Chapter 55: The Choice
Before this, I had been thinking about what the identity of this ghost face was, why he would help me again and again, and at the same time, I often wondered what the face hidden under the mask looked like.
Until this point, when I saw that face clearly, I couldn't accept it for a while.
It was a face that looked exactly like mine, but after twenty years of erosion, that face looked a little more vicissitudes and old age.
"Father!"
Just as when I saw the bridegroom who looked exactly like me in the illusion before, I was left with not only shock, but also endless sorrow and helplessness.
I didn't expect that this father, who had never met me, would actually be the ghost face of this vain city lord, who was killed by Daogu along with the people of Dongmen Village twenty years ago. Then he came to this city of vain death, I don't know what he went through, why he became the right-hand man of the city lord of vain death, maybe. He has been waiting for me to come, and then helped me succeed in obtaining the Hell Seal.
Ghostface was choked by the neck of the dead city lord and lifted in mid-air, but he did not show the slightest look of fear and pain, almost at the same time. Suddenly, two figures fell from the castle tower, and then were strangled in the air by an iron chain around their necks.
Those two figures turned out to be Wang Feiyang and Lu Li.
Both of them were still alive, but their faces were full of pain and hideousness. The chain strangled their necks so hard that their entire faces turned purple, and the green tendons on their foreheads burst one by one, as if they would be strangled to death by the chain at any moment.
My heart sank all at once. Then desperately ran towards the side of the city tower, a team of Yin soldiers wearing red armor instantly blocked my way, but there was a cold voice from the city lord who died in vain: "Nine Yin Absolute Vein, I definitely want the Hell Monarch Seal, but your Hell Monarch Seal can only be exchanged for the life of one party." ”
My heart sank, and I stared at the city lord in vain, asking him what he wanted to do.
"The lives of your two brothers or your father's lives, you choose!"
At this moment, my whole mind was completely confused, this is the so-called good drama in the mouth of the vain city lord, I don't understand why he is so cruel, he has to make such a painful choice.
On one side is my biological father. Although he was dead when I was born, blood is thicker than water.
On the other side are two good brothers who were born and died with me, between them, I can only choose one side to survive, I didn't expect that the problem of this daughter-in-law and my mother falling into the water at the same time was actually encountered by me.
To be honest, I really didn't know how to choose, and for a while I stood there with a blank face, not knowing what to do.
Over there, the cold voice of the city lord came again: "Nine Yin Absolute Vein, I can give you the opportunity, as for who to protect, you have to consider hurrying, because I am worried that they will not last long." ”
My heart trembled, and I raised my head suddenly, and I saw that Wang Feiyang and Lu Li on the city wall had already begun to roll their eyes, which means that if they didn't remove the two iron chains around their necks, it was very likely that they would die in the next second.
At the same time, the ghost-faced marquis who was choked by the city lord in vain also began to roll his eyes, and as the ghost-faced marquis's strength became stronger and stronger, there was a clicking sound on his neck.
I first glanced at Lu Li and Wang Feiyang on the city wall, and then moved my eyes to my father, if I save one party, I will immediately kill the other party, but if I don't choose. But it will kill both at the same time.
However, no one can understand the entanglement in my heart, if I didn't know that the ghost face was actually my father, I would not hesitate to choose to save Lu Li and Wang Feiyang, but now...
Just when my heart was still struggling with pain, my father's painful voice suddenly came from there: "Dao'er, I'm sorry for you, remember my words." Live well. ”
I was shocked, and subconsciously shouted no, but it was too late, and suddenly my father screamed in pain. Immediately after a few bangs, several blood holes instantly appeared on his body.
In order not to make me make such a painful choice, my father actually chose to commit suicide.
His entire body slipped from the palm of the dead city lord, and then he fell to his knees, and a heart-rending pain came from the bottom of my heart, and I even felt like my whole body was about to explode.
"The yellow spring is endless, the black law is boundless, and the eight directions are prohibited. Five Elements Slaughter Immortals! ”
I bit my fingertips, letting the blood keep flowing out of my fingertips, and then while reciting the mantra of the Yellow Spring Mantra, I began to draw the totem of the Yellow Spring Mantra in the air, and in my body, a powerful energy began to churn along my meridians, and finally, a figure holding a war knife came out of the totem, and then moved behind me.
Perhaps it was because I felt the terrifying aura emanating from my body, and the Yin soldiers in red armor around me all looked frightened, and I had red eyes, driving the black shadow behind me all the way to attack the Yin soldiers everywhere. Almost one by one, it was killed until the city lord was killed in vain.
The Dead City Lord looked excited, saying that this was the legendary Yellow Spring Curse, and that it was a Yellow Spring Spell that needed to be extracted from the power of the Hell Monarch's Seal to be able to cast.
I didn't say a word, and drove the black shadow to slash at the city lord who was killed in vain, but I didn't expect this knife to slash past without causing him any damage, just making his whole person take a few steps back.
I wasn't too surprised, because I knew in my heart what I was capable of. Even if there is the Yellow Spring Curse, in front of this unfathomable strength of the Vain Death City Lord, he is only an ant.
As I put away my sword, I took the opportunity to look at the two iron chains on the city wall, and the chains broke. Wang Feiyang and Lu Li fell heavily from the city wall.
Fortunately, the two of them didn't hang up, and after coughing violently for a while, they all slowly stood up, and then Wang Feiyang pulled out the knife on his waist, and Lu Li recited the mantra of a sword duel.
I was the first to arrest my father. I found that my palm passed through his body, and he had gradually become transparent, which was a precursor to the disappearance of his soul.
"Nope! No! ”
I kept scratching my hands at my father's body, but I didn't feel the slightest touch of my skin. My father still had a faint smile on his face, and then he slowly stretched out his palm, wanting to touch my face, but this simplest happiness had already turned into the most extravagant delusion!
"Well, live!"
It was the first and last word he said to me after I knew it was my father, and after saying that, his body began to dissipate at a speed visible to the naked eye until it turned into countless pieces.
Over there, the monkey who was lying on the ground and couldn't afford to be seriously injured actually rushed towards us like crazy after seeing this scene, and then there was a bang, and the monkey actually crashed to death on the city wall.
I stared blankly at the corpse of the monkey, and then at my father, who had already broken into pieces in my arms, and I felt like my whole body was about to collapse.
There was a sigh from the dead city lord over there: "A good father-son love, a good brotherly love, a good master-servant love, but in my life, the most hated thing is love!" ”
After saying this. The city lord jumped up to the city tower, and then hugged the bewitching woman and turned around, and above, the surprised voice of the bewitching woman came: "City Lord, you are crying!" ”
The face of the city lord suddenly turned cold, as if this bewitching woman had stabbed him in the backbone, he suddenly buckled the bewitching woman's heavenly spirit cover, and with a bang, the bewitching woman's entire head collapsed into a blood mist.
"Xiucai, kill them!" The Vain Death City Lord sighed, and gave Yin Yang Xiucai the final order lightly: "Seize the Hell Monarch Seal!" ”
As soon as the words fell, Yin Yang Xiu moved to our side in an instant, and slapped at me with a palm, I hurriedly drove the black shadow behind me to resist, but although this Huangquan spell was powerful, but my own strength was too weak, and this black shadow only blocked Yin Yang Xiu with one blow, and it was shot away.
At the same time, a large number of Yin soldiers surrounded us, and I could no longer cast the Yellow Spring Spell, because this was already my limit.
Just when the three of us thought that we were going to die, in the rolling yellow sand, the voice of the old man Diyi suddenly sounded: "It's late, it's a step too late!" ”
