Chapter 889 - Stilt Scales


At this time, another woman about twenty years old came down from the doorway.

She took out a very thin iron chain, tied the weak ancestral witch to her back, and then climbed up with the ancestral witch. hemp rope.

Before leaving the cave entrance, the ancestral witch once again told Xu Xiazi that he must refine the Immortality Pill within a month, so don't delay.

Idea, I said it as an instruction, not a warning.

This ancestral witch seemed to have a very good relationship with Blind Xu, and he didn't care about Blind Xu's contradiction to him just now.

But remembering that he had threatened Xu Xiazi like that before, I felt that the relationship between the two people seemed to be very interesting.

After the ancestral witch left, Xu Blind looked at the corpse demon on the execution bed, and his whole face became mournful.

He opened his mouth and wanted to say something to the corpse demon, but before I heard his voice, the person in the darkroom The scene shook violently, just like when watching satellite TV, the signal suddenly encountered unknown interference.

When the scene stabilized, something changed in Xu Xiazi's appearance.

His beard became longer and shaggy, and his hair became very messy.

The corpse demon lying on the execution bed has also completely shrunk, and there is still intermittent blood flowing in the blood tank on the edge of the bed.

I can guess that there should be a long gap between the scene before my eyes and the previous scene.

Xu Xiazi struggled to carry a sack onto the execution bed.

Then he smiled at the corpse demon and said that he had already taken Bai Tiedan and the five poisons could not kill him.

Don't tell me, I actually know what the Bai Tiedan that Xu Xiazi mentioned is.

It is a detoxifying elixir that was circulated in the Jin and Southern and Northern Dynasties.

The person who created the Bai Tiedan prescription was the famous alchemist Ge Ge in the Western Jin Dynasty.

Hong, it’s just that although this kind of elixir is very powerful in detoxifying and protecting against poison, it also has a huge shortcoming, that is, it needs to be repeatedly coated with mercury during the refining process.

In addition, Baitiedan is not a quick-acting drug and needs to be taken continuously within half a month to have an effect.

Since no one is making Bai Tiedan these days, I don’t know its specific efficacy.

But looking back at Xu Xiazi’s body, I guess the reason why his body did not rot for many years has a lot to do with the fact that he had taken Bai Tiedan. relation.

Look at Xu Xiazi standing in front of the execution bed at this time.

His body is no longer rickety, but somewhat deformed and twisted.

This symptom is very similar to Minamata disease caused by mercury salts.

Because his body became somewhat deformed, Xu Blind needed a lot of effort to open the sack and take out the contents.

At first when he mentioned the words "Five Poisons", I thought I heard him wrong, until I saw what was in the bag.

Red-mouthed snakes, black-and-white toads, six-bearded centipedes, two-tailed scorpions, and silver-eyed geckos, these things are all extremely powerful existences even among the five poisons.

What does blind man Xu want to do?

I was just wondering when I saw Blind Man Xu take out a sharp blade and cut the silver-eyed gecko's chest with great difficulty.

A large amount of poisonous blood fell from the gecko's body and spilled into the blood trough at the edge of the execution bed.

When the silver-eyed gecko in his hand almost stopped bleeding, Xu Blind would change to another poison and continue to bleed.

These poisons seemed to have made him very weak, and he showed no resistance at all.

The last poison was drained of blood, and Xu Blind put the poison's body back into the sack.

At this moment, the blood tank was filled with the blood of various poisons, and there should be a strong poisonous smell in the air, because Xu Xiazi The expression on his face was ugly.

When I saw this, I understood that he wanted to refine the toxicity of the five poisons into the longevity pill.

In this way, the longevity pill would become a deadly poison.

The picture fluctuated again here, and after a few minutes, the picture returned to calm.

At this time, Blind Xu was still standing in front of the execution bed.

He was holding a deep plate in his hand.

I don’t know whether it was because the Minamata disease had worsened or because he was too excited.

Blind Xu’s hands were trembling all the time, causing the contents of the plate to tremble.

The pills were shaking wildly.

But the expression on Xu Xiazi's face was unusually calm, so calm that it was impossible to tell whether he was alive or dead.

Xu Xiazi opened his mouth and told the corpse demon that their plan might fail.

The ancestral witch had prepared this elixir for others.

Hearing what he meant, he originally thought that when the elixir was refined, the ancestral witch would take it.

Just when Xu Xiazi was talking to the corpse demon, the screen began to shake again.

At first I thought the screen was going to change again, but after a closer look I realized that there was an earthquake in the darkroom at that time.

Xu Xiazi's body was severely twisted, and his hands seemed to have no strength.

But strangely, he was able to stand steadily in the violent shock.

The expression on his face at that time was only slightly confused, and he did not appear to be overly panicked. look.

At this time, someone poked his head in from the doorway and told Blind Xu that in the darkroom on the third floor, which was empty at first, thunder and lightning suddenly gathered.

The currents swayed on the stalactite pillars, as if they had no intention of dissipating.

I took a closer look at this person's appearance.

He was around twenty years old and very handsome.

If he hadn't had a beard, I might have mistaken him for a woman.

Zuo Youdao couldn't help but say: "Why does this person look so much like Houzai?"

When he said this, I realized that the eyebrows and nose of the young man in front of me were almost exactly the same as Liang Houzai's, except that the expression on Liang Houzai's face was always gentler, but this man had such a gloomy look that at first We associate his appearance with Liang Houzai.

When Blind Xu heard what the young man said, he suddenly became excited and said that he had indeed found the right place, it was here, it was here.

Don't blame me for describing the problem.

At that time, the words that Blind Man Xu said were almost vague and crazy, and I didn't know what he meant.

The young man asked Blind Xu whether it was time to release Mu Hu.

Blind Xu nodded and asked the young man to finish these things and wait for him in the uppermost tomb of the Ming Dynasty.

He also said that without the other party's help, he could rely on himself alone.

His strength could not close the lid of the sarcophagus.

After that, the young man retreated into the doorway, while Xu Xiazi quickly walked towards me and Zuo Youdao.

I was startled, and quickly tightened my grip on the Netherworld Tongbao.

Zuo Youdao also heard a "clop" sound from his long sword being unsheathed.

Worrying for nothing, Xu Xiazi's figure passed directly through Zuo Youdao's chest.

He walked to the corner of the darkroom and placed the longevity pill on a tall scale.

The support pole of the scale was more than one meter high, with a balance pole carved into the shape of two dragons hanging on their tails.

Each of the dragon mouths at the pole head hung a palm-sized weighing pan.

Xu Xiazi placed the elixir on the left scale.

On the weighing plate, he took out the prepared jade pieces from his pocket and gently placed them on the weighing plate on the right.

The weight of the elixir and the jade piece were exactly the same.

After Xu Blind Man put them into the scale, the scale successfully maintained an absolute balance.

Zuo Youdao looked carefully at the jade piece on the scale and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Isn't this Yin Jade?"

While he was speaking, Blind Man Xu had already walked to the execution bed and bowed deeply to the shriveled corpse on the bed.

Although he was physically handicapped, he still tried his best to press his hands below his knees.

Someone outside called Blind Xu and urged him to leave.

Blind Xu said that he had finished the matter.

Then a strong man jumped into the darkroom and carried Blind Xu out with his twisted limbs.

After they left, the picture fluctuated again, as if the signal had been interfered with, and then the picture disappeared, and the entire darkroom returned to darkness and silence.

Until the picture disappeared for a long time, Zuo Youdao and I were a little unable to relax.

We both generally know why this slide-like scene appears, but the content presented in the picture is really hard to recover from.

The reason why such a scene appears is because the rock formations of this generation have very strong magnetism, so that the environment here is like a video tape, which can record some things that have happened.

People in our industry know that rocks also have Memory refers to the fact that some stones can be used as memory to record the people or things that have passed by it.

A memory like this is originally dusty.

No one knows who it remembers or what it remembers.

But once a strong current passes nearby, it may be like a projector being fully charged all of a sudden.

The contents of the videotape reappeared.

If I remember correctly, every time Xu Xiazi's figure appeared, it was after thunder exploded in the power storage room.

I don’t know how long it took, but Zuo Youdao turned around first.

He turned around and shone his flashlight on a piece of black cloth next to us.

The cloth was gathered very high.

From the outline, the bottom of the cloth was What is covered should be a tall scale.

"After Blind Xu left, who covered these black cloths, and why did they cover them with such cloths?"

Zuo Youdao frowned and said to himself.

I said: "It seems that Blind Xu has many helpers around him.

By the way, the young man who appeared just now cannot be Liang Houzai's ancestor."

Zuo Youdao nodded, then shook his head: "It's possible, but it's hard to say."

As he spoke, Zuo Youdao stretched out his hand and tried to pull the black cloth covering the scale.

The cloth seemed to be made of light silk.

With just a slight pull, the black cloth slowly unfolded.

Flying lightly into the air.

As the black cloth floats away, two scales are revealed to our eyes at the same time.

The elixir is still placed in the scale pan on the left, but it has obviously been tampered with.

There is a small groove on it, as if someone took a piece of it away with their fingernails, while the jade pill in the right pan is still there.

The piece was also replaced by two unknown stone crystals.

There were others who came before us I heard Zuo Youdao muttering from the side: "The Yin Jade was indeed stolen by the Burial Sect's people."

"How did the people from the Burial Cult get in?"

In my opinion, the mechanism of swimming at the bottom is too complicated.

If I didn’t have the inheritance of Lu Ban, I wouldn’t be able to open it even with the diagram of the mechanism, let alone Zhou Lianshan.

In fact, he just held the diagram and could not open it.

It doesn't make any sense, since he can't get in anyway
