Words:1963Update:22/11/12 06:56:01
Cen Che died in an accident when he was 15 years old.
But his parents were unwilling to give up. They got to know someone and used a strange method to trap his soul in his body.
His body was already dead, so they had to nourish it with spiritual energy to prevent it from rotting.
At first, he refused. He was a dead person, and it was very painful to live in such a way. But he couldn't die and leave his body.
Even if his body was damaged, it would recover quickly under the nourishment of spiritual energy.
He didn't have any other symptoms except for his pale face. He avoided contact with people so that they wouldn't think he was dead. Gradually, he got used to it.
He lived like a living dead. Sometimes, he couldn't control his body. After all, he was trapped in this body and didn't use this body to come back to life.
Later, he learned how to cultivate on his own, and the situation gradually improved.
As more and more people came into contact with him, some people noticed his abnormality and tried to subdue him. At first, he didn't resist. He wanted to be free. He didn't want to live like this.
But later, he found that no matter what people did, they could only hurt his body. Once someone attacked him, there would be a protective circle in his body that protected his soul.
Although his body would recover, it would be very uncomfortable. Sometimes, he couldn't move and just lay there like a corpse. So he learned to fight back.
If someone attacked him, he wouldn't show any mercy.
"Look, don't I look like a monster?" Cen Che said in a low voice.
"I don't mind. Even if you are a monster, you can only be mine."
Cen Che rubbed her head and took the initiative to kiss her forehead. Shi Sheng wanted to take the opportunity to kiss him, but Cen Che moved away. "No."
Shi Sheng pouted. "Just for a moment."
"No." She was alive, and he was dead. If they did anything more intimate, she would be hurt.
Shi Sheng tugged at his sleeve. "Just for a moment. Don't go in. It'll be fine."
Cen Che found that he always felt helpless when it came to her. He suppressed the restless power in his body. "Just for a moment. Don't go in."
Shi Sheng nodded with smiling eyes. She hugged his neck and leaned against him. She raised her head and kissed him on the lips.
Her lips were hot and soft. It was a feeling he had never experienced before. He really wanted to …
Cen Che stopped the thought and quickly distanced himself from her.
"Do you want to be resurrected?" Shi Sheng tilted his head and looked at him.
"I'm already dead. How can I be revived?" Cen Che couldn't help but laugh. His pale face suddenly became lively. "When you're with me, other than not being able to do anything more intimate, everything else is fine. Do you … mind?"
"I can revive you."
Cen Che was stunned and looked at her. "What … is the price?"
"How about half of my lifespan? It's like I'm giving you half of it." The price of resurrection was either a life for a life, or a portion of one's lifespan.
"Forget it." Cen Che shook his head.
Shi Sheng leaned close to Cen Che's ear and whispered a few words. Cen Che's eyes suddenly became a little awkward. If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't blush, his face would have turned completely red by now.
"If you don't revive, you'll continue living like this. I'm just an ordinary person. I'll die. Do you want to see me die in the end? I don't mind how long I can live, but I want to die with you. "
Cen Che didn't have a heartbeat, but at this moment, he felt as if he had a heartbeat. "I … I'll think about it."
Shi Sheng didn't force him. He nodded in agreement and asked him to think about it. Then he changed the topic. "What kind of spiritual herb are you looking for?"
Cen Che took the opportunity to answer, "I don't know, but it contains a lot of spiritual energy. It's very helpful to me. I've been waiting for it to grow."
"You need something with a lot of spiritual energy?"
Cen Che bit his lower lip. "My body needs a lot of spiritual energy to nourish."
Shi Sheng took out a few things from his space and stuffed them into his hands. "You don't have to go through so much trouble in the future. I have a lot. It's enough to feed you."
Shi Sheng gave him some ancient jade and some strange herbs. But all of them contained a lot of spiritual energy. He felt much better when he touched them.
Cen Che took them instinctively and didn't refuse. He didn't know why he could take them so easily.
Shi Sheng and Cen Che went down the mountain. She ignored his objections and walked beside him while holding his hand.
"Your body should be using some kind of puppet technique. In order to give a puppet a soul, a puppet master will capture a soul and inject it into the puppet. Your body has been specially treated to protect you and keep you from decay. It can also recover automatically. The person who helped you is very powerful … but I have to check it when I go back. "
If the other party did something to his body, it would be very easy for them to control him.
She wouldn't allow that to happen.
"Okay." Cen Che didn't refute. He looked down the mountain. "The village hasn't changed."
It was still as eerie as before.
The Taoist priest said that he had been like this when he came. He only used the villagers to capture passers-by for him. It was very likely that he was lying. There was someone behind him.
Shi Sheng looked over with an indifferent expression. "So be it. It's none of your business. Let's go back to the city."
Shi Sheng and Cen Che planned to go back to the city. But before they left the village, it started to rain heavily. The bean-sized raindrops hit them painfully. It was almost impossible to drive back in such a heavy rain.
The two of them had no choice but to go back to the village.
The villagers in the village also didn't change much. Some of them ran back to their houses, while others stood at the door and looked at the gray sky. They still had that strange expression on their faces.
When they went back to the woman's house, they saw a few unexpected people.
The fake Ji Tong, three men, and two women were sitting in the central room. They were all wet. The woman was busy next to them. These people seemed to have braved the rain to come in.
Among the three men and two women, Shi Sheng only recognized Ji Man.
"Mr. Cen, you're back. Eh, where did you get the umbrella?" The woman noticed Shi Sheng and Cen Che and immediately greeted them. Although she was curious about their umbrella, she didn't ask much. "It's raining so suddenly. Come in quickly."
The woman's voice wasn't soft. The six people in the house heard her and looked outside.
"Xiao Tong." Ji Man's reaction was the biggest. She stood up immediately. "Why are you here too … Uh … Senior Cen is here too."
Her gaze moved down to Shi Sheng and Cen Che's hands. She immediately winked at Shi Sheng.
Shi Sheng waved at her. Ji Man said something to the man beside her and then ran to Shi Sheng.
Shi Sheng glanced at the fake Ji Tong. The fake Ji Tong was also looking at her. There was a complicated look in his eyes. He bit his lip and didn't say anything.
The others weren't very familiar with Shi Sheng. They only looked over when Ji Man greeted them. They looked at her and Cen Che curiously.
Some of them probably recognized Cen Che and started to whisper to each other.
Shi Sheng glanced at Ji Man. "Let's go in first."
Ji Man looked behind her. She probably trusted Shi Sheng more. But when she looked at the man from before, his attention was on the other girl.
She bit her lip and followed Shi Sheng into their house.
