"My family was well off. Although I died shortly after I lived, at least when I was alive, I never ate less of delicacies from the mountains and seas. Unfortunately, for me, they are all the same."
"How did you die?" Lu Jing asked.
"I heard people say that there is a kind of magical sheep in the South China Sea. They have scales on their bodies, can swim in the water like fish, and can control wind and waves. The most important thing is that their meat is very delicious.
"It has the tenderness of fish and the strength of mutton. The combination is the most wonderful taste in the world. Once fried, even the stone statues will cry when they smell it. I felt itchy after hearing it, so I hid it from my parents. Sneak out of the house to find this kind of sheep.
"And then you were killed by that kind of sheep?"
"No, I didn't go to Nanhai at all. Not long after I left the city, I met a group of extremely hungry refugees. They caught me, washed me clean, then found a big pot, put water on it, and boiled me I threw it away, and I didn’t expect that the last thing I would eat in my life would be the broth I cooked myself.”
"Uh, sorry." Qi Wenren said.
"It's okay, it's all over." The face said, "Anyway, I just died like this, but because of my obsession, I turned into a pair of sheep's horns and stayed at the bottom of the pot.
"After being picked up by others, I would trick them into swallowing me, so that I could possess them, eat as much as I wanted, and continue to fulfill my wishes that I had not been able to fulfill while I was alive. But I Then I met a ruthless character.”
"Are you talking about the owner of your current body?"
"Yes," the face blinked and said, "What does this kid believe in the God of Fire... I don't know if his god is powerful or not, but the spiritual magic he has practiced himself is quite powerful. You can get rid of my control, and even control me in turn."
Lu Jing thought about his previous fight with little Akuman. The opponent was indeed very conscious most of the time. He cried bitterly after seeing Lu Jing kill his teacher Dole, which made Lu Jing suspect that he was also like Hanshanke. In the same way, he refined himself into a strange object.
Now I finally found the answer.
"Essential magic, what kind of secret skill?" Qi Wenren on the side became interested when he heard this.
"This thing seems to be passed down from a single line. Except for Akuman, who has the most steadfast faith in each generation, no one else is allowed to practice. The practitioners have also sworn a poisonous oath to never reveal the method of practice.
"But you were lucky enough to meet me. I possessed him and shared a body with him, so he has no secrets from me. If you want to know, I can tell you the method of cultivation."
"Wait a moment. I'll take my notes." Qi Wenren said solemnly.
No one knows the value of this secret technique better than him, especially for Si Tianjian who often needs to deal with strange things. If there is a way to deal with the possession of strange things, it will undoubtedly allow a group of supervisors to use it in the future. Add an extra layer of protection to your investigation.
So he carefully found pen and paper, recorded every word that the face said, and then checked it with the other person again. However, after putting down the pen, Qi Wenren frowned.
"This set of spiritual mystics requires us to abandon all ties with heaven and earth?"
"right."
"What about daily practice? For example, the practice of internal strength requires absorbing vitality from heaven and earth and converting it into internal force through breathing."
"I don't know anything about cultivation. Anyway, this kid has never practiced any internal skills," the face said, then paused and sighed, "He is actually quite miserable. His most trusted teacher has been deceiving him. .”
"I was found first by his teacher, who also let me possess several people to study me, and finally chose to let me possess his disciples to control me.
"But this is not without cost. After the boy was possessed by me, although he could escape my control with his magical skills, the hunger I brought to him would not disappear.
"That is to say, he will be hungry all the time, and his teacher lied to him that this was a test given to him by the God of Fire, but in fact his teacher just used him as a weapon for revenge and to realize his ambitions. "The face sneered.
"I'm quite happy that you were able to stop him, especially since you also freed me from my obsession. I once thought that no one in this world could free me." It said while looking at Lu Jing again, " So before I leave, let me give you a gift."
Lu Jing was a little surprised, "Didn't you already tell us about that spiritual magic?"
"That's not my thing. I'll tell you casually when you want to know. If you feel sorry for it, just spare this kid's life. Unlike his teacher, he is actually very simple-minded."
After saying that, the face turned to Lu Jing again, "Come here."
Lu Jing was no stranger to this kind of thing, but he was still a little wary when he heard this, "What you want to give me has nothing to do with secret power, right?"
"Secret power? What secret power." The face was confused.
Lu Jing also put down his snacks and walked over.
Qi Wenren on the other side opened his eyes wide. As a person from Si Tianjian, how could he not know that he can get rewards from the strange things by helping them resolve their obsessions? However, this kind of thing is not easy. People who can do it always not much.
Qi Wenren never thought that one day he would be lucky enough to witness it with his own eyes.
He saw Lu Jing standing still in front of that face, and then the face suddenly opened its mouth and bit Lu Jing's arm.
Qi Wenren was shocked and thought there was some accident.
As a result, Lu Jing didn't evade or dodge, and was bitten by the face. Then he heard the face yell again, "Hey, you are so... why are you so tough?" "
You must know that it is so hungry that it can even chew an iron chain, but in Lu Jing's case, it ate every time.
Fortunately, he tried his best this time and finally left a series of shallow teeth marks on Lu Jing's wrist.
After murmuring the last sentence, the face gradually sank from little Akuman's belly until it disappeared. Also missing with it was the pair of goat's horns on little Akuman's head.
In contrast, where Lu Jing was bitten, there was a pattern of ram's horns, which was very similar to the ram's horns on Qi Wenren's body before, but upon closer inspection, it was somewhat different and seemed more vivid.
Qi Wenren couldn't help but worry about Lu Jing and asked, "Are you hungry now?"
"I'm not hungry." Lu Jing shook his head, "I feel like I haven't changed much from before, but you... I see you haven't eaten for a while."
After being reminded by Lu Jing, Qi Wenren realized that indeed, his stomach no longer growled with hunger.
