Chapter 22: The Worm of Time (7)

Below, somewhere in the guest room of the Hot Springs Lodge.

As if after a long, lucid nightmare, Zhao Chensi slammed into the bed and sat up, gasping for breath and greedily ingesting oxygen, like a newborn breathing the air of this world with his lungs for the first time.

Before he could speak, Shi Yu's somewhat low voice echoed in his ears: Are you awake? We just experienced another death.

Well, I was careless. The memory before death flashed back in his mind, Zhao Chensi took a few deep breaths to stabilize the strong palpitations, turned over and jumped off the bed, walked quickly to the table, and subconsciously touched the close pocket on his chest to get the piece of paper that had recorded the information before.

But the fitted pockets are naturally empty.

Because of the time backtracking, the words he wrote, the injuries he suffered, the deaths he endured, and the efforts he made were all written off.

And, as he expected, this return to death was not without a price.

If so, this time he could clearly feel that he had lost something because of time rewinding.

He looked down at the palm of his hand, where a small patch of skin had quietly peeled off and turned into a gray mist.

But this loss was also expected by Zhao Chensi.

Among the undead, according to the secret method of the undead used, there are also advantages and disadvantages between the undead. The most orthodox immortals like Wang Mang and Xuanjun Daoren, they are the most perfect existence among the undead, and they are also the first immortals to appear in the transcendent realm, there are almost no effective means to kill such undead, they will only be worn out of self and emotions in a long life and countless deaths, and finally become a walking corpse whose spirit is dead, but whose body is still alive. Fun Cabinet

In addition to this kind of orthodox immortal, in various eras of human history, there are still many secret methods and evil methods that lament limited life and challenge immortality and immortality, which are basically immortal with strong side effects.

He had seen countless dust particles in the Immortal Village where the flesh collapsed and the soul was blended together, the undead insects that quietly replaced the consciousness of others, the hypocritical immortality that gnawed at the essence of the flesh and blood of the undead recorded in the Xuanjun Eternal Travel Sutra, and the secret method of stealing life mentioned by Wang Mang, and the time stealer he met now.

These immortal secret methods each have their own advantages and disadvantages, the ashes of immortality thirst for fresh flesh, and they will always endure the painful torture of their bodies being torn into dust and unable to aggregate &ash;&ash; Zhao Chensi also knows very well that one day he will also turn into a pile of gray mist that cannot aggregate his body. It wasn't his quest to taste the pain of eternal life, so he would cut himself off with immortality before he completely turned into a gray mist that could not be killed.

But before that day comes, he has two more things to accomplish.

First, take revenge on Qin Mian, the culprit who caused all this, and second, find a way to save Shiyu on the subsequent journey.

What's wrong? So silent all of a sudden? Seeing that he was sitting at the table and didn't start writing for a long time, Shi Yu's puzzled voice sounded in his ears.

Since there is more than one enemy, it is necessary to act more carefully. Zhao Chensi shook his head vigorously, shook these chaotic thoughts that hindered his thinking out of his head, and while writing his name on the paper with a pen, he said in a nutshell: Wait and see what happens before changing and then find an opportunity to kill the killer's plan, in the case of the enemy and I am outnumbered, it is not wise to only sneak attack the bait on the surface, but it will expose our advantage of being in the dark

So the question now is where to start?

This is no longer a problem, in the last samsara I forcibly wrote down those who were sacrificed, and they should be safe as sacrifices

Zhao Chensi stopped his pen as he spoke, and the paper was also full of dense words.

This is a list of security personnel, not temporarily listed as an imaginary enemy as a sacrifice, take precautions, if necessary

In the hall of the Hot Spring Villa, a middle-aged employee dressed as a cleaner suddenly stopped cleaning the floor with a mop, stopped in place, frowned and pondered.

If Zhao Chensi was here, he would naturally recognize this middle-aged man at a glance as standing in the last reincarnation

The time-stealer who presided over the ceremony in the center of the hall and was then stabbed to death by him in the back.

How did it stop? Seeing that he stopped, the reception lady who had been sitting at the front desk left her seat and walked over: It's time to start the ceremony, everyone else in the villa is ready, and there is no problem with the food in the kitchen, and now it's time for the preparations on our side, if you don't hurry up and prepare, it will be too late.

Apparently she was also a member of the group of time-stealers, and judging by her words, it seemed that not only her, but the entire Hot Springs Resort had their people distributed.

I always felt a strange sense of familiarity, and the middle-aged thief dressed as a cleaner shook his head, but he suddenly felt that the drawing of this magic array seemed to have been done many times unconsciously, so familiar that I felt that I could know how to draw it next without drawings

When the front desk received the dressed female thief, she thought for a while and said: The one you said is called D&eue;jàvu, right?

What do you get? The middle-aged thief felt that his tongue was almost knotted, and he couldn't pronounce the word the other person said correctly.

Déjà vu probably refers to the state you are in now, with a sense of familiarity with things you have not experienced or are experiencing, as if you have experienced them somewhere. She explained nonchalantly, but I think it should be your delusion, after all, you've practiced the magic circle drawing method countless times for this day, right? It should be normal to feel familiar

Is that so? The middle-aged thief was still a little skeptical, but he couldn't come up with any strong evidence to refute it, so he could only focus on his work: forget it, let's finish the little thing at hand first

The female thief watched him continue to draw a magic circle with invisible paint that ordinary people couldn't see, and unconsciously asked: What if, I mean, what if, those people are not willing to cooperate with us?

If you don't cooperate, kill a few middle-aged time-stealers from Liwei Bar while drawing the magic array with a mop, and said indifferently, anyway, as long as you ensure that the number of participants is within the minimum number requirement.

Eh, killing people is not good, right? Hearing such a brutal speech, the female thief hesitated a little, we are not here to kill

These are all necessary sacrifices for greater salvation, you are still a newcomer, and when you have seen a lot, you should understand, sometimes you will face a situation where you have to put the value of life on the scales

At that time, you have to choose what to save or what to give up, although not making a choice is a choice, but that will only make it impossible for everyone to live

There wasn't much work left, and it was quickly completed while the middle-aged thief was babbling about imparting life lessons.

All right! That's the last one! The middle-aged time thief muttered, and after finally scribbling the final stroke of the magic array on the ground, he put his cleaning tools into the small cart, turned his head and said goodbye to her: I will go back to rest first, recuperate, and preside over the ceremony later, then the rest will be left to you

Good! Leave it to me!

The middle-aged thief pushed a small cart out of the elevator, thinking about the next ritual plan as he pushed the cart in the hallway in the direction of the rest room where the cleaners stacked their belongings.

Poof!

Like the soft sound of a cloth splitting, the long crimson sword entwined with ominous blood tore through flesh, pierced his heart, pierced his chest, and nearly pierced him.

The middle-aged time thief's eyes widened in disbelief, he never thought of why he was attacked at this time, and what he didn't expect was that the time he had stored was actually unable to heal the penetrated wound, and after the treatment was ineffective, he subconsciously wanted to fight back, but the ensuing huge force from the sword shattered the heart he relied on for survival, and also took away his last resistance.

Different from the last time, if the previous immortal slash relied on passive skills to kill the undead, then this time the immortal slash was attached to the extraordinary power that continued to spread like poison, obviously Zhao Chensi took the initiative to unlock part of the seal on the sword, and these extraordinary powers dedicated to killing the undead flowed to the limbs and bones of the middle-aged thief in an instant, making his body quickly fall into withering and paralysis, and his body was successful in just a few seconds

Patches of cells apoptosis, blood oozing from the pores, and the skin ulcerating and draining pus.

But the smell of blood did not escape, in order to ambush him, Zhao Chensi had already set up an enchantment, whether it was the sound or the smell of blood, it was impossible to escape, no matter how loud the movement above was, unless the enchantment was broken, no one would generally know what was going on here.

Only at this time, he didn't notice that a petite transparent device seemed to swim through the air.

Zhao Chensi suppressed the middle-aged thief with immortal slashing death, and only after he stopped struggling and moving, and turned into a bloody corpse, did he draw the sword from his back: Solve one first.

Didn't you say you were going to change your strategy before? Shi Yu's doubts sounded in her ears, and as a shared sense, she naturally heard it, killing one of him, and a whole group hiding in the villa, if you don't catch them all, I'm afraid things won't end so simply.

I have a way to do this. Zhao Chensi dragged the middle-aged time thief who had died of breath into the cleaner's rest cubicle, and found a clean cleaner's outfit from inside.

After more than an hour, a man who was dressed up, looked and even looked exactly like the previous cleaner walked out of the rest room, pushed a small cart full of cleaning tools, and returned to the hall with brisk steps
