The Tale of the Kraken

Chapter 278 Unfinished Things

After this problem was confirmed, everyone was obviously relieved. As long as they knew that this was Lu Shi's soul, then all the previous suspicions had been solidified.

Just like Yuan Mu said, they have been friends for so many years, although emotionally they are willing to believe that there is nothing wrong with Lu Shi, but intellectually everyone can see that something is wrong.And once the soul here belongs to Lu Shi, it means that there are reasonable explanations for the things that were wrong before.

They haven't misunderstood anyone for so many years, and they haven't mistaken people.

"Then, the next thing to solve is the chaotic timeline."

Ning Yuan seemed to be extremely obsessed with this clue, he looked at the relieved expressions of everyone and said, "Although I don't want to be the person who spoils the atmosphere, obviously there are many things we can't ignore, the most important of which is, Since the soul here belongs to Lu Shi, where did his body go?"

"The last time I saw him was outside Zhang Jian's house." Yu Zhongwu continued his words, "After you and Yang Yang left that space that day, Yuan Mu and I went to track down the person who borrowed the space. "

"Isn't that the flower demon?" Ning Yuan raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and asked.

"You have also seen the ability of that flower demon, she doesn't have that much ability to borrow space, that requires not only advanced cultivation, but most importantly, he needs to expend a lot of mind.

And when she was fighting with Yu Zhongwu, it could be said that she was desperate, so it was impossible for her to have the energy to maintain such a huge space. "Yuan Mu shook his head and explained.

"So you didn't chase the flower demon?!" Hearing his explanation, Yang Yang suddenly realized: "I thought you were chasing the flower demon, so I said, if the two of you go after it, the flower demon will naturally come to you." You won't run away so easily, I find it strange that you came back empty-handed. It turns out that you are chasing the big boss behind the scenes."

"It can't be called a big boss." Hearing what he said, Yuan Mu laughed and said, "But you are right, if we go after the flower demon, we can indeed catch up, but at that time the two of us The idea is more inclined to find the person who maintains the space."

"What about the flower demon? Just let her go like that?" Ning Yuan nodded, expressing his support for the two's choices at the time.Indeed, compared to an insignificant flower demon who seems to be a thug, it is obvious that a behind-the-scenes master with a higher level of cultivation and maintenance of that space is more important.

"So we'll leave it to Lu Shi to hunt down the flower demon." Yuan Mu glanced at Ning Yuan and said, "At that time, I didn't realize that there was anything wrong with Lu Shi. This matter has been gone for a long time.”

"So, he went after the flower demon and hasn't come back yet?" Ning Yuan didn't say anything about his explanation, but asked back: "So have you thought about a question? Maybe he will never come back. "

"This... shouldn't be possible?" Yang Yang was taken aback by his words, and said in disbelief, "If he doesn't come back, what will happen to Lu Shi's body? His soul is still here. If the fake If Lu Shi doesn't come back with Lu Shi's body, isn't it true that Lu Shi will never be able to get back his own body? Is he going to stay in this bead forever?"

"This is the best situation." Yuan Mu sighed, and said with some seriousness, "If his body can be found, then his soul may be able to use that body to revive, but if time passes too long, the gathering The efficiency of the soul orb will gradually decrease. At that time, the only thing he should have is the ending of the soul flying away."

His words made the atmosphere in the store suddenly heavy. Yang Yang thought about thousands of possibilities, but he never thought that he would lose Lu Shi because of it.

Although he didn't know Lu Shi very well, and he didn't even meet him for a long time, for him, every customer who came to the store for dim sum was a friend.Whether their original form is a monster or a human, it makes no difference to him.

Besides, not only Lu Shi, but Yuan Mu also helped him a lot.Many times he would even think that if he hadn't called Zuo Yong that day, what would his life be like afterwards?
Maybe find a job that is not too high or not low and work diligently from then on, but it is more likely that he will be fired by the company for some other reasons, just like the last time.

He knew that his innate sense of justice would not suit him to work in other people's companies, and when he saw something unfair, he would definitely stop it, even if he knew it would make him lose his job.

That's something engraved in his bones, and he can't change it.If I hadn't come to work in a dim sum shop, I might have met a gentle and lovely girl, fell in love, got married and had children, and lived my life ordinary.

But Yang Yang feels extremely satisfied with his current life.He never regretted the phone call to Zuo Yong, nor did he regret agreeing to Hu Weixian to work in the dim sum shop.

Because he knew that if he wasn't here, he wouldn't be like this anyway, opening his eyes every day to feel that there are countless possibilities in life.He wouldn't have met so many friends, each one of which he never even dared to think about.

He has never been so thankful for God's arrangement for him. His own eyes can see things that others cannot see.

Just like what the other party told him when he was chatting with Michelle one night.Every talent is a gift from heaven, the only difference is when you realize that it is a gift and not a curse.

Her words made Yang Yang realize suddenly, but also remembered about Michelle's birth.As a witch, she can feel things that others can't feel since she was a child, and her parents are not around, so she must be in the same situation as herself, feeling helpless and lost, right?

But fortunately, she has grown into the gentle and lovely character she is now, without becoming gloomy.Yang Yang thought this might be a gift from heaven!

"Then what should we do? We must find a way to prevent Lu Shi from dying inexplicably!"

Thinking of this, Yang Yang came back to his senses. He looked at a few people and said, "Maybe we go find Chi Dun? Ask him if he can do anything? After all, you have also said that the Taoist sect will be more familiar with the matter of souls."

"It's useless to find him this time." Yuan Mu smiled wryly after hearing what he said, "He can't help you with this matter."

"Why!?" Yang Yang obviously did not accept this reason. Although he was not familiar with Lu Shi, he had helped him.He has always been educated to be a person who wants to be grateful.

"Because, Lu Shi is not a mortal, but a monster." Yuan Mu's voice was not loud, but his words were clear: "Strictly speaking, a monster has no soul. The reason why you see the Soul Gathering Orb in front of you will emit The golden-red light is because what is condensed inside is not his soul, but his spirit."

"As I said before, we monsters are born and raised by heaven and earth, and a monster's spirit is formed by his cultivation base. Therefore, once the spirit is dispersed, a monster's body will really be wiped out. "

"Then we have a solution, right? We can't just sit and wait like this?" Hearing his words, Yang Yang was a little dazed, but he kept asking about other possibilities: "Then is there any magic that can solidify the spirit of the monster?

If the spell doesn't work, what about the magic weapon? "He said, glanced at everyone and said, "I don't believe it, we have nothing to do, we can only passively wait for Lu Zhi to disappear!"There must be a way! "

"That's right, I also think that the so-called sky never ends, Lu Shi, I'm not very familiar with him, but judging by your attitude, he must be a very respectable person at ordinary times... a monster.

In this case, I believe that the reincarnation of heaven will not just watch him disappear inexplicably. "Ning Yuan also nodded at this time, "If it really doesn't work, how about finding another corpse?"Can this work? "

Yuan Mu couldn't help laughing at the two people's out-of-the-box methods, but he also understood their intentions for Lu Shi.He then said, "There are ways, but it's a temporary solution rather than a permanent cure."

"It's good to treat the symptoms but not the root cause!" Yang Yang immediately said after hearing this, "Tell me what you can do first, it can be delayed for a while. We will slowly think of other methods when the time comes!"

"The method is divided into two steps. In the first step, we put the soul-invigorating pearl in the time-setting folder, let it lock the time, and slow down the time for Lu Zhi's soul to dissipate, so that we can buy more time for us. This point , Yue Bing, I need you to look for it, and on the other hand, I will also notify Bainiaomen to help." Yuan Mu said, looking at Yue Bing.

"Don't worry about this matter, I will definitely handle it well." Yue Bing nodded upon hearing this, and agreed.

"On the other hand..." Yuan Mu glanced at Ying Long and said, "On the other hand, I need your help."

"What do you want me to help with? You can just say what you want, and I will definitely help if I can. Besides, there is no need to be so polite between us." Ying Long waved his hand and said nonchalantly.

"What I want you to do is very simple, you cooperate with Xie Zhi and Chi Dun to find the whereabouts of that fake Lu Shi as soon as possible, which is the most important thing.

We don't have time to wait for him to go after the flower demon, deal with other things and come back. "Yuan Mu didn't beat around the bush, and directly assigned the task.

"Come back? Do you think he will come back?" Yang Yang asked in surprise when he heard this.

"Yes! He will definitely come back." Yuan Mu looked at Yang Yang and said seriously, "Because what he wants to achieve has not been achieved yet."
