Probably because Hang Shiqi's indifference exceeded expectations, Priest Cocoon was choked into silence for a few seconds. However, he quickly adjusted and put on a false smile again: "You are not Cocoon. You have never experienced such a life. Maybe you can't
Understand our feelings. I don’t blame you.”
Hang Shiqi twitched his lips perfunctorily: You can’t blame me.
Cocoon Priest: "But I hope you can help us."
Hang Shiqi raised his eyebrows: Let’s get to the point.
"How do you think Ao Wu treats you?" Priest Cocoon Rat changed the topic and asked Hang Shiqi an irrelevant question.
Hang Shiqi blinked, not quite understanding why the topic suddenly took a sharp turn, but he could do this question, so he must say that the relationship was not good at this time, otherwise what would happen if the other party used him to blackmail Ao Wu?
So Hang Shiqi started to talk half-truth and half-falsely: "What else can I do? You saw it too. He knew that I was a cocoon beast at the Seven Kings Conference, so he handed me over to the care of the Seven Kings without hesitation.
The next time Cocoon Rat went to the north to assassinate him, this bastard pushed me out as bait and didn't care about my life or death. To put it bluntly, I was just a shield for him."
"A shield?" Priest Cocoon Mouse was dubious: "Really? I heard that he is extremely indulgent and doting on you, and even breaks his principles for you time and time again."
"Pretending." Hang Shiqi waved his hand and said: "He pretends to be doting and pampering me on the outside, but in fact, he doesn't like me at all. He doesn't like anyone at all. He is just an emotionless work machine. You know
What did he say to me when he gave me the wolf fang?"
"How do you say that?" Priest Priest Cocoon narrowed his eyes.
Hang Shiqi imitated Ao Wu's cold tone and said: "Take it, or die."
This tone of voice was perfectly imitated, and the things Hang Qi said before were true. Priest Priest Cocoon couldn't help but wonder, could it be that Ao Wu was really not nice to Hang Qi in private? Their love was just pretending.
"Since he treats you badly, why do you disobey my order and force yourself to stay with him?"
Hang Shiqi: "It's not bad. If I stay with Ao Wu, at least I can eat and drink for free every day. I don't have to risk my life to do tasks, and I won't be used as a puppet at any time, and my body will be snatched away, my memory will be erased, and I will be whipped."
Soul. So following him is better than following you, right?"
The Cocoon Priest leaned forward slightly and looked into Hang Shiqi's eyes: "Then if I can give you a better life and promise you that I will never treat you as a puppet again, will you be willing to come back and help me?"
"A better life?" Hang Shiqi tilted his head and looked at the Cocoon Priest: "What a good life?"
Priest of the Cocoon Rat: "When the seven royal families are destroyed, the Cocoon Rat will be the new ruler of this continent. You will be my best creation, and I will bestow upon you the supreme glory and let you be forever recorded in history as the best first-generation Cocoon Orc."
, becoming a symbol of the opening era of the Cocoon Orcs.”
... After talking for a long time, there was not even a chicken drumstick. Hang Shiqi complained in his heart, even if I don't like Ao Wu, I can't turn to you.
"In addition, I will also give you eternal life." Seeing Hang Shiqi's indifference, Priest Cocoon Rat threw out another more tempting bargaining chip.
"You have met Shuran, my little junior brother, you should understand what I mean."
Shuran, of course Hang Shiqi remembers that it is said that the vest monster can be resurrected indefinitely, Shujin's junior uncle, the first one on Shuangyu's revenge list.
However, regarding the matter of resurrection, Shu Ran spoke vaguely at the time, and he did not understand it very well: "Living like Shu Ran, constantly changing bodies? Is that really feasible? You don't want me to be a test subject, right?
If it’s okay, you’re already old, why don’t you change your body into a younger one first?”
Listening to Hang Shiqi's question, Priest Cocoon Rat was not angry but happy, thinking that he must have been tempted. After all, who can refuse the temptation of eternal life: "I don't want to change my body, but it's not time yet. Don't worry, I won't lie to you. You
If you don’t believe it, I can take you to see it with your own eyes.”
"That's good." Hang Shiqi was really curious. If Shuran could really help people change their bodies at will and extend their lives, where would those bodies come from?
The Cocoon Priest really took him to see Shu Ran. They left the underground palace and flew all the way to the top of another mountain on a manned ferry.
The mountain is very high, and there is still some snow on the top. The dory landed in front of a tree hole accurately. The cocoon priest took Hang Shiqi and walked in.
The cave was wet and cold, but Hang Shiqi, who had adapted to the northern climate, could withstand it. The cocoon priest had already put on the fur cloak that his subordinates handed him.
"The others are waiting outside. Shuxiu, Shunian will follow." Priest Cocoon Mouse ordered his subordinates.
Enter the cave and go all the way down, bypassing the winding rocky road, and finally enter a cold and open cave.
Rows of huge round cocoon shells are hung neatly in the ice chamber.
A pretty and lovely girl stood in the innermost part of the cave. When she saw the two of them, she sweetly called "Senior Brother" to the cocoon priest, and then smiled at Hang Shiqi familiarly: "It's you
ah."
"Are you Shuran?" Hang Shiqi said in surprise.
"That's right." The girl jumped and spun around in circles: "Do I look good like this? How does it compare to my previous body?"
"Uh..." Hang Shiqi felt that in terms of appearance alone, the boy and the girl were about the same age, but when he thought about the fact that there was a man about the same age as the wrinkled cocoon rat priest next to him living in this shell, Hang Shiqi
I just feel it’s indescribably strange.
"Isn't your body like a cocoon rat?" After looking for a while, Hang Shiqi found something inconsistent. In Shuran's body, the ears were not the gray round ears of the cocoon rat, but white pointed ears, and the tail was not like that.
The seed is thin and long, but is a small round white ball.
"It's... Medicine Rabbit!" Hang Shiqi remembered. He had seen this kind of orc before in Yuehua City: "You are Medicine Rabbit!"
"That's right." Shuran poked her round cheeks with her fingertips: "This is also a benefit of rebirth. You can choose the race you want to be in the future. Our bloodline is no longer destined by God, but we can choose it ourselves. It's great, right?
?You look up and see that these cocoons on your head are all containers carefully selected by me. Excellent racial blood, beautiful appearance, and excellent physique."
Shuran excitedly introduced to Hang Shiqi, her tone was like a beauty-loving girl showing off her wardrobe.
You can't see what's going on inside through the cocoon, but there is a tag on the outside of each cocoon that says the age, gender, and race of the orc in the cocoon. This is different from the previous cocoon orc. They were also raised in a cocoon, but when they hatched, they
The age, gender, and race are all unknown.
Like opening a blind box.
Hang Shiqi looked around and asked: "Is there no frost wolf?"
"Currently, there are no seven royal families." Shuran's eyes flashed with greed, biting her finger and said, "I really want to try it, what does the body of a top-blooded orc look like. But it should be soon, sooner or later there will be one."
Hang Shiqi asked: "So how did you get these bodies?"
"Secret." Shuran stuck out his tongue at Hang Qiqi: "I won't tell you!"
"Forget it." Hang Shiqi turned around and walked out: "I don't want to carry a life on my back forever, I'm afraid of nightmares."
Shu Ran was stunned. She didn't expect that someone would give up the chance of eternal life and leave immediately. She looked at the cocoon priest with some confusion: "Senior brother, I..."
The Cocoon Priest made a silencing gesture towards Shuran.
"You two take Hang Shiqi out first and wait for me at the exit of the cave." Priest Priest Cocoon Rat gave instructions to Shuxiu and Shunian. After the three left the cave, he asked Shuran: "How is the recent experiment?"
"It's not very stable when changing the body. Of the ten people on the Cocoon Rat side, five succeeded, and none of the Cocoon Orcs succeeded." Shuran tugged at her braids in distress: "The souls of the Cocoon Orcs are too fragile, even those of the Cocoon Orcs.
And the ability to think is not good either. It’s just Chapter 17 of Hangzhou. It should be possible, no, it must be possible, I’m sure of it! Senior brother..."
Priest Cocoon Rat could hear Shuran's thoughts. He eagerly wanted to change Hang Qi's body to prove that his idea was correct. But Priest Cocoon Rat rejected him without hesitation: "Hang Qi, you can't move now, he
This body will still be of great use if you keep it for now. You can study it with peace of mind, and just tell your senior brother what you need."
"I understand, senior brother." Although Shuran was a little reluctant, she still nodded obediently.
The Cocoon Priest smiled with satisfaction, turned and left.
Hang Shiqi followed him and flew back to the underground palace.
"You don't want to change your body or live forever?" After returning to the underground palace, the Cocoon Priest asked him.
"You don't call this eternal life, you call it robbing other people's life span." Hang Shiqi said.
"Why, at this time, you sympathize with the orcs who were robbed of their bodies. Do you think we have gone too far?" Priest Priest of the Cocoon Mouse sneered: "When people in this world bully us, abuse us, and make us unable to live or die,
But no one sympathizes. The law of the jungle is a reality. We used to be weak and were bullied, but now we finally have a way to become stronger. No matter what the means, it is the strong who sets the rules of the game in this world."
"I don't sympathize with you, nor do I sympathize with the victims. You are right. In this world, the jungle eats the strong, and death happens at any time. I don't have that much sympathy. I don't know A, B, C, and D. But that doesn't mean I agree with those who do evil.
Behavior, what you want to do is your business, I will not participate. I can't live by killing people." Hang Shiqi refused.
"Then I'm afraid it's not up to you." The Priest of the Cocoon Rat controlled Hang Shiqi's hands and feet: "Hang Shiqi, I wanted to use gentle methods to make you take the initiative to obey, but you refused, so I have other ways to do it.
Deal with you. Someone comes!"
Several cocoon orcs stepped forward and grabbed Hang Shiqi.
Hang Shiqi raised his lips provocatively: "Are you going to be your marionette? Then be careful not to stretch the string too long, otherwise it will break easily."
"Press him to the temple." This time, Priest Cocoon Rat ignored Hang Shiqi's provocation. Hang Shiqi was right, he was too difficult to control. Even if Priest Cocoon Rat operated it himself, he was in danger of losing control at any time.
That's why he tried every means to convince Hang Shiqi to surrender to him.
But it's not like he doesn't have other tougher methods.
The temple is the stone chamber in Hang Shiqi's memory. It is located on the bottom floor of the underground palace, with an altar made of spar in the middle. He was once tied here because he was too disobedient, and then listened to strange spells, which made his soul hurt as if he was being tortured.
Stabbed with knives, roasted by fire, smashed to pieces by hammers.
Hang Shiqi could not move his hands and feet. He was carried by the cocoon orcs and tied to the middle of the altar. His hands and feet were trembling with fear. He already had a rough idea of what he was going to face.
"Although it is a pity, but for you now, soul washing is probably the safest way." Priest Cocoon shook his head and stood in front of him: "I used to be too soft-hearted and was always afraid of destroying your soul. I only washed half of it every time.
I stopped, but this time I will completely cleanse your soul and erase your memory. It doesn't matter, you won't become a fool. I know that your soul has been completely restored. It is so strong that even I have to spend a lot of time.
It takes some strength to control it, and it shouldn't be a problem to withstand the pain of soul washing."
Hang Shiqi glared at the Cocoon Priest. He had a piece of soft cloth stuffed in his mouth and couldn't speak. This was to prevent him from biting his tongue and committing suicide due to the severe pain.
"When you wake up, you will forget everything that happened before and become my most obedient chess piece again. Don't worry, I will teach you well this time. You will not have another chance to disobey me or betray me."
The sound of a spell sounded, and familiar pain surrounded Hang Shiqi. Hang Shiqi's fingertips scratched unconsciously in the air, and his wrists were tied with ropes. They struggled so hard that they were dripping with blood.
"Uh-huh!" Hang Shiqi groaned in pain unconsciously, raising his head vigorously, veins appeared on his neck, and physiological tears kept falling down the corners of his eyes.
But the pain did not last long, even much shorter than when he was punished before. A warm force enveloped his soul, and the pain gradually faded away, as if he was wrapped in layers of soft feathers.
The Cocoon Priest closed his eyes and concentrated on reciting the incantation, and did not notice anything unusual about Hang Shiqi.
After a long time, the soul cleansing was over.
The Cocoon Mouse Priest opened his eyes and looked into Hang Shiqi's pair of mist-filled eyes. He asked warmly: "What do you think of my child?"
Hang Shiqi blinked his ice-blue eyes, stared at the cocoon priest and asked, "Who are you?"
The cocoon priest ordered someone to untie the rope for him and said to him: "I am your teacher, my son. You are sick, so you have forgotten some things, but it doesn't matter, the teacher will tell you."
"Okay," Hang Shiqi nodded and said, "Teacher, I'm hungry, do you have anything to eat?"
"What do you want to eat?" asked the Cocoon Priest.
"Chicken legs!" Hang Shiqi replied without hesitation.
"Send him back to his room to rest first," the Cocoon Priest ordered to the Cocoon Orc next to him.
"Who are they?" Hang Shiqi looked at the cocoon orcs beside him with some vigilance.
Cocoon Priest: "They are just some servants, don't worry about it. You rest for a while, I will send them the food."
"Good teacher." Hang Shiqi then obediently let the Cocoon Orc lead him away.
Hang Qi and the Cocoon Priest passed by each other and walked towards the stone room. With their backs to Hang Qi, the Cocoon Priest finally showed a smile of success.
And where he couldn't see, Hang Shiqi's eyes suddenly regained their vitality.:,,,
