Chapter 280: Breaking into the Soul Palace
Hearing the Black Shadow Man say that he was going to enter the Soul Burial Palace, there was a commotion in the conference room.
Prior to this, since no one dared to enter the Burial Soul Palace without permission, the candidate for the new book king in the south could never be determined. Now the Dark Shadow Man is preparing to go to the Soul Burial Palace, which will obviously break the existing deadlock.
"Dark Shadow Book King, if you really want to go to the Soul Burial Palace, the old man is willing to accompany you. At this time, Cao Shuxiong took the initiative to speak.
Cao Shuxiong has never dared to enter the Soul Burial Palace without authorization, for fear of putting his old life in. It's just that now that there is a dark shadow man with him, the danger is greatly reduced.
As we all know, the Dark Shadow Man likes to act chivalrous, and if there is any danger in the Soul Burial Palace, he will definitely come to the rescue. With the Black Shadow Man as a companion, personal safety is basically guaranteed.
What's more, once he can come out of the Burial Soul Palace alive, it is equivalent to having the qualifications to run for the king of the southern book, which is exactly what Cao Shuxiong wants most.
Considering these, Cao Shuxiong immediately made a decision and said: "The Burial Soul Palace is in full danger, and the Black Shadow Book King cannot be allowed to take risks alone, and the old man is willing to escort the Black Shadow Book King." ”
As soon as Cao Shuxiong finished speaking, several old committee members in the conference room also expressed their attitudes, all of them volunteered and took the initiative to be bodyguards for the black shadow man.
These people, like Cao Shuxiong, want to take the opportunity to hug the thighs of the black shadow man and break through in the Soul Burial Palace, and then they will have the qualifications to run for the king of books.
Liu Xing originally wanted to refuse their kindness, but unfortunately, these people were unwilling to leave the position of the king of books to others, and insisted on entering the Soul Burial Palace.
After persuasion failed, Liu Xing declared: "If you want to go to the Soul Burial Palace, I have no right to interfere. However, the ugly words are said first, if you have any accidents in the Soul Burial Palace, I will not be responsible. ”
Hearing this, everyone looked at each other, and their hearts couldn't help but tighten: the black shadow man...... You won't die without help, right?
It's just that the words have already been spoken, and these committee members are not willing to admit it on the spot, so they can only bite the bullet.
Cao Shuxiong said loudly: "Don't worry, the Black Shadow Book King, we are voluntarily entering the Soul Burial Palace. We take responsibility for ourselves. ”
"Dean Cao is right, if we die in the Soul Burial Palace, we are also to blame, and it has nothing to do with the Black Shadow Book King. ”
……
After listening to the people. Liu Xing didn't say anything more and decided to go to the Soul Burial Palace immediately.
He was accompanied by a total of 23 committee members, including Cao Shuxiong, dean of the School of Book Burning Novels, Tong Jiuxian, dean of the School of Broken Qin Novels, and Zhao Changqing, president of the Lezhou Writers Association.
After that, Liu Xing and 23 committee members came to the library of the Broken Qin Novel Academy.
The Soul Palace is located in the underground vault of the library.
The library is located on a small island in the middle of a lake on campus, and the island is full of greenery. Flowers are vibrant, antique, pavilions and pavilions can be seen everywhere, it is a classical garden with quite charm.
On the south side of the garden, there is a skyscraper, a total of 88 floors, the shape of a horizontal piano, each floor is a giant key, the whole building is composed of black and white, simple and simple. But it is full of postmodern beauty.
This building is the library of the School of Broken Qin Fiction.
When they came to the door of the library, everyone saw a young woman standing here, she was Hua Yingxue.
Hua Yingxue's current identity is the personal female assistant of the Black Shadow Book King, and she will also accompany the Black Shadow Man into the Soul Burial Palace.
"Black Shadow Book King, this is the entrance to the Soul Burial Palace. ”
Under the leadership of Tong Jiuxian, Liu Xing, Hua Yingxue, Cao Shuxiong and others entered the basement of the library together, and after passing several levels, they came to a jade bib.
The jade is about five meters high, and the surface is carved with reliefs, which are seven shining stars with silver light.
Tong Jiuxian took a crystal stick the size of chopsticks. Rhythmically tapping the star relief on the jade bi, making a crisp sound of "ding ding ding".
After striking seventy-seven and forty-nine times in a row, suddenly, the jade bi shook slightly. Slowly, an entrance opened.
As soon as the entrance was opened, a cold white chill came out, and everyone couldn't help but shiver, and several committee members couldn't help but show fear on their faces.
When everyone came back to their senses, Yubi had already opened a rectangular door.
"After passing through this door, you will enter the Soul Burial Palace. Tong Jiuxian introduced.
There was a sudden silence around. The committee members held their breath with solemn expressions, you look at me, I look at you, no one dares to take a step forward, and their hearts have already risen to their throats.
Legend has it that those who enter the Soul Burial Palace die nine times.
While everyone was hesitating, Liu Xing had already passed through the gate of jade bi and entered the Burial Soul Palace, followed by Hua Yingxue.
The committee members looked at each other, hesitated for a while, and then quickly chased after each other.
Entering the Burial Soul Palace, what is presented in front of you is a long orange passage, and the four walls of the passage are bright orange-like colors, bright and attractive.
The crowd walked cautiously forward, and suddenly, music began to sound in the passage.
The timbre of the music is very penetrating, invisibly, it seems to have a heartwarming breath, when the sound enters the ears, Liu Xing seems to be electrified, and the whole person trembles slightly.
Immediately after that, the blood in the body began to accelerate, and the breathing became rapid.
"What's going on?"
Sensing the abnormality, Liu Xing hurriedly transported the internal strength to protect the body, and after a while, he only felt a churning in his stomach, and suddenly felt a sense of hunger and thirst, and he couldn't wait to eat a big meal immediately, and he couldn't help but think of the flower chicken roasted by the little dragon girl in his mind......
Just as Liu Xing fantasized about eating roast chicken, others also had similar dietary desires. After hearing the music playing in the passage, everyone's appetite skyrocketed, as if they hadn't eaten food for more than ten days.
"This passage is called the Burial Soul Path, and there are a total of seven Burial Soul Paths in the Burial Soul Palace, each of which can stimulate a kind of desire-desire in people. ”
At this time, Tong Jiuxian introduced to everyone, "The music played by the first Burial Soul Dao is called "Funeral Food Song", which can stimulate people's appetite. The more people who like to overeat, the more thoroughly their appetite will be stimulated. When the appetite reaches a certain level, it will be hungry, and in severe cases, it will collapse and fall into a coma......"
"Ahh
Suddenly, there was a scream in the passage, and I saw a fat committee member with a fat figure suddenly pounced on Cao Shuxiong, and his mouth bit Cao Shuxiong's ear directly, and a stream of blood gushed out from his ear, as if he wanted to eat the other party's ear.
Cao Shuxiong screamed in pain and pushed the fat committee member away.
The fat committee members are like mad dogs, and they treat the other committee members as food. began to bite people indiscriminately, and everyone hurriedly dodged, and after a commotion, the fat commissioner's feet were soft. Suddenly collapsed to the ground, his fat body convulsed a few times, and he fell unconscious on the spot.
Everyone was stunned and looked at the fat committee member with a look of horror.
Tong Jiuxian checked the fat commissioner's body and sighed, "This old guy is too greedy. No wonder the body is so fat. His appetite was too strong, so he couldn't pass the first Soul Burial Path. ”
Cao Shuxiong covered his bloody ears with his hands and asked, "Could it be that all greedy people will faint and die in this passage?"
Tong Jiuxian nodded: "The more greedy you are, the faster you will faint." ”
As he spoke, two bookkeepers in police uniforms, both wearing special soundproof earmuffs on their heads, entered the passage, and together they carried the unconscious fat commissioner out.
After this little episode, the others moved on.
The "Funeral Song" in the passage continued to sound, and as time went on, everyone's appetite continued to increase.
A few minutes later. Three more members of the committee could not control their appetite and passed out.
By the end of the first Soul Burial Path, only 19 of the 23 members remained.
"Congratulations, you have passed the test of the first Soul Burial Path, and none of you are gluttonous people. At this time, Tong Jiuxian introduced, "Now, we will enter the second Soul Burial Path. ”
There is a corner at the end of the first Soul Path, and after passing through, another yellow-colored passage appears ahead.
"Uh-huh--"
Suddenly. Another bizarre piece of music sounded in the passage.
"This music is called "Funeral Color Song", which can stimulate people's lust. Tong Jiuxian explained, "The second soul burial path tests everyone's lust, and all those who are good and lustful are excessive. It's hard to walk this path. The higher the degree of erosity, the faster the coma will be. ”
After hearing this, the faces of all the committee members couldn't help but change.
Good-lust?
Which man is not -?
When "Funeral Song" sounded, Liu Xing's whole body suddenly felt a burst of heat, and he only felt that an evil fire surged up from the epiphany, spreading from the lower half of his body to the upper body. There is a feeling of desire-fire burning the body.
Realizing that the situation was wrong, Liu Xing immediately activated the "Cold Ice True Qi", and the true qi from yin to cold traveled all over his body, and he simply suppressed the evil fire in his body, and after tossing for a while, the physiology of his body finally returned to normal.
"Ahh
At this time, Hua Yingxue suddenly screamed, and saw the two committee members' faces turn red, their expressions were obscene, and they pounced on Hua Yingxue with open hands.
Hua Yingxue hurriedly ran away, but in the other direction, four more committee members who had lost their minds by lust rushed up.
Before Hua Yingxue had time to dodge, another committee member on the left had already reached out and grabbed Hua Yingxue's arm, and was about to vent, when the Jiuyang True Qi in Hua Yingxue's body was instantly activated, and it directly repulsed.
Boom!
The committee member was directly ejected, and after landing, his body convulsed violently, and he immediately fell unconscious.
At the same time, the other six committee members had already rushed over and attacked Hua Yingxue back and forth.
Bang, bang, bang! bang!
With the screams, the six figures were shocked out at the same time.
Hua Yingxue is safe and sound.
Seeing that Hua Yingxue was able to deal with the six perverted wolf commissioners by herself, Liu Xing felt that there was no need for him to make a move.
Unexpectedly, at this time, two committee members rushed towards Liu Xing, with extremely obscene expressions.
"What's the situation?"
Liu Xing's mind moved, and he secretly performed "Dragon Capture Gong", and his internal strength was shocked, and the two committee members flew seven or eight meters away like balls, and fell into a coma on the spot.
As soon as two members fell to the ground, two other members rushed up.
Liu Xing didn't say a word and put them to the ground, and at the same time, Hua Yingxue stunned the three committee members.
After a scuffle, 13 of the 19 commissioners fell unconscious, leaving only 6.
Looking at the 13 committee members lying on the ground, Tong Jiuxian sighed: "Alas, the hero is sad to pass the beauty pass, there are so many people who can't pass the second soul burial path, and lust is really the most deep-rooted desire of most people!"
After a pause, Tong Jiuxian cast a strange look at Cao Shuxiong, "Old Cao, I didn't expect you to be unpleasant, it's really commendable!"
Cao Shuxiong ignored it, and asked again: "What is the third burial soul path?"
Tong Jiuxian said: "The third soul burial path stimulates people's 'greed-desire', and all people who are greedy and greedy can't pass it. ”
"Greed-greed?"
Cao Shuxiong's face changed slightly.
As he spoke, everyone had successfully passed the second Soul Burial Path, and after turning a corner, they entered the third Soul Burial Path.
This is a red passage, and when I first entered, a song "Funeral Song" sounded.
"Ahh
Soon after the music came out, there was a scream, Liu Xing looked back, and saw that Cao Shuxiong had fallen to the ground, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth, the scene was shocking.
His eyes kept looking, and after a while, Cao Shuxiong also fell into a coma.
"Lao Cao, you really died of greed. Tong Jiuxian shook his head, with a slight look of regret on his face.
The other four surviving committee members were also apprehensive, and they could not have imagined that Cao Shuxiong would be so aroused by greed that his mouth spurted blood.
When they reached the end of the third Soul Burial Path, there were only seven people left. In addition to Liu Xing and Hua Yingxue, there are five committee members.
Tong Jiuxian took a step forward and said, "Black Shadow Book King, I can only send you here." The fourth burial soul path stimulates people's lazy desires, and I am a relatively lazy person, so I am afraid that I will not be able to pass it, so I can only take one step first. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the other four committee members also expressed their desire to quit.
Now that there are only three burial soul paths, 18 committee members have passed out, and the remaining four soul burial paths are afraid that they are even more dangerous, and the surviving four committee members are suddenly frightened and dare not continue to move forward.
"Shadow Book King, we are waiting for you outside the Soul Burial Palace. Tong Jiuxian said, "Be more careful yourself." ”
Liu Xing nodded.
After that, all the commissioners left at the same time.
In the entire burial soul passage, only Liu Xing's Hua Yingxue was left.
"Yingxue, do you want to quit too?" asked Liu Xing.
Hua Yingxue shook her head: "No, I'm fine." ”
The first three burial soul paths went all the way down, and Liu Xing's mind was actually affected to a certain extent, and it was not easy.
On the contrary, it was Hua Yingxue, she was not affected in any way from beginning to end, and she did not have the slightest desire.
"Yingxue, although you have passed the first three Soul Burial Paths, it doesn't mean that you can also pass the last four Soul Burial Paths. Liu Xing reminded, "Aren't you afraid that the Soul Burial Dao behind you will reveal your desires?"
Hua Yingxue thought about it and shook her head: "Don't be afraid." Curiously, he asked, "Black Shadow Man, why did the Soul Burial Fairy build these seven Soul Burial Paths?"
Liu Xing speculated: "The Seven Soul Burial Dao represent the seven strongest desires of human beings, and once each of them gets out of control, it may become a great evil. I think the Soul Burial Fairy may hope that a person who has no desires and no desires will inherit the throne of the king of books, so that he can truly subdue the world's scholars, rather than for his own selfishness. The people who can pass through the Seven Soul Burial Paths are basically people who can control their desires. ”
"In this way, the Soul Burial Fairy is also well-intentioned. Hua Yingxue's eyes flashed, and she asked curiously, "Black Shadow Man, what is your greatest desire?"
"Guess. ”
"I don't know. ”
"You can guess. “
"Hmm...... You want to get a wife?"
"Not true. ”
"Do you already have a wife?"
"The two don't seem to contradict each other. ”
“……”
……
While chatting, the two had already entered the fourth Soul Burial Path together...... (To be continued.) )
