When the crisis approached, He Fei took the lead to break the life binding. How could this not surprise Ye Wei?
Not only that, what she couldn't understand even more was...
Why? Before proceeding, since He Fei had stated that he was not very sure, why did this guy insist on using his own wax figure for the experiment? Isn't this person... afraid of death?
Putting aside the fact that He Fei committed a personal risk, when it comes to the soul mark, or what the soul mark is, it can still be explained by Ye Wei's intelligence. After a few days of observation, it can first be determined that the blood locust remover has the ability to remove biological wax. In addition to this ability, he also has a second hidden ability, that is, the blood worm can transfer part of the soul of a living person unknowingly! This is easy to understand. The reason why a person is alive, in addition to the body according to the scientific definition, also depends on the soul inside the body. The soul and the body are both indispensable. Generally speaking, when the body is destroyed, the soul will be lost due to the loss of the carrier. It disappears quickly. In the same way, once the soul is destroyed, the body will inevitably die along with it.
It is undeniable that the blood locust has the ability to transform living people into wax figures. It does look scary, but strictly speaking, even this is not the most terrifying thing. As mentioned above, the blood locust's real and most secret ability is It's a soul mark!
What is a soul mark? Soul imprinting means that a part of the soul of a living person is separated from the body through some special means. Since the separated soul is only a small part and does not disappear, the human being who has been manipulated will not die, let alone be discovered. In fact, a part of one's own soul is missing. However, it is this small part of the soul that has been stripped away from the body that is also the key factor leading to a person's death.
As mentioned above, the soul and the body complement each other and are indispensable. People with damaged souls will die together. Combined with the ability of the blood worm, the answer is ready to come out:
Since that small part of the soul is only stripped of the body and not destroyed, the person who has had part of the soul stripped will neither die nor have any abnormalities. As for the small part of the soul that was stripped away, where did it go? Naturally, they were transferred by the blood locust to the wax figures in the wax figure room that looked exactly the same as those whose souls had been stripped away. Yes, from then on, each wax figure represented the soul of a living person. So, when these wax figures When damaged by external forces, the soul that has been integrated with the wax figure will inevitably disappear along with the wax figure. Once the soul is destroyed, living people will also die together.
To put it more bluntly, it can be understood as:
You are you, but the wax figure that carries part of your soul is also you. The destruction of the wax figure means that your soul is damaged. Once the soul is damaged, you will die with it.
Not only that, as her thoughts gradually deepened, Ye Wei further analyzed a certain key point. As expected, the blood locust hidden in the manor does not actually have the ability to directly damage human souls, nor does it have the ability to directly destroy human souls. With the ability to completely peel off a living person's soul, 'he' can only transfer a small part of the person's soul. This is a good explanation for why the blood locust does not directly attack the human soul but instead uses the incredible method of sealing the soul in a wax statue.
Seeing this, some people may ask, since a wax figure that is exactly the same as a living person represents that person's life, and since the living person will die with the wax figure if it is destroyed, then... why did He Fei dare to destroy his own wax figure? Aren't you seeking death by doing this? Is this equivalent to committing suicide?
The truth is this, but after listening to Yao Fujiang's sober narration, He Fei suddenly thought of a new guess, that is:
Since part of a person's soul can be transferred, there must be a way to take back the lost part of the soul. How to take it back? Only by destroying your own wax figure can part of your soul hidden in the wax figure return to your body. Others cannot do it. Destroying your wax figure by others is equivalent to damaging your soul.
Do you have to destroy your own wax figure to recover your missing soul? Why? If you still don’t understand it at this point, I can explain it with a simple example.
For example, a person accidentally loses his wallet, and the wallet contains many important documents of that person. The wallet may be picked up by others, but the person who picks up the wallet will never become the owner of the wallet. Only the wallet can be found by its owner again. If the wallet is picked up by others, it means that important documents are permanently missing, which will bring great inconvenience to the owner of the lost bag.
Although it is just a metaphor, the truth is the same. You must take back the lost soul yourself. Others will only destroy your soul!
Destroying his own wax figure by himself is the only way to retrieve his missing soul. This is He Fei's true intention in setting fire to his own wax figure. This is also the final guess he came up with after some hard thinking. The reason why it is described as guess, Because even He Fei himself was not sure, that's why he took the gamble and took the lead in betting with his own life like a desperate gambler.
The only good thing is that he made the right bet. The missing soul will only return to the body when he destroys his own wax figure. In this way, the curse of life binding between the wax figure and the living person is also lifted! ! !
………
Let's get back to the subject, despite the long description above, in fact all of this is just a moment's thought in Ye Wei's mind after confirming that He Fei was not dead. Although she can't guarantee that her personal understanding is correct, but before He Fei set the fire The fearful expression on his face, which looked heroic but now turned pale, can be seen at a glance.
Yes, as Ye Wei saw, at this moment, after confirming that not only was he not dead but his missing soul had also returned, He Feihou was extremely scared! The heroic spirit and calmness he had when he lit his wax figure on fire had long since disappeared, replaced by a frightened expression. He sat slumped on the ground, his face was pale, sweat was all over his body, and his body and limbs were even more so. He was shaking constantly, and he didn't even have the strength to get up from the ground.
This is obviously scary.
Before igniting the fire, He Fei was not afraid of death. He looked like a tough guy. However, after discovering that he was lucky enough to survive, He Fei's current state was as if he had changed. For a moment, he was afraid of death. Excessive and frozen in place!
"You gambler!"
At the same time, just when He Fei was in a daze with cold sweat breaking out, Cheng Ying walked up to the young man, holding on to his weak body. She first glanced at him, and then, with an angry curse, she gave him a loud slap in the face. Hit He Fei on the left side of his face!
Snapped!
"oops!"
The slap was so powerful that not only did it knock He Fei out of his wits on the spot, but his left face was instantly red and swollen. He Fei couldn't help but let out a scream, and immediately covered his face with his hands and asked Cheng Ying in front of him with a puzzled expression: "You, why did you hit me?"
As an aside, He Fei is currently looking quite miserable. The right side of his face that was punched by Peng Hu not long ago is extremely swollen, and the left side of his face is even more red and swollen from the slap just given by Cheng Ying. At first glance, it looks like , the colors of the left and right faces are very symmetrical.
"Why did I hit you?"
As soon as He Fei said this, Cheng Ying, who was already very angry, raised her foot to kick him. However, before He Fei could dodge, perhaps the movement was too big and caused a wound on his abdomen. In pain, Cheng Ying walked straight back. Fortunately, Peng Hu reacted quickly and caught her, otherwise Cheng Ying would have fallen to the ground. As for Peng Hu, seeing that the opponent was completely incapable of action, the bald man simply killed Cheng Ying. Carrying it on his back, at the same time, it was confirmed that all the wax figures had been destroyed. Unlike He Fei, who was still more or less in a state of fear, Ye Wei, who realized that the death crisis was far from over, did not dare to neglect, first and Zhao Ping looked at each other and nodded. The next moment, the female captain ordered everyone present without hesitation: "Quick! Everyone leave immediately and leave this building immediately!"
After saying that, Ye Wei took the lead and rushed out of the room.
Seeing that the female captain was taking the lead, everyone did not dare to neglect and immediately followed in stride.
This is easy to understand. Unbinding life does not mean safety. At least no one who executes it knows it. But even so, there is still one thing that everyone does not know...
Just as a group of people were running out of the room and running along the corridor, the scene returned to the wax figure room. After careful observation, they saw that a large area of the ground in the room began to turn red at some point, and was quickly covered in red. As the ground quickly turned red, After a moment, a blood-red head slowly emerged from the ground.
This is a blood locust!
but……
The difference from the past is that this time, what emerged from the ground together with the blood locust, and what appeared together with the red body... was also countless amounts of blood!
Blah, blah, blah...
The sound of liquid flowing was endless, and soon, a large amount of blood spread around like a stream at a speed visible to the naked eye! In just a few moments, the entire wax statue room was occupied, filled, and eventually covered with large amounts of blood.
And as red covered everything, as blood flowed freely, in addition to the rolling water, there was also a string of unclear words mixed inside:
"No one...can...escape...don't...fall!!!"
