202 · Xin Xue (II)
A choking smell poured into the nasal cavity with the door open, not smelly, but it was by no means good.
"What kind of smell?" Zhong Yan Pang Zheng frowned.
"Try something new. Xin Xue glanced at him, "What are you looking for me?"
The princess wanted to know Chen Jian's whereabouts. ”
"The hermit asked once, and he didn't tell you?"
"Seeing is believing. ”
Xin Xue shrugged, as if accommodating Zhong Yan Pang Zheng's willfulness.
He walked into the room and asked the short man to follow, his long black hair was very well-maintained, swinging in front of Zhong Yan Pang Zheng. Even if he is dressed sloppily and tired, his hair is still flowing, how can there be such a person?
Xin Xue once said that this was his hair that he had maintained with great difficulty, and he used a lot of secret recipes and medicines, Zhong Yan Pang Zheng was not interested, he didn't want to be a ghost with a cloak of hair, it was too improper. If outsiders know that there is such a living Buddha in the palace, they don't know what kind of ridicule they will be encountered.
Although Xin Xue is sloppy, the house is cleanly organized, and it seems that every corner is meticulously cleaned in order to welcome guests, and there is no trace of care. There is a huge contrast between the person in front of him and the room in front of him, Zhong Yan Pang Zheng has seen it many times, but he still can't help but exclaim.
"Chen Jian is dead. Xin Xue spoke first.
"Let me see. ”
"You didn't bring anyone. ”
Suffered. Zhong Yan Pang Zheng patted his head: "I haven't been here for too long, I forgot." ”
"It's okay, I've got just enough here. As he spoke, he sat up and bent over, groped on the ground a few times, the floor on the side slowly moved away, and the sound of the stone mechanism was quite old, in fact, this secret door was built with a lot of money after Xin Xue moved in - this is what the princess meant, that is, to facilitate Xin Xue's research and power.
Zhong Yan Pang Zheng watched Xin Xue leisurely climb down the vertical ladder, and the echo from the landing of his feet came from the ground.
"Wait a minute. ”
"Good. ”
He nodded, looking around at the large, dimly lit dormitory. Since Xin Xue didn't tell him not to look around, he paced around the room generously and admired. One wall was filled with books oozing moldy green, and on the huge red brown wooden table, Xin Xue's current book was neatly placed - "Xianqu Black Day Examination". I've never heard a name, and I don't know what it says, the books are closed very closely, as if deliberately avoiding Zhong Yan Pang Zheng's gaze.
He didn't care so much, he was ready to sit on Xin Xue's chair. Xin Xue was much taller than him, and the chair legs were naturally half long, of course he couldn't step on other people's cushions, so he kicked his legs hard and sat down on it steadily. His short stature gives him extra strength in his legs, and he is confident in his ability to jump.
"Xianqu Black Day Examination" ......" he pronounced the name.
Xianqu ...... It appears to be a county to the north. He touched his head, not sure. Either the county has changed its name, or it belongs to the former dynasty - forget it, it doesn't matter.
He thought to himself, turning the first page.
"Xianqu has its own precipitous place, the Jin people committed Yanzhou, Zhang Xiang and the retainers attacked it according to the Xianqu, and for another three years, the Jin people committed Minzhou again, lured the Zhang family to persuade them to surrender, Zhang Fake led the troops to attack, went north and begged to surrender, the Jinzhou lost six fields, the Jin people trapped Pei County, the soldiers burned and plundered, and the guards followed the ......" wrote a large number of fleeing ministers in the middle, as if in order to emphasize the authenticity of the historical materials, Zhong Yan Pang Zheng quickly skipped over these useless information, and saw the end, saying that the emperor at that time personally led a large army to cut down Jin——" It was the month, where the rebel general Zhang Xiang was stationed, and he couldn't see anything, only white light. This is the first proof of the 'black day'. ”
"It's just a folk story. ”
————
Xin Xue moved quickly, and returned to the room after three strokes and five divisions, dragging two dying people behind him.
"What is 'Black Day'?" Zhong Yan Pang Zheng put down the book.
In order to assist the princess to rule this country, he is quite familiar with the things that are circulated among the people, and the entertainment of the people can reflect the living conditions of the people, which is very simple information, but he has never heard of any "dark day", and his keen insight allows him to see through the perfunctory of Xin Xue at a glance.
Xin Xue sighed: "Are you going to ask all my books in the collection?"
"This is the imperial court's collection, not yours. ”
"Yes. ”
"Daylight?"
"If you look at it, you will know that it is a strange phenomenon that only occurs in the northern realm. While listening to Xin Xue's explanation, Zhong Yan Pang Zheng quickly opened the thin "Xianqu Black Day Examination", which was only ten pages. "It is said that if you do something bad and you do something bad in Xianqu - or if you pass through Xianqu after doing something wrong, you will be blind and you will only see white light. Because you can't see anything, it's called 'black', and because you can only see white, you add 'day'. ”
"What about 'White Night'?"
Zhong Yan Pang Zheng finished reading "Xianqu Black Day Examination", and the historical materials recorded in the follow-up are basically the same as the first one, all of which say that someone did something wrong, and then after Xianqu, he was finally found blind in both eyes, which is simply a collection of stories created in batches, only the same, no creativity. Some of the historical materials sound like the truth, very similar to real events, but whether it is the name of a person, a place, or a dynasty, Zhong Yan Pang Zheng has never heard of it, and some of the stories are pretentious, at first glance, they are fictional stories made up by someone to add to the terrifying atmosphere.
"Day and night, it sounds good. Xin Xue agreed, "Leave this alone, help me make room." ”
"Good ......"
Zhong Yan Pang Zheng thought to himself, obviously you are taller, why do you want me to do this kind of thing?
While reluctantly helping him lift the neatly covered carpet, the long-dull smell of blood suddenly filled the room.
The smell here is weird enough, why not have more? Zhong Yan Pang Zheng rolled up the carpet and silently watched Xin Xue carry out the next ritual.
Xinxue has a mysterious power called "Heaven and Earth Net". As long as he has the target's blood, he can find the whereabouts of the other party, but at the cost of his life, the secret passage in the house is connected to the underground dungeon, which contains many scum who are not sorry to die, specially used by Xin Xue's ability to use.
Now it's two at a time.
In the past, there was only one person, but the power of the mystical seems to have been used many times, and the heaven and earth net has been used until now, and more and more lives are needed.
When Xin Xue was destitute, he used to fight against local scoundrels, and it was his own life that was consumed by the use of heaven and earth nets, which is why he looked extremely poor - the evil result of abusing the power of mystical power in his youth.
The nets of heaven and earth are like wild beasts that do not know how to control themselves, hungry and thirsty for life.
This is one of the reasons why the princess did not let Xin Xue join the Gonglian team, the mysterious power is too uncontrollable, it is enough for the two sides to maintain the current stable cooperative relationship, in case there is an emergency situation in Xin Xue, just send the Gonglian team to deal with him.
Xin Xue placed the two prisoners on his left and right, took out a knife, and gently slashed the throat of the prisoner who was firmly bound. The two prisoners were stolen with towels in their mouths, their eyes widening as their blood flowed out of their bodies, their complexions gradually darkened, but the blood burst with vitality. I saw Xin Xue's hands and ten fingers doing strange movements—if he usually saw an adult doing this kind of action, Zhong Yan Pang Zheng would definitely feel stupid, but now, he held his breath and stared at this gripping ceremony.
The blood flowed like two thin snakes with eyes, snaking and crawling on the blood-stained stone floor. These thick clotted blood clots are the proof that Tianluo Net has used.
The blood snakes gradually intertwined, a net appeared in the dimly lit room, Zhong Yan Pang Zheng lit a candle, and the flickering firelight pushed the horror atmosphere to a climax.
The map appeared, it was the capital city, and there were no markings on it.
"You see, Chen Jian is dead. ”
Zhong Yan Pang Zheng stared for a moment: "In other words, he died in the capital." ”
"Hmm. ”
