Chapter 19 Main Idea

  "Qiang Ge... this symbol seems to be problematic..." Covering their throats, the two men let out a painful and puzzled inquiry.

  "If there were no problems, would I let you touch?" I said coldly.

  "Qiang Ge...... you...... what does this mean?" Two men with distorted expressions looked at me in agony, their faces filled with incredulity.

  "What does it mean? Take a closer look at who I am?" I quietly looked into the eyes of Old Liu and Zhou Qin, then using the method that Hu Xian told me, I said to them:

  "Understood!"

  As I untied the soul hook technique from the two people, as I withdrew the magic from their bodies, Old Liu and Zhou Qin looked at my expression, which changed from initial confusion to extreme terror in an instant, as if they had just woken up from a dream.

  "......Huh? Is that you! You little beast!!!” The two men kneeling in front of me almost simultaneously let out a startled cry, their voices trembling and mournful.

  I looked at the two people's distorted faces and felt a little nauseous, so I said lightly:

  "Yes, it's me. I really want to thank you for throwing me into this well and giving me a chance to start anew. When you report to the King of Hell, don't forget to tell him my name, I'm Wang Yisheng."

  "Goodbye. Zhou Qin, Liu Fugui. You are Zhang Guohua's two good dogs."

  Looking at the two men's wretched appearance, I said a sentence in a light tone, then slowly moved the flashlight beam away from their faces.

  In the instant when the flashlight beam moved away, what I saw was the light in the eyes of two men gradually fading away.

  Am I guilty? Am I sad? When Old Liu and Zhou Qin died in front of me, I felt a kind of inexplicable desolation. These two men almost killed me, if it weren't for Hu Xian, I would have died at their hands long ago. But now that I used the seal to suppress Hu Xian and kill them, I instead feel a kind of inexplicable coldness and chill, as well as fear. This isn't my first time killing someone... although both times weren't directly by my hand. But what's the difference between this and murder?

  My conscience began to feel somewhat uneasy, but reason told me I was right. These two complex emotions swirled in my mind, leaving my brain a jumble of confusion.

  I shook my head and turned around, without looking at Zhou Qin and Lao Liu's corpses again. I let out a sigh and walked to the side of Hu Xian.

  "I didn't expect you to turn around and use the talisman that was used to suppress me to kill people. You're quite clever." The fox spirit said in a half-mocking tone beside him.

  I took a deep breath, remained silent for a while, and finally said to the Fox Immortal: "The only method I can think of is this... If we really fight them, I won't be able to defeat them. In the end, they will just turn around and kill me. Moreover, this also confirms two things. One thing is that the removal method you told me is indeed useful. The other thing is that your talisman, I really can't decipher it..."

  "I could have told you that a long time ago. You're really a suspicious person." Hu Xian said calmly, her voice still as cold and clear as ever.

  I sighed and the murky air in the cave made me feel a little nauseous and queasy.

  "They're dead, so now I can at least control two people at once, right?"

  "Not... wrong." The fox spirit said in a lazy tone.

  "That's it." I clenched my fist and slowly walked out of the shadow of Lao Liu and Zhou Qin's death, "This time, I won't make any mistakes again."

  "Are you sure? Ha." Hu Xian smiled coldly, "This world is more complicated than you think. People are alive, schemes are dead. Don't treat people as if they're dead. Otherwise, the one who's dead might be you, Wang Yisheng."

  "Hehe, good words. I remembered." I looked at the fox fairy with some heaviness, looking at her thin clothes, and I quickly shifted my gaze to ask, "Aren't you... cold like this?"

  "In eighty-two years of cold age, I was locked up here. What about you?" The fox fairy slowly turned her head to look at me, saying with uninteresting eyes.

  Was she locked up here in 1982? So this woman has been locked up here for at least... thirty years!?

  When I heard Hu Xian's statement, I felt a sense of shock.

  The woman in front of me, no matter how I look at her, is just a girl under the age of twenty, that is to say, she is only a high school or college student. How could it be possible... for her to be locked up here for thirty years without aging?

  But thinking of Hu Xian's extraordinary identity, I immediately felt at ease.

  "So you're an old veteran after all. You haven't aged at all, forever young!" I said with some embarrassment. Being locked up here for thirty years, countless springs and autumns have passed, asking if it's cold or not is really stupid.

  "Beauty preservation technique." The fox fairy replied indifferently, then seemed to think she hadn't finished speaking and added two more words, "...whatever."

  "Mind-reading technique, age-halting technique, soul-luring technique. How many more techniques does this fox spirit have?" Up until now, I've personally witnessed three of the fox spirit's techniques from this woman in front of me. Who knows if she has even more?

  "A lot." Hu Xian replied simply. Apparently he didn't want to tell me more.

  I took a deep breath, looking at the fox spirit exposed in the dark air, thought for a moment, and finally took off my coat and gently covered it over the fox spirit's body.

  "What's this, trying to win me over?" The fox spirit said with a slightly flirtatious tone.

  "Hehe, just think of it that way." Being said by the Fox Spirit like this, I was taken aback for a moment. "A woman being naked is generally not good. Although it seems you're even less concerned about it than me..."

  "Are you shy?" asked Hu Xian in a lazy voice.

  "This woman is really out of her mind. After a few questions, I didn't know how to answer her anymore, so I just coughed twice and stopped talking."

  "Hmm, Wang Yisheng, you're still young after all, still at an age where you believe in love."

  When I heard what the Fox Fairy said, I was shocked and felt as if I had been slapped in the face. My face also felt a strange burning sensation. What's going on?

  "You don't know what you're talking about." I curled my lip and turned to leave, "Cough, never mind, I'm out of here. Later, I'll have someone take care of the corpse in the hole."

  "For three days, at least come to see me once. I gave you the Lingyuan Golden Elixir. There's no way to avoid fasting." The Fox Immortal said calmly, "If one day I starve to death, then there will be no one to teach you the next magic technique."

  When I heard the fox fairy's words, I was stunned for a moment before reacting. This woman is indeed sinister! No wonder she never wanted to tell me about specific information on magic and cultivation... It turns out that she had been planning to make me her long-term meal ticket all along!

  "I'll go. I come every day to bring you food." Every day, I deliver." I smiled wryly at this woman, who should be called... a seductress.

  "Bring more sliced cakes next time. I like those." Hu Xian instructed me and said.

  "It depends on luck. This thing is not something you can buy every day. Alright, I'll leave first... thanks again, Fox Fairy." As I watched the Fox Fairy gradually disappear into the darkness, I felt a deep sense of desolation. Looking at her waterfall-like long hair and her slender, beautiful body, I was filled with emotion.

  In this world, there are always some mysteries that cannot be explained or seen through.

  The woman in front of me... is her.

  "Don't die on me, Wang Yisheng."

  As I turned to leave, I seemed to hear a faint sigh from behind me. I turned back, but only saw darkness.

  Nothing else but this.

  I took a deep breath, turned around and walked out of the passage, all the way to the wellhead where I found the rope to climb up.

  But just as I crawled out of the well, I saw two car headlights shining brightly from the front, flashing and flashing, the strong white light made me unable to open my eyes.

  Damn it, apart from Old Liu and Zhou Qin, there is actually a third person!

  Got it!
