The black bird felt a little guilty when she saw it. He turned his head slightly to one side, then suddenly turned his head back when he thought of something.
"I've said everything I can, and I've said what I can't. Now can you return that box to me?"
Qingyan raised her eyebrows, "When did I say that I would return the box to you after you said so? I just said that if you don't tell me, I will pluck all your hair and break your neck." , but did not use this box as an exchange."
Blackbird looked at her in disbelief, "There's no deep hatred between us, so there's no need for it? Yes, I captured your soul without your permission, but I didn't hurt you either!
And the things in that box are of no use to you. Why don't you return it to me and I'll tell you the location and mechanism of the treasure. How about you pick a few things you like and take them away? "
Qingyan didn't believe this at all, "I am in the state of a soul now. Even if you give me the treasure, how can I take it away? Are you lying to a child? Even a three-year-old child will not believe what you say. "
After his lie was exposed, Blackbird blinked his mung bean-sized eyes in embarrassment. He opened his mouth and didn't say anything else. He just stared longingly at the place where Qingyan placed the box.
Qingyan looked at its pitiful appearance and didn't feel any pity at all. The black bird that always looked like a crow couldn't arouse her pity even if it was pitiful.
Not to mention the things it did, killing so many innocent people, she couldn't imagine it as a pitiful little animal.
Even if that is the rule set by Yin Jin, human sacrifice was once every ten years before, or at least less. But now it has become once every three years, with three times more people. It can be said that those people all died at its hands. inner.
Although she had no intention of rescuing people in distress, she deeply abhorred such a waste of human life.
If he didn't need the other party to send his soul back now, he would have broken its neck long ago.
And since it is so nervous about the contents of the box, it must be very important to it, so it cannot be given to it. It is just a way to blackmail it into sending itself back, otherwise the other party will make some dirty tricks, and I will not be able to give it to it. I'm going to fold it here.
Although she knew that the other party seemed a little afraid of her and did not dare to do anything with her, she did not dare to take risks rashly.
At this time, Yin Kejing, who had been standing quietly on the side with no sense of presence, suddenly said: "I didn't expect that you would betray me and also want to use my Yin family's treasure as a favor. In this case, you all will sacrifice to me." Taste it!”
Qingyan and Heiniao looked at him in disbelief at the same time. At this time, Yin Kejing was dressed in red and his expression was no longer the ignorant and timid one before. Instead, he had a gloomy face and dark eyes. The fog surges as if it wants to choose someone to eat at any time.
Blackbird shouted: "Quick! Give me the box! Otherwise we will both finish playing!"
Qingyan didn't know what it meant, but she didn't do what it said.
I thought to myself, the bird is still thinking about the box now, it seems that it is indeed very important to it.
Even though she was thinking about this, it didn't affect her movements. She took the black bird and took a few steps back, further away from Yin Kejing.
Yin Kejing put a sneer on his lips and said in a cold tone: "I didn't expect that two thousand years have passed. Anyway, there is no hope of restoring the country. I would rather destroy those treasures than take advantage of outsiders.
You evil beast, not only did you not protect the treasure, you actually used the people in the village as your own sacrifices! You intercepted so much soul power that I lost support and could not be resurrected, so I could only reincarnate. Now I will swallow you, just to compensate for my losses over the years! "That
As he spoke, he opened his hands outwards in a hugging posture, and then the palace began to collapse, shattering into pieces and disappearing into the air.
Then the scene changed and turned into what it looked like before in the underground cemetery.
Qingyan looked down and saw that the three of them were standing on the stone platform before. The Qiongqi carved on the stone platform seemed to be coming to life, rolling like waves.
Qingyan felt bad and immediately ran to the side, trying to jump off the high platform. When she reached the stone platform, she was stopped by an invisible cover.
He quickly asked Black Bird: "What on earth is going on? Send me back quickly!"
She had an intuition that it was very dangerous now, and it was best to get out of here, otherwise she didn't know what would happen.
Blackbird was also very anxious and said quickly: "It's useless. Give me the box, otherwise neither of us will survive!"
The reason why it hates Yin Kejing is because he looks very much like Yin Jin. At that time, it did not absorb his soul, but let his soul serve it in the underground palace just to vent its anger on being signed into a master-servant contract. , but he didn't expect that he would find some clues and actually want to break away from its control.
Now it finally knows why he looks so much like Yin Jin, because he is simply the reincarnation of Yin Jin!
Unexpectedly, he dug a hole and buried himself. Now he must have recovered the memory of his previous life and remembered how to control it with a contract. It couldn't resist at all!
Seeing that Qingyan was unmoved, she could only shout: "Don't be in a daze, come to me! He is the reincarnation of Yin Jin, we are no match at all!"
He is a cultivator himself, and it would be easy for him to devour us. I have a contract with me and I can't resist at all!
I can't hold on to the illusion anymore, and I don't have the energy to send your soul back. Now hurry up and give me that box. That's my inner alchemy. As long as I return to the inner alchemy, it will be in the state of the soul now and want to swallow me. The inner alchemy cannot be done at all. "
Qingyan directly grasped the key point. The inner elixir cannot be swallowed by the opponent, but she can swallow herself. If she wants to use herself to ward off disasters for it, don't even think about it! Let's die together!
Then something suddenly occurred to her, and Qingyan put her hand inside her clothes.
Blackbird's eyes lit up, thinking that she was going to return the inner elixir to him. Unexpectedly, Qingyan did not take out the box, but instead took out a stone with a dazzling light!
As soon as the stone appeared, it illuminated the entire stone chamber as if it were daytime.
Qingyan touched the spirit stone to the black bird to see if it had any effect.
"ah--"
The burning sensation on his body made him scream in agony, and he felt like everything he touched was going to be burned!
"Yin Kejing" on the opposite side was also blinded by the light and took several steps back. In an instant, the shaking of the stone platform stopped, as if everything had returned to calm.
After a while, "Yin Kejing" put down his hand, stared at the spiritual stone in Qingyan's hand, and said with excitement: "It turns out to be a top-grade spiritual stone! Give it to me, and tell me about this spiritual stone." Wherever the mineral vein is, I will let you go!"
She originally thought that the spirit stone would have a restraining effect on him, but she didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, the other party would ask her for the spirit stone with a coveted look on her face. Qingyan was a little dumbfounded. What did she say? Are you here to deliver equipment to others?
Thinking of this, they are ready to put the spirit stone back. This is what they will rely on in future generations and cannot be thrown away.
But thinking about it, he immediately turned around and tried to run under the stone platform again, but this time he jumped off the platform easily.
The previous transparent cover was gone, and when she got off the stone platform, she felt clearly loose, as if some restraint had been loosened. Could it be that the stone platform had a suppressive effect on her soul?
There was no time to think, "Yin Kejing" was already chasing after him.
Qingyan hurriedly ran towards the stone door on the side. The stone door there was closed before, but now it is open. She didn't know if it was because of the chants of the clan leaders and those who had previously opened the door. Didn't she also No matter that much, just run out the door.
It just so happened that she was holding a spiritual stone in one hand to illuminate it, otherwise it would be so dark over there that nothing could be seen.
After Qingyan came over, this side immediately became bright.
There is also a stone platform outside, which is a little smaller than the one inside. There is a row of altar tables in front, with sacrifices such as pigs, cattle and sheep on it, and an incense burner with incense inserted in it, but there is no one there. The clan leader and the clan elders are there. Their souls have left.
Qingyan glanced at the direction and headed towards the other stone door.
I don’t know if it’s because everyone is a spirit, but they didn’t pass through the wall as they imagined, and they didn’t use floating to speed up. Yin Kejing also ran after her in a down-to-earth manner.
Although Qingyan was in a hurry to run away, she did not let go of her hand holding the black bird's wings. As she ran, she asked, "Are you going this way? If you don't want to die, just show me the way. If I catch you, I'll kill you." Throw it out and block it!"
Blackbird did not live up to her expectations and shouted directly: "Right! Go to the right, go to the right, the left is a dead end!"
Qingyan immediately ran to the right. This was a long passage with many large and small stone gates on both sides. She didn't know how they built it back then.
There are only so many people in the village, and this project cannot be completed by that small number of people. If it takes too long, it will be impossible and it will be easily exposed.
Of course, it's possible that there were more of them than there are now. After all, a lot of people were sacrificed.
It is also possible that it was built by craftsmen back then, just like the emperor's tomb. They paid craftsmen to build it, and then killed the craftsmen after the construction was completed, so that no one knew about it.
This Yin Jin is originally a descendant of the Yin Shang royal family, so it is very likely that this is the operation.
Maybe it was because he knew he was a soul, so although he was a little frightened while running, he didn't feel breathless.
While running according to the command of the black bird, he complained to it: "Isn't this the illusion you created? You could just trap him. Why is it so useless?"
Blackbird directed the direction while replying: "Now it is no longer an illusion created by me, now we are at the bottom of the real tomb, but we are still in a spiritual state.
And I can't control him at all. I have a contract with him, and he is the only one who can control me. That means I am in your hands now. Otherwise, I will probably be controlled by him and attack you with him. "
Qingyan almost hit a wall. She looked and saw that she was at the end. There was a passage on the left, so she quickly ran to the left along the passage.
While saying: "You can still talk to me like this now, it means that he has no way to control you at all. Maybe you are overthinking and the contract is gone."
At this time, Black Bird had no choice but to tell the truth, "That's because you have the golden light of merit on your body, and you protect me by the way. Although I feel very uncomfortable around you, you can keep me sane and not be contracted." dominated by power."
Qingyan almost stopped. Listening to the footsteps getting closer and closer behind her, Qingyan quickly started to raise her legs again.
"Golden light of merit? I have golden light of merit and virtue, and you can still capture my soul?"
"Yes, it's not much. If it were more, I wouldn't be able to touch you at all, and you'd be swallowed up directly. It's also because of the golden light of merit that I can't force you to exchange souls. You can only do it voluntarily."
Qingyan thought that it might be because of her contract with Xiangxiang. Xiangxiang's space had collected many Buddhist statues with merit, and her parents also said that Xiangxiang relied on merit to cultivate. It seemed that her soul was somewhat contaminated, but it was just not enough to scare these decent ghosts.
"Then why is the golden light of my merit useless to Yin Jin's soul? He doesn't seem to be afraid of me."
Blackbird: "Because this is his reincarnation. Yin Jin's soul has been reincarnated. Yin Kejing has only recovered his memory. He is no longer him and has not done any evil, so he is not afraid of the golden light of merit."
Qingyan: "In other words, it can only restrain evil spirits like you. Then why can he be reincarnated after he killed so many people? Shouldn't he be cast into the eighteenth level of hell and never be reincarnated, or should he be reincarnated? Are you going to be an animal?"
Blackbird: "..."
"Do you have any misunderstandings about the underworld? The underworld is only responsible for extraditing souls for reincarnation. Judgment of crimes is a matter for the human world, and as a member of the royal family, one is blessed with great luck, so the underworld does not dare to neglect it."
Qingyan: "..."
Oh, power is supreme everywhere, even the underworld is not immune.
At this time, a glimmer of light appeared in front. It seemed that it should be the exit of the tomb passage, but it was not sealed.
Come to think of it, they have to worship their ancestors every year and have human sacrifices every three years. The entrance must always be open, otherwise the tomb door would have to be opened every time, which would be very troublesome.
When she was about to reach the door, the last stone door at the end suddenly opened, a flash of red clothes appeared, and "Yin Kejing" appeared in front of them!
Blackbird buried his head in his chest, "It's over, he actually took a shortcut. There is another tomb passage behind the stone door over there. I'm sorry I didn't hear the footsteps behind me just now. It turns out he took a shortcut to block us. Let’s run back!”
Qingyan thought, run back? Aren't we back in the tomb again? We were caught in someone else's jar. This is someone else's tomb, so I must be more familiar with it.
It won't be a problem if this continues, it's better to just be tough!
One hand was still holding the black bird, and the other hand was holding the spirit stone. She didn't know how to absorb the energy in the spirit stone, so she could only try the inner strength and mental method of Wanxiang Fist taught to her by her father.
Unexpectedly, I felt a heat in my hand, and I almost threw the spirit stone!
