I Was Once a Legend

It is impossible for people living in the cold palace to be treated well. He found an old bunt, maybe it was left by a court lady, but it was better than the wet clothes on his body, so he changed into it.

Pressing his hands on those broken locks, the metal melted into room temperature liquid and gathered in Dong Linhai's hands. Linhai slapped them on the windows and doors, and the liquid metal quickly solidified, sealing the room from the inside.

After doing all this, exhaustion flooded all limbs and bones, and suddenly turned into a little girl. Dong Linhai, who was used to being strong and used to it, was simply too uncomfortable.

The bed was very damp, and I don't know if there would be cockroaches or the like in the quilt. Dong Linhai didn't lift it up. He leaned against the wall, intending to make do with it and take a rest.

There was a small rustling sound.

Linhai's eyes that had just been closed suddenly opened, and the voice came from under the bed.

He clenched the metal piece on the side, and retreated vigilantly to a place that was easier to defend. The sound continued, as if something wanted to come out, but it was stuck.

"Who's there?" The girl's immature voice echoed in the dilapidated room, but there was no trace of timidity.

Finally, a hand stretched out from under the bed. It was covered with mottled blood, some of which were still fresh.

Immediately afterwards, more parts crawled out from the narrow bottom of the bed, Dong Linhai's breathing was stagnant, and he could hardly be sure what was in front of him for a moment.

It seemed to be a person, his body was twisted into the shape of a chair, the joints of his legs and arms were twisted abnormally to become the four legs of the chair, and the torso was bent, forming the chair surface and the chair back.

Some complex structure of metal and wood is installed on him, so that he really looks like a chair.

This is... a human chair?

Linhai has never been baptized by a circus freak show. When he saw this strange creature, he got goosebumps all over his body under the effect of the uncanny valley effect and sang the national anthem. He swallowed hard, and his voice was a little jerky: "... …Who are you?"

To put it bluntly, this is similar to the situation in steampunk where some parts of one's body are modified into equipment, except that this one looks much more disgusting.

And... No matter how you look at it, this person doesn't want to take the initiative to be made like this, right?

"Don't be afraid." The human chair struggled to speak out, his vocal cords seemed to be damaged, and the voice he made was very hoarse and difficult to recognize - because a chair does not need to speak.

"I used to be the same person as you." The man said, "You escaped from the national teacher, right?"

Dong Linhai actually didn't understand what happened before, but he did escape from somewhere, avoiding pursuers all the way.

He nodded.

"In order to refine the elixir of life, the national teacher summoned virgins and virgins, and used magic to draw their blood. Although the people whose blood was drawn will not die, they will age rapidly. Those aging children will soon be useless. I was sent to Tianji to be made into various objects." Renyi said painfully, "I was... one of the first people who were used by the national teacher to experiment with sorcery."

Dong Linhai was shocked. Although he saw some strange wooden mechanical products along the way, he thought it was not a documentary background, but he never expected it to be so mysterious.

Talking seems to be a huge burden for the chair, he panted for a while, and continued: "You can't escape, the emperor's hidden guards are responsible for capturing the escaped raw materials, no matter where you go, you will be found .”

Dong Linhai: "Then how can we survive?"

"Live? It's very easy to live. Am I still alive soon?" Ren Yi smiled, his face was extremely ferocious, "The only way to end this is to kill the national teacher or the emperor. That's the only way. To end all misfortunes.”

The mission panel is updated at this moment [Challenge Mission: Kill the National Teacher]

"There is a secret passage under the bed, which leads to the scrap yard at the Tianji Department. I came from there." The limbs of the human chair have been forcibly fixed by wood and metal, which made it impossible for him to even sit down and rest. , he could only maintain this terrifying and distorted posture, he seemed to be very exhausted, and finished talking to Dong Linhai with a sigh of relief:

"Remember, you must...you must kill him, otherwise, there will be more people like me, who want to live but not die...no."

The voice gradually weakened, the eyes were not closed, but they would never blink again.

Do not look down.

In Dong Linhai's opinion, this feeling was more terrifying than some ghosts and ghosts that appeared in front of him. He froze on the spot, and finally stepped forward to melt all the metal on the human chair, and dismantled the mortise and tenon joints that trapped him. .

But his joints have already been fixed, even if they are removed, they can no longer return to their previous appearance.

Linhai struggled to get out of the bed, but the bed didn't move at all. Fortunately, now that he is a thin and thin girl, he can directly climb in from under the bed.

There was indeed a secret passage inside.

The rancid smell became heavier. It came from the "waste yard". It was unknown how many people were killed in this way in the Tianji Department. In the darkness, Dong Linhai groped forward.

In the challenge box, if he fails to complete the task proposed by the box, he will be punished. Therefore, even if he does not consider the entrustment of the human chair and some human rights issues, he will kill the national teacher.

it's getting dark.

Xia Qiongyun was sneaking in the darkness, the night and the black dark guard uniform completely covered her up perfectly.

After she entered the box, she turned into a man, No. 17 in the Emperor's most trusted and valued secret guard group. Before she got used to this much stronger body than her original, Xia Qiongyun quickly received a call from The emperor's order is also the first challenge task given to her by the box——

[Target 0/4]

Four boys and girls escaped from the National Teacher. The task of the secret guard team is to capture these four children. Xia Qiongyun tried her best not to think about why these children escaped, and what the National Teacher wanted to use them for.

If I catch them back, what kind of punishment will the children experience?

But if you don't finish it, you will be punished by the box.

Except for those who stayed with the emperor to protect him at any time, there were a total of nine people who were responsible for arresting them. After those children were sent to the hands of the national teacher, all the clothes they wore were smoked with special spices, just to facilitate their escape. Find whereabouts quickly.

Xia Qiongyun took out the small porcelain bottle from her bosom, poured some of the liquid in it on the road, and the liquid quickly spread in a certain direction in a way that did not conform to the laws of physics, and became a thin line, pointing to someone who had where to flee.

Xia Qiongyun stepped on the palace wall and chased after her.

On the other side, Dong Zheng relied on his sense of hearing to keep dodging people. They ran along the palace road all the way and didn't know where they went. It seems that there are not many people who escaped from them. More palace people are doing their own things and are in a hurry. with.

The two slipped into a relatively quiet courtyard, bypassing the maid who was repairing flower branches, Dong Zheng and Cui Zuojing turned into the side hall where no one seemed to come over for a while, and finally they could rest for a while .

There should be a concubine living in this other courtyard, and there are many good things even in the side hall. It is round and looks very delicious.

Cui Zuojing grabbed a handful unceremoniously, took a tentative breath, and confirmed that it was indeed sweet, stuffed two more in Dong Zheng's mouth.

It is indeed what the concubine eats.

Two fake lolis sat on the bed with a plate and ate grapes, and soon spit out a piece of grape skin. Cui Zuojing saw that Dong Zheng's current state was indeed miserable, so he took out a comb and dipped him in the dog hole. The messy hair of the grass clippings was combed back into order.

Dong Zheng doesn't care about these, but since Cui Zuojing is willing, he will not destroy this rare interest.

After taking care of Dong Zheng, Cui Zuojing held the mirror and looked at his current appearance left and right, and couldn't help sighing again: "As expected, no matter what I become, I am so handsome, so beautiful, so cute."

Dong Zheng laughed and said, "Don't you still have a younger sister? Does she look like you now?"

"I don't look like her at all. She was much uglier than this when she was a child. Fortunately, she grew up slowly. Otherwise, I don't know if I can get married." Cui Zuojing curled her lips and published a series of The younger sister heard the brother's remarks about beating someone, and said that although he and Dong Zheng are both elder brothers, they have completely different attitudes towards younger siblings in many aspects.

Da da da……

"Someone is coming." Dong Zheng keenly heard an unusual voice, as if someone was running and jumping on the roof.

Cui Zuojing's hearing was not as sensitive as his to the point of perversion. He wiped his mouth without saying a word, and grasped the softness that he had just touched in the palm of his hand, ready to strike first when someone came over.

The footsteps gradually approached, and now even Cui Zuojing heard it, and soon it stopped, just above the head.

Cui Zuojing stepped back silently to the window, and he gave Dong Zheng a look. Dong Zheng pressed his hand on the window lightly, stepped on the low stool with one foot, and was ready to push the window and run away at any time.

Ten seconds passed, 1 minute passed, 3 minutes passed.

There was no other movement, Dong Zheng's hands were sore, and the people on the roof seemed to have left, without making a single sound.

Cui Zuojing and Dong Zheng exchanged glances, the young man stabilized his breathing rate, but he still didn't relax because of it.

None of them heard the man leave, and the man must still be there.

The shock happened suddenly in the next second.

It seemed certain that the people inside had let down their vigilance. There was a loud bang when the roof tiles were broken, and a burly man in black descended from the sky. He saw the half-turned-out girl by the window at a glance. And another child that was broken for her.

Whoosh-!

The sound of piercing the air hit her face, Xia Qiongyun raised her hand to block it, and the dagger tied to her forearm blocked the pearl earring with a bang, the impact made her arm slightly numb, and the refined dagger was directly smashed out. It's hard to believe that it popped out of a little girl's hand.

This is……

Cui Zuojing? !

The familiar attack method made Xia Qiongyun recognize her teammates at once. When she was surprised, the two children had already climbed over the window and ran away quickly. Xia Qiongyun hesitated. If these two children were teammates, her task what to do

She didn't catch up immediately, as if she had sensed her hesitation, a sudden stabbing pain burst from her waist, along the spine all the way to the back of her head, and Xia Qiongyun, who was in pain like an electric shock, almost cried out.
