Chapter 100: Cave of Sorrow (9) Grab the item [Proverb Lock]...
Qin Xishuang: "For Wei Wei, preserving the soul is not difficult. He can use the Golden Cicada Gu to take over another body at any time and let Gu Kang be resurrected in your body."
Gao Mengtang looked at the rattan chair in the corner, lost in thought, without responding.
"Gu Kang's kindness to Wei Wei is as great as a mountain. When Wei Wei was in junior high school, his father was found to have accepted bribes and was sentenced to death. Not long after, his mother committed suicide. At that time, Gu Kang was an entrepreneur and sponsored his studies." Qin Xishuang sat on the chair opposite Gao Mengtang and crossed one leg.
"Wei Wei is smart, and Gu Kang has connections, so they made connections everywhere, allowing Wei Wei to become the youngest professor at Zhongzhou University."
"You know, Wei Wei had a biological sister who died in the Black Tower dungeon during the internal test period, and her soul was scattered. Wei Wei cried for three days and three nights, his voice became hoarse, and he couldn't speak for more than half a month. That's why he was obsessed with resurrection. He developed the skill [Change Your Mind]"
Qin Xishuang leaned forward, staring at Gao Mengtang's face, studying his expression. However, Gao Mengtang remained calm.
"Three years ago, Wei Wei didn't smoke or drink. After Gu Kang died, Wei Wei started smoking and drinking to relieve his depression. He has a good alcohol tolerance. He can finish three kilograms of white wine mixed with two kilograms of red wine in one night."
"Oh, by the way, Gu Kang raises Gu and deals with insects. So Wei Wei likes to eat insects, fried cocoon pupae, roasted grasshoppers, roasted spiders, fried cockroaches, and centipede wine. Fortunately, he doesn't like to eat butterflies," Qin Xishuang shuddered, "He once raised a duckling, but it died before it reached adulthood. Wei Wei was very sad and never ate duck meat again."
Gao Mengtang sat quietly without any reaction, seemingly not listening.
"You don't know all this, right? After all, from the first time you and Wei Wei met to now..." Qin Xishuang counted on her fingers, "It's only been three months, and I've known him for three years."
"Wei Wei and Gu Kang have been friends for more than ten years."
After saying that, Qin Xishuang raised the corners of her lips: "Now, do you still dare to trust him?"
Gao Mengtang was still in a daze. Qin Xishuang said a lot, but it turned out to be a one-man show. He was a little annoyed and snapped his fingers in front of Gao Mengtang.
"Hey, little blind man. Look at me."
"Hmm?" Gao Mengtang suddenly came back to his senses, "What's wrong?"
Qin Xishuang: ...
"Do you still dare to trust Wei Wei?"
The air in the stilted house was cool and dry, with a breeze blowing through the hall. Gao Mengtang's hair fluttered in the wind, and he said frankly, "Well, I still believe in Wei Wei."
Qin Xishuang suspected that there was something wrong with her ears, and spread her hands: "What can I say about you? You have no vigilance, trust others easily, and are simple-minded?"
Gao Mengtang is certainly wary, more so than others. He is also not a simple-minded person.
However, while Qin Xishuang was chattering, Gao Mengtang reviewed what he saw and heard in the illusion.
Wei Wei evolved 6 times and became [101 Saints]
In the Black Tower game, the player's identity information will be publicly displayed after entering the game, with no room for hiding.
When joining Heiou, their identity information will also be verified. However, most people, including Yin Mingwu, do not know that Wei Wei had evolved into a saint.
This means that during the time between the second illusion and when Wei Wei joined Black Owl, another accident occurred, causing Wei Wei's ID card to be downgraded by two levels and his direction to deviate, becoming [101 Body Cleansing Master]
Gao Mengtang was very sensitive to sounds. Thinking back carefully, in the first illusion, Wei Wei's voice was slightly higher in pitch, while in the second illusion, the pitch was deeper.
Moreover, in the first illusion, Gao Mengtang observed that his skin was pale and cold sweat oozed from his forehead. It is very likely that at that time, Wei Wei had been castrated, but the effect was not obvious.
It’s hard to say what happened in the meantime, it’s definitely not as simple as imagined.
Gao Mengtang crossed his hands and placed them on his knees: "Then do you know why Wei Wei was demoted from [101 Saints] to [101 Purifiers]?"
Qin Xishuang choked: "I don't know. Do you know?"
"No," Gao Mengtang said with an air of knowing everything. "Right now, this is not the most important thing. I want to leave the illusion."
"Okay," Qin Xishuang took out a skill scroll, "Sign this and I'll let you out."
Skill Scroll [Never Leave, Never Abandon]
After signing, both parties will become a lovebirds, never abandon each other throughout their lives, and share skills, props and everything else.
Gao Mengtang: "No."
"So do you want to kill me, or use your healing skills to purify the illusion?" Qin Xishuang laughed angrily, "As far as I know, you don't have any healing skills."
"Yes, I don't have any healing skills," Gao Mengtang shrugged, "so I'm going to kill you."
"You want to kill me?" Qin Xishuang pointed at herself and laughed heartily when Gao Mengtang nodded. "Okay, how do you kill me? I'm all ears."
Gao Mengtang: "Give me a weapon first."
"Like a butcher handing over a knife? Normally, I wouldn't do such a thing." Qin Xishuang stood up gracefully and approached Gao Mengtang, with tenderness flowing between her eyebrows, "But you are not ordinary, I will always satisfy the beauty's request."
He took out a pistol and pressed it against Gao Mengtang's leg: "I'm looking forward to... a tangled duel with you."
After saying this, Qin Xishuang jumped back lightly, her skirt spread out, like a red spider lily at the edge of hell. Red butterflies fluttered around like petals falling all over the sky, cheering him up.
"Let the duel begin, Mengtang."
Gao Mengtang was still sitting in the rattan chair. He casually picked up the gun, cocked the trigger, and pointed it at Qin Xishuang.
The muzzle of the gun suddenly turned and pressed against his temple.
Bang. Gunshot.
The recoil was too great and Gao Mengtang lost control of the gun. The bullet did not hit his brain but shot out from his right eye socket. In an instant, blood covered his entire face.
The incident happened suddenly, and Qin Xishuang took two seconds to react. She immediately cast a healing aura and flew over to grab the gun.
Gao Mengtang raised his gun for the second time.
The severe pain made Gao Mengtang tremble all over. He raised the gun again, pointed it at his left eye, with the muzzle slightly pointing upwards.
Who said he didn't have any healing skills? The system had reminded me that if you died in the [Past Events·Proverbs] fantasy, you would also die in the dungeon.
After he commits suicide, the Twelve Ghosts will revive him and purify all negative influences.
Bang. The second gunshot. Qin Xishuang was a step slower.
The bullet went through his head and exited from the back, leaving a large gash in his skull. Gao Mengtang lost all strength and fell backwards on the rattan chair. Blood dripped down his arm.
Both eyes were blind, and there was nothingness. When dying, the last thing to go is hearing. Gao Mengtang heard Qin Xishuang crying and calling his name.
Black mud gushed out of the body.
[Cave of Sorrow] copy.
Wei Wei was still squatting on the ground, holding the incense burner, his eyes dull, and he couldn't stop crying.
The sobbing, the wind, the chirping of insects at night... all the sounds disappeared in an instant. A thin ghost figure penetrated the roof, and the black tower lantern swayed above his head.
Wei Wei suddenly woke up. He stared at the incense burner in his hand, threw it away, and went to check on Gao Mengtang's condition.
"Mr. Blind? Mr. Blind! This is..."
A chain was wrapped around Gao Mengtang's neck. Wei Wei recognized it as a prop that only Qin Xishuang had. [Proverb Lock]
Wei Wei immediately grabbed the chain and pulled it inward. He Luo's tentacles stretched out from the pipe and rushed along the chain like a rolling dark green tsunami.
The chain was stretched straight, and the person on the other end was unwilling to let go. Gao Mengtang suddenly opened his eyes: "Qin Xishuang and the others are nearby!"
Without Gao Mengtang's reminder, Wei Wei had already picked up Xiao Canglan in one hand, put his arm around Gao Mengtang with the other, stepped on the chain, and chased after him.
Qin Xishuang, Bo Yao and Wo Lanbei were all in the countryside. When Qin Xishuang saw the dark green tentacle in the sky, his face suddenly turned cold.
"Oh no, Wei Wei is chasing us."
If the system determines that Wei Wei and others have succeeded in snatching the Proverbs Lock, the ownership of the Proverbs Lock will be changed. Qin Xishuang wanted to run away, but she couldn't bear to give up the Proverbs Lock and held it tightly, refusing to let go.
In an extremely dangerous battle, a second of hesitation would bring about a catastrophic disaster. Qin Xishuang only heard someone shouting "Run", followed by the sound of low waves.
When he looked up, he saw He Luo's two huge, bulging red eyes hanging above him, and its tentacles stabbing towards his chest.
"Run!" Bo Yao screamed and used the skill [Invisible Dissolution]. The three of them turned into liquid and seeped into the soil.
He Luo's tentacles pierced through the soil, and a meter-wide crack appeared on the ground. No human figure was seen, only a dark water trail running away into the distance.
Several black chains flew out of Xiao Canglan's hands, along the gap, and spread out in all directions. Her identity card was one level higher than Bo Yao's, and her skill [Sinking Dead Water Together] could suppress Bo Yao's skills. The water marks touched the chains and disappeared automatically. Qin Xishuang and the others appeared in the soil and were pulled out by He Luo.
The flock of butterflies exploded silently, and wherever their wings passed, there was a layer of dreamy fluorescence.
The hallucinogenic skill [Dream Butterfly] can make the opponent fall into a short sleep. Wei Wei fainted for a second and woke up quickly. In this extremely short time, Wolanbei immediately counterattacked.
[111 Wandering Gunner] Identity Skills [Firearms Expertise]
Wolanbei jumped into the air and fired at them with a machine gun. Then, a sniper rifle appeared out of thin air in his hand and fired five shots in a row.
Freesia tied her teammates with white chains to protect them from damage. After all, she was a child and it was her first time in a dungeon. Her combat awareness was a little weak and she was slow to use her skills.
There was a "pop" sound as flesh was pierced, and Wei Wei let out a muffled groan from between his teeth.
"Are you hurt?"
"It's OK," Wei Wei said, "He missed the target and shot through the left shoulder."
With Freesia's shield on top, the three of them rushed forward quickly.
Gao Mengtang flicked his finger and a soap bubble flew over. A rainbow plush ball popped out of the bubble.
"Dog, catch Qin Xishuang! Otherwise I will send you back to hell."
"Ouch!" Pei Jiana was sleeping soundly, and was suddenly pulled out, and she screamed in anger. She took out all her anger on Qin Xishuang.
The aurora was dazzling, enveloping him.
Pegana's soul is sealed, and his strength is far less than before, but as a genuine life from the other world, any attack from him would make it difficult for high-end players to resist.
Qin Xishuang stopped immediately, her eyes were bloodshot, her pupils bulged, her teeth couldn't open, and her body was shaking like a sieve.
The dark green tentacles pierced Qin Xishuang's chest easily like a piece of tofu. Blood spurted out and Qin Xishuang fell forward limply.
Skill: Butterfly
After Qin Xishuang dies, he will turn into a cocoon. If the cocoon is not broken within 30 minutes, he will be resurrected at the same place. The cooling time is 30 days.
The hardness of the cocoon silk was unexpectedly great. He Luo attacked it several times in a row, but only made a few scratches.
Wolanbei's bullets had a corrosive effect. A circle of burning marks appeared on the edge of the wound on Wei Wei's shoulder. The wound was constantly expanding and the attack was gradually slowing down.
"Dog, go beat that cocoon."
"I'm not a dog!" Pegana was so angry that he jumped up and down. "I don't have much attack power. I can only make the player lose control in fear. He is a dead man and will not feel fear! I have no tricks and can't cure him."
On the other side, Bo Yao recovered from his fear and used the [Invisible Dissolution] skill again, running with Qin Xishuang's cocoon.
The dog ancient god used up some of his remaining energy, chasing after Bo Yao, who was so frightened that he forgot to take the proverb lock with him. The plush ball held the proverb lock on his head and gave it to Gao Mengtang like a treasure.
System: "The snatch was successful, the ownership of the item [Proverbs Lock] has changed."
"Player [000 Blind] obtains the item [Proverb Lock]"
"Don't chase her," Wei Wei's face turned pale due to blood loss, "Qin Xishuang's cocoon is as solid as a rock. Within 30 minutes, it will take the attack power of at least three Duan Songs to barely break it."
He sat on the ground exhausted, and Freesia clumsily bandaged his wound.
"Mr. Blind, what happened just now? Did Qin Xishuang sneak attack you?"
Gao Mengtang hesitated for a moment: "He took me into the illusion of the past and proverbs."
Wei Wei's whole body trembled, as if he knew what Gao Mengtang would experience, and his already pale face lost the last trace of blood. He spoke, his voice trembling slightly.
"What did you see in the illusion?"
Hearing his weak and trembling voice, Gao Mengtang couldn't bear to ask. He turned his head away and let out a long sigh.
But some things are better to be spoken out openly than to keep them in your heart and suspect each other.
"Wei Wei, do you still have the Golden Cicada Gu?"
