The Secret Art of Refining the Dead: The Walking Corpse File

Chapter 229 Stone
lie to us?What's the point of him tricking us into coming to this place?
I said, "What did the boss say?"

Tang Linlin shrugged: "Wait and see."

So I didn't say a word, and I roughly knew what happened later.Although I was turned into a corpse for the time being, Zhou Xuanye didn't intend to use me as an old scalper. After all, the more I use it now, the greater the side effects after waking up.In order to prevent me from being paralyzed when I woke up, Zhou Xuanye would not let me do anything unless necessary, so he let me stand in the treasure room to rest, and a few people decided to go to the front to explore the way first, but they met the red one again. thing.

Unable to resist, Zhou Xuanye summoned me with the corpse bell, but I woke up early and was not under the control of the corpse bell.

When I heard this, I looked at Jiang Xi who was leading the way ahead, and couldn't help but be on guard.

What purpose does this person have?Is all this a coincidence, is it our bad luck, or did he design it on purpose?
At this moment, the surroundings were unusually quiet. Tang Linlin was walking on my left, looking around vigilantly. We paid close attention to the red things in the cracks of the bricks, in case they would suddenly appear and attack.The surrounding area was pitch black, and the lights were shining in all directions. It was impossible to see the end at a glance, and I didn't know where it was.As far as the eye can see, there are only blue bricks on the ground.

The red things in the cracks of the floor tiles became restless after a while, and Jiang Xi reminded us, "Be careful, this thing is probably the legendary flaming bone."

Tang Linlin regained her strength and said, "Flame bone? What a strange name, this thing looks like jelly, how can it look like a bone?"

Without looking back, Jiang Xi said, "It's a very vicious thing. It is said that it is boiled out of dead people's bones, and I have a lot of resentment. I am not from the Judiciary Hall. I don't know how to practice it, but I have heard of it. One But if you are entangled by this thing, it is difficult to get out, and after a long time, the prey will be squeezed to death and digested. The more living things you eat, the bigger these things will grow."

My scalp is numb when I hear it, is it boiled out of dead people's bones?The Yangu we saw before was very large, so it must have eaten a lot of living things?It seems that for hundreds of years, many outsiders have broken into this place, and most of them... have been swallowed by this thing. "

Tang Linlin immediately said: "How should we deal with them? We can't urinate now." When it comes to urinating, my crotch is wet now, subconsciously, I went to look at the crotches of Tan Ren and Zhou Xuanye, unfortunately both were wearing I wore black trousers, so I didn't see any tricks, but Tang Linlin saw it and pinched my arm fiercely.

Without looking back, Jiang Xi said, "The best way to deal with Yan Gu is salt."

It's Yan again. Does everyone in Yumen have a grudge against Yan?

Where do we get salt now?All over my body, the only thing with a salty taste is probably my body that hasn't bathed for a few days, but if this little salt is useful, then Yan Gu wouldn't dare to swallow us.When depressed, everyone continued to walk forward under the leadership of Jiang Xi. After walking about ten steps, a grayish white suddenly appeared at the end of the flashlight.

This color, in the dark environment and the black floor tiles, is particularly eye-catching, and it catches everyone's attention in an instant.I took a closer look and found that the off-white color in my sight should be a kind of natural stone, very large, and Heng Geng was more than ten meters away in front of us.

On the surface of the stone, there are many reliefs, which cannot be seen from a distance, but when you look closer, you find that it is something carved on the stone, but it is not comparable to the poor carvings we have seen before.There is a huge tree carved on it. The giant tree has branches but no leaves. On the branches are green mountains and green waters, yellow sand and blue sea, all kinds of rare birds and beasts, and all kinds of exotic flowers and plants, like heaven and earth. All the scenes in the world are concentrated on this tree.

I only know that the ancients believed in a round sky, but I have never heard of it. They believed that the world was born on trees.

The whole piece of stone was very huge. Zhou Xuanye inspected it and saw that it was about ten meters long and four to five meters high. The end of the stone was embedded in the green bricks of the wall, and it was glued together very tightly.The entire set of stone carvings uses quite complicated techniques. As far as I know, there are shallow reliefs, deep reliefs, openwork, openwork, tops, and there seems to be signs of round carvings.

Even people like me who don't know much about art feel that the craftsmanship on this piece of stone has a truly touching beauty. For a while, everyone was a little stunned.The landscapes of plants on the top are big and small, and the smaller they go up, some are as big as a car cover, and some are as small as a jujube stone. It is difficult to look sideways at the condensed thousands of styles.

I was the first to react, there is no other reason, because I was trained once before, my potential was exhausted, and then I was tossed and tossed, and now I suddenly relaxed, my body was like a melted popsicle, and my legs went limp , fell to the ground with one ass, and couldn't help but "ouch".

This sound brought Tan Ren and others back to their senses. Seeing my situation, Zhou Xuanye immediately squatted beside me and said, "You need to rest for a while."

"Brother Zhou, should you pull out those wedges on my body?" Although it doesn't feel like the thing is stuck in the flesh, it still feels quite bad.

Zhou Xuanye was silent for a while, patted my shoulder, and said, "The time has not come yet."

"Timing?" Tang Linlin was very dissatisfied with the fact that I was being used by Zhou Xuanye, and said, "What timing are you waiting for, Zhou Huhu, don't you want to use him again?" Tang Linlin secretly called Zhou Huhu It was probably because he really cared about me at the moment, and he wanted to fight for me, so he yelled out without hesitation.

Zhou Xuanye didn't say anything about it, but Tan Ren snorted coldly, and glared at Tang Linlin. The atmosphere became a little awkward for a while.The four of us, except for Tan Ren, have always been squabbling on weekdays, and Zhou Xuanye is also a person who has no airs, so this is really the first time I have experienced this awkward atmosphere.

Following Tang Linlin's words, Zhou Xuanye also showed guilt.

I didn't think it could go on like this, so I said, "Linlin, I know you are thinking of me, but I did it voluntarily... Although we are colleagues and subordinates in name, I have always regarded you as life and death friends in my heart." Friends. Brother Zhou and the boss saved me from danger several times, and you... If it wasn't for you last time, I would have been killed by someone Fu Nan asked me to do. I'm actually very pleased to be able to save you this time. "

Tang Linlin almost cried when she heard the words, and said, "Tian Tian, ​​you are also my best friend."

Tan Ren and Zhou Xuanye fell into silence. After Tang Linlin finished speaking, Zhou Xuanye said to me: "You will wake up suddenly, which is actually beyond my expectation. This should be related to the fox fairy. I'm not sure, if now What will become of you if you remove the corpse refining technique. The current situation is too critical, if you can't act on your own, I'm afraid it will be difficult to take care of you if something unexpected happens."

Immediately, I understood what Zhou Xuanye meant, that is to say, I can walk and run now, which is relatively light, because the corpse control wedge is still there, but if I pull out this thing, what will happen to me? It's hard to be sure.But according to what Zhou Xuanye said before, it could range from lying down for a year and a half, to paralysis and premature death.

The current situation is obviously not suitable, everything can only be discussed after leaving this ghost place.

Immediately, I nodded and said nothing more.In fact, I was very confused. Anyone who knew that I might become disabled in the near future would not be able to calm down.But at this time, I can only force myself to be calm. At this time, showing panic and fear will only make the people around me more uneasy, and it will not help me at all.

Zhou Xuanye's expression was full of guilt, he was ridiculed by Tang Linlin, and he didn't refute a word.In the end, Zhou Xuanye squeezed the hand on my shoulder hard, with a serious expression on his face, he said, "Tian Gu, you are not my friend."

"Huh?" I was stunned, feeling like I was being slapped in the face.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Xuanye said again: "I have a lot of friends, you are my brother, I only have one brother, that turtle hair, and you are the second." When he said this, his expression did not reveal any joke mean.

Tan Ren who was standing next to him said nonchalantly, "It's very cheap to have a brother like you, but I admit it."

All of a sudden, a rush of heat surged up in my heart, and I was about to speak out excitedly, when Jiang Xi on the side spoke: "Are you guys finished with your mess? Come here when you're done, there's something behind this stone."

The four of us looked at each other, finally got up, walked to Jiang Xi's side, and began to concentrate on studying this huge stone embedded in the wall.

What's behind it?How did Jiang Xi know?Can he still see through?
