110 Essence distribution
After waiting for a while, the father-in-law of the land spoke again and asked, "How are you observing?" Did you find out the difference between them? ”
"Well, I've found the difference between them!" I nodded and replied with some excitement.
"Good! In that case, I'm going to have to speed up the screening process. Otherwise, the time may not be in time! ”
I know what the land lord means, these ghosts usually start to haunt at midnight, but by the time the rooster crows, that is, when it is almost dawn, they must hide in the shadows. Otherwise, under the invasion of yang energy, they will only have one way to "scatter their souls". It's just that I can't figure out how the land father-in-law will speed up. After all, ghosts like "zombies", because their whole bodies have become ossified, even if they want to speed up their actions, I am afraid they are powerless.
In my confusion, I heard the clear but incomprehensible chant of the incantation again. Immediately after, I saw the golden light mask suddenly brighten. Then, like the moon, the golden light shrouded outwards with a misty white light. In just a moment, the countless remaining ghosts were all enveloped in a white light. Suddenly, I felt that the time and space around me began to distort.
The ghosts of different shapes, which could still be seen clearly, immediately turned into streamers, and these streamers converged into a magnificent river very tacitly. Eventually, the water of the river rushes towards you like an imposing waterfall. I was a little shocked, and I was a little panicked. I panicked, not because I was afraid, but because I was caught off guard. This change is so abrupt!
"Is it a hallucination? Or are you dazzled? I blinked hard a few times in disbelief. In an instant, all the streamers and surging waterfalls disappeared.
"Could it be that you are really dazzled?" With this doubt in mind, I blinked my eyes a few more times. When I looked ahead again, I knew that I was not "dazzled" just now, because the originally dense army of ghosts around me had disappeared without a trace.
For a while, I couldn't come back to my senses. When I felt that my hands seemed to be a little tired, I was pleasantly surprised to realize that I had regained the ability to move. I turned around with some disbelief. "Haha, I've finally been freed from the shackles of the golden light mask!" I was a little ecstatic, "Oh, no! And what about the golden mask? How is it gone! "After a little thought, I understood. It turned out that it was not the land father-in-law who cast a spell to liberate me, but because the spell that maintained the golden light mask had become invalid, so I naturally regained my ability to act.
Suddenly, I was shocked. To my surprise, I found that there were several ghosts standing in front of me. Soon, though, I regained my composure. Because, these ghosts are all chosen by luck, and they all look very normal, without a trace of "bloodthirsty" and "crazy" at all. I saw the desire in their eyes. I know what they crave.
"Little one, can you do us a favor?" Father-in-law of the land suddenly asked.
"Yes, of course!" I replied without the slightest hesitation.
"Good!" The father-in-law of the land complimented, and then continued, "Please help us count the number of these chosen ghosts." ”
After hearing this, I immediately counted "one, two, three, ......". The chosen ghosts were all very well-behaved and quietly arranged in an orderly manner, so for me, the work of counting the money seemed extremely easy. As I spoke, I kept looking at the two immortals with the rest of my eyes. It is precisely because of this that we saw that magical scene.
When I started counting, my father-in-law was already performing the immortal method. As soon as the light flashed, all the "food essences" scattered everywhere floated in front of the immortals. With the exit of my word "two", the gathered "food essence" was actually divided into two; "Three", "food essence" has become three parts; "Four", four copies; "Five", five parts......
Gradually, I also understood the intention of the father-in-law of the land. He wanted to give each of the chosen ghosts an equal share of "food essence" without deception. It's just that this immortal's method of equalization is a little different from that of mortals, not by dividing it bit by bit with a knife, but by copying exactly the same thing very magically. This method of reproduction is obviously much fairer than cutting with a knife. After all, no matter how high the level is, it is absolutely impossible to divide it evenly without any mistakes.
"Could it be that these 'food essences' can be replicated so indefinitely?" While I was amazed, I also had such doubts in my heart. "It would be nice if I had such magical powers!" As I counted, I was still in a reverie.
I just need to find a way to get a table of delicious food first, and then divide a portion; When they have finished eating, they divide another portion; When you finish eating, you will divide it again...... If the cycle goes on and on, isn't it true that as long as you have a piece of food, you and your loved ones can continue to enjoy it? "Haha, that's fucking cool!" Thinking about it, I took it as reality, so I couldn't help but shout excitedly in my heart.
"Hey, what are you doing? Keep counting! ”
Hearing the disgruntled and doubtful reminder of my father-in-law, I immediately came back to my senses from my sweet dream, so I hurriedly counted it: "One hundred and three, one hundred and four......"
I stretched out my hand to wipe the cold sweat, and then sighed in my heart: "It's so dangerous, just now, I almost made a fool of myself!" Alas, what a sweat! Just now, I was really a little carried away, and I stopped counting unconsciously. ”
"No more cranky thinking!" After I woke up a lot in my heart, I began to count while paying attention to the immortal method of the land father-in-law again.
"Oh, that's not right!" Finally, I found out what the problem with this immortal method was. As the share of copies increased, the more dim the light emitted from those "food essences" (including the one that was copied) became. However, no matter how it changes, the copied and copied will look exactly the same. If you want to be bleak, let's be bleak together. I can clearly feel that as the amount increases, the true content of those "food essences" is decreasing by the same amount. It seems that this immortal method is not omnipotent! Otherwise, wouldn't the father-in-law of the land be able to taste the world's delicacies every day? If that's the case, then the moment when they taste the "food essence" sent by their son in the morning and noon, the father-in-law and mother-in-law of the land will not be so excited
