Chapter 015: Flowers

And change requires power, and the existence of the Enlightenment Ceremony and the Dao Alliance is definitely not accidental, and Mo Fei guessed that there may have been some huge changes in the past three thousand years, which forced them to change the traditional way they have been all along.

But this change is undoubtedly good news for him, and then he just needs to collect information and find out the location of Yixian Town by the way, July 15, there is still more than a month before now, and it should be too late. However, during this period, it is best to find a "certificate of origin" for yourself.

Thinking about this, it didn't take long for the Saibian Inn to arrive. Murphy paid for the car, and as soon as he got out of the carriage, he had a feeling that something was wrong.

The street is too quiet, although there are not many guests here, but there are never broken people, and there are more than a dozen families living around, and the chickens and dogs bark on weekdays, and there is hardly a moment so quiet.

The silence around was terrifying, as if he was the only one left in this world.

Coming to the door of the inn, Mo Fei saw a carriage at a glance, different from the common caravan, this car is a foot long, more than two meters wide, the wooden windows are very delicately carved, and the roof is full of silk, which is very luxurious.

There were five or six tall horses in the stables, all of them quite powerful, and the stone troughs were full of bean bran, but the horses were stiff and motionless like statues, oblivious to what was in front of them.

This strange scene made Mo Fei vigilant, the hall of the inn was open, there was no one inside, and there were still drinks and food on a table, but there were no diners. Even Xiao Er and the store are gone.

The sun was shining outside, but Murphy felt a chill in his heart, he didn't know what was going on here, and he didn't want to know, but the memory had to be retrieved. After only a moment's hesitation, Mo Fei resolutely went up to the second floor.

He didn't dare to make a sound, and kept tiptoeing to the room where he had lived before. It was empty, no different from when he left, obviously it was still early, and there were no new residents, and Xiao Er hadn't cleaned it yet.

He came to the bed, took out a small sachet from the corner of the wall, pinched it with his hand, felt the hardness inside, and was relieved, at least the memory was not lost. Carrying the sachet back into his arms, he didn't dare to stay in this strange place for a long time, so he hurried downstairs and was about to sneak away.

But as soon as he walked to the door, he suddenly heard a cold snort, and then his body stiffened, as if a steel wire locked the joint bones, and an invisible giant hand grabbed it all and dragged it back again.

The giant hand came so quickly, so suddenly, that even Zhiqun couldn't react. Even after being caught, the body, the wisp of internal force that had just been trained, and even the spirit seemed to be temporarily paralyzed. When he woke up, Murphy found himself in a dimly lit underground.

His eyes had not yet adjusted to the change of light, and he could not see anything clearly, except for a strange, terrible drowning dissonance in the dimness, and many muffled whinings.

"Childe, I caught another kid. He heard a hoarse old voice behind him, and wanted to turn his head to look, but his body still wouldn't listen.

"Throw it over there. The answer to him was a cold male voice that seemed to emerge from the Nine Shadows Underground.

Murphy was thrown against the wall and fell to the ground. He noticed that there were other people around him, all of whom looked terrified and frightened. Before he could see who these people were, a light suddenly expanded from nowhere, and a strange scene appeared in Mo Fei's sight.

He saw a man, facing him sideways, tall and indistinguishable in the rapidly receding light, but seemingly very young, with shoulder-length hair, dressed in a light-colored robe, his right arm raised high, and carrying a strange thing in his hand.

If you look closely, it is clearly a person who has shrunk to the extreme, and the light actually emanates from him, piercing through his clothes, like a humanoid lantern that is being extinguished.

The face could still be vaguely identified as the innkeeper, but the original chubby round face was now thinner than a skeleton, and was still shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The drowning clicks heard earlier came from the human's mouth, not breathing—he was dead, it was the sound of gas being squeezed out of his throat.

In a matter of moments, the human form shrunk like a rickety monkey, and its clothes slipped down, and at the same time, a little blue light faded into darkness, and then flashed out again, as if penetrating the flesh and bones of the horrible corpse, making it like a crystal clear, and the distorted and twisted structure of the body was revealed, like a three-dimensional X-ray photograph.

With each flicker, the blue light became stronger, and the corpse was smaller, which was obviously an extremely terrifying sight, but Mo Fei couldn't take his eyes off it, he heard the whimpering muffled screams of many people around him, and his scalp exploded, but in this horror, there was an equally terrifying attraction, he stared straight at the melted human form, and in just a few moments, the corpse disappeared completely, and a dark blue almond-sized seed appeared in the young man's hand.

As soon as he saw that seed, Mo Fei felt a longing in his heart, as if after being hungry for more than half a month, he saw a good meal, or finally saw an oasis after trekking thousands of miles in the desert.

He heard himself swallow a mouthful of saliva, but a sudden pain in his mind was like a thousand steel needles suddenly piercing his fingers, but the unbearable pain was gone in a flash, and before he could scream, the pain was gone, and at the same time there was that inexplicable longing.

This is a warning from Zhiqun through the pain center, along with a lot of abnormal information about the body, including thalamic overexcitement, dopamine overproduction, and so on. Mo Fei immediately understood that he should have been subjected to a spiritual attack similar to illusion just now.

And the source of the attack was the dark blue seed.

Even now, the seed still looks like the most tempting delicacy. Even though Zhiqun had suppressed the feeding center of the thalamus and kept the satiety center excited, he could still feel that attraction.

The seed flickered for two moments, and suddenly a bud was pulled out of it, and then it elongated, gracefully rising, like a blue crystal snake, and like the ribbon of the whirling goddess, and after a while, a bud was conceived at the top, and suddenly bloomed, a little blue light bloomed, and the dim space seemed to be transformed into a brilliant galaxy.

The flower has six petals, the whole body is translucent like a gallium crystal, and the blue light flickers like a heartbeat, from the root to the stamen, as if there are countless fiber optic nerves pulsating, beautiful and indescribable. Murphy felt like he had never seen anything so beautiful.

But after an instant of blooming, a tiny luminous blue fruit gradually stood out in the center of the petals, and the flower began to wither rapidly.

In a few moments, the blue flower withered and turned into black ashes like burned confetti, leaving only a grain of rice in the man's palm.

With a sigh of satisfaction, the grain disappeared into his palm and disappeared completely.
