Chapter 639 Jiang Huaian Arson
The Water Official is in charge of "instruments".
The great god Xuanming is in charge of "magic instruments".
When Wu Xian inserted the incense stick, water surged around, mist rose, and red koi leaped into the air. The three largest koi stopped in the air and turned into three magical instruments.
A copper coin, a thin chain with claws and a hairpin.
Money for passing through the secluded place:
A round ancient copper coin with a square hole, placed under the tongue, can communicate with ghosts.
By holding the ghost money under the tongue, one can communicate with nearby ghosts. Each communication will cost one year of one's lifespan.
Soul Lock:
All the tools used by the underworld's ghosts to catch souls can be thrown out with hooks to hook the enemy's souls. Every time they catch the soul, the hook will be shortened by one third of its original length. The success rate of soul-catching depends on the opponent's strength.
Green Phoenix Hairpin:
When attacked, a green phoenix shadow can be transformed into a barrier to block the enemy's attack. If the phoenix is broken, the hairpin will shatter.
Among these three magic weapons, in terms of practicality, the Tongyou Coin can be used to obtain intelligence, which Wu Xian can still afford to pay for one or two years of life. The Qingfeng Hairpin can be used to save one's life, and from the description it can even be used multiple times unless the attack is particularly strong.
But this is the Valley of the Dead, and the place they are going to is a bottomless abyss.
Wu Xian couldn't guarantee that they would definitely encounter ghosts, nor could he guarantee that the Green Phoenix Hairpin would protect him from death after falling, so he made a choice quickly.
The bright red koi jumped into his hand and turned into a chain emitting a cold breath, with a sharp hook at the other end of the chain.
Wu Xian had no expectations for the attack effect of the Soul-Hooking Lock. The most important thing was that this thing could be used to hook onto rocks, so that Wu Xian would not fall at the critical moment.
After getting the Soul-Catching Lock, Wu Xian had three magic weapons. After activating the blessing of [Taiyi Disciple], the quality of the magic weapons he obtained would become higher.
After the first worship, Wu Xian wanted to try to continue worshipping, but all the incense sticks on the altar seemed to be stuck to the table and could not be taken up at all.
Jiang Huaian over there also completed the worship of gods. He worshipped the 'Guangde Dragon King' and received a Zhanlu sword. Flying props are not easy to use in the Valley of the Dead, so melee weapons are more popular.
Jiang Huaian danced with the sword twice, then sheathed it and stared at the remaining statues in silence. After a moment, he took the initiative to ask Wu Xian:
"There are eleven statues left, but twelve people have yet to worship them. I suspect there is something wrong with one of the remaining twelve!"
Wu Xian was not surprised by this, which was the quality that a senior family member should have, so he told Jiang Huaian everything about Wang Jiudan and expressed his troubles:
"I kept Wang Jiudan because I wanted him to help us avoid danger when we encounter danger, but the position of the statue is different. When everyone finishes worshipping the god, everyone will know that there is something wrong with Wang Jiudan."
"So should I first..." Wu Xian made the motion of cutting meat with a knife.
Jiang Huaian frowned and scolded Wu Xian in a low voice: "I have heard about the dangers of evil people. You are playing with fire!"
"Okay, then I'll go back..."
"No, since we are going to play with fire, we might as well just burn a big one!" A hint of excitement appeared on Jiang Huaian's gentle face.
Wu Xian's eyes became strange: "What do you want to do?"
Jiang Huaian pushed his glasses: "He knows his situation, so he will try every means to avoid being exposed."
"As long as we let him go to worship God next, he will find a way to cover up his lie."
"We can also think of a way to actively set him up and let him voluntarily help us come up with strategies..."
Wu Xian thought about it and felt that this was difficult to do, but Jiang Huaian's next sentence made him feel that this plan might be feasible.
"I am Wang Jiudan!" These words came out of Jiang Huaian's mouth. His voice was exactly the same as Wang Jiudan's. He could actually imitate other people's voices!
"This is the magical power of [Parrot Mimicry], which allows me to imitate the sounds I have heard before."
"Besides that, I have another blessing that can also be effective for him!"
Wu Xian rubbed his hands like a fly, and began to discuss with Jiang Huaian the plan to defraud Wang Jiudan, and put forward many suggestions for improvement.
……
at this time.
Wang Jiudan was like a dead dog, lying on the ground and breathing heavily.
Not to mention the physical fatigue and mental exhaustion, what frightened him the most was the seed of extreme desire!
Wang Jiudan knew better than anyone how terrible the Seed of Extreme Desire was, and such a terrible thing was now in his body, and he had no way to get the seed out!
What's worse is that Wang Jiudan is mixed in with the enemy. If he is not careful, he will be discovered and killed without a burial place.
Wang Jiudan has many desires, but his biggest desire now is to survive!
Feeling anxious.
Wang Jiudan suddenly saw that Wu Xian and Jiang Huaian, who had just gone out to explore, had returned from the place where the candles were burning, and informed everyone that they could go to worship the gods.
After hearing the news, Wang Jiudan's heart was in his throat!
Everyone can worship God once!
So is there a statue of him? Even if there is one, he cannot worship it!
Once everyone has finished worshipping the gods, they will notice that one of the statues is missing. They will then realize that there is an outlier in their team and will begin to search for the traitor.
Wang Jiudan is self-aware. He has never been a smart man, otherwise he would not have ended up hating everyone in the real world equally.
"Okay, everyone, let's go and worship the gods!"
Before, when they were on the cliff, Wu Xian had already given everyone a popular science explanation, and everyone knew what worshiping the gods meant.
Wang Jiudan's body felt a little numb, and his movements were as slow as if he was walking towards the execution ground.
But at this moment, Wu Xian waved at him, and Wang Jiudan trotted towards Wu Xian as if he had been pardoned.
Wu Xian licked his lips and said with some embarrassment: "There is one thing I want to discuss with you alone. This will delay your time for worshiping the gods. Do you think it is troublesome?"
"No trouble, no trouble!"
Wang Jiudan waved his hands hurriedly. He hoped that Wu Xian would delay a little longer.
Wu Xian said with a serious expression: "The thing is, ever since I entered this blessed land, I have always felt that something is wrong. When I was worshiping the gods just now, I felt that something was staring at me, which made me very uneasy."
Wang Jiudan swallowed his saliva and said, "Do you feel something is wrong?"
Wu Xian shook his head: "I can't say for sure. If I tell everyone about this, it might cause panic. Just now on the cliff, you said that I could ask you for help no matter what, so I came to ask you to keep an eye on it for me!"
Wang Jiudan quickly nodded in agreement, and secretly rejoiced in his heart. It seemed that his efforts to establish a good relationship with Wu Xian on the cliff just now really paid off. At least when Wu Xian had doubts, he would not be the first one to suspect him.
But worshiping God is still a difficult task for him.
So after saying goodbye to Wu Xian, he walked towards the space where the statue was stored with a heavy heart.
For him, the psychological pressure of this behavior is no less than that of a loved one walking towards the statue of an evil god!
