Pushing martial arts horizontally: starting from depriving the mantis shrimp of its talent

Chapter 89 Wishing Bottle
Chen Cheng "watched" Lao Wangtou yelling emotionally at the jar on the stone platform.

But because the distance was too far and the obstruction was too thick, the sound waves couldn't pass through, so I didn't know what to say.

But no matter how much Lao Wangtou cursed, the jar in front of him did not move at all.

Feeling the vibration feedback, Chen Cheng could tell that it should be a porcelain jar, but it was somewhat different from ordinary porcelain jars, and no matter how much the vibration was increased, the inside of the porcelain jar could not be detected.

After all, Lao Wangtou was old. After being agitated for a while, he listened breathlessly. He stared at the porcelain jar for a long time, and finally bent down and took out a heavy box.

"This feedback is gold?"

"A box made of gold?"

Chen Cheng frowned.

Considering the size of a porcelain jar, the box would not be too small to fit it in. Even if it were made thin, it would weigh at least thirty kilograms.

Thirty pounds of gold, that is, 300 taels of gold, is worth 3000 taels of silver.

Watching Old Wangtou remove the porcelain jar from the stone platform and put it into a gold box, and then poured liquid from the crucible on the stove to seal the gaps around the box.

"It's still gold. Why go to such great lengths to seal the suspiciously weird porcelain jar with a gold box?"

"Could it be that Old Wangtou thinks that gold can block out strange things?"

Chen Cheng touched his chin.

If gold really has such a role, then he needs to make more preparations.

Lao Wangtou worked hard for a while, then he leaned on his waist and opened a mechanism. The boulder rose up. Just as Lao Wangtou was about to go out, he suddenly felt a faint fragrance coming from him. After walking a few steps, he leaned against it. The wall slid to the ground and he fell asleep.

Chen Cheng walked out from the other end of the secret passage, bent slightly and walked over, looking at the boulder that had fallen again and the secret room that had been sealed.

But this didn't bother him at all.

Relying on vibration perception, he had engraved all the structure of the mechanism in his mind, pushed the old king's head away, and then pressed it on an ordinary stone behind him near the wall.

Suddenly, the sealing boulder rose up.

Chen Cheng bent down and walked in. He looked at the porcelain jar sealed by a gold box on the table and reached out to touch it.

[Sealed Gold Box]: A box made of pure gold and sealed by pouring molten gold juice.

[Strange Bottle]: It was originally an ordinary porcelain bottle, but it was filled with strangeness and infected with ghost charm, so it had something unique. The strangeness that resided in it had already escaped with the first wish made.When the three wishes are made, the weirdness will return to it, but it doesn't want to go back.

"Ran?"

Chen Cheng frowned.

The strangeness residing in the strange bottle has already left the strange bottle when Old Wangtou made his first wish, and is now wandering outside.

And judging from the information obtained from the supernatural power, this kind of weirdness does not want to return to the weird bottle after Lao Wangtou makes his third wish, so what will it do?
Chen Cheng's face turned aside, he immediately put the box under his arm, turned around and rushed towards the secret passage.

When the boulder rose, the old Wang's head still maintained the position he had pushed aside before, and his chest rose and fell regularly. It did not look like he had been killed as strangely as he expected.

"I was wrong?"

Chen Cheng's steps slowed down.

Originally, he thought that Weiyi didn't want Old Wangtou to return to Weibo after making his third wish, so the most direct way was to kill Old Wangtou, so that his third wish would never be fulfilled, and Weiyi could stay there forever. outside.

But at present, it seems that the strange people in the strange bottle should also have special killing rules, and they cannot kill people at will.

Chen Cheng squatted in front of Lao Wangtou and reached out to grab the arm whose skin had lost elasticity and was covered with age spots.

[Wish Bottle Host]: When he was young, Lao Wangtou could not find a wife because of his poor family and short stature.So whether it was going up the mountains to collect medicine or going down the river to catch fish, I tried all kinds of labor that could bring me money.Until one day, when he went fishing in the Huanglong River, he found a porcelain vase, and his life changed. ,

[First wish]: Find a wife who can give him children. (completed)
[Second wish]: Let my two sons no longer worry about money. (completed)
[Third wish]: None (unfulfilled).

The superpower directly displayed the manager who got the bottle from Lao Wang and the wish he had made.

Chen Cheng felt a chill as he looked at the three blood-red words that had been completed behind the two wishes.

"After making the first wish, Lao Wangtou did find his wife, but the wife died immediately after having children."

"The second wish is that when the two sons make a lot of money and no longer worry about money, and take a wife because of this, they will kill the two sons immediately."

"Is this the killing pattern of the Wish Bottle?"

Chen Cheng's face darkened.

"Where will the weirdness in the weird bottle be now? And how will it get rid of Lao Wangtou's third wish?"

While Chen Cheng was thinking, he suddenly found that the oil lamp in the secret passage suddenly flickered.

The flame on the wick flickered suddenly and then went out.

Bang!
Bang!
Watching the oil lamps at the end of the secret passage go out one after another, Chen Cheng felt a chill rush from the soles of his feet to the sky.

When the last oil lamp close to the boulder behind him went out, the secret passage was already dark.

But Chen Cheng relied on the slightest light in the secret passage to still see everything.

Hey!
Hey!
The sound of slow and stiff footsteps came from far away.

Chen Cheng's muscles tensed up and he slowly took a few steps back, exposing Lao Wang's head.

He thought that Weiwei came to kill Lao Wangtou. His guess just now might be correct. Weiwei's attack just came a little late.

As the footsteps approached, Chen Cheng's [hyperdimensional vision] could already see the strange appearance.

"The head of the old king?"

Chen Cheng's heart skipped a beat.The strange appearance is exactly the same as the old Wangtou lying on the ground.

Same short stature, same dark wrinkled skin, and even the same age spots.

However, this strangely transformed Lao Wangtou walked stiffly, with no expression on his face, and no waves in his eyes. There was only a shocking deathly silence, like a corpse.

The strangely transformed Lao Wangtou quickly came to Lao Wangtou who was leaning in the corner, but in the next second, he stepped straight past Lao Wangtou and headed towards Chen Cheng.

"Come at me?!"

Chen Cheng's eyes flashed with anger, his energy and blood accelerated to the extreme, and powerful power gathered in his hands.

As the strange one approached, when Chen Chengcheng was about to launch an attack, the strange old Wangtou stopped one meter in front of Chen Cheng.

At this distance, the strong smell of corpses kept coming towards Chen Cheng's nose.

Seeing the strange old Wang's head stop, Chen Cheng, who was about to take action, also froze. He didn't know whether to take action or what, and was a little embarrassed.

"."

"What does it mean?"

Chen Cheng's face was heavy as he watched the strangely transformed Lao Wangtou move his lips a few times and make a weak sound.

But the sound was too vague and nothing could be heard.

"Make a wish."

Seeing Wei Wei's delay in launching an attack, Chen Cheng couldn't help but get closer.

As his lips moved strangely, a very vague voice gradually became clear in his ears.

"Make a wish?"

Chen Cheng heard the meaning and looked surprised and uncertain.

"So Weiwei's solution is to ask the next person to make a wish. After the second person makes two wishes, he goes to the next person. Repeat?"

"Is this your way of escaping?"

Seeing that the words were getting clearer and clearer, the voice was getting louder and louder, and finally the whole secret passage was shaking in a strange way, Chen Cheng suddenly thought of something.

He thought about how he had drugged everyone in order to sneak in smoothly.

This resulted in Weiwei not being able to find anyone who could make a wish, so he found Chen Cheng, the only person in the house who could still make a wish.

Seeing Chen Cheng's delay in making his wish, the eyes of the strangely transformed Lao Wangtou gradually began to fluctuate, and his expression became increasingly gloomy, with a pressing sense of coldness coming over him.

It seemed that Chen Cheng was unwilling to make a wish and chose to use this method to intimidate him.

According to the weird method, Chen Cheng seemed to be able to get two wishes in vain, but he knew that there was no such good thing in the world.

Seeing that the strange person was just threatening, but not showing any intention of taking action, Chen Cheng was moved in his heart.

"Just in time to test whether gold has any effect on you."

Picking up the box held under his arm, he exerted all his strength and with a strong wind sound, he swung it towards Weird's side face.

Bang!
There was a loud noise, and it flew out strangely, and was embedded in the stone wall of the secret passage.

"Sure enough, it doesn't feel as cold as before. It really works."

"But, it's of little use."

Chen Cheng looked at the unharmed Wei Wei and narrowed his eyelids.

The golden box in his hand has been somewhat deformed under his great strength.

"Gold is still too soft, and it only has the effect of isolating Weirdness, but it still can't hurt Weirdness."

Chen Cheng suddenly thought of something.

"The Five Metal Grinding Mountain Technique includes the use of gold for training. If I practice the Hard Metal Grinding Mountain Technique, wouldn't it also be able to isolate some weird attacks?"

Chen Cheng's eyes flashed, and he felt that the metal grinding skill had great potential.

Chen Cheng's face darkened when he saw the strange man pulling himself out of the stone wall and blocking him again while shouting "make a wish".

He used the somewhat deformed gold box as mist and knocked it back.

"I didn't know that I could be scared by you before, but I can still be scared by you after knowing your killing rules. Then I didn't know it for nothing!"

Chen Cheng passed by the strange figure embedded in the wall with a dark face and walked out of the secret passage.

Chen Cheng quickly left Wang's house and returned to the branch library, but what he didn't expect was that the strange creature that transformed into an old king's head seemed to be targeting him.

He kept following him, shouting "make a wish".

But others seemed to be unable to see it, and turned a deaf ear to the strange roaring from where they were standing.

"It's really weird."

For some unknown reason, although there were other people around after leaving the Wang Mansion, the wishing ghost seemed to be targeting him alone.

At first, Chen Cheng thought it was because of the strange bottle, but he soon found out that it wasn't.

"There should be some special pattern so that it can only find me."

Chen Cheng looked at the strange man standing next to him who kept asking him to make wishes, and reached out to touch it.
