Deadly Forbidden Tomb - C98
All of this drove me to go to the Chang’an Town to investigate everything.
This mysterious place caused me to be filled with anticipation, but at the same time, I felt extremely perturbed, because my life was hanging within the Chang’an Town.
Although I have already decided to go to the Chang’an Town, the problem is with my current ability, I can still deal with ordinary people, but what if I run into something strong? It would be difficult to achieve his goals by himself.
Fat Gold Teeth definitely can’t hope for that, and the suited man and he are disciples of the same sect, I can’t figure out the relationship between the two of them. Fat Gold Teeth harmed me, I don’t know if he has any intentions.
So for safety’s sake, I can’t trust the man in the suit either.
And since Xiao Yun is nowhere to be found, it’s even less likely that she can’t help me. The only person I know who can help me right now is probably Tu Cheng.
Even though Tu Cheng was cold and fierce, he showed it on the surface. If anyone said anything, they would immediately attack, which was especially straightforward. Compared to the smiling Fat Gold Teeth, who was secretly stabbing others in the face, he was much stronger.
At the very least, she wouldn’t have to worry about being cheated when interacting with him. With his personality, he could’ve just cut me in half if he wanted me to.
There were indeed candidates, but it was unknown if Tu Cheng was willing to go to Chang’an Town.
After all, this trip was extremely dangerous, and he might have to go head to head with the other half of the tank. That fiendish monster was truly not something that many people could withstand.
When I brazenly made my request, Tu Cheng said very straightforwardly, “We can go to Chang’an Town, but you have to pay for it.”
“How much?” I asked.
Tu Cheng said coldly, “I also don’t ask for much. Just give me twenty to thirty thousand gold coins!”
I bitterly smiled. “Can it be cheaper? I really don’t have that much money.”
Tu Cheng continued, “If you don’t have money, you can sell your blood. Give me a bowl of blood a week, and I’ll let you have it until the end.”
“Selling blood?”
“What do you want my blood for?”
“You don’t have to worry about that. You just have to agree to it or not. If you agree, I’ll help you. If not, we can talk.”
Tu Cheng coldly said, “You don’t have to worry, your body is much stronger than ordinary people. Even normal cultivators, who don’t have any special cultivation methods to strengthen their physique, aren’t a match for you, so a bowl of blood a week is nothing to you.”
After hearing what Tu Cheng had to say, I could only smile bitterly and nod my head in agreement.
I could either pay for it or sell it for blood. The problem was that I couldn’t afford it, so I could only sell my blood to repay the debt.
Now I can only pray that the bowl in Tu Cheng’s mouth is a small rice bowl, not one of those big soup bowls. Or else, just to get that bowl of blood, I’d probably have to burp.
Seeing that I agreed, Tu Cheng threw me three tokens.
There were three tokens made of peach wood. They were about a foot long and two fingers wide. They looked a bit like awls. Their heads were thin and the tip was as sharp as a knife.
On the front of the order badge, there were three big words written on it: General’s Mandate!
On the back of the arrow was a strange symbol, it looked like something drawn by a Talisman Paper, but it was even more complicated. In the middle of the two sides of the symbol, there was even a word ‘Yue’ written on it.
The three arrows looked delicate, and when I held them in my hands, they stung my skin like needles.
“What is this?” I held the token in my hand, puzzled.
Tu Cheng explained coldly: “This is my specially made General’s Mandate! It was mainly used to kill zombies, so it also had a strong killing power against ghosts and monsters. As long as these three red General’s Mandate are used properly, even you can kill undeads and destroy wraiths! ”
“That powerful?”
My face lit up and I immediately thanked him.
Tu Cheng said with a cold expression, “These three General’s Mandate arrows cost ten thousand yuan each. If you don’t want to pay, then that’s fine too. But you can trade it for a bowl of blood!”
Hearing that, my smile immediately froze.
He still needed money after all this. Ten thousand yuan per stick, wasn’t this thing a bit too expensive?
Taking thirty thousand dollars to buy these three General’s Mandate Arrows was extremely painful for me. After making the final calculation, I decisively decided to sell my blood.
Seeing that I was willing to sell my blood, Tu Cheng’s cold expression eased up a bit. He then took out a bowl as fast as he could and started bleeding. Luckily, this guy was still human. The bowl he took wasn’t too big.
Due to the fact that my body’s recovery speed is too fast, the cut that I just made stopped bleeding after a short while. Tu Cheng could only slash at me again.
A bowl of blood fell, and I don’t know how many knives I drew.
It wasn’t much of a pain, but it was scary. The white knife came out red as if it were a chicken, and I was the only one who didn’t shake it.
After the bleeding, apart from my brief dizziness, there wasn’t much change.
After carefully taking away the blood, Tu Cheng pointed at the command medallion and said, “These three General’s Mandate s are not easy to come by. Don’t use them unless you have no other choice. And … “If you really can’t control your body, kill yourself with an arrow as soon as possible. Like this, stab your heart!”
In case I didn’t understand, Tu Cheng even gestured to me, which scared me to death.
After all this time, this thing isn’t only used to deal with zombies and ghosts, it’s also used to prevent me from going crazy. It was like the last bullet, when it ran out of ammunition, he would use it to kill himself and avoid being captured as a prisoner.
My situation is similar to this, once I, Cadaveric Poison, completely erupt, my consciousness would be engulfed, at that time I would be a walking corpse, a bloodthirsty monster with no humanity at all.
In order to avoid turning into a monster, Tu Cheng gave me a choice.
However, this choice made me at a loss on what to do. If it really comes to that, even I don’t know if I would have the courage to commit suicide.
After a while, Tu Cheng took out three items from upstairs and placed them in front of me.
The first was a red peach wood sword with complicated runes engraved on it. The second was a small vest with jade inlaid on it. The second was a bow that could be folded.
“Although these three items aren’t of much use to me, they are life-saving treasures to you.”
Tu Cheng acted like a salesman as he pointed at three things and said, “Three star peach wood sword, it has a very strong restraining effect on evil. Three star jade talisman armor is mainly used to protect one’s life, so evil things do not dare to approach one’s body. “As for this bow, it is a four-star bow. Since it is not equipped with an arrow, its power has been greatly reduced.
“How much do these things cost?” I asked tentatively.
“It’s not expensive. It’s only 100,000 yuan per piece. If you want all three items, I can give you a discount.”
Tu Cheng said seriously, “If you don’t want to pay, that’s fine too. One item is exchanged for two bowls of blood. The total price is six bowls of blood.”
I stiffly smiled. “Forget it, I don’t need it for now. We’ll talk about it in a few days.”
“In a few days? Once you go to the Chang’an Town, you will be in danger at any time. If you do not have any treasures to protect yourself, then it will be too late for you to regret anything! ”
Tu Cheng said coldly, “Moreover, I have a habit. What I take out has never been taken back. “Of these three things, you must choose one of them. Even if you don’t want one, you must have one!”
Looking at Tu Cheng’s threatening expression, I decisively compromised.
Finally, he pointed at the Exorcist Bow and said, “Then I want this.”
“You know how to use a bow?” Tu Cheng raised an eyebrow.
“I know a bit. After all, I grew up in the mountains. I relied on the mountains to eat the water. Those that live in the mountains, what did they say they didn’t know how to survive without hunting?”
I smiled. “I used to play with it quite often when I was free. I’ve hunted quite a few wild hare deer and such. Although I haven’t touched it for a few years, it shouldn’t be a problem for me to familiarize myself with it.”
Tu Cheng nodded, but didn’t say anything else. He tossed the bow to me.
It looked very light and nimble, but it was very heavy to the touch. Its entire body was pitch black, and it was unknown what material it was made of. I pulled the string of my bow and found that my strength was exceptionally strong. Even though I had a special physique, I could only pull it to half of its original strength.
If it were any other ordinary person, they would probably be unable to do so.
I was somewhat shocked. With such strength, I didn’t know how powerful it would be.
Firstly, I had played with the bow and arrow, so I was quite familiar with it. Secondly, the bow and arrow had been shot from afar, so even if I met a ghost or something like that, I could still make a move from afar.
Compared to a close combat with the peach wood sword, this bow was much safer.
Moreover, this bow was quite special and could be folded from the middle. This way, it would be easier to carry.
The most important reason was that I had a faint feeling that this bow was not simple, and that it might bring me unexpected surprises.
