His words immediately made me confused, and it was only then that I realized what a stupid mistake I had made.
I cursed myself in my heart for being stupid, why did I bring the stone to find him?
Knowing that I had been exposed, the first thought in my mind was to run, but just like the last time I saw him in the village, the door was closed as soon as I ran to it.
Well, my heart felt so cold now that I could only turn around and look at him pretending to be calm.
I heard a man named Hu ask me: "You got the stone, right?"
I knew there was no point in hiding it, so I just said yes.
Then he asked: "Then what do you mean by lying to me? Do you want to keep it for yourself? Brother, that stone is of no use to you."
I took a deep breath and bravely told him that this thing is useless to me, but it is useful to you, so I don't want to give it to you.
The man surnamed Hu was stunned for a moment, but he soon smiled, pointed at Wang Yao's body and asked me: "Because of her?"
I also broke the rules and told him the truth directly. I nodded and told him that it was true. You have harmed so many innocent people. If I give you the stone and you harm more people, then I
Wouldn’t it be like helping the tyrants to do evil?
"Hey, you still have a sense of justice before you come out."
The man surnamed Hu sneered, and then asked me in that mocking tone: "Then first tell me who I harmed?
Before I could speak, he pointed at Wang Yao's body and said to me: "She died because her life span was exhausted. I just put her in. Is an ordinary little nurse worthy of my personal action?"
I said yes, even if Wang Yao died, what happened to the ghosts of those women?
The person surnamed Hu just said haha, you also said they are ghosts, not people, so why do you care about their affairs?
His words really annoyed me.
But I also knew that he was secretly changing the concept, and I followed the train of thought in my mind, and then I asked him: "Ghosts have their own secrets to catch them, so why are you trapping them here?"
As a result, he asked me again: "How do you know that I trapped them here instead of letting them go?"
I squinted at him and sneered and said let them go? How do I know if you let them go or let them go to pieces?
He didn't argue, but asked me in a calm tone: "Okay, you said I drove them to pieces, do you have any evidence?
You should be aware of the existence of Heavenly Dao, so let me ask you, since I have harmed so many ghosts, why hasn’t Heavenly Dao sent down thunder to kill me now?
Also, if it’s like you said, I absorbed the essence of so many ghosts, then wouldn’t I have been invincible for a long time, why bother to continue guarding this small morgue?”
After he said this, I started to feel confused.
Because Qingqing said just now that the number of women who died in this hospital ranged from ten thousand to several thousand.
But not a single ghost was seen in the hospital, which proves that these souls have been consumed by others.
In fact, I think so too, but Hu’s words are also reasonable. If he really harmed so many ghosts and Heaven doesn’t kill him, then God is really blind.
Just when I was stunned, the man surnamed Hu stood up, walked up to me, looked at me and said: "If you think about it again, if I am really the kind of person you think, then I will simply kill you and grab the stone directly."
That’s fine, why bother talking nonsense to you here?”
this……
I don’t know if it’s because my brain is not working well or if his words are too contagious, but I actually think what he said makes sense.
So I started to hesitate again. Maybe he also saw my inner struggle, and said to me in a slightly bewitching tone: "Even if you don't give me that stone, this formation will never be broken. I
Still do what should be done.
But if you give it to me, I can help you survive, at least so that you won't become the main soul of the "Suppression" method, and you will be trapped in that prison for the next two years, what do you think?
Brother, think about it carefully."
As soon as he finished saying this, the door behind me opened by itself.
I understood that he was throwing the question to me and letting me decide whether to give it to me, which meant that even if he didn't give it to me, he wouldn't stop me.
I looked back at the door, glanced at Wang Yao's body lying there, and then thought about what he just said. I don't know why, but at that moment I suddenly felt a little ridiculous.
Maybe the past few days have been relatively smooth, which has made me drift a little, forgetting that I am a person who is still struggling to survive and cannot even control his own destiny.
Besides, Qingqing also advised me not to meddle in other people's business, but what about me? I can't even protect myself, and I still have time to worry about the lives of these ghosts.
Really, I feel like a clown.
Smiling to myself, I took the stone out of my trouser pocket and handed it to the man named Hu.
The moment I saw the stone clearly, I clearly felt a glimmer of light flashing in his eyes, but it only took a moment before he returned to his calm expression and picked up the stone and put it in his arms.
Then he patted me on the shoulder: "There is a saying that people will be punished if they don't do it for themselves. It doesn't matter if you didn't understand it before. It's not too late to remember it now."
I didn't know what he meant when he said this, and I didn't say anything. I just stared at him at that station.
Then the man surnamed Hu asked me: "If I guessed correctly, the man surnamed Meng wants you to fly back to the Northeast, find the thing that imprisons your soul, and give it to him, right?"
His words surprised me a little, but I nodded my head with a "huh" expression.
The man surnamed Hu said that Meng Laizi's method is correct, but I think it doesn't take so much trouble to solve the problem in front of you.
Hearing what he meant, I knew he was going to help me, so I quickly pricked up my ears to hear what he was going to say next.
Seeing me like this, the man surnamed Hu grinned and said: "The most important thing for you right now is your life expectancy. There is less than half a month left, so you just have to find a way to increase your life span."
As for the half of the soul that was stolen, hehe, as long as you live long, you can find it anytime, right?"
I was stunned by what he said.
I asked him, aren't you just treating a headache and treating a pain in the head and feet, treating the symptoms but not the root cause?
