Ming Shifei walked into the rattan house, the furnishings in the house were very simple, futons on all sides, a few plans, two teapots, a pot was steaming, and the teacup in front of him exuded a faint fragrance.

"Sit down." Behind the case was a long, blue-haired man, kneeling in front of the screen, without any decoration, his long hair was spread softly on the rattan mat behind him, and it was difficult to estimate the length of the departure at a glance. The man's forehead is dotted with a half-leaf-like blue mark, the sword eyebrows on both sides add a bit of heroism, but there is a haze in his eyes, which makes people unable to see clearly, under the straight nose bridge are two thin lips, and the upper lip flap is slightly turned up, dissolving the yin at the corners of the mouth.

"This is a contradictory senior," such a thought came to the mind of Ming right and wrong when he saw the person in front of him.

"Let's introduce myself."

"Okay, Senpai. My name is Ming Shifei, I am 27 years old this year, and I formed a two-soul contract with my predecessor, and then came to the prison world. This time I took the liberty to visit my seniors to ask about some arrangements for my good friend Jiang Daodao. Also, I would like to learn from you about the power of the name. ”

"Then let me introduce myself. Despise numbness. Shou Ma stretched out his slender fingers and lifted the placket with the blue edge of the ink, and his voice was indifferent. After Emperor Shun defeated me that year, he imprisoned me here. Unable to banish me from this world, he cut off my legs and forbade me to move freely. So the legs you see are actually made of trees by me. ”

That's a lot of information...... Ming Shifei was stunned by this series of introductions, but if it was the first time he saw the ancients nearly 4,000 years ago, he would behave at a loss, and he didn't know how Lao Jiang communicated with him. No, the senior said before that Shouma's predecessor was not imprisoned here. What's going on?

"Senior, I asked Senior Pig before, and he said that you are not imprisoned here, so you live here because of your mobility problems? Sorry senior! I was offended! As soon as the words came out, Xiao Ming regretted it, this question was too embarrassing to ask.

"Hehe, that's not the case. The pig said this only because of my special status. Did you find anything special about this place after you arrived? ”

"What's special? You don't seem to have windows in your house......"

"Hahaha, interesting, interesting! You're right, I don't need windows here, and I don't need sunlight here. I'm a shadowless person! ”

Ming Shifei looked down, and then he reacted, he didn't see a shadow all the way, he thought it was because the light source was too much and too dense, but there was still a blurred shadow under his own feet, but Shou Ma himself and even all the furnishings in his room had no shadow, showing a strange color.

"Don't be surprised, there's no shadow of the Prison Code either. In fact, if anyone gets close to Jianmu itself, the shadow will disappear and be absorbed by Jianmu, otherwise what do you think Jianmu relies on to build space? ”

"I see, in other Prison Realms, the light is too dim, I didn't even notice this before."

"That's how your friend found out, so he could find me before you did." Shou Ma paused, took a sip of tea, and continued: "The power of 'name' that I have mastered is 'shadow', and I even integrate the power of creation into the shadow, which can ignite the shadow to generate consciousness. Back then, my tribe was actually made up of the shadows that produced consciousness. That friend of yours wants me to teach you this ability, and then you can pull the shadow out of the criminal body of the prison realm and ignite the shallow consciousness. ”

"No, Lao Jiang's plan won't be like this." Clearly refute it with great certainty.

"Huh? How did you guess? Shou Ma was a little curious. Before, Jiang Daodao said that he was not afraid that he would revise the plan and calculate right from wrong, and the reason was only trust, and this kind of use was unacceptable to him.

Xiao Ming just shook his head, he also reacted now, Lao Jiang would not let him do aggressive behavior, so pulling out the shadow of the criminal must be what he wanted Shou Ma to do. In other words, the act of drawing out the shadow is an evil act, and it is a merit to defeat or even kill the shadow. Then, Lao Jiang wanted me to learn the power of the name "shadow" to maintain the "shadow" that ignites consciousness, so that it will be smooth.

"Senior Hedgehog, can you hear me?" Xiao Ming meditated silently in his heart.

"Yes. Do I need to intervene? ”

"I'm in trouble with my seniors."

An extraordinarily condensed aura shrouded the body of Ming Right and Wrong, and the Fujiya was shaken and crumbling, and the hedgehog directly showed a soul phantom, and the single horn pointed to Shouma.

"Okay, okay, I'll throw in the towel! I promised Jiang Boyzi a bet before, and I came out. "In the face of the imposing hedgehog, Shou Ma was not panicked, but was extremely calm." You can take him back, you also have my cultivation experience. ”

"Humph!" The pig didn't say anything, and returned to his palace with a clear sense of right and wrong.

"Interesting...... Accept apprentices? I feel like Mr. Jiang and I are still compatible. ”

——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

"Here we are."

Ming looked around, saw the front hall and the corridor, and knew that this should be the area where the pigs lived.

"Here's for you." The pig handed Xiao Ming an ancient scroll, on which was written the word "Sacrifice". "This is the former sacrificial text of Shouma country, which sings about Shouma's understanding of 'shadow'. The country of Shouma is a country composed of shadows, and they rely on the power of 'shadows' to heal diseases and resist disasters. ”

"Is Shouma's predecessor imprisoned here because he collected other people's shadows?"

"The old man said before that he is not a criminal and his sins have been paid long ago. Except for Shouma, no one is born without a shadow, he is actually the soul deed of Jianmu. ”

"Jianmu!" Ming was shocked by this ancient secret. No wonder Emperor Shun will arrest and imprison Shouma, the legend says that Emperor Zhuan Didi Tiantong should be the one who destroyed Jianmu, and Jianmu chose to sign a double soul contract with Shouma before it was annihilated, which should be fused with Shouma through the nature of plant symbiosis, and the current Shouma is part of Jianmu! Wait, the "Prison Codex" is also made of wooden skin, can it be said?

"Looks like you've got it in mind. That's right, the "Prison Code" is to use Shouma's ability to quickly form so many spaces to imprison criminals and their ethnic groups. ”

"What is Lao Jiang's plan?"

"Jiang Boy is very confident in you, and he makes a bet with Shou Ma: if he wins, Shou Ma will attach a small piece of wood skin to each game device, and the player's shadow will be ingested into the prison realm during the game, and even adjust it according to the appearance specified by the player. And after the shadow is formed, you have to ignite its consciousness, and lead this weak consciousness to sign a double soul contract with the subject, so that the subject can consume soul power to descend on the shadow. ”

Lao Jiang's plan is as risky as ever, but if it comes to fruition, the core problem of limiting "Mountains and Seas" will be solved. However, Xiao Ming still felt that Lao Jiang would cheat himself, so he asked, "What if you lose?" ”

"Jiang Xiaozi said, if he loses, he will let you go free."

"If Shouma's predecessor is willing to help, it is also reasonable to give him freedom, and you also say that his sins have been repaid."

"No, the freedom of Shou Ma means the destruction of the Prison Codex, after all, the Prison Code can only be maintained by his ability. What Jiang Xiaozi said at the time was that if he lost, he would work hard with you to practice the power of 'name', and then kill all the criminals in the prison world, and then let Shouma go free. He also said that it was actually good to lose, and he could worship one more master. What a slippery boy! ”

"Senior, with my understanding of Lao Jiang, he should really want to let Shouma's seniors out, because he only agrees with transactions and never gambles. So I'm going to work on it too. ”

"Haha, so the old man is relieved. In the past thousands of years, only Shou Ma can barely be regarded as half a friend, and if my soul dies or ascends, he will be the only one left. "Feeling the sincerity of right and wrong, he suddenly felt that his last few years would be very interesting." Those old guys are a little dishonest when I am approaching my birthday, and it seems that the old man is going to beat them. ”
