Chapter 769: Soul Deal!
"No one can kill the old man, unless the old man kills himself. The white-bearded old man stared at Wu Lei and said.
Wu Lei swallowed a mouthful of saliva with palpitations, thinking, fortunately he didn't make a move, if he angered this old man, I am afraid that only he will die.
He turned his head to look around, and found that there was no trace of Rao Qi in the endless sea of leaves.
"Old man, you lied to me, Rao Qi is not here at all. Wu Lei said angrily.
He now roughly knew that the old man with the white beard would not kill him at all, probably because he had other plans, otherwise he would have killed him at the first meeting.
"How can you see through the vastness of the canopy. The old man said.
The old man was right, the canopy of the tree was like an undulating horizon, and it was impossible to see the end at a glance, and if Rao Qi was far away, he couldn't see it at all with his eyesight.
"Then take me to my friend. Wu Lei said.
"Hahaha, you kid is interesting, why did the old man agree?" the old man laughed.
"Forehead ......"
"Then what are you doing when you catch me, and you don't kill me, do you just want to find someone to accompany you?" Wu Lei said.
The white-bearded old man stared at Wu Lei, and suddenly, his eyes shot a chilling light.
Wu Lei stepped back in fright, his heart full of chills.
"I've been in hell for a long time, the old man wants to see more in the world, but it's a pity that the body of the wind candle is in his last years, if you can voluntarily give me your body as a transaction, the old man can let go of your sweetheart. The old man's expression became a little sinister and treacherous, and that smile made Wu Lei creepy.
This old man is not a good person at all, the reason why he didn't let him die is that he wants Wu Lei's body, and he has to be voluntary.
Wu Lei broke out in a cold sweat all over his body, his body couldn't stop trembling, and he said in a trembling voice: "You...... You want my body?"
"That's right. The old man laughed.
But in Wu Lei's opinion, this smile made his heart furious.
"What if I don't give it?" Wu Lei said.
"The old man won't kill you, but your sweetheart may not. The old man said.
"You threaten me?" Wu Lei said very unhappily.
"Threat, sort of, you can use your body to voluntarily exchange with the old man. The old man completely lost his previous hypocritical face at this moment, the previous sanctimonious appearance was so hypocritical in Wu Lei's opinion, it turned out that in order to achieve the goal, he could do whatever it took to release him, and he was completely made a fake gesture, so that Wu Lei believed it, so that he could let go of his vigilance against this old man.
Unbeknownst to him, this old man had ulterior motives and wanted to occupy his body.
Wu Lei saw through this old man completely, and he couldn't escape anyway, he simply sat down directly, and said calmly: "If you want to kill me, it's as simple as strangling an ant, why do you need my consent to take my body." ”
"Stains, you don't know, how can snatching be voluntary and perfect, voluntary can be completely integrated, completely become a human being, the old man is tired of the dark hell world, you can rest assured, after your body returns to the old man, the old man will treat him well. The white-bearded old man showed a greedy gaze at this moment, as if Wu Lei was a hot treasure.
"There are so many people in the world, you can just grab one, why choose me. Wu Lei asked.
At this moment, Wu Lei only wants to know, what weaknesses this old man has, if he can know what the old man is from the communication, maybe find a way to get out and find Lin Yumai to deal with him and kill him, he can clean up the demon tree.
"You're different, you're special. The old man stared at Wu Lei greedily and said.
Wu Lei was stunned for a moment, pointed to himself and said, "Am I special?"
Then, he smiled wryly, he said: "This is the funniest joke I have ever heard, from childhood to adulthood, the most mediocre is me, how special, if it is special, my family will not die, and I can't be at your mercy here." ”
"You're wrong, you don't know what you're special about, if no one even tells you, you'll never know what makes you special. Whitebeard's eyes were already staring at Wu Lei unscrupulously.
"Then tell me what is so special about me, at least, before I die, I want to die a little bit clearer. Wu Lei pretended to be calm and said.
"Hehe, you don't need to know, you just need to agree to my conditions, and you will naturally understand in the future. The old man said.
"Old man, if you don't tell me, if you don't let my friend go, I won't agree. Wu Lei said.
"The old man is not afraid of your threats, because you will agree. The old man's eyes flashed with a strange light, and then he beckoned, and suddenly, a vine floated from a distance, and the unconscious Rao Qi was tied to the vine.
Rao Qi was unconscious, pale, and had no idea what was going on.
Then, from the canopy of the tree, a ghost vine chrysalis with dense fangs crawled out, and slowly appeared below Rao Qi, as if it was about to eat Rao Qi in one bite.
"Hey, old man, what are you doing?" Wu Lei immediately stopped.
"If your sweetheart enters my Devil Fruit, after hatching, I don't know what kind of beautiful creature it will become, and the old man is looking forward to it. The old man's greedy gaze revealed more ferocity.
As soon as he beckoned, the ghost vine bag opened its abyssal mouth and bit towards Rao Qi.
Wu Lei wrinkled his brows and said coldly: "You think that if you kill my friend, you can make voluntary sacrifice, you are very wrong, she is not my sweetheart at all, I just sympathize with her and feel that she is very pitiful, if you kill her, I will only hate you to the core, and I will never voluntarily agree to your conditions." ”
"Hehe, the old man won't be fooled!" the white-bearded old man smiled treacherously, and then, with a big move, the ghost vine chrysalis slowly ate Rao Qi's slender long legs, and slowly ate Rao Qi's body little by little like a python swallowing.
Wu Lei wrinkled his brows, struggling violently in his heart, seeing that most of Rao Qi's body was about to be eaten by the ghost vine chrysalis, his struggle had reached the limit.
"Old man, you let her go, and we'll talk about the conditions. Wu Lei finally couldn't help shouting.
The old man shook his head and said, "Promise first and then release the people, time is running out." ”
Soon, the ghost vine chrysalis had already swallowed Rao Qi's abdomen, and it was eating away at Rao Qi's chest little by little.
Rao Qi is a dusty woman, and then he will have some resistance in his heart, but he pities Rao Qi's experience, sympathizes with everything she has experienced, and wants her to live a normal life, and no longer do such shameful things for money, he doesn't look down on her, at most it's just a kind of inner redemption, to pull her out of that dire straits.
At this moment, this old man is provoking his inner bottom line and conscience little by little, and the old man is very aware of the weakness in his heart, that is, kindness.
He is really too kind, so much so that the dusty woman who others will despise is just a misguided little girl in his opinion.
"Your sweetheart will soon be eaten by the Devil Fruit, won't you feel distressed, one day, you will regret today's decision, regret everything you did to destroy your conscience, and watch your sweetheart die in front of you, is this the bottom line you stick to?" said the old man with a ghostly voice.
Wu Lei gritted his teeth and looked at the old man angrily, if his eyes could kill, he would kill the old man at all costs.
But it backfired, the strength of the white-bearded old man was too strong, and he was as weak as an ant in front of the old man.
Seeing that Rao Qi was about to be completely devoured by the ghost vine chrysalis, Wu Lei gritted his teeth, and finally relented: "Let her go, I promise you." ”
With a look from the old man, the ghost vine chrysalis stopped devouring Rao Qi and spit her out.
Rao Qi was still unconscious, her face pale, and she had no idea what was happening outside.
At this moment, the old man suddenly pressed his right hand on Wu Lei's eyebrows, and a heart-piercing pain followed, like a scorching burning, and Wu Lei, who was in pain, screamed.
Wu Lei slapped the old man's hand away and shouted, "What are you doing?"
"Sign the contract!" said the white-bearded old man.
"What contract?" Wu Lei kept rubbing his eyebrows, and the burning heat disappeared all of a sudden, as if the pain just now was just his own delusion.
"The moment you say yes, I'll be able to sign a contract with you, and I have to do that to prevent you from going back. The old man said.
"In other words, I don't have a choice now?" Wu Lei said with some despair.
"Yes, the contract is only to prevent you from repenting, and only if you are willing to make a deal with us, as long as you are willing to trade, the contract will prevent you from making any remorse. The white-bearded old man said.
"What a sinister fellow. Wu Lei scolded secretly.
If he didn't agree to the deal, the old man would definitely not show mercy, and would threaten him with Rao Qi's life.
But as soon as he relented, there was no room for manoeuvre.
Wu Lei sat there silently, and said a little distractedly: "I want to ask, if my body is taken by you, I ...... What about me?"
"You can choose my body, or you can choose to be a lonely ghost. The old man said directly.
"It's really not tactful at all. Wu Lei said.
"The old man has always done what he says, and he will convince you. The old man said.
"Whatever you want, take it easy. Wu Lei retorted.
"So what?"
"Now, whether you make a decision or not, your choice is ......" The old man raised his hand, as if he had seen a blind date on TV.
Your choice is...... It's your sister.
"I ...... I ......"
Wu Lei's body was trembling, and those two words became the most difficult words to say in his life, as if in the wedding hall, a couple who didn't love each other, when the priest asked if they were willing, they struggled in their hearts, and the word "willing" was difficult to blurt out.
But Wu Lei's two words are not marriage, but about life and death.
"I, I don't know how to say it, you teach me to say it again, I'll follow your thoughts. Wu Lei suddenly said.
The old man stumbled and almost fell, and he said impatiently: "Delay time?"
"No, no, no, I really don't know the contract and process of your soul trade, you must at least recite a spell or something. Wu Lei said.
"Listen, you just say this: I, Wu Lei, am willing to hand over my body to the heart of the devil. The old man said word by word.
Wu Lei gritted his teeth and said secretly: "Damn, this guy even knows my name." ”
"Hurry up. The old man urged.
"I'll take note. Wu Lei said.
"Just these few words still need to be remembered?" The old man was completely impatient, he could see that Wu Lei was just delaying time.
With a wave of his hand, the ghost vine chrysalis devoured towards Rao Qi again.
"No, I remember. Wu Lei immediately stopped.
The white-bearded old man was obviously a little impatient, and his patience was gradually lost, and Wu Lei's small methods obviously didn't work.
Wu Lei took a deep breath and his expression became solemn.
