Deadly Forbidden Tomb - C97

Somehow, when the ancient sword moved, an indescribable fear emerged from the depths of my heart. It was the instinctive reaction of my body, as though I had met my natural enemy.

“If it wasn’t for the fact that you were useful to me, I really want to kill you with a single slash to save you from becoming a monster that will bring harm to living creatures!”

The handsome man patted the hilt, the trembling ancient sword finally stopped.

After that, he stretched out his hand and flung a blue talisman onto my face. In an instant, my entire body shuddered and I fainted.

When I woke up again, it was broad daylight, and I was lying on the sofa in a half-old, two-story building. After waking up, his first reaction was one of pain all over his body. His throat was extremely dry and thirsty, as if it was about to split open.

Just as he was about to sit up, he realized that his entire body was tied up by a black leather rope.

“You can still wake up. Seems like you’re quite lucky.”

Tu Cheng came to my side and said coldly, “Wood! What did I tell you before? You must not be angry and not drink blood, you have guts, you have even committed two taboos, not to mention expelling the Cadaveric Poison, you can’t even suppress the Cadaveric Poison now! ”

“You mean, I’m going to turn into a bloodthirsty monster like a corpse devil?”

“Have you forgotten what happened last night?”

Tu Cheng untied the leather rope on my body and said, “Last night was just your first taste of blood. Plus, the amount you absorbed was not much, so you haven’t really transformed. Once you eat enough blood and absorb the essence of the sun and moon, you will become a complete monster!”

Listening to Tu Cheng’s story, some of the cruel memories from the night before slowly flowed into his mind like a lost memory.

Thinking about last night’s bloody and ruthless scene, I couldn’t help but feel a little uneasy. A strong sense of lingering fear made me break out in a cold sweat.

“Wood, what happened last night? If it wasn’t for the corpse aura having broken the seal I left on you, I wouldn’t have been able to get here in time. ” Tu Cheng asked.

I trembled as I recounted what happened last night, still in a state of shock.

Finally, he added, “Last night, someone must have set me up. Otherwise, those people would not have forced me to my death!”

Tu Cheng raised his sharp eyebrows, then sneered: “Think about it carefully, who would do such a thing?”

Clutching my swollen head, I began to recall.

After a while, I shivered.

“Could it be …” Fat Gold Teeth? ” I looked at Tu Cheng in disbelief.

Tu Cheng nodded. “Who else but him? The taboos I told you about, you only mentioned them to them. Furthermore, those thugs from last night obviously wanted to force you into committing a taboo, and intentionally caused your Cadaveric Poison to lose all reason. It’s a pity that due to the lack of time, his strategy has too many loopholes. Anyone with the slightest bit of intelligence would be able to tell. ”

After a pause, Tu Cheng continued, “Although the Supreme Sects exist and die, the ones with true strength are the two brothers, one is good at exorcising ghosts and killing demons, and the other is good at escaping through strange doors. And the reason why your body suddenly lost control last night was none other than because Fat Gold Teeth was secretly playing tricks on you. He used one of the more advanced techniques in the Mysterious Gate Armor. First, he took the hair on your body, then he used special Fa Li to control your body for a short period of time. Finally, he properly laid a trap for you. ”

“Why? I have no enmity with him, so why would he want to harm me? ” I frowned.

“I don’t know the reason, but I’m sure that he wanted to have your Cadaveric Poison attack his heart so that he could achieve some sort of goal. I already warned you yesterday to be careful of the people around you. Some things will only cause you to fall into a crisis. ”

As he said that, Tu Cheng took out a protective talisman from my pocket. It was the one that Fat Gold Teeth gave me.

Tu Cheng pointed at the amulet. “Do you know what’s in it?”

After seeing me shake my head, Tu Cheng continued, “It contains the ashes of a dead woman. In other words, with this thing, there is a ghost at my side! To people with cultivation experience, this thing was still a treasure, but to people without cultivation experience, it was a disaster! “If my guess is not wrong, you have already seen the ghost lady inside. You are lucky that she hasn’t drained all of your yang energy.

“A female ghost?”

I was stunned and finally understood.

I finally understand the use of the protective talisman Fat Gold Teeth gave me that day. He didn’t plan to help me in the first place, he planned to harm me secretly instead!

When he gave me the amulet, he specifically told the man in the suit not to know. He said that the man in the suit coveted this treasure, but he didn’t expect that he was afraid that the man in the suit would see through his intentions.

No wonder a female ghost suddenly appeared in the hotel when they were sleeping that night. After all that time, it was all because of the amulet! After that, I left the hotel and came to this place. The ghost lady was still lingering around me. Before, it was very strange, but now, I finally understood the whole story.

How could she not follow me when I had her ashes with me?

The scoundrel who helped me that night must have seen through everything and warned me to be careful of the people around me.

I always thought that Fat Gold Teeth was better than the man in the suit, but I didn’t think that he would be more cunning than the man in the suit. Although the suited man had evil intentions, ever since I had truly attacked him, Fat Gold Teeth had secretly attacked me many times.

This smiling face tiger, when he laughs like Maitreya Buddha, I didn’t expect his scheming to be so deep, unknowingly I fell for his path!

If it wasn’t for the fact that Tu Cheng saved me at the critical moment, I’m afraid I wouldn’t even know how I died.

On top of being shocked, I was even more confused, because I didn’t understand, why did the Fat Gold Teeth want to harm me from the start?

Could it be that he is in cahoots with the mastermind of Ghost Village?

If that’s the case, then that wily fellow is really scary. I thought that I had gotten rid of his control, but in the end, I was still under his surveillance.

Thinking of this, I felt my scalp tingle.

You can’t protect yourself now, the Cadaveric Poison is out of control, it can erupt again at any time. Even I can’t save you, whether or not you can remain rational still depends on your willpower! Tu Cheng suddenly said.

I swallowed. “You mean I could be like last night any time now?”

“That’s right, and this situation will become more and more serious with the passage of time. Every time it flares up, your consciousness will be frantically devoured, and you will be eternally submerged within it. If you want to wake up, you have to rely on your own willpower. If your willpower is strong, you might still be able to wake up after one or two tries. But once you go crazy three times, the deities won’t be able to save you! ”

Tu Cheng said seriously: “This is already the limit of what I can do. You were lucky enough to escape a calamity this time. Next time you might not be able to wake up again.”

“Is there no other way?” I was desperate.

“There is indeed a way. Find a half jar and use its teeth and nails to grind them into powder. Using poison against poison can dispel the poison.” Tu Cheng said expressionlessly.

“How confident are you in dealing with the other half of the vat?” I have hopes.

Tu Cheng raised an eyebrow and said, “Roughly thirty percent!”

“Thirty percent? So low? ” I frowned.

“Don’t misunderstand me. What I said is 30% isn’t a 30% chance of winning, but a 30% chance of escaping!” Tu Cheng’s tone remained flat.

“What?”

These words scared me silly. I originally thought that even though thirty percent chance was not enough, but it was still worth a gamble. After all this time, it turned out to be a thirty percent chance to escape. Even a corpse refining expert like Tu Cheng only had a 30% chance of escaping, just how powerful was this half of a vat?

After a short period of shock, I couldn’t help but sigh dejectedly. “Forget it. Even you aren’t able to deal with that half jar. It seems that I have already died.”

Tu Cheng said: “Everything has a thread of hope, and we don’t need to fight against the half jar head-on. Don’t forget, the head of the half jar is still in the Chang’an Town, so as long as we can find the head of the half jar, we will be able to cure you of the poison!”

Hearing this, my eyes lit up.

That’s right! Why didn’t I think of that? Nails and teeth can be used as a guide, half a jar of nails growing on the body, I’m sure I won’t have a chance, but I can do some work on its head.

Although the half broken jar was powerful, its head was a dead object that had been struck by the Seal. Even if it had some Evil Qi, it would definitely not be able to create any big waves.

As long as I can find its head before it’s half filled with water, I’ll have hope, won’t I?

Right now, all we need to do is to hurry to the Chang’an Town and find the head of the half cylinder. Then, all problems can be easily solved.

I suddenly realised that all the clues and goals were pointed towards Chang’an Town.

Regardless of whether I am willing or not, I have to go to Chang’an Town, and I have to hurry there even if I want to!
