Chapter 52: The Ghost Haunts
After leaving a distance, he felt that there was no one to follow nearby, so he quietly changed his outfit and acted as Qi Mingchen.
He now needs to find a place to eat the rejuvenated fruit and practice quietly.
It's not easy to find such a place where you won't be disturbed.
There was a large forest nearby, but he wasn't very familiar with it, and he was worried that there would be strange beasts that he couldn't deal with.
But in order to repair the dark wound, he was still going to find a secluded place inside.
As the night deepened, the seemingly ordinary forest became mysterious in the moonlight, and the light spilled through the leaves on the ground like a silver ocean.
He walked deeper and deeper, and for some reason a feeling arose in him.
There seemed to be something inside that was attracting him.
His consciousness became in a trance, as if he had become sleepy, and as if he had become more awake.
Wrong!
He suddenly came to his senses and realized that something was wrong with his state.
When this thought arises, this trance feeling disappears, and the consciousness returns in an instant!
"Here ......"
His eyes widened slightly, and he looked around, and the forest disappeared all at once, replaced by a very old-looking village.
The village is still located in the valley, with low buildings scattered among them, and the mottled walls can feel the years of the houses.
But just now, he was obviously in a forest, when did he become a village?
At this time, he saw a person in the village, who seemed to be a very ordinary villager, but after taking two steps, he found that his consciousness was in a trance again, and the surrounding scene changed back to the forest.
He stood still, lost in thought.
Was that a hallucination?
It wasn't like it, he had just smelled something different from this forest, whether it was a feeling or something, it was like he had really come to another place......
It wasn't so much an illusion that he felt more like the secret realm he had experienced before, but this place itself was not far from the secret realm of asking the heart, and it was impossible for the secret realm to be too close to the secret realm.
Or is it possible that this is related to the secret realm of inquiry?
He guessed, but he also sensed the danger.
He wasn't going to stay here longer, he was going to wait until he became stronger in the future, and then he would come and explore here.
"You're right. 】
A familiar voice rings in my head.
Enlightenment stopped.
He tensed all over, and the sudden appearance of such a voice in his head in the dark night really startled people.
"Ask the secret realm?"
[That's right, but you can call me a ghost.] 】
Qi Mingchen saw the ring in his hand and said, "You ran into my ring?" ”
[Well, I won't interfere with you or anything. 】
"......" He didn't expect that choosing a ring would be such a trouble, but even if he knew, he might continue to choose a ring.
"What did you mean when you said I was right?"
[This place is indeed related to the secret realm of asking the heart, but compared to here, the secret realm can be regarded as a playhouse. 】
"Playing house...... Family? Qi Mingchen felt that the acquired play house didn't sound very interesting.
[You are fated just now, where you want to leave alive, at least until the Yuan Infant Period. 】
Qi Mingchen's heart was shocked, and he screamed in horror: "Yuan Infant Stage! ”
In the Yuan Infant Stage, in the entire continent, it can be regarded as the strongest existence.
At present, there are only three known Yuan Infant Stage, and they are in the three first-class forces.
"Is it so dangerous to look like an ordinary village?"
[This is the real secret ......]
He suddenly remembered something and asked, "Why did you leave with me?" ”
[I thought you wouldn't ask.] 】
"...... he just cares more about the village.
[Okay, I'm just a consciousness of the secret realm, and I've been in charge of managing that secret realm, and now that the task is complete, I want to leave. 】
"So you ran to me?"
Because you're the only one who hasn't been replaced. 】
Qi Mingchen didn't believe it, he always felt that this ghost had another purpose.
He didn't really like everything he did being spied on, so he simply asked, "How can you leave?" ”
[Are you going to drive me away?] I kindly came out to remind you, you want to drive me away? 】
He didn't understand how this man spoke with a sense of resentment, as if he had abandoned it from the beginning.
"I don't like life to be spied on, and ......" Qi Mingchen kicked the stone under his feet and said lightly, "I don't trust you." ”
【……】
The ghost fell silent, and after a long time, said:
[I can indeed leave, but it is good for you to leave me. 】
He sat on a stump, opened the wine gourd, poured it into his mouth, and said in a much more relaxed tone, "What good?" ”
[After you drink, how do you seem to be a different person?] 】
In the face of the person who was cold just now, he suddenly became free and easy, and the ghost was a little uncomfortable.
"Oh, isn't that listening to you? Boredom take a sip of wine. ”
【…… Well, my existence can enhance the space ring and make the space grow with your strength. 】
Qi Mingchen's eyes lit up, and he smiled: "This is really good!" ”
The space ring that can grow, this is definitely a treasure that first-class forces will compete for.
"So...... Anything else? ”
[Isn't this enough?] Normally, this value is already very high! 】
"I was drunk, so I was unreasonable, and if I wasn't satisfied, I threw you away."
The ghost had never seen such an unreasonable person, and looked at Qi Mingchen, whose eyes were clear, not at all like a drunken person, and said helplessly:
[This ring can store spiritual power, and I can also help you explain some knowledge that you don't understand. 】
Qi Mingchen's heart jumped, not to mention the benefits of the future for the time being, storing spiritual power here really made him excited.
If you say that when you don't usually use the first light, store the energy in the ring, and then wait for it to recover, and when you use it, you can exert stronger energy, whether it is attacking or repairing the elixir, it is a superb means!
Now, he is more vigilant.
What is there in him that makes this ghost pay so much good, and why do you want to stay?
"Last condition......" he held out a finger.
The ghost couldn't bear it anymore and said loudly:
[Isn't that enough?] What more could you ask for? 】
"This is necessary, if you don't agree to this, I don't want any more benefits."
These words calmed the other party and asked:
[What conditions?] 】
"Make a contract with me, swear by the way of heaven, and will never do anything unfavorable to me."
【……】
The wraith fell silent.
After a long time, it said:
[I can promise that I won't hurt you, but whether what I do will affect you is not certain. 】
Qi Mingchen felt a lot of information from it.
Sure enough, the ghosts followed him with their own plans and purposes, and he even suspected that those clones would need to be operated by the ghosts themselves.
He thought for a moment and said, "Yes, you swear to Heavenly Dao that you don't want to hurt me, so I promise you to stay." ”
For the sake of this space ring that can store spiritual power and grow, it is worth taking the danger in it.
