Chapter Seventy-Eight: Zhao Gao
After Sang Xia led the demon upstairs, Meng Yi anxiously dragged Fusu to the side hall next to the living room.
"Why did my brother become like this? Fusu, don't you think that person is very strange, as if you have seen it somewhere?"
Fusu nodded approvingly, "It's really strange, you and I have never seen that face." He raised his eyebrows and looked up at Meng Yi and said softly, "Yi, don't you think, that person is very similar, Zhao Gao?!"
Meng Yi's low brows suddenly opened, his eyes widened and he shook his head, and nodded vigorously in an instant.
Indeed, such an unfamiliar face could not be connected with Zhao Gao.
But... But that look, that kind of posture, is exactly the same as the villain who lowered his eyebrows and pleasing his eyes all day long!
"I have an idea that needs to be confirmed. As he spoke, the airflow bottle containing Xu Xin's broken soul floated in from the window.
Before, in the Tide Calling Palace, Elder Ghana reminded the two of them before opening the Whale Fall Mirror that there was a high probability that the things seen in the Whale Fall Mirror were fleeting. Therefore, what can be seen and discovered is purely a matter of personal creation.
In a word, it depends on luck.
The first picture seen by the whale falling mirror was a dry time barrier, although it was a little blurry, but Fusu still recognized Bai Hefei in one of the moving suits. It seems that they are not the only ones who are not idle on this full moon night.
Fusu and Meng Yi, who had personally learned the power of the red mountain red stone, were very surprised why this phantom boy could walk freely, and what was even more strange was that there was a vague figure not far behind Bai Youfei.
Perhaps it was related to Shi Xuanxuan's search for Xiling River, and Meng Yi agreed with Fusu's speculation.
Before I had time to take a closer look at Bai and Fei's actions, the whale landing mirror swing angle changed the picture, and then there was a cold land covered with ice and snow, and the barren land blown by the strong wind...
At that moment of character fighting, when a faint red light appeared, Fusu finally saw what they wanted to see.
Originally, it was a naturally formed magic circle, which was used to absorb the resentment and evil thoughts of heaven and earth, and devour the energy of the dead soul.
It's like a tree hole with many secrets, a river of silt and dirt, and it doesn't do much harm in itself. But I don't know when someone discovered its mystery and used it to bring disaster to the world.
The glow of the Cave changes with the number of devouring souls, first grayish white, then light blue, then dark blue, until now the dark deep lake bottom, floating red light.
Meng Yi recognized at a glance that the red light was no different from the residual light in the enchantment of the underwater ancient city.
In the enchantment of the Dark Cave Circle on the bottom of Qiandao Lake illuminated by the whale falling mirror, the light was unknown, and only a Fang Ding ancient lamp was floating that was sometimes bright and dark.
A thin, medium-sized figure was revealed under the lamp, leaning slightly over his left shoulder.
The figure approached the ancient lamp as if to check something, and the faint light illuminated a strange face that had never been seen before. The young man's face was not pretty, but the most conspicuous thing was a scar that extended from his right ear to his neck.
The moment the picture disappeared, the man seemed to have discovered something, squinted his eyes, slanted his lips to the side, and smacked it, as if he was laughing.
Wicked laughter.
This look, this smile, in the past two thousand years, has never been deliberately remembered, and it has not been forgotten for a moment.
Memories go back and come back.
It was a dry winter day, and my father picked a congratulatory gift for Fusu to send to the Prime Minister's Mansion to celebrate his birthday.
The dinner was full of friends, and after greetings, the prime minister Li Si invited his son Fusu to the study to chat.
Although he is old but still has political ambitions, Xiangye openly and secretly tests the future successor of Daqin, and the young son does not shy away from talking about his thoughts and propositions on the pattern of the world, completely ignoring the increasingly dark old face.
Saying goodbye to Li Si, when he turned to leave, he inadvertently saw Zhao Gao, the commander of the CRRC Mansion standing outside the study, waiting.
The cold expression was treacherous and evil, this was Fusu's first memory of this smile.
At that time, he only felt that Fusu didn't like that face, that smile, and that person very much, but he didn't care.
These people who play with power tricks and have dark hearts are just flies and flies are just trying to make some small profits. Fusu pretends to be the world in his heart, and what he sees in his eyes is the livelihood of his children.
He didn't know what kind of situation the two people in the room had planned for the sake of the 'little profit' in his heart after turning around, and what he didn't expect was that when he saw that evil smile again, he had turned into a revenant.
The spirit of grief and resentment floated in the side hall of Xianyang Palace, listening to the conversation between the young brother and Zhao Gao. All the conspiracies and calculations have become a natural argument in Zhao Gao's mouth.
When that wicked smiling face reappeared, his brothers and sisters were dead.
His morning light, his most beloved sister, actually died in the alley, under the stone. The dead are broken bones, and the death is extremely miserable.
Centuries passed, and that smiling face once again opened the door to Fusu's memory with a bone-chilling memory, through the ruthless years.
Humiliation, pain, anger, unwillingness, and self-blame can be buried deep but not erased.
After hurriedly thanking the merman king, the two originally planned to go back to Runlu to discuss it immediately, but it didn't work out.........
"Childe, is ......this?" Xu Xin, who was awakened, looked at his appearance in disbelief.
He was pleasantly surprised to find that he was no longer the dotted outline that was only spliced by the dots of light, although it was only the vague shape of the upper body, but it was much better than before.
"The shark bead really has a miraculous effect on repairing the soul!" Meng Yi sighed.
Different from the previous crystal clear, at this time, the shark beads revolving around Xu Xin's remnant soul are emitting and changing all kinds of soft light.
"The spiritual power of the people of Ghana is in this bead all their lives, and I really don't know how to repay this generous gift. Fusu sighed in his heart.
Obviously, the shark bead is indeed a great benefit to Xu Xin's gods, and this extra gain is not guaranteed to be the key to finding the Disk Cave.
"How does the general feel? This is a shark pearl, which has the effect of repairing the soul. ”
"Xu Xin thanked the two benefactors, not only saved my life, but also found such a treasure... I feel better, not as confused and confused as I used to be. ”
"That's good. The general thought about it again in the past few hundred years, but there were still details that he did not remember when he was delirious before. ”
Xu Xin, who was beginning to take shape, looked honest, and his age when he died in battle was at most in his early twenties.
Terrible war, poor man.
“... One day, the people of Peking University collected the soul fragments refined in the furnace as usual. He sat by the stove and muttered something, and then argued with someone as if he were arguing with someone, but there was no one else in the cave but me. I thought it was weird at the time. Later, the Peking University people walked out scolding......"
He walked out and turned back shortly after. At that time, I called him, but he ignored me. I remember that he was walking differently than usual. He went to the stove and took out a bright bead that was shining with white light, and the light seemed to have some spell cast on it around the stove, and a layer of ice had formed beside the stove. ”
"Ice?" The Earth Poor Furnace is a hot thing that can heat all beasts in ancient times, and it can actually form a layer of cold ice.
Fusu couldn't think of any extremely cold thing with such a miraculous effect"... You say he walks differently than he usually does, how does it differ? What does he usually look like?"
Let's not think about the object for the time being, but first verify what is in mind.
"Usually, Peking University people usually ...... like this" Xu Xin thought about it, and it was extremely difficult to describe it, so he simply used his only half of his body to imitate a posture as much as possible.
Pulling the left shoulder, the left and right shoulders are not on a parallel line, and the appearance of one side high and one low is a little distorted.
"That's right, that's right, it's him, but why? Why not him?" Fusu muttered to himself.
"What are you talking about? What is him, not him? Who is it?" Meng Yi scratched his ears and cheeks in a hurry.
"Then what was he like when he turned back?" Fusu didn't answer Meng Yi's question, and after a few seconds of silence, he turned to ask the phantom Xu Xin.
"It's just like normal, just like that" Xu Xin straightened his left shoulder and straightened his waist, "I've never seen a Peking University man like this, he has always twisted his shoulders like that." ”
Fusu patted Meng Yi on the back, knowing that his heart was slightly tight, and then asked Xu Xin, "Think about it again, the General Meng who was cursed by him." ”
"Shadows...... I really haven't seen him in front of him. But there were a few times when he seemed to be crazy, and he was locked up on the other side by the Peking University people and howled ghosts. The Peking University people still muttered something 'still unwilling!'' 'It's so tenacious that I can't wash away the soul!' Once after the two fought, the Peking University people also said: Sooner or later, I will kill you again!"
...... The moon is sinking in the west, and the fog is misty.
"There is a shark bead to protect the spirit, the general should recuperate!"
After Fusu put away the airflow bottle, he pushed open the side door and walked to the front yard, not far from the mountains and forests, the birds were startled by the morning light and fluttered their wings and flew up in a daze.
There was no moment in the sky of countless mornings that made him feel brighter than this.
"It's him" sat down on the wooden chair in the front yard, and Fusu said quietly in a deep voice, "Zhao Gao." ”
"You mean, the person in the Panying Cave is Zhao Gao?" Meng Yi sat opposite Fusu, thinking about the mysterious man he saw in the whale falling mirror, "But he, his posture and appearance, are not the same person at all." ”
"Yes, I'm just skeptical. But Xu Xin gave me the answer. ”
"It's him! It's unclear why he changed, but it must have been him. Maybe what is the effect of the Hellish Cave that can make him possess him for a long time, or something else, in short, the person who the whale falls into the mirror must be him!"
"What about the eldest brother? Why did the eldest brother ......" Why did Meng Tian get mixed up with Zhao Gao? Meng Yi was puzzled, and Fusu understood what he didn't say.
"Think about it, the Peking University is Zhao Gao, so what does he mean by being unwilling?"
Yes, what are you unwilling to do? What does it mean that you can't wash away your soul? What did Meng Tian go through?
Since Zhao Gao said that sooner or later he would kill him again, this was enough to prove that they were not conspiring. Meng Yi, don't come in a hurry, it's almost time, we will find him soon. ”
Meng Yi looked at Fusu's silent and determined appearance, and the original anxiety in his heart gradually dissipated with the morning light, and the sky was bright.
The two looked at each other and looked up with a long sigh of relief. Yes, it's near.
In times of great events, there needs to be calm.
The closer you get, the more you can't rush, and that's true when you march and fight, especially when facing a powerful enemy.
