Chapter 90: A dilemma
I was stunned. This is www.biquge.info the first time that "non-humans" have communicated with me, but the demand is for me to eliminate them.
"Isn't there any other way?"
The psychic belt said: "If there is, there is no need to work on your master, and please do it quickly, because soon, we will lose our consciousness and control." ”
In order to keep me informed of the situation, they briefly told me what had happened. However, the strange way of "telling" is different from humans, they don't need words, and the things they want me to understand appear in my mind like movie screens.
It all started on the night of the blood moon.
The pentagonal maple in the courtyard has lived with this family for more than 300 years, and since the ancestors of this family had kept this tree under the knife and axe of others, they have been fertilizing and irrigating this pentagonal maple and taking good care of it. During the New Year's holidays, tea and wine are sometimes spilled under the tree, just like a family member.
Gradually, the spirit of the tree began to turn into this strange thing called the "psychic belt", which has blessed the family for generations.
But as time passed, the tree also began to feel lonely, because the number of people left in this place became less and less.
Originally, the family was full of laughter every day, and some people even felt the shade of the giant tree, deliberately touched the trunk, and whispered gratefully: "I always feel that it is thanks to you that there will be so much luck!" "It's a nostalgic time, but after all, time is gone.
As the world becomes more noisy and colorful, more and more people leave their small dwellings and run to a wider world, and they never return. It is said that it is the hometown, and it is said that the leaves fall back to the roots, but in the busyness, I can't even find the time to look back, and it will be ten or twenty years in the blink of an eye.
Now in the family, there is only a grandfather who has lost his wife and a little granddaughter who is only five or six years old. Other family members, including the little girl's parents, are working hard in a distant metropolis in search of a better life.
The little girl often sits alone at the window and looks into the distance, and sometimes, the psychic strap will feel that this little guy is very pitiful.
The feeling of loneliness and loneliness probably no one understands better than a tree.
The psychic belt thought, at least, that he could protect the two people who were still here.
But from that night on, everything changed.
That night, the demons danced, and almost all parts of the city were affected.
The pentagonal maple, which has been fortunate to survive for so many years on the edge of the city, was favored by a certain big demon who appeared in the world at the first time due to the abundant essence of heaven and earth absorbed for thousands of years. However, since the demon was attacked by the zombies as soon as it appeared, and was seriously injured and forced to flee the city, it was not possible to take the tree for himself immediately. When this big demon was leaving, he cast a magic spell and put a dark black mark on the root of the pentagonal maple.
In this seal, the evil demon power of the great demon is enclosed. Although the pentagonal maple has existed for nearly a thousand years, it is a low-level existence that has not even cultivated as a demon, and it is completely unable to resist the effects of demonic arts. Therefore, the strange "psychic band" formed by the maple tree was gradually eroded by the dark power, lost its self-control, distorted its form, and became an evil existence that sucked the host's essence and slowly killed the host.
This is something they absolutely don't want to see, but their strength is low, and they can't get out of the control of the evil power of the big demon at all. The purpose of the Great Demon leaving a mark is to let them kill the host first, and then slowly transform into a part of the dark power, waiting for the Great Demon to return to the power to receive it.
"We've struggled a few times, but it's not something our power can do, and we can't even destroy our own bodies. At this time, someone told us that Lord Lu Shining, who lives in this city, can destroy us and free us. Therefore, we used all our strength to successfully invade Lord Lu Shining's dream. Although it is very presumptuous, I still hope that Lord Lu Shining will not mind and can realize our wishes. ”
I couldn't help but sigh and feel grateful to the mysterious person inside me.
What the eye sees is not necessarily true. These two monsters, their bodies belong to darkness, and they can't even control their actions at all, but their hearts are not.
This is the first time I've seen Blame willing to sacrifice his life for the sake of humanity.
Anything can happen.
"Is there any way to save those two people and save the life of the psychic belt?" I asked the mysterious man inside.
He was silent most of the time, but I believe he was listening.
The silence lasted for a few seconds, as if it were a thought process, and finally, he replied, "Likely, no." ”
"No?!" I felt a little incredible. I thought he was omniscient and omnipotent, and nothing could help him, but he didn't know the answer to that question either.
"The erosion is so deep that it's impossible to get back to where they were." The mysterious man said, "Only their consciousness is clear now, but it won't be long before they will not even have their own consciousness, they will be devoured by the demon, become a part of the demon, and fall into darkness from then on." ”
Obviously, this big demon who controlled the psychic belt was completely different from Liqing, he didn't care about the life or death of human beings at all, nor did he care about the life or death of these monsters.
"So what should I do?" I suddenly realized the magnitude of the task. These two monsters had pulled me here by means of a dream, and made this embarrassing request to me, and I would probably have to make the right decision on my own.
The right decisions are often painful.
"Lord Lu Shining, please don't feel embarrassed. It's all our own willingness, and we hope it doesn't bother you. ”
The other monster also seemed to sigh in a low voice: "Lord Lu Shining is really as soft-hearted as rumored......
Is it soft-hearted? I feel that it is not a question of soft-heartedness or not. It is difficult for any normal person to know all this, and it is better to know nothing.
It seems that sometimes knowing the truth is not necessarily a pleasant thing.
My heart was shocked.
"Who is it...... Let you come to me? ”
They did say that they were told that I had the power to get rid of them. So who is this person? How will you know me? Why are you looking for me? Couldn't he solve all this?
As soon as I asked this question, the answer to the question automatically appeared in my mind in the form of a picture.
In that image, I was surprised to see an unexpectedly familiar person.
