The old red wooden door was slowly pushed open, rubbing against the ground with a hoarse "crunch" sound.

Qi Siqian withdrew his hand and looked inside the door with a complicated expression.

There was no light behind the wooden door, hollow like a bottomless pit, and darkness encroached on every corner of the room.

And in the dark night where you can't see your fingers, only the sound of chains winding and mopping the floor echoes.

The light entered the door from behind the two of them, faintly shining through the interior of the door.

Compared to the mansions, the style here is very different and very simple. There were no valuable paintings, no palatial illuminations, just pure emptiness.

The hostess's room is more like a cage than a cage.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Chen Qing frowned slightly.

With his extremely developed perception, he was able to see what was going on inside the door better than Qi Sixian.

In the pitch-black room, a rickety figure had its back to them, its hands trembling uncontrollably, as if it was grasping something.

A little light illuminated the figure in front of him, allowing Chen Qing to roughly see her outline.

Her body was as thin as skin and bones, and her body was pale from top to bottom, as if she hadn't been exposed to the sun for a long time. The long hair has also dried up. Like wilted ears of wheat in a field.

At the same time, Chen Qing also noticed that he was wearing a bloodstained white dress.

The dress may have not been washed for a long time, and it had a lot of dust, oil, and bloodstains that had long since solidified into a dark red.

This is exactly what Qi Siqian said - his mother stayed at home after her illness and never went out.

But Qi Siqian had previously said that his mother should have lost consciousness and been in a coma for many years.

But judging from the current situation, let alone being unconscious, Chen Qing could even feel some kind of powerful explosive power from the rickety back.

"If Qi Siqian is not deceiving, then there may be only one."

Chen Qing's hand pressed on the red wooden door, and his eyes flashed: "That is, at this moment, in his mother's body, not his mother herself!" ”

This would also explain why Qi Sixian's mother looked so weak, but Chen Qing could sense some kind of powerful strength from her.

Because her body is being "used".

Or to be more accurate.

Qi Sixian's mother is bearing the burden from the taboo!

"That's why the smell of pollution on her body is so strong," Chen Qing thought secretly in his heart, "This is also the reason why I can see through it, because I also have strong pollution on my body." ”

He also remembered what Qi Siqian had said before.

Both his mother and he were able to sense the pollution.

This doesn't mean that these two people are extraordinary, or that they are.

This only shows that their perception may be powerful.

"And the cult that deceived Qi Sixian's family before and said that he could make up for his mother's mother with his soul may be trying to increase the strength of his soul, so as to support Qi Sixian's mother to use the forbidden things for a longer time."

Because the time to use forbidden substances is related to the strength and soul strength of the transcendent.

The former cult organization will certainly not be able to achieve it, so it can only realize the latter.

So to some extent, they didn't coax Qi Siqian to find an ethereal soul that could indeed heal his mother.

But......

"At a glance, can you tell that Qi Sixian's mother's illness is the fault of the taboo, is that the sect leader well-informed, or is it because they themselves are taking advantage of this?"

Chen Qing didn't know the answer.

If it's the former, then the enemy he'll face next may be tricky.

But if it's the latter......

This means that the cult is oppressing Qi Sixian's mother and using her family at the same time.

Indeed, it is worthy of the name of cult.

One last glance at the rickety figure in the room.

Chen Qing turned around: "I already understand the symptoms. ”

He said to Qi Sixian, "The next thing you need is to prepare a little......

Before he could finish.

In the next second, Chen Qing's hand suddenly raised and slammed on the red wooden door next to him!

The heavy fist wind flashed in front of Qi Sixian, and his face hurt.

At the same time, he heard a loud noise in his ears, like a siege tower smashing a wooden stake on the city gate, and this blow shook the city gate like a falling rock!

The heavy red wooden door obviously had a tendency to fall backwards under his punch.

This made Qi Siqian dumbfounded.

He knew the strength of his own building, and he could not be shaken by a single punch.

At this time, he understood why the bearded Jiman was so enthusiastic about Chen Qing.

Because this power has far surpassed the limits of the human body, and even reached the level of those superpowers in the movie!

"This is the Transcendent......?!"

Qi Sixian's mood was stirring.

And next to him.

Chen Qing slowly withdrew his fist and turned his head to look behind him.

The figure with his back to him before had turned straight ahead at this moment, staring straight at him.

When he saw Qi Sixian's mother head-on, Chen Qing really understood what it meant to be "shaped and boneless".

If it weren't for the fact that there was still some skin on her face, Chen Qing would even think that he was looking at a white bone with burning eyes.

The two of them just looked at each other.

At this moment, Chen Qing sensed a more powerful pollution from the other party's body.

This contamination is almost equivalent to that of oneself at the time of Sequence Ten.

Although it sounds like a weak chicken, you must know that Chen Qing at that time was already equivalent to a humanoid taboo.

And now Qi Sixian's mother gives him a similar feeling.

It's just that she doesn't feel like an orthodox transcendent sequence, but more like a "distortion" caused by being burdened by taboos for too long.

She is not so much a humanoid taboo as an empty shell containing it.

"So, does a contraindication become like this if you use it for too long?"

Chen Qing thought thoughtfully.

Although he had heard of the effects of human use of taboo substances, he had never actually seen them.

Now I'm getting more informed.

Thinking so, he glanced back at the place where he had punched hard just now.

In the deep pit where the fist fell, a twisted pollution slowly dissipated.

It was this pollution that stabbed towards Chen Qing silently before.

If it weren't for Chen Qing's strong perception ability, perhaps Qi Siqian next to him would have been entangled in this pollution.

After perceiving the pollution, Chen Qing wrapped his fist with the Qi in his hand and scattered it with a single punch.

Obviously, his actions made "Qi Sixian's mother" stunned for a moment.

That's when the two of them met their eyes.

It was at this time that Qi Siqian next to him noticed an abnormality.

He looked inside, although he didn't have the same perception as Chen Qing, but through the faint light, he still saw the figure of his mother finally turning around: "Mom......!" ”

He opened his legs, as if he wanted to take two steps forward.

However, Chen Qing stopped his movements: "That's not your mother. ”

Chen Qing's voice was calm: "At least not all." ”

He stared at the figure on the other side who turned around as terrifying as white bones: "Who are you?" ”

Chen Qing's voice was heard.

The "skeleton" in front of him let out a shuddering shriek.

The sound was like a fingernail scraping a book cover, a blackboard, with a harsh ear that made people scream and scratch, just listening to it made Qi Siqian can't help but cover his ears and look at the "mother" in front of him in horror.

At this moment, he realized that what Chen Qing said was right.

It's not a human voice at all!

After laughing enough, the "skeleton" in front of him slowly spoke: "Your evening bell is near." ”

The skin on her face trembled with his laughter and movements, as if it was about to fall off her face.

This terrifying scene made Qi Sixian's eyes split.

Because it's his mother's body!

On the other side, the "skeleton" was still whispering: "The end of belonging to you is coming, you want to change something, but the final result is to be assimilated by it." ”

"You can't do anything, you can't do anything, and in the end you can only be tied up and drowned in the tide of this era. You will be swept up in the dust of fate. Even the being you are looking for will not be able to save you. ””

She stretched out her hand and grinned, "Even if you seek that truth, it will become a 'fallacy' here!" ”

Her words were so harsh, and her voice was so eerie. It's like an old witch in a fairy tale looking at the crucible in front of her and laughing sadly.

In this regard, Chen Qing only has two words.

"Silly [beep]."

He shook his head: "I thought you would say something shocking, but I didn't expect ......"

Chen Qing was really a little disappointed.

At first he thought the old witch would be able to tell a secret he didn't know.

As a result, after a long time, the "skeleton" in front of him didn't even know that Chen Qinghe was the same person.

This means that the old witch in front of her looks like a ghost, but in fact she has a very low profile.

If you don't even know your other identity, then the truth in these words must be ridiculously low.

So her words Chen Qing are all farts.

Therefore, Chen Qing did not have any burden and turned around and left without hesitation.

Don't forget to close the door before leaving.

Only the old witch inside the door was left stunned.

And that's the end of it?

Normally, you shouldn't ask "what's next", or "who are you?" or "what is your purpose?"

It was only when Chen Qing showed interest in these questions, and was suspicious of his own chatter, that the old witch could take advantage of this to make her own request.

But she didn't expect Chen Qing to turn around and leave so decisively.

Why don't you play your cards according to the routine?!

Shouldn't everyone who encounters the Riddler go back to the source and want to find out the mystery with curiosity?!

Why did you get to you and change your hexagram?!

In the old witch's bewildered eyes.

Of course, Chen Qing on the other side of the door would not say the reason.

"To be a Riddler in front of me?" He smiled inwardly.

Do you deserve it too?
