Zhou Heng's forced demolitions are not the same as those in the traditional sense.

Under the powerful force enough to destroy a five-story building, the semi-weathered granite blocks covering the surface of the mysterious creature fell apart and fell to the ground, causing shaking.

But Zhou Heng also released the appeasement and delusion power obtained from the Hengshan evil god when he forced the demolition. But I don't feel surprised at all, and I don't have the idea of ​​stepping out of the tent to see what's going on outside.

They sat around as usual, eating and drinking, playing bridge, and telling jokes.

The catastrophe outside has nothing to do with them.

But it is inextricably related to the mysterious creatures under the pyramid-shaped ruins.

Creatures have simple thinking abilities and powerful defensive talents.

Zhou Heng's forced demolition did not hurt it at all, and it activated its nerves that had almost stopped functioning again, sending out confused questions.

【What are you doing?Why are you tearing down my home? 】

"It's not your home that I'm tearing down, it's the cage that binds you."

[What is a cage? 】

"A cage is something that prevents you from moving freely."

【Oh, so this is a prison...】

The mysterious creature simply accepted Zhou Heng's explanation.

When Zhou Heng's power caused all the granite blocks that made up the pyramid-shaped ruins to overflow, the monster shook its huge body that was as soft and shiny as jelly, and slowly raised its "head". "if.

Perhaps because it has lived in the 50-meter-high pyramid-shaped ruins built of granite blocks for thousands of years, the body surface of the mysterious creature has neither tissue that can be called skin nor hair, and is smooth and translucent. shine.

Its "head" does not have common sense organs such as eyes, nose, mouth, ears, etc., and countless flesh-colored protrusions emerge from the wrinkled surface.

When the mysterious creature comes into contact with the outside world, the flesh-colored protrusions on its head will squirm accordingly, feeling the strange world.

[Is this the world outside the cage?a little cold……】

"You have been living in a cage, and it is inevitable that you will feel uncomfortable when you first come into contact with the world outside the cage."

【Oh……】

The mysterious creature continued to communicate with Zhou Heng with his mind.

It is a talking monster, although its size is extremely large, and its physical characteristics are completely different from human cognition.

Zhou Heng hopes to see the things hidden in his body by the mysterious creature, so the communication with the mysterious creature is full of patience and gentleness.

He told the mysterious creature: "Half a year ago, an artificial moon appeared in the sky specially to absorb the aura of the earth. Its coverage area is very wide, and its power is also rising. At most, for a month, the entire earth will be affected by it, leading to irreversible destruction. .”

[What is the earth? 】

The mysterious creature asked straightforwardly.

Zhou Heng: "The earth is the sum of everything that is crushed under your feet, surrounds you, and flies over your head."

【It turns out that this is called Earth...】

"If the earth is destroyed, all living things that inhabit the earth will die."

[It’s okay, I can sleep, and I can live on the earth——]

"One hundred million years?"

Zhou Heng interrupted the mysterious creature bluntly, and reminded: "According to my calculations, the damage to the earth caused by the artificial moon will last at least [-] million years. Although you have a long life, you may not be able to sleep for [-] million in one night." Years later, isn't it?"

[I can... can... maybe...]

The mysterious creature is obviously a little uncertain.

Zhou Heng further persuaded the mysterious creature: "Perhaps you can wake up after sleeping for [-] million years, but during your [-] million years of sleeping, the world will undergo countless changes that are beyond your expectations. Besides, who can guarantee that you will never wake up?" Is the world a hundred million years from now a world where you can survive? Who can guarantee that you will not encounter any danger of death during this hundred million years of sleep?"

【It seems... indeed... also...】

"Sleeping for [-] million years and expecting that the world will be better after [-] million years is the worst compromise," Zhou Heng said, "I am more inclined to seize the present, change the present, and sleep for [-] million years as the last resort. "

【Oh……】

The mysterious creature is slow and meek. Because of Zhou Heng's words, it gradually realized that the compromise of sleeping for [-] million years is full of dangers, but even so, it still did not make any decisions or actions.

It was just a soft and shiny body wriggling like jelly, wrapping Zhou Heng loosely.

[Can you change it? 】

"If you are willing to help me, I have a way."

Zhou Heng raised his head and spoke bluntly.

The mysterious creature continued to writhe slimy and wet.

It is so simple that thinking becomes a luxury.

Zhou Heng raised his hand, stroked its jelly body, and said, "The fate of the world is in your hands. Let me touch your heart and find what I want, okay?"

[My heart?what do you want? 】

The mysterious creature fell into confusion again.

Every sentence that came out of Zhou Heng's mouth contained complex meanings that it could not understand at all.

It had to wriggle, painfully, to try to understand.

Zhou Heng then explained: "There is another living body in your body. He is the fundamental reason why I have traveled far and wide to find you. I want to meet him."

【Oh……】

The mysterious creature nodded cutely, and slowly released it, revealing a large five-meter-long and three-meter-wide bronze coffin wrapped in its body and decorated with gold, silver and jade.

【Is this what you want? 】

"Not sure, because I didn't know what it looked like beforehand."

While speaking, Zhou Heng took out the Yellow Emperor's compass chariot from the First Emperor.

Beep!Beep!Beep!

The Yellow Emperor's steering car made a sharp sound.

From this, Zhou Heng determined that the bronze coffin with the mysterious creature wrapped around his body was at least what Emperor Shihuang wanted.

He walked up to the bronze coffin with the three-headed dog, looked up, down, left, and right, and found that the gold, silver and jade inlaid on the surface of the bronze coffin were not purely decorations. If you study carefully, you will find that these decorations are actually telling stories.

A story about immortality and destruction.

The person who wrote stories with gold and silver on the surface of the bronze coffin is named Xu Fu!

……

……

"--what!"

Feng Ling, who was walking down the passage, heard a terrified cry from ahead, and hurried forward to support the crumbling archaeologist: "What happened?"

The archaeologist, who has been with the dead bones all year round and has no sense of the corpse, pointed to a red lacquered box in front of him and replied tremblingly: "...it...it...it's still alive! The things inside are still alive!"

"what?"

"me……"

Archaeologists can't tell.

Because the things in the box are beyond human common sense, even well-informed archaeologists feel horrified and disturbed.

Feng Ling didn't believe in this evil, or in other words, people with high skills are bold.

He walked to the red lacquer box whose brass lock had oxidized and decayed, and pushed hard——

Squeak!

A skeleton covered with skin and muscles that are so thin that you can break it came into view!

As the archaeologists who were frightened by it said, it is still alive!

Curled up in a red-painted box, it's still alive!

Under the thin skin and muscles are intact internal organs, which move steadily as it breathes.

Feng Ling felt his scalp go numb.

You know, Beijing City has a history of 300 years, which means that the ancient city under Beijing City has been buried in the soil for at least 300 years!

For 300 years without eating, drinking or breathing the fresh air, he is still alive!

This... this thing...

Black lightning flashed in Feng Ling's mind!

He remembered!

He's seen something like it!

In the short video that Young Master Fusu sent to Zhou Heng.

Those who live in the Efang Palace suddenly have the behavior of molt and rebirth due to the influence of the artificial moon——

the ancients!

Thinking of this, Feng Ling immediately took out his mobile phone to record a short video of the non-human non-ghost creature in front of him, and sent it to Zhou Heng, Wu Gangcheng and others: "I have successfully entered the dungeon. This is the creature I found in the dungeon."

Zhou Heng was not online, and Feng Ling's video was automatically sent offline.

Wu Gangcheng immediately forwarded the received video to colleagues in the department who specialize in dealing with undead creatures for study.

Intuition told him that this strange thing was not just a simple creature.

……

... The story on the surface of the bronze coffin is divided into five sections. The contents of the first three sections are very simple. During the story, the situation suddenly became weird.

because--

The last two stories have the same purpose as the current crisis!

Use a large number of rare things to create a huge magic weapon that can crazily absorb the spiritual power of nature, send the magic weapon into the atmosphere, absorb all the power in the world, and achieve the dream of longevity with the cruel method of fishing in a dry lake!

Xu Fu obviously did not agree with such a cruel thing.

At the end of the fifth story, the protagonist of his story finally fails, ages madly, and becomes a blood man who can only curl up in a bronze coffin.

The coffin in front of him is the final resting place of the protagonist of the story.

Zhou Heng couldn't help falling into conflict.

Open the coffin on the spot and get the truth of the story immediately?

Take the entire coffin back, scan and study the coffin with modern technology to ensure that the contents are always under control?

In theory, he should choose the latter, making sure everything is under control.

but--

How can we take away the bronze coffin, which weighs several tons by visual inspection, intact?

What's more, according to the records left by Xu Fu, although the creature in the coffin was a failure of the longevity plan, it is still alive today, and the mysterious creature wrapped in the bronze coffin was originally a small animal raised by the creature in the coffin when it was young. After the residue of the product, it turned into this little monster with abnormal appearance and extremely dull thinking.

It doesn't remember its past with the creature in the bronze coffin, but subconsciously still cares about the bronze coffin, and forbids any power to take away the bronze coffin.

【Master, what are you hesitating about? 】

Seeing that Zhou Heng seemed hesitant, the three-headed dog took the initiative to ask questions.

Zhou Heng raised his head, pointed to the bronze coffin, and said, "I'm thinking about what to do with the contents inside."

[What's the trouble with this!Just break it apart! 】

The three-headed dog came up with a bad idea.

Zhou Heng shook his head.

If the bronze coffin could be forcibly broken by external force, within thousands of years of being wrapped by mysterious creatures, slight cracks would have appeared on the surface.

[The master thinks that external force cannot break it? 】

The three-headed dog tilted its head to look at Zhou Heng.

Zhou Heng didn't speak.

The mysterious creature felt Zhou Heng's confusion, and pressed its head as soft as jelly, with innocence.

【what's on your mind?Look like you're bothered? 】

"I was wondering...if...I mean if...if I were to take this thing, would you allow me to take it?"

[Why take it away? 】

"Because I'm going to open it."

[If you want to open it, open it now, why do you have to take it away and open it again? 】

A simple little monster can't understand Zhou Heng's thoughts.

Zhou Heng: "You have wrapped it in your body for thousands of years, do you know what's inside?"

【I don’t know, but I feel very kind, a kindness that can’t be let go...】

The mysterious creature innocently described its feelings for the bronze coffin.

I don't know what's inside, and I didn't even think about opening it. I just instinctively coiled the thing and protected it, as if it was a part of my body...

After listening to the simple description of the mysterious creature, Zhou Heng felt helpless and even more embarrassed.

The little monster has gradually forgotten the time spent with the creatures in the coffin because of the long time, but subconsciously still wants to protect the coffin and the creatures in the coffin.

"I want to open it in front of you, will you stop me?"

【Won't. 】

"I want to take it away and study it elsewhere, will you stop me?"

【meeting. 】

"why?"

[I don’t know why, but I have always had this thought in my heart, a thought that began to exist a long time ago... This thing can be opened, but it cannot be taken away...]

The mysterious creature described it ignorantly.

Zhou Heng was silent.

The little monster doesn't remember the creature in the coffin at all, but subconsciously believes that the creature in the coffin is still alive and will push the coffin back to resurrect in the near future, so it has such an idea.

Coffins can be opened, but not taken away—

"...I listen to you, open the coffin now." [Oh...]

The little monster twisted its limp body, allowing Zhou Heng to stand in front of the bronze coffin.

The three-headed dog was also clinging to Zhou Heng, and the three heads all looked serious.

Zhou Heng lowered his head, looked at the bronze coffin inlaid with gold, silver and jade, and took a deep breath——

beep beep beep beep

Feng Ling's video message came.

Zhou Heng lowered his head, glanced at the phone, and intentionally ignored it, but accidentally watched the video for a few seconds because it was in autoplay mode, and his face suddenly became stern.

"Things are getting tricky."

【Um?tricky?what's the situation? 】

The three-headed dog looked at Zhou Heng in confusion.

Zhou Heng: "Troublesome is tricky, there is no situation to explain it."

Considering the unstable mobile phone signal in the dense forest, after careful consideration, Zhou Heng gave up the idea of ​​live broadcasting, and let the three-headed dog take the transforming drug to transform into a human form. Holding his mobile phone, Zhou Heng recorded the whole process of Zhou Heng opening the bronze coffin.

"Success or failure depends on one action. You must not make mistakes."

"Master, don't worry, Dahei is like a bright mirror in my heart~"

The three-headed dog brazenly promised, held up the mobile phone, and stood in the position Zhou Heng asked for.

"Considering that there may be some unexpected changes during the opening of the coffin, I will add a protective barrier to you first, which may cause the air to be blocked. You can overcome it."

"It is Dahei's honor to be able to work for the master, there is nothing that cannot be overcome~"

The three-headed dog has a slick mouth.

Zhou Heng raised his hand and wrapped the three-headed dog and the phone together with an enchantment.

Then, he added a barrier between himself and the bronze coffin to ensure that even if an accident occurs when the coffin is opened, it will not immediately affect the ordinary people present——

Zhou Heng reached out and opened the huge bronze coffin lid that weighed a full ton.

boom--

The coffin lid slowly slid open, revealing the mysterious life that had been sealed for nearly 2000 years.

That life could no longer be called life, it was curled up in the blood-red strange potion, its body was as thin as a skeleton, only a thin layer of muscle and skin covered the surface of the bones.

Feeling the sunlight, the monster opened its lashless eyes, and looked at Zhou Heng who was close at hand in horror.

"Wow wow wow!"

It was locked up for so long that it lost the ability to speak, and it let out a terrified cry.

Zhou Heng looked at it quietly, not knowing whether to criticize it for its own fault or to pity its unfortunate status quo.

What's the point of such a long life if it fails and turns into a monster that is neither human nor ghost and hides in a bronze coffin without seeing the light of day?

At this time, the Yellow Emperor's compass car, which was obtained from the First Emperor, hummed again.

Zhou Heng took out the compass car and held it in his palm.

The monster in the bronze coffin seemed to be very afraid of the compass car. Seeing Zhou Heng holding the compass car, he crawled out of the coffin in horror, dragging blood dripping steps, and rushed to Zhou Heng's place to wrap the bronze coffin to prevent accidental opening. Enchantment.

boom!

boom!

boom!

The guy who failed in longevity and turned into a monster hit the barrier with all his strength, but the barrier didn't move at all. On the contrary, the monster's fragile body couldn't withstand such a violent impact, and fine cracks appeared like spider webs.

pat!pat!

The monster's skin began to peel off, revealing paper-thin muscle and yellowed bones covered by muscle.

Zhou Heng couldn't help feeling deeply sad: "You don't hesitate to sacrifice everything to strive for longevity, and now you have gained this inhuman appearance, do you really not regret it at all?"

"regret……"

The monster opened its mouth, its teeth collided, and let out a hoarse roar: "Why should I regret it! I'm alive! I'm alive!"

"Is this called living?"

Zhou Heng couldn't laugh or cry: "In the past, you were so rich and powerful that you mobilized countless materials from all over the world to seek immortality for yourself. Now you can only curl up in a bronze coffin, and you can't even shine on the sun. Most of the time you can't see it." The day is muddy."

"So what! I'm still alive! I'm still alive!"

"Alive? Live in the state of 'alive'?"

Zhou Heng smiled contemptuously, and was about to undo the barrier.

At this time, the monster's body changes.

The skin that was broken due to the impact on the barrier has been completely peeled off, exposing the muscles and bones, and then blood slowly oozes out, covering the surface of the muscles and bones, forming new skin.

Skin that is so fragile that it can be broken by blowing bombs.

And bring severe pain to living things.

"Ahhhh-"

The unbearable monster roared.

Zhou Heng looked at it indifferently, and said slowly: "This is the price of failure in longevity. Life after life will never end."

"no no……"

The monster rolled in agony, its body contorted and convulsed even less like a living thing.

Zhou Heng stretched out his hand towards him.

The monster looked at his hand, with greed and hatred shining in his eyes.

"I don't need your charity! I won't tell you the secrets I know! I want you to suffer forever for not knowing the truth! I want you—err..."

The newborn liquid choked the monster's throat, and he was forced to kneel on the ground coughing violently, curled up into a shrimp.

Zhou Heng: "Why bother?"

"I am proud! I will not submit to anyone!"

The monster declared stubbornly.

It is so majestic and so unyielding that suffering becomes twisted pride.

Zhou Heng was confused and even more regretful.

"Your stubbornness will destroy you."

"Stubborn? What I love the most is always my pride! The pride of being a human being! The pride of the emperor!"

"emperor?"

Zhou Heng was stunned by the words that came out of the monster's mouth.

He thought of a possibility, an extremely absurd but undeniable possibility.

"You are Hu Hai?"

"Hu Hai?"

"Because he didn't get the love of the first emperor, he gradually distorted the tyrant who crazily slaughtered brothers and sisters and tyrannized the people all over the world. The famous Qin Ershi Hu Hai, a joke that has been passed down by word of mouth for more than 2000 years—"

"shut up!"

The monster was stung by Zhou Heng's words, and rushed over like crazy.

The new skin hadn't coagulated well, so his eyes looked as if they would fall out of their sockets at any moment, which was so eerie and terrifying that people couldn't look straight at it.

In fact, if the person standing in front of him hadn't been Zhou Heng, his San value would have already been reduced to zero at this moment because of the monster's unimaginably ugly and frightening face.

"Don't mention that name in front of me! Don't!"

The monster rushed towards Zhou Heng with teeth and claws, wishing to strangle Zhou Heng to death.

Zhou Heng looked at it indifferently, and said slowly: "The Yellow Emperor's Guide Chariot is a gift from the First Emperor."

"what!"

The monster's voice was distorted.

"...Why! Why! Why!"

"Just because I'm not you."

Zhou Heng used gentle words to pierce the monster's few remaining spiritual defenses: "From the beginning to the end, he only likes the eldest son Fusu, and the other children are insignificant to him."

"No! You are talking nonsense! I am his favorite son! He gave me the throne! I am!"

"Since he is his favorite son, why didn't he give you the elixir of life? He even gave the elixir to his favored courtiers and harem, but he didn't give you a chance."

"Because...because..."

"Because he hates you, because you're a worthless piece of shit."

"No! He left Xu Fu to me! He loves me! He loves me so much! He left Xu Fu to me! He asked Xu Fu to refine a new elixir for me! He loves me! He loves me more than anyone Everyone loves me more deeply... loves me..."

The monster Hu Hai gradually collapsed.

It repeats "he loves me" like a madman, and it's so heartbroken that it can't be spelled together.

The bloody reality is in front of it, and it cannot be allowed to continue to deceive itself and others.

"...Why! Why are you doing this to me! Why can't I be your favorite son even though I have won thousands of miles! Father! Father! Why are you doing this to me! Why!"

"If you want to know the answer to the question, why not come with me to the Efang Palace to meet the First Emperor."
