The energy of the wind burial dissipated, and the black snake also turned into dust and disappeared, leaving only a pile of fly ash, which fell to the ground one after another, and a layer of black residue accumulated on the ground.
The shadow pom-pom revealed a head from the nearby ground, opened its huge mouth, sucked all the residue into its mouth, and started chewing.
The body tissues of these snakes, even if they are reduced to slag, still contain extraordinary energy, which is a great tonic for it.
In the sky above, the black smoke representing the snake consciousness has become looming after losing its physical support, and is about to disappear.
Under the instinct of survival, the black smoke immediately drifted in the direction of the snake's body. As long as you can return to your true body as soon as possible, this consciousness can still be preserved.
It's a pity that if it were so easy to transfer the mind, it wouldn't have been trapped for hundreds of thousands of years.
The black smoke is swimming slower and slower, and the black air all over the body is dissipating rapidly, becoming smaller and smaller at a speed visible to the naked eye.
This body of consciousness preparing to escape from prison occupies more than 90% of the snake's total consciousness! This is not a small number. Once this part of the mind disappears, the time it takes to recover will be hundreds of thousands of years. The snake body will be in a state of confusion for an extremely long time in the future.
The black smoke looked unwillingly at the body that was still a hundred meters away. It wanted to try hard to float over, but it had no strength. It drifted to the ground, and its consciousness gradually fell into blur.
In a daze, it seemed to feel someone coming over, and a hand carefully lifted it up.
After a few seconds, it suddenly felt like it was being thrown into a warm place. The surrounding atmosphere made it feel extremely familiar, but also somewhat inexplicably resistant. The disappearing thoughts on the body surface quickly regrouped, allowing Hei Yan to gradually regain his energy.
When the snake-like mind opened its eyes again, what greeted it was a big human face in the sky, hundreds of times larger than its size. At this time, it was smiling and waving to it: "Great. Now, Xiaoba, we don’t have to separate anymore, we can always be together!”
"..."
Gu She was speechless. He had never been so speechless in his life.
After four thousand years of careful planning and planning to escape from prison, he ended up going from one cage to another...
Moreover, it has already felt that the remaining part of its consciousness is being forcibly bound to the other person's life.
This is not good news for it, because it means that its consciousness will be completely dependent on this person's existence in the future.
If it wants to survive, it must ensure the survival of this person. This is a kind of kidnapping in disguise.
"Phew, this seal is complete..."
The Djinn took back the hand that was placed on the clockkeeper's head and wiped the sweat from his forehead. He was very tired.
"So what's going on now?" the watcher asked, scratching his head.
He had just been pulled over by the herb gatherer and the djinn without knowing it. The two men quickly commanded him to perform a series of incomprehensible operations, and then the snake's consciousness appeared in his mind.
This situation is somewhat similar to the previous connection between his consciousness and Gu Snake in the barrier. The difference is that now the two parties have switched places. Gu Snake has become the little one sealed in the central barrier, and he has become the center of the conscious world.
"From now on, the consciousness of the snake will reside in your body and share life with you. If you die, its consciousness will also disappear."
The Djinn God explained: "Of course, even if it is just consciousness, it is the consciousness of a snake. It still contains amazing potential, but there is no body for it to develop. If you lend it your body, it can still exert enough potential." Amazing fighting ability."
"Ah? Then am I not a Jinchuuriki now?" The watcher's eyes lit up.
"Jinchuriki?" The lamp god looked at him in confusion, unable to understand the meaning of this word.
"Okay, if I didn't ask, let's change the question, can I sleep normally in the future?"
"Of course. Although your consciousnesses are still connected now, the snake has become the host party. You are the master of the conscious world and can unilaterally block its consciousness. If you still maintain the previous communication habits, it should be the same in the future. It begs you to work and rest normally." The Djinn God said, hesitating for a moment, and then added: "However, because it lives in your body and is not its own body after all, its consciousness will still slowly dissipate over time. , so you need to feed it some negative emotions regularly as an energy supplement.”
"Negative emotions? Feeding?" The watcher was a little confused: "How to feed?"
"Simple, you just need to do something bad regularly, and your emotions will be directly transmitted to it." The Djinn said nonchalantly.
"Ah... It's too difficult for me to take the initiative to do bad things. I'm a well-intentioned clone... Since you already knew this, why are you looking for me? Wouldn't it be more appropriate to find him as a Jinchuuriki?" The watchman pointed to the herb gatherer on the side.
"You think anyone can?"
The herb collector shook his head: "Even if it has lost its body now and can no longer engage in 'prison escape', the mental impact on the host body will still exist. Just like the previous Goblin King, over time, its thoughts will be subtle. It’s been eaten away by snakes, and in this regard, only you here can bear it.”
"So you planned to let me be the Jinchuuriki from the beginning?" The watcher looked at him in surprise.
He had synchronized his memory with Mu You just now, so he knew the plan to capture the snake. The herb collector had been planning it since the beginning of this era. Obviously, he had already thought of everything at that time and used the watchman as a future capture tool. Container after the snake.
"No, you are just an alternative at the beginning. It depends on your performance. If you can still keep your will pure under the erosion of the snake's consciousness for four thousand years, it proves that you have the ability to be a container. Otherwise, I will Then look for other containers, or cancel the plan in advance." The herb collector said calmly.
"You are so heartless. I treat you as my own brother, but you treat me as a chess piece?" The watchman rushed forward, grabbed the medicine collector by his collar and shook him to question.
The herb gatherer was as tall as a child compared to the watchman. At this moment, his head was shaking like a rattle, but he insisted on keeping silent, holding his hands in front of his chest, maintaining a cold expression.
Mu You ignored the fight between the two clones. When the battle was over, he was relieved and sat down against the mountain wall.
Now that the seal has been successfully strengthened, Gu Snake has lost most of his consciousness. There is no need for a watchman to continue to stay here as a guard. With the current condition of the seal, at least until the next season of fear, Gu Snake will not be able to No matter how stormy it is.
A dark fur ball emerged from the shadow next to him. It was the Shadow Pom Ball.
The shadow pom-pom swam to his hand and rubbed against his palm, but it was still chewing hard on the undigested food in its mouth.
Mu You looked a little strange, wasn't it just a few mouthfuls of dust? Why haven't you finished eating in so long?
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Shadow Pom Pom suddenly stopped chewing, as if he was choked, puffed up his cheeks, opened his mouth, and after brewing for a long time, spit out a piece of scales the size of a fingertip.
Shadow Pom Ball obviously spent a lot of effort to spit out the scale. After spitting out, his body immediately collapsed next to Mu You, looking weak.
Mu You was surprised to see that what it swallowed were the 'ashes' after the death of the snake. It was supposed that all the forms of the black snake had been torn into dust by the wind, but it could still be preserved in the wind burial cannon. What came down?
Mu You hurriedly picked up the scale and took a look.
This scale is undoubtedly one of the scales of a snake, but its appearance is different from the snakes he has seen before. The whole body of the snake is dark black, but this scale is transparent and milky white. It is said that it is a snake scale, but it is more like a snake scale. It is an ornament carved from white jade.
At this time, the omniscient crystal also fed back information about this thing.
[Snake's reverse scales: One of the few reverse scales on the snake's body, it has almost unlimited hardness and is indestructible.
It has the ability to automatically absorb the holder's negative emotions and store them. The stored negative emotions can be used as 'emotional bombs' to kill enemies. 】
"Ni Lin..."
Mu You was surprised. Conceptually, reverse scales are scales that grow upside down under the neck of a snake or dragon. Among the hundreds of thousands of scales on a dragon, only one or a few may be born, which is undoubtedly extremely rare. s things.
He didn't expect that such a small snake incarnation would actually have a reverse scale condensed on it?
It's no wonder that this thing can be well preserved under the Wind Burial Cannon. This reverse scale is born with the property of being 'indestructible'.
As for the effect, it is quite impressive. It can automatically absorb negative emotions and can also be stored as a means of damaging the enemy.
As soon as he saw this effect, Mu You immediately thought of the fairy girl.
The jealousy of the fairy girl is obviously a kind of negative emotion, so it is said that as long as you carry this scale, the jealousy will be automatically absorbed as soon as it is generated. From now on, the jealousy of the fairy girl will not only no longer burn blood, but can also give this thing Recharge!
Mu You immediately stood up and wanted to find the fairy girl to test it out.
However, when he tried to feel the elf girl's position, he suddenly paused.
He actually couldn't sense the existence of the fairy girl at all!
There are only two possibilities for this situation, one is that the contractor is dead, and the other is that the fairy girl unilaterally breaks the contract with him.
But no matter which one, as long as the contract is broken, the deviation value bonus given to him by the fairy girl will also disappear. Without the suppression of the fairy girl, the influence of the poison of chaos will automatically appear, so it is said that his current deviation value It should be improving rapidly.
However, Mu You took a look at the order situation in his body, and found that it was still pure white, and the deviation value was steadily maintained at zero, without any upward trend.
"Could it be..."
Mu You has already thought of a possibility.
The other party broke the contract one-way, but before breaking it, she first transferred all the poison of chaos to herself...
Mu You couldn't help but frown, feeling empty in his heart, as if he had lost something important.
Not everyone can bear the poison of chaos. Mu You can barely resist it because he is a descendant of order. If others were poisoned by this poison, they would not even have a chance to resist and could only watch helplessly being swallowed up.
If she had really shouldered all the poison of chaos alone, then she would now...
…
Half an hour later.
Mu You and his party appeared on the desert at the entrance of the dark cave.
Looking around, several cities in the distance have turned into a sea of fire.
At the same time, the sky was filled with mist, and drizzle kept falling. The rain blocked the spread of the fire, and smoke rose in many places, making the entire Sky City look hazy.
Mu You looked at the dark clouds above his head that were obviously condensed by magic. He stretched out his hand to catch a few drops of rainwater and put it into his mouth to taste.
After possessing the memory of a medicine collector, Mu You easily identified the ingredients of the potion. The rainwater was mixed with both sweet potion and forgetting potion.
The sweet potion is harmless to humans, but the effect of the amnesia potion is not small. Being soaked in it will cause the creature to forget the memory of the recent period.
Fortunately, perhaps because the area where it rained was too large, the concentration of the two magic potions was not high, which greatly weakened the effectiveness. If the strength is sufficient, a short period of rain will not have any impact.
The herb collector behind him had already consciously taken out a few umbrellas and distributed them to everyone.
"Tina hates getting wet..."
Tina shivered when she saw the raindrops flying in the sky. She hurriedly shook off the rainwater on her wings and quickly flew under the umbrella held by the watchman to hide from the rain.
"It seems Linglong did a good job. The riots in the city should have stopped for the time being." The herb collector said.
When he told Linglong, in addition to preparing a large amount of sweet potions, he also prepared a batch of forgetting potions. Linglong obviously understood what he meant, and mixed the two medicines into the rainwater with weather spells, and landed them on a large area throughout the city.
People and goblins who are soaked by the rain will soon forget everything that happened today, and those goblins that are becoming weird will temporarily return to normal after being washed by the sweet potion.
"However, the effect of the diluted sweet medicine will not last long. The problem here must be solved within five hours." The herb collector said.
Then the group of people started to split up.
The others took the map fragments and went to meet Linglong, while Mu You left alone to find the fairy girl.
He can no longer know the location of the fairy girl now, but if he relies on guessing, he can immediately think of several locations.
An hour later, Mu You flew to the edge of the Bitter Garden.
What appeared in front of us was a large garbage dump, filled with the smell of decay and fishy smell. Even the sweet rain in the sky could not cover up the smell here.
Mu You walked into the garbage dump. Among the garbage on the ground, fleshy worms could be seen everywhere, crawling blankly among the garbage and filth everywhere. Each one looked weird, but there was no black energy on their bodies. No aggression was shown either.
Mu You knew that these were actually fairies that had turned into monsters, but with the help of sweet potion, the monsterization was forcibly stopped and they were slowly turning back into monsters.
Mu You quickly scanned the worms one after another, and his eyes quickly focused on one of them.
This worm seemed to be no different from other bugs, but the blue features revealed in many parts of its body allowed Mu You to recognize it at a glance.
Mu You walked up to the worm.
"Wow……"
Sensing Mu You's approach, the worm suddenly made sounds like a baby crying, emerged from the mud and garbage, and wriggled towards him with difficulty.
Mu You reached out and stroked the worm's head, but the worm seemed to regard his hand as food, swallowed it with its mouth open, and bit hard, but because it had no teeth, it seemed like it was just sucking.
Mu You sighed, took out his hand, and soothed the worm's head.
The reason why he was able to confirm that this was the fairy girl was because at this moment, from the perspective of Order, the whole body of the worm had been completely swallowed up in red.
Sure enough, the fairy girl helped him bear the poison of chaos, but the price was that he became a chaotic creature irreversibly.
The worm seemed to sense his kindness and stopped biting him. Instead, it moved closer to him, wanting to hold him in its arms.
Muyou shook his head, took out the archiver, and brought the archiver close to the worm.
Now the deviation in the fairy girl has already exceeded the upper limit, and it can no longer be repaired by the pen of order. The only way is to use the archiver.
When they were about to survive the Great Disaster, Tina Fairy Girl and Gargamel also saved their states in the archiver once in order to preserve their memories.
Now as long as they touch the archiver, they can immediately restore all characteristics to the state when they were archived, and even the deviations that are now messed up can be reversed.
"Wow……"
Worm didn't know what this metal short stick was, so Mu You handed it to him and subconsciously caught it and held it in his arms.
The moment it came into contact with the short metal stick, the two-meter-high worm immediately began to shrink rapidly. In just a few seconds, it shrank into a crystal cocoon the size of a palm and fell to the ground.
Inside the cocoon, there is a curled-up caterpillar sealed, its whole body emitting a faint blue shimmer, and there are still a few tears hanging from the corners of its eyes.
Mu You hurriedly felt it, and sure enough, the contract between him and the fairy girl had been re-established, and the poison of chaos returned together, but the difference was that this time, the fairy girl became the body suffering from the poison of chaos, and he became A contractor who helps the fairy girl share the mistakes.
"You have protected me for four thousand years, so for the next four thousand years, I will protect you..."
Mu You carefully picked up the crystal cocoon and washed away the dirt and dust with clean water.
When everything returns to the archive, it means that she no longer has the memory of the next four thousand years. When she hatches into a fairy again in the future, everything will start from scratch.
