Chapter 139: Where is the Magical Codex?
Over there, Mingzi was escorted back to the position where he was lying down just now by Xiao Wu, but this time he didn't resist, but his arms were still stretched out in front of him, trying to reach the cell door.
His hands trembled, and he was still muttering something very quietly in his mouth.
Why did the whole person go crazy overnight?
The change was too fast, and Xiao Wu really couldn't figure it out, so he could only lean his head over again to listen to what Mingzi was saying.
"Out of ...... Out of ......"
Go out? Are you saying it?
Still thinking about going out after all this?
"Be honest! Don't think about going out! Xiao Wu unceremoniously interrupted Mingzi's words: "They all confessed, you are an accomplice, you can't escape." ”
Xiao Wu's words seemed to completely shatter Akiko's last bit of hope.
It's a pity that the heavens don't fulfill people's wishes.
I thought that Akiko would at least stop for a while, but I didn't expect that he was just recovering his strength, which would intensify and writhe his body and struggle outside the cell.
In order to prevent Mingzi from escaping, Xiao Wu's two hands at this time were on Mingzi's shoulders and controlled him tightly.
Cheng Xiaoxiao could clearly see that Mingzi's breathing was very disordered now.
But now he is in a much better state than just now, and since he woke up, he has not been as lifeless as before.
Compared with the gray face when he was in a coma at the beginning, the weather-beaten face returned to its original darkness, only the lips were still slightly white, and if you looked closely, there was still a trace of abnormal whiteness hidden under the dark complexion.
This kind of Mingzi is really different from the state of Xiao Wu when he got along with him before.
"I'm going to ...... Go! Mingzi will change his mind and stare at Cheng Xiaoxiao, Cheng Xiaoxiao has been watched by Mingzi, and his whole body feels hairy.
"Still going out?"
Xiao Wu's attachment to Akiko doesn't know what to say.
He had no choice but to squat down in front of Akiko again, and asked as if talking to himself: "What is it for, you must go out?" ”
Get out?
Was there something out there that attracted him?
Cheng Xiaoxiao felt that this matter was a bit eyebrow-raising.
After all, she used to watch a lot of different types of movies when she was lying at home eating fries and watching dramas.
Akiko's current dignity is obviously different from ordinary people, maybe he is some kind of ghost thing that has been controlled by someone.
Cheng Xiaoxiao's mind was opened, thinking that there was a mysterious black-robed man in the depths of the invisible darkness who was controlling Mingzi in front of them with the silk thread in his hand, and if he moved, Mingzi moved.
Belch......
Cheng Xiaoxiao was successfully frightened by her own brain supplement, and Chu Yunshen felt the suddenly frightened lion cat in her arms, and she didn't know what she saw or what.
I had to gently stroke the fur on the lion cat's back, trying to give the lion cat some comfort.
Xiao Wu didn't answer what he said, and several people suddenly fell into an eerie silence.
Cheng Xiaoxiao didn't want to be in a hurry here, she kept twisting and turning in Chu Yunshen's arms, so she wanted to go over and take a closer look at Mingzi, in case Mingzi really had a hidden puppet thread.
How can the lion cat beat Chu Yunshen, who is strong in martial arts, Cheng Xiaoxiao was still confronting him with his heart, and Mingzi, who was sitting in the corner, suddenly spoke.
"Let me out...... I beg you......"
He didn't know why his voice was now sharp and harsh, but the pronunciation of each word was unfluctuating, like the electronic sound of a broken machine.
I'm afraid it's not a robot......
Cheng Xiaoxiao thought of the brain supplement she had just made, and there was another chill, and she couldn't help but tremble again.
Chu Yunshen had no choice but to continue to comfort the lion cat in his arms, and he didn't know what was wrong with this cat, he was so timid today.
Xiao Wu, who was the only one online, was a little relieved when he heard Ming Ziken speak.
After all, as long as you can speak, you are not afraid of asking nothing.
Chu Yunshen looked at Mingzi lying on the ground with a solemn expression, and said with doubts:
"What are you out for? Just trying to stay alive? ”
It's a pity that Mingzi just spoke, his eyes couldn't focus at all, he just looked at a certain place and repeated over and over again:
"Please, let me out...... I'm going to die......"
"The case hasn't been investigated yet...... You're not going to die. ”
Cheng Xiaoxiao had something else in her heart.
She didn't see any scars on Mingzi's body just now, it seems that Chu Yunshen and they didn't torture Mingzi.
She can probably know that Xiao Wu mistakenly thought that Mingzi was afraid that they would torture him to extract a confession, but Xiao Wu hadn't seen a future horror movie!
Of course, he didn't know that Akiko, as a 'puppet', would be directly 'abandoned' by his 'master' if he didn't rush back in time.
Cheng Xiaoxiao said that she can now understand Mingzi's 'cannon fodder' mentality.
But think about it the other way, if you follow Akiko's line, won't you know who the manipulator behind him is?
Cheng Xiaoxiao couldn't help but 'make trouble' again, she really wanted to help Chu Yunshen.
It's a pity that she couldn't attract Chu Yunshen's attention this time, because Mingzi finally said something different, and his words not only shocked Xiao Wu, but even Chu Yunshen frowned and changed his usual indifference.
"If I don't go to the mass grave to absorb the yin qi, I'll die! Please let me go! ”
These words are simply 'snapping' Cheng Xiaoxiao's face.
Isn't it going to be killed by the 'manipulators'?
How did it become the absorption of yin qi? How can a living person absorb yin qi!
It's a pity that Cheng Xiaoxiao didn't consider the previous speculations that were originally her own.
"I'm willing to tell you everything I know, as long as you promise me to go back to the mass grave."
Mingzi was still trying to fight for his own interests, and Xiao Wu made Mingzi lose his voice with a direct sentence.
"You are not qualified to negotiate terms with us, you can only survive if you explain everything."
As soon as Mingzi heard this, she opened her mouth wide for a long time and couldn't return to her senses.
It is rare to see Xiao Wu's tough side, Cheng Xiaoxiao is a little dazed.
After Xiao Wu finished speaking, he changed his previous anxiety, and now he didn't stare at Mingzi anymore, but retreated to Chu Yunshen's side and watched Chu Yunshen touch the lion cat.
Chu Yunshen also glanced at Xiao Wu sideways, and neither of them spoke.
What a trick to retreat into advance!
Cheng Xiaoxiao looked around to see this and that, and when she looked at Mingzi, she found that Mingzi was sitting in the corner nervously, and wanted to open her mouth several times, but she endured it one by one.
The longer the few people were silent, the more Akiko felt that she was about to suffocate.
Finally, he couldn't help it.
Cheng Xiaoxiao saw Mingzi hesitate for a long time, and finally stood up from that corner.
His pace was fast and steady, and it didn't take a few steps to get close to Chu Yunshen.
The closer Mingzi got to this side, the more Cheng Xiaoxiao could see the black qi scurrying around on his body.
No way!
Can't let him come!
Cheng Xiaoxiao pretended to be scared, and drilled deep into Chu Yunshen's arms, just wanting to hide.
Chu Yunshen saw the lion cat in his arms being unwarranted for fear of Mingzi, and he believed some of Mingzi's words in disguise.
After all, animals are more psychic, and their own lion cats are even more spiritual.
"Just stand there and say it!" , Chu Yunshen really stopped Mingzi's pace of wanting to move forward.
Akiko didn't think much about it, just stood in the middle of the cell and began to tell her story:
"My name is actually Zhong Ming, and I heard my father say that our ancestors once had an immortal surnamed Zhong."
Zhong Ming's beginning attracted Cheng Xiaoxiao, and she even wanted to guess whether Zhong Ming's ancestor was Zhong Kui.
It's a pity that her guess was broken again, and Zhong Ming's next words had nothing to do with Zhong Kui, who was catching ghosts.
"I have been weak and sickly since I was a child, and my father calculated for me that I would not live more than five years according to my constitution at that time."
Zhong Ming's puffy eyes flashed with tenderness when he talked about these things, and he gradually fell into his own memories: "That Immortal Dao Ancestor once left a codex that recorded how to renew my life, so my mother begged my father to use the method to renew my life. ”
Wait a minute.
Where did such a magical codex come from.
Isn't black and white impermanence imperceptible?
Besides, changing one's life and renewing one's life doesn't sound like something that Immortal Dao would do.
Cheng Xiaoxiao was skeptical of Mingzi's words.
How did Zhong Ming know that the cat in Chu Yunshen's arms could still understand his own words, he just said his own:
"The way to continue my life is not difficult, that is, let me absorb the yin qi on the corpse of the dead every once in a while."
As Zhong Ming said more and more, Chu Yunshen's expression became more and more solemn.
Xiao Wu held back for a long time just to uncover the mysterious veil on Mingzi's body, so as to see what he was pretending to be a ghost.
I didn't expect that after the dense fog was cleared layer by layer, such a story would be excavated.
"So you've been absorbing yin qi on the mass grave? Do you know what happened to the missing corpse man? ”
Hearing Xiao Wu's question, Zhong Ming nodded and shook his head:
"I don't know. My method is only for the dead, not for the living. ”
Zhong Ming's expression was very natural, and even Cheng Xiaoxiao could see that what he just said was the truth, without the slightest lie.
It's just that in this way, isn't Chu Yunshen's case still unsolved?
Those corpses still don't know why they disappeared!
"However, I have been unable to absorb yin qi before, so I can only absorb very little at a time."
Fortunately, Zhong Ming seemed to remember something, and added a lot:
"After that, I searched for many places in the mass graves, and finally found a place where the yin qi could be multiplied, and I have been absorbing it there until now."
"I think there's something weird about that place." Zhong Ming struggled to remember what he found at the foot of another mountain in the mountains: "I just don't know if this will be related to the disappearance." ”
He didn't know why he thought of this, but it was a very evil place, unlike any other place in the mountains.
"Oh? Where's the weirdness? Chu Yunshen heard Zhong Ming's words, and motioned for him to continue with interest.
"There's a village surrounded by mountains next door! What village would dare to be so bold as to build in that kind of place. ”
"Where is this deserted village?"
Finally found out something different, Xiao Wu excitedly motioned to Zhong Ming to hurry up.
"The deserted village can be reached from the other foot of the mass grave."
Zhong Ming's memory is not bad, and he quickly gave this approximate location.
It's just a village surrounded by mountains, Cheng Xiaoxiao has never heard of it.
Don't say it's him, Xiao Wu and Chu Yunshen are seeing each other for the first time.
