"Illusions, all illusions, all this is my imagination!"
"Why are you crying? Do you think you will make me believe it if you cry?"
"This world is fake, fake!"
"I don't know when I will get better. I really have had enough."
"If this continues, I'm afraid I will really become mentally ill."
"I don't want to take those medicines! I don't take them! I'm not sick! Everything I said was false!"
“It’s fake!!!”
Jiang Che, who was taking a nap on the roadside, suddenly woke up.
The ward, sister, pills, and doctor all disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Instead, there is Rongcheng, which is being slowly eroded by the strange realm.
"Big dog, are you having nightmares again?"
Xiao Meng squatted next to Jiang Che, dragging his chin with his hands, pinching his swollen cheeks very comfortably.
Jiang Che wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and asked, "Just now...did I talk to myself again?"
"Yeah!~"
Jiang Che stood up and patted the dust on his body pretendingly. After all, those blood stains could not be cleaned off.
Along the way, there was a mysterious stain of blood, including Jiang Che's own, as well as those of the challengers who were seriously injured or sacrificed.
Jiang Che looked at Xiaoman who was standing guard not far away and asked, "What's going on?"
Xiaoman shook the helmet on his neck and shoulders and said: "There is no special abnormality. As long as Xiaomeng and I are here, no one below S level dares to get close."
It's just right to have these two girls... Jiang Che sighed silently in his heart.
Jiang Che nodded and said: "Then continue on your way, we should be there soon."
"Won't you sleep a little longer?" Xiaoman asked.
Jiang Che: "No."
Xiaoman: "You fight too frequently, and you have been using the Ash of the Fairy to overdraw your body. If you don't recover properly, if there is a high-intensity battle on Hong Ling's side, you will not be able to bear it."
"..."
Jiang Che hesitated for a while, but finally said: "It's okay, I've already slept."
"That's fine, it's up to you." Xiaoman responded.
Then, Xiaomeng yawned and went back to Zhutian Prison to rest on the excuse that he hadn't finished his homework yet.
Xiaoman, on the other hand, still stayed outside, accompanying Jiang Che.
Regroup and set off.
Jiang Che asked: "By the way, Xiaoman, have you seen the Yin Yang Ghost Sword?"
Xiaoman put his hands behind his back, walked side by side with Jiang Che, and said, "Is that the knife Yan Yibing left for you? I've already seen it, and I've 'fed' all the forbidden items you said you had through alchemy."
Give me this knife."
"So the current situation with the Ghost Sword..."
Xiaoman: "Although this knife is now an S-level forbidden item, it fell from a higher level. If I guessed correctly, this knife should have been a taboo-level forbidden item. Even if it is not taboo, it is at least accurate.
Taboo.”
"The main reason why this knife dropped in level is because the sword spirit of this knife was damaged."
"The effect of using ordinary forbidden objects to repair them will not be ideal. If you want to repair this type of forbidden objects, you must find forbidden objects that also have self-consciousness."
Jiang Che nodded, and then asked: "What about these forbidden items..."
"Only forbidden objects of at least S level and above can give birth to spiritual intelligence. In fact, according to your definition of mystery, forbidden objects that give birth to spiritual consciousness should not be called forbidden objects. They are considered a kind of mystery."
"After all, your definition is that things with self-awareness are collectively called mysterious."
Jiang Che: "It sounds like it's hard to find this kind of forbidden items."
Xiaoman reached out and patted Jiang Che's shoulder, raised his helmet, and said: "Young man, be more confident and remove the word "like"."
Jiang Che: "..."
At this moment, the eerie old voice appeared without warning.
"What's so difficult about this?"
"What's so difficult about this?"
"To become an immortal, every gesture is a blessing."
"Immortals turn stones into gold, control animals and creatures, and all spiritual things are nothing more than inferior mortal weapons!"
"Become an immortal, become an immortal, you can have as many of these things as you want!"
"I told you I'm not an immortal!" Jiang Che suddenly yelled. He was really annoyed by the voice.
Just like when you are going to sleep, a fly keeps buzzing around you.
"Buzzing" all day long, without any regard for whether others can bear it or not.
However, this voice came from Jiang Che himself. No matter how strong his mental power was, and no matter how much help Xiaoman tried, he could not isolate these voices.
Moreover, both Xiaoman and Xiaomeng heard it, but no one else could. Only Jiang Che could hear it.
Seeing Jiang Che suddenly say this, Xiaoman, who had just relaxed a little, immediately became alert again.
Jiang Che stopped and looked a little crazy.
"Shut up, shut up, okay?"
"I'm not an immortal, and I don't have the Tao, so shut up!"
"I can't... what? Your cave?"
"What's in your cave?"
"Really? There is also a pill to bring the dead back to life? No, you must be lying to me, you are deceiving me."
"Okay, then tell me, where is your cave?"
"Haha... I knew you were lying to me!"
"How can there be a place like the one you mentioned? Unless it is a mysterious world, there is no such place in the real world."
"In the mysterious world?"
"..."
"As long as I become an immortal, will you tell me the specific location?"
"Jiang Che..." Xiaoman called out.
Jiang Che waved his hand to Xiaoman and said, "I'm fine, I'm awake, don't worry."
Xiaoman: "But..."
Jiang Che: "Shh, I'm just trying to trick him."
Xiaoman: "..."
Jiang Che began to talk to himself in the air.
"You said that you need to find your own way to become an immortal, but I never know what my own way is. I only know Yin...Oh, I can't say this."
"Hmm, yes, it's too vulgar to say this, and it will also get you cheated."
"I can't find my way for a while, why don't you tell me the specific location of the cave first?"
"You can completely trust me, Jiang Che, on this point."
"There's really nothing to talk about?"
"Then tell me how to find your own way."
"my wish?"
"my wish……"
"Would it be too vulgar if I said that I hope to have endless glory and wealth and endless beauties?"
"This is okay? Then what kind of Tao is this?"
"The Way of Desire?"
"Okay, I'll give it a try, but can we discuss something?"
"Can you come out suddenly and make me an immortal if you have nothing to do?"
"Isn't this something that can only be done slowly and gradually?"
"Tell me the location of the cave first. Anyway, I won't go to the mysterious world now. I'll find my way first."
"This is reasonable and fair, how about it?"
"Okay, you say..."
After a while, the smile on Jiang Che's face grew stronger.
Xiaoman: "Jiang Che...are you okay?"
Jiang Che looked at Xiaoman and said with a smile: "I asked about the location of the strange fairy cave. He said that there is an elixir for bringing the dead back to life. Of course, after the wild dog learns the magic of heaven, it doesn't matter whether he wants this thing or not.
I just have a backup plan."
"It's so funny, he thought I would really listen to him and become an immortal."
