Chapter 51: Going to the Grave Again
"That's not good, His Royal Highness the Night King is the one who does what she says." Gu Gesang made a guarantee.
Da Ji Zhongyuan couldn't see Gu Gesang's temperament, so he smiled and didn't say anything. Originally, I was joking with her, but I didn't expect her to be so serious.
Maybe it's because I really rested well yesterday, or maybe I really ate too much, today's Gu Gesang has a ruddy complexion, and he is extremely excited, which is very different from the nervous appearance when he went to the tomb for the first time before.
What catches your eye is still an endless wasteland, and you can't feel half of the people.
A gust of mountain wind blew, Gu Gesang shivered a little cold, but fortunately, Daji Zhongyuan prepared a coat in time and put it on her.
The coat has the fragrance of Gesang flowers, which smells very good, just like the unique body fragrance of Daji Zhongyuan.
The road was unimpeded, except that there were still some poisonous moth corpses on the ground, and the viscous liquid had been dried and had the characteristic smell of dampness and decay in the cave. Gu Gesang felt his head sullen.
After all, being underground is not as good as being above ground, similar to altitude sickness, and she feels that her brain is a little hypoxic. Her body was shaky as if she didn't obey the call, but fortunately, Daji Zhongyuan was behind her to support her.
"Ma'am, eat this." Da Ji Zhongyuan personally fed it to her mouth, and between her lips and teeth, she only felt extremely hot all over her body, but the things in her mouth were slippery and cold.
"What is this?"
Unexpectedly, the effect was immediate, Gu Gesang's head didn't hurt anymore, and his body didn't shake, just like taking Taishang Laojun's panacea.
"Gesang flowers." Da Ji Zhongyuan let go of her lips and smiled faintly.
Only then did Gu Gesang react, it turned out that the previous petals were chewed and fed by him little by little, and his breath was still in his mouth, and she blushed with embarrassment all of a sudden.
Although there are no outsiders now, the two of them are going to get down to business. Gu Gesang avoided Da Ji Zhongyuan's affectionate and ambiguous gaze, and diverted the topic, "However, I have meridian leaves in my mouth, why am I still affected by the miasma underground?" Besides, didn't the blue crane remove all the mechanisms in the cave? Could it be that this miasma has nothing to do with her? ”
Da Ji Zhongyuan restrained his smile and said seriously, "I'm afraid this is not the miasma we encountered before. ”
In addition to the miasma, there was also a smell of coal tar in the air. The light that appeared in the distance was actually a monstrous flame at first glance.
"On fire?" Gu Gesang was startled, unconsciously took a few steps back, and accidentally stepped on Da Ji Zhongyuan's foot.
You can feel the high temperature inside from a distance, Da Ji Zhongyuan frowned, and then chuckled, "No, let's move forward." ”
"But...... Husband, are you serious? Gu Gesang looked back at Da Ji Zhongyuan's relaxed expression, and rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
"Madame, don't worry, you call Achai out." Da Ji Zhong Yuan said.
Gu Gesang nodded, rubbed the white jade ring on his hand, and in an instant, Ah Chai's little head poked out.
"Ah Chai, protect your lady, this king will go back when he goes." Da Ji Zhong Yuan commanded.
"Yes." Ah Chai respectfully saluted Da Ji Zhongyuan.
Ah Chai understood what Daji Zhongyuan meant, but Gu Gesang didn't understand. She grabbed Da Ji Zhongyuan's sleeve and asked, "Husband, where are you going?" Pointing to the fire next door in horror, he cautiously asked, "You're not going over there, are you?!" ”
"Madame, don't worry, it's not a fire." Da Ji Zhong Yuan smiled easily, "It's just a phantom array." ”
Gu Gesang had seen the word phantom array in Zhi Lei's booklet, but it was only a few strokes, and then she went to Zhi Lei to ask why there was so little content about the phantom array. Zhi Lei said that it didn't matter, because ordinary ghosts wouldn't use the phantom array at all.
Da Ji Zhongyuan patted her hand, as if comforting, the whole person had already jumped into the sea of fire in a flash, Gu Gesang had a vague bad premonition in his heart, and wanted to chase after her, but she was pulled by Achai.
"Don't go, princess, even if you go, you'll cause trouble for Your Highness." After Ah Chai finished speaking, he found that he was a little rude, and hurriedly covered his mouth.
Gu Gesang shook her head indifferently, now she only cares about Da Ji Zhongyuan's comfort, as for the rest, it doesn't matter what she says. Besides, what Achai said was also the truth.
"What's going on with the phantom array in front of you?" Gu Gesang asked suspiciously, "I remember Zhi Lei told me that ghosts generally don't use phantom arrays. ”
"That's right." Ah Chai sat leisurely on Gu Gesang's shoulder, and said leisurely, "But there are exceptions. Learning the illusion array is damaging to the ghosts, and the stronger the illusion cast, the greater the load on the caster. Ordinary ghosts are unwilling, who wants to learn this kind of trick that harms others and is not beneficial to themselves? ”
After Ah Chai finished speaking, he began to popularize the knowledge of illusion to Gu Gesang again, "There are two kinds of illusion arrays. One is innate, and the other is acquired. Of course, the gap between the latter and the former is also obvious. Take His Royal Highness the Night King, for example, he belongs to the former. ”
"So, Zhong Yuan has been well aware of the knowledge of the Phantom Array since he was born?"
"Of course, His Highness the Night King is a rare genius in ten thousand years. If not...... If he hadn't lost his heart, with his strength, even if the other party and the Great Threshold Clan had joined forces, he would not be his opponent. Ah Chai said confidently, it can be seen that she admires Da Ji Zhongyuan very much.
"And the Da Ji clan has the ability to have an innate phantom array, and the ability to learn coexists, so fiddling with the phantom array in front of His Royal Highness the Night King is undoubtedly an axe in the banmen."
"I see. So, my previous worries were unnecessary? Seeing this, Gu Gesang breathed a sigh of relief.
"Of course, madam, don't worry." Ah Chai grinned and comforted.
Even if Ah Chai said this, Gu Gesang still looked in nervously, she was just worried, since the other party knew that Da Ji Zhongyuan was an illusion genius, how could he use another illusion to deal with him? Isn't this shooting yourself in the foot?
Now the key object of suspicion is Dajie Chenyi, Zhang Ke's disappearance, including the strange phenomena underground, nine times out of ten are from him. Could he not know the strength of Da Ji Zhong Yuan?
"Princess, please rest assured, His Royal Highness the Night King's congenital illusion skills, except for the ghost god and the ghost god mother, probably only Ah Chai knows." As if seeing Gu Gesang's concern, Achai then added, "Of course, there are more princesses now. ”
"Is it the ghost and god Niangniang who won't let you say it?" The first thing Gu Gesang thought of was Da Ji Zhongyuan's mother, after all, her aggressive appearance was still fresh in her memory.
"Alas," Ah Chai sighed and said slowly, "The ghost and god Niangniang also have a hard time. It is said that on the day of the birth of His Royal Highness the Night King, an unprecedented change occurred in "Ghost and God Wanshilu", and Achai is not very clear about what it is. It's just that after that day, it was rumored that His Royal Highness the Night King's heart had been stolen, and he fell into a deep sleep all the time. I slept for three hundred and seventeen years. ”
Gu Gesang knew more or less about these things, but she was still very surprised, Da Ji Zhongyuan had been asleep for so long, and on the one hand, he was also feeling distressed for her husband, at that time he was obviously just a child, but his heart was stolen for no reason.
"Actually, it's not easy for the ghost and god mother." Gu Gesang's heart also softened after hearing this. In the past three hundred years, the ghost god Niangniang has watched her son sleep all the time, and her heart must be like a knife.
"Zhizi Mo Ruomu, although His Royal Highness has never woken up in the past three hundred years of Chinese New Year's Eve, he knows everything about his strength. She deliberately concealed it in order to protect the safety of His Royal Highness the Night King. Although there are some things that the ghost god Niangniang does do go too far......" Ah Chai wanted to speak and stopped, and finally stopped talking at all.
Gu Gesang understood what Achai meant, and rubbed Achai's little head with a smile, "I know, I didn't actually pay attention to what happened that night. I was really angry at first because she used my mother's body to threaten me. It made me feel weak, and I couldn't even protect my family. ”
"Don't say that, princess, in fact, you are already very powerful. It's just that I haven't noticed it yet. Achai continued to encourage her.
Gu Gesang just laughed when she heard it, it would be good for her not to drag her feet on Ji Zhongyuan, remembering that Ah Zhong disliked her expression before, and now she looks back and feels that it is not unreasonable.
"What are you talking about? The king also came and listened. Da Ji Zhong Yuan walked over step by step after breaking the phantom array, and the black ghost power on his body dissipated little by little.
Seeing that the smile on Gu Gesang's face flashed, he then changed to a worried look, looked him up and down, and asked with concern, "How is it, have you hurt anything?" ”
Even though he knew how powerful his husband was, Gu Gesang couldn't help but worry. Da Ji Zhongyuan was generous and let Gu Gesang look at it, sticking to Gu Gesang's ear, a bewitching smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Do you want this king to take off all his clothes and let you take a good look?" ”
"What are you talking about, it's shameless." Gu Gesang blushed and pushed him away, Achai didn't seem to hear it, twisted his head to the side to look at the scenery, and whistled leisurely.
Looking at Gu Gesang's shy appearance, the fire in his heart seemed to be stirred up, and he had no choice but to suppress it. To do that kind of thing in such a place is too aggrieved by his own wife.
"Ma'am, it's time for us to go." Da Ji Zhongyuan stretched out his hand and pulled her into his arms.
The illusion is lifted, and the surrounding heat disappears. The surroundings were still the same as when they first arrived, and even a few drops of water fell on their heads. The cave was not hot, but it was a little colder.
It took two days to pass through this tunnel before, and it was also due to the delay of the Qinghe setting up the mechanism. Now, in addition to breaking this illusion, it is the problem of the collapse of the crypt itself. The ground is littered with rocks and bones of dead people, and it is shocking to look at.
But because it was not the first time to experience this kind of place, Gu Gesang was obviously much bolder. The belief in her heart is even stronger, her husband is so powerful, she must also be a woman worthy of him.
