Chapter 206 - 206: Today
Xue Zhong was actually plotting in his heart. If he became a wandering wild ghost, it would be a different kind of life. At least it would be more free than being a human. He could go wherever he wanted.
“Hmph, it’s not that simple. Do you think being a ghost is a pleasure?”The little Taotie snorted coldly. If it was really that good, then wouldn’t everyone be eager to become a ghost after death?
Fu Xian tapped the little Taotie’s head lightly.””Speak properly! ”
Although the Taotie was more than a hundred years old and had probably lived longer than his life, looking at the little Taotie’s size, Fu Xian could not help but have the illusion that he was educating a child.
How could he raise a child before even getting a girlfriend?! Fu Xianran sighed in his heart.
“Alright, alright, alright!” The little Taotie clenched his fists and endured it.
This was his only employer. If he changed his employer again, he would have to add to his sentence!
‘ Regardless of whether it’s man-made or formed naturally, ghosts and monsters will gradually lose their self-consciousness over time. It won’t be long before they can only remember what they’re most obsessed with. All other emotions and memories of the past will be lost. “Ming Ze ignored the two of them and explained, “Can an existence without self-awareness still be called alive?”
“Ah… I see.” If Xue Zhong was distracted for a moment, would he remember his yearning for freedom or his obsession with ice cream?
‘ Besides, there’s another possibility in your situation,” the little Taotie added,””That is, the moment you remember the process of your death, you will turn into an evil ghost that has lost your mind. Then, in order to prevent you from harming the world, I will reluctantly swallow you.”
“Swallowed it in one gulp?” Xue Zhong was a little confused. Speaking of which, I don’t seem to know…What are you? He doesn’t look like a human.”
After he woke up, he was so focused on the abnormality in his body that he had forgotten that these people did not seem to be ordinary people when they met yesterday.
The little Taotie was stunned by a rare question. Even the hand holding the chopsticks stopped for a moment.” You don’t know?! I am Taotie! Taotie!” Where did this guy come from? How could he be so heartless? Back then, he had revealed a little of his true form in front of this person.
“Wow, Taotie!” Xue Zhong’s eyes lit up. He knew that his life would be exciting these few days, but he did not expect it to be so exciting. He could even see the legendary divine beast!
Shouldn’t he be shocked when he heard Taotie? A berserk beast! He was a beast! The little Taotie was displeased by Xue Zhong’s sparkling eyes and gloomily filled another bowl of rice.
“Don’t listen to him. There should be another way.”Fu Xian comforted her.
” Fu Xian is right,” Ji Jing explained in detail.” Ordinary evil spirits should have gone crazy when they realized that they were possessed, but you didn’t. If I were to summon Xue Meng’s soul and bring it back, his soul would return to its original position, and you would be expelled from this body. Ordinary evil spirits would not be able to control themselves. At that time, I would have no choice but to make a move…However, your situation has always been special. I can’t say for sure what will happen.”
“Oh… In short, there’s a high chance that I’ll turn into ashes, but a low chance that I’ll survive?”Xue Zhong touched his chin.” Then, I have to eat more. I’ll go on my way after I’m done.’”‘
“Yo, human brat, you’re quite optimistic.”Liang Xiao admired such a character.
“The success rate of my surgery has always been less than 50%. Although I don’t know what Wu Lin is doing to me through the surgery, he still made me prepare for death early.”Xue Zhong shook his head and said casually,”l’ve already drafted several versions of the will. How can I not be optimistic? Don’t worry, just summon the souls.”
At the age of fifteen, Xue Zhong should have been enjoying his youth in school. However, he had already written several wills. He said the word ‘death’ more easily than anyone else. It was hard to imagine what kind of life he had lived.
“Tomorrow. I have other ice cream at home, you…” At the table, only Fu Xian, as a normal human, felt a little sorry.
“No, don’t be soft-hearted. Let’s summon the soul today.”Xue Zhong was more ruthless to himself than anyone else.” If I wait until tomorrow, I’m afraid I won’t be able to bear to leave..”
