1154. Tomb of Tusi King (98)
After returning to the Sutra Cave from the tomb of Princess Zhumu, Cen Qin and others did not immediately tell the captain and his companions. They were in a very bad state. They were not seriously injured, but more seriously, the sequelae of long-term mental destruction and distortion. Most people looked even worse than after the endless slaughter that destroyed the Demon Kingdom.
Fortunately, the two brigades have a deep foundation and many good things to heal the spirit and expel pollution. Li Hongxue, who stayed in the Sutra Cave, had already prepared lotus and lotus seed magic honey water to ward off evil spirits and exorcise demons, and also prepared Qingjing rice and talisman water. The deputy captain of Fengdu also prepared a lot of good things, among which he placed the most preciously on the top, a palm-sized locust wood box.
As soon as the peak travelers who went out came back, they started to eat and drink to heal themselves without delay.
"Here."
Yu Xiangyang handed Cen Qin two balls of Qingjing Rice. Cen Qin was now sitting cross-legged on the ground with the snow-white cat in her arms, her face buried in its thick white fur. She waved her hands lazily without raising her head, and tightened her arms around the big cat. The big white cat licked its paws calmly as if it was used to being held, and gurgled in its throat. It was interested in the rice balls in Yu Xiangyang's hand, and sniffed curiously with its whiskers shaking. Then it opened its mouth and took a bite, looking like it wanted to eat.
"Director Zero probably hasn't eaten Qingjing Rice before, give him my share, I'll just suck the cat."
Cen Qin said lazily, holding the cat and taking another deep breath, and then exhaling comfortably and relaxingly. Fortunately, after Director Zero spit out the concentrated pollution, he returned to the weight of a normal big cat. Although it was still about 20 pounds and very heavy, at least it didn't break Cen Qin's hand like the sun! Fortunately, he could still hold it up, otherwise he would have to lie on the ground to suck the cat.
"Meow~Meow~"
Before he could bite the rice ball, the cat was already meowing and urging him. Yu Xiangyang directly stuffed the pill-like Qingjing rice into the cat's mouth. The big white cat chewed it happily, and then stopped the next second, squinting his eyes and showing an expression of doubt about cat life. His hind paws couldn't help but kick Cen Qin's body, as if burying shit.
"Hahaha, it doesn't taste good."
Cen Qin laughed and stroked the cat's head to comfort him: "Just swallow it directly. It's not delicious, but it's very useful."
Wan Anpin, who was watching, also smiled helplessly: "Add some honey or sprinkle some chili powder, maybe it will taste better."
Qingjing rice is actually made of blue stone fat and rice soaked in water and pounded into pills. After eating, you can "take one or two pills and you won't feel hungry" and "walk on the steep peaks like a flying bird."* The blue stone fat of Xuanxue is even more extraordinary. It is taken from Zhu Mingyao Zhen's cave among the ten great caves, and was given to Xuanxue by Mr. Qingjing who governs the cave. Green is the color of the East, corresponding to spring, when everything is growing and the Yang energy is rising. Green rice can refresh the spirit and expel pollution. It is no worse than refined elixirs, but it is simple to make. It can be regarded as a secret recipe of metaphysics. Peak travelers can eat one pill without being hungry for two days. It is also small and easy to carry.
When a metaphysical person goes on a journey, even if he loses all his luggage in a life-threatening situation and is in the wilderness without any food, as long as the green rice pills he carries with him are still there, he can basically return to the team full. Of course, its taste is not good. The stone fat is sour and greasy. It is okay to swallow it directly. If you chew it a few times, it will be like chewing lard, which is difficult to swallow.
...The big white cat finally swallowed it. After all, it is not a real cat. It is too embarrassing to vomit it out in front of everyone! It fell limply in Cen Qin's arms, and a pair of listless cat eyes glanced at Fengdu. I saw those peak travelers gathered together, not knowing what they were doing, looking mysterious. It curiously broke free from Cen Qin's arms, and ran over to see with its tail up. After squeezing in from Wuyun's legs and looking up, it saw Wuyun, the leader, solemnly opening the locust wood box, taking out something from it, and giving a small handful to each of the top travelers entering the tomb.
The big cat opened its eyes wide, immediately stepped on Wuyun's legs to stand up, looked at it with great interest, and then sneezed.
"A-choo!"
It was a big cat, and it was strong, and its sneezing momentum was almost the same as that of a human, which frightened several people around to quickly protect the paper scraps in their hands to prevent them from flying away - yes, it was paper scraps.
The locust wood box was full of paper scraps, and Wuyun gave each person as much as two fingernails. Their Fengdu Brigade was a brigade that connected to the tour guide, so of course there was no need for other folk remedies to remove pollution! Although the silverfish did not come this time, Wuyun brought several boxes of paper scraps made by the silverfish! Whether it is swallowed directly or soaked in water, mixed with rice, or burned and inhaled smoke, it can achieve the effect of indirect relief and removal of pollution!
"Are you interested?"
Seeing the big white cat coming over, Wuyun's eyes flashed, and he actually bent down and held the box of confetti in front of the big cat: "You--"
Do you have any impression of this power? Have you ever seen a silverfish?
Before he asked this question, he saw the big cat sticking its head out to sniff, and then it took a sharp breath as if it was allergic to pollen, and sneezed loudly!
"Crack!"
Even though Wuyun closed the cover with lightning speed, a small handful of confetti was still blown away and stuck to his hands and sleeves, which made Wuyun feel so distressed! The culprit ran away, and comfortably returned to the sleeping bag nest next to the fire, stretched his claws and legs, and stretched his body for a long time.
"It's almost time to rest, I think I can talk about what happened in the princess's tomb."
That's right. Seeing that Wuyun hit a soft nail, Cen Qin curled her lips. Lingdao and his team are still in a state of amnesia. It is highly likely that they have not met the tour guides who were thrown into the mountain in advance. Wuyun has already thrown the paper scraps with the power of silverfish in front of the big cat. What if Lingdao really feels familiar and recovers his memory? It is so difficult and dangerous to open up the tomb of the Tusi King. Cen Qin does not want Lingdao to have any accidents.
Wan Anpin also thought so. He stood in front of Wuyun calmly, just blocking the big white cat who was licking his fur comfortably: "Captain Wu, how are you?"
"Everything is fine."
Wuyun calmed down and knew that he was too worried about Silverfish and others and was anxious. So he adjusted his mood and restrained his expression. The atmosphere on both sides became harmonious again: "I think we should talk about it now."
They did not talk about the Queen's Tomb immediately after returning to the Sutra Cave. One reason was to let the teammates recover, and the other was to wait for the movement of the Hilarious Man.
But the Hilarious Man has not appeared yet, and there is no new movement. Maybe he really left the Demon Kingdom and did not pay attention to the situation here? Or maybe he is not going to take action yet?
In any case, there is no need to wait any longer.
"This myth replay is different from the past."
Fuyunbai of Fengdu Brigade said coldly. His face was naturally pale, his blood and qi were insufficient, his horoscope was too yin, there was a green air between his eyebrows, and his lips were dark blue. He looked like a sickly ghost who would not live long. He had known Wuyun when he first entered the hostel. He had been fighting side by side with Wuyun for so many years. He was very trusted by Wuyun and his strength was even stronger. Even on the top of the peak traveler rankings, he could rank at the top.
But this time, even if he had the strongest strength, he could not play it out.
"After entering the tomb, the myth replay started directly, and I became the Princess of Zhumu."
When Fuyunbai heard Cen Qin say twelve years when he finished replaying the tomb, he knew it in his heart. Later, these people simply compared and knew that their experiences in the tomb were exactly the same.
In most cases, whether it is a scene replay or a myth replay, the tourist guides enter the scene at that time, or obtain the corresponding identity, or enter as the original body of the tourist guide, and then use their strength to change the past, destroy the past, or replay the past. Help the gods, change the myths, go with the flow, reenact the myths, slaughter the gods, subvert the myths - in short, they can participate in it.
But this time the situation is different. Although they have become the Princess of Zhumu, they cannot move freely, and their own strength talents are also sealed, just like being sealed in the body of the princess in the reenactment of the myth, experiencing her painful past together.
"Princess Zhumu struggled hard when she was taken to the Kingdom of Hall, and even intended to assassinate the King of the White Tent. Then her hands and legs were twisted off and she was forcibly taken to the Kingdom of Hall."
Fuyun Bai said: "I feel her pain, and it is more intense than ordinary broken hands and feet. The pain is at least ten times stronger."
"That's right."
Cen Qin speculated: "If it's not unexpected, the superposition of pain should be based on the number of people entering the tomb."
Flesh torn, tendons and bones broken, as a top traveler who has been traveling through dangerous places for several years, who hasn't broken hands and feet? Everyone knows what that kind of pain feels like. The pain is more than ten times greater. The pain of flesh tearing and bone fracture is like a sharp knife tearing the heart. It hurts so much that even the top travelers will break out in a cold sweat.
"Not only the pain, but other perceptions are also enhanced."
Floating clouds and white roads, Princess Zhumu was abducted from Lingguo to Holeguo, and there was wind, frost, rain and snow along the way. It was hot during the day and cold at night. The heat was superimposed more than ten times, just like boiling magma poured on the body, the pain was unspeakable, and the cold was superimposed more than ten times. The limbs were filled with sharp pains like dense steel needles piercing the flesh and bones, and there was no heat in the lungs.
People can be killed by pain, and perception can confuse cognition and deceive the body. Ordinary people who experience all this, even if they only experience it mentally, will probably immediately feedback to the body and die suddenly. Even the tourist guides who have strength to rely on are not much better, because Princess Zhumu is an "ordinary person", and the peak tourists who empathize with her have also become ordinary people, and have to endure more than ten times the pain, and this pain is not for an hour or a whole day.
For the peak tourists, the time gate of the myth replay is not accelerated, and one day is a solid day, and one year is a year. From the time Princess Zhumu was abducted to the Kingdom of Hole and suffered inhumane treatment, to the entire Hole Kingdom becoming a demon country and falling into the devil's domain. Ordinary people cannot survive in the demon country. In order to prevent the beautiful princess who was abducted from dying tragically, the White Tent King gave her his magic blood.
However, Princess Zhumu is the incarnation of White Tara, and neither the magic blood nor the pollution can completely erode her, so the pain of pollution and rot will always exist. She turned into a demon in the pain of twisted bones and broken flesh at night, and turned back to human body in the severe pain of rotten flesh and broken bones during the day. And the peak tourists endured more than ten times the pain together, day and night, day and night.
