"interesting."
Mi Qing thought of the white bones.
The vision began when Ji Rulin received the bones. He first heard a sound, and then disappeared without a sound.
"Find the bones," Mi Qing gave the order, and by the way, even the ghosts were released.
Guisheng looked surprised, "Mom, I didn't see how Admiral Ji disappeared in the file just now." To be precise, it seemed that he subconsciously ignored Ji Rulin at that moment.
When he realized that Ji Rulin had disappeared, it was also when Mi Qing noticed it.
Mi Qing was thoughtful and wanted to shake Sansan out. But she thought about it and finally came up with the spirit in the painting. The spirit in the painting had mentioned a lot of useful information in the Rusty Iron Blood City before, although the beginning of each sentence was just a rumor.
"Long time no see, Miss Mi's strength has improved again," the spirit in the painting appeared again, and her greetings were more fluent than last time.
Mi Qing nodded in greeting and got straight to the point, "Have you ever heard of the Labyrinth of Gods?"
"The Labyrinth of Gods? Let me think about it..." The spirit in the painting followed Mi Qing, thought for a moment, and said: "It is rumored that the Labyrinth of Gods is a place for sacrifice by the Yao people."
Guisheng muttered, "Rumors, rumors...rumors again."
The spirit in the painting, like last time, still ignored Guisheng, "At the same time, it is also the burial place of the Yao people."
"Yao tribe?"
Another unheard of race, Mi Qing was curious.
The spirit in the painting: "It is rumored that the Yao tribe is a soulless tribe. There are bones in life, and wisdom is in the bones. Death has no bones, and consciousness is in the bones."
Twelve words, inseparable from the bones.
Mi Qing's thoughts were running at high speed as he listened to the painting's words. In short, "They don't have brains?"
Spirit in the painting: "...You can say that. But their bones all have self-awareness."
"Oh," Mi Qing couldn't be realistic about this, "Say something useful."
The spirit in the painting skipped the useless explanation and directly mentioned the news that Mi Qing wanted to know, "It is rumored that the Labyrinth of Prayer to Gods is a place of worship for the Yao people and a burial place for their bones. Once a spirit of the Yao people dies, the deceased will be killed after death. At that time, they turned into white bones. The white bones walked into the maze of praying to the gods on their own, and then allowed the living spirits of the Yao tribe to sense the existence of the gods."
"It is rumored that the Labyrinth of Prayer to Gods has a place of truth and illusion."
Mi Qing paused.
One is real and the other is illusion, so they are now in the imaginary maze of praying to gods?
"What would have happened if the bones of the Yao tribe hadn't entered this place?"
The Spirit in the Painting: "It is rumored that he will be led into the real labyrinth of praying to gods. As for the other things, I don't know."
Guisheng muttered, "You've said so much, why don't you know the key information?"
The spirit in the painting looked at Guisheng for the first time and said with a smile, "Because you don't deserve it."
Guisheng: "...Fuck! Mom, he scolded me!"
He couldn't bear such grievance and tried to get Mi Qing to find a place for him.
Mi Qing was still thinking about something else, so he only responded perfunctorily, "Oh."
Guisheng: "Huh?! Mom, you don't love me anymore!"
Mi Qing pushed Guisheng's head away and turned to ask the spirit in the painting, "What should I do if I want to go to the Labyrinth of the True Prayer God?"
The spirit in the painting turned its scroll and finally said: "Although I have lived longer, I still don't know how a living person can enter the Labyrinth of the True Prayer God. After all, all those who enter the Labyrinth of the True Prayer God are white bones."
Mi Qing's pupils shrank.
She got it.
Only by giving up one's flesh and blood can one enter the labyrinth of true prayer.
Guisheng broke away from Mi Qing's hand, still aggrieved, "Mom, this is too much. I thought I was your little baby..."
Before he finished speaking, Mi Qing pressed Tianling Gai to force him to shut up.
The spirit in the painting: "If a living person enters the labyrinth of true prayer to God, it is a dead end."
Mi Qing pondered. After a while, she thanked the spirit in the painting for the message, and then put the spirit away in the painting again.
She hesitated.
It is beyond human endurance for a living person to give up his flesh and blood.
Is it worth it for Ji Rulin?
"Mom, Admiral Ji left a lot of things here." Seeing Mi Qing's serious face, Guisheng didn't dare to make a fuss anymore and talk about things he had forgotten before.
"What?" Mi Qing came to her senses.
Guisheng said: "It's a storage box. There are many of them, and they are said to be safe in small red coffins. He also said that there is a good thing in it, and he hopes mom can take it out."
Mi Qing was stunned.
So early on, Ji Rulin unilaterally believed that she could get out alive?
"Not only that, he also left two tubes of medicine. One is a powerful blood-replenishing tube, and the other is a powerful life-saving tube. He said that as long as he has a breath, he can save his life." Guisheng had taken inventory before, and he remembered these two tubes of medicine as new. Because Ji Rulin specifically emphasized it before leaving.
But there were so many things going on before, and Ji Rulin was still there, he forgot about it.
Mi Qing had heard of these two potions, but had never used them.
The medicine comes from the military department, and because it is rare, it is only circulated within the military department. A tube of medicine has a price but no market.
Mi Qing sighed.
She can endure all the bad, but cannot ignore the good.
Therefore, she had to go and save people herself.
"mom?"
Guisheng was a little confused when he saw Mi Qing summoning the headless corpse.
But what Mi Qing did next made him stunned.
"Mom?! You are crazy!!!"
She was forcibly cutting off the flesh and blood of the headless corpse!
The headless corpse and Mi Qing are from the same lineage and have the same mind. Any force acting on the headless corpse will also be reflected on Mi Qing's body.
Mi Qing was sweating profusely, but her hands were still steady.
Ling Chi's headless body with a rusty ax was more painful than imagined.
Guisheng tried to stop him, "Mom? Stop! What are you going to do? Yes... bones! Let's find a new one! Don't go crazy!"
The Yin energy was strong and he began to search for new bones in the labyrinth passages extending in all directions.
But after walking through all the maze passages floating on the seabed, he still found no new bones. He was about to cry as he rummaged through his army of ghosts.
His army of ghosts are all ghosts, without flesh or bones.
"Mom, look for it in the files! There might be bones there!"
It hurts so much.
Mi Qing closed her eyes and gasped.
After about a minute, she replied, "No."
There are no spirits like bones in her file.
Seeing her raise her hand and move again, Guisheng realized that in just four minutes, her whole body seemed to be dug out of the water. His eyes turned black, and the yin energy almost eroded the whites of his eyes, "No...it's not worth it."
Mi Qing smiled rarely, silent but brilliantly.
"Maybe, but I want to do it."
Some things probably cannot be judged by whether they are worth it or not.
She paused slightly, but her hands continued to move.
A headless corpse with all its flesh and blood removed.
Guisheng burst into tears, and his yin energy gathered into tears, which kept flowing. At the end of his crying, he started to hiccup.
Mi Qing didn't want to talk, but it was the first time he saw Guisheng cry like this, and he still cried for her. She felt that she needed to be comforted.
The two petals in the long hair behind her fell off and floated in front of Guisheng, with a clear purpose.
Guisheng's eyes were filled with tears. When he saw the two-petal flower, he also saw the smiling Mi Qing, "I don't want it!"
For the first time, he rejected the two-petal flower.
Mi Qing was surprised.
In the past, Guisheng always wanted to get a two-petal flower. Now, do you just reject the two-petal flower that comes to your door?
She was slightly confused, but seemed to feel something in her heart.
