Volume 2 Sacrifice Chapter 51 Seeking the Skin of the Tiger
Fear of light, this is the biggest difficulty that needs to be overcome after the ember fire incarnates as a 'ghost', like other ghosts, the ember fire yang life is gone, and the yin and evil qi accompanies the left and right.
If Ember wants to avoid the Nest Enchantment, the only way to find the flaw in the Eight Pillars Enchantment is to find the flaw in the Eight-Pillar Enchantment, but if he breaks through the enchantment, it is obviously difficult for Ember to return to the human world with his current ghostly body.
Even if he returns to the human world, he will also be driven out by the righteous path of the human world, and in the end he will still be beaten back to his original form.
Therefore, embers need to be possessed by people in order to walk freely in the world.
But possessing people is a disaster to the world and hurting the innocent, contrary to the ancestral precept of sewing the corpse, and the ember must not do anything like other evil ghosts.
Yu Huo suddenly remembered that Master Jing Shuilou had mentioned that some of the side techniques of the dark lantern can be said to be sideways, but this kind of small skill can play a key role at a critical time, and can even save lives.
It not only illuminates the earth, but also the light of hell, and its existence represents hope and symbolizes the future.
If you can use the light of the dark lamp to cover yourself from the sky and the sun, and dissipate the haze of the light, it is a way to get the best of both worlds.
However, the premise is that the embers can take away the dark lamp.
The dark lamp is at the gate of the lair, and there are only two keys to open the door of the hive, one is in the hands of the ghost head, and the other is naturally in the hands of the spirit woman.
The Lingpo's attitude towards Ember leaving the nest was already very clear, and she did not support or oppose it.
It was Lingpo's neutral attitude that made it completely difficult for Ember, and it was basically impossible to get the key to open the door from Lingpo.
Then, if you want to open the door of the lair and get the key to the dark lamp, the only one is the ghost head.
The ghost head is suspicious in life, never shows people with a real face, and he under the mask makes people feel unfathomable and unpredictable, and the means behind it are more ruthless and terrifying.
It is said that this key is carried by the Oni Head day and night, and he never leaves him.
Besides, deep in the hinterland of his lair, the lighthouse has always been heavily guarded and full of mechanisms, and it is almost impossible to get close to him.
Anyone approached him would end up in a dead end, so Ember immediately dismissed his plan to steal the key.
You can't steal or rob, how can you get the key in the hands of the ghost head?
Ember suddenly thought of someone.
This person is none other than Ah Die, who forced the sacrifice before, and Ah Die is a close person to the ghost head.
Although she is not as favored by the Ghost Head as the Red Whisk Girl, Ah Die's life was given by the Ghost Head, so naturally she became the Ghost Head's person.
Based on the analysis of the current situation, only she can get close to the Oni-sama.
But Yu Huo has no friendship with this woman, and it is obviously impossible to let a stranger who meets in Pingshui help him.
But Yu Huo is the heir of the sewing corpse, he can be regarded as half a businessman, he can't afford to be unprofitable, and he pays attention to interests and returns in everything.
If the friendship with Ah Die can start from a business, it may not be impossible.
Regarding Ah Die's life experience, Yu Huo learned a little from Lai Changqing, this woman's life experience is miserable and pitiful, and it is the same before and after death.
And the secret of the ghost head's soothing hearts lies in taking advantage of the struggle and fragility of human nature before death, as well as resentment and unwillingness after death.
In this lair, it is through this that Lord Ghost Head is demagogic, but it is expected by everyone and the people's livelihood is wanted, I have to say that this is the cleverness of Lord Ghost's means.
Ah Die is obedient and loyal to the ghost head, and it is by the ghost head that he takes advantage of this, so that he will regard the ghost head as his benefactor and dependence, or the last straw in the ghost head's beating.
The last straw, as long as you take advantage of the weakness and crush it, you can easily make it desperate.
And the embers are to make Ah Die desperate, and after despair, give her hope, you can change her perception of herself, which is a new cognition.
"I'm sorry about your death, but for the murderer who humiliated your body and killed you, that's it? Are you going to hide here for the rest of your life? Endure this endless humiliation and trampling on your dignity? β
In the dark corner of the nest, Ember found Ah Die, who was sitting alone in the dark and secretly sobbing, at this time, she may have remembered the unbearable past, maybe because her death was not worth it, or maybe she couldn't get justice for her grievances and sighed.
The sudden appearance of the embers made Ah Die stand up vigilantly, and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes while the embers were not paying attention.
Who said that the evil ghost is ruthless, it is not ruthless, but it is just a sad place in the future.
"Is that you? The corpse sewer who just sacrificed? β
Ah Die's panic, as well as her hurried and unconcealable panic, showed that what Yu Huo said just now had hit a sore spot in her heart.
"That's right, it's me, I'm here to take you away."
Ember is straight to the point, for a woman like Ah Die, she needs a dose of fierce medicine, and she can't get it at all if she plays Tai Chi in a roundabout way.
"I'm not leaving here, this is my home, I'm not going to leave here."
At this time, Ah Die was like a child who had lost his soul, but his words revealed a little wavering, which made Yu Huo see the hope of a breakthrough.
"Exactly, let me introduce it, my name is Yu Huo, the descendant disciple of the sewing corpse, which is specially for you souls and evil ghosts to sew the corpse into the burial, so that you can find a good home after death, and no longer suffer for life and resentment for death."
Ember brought out the fact that he was the heir of the sewing corpse, so that Ah Die could let down his guard and get closer to her.
"Hahaha, are you here to be funny? Aren't you now a ghost yourself? β
Ah Die couldn't help but purse her lips and laughed, the embers sacrificed the dark lamp, but there was a lot of trouble in the nest, everyone in the nest knew about it, and the embers made a great contribution to the sacrifice of the dark lamp.
"That's right, I'm just like you now, I'm a ghost, so we're going to leave here and return to the world, but what is not done, you just watch your murderer live a chic and free life, let him get away with it?"
Yu Huo's words completely touched Ah Die's last line of defense, and the murderer who defiled her and killed her has not been brought to justice so far, and is still alive and well.
This made the fire of revenge buried deep in her heart ignite again, and her eyes were full of murder and violence.
"Tell me, what do you need me to do?"
Seeing that Ah Die had already boarded the boat, Yu Huo breathed a sigh of relief, and said seriously: "To leave the nest, you must have one thing, otherwise, there is no way to break through the barrier of the nest." β
"You're talking about...... Dark Lamp? β
Ah Die is a smart woman, before that, she had possessed people and lurked in the world, just to find the whereabouts of this dark lamp, and now what Yu Huo mentioned, naturally the first thing that came to mind was it.
"That's right, only the light of the dark lamp can cover up the evil aura of our ghosts, and only under its guidance can we leave safely."
Ember didn't mention the key, but knocked on the side to let Ah Die imagine for himself, and sure enough, he didn't disappoint Ember, Ah Die continued: "The dark lamp is at the door of the hive, and if you want to open the door of the hive, you must first get the key...... You mean, you need me to get the key to the Oni Head? β
"That's right, getting the key is just the first step in this plan."
Bingxue's clever Ah Die told the true purpose of the ember, which refreshed the stereotype of the embern of this hard-working woman.
Prior to this, Yu Huo simply thought that a woman like Ah Die was a vase without a brain, but it was not simple to think of her, and on the premise that Yu Huo did not mention the key, he could think of this extent, which shows its depth.
"Once you get the key, you can open the door to the Hive, but I don't think you know what the Hive Gate is, right?"
Ah Die does not approve of Ember Fire's plan to steal the Dark Lamp, and even thinks that Ember is too naΓ―ve.
You know, the Gate of the Nest is the hinterland of the Nest, located in the core area of the lighthouse, and it is already a matter of racking your brains to get close to this door.
Even if the door of the nest is opened, it is a fantasy and a fool's dream to take away something from the hinterland of the nest, which is heavily guarded by organs and heavy soldiers.
"I know, isn't that where I sacrificed?"
"Are you crazy? Seeking skin with a tiger, are you killing yourself? β
At first, Adie thinks that Ember is naΓ―ve, but at this time, he thinks that Ember is too reckless and a reckless madman.
"If you don't enter the tiger's den, you will get the tiger, besides, if you don't take this risk, let alone this life, it is estimated that you will be trapped in the shackles of this nest enchantment in the next life."
Ember Huo's self-confidence made Ah Die see Ember Flame's madness, but more often saw Ember Flame's positive energy, as well as the courage and determination not to give up easily.
This is exactly what impresses her.
It is precisely this that touches the depths of Ah Die's heart, at this moment, she has decided to help Yu Huo, and is willing to take a risk for Yu Huo, even if the result she faces is very likely to be a broken bone and ashes, and she will never recover.
"I promised to help you get the key, but this operation is too aggressive, and before we can get the key, we need to have a well-thought-out plan of action, we need to plan for all kinds of possibilities, and we need helpers."
Ah Die's reminder is also where Ember has concerns, this is the nest, not the world, if you want to steal the dark lamp under the nose of the ghost head, it is like stepping on a tightrope on a cliff, and if you are not careful, you may fall into the abyss and break your bones.
Therefore, every step you take is to walk on thin ice and be careful.
But if you take a wrong step, you will face the consequences in one word, death!
"You're right, this plan of action is already in my mind, and as for the helper you said, I already have a candidate in mind."
"Who is it?"
"Willow is silent."
"Him?!"
After hearing Liu Wusheng's name, Ah Die's face was full of astonishment and more horror.
Because in this action plan, it should have been to involve trustworthy people, or people with common interests, but Yu Huo chose Liu Wusheng, who had a holiday with him.
This made Ah Die somewhat incomprehensible, and even seriously suspected that he was playing with fire and self-immolation.
"That's right, it's him, the enemy of the enemy is a friend, there is no eternal enemy in the business field, only eternal interests, Liu Wusheng is an insatiable person, as long as there are enough benefits for him, I believe he will take risks."
Ember Huo's words can be regarded as answering the confusion in Ah Die's heart, but she was always worried that Liu Wusheng would be unreliable, and then said: "But he is the one who stole the dark lamp and took refuge in the nest." β
"That's right, it's precisely because of this that I want him to steal the dark lamp, I want him to send it back obediently, business, you should come and go, right?"
Seeing that there were businessmen inside and out, and businessmen only had to trade and nothing else, Ah Die stopped talking and asked instead, "When do you plan to do it?" β
"Tomorrow night."
