Chapter 83: Ghost Heart
Mi Qing was hard-mouthed, and she said just now that she was not afraid, but when she really reached the edge of the cemetery, she couldn't help but shudder, and instinctively hid behind Wu Zheng's back, while carefully tugging at the corner of Wu Zheng's clothes.
Wu Zheng felt that Mi Qing's hands were trembling, and even felt that Mi Qing's body was sticking to his back little by little, and he couldn't help but feel a thrill, his body trembled, and he hurriedly took a step forward slightly, but he didn't want to have physical contact with a girl in such a place.
"Brother Zheng, what's wrong with you?" Mi Qing asked.
Wu Zheng said embarrassedly: "Uh...... It's a bit cold. ”
In order to avoid embarrassment, Wu Zheng hurriedly walked a few steps on the edge of the cemetery, and observed the situation of this ancestral grave by the way.
The old village chief said solemnly: "Master, do you want me to take you to find out who is in each grave?" You see, inside this is my great-grandfather, and inside this is ......."
Wu Zheng was stunned for a moment, and then said helplessly: "Stop, stop, I know what these are doing." "The heart said that this is your family's ancestral grave, what does it have to do with me, do I need to know who is lying inside?
I'm not here to recognize my ancestors......
The old village chief raised his forehead and asked suspiciously: "Master, what kind of medicine are you looking for?" Is it herbs? I know that some herbs only grow in the graveyard. ”
Wu Zheng thought about it slightly, then nodded, and said with a smile: "Old village chief, you are right, some herbs do only grow in the cemetery, and the herb I am looking for has deep roots, and when I pull it out for a while, it will bring up a lot of grave soil." ”
The old village chief suddenly came to his senses and muttered: "I see, no wonder I have to come to my ancestral grave, if I go to someone else's grave to pull herbs, it will cause unnecessary misunderstandings if they are discovered." ”
An imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of Wu Zheng's mouth, and then he said: "Old village chief, I still have some formalities to go through before pulling out the herbs, you go back first, I will rush back after everything is finished." ”
The old village chief was worried: "Master, this is some distance from the village, and I'm afraid that you two won't be able to find your way back for a while, so I'd better stay." ”
Wu Zheng muttered in his heart, it's okay for you to stay, but I'm afraid of scaring you for a while, your old body can't stand the fright, don't save your grandson when the time comes, I have to save you in turn.
Wu Zheng said: "It's such an old village chief, I will do it for a while, and I will attract a lot of ghosts to help me find herbs, first, I am afraid of scaring you, and second, those ghosts will not cooperate with me when they see the living, so you still listen to me, my memory is good, and I have already written down the road when I came." ”
Having said that, the old village chief no longer insisted, and left step by step.
When the figure of the old village chief disappeared completely, Mi Qing sneered and said, "Brother Zheng, I didn't expect that your level of lying is quite high, and you have deceived the old village chief." ”
Wu Zheng was stunned and wondered: "Where did I deceive people?" ”
Mi Qing said: "Okay, don't pretend, brother, I know you're a liar, if it's really just looking for herbs that grow in the cemetery, you will definitely find a cemetery nearby, why are you running so far?" ”
After thinking for a while, he pointed to this cemetery: "And you see, there is something wrong with this cemetery, every grave is bare, there is no grass in it, where is the herb?" ”
Wu Zheng grinned: "Qing'er, what a smart girl, but you may not know that some herbs do not grow on the surface, but are buried deep underground, but this is not the point, you are right, I really am not looking for herbs." ”
Mi Qing pouted and said, "It's all this time, can't you still tell me the truth?" What the hell are you looking for? ”
Wu Zheng rolled his eyes, scratched his head and said, "Okay, then tell you, what I'm looking for is ...... Heart! ”
"Huh? Heart? Mi Qing was taken aback, "Isn't it, Brother Zheng, you are going to kill people for the sake of a baby?" ”
Wu Zheng glanced at her and said, "What do you think?" Killing people is not allowed by the laws of the yang world and the underworld, and besides, killing another person for the sake of one person, where is the solution to the problem? ”
Mi Qing nodded, smiled awkwardly, and said, "I'll just say, how can Brother Zheng do such a thing...... Ah, when you come to this graveyard to look for the heart, are you looking for the heart of a corpse? ”
But if you think about it carefully, people's corpses will decay quickly after burial, where is there still a heart? Unless it's just a few days after the burial, that's still a bit of a possibility.
Thinking that Wu Zheng was going to dig a grave and open a museum next, and he had to dig open the stomach of the corpse and take out the heart, oh my God, Mi Qing felt a chill in his heart.
Wu Zheng saw that Mi Qing's face was wrong, and said helplessly: "Look, you are thinking nonsense again, what can the heart of the corpse be for?" I'm looking for a ghost heart! ”
When Mi Qing heard that he didn't dig the grave, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but a spirit shouted again: "Ghost heart? Wouldn't it, ghosts still have hearts? Isn't a ghost an illusory shadow? ”
Wu Zheng took Mi Qing step by step into the cemetery, and explained: "How should I explain this to you, under normal circumstances, ghosts are indeed an illusory existence, and they can change various forms, and if you want to become a real person, you must possess yourself." ”
"But if ghosts don't choose reincarnation, but choose to practice, then the longer the ghosts practice, the stronger their abilities will be, and the closer they can get to normal humans, the ghost heart will grow little by little in the process of cultivation."
"To put it in layman's terms, it is similar to the inner pill in the goblin's body, and it is a thing that maintains cultivation and ability."
Mi Qing's eyes blinked, and he seemed to understand whether he understood or not: "It's like the heart of our ordinary people to sustain life, that's why the thing that maintains ghost cultivation is called the ghost heart, is that so?" ”
Wu Zheng sighed and said: "Forget it, if you say it too deeply, you won't understand, just understand it according to your thoughts, anyway, you just need to know that the ghost heart is extremely important to the ghost, and losing the ghost heart is equivalent to losing the cultivation, and returning to the original state of the ghost." ”
Mi Qing sighed, feeling that this world is really not as simple as he imagined, he originally thought that ghosts and monsters were simple evils, but he didn't expect that there was such a magical existence as a ghost heart.
"Hey, no, Brother Zheng, since the ghost heart is so important to the ghost, how can you find it? What ghost would give you a heart? Mi Qing half-tilted his head and asked, "Could it be that you want to rob it hard?" ”
Wu Zheng said: "You can't grab it, since you have said this, I'll give you more science popularization, some evil people, including ghosts, as long as you choose the path of cultivation, there will be two differentiations, that is, positive cultivation and evil cultivation." ”
