Fresh "food"?
Having been with that friend for so long, Xu Hui would not be so naive as to think that the "food" he was talking about was real food. It must be something special.
Sure enough, the friend soon told him that if he wanted his mother to continue living, she must continuously absorb the essence of living people every day.
Once the vital energy of a living person is completely absorbed, that person will die, but the vital energy of a person can be absorbed for a period of time.
Therefore, during this period of time, he had to find the next "food" before the essence of the previous person was completely absorbed, just like replenishing supplies.
Once the fucking "food" is gone, you will starve to death.
If she "dies" again this time, she will never "come back to life" no matter what.
Therefore, if he wanted his mother to live, he would have to sacrifice the lives of others.
Xu Hui hesitated for a moment, and finally agreed decisively.
He had already lost his mother once, he couldn't lose her a second time!
Moreover, the life and death of others has nothing to do with him. People will die eventually. If they can help others survive before they die, it can be considered a significant contribution.
After thinking about it for a while, Xu Hui asked how to do it without any psychological burden.
It is not difficult to do this. You just need to choose a suitable location first and then set up two formations.
Xu Hui could learn how to arrange the two rooms by himself, but he was not sure about choosing a location. Finally, the friend took the initiative to go to his hometown and found a place for him in the back mountain.
As for the rest, it was left to Xu Hui to handle.
The Soul Devouring Formation required three ghosts as formation points, and they had to be ghosts that had died recently, but no one had died in their village during that period.
In order to set up the formation as soon as possible, Xu Hui had to harden his heart and find a few old, weak and sick people and find a way to attack them.
He chose these people in order to reduce his suspicion. After all, the possibility of these elderly patients and children dying in accidents was very high, and no one would think that he had deliberately used means to kill them in advance.
After the three people died, their graves were buried not far away. He set up a formation for their ghosts according to his previous plan, and then waited for the prey to fall into the trap.
The noise that the villagers heard in the back mountain at night was actually made by his mother.
If you want to lure the prey into taking the bait, you have to make some noise to attract them, so that someone will definitely be tempted to come up the mountain to check it out.
Lin Xi and the others knew what happened next. Two village cadres and town staff went up the mountain at night, followed the sound to the open space, and were trapped by the formation and could not escape.
The outsiders put up a sleight of hand, and the rest of the people couldn't even see that they were lying on the open ground.
Xu Hui thought that those four people would be enough for his mother to eat for a while, and then he would continue to make other noises to attract more people over.
But what he didn't expect was that everything ended like this, and his mother left him completely.
As Xu Hui spoke, his expression became crazy again.
"Why did you kill my mother? If it weren't for you, she would still be alive and with me! Give my mother back, give her back!"
Although his death may have had something to do with her the first time, he has tried his best to revive her!
But Lin Xi "killed" her again and burned her body to ashes, leaving no possibility of her resurrection.
So Lin Xi is actually the real murderer!
After Lin Xi knew everything about Xu Hui and his mother's past, she was too lazy to pay attention to him. She didn't even roll her eyes at him and continued to think about other problems.
Anyway, the three people in the village were killed by Xu Hui, and he will definitely not escape the death penalty.
But just letting him die like this would be too easy for him. We must squeeze out every last bit of surplus value from him.
In particular, we need to find out who Xu Hui’s so-called “friend” is.
Although from Xu Hui's perspective, that friend helped him a lot and was very good to him, didn't he think this kind of "good" was strange?
They were not related to each other, so why would the other party hand over those secret matters to him, and why would they help him so much unconditionally?
Lin Xi thought for a moment, and suddenly calculated Xu Hui's horoscope.
After thinking about it this way, she finally understood why the other party would help Xu Hui, an ordinary person, and teach him so many things.
It turns out that Xu Hui is actually a rare "refining furnace"!
The "refining furnace" that Lin Xi mentioned is actually a special fate. This kind of fate is very rare. Perhaps for ordinary people, such a fate is nothing, but for people in the Xuanmen, especially those who like to use unconventional ways to refine ghosts and monsters, this is definitely a fate with full gain attributes!
To put it simply, under normal circumstances, it may take a month to refine a ghost. However, if it is a "refining furnace" fate like Xu Hui, it may only take ten days, or even half a month or ten days.
It not only shortens the refining time, but also improves the effect.
No wonder the friend Xu Hui mentioned would inexplicably come to him, an ordinary person.
After learning about Xu Hui's special fate, and considering what his mother encountered later, Lin Xi looked at Xu Hui with pity in his eyes.
This guy was really sold and still helped others count money.
After Xu Hui angrily scolded Lin Xi for a few seconds, he was beaten by the old senior and Xiao Zhao with a punch and a slap each, leaving him speechless.
However, his hatred for Lin Xi, the "enemy who killed his mother", would not disappear, and even became stronger.
But when he was glaring at Lin Xi fiercely, he suddenly saw Lin Xi looking at him with pity, and that look made him feel something was wrong.
Lin Xi didn't let him guess, and said it immediately.
"Xu Hui, are you really stupid or just pretending to be stupid? You were sold and still helped people count the money. Have you ever thought about why your friend always shows up so strangely?"
The first time he fell ill and had surgery and wanted his mother to go to the city to take care of him, his friend happened to be going to his hometown and brought his mother over.
The first time, his mother died, and he contacted his friend, who arrived immediately.
Afterwards, his friend helped him and taught him things, and judging from Xu Hui's appearance, the other party should not have received any benefits from him.
"Nothing comes easy. Besides your mother, no one else will unconditionally help you or treat you well. You know this well enough. So, do you think your friend helped you so much because they're close to you?"
Xu Hui was stunned by Lin Xi's words.
He wanted to retort, saying that his friend was helping him selflessly because of their good relationship.
But he thought about it carefully and realized that before he decided to call his mother and ask her to come to the city, he and that friend didn't have a very deep friendship at all.
The two of them are not in the same circle at all, and basically they don't contact each other for a month or two.
But that day was a coincidence. He was about to make a phone call when he saw his friend sent a status saying that he was going somewhere.
Moreover, the other party took the initiative to contact him, saying that he remembered that Xu Hui's hometown was nearby, and asked him if there was anything he needed his help to bring over from his hometown.
Xu Hui was looking for someone to help pick up his mother at that time, and the other party's words were like a pillow given to him when he was sleepy!
So he told the other party about it directly. He was a little nervous at first, worried that the other party would not agree, but he did not expect that the other party would agree immediately.
