Chapter 177: The Second Man Who "Becomes One."
Looking at the grocery store owner who suddenly knelt down in front of me, I was a little overwhelmed and a little stunned, I hurriedly stepped forward to help him up and said, "What are you doing, you have something to say, get up quickly......"
The thrift store owner got up, wiped his tears, choked up, and said, "So you promised to help me with this?" ”
"Actually, even if you hadn't brought us here, we would have come here, after all, we have our own purpose...... Why should you sacrifice so much? Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info" I sighed as I said.
But before the grocery store owner could speak, Li Zhisheng behind him said: "I can't say that, if it weren't for the sacrifice of this boss's daughter, I'm afraid we wouldn't have noticed the signs of illness earlier." In this case, when we come to this town, I am afraid that it will already be more than lucky. ”
I thought about Li Zhisheng's words, and it was true, if it weren't for that girl, we wouldn't have been able to know all this in advance, and we couldn't have prevented it in advance.
Just as he was thinking, the grocer cleared his throat and said to us, "No matter what your purpose is, please be sure to get rid of the source of this calamity...... "Halfway through, he lowered his voice and continued, "Although I am not qualified to say such things, after all, this calamity is caused by me......"
Seeing that he was very guilty, I said, "Don't say that, if what you tell us is true, then you yourself are a victim, and the culprit is not you, but the rich businessman." Now, can you tell me where the rich merchant is? If he finds it, he might find a solution......"
When I asked about the merchant, the grocer said meaningfully, "He's dead...... He died more than a decade ago......"
"What?! He's dead?! My eyes widened in surprise.
The innkeeper nodded and said, "You heard him right, he is indeed dead." Although I don't remember it very well, I still have some impressions of this incident, which was the second year he moved to this town, and he went out to the mines as usual, but when he came back, he suddenly went berserk and died mysteriously that night. ”
"The reason why he died is bizarre is because the way he died was different from the way he gnawed to death after committing an illness. He did not have any external injuries on his body, and the forensic doctor from other places could not find out any cause, the forensic doctor only said that he died of normal aging, not even any disease. But at that time, he was in his forties......"
After that, the wealthy merchant company withdrew its capital and left the town, never to be seen again. And the mayor of this town began to become a little strange from that time, he not only arranged security guards in front of his house, but also built a stone tablet in the town. I think you've already seen it......"
Hearing this, the Dead Apostle spoke, "Is the stone tablet you are talking about the one with the words on it upside down?" ”
The grocery store owner nodded and said, "Exactly, based on my many years of experience as a feng shui master, that stone tablet is not used to ward off evil spirits, but for another purpose. In addition, the writing method of the words on the stele is also very strange, and the way the characters are carved is not only upside down, but also the order of writing is also reversed......"
"So, you know what it's written on?!" The Dead Apostles hurriedly asked.
"I do know that the content above is the content of an ancient book, and the name of that book is "Divine Strange Sutra: Nine Star Atlas", I don't know if any of you have heard of it......"
"No, the full title of that book is Divine Vision: Nine Stars of Life and Death......" I added.
The thrift store owner's eyes widened when he heard me, and he looked at me with wide eyes in surprise and said, "Not many people in the world know the real name of this book, why do you know?" Do you have that book, show it to me......" He took a few steps closer to me and reached out to me for a request.
Seeing that his behavior was a little abnormal, I subconsciously took a few steps back and said vigilantly: "I do have this book, but it is not on me now." Just tell us what is recorded on the stele...... Don't you still want us to help? If you tell me the truth, I might even be able to figure out how to crack it. ”
The thrift store owner knew that he was a little out of shape, so he hurriedly calmed down and said, "If you don't use my words, since I want to ask you for help, I will definitely tell you the reason for the matter." Besides, I am a dying man, so what reason do I have to deceive you again...... As the saying goes, when a person is dying, his words are good. ”
With that, he pulled a hand out of his cotton coat and rolled up his sleeve to show us. I saw that the arm he had raised was already like a withered tree, and the dark brown skin was stuck to the bones, and there was no trace of blood for a long time. There was a faint mark on his arm that was the same as on my hand, but it was black, just like when I was first inscribed.
When Li Zhisheng's people behind him saw this scene, they couldn't help but gasp in unison. But I didn't, because I clearly knew that I had seen such symptoms before, and it was the price of Yin Li combining his soul and void spirit into one, no wonder his strength was enough to compete with Yao Long.
Thinking, I frowned and asked, "How long have you been doing this......
"Looks like you know what this is......" he said to me with a sigh as he lowered his sleeves and re-dressed himself, "more than two years...... I did this at first to protect myself, but I didn't expect it to hasten my death. ”
"You mean, you did it without knowing the side effects of it? So how did you find out later? ”
After asking, I thought he would show a sad expression, but unexpectedly, he said calmly: "I know that this method is also because I have heard the rumors of some fellow believers before, but none of them have succeeded." At the time, I was just thinking about giving it a try, and I did it......"
"I didn't expect that I would succeed, but the pain also followed, the body continued to fail, and the whole person became weaker and weaker, as if something was constantly pulling out life...... It wasn't until later that a master who was passing by discovered my condition and told me about the side effects of merging with the Void. ”
"I was really desperate at first, but after that, I got used to it...... If I don't, I'll either have to flee the town, or I'll have to stay and die. I could run away, but I didn't want to do it, because I didn't want to live in condemnation of conscience. The boss said, a determined look in his eyes.
After listening to it, I secretly sighed at the injustice of the world, why do good people have no good ends. When the feng shui master first came, he probably didn't know that this was a ghost mound, and he was just trying to earn some money to support his family in his profession. But now it has ended up like this......
