818. Will you kill me
Hearing this, the matriarch was silent for a moment.
She just looked at Shen Li quietly.
Shen Li didn't feel that he had said anything wrong, and looked at her calmly and didn't make a sound.
Suddenly, the matriarch asked, "So in your eyes, do you think I deserve to die too?" β
Shen Li's tone was light, and he said very neutrally: "Those are the karma accumulated by your ancestors. You're just a person hundreds of years later, and you haven't done what they did back then, so it stands to reason that you can't be tired. Besides, you didn't enjoy their glory at that time, but you have to bear the hardships they left behind, which is already a kind of revenge. But you don't seem to think that your ancestors are at fault, and you are also using the divine object to cultivate. β
She paused and said, "When you took over the fetish as a child, the cause and effect of your predecessor has already fallen on you. If you really want to take revenge in the future and want to rejuvenate the clan, what will happen to you, you will also be to blame. β
The way of heaven has always been fair.
If you want to have something, you have to pay a price.
There is no reason why you can only enjoy benefits without recognizing obligations and responsibilities.
The matriarch looked at Shen Li fixedly, and suddenly took a step forward.
The distance between the two became close.
The matriarch was also defenseless, looking extremely harmless on the surface, as if Shen Li could easily kill her without much effort.
"You're here with Moro. He longs for the extinction of all our ancient Qiang people. What about you, are you really going to kill me? She asked softly, her unfluctuating black eyes staring at Shen Li.
Shen Li's gaze swept over her neck, and said lightly: "I don't have the need or reason to kill you at this time. β
"Don't you blame me for detaining that foreign man?" The matriarch said.
Shen Li stated the facts: "I was already angry about this last night. Later, when I saw him, I also learned from him that he had made an agreement with you and left it of his own free will. Why, then, should I do it to you? β
The matriarch looked at Shen Li speechlessly.
Just when Shen Li thought that she would not say anything more, he suddenly heard her say, "What about the future?" β
ββ¦β¦ What? β
"I know you're here for my fetish."
The matriarch said very calmly, as if she was just talking about a trivial matter, but her words below made Shen Li a little unprepared.
"Actually, I don't have to wait two days, I can tell you right now," she said. You can't take away the fetish. I am the most gifted in our clan, and now I have long surpassed my ancestors in cultivation. Because of this, I also touched the secrets of Shenwu that they did not know. β
"For example, when the practice crosses the threshold of what they thought was certain death, I would merge with the gods. In this way, even if my whole body is alienated, I can rely on the gods to live for a long time. Correspondingly, the fetish will be goodbye and cannot be separated from meβin any form. β
Shen Li frowned.
The matriarch's voice became soft, and she raised her hand on Shen Li's shoulder, and said, "Of course, if I die, all these restrictions will disappear. After all, a fetish is a fetish, and I rely on it, but it does not depend on me, it can only be restricted for me. I'm gone, and it's naturally able to get out of it. β
"So, if you want to take away the artifact, there is only one way - kill me."
"So you're going to kill me?"
The matriarch looked at Shen Li gently.
She watched very attentively, which would give people the illusion that it was her cherished treasure, and that no matter what she asked her to do, even if it was a sentence to die, she could do it immediately.
Shen Li also had such an illusion.
The premise is to ignore that the matriarch's hand has quietly moved to her fragile neck.
Danger lurks in the shadows.
A little thought about it is creepy.
Shen Li's tone was light: "And your rubbing." Solve the ...... of the development of India"
"No, either." The matriarch said, "As I said, I've passed the threshold of rubbing. What's so good about rubbing, if you are not careful, you may be unable to escape death due to being eaten by a fetish. And he is constrained by it for the rest of his life. Fusion will not be countered. β
Shen Li said: "But you are not completely alienated. β
The matriarch smiled, "But my alienation is fast. Do you know, my grandfather and them, who are over half a hundred years old, will have the level of alienation that I have. But it only takes me less than half a year to be completely alienated. Now, I've become deeply integrated with the fetish. To take it away, you have to kill me. β
This time, Shen Li looked at her steadily, "You can stop fusing it." β
"I can't. This process is no longer out of my control. β
Seeing that Shen Li didn't believe it, the matriarch simply grabbed her hand and put it on her waist and abdomen.
The touch of the hand is different from the normal texture.
Hard-boned.
"In a few days, I'll be petrified here. When my heart is petrified, the fetish will become one with me. The matriarch smiled and asked.
"So, are you going to kill me to take away the artifact?"
"I can give you this chance."
"It's just that, as you said cause and effect, you also have to give me what I want in exchange."
Shen Li's eyes deepened and asked, "What do you want?" β
The matriarch looked at Shen Li and did not speak.
The meaning is self-evident.
Shen Li withdrew his hand and said coldly: "I'm not interested in your life, but I must also take away the artifact." Rest assured, I will think of a suitable way to strip it. β
The matriarch sighed a little regretfully, and seemed to be a little helpless, as if to say, "I obviously gave you such a foolproof opportunity, why don't you seize it."
"Stay with me again." The matriarch said.
Shen Li pinched his fingertips and said, "What to do?" Standing here with you? Instead of that, I'd better go to my friends and see what they can do. β
"You come with me."
The matriarch ignored her, turned and walked to the opposite wall, pressing a bulge on it.
Immediately, there was a muffled sound, and a stone wall on the wall slowly rose, and it turned out to be a secret door.
As it opened, a cold wind and snow poured in outside.
Looking out, it is clearly a cliff.
Shen Li: "......? β
"There, that's the Tianchi I cultivated as a child."
The matriarch pointed to the distant mountains, and her voice was a little ethereal and illusory.
"At that time, I literally almost died in it. But then I survived. Later, in order to cultivate, I couldn't always look for death again, survive, and then look for death. She said.
Shen Li couldn't figure out the meaning of her move for a while, and went over and asked, "So?" β
"You can accompany me here to see the scenery." The matriarch said.
Shen Li: "......? Are you serious? β
The matriarch was very serious: "In the past, I could only watch here alone, and no one could accompany me. Now I'd like someone to watch with me. β
Shen Li sneezed from the wind and snow, "What are you doing here?" β
"There's nothing else to do."
βοΌ You're not going to play with the people......"
"Grandpa didn't let me, he said I could only cultivate."
The matriarch said calmly: "In the past, apart from cultivating, the only time I could have for myself was to look at the distance here. β
