Law of the Devil

According to the rat prime minister, when Queen Medusa was sleeping, this so-called "Evil Eye Kingdom", the prime minister was the number one leader...

With such a hostage, or a coerced companion, the three of Du Wei and a rat-shaped man marched towards Queen Medusa's palace together.

Along the way, all the mice turned around and ran away when they saw these people, which deeply confirmed the famous saying "run away with the head in your hands". In the previous chaos, the prime minister was caught, but unfortunately these mice did not regain the leadership at all. Human courage... It seems that from ancient times to the present, cowardly people have been described as "mouse gall", and it really deserves the name.

Of course, there are not only mice in this animal kingdom, but also some crows, spies Gargamel made with a little bit of magic. ", and these noisy voices annoyed Hussein, he shot up with a sword fighting spirit, killed seven or eight of them, and then dispersed.

Gargamel saw it, and couldn't help sighing in pain: "Oh, my lord knight, don't you know how much effort I have spent and how many experiments I have done to train these crows to watch and teach them to speak... ..."

Du Wei couldn't help being curious: "How did you teach these crows to speak?"

Gargamel smiled: "I am proficient in Transfiguration, so naturally I have the deepest understanding of creatures. I have spent the first half of my life studying animals. Let alone a crow, even a horse..."

"I remember I told you that if I hear you lie again, I will cut off your mouse's head." Hussein coldly interrupted the self-praise of the mouse prime minister, and the knight said lightly: "Do you think Can't I see through it? Those crows can't speak at all, but you used magic to transform their voices. Crows are not intelligent, but they at least have animal instincts, and can distinguish between knowing places and unfamiliar places. Outsiders will bark. You have magically transformed their voices, and these crows are not speaking human language at all. It’s just that you have transformed their calls into the pronunciation of outsiders. Du Wei, if you don’t believe it If so, let this mouse order those crows to say something else, if those crows can’t speak, I will immediately cut off its mouse’s head!”

As soon as these words came out, Gargamel closed his mouth obediently. Du Wei secretly laughed, but he was also quite interested in Gargamel's whimsy. It turned out that it just transformed the crow's vocal cords and tongue in a magical way. That's all. Just like the world of Du Wei's previous life, in order for the parrots to be able to speak, those who raised parrots would use utensils to flatten the parrot's tongue when the parrot was young. Although the methods are different, the general principle is the same .

Du Wei thought for a while, then smiled and said, "Gargamel, I actually understand what you're thinking. You were originally a human, but now you've become an animal. What worries you the most is being regarded as an animal that can speak human words. See Zuo is a monster, so although you live in this uninhabited place, you can't help but want to make the animals around you speak human, so that you are not alone, right?"

After hearing this, Gargamel didn't say anything, but he couldn't help showing a touch of emotion in Du Wei's eyes.

Leading to the inside of the canyon, there are two city walls that have already been built. This city wall is tall and majestic, and it looks extraordinary! Although it is simply piled up with some big stones, it looks a little rough, but it is tall enough and big enough!

"We have a lot of strong slaves. There are many treants in the canyon. They were all petrified by Queen Medusa. After being hit by Medusa's petrification technique, not only will they become stones, but if she wants, she can also Make you alive, but you will become a stone slave, without your own consciousness, a walking dead who simply obeys her orders." After Gargamel finished speaking, he couldn't help shivering: "This is the most terrible thing, even if you die There will be no rest."

Du Wei sighed: "This should also be regarded as one of Queen Medusa's terrifying magical abilities? If she is willing, she can form a stone army by just looking at some people or monsters."

"I've never doubted this. If she wants to, she can turn all the monsters in the frozen forest into stone slaves." Gargamel sighed.

Du Wei suddenly asked again: "Why does such a powerful Queen Medusa have been living in seclusion in such a canyon? The frozen forest is so big, but her territory has always only been such a small canyon?"

Du Wei began to think about it, but then they walked up a ramp and turned a corner, and they finally saw Queen Medusa's palace!

This palace is as high as the hillsides on both sides, and the main building is not made of stone, but wood! Du Wei immediately recalled the words of the tree-human leader Old Wood outside, that this palace was built from the bodies of several real tree-humans. When the loyal and docile Old Wood mentioned this matter, he was so angry Gritting his teeth, Du Wei could not help but sigh.

Gargamel stopped in his tracks and hesitated for a moment: "Are you really going in?" The Rat Prime Minister couldn't help rolling his eyes, looking around, as if he was ready to look for a chance to escape at any time.

"Yes." Hussein glanced at it coldly: "You too."

Gargamel groaned and begged, "You have to go in and find

According to Queen Kuangsha, even if you go in, the palace is not big anyway. Why do you have to take me with you? If Medusa gets angry, I will be punished! I pissed her off once, and she turned me into stone for a whole month! "

"Do you think she will have a chance to punish you in the future?" Du Wei frowned: "Did you believe that we will be killed by her after we go in?"

Although Gargamel didn't say anything, the expression on his face was clearly the same. However, he quickly saw the anger on the knight's face, and quickly said, "I haven't seen a human being in many years. I don't want you to die in vain." .It's better for you to leave now. Anyway, she never goes out of the palace. I always decide the outside affairs. If I don't say anything, just pretend that you have never been here. Wouldn't it be great? If you are aiming at the fountain of youth Come on. I can tell you that that ghost thing is useless at all. Look at me, I drank a lot of water from that ghost spring, but what good did I get?"

"We're not here for the spring water." Du Wei said lightly, "We want Medusa's eyes... Wasn't she a golden-eyed python?"

"God..." Gargamel groaned again, but this time he looked at Du Wei and the other three, almost as if he was looking at three psychopaths and dead people.

No matter how much the Rat Prime Minister refused, Hussein brought it up anyway. He put it on forcibly. Du Wei and Dardanelle both put on "sunglasses". He is cold, but he is also a smart person after all, and he will not be afraid of Medusa's strength. He also wears a pair of "sunglasses".

Pushing open the gate of the tall palace in front of them, a gust of gloomy wind blew out of the gate, and the cold air was threatening. The three of them walked into the hall, and in the gust of gloomy wind, a row of precious stones immediately shone on the walls around the hall. , to illuminate the hall.

In the spacious hall, the most eye-catching thing is a giant statue in front of it. The main body of the statue is a beautiful woman with curly long hair. Although it is only a stone sculpture, the appearance of this woman is very clear, with charming and pointed eyebrows. The chin is very seductive, but the expression is too indifferent, and besides being charming, there is a third of sinister air. Her body is almost naked, but there are a few big snakes coiled around her body, covering her body. There are several key parts. The big snakes are even more lifelike, with their heads raised and their sharp fangs exposed.

A beautiful woman and a poisonous snake. This statue is obviously mysterious and dangerous. Du Wei glanced at it, then turned back to the Rat Prime Minister with a smile, "This must be your masterpiece? Can't Medusa know how to carve? I can't see that you have a good carving skill."

Gargamel smiled wryly: "I have been facing rocks in this canyon for twenty years. Even if I don't know anything at first, twenty years is enough for me to learn a lot."

After bypassing the stone carvings in the main hall, there is a door behind, after opening the door, you can see a straight passage to jump in, Du Wei stood at the door and took a look, immediately frowned and said: "Well, this is a magic circle. Gargamel, is this what you taught her too?"

Looking in from this doorway, the passage is almost bottomless, and it seems endless from a distance... But how can a palace be so big? Apparently, it was enchanted by the owner, making this passage a very useful defensive facility. If someone who does not understand magic walks in, he will go straight forward, endlessly, and never reach the end.

"This is actually using magic to deceive your eyes and senses. If you just walk in like this, you think you have walked a long way, but in fact, you are just stepping on the original path. A small deception must be broken It's very simple, just close your eyes..." When Du Wei said this, he suddenly paused, showing a thoughtful expression, and whispered meaningfully: "Yi... the most terrifying weapon of Queen Medusa is Her eyes are watching, but the magic circle she set up makes all outsiders who enter have to close their eyes, isn't it because she has given up one of the most powerful weapons?"

Or maybe, I just don't want to hurt my own people by mistake?

Du Wei immediately gave an explanation in his mind.

Afterwards, three people and one mouse closed their eyes and walked into the passage. Du Wei has a strong sense, and Hussein is close to the level of paladin's strength, with keen senses, and there is no big difference between opening and closing eyes. And Dardanelle Naturally, there would be no problem following the two of them, and Gargamel would go the way he was used to.

After entering the passage, the magic circle really lost its effect. After a while, the current Hussein touched the handle of the second door, but after pushing it open, the three of them opened their eyes and were stunned...

After the second door... it was actually completely black! There is no light at all! !

"There are no lights in the backside." Gargamel said in a low voice, "Unless you bring your own torches."

"It's always been like this?" Du Wei asked Prime Minister Mouse.

After getting Gargamel's affirmative answer, Du Wei suddenly smiled, a meaningful smile.

"This Queen Medusa is really strange... If the magic circle makes people close their eyes, it is just a coincidence. But the place is completely dark, as if she is afraid that others will come in by mistake and be petrified by her! Couldn't she Worried about hostile guys from outside breaking in? For example, we seem to be forcing us not to see her eyes. She gave up her biggest weapon on her own initiative, why? ".
