Chapter 571 Smell the Fragrant Jade

Ye Tingbai: "Since you said he is so dangerous, should we leave here?"

The little monk looked around and did not answer immediately.

Chun Xia: "I don't know how to put it. I feel that he can only achieve the kind of power by using those purple crystals. The placement of those crystals is very particular. If I hadn't just detonated those crystals, he might not have escaped so easily.

This sandwich world is likely to be the hub for him to gather power.

I think we can't miss this opportunity. Once we leave now, we probably won't be able to come back."

Ye Tingbai felt that what the little monk said made sense. The key he searched from the third brother led directly to the inner world full of monsters. It was the little monk who accidentally copied the key and came here.

Normally, Ye Tingbai would not have the opportunity to enter this sandwich world. Although the two worlds are very similar, they are actually very different.

Ye Tingbai: "If this place is destroyed, will it make him weaker?"

Chun Xia: "I'm not sure, but it's highly likely.

What does he mean by the method of purifying divine power he asked you just now?"

Ye Tingbai took out a few drops of starry sky divine power from the kingdom of God. This is the purification method he obtained from the future. This world may not have invented it yet. This divine power is extremely pure and ordinary divine power cannot be condensed. In the future world, those gods can only hunt the descendants of foreign gods to purify it.

But Ye Tingbai has divine power given by foreign gods, which can be purified infinitely. Although the speed is very slow, it has accumulated for more than a year and is as big as a small pond.

This can be regarded as a high-concentration fuel, but most of the divine art discs in Ye Tingbai's hand cannot withstand the enhancement of this divine power. With high-energy fuel, but no weapons to match it, it is very useless.

The little monk looked at the few starlight water beads in Ye Tingbai's hand and felt unusually intimate, but she had never seen such a thing, let alone how to use it.

Chun Xia: "This must be related to the star remains, but I don't know what the connection is."

Ye Tingbai: "Why are you so sure?"

"Hunting local gods is a high-risk thing. If it's those weak gods, it doesn't matter, but once we meet the kind of fighting gods, we are no match at all.

So no one will take the risk to do such a thing, and there is no deep hatred.

There is only one reason for hunting local gods, and there is no other reason to want the remains, so this thing must be related to the remains."

Ye Tingbai took two drops of star power and put them directly on the crystal on his wrist, but nothing happened.

Ye Tingbai: "It's a nonsense to guess like this, it's better to tear down his nest."

The place where they are is a rectangular storage room of about 5*10, which is full of storage shelves, and the things stored here are nothing else, but the masks worn by those people.

Those strange masks that can replace other people's faces. This mask feels cold to the touch, just like the texture of ordinary stone, but the weight is very wrong, light, like completely dehydrated wood.

The secondary personality picked up the mask and smelled it, and then said: "It is recorded in the book that where the bones are everywhere, there is a precious jade. The precious jade is white but as light as a feather. It smells strange and has a strong calming effect. It is called the fragrant jade."

Ye Tingbai: "What book?"

The secondary personality: "Wu Yi's Records of All Things, I'm not sure if this is it, but I feel that the description is very similar, and it does have a faint fragrance. And the smell of sweat."

Ye Tingbai: "Calming effect?"

The secondary personality: "The record of this fragrant jade in the Records of All Things is quite long, more than a thousand words. You must know that the length of that book is very precious, and there are very few things that can be described in more than a thousand words.

It is said that the fragrant jade can It can cure any and all mental illnesses, and can make people sleep peacefully even if they are not sick. A thumb-sized piece of fragrant jade is worth a fortune. "

Chun Xia: "But there are too many fragrant jades here, right?"

Ye Tingbai: "No matter what material it is, there are so many of them, and they are in an endless supply, which can only mean that they have the method to make them.

This is a storage room, so there should be a carving room and a material room. Let's look for it. "

The masks here are basically mass-produced. There may be hundreds of masks of the same type, such as the simplest smiling mask. Compared with the smile, there are other types of masks, such as sad, sad, and angry.

But compared with the normal smile, there are very few other expressions.

Chun Xia: "Look, I found a strange mask."

Ye Tingbai looked over and saw a little monk squatting on the ground holding a mask in his hand. The mask was engraved with a woman with a warm smile on her face, but it was different from all the masks in that it was unique.

All the masks here are carved out of the same mold, just like there is a blueprint, but this mask has a hairstyle, it can be seen that it is a female, and there are many more details.

The secondary personality picked up the mask and smelled it, frowning.

"There are four different smells on this mask, one is the smell of the material itself, and the other is the sweat smell of three people, one of whom is the girl named Shen Jiujiu."

Chun Xia: "How do you know the body odor of others, huh~"

The secondary personality: "It's not very simple. If you want, I will do it now."

Ye Tingbai glared at the secondary personality and told him to stop talking. The more he talked, the more people would think they were perverts. The secondary personality knew these details, not because he would deliberately remember these things, but because these things were clearly placed in front of him.

Ye Tingbai had chatted with the girl before and had some impression of her. She was a facial engraver.

Facial engravers are a profession. More than half of the shops in this town are related to this profession. And from the conversations of people on the street, it can be seen that facial engravers are very respected here.

From his perspective, these so-called facial engravers are just a group of carvers. This mask was carved by them bit by bit, so it is normal to have a little sweat on their hands.

As for the smell of the other two people, it is a bit interesting. If you pick it up and look at it, it will generally not leave a sweat smell, unless the person has sweaty hands. After all, sweating on the palms is not common.

The sweat smell that can be clearly distinguished by the secondary personality can only mean that they may have played with the mask carefully. Could it be that people here still have the habit of playing with masks?

Ye Tingbai secretly took away a few masks that were already covered in dust, and then threw a few ordinary plastic masks on top. He was a little curious about this kind of mask, and keeping a few might be useful in the future.

The three of them tiptoed to the door, carefully observed behind the door for a while, and after confirming that there was no patrol outside the door, they pried open the door and came to the corridor. A door lock was not enough, and there was actually a gate in this corridor, which showed how important this place was in the eyes of these people.

The fact that they could return to this place from that mine cave meant that this storage room and the place covered with amethysts were in the same spatial coordinates. In other words, if there were still mine caves in this interlayer world, this storage room should be the core of the mine cave.

So, there must be something special here for the interlayer world.

Ye Tingbai: "Wait, how many floors are there here?"

Chun Xia raised her chin and showed a thoughtful look: "I remember that there are two floors from the outside, what's wrong?"

Ye Tingbai: "I just remember that the mine has always been slanted downward. If this room and that mine are in the same spatial position, this place is at least more than 30 meters underground."

According to the floor height here, it is about 3.5 meters. If the ceiling and floor are calculated as the thickest, and the first floor is four meters, there may be seven underground floors here.

If it is really that deep, it will be a bit difficult for them to return to the ground.

Sub-personality: "Too little information, let's take a look outside."

As he spoke, the sub-personality used a dagger to cut off the door lock in front of him. The harsh metal sound was particularly harsh in this silent night. Outside the gate was a dark corridor, empty, without even a window.

Not only windows, but even doors could not be seen. There was no room outside this storage room.

Ye Tingbai put his palm against the wall and knocked carefully. The sound was muffled, not hollow.

Secondary personality: "Why don't you ask me directly?

The wall behind is indeed solid, but there is a body buried there, and there is a clear dividing line between the wall and the floor.

So this wall should have been built later."

After hearing this, Ye Tingbai kicked it directly. This kind of wall was as fragile as a piece of tofu in front of him. Ye Tingbai kicked the wall completely open with a few kicks. Behind the wall was soft and sticky soil mixed with some bones.

But this pile of bones did not have any rotten smell, but instead had some fragrance.

Chun Xia: "Ah! It smells similar to those masks!"

Secondary personality: "The bones here are only vertebrae, and the bones are very dense. They are transforming like the materials used to carve masks."

Looking at this pile of bones, Ye Tingbai thought of a word, fermentation.

These bones were wrapped in soil mixed with strange powder and piled in the room, and the room was completely sealed, like a fermentation place.

These bones were obviously not buried to conceal the truth, because the soil was not compacted and was very loose. Besides, who would build a separate room to bury the vertebrae?

Several people continued to smash more than a dozen walls and found that all the rooms were the same as the previous one, with vertebrae and specially prepared soil, and the time these rooms were sealed was more than a few years apart.

The longer the closure time, the closer the bones in the room are to the material of the fragrant jade. The real finished fragrant jade is a whole spine turned into a round cake, which is just suitable for carving masks.

Ye Tingbai picked up a piece of the original round cake of fragrant jade, put it in front of his nose and sniffed it hard for a few times. In addition to a faint fragrance, there was the fishy smell of soil, and no matter how he sniffed, he could not feel any abnormality in his body.

Ye Tingbai: "Can this thing really calm the mind?"

Secondary personality: "According to the records, it should be available, and the effect is very good. We didn't use it because it might be too special. You are a spiritual body, not a human, and my spirit will not be affected.

As for her, it is impossible to calm the mind even if her soul is strong."

Ye Tingbai raised the corner of his mouth lightly, ordinary people?

Doesn't he have a ready-made one here?

Ye Tingbai caught Li Xiaoxiao from the Kingdom of God. After Li Xiaoxiao came out, she looked worried and resentful, but when she saw the long corridor full of bones, she gasped.

Li Xiaoxiao: "Where are we?"

Ye Tingbai: "Under the Carving Courtyard, smell this piece of jade and see if you feel sleepy."

Li Xiaoxiao took the jade plate from Ye Tingbai and sniffed it. She had to say that the scented jade smelled good. Except for the disgusting production process, the fragrance was better than most perfumes. It was light but very addictive.

Li Xiaoxiao smelled it for another five minutes. Since she was energetic and not sleepy at all, Ye Tingbai gradually became suspicious. Perhaps this thing was just similar to the scented jade that the secondary personality had seen.

The secondary personality stood in front of Li Xiaoxiao, attracted her attention with his fingers, and then snapped his fingers crisply.

"You fell asleep~"

Li Xiaoxiao: "I fell asleep~"

Li Xiaoxiao fell directly on the secondary personality and fell asleep. Her breathing was steady and she did not show any pain. However, Ye Tingbai did not understand the process at all.

Secondary personality: "It's just a little psychological suggestion. She was too focused. I didn't expect her to fall asleep so quickly. This thing may not have a calming effect, but it makes people very focused and easily hypnotized or guided.

Those people think that they will fall asleep after inhaling the fragrant jade, so they will fall asleep naturally.

But Li Xiaoxiao doesn't have this cognition. She didn't even feel sleepy after smelling it."

Ye Tingbai: "Mental suggestion?"

People here can change their faces, which means that the real face carving does not exist in the mask. As Shen Jiujiu said, face carving can bring changes to people's personality and talents, which may really have something to do with mental suggestion.

At first, when Ye Tingbai heard that face carving can give people fixed talents, he thought that the mask was tampered with, but then he thought about it. Since the mask can be replaced at will, it must not be a problem with the mask.

Face carving is always accompanied by mask replacement, so most people think that the face carving ceremony is equal to changing the mask, but in fact, the face carving ceremony should be something else.

The face made of fragrant jade should be just an auxiliary prop.

The facial carving ceremony is more like writing something special into these people's heads, treating them as robots and instilling fixed ideas into their heads.

Or simply hypnosis, so that this person will have a certain profession in the future, and this mask will permanently solidify this hypnosis.

All this is just Ye Tingbai's guess, there is no evidence, but he feels that it should be close.

But there is still the most important question, what is the meaning of facial carving?

Only by finding this key question can Ye Tingbai destroy this place and that person's back garden in a targeted manner, and make him pay for his behavior.

Chunxia looked at the bones all over the ground and had many doubts in her heart.

"Why are there so many bones, but there is no resentment and soul at all? It should be very painful to remove the spine from the sheet."

Ye Tingbai: "Not at all?"

Chunxia: "Well, not at all, even the dry bones on the roadside can feel a little soul, but these bones have no soul at all, just like... just like ordinary stones!"
