Chapter 482: Zhongli's Final Choice
To be honest, after listening to the words of the city lord, I couldn't help but feel guilty in my heart, although I didn't do the things back then, but Zhongli has always been a member of Zhong Kuimen, and as the current head of the house, I also have a little joint responsibility, thinking of this, I suddenly didn't dare to look directly at the city lord.
The curse of the city lord should be stronger than that of the others, and the lump of flesh I saw just now could barely see the eyes and see the mouth, but in the huge body of the city lord was completely covered by blood, except for the disgusting one, it was like a ball that had fallen into a large red dye vat.
But the city lord has one thing that is the same as other meat balls, hearing, vision, and the ability to speak are all retained, except for the body that makes people feel disgusting and frightened, the rest are no different from normal people, and the curse should change all the appearances, and there is no change in essence.
"At that time, I hated him so much that I secretly swore that if I survived, I would kill Zhongli and make him pay a terrible price for what he had done. The next day, disaster struck as scheduled, and the terrifying curse gathered the strength of the entire city to be unable to resist, and it was really painful to see the people in this city turn into monsters one after another.
But I could only watch powerlessly, but I couldn't come up with a good solution to the disaster, and in an instant, I was the only one in the city who was not hit by the beam. Gradually, I gave up resistance, and my whole heart was completely hopeless, what is the use of resisting now, I am the only one left in the vast city, and even if I survive, there is no point in being the lord of the city.
Just when I wanted to give up resistance, who knew that Zhongli appeared at this time, and the most surprising thing for me was that before I could understand what was going on, Zhongli actually died with the middle-aged man. The two of them disappeared into the void, but the beam did not disappear, and the most powerful beam descended on me, and in the blink of an eye I became a disgusting monster like everyone else. ”
What the!
I exclaimed that I was very disappointed with what Zhongli had done just now, but I didn't expect Zhongli to appear in the city at the most critical time to block the curse, maybe he had already woken up and regretted what he had done, so he appeared at the most critical time in Sky City, but it was too late.
If it had appeared some time earlier, the catastrophe of Sky City might not have come, and the peace here would have lasted forever, but unfortunately if it was just if, I could only imagine it in my mind, but it couldn't change the fact that it was a given, but Zhongli's final awakening still made my heart feel a little more comfortable.
Anyway, it can be regarded as making up for the mistakes he made, from the side, Zhongli has a great relationship with the city lord, if there is no deep friendship Zhongli in the end, how can he suddenly let go of the hatred between the two, the city lord may have forgiven Zhongli, otherwise he would not be so calm when he talked about Zhongli.
Thinking of this, I sighed silently in my heart, a thought difference, directly caused a tragedy, maybe it is not only Zhongli who regrets it, the city lord is probably also regretting the original impulse now, if the two don't fall out, maybe Sky City will not suffer such a terrible disaster.
Even if he can't resist the arrival of the disaster, at least he can escape from the city, and in the end, since Zhongli can die with the middle-aged man, it shows that his strength is not weak at all, and if the city lord and Zhongli join forces at that time, they may be able to directly resolve the disaster coming.
"Zhongli had left a word before he disappeared, and it was also Sky City's only chance to get rid of the curse." Suddenly, the city lord's voice said excitedly, the city lord has always given me the feeling of stability, even if it becomes like this, it will not be like this, and it will not be like other fleshy mood collapses, and it still retains its sanity.
"What?" I cheered up and listened carefully, and now I finally understood why the city lord wanted to save me, definitely not because of my identity as Zhong Kuimen, but because I was able to help the people of Sky City get rid of the torture of the cursed power.
However, my strength is very weak now, and I really can't think of how I can lift the curse power that has tormented Sky City for so many years?
"If you want to lift the curse of Sky City, only the people of Zhong Kuimen can do it, but the premise is that you must be the owner of the Demon Bagua Mirror, boy, do you have the Demon Bagua Mirror on your body?" After speaking, the city lord was trembling slightly with excitement, his mood was completely understandable, and it was strange that he was not excited when he finally saw the hope after looking forward to it for so long.
What, I was shocked in my heart, and the whole person was secretly vigilant, the secret hidden in the Demon Bagua Mirror was too big, the master and the master warned me more than once that my life could be lost, and the Demon Bagua Mirror could not fall into the hands of others, the story told by the city lord was certainly tear-jerking, but no one dared to guarantee the truth of what he just said.
What if it's a deception?
After all, there are too many people who want to get the Demon Bagua Mirror, who dares to guarantee that the city lord will not have a crooked heart, even if I don't want to doubt this poor city lord, but for the sake of insurance, I still took precautions, and replied with an unchanged expression, "What, the Demon Bagua Mirror, I have never seen it, is it the treasure of Zhong Kuimen?" ”
"Alas!"
Hearing my answer, the city lord sighed in disappointment, to be honest, when I heard his disappointing tone, my heart couldn't bear it, but at this time, the words that the master and the master had said flashed in my mind, and the unbearability in my heart was suddenly suppressed.
"It turns out that you don't have the Demon Bagua Mirror, is it possible that our Sky City will be tortured by a curse forever?" The tone was bleak, this time he was finally able to distinguish his gender from the voice, and the old voice was full of endless desolation and sadness, so that those who heard it couldn't help but be secretly sad.
"Senior City Lord, did you hear it wrong, how did the Demon Bagua Mirror remove the power of the curse?" I couldn't bear it, and then I subconsciously asked, maybe I was looking for a reason to help the city lord.
The city lord was silent for a while, and then said, "This is the only hope for Sky City, how could I be mistaken, Zhongli did say so at the beginning, as for how to remove the power of the curse from the Demon Bagua Mirror, he didn't have time to say it at the time, so I don't know." ”
Is what he said true?
Although he really wants to help the city lord in his heart, he doesn't know how to use the Demon Bagua Mirror to remove the power of the curse, since this is the case, even if he takes out the Demon Bagua Mirror, it is a blind delay, and he doesn't know how to lift it, do you have to try it one by one?
Besides, there is still a trace of doubt in my heart that the Demon Bagua Mirror can lift the curse, is it really that simple, how can the terrible power of the curse be easily lifted, the city in the sky is shrouded in the abyss of pain, and I am afraid that the city lord has not thought of a way for a long time.
To know how terrifying the power of the curse is, if it can be lifted so easily, how can it still torture Sky City for such a long time, Zhongli may not have said it clearly because of the relationship of time, I guess the way to solve the curse is not only the Demon Bagua Mirror.
But so many years have passed, Zhongli has also died with the middle-aged, even if you want to know the specific method, it is impossible, the city lord is vague, but I don't know the specific method, of course I won't be stupid to take out the demon gossip mirror, and even if I take it out, it won't be of any use.
The city lord looked very disappointed, and couldn't stop sighing, although I sympathized with him in my heart, but I didn't say anything to consol him, the Demon Bagua Mirror is very important, no matter what the situation is, if the Demon Bagua Mirror is exposed, it is likely to lead to death.
Carrying a heavy treasure, almost every day is bumpy and uneasy, the master's advice, the master's instructions again and again, I take the demon gossip mirror as my own life to guard, but my strength is too weak, and all the enemies I encounter are powerful, and I have a feeling of being in danger every day.
So before it becomes stronger, the secret of the Demon Bagua Mirror must not be leaked out, even if it is the closest and most believing person, the city lord in front of him must be careful to deal with it, this guy has been cursed and tortured for so many years, if his state of mind is not affected, it is absolutely impossible.
"Boy, are you here to find the Talisman that will not be passed on?"
The city lord said suddenly, I endured the excitement in my heart, I have experienced so many dangers, I have suffered so much, isn't it just to not pass on the talisman, so as soon as I heard these three words, my emotions immediately became a little uncontrollable.
"Not bad!"
I nodded fiercely and said loudly, "Senior City Lord, do you know where the Immortal Talisman is located in the city?" ”
"Alas!" The city lord sighed heavily, and said desolately, "Why don't I know, the talisman that is not passed on was left by Zhongli, and it was placed in the city lord's mansion." ”
"Thank you, City Lord!" I had a look of surprise on my face, the city is too big, and blind search will definitely waste a lot of time, but what I'm most worried about is that someone has found the untransmitted talisman before me, and it will be troublesome at that time, and I now have the strength to regain the untransmitted talisman is undoubtedly ascending to the sky.
"The talisman that does not belong to Zhong Kuimen originally belonged to Zhong Kuimen, and now what I am doing is to return things to their original owners, I hope you can make good use of this talisman and carry forward Zhong Kuimen." The city lord said slowly.
I nodded with an oath, put away my joy, and said with a serious face, "City Lord, please rest assured, making Zhong Kuimen strong has always been my life's goal." ”
"Good!"
The city lord suddenly shouted, his eyes slightly covered with blood seemed to light up, and he said in a strange voice, "You go, when you find the talisman that is not transmitted, you must come back to see me, Zhongli once left a few talismans and returned them together." ”
"Okay!"
After speaking, under the bright gaze of the city lord, I walked quickly to the direction where the city lord's mansion was located, and I was obviously overlooked in an important detail in my excitement, but at this time, even if I thought about it, I am afraid that I would not pay attention to it, because my heart was occupied by the joy of finding the untransmitted talisman immediately.
