Chapter 274 Premature Burial (Part 2) (Two in One)

At this time, Richard was extremely confused in his heart.

There was no need to consider the possibility that Xiao Hui's maid had deceived him. The other party didn't even bother to use such a shameless trick on a little person like him who wanted nothing in their eyes. In other words, this choice is indeed one he needs to face.

If possible, Richard hopes that his daughter's soul can be free, so that he needs to give one-fifth of his life force; but if his soul is bound, then his daughter will be in the world after rebirth. In life, it is destined to be a short trip.

Richard clearly remembered that the short-haired maid just said the word "live and die together", and then confirmed to the maid again that the meaning of "live and die together" is that if he, as the "main soul", dies, then his daughter After dying 72 hours later, Richard became even more confused.

He knew that he was just an ordinary mortal, and of course he would leave before his daughter... But if he chose to pay for his life force now, his daughter would go with him.

In fact, if it's just for Richard's own consideration, it doesn't matter either way. After all, he won’t be able to see his daughter after he dies, right? However, Richard was willing to go through all kinds of hardships to get here and find the materials after nearly dying. The so-called original intention was not just to satisfy his own wishes.

He hopes that his daughter can live like a normal person again and live out the life she was supposed to live.

"Please... treat her kindly." Richard finally made a choice - maybe this is the limitation of mortals. In the end, he still hopes that his daughter can have a second life like a normal person, instead of living under his own circumstances. After leaving, you can only pass away helplessly.

"My pleasure." The long-straight black maid who spoke before smiled and bowed slightly to Richard. She took out a silver knife from her maid skirt and began to make gestures on her wrist.

Later, Xiao Hui also completed the carving of the "Oliha Gang Magic Metal" - she strung the small piece of metal engraved with runes with a rope and made it into a pendant. The image of this pendant always seemed familiar to Richard, and then he quickly remembered: Becas J. Croft's wife, who was speculated to be the reborn Xantia, had also been hanging around her neck. Such a pendant!

[It seems...the legend is true. 】Richard guessed this in his mind, but he did not dare to say it directly.

"Blood." After Xiao Hui finished carving the runes, she took out the pendant and ordered the long and straight black maid beside her.

Hei Changzhi nodded, and then used the silver knife in her hand to cut her wrist without hesitation. Red blood spurted out, while her other hand held the pendant that Xiao Hui had just carved tightly. Pressed on the wound on the wrist!

The moment he pressed it, not a drop of blood escaped. All of it was absorbed by the runes on the pendant. The runes then emitted a coquettish red light. Instead, the maid who had lost a lot of blood showed a look on her face. A flush of satisfaction.

After a while, the maid took off the pendant with all the runes lit up. At this time, her wrist had completely healed.

Xiao Hui ordered without stopping: "Tears."

The maid nodded, held the pendant in both hands, brought it to Sakura's mouth, and then kissed it gently.

This time the "tears" process was not as scary as the previous "blood" process. The maid seemed to be just kissing the pendant.

But even as a layman, Richard could feel that something like an aura on the maid was gradually disappearing at this moment, and then all of it was injected into the small pendant.

After a long time, the lips parted.

On the pendant that has been processed for the second time, the runes are no longer as dim and colorless as they were before, nor are they glowing with blood like they were after the first processing. Instead, they emit a faint glow. Purple.

At this time, the maid with long black hair and straight hair who had completed the two processes seemed to be recovering from a serious illness. Xiao Hui asked her to go and rest before she could say anything.

Then, Xiao Hui took the processed pendant and said to Richard in front of her: "Put it on her, for your... daughter."

"Is this... okay?" Richard held the pendant in his hand and looked at the girl in front of him in disbelief - he couldn't believe that in such a short period of time, this girl who had been admired by countless people since ancient times had The difficult problem that scientists and metaphysicians have spent their entire lives unable to answer is solved in this way!

"If you don't believe it, you can return it to me." Xiao Hui didn't say a word - since she had given away the "premature burial", there was no cause and effect between herself and Richard, so she naturally didn't plan to say anything more. Say half a word.

"Don't look at it, the master has such a personality." The short-haired maid on the side played the role of explanation at this time: "It's like a computer requires a lot of resources to be developed and produced and requires strict craftsmanship, but to use it, you only need to open it It's the same thing with a switch - it's difficult to make, but it's not a hindrance to use it."

"I see..." He carefully put away the "premature burial". The eagerness in Richard's heart could no longer be suppressed, so he hurriedly asked Xiaohui and the maids to resign, "If the little girl can really be reborn. , your kindness..."

Richard's words were interrupted by the short-haired maid. She frowned and said to Richard in front of her: "That's fine. The master just told me that he was cleared, so you can't come here again in the future. Here it is.”

"This... is okay." Guessing that this should be the rule of the Island of Life and Death, Richard did not go into more details, but endured the eagerness in his heart, maintained his grace, and bowed to Xiao Hui and the maids. Planning to leave here as soon as possible: "I also hope to see my little girl again soon, so please excuse me first."

Xiao Hui just nodded in acquiescence.

When Richard left, Xiao Hui asked the short-haired maid to go out to see him off. She also gave him some final instructions and taught him how to use the "premature burial".

Then, she took out a large roll of quilt from nowhere and wrapped herself up again.

——————The Demon of Lamp——————

At the same time, the two members of "Heaven and Hell" who sneaked into the Island of Life and Death and their two one-time friends also sneaked into a library built next to the cemetery.

According to the notes of the current pioneer (referring to the leader of the organization) of "Heaven and Hell" who once sneaked into the Island of Life and Death and barely escaped by sacrificing more than a dozen "disposable friends", there are many things on this Island of Life and Death. He once sacrificed eight "disposable friends" in order to find out which bookshelf actually contained the forbidden knowledge of resurrecting the dead, and the final result was...

Basically every library has a similar collection of books...

Yes, this kind of precious knowledge that can reverse life and death is everywhere like big radishes, but they have different names.

Since it is an organization that specializes in studying the second generation of dueling kings, "Heaven and Hell" naturally has a very deep understanding of dueling; some people in the organization even believe that Dongfeng Gui's knowledge comes from those who can resurrect monsters in duels. Magic card...

However, this absurd point of view was naturally ridiculed and belittled by everyone in the organization. Lina remembered that the previous pioneer who proposed this point of view couldn't argue with other people in the organization, so she went crazy. Lost at sea.

And now, when she saw the familiar name on the bookshelf in front of her, Lina showed a tangled expression for a moment...

"Book of the Living: Forbidden Magic"

This tome, wrapped in a gold-gilt cover, seems to have several thousand pages at a glance. Although it is very thick, it is very small compared to the bookshelves in the entire library; and there are seven or eight in this library. The books on the bookshelf...actually only this one!

The rest of the bookshelf, which can hold hundreds of books, is filled with Dongfeng Guhui's "reading notes". It can be seen from some marks on the cover that these "reading notes" are all It's about the "Book of the Living: Forbidden Magic"...

So, how much is condensed into the thousands of pages of the original text? Lina said it was hard to imagine this question.

As for these "reading notes", Lina took out one and hurriedly flipped through it, and found that they were all filled with tiny, tiny characters. There were even many formulas written by herself and complex hand-drawn charts...

As for the content above, even if Lina is a student who graduated from Princeton University with straight honors, she will feel dizzy just by looking at it - but for Lina, this dizzy feeling is the best. As a gift, this forbidden knowledge is as intoxicating as heroin to her...

"The ancestors were right." Lina closed the reading notebook, shook her head, and then said to the school girl next to her in a rather regretful tone: "If we could listen to the ancestors, we would have gone to Duel Monsters long ago. If we analyze this seemingly unreliable direction, we can avoid many detours and sacrifice many members. "

The school girl nodded, but her eyes were obviously in a daze, and Lina didn't know what she was thinking at this time.

She planned to take some of the reading notes back - in Pioneer's notes, she was specifically reminded not to touch those "original works". At most, she could only touch the notes and notes written by Dongfeng Guhui herself.

Lina, who followed the teachings of the pioneers, planned to do the same this time. However, Lina may be like this, but this requirement does not apply to everyone present.

"You mean... it seems that only this original book records all the contents here? The others are just annotations of this book?" The female ninja among the friends suddenly spoke when Lina wanted to select a few notebooks, She pointed to the gold-covered "Book of the Living: Forbidden Art", leaned her head over and asked Lina: "Then can we just take this one? Condensation is the essence... You might want to If all the books in this warehouse are moved, then it would be better to move the gold from the previous warehouse."

"This is the rule." Lina, who was intoxicated with the knowledge left by Xiao Hui, said impatiently to the female ninja: "The 'original code' must not be touched, otherwise there will be big trouble."

"You said you can't move, so you can't move?" The female ninja reached out to the tome and muttered: "I know that the rules of this kind of organization are always very... huh?"

"Someone is coming!" The male ninja who was watching the door and had not spoken hastily turned around and made the four people in the library hide.

And at this time, the footsteps were indeed getting closer... Listening to this sound, the person who came must be coming here!

The ninja clenched the ninja sword in his hand; while Lina and the school girl each took out a lipstick-like pistol from their boots. This kind of gun has only one bullet and is specially used for emergency situations like this. .

The footsteps of the visitor finally stopped at the door, and Lina and the others held their breath...

"We're here. At your request, Mr. Hogan, we placed your daughter's coffin in the cemetery nearby." A young female voice came from outside the door, "I'll take you there."

"Trouble, trouble..." The next person to speak was an excited middle-aged man.

"You're welcome, it's just Mr. Hogan, do you remember what I told you before?" The female voice did not set off immediately, but asked the other man a question first.

"I remember, of course I remember." The man's voice was breathy, and he hurriedly replied: "The first is the steps, just hang it around the little girl's neck; the second is the precautions, the pendant cannot leave the little girl's neck. If she leaves her body in any way, she will die within seventy-two hours; the third is to drink the bowl of... ahem... medicine you gave me before. "

The man spoke too hastily and choked.

"Don't worry, Mr. Hogan." The female voice then rang, "Let's leave right away - besides, the bowl of amnesia medicine, I will drink it later~"

"I know, I know……"

Then, the footsteps of the two people gradually became distant.

After confirming that the two of them were far away, the foursome, who had been holding their breath, breathed a sigh of relief. They sat slumped on the ground, breathing in the stale air in the library.

The conversation just now contained too much information for them. It almost confirmed that there is a secret method that can make people reborn on the Island of Life and Death!

Moreover, what is even more surprising is that they are actually open to the outside world to a certain extent, and even provide this service to some people!

For a moment, no matter Lina, the school girl, or the two friends, they all felt that they had secretly heard a big news today...

"Huh..." After breathing a long sigh of relief, the expressions of the two ninjas... and even the school girl looking at the original book of "The Book of the Living: Forbidden Art" were not right.

[As long as you master this original scripture...there is no doubt that you will become a rare transcendent person in the world! 】

This idea appeared in the minds of four people at the same time, but Lina quickly suppressed the idea, and then she wanted to stop the school girl and the two ninjas: "Don't, this will..."

"Crunch~~~"

However, when the three people's hands touched the gilded cover of "The Book of the Living: Forbidden Art", the door of the library slowly opened.

A maid with beautiful shoulder-length hair was standing at the door with a sweet smile. Due to the backlight, she looked like a silhouette and her face could not be seen clearly.

"I knew you couldn't help it."
