Chapter 327: Grotesque: Nine Heart Locks (Part II)

May 29, 4:15 a.m

(Sealed with a token that can command that thing) Chong walked in the dark and empty tomb while looking at the half of the jade lock that had been removed from his neck, the person who made this jade lock may even surpass the famous craftsman (carpenter) Lu Ban of the Celestial Empire, although this lock theory is offensive at all, but holding on to one can be said to be as immobile as a mountain, and the lock is like a small organ city, and it took him more than a year to only split it in half, Because the first process of this lock is to disassemble it before it can be unlocked

"Forget it" put the jade lock back on, he was not interested in what was inside, he knew very well that he had desires. The things you want are uncontrollable, there is no need to sacrifice your life for a subordinate, and using objects as shackles will only bring about your own destruction, if you don't plan for long-term development every time you do something, it will be over

(When talking to the man before, he didn't say what was in the tomb, but the place where the coffin was placed must be in danger) After Chong stabilized his mind, he was always vigilant around, the trap inside could not be a pediatric thing like an arrow crossbow needle pit, anyway, it was all dead people, so how big it could be depends on their minds

"About half an hour later, Chong has already walked to the gate of the underground mausoleum, there is really no mechanism? The emperor is so fond of his ancestors that he doesn't dare to place traps in their tombs?

"It's not that no, it's that when the foundation was destroyed a few days ago, it was all taken away by the way" Yakumo Zi quietly drilled out of the gap, "Remind you, after six o'clock, the witch will bring someone to re-lay the net, you still have nearly an hour to go, otherwise with the inspiration of the witch, it is easy to find that there is an extra living person in the mausoleum"

"But you don't seem to be able to go underground~" Yakumo Zi looked at the jade lock hanging on the door and couldn't help but chuckle, "The second nine-heart lock, how about it?" Can you untie it in an hour."

(But speaking of which, those so-called emperors are really losers, the nine heart locks and the ten life stones, which are the world's treasures, are willing to be buried in the mausoleum for the dead to be buried, if you take it out, it will really be tricky) Yakumo Zi couldn't help but think of this kind of thing in her heart, maybe those people only think that the nine heart locks are a natural warehouse used to store things, but she knows very well what the jade locks from one person are for, in her eyes, the things sealed in the cloud chong lock are not as valuable as the lock itself, Of course, the lock is only worth it once it is opened

"Since there is a second lock in this mausoleum, why don't you take it away," Chong asked, pointing to the jade jade lock hanging from the stone door, "You don't want what is in my lock, but the lock itself, right?" ”

"That's right, but all I want is this lock that you have hanging on your body" Yakumo Zi reached in and rummaged through it after opening a gap in his hand, and when he took it out again, his slender five fingers were already full of several nine-heart locks, but the colors were white, dark purple, gray-brown, light blue and light yellow "I have unlocked a lot of locks over the years, but only the one in your hand is the real thing"

"That means the lock can be easily pierced," Chong plucked a hair from his head and slipped through the gap between the keyholes

"Hey, hey, hey, hey, he Yakumo Murasaki covered her surprised little mouth with a fan, "I can solve it because I can open a small gap in the lock and turn it directly with my fingers, you do this"

Then the turquoise lock made a "click" and fell to the ground

"Pirated goods" Chong also shook his head and expressed dissatisfaction, "I don't have my own door lock, it's hard to open"

"Is this really something made by one person?" Yakumo Purple said that her five views seemed to have been refreshed

"Lie down" Yakumo suddenly reminded himself when the door opened, and then he was directly pressed to the floor by gravity and could not move

"Roll" waved the folding fan and slashed at her with the knife to extinguish the resentful spirit

"Don't think that this is a holy resting place" After revoking the "realm of light and heavy", Yakumo Zi said coldly, "How much blood has been stained on the hands of the emperors of the past dynasties, and after their deaths, those resentful spirits have come to them, and these are still the kings who remained after being wiped out by the barrier in the mausoleum."

Chong ignored her, and after standing up, he planned to continue inside

"Leave the lock, I'm afraid the two in your house have already got the other half of the lock in their hands" Yakumo Zi stretched out his hand, "I can give you the things inside, but I want to take the lock itself"

"You youkai," Chong said to him coldly, "no one has allowed you to threaten them with me!" ”

"It's not a threat, otherwise would you still be able to stand on the ground now, and besides, why should I have the permission of others to act" Yakumo Purple fell lightly from mid-air to the ground "I'm a big youkai, no one can order me, what I want to do is up to my heart, youkai are free, and big youkai are even more unrestrained"

"Come on, I'll just stand here and kill you, if you're not satisfied, you can move me however you want" Yakumo Zi smiled in a voice with H meaning, "Do you want to try to become an adult?" ”

"But is it really good to do this~ As you said, no one dares to touch you in the outside world, but you don't dare to touch me here, why? Because you're just a little longer than the others with the chains around your neck, you're scared too," Yakumo walked up to him and tapped him on the cheek, "If someone finds out that you dare to enter here, how do you think you're going to die?" People are afraid that one day they will die, people with status are afraid, and people with the ability to gain status like you are afraid of death, don't you dare to do it? ”

"Aren't you going to remove the shackles from yourself? You can't untie it, but you can slowly climb to the end of the chain and give me the lock you can see, so you can unlock the invisible lock faster," Yakumo whispered in her ear

"Less temptation. Bewitch me" Chong wanted to push her away, but found that his body couldn't move at all, and he wasn't restrained by her

-- but the lock in my heart, the one called desire. The shackles of hope bound themselves

"Hehe~ It's not a temptation. Tempting you, oh, woman's seduction. Confusion is with the body, I just told the truth" Yakumo Zi took a few steps back with a smile "Look, I have succeeded, you are a fish that bites the hook all the time, and my hook has what you want, you think about it carefully, a group of so-called strong people who also wear locks like you, and a weak person who is not as powerful as them but is free, who do you think is more suitable for you to cooperate~"

"Come, I will be responsible for burning this flame vigorously, I will make it enough to make you reborn from the fire, and at the same time fly to a high altitude that you may not be able to fly to for many years" Yakumo Zi stretched out his hand again, "It's just to add more fuel, don't you care~"

"Deal" can't remember what kind of tone he used to say this sentence at that time, gritting his teeth? Helpless? Anger or shame? Pain or hesitation?

He only knew that he had done nothing wrong, at least not regretted it

"I like to talk to smart people, because they will never let me down" Yakumo Zi waved his folding fan when he saw Chong handing over the jade lock to him, and an illusory chain was between the lock and his heart

The "realm of the void and the real" moments later, the chains are transformed into entities

The "realm of hard and brittleness" chains made a "rustling" sound

"Break" pulls it off with a gentle pull of your hand

"Then I'll go get the other half of the lock, wait for me for the time being, I'll help you get to the center of the stone plate later" Yakumo Zi disappeared soon after opening the gap

"Qiang Qiang~Your master has already given me the lock~" Yakumo Zi raised the half of the jade lock in his hand and said proudly, "What, I didn't lie to you, right?"

"Take it," Tamamo handed her the other half of the jade lock he was holding, "I want to see the owner intact."

"No problem~ A copy of the intact owner Sama, right~ I'll send it to you after six o'clock~" Yakumo Zi chuckled and closed the gap "Happy cooperation~"

“…… Is that really good? Cerberus asked, watching the wound heal

"She must be trying to do something big with this lock, but do we care?" Tamamo said word by word, "I only care about the life and death of the master, and I won't care about the rest of the people."

"Yes, then let's wait for the boss to come back" They are the great monsters of freedom, and they are only willing to hand over the end of the chain to the hands of Yuyun Chong, except for him, everything is under the ants

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――― unlocked dividing line

"It's a big feedback, I'll teach you how to unlock this heart lock" Yakumo Zi chuckled after holding the two halves of the lock with both hands, "How can you use skills to unlock people's heart locks, this is not a craft, but a living human heart."

"Vigilance, infatuation, love, love, heartache, painstaking heart, peace, confidence, unity, unlocking to nine processes, one line and one heart" Yakumo Zi opened his left hand after a while, and the original jade lock had turned into a red and beating heart "There is no heart in the rest of the nine heart locks, because there is only one human heart, only this one is a live lock, and the rest of the dead locks have no effect even if they are opened, they can only store things and not take things"

"But it's a pity that after all, this lock is also a half-finished product, and it needs to be separated to become a heart, so how can it be regarded as a heart lock" Yakumo Zi opened his other hand, and the colorless key lay quietly in the palm of his hand

"Oops, oops~ Leave the work of unlocking to yourself~" Yakumo Zi threw both things backwards at the same time, and then a burst of black mist swallowed it into the darkness

"Boom!" A moment later a heartbeat echoed through the silent mausoleum, and then a rusty bronze plaque fell to the ground with a softer thud

"I'm sure you won't want this thing," Yakumo Murasaki picked up the bronze medal and shook it twice, "Then I'll keep it as a souvenir."

"You send him down, I'm going back" Yakumo Purple said to the empty behind him, "I'll pick you two up in the morning"

"No problem" A dark shadow suddenly appeared on the ground, and then it stood in front of it and turned into a door "Come in"

"Goodbye, I hope we won't meet again next time" Yakumo Zi waved his hand and walked into the gap, while Chong walked silently into the dark demon gate

"Hehe, I saw your past last time, so this time I want to know everything about you" It was pitch black inside the door, and then the laughter of men and women sounded all around

"It's disgusting for you to pretend to be a woman," Chong walked towards the light

"Ten lives, then I want to know what I will be like" After a few moments, there was nothing left in the aisle, except for a key that fell to the ground alone

postscript

"You can unlock this lock yourself, because only a heartless person can have an extra heart" Yakumo Murasaki let out a faint sigh after returning to Gensokyo, "I am hard-hearted, and you are heartless and desireless, but one does not need a heart, and the other longs for a heart"

"Now the value of this lock is gone, but the key still has some value in it, and it is an insurance to leave it in the mausoleum" Yakumo Zi looked at the thousands of miles of territory in the enchantment, and thought about it, "How did the original few people become what they are now?"

There is one thing she doesn't have to mention to others, the Nine Heart Lock is a treasure made after digging out her heart, and the person who loses the heart will be indifferent to everything, that should be born from her own hands, but the person who constructed this enchantment for her did it first, and it has also fallen to the point where it is today, so the soul is defenseless, and the end of not knowing what is fused with it is only a dead end

-- Her fuel is the life of the other person
