The power brought by mysterious characters

  The deeper Liao Dongfeng understood, the more he knew, and he gradually found a way to help the Corpse Immortal escape.

  Although the Corpse Immortal can move freely between the inner and outer worlds, he ultimately returns here because an intangible force has imprisoned his pre-birth soul in this space. Even if he leaves the coffin with inscriptions, it will be of no use. In short, the Corpse Immortal himself is the core and key to all the deadly mechanisms here. If he can be eliminated, entering the underground palace will be a straightforward path.

  "The idea that you ignore my existence has occurred for the third time, I warn you not to have a next time, otherwise I will ensure that your companions will be reduced to nothing in an instant."

  Listening to the warning of the Corpse Immortal, Liao Dongfeng also let out a breath, but that Corpse Immortal didn't drop a single bit and swallowed all the air into his belly, putting on an extremely delicious look. At this time, Liao Dongfeng suddenly exclaimed "Ah", the Corpse Immortal also smelled the bloody smell, his pupils suddenly turned red, and his ferocious face was exposed without any cover.

  "Dongzi, be careful." Peng Jianjun shouted from a distance, but in just an instant, a massive invisible force suddenly appeared, and before he could even finish his warning, he was sent flying into the darkness.

  Liao Dongfeng heard Peng Jianjun's warning, and as soon as he turned his head around, the icy claws of the corpse fairy grasped his neck. He then heard the corpse fairy ask: "What are you doing?"

  "Accidentally, accidentally scratched his finger." Liao Dongfeng said with difficulty.

  "Don't worry, that fatty is fine. If you don't hurry up, he might really be in trouble. This is the last warning to you." After saying this, Corpse Immortal lightly touched the blood stain left by Liao Dongfeng on the coffin lid and put it to his lips for a taste. Just as he was savoring the moment, he saw Liao Dongfeng use his still-bleeding finger to make a swift horizontal slash on the coffin lid, and at the same time, he quickly jumped out of the coffin.

  The corpse fairy also felt the danger at this time, but it was too late. The copper coffin was slowly closing in, and a huge suction force appeared, swallowing the corpse fairy inside.

  Screams, ear-piercing screams, Hai Chen and the others couldn't bear this sound, painfully lying on the ground. At this time, Liao Dongfeng held up a red piece of fluorite and loudly asked: "Do you recognize this thing?"

  "Son of a turtle, I'm going to kill you."

  Suddenly, the entire space was filled with a loud rumbling sound from all directions. Far away, Feng Le Tian also shouted loudly: "The location of the underground palace has shifted, he is getting farther and farther away from us, he is sinking down."

  Upon hearing this, Liao Dongfeng immediately presented the fire opal in front of Corpse Immortal.

  At that moment, the small insects inside the firefly stone began to frantically crawl out and also started screaming. The screams quickly drowned out the voice of the corpse immortal.

  At this time, Liao Dongfeng suddenly stuffed the fire opal into the corpse's mouth. Watching his appearance rapidly wither away, the thick black air was slowly absorbed into the fire opal. With a loud bang, the copper coffin lid closed, and the corpse was also sucked in. The surroundings returned to calmness, leaving only Liao Dongfeng's heart still beating violently.

  The corpse fairy was re-sealed in the coffin, strangely, the fire opal that the corpse fairy held in its mouth fell outside the coffin.

  At this time, the fire opal had completely turned black, with a bright sheen in the darkness. Inside the fire opal, the small insects were very excited, greedily devouring the corpse fairy's breath.

  There was another point that could be clearly seen, the number of small insects had already become quite large, and the small fireflies were no longer able to hold them. A large batch of small insects crawled out from the fireflies, crawling along the ground all the way to Liao Dongfeng's right arm, drilling in. Soon, Liao Dongfeng felt a chill throughout his body, and his right arm began to show black fine lines. These black lines also quickly crawled across his entire body along his right arm.

  Until he fainted, Liao Dongfeng didn't say a word. He only felt that the blood in his body had frozen into ice. At this time, Hai Chen rushed over from afar and saw Liao Dongfeng's appearance. She opened her mouth and scolded: "Bastard, are you courting death? Do you know this is corpse poison? You're going to die!"

  Hai Chen kept talking, but didn't dare touch Liao Dongfeng even once. He knew the ferocity of corpse poison, let alone this was the poison of a Corpse Immortal. He hastily called over Feng Leitian and Peng Jianjun to discuss countermeasures, but ultimately got an answer that was to wait. Either wait for Liao Dongfeng to take his last breath and then burn him away, or wait for him to become the next Corpse Immortal, hoping that by then he could still recognize these companions.

  Liao Dongfeng's breathing was getting weaker and weaker, his skin had completely turned black, he kept twitching, and there was still white foam oozing from the corner of his mouth. Feng Le was a kind-hearted person, she couldn't bear to see Liao Dongfeng suffer, suddenly saw her snatch the gun from Peng Jianjun's hand, loaded the bullet, aimed at Liao Dongfeng's forehead, and was about to pull the trigger.

  "Captain, don't shoot, I'm still alive!"

  The voice was very weak, but it was indeed spoken from Liao Dongfeng's mouth. Peng Jianjun heard this and was overjoyed, just thinking of helping him up, when he hastily scolded: "Don't move, otherwise even a god can't save you."

  "I guess I should do something?"

  "You can't do anything, just stay quiet." Hai Chen said while rolling up his sleeves to look at his arm. At this time, no one noticed Hai Chen's action until Liao Dongfeng suddenly sat up from the ground.

  "Don't bother looking, the poison must be removed immediately. Otherwise, we'll have more enemies in the next 20 minutes." Liao Dongfeng said as he pulled Hai Chen's arm over to examine his injuries. After checking, Liao Dongfeng took out a dagger and asked: "Should I do it or will you do it yourself?"

  "I'll take care of it myself! You young punk doesn't know what you're doing!"

  Hai Chen took the knife and, as he spoke, cut a gash on his own arm. Fresh blood flowed out instantly. Then, he took some glutinous rice flour from the medical kit and sprinkled it onto the wound. Next, he tore off a piece of cloth to tightly bandage his arm. After that, he poured a handful of black powder into his mouth.

  At that moment, his face changed color constantly, the blood on his arm also turned black, dripping to the ground drop by drop. Then he sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes, and a steaming black gas emerged from the top of his head.

  "Look at Hai Chen's skillful removal of corpse poison, Liao Dongfeng couldn't help but ask: 'You little rascal is a master? This strange method of detoxification I've never seen before.'"

  "Half a catty and eight taels, who dares to compare with you? We've been poisoned by corpse poison and must get rid of it immediately. You little scamp has eaten all the corpse fairies, at most, you'll just lie on the ground for a while and that's it. What kind of special material are you made of?"

  Liao Dongfeng didn't answer, he took advantage of Hai Chen's momentary distraction to pick up the ghost mask lantern and examine it carefully before saying: "This thing was never yours to begin with, why did you go to such great lengths to take it? Don't you know how dangerous it is? Or have you become unable to get rid of it? And another question, where exactly did my grandfather go? As a master of the jianghu, you should know, shouldn't you?"

  Hai Chen smiled bitterly and said, "You're taking advantage of someone's misfortune, you little scoundrel. Alright, in front of the captain and the soldiers, I'll tell you the whole story. Your grandfather Liao Yang and my father both went to Pamir and experienced that bloody battle, and they both came back alive. They also brought back a Ruban lock each, which is what you're holding in your hand. Later on, my father contracted a strange illness, and I did too. Then I visited the people who went to Pamir with us and found out that they all had the same experience as me, except for one person I couldn't find - your grandfather Liao Yang, who didn't have anything happen to him. So I want to know why."

  "What happened to my grandfather you didn't see with your own eyes, how can you be so sure that nothing happened? My grandfather also contracted the strange disease, but relatively mild, he has been searching for the root cause of the strange disease all along, but when he was about to find it, a fire broke out at home, do you think this is a coincidence? I ask you again, who are the four dead people at the scene of the fire? You should be very clear, right?"

  "They share the same goal as mine, their elders all experienced the Pamir bloodbath and brought back identical Ruban locks, but for some reason, their Ruban locks have all disappeared, only Liao Yang's remains. This mystery has plagued me for a long time, until recently when we encountered the ghost coffin, I felt that the Ruban lock and the ghost coffin are the same product, something that takes root in people's minds. At that time, I subconsciously touched my medical bag, and the result really confirmed my speculation. The Ghost Face Lantern Ruban Lock is attached to our heads, traversing through space and time, maybe we're all wrong."

  Liao Dongfeng thought for a moment before continuing, "Suppose the Rulian Locks are not just one, and their coming and going is temporarily not discussed. Then how did a rusty copper lump bring strange diseases to everyone's body? I saw a sentence in my grandfather's records that said the Rulian Locks are alive, they have life like humans. What do you think of this sentence? Suppose again, there is only one Rulian Lock, but it appears in different places at the same time. If it's really like the ghost coffin, what role does it play? Is it a deliberate deception?"

  The poison in Hai Chen's body had almost been completely eliminated. At this time, he stood up and looked around before speaking.

  Xiao Liang just took a glance at Lu Ban's lock and turned into that ghostly figure, but we've looked at it more than once, right? Why are we fine?

  If what Liao said about the Lu Ban lock being a living thing is true, it's not hard to explain why the living thing attacks selectively. However, many people have seen the Lu Ban lock, not just us two. Many people saw him at the rally in Beijing before, so why didn't anything happen?

  If Rubik's Cube is really intentionally misleading us, then why did he do all this? Just to make us panic? Make us give up treatment? If he wants to hide something forever, why not kill all the people who know the truth and let them come back to tell more people?

  "Let's not talk about it anymore, we came to this place just to find out why. Since the two of you have roughly the same direction, I think we should focus on the matter at hand. We can't solve all the problems at once, and we can't swallow a big fat man in one breath. Besides, even if Old Man Duan's intentions are not pure, he must have had his reasons for pointing us here. Didn't he say those words that the deceased predecessors said before? So I think it's not Rulian Suo who misled us, but rather these people who have experienced it themselves who misled us."

  Feng Le Tian finished speaking, and looked at Liao Dong Feng and Hai Chen's faces one by one. Just as her gaze was about to shift towards Peng Jian Jun, she suddenly discovered with surprise that the bronze coffin lying on the ground had disappeared again.
