Chapter 1: A Fork in the Road
The bus was still speeding under Li Shuai's driving, leaving a series of whistling shadows on the straight road.
In the car, Li Shuai rarely did not put heavy metal rock, but put on a country-style song, and the voice was not adjusted to a very large level, and everyone felt more or less relaxed after listening to it.
Although Qin Wanqing died in the last incident, they lost one person. But in fact, this loss is insignificant, and even a blessing for Seon.
After all, Qin Wanqing's ability was there, and her storage was not only not helpful, but it was more like a time bomb lurking around them, and it suddenly exploded when she couldn't figure it out. At that time, one of them will be counted as one, and they will inevitably be affected.
In addition, Qin Wanqing's relationship with everyone was not very good before, so her life and death did not arouse everyone's concern, and she was completely regarded as a passerby.
But then again, although the loss of personnel is almost zero, the loss of "ability" is heavy.
The most important of these is Xiao Mo's mirror.
Xiao Mo guessed that the mirror was spying on him, not protecting him. But I have to say that from the time he entered the curse to the present, this mirror has helped him resolve the crisis more than once, and has saved his life many times.
Even if you don't talk about yourself, just talk about the benefits that the storage of the mirror can bring to everyone, which is also extremely important.
Because the mirror can make ghosts disappear for a short time, and most importantly, it also has the ability to inhale ghosts, especially against evil spirits.
You must know that the existence of the little ghost head is only among the evil ghosts, and even among the ghosts, it is an extremely special exception, and 99% of the evil ghosts are still the kind of fierce gods who only know how to kill, and are so powerful that they almost want to suffocate them. A casual blow would kill them on the spot, and they would not have the slightest power to parry.
And this mirror is obviously what they have always relied on when facing evil spirits.
But now. The mirror has reached the point of frequent breakage, and if it continues to be used, the mirror will undoubtedly be completely shattered, and when the ghost door in the mirror is opened, no one knows what will happen.
With Xiao Mo's caution, coupled with his speculation about the existence of the mirror, he didn't dare to completely shatter the mirror. Therefore, the service life of this mirror is basically over by now, unless it is really to the point where it must be used, and it will die if it is not used. Otherwise, Xiao Mo didn't plan to touch it again.
Except for Xiao Mo's mirror, he tried his best in the incident one after another, which greatly reduced the number of Chen Cheng's magic weapons. After all, ritual tools need materials to make them, not endlessly.
Therefore, in Chen Cheng's heart, he had also decided to reduce the use of magic weapons in the future, and he also lit the soul lamp not long ago, which was also an important factor in making him make this decision.
The little follower used his transformation ability in the last incident. So in the next three incidents, she could only honestly maintain normalcy. Of course, there may be a way to make her transform early, but there is undoubtedly a price to be paid for doing so.
But compared to Xiao Mo. Chen Cheng, as well as the little followers, and Li Shuai's loss is undoubtedly much stricter, because it has reached the point of endangering life.
The old man's words were clear. If there is no way to solve it, Li Shuai will have two months to live, and at least a month to die.
Because the objectification of ghosts has spread to his internal organs. Once it spreads completely, then Li Shuai will become a ghost in an instant. After that, it will be obvious what will happen, he will be controlled by the tyrannical feelings of the ghosts, and then carry out merciless killing of those around him.
Although Xiao Mo didn't dare to say that he absolutely knew Li Shuai, he knew him the most among everyone. Don't look at Li Shuai's "giggling" on the surface, he looks like a stunned young man with no head and no brains, and like a ruffian who runs a train with a mouth. But in fact, the real Li Shuai is obviously not such a person.
A person who is about to enter the palace of the newlywed, but watching his fiancée, and even his parents, die tragically, this kind of blow is far from being able to withstand by ordinary people.
And from some of Li Shuai's words on weekdays, it can be heard that he not only lost his parents and fiancée, but also lost his relatives and friends. It can be said that he experienced a blow that ordinary people could not accept.
You say he's optimistic, you call him crazy, you say he's not doing anything right. That's right, this is the current Li Shuai, because there is no way for him not to be optimistic and not to be crazy.
Because if he was a little pessimistic and normal, then I am afraid he would have committed suicide a long time ago.
He remembered that Li Shuai had told him at the time that he would enter No. 2 Qingming Road, and that Ling Hao had tricked him into coming in with a lie. That lie is to have a chance to resurrect his fiancée and parents in the curse, such an unrealistic lie, Li Shuai believed it at the time, it can be seen that he really took this fantasy as a reason for him to continue to live.
After the research meeting was shattered, Ling Hao's lie was exposed, and at that time, he felt a deep despair from Li Shuai's body. Perhaps, perhaps, at that time, Li Shuai was thinking about death, but fortunately, he recovered later.
However, not long after, he suffered another fatal blow, Mu Xue's death.
Mu Xue, this has a very important role in Li Shuai's heart, Li Shuai said that Mu Xue is very much like his fiancée. At first, he thought it was Li Shuai's joke, but gradually he found out that it might be as Li Shuai said.
So come to think of it, the person who made Li Shuai decide to continue living at that time should be Mu Xue. It was Mu Xue who made Li Shuai feel that he should be trying to live.
But the good times didn't last long, and Mu Xue died tragically in the "Desperate Challenge".
Mu Xue's tragic death also greatly stimulated Li Shuai, and it was from that time that the frequency of changes in his body intensified.
And this time, the person who let Li Shuai continue to live is himself. Because they have become brothers unknowingly in a series of events.
Although Li Shuai once again recovered from Mu Xue's bad news, he knew very well that Li Shuai's recovery was just a perfunctory. Because he had discovered his physical problems, he knew that his life was not long in coming.
So......
Xiao Mo raised his head and looked at the rearview mirror, Li Shuai's leisurely face was clearly reflected in the rearview mirror, which looked extremely comfortable, and there was no trace of fear of death at all.
Yes, because he has always felt that death is the best place for him.
"But...... I'll let you live! ”
Xiao Mo clenched his fists and swore in his heart.
At the same time, the bus also came to a fork in the road. (To be continued......)
