Volume 3 The Strange Tales of the Women's Court Chapter 146 The Legend of the Sword Pond (25b)
Everyone is silent, click netbsp; "In ancient times, I wandered the Eight Wildernesses all day long. At that time, there was chaos in all directions, natural disasters continued, wars were frequent, and human beings often killed each other for food and territory, so that the land of Shenzhou was devastated. I was bored, bored, and devoured something that I could see. Gluttony began the narrative coldly, "Later, I wandered all the way, and I devoured all the way. Gradually, humanity became more and more afraid of me. Because I have a big appetite and can swallow anything. I don't know how long such days have passed. On this day, I arrived at the Southern Wilderness. ”
Speaking of the "Southern Wilderness", I keenly felt that there was a momentary stagnation in the gluttonous and lucrative atmosphere.
Come to think of it, it all stems from this place name that has only appeared in ancient books.
"At that time, the southern wilderness was huge, with dangerous mountains and rivers, swamps, and all kinds of strange poisons and herbs. I accidentally swallowed a strange grass with a strange shape and a glittering body, and I was actually poisoned. I was originally the fifth son of the Dragon King, and ordinary poisons were like snacks to me, but this time, I couldn't dissolve the poison by all means. In a fit of rage, I took on my true form and swallowed everything I could see in my stomach. ”
I pouted.
In the end, it also crashed into more than a dozen high mountains in the Southern Wilderness in one go, causing floods. The ancestors of the large and small tribes in the Southern Wilderness had to flee in embarrassment, and they couldn't escape the catastrophe. He Lu sneered slightly, and grabbed the conversation, "At this time, a great wizard of the Southern Wilderness Tribal Alliance, because he was born with supernatural powers, revealed the truth behind the flood in time. He used a spiritual stone left by the Mother Earth (i.e., Nuwa) in the past that his tribe worshipped to restrain his mad gluttony. In order to completely eliminate the flood and benefit the tribe, he made a pact with the gluttony trapped in the spirit stone with the sacrifice of his own soul and that of his successors. ”
"So that's what it is...... The origin of the soul contract. I murmured, and the shadows hidden in my heart flashed before my eyes.
"Ahem, it's like it's great." Yun Tengjiao pulled a mocking laugh.
Gluttony snorted coldly.
"How?" I looked at him puzzled.
"The strange grass that poisons gluttony is cultivated by this great wizard." Yun Tengjiao explained to me, "Moreover, he sacrificed his soul mainly to maximize the power of gluttony and spirit stones!" ”
"He cultivated poisonous weeds, but it was used to fight poison with poison, mashed and applied externally to treat rare beetle snake venom, who would have thought that someone would swallow it whole?" He Lu frowned, "As for the sacrifice with souls, although there are selfish motives, most of them are to save the Southern Wilderness and benefit the tribe. ”
"Well, this really can't be blamed......" I nodded my head and suddenly paused, and I couldn't help but have a look of surprise on my face, "Oh, isn't he a wizard from ancient times?" You can't be him, how do you know these things? ”
"Of course I do." His eyes sparkled, "Because I'm him!" ”
"Cut! You're not trying to tell me that he's your past life, are you? I couldn't help but roll my eyes, "He has made a contract with his soul, and there is no afterlife!" ”
"Heh, you have a good memory!" He smiled, "But,
It's just that I'm in a hurry. I'll explain it to you. ”
"No need. Let me tell! The gluttony suddenly spoke.
The corners of his mouth were raised, his expression was cold, and the ruthlessness in his eyes did not diminish at all.
I opened my mouth and closed it again.
"After I was poisoned, my madness increased greatly, but my strength was lost by more than half, and I was easily trapped by the spirit stone he used to cast a spell. Just as I was about to burn the jade, he suddenly changed his face and asked me about eternal life with a respectful expression. Tao Tao sneered and squinted, "Hmph, it turns out that the so-called elimination of floods and the benefit of the tribe are all pretenses, and they are used by him to monopolize the spirit stone and then find the smokescreen of eternal life." ”
"He is a mortal, and although he was born with supernatural powers, he can only start with his soul if he wants to live forever. Therefore, first use the soul contract to avoid reincarnation, and then temper your divine sense, absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth as much as possible, and enhance your strength. When the time comes, find a suitable carrier to realize his long-cherished wish of immortality! ”.
"Oh, this fitting body is Helu!" I was stunned
"However, he is also a mortal!" Then I looked at someone with a blue face in confusion, "Hey, no matter how strong your soul is, and it occupies the body of a mortal, isn't it still impossible to escape birth, old age, sickness and death?" ”
"Alas, gluttony is talking about the carrier, not the body." Yun Tengjiao was a little helpless.
"What's the difference? Doesn't it all refer to him? I pursed my lips disapprenanently, and then said with a look of pity, "Ahem, now I finally understand, why King Wu, who is one of the five tyrants of the Spring and Autumn Period, actually died because he was cut off by Doctor Yue Linggu Fu in the 'Battle of Li'!" ”
Dare to be affectionate by someone, oh no, it was calculated by the ambitious and powerful wizard spirit!
"Hmph, the two Divine Monarchs are speaking in a high-sounding manner at the moment, as if they are innocent." His face sank like water, his eyes flashed with cold light, and the corners of his mouth were full of mockery, "Just imagine, I was born with supernatural powers, how can I be buried in the midst of all living beings?" Monopolizing the spirit stone and making a contract, although it is in pursuit of eternal life, why didn't it save the tribe and the entire Southern Wilderness? What about you? Are you involved in this and willing to make a pact with me to avoid the catastrophe? Isn't it a request for eternal life? If you can easily find me and come and go in this tomb at will, isn't Kao's a treasure plundered by unscrupulous means? Don't you have any other intentions for this little girl? Why bother with fifty steps and a hundred steps of laughter! ”
"What do they have in mind for me?" I laughed heartlessly.
"You're not...... So you don't know! He Lu was surprised at first, and then immediately showed a little pity, "I didn't see that you were the soul ......of the pure Jun sword at first, but they have been walking with you, and they know your details early on, I am afraid that they are deliberately trying to cheat your life and take your soul to let the pure Jun sword return to its place."
A roar of restraining the clouds seemed to shatter the stone wall, and a strange red light spread in the tomb, slashing his head and covering his face.
Blood-red flames burst into the air.
The blazing temperature was filled with a more and more intense murderous aura.
I was still smiling, but the corners of my eyes were red, and I couldn't hide the pain in my heart anymore.
The gluttonous guilt, Yun Tengjiao's apology, although they are only fleeting on their faces, but they are enough!
It is enough to prove that the words of He Lu are true!
It's not that I don't know his violence, greed and viciousness, it's just that after so many years, I always have a bit of luck in my heart, maybe he treats me differently, maybe he has some true feelings for me......
But, so what? No matter how much truth and falsehood there was before, Tu Poor will eventually see the dagger, this is the same, my fate!
