Cyber Ghosts - Chapter 224
Chapter 224 Tong Xiangyu Came
All of them felt surprised after consideration. Xiao Hong rushed to step on the gas and the car moved forward so quickly.
It was not so long after the car drove away that Lele was found lying on ground. Due to the delay time of videos, it was concluded that Lele had lied on ground for almost half an hour. His body was cold, and Xiao Hong decided quickly to take them to the room of Hao Ning by fire. He rushed to put Lele into the room and let Zhou Yuan and Hao Ning out of the room. Only Xiao Hong and Liu Shuai were left in the room to study the cure method.
“How is that?” Hao Ning was so nervous as he kept walking around the living room, and he asked Zhou Yuan, “why did Lele appear? And then why do they still hide?”
“I have no idea!” Zhou Yuan fondled his forehead and felt very confused. “You guys and I all watched the video. All I know is all you know.”
“I have no idea!” Zhou Yuan fondled his forehead and felt very confused, “you guys and I all watched the video. All I know is all you know.”
“That’s because the needle is used to hurt the soul!” The door of the room opened, and Xiao Hong and Liu Shuai walked outside frowning. “So, there is no any scar in the body.”
“How is Lele?” Hao Ning and Zhou Yuan stood simultaneously. They are colleagues and Lele, working in the reception, was very lovely to everyone. Now she got hurt and all of them felt worried about her, “how is she?”
“Ah…” Liu Shuai shook his head and looked at Zhou Yuan without a word.
“Why are you looking at me?” Zhou Yuan felt panic and waved his hands. “I haven’t thought the virtualized reality could create the real Lele, and the video delayed for half an hour. That was because you did not adjust the video well. If you spent much more time, this would have not happened!”
“It is the same to spend more time in it, and I do not blame you.” Liu Shuai shook his head without an opinion. And he added, “we thought according to our experience, all except Yi Pingzhi were fake. So, we thought Lele was fake too.”
“Ah…so, you are right….” Zhou Yuan patted his head. “Everything could be faked but real….”
Liu Shuai nodded, sitting on a sofa with his head lowering. He pointed at Zhou Yuan and Lele in the room, “I felt it a pity that why the same thing happened again. You and Lele, how….ah.”
“The same thing?” Hao Ning felt strange. “What’s the difference between Lele and Zhou Yuan?”
Liu Shuai just shook his head without a word.
“She was stabbed by that needle.” Xiao Hong said in a low voice. “Her body is fine with only few wounds in tumble. Just now I used the Kalasa of Bodhisattva to recover her wounds. But her soul…”
Xiao Hong reached his hands, only to see a little soul-lighting man in his palm. All people here found it was a very old woman in Lele’s dress, with a blue spot glittering in her chest.
“This? Lele’s soul?” Hao Ning understood. “Why does she get so old?”
“She is already 80 thousand years old, and she is becoming old due to that needle.” Xiao Hong shook his head and took out the Jade Goddess of Mercy and put the soul into the Kalasa.”Now, what I can do is to use Kalasa to stop her senility, but the body of Lele…” Xiao Hong looked back at the room, “has no soul already.”
“How…” Hao Ning understood that Zhou Yuan once said Lele’s condition was like Zhou Yuan because Zhou Yuan had experienced that condition of no soul in his body. But, at that time Zhou Yuan was controlled by Lan Ruo to keep normal without his soul. Now Lele had a special condition that she was sleeping. Hao Ning thought for a while and said, “then what could we do? Let him keep sleeping all over time?”
“Sleeping?” Liu Shuai said with a bitter smile, “You are over optimistic! She had no soul with her body, and it seems that she will die soon.”
“Ah?” Hao Ning understood at once. Lan Ruo used souls of animals but now it was hard to find an animal to put its soul into Lele’s body.
NO! Hao Ning denied all his own idea. He sat on the sofa and sighed, “then what could we do?”
“Yes.” Liu Shuai felt depressed. “At that time, Zhou Yuan could use Circle God’s method to deceive his body, but now Lele has no such a chance.”
“Circle God?” Hao Ning suddenly stood up and after thinking for a while, he held Zhou Yuan’s hands. “Ah, why do you allot your incense to Lele’s body and let her have a Circle God into her body too? Do you need me to use Soul Cutter to cut your soul into two parts and give one to Lele?”
“You, you, you! Are you insane?” Zhou Yuan withdrew back his shuddering hands and cursed. “Speak it out if you want me to die!”
“Any problem? You’ve become immortal.” Hao Ning did not understand why Zhou Yuan was so scared. He believed that was a good idea. He said strangely, “You see that. You are a Circle God. I can use my Soul Cutter to cut you with two Circle God and put one into Lele’s body. Then she will have a soul in her body.”
“Brother, don’t rock the boat.” Liu Shuai smiled bitterly and held his forehead to explain to Hao Ning patiently, “you had collected those incenses of the Internet by apotheosizing into the Circle of Friends, a concrete icon. How can it be cut? You mean the soul of Long Fei was split into two parts by Soul Cutter, and then there will be two Long Fei?”
“It happened before. Monkey King has the magic of bilocation.” After he talked about biolocation, he suddenly thought that Yan had ever used the magic of biolocation to change the nether world into the condition now. And Monkey King had ever disorder nether world. Is there any connection? But now he did not ponder it and asked Liu Shuai, “you tell me! How can Monkey King do that?”
Liu Shuai looked like an idiot and looked at Hao Ning. “First, only the Monkey King can play the magic arts. Magic arts are needed to practice, understand? Second, does the Monkey King cut his soul into several parts to achieve biolocation? Are you insane? The Monkey King is a monkey demon instead of a starfish demon. Why do you believe that the Monkey King can turn to be several Monkey Kings after he is cut into several parts and thrown into sea?”
“Eh…you are right.…” Hao Ning felt embarrassed by Hao Ning’s words and scratched his head to look at Zhou Yuan, “ah, the Monkey King used his hair to achieve the magic of biolocation, instead of using immortal soul to cut the body into two parts?”
“Bullshit! It is so dangerous to stay aside you.” Zhou Yuan glared at Hao Ning. “You know so little knowledge about theology. Thank god, you did not use me directly as your experimental subjective. I am not the embodiment of earthworm, which can be still alive when it is cut into two parts!”
“Then is there anything left of the Internet incense?” Hao Ning hurried to ask Zhou Yuan. “If so, I will get apotheosized too.”
“Ha ha ha, absolutely not. It was apotheosized by you at that time. Do you remember?” Zhou Yuan laughed and looked at Hao Ning.” The information in the Internet are changeable constantly. And because of this, you fix all the incense which is changeable in the Internet into the Circle of Friends. Then if there is any new incense, it must surround the Circle of Friends. At present, there is no incense which is apotheosized at all! I cannot feel any incense which is unfixed too! Please do not play tricks on me.”
“I don’t think so.” A voice came from the living room. People here could not recognize where the sound came but Hao Ning thought the voice was such a melody.
“Brother? Brother?” Hao Ning thought the voice was so familiar. He recognized that the voice is the one which lingered on his mind the day before yesterday. He shouted, “is that you? Brother”
“What the hell? Brother? I am a female!” The voice shouted and then she mumbled, “Fine. The voice sounds weird. Wait for a minute, I change another voice.”
“OK?” The sound came again and became softer. “listen, I am a female. Alright?”
“What the hell are you?” Xiao Hong glared and reached his fingers. Samadhi True Fire fired in his hands. “How dare you play tricks in front of me, Sudhana? Show your original appearance! Otherwise, I will burn your origin and destroy your soul to degrade you into the Land of Ninth Nether. You will be there forever!”
“Eh…” Liu Shuai and Zhou Yuan looked at Xiao Hong. Zhou Yuan said to Liu Shuai secretly, “they all call the monster like this? So outdated!”
“God!” The sound seemed to be scared to Xiao Hong’s fire, and it was about to escape.
“Ah—don’t be scared. No one can hurt you when I’m here.” Hao Ning rushed to shake Xiao Hong’s hands, and persuaded her. “Xiao Hong, withdraw your art. Please don’t misunderstand me. The voice is the exact one which helped me finally yesterday in the stone-gambling house!”
“Ha-ha, right.” That voice laughed as Hao Ning recognized it. “You remember me so clearly.”
“Who are you? Brother—no, little girl.” Hao Ning winked to Hao Ning and he pretended to ask in a low voice. “Then, um, why did you help me?”
“I want to be the same with your that unreliable good friend.” The voice seemed to be naughty but melodious. “I want to be apotheosized by you and come to the world to have a look.”
“The unreliable good friend? Be apotheosized by Hao Ning?” Zhou Yuan looked at other people in the living room and all of them were staring at him. He knew that the voice meant that the unreliable good friend was himself. He got outrageous. “Who the hell are you? Show up! I will let Xiao Hong burn your origin and destroy your soul and then degrade you into the Land of Ninth Nether, and then you will be there forever!” He bluffed to looked at Liu Shuai and certainly Liu Shuai looked at Zhou Yuan with a disdainful face.
“You are the god of the Circle of Friends, but you even did not know who I am.” The voice did not dare that and thought lightly of Zhou Yuan’s words and said, “you have no right to say you are the new immortal of the Internet. Listen, I am the intangible incense generated by the Internet faith!”
“Bullshit!” Zhou Yuan bluffed because he said just now that there is no incense which is apotheosized in Internet. But now he felt shameful by the voice. He added, “the incenses of the Internet are all collected in me through the Circle of Friends. How could one of them left?”
“Ha-ha, don’t you know—” The voice laughed, “there are other incenses in the Internet that you, the Circle God of Penguin Empire, can’t reach there.”
“I even don’t know that.” Hao Ning felt doubtful and looked at Zhou Yuan. “So, you are not the whole of the Internet…”
“Its words are bullshit!” Zhou Yuan felt angry and argued. “If you are really what you said just now, come on, show your power to us or just stop your bullshit.”
“I have no way to come out.” The voices said in a regretted mood by Zhou Yuan’s words. “Your feature is to present the will of people, so you can transform yourself into each appearance of people without much effort. But I am generated by people’s faith in money and I am intangible. That’s why I resort to brother Hao Ning—”
Hao Ning felt he was falling in love by its voice Brother Hao Ning and he smiled, “Little girl, which kind of faith incense on earth are you even the Circle God did not know you?”
“Ha-ha, it’s simple.” The voice smiled, “I am the incense generated by people’s faiths of constantly activities in the field of business in Alibeibei Group.”
Alibeiei? Hao Ning suddenly understood and laughed as he was looking at Zhou Yuan. That’s why Hao Ning did not know. Alibeibei is a competent company in Celestial Empire rightly compared with the Penguin Group. Alibeibei always focused on the business in the Internet. So Hao Ning didn’t think that people still had such faith in that field.
“Eh—Ali girl.” Hao Ning himself felt the name was funny. It sounds like the little daughter from Arilang family and he asked with a smile.” I understand that the faith is generated when they play games and incense is generated when they watch video. Chat makes people create mental attention. But I don’t know within the range of Alibeibei, people buying clothes and accessories also can create incenses.”
“Yes, but few.” the voice said in an upset mood, “there are few incenses originally, so it is not so strange that you, the Circle God, can’t fell it. But do not forget, people put a great amount of money into one place of Alibeibei. The place is called—”
“Zhifubao?” Hao Ning spoke it out, and he did not care Zhou Yuan felt outrageous by the word. “Is that Zhifubao?”
“Right! Right!” The voice answered happily. If the girl appeared in front of Hao Ning, he seemed to see she was dancing and clapping. The voice added, “there is no faith when people buy clothes, but people have faith in money. There is the God of Wealth in your world, and Bodhisattva. Who has the— aside it”
“I am Sudhana!” Xiao Hong felt happy and clapped his chest to introduce himself, “it’s me! It’s me! Me! Me!”
Xiao Hong spoke it out for many times, which caused Hao Ning to feel strange. Just now, Xiao Hong wanted to burn the voice. But at present, he started to introduce himself.
“Fine.” The voice seemed to care little about Xiao Hong, which was probably because Xiao Hong just now treated her so rude. She said with a cold voice. “So, I collect incenses from people’s faith in money. I should have spent several years in creating wisdom, but once upon a time you used money to make musical instrument through the incense on the Internet. It was a chance that I suddenly gain wisdom! Thank you!”
“Falling Treasure Coin!” Hao Ning remembered. When the Godslayer Sect planned to save Nezha, they made Falling Treasure Coin by Zhou Yuan’s power. It might be created at that time. “So, you came into being at that time?”
“Right! So I traced you soon. But I did not dare to let you know me as you guys were so busy.” The voice now seemed to be very upset. “It was the first time I spoke out, but you destroyed my numerous incenses. Since then, I haven’t shown up for a long time.”
“Eh…” Hao Ning scratched his head. He knew what the voice said was that the soul of the “Hah” sound in the living room was scared to be turned to Soul Coin Material when Hao Ning used Soul Cutter at the first time. Hao Ning scratched his head and felt shameful. He remembered that the sound, “do you need money? I can give it to you!” in the living room. It turned out to be her, too.
Hao Ning bluffed and was about to say something, but Xiao Hong disrupted him. Xiao Hong asked carefully, “are you OK now?”
“Oh, I’m fine now.” The voice did not care about it and added. “brother Hao Ning, people’s faith in money is quite sufficient. I will recover very quickly as long as the wisdom is created!”
“OK, OK. It’s all right.” Hao Ning thought a little and waved his hands. “Sorry, Ali little girl. We are very busy. Shall we talk later?”
“Ah—don’t be so urgent!” The sound understood that Hao Ning wanted her to leave. It added, “does one of your friends have no soul? You apotheosize me and then I enter his body. How about that?”
“No way!” Zhou Yuan said angrily before Hao Ning answered. “At that time, Hao Nong borrowed the art of the Legend of Deification in the Creation of the Gods. Now the Gods Creation World is in a mess. So, no way!”
“We can do it. We can do it!” Hao Ning still said nothing, but Xiao Hong answered. Xiao Hong touched his body as he said “Brother Zhang once used his own incense of Cihang Taoist in God’s Creation World and intensified power to draw a picture of the Legend of Deification. Brother Hao Ning, you can Lend Me Your Mana and then get apotheosized by the picture drawn by Brother Zhang.”
“Hah!” Zhou Yuan stopped speaking and sat on the table to drink boiled water.
The Penguin Empire and Alibeibei are really two incompatible systems, and even their descendible gods were incompatible for no reason. Hao Ning felt it was funny and did not care about Zhou Yuan’s anger. He found that Xiao Hong was busy in searching the Legend of Deification drawn by Zhang Chi Hang.
“It’s here!” Xiao Hong smiled to take a crumpled napkin from his pocket and the napkin read three words by a pencil, ” the Legend of Deification.”
“…” Hao Ning and Liu Shuai looked at each other and asked, “is that the Legend of Deification you said drawn by Bodhisattva?”
“Eh…” Xiao Hong unfolded the napkin on tea table, pressed it and breathed on it. He said happily, “is this OK?”
Um…it looks better—NO!” Hao Ning could not help but complain. He pointed at the crumpled napkin and at Xiao Hong, cursing, “hey bro, it’s useless! But brother Zhang is good at calligraphy—” Hao Ning patted his pocket in which the Heart Meditation from Xiao Hong written by Zhang Chi Hang was put and pointed at the words written by pencil in the napkin.” Such an ugly handwriting! Are those words written by pencil using his feet after he failed in Truth or Dare?”
“How do you know that? Bingo! You are right!” Xiao Hong was surprised and held Hao Ning’s hands, “you are right! Right! You are the best one who knows best about brother Zhang!”
“…I wish I could not know him…” Hao Ning wiped his sweat and he seemed to smell something strange from the consciousness in the napkin. He looked at Xiao Hong disdainfully and withdrew his hands. “Please burn this very disgusting rubbish!”
And then he looked for a lighter and was about to burn the “foot-wiping cloth” given by Zhang Chi Hang.
“Oh God! Don’t rock the boat!” Xiao Hong felt sweaty and pulled Hao Ning’s hands, “stinky tofu, though stink, has a good taste. The napkin, though ugly, was written by brother Zhang, which is useful to some extent. Though it cannot apotheosize hundreds one immortal, it’s enough to apotheosize one…” Xiao Hong winked to Liu Shuai and pointed at Lele in the room, “we still have to save Lele, right?”
Liu Shuai understood and nodded “right, right! kshitigarbha said he is the only one to go down to the hell. Hao Ning, you should be ambitious to use the ‘foot-wiping cloth’, right?” He saw Xiao Hong was glaring at him and corrected. “You should be the best appropriate one to use—um—the Legend of Deification, right?”
“…” Hao Ning sighed, “But I am not Bodhisattva…”
“Hey hey.” Xiao Hong saw Hao Ning was not that determined just now. And he persuaded, “but you do this charity, and you have a chance to be Bodhisattva…”
“No interest in it.” Hao Ning remembered the face of Zhang Chi Hang and his heart shook a little. But he finally agreed after he looked at the room. “Fine, I’ll try.” He closed his eyes and his finger touched the Legend of Deification, saying the Lend Me Your Mana.
“Wait!” Xiao Hong saw Hao Ning was about to conjure, and he rushed to stop Hao Ning. “Not now. We need to find an icon for the little girl.”
“Icon?” Hao Ning remembered. As Zhang Quan said before, they needed to find a fixed virtualized icon on the Internet. And he asked, “what kind of icon shall we find?”
“It doesn’t matter.” Xiao Hong said, “we just need to find a female.” Xiao Hong bluffed, and glimpsed at Hao Ning without a word.
Hao Ning understood from Xiao Hong’s words. Xiao Hong wanted to find a girlfriend, instead of getting apotheosized! The god generated by Zhifubao, had nothing to do with money, which was perfectly matched with Sudhana. That’s why Xiao Hong was so active. Hao Ning felt easier and believed it was good to find a female which could be the girlfriend of Xiao Hong. He said energetically, “so what kind of icon?”
“You don’t know, brother Hao Ning. Xiao Hong thought Hao Ning did not know the details about apotheosizing. He explained, “due to the difference of people’s faith in money, it is necessary to find a detailed icon if one wanted to get apotheosizing, such as the God of Wealth and Pi Xiu. And brother Hao Ning was the one who knows best of the icon. So, the little girl—” Apparently, Xiao Hong wiped his saliva, “so the incense of the little girl can be more concrete and better apotheosized!”
“I see.” Hao Ning pretended to listen to Xiao Hong. He said by holding his laughter, “that’s easy. Let me think of one icon, which is relevant to money and worshiped by people. How about Ma Yunyan? He is famous and rich in Alibeibei.”
“NO NO!” Xiao Hong’s hand was shaking and said in panic. “It should not be male and an alien. Or I will have a nightmare sleeping aside it—I mean I think it should not be the real figure in the real life. It is better to find one who has existed on Internet all the time, relevant to money.”
Hao Ning felt funny by Xiao Hong’s nonsense, “so, I will find a picture of Pi Xiu from Internet, OK?”
“No NO.” Xiao Hong shook his head, “all is OK. It is better to choose a person and must be a female!”
“You get yourself apotheosized!” Hao Ning swung his hands impatiently. “OK, you determine it. You were not so picky when you picked up Pi Xiu before?”
“Brother, my brother Hao Ning…” Xiao Hong held Hao Ning’s hands and Great Saint Infant King smiled to fawn on Hao Ning. Xiao Hong got serious about his love things and did not hide his real aim. He spoke it out. “Now I can make a choice. All people will take the chance to choose his lover. Please, brother. I am an elder adolescent without any sex experience. Don’t you remember? You used your big and sharp thing to poke me and I did not shout when you and brother Zhang met me first time.”
Xiao Hong meant that when they first met in Shang Fang Valley, Hao Ning used the Water Sword of Zhang Chi Hang to poke Xiao Hong for 36 times to replace the Tian Gang 36 cuts. But it is so strange to be spoke out by Xiao Hong.
“F**k off! Disgusting!” Hao Ning’s body shook a little and sigh. He pondered for a while, “this is the last time. You’d better say it all out!”
“It’s easy.” Xiao Hong counted by his fingers and said in detail. “The icon must be very relevant to money and must be a female. And then it is better to be familiar by people on Internet—easy to collect incense. Besides, it should be sexy and eloquent with good education background. It should be a good wife who is single-minded and loyal and follows the tradition of relationship between husband and wife…” Xiao Hong saw Hao Ning was glaring at him and he stopped, “that’s all.”
“That’s all?” Hao Ning laughed at Xiao Hong with his glare and a cold voice, “You want so much, and that’s why you are still single.”
“Brother Hao Ning, you poked me so painfully at that time~” Xiao Hong said that again. Zhou Yuan felt disgusting and angry and shook a little to go back home. Liu Shuai felt disgusting too and hide in the toilet. He could still hear Xiao Hong’s sick voice. “I got bloody by your poke, and I did not shout~”
“Fine, fine!” Xiao Ning felt so angry and rubbed his forehead. He suddenly thought of one role, and smiled to ask, “will you stop following me if I meet your needs?”
“OK.” Xiao Hong said happily.
“Then if I need help from you, will you…”
“I’ll help you even if you need me to be poked by others for you! Definitely!” Xiao Hong said seriously, “since I have been poked by you for many times…”
“Stop!” Hao Ning said quickly, “Deal! Go ahead!”
“Lend Me Your Mana!”
With a gold light flashing, a woman showed up in the living room. To be specific, it is a sexy woman. Hao Ning giggled to looked at the lady and she felt too shy to look at Hao Ning. “Thanks, brother Hao Ning.”
“Stop!” Hao Ning looked at the lady and shook by Xiao Hong, “You better call me younger brother Hao Ning.”
“Big Brother Hao Ning…” Xiao Hong looked at the woman and was stunned. “Who is this old woman?”
Hao Ning looked at Xiao Hong and said seriously, “Tong Xiangyu!”
“Bang!” Xiao Hong fell to lie down on sofa and looked at Tong Xiangyu. He felt extremely upset and blank, “who is Tong Xiangyu…”
