Chapter 59: After all this time, it turns out they are friendly forces
Straw hat and raincoat.
This is a water ghost.
Xu Chong once simulated an encounter with a water ghost, including the current situation where the ghost came to his door alone.
There is only one conclusion: it is better to strike first than to strike hard!
So Xu Chong didn't hesitate at all and exploded!
The fifth level of Tongmai is fully opened!
Wind-breaking hand, full open!
Xu Chong's figure instantly appeared in front of the water ghost and struck him with a palm.
This palm abandoned all skills and only pursued absolute speed and absolute power.
Except for leaving a small amount of strength to ensure that the body does not collapse, most of the strength was poured into this palm.
Nothing fancy.
Just a straight palm strike, with a force of a thousand pounds!
It is no exaggeration to say that even if Wei Wuxie was here, he would be killed on the spot if he was hit by this palm.
He believed that even if the water ghost was stronger than expected and had reached the seventh level of Tongmai, it would still be seriously injured if hit.
As long as he is seriously injured, he will have the chance to kill him!
But unfortunately.
Just as the palm was about to hit, the water ghost took half a step back.
With a distance of half a step, Xu Chong's palm, which he exerted with all his strength, landed completely in the empty space!
Unless his arms could grow half a meter longer out of thin air, there would be no possibility of hitting the water ghost.
Very strong!
Xu Chong was frightened but not panicked. As his palm missed, he took a step forward, retracted his right hand, and used his left hand instead.
The muscles on the entire upper back were wriggling fiercely, from right to left.
This is one of the power-generating techniques of the Zhefeng Hand. It relies on transferring the old force to allow new force to be generated without any gap and... stronger!
It was so strong that Xu Chong felt tearing pain all over his body.
Even if it were a little stronger, the physical body would be in danger of collapse.
"At such a close distance, I don't believe you can avoid it!"
Xu Chong's eyes were fierce, and all his mind was focused on this palm.
As it turned out, he was right.
The water ghost did not retreat anymore, but chose to meet the attack with a punch.
However, the result was far beyond Xu Chong's expectations.
The fists and palms collided with each other, but with such a huge force, no sound was made!
His tremendous strength seemed to have hit cotton, like a drop in the ocean, disappearing without a trace.
Xu Chong: “…”
His mind was a little dazed.
I can't help but wonder, what realm is a water ghost in?
When warriors fight, victory or defeat is decided in a moment.
This was a fatal mistake.
If the water ghost had any intention, Xu Chong would surely die.
Fortunately, the water ghost didn't seem to have the intention of killing him. After taking the palm, he retracted his fist and walked straight past him towards the study.
"this……"
Xu Chong was stunned for a moment, turned around and stared at the water ghost blankly, watching him sit down in the study as if he was familiar with him.
"Come in, we have a lot to talk about."
The water ghost said calmly, his facial features completely hidden under the bamboo hat.
Xu Chong didn't feel any hostility and walked in with a hint of depression.
After all this time, the water ghosts are friendly forces?
After Xu Chong sat down opposite him, Shui Gui continued: "Actually, I don't want to come, but I have to."
"What's the meaning?"
Xu Chong was very confused, but he felt a lot more relaxed.
"There is something seriously wrong with your state of mind."
The water ghost tapped the table with his index finger.
Xu Chong's heart tightened.
Regardless of whether there is a problem with his state of mind, the fact that the water ghost can say such words must mean that he knows a lot of things.
How much does he know?
"State of mind? My state of mind is very good, there is nothing wrong."
Xu Chong pretended to be relaxed.
The water ghost did not choose to argue with Xu Chong, and said to himself: " After the meridians are opened, the state of mind is the key among the keys. If you continue like this, the moment you break through to that state, you will go completely crazy and lose yourself."
Xu Chong frowned, "I don't understand what you mean."
"Let me explain it with some concrete things."
The water ghost paused and said quietly, "Do you think Zhang Youde was really forced to death by you?"
"Isn't it...wait!!!"
Just halfway through the conversation, Xu Chong was shocked, "You even know this?!"
What is the concept?
Zhang Youde's death happened when he first started into martial arts.
This is directly related to one point - the fact that he obtained the skills without making any contribution!
in addition……
The water ghost even knew about things that happened so early, so what about the things I did later? !
Has everything been seen?
"Don't be afraid. If I had done anything bad to you, you wouldn't be alive today."
The water ghost said helplessly.
“…”
Xu Chong calmed down after a long while and slowly exhaled, "Okay... did you just say Zhang Youde?"
"That day, although you were hiding in the dark, you saw him change his location and hit you before leaving, right?"
The water ghost's tone was very calm and indifferent, like an elder commenting on a younger person, "But you don't know that the palm strike was not fatal at all."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Chong's hair stood on end.
"He held back."
Without waiting for Xu Chong to speak, the water ghost continued, "He waited for a long time, and after confirming that you had left, he stood up again and prepared to escape."
"Because he thinks that you know the secrets of martial arts, which can not only save him from death, but also bring him greater benefits."
"Unfortunately, he doesn't know I'm still waiting."
It turned out that Zhang Youde died at the hands of a water ghost.
He even wanted to exchange himself for the credit...
Xu Chong was lost in thought and suddenly found himself a little ridiculous.
"You may feel that this is your bottom line as a human being."
The water ghost said, shook his head, and said mercilessly: "But I think this is self-deception."
Self-deception...
Xu Chong was speechless.
"The consequence of deceiving yourself is that you gradually become crazy."
The water ghost continued, "You may not agree with me when I talk about the disadvantages in the future, but right now... your plan this time was obviously perfect, but your madness made you ignore something that you shouldn't have ignored. This resulted in a flaw at the end."
"flaw?"
Xu Chong raised his voice a little higher, "Impossible!"
He has reviewed the game and there are clearly no loopholes.
Wuxie Daozi died, and Fu Yuanlong also died.
Those Blood-Clothed Guards were even more certain that Wei Wuxie had stolen the treasure.
Where's the flaw?
"impossible?"
The water ghost sneered, "Why are you so sure that the court has no ability to obtain information from corpses?"
"Getting information from a dead body?!"
Xu Chong was confused.
yes……
The imperial court could even come up with obstacles to knowledge and perception, so is it outrageous to let a corpse speak?
"Also, every Taoist of the Taiping Dao has his own followers, or Taoist servants."
The water ghost ignored Xu Chong's reaction and continued, "Wei Wuxie's Taoist servants have been waiting outside the city. If he wants to take the fragments of the cave heaven for himself, he will definitely kill the Taoist servants to delay the time for the higher-ups to know about it. And you don't even know the existence of these followers."
"...In other words, all the illusions I painstakingly created are actually not true at all?"
Xu Chong looked a little depressed.
He spent a lot of effort to hide the truth from the imperial court and the Taiping Dao.
But now it seems... nothing has been hidden?
"Don't worry, I've already perfected it for you."
The water ghost added, "There are only a few of the hundred Blood Robe Guards left, and Fu Yuanlong's remains are no longer a problem."
"As for the three Taoist servants, I left traces of Wei Wuxie's moves on their bodies."
"I even helped you deal with the Blood-Light Mother Mirror that you threw outside the city."
