Chapter 5: Ghost City and Ghost Difference
Li Tai'an knelt on the ground, gasping for air.
This is already the sixth cycle.
Although the physical strength will be restored with each cycle, the damage received during the cycle is gradually accumulating.
If this cycle continues, Li Tai'an will be consumed alive.
But just as the seventh cycle was about to begin, Li Tai'an slowly stood up.
"I admit that this illusion is indeed very clever, and even made me think that it was the cry that brought me into the illusion."
"But after six cycles, I already know which sleep brought about this illusion."
As soon as he finished speaking, a breeze hit again.
The candle goes out again.
This time, Li Tai'an did not resist, he quickly retreated, stepping on the waterhole behind him.
When I looked down, I saw the familiar blood all over the ground again.
Looking up, four coffins reappeared, and four corpses began to struggle to appear.
"What really brought me into the illusion was not the so-called hearing, but the perception! That is, my subconscious! โ
Li Tai'an faced the four people who rushed over in the darkness, and this time he no longer dodged, but continued: "The first cycle, starting with a cry, followed by a breeze, candles, pools, bloodstains, coffins, corpses. โ
"Through the subsequent series of episodes, this fantasy that has been circulating is constituted."
"And when I realized it was an illusion and resisted for the first time, the cry appeared again, as if to strengthen the illusion's control over me."
"But it's also a design, designed to make me think that the illusion is maintained by crying, which is the hearing of the six senses."
"So, in the next few cycles, turning off my hearing didn't do anything, and the illusion was still there."
"Because, this is not an illusion maintained by hearing at all!"
As soon as Li Tai'an finished speaking, the four people who had already rushed in front of him stopped.
Then, they flew towards the coffin at a faster speed.
"And the formation of the real illusion is my subconscious that has been strengthened over and over again!"
"When the breeze blows, the candle will be extinguished; After that, I will definitely make a move, and whether I step backwards or whatever, I will definitely step on a waterhole, and blood will come out all over the ground, and finally there will be coffins and corpses. โ
"And every time I want to resist, the cry that has already appeared will appear again, not to strengthen the illusion, but to strengthen my subconscious, the cry will maintain the illusion, and the illusion is caused by the cry!"
"This series of things, as long as I am more and more profound in my subconscious, the illusion will become more and more solid, and when I am still eliminating the illusion by canceling the sense of hearing over and over again, the illusion formed by the subconscious will also become more and more solid."
"So, if you want to break this illusion, you have to cancel all the thoughts in my subconscious mind first!"
Li Tai'an looked at everything in front of him with a firm gaze.
Coffins, candles, breezes, bloodstains, pools.
At this moment, all slowly dissipated, and he appeared in the compound of Yizhuang again.
The tengu has already revealed his true form, and is fighting with the four people in the Phantom Realm.
"You're finally out!"
Tengu looked at Li Tai'an, who was suddenly gasping for breath, and the three flames on his body began to slowly recover.
"I got into a fantasy, and now I should be fine!" Li Tai'an finally lay directly on the ground, although the illusion has been eliminated, but the damage to Li Tai'an's soul has been left, which is more terrifying than the physical trauma.
At this time, a wisp of white smoke slowly floated out from Li Tai'an's ears, and just now he used the strength of the Heavenly Master to eliminate all the subconscious in his mind.
Looking at the tengu who had recovered his true body, Li Tai'an wanted to help, but there was no way to help.
"There's still a wisp of Heavenly Master strength, I'll hand it over to you!"
Tengu came to Li Tai'an's side, and his tail rolled through Li Tai'an's hand with a long knife.
At the same time, the long knife was covered with white flames, and compared to the previous white light, the power was even more terrifying.
Because, the space around them is starting to distort.
Tengu looked at the four people who pounced on him again, and without any hesitation, his whole body flew up, the air quickly flipped over, and a round of white full moon appeared.
In a matter of moments, all four corpses had been cut in half, and the smell of fishy smell and fly ash instantly spread throughout the courtyard.
And the movement here has finally attracted the attention of the outside husband and the night watchman.
The movement in Xingxian County began to get bigger.
The tengu has once again taken on the form of a yellow dog, but it is many times larger than before.
He came to Li Tai'an's side, directly carried Li Tai'an on his back, and ran home.
If it is discovered by the people behind, then the two of them will not be able to explain it clearly.
"Why are you so much stronger than me with the strength of the Heavenly Master?!"
This was Li Tai'an's last sentence before he fell into a coma.
"Because I ran into a fake Heavenly Master!"
In a daze, Li Tai'an only felt that he was running wildly, and there were many noisy sounds in his ears.
By the time he was lying on the bed, Li Tai'an was already in a complete coma.
But it was at this time that the Heavenly Master Record in his body began to function on its own, repairing Li Tai'an's injured body little by little.
When he woke up again, Li Tai'an found that he was not in bed or at home.
Instead, you're in a bustling bazaar.
It's just that this bazaar is a bit scary.
The faces of the surrounding people glowed with a strange green light, and the lively streets were also covered with white smoke.
Although there were many pedestrians, there was not the slightest sound of walking.
The white candle burns with a green flame, but there is no shadow of the flame, and there is no shadow of the surrounding objects and pedestrians.
Li Tai'an stood on the street in confusion, why did he suddenly appear in this place?!
Where did the yellow dog go?!
In the face of these doubts, no one can give Li Taian an an answer for the time being, so he can only watch as he walks.
Soon, Li Tai'an discovered a lot of strange places.
These people do not use copper coins and gold and silver for trading, but paper money burned in the yang world and their own yin virtues!
And in this bazaar, there are those who sell the houses of the underworld, those who sell incense, and those who sell the shelter of their descendants.
Strange and varied.
On the contrary, some things commonly used in the yang world do not exist, and in the place where the garbage is piled up, Li Tai'an also found a lot of valuable gold and silver jewelry in the yang world.
"This, is this a ghost market?!"
Thinking of this, Li Tai'an couldn't help but feel numb in his scalp, although he was a heavenly master, in the face of these ghosts, he also had room to resist.
But when I was actually in this place, the fear in my heart was still uncontrollable.
"New here? What is your name? Where is the ancestral home? Why did you die? โ
Just when Li Tai'an was at a loss, a voice interrupted his thoughts.
As soon as he turned around, he saw two people, dressed in pure black clothes, wearing high, pointed hats, and a huge "poor" on the hat.
One holds a mourning stick, and the other holds a brush and paper.
Their faces were pale, their eyes were deep-set, and their long tongues were sticking out.
If it's in the middle of the night, this shape alone can scare a person to death.
"I don't know what I'm like, but I don't think I'm dead, right?" Li Tai'an said uncertainly.
Although he was already unconscious, he still believed that the yellow dog should not harm him.
"Indeed, our brothers didn't receive any news from above today! But you really aren't the one who stumbled into the ghost market, you don't have a body. One of them said to Li Tai'an.
It was also at this moment that Li Tai'an realized that it was his soul that was here, not his body.
"Could it be that the immortal master has an out-of-body soul and wanders the ghost market at night?" The other said uncertainly to Li Tai'an, and even looked at Li Tai'an with a little respect.
Looking at the surrounding ghost market, and looking at the thin son in the hands of the two ghosts, Li Tai'an immediately decided to fake the tiger.
"That's right, I just want to see what the hell is going on in this ghost market today!"
The two ghosts got Li Tai'an's affirmative answer, and their expressions became more and more respectful, after all, Li Tai'an looked seventeen or eighteen years old.
This will be able to go out of the body, if you don't entertain them well, in case the immortals get angry, they will be unlucky.
"I don't know that the immortal is coming, I miss the distance, and I hope that the immortal will forgive my sins."
Li Tai'an saw that the two of them had already believed his nonsense, so he continued to pretend to be a tiger: "Do you have a record of the souls of all the dead? โ
"Returning to the immortals, it is true!"
"So has there been a man named Liu San, a man named Xu Yong, a Lin Yaservant, and an old man coming over recently?" Li Tai'an wanted to know through them where the few people who died in Xingxian were.
"Returning to the immortals, no!"
"None? How so? โ
"Back to the immortals, there really isn't, whether it's a lonely ghost or a powerful ghost, we will have a record, but the few people who the immortal said just now really don't."
Li Tai'an frowned again, the answers of the two people were indeed beyond Li Tai'an's expectations.
At this time, Li Tai'an's body glowed with white light, and he flew up little by little.
From the white light, Li Tai'an felt a familiar aura.
"Heavenly Master Record!"
And the two ghosts saw Li Tai'an gradually soaring, and they also said respectfully: "Congratulations to the immortals!" โ
It wasn't until Li Tai'an left completely that the two ghosts knocked off their hats, wiped off the decorations on their faces, and revealed their original faces.
Su Lie and Lin Yagong!
In an alley, there were a few souls huddled, Liu San, Xu Yong, etc.
Waking up again, Li Tai'an looked at the familiar environment and made sure that he had returned home.
It seems that it was Heavenly Master Lu who brought him back just now.
"Why not?" Li Tai'an thought back to the situation just now and was very incomprehensible.
The yellow dog also rushed in for the first time, looked at Li Tai'an on the bed and asked, "Are you awake?" Why Was It So Long In A Coma? โ
"How long have I been unconscious?"
In Li Tai'an's impression, he also walked around the ghost market casually for a while, not for long.
"It's been a day and a night!"
Looking at the sky outside that was darkening again, it seemed that the coma had been in a coma for a long time.
"By the way, how much do you know about ghost markets and ghost chases?"
"Let's get a little bit of a look, but the two have nothing to do with each other! Ghost markets do exist, but it's not necessarily whether there are ghosts or not! โ
"What?!"
"The two are not connected?"
Looking at the surprised Li Tai'an, the yellow dog nodded his head: "There is no connection!" โ
"Then the ghost I just saw ยทยทยทยทยทยท" Li Tai'an fell into confusion again.
