Chapter 32: Real Name: Hungry Master
There's a girl trapped in amber?
When Amon heard the blacksmith report the news, the first person that came to his mind was the little zombie Qiqi.
Qiqi was originally just an ordinary herbal medicine girl.
It was just an accident that got her involved in the war between Adeptuss and demons.
As the saying goes, when gods fight, mortals suffer.
Qiqi was affected and his life was in danger.
When she was on the verge of death, Qiqi's fear of death, her longing for her family, and her desire to survive were all mixed together.
The powerful wish allowed her to obtain the Vision, and she burst out with powerful power to end the war between Adeptuss and demons.
After the war, all the Adeptuss felt sorry for Qiqi.
So each of them took out a strand of Adeptus power and sealed it in Qiqi's body, hoping to revive Qiqi.
Qiqi was resurrected, but not completely.
She turned into a zombie.
Not only that,
Qiqi's petite and frail body couldn't bear the power of the Adeptuss at all.
Going crazy out of control,
As a last resort, the Adeptus Moon carver could only seal Qiqi in amber.
This seal lasted for hundreds of years.
At present,
The girl the villagers found was most likely Qiqi.
However, all this is just Amon's inference.
You should go and check out the specific situation.
Amon looked at the blacksmith, and then politely asked, "Excuse me, where did you find the amber? Can you take me over to have a look?"
When the blacksmith heard that it was the Adeptus's request, he dared not say no.
"Of course no problem, of course no problem!"
"You don't know, Adeptus, that no one dared to go into the cave to find out what was going on. They thought it was too cold inside!"
"Even if a young and strong man went in, he would not be able to withstand the cold for more than a few minutes and would shiver all the time!"
"We came here this time because we hope that the Adeptus can lead us into the cave to check the situation."
As for what the blacksmith said about the strangeness of the cave,
Amon guessed that it was probably caused by the cold air emanating from Qiqi's body.
You know, after Qiqi became a zombie, her body became stiff and cold.
Over time, the cave became extremely cold.
It is understandable that ordinary people cannot endure such severe cold.
Amon didn't say much, just gestured to the blacksmith to lead the way.
And little Ningguang followed Amon closely.
Now she basically follows Amon wherever he goes.
Just like a little tail.
There are many villagers,
They found it incredible when they heard that there was a girl trapped in amber.
So they followed, wanting to find out what was going on.
....
The blacksmith took Amon on a mountain road.
Finally, the group stopped at the foot of the mountain.
The blacksmith pointed to the hole in front of him, and then said to Amon respectfully: "Adeptus, this is the cave we found. The amber that holds the girl is inside."
Amon nodded and prepared to enter the cave.
The cave is well hidden and basically blends into the surrounding environment.
If the villagers hadn't cut down some trees, it would have been difficult to find.
Many villagers stopped at the entrance of the cave and dared not take another step forward.
Because just standing at the entrance of the cave, everyone felt the cold air blowing towards them.
The cold air would make people shiver even if it just touched the skin.
Not to mention the lower temperature inside.
Facing the oncoming cold,
Ningguangwas also shivering subconsciously.
However, seeing Amon entering the cave, the little girl gritted her teeth and followed him in.
Anyway, she would follow Amon wherever he went.
Amon also noticed this and turned to warn Ningguang: "Little girl, the temperature in the cave is very low. You may catch a cold easily. Don't go in."
Ningguang pouted and looked disappointed when she heard this.
But since it was Amon's order, she would still obey it.
Soon, Amon also entered the cave alone.
The temperature inside is so much lower than outside.
It is no exaggeration to say that it is summer outside and winter inside.
Amon couldn't stand the chill either.
He put his hands in front of his chest and used the skill "Dominus Lapidis".
Solid as a rock.
With a low roar, a ridge of rock appeared in the cave.
At the same time, Amon's body was also surrounded by jade halberds.
Logically speaking, shield skills cannot resist the cold.
But the skill mechanism that Amon extracted far exceeded the game settings.
His Jade Shield not only protects him from the cold in the cave,
Even if I go to the snowy mountains in the future,
As long as he had the Jade shield, Amon didn't need to look for a source of fire.
As the shield was put on his body, Amon immediately felt that the coldness was reduced a lot.
He looked up at the amber the villagers were talking about.
At first glance, I saw a girl sleeping with her eyes closed in the amber.
She wore a hat on her head and a purple dress.
A long string of jade beads hung on the girl's chest, and a bandage was wrapped around her right leg to cover the wound.
What caught Amon's attention the most was the large amount of talismans pasted on the girl's body.
Just as he guessed.
The little zombie Qiqi is sealed in the amber.
At the same time, Amon also noticed that there was a seal with the mark of an Adeptus on the amber.
However, due to a hundred years of wear and tear, the sealing talisman had long since become dull and no longer had its original effect.
Amon strode forward and used "Dominus lapidis" again.
The amber that sealed Qiqi also shattered at this moment.
As the amber shattered,
Amon finally saw Qiqi.
At this moment, the little zombie is lying on its side with its eyes closed.
Her face was peaceful and she looked as if she had just fallen asleep.
After a while, Qiqi sensed the outside world and slowly opened her eyes.
Those beautiful pink eyes like peach blossoms looked at the world, like a newborn baby.
"Where...is this place?"
"Who am I?"
"Ah... I don't remember anything..."
The little zombie felt that everything in front of him was unfamiliar.
Although her face was expressionless,
But those beautiful eyes were filled with helplessness and fear.
Although she had been sleeping for hundreds of years, her mind was still that of a girl of a few years old.
Now that she was in an unfamiliar environment, her first reaction was fear.
Upon seeing this, Amon immediately squatted down and said softly to Qiqi: "This is Liyue, Guili plain ."
"And your name is Qiqi."
When Qiqi heard the voice, she slowly raised her head and looked at Amon with her clear, bright eyes.
She felt like she had a very long dream.
There is nothing in the dream but endless darkness.
Qiqi hated the darkness and wanted to end the dream quickly.
But I found that I couldn't wake up.
She stayed in the darkness like that.
There was no light, no sound,
Just...very lonely.
Qiqi is afraid of loneliness.
She hates being alone.
So now when Qiqi sees humans, she feels very familiar.
Her beautiful eyes flickered, touched by Amon's words: "Liyue... Guili plain ... I seem to have heard of it."
"Qiqi...is that my name?"
It was obviously a very brief message, but it took the little zombie a very long time to digest it.
After a while, Qiqi raised her head and looked at Amon: "What's your name?"
Amon knew Qiqi had a bad memory, so he spoke slowly and concisely: "My name is Amon."
Next,
Amon heard Qiqi talking to he
rself, as if she was sorting out her thoughts.
"Amon... Qiqi..."
Qiqi tilted her head and said seri
ously: "My name is Amon...Your name is Qiqi..."
"No... My name is Amon... My name is Mona??..."
"Oh...I forgot."
