Chapter 155: Minotaur... Breaking into... Imprisonment at Night
The night is like the deep eyes of a wolf.
In the Xuling County prison, Ma Liang leaned against the cold wall, lowering his head in silence.
Today he cooperated very well and explained all his experiences.
The people from Chaotianque asked specifically about the location of the mysterious cave, but unfortunately he knew nothing about it and it was impossible for him to find it based on his memory.
Without the magic pen, he is of little use and can only wait for the verdict.
Because of this, his supervision was not strict.
At midnight, a figure suddenly appeared in the prison.
He seemed to have passed through the wall without making any sound.
Ma Liang was startled and looked at the person in front of him.
A middle-aged man with a kind face, who looked like the farmers living next door and had a familiar temperament, but Ma Liang did not know him at all.
"who?"
He screamed in fear and wanted to call for help.
The man smiled and said, "Don't you recognize me?"
Ma Liang was suspicious: "Have we met before?"
"Maybe you'll get to know each other this way."
The man thought about it, wiped his face, and in an instant, a human head turned into a bull's head!
With a pair of curved horns pointing upwards, eyes like copper bells, huge nostrils, and traces of a nose ring on the tip, it clearly looks like an old ox that has become a spirit.
Ma Liang's eyes trembled, and he couldn't help but shout in disbelief: "You are... Lao Huang?"
Lao Huang is the name of his old yellow cow.
"It's me." The minotaur's voice was muffled, but still honest.
Looking at Ma Liang, its face showed a very human expression of guilt...
"I didn't expect you to become like this."
Ma Liang smiled bitterly: "I don't blame you...it's just that you are now...have you become a spirit?"
"Ah." The Minotaur sighed, "It's a long story."
As he spoke, he walked over and put one hand on Ma Liang's head.
Ma Liang let him get closer. He had been a lonely child since childhood and had always regarded this old ox as his closest relative.
Of course, that was before Mo Xian appeared...
As Lao Huang placed his hand on his head, he suddenly felt a warm current flowing into his head.
call out--
In a blink of an eye, he found that his clothes had become particularly loose.
No……
It was his body that had become smaller! He looked left and right, and felt around.
Then, he asked with more surprise than joy: "Why did I become so small again?"
The old cow was stunned: "You don't like to become smaller?"
Ma Liang blinked, "I think it would be better if it were a little bigger..."
"How big?"
"At least eighteen..."
The old cow scratched his head in a simple and honest manner, "It's fine if you want me to share my life span with you, but if I take it away, that would be an evil practice, and I won't do that."
"Ah..." Ma Liang let out a long sigh.
The Minotaur said, "You will grow up slowly. In a few years, you will be eighteen."
"That's the only way."
Ma Liang looked like a skinny little shepherd boy with a dark complexion. Although he was about eleven or twelve years old, he looked like eight or nine years old.
If there is anything special about him, it is that his eyes reveal a maturity that is extremely inconsistent with his age.
On the contrary, his original middle-aged appearance seems to be more in line with this look.
He looked at the minotaur again hopefully: "Can you take me out?"
"Of course." The Minotaur held the skinny boy under his arm, "You must follow me."
"Then... can you find Mo Xian, the woman I drew?" Little Ma Liang shouted again.
"Yes, we are going to find her." The Minotaur touched his head.
Then, it used its horns to ram the wall, as if trying to poke two holes in it, but the next second, it appeared in another cell with the child in its arms.
The place where Mo Xian was imprisoned was not far from Ma Liang. Because she was no different from an ordinary person, the guards were not very strict.
She was surprised to see the minotaur.
When she saw Ma Liang, she was delighted again. She had seen Ma Liang like this before, and when she saw him transformed, she didn't know whether to be surprised or happy.
"Master, you... have become so small again?"
"Yes." Ma Liang answered with a smile, and then quickly said: "But don't worry, I will be eighteen in a few years..."
"Pah." Mo Xian spat with a red face.
The minotaur over there looked confused.
It feels like they are speaking in riddles.
Ma Liang asked, "Old Huang, can you take Mo Xian with you?"
"Take her away?" The Minotaur was stunned for a moment, "Aren't you going to kill her?"
Ma Liang was shocked.
Mo Xian's expression suddenly became relieved, and he sighed softly and said, "It should have been done long ago."
Ma Liang asked angrily, “What do you mean?”
The Minotaur said, "She is a living being you drew. As long as she lives one day, it is your life span that is used up."
"I'm not afraid!" Ma Liang shouted, "I want to stay with Mo Xian!"
It was a bit strange to hear these words coming from a child, but he was very serious about them.
"But..." The Minotaur hesitated, "You could have lived for seventy or eighty years, but with her, you can only live for thirty or forty years. Are you willing to do that?"
"Put me down..."
Ma Liang did not answer. He struggled to jump out of the minotaur's armpit and came in front of Mo Xian.
A little shepherd boy, with a dirty face and wearing loose and ill-fitting clothes, was looking at the beautiful woman in front of him.
"Mo Xian... I am willing to give you half of my life, because I feel that being with you is happier and more meaningful than living a life alone..."
He stared at the woman with his eyes: "I know that if I don't explain it to you today, you will commit suicide in the future. But you have to know that if you die, I will no longer have the courage to live alone... Are you willing to be brave and spend this life with me?"
Mo Xian's eyes were suddenly blurred by tears.
Behind them, the minotaur looked at them and scratched his head in confusion.
Ma Liang and I have been together day and night for more than ten years, but why do I feel... not as good as this woman and him these few days? Damn it.
A little sour.
…
Li Chu returned to Deyun Temple but did not bring back the magic pen, and Yu Qian'an was visibly disappointed.
Of course, that didn't stop him from impatiently pulling his apprentice and saying, "Take a photo, take a photo."
After listening to Li Chu’s account of what he had seen and heard over the past two days.
He smiled slightly: "When I heard them say that, I thought, how could there be such a magical pen? It turns out to be a flower pen..."
"Flower pen?"
"It is said that when the world was first created, there was a sacred tree called 'Flower Willow'."
"The Flower-Bearing Pen is a magical tool made by an immortal using a branch of the Flower-Bearing Willow. Since it is a magical tool, it can only be activated by immortal power. If ordinary people want to use it, they have to consume their lifespan. It is said that writing can make it come true, but in fact, it also depends on whether you have enough lifespan."
"Moreover, the creatures drawn will share your lifespan. In fact, there are many restrictions, and it is not that magical."
Afterwards, Li Chu talked about the incident of the magic pen being taken away by Taoist Sang.
Yu Qian'an smiled disdainfully again, "What master is his senior friend? He must be a demon Taoist, right? This immortal weapon was originally in the 'Shenxu' of the Four Great Immortal Hidden Lands, and was later accidentally obtained by a demon Taoist. I heard that the demon Taoist has been dead for many years. The place that the little shepherd boy entered was probably the secret place of the demon Taoist. But why was he able to enter... maybe there is some connection."
"As for that Taoist Sang... I've never heard of him. I guess he's just a traitor. Next time you see someone who dares to snatch treasures from us, just chop him with your sword and try."
When the old Taoist priest talked about the people in the martial arts world, he seemed to look down on the world.
Li Chu didn't know how to explain to the master. The treasure had nothing to do with us... and it wasn't taken from us...
At this time.
A strange masked man broke into Deyun Temple in a hurry.
Li Chu stood up and looked at him warily, "Who is it?"
"It's me." The man showed the medicine box slung around his waist.
"Little Miracle Doctor?" Li Chu was surprised and pointed at him: "What are you doing..."
"Two pieces of news, one good and one bad."
The young doctor put down the medicine box, sat down, and said, "The good news is that I have successfully refined the Creation Pill."
"Um……"
"The bad news is..."
As he spoke, the young doctor untied the mask, revealing a handsome face, but with a strange... pig nose on it.
"I can't seem to make an antidote..."
Congratulations to TES for coming back from 2-0 down to 3-0. My youth almost came back, but luckily we got beaten again...
