Chapter 1028: Complete Puzzle
After arriving at the office, as usual, I told the thin man about yesterday's situation and Wu Ling's analysis.
"In this case, he can really use your ability to follow you through time and space?" The thin man was surprised.
"Well, that's how it should be. But it should be costly. I replied.
The cost is probably not "very large", but "quite large".
Every time I saw Ye Qing in a dream, Ye Qing would languid for a while, and even be seriously injured.
"When Ye Qing was not out of control, he was able to make a move at a critical moment, which is good news. If he gets out of control, you'll probably not be able to escape. Chen Xiaoqiu said.
"If he gets out of control, I can't escape if he can't enter the dream." I smiled wryly.
The gap in strength cannot be bridged by relying solely on ability. At least in the case of too large a gap in strength, no matter how rebellious the nature of my ability itself is, it is useless.
The thin man added: "It's us who can't escape, and the entire Minqing can't escape, right?" A ghost like Ye Qing will definitely become a terrifying demon king. However, if Brother Qi dies, he will also be a terrifying demon king. β
The thin man had a playful look on his face.
"If Ye Qing kills me, he will destroy my ghost together." I said calmly.
That's what I really think.
The people of Aoba know everything about my abilities, and I can't hide it from them. This kind of information asymmetry makes it impossible for me to please them at all.
Cooperation is my only choice. Their options may not be so limited.
The daily chit-chat ends.
Publicize the voting results, make a new round of publicity boards, contact the neighborhood committees of the six villages of workers and peasants, and formulate persuasion plans for property owners with certain problems...... We started the day with a busy day.
By the afternoon, my phone rang.
It was Wu Ling who sent a text message, saying that he had found out some information.
It lifted my spirits.
Wu Ling made an appointment to meet at a location. To my surprise, she said that it would be better for others to come along. The location is not a hotel suite, but a private room in a small restaurant.
On Wu Ling's side, the three people from Aoba acted together, and they arrived at the private room early.
After a few words of greeting, Wu Ling returned to the topic.
"I inquired about a situation. The Void Buddha I talked to you about before has indeed been seated. But he has a descendant and has absorbed the power of his physical Buddha, which is almost equivalent to another him. β
As soon as Wu Ling's words came out, they were very amazing, and we were dumbfounded.
This is mainly because the concept of a physical Buddha is so famous.
I remember two years ago when the incarnate Buddha from a large temple was taken out and a puja ceremony was held, and many Buddhist masters and celebrities were invited to participate, and the news media also reported on it.
For most ordinary people, that's a specimen of a celebrity's corpse.
Two years ago, I was just that kind of ordinary person.
After being exposed to paranormal events, I didn't connect these with the bits and pieces of real life.
When Wu Ling said it at this time, I felt a little scary.
"Is the physical Buddha really that magical? Isn't it inviolable? Guo Yujie asked curiously.
Wu Ling nodded and shook his head, "If you have a thought to stay after death, then the corpse will become a physical Buddha, otherwise it will just be an ordinary corpse." The Void Buddha was no longer an ordinary person during his lifetime, and it is not strange to leave a physical Buddha after death. That heir was not his disciple, but he had accidentally encountered the physical body Buddha he had left behind, and absorbed the thoughts left on itβand perhaps a faint spirit. However, there are also rumors in the circle that the heir may also be the person who has been invaded by the mind of the Void Buddha. Have you ever met a real person? That's the case. β
Tianyi Zhenren relied on the seizure of his disciple's corpse, lived for more than two hundred years, and was a real old monster.
After Wu Ling introduced the situation of the Void Buddha, he said the information related to the content of my dream.
"Lynch, the effect of your dreams on reality has also been discovered. In the past two days, a lot of people have been talking about it and trying to find you. Wu Ling first said the not good news, and then continued, "Among the two memories of those people, the past memory is that the view of the Void Buddha has changed, and the past two years have been devoted to eliminating ghosts and monsters, so as to improve their strength; The new memory is that the Void Buddha was not heard from for a long time after he went to the Green Tea House a few years ago, and no one has seen him since. β
When I heard this, I was a little stunned, and for some reason, Ye Qing suddenly appeared in my mind, sitting on the ground, weak.
Wu Ling's eyes were jet black, reflecting a little of the light of the indoor lights. Being watched by those eyes made me nervous.
"In their past memories, the latest goal of the Void Buddha should be Minqing. According to the consensus in the circle, Minqing originally belonged to the territory under the jurisdiction of our Aoba, and Xuanqing Zhenren also intervened here. Unless we ask for help, or if we all die, no famous companion will set foot in this area. Another exception is that people from Minqing City can also come to Minqing City if they are invited or paid to hire them. Generally speaking, before coming, they will say hello to us or Xuanqing real people. Some small fish and shrimp don't need to talk about these rules. Although we have disappeared for many years, Xuanqing Zhenren has always been. After parting ways with the group of antiquity dealers and starting to hunt ghosts and demons, the Void Buddha is a lone ranger and does not accept employment. He had never said hello to Xuan Qing Zhenren. Wu Ling said lightly.
I suddenly felt that I couldn't breathe, and it seemed that there was a lot of cotton wool stuffed in my lungs, blocking my normal breathing.
"I didn't know that Xuanqing Zhenren would enter Minqing, and after entering Minqing, there was no movement. I think there's only one possibility. Wu Ling continued, "His target is Ye Qing. In the entire Minqing, I'm afraid there is no more powerful ghost than Ye Qing now. β
The whole box fell silent.
The thin man couldn't help but look at me.
Nangong Yao asked, "Is there something going on that we don't know about?" β
I said with difficulty: "I went to the office last night, Ye Qing...... Very weak. β
Wu Ling's information became the last piece of the puzzle, and the whole thing had formed a complete picture in my mind:
Presumably, after the Void Buddha entered Minqing, when we didn't know it, he stared at Ye Qing and was discovered by Ye Qing. Ye Qing killed the Void Buddha in advance through my dream, but with the help of my dream's action of killing the Void Buddha, it consumed too much of his strength and made him languish.
Last night, Ye Qing used my dream again. This time, he should have used the method of devouring other ghosts to make up for his lost power and repair his soul.
Of course, another possibility cannot be ruled out, that is, Ye Qing was attacked by the Void Buddha and was injured. It's just that the injury disappeared after he changed the past, and it was replaced by the effect left by the loss of strength.
After realizing this, I found that the most dangerous person now was not me, but Ye Qing.
Not only is Ye Qing's own situation very dangerous, but his behavior is also dangerous.
Wu Ling's expressions also proved that my guess was not wrong.
"That's not a good sign." Wu Ling muttered, "If you go too far on the path of ghosts, you will lose yourself more and more." β
