Chapter 82 Sophistry, Tiandou City
Lin Xiang did not do anything to the knights and civil servants, because it was not time yet and he wanted to maximize the effectiveness of the medicine on them.
So he just chatted with the two of them, took some medication to stabilize his mood, and went about his own business.
Organize experimental data, prepare drugs, and deduce the follow-up of methods...
The knights and civil servants watched Lin Xiang work and were surprised to find that Lin Xiang was very calm from beginning to end. He was no different from the patient doctor in the medical clinic in the past. For him, studying the life-eating evil method was no different from ordinary medical prescriptions. .
"Schisandra...phoenix grass..."
Lin Xiang pondered the properties of the medicinal materials and muttered something. Combined with medicinal materials, the effects of human body parts can be maximized.
"He doesn't look crazy," the civil servant said of the knight.
Under the influence of the drug, the knight's expression was relaxed, but his reason told him that he should be serious at this time, "It's so crazy that it looks normal."
"I need to correct a little mistake of yours. I'm just doing what I think I should do. Why do I think I'm crazy in your eyes?" Lin Xiang put down his notes and said to the two of them.
"You study how to eat people and you still think you're not crazy?" the civil servant quipped.
"What counts as cannibalism?"
"Does causing death count as cannibalism? If that's the case, don't nobles and businessmen eat people?"
"Just by adjusting policies and changing prices, you can force countless families to die. How many people can a person who practices the life-devouring method eat in his lifetime? It's just a drop in the bucket of those who died because of tyranny."
The civil servant said disdainfully: "It's just sophistry. How can the implementation of a policy start from the beginning, and treat us as decoration? And any policy has advantages and disadvantages. If you only see the disadvantages, why can't you see how many people benefit from it!"
"Do those who suffer because of this deserve it?"
The civil servant said seriously, "Nothing is perfect. And if they suffer from one policy, they will naturally benefit from another policy. It would be too greedy to only see what you lose and not what you gain!"
The knight helped, "The Empire Dogs are right. As for the merchants' excessive pricing of dog things you said, the Empire Dogs have done a good job in this regard."
Lin Xiang exhaled the turbid air in his chest, "What you said makes sense."
The knight and the civil servant were stunned.
——So easily convinced?
"But I won't change it." Lin Xiang said, "If the experiment that has already been started is abandoned halfway, neither I nor the dead will be able to accept it."
His eyes were as firm as a great man's.
"Disgusting!" the civil servant said coldly.
"Whatever you say, I didn't develop this method just for others to understand me."
"Pretending to be a noble person, he is actually a selfish lunatic who is moved by himself." The civil servant stood up and glared.
Lin Xiang nodded, "Everything you said is right."
"Aren't you afraid that the innocent souls who died because of you will come to claim their lives?"
"Come if you can. I'm curious if ghosts can eat it."
The civil servant continued to scold, and the knight occasionally helped, but Lin Xiang remained unmoved.
Just like a ball of cotton, no matter how you suppress him, it will not have any impact on him.
They talked like this for half the night. The knight and the civil servant were drowsy under the influence of the drugs, but they still continued to deal with the forest elephant.
Seeing that they were tired, Lin Xiang kindly gave them some sleeping pills.
——It’s finally quiet.
Lin Xiang sighed in his heart.
"As expected of a completely brainwashed lackey!"
A flash of silver light.
Move instantly, use the six moves to connect Qi and blood - hit the lower abdomen with a finger gun to inflict severe injuries, connect mycelium into the body to limit soul power, connect soul guide chains to restrain movement.
"Stooges? I think they have their own thoughts." Chi Ping said calmly with a combo of moves to subdue Lin Xiang.
…
They meet every two months, which determines that the distance between Lin Xiang and Shi Fei will not be too far.
Using spatial resonance perception, it is not particularly difficult for Chi Ping to find Lin Xiang.
Although the life-eating method is new, it is still considered a relatively complete method. Lin Xiang, the creator of the method, will naturally practice it.
By devouring other people's bodies and cultivations, you will be infected with the other person's aura, just like absorbing a soul ring will be infected with the aura of a soul beast.
If humans are regarded as a kind of soul beast that cannot produce soul rings, the remaining aura will be similar.
When interrogating Shi Fei, Chi Ping remembered the mixed aura on his body and used it as a comparison to search. Chi Ping could easily find Lin Xiang.
…
With ultra-long-distance perception and teleportation, Chi Ping may be considered one of the strongest assassins in the world.
Soul masters without special abilities were basically unable to block Chi Ping's surprise attack.
Before Lin Xiang could react, Chi Ping had already used mycelium to penetrate into his body to restrict the flow of soul power, and locked his body with soul guidance chains.
"Who are you?"
The pain of being punctured in the abdomen gradually eased. Lin Xiang stopped struggling after discovering that his soul power was constantly draining and that whenever he activated his soul power, he felt severe pain all over his body. He calmly looked at Chi Ping's confused words.
"Me? I'm almost like the two of them. I stumbled upon your experimental subject, followed the clues to find you, and wanted to kill your good Samaritan."
Lin Xiang became even more confused.
"Are you investigating me? When?"
He had no idea when Chi Ping investigated him.
"I want you to know what we call a secret investigation." Chi Ping said calmly, "Okay. I heard you and them talk so much before, and I know a little bit about you. I'm going to kill you now. , destroy all your research data, and then kill everyone who has used the life-eating method. Any last words?"
Chi Ping's expression was too calm, as if he was about to kill a chicken rather than a person.
Lin Xiang knew as soon as he heard that Chi Ping would not be affected, and now it was probably just a casual comment for him to leave his last words.
"The life-eating method can allow people who cannot practice to become soul masters. If I continue to study, it may even allow soul masters to break through the bottleneck. You will have descendants, and your descendants will not necessarily become soul masters. If you don't have enough talent, as long as you don't kill me, I can give you all my research. If you master the life-eating method, you can even establish a force that will never decline and be passed down forever!"
Faced with life and death, Lin Xiang still spoke clearly.
He knew that this was his only chance to survive, and he could survive as long as Chi Ping wavered in the slightest.
"Future generations will be blessed."
After one sentence, the palm falls and the person dies.
The next day, the news of Mr. Lin's death spread throughout the city, and the knights and civil servants returned to Wuhun Hall and the City Lord's Mansion in confusion.
The basement where the two were imprisoned was empty.
One month later, everyone related to the life-eating method died.
…
In February 2649 of the Douluo Calendar, there were still two years left before the five-year appointment. Chi Ping returned to Tiandou City after being away for a year and a half, reaching level 64 in cultivation.
Entering the city in its original appearance, Chi Ping came to the Prince's Mansion.
"Butler, please let me know that Chi Ping is visiting."
