Chapter 1415 Promise
"This time is the last time. As long as you complete the mission, you will be free. You can go wherever you want." Lu Qin looked at him and said seriously.
Shaotong showed a longing expression, and after a long while he exhaled, "My ability to copy that woman is already at my limit. I can't maintain it for long. I can spy on a person's memory and modify it... It’s a really good ability, but you are too greedy and want me to inherit Jiang Cheng’s body.”
"Since that person said it is possible, it must be possible. There is no doubt about this. Jiangcheng is the source of all evil. We will destroy his spirit, and then you will take advantage of it and inherit his body. All of this will It's within the plan." Lu Qin tried his best to reassure him that Shaotong's mental state was not stable, and he was the top priority of this plan.
"Let me ask a question. After the plan was successful, I read most of the memories belonging to Jiang Cheng and inherited his body. So... am I still me? Or... have I become Jiang Cheng?" Shao Tong leaned forward and looked at Lu Qin with interest, seeming to be very interested in this point.
Lu Qin frowned, "What, is this important?"
"Of course, if I am still me, then the agreement between us may still be valid. If you think that I am no longer I, but the guy named Jiang Cheng..." Shaotong paused, the corners of his mouth raised, "Is the agreement between us still valid? "Jiangcheng is the source of all evil. Will you let me go?"
The words are a bit convoluted, but it is not difficult to understand. Lu Qin immediately nodded with a serious expression, "The promise is of course effective, I am." The promise given on behalf of the Night Watchman, with that person’s status, it is impossible for him to break his promise.”
Shaotong patted his face as if he was a whole person. They all relaxed, "Now that I'm relieved, I will clear out everyone in the mission as agreed between us, and I will infiltrate Jiang Cheng's memory bit by bit until I completely replace him."
Hearing what Shaotong said, Lu Qin's tense expression finally relaxed, and he said slowly: "We can definitely achieve this if we cooperate with each other. , but one thing you have to pay attention to is that Jiang Cheng is different from the others. He has been penetrated into his memory many times before, and it will be repeated every once in a while. It was done by the woman whose ability you copied, so Jiang Cheng has This ability already has a certain degree of resistance, so you have to be extra careful, he is very vigilant, and don’t let him discover any flaws.”
"This is nature, we are grasshoppers on a rope."
After saying this, Shaotong grabbed his phone again and looked at the time on it. The night was getting deeper and deeper, and according to the The plan is that at midnight tonight, Wang Fugui will put on the wrong pair of shoes and walk on the Yinqiao.
......
Stop the bleeding, apply medicine, wipe the grave soil... Everyone in the room was busy nervously. Zhang Qizheng couldn't help but look at the fat man with admiration. Even after suffering such pain, the fat man He endured it until the veins on his forehead stretched and cold sweat broke out, but he gritted his teeth and remained silent. In the end, he actually comforted Yao, Shun, Yu and others in Jiangcheng.
The cloth on the cushion was dyed red by the blood that had flowed out. The ground was stained with blood, and there was a pungent smell of blood in the nose. In the ghost house, this scene made people instinctively feel uncomfortable.
The time was coming, and the whole Marquis Mansion was quiet. Li Bai brought a paper lantern. Inside the lantern was a candle. The candle exuded orange light. Then Zhu Jie very preciously poured out three sticks of incense from a tube. "These three incense sticks were obtained from the shopkeeper of the paper shop. Come, take it out and dry it after being buried in the cemetery for a long time. After lighting it, you can take it with you on the road."
Jiang Cheng seemed to have noticed the trick and asked: "Soul-inducing incense?"
Tang Qisheng nodded, "There is such a saying, but it's all According to the old calendar, people walking on the Yin Bridge cannot remember the time, so the ancients set the limit of the length of the incense and must come back before the incense burns out."
After applying the medicinal powder of Li Bai, I felt violently. The pain was relieved a lot, and the fat man gasped and asked: "If...if What will happen if you don't come back before the incense burns out? "
"Then you will be lost on the bridge forever, and become a lonely ghost like those things," Zhang Qisheng said in a low voice. Didn't mean to scare Fatty, that's how he heard it.
But the fat man obviously discovered new information and couldn't help but open his eyes wide. "What do you mean, on that bridge... there are other things?"
Originally, the fat man thought that as long as Gao Yanqing's innocent soul was removed, The lead across the bridge is over, and the danger mainly comes from Gao Yanqing behind him, but now it seems that the danger is far more than that.
“To tell you the truth, we don’t know what is on the bridge. After all, we have never walked across the Yin Bridge. The risk is very high, but it is also a no-win solution. Next You can only rely on yourself for everything." Tang Qisheng said sincerely, "I can only remind you to move as quickly as possible, go back quickly, you only have three sticks of incense, if you use all the incense. If you don't, then the way back will be cut off."
"Also, there are likely to be various risks on the road, but you have to remember not to get entangled with those things. The most important thing is, absolutely. Your identity as a living person cannot be exposed.”
“Remember, you are a dead person, and you will be a dead person from the moment you step on that bridge!”
The fat man took a deep breath and nodded hard, "I know!"
Everyone stood behind the paper bridge and looked at the fat man. After the fat man said goodbye to everyone, he held a paper lantern in one hand and a paper lantern in the other. He held an incense stick in one hand, and he carefully collected two more sticks. This was all he had.
"Are you ready?" Li Bai asked.
The fat man nodded, his tense face full of determination, "Ready."
Li Bai and Zhu Jie moved almost at the same time. Li Bai placed the copper basin filled with water under the paper bridge. The water basin was equivalent to the Nai River, and the paper bridge spanned it. Zhu Jie used candles to light paper ingots and incense candles as tributes. For a while, the room was enveloped in a strange atmosphere.
Although they couldn't see it, everyone was keenly aware of the sudden drop in temperature nearby, as if something quietly appeared, or the door to another world opened.
"Walking over the Yin Bridge -" Tang Qisheng shouted at the top of his voice, "The dead go on the road, the living turn back!"
This voice sounded far away in the silent night, and the sound was empty. .
After the sound, the fat man raised his bare feet and stepped on the first step of the paper bridge. With the sound of "squeaking", a shocking scene appeared. , this paper bridge that looked very fragile actually supported the weight of the fat man with difficulty. Also in the eyes of everyone, the fat man stepped onto the paper bridge step by step, and then disappeared into the darkness at the other end of the paper bridge. (End of this chapter)
