Why did Li kid hide the fact that Zhuosi had more than one spiritual core?
Is it just because he is afraid that he, the lion, will open his mouth and ask for more spiritual cores?
That doesn't sound like the character of that seven-year-old girl.
Li Liang recalled the scene at that time, especially Li's subconscious annoyance when he gave away the spiritual core. He also thought that maybe Li didn't know that Zhuosi still had a spiritual core? Is there something else she's hiding?
A burning sensation came from his fingers. Li Liang lowered his head and realized that before he knew it... the smoke had finished burning.
After putting out the cigarette butt, he looked at Old Tang in front of him again.
Old Tang looked gloomy, lowered his eyes, and took another cigarette. The smoke he exhaled rose in the light of the halogen lamp.
"Tell me about the psychic," Li Liang's tone sounded like a casual chat between friends.
Old Tang was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting that Li Liang would care about the psychic instead of continuing to ask about the "new world".
However, he seemed to have decided to "give up on the rear wing". After thinking about it for a moment, he said hoarsely:
“Psychics have a long history. Initially, they were just a group of paranormal enthusiasts who felt the presence of spirits but didn’t know what they were.
They occasionally organize some small gatherings to exchange experiences with each other. Most of the time they make up supernatural stories. You know the kind of stories, there are all kinds of things. In fact, we still retain this tradition, small-scale gatherings, until now. Everyone sat around and chatted and stuff. "
Old Tang slowly relaxed and puffed out the smoke:
"Later, this group of paranormal enthusiasts slowly eliminated those who just loved paranormal things, leaving behind a group of people who can really feel spirits. Spontaneously, you know, a very long process, these people formed the true spirit Yes, and later, the Zhuos clan found the True Spirit Society and took several of them to the moon to meet the first advisor."
Li Liang hummed in agreement and sat relaxed, as if he was listening carefully to a story.
"The consultant was a necromancer. He explained to them the knowledge about spirits. It was very superficial because the consultant was very arrogant. However, later they met a magician who taught them more about Taoism. However, you also know that the spirit of the earth is very scarce, and those consultants were unwilling to show their spirits to demonstrate, so the first few people just wrote down all the scattered knowledge.
After so many years, more people from the True Spirit Society were pulled to the moon, and then sent into the Deep Sea Gate. Very few came back alive, and most of them were probably dead. Later, Xi'an closed The gate to the deep sea. "
Li Liang nodded. He had heard the following history from different people, including Yuan Zhen, Tata, Ling Ye, Li Xiaozi, etc. The versions described by these people from their own perspectives were basically the same.
"Since then, Xi'an seems to have forgotten the True Spirit Society and a group of special people in Xiacheng District. At that time, most of them were confused. There were not many spirits on the earth, and they did not have teachers. Some were just some With scattered knowledge, it seems that the spiritual world is just an illusion." Old Tang shook his head mockingly, "That's when I joined. At that time, I was still immersed in the excitement of feeling the spirit, but the result was very disappointing. , it seems, there is no hope, you know?
Then, the ruler stood up and said that there are very few spirits on the earth. Yes, we know very little about spirits. Yes, but we just give up and continue to be mediocre like this? If we lack the spirit, we will save it. If we don’t understand it, we will experiment and explore. One day, we will be able to master the power of the spirit..."
Old Tang's eyes were red, "So, we changed the name of the organization to Psychic. We worked during the day and gathered together at night. We studied, discussed, and tested bit by bit, and accumulated and explored bit by bit. Very It was difficult, that time was very difficult.”
Li Liang listened quietly.
Even though the psychic was the enemy at the moment, a scene still appeared in his mind. A group of people were walking on an unfamiliar path in the dark. They didn’t know what was under their feet or what was ahead of them. All they had was a determination to explore. Heart.
Perhaps this is something engraved in human genes.
In the Ming Dynasty in 1390, when Wanhu sat on a cart with forty-seven flying monkeys tied to it, holding two large kites and lighting the fuse, the man's heart must have been as solid as a rock.
Everything that humans have today comes from those "ridiculous" recklessness.
"After a few years, I forget exactly how long, the people of Zhuos contacted the Dominator again, and we learned that seven consultants were stranded on the earth and had been cooperating with Zhuos. Next, Zhuos provided some more complete solutions. The magic and Taoism system brought the "New World" for the first time. It was ridiculous. Only then did we understand what soul-sending and admission meant. The "New World" began to provide us with more souls. At the same time, We also know our new mission.”
Li Liang subconsciously sat up straight.
The purpose of starting a chat is to change from a inquirer to a listener. Only in this way can he hear more unexpected details. In addition, people like Old Tang probably don’t have many friends. It’s easier to let Old Tang talk by talking quickly. Open your defenses.
"Providing spirits is only one of the functions of the 'New World'. Transformation is its real greatness. However, opening the 'New World' requires conditions and requires the sacrifice of many people who have reached the third level of inspiration, so..."
"How do you detect people's perception of spirits?" Li Liang remembered two things. One was that the black tour guide Tata once believed that his inspiration reached the third level, and the other was that Tam said that the reason why Tata thought so was, It's because Tata's Horcrux can only sense the third level at most.
"Through the advisors," Old Tang said, "there are three advisors who are good at spiritual power who can detect the Horcrux with the help of soul weapons. However, the most powerful advisor refused to cooperate and went to the Deep Sea Gate alone. Relying on the other two advisors, we Human inspiration is divided into seven levels, one is the lowest and seven is the highest, and begins to search for those who meet the conditions around the world.”
Li Liang realized that it must be Tam who went to the Gate of the Deep Sea, and one of the two consultants left behind was Tata. No wonder the black tour guide said that his spirit was exhausted. It turned out that he had never been idle and was used as a hunting dog by Zhuos. .
It's a wicked thing and it's totally deserved.
Li Liang thought about it and frowned: "How many levels of inspiration do you have?"
"Ho ho..." Old Tang smiled, "I understand what you mean. Do you think people like you, whom we call fuel, broiler, monkey, etc., are actually the same as us, right?"
Li Liang's eyes were calm and silent.
"I've read something about the origin of human beings. What are they called? Yes, Neanderthals and many other human species lived in the same era as Homo sapiens. Homo sapiens wiped them out and then became the earth. "The master of the world," Old Tang exhaled a puff of smoke, "Do Neanderthals count as humans?"
