Chapter 78 Touching the ground to subdue the demon seal

The demon king's clone gradually disappeared in front of Shi Erruo, and the cold touch unique to humans returned to her mind.

She knew that she woke up and became a person again.

My eyelids are still heavy, but I can barely open them.

Before she could fully open it, she heard a call in her ear.

"Shi Erruo, are you awake?"

Shi Erruo pursed her lips, which were very dry. She pushed herself up with difficulty, feeling that her head was heavy and something seemed to be stirring inside.

Perhaps this was the aftereffect of entering the illusion, and she was not fully awake yet.

Suddenly there was a warm touch on his forehead, and the familiar voice came to mind again, "It seems like I have a fever, I think I'm catching a cold. Shi Erruo, if you can't sleep at this time, it will be more serious if you catch a cold again."

"Ehwu~~Ehwu~~"

When Shi Erruo heard the sound of the giant capybara not far away, she slowly opened her eyes. Even the dim light reflected by the night pearl made her feel dazzling.

Qiu Zhuo seemed to notice this and immediately stood up to block most of the light.

"My head hurts a bit." Shi Erruo frowned and touched his head, shaking it vigorously but still couldn't relieve the uncomfortable feeling.

Qiu Zhuo touched Shi Erruo's head and said, "You have a fever. Of course you will have a headache. We must leave this place as soon as possible."

Shi Erruo struggled to get up from the ground, "How long have I been unconscious?"

Qiu Zhuo immediately went to help her, "It didn't take long, probably less than half an hour."

It seems that, as Shi Erruo expected, the time in the illusion is different from the outside.

The Demon King's clone said before she left the illusion that the only way to get out of the curtains was to open the door. Only in the tomb can the road to the outside world be found.

Shi Erruo pointed to the tomb door in front of him and said to Qiu Zhuo, "We have to open this door before we can leave this place."

Qiu Zhuo turned around and looked at the closed door of the tomb, frowning.

The giant capybara moved its plump limbs close to Shi Erruo, as if it wanted to attract attention.

"What's wrong?" Shi Erruo touched the giant capybara's head and realized that it seemed to want to say something to him.

The giant capybara moved its short legs again and walked to the door of the tomb with its protruding nose close to the door and made a cry of "eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelly!"

"Is it trying to tell us something?" Qiu Zhuo helped Shi Erruo approach the tomb door and observed.

He stretched out his hand and touched the pattern on the tomb door, his eyebrows moved, "These are Buddha's handprints! The largest pattern in the middle is the mark of touching the ground to subdue the devil, which is the same as the handprint made by the demon king cast in bronze, and the smaller images next to it are It is various other styles of Buddha mudra.”

"Could these be related to the door switch?" Shi Erruo guessed.

"It's very possible." Qiu Zhuo said, "I don't know if it will be useful to use soul power to do these Buddha mudras."

Shi Erruo couldn't wait to say, "Then try it quickly!"

Qiu Zhuo glanced at his hand holding Shi Erruo, "How do you feel? Can you hold on?"

Shi Erruo took Qiu Zhuo's hand away and said, "It's not that fragile. There's no problem. Try it quickly!"

So, Qiu Zhuo raised his eyes and looked at the Buddha's handprints on the tomb door, and quickly memorized their order and sealing techniques.

"You sit down first and lean against the capybara. I'll give it a try." Qiu Zhuo acted carefully and slowly asked Shi Erruo to sit down and lean against the giant capybara.

"Ehwu~~Ehwu~~"

The giant capybara approached Shi Erruo with small steps and rubbed her body with its nose.

After settling down with Shi Erruo, Qiu Zhuo used his soul power to start forming seals. One by one, the Buddha's hand seals appeared smoothly on his hands, and he ended only when he reached the ground-touching demon-conquering seal.

At the last second, he quickly pushed the mark towards the tomb door and carefully observed the movement of the door. "How's it going? Is it open?" Shi Erruo asked with concern, holding his heavy head.

"Maybe not."

Qiu Zhuo approached the tomb door and put his ear to it, wanting to hear the sound.

Suddenly, he seemed to sink, staggered, and was about to fall down.

Although Shi Erruo had a fever, he reacted quickly and almost subconsciously stood up and immediately stepped forward to catch him.

"Qiu Zhuo! Qiu Zhuo!"

Shi Erruo shook Qiu Zhuo and patted his face several times, but still got no response.

She carefully observed Qiu Zhuo's current state, which seemed to be the same as when she had just entered the illusion.Could it be that the Demon King's clone also took him in and wanted him to go through some so-called experience?

Shi Erruo waved to the giant capybara, "Come here quickly."

She wanted Qiu Zhuo to spend the time in fantasy by leaning on the capybara.

The giant capybara saw what Shi Erruo was thinking, and although it was a little reluctant, it still came over with small steps.

"It's so cute!"

Shi Erruo touched the giant capybara's head and said, "If something happens to him or he wakes up, just call me, you know?"

Seeing the giant capybara and nodding, Shi Erruo walked away with confidence. She decided to memorize the Buddha's handprints as well. Although she didn't recognize it and remembered it very slowly, she still wanted to try both of them.

And the unconscious Qiu Zhuo did indeed enter the illusion as Shi Erruo expected.

The Demon King's clone looked at Qiu Zhuo and asked, "Are you from the Buddhist sect?"

Qiu Zhuo saluted the Demon King, "That's right."

The Demon King's clone said: "That's no wonder. Since you can form a seal to open my Xumi Illusion, you and I are destined to be together."

Qiu Zhuo asked respectfully: "I wonder if your Majesty, could you tell me how to open the tomb door?"

The Demon King's clone said frankly, "If you want to open the tomb door, there is only one way, which is to learn my self-created Touching the Ground Demon Subduing Seal. I can give you a fortune, but whether you can learn it or not depends on you."

Qiu Zhuo saluted again, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Go."

The Demon King's clone gradually dimmed in front of him, replaced by an unfamiliar scene.

The dark red cloak was fluttering messily in the strong wind. A general in armor was riding on a horse, holding a long spear in his hand, and was making a breakthrough.

The sound of killing was loud on the battlefield, and the enemy soldiers rushed towards the general like a swarm of bees. One after another, sharp spears shining with cold light were heading straight towards him.

The long spear in the general's hand burst out with great power, cutting off the spears one by one, and stabbing the soldiers who intercepted him. The whole journey was like breaking bamboo, as if entering an uninhabited country.

At this time, Qiu Zhuo felt that he was floating above the general, feeling the powerful beating heart in his chest, and receiving his past memories.

This battle is extremely important to both countries. No matter which side loses, the fate of the country will change dramatically.

However, the current emperor was frightened. He only wanted to seek peace and was afraid of the generals who had military power. He would rather cede territory and pay compensation than confront the enemy head-on.

The general's war horse looked like a good horse. It galloped on the battlefield and rushed straight out of the encirclement of the army.

The general's hand was holding a sack tightly, and blood seeped out drop by drop, disappearing in the air with the wind as he galloped.

The enemy soldiers looked at the sack with red eyes, showing their ferocity that they wanted to tear the general into pieces.

The soldiers who came to cover the general shouted loudly from behind: "General, you go first and leave us alone!"
