Yin Aunt's question is very delicate.

She didn't actually know the standard of the man in red, but she couldn't show it.

Once the other party discovers that her information is missing to the point where she knows almost nothing, it becomes a very simple matter to mix the truth with falsehoods to deceive her.

Therefore, Yin Cheng behaved very calmly, as if she was asking casually with curiosity, and like a meaningful temptation.

The man in red hesitated for a moment.

If Yin Hui's ignorance of the transcendent world comes from the seclusion of the immortals, then the disadvantage of the man in red is that he has been trapped in Chenshan for many years, with illiterate miners as his companion. Not to mention what the world has become, even outside of Fan County, he doesn't know anything.

In such a situation, it is difficult to say who suffers more than whom; But if you want to ask who is more urgent, isn't it clear at a glance?

The man in red really didn't dare to bet on how much Yin Cheng knew, first, because he was very weak, and he would definitely lose when he fought with Yin Hui, and he didn't dare to take the risk to deceive and provoke the other party; The second is that even in his time, he has never seen someone like Yin Hui, who is so young and so strong.

He couldn't help but think, does Yin Cheng really have no master, or family history?

It was precisely because the man in red was not as confident as Yin Zhengzu that after hesitating for a moment, he still chose to tell the truth: "This son is not only a descendant of my bloodline, but also determined. After death, life can stay for seven days, and he is the best candidate for relinquishing. ”

Yin Ji was enlightened.

She had noticed before that on the seventh night of the death of the first king Yin Chu, the vitality had completely dissipated. But after coming to Annan County, she has also seen many people die, not to mention seven days, there are many people who have not left enough life for a day.

At that time, Yin Cheng guessed that the length of vitality was related to people's potential and will.

Although Yin Chu is sick and weak, he is a resolute person, with a clear goal, and he has regrets when he is dying, so his vitality is locked in his body for a longer time.

As for the slaves in Annan County, many of them are just living mediocre, alone, without wives and children, without goals, and without a future to speak of.

The man in red's answer just confirmed Yin Ji's thoughts.

But soon, Yin noticed another key.

The subtext of the man in red is that the seizure is a gradual process that can take days. During this time, the vitality of the body that was taken away cannot be dispersed, otherwise it will fail.

But Yin Ji remembered very well that the monster couldn't hit it in one hit, and the second time it didn't come until the evening of the seventh day.

Does this prove that the other party is stronger than the man in red?

Yin Xi thought for a moment, and then asked: "If it's just blood, looking at the entire Chen County, how many people are there that you can't give up?" Could it be that for such a long time, there is no more suitable candidate? ”

The reason why she said this was completely gambling.

As soon as the man in red saw her coming, he immediately wanted to kill the object of the seizure, and he had to complete the seizure at the risk of being discovered by her, obviously because of his urgency.

Yin Cheng wanted to know why.

Of course, she knows very well that if you ask head-on, people may not be able to tell the truth, and they can only rely on fraud.

No matter how the man in red changed from a human to a mountain god, judging by his bearing, he must have been a big man during his lifetime, either very strong, or very high-status, or both.

Therefore, Yin Ji bet that he has many heirs, flourishing branches and leaves, and after many years, his bloodline has long been integrated into the earth. Just like the families of the six eastern countries, as soon as the genealogy is taken out, each bloodline can be traced back to the period of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors.

The man in red was visibly in a struggle, and remained silent for a long time.

The more he was like this, the more Yin Ji knew that this issue was really critical.

Seeing that Yin Ji did not waver, he waited for him to answer, and in the end, the man in red still sighed and said helplessly: "Only the remnants of the Chen Kingdom can I take it away." ”

The moment she got this answer, Yin Ji suddenly became enlightened.

I see!

She had been thinking hard about how people could become mountain gods, and why, the man in red in front of her was so weak that he was about to collapse, but he could still stay conscious.

This is seriously inconsistent with what Yin Cheng knew before.

It is an inescapable fact that the weakness of the immortal seed must be accompanied by madness and depravity.

The fall of the god of Minshan Mountain has filled the main peak of Minshan with miasma, and the surrounding valleys are barren;

Although the Qiangshui water god can still maintain a certain level of sobriety, he is also in a semi-chaotic state, and in order to maintain his own strength, he does not hesitate to launch a flood, killing people's lives and dying countless karma;

The man in red is connected to Chenshan, why can he be spared?

But now, Yin Ji finally understands that the man in red is a god who uses the aura of Chenshan and the luck of Chenguo to combine them with some kind of ritual.

It is not so much that he is the god of Chenshan Mountain, but rather that he is "the god of Chenshan and Chenguo".

Therefore, Chen Guo is here, the man in red is there, and Chen Guo is dead, and the strength of the man in red is irreversibly weaker and weaker day by day.

Although Yin Ji is not very clear, what is the standard of "Chen Guo Relics", bloodline? Sacrifice? Some kind of tradition or custom?

But when she heard the word "bloodline" and thought about the hideous monster back then, she couldn't help but think, could it be that the mastermind behind the scenes was actually a certain former king of Zhaoguo?

It's not impossible.

Just imagine, when a king's life comes to an end, he suddenly knows that there is a way to give himself a longer life, more power, but at a certain price.

For example, you will not be allowed to leave a certain place for the rest of your life, your appearance will be deformed and mutated, and so on.

And how many people can resist this temptation?

Yin Ji's mood became a little complicated.

The ancestor of the Yin royal family may become a monster, and it will not stir up any waves in Yin Xi's heart, because she has no sense of belonging to the Yin royal family, which is similar to listening to outsiders.

But she didn't know what Yin Changying would think if she knew the news.

However, the stake in this matter is too great, not only can she not hide it, but she also has to write back as soon as possible and tell Yin Changying everything in detail.

There is no way, as long as she thinks of the activities that Zhaoguo has to hold every year, such as worshipping the heavens and worshipping ancestors, Yin Ji's scalp is numb - how do you know if the ancestor you sacrificed to is still alive and has become a greedy monster, waiting to take your house? And the annual sacrifice is the other party's way of positioning you?

All kinds of thoughts flashed in Yin Hui's heart, but her eyes never left the man in red.

Yin Ji knew that the man in red was waiting for her to ask, how can human beings become mountain gods.

After all, even if she guessed the principle, she didn't know the specific ritual. As long as she is interested, she will definitely find a way to get the whole process.

However, Yin Cheng has no interest in "longevity", because for her, once she goes home, a long life is at her fingertips, and she doesn't need to spend any effort to pursue it, or even go off the rails.

Therefore, she pondered for a while before asking, "I heard that there was a strong man named Ji Qingyang among the human race, what happened to him?" Has he also become a god of mountains or water? ”
