Chapter 427: Suspicions
From the moment I saw the fire, I knew it was over. The tragedy has been repeated.
Or it's a coincidence, or it's providence. If there doesn't happen to be a fox here that wants to hunt, there happens to be no ghost who wants to support a family. I won't be taken into this village by him.
But now that I'm here, I'm afraid I'll never be able to leave again.
Once the formation was activated, it immediately put a lot of pressure on me. I had no choice but to sit down. Begin to compete with the formation.
The Jizo King outside the formation also appeared. He asked me aloud, "Where the hell is that place?" β
I gritted my teeth and replied, "I don't know." β
We fought from night to morning, and from morning to evening. Finally, the two of us fell to the ground.
I feel like my internal organs are rotten. There is no place in the body that does not hurt. My eyes can't see anything anymore. I lay in the dark. It was as if someone had abolished the Dao technique, and there was no shadow of it.
Then, I felt someone pull me out of my pain. It was like a pair of chopsticks that pulled me out of the hot water.
When I opened my eyes, I saw that these chopsticks were Wushuang.
She looked at me condescendingly and patted my head with her hand: "Xu You, how are you?" β
I got up and felt a pain all over my body: "I'm fine......"
The ghost envoy said next to him, "Is it really okay?" You've been shouting and screaming in the house for more than two hours, aren't you tired? β
I smiled wryly and thought to myself, "What are these two hours?" I've been running in memory for almost two weeks now. β
I asked Wushuang, "What happened to those paper figures?" β
Musou sat cross-legged on the ground, soul rings fluttering in front of her. Shine with the same brilliance. She said, "I'm going to wake you up to tell you about it." You guessed it right, the two souls inside are indeed our acquaintances. However, the two of them have not fully recovered and cannot speak yet. β
I was overjoyed and asked, "Who is it?" β
Wushuang said: "It's a thin man and a sloppy Taoist. β
I was a little surprised: "Why are they two?" I thought it was paper. However, it is a good thing that they can come back. β
Wushuang looked at the soul lock ring floating in mid-air and said, "I think it's a little strange. At that time, the genius was so powerful that all the people within a radius of a few miles died, not only dead, but also scattered. How did the two of them escape? β
I nodded: "It's really weird. However, when the two of them come to their senses, let's ask carefully, and it should be easy to ask. β
Wushuang snorted. After a while, he asked me, "How do you remember?" Did you find out the big secret? β
I nodded, "Almost, I've pretty much figured out what's going on." β
Wushuang looked back at me in surprise and said, "Tell me quickly, what's going on?" β
I went through what I saw. Wushuang and the Oni Envoy were almost stunned when they listened.
Seeing that the two of them didn't speak, I said, "So, it's not too bad. If my memory is not wrong. The secret was erased forever by the woman. No one knows where it is. Neither I nor the King of Jizo know. β
Wushuang looked at me and said, "Xu You, I think you're in danger." β
I saw that her face was a little pale, and I said nervously, "Why? How am I in danger? β
Wushuang continued: "In his previous life, King Jizo thought you knew the clues, so he chased after you. Now, both of you have regained your memories. Isn't the evil thoughts of the King of Jizo still thinking that they are secret from you? β
I suddenly felt a pain in my eggs: "So, he still has to come to me?" It's been thousands of years, and I really can't escape? β
Wushuang nodded: "I guess so." Moreover, you simply can't explain it. He wouldn't believe it. β
I went limp and collapsed on the couch: "So what are we going to do?" β
Wushuang sighed and said, "What can be done now?" Or, you make up a place to send him. However, in this way, you will have no use value, and he will kill people even more. Another way is that you run away like you did thousands of years ago. However, your current strength is too much worse than his, and it is estimated that you will be caught halfway through. β
I said helplessly: "So, I'm dead?" β
Wushuang thought for a while and said, "The two of us together should be able to block him." The current method can only be delayed for one day. The Bodhisattva of the Emperor of the Land healed his wounds, and then worked together to take down the evil thoughts. β
I circled around the room: "If the Jizo King and I have the same memory." In that case, he should have remembered it by now, right? Didn't you say there was a month? It's also too fast. β
Wushuang didn't speak again, but looked at the soul lock ring in front of him with full attention. After a few minutes, I heard a soft sound. Wushuang's upper body leaned back, lying on the floor dejectedly.
I ran over and asked, "How's it going?" β
Wushuang closed his eyes and looked exhausted: "Okay." The two of them came back to life. β
At this time, I saw two figures floating out of the soul ring. Who is not a thin man and a sloppy Taoist?
The two of them giggled at us. Then he sat down on the couch very casually.
I think the spirits of the two of them are still very weak. However, it should be no big deal.
I asked the two of them, "How did you survive?" β
The sloppy Taoist priest's voice was very small, but the weak voice couldn't hide the smugness: "How did you come back to life?" Not on me yet? At the critical moment, he struggled to block the Wizards. This bought the thin man a little time. β
The thin man leaned back on the couch, closed his eyes and said, "Pure nonsense." If you hadn't supported me back then, would I have been forced to die by the wizards? β
The thin man and the sloppy Taoist priest did not give in to each other. Compete to take the credit for yourself.
But I frowned at what I heard. Sloppy Taoist priests are shameless. If he had said that he had escaped first and had picked up a life, I would still have believed it. But now he is taking the initiative to fight for merit, this is not his character.
Besides, the thin man has always been old and deep, why did he suddenly get mixed up with the sloppy Taoist priest and argue about this? Their words gave me an impression. That is, none of them are telling the truth. What are they hiding.
I put this question straight to the point. Neither of them spoke again. They changed their faces and said solemnly: "Xu You, you can't doubt us. It's so hurtful......"
I didn't expect them to admit it, either. I waved my hand and asked, "What happened later?" What happened next? β
The thin man said, "When the wizards are in power." Both of our souls were scattered by the beating. There was a maelstrom that was going to suck the soul fragments of the two of us into it. Fortunately, the two of us are cultivators, and we escaped with our lives. Then they float along the way, clinging to the murky river, or under the trees. I don't know how long I hid, but I slowly eased up. But when the soul is broken, it is broken, and we have never been able to restore the soul. One day, we saw someone nearby tying paper people, so our brothers and I attached itβ€ so we had a place to live. β
"We want to find you. But when the soul is dispersed, the strength is too weak. And staying in the paper man, although you can protect yourself, but you can't act like a normal person at all, there is no way, we have to let people write your birthday on the body. Your birth date guides us around and find your place. In this way, relying on the weak strength of the soul, our brothers and I finally returned. β
Hearing this, I sneered again and again. Wushuang stood up boredly, and when he passed by me, he whispered, "This thin guy can't even lie." β
I nodded: "That's right, the thin man has too many doubts." After being scattered by the wizards, can you escape? I'm afraid I can't even do that. And write my birth date on the paper figure to find me? I've never heard of this approach. β
But suspicion is suspicion, this time I didn't debunk the thin man. On the one hand, it is true to him. As soon as the two of them came back, I kept questioning, and it was inevitable that I would be suspected of being unkind. On the other hand, I would like to know what the purpose of their lies is. And, how the hell did we survive.
