Mingxi

Chapter 42

Lu Feng observed for a long time, but still failed to open the box, so he could only hand it to Ming Xi, "Tell me, what's inside."

"Before then," Mingxi got up and walked to Jelly, "wake her up first." He stretched out his hand and pressed weakly on Jelly's heart. It's just that it's different from breaking the oath that controlled him. Lu Feng probably couldn't do this, and simply sealed her directly, so Jelly will show her true appearance.Jelly now is almost no different from dying.

"Then let's talk." Seeing Lu Feng's expression, Ming Xi knew that he would not undo the jelly's seal for the time being, so he could only compromise, "In that box is Song Haochu."

Jiang Zichen frowned, "Open it and let me see." It is impossible for a grown man to fit into such a small box.

"I can't open it," Mingxi shook his head and refused, "Only Song Haochu can open it. He will wake up in this box at the moment of his death."

Jiang Zichen suspected that he had heard it wrong, "Say it again?"

Ming Xi sighed, "You heard me right, I know you guys found out that Song Haochu's soul was incomplete, it was made of jelly, she got out of control due to some accident, so she inhaled Song Haochu's soul, which caused his short lifespan, although it didn't look No problem, but his insides are full of holes, the oil is exhausted and the lamp is dry."

"Jelly wants to save him, but no one can do it. He can only keep Song Haochu's soul in the world. As long as he doesn't enter reincarnation, at least he can still live." Regardless of the final outcome.

"How to keep it?" Jiang Zichen asked him. As far as he knew, the soul that has left the body will never return to the body after a certain period of time, and it will really die. Like ice outside, it slowly disappears over time.

Mingxi was at a loss for words, he lowered his eyes and did not look at Jiang Zichen, as if he had something to hide.

"How did you die?" Lu Feng suddenly spoke out in surprise. He ignored Jiang Zichen's gaze and just looked at Mingxi's suddenly dark expression.

Mingxi was silent for a while, then laughed softly, "As you guessed, I died and then resurrected with the body of this puppet. The same is true for jelly. Only our souls are our nourishment, so we can walk freely in the world." He turned his head and looked at Jiang Zichen, his expression was gentle, his eyes were full of apology, "The first time I saw you, I realized that you have very special abilities, so I made a contract with you privately, sorry .”

"What is there to be sorry for?" Jiang Zichen squeezed his left ring finger, "What's the use of this contract." If it is a contract that is harmful to him, it is impossible to succeed. His physique is here, so this contract must be There are other uses.

"It's a recognition of the Lord." Mingxi thought for a while, and said so.

Recognizing...recognizing the Lord is obviously inappropriate, but for some reason, Jiang Zichen felt his face was a little hot, and his blood was also a little hot.

"Strictly speaking, we all have two masters, one is the one who created us, and the other is the one who made the contract. I have been unable to tell you the whole story before, because the oath engraved on my body is the one you broke before. "Now that I said it, the rest is logical, "Before, our previous contract was suppressed, and I failed to find that you came back early, which caused you to find this box. This is not allowed, so, 'He' came, and my consciousness was suppressed during that time. Jelly's situation was even more special. They called her a defective product, because her consciousness was made up of many incomplete souls, and she was very fragile. , she couldn't bear that person's coming, so she was abandoned. In order to survive, she signed a contract with Song Haochu, but Song Haochu is dying, so she needs to find the next contractor." He said, looking at Lu Feng, "If it wasn't because Song Haochu was too weak, Jelly wouldn't be so easy to be sealed by you." Their strength was linked to the contractor, but Song Haochu himself was too ordinary and lost part of his soul, which made Jelly unable to exert its strength.

"How, do you want to make a contract with her? She has very good abilities and can help you a lot." Mingxi smiled and looked at Lu Feng, with a seductive tone in his low voice, "You can drive her as you like, You only need to pay a little bit of anger." For practitioners, it is almost free to get a powerful enslavement.

"Sounds very moving," Lu Feng said, but his expression didn't change a bit. It's not for charity. How can anyone make these dolls that can let dead souls move freely just to give to others.

"Of course there is a little risk." Ming Xi didn't deny it, and continued, "The longer the time passes, the more ghouls are ingested, and the memory will become more chaotic. There is only one final result, losing oneself and eating back at the master "As he said, he looked at Jiang Zichen, "But, you don't have to worry, the moment I lose control, our contract will be broken by you unilaterally. That's why I said, you have very special talents .”

"Since there are such consequences," Jiang Zichen couldn't accept it, "Why do you have to stay here?" The dead should follow the laws of the world, enter reincarnation, and start the next life. Anyone who interferes with this law is a heretic , should be purged, "Are you forced?" There was hope in his eyes, and he hoped that Mingxi could tell him that this was not his own choice.

"Even if it was forced," Lu Feng ruthlessly broke his self-deception without waiting for Ming Xi to answer, "The souls he took away created more dolls, and they were also accomplices, and they were also forced of."

Mingxi avoided Jiang Zichen's gaze and nodded, "That's right, collecting souls is my job."

Jiang Zichen looked at Mingxi's side face, his expression was in a trance, he thought uncontrollably, the skin in front of him is fake, is the soul under the skin really Mingxi, the person he likes really exists Or is it just a deliberate disguise to deceive him.

"Why did he do such a thing." Lu Feng glanced at the shocked Jiang Zichen, and continued to ask.Whether it is to make this kind of pottery figurines that can carry the soul, or to process the soul, it is not easy to do, not only money, materials, but more importantly, talent and effort. This is not the assembly line processing of the factory , you can copy thousands of copies casually.He could guess that although a large number of souls were collected, there must not be many actual finished products.

Mingxi pursed his lips and glanced at Jiang Zichen, "Do you still remember the memory before you were nine years old?"
