"Hehehe~ Please follow me~"
The pig-headed boss took them to a single table in the back kitchen.
That’s right, there is such a dining table set up outside the kitchen, facing the window cut out in the kitchen, so that the food prepared by the Pig-Headed Man can be brought directly to the dining table.
The pig-headed boss walked into the kitchen, took out some pork bones and some vegetables and started cooking. While cooking, he said:
"The price is simple..."
Xia was speechless for a while. The man who said it was simple last time tortured them half to death. She no longer believed these nonsense, so she told Domi directly:
"He said the cost was severe."
"Um……"
The Pig-Headed Boss: "You ordered six dishes, so I will make six bowls of pork bone soup, three of which are poisoned by me. Only when you find all three bowls can you and your companions enjoy the food."
His butcher knife smashed mercilessly on his companion's pig bones. Pangcang heard a loud noise, raised his head, and looked at Duomi with a teasing expression:
"If you want to fill your stomach, you have to step on the corpses of your companions~"
However, Domi was not frightened by the pig-headed man. Instead, he observed him, as if he wanted to do something outrageous.
However, his obvious thoughts were seen through by the Pig-Headed Man: "Did you see these time magics? I cast them, so you'd better give up your intention to kill me. I can pin you to the ground with one hand now."
"Okay..." Duomi gave up this dangerous idea and asked, "Then...what kind of poison did you use?"
"No, look at the bones at your feet."
"My poison will make you feel extremely hungry, and then your body will emit the aroma of meat. At this moment, you will tear your own flesh and eat it."
"When people are hungry, they eat other creatures, but why can't they eat themselves? So I want to correct this."
"Come on, soup, I've already made it. You are not allowed to run away without paying in this restaurant, hehehe~"
As he spoke, the pig-headed man brought six bowls of pork bone soup to Duomi's table. Each bowl exuded a fragrant aroma and looked no different. Perhaps even the taste was the same.
Everyone knows the seriousness of the situation.
They have to drink this soup, but if they drink something poisonous, they will have to drink it.
Compared to the possibility of at most three people dying, the most reasonable solution is for one person to find all the poison soups.
But at this moment, the Pig-headed Man added:
"Drink, at least half of it. Once my poison enters your stomach, it will take effect in three seconds. You should think about it carefully~"
Half! Quick effect!
Although at least no one will die this time, there is a high probability that two will die.
Everyone looked at each other. None of them wanted to die, but the current situation was that someone had to die, otherwise they would starve to death here.
Only at the moment of life and death can human nature be revealed.
Argyle came forward and patted Domi on the shoulder as he sat on the chair:
"Duomi, let me do it. How can a brother let his younger brothers and sisters die first?"
"No, I should be the first one. I'm the oldest." Xia said.
"Hehehe~ Looks like you've already selected the poison tester. Really good efficiency."
However, Duomi had no intention of giving up his position: "Don't fight, let me handle the matter of poison testing."
He looked at his family and friends behind him with a firm gaze: "I promise, no one, including me, will lose their life here."
After saying that, Duomi picked up the bowl on the far left at a speed that no one had time to react to, and drank it down in a few gulps.
Xia and Argyle tried to stop him, but were stopped by the pig-headed man's butcher knife. He smiled strangely on his pig face and said:
"Now... unless he dies, no one can stop the poison test."
They could only watch with sorrow as Duomi ate one bowl after another... and then another?
Each bowl was half the size, and it took me three seconds to finish each one.
But Duomi has already drunk three bowls, how come he is still fine?
Even the Pig-Headed Man was dumbfounded. He clearly remembered that two of the first three bowls from left to right were poisoned.
That means Domi has already drunk two bowls of poisonous pig soup!
But he did not experience any symptoms and continued to try. He didn't know which bowl was poisonous, so he drank all six bowls. At the end, he licked his lips and found that the taste was not bad.
"Hiccup~~"
Even burped.
【Old Pig's jaw dropped.JPG】
This is all thanks to the [Natural Body] talent he drew not long ago, which makes him immune to 90% of all kinds of toxins. After the toxins are reduced by %, they directly become appetizers. Now he is extremely hungry, but he doesn't want to eat himself.
"Hey, pig-headed man, this should be considered as testing the poison, right? After all, I drank it all. If you are not convinced, you can serve a few more bowls. I will drink it slowly. If you have nothing to say, then serve the food quickly."
The pig-headed man naturally had nothing to say. A beast that was immune to all poisons came. What use was there for him to design this level? Just treat it as a joke.
So this guy rolled back to the kitchen covered in dust and dirt, prepared delicious food for Domi and the others, and then personally moved the food to the empty dining table outside.
Naturally, everyone was puzzled as to why Domi was fine after drinking the poison, but he just made up a few random excuses - he was born resistant to poison.
"I have my reasons for doing this. Look, I'm fine. Don't worry about it. Come on, eat as much as you want!"
Everyone suddenly realized what was going on after hearing what was said. They praised Domi highly and stuffed meat into their mouths. It could be said that it was Domi who saved all of them.
After eating and drinking, the six of them slumped in their chairs with big bellies. It was the first time they had eaten so well in all the days they had been on this deserted island. They felt that their lives were complete.
At this time, the pig-headed man came over again.
He pulled a glowing green pebble from his leather apron pocket and tossed it to Domi. It was exactly the same thing he had gotten from the innkeeper.
"Here, a tip for the meal."
Domi took the stone and asked curiously:
"So...what is this stone used for?"
The pig-headed boss is no better than the innkeeper, at least he can speak.
He raised his hand and pointed to the north:
"Gather three bird's eye stones at random in this town and head in that direction. The king will be waiting for you at the end of the road. That is also the only exit for you to leave here."
"Can you tell me about this king?"
"No, I will be punished."
"Forget it. Let me change the question, Pig-headed Man. Why are you still here after all these years? And why do you have such a long life?"
The Pig-Headed Man hesitated for a moment, perhaps because he was too lonely and wanted to find someone to talk to, so he chose to tell these young children who had strayed into this place:
"The king needed me to stay here and design and maintain this level. After I did so, I was blessed with 'bronze' and have a long life and an inexhaustible source of magic power."
"But the gift of bronze is both a blessing and a curse. I have long been tired of eternal life and loneliness. As long as I don't leave here, I will have to live like this forever."
"So... your lifespan and your power all come from that being called 'Bronze'?"
The pig-headed man nodded.
"The king has been in charge of 'bronze' for generations, and has exercised the power of bronze in the world."
Now it can be explained why the gravekeeper, the innkeeper and the pig-headed man can use magic even though there is no surge of magic power in their bodies.
"Then why don't you leave here? That way you can be free, right?"
Everyone listened to the conversation between Domi, Xia and the Pig-Headed Man, and they always felt that there was a big hidden secret.
"Leave?" He shook his huge pig head:
"'Bronze' and the king, they will not let me leave. Since I accepted its blessing, I will be tied to the same boat with them forever..."
Chapter 109 The Last King
Chapter 109-108- The Last King
"The power of bronze is too strong. The dynasty rose because of it, and fell because of it. The king has long gone astray and his mind has gone crazy. We who stay here are just making the last struggle before going crazy."
"You must be from the hotel. The owner there used to be my comrade-in-arms, but now he is insane, so you see those chaotic and dark visions."
"I guess I will be even crazier after rebirth, and I will be the same..."
"Haha, it feels much better now that I've said it."
"Okay, I've said everything I need to say. Leave now. This is the land of the living dead. Your presence here only makes me envious."
When the Pig-Headed Man left, he sighed: "Death is sometimes a luxury."
After leaving the restaurant, they came to a new 'level' in order to obtain the third hole of the bird's eye stone to continue advancing the map.
The scene this time is a secret room escape from a tailor shop, where you have to escape from the giant magic scissors in the maze under the shop for half an hour.
After half an hour of running, even the cows would be exhausted!
Domi refused to take it on the spot and confronted the tailor shop owner and his scissors.
He was almost defeated, and finally he was defeated by summoning three outside aids, thus obtaining the third bird's eye stone.
After gathering the three pebbles, they headed north in the direction indicated by the pig-headed man and stopped in front of the gate of an underground palace built against a rock wall.
There are three grooves in the center of the locked door, which I guess are used to place stones.
Domi took the three of them out of his pocket and pressed them in one by one.
After a while...
Rumble, rumble——
The door slowly opened.
The structure inside the underground palace is very simple. It is just a vast hall with huge columns standing on both sides like the Pillars of Creation that support the entire palace.
In the middle of every two columns stands a bronze statue, wearing a crown and holding a scepter. I guess they are the kings of this dynasty.
They walked in the middle of the road, and even their words echoed.
At the end of the high steps stands a large bronze coffin that can hold the corpse of a giant, looking down at the people below like an emperor.
"So, the end of the road that the pig-headed man talked about is here?" Edward saw that there was nothing there, so he walked up the steps and even knocked on the coffin with his hand: "I didn't see the king he mentioned."
"Hey, don't mess around!" Ai Wei was afraid that Edward would get naughty and touch some mechanism and harm them all.
"Domi, what do you think?"
Domi seemed to have some knowledge of ancient tombs, but Xia still wanted to hear the opinions of a "professional".
He walked up the steps and examined the coffin carefully.
This is the first thing that should appear in the tomb since the people entered it, so it must have its special meaning.
He pinched his chin and thought: "Since the pig-headed man said the road is here, it must be right, we just haven't found it yet."
“When looking for a dragon, be sure to look at the mountains that surround it. Each layer of mountains is a barrier. If the gate has a thousand locks, there must be a king or a noble living there.”
Xia was confused: "What...what do you mean? It's so literary."
"We have come here after going through complex terrain and various checkpoints. This shows that this place is very important. It must be the place where the tombs of kings and princes are located. There is no doubt about it."
"Edward, come here and stand in my position."
Domi asked Edward to stand on the southeast corner of the coffin.
"what?"
"Put out your finger and light a fire on it, just a small fire."
Edward did as he was told. He stretched out his index finger and then lit a small flame between his fingers.
Domi stared at the small flame intently, muttering:
"People light candles, ghosts blow out the lights, and they survey the land and dig graves to find the stars..."
In the end, the flame on Edward's hand did not go out, and Domi finally breathed a sigh of relief, which meant that the owner of the coffin did not refuse them to open the coffin.
If the flame goes out, it means "Ghost Blows Out the Light". They'd better not open the museum, otherwise they might encounter some supernatural events.
"Phew, it's okay, come here, let's work together to lift the coffin lid!"
