Seeing that the old box bones were burned to death and no longer had the ability to be a demon, Gu Beilin could no longer give up.
Stopping the spiritual power of Yu Shen, he threw the box in front of the soul body: "Where are your bones?"
Only the soul remains of the old box bones, which exists in the form of a translucent soul body. It is very light and can float.
But also because it exists as a soul, its face and facial features have not rotted away with the erosion of the body. They retain the appearance of when it was still a human, and even its expression and eyes can be seen.
The moment Old Box Bone saw the box, his eyes were dull, as if he was shocked. His eyes slowly turned to fear, then sadness and pain: "I...I am in such a It has been in the thing for more than three hundred years... It has no body, it doesn't look like a person..."
It looked at Gu Beilin, and then at its own transparent soul body, as if it was only at this moment that it truly realized that it had been dead for many years.
Gu Beilin neither sympathized with nor ridiculed irrelevant people. He just said pertinently: "You haven't been human for a long time."
"I know, I know." It just didn't want to believe it. It didn't want to believe that it had lived like this for three hundred years.
"You just said you also want to eat meat, how can you still eat like this?" Gu Beilin raised his eyebrows with a probing look in his eyes.
"I...I...haha, I'm just saying that I can't eat it. I can't digest it even if I eat it." In fact, the old box bone was threatening Gu Beilin just now. It originally wanted to give the contractor a blow. It's best to scare it, so that it can have greater confidence to negotiate terms, control the contractor to do as it says, and let it go free as soon as possible.
It didn't expect that this pretty boy was not so scary.
Jiu Hegu's tone was a little guilty: "I just want to say hello to you. We have to go together after all. Do you know where the Mintai Building is? Let's go quickly. If you are in this game's threshold formation There are others among them, and if they arrive too late, the information might be taken away."
Gu Beilin knew that it was changing the subject. He hid his eyes and did not point out the old box bones. He said, "Isn't that a place where tasks are released?"
"It's a place where tasks are released. There are many tasks, and everyone who goes there gets different ones, but the information is fixed. There is only so much information about the tasks. Everyone can get three. Some people's tasks originally only require To get one, but he left early, in order to prevent future generations from snatching the opportunity away from him, he would use up the remaining two opportunities to obtain information, and those behind him might miss important information about their mission."
This is a life-and-death place. Not everyone is a silly boy like Li Shuo who has no experience in the world, and not everyone is accompanied by elders like Gu Beilin to experience. More people who come to Linbai Domain are They are desperate desperadoes, greedy and vicious people. If they want to survive, they want treasures from heaven and earth.
Thinking of Qin Qin, Gu Beilin felt anxious. The threshold array had been opened and he hadn't found Qin Qin yet. Could it be that Qin Qin had not entered the same threshold array with him?
Compared with Qin Qin, Gu Beilin should indeed worry about himself first, but even though he knew it, he still couldn't help it.
Excessive care and concern is inherently a chaos that abandons reason.
Gu Beilin put away the Yushen. He had indeed sensed the direction of Mintai Tower. Now that he couldn't find Qin Qin, he could only go to Mintai Tower. If Qin Qin was at this threshold, he would also go there, and then he would go there. We will meet, if not...
Gu Beilin looked at the blurry skyline in the distance and asked Jiuxinggu: "How did you die in the first place?"
Jiu Hegu was silent for a while before replying: "I don't remember... It's been too long. It was a long, long time ago. I just remember that I came in with a few people and then got separated. I walked alone in a deserted place." Maybe they were starved to death, maybe they were killed by something, or maybe they were trapped inside.”
The Threshold Array is a fog from which there is no way out. For those who first get involved with it, it is the incarnation of despair. It is completely white and silent, like a secret room box that can drive people crazy, with no escape. There is no way around it.
Despair, hunger, cold, strange beasts, disasters...
But even if they die inside, they cannot be freed. Their souls are trapped inside for life after life. Unless someone excavates the fossils of their bones, they will never be able to see the outside world.
These old bones are all people who died in this threshold array. In order to be free, they will relive the nightmare again and walk the same path again in front of this silent monster.
"Then what? How long did you lose consciousness after you died?" Gu Beilin let it float in front of him. He was not afraid of the old box bone playing tricks. As it said, it was not good for anyone.
Old Box Bone's soul trembled when it heard this. Even if only the soul was left, one could still see the subconscious fear in the trembling. It said: "Never."
The voice of the old box bone was calm, but it was by no means so peaceful when I first experienced this.
"My consciousness was always awake from the beginning to the end. I didn't feel anything at the time, until I found myself suddenly floating up, and then I looked down and saw my body. I always thought it was just a mirror image, after all, it was a ghost There are so many strange things in the place, maybe I am the real one. But I saw it was rotten."
Old Box Bone turned his head: "But I have always been like this. After that, it will be a long, long time. I can go to any place in this threshold array, float to the sky, swim to the bottom of the river, But I just couldn’t get out. Then, someone broke in. They didn’t transform into a soul like me like those people before, but dug up my fossilized bones. I was taken out.”
"You said you haven't been able to get out?" Gu Beilin squinted his eyes to shield himself from the wind and sand. He had always had a question, how did the old box bone know the way out? If they can't get out, they shouldn't be able to guide future generations.
"I... I can take you out now anyway." Old Box Bone hesitated and turned back: "I can't say the reason."
There is something else inside. Gu Beilin has an intuition that there is definitely something behind it.
"Then tell me something you can tell." Gu Beilin didn't embarrass it. He knew that he wouldn't be able to ask anything: "For example, what are the nature of those tasks?"
"Everything is possible, including grabbing some treasures from alien beasts, helping a land to quell natural disasters, and helping certain people in the threshold formation. There are difficult and easy tasks, and the rewards are also different. Difficult tasks have big rewards, and simple rewards few."
Jiu Hegu paused: "Actually, this is no longer just a threshold formation. The threshold formation is now gaining more and more power. It has a faint tendency to annex the first secret realm. Your threshold formation this time It’s so fierce, I guess after leaving the threshold formation, you won’t have the first secret realm anymore, it has already merged with the first secret realm.”
All kinds of things in Linbai Domain seem to be alive. They are fighting endlessly. The weak eat the strong, the new ones, the eliminated ones, the ones who come from behind, and those who firmly dominate the first place. Everything, regardless of whether there is life or not, the strong eats the strong. The strong live, the weak die.
