039 The oil runs out and the lamp withers
Yan Wo also leaned over and stared at the silver wolf curiously for a while.
Huskies "woo-woo" on the side.
The silver wolf was annoyed by the husky, raised his paw with difficulty and slapped it, and said angrily: "You, fuck, shut up, okay?" ”
Husky: "......"
Yan Wo saw that it was difficult to speak, so he hurriedly took out the Qi Recovery Pill from his small backpack, poured out seven or eight pills and handed them over.
The silver wolf glanced at it, and his disgust overflowed: "This, it's all some, what kind of spicy chicken." ”
The alchemy of the Yan family is not growing up more and more.
Yan Wo's hand, it's not to accept it, it's not to accept it.
The silver wolf spit out a mouthful of turbidity, and still ate the Huiqi Pill given by Yan Wo, after all, no matter how small the mosquito is, it is still meat. Recovering some spiritual power, the silver wolf could barely stand up. It shook its fur and turned to walk off the cliff.
Seeing this, the husky hurriedly pushed Yan Wo and motioned to follow along.
When it reached the top of the cliff, the silver wolf did not stop, and walked straight to the abyss, and the miraculous thing was that it did not fall, but stepped into the air, walking into the depths step by step.
The husky also followed the gourd and walked over, and halfway through, he turned back and urged Yan Wo to hurry up.
Yan Wo hesitated a little and took a tentative step.
"Huh?" Yan Wo nodded on his toes and found that there seemed to be something under his feet, so he took another step and "floated" in the air.
Surprised for a while, Yan Wo hurriedly chased after the husky.
The figures of a wolf, a dog, and a man disappeared into the abyss.
The next moment, they appeared in an attic, surrounded by candles, but the furnishings in the building were simple and simple.
There was an oil lamp lit on the table, and there was not much oil left, and the wick was less than an inch long, and there was a flame burning on it.
The silver wolf looked at the oil lamp, then turned around the nest and looked at him.
Yan Wo was a little numb by it.
Suddenly, the silver wolf spoke, "Do you want to live?" ”
Yan Wo's heart suddenly burst into action, and he said vigilantly: "What do you want to do?" I helped you when you were weak, and you can't take revenge. ”
The silver wolf snorted lightly, and glanced at the husky, as if to say that Yan Wo's IQ is the same as that of these two goods.
Yan Wo choked, but he didn't know what to say.
"What do I want your life for?" The silver wolf rolled his eyes, "Didn't you see those ghosts before?" They are all children of the Yan family who died in this secret realm. Eight hundred years, once every twenty years, each time more than thirty percent of people die here, and now there are nearly a thousand ghosts and ghosts here. ”
Yan Wo didn't figure out the meaning for a while, but he was shocked by the huge number.
But in addition to being shocked, he was also a little puzzled: "But as long as I find the key, I can get out, how can I die here?" ”
The silver wolf replied in a non-right voice: "These dead children of the Yan family, their bodies are in ashes, their cultivation and qualifications are stripped and gathered in the central tower to be absorbed by the eight outstanding children selected by the Yan family, only the soul is imprisoned here, and they have become the lonely souls and wild ghosts of this world." ”
After all, the secret realm is an incomplete small world, and without the reincarnation of the Heavenly Dao, these lonely souls and wild ghosts naturally cannot be reincarnated.
Yan Wo was shocked, and only then did he react, it turned out that this secret realm was the first selection.
But Yan Hong clearly said that except for the eight outstanding children who were selected, the rest of them would become their nourishment. But the silver wolf's words obviously didn't mean that, except for the three percent of the disciples who died in the secret realm and the eight furnace tripods that were selected, the others were clearly alive.
Yan Wo was full of thoughts, his heart was like a mess, and he grabbed something indiscriminately and asked urgently: "The one who got the key is the one who passed this level?" But these people all went to the central tower, how were the last eight people determined? ”
If, if he can pass the first level and avoid becoming one of the eight chosen, then why use the method of exchanging lives?
Thinking of this, he suddenly realized, no wonder Yan Hong wanted to lie to him!
No, no, Yan Wo carefully recalled Yan Hong's words, and suddenly realized that Yan Hong had never said that everyone was dead. only said that the people who were fused by blood and the people who became the furnace were dead, and there was nothing wrong with it at all!
The only misleading sentence is "You are one of them, and you can't escape." Either become the first batch to be melted, or become the second batch of furnaces, and the final outcome is extremely miserable."
So he developed a habitual thinking that everyone has to die.
In the final analysis, he was careless and careless about Yan Hong's cunning old fox. Even if the other party is delirious, he can still play with him between applause.
Yan Wo scolded himself for being "stupid" in his heart.
Seeing his face change, the silver wolf couldn't help but notice a hint: "You know? The Yan family is very cautious and thorough, how do you know? ”
The Yan family did not have a specific scope for selecting people from the beginning, whether it was good or poor, they were all brought to the ancestral house, and then they died in the secret realm, and those who became the furnace were not all the best children, so it was more like an accidental death in the experience.
Moreover, the Yan family only has such a "selection" every 20 years, and the rest of the time, as long as the children of the Yan family are old and have spiritual roots, they will be selected to teach the exercises in the ancestral house, and the Yan family will not wither, so it is even less likely to arouse suspicion from the outside world.
The purpose of the Yan family is to create a genius to become the pillar of the family, and not to make it break the dynasty, so there will only be a "selection" every twenty years, but it does not mean that the cultivation of other clansmen is ignored, how can a family be carried forward by only one person? As long as there is one pillar, it is enough, and the prosperity of the family still depends on the support of all the clansmen.
And Yan Hong's ability to find out such a truth depends not only on his personal genius, after all, after so many years, there will always be people who will doubt it, right? These people have more or less found out something, but they are forced by the authority of the family and are not completely sure, so they dare not rashly expose it, or they are exposed and quietly erased by the family.
Yan Hong naturally got the help of these people.
Yan Wo swore that he would not reveal information about Yan Hong, so he could only shake his head and ask instead: "You asked me if I wanted to live, indicating that you have a way to let me escape?" ”
The silver wolf didn't go to the bottom of it, turned his head and walked to the oil lamp, and said: "This oil lamp is the core of the secret realm, do you see, it is almost exhausted." ”
"What do you mean?" Yan Wohu said suspiciously.
"Even the secret realm is almost gone, as the number of unjust ghosts increases, and their cultivation continues to increase, the power consumed to suppress them is also increasing. Don't you see that I can't stop them? This time it's a fluke, and next time maybe I'll be torn to shreds by them. The silver wolf sighed, a little more lonely in his tone.
Among these ghosts, there are many ghosts who are close to a thousand years old.
"What do you mean by telling me this?" Yan Wo asked.
What does this have to do with saving his life?
The silver wolf stared at the oil lamp with both eyes, the candlelight in his eyes flickered, and he was blazing: "As long as you refine this oil lamp, you can gain control of the secret realm, and then you can use the control to forge the illusion of death, won't you escape the catastrophe?" Not only that, but you'll also be able to save the people who are still alive in the secret realm. ”
The silver wolf blew a breath, and after the oil lamp, a twilight picture was condensed, showing the children of the Yan family who were still in the secret realm.
Now it has been less than half a month since they entered the secret realm, and most of them have not found the key, or they have encountered a demon beast with a key but they can't defeat it.
Not everyone was as lucky as Yan Wo and they came across a cheater husky. Not all of them have the cultivation that they are so strong that they can snatch it after finding the key.
Most are still struggling, and some have even died.
"It's still a short time and there haven't been many casualties, but as time goes on, there will be more and more dangers, and more people will die by then." The silver wolf said flatly, it doesn't matter how many people die, but, "The more people die, the faster I die." ”
The more unjust ghosts there are, the stronger they will be when they erupt next time, and the silver wolf is already powerless.
Yan Wo just realized that he had planted a big heel in Yan Hong, and it was when he was on guard, so he easily didn't believe his words: "But you have the control of the secret realm, why don't you just make an illusion?" Besides, we've all faked our deaths, so what about the center tower? ”
The silver wolf's tone was still flat, and even a little disdainful: "You can be stupid with this question, why don't you ask me directly why you want to guard this secret realm for the Yan family?" ”
Wouldn't it be better not to be guarded?
Yan Wo was speechless.
"I have the prohibition of the ancestor of the Yan family, and I have to carry out the will he left behind, so I can't help it." The silver wolf despised Yan Wo before continuing to explain, "But you don't need to, if you refine the oil lamp, you can do whatever you want." ”
As if afraid that he would hesitate, the silver wolf added: "I have seen your root bones and cultivation, the wood system single spirit root, and the seven-layer perfection of qi training, if you go out, you will definitely not be able to escape the fate of becoming a furnace ding." You are the best among these people who have entered the secret realm, but the genius of the Yan family has already been decided, and your fate can be imagined. ”
Yan Wo's heart shook suddenly.
If it is really as the silver wolf said, and there is no Yan Hongjiao's method of changing lives, then isn't he really only the only way to refine the oil lamp?
Silver wolf's intentions, is it good or evil?
Although Yan Hong misled him, he also made an oath not to harm him, but the silver wolf was not necessarily.
"It's really hard for a cultivator to be so afraid and cowering." Seeing that he was still hesitating, the silver wolf snorted disdainfully, "Don't you want to save those of your kindred?" ”
These words touched Yan Wo.
Although they usually have some small friction and small competition, they can't do it if they want Yan Wo to watch them die. After all, they are all innocent children, and they are all fresh lives.
