037 Why does it give me hope and make me despair? (Ask for follow-up)
Sunlight pours down on the underground stairwell.
Sinovel hung in front of the door in a large font.
His face was pale and gray, his fangs were exposed, his white hair was as wild as weeds, his eyes were bloodthirsty, and he regarded everyone as prey.
From him, there was a thick evil aura and bloody aura, so that those well-trained bodyguards did not dare to come forward, so they had to stand in the sun and guard Hua Yinghao in the middle.
Beside Huarui, Zhang Xuanyang, who was wearing a cyan robe, was inspecting Huarui with a solemn face.
He tapped on Hua Rui's bronze arm, and immediately made a dull sound like a striking iron vessel.
Reaching out and pinching it again, he found that even if he mobilized the power of the third order, it was difficult to pinch it, as if it was a puppet made of stainless steel.
Then he tore off a pinprick white hair from Hua Rui's body, observed it for a moment, turned to Su Mo and said:
"Ask Master Su to stretch his mouth a little wider."
Su Mo nodded, ignoring the ho-ho sound coming from Hua Rui's throat, and stuffed a three-finger-wide air tentacle into his mouth, completely widening his mouth, almost splitting.
Zhang Xuanyang approached and looked closely at his teeth, tongue and throat under Hua Rui's nose.
After a while, he took two steps back and sighed with a complicated expression:
"It's stiff."
Su Mo was not surprised.
He had already expected this outcome.
Hua Yinghao in the rear asked with great concern:
"Daoist Xuanyang, what is the situation with my father? What is stiffness? ”
Zhang Xuanyang looked at him and replied in a heavy tone:
"In today's world, in addition to aura, there are also countless strange powers.
After death, there may be all kinds of unthinkable changes due to these powers.
A considerable part of the monsters we have killed come from here.
And within these monsters, there are also many divisions, such as resentful spirits, monsters, dead zombies, etc.
The zombies are very similar to the zombies you often see on TV, they are all formed by corpses that have undergone corpse transformation.
The living stiffness, also known as the raw stiffness, is relative to the dead stiffness.
It is formed from living people.
In general, there are two ways in which stiffness is formed.
The first is that it is bitten by a dead body, but it does not form a fatal injury, and the strange force contained in it will gradually infect the body and make it ossify.
The second is that if you come into contact with certain alien forces, you may directly become stiff when you are exposed to an extremely high concentration of alien forces.
According to my preliminary examination, Mr. Hua should be the second type. ”
"So, what should I do? Can this be cured? ”
Hua Yinghao suddenly panicked, and for a while, the six gods had no owner, and he couldn't see the decisive demeanor of killing in the mall at all.
Zhang Xuanyang glanced at Hua Rui.
The other party was delirious, and he looked extremely bloodthirsty, and he looked like he would pounce immediately if he let go.
Zhang Xuanyang pondered for a moment and replied:
"I can only say that I will do my best, but I dare not guarantee the result, Mr. Hua has been deeply poisoned, and he may not be able to save him."
Hua Yinghao glanced at his father, who was not human, gritted his teeth and said:
"Please also ask the Taoist to let it go."
Zhang Xuanyang nodded, took out a blue acupuncture bag from his sleeve, and prepared to administer needles to Huarui.
Su Mo watched this scene and was speechless for a while.
He could naturally see the seriousness of Hua Rui's condition.
Under the reflection of spiritual perception, he was filled with a strange strange force.
This strange force was entangled with his life force, and even his mental state was seriously affected.
If you want to save Huarui, you must first separate this strange force.
But he is old, his qi and blood are withered, and his body is too weak, and it is likely that he will not be able to hold up the process of separation alone, and he will die directly.
And if he ignores it and adopts conservative treatment, he will not live long either.
As a first-order magician, Hua Rui broke through to the fourth order in a very short period of time, and it was not without a price.
All the potential in his body has been stimulated by the abnormal force, and he can exchange it for the strength that is skyrocketing like this.
But this excitation has reached his limits.
The more the fire burns, the more fuel is needed.
According to Su Mo's estimate, he should not reach the 5th level, and he will burn out like a candle.
This also shows the horror of that strange force.
Forcibly elevating a 1st order to the level of 4th order, even at the cost of sanity and life, is unimaginable to many people.
If this news is released, there will be countless cultivators who will find ways to find the source of the alien power and strive to control it in their own hands.
If it is done well, it can even create an extremely large cultivation force through this.
However, Su Mo didn't pay attention to these.
He only wants to destroy the source of evil behind the power.
While Su Mo was thinking about it, Zhang Xuanyang had already pierced many silver needles of different lengths and thicknesses on Huarui.
Just pricking the needle made him sweat profusely, which shows how hard Huarui's body is.
And after all the silver needles were pierced, looking at the hedgehog-like Hua Rui, Zhang Xuanyang, whose hands were trembling slightly, asked Su Mo:
"Trouble Master Su to force out the strange power in his body according to the route I delineated."
Su Mo nodded.
Although he doesn't have spiritual power, it's the same if he has spiritual power.
The surging spiritual power suddenly penetrated into Hua Rui's body, and according to the spiritual power mark left by the silver needle, all the strange forces locked in it were forced towards the chest and abdomen.
After the strange force was forcibly forced away, there were immediately visible changes in all parts of Sinovel's body.
The pinprick white hairs on the body are falling off, the skin is stiff and soft, and there are even many more folds and age spots, and the sharp and slender nails are also shortening, and it seems that everything is developing in a good way.
Hua Yinghao had a smile on his face.
Zhang Xuanyang breathed a sigh of relief.
Even Chen Shuo, who had been watching from the side, also looked insightful.
Among the crowd, only Su Mo could detect the faint death qi in Hua Rui's body.
But he didn't stop.
Tossing back and forth will only make Sinovel die faster.
Since it can't be saved, then give him a decent ending.
Under the rapid impetus of spiritual power, countless strange forces were like hundreds of rivers returning to the sea, condensing into a ball in Hua Rui's chest, and finally rushing out of his throat along the esophagus, revealing its true face.
It was a mist the size of a ping-pong ball, glowing with a faint yellowish tinge, and the aura revealed in it was exactly the same as what I had felt on the river monster that day, but it was much stronger.
Seeing this table tennis ball mist, Zhang Xuanyang's face showed a look of surprise:
"This doesn't seem to be an ordinary strange force, it looks like a corpse qi leaking from the body of a dead zombie."
Hearing this, Chen Shuo next to him was suddenly startled:
"Xuanyang Lao Dao, don't be joking about this kind of thing!"
Zhang Xuanyang said in a deep voice:
"Since I went up to the mountain to become a Taoist priest, I have never deceived others, and this corpse qi is exactly the same as recorded in the classics!"
Chen Shuo's face immediately became ugly:
"Just a ball of corpse qi can turn the 1st order into the 4th order, how strong should that dead head be? Could it be above the Shadow level?! ”
Zhang Xuanyang shook his head with a solemn expression:
"This breath gives me the feeling of being very ancient, it must have been handed down a long time ago, even if it is a dead stiff strength through the sky, it will definitely not survive the end of the law era, and it must have already turned into dust.
What's more, if he really exists, with his strong strength, once it is revealed, it is impossible for us not to receive any news. ”
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Su Mo, and humbly asked:
"I don't know what Master Su thinks about this?"
Su Mo felt speechless.
What can he think?
He can't say that even if the other party's body is here, he seems to be able to fight.
I don't think anyone will believe this kind of thing.
He simply shook his head and said:
"Don't scare yourself, it's completely unnecessary to be scared without even seeing what the other party looks like.
As for more information, we will find out by asking the person concerned. ”
As he spoke, he looked at Hua Rui, who had untied his restraints and put them on the ground.
At this moment, his body had recovered from its initial hardness to a shriveled state, so weak that it seemed as if a gust of wind could blow it down.
His face, wrinkled like a knife, had a strange flush.
Seeing his performance, including Zhang Xuanyang and Chen Shuo, everyone's hearts were all chuckled.
They thought of the same word – back to light.
"Dad!"
Hua Yinghao pushed away the bodyguard, rushed to the front and squatted down, holding Hua Rui's thin body in his arms.
As if awakened by this call, Hua Rui opened his cloudy eyes.
He glanced at Su Mo and the others in front of him, and then looked at Hua Yinghao who was full of worry beside him, his voice was hoarse, and he said with a wry smile:
"Yinghao, it seems that I have caused you a lot of trouble during this time."
"No trouble, no trouble."
Hua Yinghao's tone was choked, and his hands were trembling.
"You are a good boy, I am relieved that Dahua will hand it over to you."
Hua Rui patted the back of his hand lightly, turned to look at Zhang Xuanyang with a silent expression, and smiled embarrassedly:
"The Taoist chief once advised me not to be too obsessed with life extension, but I couldn't get out of it, so I ended up like this, no wonder others.
In order to prolong my life, I have tried countless methods, but none of them have succeeded, and it was not until I met the Lord that I finally saw a little light.
According to the instructions of the World Venerable, I learned to eat Buddha meals like other Buddhists, avoid light and darkness, and go to the temple every night to listen to Buddhist scriptures, and my body gradually became stronger and younger, and my strength was increasing rapidly, but my hands and feet were no longer under my control, and my reason was also far away from me.
In fact, if you think about it, how can there be such a cheap thing in the world? Can you prolong your life and become stronger, and you don't have to pay any price? No matter how top-notch a strange thing is, it can't do it to this extent.
But by the time I realized it, it was too late.
This is the result of my own hands.
Fortunately, it was finally removed by you before it could cause more harm.
I have to thank you.
But I can only say thank you......"
Hua Rui's gaze gradually began to drift, and the rosy on his face was rapidly fading.
He looked at the sunlight shining down the stairwell, as if remembering the warm scene when he teased his grandson, and muttered in a low voice:
"How good would it be if you hadn't woken up?
Why did it give me hope and make me desperate......"
Looking at Hua Rui, whose breath had completely dissipated, and listening to Hua Yinghao's crying loudly, Su Mo only felt that his mood was very complicated for a while.
In fact, he can roughly understand Huarui.
If you haven't awakened before you die, that's fine.
As an ordinary person with a full life, he can meet death without any worries.
But now they have clearly become cultivators.
Obviously, they have seen the grandeur of the scene that has never been seen before, and have experienced the majestic power far beyond that of mortals.
How could he be willing?
And that's the root cause of today's tragedy.
Regarding Huarui's choice, Su Mo can't say whether it's right or wrong.
In the same position, he might do the same.
If you want to say that the most deserving person in this tragedy should be hung up and beaten, there is no doubt that the world-honored person in Hua Rui's mouth.
As soon as he thought of this, Su Mo's fist hardened.
"Old Man Hua has already passed away, so what should I do with the investigation of this corpse qi?"
Chen Shuo frowned and said in a deep voice:
"The effect of this corpse qi is so weird, it can be forcibly promoted to the fourth rank by order 1, and it can also make people become delirious and bloodthirsty, and it must not be left alone.
And listening to what Old Man Hua said, there is not only one Buddhist like him, and he must find out the world-honored person who is hiding behind the curtain before causing even greater chaos! ”
"I want to capture the Lord more than you, but this matter is not so easy to solve."
Zhang Xuanyang replied with an ugly face, obviously Hua Rui's death also made him suffer a certain blow:
"Not to mention that we don't know the whereabouts of Shizun now, even if we do, we can't judge his strength realm, and running over indiscriminately is likely to be the end of the entire army, and this matter must be considered in the long run."
"There's no need to think long-term, I'll be able to deliver food in the afternoon as soon as possible."
Hearing Su Mo's words, Zhang Xuanyang and Chen Shuo couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and a strange meaning appeared in their hearts at the same time-
Could it be that the importance of eliminating the mastermind behind the scenes is not as important as food delivery?
"But we don't know the whereabouts of Shizun, and now that even Old Man Hua is dead, there is no clue to talk about."
Chen Shuo looked embarrassed.
"Then let the one who knows the way take us there!"
Su Mo's expression suddenly turned cold, and the ubiquitous air immediately turned into a giant hand, grabbing a bodyguard standing by the window of the hall on the first floor.
This bodyguard was the same person who had been spying on him when he came in.
Of course, it wasn't this bodyguard who really peeked at him, but a certain monster attached to this bodyguard.
Since he dared to come here at such a special time, he must have some kind of relationship with Hua Rui, maybe it was secretly sent by the World Venerable to help Hua Rui escape.
The air giant grabbed the bodyguard and quickly handed it to the underground staircase.
The bodyguard screamed in the air, and suddenly, his eyes rolled violently.
Immediately, a shadow that was rarely seen by ordinary people suddenly burst out of his body and fled frantically in the direction of the outside of the villa.
Seeing this, Su Mo couldn't help but sneer, and raised his hand to put the bodyguard on the ground.
The reason why he used the air giant hand instead of the spirit giant hand was to force the monster to flee voluntarily and prevent it from being implicated in the bodyguards possessed by it.
Now that he has really abandoned and fled, he can't play as much as he wants.
In a moment's thought, the terrifying spiritual power suddenly imprisoned the entire space, and the phantom shadow seemed to fall into an amber worm, unable to move.
He was then lifted to the underground stairwell.
"It's ...... Glamour? ”
Looking at the illusory figure with no eyes, no nose and no ears, only a big mouth, Zhang Xuanyang's face was full of surprise.
"It's not just a ghost, it's a yellow pages level ghost!!"
Chen Shuo was also shocked.
Yin ghost, this is an extremely special kind of monster, weak strength, but good at concealment, even if a strong person is a realm higher than him, he has not been able to discover him, and there have even been cases of yellow pages level yin ghost possessed on the body of the 5th order in the past, which shows the strength of its concealment ability.
Chen Shuo didn't know when the yin ghost in front of him had mixed into the villa, and he might not be able to notice it when he left.
But now the other party was easily caught by Master Su in the underground stairwell and exposed in front of everyone.
For a while, Chen Shuo felt more and more that Master Su was unfathomable.
Looking at the yin charm sealed in the spiritual space, Su Mo couldn't help frowning slightly.
It's easy to catch, but how do you let him lead the way to Shizun?
You must know that most of the monsters are difficult to communicate with and cannot understand human speech at all.
And if you pinch him to death and read the memory directly, you are worried that it may damage the key memory.
As if seeing his entanglement, Chen Shuo hurriedly stepped forward and said like a dog:
"Master Su, I have a plan to let this Yin Charm take us to his lair."
