Chapter 731: Old Man with Candle
This discovery surprised Xiao Ye.
"Are you dead?" Xiao Ye asked subconsciously.
He finally saw that the person in front of him was actually a soul.
For some unknown reason, his soul body did not dissipate.
"Although you are a child, you have pretty good eyesight, and you can actually see that I am just a soul body." The man was a little surprised.
Xiao Ye asked: "I saw a few corpses before..."
The man interrupted Xiao Ye: "Yes, one of the corpses is mine."
Xiao Ye looked around and asked with some confusion: "What about the others?"
"Hehehe." The man laughed and picked up a burning white candle from the side: "Here it is!"
Only then did Xiao Ye realize that there was such a white candle next to him.
He subconsciously took a step back, somewhat disbelieving: "You turned them all into candles?"
"That's right, so that I can continue walking." The man nodded directly without any intention to hide anything: "They are destined to die. Rather than doing this, it is better to help me, although I don't know if I can reach my destination."
"What are you looking for?" Xiao Ye couldn't judge the man's actions, but he was curious about what the other party wanted to do.
"Why are you asking this? Is it possible that your purpose is also to go to that place?"
The man looked Xiao Ye up and down, then shook his head and said: "Listen to my advice and go back quickly, otherwise your final outcome will not be any better than ours, and you will eventually abandon your body and become a Become an existence like us, and then be made into a candle by others. Only candles can allow you to survive in this place."
Xiao Ye was stunned for a moment and asked, "You mean there are many people like you in this place?"
"Of course." The man nodded.
"What is your purpose?" Xiao Ye became even more confused.
"You actually don't know anything. It seems that your purpose is not this. But if your purpose is not this, then what are you doing here?" the man asked curiously.
Xiao Ye shrugged: "I just came to this place accidentally, but from what you said, I am quite interested in this place."
"Kid, no matter what your purpose is or who you are, just listen to my advice and leave quickly, otherwise the person you meet next time will not be as easy to talk to as me." The man said calmly.
After saying this, he stood up slowly, lit a candle and walked into the snow-covered forest.
"By the way, candles are very important if you don't want to leave!"
The sound came from far away.
Why light a candle made from the soul body?
Xiao Ye was a little confused.
Although he was a little confused, Xiao Ye did not stop. Even though it was very strange here, Xiao Ye's purpose had not been achieved yet, so naturally he would not leave so easily.
Xiao Ye continued on the road, heading towards the place where the consciousness of the world was.
Naturally he went along the river.
Along the way, he met someone who looked exactly like the man again. He was lighting candles and wandering in the forest like a ghost, not knowing what he was looking for.
The moment he saw Xiao Ye, he seemed to want to take action, but he seemed to be afraid of something and ultimately did not take action.
This made Xiao Ye a little disappointed.
I was looking forward to them taking action, so that I would have a reason to kill them.
He also wanted to see what was so weird about these ghosts.
It's a pity that they didn't take action.
I don’t know how long I walked, but the snow in the sky slowly began to lighten, and then stopped completely.
Xiao Ye also stopped, and there was another person blocking the way in front of him.
This is an old man, and he is also a soul
body, but the fluctuation of taboo power in his body is stronger than that of others.
He just stood in front of Xiao Ye, holding a white candle in his hand. When he saw Xiao Ye approaching, he actually spoke quietly: "Leave the money to buy the road."
"What's the road money? Does this road belong to your home?" Xiao Ye asked calmly.
"Leave money to buy the road." The old man seemed not to have heard Xiao Ye's words, and still repeated this sentence mechanically, as if he could only say this sentence.
At this time, Xiao Ye saw a soul body appearing in the distance, but when the soul body saw Xiao Ye and the old man beside him, he quickly ran away without looking back.
"Leave money for traveling!" the old man's voice sounded again.
"What's the toll money?" Xiao Ye tried to ask again.
However, the next moment the old man actually grabbed him directly.
Xiao Ye frowned and did not move.
A soul body has no impact on him.
The old man's hand passed through Xiao Ye's body, as if he wanted to grab something from his body, but he missed it and there was nothing in his hand.
Xiao Ye was slightly surprised. At that moment, he felt as if his soul body was being pulled by something.
But this feeling goes as quickly as it comes.
The old man didn't catch anything. He froze on the spot, and there seemed to be a trace of confusion in his cloudy eyes.
Xiao Ye shook his head and walked over. Seeing that he was motionless, he took the white candle from his hand.
He swore that he just wanted to see it and would return it to the old man after reading it.
But what he didn't expect was that after he took away the old man's candle, his body seemed to be blown by a storm, and disappeared bit by bit into the cold wind like loose sand.
Xiao Ye's hand holding the candle froze in mid-air.
He opened his mouth to say something, but there was no one in front of him.
The other party came suddenly and went away suddenly.
It comes in a hurry and goes in a hurry!
"So this candle is what they use to maintain their souls?" Xiao Ye looked at the candle in his hand and seemed to understand something.
No wonder all the souls he saw held a candle.
But there seems to be something wrong with the old man's state. It seems that his self-awareness has disappeared and turned into a special existence.
Although he didn't know what he was talking about, Xiao Ye knew that it was probably not a good thing.
After all, good things don't want their souls just because they don't leave money to buy them.
"Leave money for traveling!"
What made Xiao Ye a little helpless was that not long after he had walked away, a figure appeared in front of him again.
Xiao Ye was silent.
Different scenarios.
Same conversation.
And the same people!
He was still the old man who had a close relationship.
Only this time he seemed to have some changes.
Weakened a little!
"Can't you change someone else?" Xiao Ye tried to ask.
"Leave money for traveling!" The other party still didn't answer his words.
Xiao Ye was silent for a moment, snatched the candle from its hand, and then punched the opponent away.
He doesn't even want to reply. It seems that he is not a friend. When dealing with people who are not friends, he must attack with thunder without giving the other party a chance to react.
"Leave money for traveling!"
When this sentence rang out for the third time, Xiao Ye was already quite familiar with the next process.
Guns and candles, and then send each other home.
Although I don’t know what these candles are used for, the more the better.
After punching away the old man, Xiao Ye felt that he had become weaker.
the fourth time.
the fifth time.
the sixth time.
…
The tenth time!
This time Xiao Ye did not rush to take action, but stopped.
Because there is no candle in the other party's hand, and his words are intermittent, and his figure is looming, as if he is about to disappear completely.
"It seems that this is reaching its limit." Xiao Ye thought thoughtfully.
Just as he thought. After being beaten so many times by myself, it was impossible that nothing happened.
Although I don’t know how he came back to life again and again.
"Leave...the money to buy...the road!"
Xiao Ye admired the other party's professional code, even though the other party did not bring a gift candle this time, although it is very likely that he will never see the other party again next time.
So Xiao Ye decided to help the old man get off work early as before.
Phew!
Xiao Ye punched the old man, and the old man completely disappeared from this world.
He felt that the other party would not appear again after this time.
However, at this moment, he didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt that something around him had changed, and his whole body seemed to be stared at by something.
"I knew this matter wasn't that simple." Xiao Ye couldn't help but shook his head.
However, Xiao Ye was already prepared. He took out the Thousand Faced Phantom, blended it into the Heart of Time familiarly and put it on his face.
The next moment, the familiar figure of the old man appeared on the spot.
