Ling Ning's body was swallowed up by the dark flames. When he came to his senses, he had arrived in the source space. With his eyes closed, he could sense the situation outside, but he could not control his body. Although he is still hesitant to believe the palace master, he can't bear his own powerlessness more than being taken away from him.
The scene of his father Ling Yuan dying in front of him kept flashing through his mind. He could not completely forget that suffocating scene for a moment. He didn't want to mention it to anyone. Maybe in the eyes of others, he was already strong enough. He swept through the monks of his generation, but in his own heart, he was still the weak and powerless ant who could only watch his father die in front of his eyes. This was a thorn deep in his heart, and although he tried hard to avoid it, it was always there.
Outside the source space, the dark flames faded away. Although the person in front of him was still Ling Ning, his consciousness was already occupied by the palace master. "Ling Ning" had an excited look on her face, and she kept moving her limbs as if she was feeling the joy of "being alive".
"Is this the sense of touch? It hurts...it's been so many years...I finally left that ghost place! Hahahahahaha!"
The commander was keenly aware that the person in front of him seemed to have changed. Even Qian Meier and Ruoxue faintly noticed that something was wrong, but they were too weak to intervene in the conversation between them.
"Huh? Who are you? You're not that boy! Where did that boy go?" the commander asked with interest. Although Ling Ning's change was unexpected, he was not nervous at all but in great interest. It seemed that everything It's all under his control.
"who I am?"
"Ling Ning" had a look of confusion on her face. To the Palace Master, since she had borrowed Ling Ning's body, she was no longer Ling Ning. But maybe she didn't know who she was. After thinking for a moment, she smiled slyly. Said: "Who am I? I am... Ling Mo!"
Ling Mo was the nickname she had chosen for herself, and the palace master had decided to call herself by this name if Ling Ning's body was used.
"Ling Mo? No matter who you are or what tricks you are up to, you'd better tell the truth. If you hide it, hehe, I guarantee you will die in embarrassment!"
Ling Mo's left shoulder was suddenly cut open by an invisible sharp blade, and blood spurted out. This was obviously a warning to command her.
Not only did Ling Mo show no sign of pain, but she looked like she was enjoying it. This long-lost pain seemed to be the highest reward she had ever dreamed of.
"I know you won't kill me!" Ling Mo looked into the commander's eyes and smiled.
"Oh? Are you so confident?" the commander said calmly.
"certainly!"
"Why?"
"Because there are still many puzzles about me that you can't figure out!"
"Hey, what is this? I don't care at all. If I want, I can kill you at any time. I can still find out the answer to the mystery after you die."
"No, no, no, you won't..." Ling Mo shook his head, then looked at him and said, "I know that feeling. You must have lived for a long time, right? You have been repeating this kind of work for a long time. ...That kind of boredom can sometimes drive people crazy, right? You need a diversion, so you won't kill me."
Ling Mo's eyes seemed to have some kind of magical power. He could see through the commander's mask and his inner thoughts.
The commander seemed to be really struck by what she said. His tone changed slightly and he said, "Who are you?"
"Have you ever heard of 'twin souls'?"
The so-called "twin souls in one body" means that there are two different souls in one body. This situation is because one of the twins died in the mother's womb, and his soul refused to leave and had to attach to the body of the twin. middle. Or the monk failed to seize the body and was forced to share the body with the host. This was not uncommon.
The commander understood it as soon as he heard it. He said "Oh" and seemed to lose the slightest interest.
"No matter what, I won the bet just now, and I will carry out the punishment now!" As he spoke, the commander raised his hand, as if Qian and Ruo would die on the spot when he lowered his hand.
"Hahaha, you can do whatever you want. Anyway, I don't know them at all, and I don't care about their lives."
"Oh really?"
"Yeah, if you think I'll be in pain if you do this, you're totally wrong."
The two looked at each other. After a moment, the commander slowly put down his hand. He knew that what the other person said was true. He could judge the authenticity of things from a person's eyes. He had this ability. Since the other person doesn't care about what he does at all, and he can't get pleasure from the other person's painful reaction, then why do it? He never does unnecessary things.
Seeing him put down his hand, Ling Mo smiled and said, "I want to bet with you again. I wonder if you dare?"
"Hmph, you also want to bet with me? Can you afford the bet?"
"If I lose, you can have our souls, and we will swear to be loyal to you forever. If you lose, I want you to let everyone go!"
"Hehehehe! I won't bet you that your souls can't escape from my hands. Besides, do you have to exchange just two souls for all the souls in my hand? Hehehe, that's ridiculous."
"No, you just need to let go of those people you just caught today. You should know that the number of souls is not the most important. What is important is that we will be willing to be loyal to you forever. You can conquer all souls with force, but you cannot Make them willing, you should know the value, and our souls are definitely worth it.”
The commander gave a rare nod: "You seem to understand the soul very well... Even if what you said makes sense, after what you just experienced, you are not afraid of me... Hehe..."
What he meant was, "Aren't you afraid that I'll go back on my word again?" Ling Mo naturally knew this, but she seemed to have her own plans.
"So this time I want you to make a contract with me. This will ensure that you will not regret it."
"Oh? It's not impossible to make a contract, but I'm not boasting. There are very few contracts that can bind me. Are you sure that the contract you know can bind me? Hehe, I can play with you, anyway, I am You won’t lose.”
"I want you to sign the 'Haechi Contract' with me. Do you dare?"
The smile on the commander's face suddenly disappeared: "Who are you? You actually know about the 'Haechi Contract'?"
The "Haechi Contract" is an extremely powerful fair contract spread in ancient times. Many ancient great masters would sign this contract when making bets to ensure absolute fairness.
"Haizhi" is a powerful mythical beast in ancient times. The big one is like a cow, and the small one is like a sheep. It is similar to a unicorn. Its whole body is covered with thick dark hair, its eyes are bright and lively, and it has a long forehead. Unicorn. "Haizhi" is extremely intelligent and understands people's words and human nature. It has angry eyes, can distinguish right from wrong, good and evil, loyalty and evil. If it finds an evil person, it will knock him down with its horns and then eat him. Therefore, it was also used as a symbol of bravery and justice in ancient times.
Not everyone can perform the "Haechi Contract". Often only those with great supernatural powers can "invite" the Haechi to move, so there are not many people who can do it. In addition, later monks gradually use simpler methods. "Tao Xin" swears, obviously this method is more "approachable", which makes this ancient contract gradually forgotten.
"Didn't I just give my name? Do you dare to have a fair bet with me? If you are afraid of losing or you can't invite Xie Zhi, then forget it. After all, you are just a small person in the human world. Role……"
Facing Ling Mo's "aggressive" commander, he didn't get angry but smiled instead: "Who said I don't dare? I just want to make a bet with you! What do you want to bet on?"
Ling Mo smiled slightly: "Since you have your own 'field', I believe you are not an ordinary person. How about this, let me guess your name? If I guess it right, you will unconditionally release all the people caught today." Man, if I lose, that kid and I will willingly dedicate our souls to you!"
The commander looked up to the sky and burst out laughing: "Come on then! Look at me!"
He waved his sleeves and drew complicated patterns in the void with his hands, and at the same time muttered something in his mouth. A scroll composed of golden spiritual power gradually condensed in his hand. The vermilion spiritual power recorded the details of the bet between the two parties in above. He pushed the scroll down in front of Ling Mo and said, "What do you think of the content of the bet?"
Ling Mo looked at it roughly a few times, and when he saw that the content was probably the same as what they just said, he nodded and said, "Okay, you're not playing any tricks."
The commander snorted and squeezed a drop of blood from his fingertips into the scroll. Then he let go of Ling Mo's hand, and Ling Mo also dripped a drop of blood into the scroll.
"By the way, lest you refuse to admit it, you have to write your real name on the scroll."
"What's so difficult about this?" The commander agreed without thinking. He left his name on the scroll, rolled up the scroll and began to chant the incantation. Suddenly, the golden light of the scroll emitted, and the space was distorted and a bird jumped out of it. A strange beast the size of a calf!
This beast has an ink-like body and a shape like a unicorn, and its eyes are like small lanterns emitting golden light. It opens its big mouth full of fangs and roars to the sky. Despite its small size, this roar is very loud, floating around. The ghosts were instantly frightened and fled in all directions, disappearing in the blink of an eye. Then the strange beast bit the scroll in its mouth and sat on the ground, watching every move of the two people.
Ling Ning, who was in the source space, also felt this legendary beast. He could clearly feel a very dangerous aura emanating from it. This aura was not murderous, but a kind of majesty, as if it were the most dangerous beast in the world. The right and wrong of all things are determined by the little beast in front of you, and no one can have any objection!
"The contract has been made. In order to prevent you from saying that I bullied you, I will give you three chances." The white mask on the commander's face cracked open again, revealing a weird smile, and he seemed to have a winning chance.
Ling Mo didn't panic at all, she calmly said: "Why don't you give me some hints?"
"No, no, no, we don't have this clause in the contract. Letting you guess three times is the greatest mercy I can give you."
"Hey, do you think it's really hard to guess? You underestimate me too much."
"Oh? So you already have the 'first' answer?"
The commander emphasized the "first one" obviously not believing that she could guess his name at once.
"Let me try to analyze it. This weird thick fog should be your 'domain'. To have your own domain, it is obvious that your cultivation level is not low, and you can actually move freely in the mortal world. Obviously you are not an ordinary monk..."
The commander looked at her with a smile on his face and had no intention of speaking.
"...Hey, I see you are not a monk at all! You must be an immortal, right? The so-called 'immortal'."
"Hehe." The commander just chuckled noncommittally.
"The fairy court in the center of the upper world has long since collapsed, and the fact that you can still retain the 'immortal book' shows that you are an immortal who is far away from the 'battlefield'... and it is also related to the soul... you are the judge of the underworld!"
"Hahahaha!" The commander looked up to the sky and smiled, "Is this your conclusion? It's too ridiculous!"
Haechi on the side was still staring at the two of them with no other reaction. It was obvious that Ling Mo had answered wrongly.
"If you're not a judge, then you're a kid! Are you the black and white guide to Hades?"
The commander shook his head: "No, no, it seems I overestimated you. This game is really boring..."
"mouse."
"What did you say?"
Ling Mo showed a smile that seemed to be successful: "Rat, I said you are a rat, a complete rat!"
The commander stared at her and said: "If this is your third answer, then I think you have lost!"
The smile on Ling Mo's face did not stop, but Haechi on the side made a gesture towards her ready to attack at any time.
"If you are wise, please give your soul to me. You should know that if you are stabbed by the horn of the Haechi, you will never be reincarnated."
"Are you asking me to admit defeat before you announce the answer? Maybe your name is really Mouse and you don't know it?"
"It's ridiculous. I'm actually playing this boring game with you..." The commander was already convinced that the guy in front of him who called himself "Ling Mo" had no skills at all and could only talk nonsense. He took out the scroll from Haezhi's mouth and unfolded it. His real name was written on it - "Tu Bo".
"Look carefully, Tu Bo is my real name. If you lose, give me your soul!"
Even after seeing the real answer, the smile on Ling Mo's face did not diminish at all. It seemed that everything was under her control.
"No, no, no, if you don't call Tu Bo, you'll call me 'rat'!" The restraints on Ling Mo's limbs suddenly ignited with dark flames, and then her whole body floated down in front of Tu Bo, and even the wounds on her body gradually Healed.
Tu Bo instinctively sensed a danger, and he couldn't help but take a step back to stay alert, but Ling Mo's eyes turned cold and he whispered: "Ghost Path·Eleven·Deprivation!"
Following her voice, the word "Tubo" on the scroll suddenly jumped. In full view of everyone, the word "Tubo" actually turned into "mouse"!
"No! This is impossible! You can't have this kind of power! Haechi! She cheated! Kill her quickly!"
"Hahaha!" Ling Mo let out a hearty laugh that she hadn't seen for a long time. She looked at the shocked expression on Tubo's mask, pointed at the tip of his nose and said, "Didn't you say it yourself? 'Weak guys are only worthy of Accept it! It turns out you don’t understand this truth!”
"you!"
In a trance, Tubo felt dizzy, and his name seemed to have really changed to "mouse". He screamed and suddenly lay on the ground crawling like crazy, and at the same time kept saying "squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak". The voice actually turned into a "big rat"!
"poor guy."
Ling Mo was no longer in the mood to play with him. With a wave of her sleeve, Tu Bo instantly turned into dust and smoke and disappeared in the air!
She said to the mythical beast Haechi: "Hey, thank you for your hard work. You have nothing to do here. Go back!"
Haechi nodded like a human being, then rubbed his big head against her body, and at the same time made a "moo" sound like a calf, like a child asking for a reward.
Ling Mo showed a rare gentle smile, and she reached out and touched its head. The warm yet rough hairy touch made her unforgettable for a long time.
"Good boy, go ahead."
Haechi lingered for a while and then reluctantly left.
Ling Mo stood there. She looked at her hands, then looked at the thick fog, and murmured to herself: "It's over, it's over... I should go back too!"
Ling Ning's perception was gradually obscured by the endless thick fog, and the palace master's voice came to his ears again in a daze.
"Ghost Path·24·Hungry Food!"
