Chapter 15: Drink! Drink it up!!
"Isn't it? According to you, this potion is still very famous, isn't it? Gu Cheng was suspicious for a while, and felt that the mummy seemed to like to joke too.
And this cold joke is not funny at all. No matter how terrible this potion is, the old ghost of the mummy is not unaware of his own characteristics, why didn't he bring it up at the beginning?
Now he took the initiative to talk about him.
I feel more and more that this old guy seems to want to persuade himself to give up because of the price.
Looking at Gu Cheng's skeptical gaze, the old ghost of the mummy also knew that your actions were too much.
After all, it is better to save a little, and there are a few materials that are really not cheap.
"But seriously! Brother. This potion caused quite a stir at the time. Originally, the inventor of this potion was stolen for some reason, and in the end, he was framed to death.
With a strong resentment, this potion has undergone an unknown change because of this. The mummy seemed to remember some things from that year, and couldn't help but tremble a little.
"The man cursed before he died that anyone who drank this potion would turn into a monster. It is not until all the people he kills are slaughtered that these people will attain true liberation from death. ”
Gu Cheng also folded his tongue for a while when he heard it, it seemed that the person who invented this clown appearance was not simple.
"And then?"
"Later? What happens later? As he cursed, everyone who took the Joker's potion turned into monsters. It wasn't until one day that the guy who killed the man and his family were all wiped out, and those monsters turned into balloons and burst into brilliant fireworks in the air.
The potion was then abandoned, as the person who drank it had nothing to gain other than exploding his head and turning into a balloon.
Of course, it's not all right.
There are always a few special people like you who want to try. However, most of them are not in a good situation. Some have gone insane, others have become the living dead! ”
"Heh, what then? How long has this been happening? ”
Gu Cheng felt that the mummy seemed to know too much about this matter, as if all this was a thrilling performance that had happened in front of him.
This is very abnormal.
"About a dozen years ago, when I just crawled out. It was the first and last case of an inventor of a potion formula being violated. Since then, no one has dared to violate the bottom line of this group of crazy people. ”
The mummy sighed a few words and directly said a secret that was not big or small.
Listening to his accent, there seems to be some schadenfreude, and I don't know if it is a moment of silence for those who speculate, or because they have written a bloody lesson for those who come after them.
explained the stakes to Gu Cheng, but it did not have any corresponding effect.
With a sigh, the mummy store manager began to equip the potion.
The production process is very simple.
At least, Gu Cheng felt that he had learned it by watching from the sidelines.
Heat the cauldron with a fire that burns each item directly into powder or liquid.
Pour into the test tube in turn, and you're done.
Bidding farewell to the mummy shopkeeper, Gu Cheng had no intention of drinking medicine on the spot from him.
After all, the potion is in the stomach, and it has a lot of unknown reactions to the body, and there will be no safer place than your own cave.
Holding the red potion bottle, Gu Cheng's mind was filled with the bewitching sound of an ugly rag doll.
"Drink it, quick~~, drink it."
Gu Cheng: "......"
Ignoring the demagogy of the voodoo doll, he made his way back to his tomb very carefully.
Fortunately, there was no such nonsense as a halfway robbery on the road.
Swallowing the saliva that didn't exist in his mouth, Gu Cheng took this opportunity to calm his heart that had been bumpy along the way.
took out the bottle of hope that carried his own strengthening potion from his bosom, and it was also the result of his great risk in the past month.
Holding it in front of the mirror, Gu Cheng wanted to see its specific attributes. The process of making a mummy ghost is really a bit rudimentary, which is really reassuring.
Gu Cheng brought it back and took it again, somewhat because of this reason.
Special Item: Clown Potion (aka Maniac Potion)
Function: It can stimulate the obsession in your body and trigger a series of uncertain changes.
Description: It is a potion cursed by its inventor. The conditions for taking it are very harsh. Not only does it have a strong curse resistance, but it also needs to have an extremely strong inner personality.
(PS1: The inner personality must be opposed to the superficial personality, otherwise it is very likely that you will be permanently addicted to the illusion after taking it.) )
(PS2: The essence of every potion is a means of self-help for the dying strong, accept the gift, and the unknown strong enemy is born, be cautious!!) )
Gu Cheng looked at this explanation and was surprised and delighted. As expected, the annotations given by this mirror are much more detailed than what the old ghost said.
But what the hell is that inner personality? And it also needs to be opposed to the superficial personality, which ,,,
Could this be the inconsistency between the legend and the outside?
Hypocrite-specific potions?
Note 2 seems to have been mentioned by no one, and I don't know if it's good or bad?
What can I do? Is it to drink or not?
Gu Cheng was a little hesitant, after all, the mirror had already given a detailed note. But the concept of the superficial and inner personality is not very clear to itself.
Do you need to drink a wave of self-hypnosis before drinking?
He shook his head and looked at the medicine in his hand for a long time.
Gu Cheng thought about it a lot, from the illusion he experienced in his birth, to the non-stop drinking of curse potions this month. Isn't all this just to keep getting stronger and pursue your own ideals?
Obsession perhaps, for Gu Cheng, is the ideal.
People have no ideals, what is the difference between them and salted fish? So as a zombie with no obsession, what kind of zombie is it?
The road to becoming stronger will always be full of adventures and twists and turns. There is no turning back when he draws the bow, he has been preparing for so long, no matter where he says, he should not give up at this point.
Isn't it the inner personality?
Even if you don't meet the conditions, you're not 100% in a fantasy world.
As for the strong enemy, hehe~, now they are all struggling, how can there be so much kung fu?
Fight!!
After resting for the night and recuperating his spirits, Gu Cheng began his adventurous action.
The red potion poured into his mouth, and Gu Cheng's first feeling was unexpectedly sweet.
Then there was an irrepressible feeling of nausea, and without waiting for Gu Cheng to spit out something, he directly began to lie down on the corpse.
In the place where Gu Cheng couldn't see, he was already unconscious, and his whole body was covered with layers of red silk, weaving a huge blood cocoon together.
And above this blood cocoon, at this moment, there is a phantom of a clown standing. On the camouflage-like face, the pupils that were like substance stared at Gu Cheng quietly!
A funny smile that slipped to the root of his ears suddenly appeared on the clown's face, a silent smile that affected the silence around him.
The temperature around them seemed to be warmed up by this smile. It was a temperature of passion that burst out from the depths of the heart.
Just as the temperature was about to spread throughout the stone room, the mirror embedded in the wall emitted a black light, directly isolating the blood cocoon from the objects in the real room.
The invincibility of the safe house against the owner of the Crypt has been enabled. But this is not much help for the predicament that Gu Cheng is about to face.
The curse power contained in the potion, Gu Cheng, who had been baptized by the curse potion many times, didn't pay much attention to it anymore. The only thing that scared him was the so-called permanent illusion problem.
Saying that, Gu Cheng drank the potion, dizzy for a while, and directly lost the control of his body.
Waking up again, Gu Cheng only felt that he had once again returned to the days when he was in the Blue Star. I was reduced to a background board that couldn't be moved, and this time it was just a different person.
Martin Gilsar, who plays a clown.
Oh no, not yet.
Today, Martin Gilsar is just a street beggar who picks up garbage for a living.
Until one day, he was kidnapped to the circus by a guy with a fat belly. He originally hoped to end the tragic encounter, but he did not realize that he came to another even more terrible place.
Every day, the circus owner's whip was relentlessly whipped on him. forced him to put a smile on his lips all the time, because this could please the audience and the old man.
That's where Martin's value lies.
The circus owner also forced Martin to learn various vaudeville tricks. The more dangerous and exciting it is, the more skilled it needs to be mastered.
However, to Gu Cheng's surprise, although he was possessed by Martin, he still couldn't find out how those magical tricks were completed.
This is simply incredible. According to Gu Cheng's perception, this guy's physical fitness is not much different from his own.
Gu Cheng was not so bored this time because he had questions, and chose to watch silently, as if he had forgotten that this was a dangerous illusion.
Or rather, the power of the illusion made him subconsciously ignore this.
Day after day, Martin's skills have become more and more proficient. Soon he became the number one in the circus, and every time he performed, it was full of people and cheers.
Martin, the stiff smile on the clown's face was forced to laugh bigger and bigger, as narrow and funny as if he had been cut by a knife.
As the circus kept touring and performing, the days went by quickly.
Gu Cheng could feel that the guy he possessed this time, the depressive aura on his body became more and more obvious. Although the smile still hangs on his face every day, that far-fetched, that kind of stagnant eyes has already betrayed him.
There is no end to performances and whippings, and there is no free circus, which is as disgusting as Martin the Clown.
After a performance, the Joker Martin suddenly had the idea of escaping the circus.
But its weak and timid personality firmly limited him.
He didn't dare, years of whipping had taught him to put on shackles and learn to obey the arrangement.
He didn't run away, so he prepared for the next performance as usual. Nothing seemed to happen, and the circus didn't make any waves because of an unexpected idea from the Joker.
However, the clown's heart was like a subtle flame touching the dry wood, and it was already burning,,,,
