Startled, I took a step back, forgetting that I was standing on the altar.
I missed my step and fell heavily onto the ground.
It hurt so much on my back that I couldn't breathe. I used my hands to prop myself up from the ground.
I pulled at the beauty beside me and said, "This place is too strange. Did you see the statue just now? She cried. "
The beauty asked me, "Why are you crying?"
I gestured with all my might. "Tears are coming from my eyes. They're blood-red."
The beauty suddenly pointed at her face. "Is that so?"
I looked up and was scared out of my wits. I saw a stream of blood in the eyes of the beautiful woman. I wanted to escape, but this place has no doors or windows. Where can I escape to?
The beauty walked towards me step by step. She asked me in a faint voice, "Why do you think she cried?"
At this moment, I suddenly noticed that the face of the beauty had changed. She had completely changed into the appearance of a third royal aunt.
I nervously looked around. Other than the two of us, there was no one else in this Inside the house. I stammered, "Second aunt, can you not scare me? I know it's you. "
The beauty smiled and said, "I'm your second aunt, but I'm not your second aunt either. I am friends with her, so can't I borrow her body and have a few words with you? "
I trembled in fear. "third royal aunt?"
She nodded. "It's me."
I didn't know what to say. After a few seconds, I said, "Hello."
The third royal aunt said faintly: "Just now when you held the dagger, was it because you wanted to borrow my eye?"
I quickly hid the dagger.
third royal aunt asked again: "Are you trying to borrow my eyes?"
I forced myself to nod.
The third royal aunt said, "Since you have already obtained it, why don't you give it to me instead? With your eyes, you can see the world. "Hurry up and go."
I scratched my head and said hesitantly, "I borrowed your eyes. Miaowu won't dig out my eyes and give them back to you, right?"
third royal aunt said indifferently, "Since you've borrowed it, you will naturally have to return it. Isn't that justice? "
I said to the third royal aunt, "Then I won't be borrowing your eyes. I'll return it to you. "
When I fell off the altar, my hands had long since loosened and my eyes had rolled off to who knows where. I lowered my head and tried to look for it, but I couldn't find it.
At this moment, I turned my head and accidentally found that the statue was looking at me.
He looked up, his eyes bright. And his expression had changed, too, no longer that of flattery and malice. It turned into a smile of satisfaction and satisfaction.
I hastily walked towards the statue as I muttered to myself, "third royal aunt, please wait for me. I will return the eyesight to you immediately."
I don't know how my eyes managed to reach the statue, but this place is very strange, I don't want to pursue this matter, I just want to quickly send third royal aunt away.
By the time I reached the statue, however, its face had changed again, into one of anger, with a trace of fear in it.
My heart skipped a beat. "Is this statue alive?" Does he know what I'm going to do? "
Before I could make sense of it, the statue gave me a shove, and I fell backward and back to the ground.
But this time, I did not touch the ground after I fell. I turned my head to look, only to find that there was a bottomless abyss beneath me. When I looked up, I found that the statue and the third royal aunt were no longer clear.
Vaguely, I saw two heads popping out from the cliff and looking at me with interest. But soon, I couldn't even see my head, because I was completely at the bottom of the chasm.
With a bang, I fell to the ground. Then there was a sharp pain in my thigh, and I screamed in pain, but a hand shot out to cover my mouth, forcing my scream back down.
I opened my eyes in horror and found myself standing next to someone. This person was wearing cloth clothes, but there was a shiny blade in his hand.
I didn't know where he came from, so I didn't dare to move. I could only stare at him.
However, the man didn't pull out his blade and instead said softly, "Old Hu, do you want to live? You dare to doze off at this time? "
I grinned, not knowing what to say.
That person patted my shoulder again and said, "Fortunately, you were my companion this time. I was quick to save your life. Otherwise, you would have just waited for your head to move. When the sun rises, treat me to a drink. "
When I saw that his tone didn't sound like he was talking about evil spirits or devils, I felt a lot more relaxed. I whispered, "Friend, you are …"
The man knocked on my head, "I am your Little Zhang Ge, did you turn silly from your sleep?"
I puzzledly thought: "Little Zhang Ge? "What the hell is that?"
Little Zhang Ge and I exchanged a few words before he sneakily left. He didn't walk far. He stood about ten meters away from me. I looked at his posture, more and more curious, this person... He seemed to be standing guard.
I looked around and was immediately shocked, because I found myself standing amidst a group of waste grave.
There was a waste grave in the wilderness. This originally wasn't much, but on top of the grave, there was a person who was snoring loudly. The man was sleeping soundly, snoring evenly.
Just as I was about to sneak away, that person suddenly woke up. He jumped up from the grave and shouted towards the distance, "Mister Zou."
An old man with a beard jogged over. He bent down and walked up to the person on the grave. He kowtowed nine times and shouted, "Long live the man!"
I looked at the person on the grave in bewilderment. "This person is the Emperor? Which generation of emperors? Why did you sleep on the grave? "
The emperor sneered and said, "I have already slept for three days in the waste grave. Why haven't I seen a ghost? Is that Ghost God's idea of yours made up to coax me? "
Mister Zou shook his head and said, "His Majesty is a True Dragon. He is afraid of ghosts and doesn't dare to show himself."
The Emperor nodded his head and displayed an expression of interest. "Mister Zou, I heard you say that the souls of cultivators are extremely powerful. Do you dare to approach me with such a soul?"
Mr. Zou said, "I dare, cultivators definitely dare."
The emperor nodded. "Then I am relieved." He waved at me: "Old Hu, Old Hu."
It took me a moment to realize it was me, so I walked over to the Emperor. As I walked, I thought to myself: Isn't this so-called Emperor too casual with his words? It didn't look like a monarch, but more like a bandit. "Hmm …" It should be a Grass Head King. He took advantage of the chaos and dragged a group of people to call himself the emperor.
So where am I now? I recalled the scene just now. I was pushed by the statue and fell into the abyss. Am I still in the Eight Trigrams Formation?
I walked absent-mindedly all the way to the emperor's side. I saw that there were two obvious scars on his face, making him look very fierce.
The Emperor didn't say anything and directly pulled out the longblade at my waist. It was only now that I realized that I am the same as Little Zhang Ge, I have a blade on my waist.
The emperor raised his broadsword and without saying a word, chopped at Mister Zou's neck.
Puff! Mr. Zou's head was separated from his body, and the blood in his neck spouted out a few feet. I was dumbfounded.
Blood splattered all over the emperor's body. He was not the least bit worried. Holding his sword and still laughing, he picked up his head and said to Mister Zou, "Aren't you a cultivator? Where is your soul? "Come and see me."
The surroundings were completely silent. There was only a wave of cold wind blowing around. Where did the soul come from?
The emperor sighed, "Liar."
He casually threw away the head, then waved his hands towards me and Little Zhang Ge: "Go back."
Little Zhang Ge and I followed behind the Emperor. When we left the waste grave, I saw that there were thousands of soldiers outside.
The emperor entered the palanquin, while Little Zhang Ge and I followed.
Halfway there, the Emperor suddenly lifted the curtain and said to me, "Old Hu, you are the only one among us who has read a book. Tell me, is there a ghost?"
I was flabbergasted. "None of these tens of thousands of people have ever studied?"
So I said, "Well, you know, you know, There should be something like ghosts. "
The emperor sighed, "It should be, but why have I never seen it before? If a person becomes a ghost after death, then things will be much easier. When we arrive at the underworld, we will continue to claim the throne. But if there were no ghosts after death, that would be too bad. If I take down this mountain and wait for my death, then I won't have anything to do with myself anymore? "Damn, this mountain and river were simply rented."
I almost laughed.
"How many people have studied the elixir of life since time immemorial? But no one had lived this long. There had been a few people the other day who claimed to have survived from that time. I don't know who they're talking about, anyway. "
"The result was that I questioned them and found out that they were all counterfeits. Hmph hmph, do you think I'm that thick to fool? After a round of discussion, I told you the truth. "
Along the way, the emperor was nagging, but he didn't put on any airs. I answered absent-mindedly, thinking about how to get out of here.
After a short while, the procession stopped and I found myself in front of a palace. This palace wasn't that grand, but it was still pretty good.
Just as the emperor was about to enter the palace gates, seven people rushed out and stopped him on their knees.
The emperor frowned. "What are you doing?"
The seven people said, "Let's offer our immortal skills."
The Emperor smiled. "Interesting. Yesterday, someone offered the Peach of Immortality. Yesterday, someone offered the Longevity Technique. Today, someone said he can teach me how to see a ghost. You guys are quite bold to offer us your immortal skills. "
The seven men pointed to the coffin behind them and said, "We are telling the truth. We have the corpse of an immortal. "
