Chapter 294: Alchemy (1st Update)
In the tomb, after a fierce battle, O'Connor cut off a group of monk mummies, and then picked up the sword in his hand to cut off the shackles that trapped Eveline's hands and feet, and finally rescued Eveline. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
However, at this moment, two more figures suddenly appeared at the entrance of the cave, not Li Xiao and the zombie Xiaoqiang, who had just returned from the desert.
After being slightly stunned, Evelyn immediately touched O'Connor with her elbow, then pointed at Li Xiao with her finger, and said angrily: "Just now he was the one who didn't save me, O'Connor, use the sword in your hand to give him some color." ”
Her pitiful expression, as if she was about to pour out all the grievances she had suffered, almost made her cry with rain.
Hearing this, O'Connor's sharply defined face frowned, revealing a look of displeasure. However, he did not act rashly as Evelyn said, but asked in a deep voice: "Why didn't you save her when you saw death just now, did you just watch her die?" ”
"I'm afraid I don't need to ask you how I act, do I? Noisy! Li Xiao snorted, and there was a slight coldness in his words.
He didn't have a deep friendship with Evelyn or O'Connor. In the case just now, whether to save or not to save is actually all in my own thoughts.
But then again, it is a favor to save each other, and it is duty not to save them, but it is not the turn of these two people to judge anything.
Faced with the questioning of the two, Li Xiao also choked back directly.
"Damn, I was almost bitten to death by that female mummy." Evelyn's nose twitched, tears rolling in her eyes, full of grievances.
O'Connor was born in the military, frivolous and hot-blooded, and looking at Eveline's delicate and pitying appearance, he had a desire to protect her, and he couldn't look down on his beloved woman, who was wronged in the slightest. I saw that he was angry, and he threw a heavy punch at Li Xiao.
It's just that the seemingly strong fist style has not yet reached Li Xiao's face, and O'Connor, as the initiator of the attack, was directly kicked and shot backwards under Eveline's surprised expression of covering her mouth, and her head hit a stone platform, her head shook a little unconsciously, and she almost fainted.
Li Xiao was still standing in place, motionless, and Xiao Qiang, who was standing behind him, also held back and did not make a move.
It was Immorton who came out of the shadows who kicked O'Connor away, and after the contract was concluded, Li Xiao had become his master, and the two had reached a servant relationship.
Because of this, when O'Connor wanted to make a move on his master, Immorton naturally wanted to stop it.
Immorton was a priest and warlock who excelled in ancient Egyptian magic, and he was more adept at spells. If this kick was kicked by Li Xiao just now, then the consequences would not be as simple as a slight concussion of the brain!
"I advise you to be more respectful to my master."
Immorton grabbed Eveline's neck with one hand, slowly lifted up, Eveline's feet left the ground, the whole delicate body was suspended in the air, there was a huge sense of oppression on the body, the neck was strangled out of breath, the original pretty face was even more red, the brain was blank because of lack of oxygen, the word "help" was intermittently swallowed in her mouth, and her eyes were full of horror.
"Forget it, she won't die for her crimes." Glancing at Evelyn, who was almost dying, Li Xiao shook his head and spoke.
In fact, whether it is Immorton or O'Connor, they are all life and death for Li Xiao, and even a random finger can kill them, after shuttling through many planes, experiencing all kinds of tempering of deceit and sinister people's hearts, he is naturally not the heart of the Holy Mother, but the way of heaven has a cycle, not for the sake of the enemy of life and death, it is better to kill less, and the reason why he can get along in some worlds is probably related to the merit points given to him by Yama at the beginning.
Immorton let go of his clenched palm, and Evelyn fell from mid-air to the ground, finally breathing a sigh of relief, but in her eyes, there was still a palpitation in her eyes that the ghost door had been closed.
"Get out of here before I change my mind!" The cold gaze swept over the two people who were quite embarrassed, and Li Xiao said in a deep voice, there was not a trace of ripples in Gu Jingbubo's words, and he was extremely indifferent.
After Evelyn and O'Connor heard this, they glanced at each other, as if they had been pardoned, and they seemed to have to leave here, but when they left the cave, Eveline glanced back at Li Xiao, but it was full of complicated resentment.
……
……
Although there were some minor episodes when returning to the tomb, they were also insignificant.
"This way, please."
After settling Ansona's mummy corpse, Immorton stretched out his hand to the dungeon, made a gesture of invitation to Li Xiao, and walked in front to lead the way for Li Xiao, in addition to the two mummy monks and the zombie Xiaoqiang.
As the high priest of the pharaohs, he was in charge of the priestly rituals of the Theban dynasty in ancient Egypt. He naturally knows the tombs of the pharaohs of the past dynasties and is extremely familiar.
Although they walked together, everyone did not say a word, remained silent with each other, and gradually walked towards the depths in a slightly dull atmosphere.
Walking in this winding and narrow road, Li Xiao's heart also felt a sense of shock.
It has to be said that the people who designed the pharaoh's tomb are also skilled craftsmen, the design is very elaborate and rigorous, and the tomb road and the four walls here are very similar, perhaps this is also the original builder's deliberate purpose, the purpose is to disturb the sight of the explorers and treasure diggers, and play a role in blinding.
If you are not familiar with the road, it is very easy to get lost if you walk in it.
When Li Xiao entered here along the thief cave at first, if it weren't for the mental power of spiritual exploration, I am afraid that he would have taken a fork in the road a long time ago.
After turning around in the winding crypt labyrinth, Li Xiao finally followed Immorton and stopped in front of a stone wall, and after Immorton's hand knocked on the surface of the stone wall in the direction of a specific trajectory, a groove protruded from it, and Immorton twisted the mechanism on it.
With the dull sound of "quack", the stone wall in front of them slowly moved. After the stone door was fully opened, what appeared in front of Li Xiao was a dark secret room, because the underground had been closed for many years, and a chilling and cool air came from inside.
"Xiaoqiang, you just stay outside." Li Xiao instructed.
"Yes." Xiao Qiang nodded, then stopped and stood on the side of the stone gate. Xiao Qiang's burly figure stood there, like a majestic and powerful door god, which should not be underestimated.
Immorton also raised his hand to his monks, signaling them to stop, and then walked into the secret room with Li Xiao, and at the same time, the stone door behind them also closed automatically.
After Imorton chanted a difficult and inexplicable incantation, the candlesticks in the four corners of the chamber were rekindled, and the soft light of the fire also drove away the darkness, making the chamber look bright.
With the help of this bright candle flame, Li Xiao's eyes looked around, and finally got a glimpse of the whole picture of this secret room, only to see that the space of this secret room was about 100 square meters.
I saw that the surrounding stone walls were engraved with pyramid groups, temples and palaces, birds and beast totems, pharaonic reliefs, and there were more ancient Egyptians who sacrificed to the gods and prayed to the heavens. It is like a vivid and exquisite painting, laid out in front of people's eyes, allowing people to appreciate the splendid culture and long history of ancient Egypt thousands of years ago, which is similar to the Longmen Grottoes murals in the land of China.
In the middle of the chamber there was a stone table, on either side of which there was a stone bench, and a candlestick for illumination, and there was nothing else, I don't know what it was for.
However, it can be seen from the thick walls that this place can be isolated from all distractions, and the conversation between the two will not be eavesdropped by anyone, so there is no need to worry about leaking any news.
Similarly, Li Xiao is not worried that this is Immorton's means to harm himself, after signing the contract, the two are both prosperous and lossy, if he suffers any life worries, then Immorton will not escape implication.
……
……
As soon as he sat down on the stone bench, Li Xiaoxuan immediately said to Immorton: "Say, what is your so-called elixir?" ”
Immortality is a dream that almost everyone desires, and the same is true for Li Xiao. Although the merit points rewarded by Yama and the dragon yuan served in the Fengyun plane can increase his longevity, this is only a quantitative change of decades or hundreds of years, but it is not possible to complete the qualitative change of true immortality.
Li Xiao has also thought about immortality for a long time, for which he has even watched a lot of immortal cultivation movies, and is ready to shuttle through the immortal cultivation world, using the method of cultivating immortals to enter the Tao, to get a glimpse of the way to immortality!
And just now, Immorton actually said that he had a way to make an elixir with such an effect, how could he not be interested!
So while asking, Li Xiao's eyes also showed a hint of expectation.
"I'm not talking about it. As long as you use the alchemy of ancient Egypt and add special materials, you can refine this elixir. Immorton took a deep breath and said intently.
"Alchemy?" When Li Xiao heard this, he couldn't help but feel a move in his heart.
