I can keep you until five watches [Unlimited] verse 254
Therefore, Xie Yinxue suspected that Qin He had never considered medicine to let Liu Buhua gain immortality.
He just wanted Liu Buhua to leave Suo Changsheng unharmed and easily, and by the way, let himself know some "past events" and instill some "big truths" in himself.
To put it more bluntly, that copy was purely tailor-made for Liu Buhua, and only had the function of "clearing customs", and did not have the path to "obtain" immortality.
This also corroborates a guess that Xie Yinxue has been mentally prepared for: the "immortality" that the participants can finally obtain in the lock immortal life is definitely not a good thing, and it is very different from the "immortality" that people understand in a broad sense.
Maybe it's the best choice to clear the dungeon nine times, and then honestly leave Suo Changsheng and return to the real world to live a lifetime.
It's a pity that Xie Yinxue has never had a choice.
Now he could no longer use any of the secret techniques of the Qi Gate, and he could no longer be as rampant as he used to be.
So Xie Yinxue also began to pretend to be smart, and said sincerely in the most gentle and warm voice in her life: "It's not that I don't want to tell you, it's that I really don't know." In that dungeon, we went straight back to the real world after completing the clearance conditions, and maybe we needed to meet other conditions to get the next stage of 'immortality', but we didn't even touch the threshold, so we didn't know anything. β
After hearing this, Chen Yun, Xiao Siyu and Lu Shuo immediately expressed their support for Xie Yinxue: "We believe in you, Mr. Xie. β
Jamon also said, "I believe in you." β
Qian Qian also stood in line for Xie Yinxue and explained to the rest of the people on his behalf: "Mr. Xie once helped me clear the dungeon, I believe in his character, he will not lie to us." β
There are a total of twelve people in this copy, excluding Xie Yinxue himself, and now there are five participants who are standing on his side to help him speak, although Bian Yuchen did not make a clear statement, he obviously knows Xie Yinxue, and he should know a little about the youth, so his silence at this time can be completely equated with his acquiescence to what Xie Yinxue said.
"Okay." Tu Wencai had to give up for the time being, and looked at the golden silk nanmu coffin that Xie Yinxue came out of and began to sink into the sand like their luggage, and asked casually, "By the way, why did you lie in the coffin and enter the copy?" β
The young man lowered his eyelashes and whispered, "Personal fetish." β
Tu Wencai: "......"
Apart from this reason, there seems to be no other explanation as to why the young man was lying in a coffin and entering the copy, not to mention that the funeral makeup on his face is also very convincing.
Tu Wencai took one last look at the disappearing "seven figures", and then at Xie Yinxue, and did not find a trace of distress or reluctance in the eyes of the young man, and understood that no matter what, the road of "inducement" would definitely not work - people who have the ability to buy this top-grade golden silk nanmu coffin will not be short of money, nor will they be tempted by material, assuming that the "I don't know" in Xie Yinxue's mouth is false, then if he wants to tell the truth, I am afraid he can only try to take the road of "coercion".
But this is not the case.
It was imperative to figure out the rules and mechanics of the copy they were currently in.
Thinking of this, Tu Wen retracted his gaze, looked into the distance and said, "Come on, there are no clues here, and the luggage can't be dug up, there is an oasis in front, let's go over and take a look." β
It doesn't make sense for the participants.
Fifty meters is not a long distance, and it takes about a minute to walk.
When they got closer, they found that this oasis was real, it existed abruptly in the desert, with lush greenery, next to a long ribbon of blue rivers, and in the center of the oasis sat several temples and palaces supported by huge stone columns, which were typical of ancient Egyptian megalithic architecture, majestic and majestic.
Zhan Meng looked up at the sphinx ram stone icons on both sides of the stone avenue leading to the main hall, took a breath and said, "Be careful...... I think there might actually be a mummy here. β
Li Chanyi didn't refute him this time.
They walked along the stone avenue, intending to take a look at the central temple, but when they came to an inner courtyard surrounded by a colonnade, the participants were suddenly stopped by a group of "men" holding scepters and human beast heads.
These "men" are both male and female, and there are many kinds of animal heads on their necks: jackals, eagles, cats, snakes, lions...... There are even frogs, the men all wear strong and sturdy upper bodies, the lower half of the body wears skirted waists, and the women wear white nug gowns, exposing only their arms and calves, but both men and women wear exquisite collars, armbands, bracelets and rings made of pure gold, and the gems set in them are colorful and colorful, mostly dark blue, green and red.
Lu Shuo stared at them for a few seconds and asked Chen Yun and Xiao Siyu, "Which of them do you think is the NPC of the dungeon guide this time?" β
Chapter 248
"If nothing else, the first one to speak up is."
Xiao Siyu paused, and then continued: "But I think there will be an accident." β
Lu Shuo was concerned: "...... I think you're right. β
Because none of these human-headed beast-headed people had the intention of speaking out loud.
Fortunately, this is not a big problem, after all, there is more than one way to judge the NPC of the guide.
In the lock immortal, the person who informs, announces, and specifies the rules and taboos related to the copy may also be the guide NPC, but there may also be other exceptions, such as the present-
The group of human-headed beast-headed people didn't make a sound, they also moved in unison, raising their left hands in unison to all the participants, pointing in the direction of the right, and signaling everyone to go to the right.
Seeing this, the participants had no choice but to follow their request, turn around and walk towards the stone path on the right.
After a while, several clear water pools appeared in front of everyone, those pools are not large in size, the depth of the water is relatively shallow, and there are many palm trees and some dwarf shrubs planted in the middle of the pools, like a natural barrier, separating the different pools.
Lu Shuo couldn't help but let out a "ha" and said with a smile: "This place is quite like the hot spring bathhouse in my hometown." β
As a result, the participants looked sideways at him.
The smile on Lu Shuo's face froze, and he also turned his head to look at the human beast-headed people, and asked embarrassedly, "...... We're not really going to go down to the bath, are we? β
The response of the human-headed beast-headed people was: raise their hands together and point to the pool.
And their body language conveys no less information than verbal language, so even if they don't say a word, everyone still understands what they mean.
"Twelve pools, exactly one for each person." Lu Shuo smiled bitterly and said, "I suggest that the girls go to the left and the boys go to the right, so that they don't disturb each other, so it's better." β
Li Chanyi nodded: "Okay, that's it, it's okay." β
The rest of the people didn't have any objections, in fact, even if the human beastheads asked them to bathe in a big pool together, no one would disagree - before life and death, privacy was nothing.
Xie Yinxue picked the most corner of the pool, kicked off her shoes, and walked barefoot into the pool.
Then I heard Jamon shouting from the pool next door, "Hiss...... This water is so cold! β
Is it cool?
Xie Yinxue lowered his eyes, his gaze stayed on the hem of his water-soaked clothes, his current body was not very sensitive to temperature, whether it was a hot desert or a cool ice pool, it was actually not much different to him.
- After all, I can't feel it at all.
So some things have to be observed with eyes that can still see.
As a result, just when Xie Yinxue was about to lean over and pick up a handful of pond water to see if there was anything unusual, she suddenly heard a light footstep behind her that was gradually approaching.
His body didn't move, he just looked back from his shoulder.
The person who came was a man with a jackal beast's head, and his image was very similar to the ancient Egyptian god who guided the soul into the afterlife: Anubis, with a slender wolf snout and a pair of erect pointed ears, the hair on the whole head was pure black, and the eyes were painted like thick ink, Xie Yinxue tilted his head slightly, and he also saw a black tail on his buttocks.
Xie Yinxue raised her eyebrows, opened her lips and said, "Dog? β
No way, wolves are canines, and most people who have never seen wolves can easily mistake wolves for dogs when they see them for the first time. Of course, these people who mistook wolves for dogs certainly did not include Xie Yinxue - he just deliberately called the wrong one.
When the jackal beast-headed man heard Xie Yinxue call him "dog", the pair of pointed ears trembled slightly for a moment, and then continued to look at the young man silently.
Xie Yinxue's gaze shifted downward, slid over the man's tight and bulging bronzed pectoral muscles, and finally settled on his right hand holding the scepterβthe ring finger of this hand wore a gold ring with a plain ring in a simple and simple style, which was also the only jewelry he wore on his ten fingers.
As for the other beast-headed men, they also wore rings on their hands, but the style was as plain as this, and they were not worn on the ring finger; Some are worn on the ring finger, and the styles are complex and gorgeous, and even inlaid with precious stones.
However, Xie Yinxue recognized that Bu Jiuzhao never relied on these external things, even if the man did not have those pale vertical pupils, between them, only one eye contact was enough.
It's like an innate instinct that is engraved in their souls.
So when Xie Yinxue spoke again, he was already anti-customer, stretched out his right hand towards the man with his palm upward, and said with an order: "My good dog, come and touch me." β
At first, it was "dog", but now it has a prefix to indicate belonging.
The jackal beast-headed man was really moved when he heard this, but he didn't step closer to the young man, but raised the golden scepter in his hand, which symbolized supreme power, and slapped the young man's palm twice, the force was very light, and he couldn't even leave half a red mark on the young man's white and soft palm, like a parent teaching a disobedient child, although he was angry in his heart, he was reluctant to hit hard, so he could only pat it twice helplessly as a warning.
However, Xie Yinxue only has to be a father in this life, and it is impossible for others to be his father, so he naturally didn't take Bu Jiuzhao's not harsh warning in his eyes, he also took away the scepter, still stretched out his hand in the direction of the man, and told his desire without shame: "I want to pinch your ears and tail, I haven't seen you grow before." β
"Give me a touch, I'll be gentle."
The more you talk about it, the stranger it gets.
The jackal-headed man ignored the young man's shameful demands full of ambiguity and provocation, and only raised his hand and used the top bend of the gas scepter to pick open the buckles of the young man's red robe, one, two, three...... Under the man's control, the gas scepter was like a nimble hand, peeling off the outer skin of the red lily with ease, revealing the crystal clear white flesh inside.
At the end of the day, the man put the tip of his scepter against the young man's chest and threw him down in the pool, but he himself stood on the edge of the pool, and cast a condescending glance, although he did not speak, but his eyes as if he were full of precepts: "You have offended the gods with your eyes and words just now, and now the gods will teach you, and you must be obedient, and do not be presumptuous any more." β
Xie Yinxue was soaked, he got up from the pool, squinted his eyes and wiped the water droplets on his face, lay on the edge of the pool, looked up at the man, and still stubbornly said: "I still want to pinch it and take a look." β
ββ¦β¦β
"I'm going to pinch."
Very good, the meaning of this sentence is not "can I pinch it", but "I must pinch it".
Bu Jiuzhao couldn't resist him after all, so he fished Xie Yinxue out of the pool with his arm, first put his tail in his hand, and then took out a jar with dark brown liquid from the low table next to the pool, twisted the lid of the jar, took out the viscous liquid inside and wiped it on Xie Yinxue's body.
Xie Yinxue didn't move when she had a tail, and it was rare to stand in place obediently, letting Bu Jiuzhao use the unknown liquid to smear her complexion into a bronz.
After a while, Bu Jiuzhao took another half-skirt waist shirt for Xie Yinxue to wear, as well as a collar, bracelet, armband, and belt...... All kinds of exquisite and complex ornaments are readily available, and when she finishes dressing up, Xie Yinxue has become half of the ancient Egyptian on the mural of the ruins, and she is only one step away - applying makeup.
The ancient Egyptians, both men and women, almost always wore makeup, believing that beautiful people could be blessed by the sun god, and that if human eyes did not wear makeup, they would be vulnerable to evil.
Xie Yinxue looked at the eyeliner pencil, eye shadow and lipstick handed to him by the man and fell silent, and after a while, he resigned himself to taking the makeup tool, and Bu Jiuzhao held up a mirror for him "diligently".
"You did it on purpose, didn't you?" Xie Yinxue raised her eyebrows and asked him, "Golden eyeshadow, golden lipstick?" β
The ancient Egyptians had a lot of eyeshadow colors, but the most popular was actually the dark green eyeshadow made of malachite, because the Eye of Horus was green, and they worshipped Horus.
Bu Jiuzhao's makeup tools were all taken from the low table next to the pool, Xie Yinxue saw that there were blue and green eyeshadows, but Bu Jiuzhao chose a golden one, and even the lipstick had to be golden, obviously selfish.
However, Xie Yinxue finally granted his wish.
When the original color of her lips was completely covered by the golden lipstick, Xie Yinxue pursed her lips, laughed, and said to the man, "Ears." β
The jackal beast-headed man looked at him deeply, bent his left knee and knelt down, bowed his head slightly, Xie Yinxue also bent down, closed his upper and lower lips and touched the tip of the man's ear, and "bited" him heavily.
The pair of pointed ears were thin, and when they were "bitten", they would subconsciously struggle in their mouths, so Xie Yinxue couldn't help but sip them for a while, and when they let go, a circle of gold powder marks had been left on the tips of the jackal beast-headed man's ears, like a seal, shining in the light.
Xie Yinxue stroked her lips with her fingertips, but her words meant something else: "Well, it seems that the golden lipstick is indeed beautiful." β
Hearing this, the jackal beast-headed man also raised his arm, and his fingertips touched the center of Xie Yinxue's lips and flesh lightly, like a kiss.
Then, all the warmth ended. The jackal-headed man pressed the tip of his scepter against the young man's spine from behind and silently ordered him to move forward.
Xie Yinxue was "driven back" to the inner courtyard garden along with the other participants.
They all changed into ancient Egyptian-style linen clothes and ornate jewelry, their bodies were also dyed bronze by the jar of dark brown liquid, their eyes were wrapped in long inky black eyeliner, and the top of their eyelids were either smeared with gold dust or blue or green eyeshadows, and the lipsticks were basically the same choice of red, except for Xie Yinxue and Sissi. Xie Yinxue painted gold, and Sissi painted blue-black because she liked Gothic culture, but this exaggerated color was unexpectedly suitable for her, and it was not abrupt to look at.
"Do you know what they want us to paint?" Yao Xiaoguo sniffed his arm and asked, "It smells of rosin." β
Xiao Siyu said: "Sunscreen oil, right? β
He will also apply sunscreen to his body when he goes to the beach to play, the sun is strong in the desert, the temperature is high, the water in the body is easy to evaporate, and applying some oil can be a good way to avoid dry skin and excessive evaporation of water.
Jamon told a sneering joke: "It may also be color-changing ink, which cannot be used to make β‘β‘, but can make us fake ancient Egyptians." β
It was so hot that no one was smiling.
Lu Shuo was afraid that he would be too embarrassed, so he shook the heavy gold bracelet on his wrist and joked: "Yes, he who wears gold and silver is probably still a great nobleman of ancient Egypt." β
