Chapter 42: True and False
How to distinguish between truth and illusion? If this room and the prophecy in the prophet’s stone box are both illusions created by the corpse-scented magic potatoes, when did this illusion start?
I think my brain can’t cope with this kind of complicated problem, if Shirley Yang can help to analyze it would be good, I and the fat man’s brain together, also can’t top her half.
However, I think the “corpse incense magic potatoes” to create illusions so that we kill each other, but also just speculation, the magic flower is really powerful, in the ghost cave on the stone beams of the scene, let me still shocked, but I do not have 100% certainty that the prophet’s prophecy is a trap.
Fatty saw me again lost focus, pushed me: “What’s wrong old Hu, recently how you always two eyes straight? Are we still going to clean up this American girl?”
I asked Fatty to keep an eye on Prof. Chen, and leaned down to ask Shirley Yang: “You said that your grandfather was a backdoor fighter before he went to the US, how can I believe you when there is no proof?”
Shirley Yang stared at me and said hatefully, “Stinking thief, you love to believe or not …… I have my grandfather’s relics hanging around my neck, you will know once you look at it.”
“Relic?” Can’t it be that it’s a gold touching talisman? I really see her neck hanging two necklaces, reach out and pull out a look, one is a cross, the other is really a Sichuan mountain armor claws made of “touch gold talisman”.
This thing in the world is extremely secret, grave robbers are not everyone has, and even most of the grave robbers have never seen this thing, the object because of the people and divided into noble and lowly, the value of this touching the gold talisman itself, and not expensive, fell on the ground, may pick up rags are lazy to pick up, but for the grave robbers who have passed down the name from one generation to the next, this is a priceless treasure, which symbolizes a kind of seniority.
I picked up Shirley Yang’s gold talisman and scrutinized it carefully, people have to die than people, goods have to be thrown than goods, compared to her gold talisman, the two that Dajinya gave to Fatty and I simply can’t be wanted.
Shirley Yang’s gold talisman at a glance know is the ancient things of the later Han Dynasty, talisman on the “touch gold” two seal characters, strokes strong and majestic simple, ancient meaning, is made of the sharpest claws of the ChuanShanJia, like a black crystal like slightly transparent, although the age of a long time, half of the wear and tear of the traces of no, claw root locking a circle of gold line, carved with the body of the evil Flying tiger pattern.
And I and the fat man’s two, and this a comparison, true and false immediately distinguish, obviously is artificial do old, the selection of material technology can not be compared. Damn, Dajinya this grandson, take fake goods blind us ah, I said how never worked.
I took Shirley Yang’s gold talisman in my hands for a long time, a little love, can not put down, really do not want to return her.
Shirley Yang shouted: “Quickly return me, want to harm the life is just, but also want to seek money together not?”
I put the gold talisman and hang back to Shirley Yang’s neck: “Since your grandfather is also inverted bucket, why do you have a mouthful of a tube us called stinking thief, you are not even your grandfather and also scolded, so deal with you, but also for a reason.” Then in the second layer of stone box on the stone painting prophecy, originally told Shirley Yang, and finally said to her: “all this may be the corpse incense magic taro created death illusion, but in the absence of certainty before temporarily can not release you.”
Shirley Yang after hearing this, her face slightly eased, “Then you quickly think of some ways, you think being tied up by you guys is very comfortable, turn around and let you also taste the taste.”
I stood up in the room walked back and forth a few steps, staring at the second layer of stone box on the stone painting, really do not dare to act rashly, if this prophecy is not a hallucination, but really, then if not kill a person to open the second layer of stone box, the evil spirit will immediately appear to kill all of them, I feel now than stepping on a landmine is more difficult to step on a landmine big deal to blow up their own deaths, the prophecy is true or false, the relationship between the four lives, it is difficult to choose. It’s hard to decide whether this prophecy is true or not.
Professor Chen crazy, Shirley Yang and a little suspicious, I had to discuss with Fatty, I told him my deduction, knowing that he could not help, but still hope to find someone to share the pressure on the shoulders.
Fatty listened and nodded: “Oh, it’s fucking so, I understand, you are worried that we are still in the dog tail flower created by the illusion, you told me ah, such a big thing, I immediately give you solve it.”
I wondered, “You can tell? This matter is not the same as a child’s play, can not play around ah, a chess wrong, we will lose everything.”
Fatty did not say, raised his hand and gave me a slap, he shot very quickly, I was not prepared, was hit squarely, face hot pain.
I was about to send do, but heard the fat man asked, “How is it? Does it hurt?”
I rubbed my face: “Damn, son hit the old man, against you, but also pain or not, I hit you a slap you try to know whether it hurts or not.” Words finished, immediately thought, right, if you can feel the pain, it is not in the illusion, it seems that we are not controlled by that corpse incense magic potatoes.
I turned back to ask Shirley Yang, a glance at the second layer of the stone box on the stone paintings produced changes, I rushed over to take a closer look, but saw the three pairs of stone paintings slowly fuzzy, disappeared, leaving only a blank a small stone box, the stone box on the lid, sealing cowhide lacquer, in order to long-term preservation of the valuables inside.
Then look at the first layer of stone box, no change at all, a picture are prophets prophecy, the last is still painted with four people to open the first floor of the stone box of stone paintings.
What’s going on here? Could it be that there is truth and falsehood? I pulled the fat man over, let him see what is on the second layer of stone box, the fat man said is not still the three stone paintings?
I raised my hand and gave him a slap: “Look again, there are still stone paintings?”
The fat man covered his face and said, “Hey …… this …… is not there now, fuck, really fucking living hell, let me see what the fuck is here.” After saying this, he reached out and pulled the second layer of the stone box open.
I was shocked, “Your hand is also too fast, let you take a look, did not let you do anything else.” However, after the second layer of the stone box was opened, nothing happened, the four people were all fine, and nothing happened to the evil spirits to kill them.
Based on my experience, we were indeed controlled by the “Corpse Fragrance Magic Taro” vision, the power of this magic flower is far beyond our estimation, it is not only on the stone beams of the ghost cave to create illusions.
At that time I want to rush through the stone beam rescue Sa Dipeng, fell into its illusion trap, then fat man and Shirley Yang to save me back, then I looked back, the corpse fragrant magic taro originally closed together the petals, all open, facing us.
From that time onwards the scope of the illusion of the corpse incense magic taro has expanded, after our searchlight extinguished, there are a lot of black snakes, according to the condition of the judgment at that time, the five of us, two can not walk, in the group of snakes under siege, but no one was bitten by the snakes, this is really a miracle, it seems now, those snakes should be all false illusion.
The Corpse Scented Magic Taro created the illusion of so many black snakes attacking, was trying to force us into the cracks of the mountain and bury ourselves alive inside, not expecting us to escape further and further in the cracks, and unintentionally escaped into the prophet’s tomb.
Although this stone devil flower is powerful, the scope of its control has its limit after all, too far away from us, it is no longer able to create too powerful phantom, so it changed the structure of the simplest stone paintings, tempting us to kill each other.
And the horror of the corpse incense magic taro is that it is never through the human five senses to create illusions, as long as you have seen it a glance, remembered its demonic color, within a certain distance, will be confused by it, just the farther the distance, the more the power of this illusion is smaller.
Even if one or two people survive in the end, they will have a mental breakdown because they killed their own companions with their own hands, then the secret of the Queen of Jingjie will never be known, it’s really fucking poisonous ah.
By this time, Fatty had already taken out what was in the second stone box, it was an ancient book made of sheepskin, I guessed that the Prophet’s revelation, as well as the lost ancient kingdom of the Jingjie, and the secret of the Ghost Cave, were all in this book.
