Chapter 38: True and False
Who is real? Who is fake? All my judgment vanished in an instant.
My instincts must not believe it, he rolled over, and the face was exposed to the moonlight, and the people who watched it were even more shocking.
"Help me......" He was dying, his eyes already full of despair and helplessness.
My heart is soft, and whether it's true or not, even if he has a stranger's face, he should help me.
"Yes, how can I help you ......?"
He raised a trembling hand and pointed to the place at his feet, "Here...... You're here, open that lock......"
Lock?
I cautiously walked around, covering my nose and lifting the stinking and rotting quilt, to see that his feet were locked to the bed by something.
The lock was black and shiny, and it looked extremely weird.
"Is this the lock?" I leaned over, and the lock looked very strange, it was the style of an immortal lock, with an unknown pattern carved on it, and it looked like both a dragon and a worm, winding and twisting.
"Yes, that's right." He hissed and said, "Turn it on." ”
Open, how do you open it? I reached out and carefully twisted it up to take a look, I didn't know what this lock was made of, it was cold to the touch, cold to the bone.
"But I don't have a key." This keyhole is so small that you won't find it if you don't look carefully.
"With blood, with blood ......"
He meant to let me drip blood from my fingertips into it so I could open the lock.
I hesitated for a moment and shook my head, "No...... I'm afraid of pain. ”
Fear of pain is one thing, and on the other hand, what locks in the world need to use blood? I hesitate when I think of this.
After a while, the person on the bed sighed faintly, as if I had been disobedient in the past, Wenmo had no choice but to say to me, "One day as a teacher and a father for life, Qin Xian, are you really unwilling to help as a teacher?" ”
When he said this, I subconsciously panicked.
"No, no, it's just...... You ......" I didn't know how to speak for a moment.
"Qin Xian, is it not good for you to be a teacher during this time?"
He suddenly raised his voice, and there was a bit of accusation in his voice, which made me tremble.
I immediately replied, "No, I didn't mean that!" ”
"Then don't you open it quickly!" The voice of the command exploded in my ears, and my hand involuntarily put it to my mouth, and I was already about to bite down.
"Qin Xian, no!" The anxious voice of the dragon soul came from his ears, "You can't do this. ”
"But ......"
"It's nothing, but do you see clearly, is this person your master?"
The finger I put on my lips stopped.
"Will Wenmo let you save him by hurting yourself?"
The picture of getting along with Wenmo came to my mind, and it is true that although Wenmo is always late at critical moments, it never hurts me in the slightest.
"Hurry up!"
"Wenmo" on the bed roared, I shuddered, and turned my head to look at him.
Although he had a face of ink, the expression on his face was anxious and hideous, as if if if I didn't do what he said, he would eat me!
"I ......" I had just opened my mouth when the door was suddenly kicked open, and Wenmo stood at the door with a gloomy smile.
"I just said something was missing, I was hiding here." The corners of his mouth hooked slightly, and he said coldly: "Do you still know that persimmons are soft and pinched?" ”
Two Wenmo, one normal and one weird, looked at each other for three seconds, and the person on the bed suddenly erupted into a piercing scream, and the sound was so sharp that it almost penetrated my eardrums!
Wenmo pulled me out, and then said coldly to me, "Wait outside." ”
As he spoke, he closed the door.
I took two steps back, and then I heard the sound of explosions and screams in the room, and I was terrified to hear them.
"Qin Xian!" Ma Yi suddenly ran up, and when he saw that I was intact, he breathed a sigh of relief, "It's okay, you're okay." ”
I slowed down for a while, pulled Ma Yi and almost cried: "Xiaoyi, just now, I just saw ......"
"You've seen the people closest to you, right?" Ma Yi also looked frightened, "I saw it too!" In the basement! I saw my grandfather's limbs cut off and crawling on the ground, and I was so scared that I was about to pee! But I know Grandpa will never have any accidents! Fortunately, Mr. Wenmo arrived, so who are you seeing? ”
I was stunned, the closest person? But isn't the person closest to me also my grandfather?
How do you see Wenmo?
The voice in the room continued, Ma Yi said that it was "collecting demons", one of the evil gods worshiped by Taiping Dao is called the mirror demon, this kind of goblin will conjure up the person who people want to see the most, and then make the other party completely collapse psychologically.
I listened ignorantly, Ma Yi patted me on the shoulder, "But don't be afraid now, Mr. Wenmo is very good at dealing with this kind of monster, you have to follow Mr. Wenmo to learn hard." ”
I nodded.
After a while, the movement in the room disappeared, Wen Mo came out panting, and when I was about to ask about the situation, he actually gave me an unceremonious slap!
"Qin Xian, I'm so disappointed in you!"
I was aggrieved when I was beaten, stunned for a moment, and looked up at Wenmo.
"You've been with me for so long, don't you even know what kind of person I am? Someone else can trick you just by taking the form of me?! ”
He spoke so sharply that he didn't give me a chance to explain.
Ma Yi was also frightened, standing next to him and not daring to speak, he tried to persuade Wenmo several times, but in the end he just opened his mouth wide and stopped.
My eyes were red, my nose was sour, and when I was about to speak, Wen Mo said again: "If I hadn't arrived in time, once you bit your finger and gave the blood to the mirror demon, do you know what would happen next?" ”
"What? Qin Xian, do you still want to drip blood? Ma Yi was taken aback, and quickly grabbed my hand and looked left and right, "Are you crazy?" If you give your blood to the Mirror Demon, he will come up to you and follow you for the rest of your life! In the end, he will transform into your appearance and live in this world for you, and then you will ...... It's gone! ”
I'm even more aggrieved, didn't I give him my blood?
Wen Mo calmed down for a while, rubbed his temples and said: "Qin Xian, there are a lot of cheats in this world, and you are in a special position, if you can't learn to protect yourself, are you worthy of your grandfather and parents?" ”
"I ......" I struggled to utter a word, but I couldn't say it anymore.
Ma Yi hurriedly played a round game, "Mr. Wenmo, don't accuse Qin Xian, he also knows that he is wrong." The mirror demon conjured up the closest person, and what he saw was you, which proves that he still cares about you as a master in his heart during this time. Moreover...... Qin Xian hasn't learned any magic now, and he doesn't know anything about this kind of thing, this time it's just an accident, next time he will be more vigilant. ”
Wen Mo stared at me for a long time, and nodded with a gloomy face, "This time, I don't blame you anymore, but next time, you can do it yourself!" ”
After speaking, he rolled up his sleeves and turned to go downstairs.
I stood still, my head still buzzing, and Ma Yi tugged at the corner of my clothes.
"Qin Xian, don't blame Mr. Wenmo, you see that he is quite calm on weekdays, but when he encounters you, he will be in chaos-maybe you didn't notice just now, Mr. Wenmo is injured."
Yes?
I hurriedly looked up in the direction where Wenmo had disappeared, he had already gone downstairs.
"When he raised his hand just now, I saw blood on the side of his waist and abdomen, which must have been injured in the fight." Ma Yi paused, "Normally, to deal with such spirits, we usually deal with them for a while, and consume their demon power before we can do it, Mr. Wenmo is not a reckless person, he is a quick solution for you." ”
When I heard this, I felt even more guilty.
"Okay, let's go down, I found a trace of a fox in the basement, I guess that Bai Qi must be trapped here."
Ma Yi is obviously not much older than me, but he knows more than me, and all the grievances and unwillingness in my heart disappeared in a few words.
Walking down the stairs, all the evil gods enshrined in the hall were destroyed, and a foul smell came from the air.
I followed Ma Yi to the northwest corner of the room, where a door opened, and below it was a dark and deep staircase with no end in sight.
"It's in here."
