Chapter 22: Spirit

Just before Hu Lai's accident, he bought a small grass at a flower market.

The grass was very special, it had only one leaf from head to tail, and there was only one rhizome, and that leaf was so abruptly topped by the only rhizome.

This strange-looking grass is not the reason why Hu Lai bought it, the reason why he bought it was entirely because of the words of the proprietress.

"You don't need to take care of this grass, you don't need to water it, you don't need to apply fertilizer, it will grow on its own."

As an otaku with a somewhat introverted personality, just rush to the boss's wife, and Hu Lai will buy it.

And the price of that grass was not expensive at that time, and it only cost 30 yuan to buy it.

After buying it back, Hu Lai took a look at it when he had time, and it was usually nothing to do.

But what Hu Lai didn't expect was that this little grass was really as the proprietress said, and he didn't care about it at all.

At first, he was afraid that the grass would die of thirst.

But as time passed, Hu Lai found that he was really careful, and after half a month of verification, this grass really didn't care.

Not only does he not have to worry about it, but this little grass is growing very quickly.

In a short time, another leaf grew.

Seeing this scene, Hu Lai knew that he had picked up a treasure at that time.

But the tragic thing is that he had an accident the next day, and this stay stayed in the hospital for almost half a month, and he became an ant for a few days.

At this moment, when he saw the voice prompting what he needed again, Hu Lai suddenly thought of the grass he bought.

Pushing open the balcony door, Hu Lai saw the small grass still growing in the corner of the balcony.

After half a month, this little grass has grown more luxuriantly, and there are now three leaves hanging on the bare rhizome.

Each leaf looks verdant and full of life in the sunlight.

After making a series of comparisons between this grass and the grass that came to mind, Hu Lai found that all he needed for that sound was this grass.

"This is Starleaf Grass?"

Hu Lai asked, still a little uncertain.

"Well, it's Xingyue Grass." The voice said in Hu Lai's head.

"Can you tell us where it came from and where you came from?" Hu Lai asked.

The voice hesitated for a moment, then said, "This Star Moon Grass was born by absorbing the essence of starlight and moonlight, and its body contains a lot of star and moon power. ”

"If the host takes it according to my method, it can greatly increase the host's mental power, and with the improvement of mental power, the host's mind-reading magic will also be upgraded."

"As for me, the host may call me a spirit."

"Spirit?" Hu said.

This is the first time Hu Lai has heard of this title, but Hu Lai's first impression when he hears this title is the soul, so Hu Lai couldn't help but shudder, and secretly wondered if he was possessed by a supernatural thing.

"Hey, it's not what you think, I'm a spirit that evolved from a book." Ling sensed Hu Lai's thoughts and explained.

"What books can evolve spirits on their own?" Hearing Ling say this, Hu Lai couldn't help but secretly exclaim in surprise.

Feeling the surprise in Hu Lai's tone, Ling said proudly, "I am a divine book with a great background, and I have evolved. ”

After saying this, Ling's tone lowered again, "However, the body of this divine book was destroyed for some reason, and I took the opportunity to escape, and I happened to meet you who were on the verge of death, and you know the rest of the matter." ”

This kind of strange thing, Hu Lai is really the first time he has heard of it.

Although he himself usually likes to read some strange things, it is the first time Hu Lai has heard of the evolution of spirit from books.

"Then why do you need me to become an ant?" Hu Lai took this opportunity to simply want to ask the truth.

"The book itself is damaged, and if I want to survive, I must have a little power of the body." The Spirit replied.

"And what you have done is to restore a trace of the power of the book itself, only in this way can I persist in surviving for a while, and as long as I live, you will not die."

"So you became an ant, not only for me, but also for yourself, because from the moment I entered your body, we became one."

After listening to Ling's explanation, Hu Lai fully understood.

Spirits need to get a trace of ontological power to survive, and only by being flexible can they also live, otherwise they will never survive.

At this moment, Hu Lai finally understood the prompt when he first turned into an ant, "The mission fails, and the host dies." What does that mean.

However, Hu Lai realized a stricter problem, and that was the time to survive.

"You mean, the little bit of your body that I have become an ant can only sustain you for a certain period of time, not forever?"

After saying this, Hu Lai waited anxiously for Ling's reply.

"It is true, only by fully restoring my essence can we be completely free from death." Ling said helplessly.

Hearing this, Hu Lai's heart suddenly cooled half.

If this is the case, then sooner or later he still has to leave here, leaving his only sister thinking of his sister hu lai immediately asked lane dao.

"How can you fully restore your body?"

At this moment, Hu Lai suddenly burst out with a strong desire to survive.

He finally broke free from the death line, so he must live tenaciously, for himself and his sister, otherwise his previous efforts would not be in vain.

Feeling Hu Lai's desire to survive all of a sudden, his spirit was also infected.

"The host only needs to complete what I have arranged within the specified time, and then we can live forever."

"That's it?" Hu Lai asked.

"That's it." Ling replied dryly.

"Then in order for us to survive for a long time, you can assign a mission." Hu said.

It won't be long before his sister Su Momo comes, and he doesn't want his sister to come and he won't be there.

"I can only know what I need when I need some kind of energy, otherwise I can't feel it, and restoring my essence is a long-term plan, and I won't be in a hurry for a while."

"Now it's imperative to take this Star Moon Grass first to improve your mental power."

Ling said calmly.

However, Hu Lai couldn't feel the previous coldness from this tone.

In the past, the spirit called itself the host, but now it has been replaced by you, which has to say that the relationship between the two has become a lot closer.

"Okay, our life begins with this star and moon grass." Hu said.

Then Ling instructed Hu to take the method of Star Leaf Grass.
