Chapter 190: Gu Worm
"The day after tomorrow!"
The man in black's answer was beyond the imagination of the young kite. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć Info: They're already at their destination, the Ghost Emperor's Palace, before sunset. So even if you don't act tonight, then you should act tomorrow, why do you have to omit tomorrow and set it the day after tomorrow?
The blue kite was puzzled, and habitually frowned. "Why the day after tomorrow, we can act tonight!" Time is a big deal for the kite. The so-called long night dreams are more, and the more likely it is to be discovered after a long time. For his identity, it is simply not allowed to disappear for a long time. After all, with so many pairs of eyes staring, he suddenly disappeared from the Four Divine Beast Families for no reason and didn't know where to go or what to do, so that people who wanted to know would definitely come out to look for him.
It's better to say that if it involves a lot of later, everything will be difficult to continue, and he knows what the consequences will be. What's more, he also risked being killed by the Ghost Emperor!
The man in black took a sip of tea without care, and said slowly: "You can act as you want whenever you want, and I can also cooperate with you." But you have to tell me first, do you know where we're going to go next, do you know where the Horcrux we're looking for is in this Ghost Emperor Palace, do you know how to open it, how to find the soul you're looking for?"
Horcrux Qing Kite was stunned for a moment, and said, "Horcrux, what is a Horcrux?"
The man in black replied, "Although the soul is formless, if it is placed in heaven and earth, it will overflow and eventually become the qi of heaven and earth and be sucked up. If you want your soul to retain its original appearance and not be disturbed, you need to find a container that can resist the erosion of the qi of heaven and earth. And the Horcruxes I am talking about are the shelters of those souls! If we want to find the soul you are looking for, we must first find the Horcruxes that are in bloom. And the Ghost Emperor has a purple gold nanmu hexagonal tripod in his hand, and in that hexagonal tripod is trapped all the souls that the Ghost Emperor has mastered. Only when you find this hexagonal tripod and open it can you release the soul you are looking for!"
Qing Kite asked, "Since you know that the Ghost Emperor has hidden all the souls in his hands in that hexagonal tripod, then you should also know where the hexagonal tripod is in this Ghost Emperor Palace, right?"
The man in black shook his head and said, "It's because I don't know that I don't plan to do anything tonight." I need to understand the layout of the entire Ghost Emperor Palace first, and find out where the Horcruxes are before I can come up with a countermeasure. ā
The kite-like asked, "So what are we going to do next?"
The man in black chuckled, "Wait." ā
The word can be long or short.
The green kite looked at him and said, "What do you mean by that? Just sit here and wait, and in the end you won't get anything." ā
The man in black raised his eyes when he heard this, and said, "What do I mean? It seems that this trip, the countermeasures are all I think, right?" He lowered his eyes, looked at the teacup and said, "I have my own way, you can rest assured." Since I have already made an agreement with you, then I will come up with a way to get the Death Stone, even if I have no choice. ā
The blue kite squinted, "You...... What the hell are you going to do with the Death Stone, resurrect yourself?"
The man in black laughed: "I don't even have a soul, how can I be resurrected?" He glanced at a small section of his arm that was exposed outside his sleeve, the skin on that arm was loose on the bones, and he could barely see any flesh and blood in it that could hold up this layer of human skin, "Could it be because of my body that is so rigid that it can't even rot?"
The blue kite asked, "You said you were cursed and died of ossification. But I see that you have limbs and five senses, and you can speak and walk, which is completely different from what you said......"
The man in black said, "My body is rigid, but I am not dead. But my soul is dead, so my existence is nothing more than a phrase for the walking dead. Although it doesn't look like much, it's actually rotten inside. In other words, I'm just a skeleton in human skin, what's the difference between being dead and dead?"
Blue Kite: "......"
I don't know when the rain outside the corridor has stopped, and you can still see the rainbow under the sunset. The rainbow hung on the eaves, the seven colors were clear and the light was dazzling.
The man in black glanced up, looking as if he hadn't seen a rainbow for a long, long time, and there was a look of nostalgia on his face.
After a while, he slowly said, "Although it seems to us that there are no palace people in this entire Ghost Emperor Palace, it may not be what we see. It would be inappropriate to act tonight. We are not familiar with the terrain here, and rash action will only make us exposed faster! Here, once exposed, it means that this Luofu Mountain can only be our last trip. Against the Ghost Emperor, we all have to die here!"
At the end, he seemed to feel that something was wrong, and he added, "I don't have any confidence that I can still go down the mountain if I am caught stealing something on the territory of the Ghost Emperor. But you're different, you're one of the heirs of the Four Divine Beast Families, and the Ghost Emperor shouldn't kill you. ā
The green kite said, "Then what are you going to do?"
The man in black stretched out his arm, pulled the sleeves on his arm to his shoulder, then pointed to his bare arm, and said to the green kite, "Lean on it." ā
The green kite was stunned: "By your hand?"
The man in black shook his head, pointed to his arm and continued, "Look carefully!"
The green kite didn't know why, but she still did what he said. I saw that under his wrinkled skin, there was something wriggling. Looking at the small strip propped up from under the shriveled skin, the blue kite felt like a worm. The thin line, which was not too thick, scurried back and forth under the skin, as if looking for an exit.
The man in black pulled out a dagger he had carried with him, and made a cut in his shriveled skin. He placed the dagger on the table, and then with his other hand he grabbed the flat skin that had just been cut but still fit together, and pulled himself into a wound that he couldn't see and pulled it into the size of a handicap.
But as the man in black said, there were only bones under the skin that had not yet rotted, and the color of the bones was dull, as if the blood had solidified on it. Beneath the torn open wound, a snow-white insect crawled along the cut skin to the outside of his wound.
The man in black said: "This is the Gu worm I raised, and I carved a trap on its body, and it can only be trapped in my body." He can move around my body, but he can only drive me. ā
The green kite wondered, "What can this insect do?"
The man in black said with a smile: "This little guy has an extremely sensitive sense of smell, especially for magic weapons. If it goes out, it's sure to find something. (To be continued.) )
