Chapter 174: One, Two, Three Doors
Temptation is useful to everyone, but everyone can withstand the temptation very differently, for example, some people love beauty, some people love money, some people love power, and in this seven-city world, what everyone admires the most is strength, whether it is evil or righteous, as long as there is enough strength, you have everything.
In fact, in this bustling interface that carries the seven cities, it seems to be glorious, but in fact it is extremely dark.
Looking at the six-pointed star throne high above, Mo Xiao smiled slightly, if it was before, she might have tried to get close to that throne, but now, there is a person who has a thought, but she is willing to give up these.
Away from the throne without any hesitation, Mo Xiao explained to the people in the shadows: "There is nothing on the throne except strength, if you want it, go and sit on it yourself." ”
"Hehe, I'm just a door in the forbidden land, why do you want this?" Mo Xiao's answer made the voice very satisfied.
As soon as the sound ended, Mo Xiao noticed that a door appeared in front of her eyes, and it was so dark that she couldn't see anything clearly.
But her instincts told her that she could only move forward at this time, unless she wanted to turn back and continue to ascend to the throne of the six-pointed star.
Hesitantly stepped through the door, and in the blink of an eye, she was in the endless darkness, unable to see her fingers, but her hearing became inexplicably sensitive at this time.
"Children of the Mo family, how could nothing come to my endless darkness?" Before Mo Xiao could observe everything around him, the voice suddenly sounded.
Listening to the meaning of that voice, it seemed to say that the people of the Mo family should not appear here.
For this reason, Mo Xiao couldn't help but be curious.
"I don't know which senior is here, Mo Xiao doesn't know why he is here, if the seniors can know a thing or two, I hope the seniors will teach." Respectfully arched her hand, although the world of the Seven Cities is still being scientifically transformed in the process of gradually becoming mysterious, but Mo Wen once taught her that there are still many hidden powerhouses hidden around the Seven Cities, and they are very concerned about those complicated etiquette.
"How could you not know? This is the forbidden place of the Palace of the Grim Reaper, and all eighteen doors are closed. The voice was surprised.
Mo Xiao wanted to ask again, but the voice changed his tone and said, "That's it, since the descendants of my Mo family want to pass through these eighteen dead doors, then you can find a way to break through my second door by yourself." ”
"Could it be that the predecessor is the ancestor of the Mo family?" Mo Xiao was slightly startled.
Although the Mo family is a veritable nobleman in Phantom City, it is all because of the names of Mo Wen and Liu Qingshan, but the careers of the two of them at the beginning are not enough to reach the wealth that the Mo family has now.
However, her guess was not certain, she wanted to get the words from the owner of the voice, but the voice did not sound at all, no matter what she said, the voice did not respond.
Sighing in disappointment, knowing that his self-control would not be better than that of the Mo family's ancestors, Mo Xiao closed his mouth and thought hard about how to pass the test.
Now, she knew that she had entered the forbidden place of the Death Palace, and that all eighteen doors were closed, and that she had to pass eighteen levels to leave safely.
Before, just the temptation of the first level, she almost said, I really don't know what kind of terrible test exists in the back door.
Thinking of this, Mo Xiao couldn't help but sigh, and at this moment, she was surprised to find that the place under her feet began to vibrate, just like the reaction caused by some kind of geological activity recorded in the Seven Cities.
"Oops." With a low curse, Mo Xiao patted his head.
She was only thinking about her own affairs just now, since she had forgotten the most basic vigilance, in this endless darkness, no one knew what dangers existed, if she was still as lax as before, I am afraid that she would not know how she would die in the end.
Knowing that it would not be beneficial to stay where she was any longer, Mo Xiao stepped forward cautiously, and only after making sure that there was no danger ahead, did she dare to raise her second foot, and so on, the feeling of vibration gradually disappeared, and Mo Xiao also slowly adapted to this darkness in the process of moving forward carefully.
What she couldn't accept was that after the voice stopped ringing, everything around her was quiet, invisibly creating a depressing atmosphere.
In order not to let himself be driven crazy by this quietness, Mo Xiao had to take the initiative to tell the voice who was not sure if it was his ancestor to tell "nonsense".
"Senior, I really want to get out alive, there are my family in the outside world, friends can even accompany me for a lifetime, so I must go out, otherwise they will all be sad."
"Of course, maybe they weren't as sad as I thought, after all, I've always been just an unlucky kid, but I really miss them, so I don't want to die unexplained, at least, I have to die outside, so that people can collect the body properly.
Maybe the seniors will be kind enough to help me collect the corpse, but it's a lot of trouble for the seniors, so I ......"
"Bang"
Before Mo Xiao's nonsense was finished, he tragically crashed into a hard wall, to be precise, it was a solid door.
Sitting on the ground, Mo Xiao rubbed her sore forehead aggrievedly, and wanted to complain, but she was worried that the voice would cause her some problems if she was angry, so she had to keep silent obediently, waiting for the door to open automatically.
"You said your name is Mo Xiao, so have you ever heard such a story?" After a long time, the door still did not open, but the voice rang.
"What kind of story, it can't be about the emperor." Mo Xiao said subconsciously.
Her name, of all the stories she had heard, was the only one that was even more relevant.
"It's not." The voice was stiff in denial.
Mo Xiao nodded symbolically, but he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
In her opinion, among the masters in the teahouse, it is good to have a relationship with anyone, but don't have anything to do with the emperor, unless your "sexual interest" is abnormal, or maybe you are as strong as Xiaoying and Qianji, and can make the emperor stand in the position of friends and go to the soup for them.
To tell the truth, he is really righteous to his friend Emperor, and he is unswervingly spoiled by his lover.
Mo Xiao thought about it for a long time, and then the voice spoke again: "A long, long time ago, all the interfaces were in a parallel state, and the earth interface that carried the Seven Cities was just one of the thousands of interfaces, at that time, the Seven Cities were very harmonious, and the city lord of the Phantom City was not surnamed Phantom, but surnamed Mo. ”
"Not really." Mo Xiao opened his mouth in surprise.
The title of the city lord is the most noble title of the seven cities, as long as it is on his own territory, no matter how many strong enemies he has come, as long as you give an order, there is still one person in the city, you can sit in the back and drink and enjoy yourself, of course, as the city lord of each city, you must be the most demonic one among the thousands of geniuses.
"When I first heard this story, I was even more surprised than you." said to Mo Xiao clearly.
Seeing that Mo Xiao had returned to normal, the voice continued: "The position of the city lord is hereditary most of the time, but there is always a time when the dynasty changes, so the last ancestor who was the city lord left such a sentence in the family - the descendants of the next generation, named Mo Xiao, came to the world with a six-pointed star, if his life does not change, he will definitely slaughter the Phantom City and snatch back the throne of the city lord." ”
"Ahem, is there really such bloody violence?" Mo Xiao muttered.
Get rid of it, she didn't think about killing people at all, if she really slaughtered the entire Phantom City with the blood of the six-pointed star, without waiting for Mo Wen or Phantom Xiuyu to wipe her out, she would give herself the result because she couldn't stand it.
So, it was a wise move for her to be able to give up the six-pointed star in the first door.
"If you can come to me, you should have given up the six-pointed star, the person who changed your life for you is really bold." The voice praised.
Mo Xiao hummed in her heart, "That's nature", after all, Xiaoying is her Mo Xiao's belief.
"But it's poor for the Mo family, if you pass the eighteen levels alive, you will definitely follow the one in this Death Palace, then the Mo family will never be able to reach the original height."
"You care about that?" Mo Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly and asked.
"Hehe, I'm just a door here, how can I care about that?" The voice asked rhetorically.
Mo Xiao frowned, the same disdainful tone, something similar she had heard when she was in the first door.
It's just that this time the voice said one more sentence: "It is you living people who should be concerned." ”
"Today's Mo family, the only real existence is me and my father, I don't care about this, and my father doesn't care about this." Mo Xiao explained.
Now she should care about Di Xiu, and more than 20 years ago, her father Mo Wen also chose to care about Liu Qingshan, rather than the false name of the prosperous world, otherwise he would not have quit the Black Eagle Special Service back then, and would have been a money-making chairman at home and in the company.
"It's okay if you don't care, you can get out." As if a matter of heart, the voice stiffened a little while relaxing.
Without waiting for Mo Xiao to scrutinize more, the darkness in front of him received a glimmer of light because of the open door.
Looking back, there was a melodious low roar in the endless darkness, Mo Xiao was startled, and hurriedly stepped into the third door, then in retrospect, she was surprised to find that the roar seemed to be one of the strange beasts, Mo Xiao remembered that she seemed to have seen the introduction of the strange beast, but now that she thought about it, she didn't remember it very clearly.
Fortunately, she was far from the danger of the second door, and now, she needed to be wary of the third door.
The scenery in this door is very ordinary, ordinary does not seem to exist in fantasy, but like the Jingshang Middle School where Mo Xiao studied before, it is a place that does not advocate cultivation, only promotes science and culture, but what makes Mo Xiao familiar is that there is no one here, just like the second door, quietly, making people feel depressed.
