After nightfall, I returned to the apse and rested with Lu Mingchen after bathing.

But today's situation is a bit strange. After entering midnight, I began to feel a dull pain in my abdomen. At first, I could bear it, but the pain gradually intensified, and for a while it made me feel like being stabbed by a knife.Intense pain spread to my limbs after a while, large drops of cold sweat slipped down my neck and into my collar, and even breathing became a little difficult.

The candle was extinguished, I raised my hand with difficulty, and looked through the starlight, and found that the nails of my hands had turned a terrifying blood red!

This is……

After being startled, I wanted to get up, but found that I was completely exhausted. I could only half-support my body and push the shoulder of the person who was sleeping with me with all my strength.

"Ming Chen, Ming Chen..."

Human youths have always been in light sleep, and they were fully awake after I called out a few times. After the shock, they hurriedly supported me, "Star Lord, what's wrong with you?!" He looked at me anxiously, and at the same time wanted to light a fire not far away. place candles.

"Don't... light the lamp!" I hurriedly stopped his movements, "Ming Chen... come here, keep your voice down."

"Star Lord, this is..." The young man held me half in his arms, stroked my sweaty forehead hair, his eyes were full of distress.

"It's okay, I just took the unpurified soul and fell under the curse." I tried to smile and tried to calm myself down.

"Heart mantra?" The young man didn't seem to understand the meaning of this word.

"I can't tell at the moment... Cough..." The pain spreading all over my body prevented me from opening my mouth smoothly. I coughed lightly in order to breathe, but my mouth was full of blood.Black blood leaked from between my fingers, dripping onto Lu Mingchen's lapel.

My eyes went dark, and a strong sense of dizziness hit me at the same time.

But I knew that if I fainted at this time, everything might really be over, so I inserted my nails deeply into the palm of my hand, barely resisting the sudden dizziness with pain.

When I regain my strength and see everything in front of me clearly, the first thing I see is the concerned and anxious faces of young human beings.

He stroked my face lightly, but because of what I said just now, he could only call out in a low voice: "Star Lord... Shen Yin, Shen Yin..." He tried his best to endure his emotions, but even the weak me at this time It was also easy to feel his worry and melancholy, as well as a trace of repressed fear.

At this moment, I made a bold decision.

"It's okay, don't worry, I'm not the girl who can't fight back, I'll be fine." Probably because of the bruise I just spit out, my strength temporarily recovered a little, and my speech became fluent again, "Ming Chen, now I'm I need your help."

The young man held my hand tightly, and pressed his warm face against my cold cheek, "Okay, no matter what it is, as long as it is your expectation."

"I was cursed, and I can probably guess who did it and his purpose." Now I finally understand why that person asked such a thing that day, "Although the curse is powerful, But it’s not enough to be fatal to me. The person who harmed me will definitely not let it go. I’ve probably already calculated the time of my attack, and I’ll be here soon. So now, I need you to help me with something extremely important thing……"

I pushed the young man away and looked deeply into his eyes, "Lu Mingchen, can I trust you? Will you let me down?"

"Star Lord..." The young man also looked at me.

After a while, he lifted me up and half leaned on the pillow, then knelt on the ground with one knee, held my hands, raised his head and said firmly: "Please believe me, I will definitely not let you down."

The pain made it impossible for me to muster the strength to look into a person's heart through his eyes.

I never really trusted anyone.

Nor has he ever attempted to voluntarily place his life in the hands of another.

But today, I seem to have no choice but to make a gamble, and I must choose someone who can trust everything.

And I chose him, Lu Mingchen.

Time does not allow me to continue to think about it. The enemy who intends to take my life may already be on the way here.

Gathering all my strength, I put the index finger of my right hand between Lu Mingchen's eyebrows, and a ray of brilliance slowly sank into his forehead.

That was the image I sent into his mind with what little magic I had.

As I drew the image directly in his mind, I explained with some difficulty: "After you enter the secret passage, you can see a winding dragon road. The whole road is a giant dragon made of gold. In the air, you have to keep walking along its back, and never go in a straight line for the sake of getting closer. Along this road, you will soon see three doors, on which are drawn a man, a woman, There is also a skeleton. You enter through the door with the woman painted on it, and after that, no matter what appears around Panlong Dao, you must not make a wrong step. Whether it is gold, treasure, or beauty, there will even be many of you hidden in the bottom of my heart The visions of the fulfillment of desires in the depths will appear there one by one, but those are just illusions that lure you to death. If you really do not withstand the temptation and leave the Panlong Dao, the bottom is the abyss. Panlong Dao At the end is a round platform with eight toads carved around it. On the top of the platform is a clean bottle with a half-red peach blossom inserted in it. You take out half of the peach blossom, and the round platform will suddenly burst into flames. At this time, remember not to panic, but to stand in the center of the round platform tightly holding the peach blossoms, and remember to close your eyes. After a while, you will find yourself back here again."

I withdrew my finger between the young man's eyebrows, "Remember? You can't make a mistake in every step, otherwise you will die. When you come back here, give me the half peach blossom, and all the accidents will end here. "

"En." The young man nodded solemnly, "You must wait for me to come back."

"Okay, this is our agreement."

I bowed my head and pressed a kiss on the young man's forehead, turned around and poured the last magic power into my fingertips, picked off the pearl held by the phoenix on the front of the bed, and then inserted the little finger of my left hand into the phoenix's mouth.The moment I put my finger in, a dark red brilliance glowed on the original sandalwood-carved phoenix, and the phoenix seemed to come alive suddenly, opened its hard beak, and bit my fingertip with one bite.

Black blood slowly dripped into Fenghuang's mouth, and on the wall behind my bed, a secret door opened silently.

"Go." I pulled Lu Mingchen up and pushed him into the secret door.

He looked at me as if he wanted to say something, but the secret door was closed in front of him.

I closed my eyes, forbidding myself to think about him again, and then quickly put the pearl in my hand back into Phoenix's mouth.

After doing all this, as the spirit suddenly relaxed, the piercing pain came back again.

I sat on the head of the bed, unable to lift a single finger for a while, and could only try to pull my mind away from the pain in my body, thinking about everything I might have to deal with next. After a while, a familiar sound of footsteps came from outside the hall. From far to near.

It turned out that everything was exactly as I expected.

I took a few deep breaths, regained my strength and barely put on my coat, and then slowly adjusted my posture and sat upright on the head of the bed.

The person who walked in happened to have lifted the last layer of veil that went deep into the palace.

I met his deep gaze, "Su Lan, you are still here."

At this time, Su Lan was much taller, with broad shoulders and narrow waist. Although her appearance had not changed, she was already a man.

"Star Lord," he smiled, "how does it feel to be cursed?"

While speaking, three or four demons walked in behind him one after another, all looking at me warily.

I looked at him quietly, "If you want to know how I feel now, you can come and try yourself."

My eyes swept over the following demons one by one, and then I smiled slightly, and they immediately took a few steps back.

One of the demons looked at me in horror, came to Su Lan's side, whispered in his ear: "Master Su Lan, Xing... Lord, has he really fallen under the curse?"

"Useless stuff!" Su Lan turned around and slapped him, "If he didn't have the center mantra, do you think you still have life?!"

After adjusting his breathing, he looked around and came back to me, "Where is that human? Did he run away because he was afraid of Star Lord's current appearance?"

I remained calm, "Don't worry about it."

Ten fingernails and lips of a person who has been cursed will turn blood red, and the skin will turn gray. If you see it for the first time, you will indeed be shocked.

Probably my appearance at this time is also extremely frightening.

What is rare is that just now Lu Mingchen did not show the slightest look of panic.

I said in a deep voice, "What is your purpose? Since you have used the Heart Mantra and the Fear Technique at the same time, you should have considered the result."

After learning that I was cursed, I already guessed that the person who cast the curse should be Sulan.

The demons can only eat pure human souls, otherwise, the serious ones will die immediately, and the light ones will suffer from severe pain and lose their magic power. This is the most overbearing heart curse in the spell, and it is a very serious "deviant" behavior.The soul Su Lan presented to me at the closing ceremony tonight should be the medium of the mantra.

The color of a pure soul is pure white, which is the color revealed from the soul and cannot be easily changed.In order to fool me, he probably also used a spell other than curse to change the color of the living soul.

Using two taboo powers at once, their actions this time can be regarded as ruined.

After listening to my words, Su Lan smiled slightly, "It seems that you have already noticed it, so we don't have to be polite. Let me ask you the question from last time: How can we continue the life of the demons?"

The pain was still eroding my senses all the time, but I raised the corners of my lips, "If what you want is this, then you will never get anything?"

"Oh?" He narrowed his eyes, as if he wanted to confirm the truth of this sentence from my expression.

I continued: "I think I explained the reason of this incident clearly enough last time, why you still can't believe it?"

Su Lan was silent for a moment, then suddenly said: "If there is really no way to prolong the life of the demons, then at least you should know the method of rebirth."

My heart trembled, but my face didn't show it at all, "Rebirth? Su Lan, you have one strange question after another. Could it be that you put a curse on me just because of these whimsical ideas of your own? You don't hesitate to use two at the same time. A forbidden technique? Before making such a decision, shouldn't you verify the unfounded speculation in your heart? Or have you decided from the beginning that even if there is no way to prolong life or rebirth, you should try it first? And Let these people pay for your stupidity together, eh?"

The other demons looked at each other for a while, and then all looked at Sulan.

"Star Lord, you are really powerful. You are still in the mood to drive us apart at this point." Su Lan sneered a few times, "But it's a pity that spending all this hard work is doomed to be in vain. There is no way out for the few of us. It's..."

His voice lowered, and he brushed the long hair behind him to his chest with his backhand.

The crescent moon is like a hook, under the bright moonlight, I can clearly see his long purple hair mixed with traces of silver light!

I glanced at the hair of several other demons again, and found that one or two people also had white hair on their heads.

Su Lan looked down at the silver threads between her fingers, then turned her head to look at me, walked slowly to my side, sat down on the edge of the bed, "Star Lord, I have long realized that you are different from ordinary demons. Not only is your power stronger than when you were the king of the north, but sometimes it’s not a big deal if you don’t take the living soul on time. Later, I heard a rumor that you were once reborn.”

He lifted up one side of my hair and held Mosuo in his palm, "Hillions of years, your lifespan is longer than anyone I've ever seen, this black hair has never turned white, What is the reason? After all this, you still don’t want to talk about it?”

"Is it because of this reason?" I didn't look at him, but cast my eyes into the distance, "I came up with such a way to prolong life? Have you ever thought that using such means to achieve the goal can only Backfired."

For a long time, I didn't notice the hair color changes of Su Lan and the other two demons, probably because they used hair dyeing tools.

But this time I was cursed, not because I let my guard down.

Although there is no definite content about the punishment for demons using forbidden techniques, I have seen too many tragic examples that have been tried and tested.Su Lan has always followed by my side, and has always kept in mind the sad fate of those demons.

Although I can't talk about the deep master-servant friendship with him, among all the demons, he is the only one who has accompanied me through the longest time.

Before tonight, I really didn't expect that he would take such a big shame and make such a move tonight.

"Star Lord, haven't you noticed?" Su Lan suddenly grabbed my hair and pulled it back. I felt a tingling pain in my scalp and was forced to raise my head.

He pointed out the other demons to me one by one, "He, he, and he have all decided to follow me." He lowered his head and looked into my eyes, "Do you know what this is for? The protoss has been destroyed, the demon race seems to stand at the top of this world, this is the glory of you as the superiors, but those of us who are lowly have to face death. This is not only for the few of us who are about to die It is more about the life and death of the entire demon clan. As the leader, shouldn’t you think of a way to save the entire demon clan? How can you be alone with peace of mind, sitting on the law of rebirth, but not sharing it with your fellow clan? "

Every word he said was aggressive, but I knew the true meaning very well.

"Sulan, I think the fear of death has made you lose your mind. Maybe I should say it again, there is no way to regenerate the demons in this world." I didn't move, just gathered my strength silently, but The power of the mantra is so powerful that I even feel pain in breathing, and I have exhausted all my strength just to speak.

There is indeed no way to regenerate the demons in this world, but there are things that can regenerate the demons.

But that thing, even if I lost my life because of it, I would never use it on anyone else.

"No?" Su Lan pulled my hair tightly and pulled me down on the bed, "Star Master, it seems that you like toasting instead of fine wine."

He waved to the other demons, "Come here, you guys! Hold him down."

Those demons hesitated for a while, but they still came to the bed and pressed me face down on the bed.

Su Lan pulled out the sword from her waist, and put one hand on my shoulder, "Star Master, I really don't want to use this method on you. Let me ask you again, do you really not know?"

His hand was slowly groping on one side of my shoulder blade, and I immediately realized what he was planning, and my heart sank.

The sense of fear that I haven't seen for many years made my scalp numb. I took a deep breath and forced myself to say: "Since you don't believe it, why bother to ask? Ah—hmm——!!!"

Before I could finish my sentence, a heart-piercing pain came from my left shoulder, and I only had time to suppress the scream that I was about to utter in my throat.

A cold sword pierced through my back shoulder and protruded from my chest.

Not long after, Su Lan pulled out her saber violently again, and the gushing blood gushed out quickly, dyeing the bed sheet under me black.

The shoulder blades on both sides are where the demon Yuan Yu was. Such an extremely sensitive place was severely injured. I just felt that the whole person seemed to be torn in half in an instant.

Su Lan whispered softly in my ear: "Star Master, how is it? Do you know now, or don't you know?"

I just felt buzzing in my ears, and it took me a while to understand what he said.

"You...cough..." A sword pierced my chest, and my lungs were stabbed, and I coughed up blood as soon as I opened my mouth, "...I will definitely... smash you...to pieces...cough cough ……part……"

"At this point, can you still utter threats?" Su Lan smiled darkly, "Star Master, I seem to have to admire you."

While talking, he put his hand into the wound on my shoulder, and slowly pulled out something like a wing under my shoulder blade.

The huge pain made me unable to help violently struggling with my limbs, but I was firmly pressed down.

It was a feeling of being pinched by someone's heart.

Suffocation, tearing, crazy pain, instinctive fear of impending death.

I know what Sulan is catching.

That is my original feather hidden under the flesh and blood, the source of life of the demons.

Su Lan held the original feather on my left side in her hand, and gently pulled the feather on it as if playing with it. I felt as if my internal organs were being grabbed, and I couldn't help vomiting.

"Star Lord, why don't you say anything?"

I could feel the hands holding my limbs started to sweat, but Su Lan's voice was still composed.

I didn't answer right away, the limit of suffering pain was almost reached, and my consciousness began to withdraw.

The author has something to say: the prelude to the big turning point is here.
