"Jade?"
The man in black was stunned for a moment, then understood what Ye Chuzhi was referring to, and looked at him with a hint of vigilance -
This man didn't ask about the magic weapon or the body he promised to give him. Instead, he just asked questions about that weird piece of jade.
Why
He hesitated and asked tentatively: "Is there anything special about that piece of jade?"
"I am the one who has to answer the question now, not you!" Ye Chuzhi frowned, "Now, tell me, where did you get this jade?"
He had a hunch that he would not be able to get the answer from the other party so smoothly.
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, the man in black lowered his eyes and said in a somewhat erratic tone: "I picked it up."
"Picked it up? Oh, in your eyes, am I such an easy person to fool?" Ye Chuzhi sneered, "As far as I know, the place where this jade last appeared is very dangerous. , even a hundred of them wouldn’t be able to come out alive!”
"What do you mean by that?" The man in black raised his head suddenly, "How do you know where this jade appeared?"
At this point, Ye Chuzhi knew that the man in black would never tell the truth so easily. At the same time, he also lost his patience and was too lazy to make excuses with the other party, so he directly stretched out his hand and grabbed Xu Xu forward.
With a shrill scream, a translucent soul was pulled out of the body of the man in black.
The soul was hanging in mid-air, holding his neck with both hands, and struggling and kicking with both feet!
However, any struggle was in vain. No matter how hard he tried, it was as if he was being held by a big invisible hand, unable to move at all.
It wasn't until he stopped struggling as if giving up that Ye Chuzhi said, "How are you? Have you calmed down?"
Soul gritted his teeth and said, "Who are you?"
Ye Chuzhi sneered, laughing at his ignorance of current affairs: "I say this... colleague, please look at the situation clearly before asking questions. Now that you are in my hands, what qualifications do you have to ask me questions?"
"You're the one who can't see the form clearly, right?" The soul was also a ruthless character. Hearing this, he let out a strange smile like a bellows: "Now you have questions to ask me, am I right?"
Seeing Ye Chuzhi frowning, he continued: "You want to know the origin of that piece of jade? Is it very important to you? Okay, I will tell you whatever you want to know first, but you have to get out of Ye Zheng's body first. !!”
Ye Chuzhi was amused by his stupidity: "At this time, are you still trying to bargain with me?"
"So what?" Soul's eyes were full of resentment, "If you don't return your body to me, you will never know the origin of this jade!"
Perhaps he had foreseen Ye Chuzhi's compromise, and when he said this, Hun Soul couldn't help but have a hint of pride in his tone.
Unexpectedly, in response to his threat, Ye Chuzhi only sneered and replied with two words: "Idiot."
"What did you say?!" Soul raised his voice, "How dare you scold me?"
"Did I say something wrong?" Ye Chuzhi said confidently, "If I read it correctly, you should be a disciple of Hengyan Temple, right? Your Hengyan Temple is to cultivate the soul and nourish the body with the soul! But what about you? You actually took shortcuts, took the wrong path, and turned yourself into an evil cultivator who is neither human nor ghost?"
"Looking at the condition of your soul, you should be forty or fifty years old. Who is your master? Where is he now? I will leave you to him later and let her clean up the house!!"
"You dare, boy!!" Soul suddenly raised his voice, "Don't think that just because you know a little bit, you can talk nonsense here! I don't care where you know the name of Hengyan Temple, if you don't agree to tell Ye Zheng Give me your body, even if you talk about smallpox today, you won’t even get the answer!!”
"You are a fool, you are really not smart." Ye Chuzhi looked at him as if he were a fool, "At this point, you still think about the things in front of you. Do you think that if you don't say anything, I will Is there no way to know?”
He looked at the suspicious ghost and suddenly smiled: "Do you know about 'soul searching'?"
The "soul search" he talked about was a way to learn other people's memories through magic, so as to obtain the information you want to know.
It's just that the process of using this method will cause the recipient a lot of pain. Most of the recipients become idiots because they can't stand the severe pain and the damage to their souls. Therefore, this method is regarded as an evil method. In recent decades, Very few people use it anymore.
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, his soul struggled violently again. Seeing this, Ye Chuzhi nodded and said: "It seems that you know this method and are very clear about the consequences of using it... How about it, are you willing now?" Did you answer my question?"
"I don't believe it!!" the soul of the man in black howled, "This method has been lost a long time ago! I don't believe you can do it!!"
"You can try!!" Ye Chuzhi said, "I'll give you one last chance. You can choose whether to answer my questions or not."
As he spoke, he sighed and said with some distress: "The reason why I ask you is because the master said that ascetics try not to harm Tianhe. According to my idea, I want to attack you directly. Because of this, You will become an idiot, and no one will ever know that I am not the real Ye Zheng..."
Maybe it was because his entangled look was too real. The man in black couldn't see any sign that the person in front of him was telling lies. He hesitated for a while and then said resignedly: "Okay, I can answer your question." ... That jade pendant was given to me by a senior."
"You are right. I am a disciple of Hengyan Temple. Later, something went wrong in my practice, and I embarked on this path... After he knew that I had cultivated the Soul-Eating Lock, he gave me this jade pendant, saying that the jade pendant was in There is spiritual energy, let me find a way to suck out the spiritual energy, and then destroy the jade pendant! It’s just..."
"It's just that you don't have enough skills to break the seal that protects the spiritual energy on the jade pendant, so you thought of a damaging move. You want to use your magic weapon Jade Ruyi to absorb the spiritual energy, and then use Jade Ruyi to consume the seal on the jade pendant, right? ?" Ye Chuzhi stopped talking and speculated further.
Seeing the soul of the man in black nodding, his heart tightened: If what the other party said was true, then the so-called "senior" who handed Yingjue to the man in black probably knew that he was sealed in jade.
Moreover, the other party wanted to kill him!
