"Ah, how to manipulate a living person as a puppet?" I asked in surprise.

"It is said that it is a secret magic in the Western Regions, using live dolls as weapons, which is quite cruel, but I have only heard of it, and I have not seen it with my own eyes." Rui Wei said.

I disagreed, saying, "It's not unusual, if it's cruel to plant one's own thoughts in other people's minds, then this kind of cruelty is actually something we do every day." ”

"No," she explained, "it's not the kind of conceptual manipulation you say. I heard that they selected some people, and since childhood, they have used drugs and spells to destroy their will, making them become living puppets, and then let other specially trained people control these living puppets through their will, living puppets can act like normal people, and there are almost no flaws on the appearance, but he does not have the emotional reactions of normal people, he will not be afraid, will not escape, and completely obey the command, which can be said to be the most perfect weapon. The human mind is inherently powerful, and they just have a way to make it transcend the boundaries of the human body. ”

"Ahh I was quite surprised, "That's too godly, isn't it?" If you use this method to control your own army, won't it be a problem to conquer the whole world! Aren't those people bragging? ”

"It's not bragging......," said Rui Wei, "my father once saw that the living puppet had its arms cut off by the enemy, and it was covered in bruises, but it still moved without changing its face, and finally its head was cut off, and finally it collapsed, and the blood was almost dry...... That's a living person, it's disgusting to think about. ”

"Really? So what exactly can be done to destroy the will of others and replace it? You must know that the power of will is very strong, let alone let others destroy it, and it is difficult to disappear some thoughts yourself. I said.

"Then who knows, I haven't been to the Western Regions." She pouted.

"It's so powerful, I really want to see it if I have a chance!" I laughed.

"Inhumane, you ......," she said, glaring at me.

"Who said that, I know what happened to save them, this is called mercy, do you know?" I'm struggling......

I didn't take this discussion seriously. But this unresolved memory popped up when I saw the remaining silver needle on the monk's arm, and at first I really just suspected that he was too strong and well-trained to probably feel any pain, until I saw the pain on his face later, and I was convinced that it was not.

Normal people generally have two reactions after eating pain, the first is to soothe, which will remove the cause of the pain as soon as possible, and will also soothe the wound; The second is avoidance, that is, the injured part will be protected in the next time to prevent it from being injured again.

In this process, only the dodge done at the moment of pain is a natural reaction of the human body, not controlled by the brain, for example, if you put your hand on the fire, even if you don't deliberately dodge, your hand will naturally bounce away. But then blowing, kneading, and avoiding further stimulation and injury to the wound must be controlled by one's own will.

And the person in front of him can fight and dodge, but he doesn't even do small actions that don't take too much time, such as pulling out the needle, why? This prompted me to make a bold assumption: it was because he had lost the ability to dominate his body!

With this assumption, I asked Granny Hua and Bai Jue to deliberately use some tricks that are not too lethal, but will have obvious pain to hit each other, such as Bai Jue's silver needle attack, and Granny Hua's "pouring sulfuric acid", to see if the other party will obviously appease or pay attention to the performance of special avoidance next time after eating pain. Sure enough, only Granny Hua's opponent reacted like this, and there is no doubt that he is the soul of these three people, the "real body" in the phantom!

I squatted down and looked at my opponent just now, the stupid big man who was sitting on the ground stupidly, and reached out and pulled the silver needles off his arms one by one, he really frowned slightly, but he didn't move, he didn't speak, it was really like a clay fetus and a wood plastic.

It seems that what Rui Wei said is true, such an unthinkable thing as destroying the will of others can really be done!

For a while, I was a little emotional: in fact, what is there to doubt? Isn't my consciousness also occupying Tao Zhihuan's body right now? And I've not only crossed the distance, but I haven't been able to stop even thousands of years!

Thinking of this layer, I suddenly had a new thought: Is it possible that this will transcends time and space? Could this Western Regions evil art have anything to do with the secrets of the Blood Rock Furnace? ……

Immediately perked up, gently patted the cheek of the "real body" monk who had fainted, and shouted: "Hey, wake up!" Wake up! ……”

"What are you waking him up for?" Bai Jue asked strangely.

"I have something to ask him." I saw that he didn't respond, so I stretched out my thumb and pressed it the others, and he really frowned and woke up. As soon as he woke up, he glared at me and struggled and yelled, "Let go of me!" ”

"You're not a good man," I said with a grin, "and you're all our losers anyway, so it's only natural to kill you." Now I still have your little life, I don't know how grateful and angry, what is the reason? ”

He was twisting desperately, twisting the hemp rope and squeaking, but when he heard me say this, he suddenly stopped, but there was still hostility in his eyes, and he asked in a rough voice: "What do you want?" ”

I stared at him gravely for a long time, and then asked, "What's your name?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Bai Jue next to him shook his body, as if he almost fell to the ground. The monk in front of him was also surprised, but when he saw that my face was full of seriousness with a capital letter, he had to reply, "Luo Bulqin." ”

That's it, all three of them have this kind of name, long and irregular, so I can't remember it at all.

"Oh, then I'll call you Rob." I'll be serious.

Turnips, it's still easy to remember!

Without waiting for him to object, I already continued: "Rob, listen, although we are rivals in this competition, but in the end, we have no grudge against you, there is no need to kill you for a competition, just now you wanted to rob our things, but there is still no killer, I also see it." Instead of being an enemy, it is better to be friends, as long as you promise not to fight with us again, I will let you and your two brothers go, how about it? ”

He was a little surprised when he heard this, a hesitant look appeared on his face, and he bowed his head and said nothing.

"I don't know what you want to participate in this competition, but since you are a Buddhist person, it will definitely not be as simple as asking for money and officials, I promise you, even if your brother wins, I will definitely try my best to help you, okay?" I say this sincerely.

He stared at me with wide eyes, then turned to look at his two companions, and asked, "Really?" ”

"Yes, the manly man has a word, and the horse is difficult to chase." I patted my chest and said.

He thought for a moment, sighed, and nodded.

I immediately stretched out my hand and untied the rope on his body, and when I saw Bai Jue stunned on the side, I shouted, "Why are you standing stupidly?" Help! ”

Three times five divided by two, the three monks regained their freedom, Rob stood up first, walked in front of his two companions, and formed a swastika array, and then, the two also stood up, moving freely, no different from ordinary people, we were dumbfounded!

Seeing that I had really fulfilled my promise, Rob asked me with a solemn face: "The three of us are the strongest warriors in the temple, and we were defeated by you so easily, who are you?" "He was more than a head taller than me, and when I was close to talking, I could barely look up at him, and I felt my neck tired.

I found that the more rough a person is, the more pure his mind is, as long as you are honest with him, he will often respond with his heart.

I smiled faintly and said, "It's nothing special, it's just an ordinary layman." ”

"He's just a gangster." Bai Jue said on the side.

"You're not a gangster? Forgot to throw needles at someone's body? I shot back unceremoniously.

When Bai Jue heard this, he said with a look of indignation: "That's not at your command!" ”

"I ......" I just wanted to speak as fast as I could, but Granny Hua had already said on the side: "If you rub it again, the sky will be dawn." ”

I looked to the east, and sure enough, it was already white, and the sky was about to dawn!

At that time, I thought of another question, and turned my head to ask Bai Jue and Luo Budao, "What are you going to do?" Go back to the palace together? Or ......"

The intention of my question lies in the old eunuch's previous sentence "the loser dies". To be honest, when I heard that the game was going to be held outside the palace, I thought about it, if you let people out like this, you will definitely run away if you fail, who will wait for you to deal with it!

Unexpectedly, the two of them replied in unison: "Go back together!" ”

Integrity and compliance, do not admit cowardice at critical moments, this is the real man! I gave a thumbs up to the two of them, and a group of six people walked towards the Nangong Gate together.

While walking, there is one more thing in my heart that I can't let go, that is, I haven't seen Ling Yunyan's shadow all the time, where did she go? She was so desperate to get rid of the others, did she give up so easily? It's not quite like her character!

Seeing that the palace gate was not far ahead, and the sky was about to dawn, although victory was in sight, I don't know why, but I felt a faint uneasiness in my heart, as if something was wrong, but no matter how I sorted out the events that happened this night, I couldn't analyze what was wrong.

Finally, when the morning sun gave its first warm rays, we were already standing in front of the palace gate. I haven't slept all night, but my heart is excited and excited, and I don't feel sleepy at all!

To be honest, I first came to participate in this competition just to find an opportunity to meet the emperor so that I could carry out my next plan. But once I was in it, the fierce battles around me invisibly ignited my fighting spirit, and I began to slowly care about and look forward to this game!

Just as he was sighing, the palace door suddenly opened, and the old eunuch walked out with his little attendants.

I hurriedly greeted him, and just as I was about to speak, the old eunuch had already spoken first, and as soon as the words came out, all six people, including me, were taken aback, and they were stunned on the spot!

He said: "It's been half a day since the game ended, why did you come back?" ”
