Chapter 102: The Edge of Doom (12) Overcoming Rigidity with Softness
When he came, Mo Chen secretly chatted with Zheng Yi about the decoration in the laboratory. Zheng Yi said that he was not very clear about the layout of this room, but he always felt that it seemed familiar, but he couldn't remember what this arrangement was for.
Later, when Xu Bin and the others appeared, Zheng Yimeng thought that the entire room seemed to be arranged into a huge magic circle.
And those rune patterns painted on the walls and on the ground should belong to a mysterious people, and the spells are held.
The large coffin-like box, in terms of the layout of the room, was a bit to the left, which made Zheng Yi not think of the magic circle at first.
Now that I think about it, it seems that I once heard a Taoist friend mention that this belongs to the magic circle used by a vicious people in ancient times, and they are different from any later people, and do not take the center as the source of the magic circle.
Specifically, it seems that they never think that all beings are equal, that every life is arranged to come into this world, and that their destiny is set from birth, so when they are born, they are forced to form a distinction between noble and low.
Therefore, even their magic circle, the source of the formation should be on the left, the left represents the superior, and the right represents the inferior life for them.
The four directions of the room, east, west, north and south, as well as the deviation between each of the two positive directions, such as the southeast corner and the northwest corner, are all painted with strange symbols.
Zheng Yi told Mo Chen that those directions actually correspond to the eight words in the gossip, such as Qian, Zhen, Kan, and so on.
In this regard, Mo Chen was very strange, since it was said that these runes belonged to an unknown mysterious nation, how could their talismans, spells, words, and paintings be set according to gossip? Zheng Yi's answer is that although they are different, all people, things, and things in this world follow the same rules of survival.
In other words, this nation does not arrange the magic circle according to the gossip, but its various truths can also be explained by the gossip.
And now that they are forcibly locked up in this magic circle, the number of everyone, including Mo Chen, is just eight people.
Mo Chen and Zheng Yi tacitly thought of one place, and Mo Chen said to Xiao Na's husband, "It's a pity, I think you were also deceived by them." ”
Xiao Na's husband snorted coldly in disapproval, and Mo Chen leaned over and asked him, "Are you arranging the magic circle below?" ”
"How?" Cortana's husband asked but didn't answer, and Zheng Yi said, "There are runes drawn in every natural direction, and they should be some kind of incantations, if I'm not mistaken, we people are sacrifices to a certain evil god." After a pause, Zheng Yi continued: "There are eight of those strange spells, and there are only six of us, including Li Chao. So guess you and your wife have a direct relationship with sacrifice? ”
A trace of horror crossed Xiao Na's husband's eyes, and Zheng Yi's words touched his heart, because he originally retained a trace of distrust for Xu Bin and his party.
It was only for a moment, and soon Cortana's husband's face changed back to its original indifference, but Mo Chen still caught his uneasiness in his momentary panic. Xiao Na's husband struggled twice hard, and returned to quiet, Mo Chen tried his best to make his tone more sincere, and he said to Xiao Na's husband, "I'll loosen your ties for you, but please don't think about being our enemy again, if you have this time, you should go and check first, whether the escape door you prepared for yourself in advance is still okay!"
Saying...... The temperature here ...... It's getting higher and higher. ”
Xiao Na's husband stubbornly didn't answer, but his eyes still flickered unconsciously, and Mo Chen said, "If you don't answer, I will acquiesce to you." ”
As Mo Chen's words fell, the black silks wrapped around Xiao Na's husband retreated quickly and orderly from him as if they had heard an order, quietly returning to Mo Chen's body and disappearing.
Xiao Na's husband, who had regained his freedom, jumped up from the ground with a carp, and he hurriedly ran to the door where Xu Bin and the others left, and tinkered under the door for a long time, clicking, and opened a hidden hidden compartment on the ground next to the door.
Cortana's husband hurriedly moved into the dark compartment, but soon, as if his soul had been evacuated from his body, he fell limply to the ground.
Mo Chen and Zheng Yi stepped forward and looked towards the dark grid, judging from the cylindrical knob that had been cut off, the mechanism of the ambush here had been destroyed.
It seems that things are just as Mo Chen and the others guessed, Xiao Na is extremely husband, and he is just a pawn used by Xu Bin. Xu Bin's purpose was to use them to capture Li Chao, as for what kind of promises were made at that time, it was naturally a nonsense to deceive them into obediently cooperating.
Xu Bin's evil smile resurfaced in Mo Chen's mind, and he suddenly understood why at that time, he repeatedly asked to talk to Xu Bin closer, but Xu Bin didn't care.
Xu Bin naturally didn't care what Mo Chen had to say, because it didn't matter at all, Mo Chen didn't think about what they thought of.
They all came back here from the future time, and judging from the future ending, it really looked like everything was caused by Li Chao. Whoever it is, will subconsciously start with Li Chao when he returns here.
But just like Zheng Yi said, whether it is their plot in the future before, or back to the past and the present, the common point in the two points in time is that Cortana was "rejuvenated".
Moreover, Cortana's husband is also involved in matters related to rejuvenation at two points in time.
Therefore, instead of struggling with the three of Xiao Na and Li Chao, they took the trouble to identify who was the one who really caused the incident. As far as Xu Bin is concerned, it is better to save time and kill all three of Li Chao.
Mo Chen opened his mouth faintly, but he didn't taunt Xiao Na's husband, "Do you believe me now?" ”
Xiao Na's husband turned his back to Mo Chen and the others, he shrugged his shoulders and hung his head deeply.
Zheng Yi looked at Mo Chen, his finger secretly pointed at Xiao Na's husband, and asked Mo Chen how to deal with him now.
Mo Chen's eyes motioned to Zheng Yi, he dealt with it, and then Zheng Yi made an OK gesture.
Mo Chen stepped forward and patted Xiao Na's husband on the shoulder, his posture and tone were like a brother next door, just looking for Xiao Na's husband to chat.
Mo Chen asked softly, "There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and you don't have to worry about being deceived, besides, our brothers are very different from Scar." I promise you that all of us will never hurt you as a couple. ”
When a person's heart is at its most vulnerable, it is often the easiest to be contributed by a trace of warmth from outsiders, whether he is a so-called good person or a bad person.
Mo Chen deliberately promised Xiao Na's husband that there was indeed a suspicion of taking advantage of his uneasiness to talk about it. But it is also the true position in Mo Chen's heart, as long as Xiao Na and his wife do not take the initiative to attack and hurt any of them, Mo Chen and the others will naturally be well protected.
