Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Second Story

You don't know the origin of this continent yet.

The ghost city mother-in-law poured herself a bowl of tea, looked at the kerosene lamp slowly, and told the story.

A long time ago, the earth was first opened, and after tens of thousands of years of evolution, this continent was gradually formed.

In the center of the continent is the capital, which is the most prosperous place in the continent.

Directly south of the capital is Yancheng, a small barren city.

To the southeast is the water capital, a city situated on a huge island.

To the northeast is the Wind Forest, the place where the largest number of monsters gathered, and the Wind Capital is in the depths of the Wind Forest.

To the northwest of the capital is the Mausoleum of the Iron King, which is the most mysterious place.

Directly west of the capital is Thunder City, and the west side of Thunder City is the rune barrier, and after passing through the rune barrier, it is the dark domain.

In the north of the dark realm is the Northern Desert, the territory of the demon clan.

The Dark Lands, there are woodlands in the south, there are ice fields, between the dark areas and the ice fields woodlands, there was originally a fertile land, a long, long time ago, there lived a group of simple aborigines in that place, they lived from sunrise to sunset, and lived carefree.

But suddenly one day, without warning, the puppet came.

No one knows what they are, how they appeared, and where they came from.

In the pen of the remnants, this is how they are recorded.

They are like devils or undead who have escaped from hell, suddenly emerging from the ground, and they are like dark mudslides, and everywhere they pass they are extinct, and no grass is born.

They are a kind of creature that we don't know, and they can't even be described as creatures, they are formless and incorporeal, they can only survive by possessed creatures, and after being possessed, their temperament will change drastically, and they will kill people when they see them, and every possessed person will have an Ouroboros mark on their body, although I don't know what this represents, but this is the only way to distinguish them.

But one day, they suddenly appeared and slaughtered everyone near the ice field.

From then on, that place was called the puppet land.

Of course, ordinary people don't know what the meaning of the puppet land represents, they just guess and speculate on the meaning of the puppet land through various legends.

After receiving the news, the imperial court immediately ordered the blockade of all news about the puppet land, arrested all those who had seen the puppet and put it in prison, destroyed all documents about the puppet, banned the publication of newspapers and books about the puppet, and only claimed that the demon clan was marching to expand the territory.

Therefore, the people only knew that the ice field and the nearby humans were slaughtered by the demon clan, and since then people have a great hatred for the demon clan in their hearts.

At that time, all those who escaped from the puppet land were imprisoned by the imperial court, and in the depths of the ice field, people were left to fend for themselves, without hope.

There was a little girl who witnessed such a scene with her own eyes.

His father, possessed by a puppet, laughed and killed her mother, stabbing one after another, even though her mother was no longer breathing, but her father did not stop the knife in his hand.

She stared blankly, and when she came back to her senses, she found that his father had fallen in a pool of blood, and she had a knife in her hand.

Later, she was imprisoned in a concentration camp in the Ice Field.

The seeds of hatred nourished and grew in her heart.

She hated, she hated all of this.

As the little girl grew up, she learned to live a tenacious life in the concentration camp.

She traded everything she could for the hope of living.

She worked hard, using her body, everything she could exchange for the little food that could sustain her, and the little money.

She was beaten, verbally abused, doused with boiling water, and even insulted by several men together.

But she wanted to live, so she quietly prepared the things she was going to bring with her, 20 taels of silver, a black blood sigil, enough dry food for a month, and that knife.

One summer when she was 14 years old, she escaped from a concentration camp and set out for a puppet through the help of a long-bribed guard.

She had only one thought in her mind, to go back to the home where she was a child, to bury the bones of her parents, and to bury everything.

Along the way, she encounters all kinds of dangers.

But she has learned the skills to survive in this environment.

She covered her breath with the sigil all over her body, set off during the day, and when it was dark when it was time for the puppets to concentrate on their activities, she hid in the trees to rest.

She finally arrived at her childhood home, but it was already deserted.

Nothing.

She cried.

Just as she was in agony, a possessed golem spotted her.

She began to run away, and she didn't know how far she had run, but the puppet still followed her unhurriedly.

Then she couldn't run anymore, and it was getting dark.

She came to a valley where the puppet finally struck.

She fought to the death with a knife and the puppet, but her strength was too small and she was too tired.

When she saw that she was going to die.

An old woman rescues her, she is the mother-in-law of the Dark Ghost City.

The mother-in-law pulled the puppet out of her body and smashed it completely.

Since then, she has become the successor of the mother-in-law of the Dark Ghost City.

After the death of the ghost city mother-in-law, she becomes the new ghost city mother-in-law.

That's my story.

The ghost city mother-in-law added some water to her tea bowl and looked at everyone.

Gu Shun listened attentively.

"I know that your hundred ghosts copy the exercises based on the characteristics of the puppets. In fact, the puppets themselves don't have any exercises, they are like ghosts, and they are not even real creatures. ”

"Well, that's true, the white robe that Gu Shun and I fought against this time belongs to a very special kind of puppet, he can reach the realm of complete possession, that is to say, he can do all the exercises that the person he possesses. ”

Gu Shun frowned and said, "But I don't feel that he is as strong as you say." ”

Lao He said: "No, I said that if it is a white robe in its heyday, even I am very tricky, I have felt his breath, it is very weak, it should be that the soul power composition has been disintegrated, and the one who does this kind of thing can only be the Yin Candle Sect." ”

"So I think he should be the experimental subject of the Yin Candle Sect's escape, and he happened to possess your family's servants on the way to escape. ”

"Yin Candle Sect?" Gu Shun suddenly became interested.

"Yes, the Yin Candle Sect, the sworn enemy of the Lingyun Society, if the existence of the Lingyun Society is to get rid of the puppet, then the existence of the Yin Candle Sect is to become a puppet. ”

"If my judgment is not wrong, then Yancheng is going to be in trouble this time, you have to be careful of the people around you, it is possible that they have been possessed by puppets. And I think this Yin Candle Sect is here for this book of hundred ghosts. Lao He said with a solemn face.

Gu Shun thought about it, could it be that the smell he smelled on Li Yuan's body that day was......

But he didn't say it, just oh.

"Don't talk about the Yin Candle Sect, remember what I told you before, I have a new understanding of the hundred ghosts. ”

"In the first layer of the Hundred Ghost Copy's exercises, in fact, you and the white robe have not fully exerted themselves. Lao He also poured himself a bowl of tea, took a sip, and said slowly.

"Oh?" Gu Shun didn't know what Lao He meant, "I'm not a puppet, so I can't comprehend and exert the power of the Hundred Ghost Copy, it should be normal." ”

"It was only after this war that I began to study the inner exercises of the Hundred Ghost Copy, and finally understood the mystery of the first layer of the Hundred Ghost Copy. Lao He finished drinking the tea and wiped his mouth, "It is really a very domineering exercise, and only a puppet can show the characteristics of this exercise." ”

"Oh?" Hearing this, the ghost city mother-in-law and Gu Shun were very interested.

"Could it be that there is a more powerful mystery in the Hundred Ghost Copy?" Gu Shun asked.

The last time he fought with the white robe, it was really unforgettable, so he wanted to know how strong the hundred ghost copies and puppets were.

"I said that the Hundred Ghost Copying is a kind of exercise with infinite possibilities!" Lao He said with excitement on his face.

"Did you say it?" didn't you say it......" Gu Shun and her mother-in-law spoke at the same time.

"Then I'll repeat, the Hundred Ghost Copy is an extremely domineering exercise, although his foundation is only to consolidate and enhance his own soul power and divine sense, but if he uses it skillfully, there will be infinite possibilities. Lao He said triumphantly.

"The reason why the Yin Candle Sect wants to obtain the Hundred Ghost Copies is because the Yin Candle Sect needs to obtain the Hundred Ghost Copies in order to create a more perfect puppet. Lao He looked at Gu Shun and explained patiently.

"Well, let's do it, wait until tomorrow when you're a little better, I'll show you, you go to bed quickly. Lao He nodded, covered Gu Shun with a quilt, greeted the mother-in-law of the ghost city, and walked out with the door.

How many secrets does Hyakki-co-copy have? But if Hyakki-co-chan doesn't have such a powerful secret, why would so many people fight for it?
