Du Youlan looked at me, it was a strange and complicated expression, or maybe the expression itself was not strange, it was only strange that the expression appeared on her face. Because of all the things I have done before, maybe I have never treated her as a normal person.

But now......

Anyway, I ended up saying something to make her happy. Although I don't know why the word "beg" makes her care so much. Sometimes I'm curious. Curious about Wei Heng, curious about his story with Du Youlan. But I didn't dare to be too curious, because I would also be afraid, afraid that I would really become him in the process of them repeatedly mentioning it.

At the end of the day, I'm still afraid of losing myself.

No matter from which angle and in which direction.

"You're such a boring person." That rare expression finally dissipated on Du Youlan's face, she looked at the black sand slowly left on my body, and said, "It's almost okay, it's dying." ”

Although the Black Sand Warrior attacked me, I really didn't intend to kill him completely.

The rest of the black sand was concentrated by me, and in the black sand, something in the shape of a skull appeared, but the face was not a flesh skeleton, nor black armor, but a human head, the appearance of an old man with a bald head and white beard. I guess this is probably the stupid old man that the couple mentioned.

"It seems that you have not disappeared, but have turned to dust and hid in a wooden house."

"Don't ...... Don't kill me. He was a little slurred, he looked a little stupid, and what I didn't expect was that he was so quick to beg me for mercy, "I, I, I don't want to die...... I don't want to die! ”

Kill him or not, I don't care about why he doesn't want to die or his story, I just want to be sure of one thing now, and that is that the information in his head is completely incomplete.

So I asked, "The person during the day, I mean Zuo Yuan, you should know each other, right?" But I'm guessing you're not the kid's grandfather. Of course it doesn't matter, the point is that there's something hidden under the cabin, right? ”

"I ...... I do not know. His eyes were dumbfounded, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

I raised my left hand and slashed the palm with the nail of my thumb, my blood was full of worm poison, and a drop of it would slowly devour the black worm poison that made up his body, and it would be hellish torture for him, and he would eventually be sent to hell.

"Don't ...... Don't do that, we'...... It's all ...... Worm ......"

"It seems that you understand quite well, and you are not pure stupid. So, answer my question directly. ”

"Right...... Something hidden! You're right! That's right......" he responded.

"What is hidden?" I continued to ask.

"I don't know, I don't know."

The palm of my bleeding left hand gradually approached his forehead, and although it had not yet been touched, the old man shouted frantically: "I really don't know, I really don't know!" ”

My hand didn't fall in the end.

While I'm not sure if he's telling the truth or not, the question itself isn't really critical.

"Then put this question first, I have another question, but what about this question, you have no choice, if you can't answer it or don't know, you have to die. And I'm going to let you die slowly, you know that death is a momentary thing, and it's not scary to think about it. The truly terrifying thing is the process of getting closer to it. ”

With that, my hand slowly approached his forehead, and at the same time, I continued to ask, "I only dug up a rock down there, and broke a lot, but I didn't see what I wanted to see." Since you've said that there's something down there, why don't you tell me how to find it? Can you tell me? ”

"I, I'm ......" he stared at my palm.

I took a look and saw that the wound had healed, so I slashed it open again, and the new wound, the blood flowed out and almost dripped directly into his mouth and nose.

He was so frightened that his head was covered in sweat, "Don't, don't kill me...... I, I want to think about it......"

"You think slowly." My hand continued to approach.

"Don't, don't! No! I beg you, I just don't want to die, now I don't even know who I am, the only thing I know is not wanting to die...... Or, you wait for me to dream, kill me, let me know it, let me be free!! ”

He screamed frantically and banged his head on the ground in an attempt to stun himself.

I don't understand what the intention of this self-deception is, and I don't bother to think about it, the other hand straightens his head, and the five fingers of the left hand support its forehead, and the fingers are forceful, and the palm is already infinitely close!!

"Ahh After a scream, my mouth was finally pried open, "I said! I said! ”

……

It turned out that I was very close to the answer, and the old man told me that there was a special stone gate made of special rock under the stone layer, which was extremely strong. As long as you smash all the ordinary rocks in the upper layer, you can see it. And there is a mechanism on top of the stone door, which he can unlock.

This last sentence should be true, this is the last condition for his life.

So, I turned into a worm and smashed all the rocks in the first layer, and sure enough, I saw two halves of the stone door, one on the left and one on the right, which were densely carved with finger-thick lines, and I couldn't see what was being painted, but it inexplicably gave people a sense of harmonious beauty, as if each track should have appeared in the place where it was carved.

"It's a bit like the Mi family's tricks." Du Youlan came to me and squatted down, slender fingers, gently stroking those lines, "It's a lock, and it's a little complicated." ”

I turned my head and my gaze fell on the rotten head, "Show your talent, old man." ”

"I, I'm actually ......"

"You want to say you don't know?"

"No, I just said, I'm probably going to die too...... Can you, can you help me ......"

"Don't say you're going to die now."

He is not a man to negotiate terms, whether it is the disappearance of the previous couple or the cases of the past decades.

I had no intention of keeping this thing alive.

However, I really didn't want him to die so soon......

That's right, he died, and just as he was about to open his mouth to say how to open the stone door, several red threads suddenly appeared above his head. I've seen that thing, when Zuo Yuan killed the Hell Locusts.

The blood-colored silk thread split this guy's skull in an instant, and then, a blood-colored droplet of water was born at the end of the silk thread, and the blood droplets coagulated, ruptured, and gave birth to a bloody Gu. Before that thing could turn into black sand, it was corroded into a puddle of sauce by the Blood Gu, and it died a miserable death.

The blood-colored thread retreated along the ground, I stared at it, slowly looked up as it went away, and saw that in the woods opposite, Zuo Yuan walked out alone.

Sure enough, he still came, and the white strip of cloth on the right side of his body flew up at this moment, like a deadly poisonous snake in the moonlight, wrapped around his body.

I patted Du Youlan on the head: "I'll leave it to you." ”

"You said the mechanism?"

"Is there anything else you need to do?" I asked rhetorically.

"It doesn't work out."

I smiled, "Honestly, if it were you, maybe it would have unraveled faster than the dead man's head just now." ”

I am fascinated by confidence in this woman.

But she didn't seem to disappoint me.

After saying that, I turned around and walked towards Zuo Yuan. During the time before Du Youlan unlocked the stone gate, I had to hold him back. To be honest, I'm fascinated by his strength, not only now, but also before. What he showed at that time must not have been all he had.

After all, he was Du Youlan's disciple.

"I knew you were coming." I stopped, and at this moment I was about fifteen meters away from Zuo Yuan, which was not close, but for him and me, it was actually not far.

"Then you really shouldn't come." He smiled coldly, and the strips of cloth wrapped around his right side flew even harder, and I could vaguely see something, under those strips. At this time, he stretched out his left hand, grabbed the strip of cloth, and lifted it open!!

At that moment, I was sure that Zuo Yuan was indeed very different from before.

His skull was full of flesh, and the half-faced skeleton was healed!

"What the hell have you been through?" So I became even more curious.

"I don't know what you're talking about, but there's a question I want to ask." He stepped along.

I moved forward at the same time," asked. ”

"Have we fought in the past?"

"For the first time."

"Then I really don't want to kill you." As soon as the words fell, countless blood-colored hairs suddenly appeared on the right half of my body, which rushed towards me like a tidal wave, and in an instant, my body was completely enveloped.

Then the hair was bleeding, and the blood droplets turned into insect chrysalis, the pupae broke, and the blood Gu was overwhelming!!

But he died in an instant!

Zuo Yuan stared at the insect corpse on the ground, the corners of his eyes were withdrawn, the hair was still dancing in the air, but his eyes were staring at my impenetrable body that was bound by a pair of tentacles.

I took off my guard and showed my face, "Although we haven't fought head-on, I have experienced you little worm." ”

"You...... Can it be adapted? Or rather, evolution? ”

Therefore, he is Zuo Yuan, Du Youlan's proud disciple. Just one word, one face, and I speak of my ability.

I didn't respond, I exerted force under my feet, my body rose into the air, my mouth spit out tentacles, and I shook my waist and feet to wrap it in an instant, in terms of speed, he was indeed too slow, not that he didn't have the intention of dodging my attack, but that he really couldn't dodge.

I didn't give him a chance, and the next moment, I used my tentacles to penetrate his body at various angles!

It is true that I need to find the boy's grandfather, and Zuo Yuan must have a close connection with him, but this may not necessarily require Zuo Yuan to do this. So if there is a chance to kill him, I will be happier.

His body was penetrated, his eyes widened, and he looked at me with difficulty: "You ......"

But I didn't listen to his last lines, the tentacles flung in all directions, and Zuo Yuan's body turned into pieces of flesh and blood in an instant!

"Goodbye, prey." The tentacles slowly retracted, and I actually didn't believe it, but it was true.

I turned around and walked over to Du Youlan, about to ask her how the door was doing.

But at that moment, there was a sudden rustling sound behind me.

I realized that something was wrong, and my footsteps gradually stopped, but before I could turn back, Zuo Yuan's ghostly voice appeared in my ears again: "Do you know, prey is not always hunted, there are many hunters in this world, because they chose the wrong hunting target, they became prey instead." ”
