Chapter 18: The Attack of the Little Undead
I have to say that the dwarves are indeed very talented in mining and smelting, using those simple axes, pickaxes, chisels, and drills, the mine has been developed into a scale in a few days, and the height of Liang Ke does not need to bend down in the mine, nor does he have to worry about hitting his head, and the square mine is reinforced with pit wood all around, which looks stable and solid. The www.biquge.info mine winds downward, and every few steps there is a pine oil torch, which crackles and illuminates the mine very brightly. The three of them walked for less than three minutes before they came to the amethyst cave that Narondo had mentioned. Liang Ke took off the last torch outside the cave and shone it inside, and sure enough, as Narundo said, the cave was full of amethysts, and the torches shone brightly, as if the stars in the sky fell to the world, which made people intoxicated. It turns out that the so-called amethyst is the amethyst that Liang Ke knows! Liang Ke has seen a lot of amethyst, but a huge cave is all amethyst, Liang Ke has never thought of it.
"What's going on inside?" Liang Ke retracted his swaying and shaking thoughts, and asked Achilles secretly.
"There is a powerful spirit, the undead, which is your ghost. β
"Holy, I'm going to this time......! Can you enter?" out of instinct, Liang Ke was still a little afraid of seeing ghosts.
"This ...... Do you dare to enter?" Dan knew that the situation was serious at this time, and he didn't dare to joke anymore, but he still didn't answer Liang Ke directly.
"What do you mean?"
"With me, as long as you dare to enter, you can enter. To dare is to have courage and courage, and those dwarves are poisoned when they enter, because they are defenseless and do not know that what they see is fake, so they will be infected by the virus, lost in their own spiritual fantasy world, and deeply trapped in it. But now that you go in, you already know that the images are fake, so as long as you are bold enough, courageous enough, strong enough, and keep your mind, those illusions will not be able to hurt you. β
"Can't you make some magic to protect me from poisoning?"
"I'm a dark archmage, not a necromancer, as long as you hold on for a while, I can imprison this undead with spiritual magic, and then the toxins she casts will slowly subside, and you will be able to recover. β
"Then you can't go in by yourself and it's over. β
"You idiot, I'm an egg now, and I can only cast my magic through you with a life guardian contract. β
"Oh! I forgot about it. Liang Ke began to wonder if he was a precursor to some Alzheimer's disease.
"What do I need to do after I get in?" Liang Ke was still a little uneasy about what was about to happen.
"Stay true to your heart, don't be intimidated by what you see, stay awake and wait for me to complete that magic, it's as simple as that. Just in case, Egg explained the implementation steps in detail.
Liang Ke lingered at the door of the cave for five minutes, taking dozens of deep breaths, before finally making up his mind, and after making his absolute assurance to the patriarch and the high priest, he resolutely stepped into the cave. Although many possibilities were thought of in advance, it turned out that Liang Ke and Dan still underestimated the situation.
This is a place that is ten thousand times bloodier than the hell of Abi, the sky that was already extremely dark was covered by thick black-brown blood clouds, those clouds seemed to have pressed down to the eaves, and the blood rain pouring down from the clouds exuded a pungent fishy smell, and was wantonly splashed on the earth, and countless stumps and broken arms were buried under the broken walls and ruins all over the ground, and the blood flowing out of those broken limbs was already dirty, and the blood rain flowed into the small pool, and then the overflowing blood from the accumulated small pools spread again, winding like snakes, and dyed the muddy earth crimsonγ
The blood rain was majestic, obscuring the vision, but in the haze, you could still see two corpses hanging on the dead tree by the small pool, one was missing his left arm, the other was missing his right leg, and the black blood was still flowing. No, it wasn't a corpse, it was two living people, and the one with the missing right leg suddenly opened his eyeless eyes, stretched out his mutilated hands and threw himself on the other person's body, opened his bloody mouth, bit down on the man's neck, and then gulped down the blood gushing out of the artery. The person being sucked also suddenly roared and plunged his bone claws into the other's chest and abdomen, and in an instant, those liver and intestines were broken and flowed to the ground.
Even though Liang Ke had been a soldier and had the courage to be brave, he couldn't help but be shocked in the face of this terrifying scene! The two living corpses turned their heads to look at Liang Ke when they heard the sound, and then dragged their stumps, quickly climbed down the dead tree, climbed over the small pool, and let out a strange chirp in their mouths, and pounced on Liang Ke. When the living corpse looked at Liang Ke, Liang Ke seemed to be torn apart by life, because he finally saw their faces clearly, that ...... It was actually his father and mother, Liang Ke looked at his parents who pounced on him blankly, looked at the pale and shriveled face due to blood loss, looked at the expression of blood thirst and greed, and could no longer see the loving smile on his parents' faces.
When Liang Ke was shocked, It was too late to discover the danger in pain, his parents' hands had been inserted into his chest, his heart was in his mother's hands, and his father's mouth was holding the flesh that had just been torn off his body, Liang Ke finally understood that it was no longer his parents, so he began to try to escape, but how could Liang Ke, who had lost his heart, escape, in despair, he could only helplessly watch his body separate from other bodies, until the flesh and blood turned into mud on the ground and muddy mud in the small pool, until Liang Ke felt that he was only left with a head without a skull......
"Buzz...... ......It seemed that after a long time, Liang Ke felt as if thousands of bees were flying in his ears, and those sounds really couldn't make people sleep, so he had to slowly open his eyes and wake up.
"Did I fall asleep? huh? Did you sweat or pee your pants?" Liang Ke found himself lying on the hill made of amethysts, the eggs held in his hands, as if they had been pinched out of the water.
"You still have the face to ask, I was scared out of a cold sweat by scaring you coward, a useless thing, and it almost killed us both. Dan roared angrily at Liang Ke.
Liang Ke was confused by the egg's scolding, looked around, and didn't find anything abnormal, he shook his still not sober head and asked, "What do you mean?"
"I warned you beforehand, told you what was coming, and you were useless outside the door for five minutes before you came in. As a result, before you Aragorn Master came in and lasted ten seconds, the toxin broke through the spiritual world and fell headlong here. If I hadn't seen the opportunity early and dealt with it in time, I'm afraid we would both be lost in our own spiritual world forever like those fools outside. β
"Yes, yes, yes, you Lord Achilles are a good man, but you don't need to describe others as so unbearable, you haven't seen that scene, it's not something that can be described simply by being scary. Liang Ke's heart was on fire when he was scolded, and he ridiculed each other.
"You and I live together, what you see is what I see, how I don't know. But you can't be blamed for everything, this little guy's undead poison is indeed weird, ruthless, and unguardable. Not only can she directly create a materialized spiritual fog in the human spiritual world, making people lose in it, but the most powerful thing is her terrifying experience, which simply makes me, a dark magic master in hell, break out in a cold sweat. Dan saw that Liang Ke was a little angry, and gave him a step that was neither soft nor hard.
"That's it! It's not that our army is incompetent, it's that the enemy's firepower is too fierce. By the way, who is the little guy you are talking about?" Liang Ke hurriedly got off the donkey and diverted the topic.
"It's the person who casts the undead toxin, no, it should be called the undead, it's a ghost. A female ghost. Hey, hey!"
"Where is the female ghost?" As expected, when Liang Ke heard that there was really a ghost in this cave, he got up from the ground with a frightened grunt, raised a knife in his hand, and looked around vigilantly.
"Ahem, ahem, be careful, keep your demeanor. The egg pretended to cough dryly.
"Is it interesting?" Liang Ke quickly understood that the egg was playing tricks on himself.
"It's not interesting, but it's fun. Hey, hey!"
"Stop talking nonsense, tell me what's going on. Liang Ke knew that the danger had been lifted, and sat on the crystal hill again, waiting to listen to the story of the egg.
"Actually, the dwarves themselves are really to blame for the cause of this. β
"How?"
"Actually, this amethyst cave is someone's house, those stupid people used the mine pickaxe in their hands to demolish other people's houses, if you don't have to fight with them?"
"That's right, forced demolition is the most hateful. But who would live in this underground space with no doors, no windows, and no sunlight?"
"As I said, it's an undead who lives here, your ghosts. You know, ghosts are afraid of seeing light, they don't need to breathe air, they can't come into contact with humans, and most importantly, amethyst has the effect of calming the nerves and awakening the mind. Therefore, this cave is undoubtedly the best place for a ghost to live. I won't talk about the basic knowledge about the undead in the future. Achilles wasted no time in teaching Liang Ke another lesson.
"So what's going on now?"
"Just now, I found her before you lost consciousness, and then used a soul seal to seal her into your head. I had a brief conversation with her, and the kind little guy understood what we were here to do, so he gave you an antidote, and I think you might be interested in talking to her now. β
"What? You got her in my head? That is, I have a ghost living in my head?" Liang Ke jumped up like a cat that made someone else step on its tail. Although he is a magic idiot, he also understands the importance of the soul, if he wants to live, the soul is complete must be done, he heard his grandparents talk when he was a child, people have three souls and seven spirits, and if you lose any of them, you will not be able to save your life, and now you live in a female ghost in your spiritual world, isn't this "playing a lantern in the toilet ---- looking for death"?
"Yes, your head is so big, it's nothing to let the little girl spend the night, hehe!" the egg said to Liang Ke heartlessly.
"It's nothing, then why don't you let her live in your head?" Liang Ke patted the egg in his hand angrily.
"Have you ever seen a brain egg?"
"What about your teeth?"
"It's even less likely that the teeth have brains, and I really have some doubts about whether your brains are real or fake. Ya gave Liang Ke a rolling expression.
"Good...... Good...... I don't believe that you will never fall into the hands of Lao Tzu, you wait for me. Liang Ke felt that he was about to be by this symbiote.
"The wise Lord Aragon won't be as knowledgeable as my little hairy child!hehe!" Seeing that Liang Ke was really a little anxious, he quickly patted his ass.
"It's useless to talk less, how can I talk to her?" Liang Ke knew that entanglement with him would not lead to results, so he simply turned to the topic.
"When we established the guardian contract, your spiritual world was opened by that contract, as long as I am on your body, you can enter your spiritual world through that door at any time, just one thought, now you try. β
Liang Ke calmed down, and according to the method of Achilles, he came to a place that was both familiar and unfamiliar in a blink of an eye. What is familiar is that this world is like the earth in the previous life, the blue sky is hung with the golden sun, the high-rise buildings are lined up under the white clouds, the streets are neat, the green trees and red flowers on the street reflect each other, through those neat shop windows, you can see the candy neatly placed in the counter, everything is so familiar, this is the city where Liang Ke has lived for 18 years. But the strange thing is that there is no one in this clean city, yes, Liang Ke turned his mind and looked all over the city, and there was indeed no one.
"Big brother, are you looking for me?" Just as Liang Ke was wondering, a crisp and sweet voice like the Yali pear at the end of August appeared in Liang Ke's ears.
"You...... It's the ......" Liang Ke turned around, but couldn't find anyone who spoke, and then asked the air in confusion.
"Yes, I'm the undead, I'm so sorry I scared you just now. That terrible dragon lord said that you are a kind person, and will let me borrow to live in your spiritual world. You are so beautiful here, I have never seen such a magical place, thank you!"
As the sweet voice got closer and closer, a white mist slowly condensed in front of Liang Ke, and the fog became thicker and thicker, and finally converged into a human form under a soft white light, a white and tender little girl with a ponytail, wearing a yellow flower dress on a white background, and looking like she was seven or eight years old, came to Liang Ke. This child looks so innocent and lovely, clean and pure, as if it is transparent, and there is a trace of uneasiness and cowardice in her eyes, which makes people feel endless pity, and I can't wait to hold her in my arms and shelter her from the wind and rain.
"Big brother, are you angry that I took your candy? I'm so sorry! But the candy was so delicious that I couldn't hold back. In the future, Katyusha will definitely return it to her brother if she has money. The little undead saw Liang Ke standing there with a sluggish expression and didn't answer, thinking that he was angry that he had stolen the candy in the window.
"It's nothing, you can eat it if you like, and you don't need to spend money to add it anyway. Liang Ke scratched his head and smirked twice.
"Really? It seems that Lord Demon Dragon didn't lie to me, big brother is really a good person. Thank you!" Little Lori smiled happily at Liang Ke, then stretched out her little pink tongue and licked the lollipop in her hand.
"Your name is Katyusha, isn't it?" Liang Ke walked to the bench by the side of the road and sat down, and then motioned for the little undead to sit down as well.
"Yes, our uncles and aunts in the village also call me Little Sasha!" the little undead tilted his head and answered Liang Ke's question seriously.
"And how did you get to this place? I mean the cave where you used to live. β
"That was a long time ago, I just remember waking up that morning and my mom and dad woke me up from my sleep and told me it was raining outside, and it was raining so hard that it might be watery. The priests and priests had already left us and fled into the castle on the hill, so my father hid me in a high barn, left me some wheat cakes, and hurried to pick up my grandparents, who had gone down to work early. It rained for a long, long time, and I finished eating all the wheat cakes, but my mom and dad still didn't come back. I was hungry and cold, so I crawled out of the barn, but I saw that everything from heaven to earth was stained red with blood, and there were mutilated dead people everywhere, and I was so frightened that I stumbled home, but I saw ......" The little undead became more and more frightened, and at last I cried out.
"Okay, my brother already knows what happened next. Liang Ke hurriedly hugged the little undead in his arms, patted her thin back, and softly comforted her.
