Chapter 278: A Suspicious Smile
After the crowd left, I nodded at the ghost plot and said:
"Strategist! Thank you for clearing the siege just now! ”
Pinching his beard, the ghost smirked:
"It should be! Mr. Bai has a bright future ahead of him! Please take care of me in the future! ”
After being polite to each other, the ghost made a gesture of invitation to me and said:
"Mr. Bai, Emperor Yin has something to discuss with you!"
Just now, I was going to find the Sinister Peak to ask about a way to return to the human world, and when I heard what the ghost plot said, I hummed and followed him out of the academic hall and into a secluded study.
Dong Fatzi was waiting at the door, and I pushed open the door alone and walked in.
Yin Peak was painting in the study, and when he saw me come in, he dropped his brush and said to me:
"How's Bai Hui? Did what I just said help you? ”
I sat down on the single couch across from him and replied:
"Some of the theories are too advanced for me to understand!"
The insidious peak held his cheek and smiled at me:
"It's normal not to understand, your cultivation has just reached the Taidou Realm, and you haven't stabilized yet! Once you've gotten used to the new powers, you'll understand! ”
"By the way, let me ask you! What did you see in the Xuanzi I wrote just now? ”
I was startled, and then replied calmly:
"I saw a very powerful aura! That sense of oppression from the Demon Origin Realm makes me only look up! ”
Yin Peak nodded, but was obviously not satisfied with my answer, and blinked and said:
"And then? What else do you see? ”
Recall the horrific sights I had just seen, the five hanged corpses...... My scalp is tingling!
Seeing that I didn't speak, the insidious peak sighed:
"Bai Hui! Although I am an emperor, I have never regarded you as my subordinate! You and me...... It's always a friendship! What should I not say to my friends? ”
"Say it! Tell me what you see? ”
It's all about this, then I have to tear my face! So I gritted my teeth and said:
"I saw you when I was young! You're painting in a dark room! You eat people's eyeballs! You put a woman's cheekskin on your head! And...... You hanged your own family with your own hands! ”
I just let it go! Tell me everything you just saw! Taking a deep breath, I blamed the insidious peak:
"Mr. Yin! In my opinion, you are a sick person! In order to complete that shady painting, you created a sense of despair by killing people, which I can barely understand! ”
"But I don't understand! In order to satisfy your distorted heart, you didn't even let go of your family! This is unacceptable to me! ”
"I've dealt with a lot of feminine things, and in my opinion, you are more cruel than feminine things!"
After saying that, I looked at the sinister peak vigilantly, but he didn't get angry at all, but said with a calm face:
"That's right! What do you see...... It's all real! I did those things back then! ”
It seems that he had already guessed, and I saw his past in the words.
Reaching out and wiping the fine long hair on his cheeks, the insidious peak continued:
"What I have done, you cannot understand now, you think I am vicious, twisted and even mad...... But I believe that one day, when you reach my height, you will understand why I did this! ”
Clapping his hands, the sinister peak whispered to the next room:
"Come out!"
I looked back in confusion and saw five men in rich costumes walking out of the next room and standing straight in front of me.
A middle-aged couple, plus two girls under the age of 18, and a little boy of seven or eight years old.
Pointing at them, the insidious peak introduced to me:
"Come and meet my family! Right now...... They're there for me! It's good to live in the underworld! Very rich! It's safe too! ”
"I can protect them! Give them everything they want! In this country! I am God! There's nothing I can't do! All the rules are up to me! ”
"I break the boundaries of life and death with my own hands! Bring your family to the underworld, because I was confident in myself back then! Believe that one day...... I can be the master of hell! ”
"I can give them a better life! That's why I hanged them! ”
When the sinister peak's voice fell, my lips trembled slightly! His eyes looked carefully at the five people in front of him.
The five of them, all with peaceful smiles on their faces, can be seen that they are living a pampered life here, but for some reason, I feel that the smiles of all five people are very unnatural.
It's like a crappy comedian, they laugh too stiffly, and if you look closely, you can ...... from the smiles of these five people Look at a terrible eerie and weird!
"Hello! My name is Bai Hui! ”
I greeted the family of the insidious peak.
They replied in unison:
"Hello! Nice to see you! ”
This conversation sounds like memorizing an elementary school English text.
I took a piece of candy out of my pocket and handed it to the little boy with a smile, but the little boy didn't dare to take it, but instead hugged his sister's leg and took a step back.
"Dangerous! What's the matter with you? Where did the etiquette I teach you go? Yin Feng's face turned cold, and he reprimanded the little boy.
The little boy still didn't dare to move, so my sister on the side stepped forward, took the candy in my hand, and whispered:
"Thank you, brother!"
I casually touched my sister's palm, and I felt something more in my palm!
All this insidious peak did not notice, he glanced at the painting he had just completed, and then said without raising his head:
"Dad! Take them down! I still have something to say to Bai Hui! ”
With their heads bowed, the five returned to their previous room, then closed the door gently.
At this time, the sinister peak raised his head and said expressionlessly to me:
"You saw it all, right? Do you still question my intentions? That's right! I'm hungry for power! But my soul has not fallen! I'm human! ”
"Everything I did! It's all for your family! These...... Do you understand? ”
Standing up, the sinister peak stared out the window for a long time.
It was dark outside the window, and a faint black fog shrouded the heavens and the earth, and occasionally some patrol guards could be seen walking by, not knowing what the sinister peak was looking at.
After a few minutes, he spoke:
"But all this ...... I've worked hard for so many years...... It will soon be in vain! Now that the siege is imminent, those yin things will kill me! They won't let my family go! ”
"Bai Hui! Promise me! Take part in this battle to defend the city! Just for my family! ”
Turning around, the eyes of the insidious peak flashed with coldness!
Yin Peak really values me, and in order to keep me, he actually used his family as a bargaining chip in exchange for my sympathy!
But there is one thing I still don't quite understand, my cultivation has just reached the Taidou Realm, and there are so many powerhouses at the peak of the Taidou Peak under the Yin Peak, why does he value me so much?
Is it really because of my potential as a child?
But I was indeed sympathetic, the war was ruthless, but the family was innocent, if after the death of the country, the Sinister Peak family fell into the hands of those yin things, the consequences were unimaginable.
Looking down and pondering, I replied to him:
"I'll think about it! But I have to go back to earth first! My body is still in the well in the hanging village! It's not safe in that place! ”
When I mentioned the Dead Man's Ditch, I suddenly remembered the third floor of the nightclub! The second floor leads to the Dead Man's Ditch, but what about the third floor? Where does the third floor lead? And I still don't know where the entrance to the third floor is!
Yin Peak didn't know anything about this, and after hearing my doubts, he said with a strange face:
"Third floor...... I don't know where the entrance is! But I can't take care of that anymore! ”
As soon as the conversation changed, the insidious peak nodded to me and said:
"It's good to go back! The time between the Yin and Yang Realms is not much worse, you go back and change your physical body to a safe place! Don't forget to take that yin painting with you! ”
"I'll teach you a set of spells, and if you recite it three times in a row, your soul will go out of your body! Return to Hades! ”
"Right now, the armies of the Ghost Emperor and the Demon Emperor are still gathering, and you still have time to rest and stabilize your cultivation, but you must be prepared! On the eve of the start of the siege, I will send you a signal! Then you must put down what you are doing and return to Hades to help me as soon as possible! ”
I hummed, and after teaching me the mantra for returning to the underworld, the insidious peak gave me a few words of uneasy explanation, and then let me go.
This set of mantras can ensure that when I descend to the underworld, I will not fall into the wrong place, but will appear accurately in the realm of the sinister peak.
