Chapter 1217 Restricted Area
Chapter 1217 Restricted Area
They hold high positions of power.
Many people want them dead, but at the same time, many people also want them alive.
This substitute was prepared by the Dragon King's subordinates.
Cheng Luofeng originally wanted to refuse, but just when he was about to send the person back, something happened in the Six States of Shenwu.
"The Six States of Shenwu were originally a heritage site handed down from ancient times, or you can simply believe that there are many treasures and dangers buried underneath this place."
“Most of the families that stay here have a mission.”
"The mission of many people is to guard the forbidden area at the bottom of the land under your feet."
Song Mingyi looked at Cheng Luofeng with some confusion: "Restricted area?"
She had never heard anything like it.
Cheng Luofeng nodded sadly, his eyes filled with regret and pain that they could not understand.
He took a sip of tea, slowed down, and then spoke.
"There are many martial arts secrets there, but also many dangers. Whether it's a vicious beast or a super virus, they are all sealed down there. Over the years, it has become an iron wall that no one can enter."
"but……"
Whenever this but came out, Song Mingyi and Lu Shenxing knew that something bad was going to happen.
Perhaps, this is the truth behind the disappearance of the Dragon King.
Hongsu once said that the Dragon King left to "search" for something.
Cheng Luofeng: "But that year, the door of the restricted area had a crack. This door was made of special materials back then, led by the Lu family, so there is only one way to close the crack, and that is to find a special material from the burial ground back then."
"Only a few people knew about this. After I explained everything, I went to look for it myself. Later..."
Cheng Luofeng calmly put down the teacup and said, "Later, I was ambushed and the body double was shot and killed as if it was me. I escaped under their cover."
“I’ve been here for many years.”
Song Mingyi: "Then why do you..."
Why don't you go out?
Cheng Luofeng knew what she wanted to ask, and he smiled bitterly and stretched out his hand.
I saw dense black lines on the snow-white palm, like cracks in the earth.
They are linked layer by layer, interlocking, like burnt porcelain, full of cracks.
This is not something that humans should have.
After just one look, Song Mingyi fell silent.
Even she couldn't see the disease in Cheng Luofeng at first glance.
Song Mingyi recalled everything in the medical book and murmured, "This is... the curse of life and death."
Cheng Luofeng was surprised: "You even know all this, you are very knowledgeable."
It seems that the younger generations still have a promising future.
The name of the Curse of Life and Death sounds unusual.
Lu Shenxing's heart gradually became shrouded in a cloud of gloom. There was actually someone who could even harm the Dragon King. Who could this person be?
Cheng Luofeng looked at the lines on his hand without much concern and smiled faintly: "People who are cursed like this will not live long, and I can't see the sun either."
If you see the sunlight, you will die.
If I could survive here, maybe I could live a few more days.
Song Mingyi knew it very well.
This curse of life and death is not really a spell, but a poison, a combination of the famous witch's curse of the time, the two poisons complement each other.
It cannot see the light and is immersed in a pain all year round that is unbearable for ordinary people, gnawing at its tendons, bones and meridians day and night.
Generally, the poison will cause death, and there is no cure.
What was written in that medical book was that the patient had these extremely scary black lines on his body, which were like a spell, densely packed and entwined all over the body.
Song Mingyi always thought it was a legend.
Until now...
There was nothing she could do.
She looked carefully and found that the poison on Cheng Luofeng's hand had spread to his entire body, and the black lines were very deep. He was already on the verge of death.
Even if they didn't come, Cheng Luofeng would be completely dead in about two weeks.
Song Mingyi was silent for a long time.
Lu Shenxing looked into Cheng Luofeng's eyes: "Who hurt you?"
He thought that even if he couldn't save this senior, he should at least avenge him to repay his life-saving grace today.
Cheng Luofeng smiled in relief and looked at Song Mingyi and Lu Shenxing meaningfully: "You have already met him, right? Since you are here to participate in the Dragon King Contest, there is no reason why you haven't seen him."
Song Mingyi blurted out: "Could it be..."
Before he could finish the second half of his words, Cheng Luofeng calmly answered, confirming Song Mingyi's guess: "It's Sheng Long. My subordinate."
They are subordinates, but also brothers.
Cheng Luofeng actually couldn't understand why he and Sheng Long had come to this point.
To the point where he is willing to sacrifice himself to seize power, fame, or profit?
Their friendship of life and death, their years of affection, are these not as important as fame and fortune?
Song Mingyi opened her lips and said, "...I'm sorry."
"fine."
Cheng Luofeng smiled generously, as if he didn't care at all: "It's been so long, no matter how much resentment there is, it has dissipated. It's good that I, a dying man, can save you here. Maybe everything is arranged in the dark..."
Lu Shenxing said solemnly: "Senior, when we get out, we will avenge you."
Cheng Luofeng smiled and said, "Don't you want to ask about the Dragon King's fight first?"
After he finished speaking, Song Mingyi and Lu Shenxing looked at each other at the same time, with a hint of sadness in their eyes.
If they still don’t know that Ming Jinyan has already colluded with the upper echelons of the Six States of Shenwu at this point, then they are stupid.
Although I don't understand how Ming Jinyan convinced that person to escort him, but...
Lu Shenxing said calmly: "Even if there is no way out, we can still find a way out. Since we are all risking our lives, the gamble is not over yet."
He is still alive.
Therefore, he was destined to attack Ming Jinyan again.
No matter whether Ming Jinyan is the Dragon King or not!
He wants revenge!
Cheng Luofeng admired him and said, "You have guts! You have no regrets even though you are in danger of death. You have a good character. A normal person would have given up at this point, but you encountered setbacks and rose to the challenge head-on."
This kind of young generation with a sense of justice is what the Six States of Shenwu deserve...
Cheng Luofeng: "You guys can rest here for a while, about a week. There are plenty of medicines here, and there are healing hot springs. I think you will be able to go out after a week."
Of course this would be impossible if it happened outside.
But this is the Shenwu Six Prefectures, and Song Mingyi and Lu Shenxing are stronger than ordinary people due to their martial arts training. Coupled with medical skills and medicinal herbs, it is natural for them to recover quickly.
Song Mingyi and Lu Shenxing said at the same time: "Thank you."
Song Mingyi thought for a moment and asked again: "Senior, do you know the current situation up there?"
Cheng Luofeng: "Ming Jinyan has become the Dragon King. You should have guessed it."
Song Mingyi and Lu Shenxing were silent.
"but……"
Cheng Luofeng smiled and changed the subject: "I have something good here. After you two recover from your injuries, do you want to learn it?"
