Cyber Ghosts - Chapter 186
Chapter 186 Subtlety
A leaf fell onto the head of Wang Shi Ming with a breeze. The girl frowned and wanted to stand up to get rid of the leaf but she found she could not stand up. She pointed to Wang Shi Ming with her shivering finger. Hao Ning felt upset with her recalcitrance. He reached out his fingers and the leaf shook a little and then fell on the ground. The girl saw the leaf and made sure that Shi Ming was safe. With a warm smile, she was no longer as arrogant as before!
The girl looked at Wang Shi Ming and then Hao Ning. With a smile, she closed her eyes.
Hao Ning knew what happened. It was likely that a rich second-generation man encountered the Pixiu and got familiar, and then finally fell in love with each other. The Wangs were quite rich and the auspicious beast Pixiu must have much connection with the Wangs even if the Wangs did not call for the beast. But Hao Ning felt confused that how Doctor Xue got involved in this issue.
Xiao Hong sighed and pointed out to the ground with a little hole appearing. Just in a second, the fountain appeared in the hole. She bailed some water to drip it onto the forehead of the girl and said: “If you do not say something, I promise that there will be no such a man called Wang Shi Ming.”
The girl closed her eyes tightly with a word, but she frowned a little.
“If you say something, “Xiao Hong ceased and compressed his lips, and then finally he said: “There may be some ways to save Wang Shi Ming.”
The girl opened her eyes suddenly after she heard the words of Xiao Hong. She looked at Xiao Hong and said: “You can help me? You won’t hurt me?”
“Hey…” Xiao Hong said in a low voice, “we belong to the same kind of person. You come to this dilemma due to lacking a right person to guide you. Why should I hurt you? We could be friends.”
Xiao Hong got shocked when he said the word “we could be friends”. He felt at a loss and stopped taking.
The girl thought for a while and said: “I think you all masters have no interest in the gossip of Shi Ming and me. So, let’s get straight! I talk about Wang Shi Ming.”
Hao Ning nodded his head and found Xiao Hong looked strange with a face of hesitation. He suddenly understood: Given that Xiao Hong once worked at the periodical office with Zhang Chi Hang, Xiao Hong must want to know the gossip of Wang Shi Ming, the second-generation rich man of the Wangs, and the girl, the auspicious beast Pixiu for a thousand year’s practice. The story between them could be adapted to a TV plays with hundreds of episodes! But now Xiao Hong believed herself the master, he felt hesitated with the words of the girl.
“Ah, what’s up?” Liu Shuai’s voice came before Xiao Hong said something. Hao Ning looked back and found that they all came here. Liu Shuai looked at Xiao Hong who looked abnormal and asked: “What’s wrong?”
Xiao Hong shook her hands without a word. Zhe cried: “Bro, why you turn to be like that?”
“Don’t touch him!” the girl shouted. Zhe backed up with her shaking hands, and then the girl collapsed exhaustedly. Xiao Hong gritted his teeth and put the leaf onto the forehead of the girl. The girl opened her eyes again and looked at Xiao Hong with a smile, “Thank you,” and then the girl turned to look at Zhe, “Your souls are similar quietly. If you touch him, you will feel bad too!”
“What’s the matter?” Xiao Hong asked with adjusted emotion.
“Several months ago, Shi Ming flew to visit me,” the girl lowered her head and thought a little, and then she said slowly, “I met something strange on the plain.”
Hao Ning and Liu Shuai looked at each other and asked: “the strange thing is the golden thundercloud?”
“How you guys know that?” the girl asked with her scared eyes, “you met too?”
“We…” Hao Ning now felt hard to say. The thundercloud appeared when Zhang Chi Hang conjured to subdue Long Fei. Why all the things came together? The point was if I met or not?
“Yes, we met it…” Liu Shuai did not know how to say it and just scratched his head.
“You met the split of the sky too?” the girl asked with her scared eyes and shaking body, “the sky was split in the thunderstorm?”
“The sky was split?” Hao Ning could not help but laugh, “What are you talking about? You know that it is raining. Ah? Something wrong, I have once said this before?”
“Go on,” Liu Shuai now did not act like Hao Ning and urged the girl to continue.
“I know you guys would not believe me…” The girl reached out her fingers and a mobile phone flew out of the pants of Wang Shi Ming, “You can see the phone.”
The screen flashed and broadcast a video: in the thunderstorm, a golden light shining black cloud waved. Hao Ning knew that it had happened when Long Fei was protecting the whole plain. He was about to explain to the girl but suddenly Liu Shuai shouted, “The sky, the sky was split!”
Hao Ning looked at the screen quickly only to see that lightning behind the cloud illuminated the sky. A big hole appeared in the sky behind Long Fei, and water poured down from the hole. The scene was hard to find due to the long distance and the dark light. It was the lightning that made us find this.
At this moment, there were light spots in the sky sparsely. After lightning, the black shook a little and disappeared.
Hao Ning got stunned and recalled the sky splitting thing. The flying dragon once talked about this to them. If the scene at that time was designed to Liu Shuai by magic, or it was the memory distortion of Long Fei, what happened this time? Long Fei did not mention the sky splitting before. Hao Ning understood. At that time, Long Fei concentrated to get the animal’s soul in the plain and protected the plain, and then he was taken to the office of Zhang Chi Hang. All of us paid much attention to the plain and did not care about other things.
“Ah…” After the video was ended, Hao Ning pointed at the phone and said: “You said a hole appeared in the sky. This hole, in the sky…the sky was split?”
“No, not only one,” the girl gasped with her eyes closing, “It is two. You guys continue to watch the video.”
The mobile phone broadcast the next video automatically. Hao Ning did not dare to say something and continued to watch. From the angle, it happened on the other side of the plain. All we could see was a black cloud. Thus, it was clear that the body of Long Fei was giant and could wrap the whole plain. At that time, there was a lightning that Hao Ning could see clearly, and a bit hole in the sky in the long distance with the leakage of water pouring down!
“Xiao Hong, Liu Shuai,” Hao Ning asked when he was watching the video, “How many holes in the sky after Gong Gong hit Bu Zhou Shan?
“What?” Liu Shuai and Xiao Hong were in a daze. Liu Shuai smiled, “bro, that is a legend, a story, not a true story. How could it be?”
“But then Sudhana is a legend too!” Hao Ning got quite confused, “Why Sudhana could be a legend instead of Gong Gong?”
“Because the reality can’t be distorted like that, so more incenses are needed.” Xiao Hong seemed to think of some explanation, and frowned, “People’s incenses can be collected into the certain deity, but ordinary incenses are insufficient when great changes happened. So, Brother Zhang can practice Luojia Hills in accordance with the styles of Fantian Seal. But he can no longer find a Bu Zhou Shan to practice into the real Fantian Seal. (Fantian Seal is that it was practiced by Primus using half Bu Zhou Shan, let alone the condition that Gong Gong hit Bu Zhou Shan. And it must cost so many incenses for Nyuwa to mend the sky!”
“Distorting the reality?” Hao Ning got confused, “What you mean the deity is made after the reality distortion?”
“Um…” Xiao Hong scratched his head, “I heard of this from Brother Zhang once before, but I did not understand that the reality is a reality. How could it be distorted and turn to be others? At that time, I wanted to ask for more, but he said I lacked the root of wisdom so I could not understand it. He then did not talk.”
“Oh, so what is this?” Hao Ning pointed at the screen. The two videos were broadcast to the end with the screen turned off. The mobile phone of Wang Shi Ming was in a low battery. The girl rushed to put this phone to his hand. Wang Shi Ming did not move but when the phone was put in his hand, the screen was turned to be a game interface. Wang Shi Ming continued to play his game and Hao Ning found that it was exactly the game of H of the King.
“You! Do not come closer to me!” The girl shouted. The three men who used thatch and stones to wrap themselves tightly rushed to come here, one of them fell down. Hao Ning found that they were the three guards who might play Seven Sided Strike. The constant fighting made us almost forgot them if they did not show up now. The unlucky guy who could play Powerful King-Kong Finger was attacked by the mosquitoes and his blood was absorbed empty and turned to be a skin. The girl saw them come here and said: “Give me now. You would be dead if Shi Ming was in trouble!”
“Ok, ok, ok!” The three shook and took out some phones, and then put them politely to the hand of the girl. The girl said in a light voice: “Go away now!” the three then run with tumbles but did not dare to stay far away and they only stayed near with their heads lowering.
“So many mobile phones?” Hao Ning counted them and found there were 8, “What are they used for?”
“Play game,” the girl sighed and cried. This was the first time we can see the girl cried, “The two videos, one of them recorded by Shi Ming, and the other by his subordinate. Shi Ming dislikes his working style and then chooses to sit in the two sides of the plain respectively. Ah…Why do I say this? Ok, they both recorded the two videos, and that person died after he got off the plain. But Shi Ming…”
“Because Shi Ming was about to visit you, so you must wait for him in the airport,” Liu Shuai lowered his head and sighed, “That’s why you struggle to save him, right?”
“How do you know that?” the girl got confused.
“Falling in love with a person,” Liu Shuai looked at the distant place, which seemed that he could see the hospital where Xiao wen was. He talked to himself, “It is true that I can’t wait to see her.”
“Ah, you know me,” the girl sighed, “it was when I saw Shi Ming that I found him became this, and I found he has got some connection of the game.”
“Connection?” Xiao Hong found the key word and said, “What connection?”
“His half soul, have been absorbed by this game.” The girl frowned, “Although I don’t why, I find that his soul will be absorbed soon the moment he stops the game. And the absorption gets slow when he keeps playing this game. I am just an Auspicious Beast who knows little of the soul. That’s what I guess, maybe not true.”
“Emmm?” Hao Ning and Liu Shuai now did not look at the girl and turned to stare at Zhou Yuan fiercely, “Tell us what happened?”
“What?”, Zhou Yuan got confused. He then understood and cursed angrily, “You think it is me that absorbs the soul of Wang Shi Ming? Come on! I am a god. I have no hatred for him. I am not insane. Besides, he becomes this by playing the game instead of browsing the Moments on the phone! It is nothing to do with me!”
“Don’t lie to us!” Hao Ning stepped forward to twist the neck of Zhou Yuan, “The game of H of King is made by yours. You have provided convenience for the game through your relationship!”
“You, you guys frame me!” Zhou Yuan said in a righteous voice from the beginning, but due to the wrestle of Hao Ning and Liu Shuai and some effort made by Hao Ning, he felt painful very much, “Not me! I am just a god who fixes the incenses into the Moment. I am not the personification of WeChat. I did nothing. I am innocent. You need to find Zhang Dalong.”
When Zhe and Ye heard that Zhou Yuan said he was the god of Moment, they got shocked to almost throw their phones away. Zhe saw that Hao Ning seized the neck of Zhou Yuan and felt scared to almost kneel. He struggled not to kneel because he did not want to be a coward in front of his girlfriend. He put Ye on the ground and sat down too. He thought they should stay away from the fighting of those masters.
“Not him,” Xiao Hong said in a low voice, “I am sure very much.”
“Not him?” Hao Ning believed Xiao Hong’s words and loosened a little his hands.
“You are my true friend!” Zhou Yuan got rid of Hao Ning, and said to Xiao Hong with a smile, “Thank you!”
“I just tell the truth,” Xiao Hong lowered his head and did not look at Zhou Yuan but looked at the girl.
“It’s really not him,” the girl looked at Wang Shi Ming, “Your friend is a little bit incompetent. It is someone with power as a thousand times as Zhou Yuan.”
“So it is,” Hao Ming glimpsed at Zhou Yuan and said sarcastically, “It is because he is incompetent, oh!”
“You!” Zhou Yuan was about to step forward but thought that it would be better to say nothing if he did not want to get more trouble, even he won in the quarrel.
“Eh eh eh!” the girl suddenly gasped and Xiao Hong helped her to breath more smoothly. The girl coughed and said, “So I got the idea just now to let him keep playing the game. 8 mobile phones and 4 hours per phone. And the brand should be not been considered, because it will burn his hands.”
My god! Hao Ning smiled bitterly: “24 hours a day for playing the game? He can’t tolerate this!”
“It is your essence! Right?” Xiao Hong sighed, “He is supported by your essence, right?”
“Yes, from the beginning,” the girl still looked at Wang Shi Ming, “but later, this Doctor Xue came at me and he said he could cure Shi Ming. I don’t know what his method is but Shi Ming did sleep without the phone, and his soul would not quickly be absorbed.”
“The cost is that you need to do something for him?” Zhou Yuan massaged his neck and asked, “among those things, some are related to Zhe?”
“How do you know that?” the girl stared at Zhou Yuan,” You are under Doctor Xue?”
“How dare you guess?” Zhou Yuan smiled bitterly, “Story tells that, or, you must be insane. The lover of an auspicious beast, be controlled by others?”
The girl shook her head, “Eh, Zhe has no much connection with this matter. Doctor Xue wants to get this temple solely by his appropriate ways.”
“Why?” Zhe sat down and asked, “He wants a temple without many incenses?”
“I do not know before, but now I get it!” Liu Shuai pointed at the split fake Manjusri near and said, “he wants to control an incense-concentration site and make the incenses in this temple become the fake god that he can control, and finally the temple must get more and more incenses. See?”
“He wants the gods generated from the Long Shen temple,” Hao Ning understood, “All are controlled by himself?”
“But why he does this so hard?” Hao Ning added, “A bigger temple would be better?”
“Fierce wind comes from subtlety,” Zhou Yuan nodded and understood, “All he does is to cover the Karma. So how could he steal the incense of the Manjusri by his power? Don’t you know that he added something into the Manjusri in the period of the previous incense of the Manjusri?”
“Thanks to Brother Zhang hides the Luojia Hills into his own office…” Xiao Hong grunted.
