187 The Pain of Burning
"Hehe, don't blame me for speaking badly, there is only one result for you to come here, and that is to suffer from the 'burning of fire'!" The self-righteous ghost said with a grim face. γγ
This is really a pot that can't be opened! The more I am afraid of coming, the more he comes! After such a disturbance by the ghosts, I have long forgotten what I feared most. However, what a terrible word for "burning with fire" ...... now? My poor lost body, after such a "burning" by "fire", even if I still have the possibility of recovery, it will definitely end up with a tragic ending of "I can't die anymore". I couldn't help but shudder when I thought of it. Of course, in the eyes of these ghosts, I seem to be afraid of the suffering of "burning myself".
No, what I fear is never to be with my loved ones again, not to be "burned"! But self-righteous ghosts don't know that! Then why did he emphasize to me the suffering of "burning in flames"? Could it be that when I am "burned by fire", I instantly regain consciousness? Am I not going to be burned alive? This, that's a little too cruel, isn't it?
No, it's still not! How can a self-righteous ghost not even know that I am not dead, so how can I conclude that I will regain consciousness when I am burned? Self-righteous ghosts think of me as a real undead. As long as it is a dead soul, it must have completely lost contact with its own physical body. In other words, no matter how the fire burns, the soul of the dead cannot perceive any pain. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but taunt: "You don't have a cold and fever, right?" What's all this nonsense? β
The self-righteous ghost was not angry when he heard this, but asked rhetorically, somewhat inexplicably, "Why am I talking nonsense?" β
"Then, you know that all the people who come here are dead, so how can you say the suffering of 'burning your body by fire'? I wondered, could a ghost still feel the pain of his own 'flesh'? If he or she can really feel it, then it can't be called a 'ghost'? "When I was done, I looked at the self-righteous ghost with a playful look." Hmph, I'd like to see, how can you justify yourself? At the same time, I snorted coldly in my heart.
"Haha, I have to admit that you are indeed smart!" The self-righteous ghost said proudly, "It's a pity that this time you were clever and you were mistaken by being smart." Let me ask you, do you remember what I mentioned to you before that many times, the protΓ©gΓ©s of us Divine Monarchs call ourselves 'immortals'? β
I was laughed at by the self-righteous ghosts. However, when I heard his reminder, I realized that I did seem to have made a small mistake. "Do you mean that in this particular space, you can make the impossible possible?" I asked, frowning.
"Haha, you're really smart this time!" Regardless of whether such praise sounds sarcastic or not, the self-righteous ghost says, "I don't think you would believe me, no matter how fanciful I am." β
I felt my face turn red and white, but I still stubbornly asked, "Do you want me to witness someone suffering from 'burning in flames'?" β
"Haha, smart!" The self-righteous ghost doesn't know whether it is intentional or unintentional, and it seems that "praise for cleverness" is addicted, "Echo worm, come out!" β
In my mind, I quickly developed a certain immunity to the praise of self-righteous ghosts as "smart", so I just watched quietly and unappetly.
"Yes, sir!" With a respectful reply, a groveling ghost figure emerged from the crowd.
"Did you understand the consciousness in my words just now?" The self-righteous ghost asked with a condescending gesture.
The groveling figure not only did not have any dissatisfaction, but replied more respectfully: "Lord Hui, the kid has fully understood!" β
"Well, let this newcomer know. Remember, what's at stake, you must not mess me up! The self-righteous ghost shouted in a commanding voice.
When the groveling figure heard this, he immediately landed on his knees and replied tremblingly: "The villain doesn't dare, the villain must do his best to live up to the trust of the adult!" β
Seeing this, the self-righteous ghost didn't bother to speak again, just nodded encouragingly.
The groveling figure looked at it, but it was like being pardoned, and he quickly knelt down and retreated a certain distance in fear, and then stood up. One turned, the other swayed, and came to me ghostly.
"Oh, no wonder people call you 'Echo Bug'! You're a little spineless, aren't you? Thinking of this, I felt contempt for the grovely figure in front of me.
However, when this groveling figure faced me, his eyes were not only not groveling, but also full of coldness. It seems that this guy is not optimistic about me either. Perhaps, in his eyes, soon, I will become like him, or even inferior to him.
For some reason, looking at this cold look, I felt a panic in my heart. Soon, though, I calmed down. Perhaps, this kind of panic is exactly what the Divine Monarch who is full of conspiracy behind him wants to see the most. I, of course, can't make him happy.
There was silence for a while, and the groveling figure held out a finger to me. I know this is his attempt to get me into the "ghost". When I was in the hospital, I encountered this situation. Instead of panicking, I was distracted by the incredible things I had seen in the "ghosts" of the "headless male corpse" and the "good ghost". Of course, I don't have any feelings for the "headless male corpse", but I miss the "good ghost" quite a lot. I don't know, now, how are the "good ghosts" doing? Hopefully, he won't be devoured by the demons in the hospital because of me. Whenever I have the chance, I will definitely give something back to the "good ghosts". Alas, it's just that I don't know if I can get through this hurdle!
Just when I was infinitely sad, a cold cold invaded my body from my forehead. I quickly gathered my thoughts, because I had a lot of secrets that I didn't want to know about these ghosts and the gods behind them. Now, I'm not a rookie anymore. I know that if I don't keep my mind right, then what I'm thinking will probably be noticed by these ghosts. I only felt a trance in my consciousness, and in a haze, many ghosts in front of me magically disappeared out of thin air. I knew that I had fully entered the "ghost" of the groveling figure
