Soul-eating Golden Coffin - C17
There was no other way. In order to survive, he could carry as much as he wanted!
Fortunately, the books were written in vernacular, and the content was mostly in plain sight, telling you how to do this and how to do that. It was pretty easy to remember. I skipped over the history of the Inaction Imprint and Palmprint Holder. By eleven-thirty, he had already read the book three times and had memorized most of the contents. He came to the kitchen and stuffed something whatever he wanted, then looked at the “Dream Record” in his hands, thinking he should stay at home. After all, the Old Master Zhang had been hiding for a lifetime, no one knew what would happen tonight, it couldn’t be destroyed by me.
My family had all gone to bed, so I took a switchblade from the drawer and put it in my pocket. Then I turned off the light, tiptoed to the door, and quietly opened it. Zhang Shan had obviously been back for a long time. He was lying on a bench beside the flowerbed at the entrance of the hospital with his legs crossed and his eyes closed. The backpack on the floor below him was bulging and he had no idea what he had bought.
Hearing that someone was approaching, Zhang Shan opened his eyes and saw that it was me, and quickly sat up. I asked, “How do you remember?”
“Pretty much. I’ve read it a few times. I can probably remember more than half of it.” Is it really useful to remember this? ” I never understood why I had to remember that.
“Sigh, it’s hard on you. Just leave it to fate! Whether it’s useful or not, I don’t know. I will just take it one step at a time. There’s no harm in knowing more! ” Zhang Shan raised his head to look at the sky, got up and said: “Let’s go! We have a lot of road to travel tonight, now that it’s over. “Don’t delay any longer.”
“Walk? “Why not take a taxi?” I asked, puzzled. There’s plenty of time to rent.
“I’m going to tell you something my grandfather told me. Do you think the driver will be interested?” Zhang Shan turned and looked at me.
“Oh …” “Then let’s go.” I followed helplessly. If I had known earlier, I would have changed into a pair of sneakers. The shoes I’m wearing now are very uncomfortable to walk on.
Zhang Shan said to me as he walked, “Even though I’m not a Palmprint Holder, I’ve been wandering around with Grandfather since I was young, and I’ve learned quite a few things. It can be said that if you were by my side, with your innate abilities, I could be considered half a Palmprint Holder. That’s why I asked you to come with me tonight. When we are together, with your talent and my ability, there won’t be any violent corpses on the streets. ”
I was silent, not knowing what to say. Ever since I found out that Zhao Youde’s corpse had disappeared, I carried it with me all the time. The reason why Zhang Shan said that, was definitely because he wanted to comfort me. Even the Old Man Zhang can’t deal with the Corpse Supporting Spell, but what can we do with an ordinary person, a brat who doesn’t even know anything and has Inaction Imprint?
In truth, before I left, I had already flipped through all of the < Terror Chronicles >, hoping to find a way to break through the Corpse Supporting Spell. However, things didn’t go as planned, and there wasn’t any introduction to the Corpse Supporting Spell in the book. It was evident that the Palmprint Holder was helpless against this kind of monster.
Zhang Shan also noticed my emotions and sighed. He stopped and looked at me, and said word by word, “When I was young, the children in the village kept scolding me that I was picked up. I always ignored them at the time. I thought I was avoiding them, but as time went by, they naturally stopped talking. However, the more I dodged, the more they scolded me. In the end, they simply threw rocks at me from behind. Whenever this happened, I would run home crying to tell my grandfather. Grandfather will tell me that I cannot hide from him. If I hide from him, they will look down on me for the rest of their lives. If they hit me again, I’ll hit them back. Then I went back that day and beat them all up one by one, and from then on they never dared to provoke me again. Therefore, Martial Uncle is your business. If you have no confidence in yourself, then you will never be able to hide for the rest of your life. Even if you manage to escape this time, what about the next time? What about next time? You don’t want to hide away for the rest of your life, do you? If you want to hide, you can, now tell me, we don’t have to waste so much work, just run as far as you can. However, you must know that it is not a human. The speed at which it seeks you is always faster than the speed at which you dodge. ”
After hearing what Zhang Shan said, I immediately understood a lot. That’s right, although his words are very simple, escaping isn’t an option. Moreover, I don’t even have the right to run. Since extending my neck is one slash and retracting my neck is one slash, I might have a chance to retaliate if I were to take the initiative to attack. If I didn’t even have the courage to face him directly, I would have already collapsed before the enemy even arrived.
Things are always like this, usually easy to understand. When the time comes, you must ask others to tell you before you can truly understand what they mean. I took a deep breath. Zhang Shan was right, there were only two options available to me right now, either to pull myself together and struggle to the last breath of life, or to work hard, or to just wait here for my death.
Do I have any other choice?
“I understand, but I think it’s too cruel to do this to Zhao Youde. I let go of his nightmare, shut his soul, and now wants to destroy his corpse … ” I finally took another step forward. Since he had already decided to face it calmly, he didn’t think about those useless things anymore.
“I don’t think you need to worry about that at all. The death of a human was like extinguishing a lantern. Zhao Youde, who had been inflicted with the Corpse Supporting Spell, was now a walking corpse. From a medical point of view, it was that he had only one breath left, one thought. It has no emotions, no memories, only one thought, and that is to kill you. I believe that Zhao Youde’s nature is not bad, but at the last moment, both you and him were deceived, resulting in the current situation. ” Seeing that my brain had regained its clarity, Zhang Shan looked quite happy.
I looked up at the sky. It is not my wish that this poor man should end up like this after his death: “In any case, I sowed the evil fruit. I do not hate Zhao Youde. If I had the ability, I would do my best to do something for him. ”
“Destroying the Corpse Supporting Spell is the best help he can get. Hurry and go, every second now is precious to us, the earlier we find the Corpse Supporting Spell, the more hope there is. ” Zhang Shan said as he took out something that should be a compass from his bag. He then turned around and gestured a few times before striding towards the west. I had no choice but to follow.
“Can I ask you a question?” We walked for a long time, but no one spoke. The atmosphere was tense, and I wished I could find something to talk about, something to relax me a little.
“Speak!” Zhang Shan had always answered whenever he was asked a question.
“What do you mean by” Four Great Profound Gate “?” After buying the map at night, Zhang Shan measured several times and drew a circle around Zi Jing Shan Park, the daily newspaper on Long Hai Road, a Zheng Hua Machine and a place to the south, saying that it was some Zheng City’s Four Great Profound Gate.
I didn’t understand it at the time, but now that I asked, I pretended to not know what to say.
Zhang Shan explained as he walked: “The so-called Profound Gate s are places where the Yin Qi and Yang Qi is exchanged. As I said, all things have yin and yang. A city is like a big magnet, and it has both yin and yang. For example, in the morning, people would go out to work in the east. At this time, the Yang Qi in the east would be heavy, but in the city, it would decline. In order to maintain the balance between the Yin and Yang, the Eastern Profound Gate would display its function, allowing the Yin Qi and Yang Qi to flow together, so that the balance of the city could be reached. Profound Gate could not be seen or felt. To put it bluntly, he was just a channel for regulating yin and yang, at the same time, he was also a barrier that blocked off yin and yang. Every city had their own unique Profound Gate. It’s not always the same. ”
I vaguely understood what he meant when I heard that. “Then according to what you’re saying, although the Profound Gate are the city’s regulators, they can’t affect our lives at all.”
Zhang Shan continued, “Not necessarily. Every time the Profound Gate opened and the Yin and Yang met, some people with yin or yang bodies would pass by, and there would be some small accidents such as sudden fainting, or when they were distracted, such as car accidents, wrestling, lost, etc. As long as you paid attention to the news frequently, it wouldn’t be hard to notice that some sudden events in the city would happen near the Profound Gate. But as long as it’s someone who is careful to keep themselves, they usually won’t have any effect. ”
These words made me recall two things that happened when I was young. Now, it seems that they were all related to Profound Gate s.
