Reincarnation Paradise
Chapter 2207 Guidance
The candle flickers, and after entering the black mist, the flames on the white fat wax emit a misty white light, dispersing the nearby black mist, which also makes people feel peaceful.
The white fat wax has two functions, one is to dispel the black mist, and the other is to stabilize the mood. The second effect is basically not felt by Su Xiao. Swordsmanship cultivates the mind, and his willpower attribute is very high. The two are added together. , directly ignore the second effect of removing the white fat wax.
Su Xiao walked in the black mist passage. The passage opened by the white fat wax was only two meters high and one meter wide. It was very cramped. If you have claustrophobia, you need to pinch someone to rescue you at this time.
The black mist passage was not only cramped, but also quiet. It would have been better if it had been quiet. After Su Xiao walked forward for a while, murmurs came from the black mist on both sides. This small sound could not be heard at all.
The white wax can only burn in the black mist for 20 minutes. If Su Xiao cannot get out of the black mist or find a wooden house within 20 minutes, he will be trapped here and die from the erosion of the black mist.
However, even if I want to go faster now, the candlelight is a bit slow in dispersing the black fog, so I can only walk at a normal speed.
The wax oil slipped from Su Xiao's fingers and dropped to the ground without leaving any traces. Looking back, there were a string of wax oil dripping traces along the way, and there was also a shining white light.
After walking forward for 3 minutes, Su Xiao stopped and raised his right arm. In Su Xiao's team, this gesture meant silence.
Slight footsteps came from the front, and an oil lamp appeared in front. A large piece of black fog was dispersed by the oil lamp.
A hunchbacked old woman came over. She was holding an oil lamp, wearing an old gray robe, and carrying an equally old square wooden box. Her white hair was messy and bifurcated, and her mouth had been completely cut. Sewn to death.
Boom, boom~
The old woman tapped the oil lamp with the bone stick in her hand, and the silk thread sewing her lips was pulled out of her lips as if they were alive, twisting around her mouth like a black worm.
"Young man, do you want to buy a candle?"
The old woman's voice was dry and difficult, but strangely, it didn't make people feel bored.
"what price."
After Su Xiao saw the old woman, although she wanted to get the other party's oil lamp, it was a question of whether she could defeat her. No, after provoking her, she didn't even have the chance to make a strategic retreat.
"A shadow stone, a white fat wax."
The hunchbacked old woman untied the wooden box behind her. After opening it, dozens of white wax sticks were neatly placed inside, which looked very rich.
Su Xiao was hesitant. The white wax was too expensive. For the dead, a shadow stone equaled a certain degree of freedom. Even if they could not escape from the death house, they would not be imprisoned in a wooden house of thirty or forty square meters. Inside the house, one can imagine what the dead are willing to pay for this freedom.
And this hunchbacked old woman, as soon as she opened her mouth, exchanged a shadow stone for a piece of white wax. It would be a bit of a loss if she exchanged it. If she didn't exchange it, when the white wax in her hand burned out, everything would be over. The three shadow stones left behind, There was no chance of being put into the coffin.
Su Xiao's luck was up and down. When it was good, the European emperor would gnash his teeth and shed tears of envy. When his luck was bad, the Black Chief would laugh out loud with joy.
Therefore, he was not sure that he would be able to find the wooden house in the black mist before a stick of white fat wax burned out.
"Change one."
"As you wish, young man."
The hunchbacked old woman took out a stick of white fat wax and handed it to Su Xiao. Su Xiao also took out a shadow stone.
Just as the transaction was completed, the hunchbacked old woman suddenly grabbed Lidya Su's wrist.
"Gon Kai!"
The hunchbacked old woman's voice was not loud, but her eyes were wide open, her gray hair was flying in the wind, and her aura was so strong that Brother Ax and Dragon Hunter were simply cute little animals compared to her.
Su Xiao had seen another such a strong old woman, an old woman from the demon race. It was said that she was a monster from the demon race. Even if she went to war with other races, she would not ask for help from the other party.
The hunchbacked old woman's hair slowly fell down, and the sound of escaping quickly came from the surrounding black mist.
The hunchbacked old woman let go of Su Xiao's wrist and patted Su Xiao's arm.
"They will be attracted by the candlelight. Be careful. When you have fear in your heart, they will eat you up."
"oh."
"Don't worry, they won't dare to come again before the candle burns out. If you go in that direction, you will gain more. Two sticks of white wax are enough for you to go..."
Before the hunchbacked old woman finished speaking, the black silk thread around her mouth passed through the hole in her lips and sewed her mouth shut.
The Silent One shouldn't have given hints, but once he bought the white wax from her, she would bear the pain of soul suture and give the buyer a hint, because a piece of white wax is not worth a shadow stone. This is the compensation given by her as a voiceless person.
The hunchbacked old woman carried the wooden box on her back and walked away with the oil lamp. As soon as she left, the black fog that had been dispersed around her gathered back, and the passage returned to two meters high and one meter wide.
Su Xiao glanced at the white wax in his hand and began to move in the direction pointed by the hunchbacked old woman. It was not because he believed in the other party, but because even if the direction pointed by the other party was dangerous, it was safer than wandering through the black mist.
Su Xiao was not afraid of danger. What he was most worried about was that he would not be able to find anything in the black mist, and would eventually be eroded to death by the black mist. That would be the most uncomfortable thing.
But he was also worried about another situation, that is, after he arrived in the direction pointed by the hunchbacked old woman, the other party was waiting for him and asked: 'Young man, would you like a piece of white wax? ’
The murmurs in my ears would occasionally appear, but after meeting the hunchbacked old woman, the frequency of the murmurs was significantly reduced, and they were short-lived, lasting only two or three seconds each time before disappearing.
After walking forward for nearly 16 minutes, the first stick of white wax in Su Xiao's hand burned out, and he lit the second stick. There were only 20 minutes left.
"Young man, you have gone astray."
The voice of the hunchbacked old woman came from the black fog. Hearing this voice, Su Xiao stopped.
"Another stick of white fat wax."
Su Xiao tentatively spoke. As long as the hunchbacked old woman replied, he could at least tell whether the other party was a friend or an enemy.
"Don't waste the Shadow Stone, it's too precious."
The voice of the hunchbacked old woman disappeared.
Su Xiao's thinking never stopped for a moment. He considered it for a moment and said, "Aren't you sorry that you didn't become the master of the Death House?"
"..."
The hunchbacked old woman seemed to have gone away. Seeing this, Su Xiao continued to walk in the direction that the hunchbacked old woman pointed before.
"Of course...sadly, have a safe trip, young man."
The light of the oil lamp gradually faded away.
After Su Xiao moved forward again for 14 minutes and 22 seconds, he stopped because a wooden wall appeared two meters in front of him.
As Su Xiao approached the wooden wall, he discovered that it was actually a wooden house.
Along the wall of the wooden house, Su Xiao quickly found the door of the wooden house. He pressed his hand on the wooden door and slowly pushed it open.
Crunch~
The wooden door was pushed open, and candlelight slowly lit up the room.
When Su Xiao pushed open the wooden door completely, he saw a woman whose neck, wrists, and ankles were shackled with iron shackles.
On the wooden table next to the woman, there was a piece of white wax as thick as an arm and nearly one meter long. Baha was stunned when he saw it. He felt that this toy could no longer be called a candle.
Not only that, next to this oversized white wax, there is also a short knife and a gemstone. Visual inspection shows that this is at least a Holy Spirit-level quality gemstone.
