Wulin Chinese Network ., the fastest update of the reborn puppet is very popular with the latest chapter!
Mu Qing and Cicada looked up when they heard the sound, and saw a one-meter-square hole slowly appearing on the ceiling, and from the entrance of the cave, a bamboo ladder was slowly lowered, and there was white smoke that seemed to be nothing, curling down with a faint aroma.
Mu Qing climbed the bamboo ladder without thinking.
Cicada sneezes: "What kind of smoke is that?" Don't go up yet. ”
"The incense that guides the soul is not poisonous." Mu Qing said and entered the cave.
The cicada hurriedly followed, and after three or two steps, it arrived.
At the end of the ladder is the attic, with no windows, no lighting, and barely visible.
Cicada breath sneezed several times: "No, it was okay down there just now, but now it's all fragrant, and I can't smell where Xia Yuanshan is." ”
"Follow me." For Mu Qing, this is not a completely unfamiliar place.
She led the cicada to the center of the attic, palms facing up, summoned a ball of light, and threw it into the air.
The dim white light first shone on a bronze incense burner, and then, as the light brightened little by little, Mu Qing saw Xia Yuanshan.
He sat cross-legged on a futon not far from the censer, his whole body stiff, his eyes closed, and his face distorted.
Mu Qing slowly approached the past, staring at Xia Yuanshan's face all the time, dizzy, not knowing what to think.
"Don't be afraid, it's just an empty shell." The cicada's breath was very grinning, sniffing up and down Xia Yuan Mountain.
Mu Qing's whole person was blind, both a little happy to get out of control from now on, and a little unbelieving that Xia Yuanshan would die so easily, and at the same time, she was still very dazed, not knowing what to do next.
The cicada's breath circled around Xia Yuanshan a few times: "It seems that he took out his soul by himself." ”
"Yes, he wants to assimilate me." Mu Qing said softly.
Cicada thought for a while, and said "um": "If you want to refine the clone puppet, it's almost time to assimilate." ”
"You know the doppelganger puppets too?" Mu Qing's gaze finally left Xia Yuanshan.
Cicada nodded: "I know a few people from Twilight, of course I know the doppelganger, and it's not a secret." ”
"Why didn't you tell me?" Mu Qing felt as if everyone here was hiding something from her.
"You didn't ask." Cicada's face was full of displeasure, "Just know that if you listen to Xia Yuanshan, you can either chat blindly with An Ruomu." ”
Mu Qing was not in the mood to quarrel with it, so she didn't talk.
"Having said that, even if he has been abolished for hundreds of years of cultivation, he is still much more powerful than you before, why did he get into the puppet and be eaten by you?" The cicada breath couldn't figure it out.
Mu Qing still didn't squeak - she didn't know, and she began to distrust the cicada and didn't want to say it.
"Let's go." Cicada didn't mind Mu Qing's silence and turned around to leave.
I didn't know that when I raised my foot, the entrance to the cave was slammed shut.
The cicada was stunned for a moment and looked back at Mu Qing.
Mu Qing said expressionlessly: "You said, you want the things in the puppet, but you don't want to see my soul scattered, why?" ”
Cicada's eyes flashed with doubt, but she didn't answer.
"You are all masters, you have to have strength and strength, you want spells to know how to spell, I don't know anything, you can't care about my life or death at all - you are the same as Xia Yuanshan and Bai Ya." Mu Qing's face became gloomy, "Xia Yuanshan said to help me, but the result was to refine me into his puppet; Bai Li said to help me, but the result was to make me have a different heart for Xia Yuanshan, so as to exclude his soul; Now, you're saying you're going to help me. ”
Still silent, Cicada sat down.
"The things in the puppet are so good, everyone wants to get them by any means, why do you care if I will die?" Mu Qing also sat on the ground by the incense burner, "You said this just to let me go with you, whether it is looking for a puppeteer or a witch master, as long as you can separate my obstructive soul, it is good." You only care if the puppet is intact or not, whether it will hurt the contents of the puppet, me, it is the dirt attached to the bowl, as long as it is wiped clean, no one will care. ”
"I said I was going to take you to Twilight, but I didn't say I wanted to help you." The cicada finally spoke.
Mu Qing opened her mouth to refute, but when she thought about it, she thought that she really didn't hear the cicada say the word "help", and she couldn't help but stop talking.
Cicada sighed: "I'll tell you the truth, I want to eat you." ”
Hearing this, Mu Qing unconsciously moved to the side, so as to stay away from the cicada.
"You said that you came from another world and had no ability, but when the puppeteer came to look for you, he swallowed his soul hard, if this is called incompetence, what is ability? Besides, in addition to Xia Yuanshan, you also fused with another soul who doesn't know who, if I eat you, plus the treasure in the puppet, I can walk sideways wherever I go. The cicada tilted its head, looking forward to a better future.
"I really don't have much power, I really don't know what's going on, it's like a dream." Mu Qing was quite inexplicable.
"Sometimes, dreams come true." The eyes of the cicada shimmered.
Mu Qing waved her hand, not wanting to continue the topic: "In short, I won't go with you, and you don't want to go out." ”
"A broken house can't stop me." The cicada's breath was disdainful.
"The house isn't too good, but the attic still took some thought." Mu Qing smiled, "This is a place to store the body, and you can't let people go in and out casually." ”
Cicada Xi stared at Mu Qing for a while, and said, "Your current appearance is really similar to that of a puppeteer." ”
"Don't talk nonsense!" Mu Qing subconsciously denied it.
"Listen to what you say, look at the way you speak, hehe, come with me, find other puppeteers to learn from a teacher, maybe you can be famous in the world in the future." The cicada teased.
Mu Qing didn't make a sound, don't look away - she didn't notice the changes in herself, and she was secretly frightened.
In fact, the previous panic and helplessness have not disappeared, but they have weakened, and it is difficult to detect if you don't feel it carefully. Now, Mu Qing is ambitious, she wants to be the king and hegemon, and she wants to see people surrender to her feet; She believes in the survival of the fittest, and for those who are not strong enough, they want to end it with their own hands; She is suspicious of everything, everything is from the most self-interested point of view, and as for whether to harm others or not, she has no time to think about it.
"How? Let's go. Cicada slapped the floor with her paws, "Maybe you're better than me when you come out of the puppet, and the two of us, maybe who's going to eat whom." ”
"No, stay here." Mu Qing refused, "I'm made of wood, so I don't need to eat, drink, or sleep." What about you? How long can you last without eating or drinking? ”
After finishing speaking, she looked at the top of her head: "This place is too small, I can't even stand up straight, if you change your body, I'm afraid I won't be able to turn away." ”
The attic is a triangular void from the ceiling to the roof on the second floor, and the highest point is only two meters, when Mu Qing came in, it was a cat waist for a long time, and if the cicada breath turned into a giant beast, it would indeed be stuck.
"No need to transform, I can eat you now." The voice of the cicada's breath was muffled.
"If you break the puppet, the contents will be destroyed." Mu Qing knocked on her arm.
The cicada roared, jumped up, and moved as fast as lightning, and in the blink of an eye, he came to Mu Qing, and his two front paws stepped on Mu Qing's chest.
Mu Qing felt a strong attack, and she couldn't resist at all, and was immediately pushed to the ground.
The cicada's breath stretched out its claws and stepped on Mu Qing's throat.
Mu Qing couldn't move at all.
"You have some ability, but it's not enough to be my enemy." Cicada lowered her head and leaned in front of Mu Qing, almost touching the tip of her nose, "If I want to dominate the world, thousands of years ago, the world was mine, and I don't need to wait until now." The things in the puppet can get the best, and it doesn't matter if you can't get it. Don't mess with me, it's ......"
"How?" Mu Qing snorted hoarsely and struggled to interrupt it.
This naked provocation made the cicada breath shine, and immediately took away the paw that stepped on Mu Qing's throat and bit it down.
Mu Qing thought that her breathing was just pretending, but after being choked, she realized that she needed to breathe.
The teeth of the cicada only penetrated the epidermis, but they clenched Mu Qing's throat just right.
Mu Qing's mouth was wide open, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't breathe in a single star.
After some time, she began to feel dizzy, first with Venus in front of her, and then black for a while.
With the last of her strength, she slowly raised her hand, summoned a ball of light, and slammed it on the back of the cicada.
The cicada's breath only trembled slightly, and its mouth did not relax at all.
Mu Qing was dizzy and had lost her vision.
Is she going to die? She's going to die. Dead or dead, leave this disturbance. Thinking back to what happened to her, she was tired all day long, living in lies and insecurity, everyone staring at the puppet, everyone was talking about it, no one cared about her thoughts, even her life.
No, you can't die, you haven't dominated the world yet, you haven't razed Qingzhengtang to the ground. Mu Qing encouraged herself.
But, is this really what she wants?
Mu Qing's temples ached and jumped.
What if you can't die? What if the soul is defective? She thought of what Xia Yuanshan had said. If she becomes like that, she will not be able to reach the underworld, she will not be able to enter the city of vain, and she can only wander aimlessly on the ground with the only remaining hatred.
"Please help me kill Xia Yuanshan." Suddenly, Qu You's voice sounded in his ears.
He's dead, and I've helped you. Mu Qing said secretly.
"My soul is for you, please help me kill Xia Yuanshan." Qu You's words didn't stop.
That's right, people gave you their souls, and they merged with you, so you just don't want it, do you give up? Mu Qing blamed herself a little.
However, in the next second, exhaustion hit her, washing away all the thoughts in her head.
At this time, the pressure in the throat suddenly loosened, and fresh air rushed in.
Mu Qing instinctively took a deep breath.
"Is it uncomfortable?" Cicada asked lightly.
Mu Qing's eyes were blurry, and she couldn't take care of anything other than gasping for air.
"You don't have to eat, drink, or sleep, but you still have to gasp." The cicada did not raise its head, and the tips of its canine teeth rubbed against Mu Qing's skin.
"We ...... Make a deal...... "Mu Qing knew very well that it would not give up on this.
