Chapter 103 The Great Good Man
With the power of distortion, it merged into Jiang Lei's body.
Contrary to Xu Ke's expectation, Jiang Lei's body did not explode into a puddle of flesh, nor did it grow seven or eight hands or eyes all over its body.
Jiang Lei's body gradually became transparent.
At first it was just difficult to identify, but towards the end, it developed to the point where even Xu Ke could no longer visually observe Jiang Lei.
Jiang Lei's movements and position can only be detected through the fluctuation of breath.
At this time Jiang Lei seemed to feel fear and wanted to ask Xu Ke how the situation was going.
But from Xu Ke’s perspective, it sounded like a whisper heard in a dream.
You can obviously hear every sentence and word of the other party, but your brain cannot understand the content of these words and cannot remember them in your mind.
Even Jiang Lei wanted to communicate by touching things and leaving marks.
The result is either penetrating through the objects, or just like magnets repelling each other, the objects are directly bounced away.
This is the first time Xu Ke has seen this weird state.
Rather than being deformed, it is more like transforming into a real ghost.
"Wait a minute... The death of a ghost is a ghost, the death of a ghost is a hope, and the death of a hope is a disaster. The hope is silent, and the disaster is invisible."
Xu Ke suddenly thought that it might be his own spiritual sense. Not high enough, so he couldn't see Jiang Lei deeper in the distorted world.
After thinking for a moment, Xu Ke went directly to another residence in the place of great danger.
I saw the appearance of being married, having children, and living a peaceful life.
The special thing about Fang Mao is that his spiritual awareness is too high, which causes him to often see terrifying existences that ordinary people cannot detect.
But with the help of the special existence of the dangerous place, Xu Ke helped Fang Mao dispel the invasion of most of the evil things.
As a result, he finally returned to a quiet life, enjoying himself every day and refusing to leave the scope of the dangerous place.
Looking back now, Fang Maang's situation was similar to Li Sian's.
Xu Ke asked Ni Qianmian to appear in front of Fang Mang, blocking his subconscious gratitude, and took him to the place where Jiang Lei disappeared, and then asked him:
"You Can you see an invisible and silent thing here?"
Fang Maang hesitated for a moment and pointed at Jiang Lei's position with fear.
"It's Miss Jiang...how did she become that evil thing?"
Regarding the knowledge between aberrations and strange evil objects, Xu Ke himself only knew a little about it and could not explain it thoroughly.
But thanks to Fang Maang’s extraordinary spiritual awareness, Xu Ke was finally able to communicate normally with Jiang Lei through Fang Maang.
"So tired..."
Just after Xu Ke said a few words, he found that what he said needed Ni Qianmian as a cover to tell the appearance.
Fang Maang also needed to repeat what he heard from Jiang Lei.
It was as if two aliens were communicating through an interpreter.
But anyway, after a brief exchange, Jiang Lei finally went to Li Sian's room under the guidance of Xu Ke.
Now is the most critical stage of the experiment. If Li Si'an also cannot see Jiang Lei, or if Jiang Lei is a more terrifying and evil existence in his eyes, then he will really lose his wife and lose his troops. All the work in vain.
Fortunately, everything did not develop to the worst.
As Jiang Lei felt uneasy, hesitantly walked through the wall and entered the room.
Li Sian, who was already as frightened as a bird, suddenly roared:
"Who!"
Before he finished speaking, Li Sian suddenly widened his eyes in shock.
Because in his eyes Jiang Lei no longer looked hideous, terrifying, disgusting and twisted.
On the contrary, the true nature of human beings has been restored, and it has become more colorful and full of extremely holy and kind temperament.
Especially in this weird world full of filth and distortion, Jiang Lei's existence is no less than a salvation for Li Sian.
The two of them got along like this for five or six days, and Li Sian's mental state indeed improved greatly.
But he could not help but be filled with guilt, feeling that it was not worth it for Jiang Lei to sacrifice like this.
But it turned out that Li Sian was too optimistic.
The biggest characteristic of the power of distortion is its variability. Just a few days later, Xu Ke saw the power of distortion in Jiang Lei's body begin to fluctuate violently.
Gradually return from the invisible state to the original physical body.
In Li Si'an's field of vision, he gradually changed back to the same ferocious and terrifying appearance as the others.
Jiang Lei hurriedly left Li Sian's room before she completely changed back to her original shape, and came to the Diling Temple again to ask Xu Ke for help in solving her problem.
"It doesn't matter, the fusion of the distortion power in your body with the physical body has been relatively stable."
"It's just that occasionally there will be some fluctuations due to weather conditions."
The power of distortion is like a tide in Jiang Lei's body. Sometimes when it is strong, it will suddenly turn her into an invisible distortion creature.
Sometimes the decline will allow her to temporarily return to her human state and return to her original Jiang Lei.
Although the process is extremely uncontrollable, it may not be a bad thing.
When she becomes an aberration, let her stay with Li Sian for a while.
When you turn back into a human, you can have your own life and have normal interpersonal interactions with other people.
This reminded Xu Ke of a story he had heard before.
A woman who can transform into a woman marries her husband and says that she will be ugly half the time and beautiful half the time.
Ask your husband if he would rather be a beautiful woman at night when you are with him, or if he would rather be in public during the day.
Obviously, now there is an answer to this question.

"Asking for the Buddha's blessing, believers just want to live a safe and stable life, without having to worry or have trouble sleeping or eating."
"The disciples are willing to offer incense every year and ask the Buddha to protect the believers."
一A middle-aged member in silk satin knelt outside the temple and prayed sincerely for a moment. Then he slowly stood up and motioned to the entourage beside him to put down a silver ingot as incense money.
"I have thanked Huang Yuanwai. Huang Yuanwai has made a lot of merits and will surely have many blessings in the future."
"Thank you, Master."
Huang Shimao responded to the old monk with a smile, and then left the temple with the steward beside him.
But instead of going home, he went to the fish market with great fanfare.
After walking around for a while, we stopped at a fishmonger.
“This is it.”
The housekeeper understood what Huang Shimao meant and immediately bought all the dozen or so fish in the fishmonger’s basket.
Then a master and a servant came to the river bank.
The steward respectfully raised the basket, allowing Huang Shimao to pick up a fish and throw it directly into the river.
Every time he threw a fish, Huang Shimao would say a sentence:
"It's so good, so good, and its merits are immeasurable."
Another fish was thrown directly into the river. "It's so good, so good, and the merits are immeasurable."
"Sir, you are really a well-known good person in our Tianhu County. No wonder you have the blessings you have now. It is really because God has eyes and protects good people."
"Hahaha." Huang Shimao was coaxed by the housekeeper and laughed, twirling his beard:
"Exactly, sir, I cultivate my moral character, do good deeds and accumulate virtue, just for the sake of these four words: good deeds will be rewarded with good deeds."
Actual On the other hand, Huang Shimao was able to accumulate such a big business not by relying on any karma, but all by his own head.
Before he was thirty years old, he relied on stealing and cheating, and even saw passers-by carrying money on their way.
He would secretly harbor evil intentions, use sweat medicine to seek wealth and kill people, and finally accumulated some family fortune.
After he turned thirty, he bribed people from the government and opened a casino.
He also sent people to lend money at casinos at high interest rates. He came out nine times and returned thirteen times. It can be said that he was making money every day and making money.
But when he is now fifty years old, he is already extremely wealthy and enjoys endless delicacies.
But I was always uneasy at home.
Sometimes I dream that something I have done was discovered by someone and was arrested.
Sometimes I dream of people who were poisoned by me coming to claim their lives, or orphans and widowed mothers who were lured by gambling debts and their families were ruined and came to seek revenge.
I don’t know if it’s because he is getting older, but at this time he is becoming more and more worried about the so-called karma.
That’s why in recent years I often go to temples to offer incense and pray, and each time I donate a considerable amount of money for incense.
He also released large quantities of live fish, hares and other creatures into the wild from time to time.
But even so, he still felt frightened and uneasy from time to time.
In fact, in addition to psychological factors, the resentment entangled in him is indeed very considerable.
Even if you die in peace during your lifetime, your soul will most likely be disturbed by resentment and suffer from pain after your death.
As Huang Shimao released the last fish in the basket, a strange stone emitting bright light rolled down the embankment behind.
It just rolled down to Huang Shimao's feet and immediately attracted his attention.
"Huh?"
Huang Shimao can also be said to be well-informed, and the difference between ordinary hard stones and rare gems is naturally clear at a glance.
With just one glance, he could tell that the material of the stone in front of him was extremely special, and it was definitely not the stubborn rocks that could be seen everywhere by the river.
The strange light that circulated in the glance just now was like a precious gem of great value.
Huang Shimao picked up the stone and took the housekeeper up the embankment slope. Sure enough, in a blind spot, he saw a man who died suddenly for unknown reasons.
My eyes were wide-eyed, full of unwillingness and resentment.
There was no trace of injury or blood on his body, and he was leaning slumped beside the tree stump on the roadside.
Looking at his movements and position, Huang Shimao understood that the strange stone rolled out of his hand, and then rolled down the embankment to the two of them.
Looking at how warm and rosy his body was, it was most likely that he had died less than a few moments ago.
"Master, why is there a recently deceased corpse here? It's really unlucky... Let's go report it to the official first."
On the road, he met an unknown corpse that had died long ago, and the corpse happened to die in front of him.
The meanings between the two are completely different.
What if someone happens to be passing by, recognizes the identity and time of death of the corpse, and happens to happen to be passing near the corpse.
Then the two of them, the master and the servant, would not be able to escape even if they jumped into the Yellow River. Even if they broke the sky, they would be involved in a meaningless lawsuit over human lives.
Therefore, the housekeeper wanted to clear the air with someone from the yamen who was familiar with them, so as to avoid any misunderstanding.
Huang Shimao waved his hands subconsciously and said:
"No!"
This exotic stone reveals an alluring look, which has already made Huang Shimao salivate and cannot put it down.
After much thought, he decisively decided to keep the thing secret, so naturally he wanted to conceal the matter of the dead body.
In order to avoid being asked whether the master and servant saw anything on the corpse, the result would be impossible to justify.
The housekeeper didn't say much and followed Huang Shimao away from the scene obediently, making sure that no one saw them on the way out.
Until he returned home, Huang Shimao began to read through various books recording rare and rare stones, looking for what the stone was like.
But after searching and searching, Huang Shimao still couldn't find anything.
Even the concubine he bought a few months ago pestered him to sleep, but he drove him back impatiently, still studying this strange stone without sleep or food.
In the end, Huang Shimao had no choice but to write down the characteristics of the stone.
Then he went to an old expert in jewelry and jade whom he knew well.
I am going to ask him about the material and origin of this exotic stone, and whether I really accidentally picked up some priceless exotic treasure.
When the old expert heard that Huang Shimao had finished talking about the appearance and characteristics of the strange stone, he couldn't help frowning and looked at Huang Shimao with a strange look:
"Huang Yuanwai, this stone Is it your unexpected income? ”
"No, this is the jade I saw in an ancient book a few days ago. Unfortunately, the information behind it was accidentally damaged, so I came to ask you to help me fill in the content related to this object."
The old expert frowned even more when he heard this:
“That shouldn’t be the case. How could that stone be recorded in ancient books?”
“Why, do you really know that strange thing? Shi's fame?" Huang Shimao couldn't help but ask.
“Yes, if nothing else happens, this stone will be the recently famous ‘Da Yuan Stone’.”
"The wish stone?" Huang Shimao had the impression that he heard his servants mention this object in private chats.
But he knew nothing about its specific effects.
The old expert gently twisted his beard:
"I heard rumors that this stone is extremely magical and can fulfill the wishes of the holder, including immortality and resurrection."
"Whether you get a windfall or become strong and healthy, you can fulfill your heart's desires."
"Really?" The greed in Huang Shimao's eyes was about to take shape.
The old expert couldn't help but asked in confusion:
"Why, this is just an anecdote, it cannot be true."
"Besides, there are also rumors. Although this stone can realize wishes, the way it realizes wishes may not be as expected, and may even be self-defeating. "
Huang Shimao was even more disapproving when he heard this.
As long as the wish comes true, it doesn’t matter how you achieve it.
After hearing about the stone, Huang Shimao thanked him, put down the gift of thanks, and left the jade shop directly.
As soon as he returned home, Huang Shimao excitedly took out the wish stone and prepared to make all kinds of wild wishes.
But as he spoke, he suddenly remembered the warning given to him by the old jade expert.
“The way to achieve my wish may not be as I expected?”
Huang Shimao, who felt uneasy, covered the wish stone with a layer of cloth.
He called his concubine and asked her to hold the wish-fulfilling stone wrapped in cloth, and then asked:
"Rumei, do you have any wishes that you want to achieve recently?" ?”
“Wish?” After hearing this, the concubine thought for a while, thinking that Huang Shimao wanted to give her some precious gift.
Then she should think about it carefully...
