No. 438, Cocoon of Original Sin
"I really didn't expect you to come back, since you were rescued, wouldn't it be nice to find a safe place to hide?"
Liu Ziyi saw Situ Xichen's bloody appearance, and immediately felt that this young man was definitely sick in the brain, and he really couldn't figure out why a person would come to the enemy camp to die at the risk of his life.
"Less nonsense, where's that Mingu bastard?"
Situ Xichen said coldly, if you talk about disgust, the degree of disgust of this old thing in front of you is even higher than Minggu, even the most stupid person should be more or less aware that this guy is definitely not just a simple identity of a housekeeper, and Minggu is not a person who destroys the world, so his identity is about to come out - it is completely a troublemaker.
"Lord Liu Ziyi, his subordinates are incompetent, leading so many brothers but still can't take down this madman."
The leader of the soldiers half-knelt down in front of Liu Ziyi, showing an expression of self-reproach, in a sense, he who failed to take Situ Xichen down at the beginning was really ashamed of the Ming family's cultivation of him for so many years.
"It's okay, you don't have to blame yourself, just step down, just leave everything here to the old man."
Liu Ziyi waved his hand and said, but he secretly sneered for a while in his heart, he had long known that these pampered soldiers on weekdays could not play much of a role, but he didn't expect it to be so unhelpful, so many god-level soldiers and an attribute god-level commander couldn't even help a god, and the Ming family really raised these wastes in vain.
"Yes!"
The leader showed a grateful expression, and hurriedly sent his men back, I have to say that these soldiers were very well-trained when they retreated, and it took less than half a minute to empty this place.
"Why, you still think you can deal with me alone? You've forgotten the lesson of the night before, haven't you? ”
Situ Xichen saw Liu Ziyi send all his subordinates away, and immediately sneered, he couldn't leave Liu Ziyi behind the night before yesterday because he couldn't play a lot of hole cards, but after a battle with Minggu, this guy can probably understand that he is not such an attribute god for himself, right?
Liu Ziyi heard this merciless ridicule, and the leisurely smile on his face suddenly froze, to tell the truth, if he really faced Situ Xichen now, he really didn't have much chance of winning, especially when he knew that this little ghost actually had the ability of the second stage of deification, he was even more bottomless in his heart, how could he say it now, he was also a teenager, but it was the first time in his life that he felt that he was not sure at all about dealing with a little ghost who was less than twenty years old.
"If you know the gap between us, get out of the way, and say, where is that Mingu's bastard?"
Situ Xichen sneered, since he came here again, he didn't plan to get out alive, and besides, he didn't come to find Liu Ziyi to duel, although he didn't know what Ming Gu's plan was, maybe it would be a delay for a while, even if it was a while, as long as he could survive to the moon wheel, he would win.
Hearing Situ Xichen's contemptuous words, Liu Ziyi's face suddenly didn't look good, but in the end, he suppressed the anger in his heart, turned around, turned his back to Situ Xichen and said:
"Come with me."
????
Situ Xichen was stunned for a moment, was the progress of this situation a little too smooth? He originally thought that he would have to have a fierce battle with this old guy to get the positions of Mingu and Xi'er, but he didn't expect it to end so easily, what about the battle and blood that he said?
"There is an ambush?"
He can only think like this now, but after thinking about it, he feels that the other party should not have this need at all, he is only one person now, and he is trapped in the enemy camp, it is definitely easier to suppress him with numbers and absolute force than to waste time making traps and ambushes, and their Ming family is not unaffordable, not to mention that the Ming family still has the ultimate boss of Ming Gu, and it should not take much effort to deal with himself.
Although there were still doubts in his heart, Situ Xichen still kept up with Liu Ziyi's footsteps, after all, in the current situation, he was the one who was passive.
Liu Ziyi took Situ Xichen all the way to the depths of the Ming Mansion, and finally stopped in front of a stone gate, the former fiddled with the door for a while, and the stone door suddenly began to shake, and then the stone door suddenly opened, and a passage appeared below, Liu Ziyi looked back at Situ Xichen, and immediately smiled:
"Please."
After that, he entered the stone gate first, and Situ Xichen hesitated for a while, and then immediately followed him in.
The world inside the stone gate is still very dark, and the only things that can be used as lighting are some luminous gems engraved on the surrounding stone walls, which look very strange, like some amazing tombs.
This passage was only about twenty meters long, but it was very steep, and Situ Xichen could probably calculate from the angle that they were at a place eight or nine meters below the ground level at this time, and now they could finally see what looked like an exit.
Walking out of the exit, Liu Ziyi and Situ Xichen came to a very wide underground clearing, the ground was full of runes and some strange patterns that he couldn't understand, and in the center of these patterns, a huge "cocoon" that seemed to be covered by vines appeared in front of him, Situ Xichen subconsciously felt that the divine power fluctuations in it were not quite right, and immediately realized that this was very likely to be Ming Xi'er......
"Cier!"
Situ Xichen shouted, but there was no movement inside, as if there was no life form in this "giant cocoon" at all, his expression suddenly became hideous, and he said sharply to Minggu who seemed to be recuperating his breath next to him:
"What did you do to your daughter!"
"You're here?"
Although Ming Gu knew that Situ Xichen had already come, he didn't open his eyes until he heard this voice, and the tone of greeting was not like a hostile person at all, but like an old friend who hadn't seen him for a long time.
"What the is wrong with you Xi'er?!"
Situ Xichen shouted angrily, until he came to this stone gate, he still had a glimmer of hope for this, fantasizing that Minggu and their actions should not be so fast, but now seeing this scene, even if he didn't understand what was going on, he knew that Xi'er's current state was definitely wrong.
"As you can see, the ceremony has begun."
Ming Gu said with a flat face, as if it was not his daughter at all in this "giant cocoon", but an experimental subject.
"What ritual?"
Situ Xichen said coldly, could it be a ritual to forcibly remove the original sin from the body?
As soon as he thought of this, Situ Xichen couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, he hadn't seen this situation before, but the reason why Zhang Xin was able to succeed that time was because there were several god kings and several god emperors present who were even able to barely meet the requirements, and there seemed to be some unpredictable problems during the withdrawal period, and now there was only Ming Gu, a god king, if it was said that this so-called "ceremony" was absolutely safe, the parties would not believe it.
"This ritual may be a little different from what you think now, and it is also a little different in nature, I don't mean to take the original sin away from Xi'er, and everything I do now is for Xi'er's good."
Ming Gu seemed to see through Situ Xichen's thoughts, and said with a smile, and when Situ Xichen heard his words, he suddenly felt that his anger was even more uncontrollable, and said angrily:
"You're going to be a hypocrite until now?! That's your own daughter! ”
Situ Xichen roared, but he could no longer restrain his impulse, and suddenly lifted twelve points of divine power in his hand, rushed to the front of the "giant cocoon", and slammed a punch at this strange thing!
It stands to reason that seeing this situation happen, Ming Gu should step forward to stop it, but now he has a relaxed expression, just looking at Situ Xichen with a play-watching expression, and he is not worried about an unexpected situation at all.
Situ Xichen almost instilled all the divine power that could be mobilized into his hand, and slammed it at the "giant cocoon", this thing didn't look very tough, and it didn't feel so hard, Situ Xichen subconsciously felt that his punch could at least penetrate the outer protective layer, but he was now very worried about whether this punch would hurt Xi'er inside.
However, at this time, the "giant cocoon" suddenly underwent some changes.
The "giant cocoon" that was originally like a dead thing suddenly began to surge, and it actually blocked Situ Xichen's all-out punch, and immediately pulled out some small turquoise snake-like things from it, instantly restraining Situ Xichen's body, and slamming it at the periphery!
"Humph!"
Situ Xichen's body was smashed on the stone wall, and he suddenly felt a suffocation in his chest, and suddenly a large mouthful of blood poured out of his mouth, and he calmed down for a long time, which made his body feel better, but the blow just now seemed to have some divine power damage in addition to physical damage, and for a while, the divine power with a very erosive effect began to act on his body, so that his unstable breath immediately suffered a secondary injury.
And the "giant cocoon" that has done this does not seem to have any intention of pursuing the victory, but has stabilized, and it may not have received the order just now, but simply acts of self-protection, as if it is a conditioned reflex.
"It's useless."
When Ming Gu saw this scene, he suddenly smiled and said:
This thing is called the "Cocoon of Original Sin", and now the relationship between Xi'er and the outside world has almost been severed, so to speak, this is another world, and it is almost impossible for you to use the divine power of this world to interfere with the affairs of another world, even if it is me, there is absolutely no way to wake up Xi'er at this time without paying any price, and once the ritual starts, it will never stop. ”
"Since you can't stop it, you might as well join me to witness the final moment, if you don't mind......"
Ming Gu's eyes narrowed, looked at Situ Xichen's eyes, and said with a smile:
"Would you like to hear me tell me who Ciel really is? These words have been blocked in my heart for more than ten years, and I have never been able to find someone to talk to, so I blame the aggrieved ......"
