Chapter XXXVIII
"Tsk. It seems that you are quite reluctant to me, are you deeply shocked by my charm? I playfully rested my head on Kong Xian's shoulder socket.
He turned his head to meet my gaze, his eyes gentle and warm. He smiled, "yes, so what?" I can't bear to let you not marry? ”
"That's not going to work!" I hurriedly waved my hand and shook my head, "It's one thing for you to be reluctant, I can't be a bare-bones commander for the rest of my life." If you don't marry me, I'm not allowed to marry someone else, is there any reason? ”
"Heavenly Reason?" His expression was not very good-looking, "Tianli is, unless I die, you Muyou will be my person." ”
"You're crazy!" After listening to him, I was inexplicably a little happy, but I pretended to be helpless, sighed, and said with a smile: "Master Jin, Master Jin, you have to die with a hard mouth, if you like me, you can just say it, it's a big deal if I give you a chance to pursue me." ”
"Fuck off!"
Kong Xian directly pushed my head off his shoulder, and then lay down, as if intending to rest for a while.
Seeing that he was also tired, I stopped bothering, got up and took a small blanket from my duffel bag and wrapped it around him.
After he fell asleep, I began to close my eyes and recuperate, saying that it was to recuperate my spirits, but I was actually not at peace, after all, Mo Zhanchen and they never came back, and I couldn't put it down in my heart.
Gradually, I began to feel that the map of the city appeared in my mind, and the image of this map in my mind was much clearer than the one drawn on the cloth. I even saw the patrols coming and going of the palace, and the bustling scene in the city. I saw the lantern festival at night, and I also saw the dragon boat race during the day, and the scenes were presented in my mind as if I were there.
At this time, I suddenly noticed a familiar figure in the crowd, he was slender, with long black hair reaching to the waist, which was particularly eye-catching. So I put aside the excitement and followed him, trying to see who this man really was.
Gradually, I heard him talking to others, and I saw his side face. However, what made me feel incredible was that this person turned out to be Mo Zhanchen! His expression was still cold, his voice was still low, and nothing had changed in the slightest, but he appeared in this place where he shouldn't be.
I followed him all the way to the gate of the palace, and the servants below saluted him. Looking left and right, I decided to climb over the fence so as not to attract attention.
Mo Zhanchen entered a side room, and the next person had already lit the oil lamp, and he ordered someone to bring bath water to prepare for bathing and changing.
In the bright light, I suddenly noticed the jade pendant on his waist, which was the one I had taken out of the empty coffin and returned to him. There is a word "Mo" written on it. He cherished it very much, and gently took it off and put it on the round table beside him, so as not to let anyone touch it.
At this time, a middle-aged man in his forties suddenly came to Mo Ranchen's door with a few subordinates. He is dressed luxuriously, and he looks like a big man in his gestures. He raised his leg and entered the door, ignoring the only underwear that Mo Ranchen had taken off.
Obviously, Mo Ranchen was also very displeased, he frowned slightly, looked at the visitor coldly, and asked him what was the matter.
The man walked away and whispered to Mo Ranchen, "Our plan is about to start, you are ready." When the king returns, you only have one month, and no one in this city can stay, you know? ”
Mo Yanchen paused, just nodded.
I felt a faint sense of uneasiness in my heart, and I always felt that someone was watching me, so I quickly looked around.
This look! The middle-aged man was already standing behind me! He has a big knife in his hand, and he is about to cut it down at me!
I let out a scream and rushed out.
As soon as I arrived at the gate, I looked back and saw that the middle-aged man was followed by many people in night clothes, all of whom had strange smiles on their faces and chased after me with compassion.
I rushed out the door, but when I got out, I was stunned, only to see that the street had long since ceased to be bustling and extraordinary, and everywhere there were people's wails, and the blood on the ground and the moonlight were intertwined, slowly flowing towards my feet.
At the moment of life and death, I didn't have time to sigh, or even suppress my fear. Stepping on the blood on the ground, I rushed towards the street, I didn't run slowly, but the pursuers behind me couldn't shake off.
Finally, there was a corner in front of me that seemed to be able to get out, and I turned around and ran in. Unexpectedly, I thought I could finally escape, but a tall figure suddenly appeared in front of me!
He was holding the knife, and the direction of the backlight made it difficult for me to see his face, but I recognized the jade pendant around his waist! and the word "Mo" dancing with the dragon and the phoenix!
I can't escape, I can't escape, I can't avoid it, and I see that the dark ancient knife is about to cut down on me!
"Muyu."
Kong Xian's voice pierced through the night and woke me up.
I opened my eyes to find him looking at me with some concern, wiping the sweat from my forehead with a handkerchief.
"What's wrong?" I asked a little weakly.
"I also want to ask what's wrong with you, in such a cold place, you can sweat while sitting, are you okay? What about practicing the Sunflower Treasure Book? ”
I let out a sigh of relief, reached out to him to hand me the water next to me, and replied, "It's okay, it seems like I had a nightmare just now." ”
"What did you dream about?"
"I dreamed that Mo Ranchen wanted to kill me, and I dreamed that he obeyed the orders of the prince."
Kong Xian's brows furrowed, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly said, "Maybe my guess is not too ridiculous. ”
"Guess? What guess? ”
"Have you ever thought that maybe Mo Ranchen is the owner of the empty coffin, that is, Mo next to the prince!"
After listening to him, I shook my head and hurriedly said: "You are too, this is impossible, this is impossible, is he still unable to cross over?" How can anyone in the world live that long? Besides, if you don't eat or drink, even if the coffin lid is covered, there is not even air, can he still be so powerful that he doesn't need to breathe? ”
Seeing that I didn't believe it, Kong Xian explained again: "Didn't Li Buxiao's book say before that he used a failed version of the resurrection copy on Mo? It can make people sleep for a while until they are woken up by someone who is destined to do so. Although it sounds mysterious, it is not impossible to achieve it. Even a truly successful resurrection technique may be achieved, not to mention that this failed version of the quest will be much less difficult to operate. ”
"However, doesn't it say that this failed version is not like the genuine version, which can make people immortal after they come back to life, but it will shorten people's lifespan, so that those who come back to life can only live for a few years at most?" I asked, confused.
"Yes." Kong Xian nodded, "The name Mo Ranchen has only appeared on the Dao in the past two years, and there are almost no people who know anything about him. His appearance was so accidental that no one could trace his origins and no one knew where he came from. It is precisely because of his unverified sense of mystery that he will be regarded as a god by the Mo family. ”
I sounded like I had a little bit of truth, so I guessed with him: "So, maybe the fawn is the one who woke him up?" ”
"Yes. It is possible that the fawn broke in by accident and released Mo Ranchen. Therefore, Mo Yanchen said before that Xiaolu was his benefactor, which was very reasonable. ”
Speaking of which, I also think it is quite reasonable, but when I think that Mo Ranchen traveled over a hundred years ago, I still feel unreliable. After all, this thing is too mysterious, and the probability of winning five million in a lottery ticket is lower.
"How much do you rate this hypothesis probability?" I asked.
He thought for a moment and gave seventy points, "To be honest, this possibility is quite large, unless even the resurrection technique is fake, unless it is a hoax left by the ancients from beginning to end." ”
"Are you still waiting here?" I'm a little irritable.
Kong Xian didn't reply, but got up and walked to where Mo Ranchen and the others were, as if he wanted to wait and see. But as soon as I stopped there, I suddenly said, "Not good! They can't come back! ”
I was startled and hurried over to him to see what was going on.
Only after this look did I find that the path Mo Yanchen and the others had walked before was blocked by a stone wall. And there was no trace of it, as if there had never been a crack here that led to anything else.
"Oh my god, what should I do?" I asked with a sigh as I stroked the stone wall that was so coherent into the body.
Kong Xian paced back and forth for a moment, then waved his hand and said, "Put the wine here, let's go!" ”
"Where?"
"Go back to Li Buxiao, only there can find a way at present." Kong Xian said that he packed the luggage we were going to bring as quickly as possible, and only left some necessary things for Mo Ranchen and them. Then we went back into the gap and walked in the direction of the tower.
Seeing his fast steps and eager to run, I didn't understand, and as I walked I asked him, "Why are we running so fast?" Mo Zhanchen doesn't care about them? ”
"No, it doesn't matter." Kong Xian looked nervous, "I can't control it." If their roads are blocked, the same situation may happen on our side, and we can't be slow, if we are blocked in the ice bed, we will not find a new way out. And the temperature there is too low, we don't have thick clothes, we rely on willpower to carry it, and we definitely don't live for three days. ”
When I heard this, I didn't ask any more questions, and hurried forward with him.
When I got to the corpse wine, I was afraid that I would still deal with parasitic vines later, so I took a small bottle from my bag and filled it with some corpse wine.
Due to our hurry, we were very fast, and we rushed to Li Buxiao's body in almost less than ten minutes. Immediately after that, Kong Xian was about to go upstairs. I quickly called out to him and told him to stop first.
"What's wrong?" He looked at me a little inexplicably.
I stretched out my finger and pointed to the position in front of Li Buxiao, and said suspiciously, "We didn't touch the yellow book, right?" The old man's gang and your six weren't ready to open it before, but why is it missing now? ”
Kong Xian frowned, didn't bother too much, pulled me and urged, "Go up and ask them." ”
After finishing speaking, we hurried up to the second floor......
But this time, we were both dumbfounded. It's a mess, it's all the traces we left before, but there is no one!
