Chapter Eighty-Eight: Mortal Fear

The residence of Councillor Lee in Ryugu Castle.

The four members of parliament gathered again.

"Did you find someone?" Lin asked proudly. But the fingers under the table that kept tapping showed his inner peace.

Li Xian replied, "According to the news from my people, the 'ghoul' has already found the woman, and he should be able to take it down soon, and then find the main messenger behind the scenes, which is not a problem for him." ”

"What about his strength?"

Lin asked proudly, "Is it like you said?" ”

"Don't worry," Li Xian replied lightly:

"The means of the know-it-all cannot be used against him, it is a madman who touches the taboo with flesh and blood, a fellow cursed by the gods.

Unless you kill him all at once, he will recover even if he takes heavy damage, and that's when his opponent dies......"

"Then what if, Lao Li, what kind of "knowers" you said made a move?" Councilor Zhou on the side asked.

"The Know-It-Knowers Don't ......"

Li Xian paused:

"Those who seek secrets, from the moment they enter the second door, will suffer a curse from the illusory world, although I don't know exactly what this curse is, but over time this curse will deepen, and it needs to be suppressed with special means, or satisfied......

For example, the "ghoul", his means of suppressing the curse is cannibalism......

And when the person who explores the secret touches the Third Heavenly Gate and becomes a Knower, this curse will feed back, giving the curse bearer more power, but it is also the beginning of entering madness and transforming into an inhuman thing......"

"Inhuman desires, inhuman powers......"

Li Xian glanced at the four of them:

"If our enemies were really Know-It-Knowers or even above, we wouldn't be able to sit here in peace and play the game of the house......

The three people present looked at each other, and they all saw the jealousy in each other's eyes.

For those of them who wield power, access to secrecy is not difficult.

Sitting only in the chair of power, even the most precious treasures will be offered.

Do they crave superhuman strength, the opportunity for immortality?

Of course thirsty!

But they didn't dare, on the one hand, because of the surveillance of the Imperial Defense Bureau.

On the other hand, exploring the hidden is really crazy.

The scariest thing is that you don't know if what you're looking for is really as good as you think.

After the delicate and gorgeous appearance was dissected, what kind of blood-drenched thing was hidden?

As parliamentarians, they have all been admonished to a greater or lesser extent by those in power:

"If your desire is power, money, wealth, and to live in peace, then don't touch anything that has to do with secrets, or it will backfire......

Secret is like a quagmire, never wonderful, and for mortals, death, silence, and longing for an afterlife that will never exist again is the best destination......

Li Xian added lightly, "In other words, the person who opposed us is dead!" ”

"That's great!"

Xu An laughed, reached under the table with one hand, and patted Li Xian's buttocks:

"Don't be so serious, come on, come on, I brought champagne from the second mountain and sea royal family, treasured for 82 years, let's celebrate in advance!"

…………

Outside Ryugu Castle.

The sound of collision and striking sounded like a raging storm.

The girl in red is as fast as a ghost, her ten fingers are churning, and her moves are poking at Ah Da's vital point.

On the side, Shi Laohan looked at Ah Da's eyes full of greed, and the crystal saliva at the corner of his mouth flowed, and he was sucked up with a snort.

Liu Wenjun said anxiously, "Miss Sultan, it seems that Brother Ah can't hold on, what can you do?" ”

The Sultan also looked ugly, "No way, my ability is effective for living people, and these two are no longer in the category of living people...... Didn't the messenger give you a mirror? Quickly use the mirror to sense, where is the messenger? ”

Liu Wenjun hurriedly took out the dressing mirror, but the mirror flashed this silver light.

This is where the true owner of the mirror senses its bearing.

And, this brightness shows that he is close at hand!

Liu Wenjun was immediately overjoyed.

And that's the time.

Bang.

The sound of the can being opened.

Shi Laohan, who was originally standing aside and looking at the three of them with a cat-and-mouse expression, suddenly exploded his head.

Black-red liquid splashed everywhere.

The smell of rancid smell instantly permeated the surroundings.

A shadow-clad figure carrying a hideous medicine hoe.

Appeared at the position of Shi Laohan three meters away.

Just dodged, the splash of black and red liquid.

"Accidentally, my hands itched, and when I saw such a big pig's head there, I couldn't help but open a can, but how did it feel wrong?"

Jiang Ge shook off the blood stains on the medicine hoe, looked at the three of them again and smiled, "I'm not late, am I?" ”

"Emissary!" Liu Wenjun exclaimed in surprise.

I wanted to rush over, but was pulled by the Sultan.

Jiang Ge also waved his hand and said, "Don't come here, this old thing is not dead yet." ”

As he spoke, he squinted at the old man who had lost his head, but was still standing upright.

"Truly...... It was actually seen. ”

A strange laugh came from the broken neck of Shi Laohan.

And if you look closely, you will find that the old man's wound is exposed, and there are no bones.

The red-white granulations grew, and they were quickly woven into a hideous head full of blood and no skin, and the strange laughter continued.

"No wonder it didn't feel right just now, it didn't have that kind of refreshing feeling, it was soft."

Jiang Ge looked at Shi Laohan, "It turns out that you have no bones for a long time." ”

"Truly...... Boy, you are very sharp, in order to complete the promotion, I shaved the bones out of my body one by one, and it hurt so much that I ate several mouthfuls of fragrant meat before I recovered and obtained this immortal body! ”

The skin on Shi Laohan's face grew rapidly, and almost instantaneously returned to his previous skinny appearance.

Then, Shi Laohan's gaze fell on the medicine hoe in Jiang Ge's hand, and he seemed to be surprised, and then suddenly,

"This hoe, it turns out that you are the inheritor of my junior brother! The medicine hoe fell into your hands, my dead ghost junior brother must have failed to be promoted and died, hahaha, after all, I am still the old man, I am better! ”

"Senior brother?" Jiang Ge raised his eyebrows, his medicine hoe was obtained from the medicine picker.

And the medicine picker is in a cave and gets the inheritance of a medicine picker......

"Oh? So, according to the generation, should I call you uncle? Are you a herb picker? Still is...... Pharmacists? ”

Jiang Ge licked his lips and said with a smile.

He was struggling to crack the "symbolic text" on the bronze box.

The medicine pickers are also dedicated to the "Yuanjun of Mountains and Seas".

If he could obtain the "secret inheritance" at the level of a pharmacist beginner, wouldn't it be so hard?

Does this count as a pillow when you are sleepy?
