Chapter 233 Confusing the real with the fake, concealing the truth (two chapters in one)
Inside the ice coffin was a man wearing linen clothes.
This man has a pair of strange eyes that resemble compound eyes, a deep facial contour, and a vertical fine line on his forehead.
At first glance he looks like a man, but the more he looks at him, the less human he looks.
The key is that Luo Ning knows this weird man!
It is precisely in Lu Pianpian's memory in the future that the strange man who foreshadowed the end of the world for several days and nights in Chang'an Palace.
Luo Ning clearly remembered that it was this man in mourning clothes who stood above the Chang'an Palace and said with bleeding eyes:
"The world will perish...the world will perish..."
At that time, as King Wucheng, I, the emperor, and the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, a large group of powerful men, could not do anything to this filial man.
He is like a nightmare shadow that cannot be eliminated, stubbornly repeating terrible prophecies, making the whole world sink into boundless terror.
At this moment, Luo Ning actually found this filial man in the ice coffin.
Moreover, this filial man made him feel strangely familiar.
It was as if I had seen it somewhere, and not in Lu Pianpian's memory images in the future.
It seems that I have seen it earlier!
This is a heart-stopping, indescribably familiar feeling.
What made Luo Ning even more horrified was that the filial man's enchanting and enchanting pair of compound eyes were staring straight at him!
His eyes held an indescribable magic power, seeming to suck his soul in, and seeming to see through all his secrets.
Just this pair of compound-eye-like eyes was enough to give Luo Ning nightmares for ten years.
He's awake?!
Even though Luo Ning was cowardly, under the direct gaze of these eyes, he couldn't help but feel weak all over and wished he could disappear immediately.
This was a horror that suffocated him!
Luo Ning was about to muster up the courage to escape when he suddenly realized that although the strange compound eyes were staring straight at him, there was no change.
Rather than staring at yourself, it's better to stare at everything around you.
Not awake?
Only then did Luo Ning realize that the strange man in the coffin didn't seem to wake up.
He remains silent.
His linen filial piety dress seems to be a very high-level binding magic weapon. It seems to be sealing his power. It is not as simple as a piece of clothing.
This awesome mourning dress must have been put on by the person who imprisoned him.
"No, it's not mourning clothes, it should be prison clothes!"
Only then did Luo Ning discover that the linen garment with the magical power of restraint was actually not a mourning garment, but a prison garment.
It's just because the color is similar that it looks like a filial piety dress.
Fortunately, this weirdo didn't wake up.
Luo Ning breathed a sigh of relief, and unknowingly broke into a cold sweat.
He looked at the huge Liangzhou Cauldron again and couldn't help gritting his teeth.
It is like a man who is greedy for money sees a mountain of gold that cannot be moved.
Jiuding is the magic weapon of king's fortune and also the artifact that carries the power of wishes.
Even if there is only one ancient cauldron, his ability to collect wishes and luck will increase several times.
With Jiuding, he doesn't need to unify the world. As long as he gets Yizhou, he can fully afford the Yin Yang Ling Dao Pearl and fully unleash the power of the Ling Dao Pearl.
In the words of Lu Pianpian in the future, by collecting Jiuding, he will be able to attain enlightenment in the world of mortals!
Jiuding is simply an indispensable treasure for the owner of Lingdaozhu.
However, I dare not take away the Liangzhou Cauldron now!
The Liangzhou Cauldron may be of little use to Mo Xuezong and Master Xuezhen themselves.
But it is obvious that the Liangzhou Cauldron was used to suppress the weirdo in the coffin.
If the Liangzhou Cauldron is taken away, the strange prisoner in the coffin should wake up immediately!
This is a strange character who seems to have some connection with the end of the world, and his origin is unknown. You cannot be too careful.
Even if Luo Ning wanted the Liangzhou Cauldron, he would not dare to take it away.
Who knows what will happen once this person wakes up and breaks out of the coffin.
"Forget it." Luo Ning took a deep breath and decided to give up for now.
The Liangzhou tripod cannot be touched.
He cannot ignore the safety of the world for the sake of his own selfish interests.
He cannot bear this responsibility.
Luo Ning took a deep look at Liangzhou Ding, swallowed weakly, turned around and walked out.
The moment he turned around, Luo Ning felt a pair of eyes behind him staring at him.
I don't know if it's an illusion.
In an instant, Luo Ning suddenly felt that the man should be awake after all!
Is he just pretending not to wake up? Or, he just mistakenly thinks he is not awake?
Thinking of this, Luo Ning became even more terrified and walked out faster.
Luo Ning could only take seven steps, when suddenly a faint sigh came from behind.
The sudden sigh from behind made all the hairs on Luo Ning's body explode.
He was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and his whole body almost jumped.
Luo Ning's heart seemed to beat out of his chest. He looked back in horror, his pupils contracted and his blood froze.
I saw that weird man with a pair of compound eyes actually sat up, pressed his hands against the inner wall of the ice coffin, and looked at himself with a half-smile.
At first glance, his face seems somewhat handsome.
But in his strange eyes, there was a faint red blood flowing, and it seemed that it would turn into blood and tears at any time.
When he moved, the gray-white prison uniform on his body seemed to come to life, clinging tightly to his body, entangled with his body like a snake.
At the same time, the Liangzhou tripod also buzzed, emitting the ancient vicissitudes of royal power.
The weirdo immediately showed a hint of anger. Just a hint of anger, as if the whole world would be burned by anger.
Obviously, Liangzhou Ding, Prison Clothes, and Ice Coffin are jointly banning the power of weirdos.
"Senior, you..." Luo Ning trembled and took two steps back.
The weirdo stretched out in the ice coffin, stretched out his slender fingers, touched the vertical lines on his forehead, and said quietly:
"You want this tripod, why don't you take it? You can take it."
"take it."
"Yes. Thank you, senior." Luo Ning smiled and walked involuntarily towards the huge ice coffin and the Liangzhou Cauldron, with deep longing in his eyes.
But as soon as he took a few steps, an extremely cool thought came from Ling Daozhu.
Under Ling Daozhu's cool Taoist rhyme, Luo Ning felt as if the mountain breeze was blowing over the entire spiritual platform, his heart was bright, and he suddenly came back to his senses.
so close!
Luo Ning's eyes became as clear as water again.
"Eh...it's a bit enlightening." The compound-eyed weirdo suddenly smiled, his smile was indescribably sinister, evil, and paradoxical.
"Little thing, you are very lucky. I can't see your origins."
"After so many years, I finally saw a man, God's will, God's will."
His voice was like an ancient wind blowing through a bamboo forest that had withered for thousands of years, without any life in it.
Luo Ning paused and calmed down.
There is a Liangzhou tripod, an ice coffin, and prison clothes. I'm so scared!
No matter how powerful or weird this person is, he is still in the trap at this time. What should I be afraid of?
The angel not far away suddenly appeared beside him like lightning.
When the immortal envoy appeared, Luo Ning became more courageous.
The strange man in the coffin looked at the immortal envoy, and his emotions finally showed in his strange compound eyes.
"Are you from the Ji family? Hey, I didn't expect that I could see little things from the Ji family here."
"Well, the real soul is gone, it's a pity."
He suddenly stuck out his bright red tongue and licked his lips.
The immortal emissary remained motionless, as if he did not hear the strange man's words.
"Who are you?" Luo Ning asked coldly, "What do you want to do?"
The weirdo's compound eyes looked at Luo Ning with an evil look, "Little one, don't dare to be rude to me just because you have some background. In the Three Realms and within the Five Elements, there are many people who have failed in the calamity and will perish forever."
"Even if you have some background, it's still a long time before you can survive the catastrophe and be reborn. You should be more polite to me. Do you understand?"
Luo Ning cupped his fists and saluted, "Okay, please forgive me for being rude. May I ask your senior's name?"
The weirdo said quietly: "You don't need to know my name. I just ask you, do you want this tripod? If you want it, you can take it."
Luo Ning shook his head: "If I take away the Liangzhou Cauldron, I won't be able to explain it to Mo Xuezong."
In fact, it is certainly not difficult to explain to Mo Xuezong.
"It's easy to handle." The weirdo said, "You can take this tripod and don't have to worry about Mo Xuezong. I'll just send it away for you."
Dismissed... these three words were said lightly, but Luo Ning could tell that it meant destroying the Mo Xuezong.
Obviously, after this weirdo escaped from trouble, the first thing he did was to massacre Mo Xuezong.
Xue Zhenren and others must not have expected that the weirdo woke up at this moment.
"I really want Liangzhou Ding." Luo Ning is also a bachelor and does not deny his intention.
"But I have my own sense of propriety. If I take away the Liangzhou Cauldron, my senior will surely be able to get out of trouble, right?"
"A small person like this junior cannot afford such a big relationship."
"Pedantry." The weirdo sneered, "I have already sensed that this tripod is destined to you, and it will definitely become your companion treasure. If God does not take it, you will be blamed for it."
"You take this cauldron and you and I each get what we want, isn't it wonderful? Why wouldn't you do it? As for the rest, why do you care so much about it?"
"Sorry, I can't help you!" Luo Ning was unmoved and turned around to leave.
"Wait a minute!" the weirdo said quickly, "I'm telling you, in a few decades, the world will come to an end and everyone will die."
"Only when you collect all the ancient cauldrons can you escape and ascend to heaven. Are you sure you want to give up on this cauldron?"
Luo Ning walked out without looking back, "I know all this, but I won't let you out."
Seeing that Luo Ning was about to leave the underground palace, the weirdo finally became anxious, "Wait! We can make a deal! You will definitely be interested!"
Luo Ning's steps still stopped.
The young man looked back at the weird man who was no longer calm in the ice coffin and said with a smile:
"What kind of deal do you want to do, senior? Just tell me. It doesn't hurt for junior to listen."
If one could obtain the Liangzhou Cauldron in a safe way, it would certainly be a rare thing.
The strange man said: "You are so cunning and treacherous, you must have some background. That's all, I will make a good relationship with you."
"Let's do this. I swear not to leave this ice coffin, not to attack Mo Xuezong, not to interfere in the affairs of this world... Is this okay?"
"I can swear a blood oath with my soul, and you can completely believe it."
Luo Ning didn't believe it at first, but Ling Daozhu actually sensed that the other party had no intention of lying and acting.
Ling Daozhu is absolutely unmistakable.
Then, the other party should not lie to him.
"Senior, continue." Luo Ning smiled, "Junior is a little interested. It's just that he doesn't quite understand it yet."
The weirdo explained: "Yes, my way is related to karma, and I am born to be restrained by magic weapons such as Jiuding and other worldly wishes, but..."
"This tripod can restrain me for at most twenty years. Because its will power is about to be exhausted."
"The end of the world is coming, and luck has declined. There is no luck to support Jiuding. It is destined that Jiuding will transform into the mortal world."
"Even if you don't take it away, it can only restrain me for twenty years at most. If not, I won't wake up so easily."
"It's just that I escaped from trouble twenty years early, but I was able to recover one percent of my mana, and I was able to leave this world and regain my freedom."
Luo Ning asked: "Didn't you promise not to leave this ice coffin? Then why do you still want to escape?"
The weird man's compound eyes were filled with blood, "You don't understand. The suppression of this cauldron here is not to restrain me, but to resolve my karma and magical power."
"As long as this cauldron is around, my strength will never be restored. It's not that this cauldron is restricting my freedom."
"What really restricts my freedom is this coffin and prison clothes."
Luo Ning understood.
Ling Daozhu did not realize that the other party was lying.
It turns out that the ancient tripod cannot restrict his freedom, it is only dissolving his power, making it impossible for him to recover.
"As long as you take away the ancient tripod, even if I don't leave the ice coffin, my strength will slowly recover. As long as one percent of my mana is restored, I can return to the fairy world."
"When the time comes, I can take you away with me as a reward for you."
Luo Ning used the Ling Daozhu to sense that this person was not lying.
If he wants to win his trust, he must make a blood oath, so he might as well not lie to himself.
This is a smart person.
Luo Ning thought for a moment, "But, even if I believe you, if I take away the Liangzhou Cauldron, the sect will also discover it. How should I explain it?"
"It's easy." The weirdo said, "I can forge a fake Liangzhou tripod."
After saying that, the vertical mark on his forehead suddenly opened, and the bloody light was terrifying. It turned out to be a vertical eye!
"Yin and yang are paired, chaos is divided into two parts, and the urgency is like a law..." The vertical eyes between the weirdo's brows are filled with rhymes, exuding a rich charm of the Five Elements.
At the same time, the weirdo's slender fingers also made a series of hand gestures.
Soon, an identical giant cauldron appeared in front of Luo Ning.
The Taoist aura is actually the same as that of Liangzhou Ding.
A weirdo actually made a fake copy of the Liangzhou tripod!
"What kind of magical power is this?" Luo Ning was stunned.
His Lingdao magical power can bring a certain character to life, which can be regarded as a character reappearance. And this weirdo's magical power can actually be copied!
Moreover, the copied Liangzhou tripod looks exactly the same, with no difference.
If it weren't for the power of Ling Daozhu's induction, Luo Ning wouldn't be able to distinguish between true and false!
The weirdo copied the Liangzhou Cauldron, and his aura was much weaker, obviously he had consumed a lot of it.
"Okay, you can replace the real with the fake, and you can completely get away with it."
"This transaction is definitely a win-win situation."
"Once you get the first tripod, it will be easier to find the second tripod."
The weirdo was straightforward. After he finished speaking, he directly swore a blood oath:
"... Within twenty years, or before Mo Xuezong leaves, I swear not to leave this ice coffin..."
"...I will not take action against the Mo Xuezong here, nor will I interfere with this world and contaminate cause and effect..."
"Okay! Deal!" Luo Ning said, "I'll take the Liangzhou Cauldron and you can recover your mana."
Luo Ning is a gambler of fate and has always been very courageous. Now that he has reached this point, of course he dares to take a gamble.
He knew that the weirdo must have a big background, his true cultivation must be terrifying, and he must even be a huge evil person.
However, he still gambled.
After the weirdo finished swearing, Luo Ning used Zhang Tianshi's teleportation method to send the Liangzhou Ding into his ring.
Then, the fake Liangzhou tripod was placed in its original position.
Replacement of true and false!
Without the Lingdao Bead, it would be difficult to see the flaw. The weirdo's magical power of copying is really amazing.
Once the real Liangzhou Ding was taken away, the weirdo finally began to restore his cultivation.
It's like the bleeding hole is blocked.
"Okay. I'm going to pretend to be asleep, and you can go." The weirdo said, lying down again.
"Don't worry, I need time to slowly recover my cultivation. I don't have the energy to go out and make trouble. I have no interest in this world at all."
After saying that, he stopped talking.
Luo Ning took the Liangzhou tripod, left the underground palace with the immortal envoy, and returned along the original road.
Along the way, Luo Ning almost sang happily.
Ha ha ha ha.
Finally got the Liangzhou Cauldron.
That weirdo is really weird. He actually made a deal that was fake and real.
Regardless of whether he was making a deal with the devil or not, he still obtained the Liangzhou Cauldron in the safest way.
When he returns to Longcuo City, he will study it carefully!
As soon as Luo Ning returned to the ground with the immortal envoy, Master Xue, Master Zhuo and others immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"Senior brother!" Lan Ze quickly waved.
"Master, I finally brought the Immortal Envoy out." Luo Ning said, "The Immortal Envoy was destroyed everywhere inside, but fortunately it can be restored..."
Before he finished speaking, Master Xue, Master Zhuo and others all fled to the bottom of the peak.
"Whizzing…"
Master Xue and others escaped to the bottom of the peak and soon arrived at the mysterious underground palace.
After seeing the intact underground palace and the Liangzhou tripod being suppressed on the ice coffin, while the people in the ice coffin were motionless, everyone finally felt relieved.
fine.
"It's okay, let's go!" Xuezhen said: "We can be free from the problem for another twenty years at most."
As soon as Xuezhenren and others left, the weirdo immediately sat up.
The strange compound eyes glowed with blood, "Twenty years...when I return to the fairyland..."
PS: I got the Liangzhou Cauldron like this, I believe no one has guessed. What is the origin of the compound-eyed weirdo? You can guess. Good night, Crab!
