Mystery

Wu Xie felt like throwing up now looking at the crowds of things.Antlers, masked monsters, big birds... and now there are a bunch of skeletons.

God, who is this punishing? !

After shouting this sentence in his heart, he almost laughed himself out, but he didn't expect that he could relax in this situation unconsciously.

Not only was he farther away from that Eastern Xia king, but he was also farther away from his former self.

They are slow moving, so as long as they don't congregate in large numbers, they are not a threat.

They were trying their best to remove the obstacles, but they found that there was gradually the sound of water around them.

The already abandoned central channel was flooded with fresh water from upstream.

Wu Xie and Zhang Qiling stood back to back, facing attacks from all directions.There was a two-meter-wide river channel under their feet. The water level slowly rose, and the icy water covered Wu Xie's ankles, just like standing in a shallow pool before.

Everything that happens has its meaning.Looking at the things floating upstream, Wu Xie felt more and more heavy.

It was a coffin.

From a distance, there is nothing special about the coffin except that it is completely black, and it must be very simple to float along the water.

"Want to turn into a dead body?" Wu Xie felt that he was asking the question knowingly.

"No smell." Zhang Qiling frowned.There is no protection of the coffin, and the coffin is already in tatters.It would be a little strange to say that there is no rotten smell at this distance.

Fires were lit in houses along the road.Zhang Qiling knocked open a door and found that the oil lamp inside lit up by itself.

As far as the eye can see, this is the case.

The horn sounded again, more powerfully and deeply.

"Is there a situation?" Wu Xie probably guessed the owner of the coffin, and became unafraid, but couldn't wait to meet him.

Kill him, and it will probably be over.

The coffin was pried open several times by the things inside, and a pair of withered hands waved it in horror.

He was still wearing a deep dark green suit, and his hair was still neatly combed.He sat up slowly, and Wu Xie saw that his skin was no longer there, and the bones were jade green and white.

That's not bone, but jasper white jade.

The king of Dongxia is really extraordinary.

Why is there a row of jade dummies in the darkest part of the court?Now that too can be explained.

But, who on earth can help them achieve this level, and even know this kind of thing?

Wu Xie already had the answer in his heart.

Compared with his life, his skills have hardly changed.Zhang Qiling stood in front of Wu Xie all of a sudden, helping him block the head-on blow.Two black gold ancient knives collided, and the blades were connected, and the sparks were clearly visible.

Wu Xie turned around directly, and almost stabbed the leg of the person in the coffin with a sword.It's a pity that it only scratched a corner of the man's clothes.

"Be careful." Zhang Qiling's knife swam along the man's blade, touching his withered wrist.It's easy to break jade with an ancient knife.

But after all, the King of Dong Xia had experienced many battles, he spotted Wu Xie behind Zhang Qiling, he didn't care about Zhang Qiling's attack at all, and he drew his knife to slash at Wu Xie.Zhang Qiling immediately withdrew his knife and was almost cut by him.

"He's crazy," Wu Xie thought to himself, if that thing could understand him now, he couldn't help but yell, "If I die, he won't be able to live!"

"It seems that as long as the ghost seal is enough." Zhang Qiling and Wu Xie attacked from both sides.Wu Xie looked at "self" in front of him, feeling very uneasy, and almost lost his mind several times.If Zhang Qiling hadn't been protecting him, he probably would have died here before seeing Gulou.

But if he appears here, is there still a need to go to the ancient building?

Or is the worst a foregone conclusion?

Wu Xie pinched himself hard, and shouted: "Damn! Why are you thinking so much!" He didn't expect that King Dongxia's bone jade was extraordinary, and ordinary knives couldn't do harm at all, so he could only rely on Zhang Qiling's ancient black gold knives .Now he was doing it as if he was licking trouble for Zhang Qiling, and the battle was almost concentrated on those two people.

Wu Xie bumped into a white bone all of a sudden, startling himself.But then he wanted to scold himself again, scolding himself for being absent-minded and not noticing the changes around him until now.All the skeletons stopped their movements long ago and stood in a circle to surround them.

Is it in the family?The gnats stand like a tree, and you stand like a wall?Wu Xie suddenly felt a stabbing pain in his back, and the skeleton he bumped into tried to take Guixi out of Wu Xie's body directly.

"You have a good idea!" Wu Xie simply killed him with a sword, and ran around the garden surrounded by them to the black coffin.

He just spotted two skeletons trying to climb into the coffin.

There must be something strange in it.

After a struggle, they did not gain the upper hand as a whole, they were suppressed to a small area, and they were far away from the coffin.Wu Xie acted like this, he broke away from Zhang Qiling's cover without authorization, and went to the battlefield single-handedly.

The closer they got to the coffin, the more active the skeletons became, gradually showing signs of activity.Wu Xie's lightness kung fu is still in place, and it's not a problem to use his strength to leap.

Looking down from the air is the best view.He stepped on the shoulder of one of the skeletons and jumped lightly, and he had a panoramic view of everything in the coffin.

Ghost seal.

A delicate object sleeps in the coffin.

Wu Xie felt a stabbing pain in his back from the inside out, and fell straight down.Zhang Qiling didn't like it, so he rushed over here immediately.The king of Dongxia pursued him relentlessly, and his momentum became even more aggressive.

"Don't come here!" Wu Xie hoarse at the top of his lungs, which surprised Zhang Qiling.He understood that it would be of no benefit to either of them if he lured the King of Dong Xia, but he was not sure whether he could handle such a strong reaction alone.

"Don't...don't come here..." Wu Xie's breathing was very rapid, and the hand holding the sword was trembling slightly.

He picked Guixi out of the corpse mud with his sword, and the skeletons around him immediately rushed towards him.These are easy to deal with, but it is difficult for the furious King Dongxia.

The target of King Dongxia directly became Wu Xie.Wu Xie sighed, this is not light work, it is simply a "flying man".Zhang Qiling followed him closely: "What happened?"

"I think he wants to be resurrected!" Wu Xie put Guixi in his pocket, took out the light crossbow pinned to his waist, and shot three arrows in succession.

There is a ghost seal in his body.

The ghost seal in the coffin belongs to him, and he is a lonely soul.

It seems that now is really the time when the lonely soul escapes and the king of Dongxia cannot be resurrected.

Just destroy the present and it's all over.

Wu Xie remembered his own blood, and immediately opened a deep wound.The skeletons around him retreated, while King Dongxia came looking for blood.

"Ghost seals are in pairs, carved from heaven and earth. With blood as a bond, unicorns swear an alliance. Bronze is a vessel, and the past is connected to the present. Jade is a vessel, and blood is fused together. Blood seals are records, opening the way and bestowing spirits. Yin soldiers are guards. Incarnate in the people. The Son of Heaven is king, and the years are endless."

Guixi, who was in his pocket, trembled a few times as if he had sensed the long-awaited blood.A metallic resonance sounded in Wu Xie's ears, as well as that short sentence.

Qilin's blood flowed into the stream, and the water where it flowed dried up and flowed back into the river.

Wu Xie was so ashamed at this moment that she wanted to commit suicide. This was a "big taboo" taught by her family since she was a child - no blood should be seen in dangerous places.

I am fine, but this will bring more troubles to Zhang Qiling.

Wu Xie could have blocked the attack of King Dongxia, but he couldn't move.

The water turned into ice, and the cold was overwhelming.

The bloodshot water froze into ice bit by bit, and Wu Xie's lower body froze along his clothes.

Seeing blood, the blood flowed continuously, and the brook water emitted a gloomy dark red color, submerging Wu Xie in the coffin.

"Kill him..." Wu Xie tried his best to make a sound, "No matter what happens..."

The King of Dongxia was already standing on the edge of the coffin, holding tightly the ghost seal he had taken back.Blood flowed from the hollow eye sockets, and his skin was also recovering bit by bit. The blatant heart recovery process made Wu Xie extremely heartbroken.

"It's now……"

Zhang Qiling saw the right moment and aimed the ancient knife directly at the heart of King Dongxia.

In the heart is the ghost seal in the coffin.

The whistling and howling sounds were mixed together, and Zhang Qiling flashed past Wu Xie for a moment, and stopped the ancient knife that flew into the air.If it was a little slower, the ancient knife would directly pierce Wu Xie's heart.

But he will make sure nothing goes wrong.

There was no sign of Wu Xie waking up, Zhang Qiling worriedly looked at the green spot on the side of his neck, but fortunately it disappeared quickly.

He understood the cause of Mi Luo Tuo.Everyone who longs for immortality, when he gets a glimpse of this secret that belongs to the world, if he fails, he will bite back.

Wu Xie has a ghost seal in his body, so naturally there will be no major problems.

Thinking of the intertwined stone walls in the city, Zhang Qiling couldn't help sighing in his heart.For many years, Dongxia needs to guard against the most greedy people. They have paid the price of failure, and they have also warned the reason for Dongxia's decline.

Jade skeletons will gradually form stone walls.

They will also become Mirador.

Everything happens instantly.

The stream flowed back quickly, like a living beast, so fast that it was difficult for Zhang Qiling to catch up.

Wu Xie's blood did not stop flowing, and wherever the water went, there were traces.

It's not over yet, Zhang Qiling has been thinking about it.

It seems that the puppet is still sitting in the ancient building.

He was staring at his other self.

Wu Xie still has a weak consciousness.

He couldn't resist all the pain.

At the end of the river is the ancient building.

The real ancient building is more magnificent and gloomy than the description in the book.

Arriving here, the water stopped suddenly, and the sudden bumps made Wu Xie dizzy.At this time, he was already on the verge of bleeding to death, he felt more and more cold, and his consciousness became more and more erratic.

"Today you can be considered to have experienced what is meant by 'rivers of blood'."

Someone spoke, and the voice was familiar.

"It's a pity," the man continued, his voice was a little distant and unreal, "Actually, I always thought you were very courageous..."

"But there are simply too many people who want it."

The man carried Wu Xie into the ancient building and stopped the bleeding.

"It shouldn't hurt much now," Wu Xie heard the sound of drawing the knife, "I'm sorry."

The sharp tip cut along his skin, and the cold metal texture made Wu Xie tremble uncontrollably.Wu Xie could only smile wryly, and was secretly relieved that she wouldn't feel so much pain now.

"The person above snatched another ghost seal." The man tried not to hurt Wu Xie's internal organs. "No matter how upside down, there are only four real ghost seals. The first one is in your body, and the second one is in your body." One was just reduced by you, the third was taken away, what about the fourth? It seems that Patriarch Zhang's soul is still floating."

"Qi..." Wu Xie wanted to call out "blind man", but it seemed a bit early now.

"I was only surnamed Zhang when I was lurking," he kept smiling, seemingly unmoved, "I thought the Zhang family was pitiful, but I didn't expect that I sympathized with you the most, like a well-fed prey Same……"

A piercing pain spread from Wu Xie's bones, he guessed it was Yuhua's reaction.He has a new understanding of how "weak" he is, and he can't tell whether it's guilt or sadness.

Life is born to the ultimate, death is the ultimate to die.

No regrets.

Only Zhang Qiling couldn't let go.

Leave those who need relief the most in troubled times alone, and you can't accompany them.

"Why don't you talk?" The blind man smiled, "The recovery speed of Qilin blood is several times that of ordinary people."

"I asked you to clean it up for me..." Wu Xie was let go by him, without restraint, and without the power to fight back.

The blind man was holding the ghost seal.Wu Xie's eyes were already very blurred, and he could only vaguely see the ghost seal that was taken out was very small, lying quietly in his palm.

"My fault, my fault," he felt even more amused, "If you still have the strength, you can find the head of the Zhang family that you misunderstood. I am no longer interested in knowing which sinister place he was buried in the building. "

Wu Xie felt that the wound on his back was exactly the same as the dead King Dongxia.The skin was burnt yellow, the jade color in the bones was clearly visible, the blood dried up and stuck to the bones, and the torn muscles left a small space.

"Ping—" I don't know if it was the sound of sword drawing or the collision of weapons, but it was completely opposite to the sound of Zhang Qiling's ancient knife.This uninvited guest made the blind man's expression change drastically.

Just for a moment, the hidden weapon flew towards him, in the opposite direction of the sound.

"It turns out that I was still so young in terms of age and qualifications back then..." Wu Xie's truly nostalgic voice sounded.

"Don't come over!" Wu Xie reluctantly got up and was about to go, but heard the person in the dark say this.

"Fortunately, I got Qi Yu's other ghost seal. Otherwise, if I kill myself, I will disappear in an instant," he laughed, very relieved, "Isn't it, little third master?"

It's been a long time since anyone called Wu Xie like that.The time I spent with my third uncle came like a tide.Wu Xie's jade transformation is still going on, and he vaguely seems to hear a voice that he has never heard before.That was Miluotuo's voice, and as the jade transformation progressed, that voice became more and more like communicating with him.

"Wake up!" A familiar yet unfamiliar voice seemed to linger in his ears, "You are the last hope!"

That's right, it's the third uncle.

I don't know how long ago, the way the third uncle looked at him changed overnight.He avoids himself every day, even if he must look directly, his eyes are evasive.

He already knew about his life experience, and he had long wanted to covet her.It's a pity that he ended up like this.

I didn't expect to meet again after so many years, it turned out to be such a result.

"Wake up!"

Wu Xie felt like she had slept for a long time.

This voice is close at hand, very familiar, very familiar...
