Chosen Prophet [Unlimited]

Chapter 160 Skull Wall 32

The victims appear almost in pairs, and there is a kind of intimacy between them. One of them will be burned and the other will be buried in the sky. This is the law that Duan Yi has summed up so far.

Of course, one of the prerequisites for the establishment of the law is that Hu Jin did die in an accident, and there were no other victims who could form an intimate relationship with him.

In addition, if we dig deeper according to this rule, we can find some other problems.

Duan Yi concluded to the players: "First, both the general and the princess are close to Xiaoge, why Daguang only chooses to attack the princess instead of the general. Second, both Shu Rongrong and Hong Xian have died, which is already in line with the law of Daguang's harm. Then why, after they died, Da Guang specially asked Xiao Bing to bring Tang Xiao out of the prison?"

Wu Junlan said first: "I will answer the second question first. Maybe Shu Rongrong and Hong Xian really killed each other in the end, making Da Guang feel that their relationship is not close enough to meet the emotional intensity he needs."

Duan Yi thought for a while, then nodded in agreement: "This is a good idea. In fact, relatively speaking, Shu Rongrong is more decisive and ruthless, while Hong Xian has softened her heart before, and he has softened his heart twice."

After recounting his own analysis of this matter, Duan Yi said again: "There are only three things. It is rare for a person like Hong Xian to soften his heart twice. I am afraid he will not soften his heart for the third time and be beaten by Shu Rongrong's blood bell." At that moment, he has completely given up. At least Daguang probably thinks so."

"Switching to Shu Rongrong... the situation is different. She should be aware of Hong Xian's soft-heartedness twice, so maybe she developed some feelings for him before she died. The point I want to say is that these two people are dying. At the moment before, the awareness and feelings for each other should be very important to Daguang."

On the side, Yun Hao asked Duan Yi: "You mean—before Shu Rongrong died, she might feel soft-hearted, guilty, and even have some true feelings for Hong Xian; but before Hong Xian died, she might completely give up on Shu Rongrong and no longer have any nostalgia for her. "

"Yes." Duan Yi said.

Wu Junlan frowned: "I still haven't quite figured it out. I've been struggling with this little detail over and over...does it make sense? Duan Yi, please explain more clearly."

Duan Yi said: "This is related to the two people who have a close relationship, who is the one who was buried in the sky, and who was the one who was burned. Before Hong Xian died, he gave up on Shu Rongrong, but Shu Rongrong developed feelings for him instead. This is a big deal. It will happen with probability. Therefore, Daguang arranged for Hong Xian's celestial burial instead of Shu Rongrong."

"But Shu Rongrong is used to being cruel after all. Da Guang is not sure whether her feelings for Hong Xian are strong or not, so just in case, he burned Tang Xiao again. Because Tang Xiao really loved Hong Xian sincerely. Hong Xian's.

"Hong Xian gave up on Shu Rongrong, but he never had any real feelings for Tang Xiao. That is to say, he has no feelings for the two girls. But on the other hand, both girls may have feelings for him, especially Tang Xiao. So , just to be on the safe side, Da Guang simply used the two of them."

"'Use the two of them'? You are a bit particular about the word 'use'—" Bai Sinian thought of something, and suddenly stood up, "Hong Xian has no feelings for them, so he can't be the one to be burned. It's this one." Logic! It means...means..."

An extremely astonishing brain hole has been developed by Bai Sinian, but he hasn't been able to organize the language well, so he couldn't say it for a while.

Duan Yi took over the words and said: "Hong Xian is ruthless, but at least one of Shu Rongrong and Tang Xiaozhong must have feelings for him. Just like a businessman's wife has feelings for the businessman, Dou Shuang has feelings for Tang Nian... and Xiao Ge, too. Has feelings for her mother.

"Think about it, people in Loulan believe that the only link between the soul and the world is bones, so we can completely open up a bold idea——

"People whose bodies have been burned to ashes, their bones will not remain, and their souls will be in exile. Their souls cannot find their own bones, and they have lost contact with the world, so they cannot return. But if... there is a close relative Will the soul form a new connection with the remains of a loved one so that it can find its way home?"

Having said that, Duan Yi stood up and looked in the direction of the skull wall.

After a long while, he slowly said: "The skulls on the skull wall are for attracting souls back. I thought at first that they would bring back souls going to heaven. Now I realize that I was wrong. Daguang Those skulls were left behind not to bring back their own souls, but to bring back the souls of those with whom they had a close relationship.

"This is why Hong Xian must be buried in the sky, not burned. If the person who was buried in the sky and left his skull on the skull wall is Shu Rongrong or Tang Xiao, he has no feelings for them, and his soul may not come back. But the other way around It's different. Shu Rongrong may have some feelings for him before she dies, and she may come back; Tang Xiao is more likely."

"So... the soul of the merchant's wife came back because the merchant's head was on the skull wall. If Shu Rongrong and Tang Xiao came back, it was because of Hong Xian; the soul of Dou Shuang came back because of Tong Nian? Well, that little song... "

Wu Junlan bit her chapped lips a few times, her face was extremely pale, "Da Guang let people who are close to each other die one after another, and then dispose of the corpses separately... is... for...

Duan Yi uttered a sentence deeply: "It is uncertain that the soul will establish contact with the bones of the people so far, and then return. Otherwise, there will be no rumors in the local area that 'there is no bone left, and the soul will never return'. So I think Daguang is experimenting.

"He killed so many people just for experimentation. Because he wanted Xiaoge's soul back.

"Xiaoge's body entered the painting and completely disappeared between the heaven and the earth. Without a body and the bones that the Loulan people believed in, she couldn't find her way home. So Daguang wanted to kill the princess and put her Her head was left on the skull wall, and he wanted to see if Xiaoge could be attracted by the head of the princess. The reason why the princess was left by him until the end... was because he needed to experiment on other people first, see Is this method any good?"

Daguang killed so many people just for experiment.

If this inference is true, his actions are simply too outrageous!

After a while, Bai Sinian couldn't help but said: "Fuck, I feel the kindness of this dungeon towards single dogs."

If this sentence is changed, it is still funny.

But no one was laughing right now.

Bai Sinian coughed dryly, then frowned and said, "In this way, the princess may not be buried in the sky tomorrow. The businessman and his wife have actually been used as an experiment, but Daguang continued to kill people afterwards, This means that something went wrong with his experiment, and he needs more experiments. Just in case, this time, he even burned two girls to make sure that the experiment failed, not because of their weak feelings for Hong Xian Reason. Therefore, if Hong Xian's head successfully attracts Shu Rongrong's or Tang Xiao's soul back, Da Guang will bury the princess in the sky."

"Yes. It should be like this." Duan Yi nodded.

Yunhao couldn't help asking: "Then back to the first question you asked earlier, why did Daguang choose the princess instead of the general?"

Duan Yi said: "There are two points. First, according to our previous reasoning, Xiaoge was killed by the general, so it is very likely that she gave up on the general before she died. Then the general's head is not enough to attract her back. Between the two Lost the emotional connection. But I think the reasoning is actually a bit far-fetched."

Wu Junlan took the conversation and said, "It's really far-fetched. In fact, besides love, hate is also an emotional connection. If I were Xiaoge, and my beloved husband killed me and treated me as a monster, I couldn't have any feelings for him all at once. No, either I understand why he did it and continue to love him, or I blame him and hate him."

After listening, Duan Yi nodded to her, and said: "Then let's go directly to the second reason. If the princess dies of illness, it will have no effect on Jiangshan Sheji. Loulan will still exist. But the general is dead, not necessarily. The enemy country heard the news , a massive attack, Loulan may cease to exist."

Yun Hao couldn't help but said: "Then it doesn't make sense, does it? Looking at Da Guang's crazy appearance, he is not the kind of person who has compassion and thinks about problems for the country of Loulan and the people of Loulan."

Duan Yi shook his head: "No. All our inferences today are based on one foundation - Daguang's madness is related to Xiaoge. According to this inference, all of Daguang's behavioral motives are inseparable from Xiaoge."

In the night, only Duan Yi's voice became deeper. "If Loulan is gone, Xiao Ge will have no home when she comes back."

The unexpected but seemingly reasonable truth, as well as Daguang's paranoia and madness behind the truth, silenced everyone.

A few people are sitting on the hill at the moment, in order to avoid attracting Daguang's attention, they didn't use flashlights, and they didn't hold up torches. brilliance.

When the four players were sitting around discussing just now, tomorrow did not participate. He sat not far in front, looking straight at the direction of the celestial burial platform, where there was the only light in the silent night.It will be like this tomorrow, naturally to keep abreast of the changes over there.

After Duan Yi was silent for a long time, he walked up to tomorrow and sat down next to him, gently holding his hand.

Turn around tomorrow, smile slightly at him, and hold his hand back.

"Why don't you express your opinion?" Duan Yi asked.

Ming Ming said: "Because I think the same as you."

Duan Yi smiled, let out a breath, and then looked at the skull wall in front of him.

Behind the two of them, Yun Hao came over. "Having said that, we probably already understand Daguang's idea. He wants Xiaoge's soul to be attracted back by the princess's head. But... what happens next? How do we pass the level?"

"Duan Yidao," Hong Xian will be buried in the sky tomorrow morning, Da Guang may wait for a while before taking action, and wait until the afternoon or the morning after tomorrow before he strikes the princess.But maybe... maybe his experiment would never work out. "

Bai Sinian frowned and said: "If he won't succeed, he will continue to kill people. He can only correspond to the werewolf camp. Who is the person corresponding to the good guy camp? Who wants to stop him?"

"I'll know the answer tomorrow." Duan Yi got up suddenly, but took tomorrow's hand and walked to the place where the horses were parked, "Let's go. Go back to the tent. Eat something and sleep well. Recover your strength Only then can we break the situation.”

"Look at you like this...do you have a plan?" Bai Sinian asked, "Hey, what did you say 'I'll know tomorrow'? Which tomorrow is it?"

"The next day, that tomorrow."

Duan Yi smiled and squeezed tomorrow's hand beside him, got on the horse with him, and drove into the night.

Two people on one horse, one rides Juechen.

With the stars and the moon overhead, they rode to the barracks.

Unbutton the cloak tomorrow and wrap Duan Yi in it. "It's windy and sandy, be careful."

"I'm fine. You skinny and tender..."

"Brother Yi——"

"I'm telling the truth. Pretty little Tian shouldn't be blowing sand."

"Seriously." Ask tomorrow, "You guessed the way to clear the customs, but don't say it, just want to try Bai Sinian?"

"Yes, I want to give him a good try. But it will depend on the situation at that time. In case of any eventuality, of course the customs clearance is the first priority. Hey, having said that, about customs clearance, don't you think the same as me?" Duan Yi asked.

"Let me think... Well, that pen must be the key." Ming Ming said.

Duan Yi said in a very appreciative tone: "It is very important to arrange for Peng Cheng to pay attention to the NPC's actions. This is thanks to you. You are indeed the first person to go to the end in this game."

Ming Ming smiled: "I didn't help you too much this time—"

"I know, your actions are still limited. If you really help me solve the problem at once, then the XX power needed by the XX unspeakable person will be reduced, and then you will be exposed." Duan Yidao, "What's more, you It has helped me a lot."

After a short pause, Duan Yi said again: "I can't find Da Guang's pen anywhere, and most of it is on him. To him, that pen must be very important. As for the people in the camp of good guys... I'm afraid it's just letting him The person we crossed over."

"Yes." Hugging Duan Yi tightly tomorrow, he recalled the poem that Duan Yi and the others saw in the cemetery a long time ago.

—— "Who can bury me again."

·

The next day.

With the previous experience, this time four players plus an NPC rushed to the sky burial platform very early tomorrow.

The celestial burial ceremony is not taboo for people to visit. On the contrary, in order to promote the teachings, the congregation actually invites the common people to visit.In this way, Duan Yi and his party entered the courtyard smoothly.

Of course, when the second senior brother and the younger senior brother saw them, their expressions were still a little subtle.

However, there are people here who believe in the teachings of Zhang Zhung, and what they claim to the outside world is that their teachings are inclusive of everything, so it is naturally inconvenient to expel people openly.

Da Guang had a calm face, he just sat in the middle of the courtyard and chanted sutras, as if he didn't care about anything.

As for the burial pool, only the body of the princess remained, and Hong Xian's body had already been carried to the sky burial platform.

Logically speaking, the death of the princess is a major event, but it seems that the treatment of her body is no different from that of other people, and there is no one from the palace at the moment, as if no one pays attention to her.

Regarding the reasons behind this, before coming here, I went to inquire about a wave of news tomorrow, and the results I got are, first, the news received by the general is that after Daguang's divination, the princess's celestial burial ceremony needs to be postponed, as for How long it will be postponed depends on the result of the divination from Daguang’s lower office. You can just wait for his notice and then come here to participate in the ceremony; second, Zhang Zhung’s teachings emphasize simplicity and equality of all beings, so the death of the princess is no different from that of ordinary people , without adding any redundant or even extravagant burial steps.

But Duan Yi and the others obviously knew the inside story.

Why calculate the suitable time for her sky burial for the princess?It is clear that Daguang is waiting for the experimental results.

He wanted to see if Dou Shuang's soul would return because of Tong Nian's skull; and if Shu Rongrong or Tang Xiao would come back after he buried Hong Xiantian.

When he is sure, he will probably attack the princess.

Soon it was time for the sky burial ceremony to begin.

After all, Wu Junlan didn't want to watch this kind of scene, and she had already retreated before the ceremony officially started.

Inside the prison, Peng Cheng was shouting, "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, I don't even want to watch Xiaolan!"

It's a pity that no one can hear his voice except the NPC.

After about two hours, the ceremony ended.

Hong Xian's body was cut into pieces bit by bit, and the mulberry smoke ignited beside him, causing several vultures to circle around.

The second senior brother threw pieces of meat and chopped bones into the air, and they swooped down to grab each one, and ate them all one by one.

In the end, only a bloody head remained on the celestial burial platform.

After driving away the satiated vultures, the junior brother took a knife and removed the flesh and blood from the skull piece by piece, and then poured water on the skull. After washing several times, there was only one bald vulture left. skull.

Hong Xian was really good-looking before he was alive, with a high nose bridge, thin lips, and deep eye sockets, it was easy to make an affectionate look towards girls, but without flesh and blood, just looking at this skull, he is no different from other people .

Sensuality and superficial appearance, in the end, there is no escape.

This ceremony is very uncomfortable to watch, but in order to find the clearance, several players have to stay here.

Later, the crowd dispersed and Wu Junlan returned, but the four players and tomorrow still guarded and did not leave.

But Na Daguang actually did not move.

It wasn't until the sun had completely risen that it was broad daylight before Daguang got up and walked outside.

From this point of view, his line of action seems to be the same as before—the sky burial ceremony was held before dawn, and he went out to kill people after dawn, so everyone present had a question. This time, his experiment Did it succeed?

Among all the people, Duan Yi undoubtedly paid the most attention to Bai Sinian's expression.

Bai Sinian seemed to be aware of his probing gaze, but calmly looked back. "I feel like you look sure."

Duan Yi smiled and said: "Indeed, but I still need to find a way to get something from Da Guang."

"Hiss...then according to the rules we have concluded, in fact, he won't attack us much. He can't find your weakness. As for the rest of us, we have no bond with each other." Looking at Yunhao and Wu Junlan, Bai Sinian used Bright smile said, "Unless I'm in a relationship with one of you two."

Yun Hao and Wu Junlan said at the same time, "Then you really think too much."

Bai Sinian: "It's okay to be sworn brothers. Brothers and sisters, brothers, can also be regarded as close relationships. Hey, you two are older or younger than me."

Yun Hao: "Call me brother."

Wu Junlan: "...call me sister."

These few people had a lot of fun and joked a few words, and in the process, they walked in front of Peng Cheng tomorrow.

"Did you sleep?" asked tomorrow.

Peng Cheng sighed: "I'm thinking about your orders, big brother, how can I dare to sleep at night? I can't survive like an eagle!"

Looking back at Duan Yi's expression, he looked at Peng Cheng tomorrow, and said lightly: "When you see me, you can be happier."

Peng Cheng: "?"

Tomorrow: "Or at least don't be so bitter and bitter, and have a more relaxed expression."

Peng Cheng rolled his eyes: "I can't relax."

I will look back at Duan Yi tomorrow.

Pay attention to his gaze, Duan Yi asked seriously: "Why is Peng Cheng's expression so solemn? Is there anything wrong?"

"It's okay." Tomorrow, he smiled at Duan Yi in a spring breeze, and when he looked back at Peng Cheng, his eyes instantly became threatening, "I have played this game for so long, and I believe in your acting skills. Pay attention to expression management. Take it easy. Or tonight—”

"You threatened me and wanted me to face you easily!" Peng Cheng complained, "You are really a bully! You are insane! It is outrageous!"

Ming Ming calmly said: "The soldiers who bring you food are all people under me."

After a while, Peng Cheng rubbed his face vigorously. Although the corner of his mouth was still twitching slightly, he tried his best to smile and look towards tomorrow. "Last night there were indeed some strange things here. The two senior brothers followed Daguang's orders and ground several kinds of stones in the yard. The powder they got was different colors... In addition, they also made some flowers and leaves. Squeeze around, and the things that are squeezed out are also of different colors."

"So..." Ming Ming frowned, "They are making paint?"

"Hey, I never figured it out, you, what you said, it's a bit similar! Yes, they are making paint!" Peng Chengyang pointed to a place, "Those small wooden barrels are filled with different paints. .”

On the side, Duan Yi watched the two talking for a while, then turned his attention to the two senior brothers.

The two of them didn't go to chant scriptures immediately today, one was carrying grain in the yard, and the other was chopping firewood.

During the process, Duan Yi also heard the second senior brother say: "Okay, almost, I'm going to the market in the capital to buy vegetables now."

The younger brother reminded him: "Be careful, don't miss any dishes."

Taking a look at the weight of the firewood, Duan Yi stepped forward and asked, "Are you preparing for the fire at noon? You need so much firewood, and you have to go to buy food in the capital? Do you want a treat? Or is Daguang coming back?" ?”

"It doesn't matter about you." The younger brother lowered his head and said without looking at Duan Yi.

The junior brother is not talkative and has a tight tongue; while the second senior brother probably suffered a loss before and was beaten by Da Guang, so he is unwilling to say anything more at the moment.

Duan Yi couldn't find out anything, and when he finished communicating with Peng Cheng tomorrow, he gave Wu Junlan and the others a wink, and everyone left the yard together.

"Specially buy vegetables and prepare paint..." Duan Yidao, "It seems that we reasoned well before. We have guests coming tonight."

"This person...could it be Xiaoge, Loulan's bride?" Yun Hao couldn't help sighing as he walked out of the earthen wall of the courtyard, "Of course I bought vegetables to wait for the princess. But paint...what's the matter with paint?"

"I don't know, I can only guess, maybe he will draw a body. You two are new here, I don't know. But Jun Lan knows that in the last dungeon, we have seen a few magical brushes." Duan Yidao .

"You mean... there are such brushes in the real world outside the painting?" Wu Junlan was surprised, "Could it be possible that he drew a body, and the body can really be the same as an ordinary person? Then, then he used the head of the princess to attract the little girl. Song's soul... in the end, his goal is to revive Xiaoge?"

"It's just a guess. You see, these two brothers are already preparing lunch for the resurrected." Duan Yi thought for a while, "We have seen records about Xiaoge's cemetery in the world 4000 years later, that is the sun The tomb. But I asked tomorrow to inquire, and the tomb where the general buried Xiaoge hastily before is not the tomb of the sun. This shows that...someone will indeed bury Xiaoge again."

Bai Sinian couldn't help saying: "Then we now..."

Duan Yi stepped into the desert: "Find Daguang, or wait for him to come back. Let's take a sneak peek to see if he really knows how to draw. Then we can see the true face of that pen. And I think... I'm sure I can handle him. With the painting that takes us through."

The author has something to say: 1. It is not a simple resurrection story, it can be combined with the previous dungeon to open up brain holes~

2. I have learned from other authors that it is best not to involve religious issues, especially monks like Daguang, so I will revise the entire copy of "Skull Wall" recently. For Buddhist-related issues, I will directly change it to Zhang Zhuong can teach.So there may be update prompts caused by frequent chapter revisions, sorry for the inconvenience!

The new chapter update is still at 9:[-] every night~
