"Oh? It's you."
The high priest had never thought that after wandering in the cracks of space for so long, he would meet an old friend as soon as he came out.
Unlike the high priest who was delighted, Chen Chu and Lin Xi were terribly frightened. They were originally preparing to leave, but when they saw that the high priest Chen Chu's ability had almost reached its peak, they immediately flew into the sky.
"Why are you running?" The high priest had not yet completely walked out of the space gap, he raised his hand and cast a curse.
Chen Chu, who had already flown dozens of meters, suddenly had dense black chains growing on his body, and the other end of the black chains was firmly held in the hand of the high priest.
Chen Chu struggled for a few times and found that the chain was very strong. Although it was not completely impossible to break the chain, by the time he broke the chain, the high priest must have completely entered through the space gap. Once he completely entered the Miao village sub-space, neither he nor Lin Yan could escape.
"Lin Tian, you go first." Almost without hesitation, Chen Chu landed on the top of the mountain, and then handed his storage space to Lin Tian. All the insect energy stones were in it.
The chain was a curse, and the high priest only cursed Chen Chu, so the chain only bound Chen Chu.
"But..." Lin Xi.
"Let's go. He may not kill me." Chen Chu pushed Lin Yan and said, "It will be too late if we don't leave now."
Lin Xi also knew that she was no match for the high priest. If the high priest wanted to kill her, he could kill her with just a curse.
Wait, the system seems to have said that it cannot be killed by a curse.
Then what are you afraid of?
When she thought that she couldn't be killed by the curse, Lin Xi's spine straightened immediately, and she even dared to turn around and stare at the high priest. Most of the high priest's body had entered the Miao village, and only half of his shoulder was still stuck in the barrier formed by the boundary snake.
"Hurry up!" Chen Chu saw Lin Nan not moving and urged her anxiously.
"Senior, let's try our luck." Lin Yin turned around and said to Chen Chu.
Chen Chu was stunned. If he didn't run at this time, what was the point of relying on luck? He was just wondering when he heard Lin Yu suddenly shout, "Zhuang Zhou, come out!"
"Ah? It's ruined."
Play with me, play with me, I want you to play with me, okay? What I want is Zhuang Zhou, Zhuang Zhou!
Lin looked back at the high priest who had only one-third of his shoulder left, and decisively gave up the idea of relying on her luck to draw cards. She glanced at Chen Chu, put her right hand into the card pool, and took Chen Chu's hand with her left hand and placed it on her right hand.
"Senior, let's draw the Zhuang Zhou." There was no time to explain at this time, so Lin Yan just said quickly, "I will leave after I finish drawing."
Chen Chu really didn't understand what Lin Nan was doing at this moment, but he just wanted Lin Nan to leave immediately. After hearing what she said, he immediately stopped caring about what Lin Nan was doing and raised his hand to hit her.
"Wait a minute, call Zhuang Zhou. Have you played Honor of Kings? Zhuang Zhou!" Lin Nan reminded.
"...Zhuang Zhou!" Chen Chu gritted his teeth and shouted, while pulling Lin Xi's hand down.
There was a "flapping" sound, which seemed to be the sound of some animal flapping its wings.
"Is it interesting to see a group of people fighting in someone's dream?" Lin Xi, who had been anxious just now, suddenly looked like she had just woken up and was looking at her head lazily.
"Third skill, third skill!" After finishing Zhuang Zhou's fixed lines, Lin Yan desperately used the third skill.
With a "bang", a ripple shook in the air. Chen Chu was standing next to Lin Nan. The ripples naturally wrapped Chen Chu in it. In an instant, the chain that locked Chen Chu disappeared like a bubble.
"It really works! The butterfly is me, I am the butterfly." Lin Yan couldn't control herself and recited another line.
Zhuang Zhou's third skill can help teammates release control. The first thing she thought of when she saw the chain was to release control, so she tried it with the mentality of giving it a try. Unexpectedly, it really worked.
Chen Chu was even more surprised than Lin Xi. He never thought that Lin Xi could remove the chains that the high priest had tied on him. But despite his surprise, he did not delay his escape. As soon as he escaped, Chen Chu took Lin Xi and flew away again, flying towards the Miao village without stopping.
Not long after they flew away, the high priest finally escaped from the space gap and entered the Miao village completely. The moment she stepped in, the whole Miao village suddenly vibrated with a buzzing sound.
"The space is restless." Chen Chu felt the powerful force of space was restless.
"The Miao village is not going to collapse, is it?" Lin asked fearfully.
"It's okay, we'll be out right away." At this time, they had returned to the sky above the Miao village.
In the Miao village, because of the space vibration just now, all the aboriginal spirits came out of their houses. The superpowers who were fighting each other for the energy stone in the square also stopped fighting at this time and carefully observed the surroundings.
As Chen Chu led Lin Ping to dive towards the statue in the center of the square, the lottery box in the lottery system began to shake wildly.
"Pu XX, male, 30 years old, will be trapped to death in the Miao village."
"Cui XX, male, 28 years old, will be trapped to death in the Miao village."
"Han XX, male, 35 years old, said he was trapped to death in the Miao village."
…
The series of deaths of the Zhan Gu in the Miao village made Lin Xi completely stunned.
This occupation was not right. She had been near the statue for so long before and was besieged, but the occupation system did not respond at all. Therefore, there was only one reason for this sudden large-scale occupation, that is, some reason that just appeared caused this result.
Did the high priest kill everyone here?
No, if it was the high priest who killed him, why would the result of the divination system be "trapped to death in the Miao village" instead of "death or being killed"?
Can’t get out?
"The space door can't be opened!"
Lin Yan looked at Chen Chu fiercely and confirmed: "The space door can't be opened?"
Chen Chu said with an unpleasant expression: "Maybe I haven't collected all the energy stones yet. I'll go grab some more."
"Wait a moment." Lin Yan held Chen Chu, "Wait for me to confirm something."
Chen Chu looked at Lin Yan in confusion, and saw Lin Yan rushing towards the psychics who were trying to snatch the energy stone, and shouted in English: "Don't try, the space door can't be opened."
"Ding, congratulations to the host for completing the task of occupying the husks. I will reward you with one point of merit and 0 yuan for the divination."
"Ding, congratulations to the host for completing the task of occupying the husks. I will reward you with one point of merit and 0 yuan for the divination."
…
Lin looked at the merit points that kept increasing, and for the first time she didn't want them. When she told the results of the plot, she only said that the sub-dimensional door couldn't be opened, and didn't say that she was trapped in the Miao village, just to verify whether her guess was right. Now that she has the merit points, there is nothing she can't prove.
Damn, the space door really can't be opened?! Why are my guesses about accidents always so accurate?
"Are you talking nonsense? Don't believe her. She just wants to trick us into not stealing the energy stone." A Korean psychic who could understand English and was quick-witted immediately shouted in English.
"Idiot, if we could get out, we would have gone out just now and would not be waiting for you to rob us!" Lin Xi was in a bad mood and couldn't help but want to curse.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone who could understand English fell silent.
Yes, these two Chinese guys have just reached the exit. If they could open the space door, they could just go out directly. There’s no point talking to them.
"Heong, what did that woman just say?" Someone who didn't understand English began to ask his companions.
"She said the subspace door can't be opened and we're all trapped here," someone explained.
"Ding, congratulations to the host for completing the task of occupying the husks. You will be rewarded with one merit point and 0 yuan for divination." System.
"What? You must be lying. How could the space door not be opened? She must not have enough energy stones in her hands and was afraid that we would snatch them from her, so she said that." Immediately, another smart person "saw through" Lin's intention.
Whether from the perspective of interests or credibility, people were more willing to believe this wise man, so the crowd rushed towards the statue again.
Chen Chu realized that something was wrong, so he picked up Lin Yan and flew again, heading towards the house where the A-level spirit was before, and flew in through the window.
The Korean psychic wanted to chase after them, but was frightened by the spirit that just walked out of the house. At this time, the number of spirits appearing in the Miao village was more than three times that of before.
How come so many spirits appear all of a sudden?
Inside the house, the A-level female spirit had also returned. She glanced at the two people who flew into her house, turned around and walked over.
“#@%#￥……%￥#……” the female spirit said to Lin Nan.
"Wait a minute." Lin took out the ruler, established contact, and asked again, "What did you want to tell me just now?"
"What did you do in the north of the mountain? Why was the Dragon King shaken?" asked the female spirit.
"A person came in from outside the barrier on the north side of the mountain." To the female spirit, the high priest was indeed a person from this secondary dimension.
"Who is it?" asked the female spirit.
"The high priest of the Soul Locking Tower." Lin Xi said.
"Soul-Locking Tower?" Soul-Locking Tower is the name given to the tower that imprisoned the high priest on Earth. It is not an original name in the sub-space, so the female spirit has never heard of it.
"He is a very powerful curser." Lin Yu pointed at Chen Chu and said, "He is even more powerful than him."
The female spirit's dark green eyes suddenly widened, "A person who can travel through space and attract the Dragon King, a level 15 mutant?"
Level 15?
Lin pointed at Chen Chu and asked subconsciously, "What level is he?"
"Less than level 12." said the female spirit.
"!!" The high priest is three levels higher than Senior Chen Chu, but Senior Chen Chu is already S-level. Is the high priest SS-level? No, SSS-level? ?
"Ask her what the space gate is about?" Chen Chu reminded Lin Xi.
Lin asked quickly: "Why can't the space door be opened?"
"What space gate?" the female spirit was puzzled.
Lin Xi was speechless. She and Senior Chen Chu had both overlooked the fact that the spirits in the secondary space had no idea about the space gate.
Lin Yan said to Chen Chu: "They don't know what a space gate is."
陳初蹙了蹙眉，他見這個靈體智商較高，還以為知道些什麽。
“那你怎麽知道空間門打不開的？”陳初雖然相信林媗，但還是想知道原因。
“我占蔔出來的。”林媗道。
占蔔？因為林媗的道具，陳初總是會忽略掉林媗的占蔔異能。
“準确率高嗎？”陳初懷着僥幸問道。
“要麽占不出來，要麽準确率百分百。”
百分百的準确率？先知都不敢這麽說。可陳初知道，林媗不會在這上面說謊。
“這麽說，空間門是怎麽都打不開了？”那就只有第二種辦法了，殺光這裏所有的靈體。
“嗡嗡”
忽然，十幾只金色的光點忽然浮現，包裹在他們兩人周圍。光點之外，剛剛還和他們說着話的女靈體已經退到了房間的門口，正手持竹笛，警惕的看着陳初。
“剛才還好好的，怎麽一言不和就動手啊？”林媗問道。
“我從他身上感覺到了殺氣。”女靈體指着陳初。
林媗轉頭看向陳初。
陳初面向着女靈體，指尖有風聲呼嘯。
見到陳初這副架勢，林媗還有什麽不明白的，再結合剛才他們聊天的內容，林媗立刻猜到了陳初的打算，他是想用第二個方法離開苗寨。
可問題是……
“大祭司已經進來了，他算是這裏的靈體嗎？”林媗問。
陳初被林媗的這個問題直接問懵了，大祭司算不算這個次空間的靈體？你說他算吧，他不是苗寨的原有的靈體，是從鎖魂樓流竄過來的。你說他不算吧，他又确實在苗寨裏。誰也不知道次空間的認定原理，到底是怎麽認定原著民的。是按戶口呢，還是來了就是。
“@#%￥#%”
大祭司的聲音忽然而至，響徹整個苗寨，說的是次空間的語言，也沒有使用靈魂感應能力，所以林媗聽不懂。
女靈體卻是臉色一變，頓時顧不上陳初，轉身沖出了房門，站在了二樓的陽臺上，看向寨子入口的方向。
大紅祭祀長袍的大祭司正從寨門走入，随意打量了一遍寨內的情況，等看清寨子裏許多的外來者，長袖一揮，詛咒之力溢出，寨子裏的這些異能者便一個接一個的倒下，沒了聲息。
“尊者來我無痕谷所謂何事。”女靈體高聲喊道。
“你是現任谷主？”大祭司看向女靈體。
“是。”
“苗歌雲是你何人？”大祭司問。
“是我祖母。”
“聽聞大災變時期，尊者苗歌雲以身為容器，借萬蠱之力，封印了‘瘟疫’，可有此事？”大祭司問。
“是。”女靈體道。
“怎麽全是大祭司在問，根本不知道他們聊什麽。”林媗和陳初蹲在屋子裏，本想通過女靈體的回答猜測大祭司的來意，結果聽了半天，除了是是是，什麽也沒聽出來，“這大祭司是怎麽從鎖魂樓裏出來的？”
陳初：“應該和戒尺有關，戒尺打破了規則之力，鎖魂樓坍塌，大祭司應該是那個時候乘機逃出來的。只是……誰也沒想到他居然可以在空間亂流中穿行。”
可如果大祭司在這裏，那麽鎖魂樓的七樓是不是空了？而且大祭司可以穿越空間亂流來到苗寨，以後是不是還可以去其他地方？如果次空間裏有一個如此強大的靈體四處流串，只怕以後次空間的生存率會更低。
還有，大祭司一心想離開次空間去到地球，以前在鎖魂樓的時候他能接觸的外界異能者數量有限，若以後……
陳初想到這裏，只覺得手腳冰涼。
“尊者來意不妨直說。”女靈體繼續問道。
“我要苗歌雲的蠱。”大祭司道。
“不可能！”女靈體想也不想的拒絕。
“若是以前，無痕谷我也不一定敢得罪，但苗歌雲封印‘瘟疫’的時候幾乎帶走了無痕蠱所有的蠱蟲。而今，你們還剩下幾種蠱蟲？”大祭司冷笑道，“你若識趣，告知我苗歌雲的蠱在哪裏，我去拿了便走，若不然，我殺光你們，再慢慢的找。”
女靈體緊握着竹樓的欄杆，心中滿是掙紮。
“何必呢，這個世界早已經死去，你們不過是些殘魂而已。”大祭司的聲音再次傳來。
“殘魂？這個世界已經死去？”女靈體乍聽之下有些驚訝，但似乎又不完全驚訝，似乎早有預料一般。
大祭司在告訴女靈體這個世界已經死去的真相？！
女靈體忽的轉頭，看向林媗：“我們的世界已經死去？”
林媗還是第一次遇見這種情況，一時間不知道該怎麽回答：“學長，她問我他們的世界是不是已經死了？我該怎麽回答啊。”
陳初很是有經驗：“如實相告吧，反正三天後，她的記憶就會被刷新。”
林媗這才想起來，次空間的一般靈體是無法擁有連續性的記憶的：“其實我覺得你們的世界更像是地府。”
“地府？”
“就是人死後的世界。”林媗解釋道，“在我們看來，你們這個世界确實已經不存在活物了，可你們的靈體還在，就像是一個亡靈的國度。我覺得，你們只是換了一種形勢存在。”
“靈體，難怪我進級之後，總感覺自己的身體有些奇怪，原來我現在只是靈體。”女靈體喃喃的道。
林媗也是第一次知道，原來在靈體的自我意識裏，他們是有肉身的。是因為異能的升級，才察覺到了不對。
“本尊耐心有限，給你們五個數的時間思考，五個數之後如果不說，我便屠了無痕谷。”大祭司沒有耐心等待回答，開始下最後通牒。
“既然世界已經死了，那你要蠱王做什麽？”女靈體祖母的蠱便是無痕谷的蠱王，是當年為了封印‘瘟疫’，集全谷巫蠱師之力，數十萬只蠱蟲，煉制出的蠱王。那之後，無痕谷蠱蟲幾乎滅絕，只剩下十餘種蠱。
“五、四……”大祭司沒有回答，而是直接開始倒數。
女靈體二話沒說，手中竹笛立刻放到嘴邊，吹了起來。而随着她笛音一起行動的，還有苗寨內所有的靈體。
這些靈體一個個操控着自己的蠱蟲，或操縱傀儡攻擊，或用蠱蟲直接攻擊，或兩兩結合形成蠱陣，還有不是巫蠱師的竟然拿着刀兵就沖了上去。
苗寨之外，之前那圍攻陳初和林媗的數萬蠱蟲也聚集而來，齊齊朝着大祭司圍攻而去。
陳初閃身到窗口，透過縫隙往外頭看去。
“你必須幫我們。”女靈體忽然走了回來，對着陳初說道。
不用陳初問，林媗主動反應道：“她讓我們幫他對付大祭司。”
女靈體繼續道：“如果我們死了，你們也得死。”
陳初看着外面幾乎一面倒的戰鬥，回道：“我不是大祭司的對手。”
女靈體：“你拖住他，直到我喚醒祖母。”
林媗一聽這是有戲啊：“你祖母可以打贏大祭司？”
女靈體看向林媗：“我祖母也是十五級尊者。”
林媗立刻轉達給陳初：“她說她祖母和大祭司一樣厲害，但要時間喚醒。”
陳初：“多久？”
女靈體：“一首曲子的時間。”
林媗很想問，一首曲子的時間到底是多長，是兩分鐘還是三分鐘，陳初便已經答應了。
陳初答應完，接着又對林媗道：“你躲在這裏，不要出去，看苗寨這情況，他們會拼死擋住大祭司。就算最後打不贏，苗寨裏的靈體也應該死的差不多了，到時候次空間門可能會開，如果開了，立刻離開。”
“那你呢？”林媗問陳初。
“到時候我會自己想辦法，你走了，我脫身更容易。”陳初道。
林媗知道陳初的這個安排是當前情況下最好的，以她現有的道具連去大祭司面前站一下都不行，萬一大祭司嫌棄他礙眼，一個死咒雖然咒不死她，但能清空她的功德值。她還不如老老實實在這裏買道具，看看能不能幫點忙。
“我知道了。”林媗點頭。
陳初這才從儲物空間裏抽出那把青色的紅纓槍，這把紅纓槍也是陳初從鎖魂樓七樓帶出來的。陳初一抖紅纓槍，化身成風，直接跳窗而出。
與此同時，女靈體手中的竹笛再次響起，吹奏出一曲新的曲子。
林媗看了一眼窗外，擡手去了幸運女神的發卡：“許願，希望陳初學長和大祭司戰鬥的時候不受傷。”
【請宿主不要許不切實際的願望。】
林媗：“許願，陳初學長和大祭司戰鬥的時候不受重傷。”
【請宿主不要許不切實際的願望。】
不受重傷都不行？！
林媗咬牙，再來：“許願，陳初學長和大祭司戰鬥的時候不要死，這種行了吧。”
【許願成功。】
林媗這個願許的一點都不開心，但顧不得生氣，立刻開始采購道具：“系統，我要買道具。”
商城頁面閃爍而出，此時的商城頁面只剩下“言靈之書”。只剩下這一個了，也不用選，林媗立刻點擊購買。
【餘額不足。】
怎麽會？自己還有九萬多的。
Lin Xian hurriedly looked towards the lower left corner, and saw the merit value displayed in the lower left corner: 89811 merit points.
That's not right. When I bought the King Card, I still had more than 90,000 merit points left. How come it's so much less all of a sudden?
Lin Xian quickly clicked on the details of the merit points and saw three huge expenditures.
[Draw Zhang Fei, A-level card, merit value -500. ]
[Draw card Daji, B-level, merit value -100. 】
[Card draw week, A-level, Merit value -1000 (1% chance of S-level control release buff.)]
"..." Lin Yan finally understood why the 10,000 King of Glory Hero Card item was placed together with the 90,000 Word Spirit Book. Isn't this a typical sales tactic of free hardware and paid services? Moreover, she was charged 10,000 for the hardware.
"System, could you please not be so deceiving?" Lin An was angry.
"Is this a scam? You want to have the abilities of an A-class psychic with 10,000 merit points? And there are many kinds of props, and there is even a chance to draw an S-class hero card?" the system asked back.
Lin was speechless when asked. If it was really as the system said, she would not mind a hundred thousand, let alone ten thousand. So the side effect of this item was that it consumed merit points every time it was used.
"What should we do now? The high priest is chasing us, and I have to buy props to save my life." Lin Nan said.
"I'm just an occupation system." The system's lame rhetoric came again.
"..." Lin Yan knew that this was hopeless. But the system had put two products on the shelves today, one of which she bought and the other she couldn't afford. What should she do?
"Can I draw an S-level card? How many merit points do I need for an SSS-level card?" Maybe I'll be lucky enough to get a 3S-level hero card and kill the high priest directly.
"You can try it and you'll know when you get it." said the system.
I don't believe you at all. With my luck, it's impossible for me to win. Don't even think about cheating me of my merit points!
Lin Yan switched to the inventory and saw the "monk's wooden fish". Her eyes lit up and she took it out and started hitting it.
As she chanted "Amitabha", golden light appeared on the female spirit's body. She felt that the energy she had consumed in playing the music was being replenished quickly, and her progress in playing the music also increased.
With a loud bang, the rock statue in the center of the square exploded, revealing a sarcophagus underneath. The sarcophagus began to vibrate, and a huge force was generated from within, knocking away the heavy stone slab.
The high priest who was being besieged by Chen Chu and the spirits turned around and saw a young woman with gorgeous clothes, stunning appearance and red agate makeup in her braided hair.
If Lin was here, she would recognize at a glance that this woman is the statue sitting on the stone chair in the square. She would be even more surprised that this woman actually has a physical body.
"So, you have refined yourself into a dragon." The high priest looked at the woman, his body suddenly exploded, and he struck Chen Chu in the chest with a palm, sending him flying.
Before the besieging spirits could get close, they were killed by the power of the curse emanating from the high priest.
It turned out that the high priest was not unable to kill all these spirits at once, but he just kept them to force the current Valley Master to summon the Gu King.
"Although I don't want to be a woman, I will change my body after I get out of here." The reason why the high priest went to the Miao village by all means was to get the mosquito and use it to leave the secondary space.
The sub-space has rules and restrictions, and the spirits in the original space cannot leave the sub-space. Previously, he wanted to use Chen Chu as a medium and then seize Chen Chu after leaving. As a result, Chen Chu refused to do so, so he thought of another way, using a parasite to get out.
The insect and his curse were both products of supernatural powers. Since the curse of his world could be brought to Earth, the insect could be brought to Earth as well. Therefore, he only needed to fuse his soul with the insect and then parasitize the insect to leave. Once he was out, it would be easy for him to find a suitable body with his own hands.
In this world, the only insect that can contain his soul is the King of the Woundless Insect. But he didn't expect that Miao Geyun would actually use her body to refine the insect, but it was okay, so that after he got out, he didn't have to rush to find a body, and it would be okay to be a woman for a while.
Because of the help of Lin's "wooden fish", the female spirit did not feel tired after summoning the Dragon King. She squatted beside Lin and asked, "Can you use this power on my grandmother?"
"Your grandmother?"
The female spirit pulled Lin Nan to the window, pointed at the woman who was walking towards the high priest step by step and said: "That is my grandmother. Sixty years ago, she merged herself with the Dragon King and slept underground. Although I have awakened her now, I have only awakened the Dragon King. The Dragon King only has fighting instincts, and my control cannot defeat the high priest. If you can awaken my grandmother's spirit, we have a chance of winning."
Lin asked, "Is your grandmother's spirit still here?"
The female spirit was very sure: "Yes!"
Lin: "That's fine."
Lin Xian took the wooden fish and prepared to have a great time.
