Chapter 243, Helpless childhood
"Don't close it!"
Shi Fuxin took Chu Yao to hide in the underground mausoleum, just about to turn the switch to close the entrance, but was stopped by Chu Yao.
Shi Fuxin looked at him in surprise: "The black-robed guards are still looking for us everywhere, they don't need to close the entrance, they don't need to approach, they can find the strangeness here."
After finishing speaking, he turned the switch involuntarily.
There was a sound of rubbing, the stone door of the mausoleum moved quickly, and the light turned and fell.
Watching the light disappear little by little, Chu Yao's face was full of tension and anxiety, and he said in a panic: "You light the torch first, and it's not too late to turn it off."
Before the words fell, the last ray of light disappeared, and the surroundings fell into darkness.
"Keep your voice down, you won't be afraid to draw the black-robed guard over if you're so loud."
"I tell you to light the torch on the stone wall quickly, hurry up!"
Chu Yao's voice was excited and piercing, as if he had been stimulated by something, and Shi Fuxin was also affected by his emotions: "Why are you so anxious, I'm looking for a torch."
"The torch is on the stone wall, hurry up!" Chu Yao's voice almost collapsed.
Shi Fuxin frowned, touched the torch on the stone wall, opened the torch, and lit the torch with a sound of "Zi".
The pitch-black space was instantly illuminated by fire.
Shi Fuxin turned her head to look at Chu Yao, and found that he was lying on the edge of the stone wall, sweating profusely, and his whole body was limp, like a stranded fish.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Looking at Chu Yao, who still had a look of fear on his face, Shi Fuxin was a little surprised and confused.
Chu Yao tried his best to calm down the flustered and nervous mood, took several deep breaths, looked at Shi Fuxin angrily, and said in a bad tone: "I asked you to light the torch first, why didn't you listen?"
Shi Fuxin frowned: "Chu Yao, I don't know what's wrong with you, but I have to remind you that I don't owe you anything. If you have something to say, don't get angry at me at every turn."
Chu Yao looked at Shi Fuxin, pressed his heart that was still beating violently, closed his eyes and leaned against the wall and became silent.
Shi Fuxin also got angry, snorted coldly, and began to look at the mausoleum and underground palace she was in. Just as she was about to look forward, she heard Chu Yao say in a muffled voice: "I don't like dark rooms."
Shi Fuxin paused, then turned to look at Chu Yao, does this guy have dark claustrophobia? !
Seeing him still limp and powerless, Shi Fuxin's anger subsided a bit: "Can you still go? Let's take a look inside?"
Chu Yao looked at the dark and deep stone road, the oncoming sense of devouring scared him away quickly, and after a while, he looked at Shi Fuxin: "You can't go inside."
Shi Fuxin: "Why?"
Chu Yao was silent: "Do you know why this place is called the Tomb of the Living Dead?" Before Shi Fuxin could respond, she continued, "This is the place where the Dharma of Reincarnation is taught."
"People who have been sucked out of their internal energy will not die for a while, and some of them won't die for a few years, lingering on their last breath, people are neither human nor ghost." He sneered, "This is the cemetery for them waiting to die."
Shi Fuxin frowned: "Is your reincarnation hall a bit evil?"
Chu Yao's expression was light, without too much emotion on his face, he just said: "Everyone takes what they need, it's just a cycle of cause and effect."
Because of the Hall of Reincarnation, he has the opportunity to inherit a supreme internal force. This is his opportunity, and it is also the cause and effect he has to bear.
One day, he will also be drained of his internal energy, and then wait to die in this tomb of the living dead.
When Fu Xin wanted to say something, her complexion changed suddenly, and she quickly stepped forward to help Chu Yao up, pulled out the torch from the stone wall, stuffed it into Chu Yao's hand, and then quickly walked in.
"somebody is coming."
"Can't go inside."
"If you don't go deep, just hide inside for a while."
"Crack~"
The sound of Shimen moving away was heard, Shi Fuxin had no time to say anything, and quickly extinguished the torch.
Almost instantly, Shi Fuxin felt the weight of Chu Yao's entire body pressing on her, and her breathing became rough and messy. It wasn't until light came into the mausoleum that Chu Yao's condition improved.
"Boom~"
Something was thrown in and rolled on the ground.
In just a moment, a rotten smell came to Shi Fuxin and Chu Yao's noses.
After Chu Yao smelled it, his complexion changed drastically. Regardless of his previous instructions and his inability to stay in the dark and narrow space, he pulled Shi Fuxin and strode in.
At the entrance of the mausoleum, several black-robed guards threw three black pills in one after another before stopping.
"What if Chu Yao didn't hide in it?"
"Impossible, we have turned upside down in the tomb valley, only here we haven't found it. Chu Yao knows that we will not easily enter the tomb of the living dead. This is his best hiding place."
"Chu Yao can't fly with wings this time."
"Congratulations to Brother Chu Shen. Chu Yao inherited the inner strength of a supreme master. After you absorb it, you will definitely become one of the best masters in the Hall of Reincarnation."
Several black-robed guards congratulated a young man in his early twenties.
The young man waved his hand modestly: "Chu Yao hasn't caught it yet." Having said that, the excitement and excitement in his eyes couldn't be concealed.
The other black-robed guards looked at each other and lowered their heads to hide the jealousy in their eyes.
"Let's go in, Chu Yao should be the fish on the chopping board."
Chu Shen entered the mausoleum first, followed by the other black-robed guards.
There is only one passage in the mausoleum, and when several people entered, Chu Yao took Shi Fuxin and walked a hundred steps.
As soon as his footsteps stopped, Chu Yao quickly groped on the stone wall, and when he touched a tiny crater, he quickly pressed it down.
In an instant, the floor under their feet sank, and the two fell down together.
Waiting for Chu Shen and the others to come looking for them with torches, there was no one there, so they could only venture deeper into the mausoleum.
"Bang, bang!"
Shi Fuxin and Chu Yao hit the ground heavily, and both of them couldn't help crying out in pain.
The black pill that Chu Shen used was specially prepared by the Hall of Reincarnation to deal with Jue Dian's things. It has strong medicinal properties.
In the narrow stone passage, the poisonous smoke spread quickly and was unavoidable. Even though Shi Fuxin and Chu Yao quickly held their breath, they still inhaled some.
At this moment, although the two are conscious, they have lost control of their bodies.
Once again plunged into the darkness, Chu Yao was instantly overwhelmed by emotions such as tension, fear, helplessness, and dying, whimpering and growling like a person in a nightmare.
Listening to the sound of Chu Yao panicking and collapsing in the dark, Shi Fuxin quickly activated the healing ability to relieve the toxins in the body caused by inhaling the poisonous smoke.
Two quarters of an hour later, when Chu Yao was almost out of breath, Shi Fuxin opened the fire folder with a 'pop' sound.
The faint fire light is like the source of life, bringing vitality to Chu Yao.
Looking at Chu Yao who was drenched all over, as if he had been picked up from the water, Shi Fuxin silently took the torch that he was holding tightly in his hand and lit it.
The flames increased, and Chu Yao let out a heavy breath as if someone had loosened his neck.
Shi Fuxin held up the torch and waited quietly for Chu Yao to recover.
After Chu Yao's breathing became calm, he looked at Shi Fuxin: "How can you move?"
Shi Fuxin: "I am immune to all poisons."
Chu Yao: "."
Shi Fuxin looked at him: "Do you want me to give you needles to help you mobilize your internal strength?" After a pause, "You used to have a riot with your internal power. Once you can mobilize your internal power, you may suffer backlash."
Chu Yao is not afraid of backlash, the pain of backlash. Over the years, he has become numb and used to it. The most urgent thing is to quickly get out of the current predicament: "Okay."
Shi Fuxin took off the hairpin, twisted the pearl on the top of the hairpin, exposing the hollow hairpin stem, and quickly poured out more than a dozen silver needles.
Chu Yao watched silently, his eyes sparkling.
Shi Fuxin gave him a sideways glance, and put needles on him in a leisurely manner: "Young Master Yao, this time we share weal and woe. After we escape, you have to cover me."
Chu Yao looked at her: "Do you need my cover?"
Shi Fuxin: "Of course, why, you don't want to?"
Chu Yao didn't speak.
Shi Fuxin glanced at her mouth, concentrating on administering the needle.
"I'll help you mobilize your internal strength first, and then help you sort out your tendons, so that the backlash you suffer will be lighter."
An hour later, Chu Yao sat up with a painful expression, and then began to practice cross-legged exercises to resist the backlash of internal force.
When his expression calmed down, Shi Fuxin said: "I see that you have a good talent in martial arts, why don't you practice martial arts by yourself, and have to inherit other people's internal strength?"
"If internal strength can be easily absorbed and inherited by others, wouldn't the entire world of martial arts be in chaos?"
"If you think about it, you know that this is not advisable."
Chu Yao was silent for a while, maybe it was because he was weak at the moment, or maybe it was because he was in the punishment room where he suffered so much when he was young, just when Shi Fuxin thought he would not answer, Chu Yao said: "My Sometimes I just want to argue."
Shi Fuxin: "Huh?"
Chu Yao: "The year I entered the Hall of Reincarnation, I was ten years old."
Shi Fuxin looked puzzled: "So?"
Chu Yao looked at her: "Don't you know how the outside world passed on me? When I was ten years old, I coveted my father's maid. I was a lustful hungry ghost and a beast unworthy of human beings."
Shi Fuxin: "So, you entered the Hall of Reincarnation in a fit of anger?"
Listening to these words, Chu Yao looked at Shi Fuxin in surprise: "Do you believe I didn't do any dirty things?"
Shi Fuxin gave an 'um' and gave Chu Yao a look of 'she has a brain'.
Seeing her like this, Chu Yao rarely showed a smile: "It's not because I'm angry, it's because I want to control my own destiny, and I don't want to be tainted and trampled by others at will."
Shi Fuxin thought for a while and said: "Since you didn't do those things, you should come forward to Chen Qing. If you are not capable enough, ask the elders for help."
Chu Yao sneered: "It's useless, no one in the whole palace, except the mother concubine and the younger sister, believes me. The mother concubine is not loved by the father and the king, so she can't help me at all."
"As for the other people in the palace, what they hope most is that there is no one like me in this world. They are the ones who spread the most rumors about me from the outside world."
Shi Fuxin was silent: "Your family is really complicated."
The writing of these two chapters is a bit stuck, deleted, deleted and modified. The male protagonist is a broken child. Many external performances are just to protect himself. I hope the writing is not unpleasant.
