Season 1: Awakening from the Cold and Escaping Slightly Chapter 80: Demon Soul Lock, Spirit Prison Dungeon (1)
In 2520, the city of Frozen City
I'm Ling Wei, a potacist with little skills, and an ordinary woman who has lost all her memories of the past since I woke up in a cave. The first person I saw was also the first man I saw, and he said his name was Du Heng. I finally used the last bit of my ability to save Duheng when a very bad alien killed us, and I was willing to go with Vola as long as they let go of the overbalance.
Why did I save him, you ask? Because he may be the only surviving Chinese medicine practitioner in this world, so that Chinese medicine will not be lost. Because he is tall and handsome, it is possible that he will be the only beautiful man in this world who has survived, so that the excellent genes of human beings will not be lost; Because he understands acupuncture, he may also be the only earthling in the world who can use acupuncture to deal with these bad aliens, so that acupuncture is retained, because; Because he likes to joke and make a lot of noise, it energizes me, a person who likes to be quiet, because, because, there are many more, because, I love him.
Vora used its alien powers to pull my spirit out of my body, and I was completely unconscious as my soul was held in his hands.
Since I experienced the sudden awakening of no memory, no consciousness, no everything, and then I suddenly woke up, and I, who even needed to be told my name, felt that there was no difference between being there and having it.
I woke up in a burst of pain, and when I opened my eyes, I found myself confined to a platform at the top of a stone wall, and when I looked down at the cliff at my feet, and there were some people like me who were also tied to the stone wall, and when I struggled to break free of the yellow cloth that bound me to the platform, there was a beautiful woman tied to the stone wall under the left diagonal slope, and said to me, "Don't move, don't struggle, it's a charm, and you can't open it as a spirit." Besides, if you get it open, you won't fall down and die. ”
I looked at her suspiciously and asked, "Where is this?" ”
"Soul Prison Dungeon," the beauty said to me with a smile.
She said that her name was Du Shi Niang, and that she was the first person I woke up to see here, the first ghost to be exact, and she told me that there were three kinds of prisoners here. One is that the physical body has been destroyed, and only the spirit prisoners of the lonely spirit are left, called 'gnawing the soul', these are the ones that Vola and Hoth have been incinerated after sucking the blood of their flesh, and they can never be resurrected, unless they can go out from here, find other bodies in the world, and drive their inherent spirits out of the body, that is to say, the spirits that enter the flesh of others forcibly occupy the flesh of others, and the spirits of the people before them become lonely souls and wild ghosts.
There is another kind, that is, me and her, whose flesh is not frozen or eaten by them, but who does not know where to go, they are called 'Void Devourers', and this number is the least, as far as she knows, but a hundred.
There is also a kind of spirit whose body has been frozen, called 'Cold Devouring Spirit', these people's flesh has been frozen by Walla and Hoss, and it is used as their future meal, Du Shi Niang said that the two demons she knows have been storing 'Cold Devouring Spirit' since 500 years ago, so the number of such spirit prisoners is the largest, they use this method to keep their food fresh, and before the body is eaten and burned, these spirit prisoners still have the possibility of returning to the body to come back to life.
"Therefore, there are far more cages I have seen, I'm afraid there are more than 100 of them" Du Shi Niang said that it was extremely exaggerated, and of course it was terrifying.
"Will there be so many?" I was amazed at the number, it sounded like these two bad guys were killing people a lot, it was just terrible.
"Yes, five hundred years, five hundred years, one after another, captive and imprisoned, and extract the souls of men. I don't know how you came here, but I died by suicide, and my body has sunk to the bottom of the sea, and it is useless for them to hold souls that have no physical body, but one of them said that such spirits can be used to refine into some 'falcon' stones, and after cultivation, the spirits that are refined into 'falcon' stones will be injected into their own bodies to achieve immortality, and some will be sent to guard the door, I have never understood what they are talking about, but they have certain requirements for collecting such souls, so we have very few such spirits’’”
"How do you know I'm in the same class as you?" ’
"Because we were both locked up in the top floor of the same level, so it was easy for them to summon us"
Suddenly, I felt that the yellow belt on my body was getting tighter and tighter, as if it was going to cut me into two pieces, and I was so breathless that I seemed to hear Du Shi Niang saying something to me, but I couldn't hear a word clearly, and I was dizzy again. Just when my soul awakened again, I thought of Du Heng, and some people would ask me why I still have memories after my soul woke up, and yes, all the memories about Du Heng were especially clear.
This is a dark and damp prison dungeon, I calmed down, plucked up the courage to look at the four walls of the stone prison, and the stone slabs protruding from the walls, there is no trace of daylight, from the only consciousness I have, this should be a stone prison dedicated to imprisoning important prisoners. Criminals? Prisoners, to be exact, were all trapped on every stone slab in the wall with ribbons of yellow charms.
The restriction of the freedom of the spirit prisoner is not like that of a human prisoner, and it needs to be held in kind. Each spirit prisoner has its own platform on the stone wall, and the spirit prisoners call it 'Rooting', I don't know if there are any secret facilities installed on each 'Root', and all the spirit prisoners cannot leave the 'Root' outside the specified time, otherwise it will be wiped out by flying fire.
Ever since I was locked up here, I've seen several spirit prisoners leave the 'root' without following the regulations, and as a result, don't really undo the yellow spell and leave the 'root' and run away, as long as the 'spirit prisoner' floats less than 1 meter away from the 'root', it will directly drift away like the wind. The few spirit prisoners who were annihilated by the ashes were the relatives of some of the people in this wall, and as they watched their wives and children dissipate before their eyes, there were bursts of terrible and heart-rending cries on the wall.
Therefore, this dungeon has several major features: First, there are many 'roots' on the stone wall that are dislocated and arranged for imprisoning soul prisoners, at first glance, it looks like bookshelves sticking out of the wall, but on the bookshelves stand books, and on them stand unjustly killed souls, some adults and some children. 2. All souls are subject to scourging every day, that is, the yellow charm that binds us to strangle the soul in two at irregular times every day, and then release it to recover. 3. All prisoners have only one free time a day, that is, 12 midnight, which is called Zi Shi in Taoism in China, and the prisoners can leave the 'root' to find each other's relatives for a short reunion.
"Hey, are there any of your relatives here?" Du Shi Niang, raised her head and asked me.
"For the time being, I know no, but who knows? According to you, in 500 years, anything will happen. "I'm very worried that Du Heng will also be locked up here, after all, this man I exchanged my life for, don't let me sacrifice in vain.
Now is the time to let the wind out, the spirit prisoners have all left the 'root', and we are left with Du Shi Niang and me.
"Are you worried that your sweetheart is here?"
Du Shi Niang's question shocked me, does she know how to read minds? In the face of such a straightforward person, I usually use silence instead of answering.
"You're wondering, why do I know you think so? Hehe" Du Shi Niang looked at the cliff demon cave, with a calm look on her face.
"Why?"
"Because we women, except for worrying about our own men, that is, worrying about our children, there is nothing else to ask for, your appearance and figure look very young, not like having children, then you must be worried about men."
This' Root' platform, the width and width of the length are just right, each spirit prisoner is bound by a yellow charm just enough to lie down on it, and you can also meditate cross-legged on it, because it is cut off by the yellow gauze charm once a day, that is to say, the soul energy in the body is extracted once a day, many times it cannot maintain a normal state, and there are many days of listlessness, I don't know how long the days of being trapped like this will be, and I don't know if my body will be found by the two demons and made into their frozen food storage, and I don't know, that guy named Du Heng will remember me。 I need to calm down and adjust my mindset and spirit so that I don't go crazy.
"What does he look like?" After a while, Du Shi Niang asked me another question while I was meditating.
"Who?"
"You're a man"
"Oh, we're just friends, he's handsome"
"Handsome men should be careful! A man who loves a lot in his heart is not short of love"
Love? Does Duheng love me? At least at the moment when Vola finally took me away, I didn't feel his love, not even a word of his affection. He's so good, an ordinary girl like me isn't his cup of tea at all, and everything is just my wishful thinking.
"We're just friends" I tried my best to control my emotions so that Du Shi Niang could not see my sadness.
"What relationship doesn't develop from a friend? So, if you like it, you have to dare to confess"
Vindicate? I still don't want it, I know it's a stone, so I won't touch this egg, otherwise, I will break the egg shell, run the soup, and splash others.
"Don't you have any relatives to visit?" I deliberately digressed the subject.
"The only man in the world who could be my relative left me forever on the day I decided to sink into the lake"
"Is he dead too?"
"No, I'm an orphan, we grew up together, I loved him for ten years, but in the end he told me that I was in love with someone else."
Hearing this cliché story of hers, suddenly, I felt that I had found a treasure, and if it was the year 2520, love would have been extinct. Could it be that Du Shi Niang and I are from the same generation?
"May I ask, what year did you come here?" I asked her.
"I'm here in 2020, and I've been locked up here for 500 years."
In 2020? And the balance is an era, no wonder, no wonder.
"I'm from 2080."
"Really?" Du Siniang seemed to be very happy: "Wow, in this way, you and I are old goblins, and the age of less than 100 is rounded off, it seems that you are 60 years older than me, normally I have to call you grandma." Haha, Grandma Ling. ”
"Technology is really amazing and will allow us to meet in 500 years"
"I'll tell you a secret, don't we have to go through a halve every day?"
"Well, yes, it hurts a lot, and it hurts your vitality."
"Tell you, among our people, there is a man named Yan Jun, who has a good relationship with me, he was a half-hung Taoist priest when he was alive, and he taught me a way to escape the daily waist cut."
"Really? What method? ”
As she was talking, a sudden explosion of thunder interrupted Du Shi Niang's words, only to see several spirit prisoners who were several layers away from the soles of her feet suddenly flew into ashes and annihilated. Vora's voice came from the air: "You all listen carefully to me, from this day on, whoever is still playing tricks under my nose and escaping the daily cut will end up like them." And those of you who pondered going out to find your own body and waiting for an opportunity to escape when the wind was out, also broke off this idea as soon as possible, once I found out, I will make you zombie warriors, used to protect our souls and withdraw from the city, so that even if you enter the body, you are just a zombie, there is a saying in China, it is better to die than to live, you have the opportunity to use the appearance of the spirit, live here for hundreds of years, isn't it better than entering the body and becoming a zombie, or flying ashes annihilated? Hahahaha" Vola's strange smile, eerie, I've seen it a few times, and the sound is only the silver needle of the balance can seal it in.
"What is a zombie samurai?"
"It's the body that has lost its psionic energy, and after they drain the spiritual energy, they put the spirit into the human body, so they all become zombies."
"Oh, I've seen them. By the way, you said that we were tied to the top level so that it was convenient for them to summon, what would they usually summon to do? ”
"Execution"
Before Du Shi Niang's words fell, I suddenly heard Vora call out my name
"Lingwei!"
