When the powerful Ming Zhuo woke up, she found herself an abandoned orphan about to be publicly disowned by a wealthy family on a show. Someone told her that her biological mother was a delicate mo...
The talisman disappeared into the black mist, and then the scenery before her eyes changed.
Everywhere was engulfed in the chaos of war, and as far as the eye could see, there was only scorched earth. The whole world was riddled with holes, and the shadow of death weighed heavily on people's hearts.
Then she saw a huge altar, a group of people in sacrificial robes performing a ritual dance, and many more ragged people kneeling on the scorched earth praying.
Lightning flashed and thunder roared in the sky, dark clouds loomed overhead, and lightning streaked across the heavens. On the ground, the believers who were praying prostrated themselves in devotion.
The people performing the ritual on the altar became even more energetic, their bodies convulsing as if they were going mad.
Mingzhuo thought to himself, "That's a really bad beating. If I were a god, I wouldn't have descended here."
As soon as this thought crossed my mind, the scene before me suddenly changed, this time to the Republican era.
A train sped along the tracks, with bright and beautiful spring scenery outside the window.
Suddenly the train entered a tunnel, and the darkness seemed to linger for a long time.
This is clearly abnormal. Back then, tunnel excavation technology was not as advanced as it is today. If the railway tracks were laid into the tunnel, the distance should not be far, and the tunnel could be opened up very quickly.
Just as Mingzhuo was wondering, the person next to her suddenly pulled "her" along.
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and make a wish!"
"We boarded this train so that our wishes might come true, didn't we?"
“Be devout, and the gods will respond to us and grant all our wishes.”
This voice is so noisy! Mingzhuo thought to himself, how could I let go of an NPC that's practically delivered to my doorstep?
She heard "herself" seemingly speak, and her heartbeat was filled with anticipation; she seemed very happy to be able to participate in this event.
But that doesn't matter. This is that thing's memory, and it's from that thing's perspective. She's not interested in "her own" words.
She asked, "Really? If I make a god die, can it die?"
The air seemed to freeze completely in that instant.
In the darkness, it seemed as if countless eyes were watching. The person speaking next to her let out a short gasp and covered their mouth.
Mingzhuo: "Don't be so surprised. Let's discuss this rationally. Didn't you say it could fulfill all wishes? If it can't fulfill this wish, then it's not as omnipotent as you say."
Before she could finish speaking, the thing seemed to have finally lost its patience and appeared, lunging at her.
Mingzhuo chuckled: "Oh, finally you're not hiding your true colors anymore."
He drew his sword and went to meet them.
——
Gu Xu suddenly stopped.
He Wangyao, who was walking behind, exclaimed, "It seems the black mist is gone."
The black fog dissipated suddenly.
The group walked out of the bamboo forest and saw two people standing in the dim light of day.
No, there was a person standing, and one of them was kneeling on the ground. The two figures were motionless, which looked very strange.
Hou Zhihui's heart skipped a beat. Could this be some kind of evil spirit again?
"Boss!" Pei Di ran over immediately.
Li Wenhe quickened his pace and followed closely behind.
Gu Xu's tense shoulders relaxed slightly. He stepped forward and looked at the person standing there. "Zhuozhuo."
Mingzhuo finally came to her senses upon hearing the sound and took her feet off Hou Linhao's shoulders.
Her expression was calm. "The matter is resolved, and the police should be arriving soon."
He Wangyao looked incredulous. It was resolved just like that? No, wasn't that a bit too fast? He thought there would be a big battle tonight.
He voiced his doubts.
Mingzhuo: "This thing is utterly useless. It makes a big show of it, but it's actually incredibly weak."
Hou Zhihui walked up to Hou Linhao with a serious expression. "Did you cause the black mist and the severed hands and feet just now?"
Hou Linhao suddenly started kowtowing to Ming Zhuo, pleading, "Please, save me!"
He Wangyao looked wary. "What are you up to now? It's not some kind of self-inflicted injury ploy, is it?"
Just like with Hou Zhihui, he suddenly pulled out a knife and was ready to fight to the death.
Hou Linhao's forehead was bleeding from the banging, and he shook his head frantically, his eyes filled with fanaticism as he looked at Ming Zhuo.
"It wasn't a ruse, Master. I shouldn't have disbelieved Brother Wisdom. You really are that amazing! You can save me, yes, only you can save me!"
Everyone was stunned. What had happened? This person's attitude changed too quickly!
Li Wenhe asked Mingzhuo with his eyes, "What have you done?"
Mingzhuo said listlessly, "I made the thing that possessed me kowtow to me, and this copycat has followed suit."
Hou Linhao had always regarded the thing that possessed him as a god, but only after seeing Ming Zhuo completely defeat and subdue it did he realize Ming Zhuo's power.
If that's the case, why doesn't he go and ask Mingzhuo for help?
Hou Linhao: "Is it because that bitch Ruan Tiantian offended you? Master, I've locked her up. When I get back, I'll beat her up and make her kowtow to you and apologize."
He Wangyao couldn't stand it anymore, "That's your wife!"
Hou Linhao continued to stare at Ming Zhuo with fervor: "That's right, she's my wife. Whether she lives or dies is up to me, isn't it? Master, how about I turn her into a human pig and offer her to you?"
He eagerly awaited Mingzhuo's response, as if he would immediately carry it out if Mingzhuo simply nodded.
Everyone felt a chill run down their spines.
This person has gone completely insane, more terrifying than any demon crawling out of the deepest hell.
Gu Xu stepped forward and pulled Ming Zhuo behind him, blocking that crazy, burning gaze.
Li Wenhe was a step too slow; he could only step forward and kick Hou Linhao to the ground, coldly saying, "Shut up!"
