Chapter 115 Soul Detainer Two Envoys Black and White Impermanence 2 in 1
Chapter 115 The Second Envoy of Soul-Restraining, Black and White Impermanence (2 in 1)
The dice changed again, its eighteen sides were blurred, and two of them were clearly printed with "one" and "two" respectively.
It looks more and more like a real dice.
【Please name "Form 2".】
Zheng Xiu touched the "2" side with his finger.
A small carving knife appeared in his hand.
Zheng Xiu stared blankly at the "carving knife" in his hand.
wrong.
Why did he subconsciously think that this was a "carving knife" instead of a "flying knife"?
He was thinking of "shooting" the Blood Crow down, but as soon as he shot it, it turned out like this.
"Is it the influence of the knife Sun Erming gave me and the phrase 'divination'?"
"A kind of... psychological suggestion?"
Zheng Xiu frowned.
He has long felt that "doorway" is like an infectious disease. And "foreign people" are more like the source of this infectious disease and can influence each other.
I never expected that Sun Erming's words would have such a huge impact.
His casual words of "divination" and the carving knife seemed to have implanted a model of "carving knife" in Zheng Xiu's cognition. When the time was right, Zheng Xiu took action, and the dice and Zheng Xiu were in a strange situation.
When combined, it automatically becomes the shape of a "carving knife".
Putting aside the inherent impression, the small carving knife held in the palm of my hand now looks more like a flying knife.
In the scene where the blood crow was shot down, the flying knife thrown out of Zheng Xiu's hand looked like a bullet - a bullet for shooting birds.
"Little Zheng Feidao, is your strength in vain?"
Zheng Xiu made a little joke for himself.
【Please name "Form 2".】
A small line of text appears in the void from time to time, as if urging.
Zheng Xiu didn't bother with it.
After careful consideration, Zheng Xiu decided on the name of [Form 2].
"Jinghong!"
【Named successfully.】
[Trick: Jiazi, there are currently two forms. 】
[The "Surprise Cage" challenge has been triggered. 】
[You can check the details after reading the "Rule Book".]
Um?
Since the last time I had a thorough heart-to-heart talk with Riddle Arm.
Zheng Xiu understood that there was some kind of mysterious existence hidden in the gray mist outside the prison of his heart.
The Riddle Arm came from the depths of the gray mist, left behind a few strange riddles, and then returned to the depths of the gray mist again. It hurried away without rushing, damn it.
Nowadays, every time words come up, Zheng Xiu doesn't want to pay attention to them.
But this time, Zheng Xiu's curiosity defeated his fear.
The white-covered [Rule Book] appears on the game table.
Since the last time I pulled out the big treasure [Heaven and Earth Convergence and Returning to One Sword Intent] from the first page of the [Li Rule Book], and turned back to the next page, it was all blank. Zheng Xiu said that he had been deceived, and he never read it again.
[Rule Book].
Now, on the pages of the [Li Rule Book] that had become blank after being taken away by [Heaven and Earth Cross Gang and Return to One Sword Intent], lines of text appeared again.
This is the new rule.
Why can't I write in front of my eyes in the usual way?
Zheng Xiu was puzzled.
But after Zheng Xiu carefully checked the new rules, his breathing suddenly shortened, and he vaguely understood why.
The reason is simple if you put it bluntly: cheating cannot be made public.
You have to hide it and say it.
[Challenge: Surprise Cage.]
[Trigger condition: The number of inherent forms of the monster is greater than one, and the number of equippable traits is greater than one.]
【Challenge content:】
[Challenge limits will be increased when using tricks.]
【Each time you use a trick, a "surprise combination" will be activated.】
[In the "Surprise Combination" state, within the countdown limit, the power of each form of the monster will be greatly improved. 】
【Successfully completing the challenge may increase the degree of compatibility.】
[If the challenge fails, the monster will self-destruct at the end of the countdown, and the avatar has a very small chance of surviving the self-destruction.]
[After starting the "Surprise Cage" challenge, you cannot stop the "Surprise Cage" challenge in any way before the compatibility is full. 】
【Please actively challenge yourself.】
Zheng Xiu read it in one breath.
The "rules" recorded in the "Inner Rule Book" are completely different from the "External Rules" style.
After carefully reading and understanding the "New Rules", Zheng Xiu suddenly realized.
Isn't this what they call "restrictions"?
The rules and restrictions of door path thaumaturgy are not fixed.
By following the established rules, one can continuously go deep into the doorway, open each door in the doorway, peek into the unknown world behind the door, and reach the end of the doorway.
"Restriction" is a method that can increase "magic" to varying degrees.
The greater the restriction, the more outrageous the "thaumaturgy" displayed by the thaumaturge.
And this new "challenge" seems to be a limitation.
No, in other words, this is the true face of "dice".
[The magic object Jiazi] appeared in front of Zheng Xiu in the form of a "dice", as if to say, "random, variable, uncertain, and elusive" is the real way to open this strange object.
The meaning of "Surprise Challenge" is that once the "Surprise Challenge" is turned on, each time a trick is used, its form and characteristics will be randomly matched. The matching result may not be the one chosen by Zheng Xiu, but no matter what the final matching thing is
, will be accompanied by a "huge" improvement.
Huge?
How big is it?
Just say as much as you want. Doesn't it vary from person to person?
This vague statement made Zheng Xiu feel a little doubtful.
Based on his distrust of the "Riddle Arm", Zheng Xiu had every reason to suspect that the concept of "a little bit" would be replaced by "a huge amount".
Squinting his eyes and staring at the [Li Rule Book] in front of him, Zheng Xiu did not open it rashly.
He got out of the dungeon first.
Others may say "working day and night" as a polite way of saying it, but for Zheng Xiu, he really is working day and night.
Over there I have to help Feng Bei ride a horse, and here I have to help the four girls practice.
When he walked out of the dungeon in a daze and exhaustion, his family members saw the master's demeanor and expressed sympathy and understanding.
Someone boiled a pot of hot tea and prepared water for bathing. While Zheng Xiu was waiting, he wandered in the yard.
Xiaofeng was completely forgotten in the Zheng family and became a member of the Zheng family.
Xiaofeng was originally a defective "soul-inducing lamp", and it was really unfair to let him go on a mission, so he should just be raised as a normal orange cat.
What makes Zheng Xiu amused is that every time he teases the orange cat, the orange cat reacts with surprise. The cat's head swings from side to side, and its panicked movements are as if it is blind and cannot see Master Zheng in front of it.
, which made Zheng Xiu find it extremely interesting.
Squatting next to the cat's nest, holding a piece of hay in his hand, he poked Xiaofeng's sensitive parts left and right, and the time passed by happily playing with the cat.
Finally, the orange cat screamed, jumped up the wall and disappeared.
As the saying goes, cats are different from dogs. Old dogs know their way around, while cats don’t care about their homes. Dogs urinate while running and go home smelling the smell of urine. However, some people keep cats and then disappear. But in Zhengzhou
Home, Zheng Xiu really isn’t worried. Once the orange cat is lost, someone will naturally find it for him. It’s just a matter of extra money.
Whistle after whistle conveyed news in Zheng's house, and the deep meaning hidden in the whistle made Zheng Xiu secretly blush.
"Master Zheng got up from the bed."
Qing Shisan came to the door not long after.
"Master, pick one?"
He smiled and held up a stack of notebooks, which contained pages of lists.
There are high-ranking officials and wealthy businessmen, ordinary people, and wanderers.
They are all people from around the imperial city.
There were even unscrupulous people who came all the way to stay at the Dali Temple outside the city, and their names would be added to the list the next day.
Under each list, the things they committed are recorded.
It ranges from murder and arson, corruption and bribery to petty theft, slander and adultery.
In fact, Zheng Xiu himself has made some minor problems. But Zheng Xiu is not a person with double standards. Isn't he squatting in the dungeon every day? So Zheng Xiu is definitely not a person with double standards and there is nothing wrong with him.
of.
Zheng Xiu yawned and flipped through the roster lazily.
"You have to pay attention to your health, sir. Nothing is too much, and you must not be too hasty." Qing Shisan hesitated for a moment, and decided to give a reminder as a person who has been through it.
"Go away, don't talk nonsense. Believe it or not, let them take you and experience the endless purgatory for two days. I think Ji Hongou and Pei Gaoya will be very happy to help!" Zheng Xiu laughed and scolded. After suppressing Qingpi's arrogance, he pointed at one person.
: "It's just him."
"Master, you are really good at choosing. You chose a foreigner. However, this guy is a little bit prickly."
Zheng Xiu asked: "It doesn't matter...ahem, I mean it doesn't matter. I promise to keep things secret. If the idea bothers me, I'll just replace him."
Qing Shisan's frivolous face straightened up: "How can you change it at will? Since it is a set rule, you must follow it honestly."
"That's right." Mr. Zheng nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Qingpi. Don't worry, I will add more money."
"It's not hard, it's not hard. Master, it's even harder."
Qing Shisan's serious face turned obscene again after just a few seconds, and he winked at Zheng Xiu, making the word "hard work" in his good-natured words a little more slutty.
"By the way, have you had any contact with the Shuzhou Yizhong County Chamber of Commerce recently?"
Qing Shisan said: "Yes, last month Si Youqing brought up half a year's dividends, and also brought some local specialties."
Zheng Xiu was silent, it was too late to contact Si Youqing now, so he decided to follow the original plan, and when he arrived at Yizhong County, the macho man would play myself, and that was it.
Thinking of this, Zheng Xiu took the time to take a shower and change clothes.
During this period, someone knocked on the door and said that he wanted to come in and serve the master to take a bath and undress. Zheng Xiu thought about it.
Think about it.
Thinking of Fengbei.
Finally, declined.
Within the city.
Scar Lao Liu was on duty in Wangtian Prison Camp when he heard the coachman's whistle.
Making an excuse to leave the prison camp, Scar Laoliu got into a car.
The driver walked through the streets and alleys, and finally emerged from an alley.
The Scar Laoliu in the car changed into another person, with a thin face and the scars at the corners of his eyes disappeared.
Another "Scar Laoliu" walked around the street, bought some cakes, and returned to the prison camp.
Scar Laoliu, who was walking around in circles with a thin face, came to Zheng's house, stretched out his hand to touch his chin, and tore off a human skin mask as thin as cicada wings. Scar Laoliu walked to the courtyard near Zheng Xiuxiu's house in a familiar way.
There is a secret door behind the rockery, which can be opened and leads directly to the ground.
The luxurious dungeon where Zheng Xiu and the four girls practice on weekdays is on the first floor. Only the master's room can be reached. The secret door behind the rockery leads to the negative two, negative three and other floors of the dungeon.
This is the legendary "Eternal Purgatory".
At night.
The night is as cool as water.
The wind blew loudly, and dark clouds came from outside, covering the bright moon.
Rong Si, known as "Rong Si Ye" by Taoists, was born in the southwest of the country, and made a living by stealing chickens and dogs.
In their line of work, there are many nicknames. Some are called "wall climbers", some are called "Liang Shangjunzi", some are called "three hands", but they prefer to call themselves and their colleagues... "stealers".
After Fourth Master Rong entered the industry, he set rules for himself: steal three times, don’t steal, and don’t kill. The last word “no killing” means not harming people’s lives. Otherwise, what’s the difference between that and a robber? Thieves also want face. But
Due to the pressure of life these years, Fourth Master Rong gradually forgot the original "three steals and three no-steals", leaving only one "no killing".
One day, while he was sleeping, he fell into a black pool. There was a road at the bottom of the pool and a door in front of the road.
That night, Fourth Master Rong saw the word "Stealing the Door".
Fourth Master Rong, who had a glimpse of the "stealing door" method, gradually became famous in the street and became prosperous.
He later discovered that it was the complicated rules in the early years that prevented him from seeing the door for a long time. Fourth Master Rong, who understood this, lamented that fate played tricks on people and his conscience misled him.
Six months ago, Fourth Master Rong made a mistake. When he broke into a rich man's home, he was discovered and killed the man out of desperation.
In order to destroy the corpse and eliminate traces of it, he gritted his teeth and set it on fire.
Just this fire cost Fourth Master Rong four lives.
Fourth Master Rong, who broke the rules, felt confused. He was supposed to have miraculous skills, but sometimes he was inexplicable. The brothers on the road knew that Fourth Master Rong was in trouble, and someone secretly reported him, making Fourth Master Rong wanted by the Yamen.
Fourth Master Rong had to hide his name, stay away from his hometown, travel northward, and change his identity.
No one knew him, Fourth Master Rong, when he arrived here. In a new place and a new beginning, he decided to become a thief again, become bigger and stronger, and create greater glory.
Last night he visited the city and found out the location of the richest man Zheng's house.
He even secretly jumped on the wall and found that there was not even a patrolling servant in the huge Zheng house. Such lax defense made Fourth Master Rong scoff. It turned out that the house of the richest man was nothing more than this.
Fourth Master Rong even defiantly plastered ashes in front of Zheng's house and made a mark to warn his colleagues to choose a day to take action.
In the lobby of Dali Temple, the fire is burning brightly and the room is as warm as spring.
Many homeless beggars and vagrants sleep here.
In a daze, a voice that sounded like crying and complaining sounded in Fourth Master Rong's ears, which made his hair stand on end.
"Rong Si, a native of Numazhou."
"Committing theft, robbery, murder, and arson."
"The crime is so heinous that it cannot be forgiven."
"Infinite Purgatory, the two envoys of soul arresting are here to demand their lives."
Fourth Master Rong stood up in excitement: "Who the hell is pretending?"
In the empty hall, Fourth Master Rong shouted loudly, which immediately woke up the other beggars. They cursed and threatened Fourth Master Rong before falling back to sleep.
Only I can hear the sound?
Fourth Master Rong was different from others. He had a glimpse of the door and naturally knew that thaumaturgy existed in the world.
The creepy voice was still ringing in his ears, like an evil whisper, but it was said exactly word for word, making Fourth Master Rong restless.
"I want to see who is causing trouble!"
Seeing that no one else in the hall responded, Fourth Master Rong knew that he had been plotted against. He sneered, touched the knife in his arms, wrapped himself tightly in his old cotton-padded jacket, and walked out of Dali Temple.
Outside Dali Temple, on both sides of the stone steps, the candles in the stone pillars were extinguished without wind, and two ghostly figures floated out from the side silently.
The two people seemed to have slipped out of the ground, walking without any movement. One was wearing a plain white paper coat, with a piece of white paper taped to his face, and his hands were pale and colorless. The other was wearing a plain black paper coat, with a piece of paper taped to his face.
There was a piece of black paper. Neither of them could see their faces clearly.
"The soul-binding envoy, Bai Wuchang."
"The soul-binding envoy is black and impermanent."
"Come and claim your life."
"Rong Si, you deserve to die."
"Eternal purgatory, waiting for the death penalty."
The whispers came from all directions. Fourth Master Rong covered his ears in pain, feeling a buzzing and pain in his ears, and a warm current dripping down his face. When he looked at his hands, they were actually covered in blood.
Fourth Master Rong was suddenly frightened, and he was horrified, knowing that even if the other party was not a ghost, he was coming with bad intentions. He jumped back, using his hands and feet, he clung to the wall like a gecko, and fled along the wall with a swish.
A long flute slipped from Hei Wuchang's sleeve, and a hollow flute sound came out. As soon as Fourth Master Rong escaped a few steps, he fell to the ground with a plop, making no sound.
I saw "Bai Wuchang" taking out a palm-sized little paper figure from his arms. The facial features of the paper figure were lifelike and somewhat similar to Fourth Master Rong.
The flute sound continued, and the paper figurine in "Bai Wuchang's" hand trembled suddenly, with a frightened expression on his facial features.
"Hee hee hee……"
"Hehehe..."
The black and white impermanence gave out a sinister smile and disappeared into the dark night in a blink of an eye.
Soon after, figures in black clothes and hoods emerged from the darkness, and one of them picked up the dead Fourth Master Rong.
Another person, with a slim figure in tight black clothes, walked to the Dali Temple and sprinkled powder inside.
"Then why bother? Just charm me and take her away."
This voice was clearly that of Ji Hongou, one of the three giants of the Brotherhood.
"It's not like you don't know the master's tune."
An unknown brother laughed.
"I know, I know, but I still feel weird. Besides, this person also got a glimpse of the door, and I don't know if it will be useful to the master." Ji Hongou was responsible for stunning everyone, and a brother quietly put Fourth Master Rong back to his place.
And he put another paper man who looked exactly like Fourth Master Rong into Fourth Master Rong's arms.
On the back of the paper man were written four ferocious words in blood: Infinite Purgatory.
