[Bottle Evil] Snowy Illusion

Wu Xie's bag was turned upside down by Zhang Haixing. Except for the equipment for climbing and fighting, the only thing related to their purpose was the ghost jade seal that Zhang Qiling left for Wu Xie, but the ghost seal was used to open the door. It is not necessary to use the ghost seal.

Zhang Haixing noticed the bell in Zhang Haike's hand, and asked, "Did you create an illusion for him?"

Zhang Haike put away the bell and said, "It's just an insurance policy. If he wakes up later, we'll have more time to talk to the patriarch."

Zhang Haixing frowned slightly, walked over and said: "If you use this method, if the mother bell is not with him, I guess you will kneel down and beg the patriarch, and he will not give you the mother bell."

Zhang Haike smiled wryly, and said: "Now you will overthrow others' aspirations and destroy your prestige."

Zhang Haixing didn't answer, she threw the backpack at Zhang Haike's feet, but said, "You've been a little weird lately."

Zhang Haike paused and asked, "What?"

Zhang Haixing squatted down and rolled Wu Xie's eyelids, and said, "It's nothing, did you find the mother bell? What kind of illusion did you create for him?"

Zhang Haike continued to rummage through Wu Xie's pockets, "He will definitely like it, the hint this time is very easy." He smiled at Zhang Haixing and said, "I'm being merciful. Is it possible to stand and beg the patriarch?"

Zhang Haixing snorted, and said, "You take care of your own affairs." Zhang Haixing casually flipped through the inner pocket of Wu Xie's jacket, and then unexpectedly took out a small copper bell from it.She handed it to Zhang Haike with some doubts: "Your? Why did you put it in?"

Zhang Haike was taken aback, took the bell, and examined it carefully for a while. The bell was also sealed with rosin, which was obviously treated deliberately.Zhang Haike wondered: "It's not mine, he got it from somewhere."

Zhang Haixing said in surprise: "This is a female bell? But is it too common, no different from the one in our hands?"

Zhang Haike smelled the rosin in the bell, then scratched it with his nails, thought for a while and said, "It's not like a female bell, it's too small. But it's not necessarily true. If Wu Xie used a bell, it must have been used not too long ago. But the rosin here is quite old, the patriarch used the mother bell in the ancient building ten years ago, and it is not impossible to pour rosin afterwards, after all, we have never seen the mother bell."

Zhang Haixing stood up and said, "Let's search for that fat man." Then he walked towards the place where the fat man lay down.

Zhang Haike smiled and said, "How about I come? Look at this kid."

Zhang Haixing waved her hand, without saying a word, she leaned over and reached out to take out the fat man's backpack, but she didn't want to be caught by a big hand firmly on the wrist as soon as she reached out.

Zhang Haixing was startled immediately, she didn't expect that the fat man had woken up, the fat man's face was full of anger, originally his face was fierce, but now his thick eyebrows were erected and his big eyes were round and round, making him even more aggressive.Having also seen Fatty's ability in Tibet back then, Zhang Haixing groaned inwardly.

Zhang Haixing had already reacted and kicked up, but the fat man quickly dodged, and the other arm came across, tightly strangling Zhang Haixing's neck, and the hand holding Zhang Haixing's wrist also twisted her hand hard. Behind her back, Zhang Haixing was so strong that she was so painful that she groaned.

Zhang Haixing only felt that the air was being suppressed for a moment, and she couldn't breathe at all. She pulled the fat man's arm hard with her unrestrained hand, and kicked back at the same time, but the fat man didn't hide and didn't care about her kicking. a few feet.All Zhang Haixing's movements and fighting skills were suppressed by the fat man with absolute strength.

The fat man said, "Bastard, how dare you play tricks on me with the fat man! I have already found out, and the old and new accounts will be settled together!"

Seeing that Zhang Haixing was about to be strangled to death, Zhang Haike was also anxious for a while.In fact, if he went up to help at this time, the chances of winning with Zhang Haixing to subdue the fat man were still very high, but that would only make the situation more rigid.His original intention was not like this. Who would have thought that it would turn into fists and kicks, so he couldn't help but feel a little headache, and quickly shouted: "Brother, don't be impulsive, just talk about it if you have something to say."

Knowing that no matter how hard she struggles, Zhang Haixing will only make herself suffer more, so she loosened her strength and squeezed out a few words: "You... let me go first, we will... explain to you."

The fat man was also afraid of Zhang Haike's fight, but seeing that Zhang Haike didn't intend to show his face at all, his anger subsided a little, and his tone calmed down a little, he said: "It's okay to let you go, unless you give me the bell first. Wake my brother up again."

The matter of the bell is easy to talk about. Zhang Haike doesn't believe that Wu Xie's is the female bell. The possibility of this is very slim, so he put it on the ground without hesitation, and pushed the bell to roll to the fat man's feet.And pinching Wu Xie unconscious was a bad idea, Zhang Haike didn't think about it, the situation was too bad, so he took out the bell that could dispel illusions to wake Wu Xie up.

The three of them were in such a stalemate that the air seemed to freeze, and Zhang Haike was rarely disturbed.

The overseas Zhang family is not as constrained as the Zhang family in the mainland. Over the years of business development, these people's thinking has largely escaped the control of the family, and they are more free and diverse.And Zhang Haike is a different kind of person among these people. It doesn't mean that he is more closed and stubborn. On the contrary, his personal thoughts on the ultimate and secret are similar to Zhang Qiling's.

During the trip to Medog five years ago, he had the first direct contact with Wu Xie. Over the years, he had imitated, used and inquired about the target, but Wu Xie's actual performance was unexpected.And what he did to Wu Xie was also an unshirkable mission within the family. His own attitude towards these things has always been a passive execution.And after communicating with Wu Xie himself, Wu Xie has put more weight on Zhang Qiling's side on the balance in his heart.

If you want to say that Zhang Haike's most sincere thought is at least not to completely break with Wu Xie and the others.But the reason, why he has such an idea, he still doesn't have a definite answer.It was not his idea to create illusions for Wu Xie to delay time, not to mention that he did not expect that the fat man would not fall into the trap. Now that the situation has become so rigid, no matter which party or plan it is for, it is very unfavorable .

Dry.Zhang Haike first scolded Zhang Longban in his heart for giving him such a bad idea, and then carefully melted away the rosin sealed inside the bell that can dispel illusions.

Seeing that Zhang Haike was moving very slowly, the fat man said, "I warn you, don't play tricks with me. That boy Wu Xie used to have a good temper, but he didn't follow me. I don't fight women easily, but I won't be polite if I'm in a hurry."

Zhang Haike sighed, put the processed copper bell next to Wu Xie's ear, and shook it lightly.The principle of copper bells creating illusions has not yet been fully understood, and the method of use is relatively complicated. Sometimes the guidance of illusions does not achieve the desired effect, and sometimes it is not easy to wake up the "hypnotized" object.

Sweat broke out on Zhang Haike's forehead, but it was obvious that the illusion that Wu Xie had sunk into was out of control today. After a while, Wu Xie still hadn't woken up.

The fat man knew the evil nature of this thing, and since Zhang Haike had activated it, he didn't dare to disturb the rhythm of the copper bell's ringing easily.And Zhang Haixing also knew that a good girl would not suffer from immediate losses, so she almost held her breath and waited for Wu Xie to wake up.

Brothers are all fake, wake up!Zhang Haike secretly sighed in his heart, but dared not speak out.

There was silence all around, but in the light and shadow of scattered wolf-eye flashlights and lights, Wu Xie's eyelashes trembled suddenly, and Zhang Haike was delighted.

But Wu Xie still didn't wake up, and Wu Xie's face changed into a familiar expression that he hadn't seen for a long time.

Zhang Haike suddenly realized what the problem was. This illusion was too easy, so easy that maybe Wu Xie didn't want to wake up.

Wu Xie saw how he was separated from everything in the past, and being with the relatives, friends, and lover he had been longing to get together with was the best life he could think of after ending his fate.

If Wu Xie's eyes were open and bright, Zhang Haike would have quickly realized that this expression really belonged to Wu Xie, to the former Wu Xie.

Wu Xie was 26 years old that year.

Wu Xie, whose eyes were still closed, suddenly opened his mouth and called, "Brother."

Zhang Qiling turned his head when he heard Wu Xie's voice, and cast his indifferent eyes on him.

The surrounding light became warm and dazzling, covering it from all directions, and only these eyes were left in Wu Xie's sight.

It's an illusion.

Wu Xie knew.

But this illusion is so special, Wu Xie's rationality is screaming to wake up quickly, but deep in his mind, he can't help but want to explore more.

There is a lake here, the water of the lake is very calm and misty, and he is walking by the lake.

Wu Xie couldn't laugh or cry, it turned out that the scene he imagined was so similar to a romantic literary film in a movie, isn't it a bit abnormal.And the other one of the protagonists——

No matter how much Wu Xie struggled, doubted, and even avoided this emotion over the years, he finally protected it, and the object of this emotion——Zhang Qiling, was walking by his side.

The two walked side by side like this, chatting, Wu Xie couldn't seem to hear what he was talking about, and didn't know what Zhang Qiling answered, but it felt like they had been together for many years and were at ease.

Along the way, some figures passed by them, and there were many scenes behind them, and the breeze of willow leaves blowing in front of them, no one stopped, as if this is a road that never ends.

But as long as there is a road, there will be an end. Wu Xie was a little surprised to see that this end led to his home.Zhang Qiling skillfully closed the door and locked it, and then they walked into the house together.

Zhang Qiling leaned over, and he also leaned over.

Zhang Qiling tilted his head slightly, opened his lips slightly, and moved naturally, as if they were already familiar with what he was going to do...

It is also an illusion, but at this time the other person in another corner of the Nether Palace is feeling unprecedented despair in the illusion.

Li Cu was shaking. In fact, from the moment he pulled the knife out of the snake's eyes, his body never stopped shaking.

Zhang Qiling frowned, he had no choice but to wash off the blood stains on Li Cu's body first, so as to avoid more concentrated snake blood mixed with pheromones to stimulate Li Cu's nerves.

But for the illusion that Li Cu was experiencing at this time, even Zhang Qiling was helpless.

Li Cu felt that something was chasing him, not the Wang family, not the vines of the Hydra cypress, and not the snake, and what frightened him was that he didn't know what it was.Li Cu ran hard, trying to get rid of the shadow behind him. He gasped for air, but felt a stabbing pain in his lungs. He was exhausted and still couldn't escape.

Finally, a white light flashed in the darkness ahead, Li Cuo seemed to have grasped the straw, and ran to the light with the last of his strength.

It was a door that was ajar, and there was light through the door.

Li Cu felt very happy and excited, because from the moment he put his hand on the door, the fear behind him disappeared instantly.

A smile appeared on Li Cu's face involuntarily, which was the joy of the rest of his life after the catastrophe.He even felt that this door could take him away from the past completely and walk towards a brand new tomorrow.

With boundless expectations, Li Cu slowly pushed open the door.

He first saw a person, so he smiled even more heartily, and this person was Wu Xie.

Wu Xie, Li Cu actually stopped seeing him as an enemy, a psycho, or a lunatic for a long time.Over the past year of getting along, Li Cu went from being afraid of this person at the beginning to a kind of spiritual trust and even reliance.Although he likes to confront this person on the surface, at least verbally he must not admit defeat, but in fact he has already approved of this person in his heart.

Li Cu was extremely sensitive when he was extremely insecure in his heart, but although Wu Xie had his own purpose and was using him, he gave him affirmation in disguise and miraculously filled up the empty area in his heart.

Li Cuo was satisfied the moment he saw Wu Xie.

Li Cu decided to trust this person and follow this person. At that moment, he even began to fantasize about his life with Wu Xie in the future.He will learn a lot from Wu Xie.By the way, there is also Zhang Qiling, Zhang Qiling will live with Wu Xie, maybe he can learn some more powerful things from Zhang Qiling.And Su Wan, will they continue to study?The life of a high school student is too boring. If Wu Xie agrees, he will definitely be willing to follow Wu Xie to his territory.

Li Cu has always been a stubborn person, but he usually only needs a small hint to figure something out.

Li Cuo called out almost as soon as he opened the door: "Boss Wu!"

However, in the next moment, Li Cu felt something was wrong. Wu Xie was indeed Wu Xie, but the presence in this room other than Wu Xie suddenly became glaring.

The very unpleasant story deep in the memory was stirred up again, Li Cu opened his eyes wide, and looked at the room full of something really scary: dead bodies.

Piles of corpses filled all corners of the room, including Wu Xie's feet and Wu Xie's back.

If it was just piles of corpses, Li Cu would not be as frightened as he is now. After all, he has seen and buried many mummified corpses in the desert, so he is more or less immune.

What instantly cooled Li Cu's smile was that Wu Xie was holding something like a saw in one hand, while the other hand was holding down a corpse with only the head and torso left.

Wu Xie was dividing up the corpse.

It was too late for Li Cu to avoid, he saw the face of the corpse.

It was his father's face.

Li Cu felt something suddenly bursting through his chest, it was a scream, his ears started to ring from his own shouting, and tears and snot flowed out uncontrollably.At that moment, there was only one feeling, so strong that it had already occupied all his consciousness, that feeling was called collapse.

But Li Cu's feet seemed to have taken root, and he couldn't move away at all. He felt his knees go limp, and he knelt down.His eyes were still locked on the face of the corpse, and then his eyes kept moving up and up, and finally stopped on Wu Xie's face.

There was no expression on Wu Xie's face, his eyes were a little careless, and his hands didn't stop dividing his father's body.Wu Xie's movements are skilled and precise, with ease.Then Li Cu heard a sound, it was the sound of skin and bones being cut by hard saw teeth, and with a loud friction sound, he saw his father's head was completely cut off.The wound on the neck was full of blood, but the blood did not gush out, because obviously his father had been dead for a long time, and the color of the blood had turned black and purple.

Li Cu was completely unconscious, he could only watch Wu Xie throw his father's head aside in a daze, and then he saw Wu Xie's eyes turned to him, and smiled faintly at him.

A certain string in his consciousness was connected. After Li Cu accumulated fear, shock, and collapse, another emotion occupied him, which was hatred.

He hated Wu Xie's betrayal, and even more hated himself who gave trust but was betrayed.

This is the fear tailor-made for Li Cuo by the pheromones of the giant snake—the collapse and betrayal of his whole-hearted trust.

Hatred is a dark emotion, but it often becomes a terrible driving force, but Li Cu doesn't know that if he is always occupied by this hatred, he will be driven by this driving force and eventually destroy himself.

Li Cu's body began to twitch, and Zhang Qiling knew that Li Cu must have seen something he couldn't stand.He quickly restrained Li Cu's wildly waving arms, trying to wake up Li Cu and told him not to believe it.

"At any time, choose to believe in snakes."

Wu Xie's words rang in his ears again.

Li Cu began to sneer from the bottom of his heart: "Boss Wu, you told me to believe in snakes, but what the snake showed me was this scene."

Dominated by hatred, Li Cu's brain began to think about revenge plans, he would wake up, he would win Zhang Qiling's trust, and then follow Zhang Qiling to find Wu Xie, and when he found Wu Xie, he would use all means to kill him, Or tell him that if he wants to live, he can't seek death.

Li Cu completely fell into hatred.

Zhang Qiling knew that the influence of the illusion on Li Cu was a foregone conclusion, but he did not give up on Li Cu, or help him end his pain.He has seen too many such things. It doesn't mean that he has seen too many people fall into an illusion and cannot extricate themselves, but that the people who are traveling with him are on the verge of death.But every time he will try his best to save their lives, this time he is more urgent, because Li Cu is an important partner of Wu Xie.

Time flashed by every minute and every second, Zhang Qiling used many methods such as rubbing the acupuncture points, but none of them woke up Li Cu.Li Cu's eyes were closed tightly, his forehead was covered with sweat, and his two thick eyebrows were knit together. This young man's face showed that he was enduring heavy pain that was not commensurate with his age.

But suddenly, Li Cu's expression changed obviously, with unwillingness and stubbornness, and then the masseter muscles on both sides of his face tensed up.

Zhang Qiling immediately realized what he was going to do, quickly pinched his cheeks, and used his fingers to pry open Li Cu's teeth.But it was still too late, Zhang Qiling's finger touched blood first, and then his own finger was bitten out of blood.

Li Cu bit his own tongue with the determination to bite it off.

One of the ways to alleviate the illusion is physical pain. Zhang Qiling had already pulled out the dagger. If he controlled his strength well, although Li Cu would be injured, he would not die.But this young man was even more determined to himself than he was.

After an unknown time, all the images and sounds in his consciousness gradually dissipated, Li Cu felt a sudden relaxation, his body seemed to be floating in the clouds, and the hatred and fear suppressed in his heart were suddenly resolved.The illusion was miraculously dispelled.

Li Cu took a deep breath and opened his eyes.

……

Li Cu lay on Zhang Qiling's back, and Zhang Qiling was walking towards the depths of the passage with him on his back.He was exhausted, his face was covered with blood around his mouth, his tongue was sore, and his eyes were swollen from too many tears.

Li Cu still doesn't know why he chose to trust Wu Xie instead of snake when he was on the verge of collapse.Facts have proved that his choice is correct.

Zhang Qiling's backpack hung on his chest, covering up some of the smell of snake blood.Although there are still some residual smells, Li Cuo is not afraid of it anymore, and his will is very clear.

If Wu Xie saw Zhang Qiling carrying others behind his back like this, he would be very jealous. Li Cuo was suddenly amused by his own thoughts.

Zhang Qiling walked very steadily. Li Cu was a little bit sorry at first, but he had no strength to walk by himself. He could only hold the flashlight, and in the light circle in front of him, two stone statues with strange shapes appeared, one was like a snake, and the other Not sure what it is, but it has a shell on its back, like a giant turtle.
