Chapter 26: Demons

The word human is very common in this world, and the master who created this world civilization has left many words and classics that Gu Qing is familiar with, so Gu Qing easily integrated into the culture of this world.

Therefore, when Xu slowly said "abnormal human", Gu Qing didn't feel abrupt.

And the "we" in her mouth aroused Gu Qing's jealousy.

Gu Qing said slowly: "The 'we' in Miss Xu's mouth is an organization?"

Xu nodded slowly and said, "I'll talk about this later." My abilities have allowed me to blur the lines between the living and the dead, and my life has been no longer peaceful as a result.

I just said that I can communicate with the consciousness of the departed practitioners, but this is not easy to do, so far I have only communicated with two departed practitioners, and one of them is not very friendly, and I almost suffered a heavy soul blow because of this, and became a living dead. It was that experience that led me to join the organization. ”

She paused and looked at Gu Qing.

Xu slowly seemed to be observing Gu Qing's reaction.

Gu Qing didn't show any emotion, he seemed to be just a listener, like a tree, a grass, and a stone.

Xu slowly continued: "There is not only one person like me in this world, if I hadn't met the president, I would have been a dead person by now. The president has established a secret organization of psychics called 'Ash'. Gray of gray. The 'ash' is the 'we' you ask. And each of our members, if they die normally, will be cremated to ashes. But for us, it's actually a relief. ”

Gu Qing had analyzed before that Xu slowly liked lotus flowers, it was possible that she was in a filthy environment, and it seemed that his guess had been confirmed.

It's just that he can't empathize with Xu's situation, which is also natural, and human suffering is often unconnected.

Gu Qing said: "Now that I know your organization, your other identity, you tell me this, and you must hope that I will help you do something." ”

Xu said slowly: "Cultivators can improve their strength through cultivation, but unlike psychics, there is only one way for us to improve our strength, and that is awakening." Each awakening greatly increases the strength of our souls, allowing us to resist those things that ordinary people can't feel. Of course, there is a huge risk that every awakening will be attacked by the undead of the void. If successful, they will devour us. Including flesh and blood, including memories, including emotions. This kind of undead spirit is also called an extraterritorial heavenly demon by cultivators. In fact, they were wrong, the extraterritorial heavenly demons did not come from outside the territory, but the consciousness of the cultivator after death was infected with the breath of the demon god. I'm a year away from my next awakening, and I hope to have your help. ”

Gu Qing said: "Should I agree?"

Xu said slowly: "I will do my best to help you improve your strength this year, I know that you have your own set of cultivation methods, but psychics also have some secrets of cultivation that you are very eager for." I had intended to deal with the monster myself, but since you choose to know the truth, you will also be involved in my affairs, so it is necessary for me to tell you these things. ”

Gu Qing said: "Why was I involved when I knew the truth?" ”

Xu said slowly: "You can see this as a curse, and when you know the identity of a psychic, you will be involved in the strange events that the psychic is experiencing. I'm sorry. But I think you might have something to do with it. When this incident passes, even if you don't help me through the crisis of awakening, I will tell you the secrets of my cultivation that I know, and I will make amends. But this time, you can't avoid it. ”

Gu Qing said: "The monster's business, to be honest, it's not my opponent. ”

Xu slowly shook his head and said, "It's just a zombie that hasn't become a yet, as long as it is a cultivator with a certain strength, it can deal with it." But the existence behind it is hard to entangle. ”

Gu Qing said: "That existence made it a zombie?"

Xu said slowly: "Not bad." Didn't I say before that I communicated with two practitioners. The other is the father of the monster you mentioned, his name is Wang Feng, and he is not only a cultivator, but also a scholar who has a deep study of psychic. According to the research of Wang Feng's predecessors, most of people's memories are preserved in the physical body, and only a small part will be integrated into the consciousness that has not dissipated after death. And after death, the physical memory will quickly dissipate.

But after many years of research, Wang Feng's predecessors have found a way to preserve more memories in their consciousness. After I communicated to his consciousness, he didn't try to attack me. Instead, he was pleased to tell me what he had found.

It's a pity that the memories he has left behind are still far less than those stored in his physical body. Fortunately, he had expected it and recorded what he had learned in his life in a codex. I found the codex, and I had to fulfill the deceased's last wish, as I had agreed with him. It was a contest that took place 40 years ago, and it is not completely over today. ”

Xu slowly paused again and said, "That's a demon that can create a plague that can spread for hundreds of miles. It is also it that has turned the descendants of Wang Feng's predecessors into zombie-like monsters. ”

Gu Qing said: "Where is it?"

Xu shook his head slowly and said, "Only after catching that monster can I determine its location." But don't worry, after being severely injured by Wang Feng's predecessors forty years ago, it fled to a very remote place to sleep, and now it should have only been awakened for a long time. It was when it was at its weakest. Wang Feng's predecessor's codex has a means to deal with it, and with your help, he is about seventy or eighty percent sure. This is also the purpose of my visit to Jiangcheng.

It's a pity that I came too late, and the descendants of Wang Feng's predecessors were still killed. I stole the corpse and wanted to stop it from turning into a monster. But it didn't work out, and let it escape. Because it has a strange aura on it, which is not what I expected.

Later, I found out that it was near the pharmacy under your plate. But it soon spotted me and fled again. I think you have something in you that it cares about, and it may still look for you, so I reminded you on the way. When I got home, I felt it again, but I was some distance away from you, and I was afraid that you would be in danger, so I used the soul flute, which is the kind of instrument you heard. ”

Gu Qing said: "You are also sick because of using the soul flute?"

Xu said slowly: "The reason is that I am too weak myself, and it is very difficult to use it. ”

Gu Qing said: "Thank you." ”

Xu slowly said embarrassedly: "Seeing that you are not injured, I know that I have not helped much." ”

Gu Qing said: "It's good that you have this heart, I still have a question I want to ask you, if you can answer it, I will definitely spare no effort in this matter." ”

Xu said slowly: "Please speak." ”

Gu Qing said: "Do you know the Innate Ancestor Qi?"

As he spoke, his gaze fell on Xu slowly, not missing any of her subtle movements and expressions.
