"My ...... Kindness? When I heard this, I thought that the purple ghost must be joking, because how could such a thing be taken out for exchange? Kindness is something in a person's nature, can it be said that you can take it away?

"I don't quite understand, can I take out my goodness? Or after I became stronger. Is he no longer a good person? I hurriedly asked.

The purple ghost nodded and said, "The stronger a person's ability, the stronger his desire will become, and the greater his temper will become...... In short, as the ability changes, the person's temperament will change, which is an inevitable thing, so are you ready? ”

I thought about it, in that moment. To be honest, the idea of becoming stronger has grown ingrained in me. I didn't even have time to think carefully about what the purple ghost meant by the price of becoming stronger, and what did I mean by losing my kindness, the only thing I thought of was to be able to become a man that Rujun could rely on in the future, but to protect Rujun, to protect the old cat and rhubarb, instead of hiding under their protection all the time like now, so cowardly, so useless.

"I'm ready, if I can, please make me stronger." I said in a low and firm voice.

"Very well, I really didn't see the wrong person, you know. The thing you get now is something that countless people in the underworld under our Sijiu City are constantly looking for, and this thing is very precious. So you must not tell anyone that it is in your hands. "The purple ghost looked a little verbose, and I saw him pull a silver object out of his bosom.

It was a small, but delicate silver skull. It was the size of a walnut, glowing in the dim room, but perhaps because of the dim yellow color of the lantern in my hand, I now looked like the skull was golden.

Anyway, it must be metallic, because that shine doesn't fool me.

The purple ghost stretched out his slender fingers. Press firmly on the left and right sides of the skull. At this moment, only to hear the sound of "click", the skull suddenly opened its mouth.

As the skull's mouth opened, a slender metal tongue slowly protruded from it. It turned out to be a very delicate and small mechanism, which was really mysterious.

And on this metallic tongue, hooked a very small thing, this thing looks a bit like a mulberry, the surface is not flat, and the whole thing exudes an eerie light.

When I saw this thing, the first thing I thought of was the seed of the gourd that the pangolin brought out to my grandfather in the cartoon gourd baby I watched when I was a child, is this also a magical seed?

The purple ghost didn't say much to me, just handed me the skull and said, "See this?" Pick it up. ”

I didn't disobey his instructions, and quickly picked up the mulberry-like thing that was hooked on the tongue of the skull.

The purple ghost continued, "Eat it. ”

I looked at the mulberry in my hand, and then at the white eyes of the purple ghost, a little hesitant.

Chinese have two old sayings, disaster comes from the mouth, disaster comes from the mouth, and Chinese have a lot of taboos and particularities about eating and talking.

Although the purple ghost had told me a lot just now, when I knew that he was going to let me eat, I instinctively repulsed it.

Because I was thinking in my heart, this thing, can't it be poisonous?

The purple ghost glanced at me and said with a smile, "What? Scared? ”

I nodded, I didn't lie to him, in fact, until now, I also know that the strength between me and this purple ghost is too different, and for a ghost who has lived for at least six or seven hundred years, even if a kid like me is a genius, he is just a fledgling little guy, so I don't have any intention of intrigating with him, everything is one and two.

"Don't worry, I won't kill you, let alone use you, I want to kill you, use you, there are a thousand ways and means, there is no need to give you something that everyone in the underworld has coveted for a long time, eat it with confidence, in this way, you will become a new you." The purple ghost whispered, his tone sincere, not like he was faking.

"Of course, if you don't want to eat it, I won't force you, I will take this thing back, and then I will let Mr. Niu take you away." The purple ghost whispered.

I nodded and said, "In that case, I'll eat it anyway." I want to believe you. "Because I think he's right, he really doesn't need to be clever for a role like mine.

With that, I picked up the strange, glowing mulberry-like fruit from the skull's tongue, and the little thing was very cold in my hand, like a block of ice.

Then I put him in my mouth and swallowed it without hesitation.

The cold sensation poured from my throat all the way to my stomach, catching me off guard.

I exhaled quickly, and then felt my whole body tremble.

But it was just a tremor, and after that, I didn't feel anything.

And that's the end of it? Am I just getting stronger?

I looked at the purple ghost, and then at other places, and realized that my body had not changed significantly, and I was probably still the same person I used to be. Mouthful of craftsman's blood.

"What? In a hurry? The purple ghost gently put away the metal skull that he had nothing left in his hand, and said: "Don't worry, although you will become stronger in a short time, but it will not be immediately effective, remember, the stronger your ability, the greater the responsibility, and from now on, you will go through a lot of training to become stronger, what you eat is a seed, and now is the time for it to start germinating." ”

After the purple ghost finished speaking, he suddenly stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers: "Mr. Niu, I'm sorry for you." ”

Almost instantly, Mr. Niu appeared at the door, he pushed the door open, and walked in slowly, his head down, not daring to look at the purple ghost, nor to look at me.

"Please take him out, thank you." The purple ghost whispered, this sentence was polite, but there was a hint of arrogance in the tone.

Mr. Niu hurriedly led me out of the room, and until I left, Mr. Niu didn't say a word.

I tried to turn around and say goodbye to the purple ghost, but by the time I did, the room was empty.

When I got out of the room, I asked in a low voice, "Mr. Niu, who was that person just now......"

"Don't talk, just go." Mr. Niu said in a low voice, I just remembered my previous instructions, let me not talk nonsense, because I am still a living person, as long as I speak, then my identity will be exposed.

I followed Mr. Niu out, and after walking for about forty minutes, we came to a strange platform.

The platform was rudimentary, a bit like an old-fashioned train station from a few decades ago, with a sign on it, but I didn't recognize the font on the sign.

Mr. Niu looked into the distance, then at his vintage watch, and said, "Wait, it should be coming soon." ”

I was about to ask what was coming, but after a while, I saw a light in the distance, and it turned out to be a subway train coming in my direction.

Mr. Niu said in a low voice: "Take this train, the next stop is Xizhimen, Wu Min should have taken your friends there to wait for you, remember, no matter what they ask, don't tell them that you saw me and the purple ghost in the dungeon, you just said that it was the little rabbit who took you all along, and then got on the car and went back, you know?" ”

I didn't dare to speak easily, so I nodded quickly, it seemed that the identity of that purple ghost was too mysterious.

Then the train came into the station, it was still a red train, and I could almost feel that the train had just rushed up from a pool full of blood.

When I arrived at the station, the door opened, and I nodded to Mr. Niu and walked onto the train with the lantern.

At the moment when the train closed, my body suddenly shook, and I felt a tearing sensation in my internal organs!
