Chapter 1036: The Yin Soldiers Pass Through
From the first day of acting, the director told him that the play is the play, and you are you.
You can be a hysterical madman in the play, but in the real world, you are still a polite and modest gentleman.
Su Yi felt that he had done it. In "The Sound of the Wind", he pulled whenever he was told, but he would never do that in real life; in "The Republic of China Jianghu", he was bold and his hands were stained with blood, but he would not do that in real life.
He also became a big boss in Hong Kong Island and killed people and turned the table at every turn. In the world of Xiaoao, he even fought with Dongfang Bubai...
In short, Su Yi felt that he was a good actor.
But he still had never played a role without bottom line.
He would not force women, kill innocent old and young women and children, and would not break the bottom line to achieve his goals.
The director told Su Yi that this was wrong.
But what is right?
What is wrong?
After all, this is not real acting, but experiencing a period of life.
On the stage, actors kill, set fire, force and torture, but that is just pretending, it is fake.
But if Su Yi plays such a role, he has to do it for real. He has to kill people for real, be really strong, and the victims are all living people with flesh and blood.
He can't do these.
He can't convince himself that these people are NPCs, and then kill them all and do all kinds of evil.
But Su Yi has a hunch that he may encounter such a choice sooner or later.
Just like this time.
The performance task conflicts with his bottom line.
In order to complete the performance task, he must sit back and watch Ajiu kill people and do evil.
If he chooses to stick to the bottom line, his performance task will be ruined.
He must choose whether to sacrifice a person who has nothing to do with him to complete the task; or stick to the so-called bottom line and pay a huge price?
Su Yi has never been a soft-hearted person, and he never claims to be a good person. If something is within his moral acceptance, he will do whatever it takes.
He doesn't have any moral cleanliness, only his own principles and his own preferences.
The reason why he has been hesitant about Uncle Dong is because he feels that he seems to have stepped on the ambiguous dividing line of his principle bottom line in this matter.
In comparison, Xiao Bai and A Juan might be hurt, so they were protected by Su Yi. Even without the catalysis of the boy's blood, it is very likely that the zombies formed by Uncle Dong will not meet the mission standards, but Su Yi did not hesitate.
Because these two things completely broke Su Yi's bottom line, he would rather find another way to complete the task, no matter how troublesome it is, he would not let these two people suffer.
Uncle Dong...
I don't know who said that when the coin falls, you will know which side you want.
Su Yi is now sure that he can't be a very bad person.
He still doesn't want Uncle Dong to die.
He used Uncle Dong's death to figure out his true bottom line.
The coin he threw high in his heart finally landed.
The entanglement and swaying that have always existed since he came to this world disappeared at this moment. Su Yi's mentality is clear and there is no more distraction.
Guilt?
Of course not, whether to save people is Su Yi's own business, and he will not feel guilty about anyone for this. Uncle Dong didn't die because of him, nor did he kill him, so he wouldn't feel guilty about it.
Regret?
If Su Yi could choose again, he would definitely not sit back and watch.
But that was something he would have the chance to choose again.
The reality was a foregone conclusion, Su Yi just asked his heart clearly and then moved on.
Uncle Dong's home.
Ajiu put Uncle Dong's body in the bathtub with great effort, and he sat on the ground with sweat all over his head, gasping for air and coughing constantly.
Aunt Mei stared at this scene blankly, as if she had lost her soul, without any reaction.
The man who had spent his whole life with her now lay in front of her, his body no longer had any temperature.
A piece of his skull was broken, the brain inside had leaked out, half of his face was gone, and the gums mixed with blood were exposed, looking particularly hideous.
It must be very painful, right?
Aunt Mei clenched her fists, her nails deeply embedded in her flesh.
The master usually screamed in pain when being pricked by a needle, and now he was so badly injured, how painful must he be?
She couldn't believe that her husband had left her so suddenly.
In such a cruel way.
No goodbye, no signs.
She knew that death was something she had to face sooner or later, but she couldn't accept such a death.
The master had never done anything bad in his life except for a foul mouth, why did he have such a tragic ending?
Why?
She couldn't figure it out, her heart was bleeding.
"Cough cough cough..." Ah Jiu panted, raised her head and looked at Aunt Mei, "Have you thought about it?"
Aunt Mei came back to her senses and looked at Ah Jiu, and her heart suddenly became firm.
"What should I do?" Aunt Mei asked.
"The dead cannot be resurrected, cough cough... Refining corpses to revive is against the will of heaven. If you do this, you will be severely punished in the underworld in the future, cough cough cough..." Ah Jiu said while coughing and staring into Aunt Mei's eyes.
Aunt Mei looked at Ah Jiu. She had lived for most of her life. What couldn't she see clearly?
This Ah Jiu had something on his mind, maybe he had other intentions, maybe he was deceiving her.
But she didn't care about that anymore.
She just wanted her husband to come back, even if it was a corpse, even if she would be deceived.
But even if there was only a one in ten thousand chance, she wanted to try.
"What should I do?" Aunt Mei asked repeatedly in a mechanical voice.
"Go dig the soil. Before dawn, dig enough soil to cover Brother Dong's body." Ah Jiu's eyes flashed with strange colors, "This way there is no need to dig a hole to bury the body. Ahem..."
"I will first restore Brother Dong's appearance, then use medicine to prevent his body from rotting, and then use magic to draw talismans to allow Brother Dong to absorb the extremely yin energy."
At this point, Ah Jiu coughed violently again, and then said: "Sister-in-law Mei, this matter... is harmful to Tianhe, and cannot be known to anyone. Once outsiders find out, I will never help you again, Brother Dong." You can never come back, do you understand?"
Aunt Mei looked at Ah Jiu blankly and said, "I will listen to you."
Ah Jiu nodded with satisfaction, coughed twice and said: "Okay, then let's divide the troops into two groups. You will dig the soil, and I will prepare the things. Tomorrow night I will take the fragrant cedar coffin with the heaviest yin energy to seal Brother Dong's body. The body, seven days later, when Brother Dong returns to his soul for the first seven days, you will be able to see him..."
It’s hard to imagine that Aunt Mei spent the next two hours digging twelve bags of soil from the back hill, went upstairs, and buried Uncle Dong’s body in her bathtub.
Ah Jiu also mended and repaired Uncle Dong's body during this period, and smeared a special powder all over his body.
After the two of them worked together to bury Uncle Dong in the bathtub, Ah Jiu used a piece of purple talisman paper that had been drawn long ago and pasted it on Uncle Dong's forehead.
Suddenly, the whole room became much colder.
"Cough cough cough..." Ah Jiu suddenly coughed violently again.
He took out a pocket watch and looked at the time, his expression suddenly changed, and he hurriedly said to Aunt Mei: "Starting from tomorrow, kill a crow every morning and evening, and smear the blood on his seven orifices and chest. Cough cough cough... tomorrow I will come to you again in the evening, remember, don’t let anyone know..."
After saying that, Ah Jiu coughed violently and left in a hurry.
As soon as he went out, Ah Jiu looked around cautiously, with a look of fear in his eyes. He hurriedly ran towards the elevator.
After hurried back to his home, Ah Jiu grabbed a black bell by the door and shook it vigorously without saying a word, and rushed to the bedroom madly.
There was actually an extremely strange magic circle arranged in his bedroom. In the center of the magic circle was an upright coffin with runes painted on all sides.
His left hand kept ringing the bell, and his right hand picked up a small clay pot next to the coffin, opened it, and poured some waxy viscous liquid into the palm of his hand.
This liquid smelled foul, but it was actually the body oil of the child's corpse.
All the bodies of the children he killed were sent to the crematorium for sparks, and all the refined corpse oil was collected by him.
Hee hee hee...
Woo woo woo...
Eight or nine little ghosts covered their ears and rushed into the magic circle from all directions with pain on their faces, rushing straight into Ah Jiu's body.
The skin all over his body suddenly showed the grimaces, hand and foot marks of many children.
Ah Jiu had a look of pain on his face, and smeared the corpse oil on his face with trembling hands, then picked up the small clay pot, poured a large mouthful into his mouth, and held it in his mouth.
Then he walked into the coffin covered with runes and closed the lid.
The whole world suddenly became quiet.
Ah Jiu seemed to have even lost his breath.
This room looked like an abandoned house that no one had ever lived in, without any trace of popularity.
clang clang clang...
clang clang clang...
Almost at the same time, the urgent bell rang throughout the twenty-fourth floor.
Su Yi, who was meditating in the living room, suddenly opened his eyes.
Along with the ringing, Su Yi also heard Yang Feng's hurried shouting: "Xiaobai...Xiaobai..."
Looking at the time, it was already 3:14 in the morning.
Su Yi frowned slightly, stood up and opened the door.
Yang Feng, who had almost reached Su Yi's door, was startled. She shivered and took a few steps back, trembling and not daring to come near.
Su Yi knew that she could see the twin female ghosts in 2442, so she closed the door.
"Xiaobai is at my place." Su Yi said to her, "He said he couldn't find you, so he came to my place."
Yang Feng was still very scared and did not dare to look at Su Yi. She said in a trembling voice: "They are coming! They are coming soon!"
"Who?" Su Yi was startled, and his nerves suddenly became tense.
"It's coming, it's coming..." Yang Feng's face was full of fear, and the struggle became more intense, "Lean, lean against the wall! Don't look! Don't look! Don't…"
She trembled and hugged her head, pressing her body tightly against the wall.
Sizzling...
Suddenly, the dim lights in the corridor became bright and dim, flickering erratically.
Great fear surged toward Su Yi. Su Yi suddenly felt as cold as if he had fallen into an ice cave!
He only felt that his limbs were stiff, even the blood seemed to be solidified in his blood vessels, and his heartbeat suddenly became extremely slow at this moment!
He let out a breath, and there was actually a white mist, and his whole body was instantly covered with goosebumps. On his forehead and back of his neck, ice-cold water droplets like dewdrops first oozed out, and then condensed into a thin layer of water. Frost!
This is incredible!
Su Yi's energy and blood were as strong as a furnace, not to mention that he also had internal energy to protect his body.
But now, all the energy and blood in his body was almost frozen!
Su Yi's eyelids twitched, and he looked back suddenly as if he felt something!
Then his eyes widened, and unspeakable fear and horror filled his heart for an instant!
What did he see?
He saw four three-meter-tall, inhuman-like creatures staggering from the end of the corridor towards this side!
They were wearing strange clothes, robes and long gowns, colorful and colorful, and looked indescribably strange.
It was like paper-made clothes.
From their calves down, they were all blocked by rolling gray fog, and their feet could not be seen clearly, but they could vaguely hear the sound of iron chains dragging and the sharp sound of knife tips scraping on iron plates.
They all wore strange cloaks, covering their heads and faces tightly.
They all held tattered paper umbrellas.
Su Yi couldn't see their hands clearly, because their hands were all tucked into their wide sleeves.
But after a quick look, Su Yi instantly felt that some of his blood and qi evaporated instantly, and his head was hit hard as if by a heavy hammer, and he suddenly saw stars and felt dizzy.
He felt that his spirit seemed to be pulled by something, as if it was about to fly out of his body!
Su Yi was horrified and almost closed his eyes immediately.
The feeling of dizziness and loss of soul disappeared instantly, and Su Yi hurriedly took a step back, letting his body stick tightly to the wall.
He didn't dare to move, didn't dare to open his eyes, and didn't even dare to breathe!
A strong sense of crisis filled Su Yi's heart. He had a premonition that even if he did nothing, just opened his eyes and looked, he would be dead!
Zizi, Zizi...
The sound of the electric current was particularly clear.
Hula...
The sound of the iron chain sliding was getting closer and closer.
And the harsh metal friction sound made Su Yi's teeth ache and his whole body uncomfortable.
Su Yi was reciting the Huangting Sutra in his heart. Gradually, he entered a state of silence and calmed down completely.
But his senses were still very clear.
He felt his body getting colder and colder, and his hands, feet, nose and ears were even a little painful from the cold, as if he was in a bad snowy day with a temperature of more than 30 degrees below zero.
Closer!
Closer!
Su Yi had never felt so close to death, nor had he ever felt such great oppression and fear.
He felt that a very cold and evil thing seemed to be staring at him, from top to bottom, not letting go of an inch.
Wherever this thing's gaze passed, it was like a steel knife scraping bones, like a needle piercing fire!
He forced himself not to react.
He closed his eyes tightly, not daring to open them at all.
Clang.
The sound of the sliding chain sounded right in front of Su Yi.
These four things have walked in front of Su Yi!
Suddenly, all the sounds stopped!
The whole world suddenly fell into silence!
They stopped!
