Genshin Impact: Great, you guys still remember
Chapter 10 The Statue on the Mountaintop
The dawn had not yet broken, and the distant sky was only a vast expanse of white, merging with the snow-white earth.
The winter snow and the sky are the same color.
He Li opened his eyes. He was awakened by the cold.
Pushing aside the wolf corpse that was covered with frost, he looked around and saw the ground was in a mess, with blood and internal organs everywhere, and piled up with corpses one after another. Due to the low temperature, the wolf corpses were firmly frozen to the snow.
He Li rubbed his head. He fought to the end last night, relying solely on instinct to kill. After killing the last wolf,
I actually fell asleep lying under the wolf's corpses.
I should have killed them all.
He Li found the broken knife, looked at the top of the mountain just around the corner, and thought silently,
He exhaled slowly, suppressed the wailing of his body, and staggered towards the top of the mountain with the axe in his hand.
[Perhaps your persistence has moved God, or perhaps the test is over]
[The temperature on the top of the mountain has risen a lot, and many plants are growing here]
[When you finally breathe a sigh of relief, look up]
[Different from the immortal retreat you imagine]
[There is no sign of biological activity on the top of the mountain, only a statue standing here]
[Your heart sinks to the bottom]
[There is a stone tablet not far from the statue]
[You force yourself to step forward——]
"I came here while wandering and encountered an evil spirit doing evil. I didn't expect its ability to be strange, and my ability is still limited. I can't kill it completely, so I sealed it here. If any Taoist friends see this tablet, they can try. If they kill it, I will definitely offer a thank you gift. If it is impossible, you must retreat quickly, and my seal can also protect you."
There is no signature on the stele, but just by looking at the words, you can tell that the person who carved the stele had strong power and vigorous writing skills. The stele has been weathered by wind and rain for countless years, but the words are still clear.
[You read the inscription and said nothing. You picked up some dry firewood from a tree not far away, started a fire, took out the meat cut from the wolf and started roasting it.]
[After the cold and the attack passed, you finally had time to check on your physical condition]
[But it's not as bad as you think. Apart from frostbite, there are only a few scratches from wolves on his body.]
[Black blood seeps out of the scratches, but you can feel the poisonous blood of the devil contained in it - you have experienced this situation dozens of times.]
[No one knows the consequences of infection better than you]
[You can no longer come into contact with poisonous blood. The resistance of antibodies (primary) is limited.]
He Li bit into the barbecue one bite at a time, looking at the burning fire in front of him, wondering what he was thinking.
Perhaps it was because the firewood was too dry, it was burning with a crackling sound, sparks popping out from time to time, and then slowly extinguished in the air.
After finishing the barbecue, He Li grabbed a handful of snow and boiled it into water on a grooved stone.
It was not until the hot water entered his stomach and he felt the warmth that he had not felt for a long time that he finally felt alive.
He Li shifted his gaze to the statue not far away.
Perhaps it was because it had been exposed to the wind and sun for a long time, or perhaps the sealer did not pay attention to this aspect.
The statue has no face, or even limbs, and only the head and body can be vaguely identified through the outline.
"After eating and drinking, it's time to get down to business,"
He Li murmured to himself:
"Will you 'give a thank you gift'? Then let me, your 'fellow Taoist', give it a try..."
...
The setting sun cast its last rays of light, and the sky finally darkened.
The lights in the village are twinkling, filled with a peaceful atmosphere.
From time to time, a muffled sound was heard from the far distance, shattering several cliffs on the top of the mountain.
Ping'er, who was carrying a gun up the mountain, was not in the mood to pay attention to these things at the moment. She quickly passed through the mountain, searching every blade of grass and every tree, trying to find He Li's figure.
The moonlight shone down, illuminating the scenery on the mountain, which provided a lot of convenience for Ping'er's search.
But whether it was the nest of his former prey, or the creek he often visited, or the only way up the mountain,
She looked through them all.
As time passed, the moon turned a corner, and the shadows of the grass and trees began to move with it. It was not until they were projected on her face that she realized what was happening.
It's late at night.
"How come there isn't?"
Ping'er came to a small path, squatted down and carefully observed the traces.
But there was nothing but a few animal footprints.
I usually secretly follow him up the mountain. We only take this road, but how come there is no trace of him...
Ping Er stood up and looked around. She saw the path that had been gradually smoothed by long-term walking and human cleaning, and then she looked at the surrounding jungle full of thorns and strange rocks.
On weekdays, when I go up the mountain, I am behind...
Her heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly came to her senses.
Some things in my mind gradually connected together.
If my brother had known that I had been following him secretly, he would have chosen this path...
No, the road did not exist originally, but was opened up step by step, one stroke at a time.
He did this just because he was worried that he would get scratched by the thorns because he followed too closely...
If you think clearly, your thinking will become clearer.
So last night's drinking...was it to make me fall asleep and sneak away?
You are so cunning, brother.
What on earth are you hiding from your sister?
call--
Ping'er took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.
Since my brother doesn't want me to follow him, he must have something he wants to do.
This will basically eliminate the possibility of accidents.
He didn't come back for a day. Where did he go?
"Brother, you are such a reliable person, you will never do anything you are not sure of, right..."
Ping'er looked up at the top of the mountain in the distance.
...
After taking a few steps closer to the statue, He Li noticed a sealing array on the ground.
It was golden in color, emitting hazy rays of light, full of divinity. When one touched it, one could seem to feel the protective power within.
'My seal can also protect you.'
"That's quite thoughtful,"
He Li smiled and stepped into the seal formation.
hum-
The brain buzzes.
He Li lost all vision.
After one second of distortion,
Suddenly, screams came from deep in my brain, as if countless pairs of black hands stretched out from inside my mind, with sharp mouths with fangs growing out of the black hands.
Countless screams, the cries of women and children, the wailing of the elderly, the roars of men... poured out from the sharp mouth with fangs, tearing at He Li's nerves and stirring up his brain.
"hiss--"
He Li squatted on the ground in pain, covering his forehead with his hands and gritting his teeth to resist.
"Tsk, why did they send a kid this time, and a mortal at that? Ha, Morax, do you think you can get rid of me completely with just a mortal?"
A ball of black mist suddenly emerged from the statue, and the head with no visible facial features was buzzing.
