Kiyohime quickly cleared away the monsters around Kagoshima.
When the group was going back, Su Ziyu saw the group of night cruisers wearing black suits again. The bald man leading the group was walking over from the sea with a group of people. All of them were adult men, and their expressions at this time were very dull. , being escorted forward by seven or eight black suits.
"Your Highness Bai Ji." The bald man came over with a respectful expression after seeing Qing Ji and said, "You have helped me many times this time."
Qing Ji nodded slightly when he heard this and said, "What are the casualties?"
The bald man took out a small book with a black leather cover, flipped through it, raised his head and said, "Sixteen died."
"A girl was killed in Kagoshima City."
"The others were all seafarers on the ship and there were no survivors."
"We found eight ghosts."
Speaking of this, he pointed at the ghosts floating from the sea behind him and said: "These people are all polluted by the void."
"It must be sent to reincarnation as soon as possible."
Qingji nodded slightly to express her understanding: "I understand."
"Go and do your work first."
pollute
Su Ziyu curiously turned on his spiritual vision and looked at the ghosts behind the people in black suits. All of them had recently died. Under the influence of spiritual vision, he could see a less obvious black spot on the chests of these adult men. Combined with the blank expressions of these ghosts, he could roughly guess that it was human nature that was lost in them.
Ghosts also have humanity in them.
Generally speaking, the soul consciousness of people who have just died is still very clear and they will not lose their thoughts in a short time. However, the consciousness of these crew members is now very confused.
This is the result of the loss of humanity.
If they stay in the world for too long, ordinary ghosts will slowly lose their humanity and become evil spirits, resentful spirits, earth-bound spirits, etc. Therefore, the underworld will not let ghosts stay in the world for too long. However, this loss of humanity is not very fast. Without some special encounters, there may still be residual consciousness even after the soul has dissipated.
However, these contaminated ghosts are a little different. Su Ziyu can feel that their humanity is losing quite quickly.
It's right there on their chests, where humanity drains away.
There is definitely no initial fire in the Hundred Ghosts Plane.
Therefore, the hole in Xu's chest is definitely not related to the Initial Fire. Su Ziyu carefully observed these ghosts and said to himself: "It's not the Ring of Darkness, but why do they lose their humanity so quickly?"
"Wait." He said suddenly.
Then Su Ziyu walked directly towards one of the ghosts with a dull expression and said in a deep voice: "Let me take a look at their situation."
After saying that, he reached out and touched the chest of one of the ghosts.
In an instant!
Su Ziyu's consciousness came into contact with a strange void world. It was an empty world surrounded by mist. There was no life or any material existence. There was no earth under his feet, no sky above his head, and no boundaries. , a bit like the source sea that you come into contact with when you are spiritually promoted, but it is very different, because here there is only the spiritual energy gathered together by chaotic consciousness.
"Where is this place?" Su Ziyu looked around in confusion. The gray mist was the embodiment of spiritual energy, not the physical mist.
suddenly.
An extremely huge spiritual body appeared in his spiritual perception. Its spiritual body was as huge as a planet. The moment it moved here, the space-time monitor system automatically responded.
"Detected the mental fluctuations of [Ancient Abomination]!..."
"Activate the self-protection mechanism."
“Sever the spiritual connection!…”
Boom, boom, boom.
Su Ziyu's spirit seemed to have been jolted, and he took two steps back. His heart beat violently. He raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, patted his cheek, and said to himself: "Fuck!"
"I almost forgot about the side effects of psychic vision again!"
That's definitely an evil god-level thing!
The side effects are almost the same as when I touched the evil god statue with my hands before.
The hole in Xu's chest is not a ring of darkness, but it is a similar existence and has the same effect of draining humanity.
In the Black Soul Plane, although the Ring of Darkness will lose its humanity, the humanity it sheds will be lost, and some enemies will still lose their humanity.
But Xu is a little different.
The humanity flowing out of the hole in its chest has directly entered that strange space, rather than escaping in the plane of hundreds of ghosts. At the same time, in the process of losing humanity, some chaotic spiritual energy will also flow into their bodies. The void is actually a passage connecting the unknown space, so as long as the ghost becomes a void, it will immediately have strength that is not weaker than that of ordinary monsters.
Those chaotic spiritual energies poured into Xu's bodies and began to distort their shapes, transforming them into various weird forms.
But those are actually projections of consciousness.
For example, the Daxu in the form of a clown may think that he is a clown in the deepest part of his consciousness, an existence that is played and laughed at by everyone.
"Husband?"
"What's wrong with you?" Qing Ji's face changed slightly, and she quickly came over to help Su Ziyu.
"It's okay." Su Ziyu shook his head gently and said, "My spiritual sense sensed something not very good."
"It's not a big problem."
That special space form is very strange, it is a kind of consciousness space, and the ancient abominations perceived spiritually should not be able to escape.
The human nature that flowed out of Xu entered that space and directly turned into the nutrients of the space itself.
"Is there actually a world that feeds on human nature?" Su Ziyu murmured.
The Hundred Ghosts Plane is not the source of the virtual birth.
That weird space of consciousness is the reason why the hole in the chest is formed.
"There were originally so many living people in the Black Soul Plane?"
"Where did all that humanity go in the end? The abyss? Where is the abyss? Is it just because the initial fire dimmed? Has humanity completely disappeared?"
Su Ziyu can't figure out the problem yet.
But he was certain of one thing.
That is this kind of special monster with a hole in its chest. Their existence is related to a strange consciousness space located at the lower level. This space itself is eating away humanity.
Or, human nature can be embodied as the seven emotions and six desires in consciousness.
The black soul plane is a living corpse that has completely drained into unconsciousness, and these voids seem to be some kind of emotional obsession as the dominant consciousness, hunting and devouring souls driven by hunger.
"To figure out what's going on inside."
"Unless I can enter the abyss of the Black Soul Plane and take a look!" Su Ziyu murmured.
The Sun King, Gwen, once sent his strongest knight to suppress the abyss, but no one knows what the abyss is yet. They only know that the existences contaminated by the abyss must be eliminated, and they will all go crazy. The mission of the Frank Undead Team It is to suppress the spread of the abyss.
For this reason, they did not hesitate to slaughter the city and destroy the country!
The characteristics of the abyss are contagion, pollution, explosion of humanity and madness of consciousness, as well as being suppressed by the power of fire.
Xu is also similar in this regard.
The souls of these killed crew members are corrupted by Hollows. If they are not sent to the underworld, they will turn into Hollows sooner or later. The signs of the explosion of humanity in the clown-like Hollows are obvious. The chaotic and crazy consciousness can be felt with closed eyes. .
The ring of darkness cannot be seen on a living person.
But if you look directly at the soul of a living corpse with spiritual vision, you can see the ring of darkness on its chest.
The Sun King, Gwen, once used the power of fire to set a seal in order to suppress the undead people whose dark ring was revealed. Those people were basically imprisoned in Ring Seal City, but there would be a circle of flames on the hollows on their chests. of embers.
… … …
The secret land of Taoyuan.
After dealing with the escaped monsters, Su Ziyu and Qing Ji returned to their residence.
Hollows have appeared in the Hundred Ghosts Plane for hundreds of years, but only ghosts can be contaminated and become Hollows, and living people have no problem.
This is completely different from the Black Soul Plane.
There is no need for the primordial fire to keep the world running here, just be careful about the possibility of ghosts falling.
In any world, there will be a gathering of evil sides. Even if there is no void, ghosts wandering around in the world can easily become resentful spirits. Seeing that Qing Ji and the others seemed to have a wealth of experience in dealing with their actions, Su Ziyu didn't have to worry about anything.
As long as the source of pollution does not affect the plane, it is not under the control of the time and space supervisor.
"Husband."
"Drink tea."
Qingji knelt down in front of Su Ziyu, gently poured him a cup of tea, and said softly: "Where has your husband been these years?"
"Uh..." Su Ziyu hesitated for a moment and then said slowly: "I've been to a lot of places."
"I have been in a very hopeless world for a long time."
Speaking of this, Su Ziyu paused and talked a little bit about the Black Soul Plane.
Half an hour later.
Qingji couldn't help but sigh: "How can such a hopeless world still exist!..."
"Yes." Su Ziyu nodded and said, "I still have nothing to do."
"We can only let the survivors hide in the world of the painting first."
inside the room.
Both of them fell into silence.
Suddenly, Qing Ji raised her head and looked at Su Ziyu in front of her tenderly, and said slowly: "Is there something that your husband is hiding from me?"
"I see you look a little uneasy."
Oops.
Is my acting still not up to par
When Su Ziyu heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little bit in his heart. He had deliberately skipped the matter of the wasteland plane before, so he felt a little uneasy. On the surface, he had paid attention to restraining changes in his expression, but he didn't expect Qingji's perception. He was so keen that he noticed this.
"I..." Su Ziyu suddenly stuttered.
Seeing his embarrassed expression, Qingji couldn't help but stretched out her white palm to gently hold his hand, and whispered: "If you feel embarrassed, husband, you don't have to say anything."
"My husband is someone who wants to do big things, so there will definitely be something unspeakable about him."
After hearing Qingji's words and looking at her gentle face, Su Ziyu suddenly felt guilty and moved.
never mind.
Just die.
Wasn't it just that he was burned once? I guess I can resist it now!
"I..." Su Ziyu took a deep breath and began to slowly describe his experience in the wasteland plane.
Qingji's expression gradually became serious.
There was a depressing atmosphere in the whole room. Su Ziyu's back was covered in cold sweat at some point, but he still managed to finish everything.
Time passed by minute by minute.
Su Ziyu looked at Qing Ji in front of him, waiting for his final sentence.
But what he never expected was that after hearing what he said, Qing Ji did not run away immediately, but tilted her head and hesitated: "What do you mean, husband? You didn't expect that you would have a daughter?"
"Yeah." Su Ziyu nodded and said, "It's surprising."
Qingji was silent for a moment, and then said softly: "That child is also very pitiful. If you have the chance, your husband can spend more time with her."
"correct."
Speaking of this, Qing Ji changed the subject and said in a serious voice: "My husband said that Miss Pasha has undergone advanced bionic transformation."
"So is she a robot now?"
He actually didn't look angry.
"Not exactly." Su Ziyu hesitated and explained the bionic transformation in detail.
The Hundred Ghosts Plane has entered the modern era.
Qing Ji also came into contact with many things from the outside world, and quickly understood the content of bionic transformation.
"It's not easy for her either."
Qingji sighed and whispered: "In order to survive, I have to transform myself into a bionic person."
The atmosphere in the room suddenly relaxed.
Qingji looked at Su Ziyu in front of her with a slightly amused expression, and said with a smile on her lips: "My husband didn't dare to say anything in front of me, is it because he is afraid that I will be jealous?"
"Yeah." Su Ziyu nodded honestly.
Qingji couldn't help but smile and said softly: "I'm not that small-minded."
"Besides, my husband didn't expect this kind of thing to happen at all."
Androids
Isn't that just like a robot
The smile on Kiyohime's lips became gentler. As a great monster who has lived since the Heian period, she can easily accept some of the dross of ancient feudal society. Moreover, Pasha lives in another world. Qingji was most concerned about whether the other party would threaten her position. She was a little concerned about it at first, but after learning that Pasha had been transformed into a bionic person in order to survive, she didn't care so much anymore. , and even a little bit of sympathy.
She felt that she was not so narrow-minded as to be jealous of an android.
As for other things, she didn't care even more.
Men in the feudal era did much more than Su Ziyu and went out. He just vented himself in the face of the pressure of life and death.
Although there was a little accident.
Are you really not angry
That means you don’t have to be burned
Su Ziyu suddenly felt like he was surviving a disaster, and his favorable impression of Qingji suddenly increased a lot.
The reason why he was so afraid of Qingji in the first place was because of her tendency to burn people.
But now Qingji seems to have really changed a lot.
Can you escape this way
Qingji's mind is really much broader than before.
"Are you tired, husband?"
After pouring Su Ziyu a cup of tea, Qingji said softly: "There is a very nice hot spring in Taoyuan Township."
"Not as good as that."
"After dinner later, let's go relax and have a rest."
