Looking at the familiar environment, I couldn't help but feel a sense of joy for the rest of my life.
It turned out that everything just now was an illusion, and I stood there without moving at all.
From the first moment I laid eyes on the man in black, I was hallucinated by him.
Although I was thinking this, the strange thing was that my body still couldn't help but tremble, and waves of indescribable pain kept attacking my body, showing no signs of weakening because I woke up.
I raised my hand, looked at my palm, and was so surprised that I couldn't speak.
Because there were burn marks on both of my palms. Not only was the skin red and swollen, but there were even big blisters.
I couldn't help but suspect that I was really burned by the fire. I looked down and patted my down jacket, but there were no traces of being burned by the flames.
My clothes were intact, my hair and shoes were all intact, but the pain on my palms and body told me that I had really been burned.
Just when I was shocked, I heard an exclamation in my ears.
"How is it possible? This is not true!"
The voice was not loud, but full of surprise.
I raised my head, resisting the pain in my body, my expression quickly calmed down, and I stared at the man in black from a distance.
At this glance, I felt more and more familiar with this person's figure, as if I had seen him somewhere before, but I couldn't remember it anyway.
"Who are you?"
As I spoke, I stepped forward and walked towards the man in black.
As he got closer, the man in black became obviously nervous, and then slowly raised his head.
When I saw his appearance clearly, I couldn't help but be slightly startled. Under the black peaked cap, there was actually a pale face.
With a few simple strokes, he drew a cold face and a long, slanted red lip, which spread out from the corner of the mouth to both sides, as if it were cracked flesh and blood, and looked inexplicably eerie.
"I didn't expect that it was even more powerful than I imagined. It could actually break my illusion!" the other party suddenly said.
I raised my eyelids, and the voice sounded a little weird.
"Your illusion is very powerful, but it's a pity that you couldn't burn me to death!" I said coldly.
But just as I finished speaking, this person turned around and ran away.
I was stunned for a moment, I really didn’t expect this person to be so cunning, but I was not ready to let him go just like that. I gritted my teeth and chased after him. Although there was constant pain in my body, I still gritted my teeth.
Grit your teeth and endure it.
Seeing that the distance between us was getting closer and closer, there was a sudden roar of cars in the alley ahead, and a black car roared out of the alley, almost knocking me out.
I stopped quickly and backed away.
The car door opened quickly, and the man in black got directly into the car. The driver stepped on the accelerator, and the car rolled up a piece of ice and rushed into the distance.
I could only watch the car getting further and further away from my sight, and the expression on my face became darker.
This was obviously a premeditated robbery, and the other party must be a member of Xuanmen. It's a pity that I was able to crack it.
When I thought of the terrifying illusion just now, I couldn't help but feel a wave of fear in my heart.
People who can use illusions to such an extreme state make me feel terrifying. It is not just as simple as being able to sink the mind.
I looked at the air bubbles on the table in my hands and couldn't help but gasp.
In the illusion just now, I saw that I was burned by fire. Although it was just an illusion, my body reacted instinctively as if it had been burned by fire. This was a bit scary.
At this moment, I finally believed a rumor about hypnosis that I had heard before.
It is said that a master hypnotist, after hypnotizing a person, ran an ice cube across his arm and told him that it was charcoal. As a result, there were actually burn marks on the man's arm, as if he had been branded by charcoal.
.
I used to think this was a bit ridiculous. How could such a ridiculous thing exist in the world?
But now I realized that I was ignorant. Looking at my burned palm, it was very similar to the legend.
The only difference is that one is a hypnotic psychological suggestion, while the other is a powerful illusion.
The same thing is that its function is actually the same.
I feel scared just thinking about it. If I can't wake up from the illusion, then the consequences waiting for me may really be burned to death by non-existent flames.
But I don’t know when I was recruited.
I lowered my head and thought for a moment, then turned around and looked around the area.
Soon, my eyes fell on many inconspicuous places on both sides of the street.
I saw scattered sandalwood, cinnabar, rosemary, and black datura.
Among them, the black mandala is a unique plant from Africa. It is said that bloodthirsty devils live in it, symbolizing ominousness and disaster.
Putting these things together, they are natural hallucinogens. No wonder I fell into a hallucination just now and smelled a weird smell of blood. It turned out to be emanating from these things.
However, the other party's method obviously does not fully utilize these things, but also has some other methods that I don't know about.
But who sent the other party?
I couldn't help but think of the person in the black car I saw outside Jinguohao Trade City before.
It couldn't be that big shot, right? My body trembled.
But when I think about it, I think it’s unlikely.
While I was thinking hard, my phone rang again. I took it out and saw that it was the same number that threatened me when I was having dinner.
I took a deep breath and answered the phone.
"What happened just now was done by you, right?"
There was a sinister smile on the other end of the phone, but no words were spoken, but it was obvious that this was the acquiescence.
"Who are you?" I asked suppressing the anger in my heart.
"You don't need to know who I am. I said you'd better not get involved in things that I shouldn't get involved with. I just gave you a warning. If there is another time, you won't be so lucky!"
"As expected..."
Before I finished speaking, I hung up the phone over there, and a blind message beeped from the receiver of the phone.
Threat, Chi Guoguo’s threat!
The other party was clearly telling me that if I got involved in this matter again, my life would be killed at any time.
When I think about what happened just now, I feel as if a big stone is weighing on my heart, which makes me extremely uncomfortable.
What makes me most uncomfortable is that I have no idea who the other person is?
I have many guesses in my mind, including Hu Tiangang, another vice chairman of Seoul, Dong Mo, and even the mysterious organization Zhang Jian mentioned before...
But after all, this is just a guess. I have no way of determining who it is?
At this moment, I felt a deep sense of powerlessness, even some decadence, and felt that everything was out of my control.
