that can be used ......"

"Let's use it all for Old Man Gu, as long as you can ...... Save ......" When I said the word "save", my heart fluctuated so much that I couldn't hold it back, and my throat choked.

"Farewell...... He's used me quite a bit, otherwise I'd be damned by now...... The goblin fruit is indeed a fairy fruit...... But you can't come back to life, the old man's ending today has been decided, why waste anything that can save your life......" Gu Xi rejected my kindness.

Speaking of death, I crossed the matter about the old man's "no shadow" in my heart, but it was not appropriate at the moment, so I swallowed the doubts in my stomach, pulled out a smile, and said to him in a good voice: "Rest for a while, don't talk too much if you feel uncomfortable, if the goblin fruit can continue your life, we are willing to give you more renewal, so that you have time to recover." ”

Old Man Gu laughed and said with emotion: "Silly boy, the old man keeps this breath...... No...... It's not to take your stuff...... I don't want to trouble you with this lingering body, but ...... but I have something to entrust to you...... This thing...... The old man spent his whole life and went through all kinds of hardships, and he thought that he was ...... I thought that this time I met Yu Muye's apprentice, and the head of the Golden Gate, it would be completed, and the old man could rest, but ...... I didn't expect something to happen...... I'm afraid I won't be able to finish the ...... again" When he said "rest", Gu Xi's slightly open eyes revealed a different kind of brilliance.

Later, I learned that "rest" has always been the life he yearns for, without the tribulation of nine deaths and a lifetime, but an ordinary family with grape trellises, drinking fragrant tea, sitting on bamboo and rattan rocking chairs, without any worries.

Ba Jian sniffed when he heard Old Man Gu finish saying this, and he said to Gu Xi bluntly: "If there is anything we want to complete, just say it......! For the sake of saving us repeatedly, I must ...... Fight for your life!"

Xiao Hachi is a face-loving person, and when Gu Xi was still a treasurer, he threatened us many times, so Bajian had hatred in his heart, but this hatred had long been diluted in his heart, and now he just covered his emotions with a hard mouth, not letting sadness engulf him.

Gu Xi trembled his hands and took out a round human-faced jade carving from the cloth bag around his waist. We have seen this jade carving before, on the body of the black-clothed man in the wooden house by the lake, Gu Xi once said that this is an object of their clan, and now when I see it, an inexplicable feeling spreads in my heart.

Gu Xi handed over the human-faced jade carving to me, and said desolately: "The old man has been running around for the clan all his life, and this jade will be handed over to the ...... after you have completed the next things I have entrusted to you In the hands of those men in black.

There is a leader among the men in black named Gu Cheng, I don't know if he is in danger, if he is still alive, he should wait for me at the entrance of this forest...... When he sees this jade carving of a human face, everything will understand......"

I nodded, glanced at the extremely strange human-faced jade pendant, and then asked softly, "What does this jade carving represent......?

Gu Xi intercepted my words and said, "You wait to listen to what the old man says next, and all the mysteries will be solved." (To be continued.) )
