Chapter 462: The present is called history, the past is called the future
Chapter 462: The present is called history, the past is called the future (asking for monthly tickets)
"Hug...sorry!"
After being reminded, Gu Pan and the others came to their senses and quickly stopped what they were doing, their faces filled with shock.
It was as if I had completely lost my mind and was easily angered. It was obviously the same situation as before. My emotions were affected, but it was not greed, but anger.
Stepping into this almost identical pit twice in a row was undoubtedly an embarrassing mistake, and everyone was ashamed.
Xu Shu felt that there was nothing to be ashamed of, after all, he had been tricked as well.
The only difference was that others started fighting directly, while he had just found the target of the quarrel and had realized his mistake before he could start fighting - he originally wanted to have a fierce quarrel with Gu Pan who had her back to him and questioned her why she didn't look at him directly, but out of politeness he wanted to wait for her to finish first.
After a moment, Xu Shu said to the person lying on the ground with no expression: "Save him first."
"Okay, okay..." Gu Yueming blushed, hoping that no one would remember the shrewish words she had just said. Without stopping, she hurriedly pulled Shen Chongyang and gave him some medical bandages to treat his injuries.
While waiting, Xu Shu glanced at Lu Bingwei and whispered, "You woke up pretty quickly this time."
Lu Bingwei had no expression: "It's okay the first time, but if you get fooled again the second time, you'd be a fool."
"..." Everyone was immediately ashamed, this idiot was clearly scolding them.
Especially Xie Xiaochan, she puffed her lips and walked aside unhappily.
She was the most surprised among all the people present. As an advanced "Seven-Colored Taoist Nun", she claimed that she also had a path related to emotions and spirit. She didn't expect that when she was consciously on guard, she was hit for the second time and she didn't wake up faster than others. She really felt ashamed.
However, even after going through another round of twists and turns, the people at the scene were not worried at all. Instead, they all felt somewhat relaxed and looked expectantly at the third bronze door on the other side of the hall.
Shen Chongyang had just recovered from his injury, so he quickly apologized to Lu Bingwei and said, "Master Lu, I'm sorry for the trouble just now."
"Nothing." Lu Bingwei didn't care. After all, the other party couldn't hurt her at all.
After a brief silence, she ignored the others and looked at Xu Shu alone, frowning and asking, "In the next door, there will probably be some emotional control. Xu Shu, do you think you have a good grasp of it?"
Xu Shu did not answer directly, but pondered: "The first hall magnifies greed, and this hall magnifies anger. This is the standard Buddhist concept of 'greed' and 'anger'..."
"Oh? You discovered it too? You have a good vision." Lu Bingwei's eyes lit up and she said admiringly, "It seems that what you said before about having a Buddhist friend was true."
"Haha." After being praised, Xu Shu did not comment.
What do you mean I discovered it too? I probably know much more than you do!
As a knowledgeable folklorist, Xu Shu has a very obvious advantage, which is that he knows a little bit about this relatively complex knowledge.
In addition, he had learned from the "Mermaid" from the beginning that the ruins were full of the influence of Buddhism, and that the "God of Death" and "Ksitigarbha" were merged into one in reality and became the "Ksitigarbha with a tail"!
Now that we have established results, it is naturally easy to infer the process from the results and to deduce some rules from the characteristics of the two existing mental influences.
Lu Bingwei continued, "Buddhism has a concept called the three poisons of greed, anger and ignorance. Now it seems that the ruins below contain similar means. Since we have passed the two levels of greed and anger, the next level should most likely be 'ignorance', which means amplifying the influence of obsession..."
Before she could finish her words, the Soul Catcher Ms. Xifa smiled and said, "If this is the only impact, I think we can try the next level."
Huang Lili behind him also said: "Indeed, although this power is very strange and hard to defend against, it seems that apart from slightly affecting the mind, there is no means of direct attack, so it is not a big threat."
"Haha, that makes sense. After all, we are all level three extraordinary people, and we are even led by a master from the Human Ranking. The original mechanism here may be able to crush those below level three."
"Haha, of course you can!"
"Brother Xu, what do you think?"
Everyone was talking at once, rubbing their hands and looking at Xu Shu, expecting his response - after all, Xu Shu had become the recognized "wall breaker" in everyone's mind. Whether it was opening a bronze door or a prison treasury door, they could not do without this terrifying "dragon elephant".
Xu Shu, who was highly anticipated by everyone, rolled his eyes, glanced around, and weighed the options in his mind.
Although these guys may be a little weak in terms of strength, and any one of them is probably not even at the level of the 'Two Friends of Winter', they were easily hit and reacted quite strongly, but their eyesight is not bad and they can see the weakness here.
If it is just the influence of "greed, anger, and ignorance" that controls the mind and tries to create internal strife, it may cause great resistance to those teams with relatively even distribution of strength, but it will not affect their strange team with uneven strength levels and a huge difference between the upper and lower limits.
With the presence of "No Microwaves" and "The Man of the Weird Way" who are two guys whose strength far exceeds that of their peers, they can suppress this situation that could cause great damage to the team!
However, although he thought so in his heart, Xu Shu did not jump to conclusions directly. Instead, he threw the question to others in a gentlemanly manner: "Jun Moxiao, what do you think?"
"Um……?"
Gu Pan was startled at first, then he raised his chin slightly, "I think we can give it a try, but we have to be careful this time. Even if we are caught, we have to control our hands and feet and don't act rashly."
The second half of her sentence was directed at her original team of six. Every time, it was her people who had problems first, which made Gu Pan feel quite embarrassed.
After hearing what she said, the others nodded in agreement.
Everyone agreed immediately and without hesitation, they maintained their original formation and followed Xu Shu familiarly, crossing the hall and arriving at the third door.
Squeak!
Xu Shu transformed into a door-opening expert and pushed open the third bronze door.
Amidst bursts of piercing roars and falling clouds, a wide hall appeared before everyone's eyes.
The same circular plaza design, rusty and weathered prisons, and the huge statue of the "Sexy Spirit King" that was almost copied and pasted.
This familiar feeling, which was exactly the same as before, made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
It seems that the previous speculations were very accurate!
Of course there is a difference.
You can see that there is only one bronze door for entry and exit, and there is no door at the other end.
"It seems that this is the last temple?"
Everyone looked at each other and showed joyful expressions.
Judging from past exploration experience and the current situation here, this is the treasure house at the bottom!
After taking away the treasure here, this exploration will be successfully concluded.
It looks like nothing unexpected happened this time!
"Don't do anything rash. Be careful of the mental effects that may occur later."
"Yes, yes, keep your mind alert!"
"Keep away from each other and don't get too close." Shen Chongyang reminded them, apparently afraid that he would be "overconfident" and attack someone in a moment.
At this time, Gu Pan suddenly cleared his throat, but he did not point to the target under the statue, but pointed to the surrounding cells: "Brother Xu, please go first! We will wait for you to finish searching these first, and then go to take the treasure suppressed in the middle."
She knew that her student loved to "pick up bargains" and would not miss even a penny. Considering that this was the last treasure map, she said this.
"...Thank you." Xu Shu did not refuse and went to sweep the place away like a whirlwind again.
The others had no objections either. After all, Xu Shu had worked so hard for so long, and it was reasonable to treat these gold, silver, and jewelry as a reward for his hard work. No one would be so blind as to snatch them from Xu Shu.
While Xu Shu was picking up trash nearby, they were not idle either. They gathered in front of the slightly raised platform under the feet of the statue to observe the contents of this independent cell. Although they still had to avoid Xu Shu when he kicked the door later, the treasure was right in front of them, and everyone couldn't help but feast their eyes on it first.
Looking through the iron window, one sees a coat that looks like it is being stretched out on a hanger.
It is red all over, like a flame burning in winter, a rich and mellow wine red, deep and elegant;
There are tufts of white plush at the collar, which are thick and shiny, sparkling with lively light, as if each hair is a carefully carved work of art.
"Um, a fur coat?"
"probably."
"What a nice mink! But how can there be a mink made of red? This color combination is very rare."
"The white fur looks very nice. I have never seen fur like it. I'm afraid it's not ordinary mink fur."
"Look at the golden eyes painted on the fabric. They look so lifelike..."
"But what is this? A weapon? Or a symbol of some kind?"
"Have you two figured out anything?" Everyone looked at each other, and finally turned their attention to Xie Xiaochan and Lu Bingwei, who were obviously from prominent families and had extraordinary knowledge.
The latter two frowned and did not give any answer for a while.
It seemed that with their vision, they were unable to see the specialness of the red fur coat inside.
Seeing this, Gu Pan leaned back slightly, feeling a little proud.
Even if they are famous brands, their vision is only this high!
She immediately sank into her mind, slightly released the soul in her mind and asked, "Ancestor, can you take a look at the origin of this thing?"
"...When you have something to do, you call me ancestor, and when you have nothing to do, you secretly call me old thing, right?"
"Hey, no way."
A lazy and mature female voice in his mind snorted coldly, but soon an imperceptible perception extended along Gu Pan's body.
She passed through the iron doors and windows, suspended in the illusion, silently observing the red coat in front of her.
For a long time, there was no reply.
Can't our ancestors see it? It's really not good, this old guy is out of date... As the thought flashed, Gu Pan glanced and caught a glimpse of one of the golden eye patterns on the fur coat.
It suddenly squirmed, trembled slightly, and then suddenly opened.
It was like an ancient gaze that had passed through countless ages, just looking over quietly, gazing at Gu Pan!
"..."
"Is the treasure alive this time?"
Gu Pan's heart skipped a beat. As an official "qualifier" who had received professional training and had passed the six subjects with top grades, he knew very well that among these suspected ancient treasures, the most terrifying ones were those with eyes or mouths.
The former is more likely to represent "curse" or "charm", while the latter often has characteristics such as "seduction" and "deception"!
Gu Pan quickly opened his mouth to remind his teammates that this thing was very dangerous and asked them not to stare at it all the time to avoid any problems.
But at this moment, the ancestor suddenly retracted the part that had been extended, and said quickly in her mind with an extremely serious tone: "The storage bag is lost! Quick!"
Almost at the same time, there seemed to be two people in the air around her, using a language she couldn't understand, and coughed angrily and hatefully: "Ahem!"
Gu Pan felt a sharp electric shock pain in his right thigh.
That was the storage tool she carried with her, an inconspicuous gray-black storage bag that was constantly swelling and making a friction sound under the heavy weight!
"!!!"
Gu Pan's pupils suddenly shrank, and without saying a word, he reached out and grabbed the thing on it and threw it on the ground.
Snapped!
The storage bag burst the moment it hit the ground.
"Hahahaha!"
Along with a large number of purple and blue crystals flying everywhere, the "Mask of Pain" inside soared into the sky and turned into several meters wide. It made a tut-tut laugh and spit out a large amount of billowing black fog.
At the same time, Xie Xiaochan's body suddenly shook, and the small jade pendant on her waist also exploded. The "blood dropper" inside broke the storage props, and the eight locking blades revealed strange smiling faces. They spun around and covered her head with lightning speed, and twisted it suddenly.
Click!
"Wow!"
Suddenly, a shrill baby cry and a strange beast roar were heard in the air, and Xie Xiaochan fell to the ground.
"What!?!"
"what happened!"
"what happens!"
This time, the situation changed suddenly and everything happened too fast.
Everyone had no time to react. They only saw Xie Xiaochan lying on the ground in front of them, looking like she had died suddenly. They were horrified and screamed, covering their mouths and noses and backing away.
But at this time, thick black fog had enveloped the scene, and one could not see one's hand in front of one's face. The blood-dropping dagger that was suspected to have killed Xie Xiaochan instantly twisted like a python and disappeared into the fog.
Soon, a disgusting stench gushed out everywhere, and strange sizzling sounds were heard all around, as if some huge monster was hiding in the black fog, waiting for an opportunity to move, staring at everyone closely!
"???"
Gu Pan's pupils shrank slightly, and he hurriedly tried to find his ancestor, asking her what she had just discovered. Strangely, his ancestor seemed to have hidden away and disappeared without a trace after the strange crying sound.
"What should I do? She...she's not...she's still breathing!"
Gu Yueming was closest to Xie Xiaochan. Seeing that although her head was covered in blood and she looked dead, she still had a heartbeat. He quickly gave her a layer of green fluorescence and looked around in fear.
She felt as if there were a dozen eyes around her, staring at her in different directions.
"Retreat quickly! Something is wrong here!" Ms. Xifa hurriedly tried to use "Stop the Wind and Waves" again to blow away some of the fog.
But at this moment, a huge snake head covered with thorns and scales emerged from the nearby black fog and was about to swallow her in one bite.
"!" Qianfa's hair stood on end, and she felt a strong premonition of death looming in her heart.
At this moment, a golden figure suddenly appeared from the side, rushing out like a crab. It was Xu Shu who rushed over after the incident.
He first hit the basilisk's head hard, but found that it didn't move at all. Then he quickly hooked his foot on Xifa's hips and kicked her out directly, and the huge python's mouth immediately bit Xu Shu.
Snap! Kwa!
Under the pressure of the snake's fangs, golden light flashed on Xu Shu's body, and layers of shields shattered like tofu dregs.
One second!
"Jingwei Filling the Sea" even lasted less than a second!
"Damn it, how could it be...it's this!"
Xu Shu finally saw the appearance of the snake's head clearly, and his pupils couldn't help but shrink.
"grass!"
The snake's fangs pressed down on one's head, and there was no way to avoid it.
Faced with this powerful force that was impossible to resist, Xu Shu's eyes fixed, and then he disappeared out of thin air.
Boom!
The snake bit up and down, and the terrifying air waves it emitted blew everyone away.
But he failed to hit Xu Shu.
"call……"
A terrifying, slightly doubtful growl came from the black fog.
Xu Shu appeared dozens of meters away, holding Xie Xiaochan in his arms and dragging Gu Yueming away.
He had been maintaining the "wearing nine and wearing one" posture, which came in handy at the critical moment and he forcibly avoided the horrific bite!
"Run!" As soon as he landed, Xu Shu ran without any hesitation.
In the Taichu volume, a line of bright and large characters appeared:
[Oh no, it’s over now! ]
[After some close contact, you suddenly discovered that the person who appeared in front of you was actually your old friend - Yamata no Orochi! ]
[It actually turned into the appearance of a blood-dropping guillotine, and it seems to be sealed here, disguising itself as a treasure, waiting for the destined person. ]
[Now you have been fooled. They should have been hiding, waiting for you to try to successfully bring them out of the underground, but for some reason they suddenly attacked. You are dead now! ]
