Infinite Puzzle City

Chapter 224 This Place Looks Familiar to Me
"broken!"

Xiao Ran couldn't even struggle this time. In a hurry, he only had enough time to take Shen Kuaidao and others into the space. Then, his eyes went dark and his vision became completely blurred.

"Little baby, now that you are in my stomach, even if a god comes, he can't save you. Just suffer in this hell of bones."

Along with the sound of the big snake, the scene in front of Xiao Ran suddenly became bright. He could hear miserable wails everywhere, and when he looked around, he saw endless white bones.

Xiao Ran frowned. The world in front of him looked a little familiar. He thought carefully and said, "Isn't this the gate of hell?"

He looked carefully and became more and more certain that this was the gate of hell.

However, this time he had neither a carriage nor Guan Erye to escort him, and Xiao Ran began to feel a little unsure.

It’s not that he was scared of the bones in front of him, but after the last incident at the gates of hell, Xiao Ran always had a deep resistance to the underworld.

But on second thought, this place certainly wouldn't be the real gate of hell.

Since it is not the gate of hell, it must be fake.

It may not be easy to break through this level.

As I was thinking about it, I suddenly felt my skin all over my body itchy. I pulled up my sleeves and found that a layer of skin flakes had grown on my skin.

With a gentle rub of fingers, large pieces of dandruff fell off. Xiao Ran wiped it a few times and found that the dandruff was increasing.

Even when he pinched a piece with his fingers and gently pulled it down, he actually tore off a large piece of dry skin from his arm.

Just like the skin shed by a snake.

Xiao Ran was sure that he definitely did not have any skin disease.

This is the first time I have encountered such a situation, but I guess it is related to this place.

"The White Bone Hell, could it be..."

Xiao Ran already had a guess in his mind, and immediately took out a large bucket of purified water from the space and poured it on his body, trying to keep his skin moist.

But the effect is minimal.

The speed at which it sheds its skin is actually getting faster and faster.

"Damn it, I can't stay here anymore. If I keep peeling off layer by layer, my skin will rot in no time."

Xiao Ran felt a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart, but the more time passed, the calmer he became.

Close your eyes and let all the knowledge, skills, and curses you have learned flash through your mind.

Then he quickly sorted out his thoughts.

Xiao Ran took out a few silver needles and stabbed himself with them.

From a medical point of view, there are three possible causes for skin shedding: internal, external factors, and the environment.

Either there is something wrong with your metabolism, or your skin has come into contact with some foreign toxins.

Use the elimination method, first give yourself acupuncture, seal your acupoints, and quickly reduce your metabolism.

After a few injections of silver needles, Xiao Ran felt his whole body becoming cold and his heartbeat became almost subtle.

Then Xiao Ran stared at his skin with wide eyes, watching as new flakes of skin quickly appeared on his arm, which had just shed a layer of skin.

However, the speed is obviously much slower than before.

“It has some effect, but not much!”

Seeing this, Xiao Ran sat cross-legged on the ground, clasped his hands together, and used the technique from [Record of Corpse Transmigration], half of the Yin and Yang.

This name sounds nice, but to put it bluntly, it is used to pretend to be dead.

After all, a corpse sewist sometimes encounters corpses that are beyond repair and cannot be avoided, so he has to sew them. However, if he sews them, he will definitely be unlucky.

How to do? ?

Otherwise, how can we say that the wisdom of our ancestors is always simple and effective?

Don't bother killing me, I'll do it myself.

Ordinary pretending to be dead and the turtle breathing technique are too childish. They may be useful for fooling people, but they won’t work for those weird things.

So this technique came into being.

As Xiao Ran made hand gestures and chanted spells, a large amount of corpse gas surged out of his body. The corpse gas became thicker and thicker, and finally stuck to Xiao Ran's skin like mucus.

The originally white skin and flesh turned into a blue-gray color in an instant, like hairy tofu.

Now Xiao Ran was no different from a dead person from the inside out.

"Or not!"

He thought this was foolproof, but the result was unexpected. He stopped shedding his skin. But before he could be happy, he discovered that oil was starting to grow on his skin.

As time goes by, the fat becomes thicker and thicker. Although the skin no longer sheds, the muscle is lost rapidly.

The oil feels like white wax, very delicate, and you can rub it gently with your fingers.

Xiao Ran was very familiar with the smell, it was the smell of corpse oil.

If you really want to know this taste, mix sesame oil and durian together, add canned herring, and heat it.

Believe me, if you keep the ventilation on, the whole building will come knocking on your door.

The smell is fragrant yet smelly, and smelly yet fragrant. It will directly mess up your brain's CPU. Unless you are someone who comes into contact with it frequently, you will never be able to adapt to it.

However, the smell on my body is obviously much lighter than the smell of corpse oil.

"Internal and external factors can only delay it, not stop it. That leaves only the last factor."

Xiao Ran looked around and saw nothing but bones everywhere. There was no sky above and no ground below. It seemed endless from a distance.

This kind of ghost place does not have the officials or generals as imagined, nor does it have any strange spells, but it is the most troublesome and the most unsolvable.

He can temporarily alleviate the situation now, but he doesn't know how long he can hold on. If he continues like this, he will eventually run out of energy.

But Xiao Ran changed his mind and was no longer in a hurry. He took out another thing, a weight and a scale bar.

【Equivalent weight】

Deactivate the [Black Swan Brooch] and instead learn the spell pattern to activate this cursed object.

【Equivalent Weight·Scholars】

Privilege 1: Chips

Any item can be converted into a chip. The more items converted, the more precious they are, and the higher the level of the chip.

You can choose whether to convert.

(Note: The conversion standard of chips does not refer to the user's value concept, and the estimated price will be slightly biased. Please note that the converted chips can only be kept for 30 days.)
Privilege 2: Money Paves the Way

You have two choices,

Option 1: Change the chips to make a wish.

(Note 1: The upper limit of wishes cannot exceed D level)
(Note 2: If the wish fails, the chips you handed over will not be returned.)
Option 2: Money paves the way and your dreams will come true.

(Note 1: Chips can be used to give you some advice on things that bother you. After all, sometimes, when wishes cannot be fulfilled, knowledge may be able to help you find a way.)
"Yo, this is much easier than before."

This was the first time that he took out the [Equivalent Weight] after his advancement. After activating it with the Scholar, the effect it presented made Xiao Ran's eyes light up. He had originally just been trying to see if he could use this thing to restore his body, but he didn't expect the effect to be better than he thought.

Seeing this, Xiao Ran became a little impatient.

The several large boxes of gold, silver and jewelry that Shen Kuaidao had given him before are now of great use.

Just take out a box and use conversion.

A fluorescent light flashed from the weight, and the next moment a copper coin fell into the scale pan with a "ding-ling" sound.

"I exchanged a box of jewelry for this thing??"

Xiao Ran frowned, took the copper coin in his hand, thought about it, and decided that saving his life was more important, so he tried to see if this thing could change his condition first.

As Xiao Ran's thought flashed through his mind, the copper coin in his hand immediately turned into a faint fluorescent light and penetrated into Xiao Ran's body.

Soon, Xiao Ran discovered that his muscles, which had begun to show signs of dryness, were recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"It can happen!"

Now Xiao Ran finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he took out the remaining boxes of gold, silver and jewelry and exchanged them all for chips.

Looking at the chips in his hand, Xiao Ran weighed them in his palm and said, "I can't make a wish to get out, but you can at least show me a way out!!"

Thinking of this, Xiao Ran took out most of the chips, held them in his hand, waved his hand and threw them above his head.

"Jingle Bell……"

A few chips turned into golden light and then disappeared in front of Xiao Ran like bubbles.

"Gone??"

Xiao Ran blinked his eyes and looked around, but didn't see any changes. His originally gray face suddenly turned darker, and he couldn't help but curse: "Fuck, I'm being scammed?"

Just when Xiao Ran was full of complaints and regretting not downloading the anti-fraud APP, his eyes suddenly turned.

A faint golden light flashed in the distance.

The golden light was very faint. If it weren't for Xiao Ran's excellent eyesight, ordinary people would not even notice it with the naked eye.

"what!!"

Xiao Ran stared at the golden light in the distance, and a look of joy immediately appeared on his face. No matter whether the direction pointed by the golden light was correct or whether there was a way to survive, it was better than waiting to die here.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ran took out another thing from the space.

D-level cursed item: [Bronze Horse·Horizontal Refining]

Privilege 1: Summon a Bronze Warhorse

After use, you can summon a bronze warhorse as a mount. Riding on the horse's back, you can temporarily transform into a bronze armored cavalryman, enjoying strength and defense bonuses when the warhorse charges.

The faster the warhorse's charge speed, the stronger the strength blessing, up to 20 points of strength increase.

Duration: 30 minutes
Cooling time: 18 hours
Privilege 2: Human-Horse Unity
Summon: During a charge, you and your steed's strength are considered as a whole.

Not only is it more flexible and convenient to control, its own strength will also greatly increase the warhorse.

Additional Skills: Flame Hoof
The flaming iron hooves increase the bronze horse's speed by 30%. When the warhorse's charging speed reaches its fastest, it launches a flaming trampling attack on the target six meters ahead!

Duration: 3 minutes
This thing is Shen Kuaidao's treasure.

It is considered a rare and powerful curse among D-level curses.

Whether it is a melee or an individual, the ability to charge, fight, resist injuries, and run away is simply a powerful weapon.

Normally, Shen Kuaidao is reluctant to use it, but now Xiao Ran uses it as a mount for traveling.

After activating it, throw it forward and a bronze warhorse will immediately appear in front of you.

This warhorse is made entirely of bronze, with a dim glow on its surface and clear muscle lines like a sculpture, full of power.

A light orange flame was burning in his pupils, and the flame was jumping. When Xiao Ran flipped over and jumped up, a set of bronze armor matching the style of the warhorse was quickly wrapped around Xiao Ran.

This set of armor fits Xiao Ran's body tightly, and every seam is tightly fitted, which ensures flexibility and provides protection, and is particularly comfortable.

Mounting on the warhorse, Xiao Ran did not dare to delay. He kicked his legs, the warhorse let out a neigh, and then quickly charged forward.

The sound of "da da da da" of horse hooves echoed in this hell of bones. The flames under the horse hooves became more and more blazing. Every time the hooves hit the ground, sparks would fly everywhere. Some skeletons that were still wriggling and howling were crushed before they could dodge...

　I guess I will have to wait until tomorrow night to finish writing this crappy Five Immortals Hall. I'll do it as soon as possible, mainly because I've been feeling unwell these past two days, otherwise if I wrote five chapters a day, I'd finish it in two days.
