Threat

Chapter 127 Threat

The sacred mountain is separated from the world of the living by yin and yang, but Li Wuxiang still felt like a living person and broke out in a cold sweat... It was so difficult to kill Zhao Kui before. He tried to kill him several times but couldn't kill him because of the incense and vows. In fact, he hasn't been killed yet, but just temporarily isolated him in the illusion.

And Zhao Qi's "blood god"... Did he forget about it for a moment just now? Was there something that almost wiped it out completely?

Li Wuxiang took out the tablet of the blood god from his stomach, lit three incense sticks and worshiped, and waited patiently for a while - he could feel the connection again, but it was extremely weak, and he didn't even know if it was his own illusion.

Zeng Jianqiu, Pan Muyun, and Helian Ji could not do this. After all, Zhao Qi still had some worship outside the parish. That was--

"Don't, don't worship me now..." Zhao Qi's voice finally rang again, sounding extremely panicked, "Wait... in two or three days... come to us... don't..."

The voice disappeared, and no matter how much Li Wuxiang chanted in his heart, Zhao Qi did not respond.

"We" means that Zhao Qi is now with Zeng Jianqiu and the others-it was not the three swordsmen who almost killed him just now.

Then it should be the master who opened the mansion that Zhao Qi mentioned, should it be Wu Meng? Is the cultivator of the spirit so strong?

And he didn't ask me to worship him again... because he was being hunted? If I gave him worship, would it make him more conspicuous in Lingshan?

Li Wuxiang was usually unwilling to hand over his fate to others, but at this juncture, he finally felt a little resentful in his heart-this foreign evil was too unreliable!

There is such a thing on my body. According to Zhao Qi, it is very likely to be the true spirit separated from Donghuang Taiyi, but it has no way to deal with the things in Lingshan!

The external evil does not owe me... No, it owes me! Li Wuxiang still doesn't know what it wants to do after possessing his body, but if it is really like what Zhao Qi saw, it is the true spirit separated from Donghuang Taiyi, then it is most likely to ask me to free it from suppression-

This idea, in Li Wuxiang's mind at this time, is very similar to an ordinary person wanting to become the "king of the world", which is so far away and grand that it is unimaginable. But no matter whether it is true or it is an external evil disguised as Taiyi, what is the current situation of this attitude?

It is naturally good to guarantee your own life, but the more he thinks about it now, the more he feels that this is an attitude of "you can do it best, if you can't, I will find someone else"-it is lying flat!

Think about it-those old grandfathers in other people's homes that you have seen in your previous life!

He temporarily suppressed the resentment in his heart, sat cross-legged on the floor of the woodshed, his skin slightly rising and falling, took three deep breaths like a human being, and then thought about the current situation--

Zeng Jianqiu, Pan Muyun, and Helian Ji were all trapped in Lingshan, and they should be being hunted down together with Zhao Qi.

If these three died in Lingshan, then even if he survived, his situation would probably be a bit awkward when he returned to Jianzong in the future-his master Lou He was a spy, his master Zeng Jianqiu was dead, and it was okay if Mei Zhangjian had nothing else to do with him. If he really had something to do with Lou He...then all the living people in his lineage were traitors, and the dead one was Wu Meng's son, how should he stay in Jianzong?

And Zhao Qi...Lingshan was mysterious and unpredictable, and it was probably the source of most of the magical powers in the world. He would definitely do a lot of things there in the future. With someone like Zhao Qi staying there, he could be trusted, and it would be much easier to do anything in the future. If he is gone this time, wouldn't he be the same person he was when he first arrived in Jinshui?

Now he wants to deal with Lou He. But how to do it then? Even the first step, lurking beside him, is extremely difficult. Wu Meng, the master of the coffin city, is so powerful that he can get people into Lingshan to fight in person. I don't know what other arrangements he has made in the city. Maybe they will be caught together.

He has never been afraid of taking risks, and even feels a little excited during the process. However, there is obviously a strong support team now! But he just sits there and watches him struggle in the outer world of Lingshan!

So Li Wuxiang no longer suppressed his resentment, but took Zhao Qi's tablet, sat cross-legged, and began to summon the external evil in his heart.

After about ten breaths, as usual, there was no response at all.

So he spoke in his heart--

"I need your help now. If you are Taiyi's true spirit, I won't force you to show up in Lingshan to help Zhao Qi and Zeng Jianqiu. You are afraid that the Six Departments of Xuanjiao will know that you are in Lingshan, right? I can understand. But you should have other ways-tell me how to save them, in detail and reliability. I can take risks with my life, but some risks are completely unnecessary, such as now."

Silence and no response.

"...Hey, you can't do this? Even if I went to my boss and said a lot of things in the place where I came from, but he ignored me completely, it was also very annoying. I said that I would not be as timid and trembling in front of you as the people here. Since you want me to help you, shouldn't we respect each other a little? Effective communication mechanism?"

After a longer silence, Li Wuxiang spoke in his heart again: "You ignore me? Good. I tell you that I've had enough, then listen to my other idea."

"Zhao Qi was almost killed just now. It took me a long time to remember him again, gave him some incense, and then heard his voice."

"Then you know what I thought? I wonder if there is a possibility that you are not the real Taiyi, but a ray of luck and a bit of his true spirit. If so, then you are just bluffing with your name. , It’s no different from those wild monsters who claim to be great gods. Otherwise, why do you only give me information and never give me magical powers?”

"So, my next thought is that you also need offerings, incense, and someone to remember you. Who in this world remembers you? Me, Zhao Qi. Zhao Qi is a ghost now, I'm not sure if you can I feel like I can’t use the ghost’s incense, because I can’t even protect myself.”

"So, the only person in this world who knows about your life...in the world of mortals is me. Without you, my situation will not be much worse than it is now. At most, I will die and be reincarnated. But without me, I guess you will It’s over. Do you know why I think that?”

"A few times ago, when I came out of the stove and hadn't practiced much, you couldn't even say anything, you could only give me feelings. Even if you threatened me, you couldn't show any magical powers, but you had to use my thoughts to call me I want to chop off my own hands."

"When I leave Deyang and practice Qi, you will be able to speak and ask me to talk to myself. So I guess, as my cultivation becomes higher, you will have more ways to interact with me. , right? The connection between you and me is not what I originally thought - you are above me, occasionally casting a glance at me to see how I, a little ant, struggle to survive."

"It should be that our lives are one, and I am your only believer and worshiper now! So don't lie down for me! If you want to lie down, I will lie down - I will go back to the illusion and wait for a year After half a year, when the ban on this coffin city is lifted, I will immediately run away and take Xue Baoping to a remote place, and I will never care about your shit again!"

After saying this, a thought emerged in his mind - if the guess was wrong and the external evil descended with the wrath of thunder, I'm afraid he would be miserable.

But he couldn't figure out whether it was his own idea or an external evil, so he immediately pressed it down and sneered in his heart - would it be better to be caught by Wu Meng or Lou He? What Lou He wants is the golden twine in his body. By then, he can't even die in a ball. What else is he afraid of the wrath of thunder!

He waited a moment longer, but there was still no response.

So, he began to try to recall a few episodes in his mind.

These fragments are different from his other memories. They cannot be completely connected, there are only sporadic fragments. He has always found this strange - except for "who he was before", most of his memories are systematic, like an edited drama, which is enough for him to understand that period of his life. What happened during a period of time.

But only these fragments are as scattered as "who I used to be"——

On the narrow streets, there are ancient six-story buildings on both sides, equipped with old-fashioned aluminum alloy windows. A considerable part of the exterior walls painted pink when they were built are peeling off.

The store facing the street also has a sliding aluminum alloy door. The black stains left in the door handle, the dusty single-layer glass, the scattered garbage and moss on both sides of the street, the blocked sunlight, and the shadows on the narrow street are all randomly placed. bicycles and tricycles.

There was a green plastic sticker on the glass of a store. It was a few words with raised edges. He couldn't remember it clearly. There was only a vague word "clinic" in the fragments of memory.

wall. The tall, green-painted wall skirts and white walls have a few protruding nails, which should be used to hang things. Is it a banner? Yes, there are several banners, and the handwriting cannot be seen clearly. "The locksmith of the soul"... "The light in the darkness"...

A man was sitting across from the table, which was covered with a thick green glass plate. He held a cigarette in his fingers. The smoke was billowing, and his face could not be seen clearly. He was talking and there was a smile at the corner of his mouth.

He felt like he should be sitting across from this person, and he could recall his emotions at that time. Like a tired person lying down on a soft and dry bed, like walking into the room from the howling cold wind and sitting by the fire, comfortable and relaxed.

This feeling was extremely rare in his previous life. It almost only existed in these sporadic memory fragments of his and the time he spent with a certain girl.

But Li Wuxiang couldn't remember who that person was. Was he a doctor? Psychiatrist? That's why there are words like that on the pennant.

He had tried to figure out that person's identity many times, but failed. It was the same this time. He remembered that the person might be his friend, or he might not.

In the past, there were many people who had known each other for a long time, but there was no friendship. There are also people who have only met a few times, but are very harmonious and pleasant to get along with, and can leave unforgettable memories. This person seems to be the latter.

What he brought to him was not only the sense of superiority in his memory, but also something else, some skills.

Li Wuxiang stopped recalling and spoke in his heart——

"If you ignore me, it will make me feel uncomfortable. I wonder if you have ever heard this sentence - silence is the greatest contempt and the most hurtful weapon."

"The harsh words I just said were too far-fetched, right? I have a Xue Baoping who I care about. No matter what I say to you, you know that I at least want to live. If a person wants to live, he may make countless compromises and concessions. If he compromises too much, the harsh words he said will become bullshit. So I said that I would take Xue Baoping to hide in a deserted place. You might think that there is still a lot of time in the future, and there will always be a way to make me give up this idea... Even if there is no way for the time being, you don't care about time and years, and you can slowly make me not care about what I said today."

"So I plan to show you a technique . You may have noticed this before. Remember when we were in the firewood room of Xue's family? I had just obtained the Huai Lu Bao Xia chapter from Zhao Qi at that time, and I practiced, and then you came. After you left, an idea popped up in my mind, but I immediately told myself not to think about it because I was afraid that you would know it. "

"What I was thinking at the time was whether you were monitoring my every move and whether you knew every thought of mine. If I could solve these problems, I would not have no - guess what I thought later? Let me tell you, what I thought later was that I was not without a solution. "[Note 1】

"You should have seen what I was thinking just now. You know what I did before. In that line of work, there are many secrets that cannot be told even if you die, but there are many ways to force people to tell those things, so what to do, I know that the few times I went to see that friend, I got a method from him-"

"I don't know the word "personality" yet, how to explain it in your world where there are really three souls and seven spirits. But from my memory, you should know "dissociative disorder" and "dissociative identity disorder", or "multiple personality disorder" These few words. "

"My friend taught me the method of inducing multiple personalities on his own for a fee. I can use this method now. Believe it or not, within three days, there will be two of me in this skin. One is my current self, but I have forgotten everything about you. All the forgotten things are in the brain of the other me. He will be an idiot with low intelligence. He can't do anything except remember you and knows nothing. I will hide him forever - I don't know if this can cut off your incense, but if you continue to pretend to be dead, let's try it together. "
