Chapter 34: Hell's Gaze
The so-called trigger means that this secret technique is used for resurrection after all, so it cannot be used while the prince is alive. But you can't let the prince hang himself because of this incident, if this proposal is said, if the prince doesn't die, he Li Buxiao will have to open the way on Huangquan Road.
But he Li Buxiao has a purpose, he is not here to accompany the prince to live and die together, he is just to seek money, marry his beloved girl, and exchange himself for glory and wealth for the rest of his life.
So he completely told the rest of the things to be done. That is to say, the prince must choose a person, this person must be able to live after he dies, and he must come to his corpse and recite the scriptures with hidden spells in order to trigger the secret art, bring him back to life, and have the legend of immortality.
After saying all this, Li Buxiao completed all the things he had to do, so he went to the prince to ask for credit, hoping that the prince would give him the reward promised to him.
What the prince means is that he has not seen the results or the results, so it is unreasonable and unreasonable to let him go like this.
Li Buxiao looked at it, the prince was going to pay the debt. This time he was really angry and angry from his heart, and he directly exchanged ideas with the prince, and said ruthlessly: If you don't give me the treasure today, I can make the resurrection technique on your body completely invalid, and I can also make your life uncomfortable.
When the prince heard him say this, he also knew that this guy couldn't be offended, after all, his life was still in the hands of others. So the prince played a trick. He said to Li Buxiao: You can help this king renew his life, how can this king treat you badly for that little gold and silver treasure. However, it is not yet possible, and this king still needs your help.
As soon as he heard this, Li Buxiao was even more unhappy, and he wanted him to work for him for the rest of his life. So what the hell is he trying to do? Loyalty? That's not his style. So Li Buxiao glared at him and continued to talk to the prince.
The prince couldn't help him, so he took a step back and said, "As long as you can help me with two more things, this king will let you go." First, I want to make it impossible for anyone here to reveal my secrets; Second, I will hide my dead body, and I will be awakened by someone in the future. You're going to do it for me, and you're leaving. ”
Listening to it, I feel that this matter is nonsense, and the prince is obviously deliberately causing problems. But after thinking about it, this is also within Li Buxiao's responsibility, after all, he took over the task of the prince, if he can't help the prince to do it in the end, it means that the task is not completed. If it were me, I wouldn't have paid for it.
All in all, Li Buxiao finally agreed. He used the witchcraft he had learned to not only make everyone mute, but also to create the illusion that the plague was everywhere. For a while, people were panicked, and blood flowed like a river. At the end of the task, he handed over two things to the prince, one was the secret technique of ten thousand horse tribulations, and the other was how to choose to awaken his destined person.
Subsequently, the prince also fulfilled his promise, gave him everything promised to Li Buxiao, and let him out of the city.
Unexpectedly, not long after leaving the city, Li Buxiao suddenly ran into a group of people, all of whom were masked, and wanted to take his life. Although Li Buxiao's witchcraft is powerful, it is not like the heroes in martial arts movies, he is very skilled, and all the people besieging him can be poisoned and lie flat with a flick of his fingers.
His ability is a slow job, and he wants to use Gu poison to kill people before others swing down their big swords, and he hasn't reached that path yet. However, this Gu poison saved his life in the end. It's just that he was seriously injured and bleeding nonstop, and if no one saved him, it was only a matter of time before he couldn't stop breathing.
But his life should not be extinguished, and just when he was desperate, he suddenly ran into a person. This person is called "Mo" by others in the palace, and he was originally a close confidant of the prince, but for some reason, now he is also carrying luggage, looking like he is going to run away. When Li Buxiao saw him, his heart was almost cold, thinking that he would end his life completely.
Unexpectedly, the man not only did not kill him, but also rescued him. After that, Li Buxiao's conscience finally found out after suffering a loss, and the two formed an alliance and decided to deal with the prince together.
However, dealing with the prince is not a matter of buying ramen on the street, and you can get it with money. The first is that he is in a high position and is heavily guarded. The second is that the old fox is insidious and cunning, and he has long been on guard against the two of them. Li Buxiao knew that even if they tried to assassinate the prince now, it would be useless, the prince had a complete resurrection secret technique in his hand, and only after he died, the resurrection technique and the prince's corpse could be destroyed to end this absurd thing.
Don't look at the prince's frail and sickly body, his old man's life is not short, and in the end, Li Buxiao can't survive him.
In the end, there was really no way, so Li Buxiao called Mo to the side and told him a way that was not a solution. He used a Gu technique to make Mo fall asleep, and explained everything to Mo before. Tell him that there is a failed copy of the resurrection, and that even if it fails, it can help them. It doesn't take a fate to wake up, but his memories will become blurry and even intermittent due to a long period of deep sleep. And he didn't accept the secret technique of resurrection, so after he woke up, he couldn't be immortal like the prince. Instead, his lifespan will be shortened to only a few years, and in these few years, he must let everything end, otherwise there will never be an end to it......
In order to allow Mo to have a good environment for the corpse, and to let Mo know what to do when he wakes up, Li Buxiao built this underground palace to store the corpses of the two of them and a lot of information.
Seeing this, the book in my hand can be regarded as finished. However, this book is a biography after all, and it does not record why we are trapped here, nor how we can get out. So we chose the wrong one?
"What now?" I looked at Kong Xian with a sad face, "Do you want to die here with all the answers?" ”
Kong Xian shook his head amusedly and said, "Where did you see all the answers?" What we see is probably just the tip of the iceberg. ”
"Okay, you're right, you're a professional." I'm too lazy to argue with him now, even if he says the moon is green, I'll nod my head and say yes.
"Would you like to read the other two?"
I quickly stopped him and said in a panic, "We finally got the right book, what if we open another book?" Don't don't, if you can't do it, slam the door! ”
As soon as I said slamming the door, looking at his expression, it seemed that he wanted to tease me again. So he preconceived and said: "If you don't agree to slam the door, just give an idea, if you don't die, you won't die, you know?" ”
"Yes, but ......," he said, suddenly putting his arm around my neck, touching my lips affectionately, and said, "You promised to accompany me to martyrdom, didn't you?" ”
I listened and wanted to beat someone, but as soon as I lowered my head and got out from under his elbow, I trotted two steps away from him before saying, "The hell is going to be martyred with you!" I said Kong Xian, you like to play me every day, forget it, now you eat my tofu at every turn, as if I have no discipline, isn't it too much? ”
He was stunned by what I said, stared at me for a long time, and couldn't answer. The two hands clenched and put down, put and clenched, as if something was nervous and struggling in their hearts.
I suddenly felt a little inexplicable self-blame in my eyes, but I really didn't say it wrong, although the two of us have a good relationship, we have been friends since childhood, and we have slept together, but we have never established a relationship. I didn't mind joking before, but during this time, I suddenly felt that Kong Xian's actions were a little too intimate.
It's not that I mind or hate what he does, it's just that I don't think the two of us have this kind of overly intimate position at all. In other words, this feeling of having no position makes me very irritable, I feel like a very casual person, he Kong Xian can hug and kiss whenever he wants, and he doesn't care if I'm his person at all.
"Mu You......" Kong Xian's tone was soft and glutinous, but his voice was a little hoarse, he just called me and turned his head to the side.
I stared at him for a long time, and he didn't say anything more, just lowered his eyes, exuding an indescribable loneliness, like a milk cat that had just been abandoned.
I couldn't help but sigh when I saw him like this, to be honest, I don't have any principles, especially when I saw Kong Xian looking wronged, I felt that what I just said was a bit excessive. "Okay, you won...... you won," I sighed, "whatever you say." ”
He said no more, nodded, and walked over to the corpse again, picking up the red book he had predicted. But he didn't open it, but just pointed to the stairs in the distance, and motioned for us to go upstairs and have a look.
I responded and was about to follow him upstairs, but when I turned around, I found that the sitting corpse had turned around!
It's impossible to remember wrong, he had been facing the front door all the time. We went upstairs to his right, but now his face was facing in our direction.
I had a white sweat on my back, and I reached out and pulled the corner of Kong Xian's clothes in front of me for him to look over.
Kong Xian only glanced back, and without saying a word, he eagerly told me to leave quickly, and then pulled me and rushed upstairs.
The staircase in this tower is spiral-shaped, which means that when we go upstairs, we go around the whole tower, but no matter which direction we go, as long as I look down, I will see the dry corpse looking at me strangely and smiling.
Kong Xian's footsteps in front of him became faster and faster, and I who was pulled by him gradually couldn't keep up, so I no longer looked down at the dried corpse, and I ended up out of sight.
Soon we were all on the second floor, but as soon as we stepped onto the last staircase, we were dumbfounded......
I saw that the layout of the entire second floor was very strange, and I don't know how many cloth curtains were hung in the space, densely filling the entire space. What's even more weird is that whenever our flashlight shines on a cloth curtain, a huge human face will appear on the cloth under the halo of the flashlight, but as soon as the light spreads out slightly, the human face will disappear again. It looks like there are a lot of weirdos with huge faces moving behind the curtain in the space on the second floor......
