Chu Lu originally thought that Mao Xingchang was in trouble, but when he hurried over and changed his perspective, he saw Han Lenian's face covered in blood. The first hand on the right side of the clenched fist was still carrying the momentum forward. Feeling the strength of this body, it was estimated that if Han Lenian didn't die, he would lose half his life.
Chu Lu froze for a moment, ready to stop, but he almost immediately knew why Mao Xingchang had called him over in such a hurry.
He does not have control over this body.
——Not surprising.
Since Han Li has got such a "knife", he must have a way to control it to prevent the knife from hurting himself.
The body is like a puppet, with almost no ability to move actively.
But after all, Chu Lu was pulled here by Mao Xingchang and was not the original soul of this body, so he was less restrained. Moreover, unlike Mao Xingchang, he had enough experience to deal with the current situation.
The fist blew away with a fierce force. At this critical moment, Han Lenian tilted his head almost without any hope. The fist that could break bones just passed by his ear by a hair's breadth.
Han Lenian secretly said "That was a close call", but he couldn't help but feel a slightly subtle feeling in his heart.
This subtlety was indeed verified in the following scene. The opponent seemed to understand his fighting style very well and anticipated all his subsequent evasive directions, controlling the attack to pass by his body.
As if to avoid hurting him.
Is it because Han Li still wants to use his body?
No, that's not right.
Judging from the old man's attitude just now, it was clear that he only wanted to save his life.
Seeing that Han Li had just had his bones broken by him and now he was sitting up without any injury, it was clear that Han Li had some treatment methods and did not care about the damage to his body.
Then why?
At this critical moment, all kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind. Han Lenian hastily turned his head to avoid the sharp nails, but a bloody wound was still left on his body. Even if the opponent intended to let him go, Han Lenian still had to concentrate on dodging at his current level.
Moreover, similar situations would be fine once or twice, but after they happened too many times, Han Li, who was manipulating the situation behind the scenes, naturally discovered that something was wrong.
Perhaps it was because he was in a favorable position now that he felt relaxed, or perhaps it was because he was certain that Han Lenian could not escape from his grasp, Han Li even smiled with interest.
But in contrast to this laughter, Chu Lu immediately felt the restraints on his body become heavier, and he had less room to make small moves. However, Han Li did not control this body to continue attacking this time, but controlled it to retreat and kneel in front of him.
He looked up at the monster he had put together with his own hands, and after a while, he chuckled.
"He is still conscious."
He looked at it for a long time, not knowing where he got the conclusion from, and said in an affirmative tone.
Then he laughed again: "Interesting, really interesting... You are worthy of it."
Chu Lu thought his words were a bit strange, so he asked about Mao Xingchang's current situation, but Mao Xingchang seemed even more confused than him, full of bewilderment: [I don't know, Brother Chu, I don't know... There's no such thing in the plot?!]
Chu Lu hesitated for a moment.
After all, he has fought for this body several times, so he has some understanding of the composition of "Wu Chen": residual soul, resentment, and corpse parts.
The "consciousness" the other party is talking about is obviously not the latter two.
So what was wrong with the composition of the "residual soul" at the beginning? Judging from Han Li's tone, it seemed that he knew the owner of the residual soul.
These little things between the villains will not be reflected in the plot. Similarly, they have little impact on the main plot, so don't take them too seriously.
On the other side, Han Li had already controlled Wu Chen to lower his head.
The old man stretched out his hand, as if to cover its head.
Because the battle stopped, Mao Xingchang, who was returned to his body: !!!
[Brother Chu!!]
Overwhelmed by the overwhelming sense of terror, Mao Xingchang subconsciously asked for help.
But Chu Lu glanced at Han Lenian, who was lying on the ground exhausted and could barely move a finger, and sighed: "He probably doesn't have the energy to get up and hit you now."
Mao Xingchang was stunned for a moment, and finally remembered that today was his final scene. He really deserved to die, but he was just a minor villain, and it wouldn't have a big impact on the evaluation no matter who killed him.
However, he still tried his best to avoid the hand and said anxiously: [What should he do? !]
"He" naturally refers to Han Lenian.
According to the original plot, the Son of Destiny should kill "Wu Chen" today, and then take advantage of Han Li's unpreparedness to kill the boss.
However, Han Lenian's current condition was obvious to everyone. He was completely exhausted. Not only could he not fight back, he couldn't even move.
If he dies now, he will continue to possess other bodies. By then, no one will know who will be in Han Lenian's body!
Although Mao Xingchang was slacking off, he didn't expect Destiny Child to be finished! Although the series world has many pillars and will not collapse so easily, the death of a Destiny Child will also shake the world, not to mention the series of chain reactions that follow.
According to Article 35 of the Special Implementation Regulations, we have to save the child of destiny even at the risk of destroying the plot... Moreover, in the current situation, the plot no longer fits.
However, when the time really came, Mao Xingchang realized that the choice was not in his hands at all, and he couldn't even move.
[rest assured,]
Chu Lu comforted: [Someone is coming.]
Anyone?!
Mao Xingchang was originally trying his best to resist Han Li's control, but he was distracted for a moment and his head was immediately held down. The scene in front of his eyes went black and he was completely separated from his body.
…
…………
At the same moment, the entire secret room began to shake violently.
The talismans covering the walls lit up, but were extinguished in an instant, swept away by the dark flames and turned into ashes, and the rubble above rolled down.
Han Li's expression changed completely.
He moved his stiff body, trying to avoid the falling rocks, but his body, which was gloomy and had been mostly corroded by death, moved slowly and he could not avoid it at all.
He moved his stiff fingers, and with his remaining spiritual power, he formed a hand seal to hold up a protective shield, but it was swaying under the spiritual pressure from above.
——The ceremony was halfway through, which was when he was at his weakest.
A large hole was violently torn open above the head, and the moonlight poured in, illuminating the dark room underground.
Han Lenian, who had just managed to find a corner and save his life among the rubble, used up his last bit of strength. He looked up and saw a woman in cheongsam jumping down from above. The pointed heel of her shoe touched the bottom, leaving a spider-web-like mark on the ground.
Han Lenian opened his eyes wide in shock, but the other person was even more shocked than him.
The hoarse voice was blown by the wind and had a trembling tail. "Why are you here?!"
Li Shengru sneered, "Where do you think I am? Do you think you can hold me back with just those rubbish?"
As she said this, she walked forward.
The spiritual power cleared a flat path under her feet, and the swaying shield in front of Han Li shattered like a bubble.
But at that moment, Han Li suddenly calmed down, and he even forced a smile, as if he was the respected head of the Han family in the meeting of the three families.
He said slowly, "This is my Han family's family affair. When Patriarch Li comes to visit our family, the Han family will naturally treat him as a distinguished guest. But do you think we should intervene when the Han family is teaching a useless child a lesson?"
Li Shengru didn't intend to waste time talking to him, nor did he want to pay attention to this kind of nonsense where the two of them were clearly at loggerheads but were still pretending to be nothing.
She snorted coldly, took a step closer, and asked bluntly: "Where is the way to survive?!"
Han Li suddenly laughed.
"Aren't we alike? We're just trying to survive... coming back from the dead, ha, coming back from the dead... You're even crazier than me... cough cough..."
Li Shengru didn't waste time talking to him. She kicked him and stepped directly on his right shoulder blade, crushing it twice. She repeated in a cold voice: "I ask you, where is your way out?!"
Han Li didn't care too much about the damage to the body that was about to be abandoned. His old and hoarse voice sounded like a rusty saw cutting back and forth on a wooden board. "Okay, I can tell you... ahem... as long as, as long as you help me complete the ritual..."
Han Lenian, who had breathed a sigh of relief, felt his body tense up and almost jumped up when he heard this.
He recognized the man as the patriarch of the Li family from his attire. Although he didn't know why the person in front of him was not Mr. Xiang, he was not familiar with the other person.
Moreover, the experience of being almost crushed to death by the rubble just now made Han Lenian feel completely unsure.
——The other party didn't take his intentions into consideration at all when he took action.
Han Lenian barely managed to hold himself up, and heard a muffled sound that made his teeth ache, followed by a cold female voice, "Who gave you the illusion that I was negotiating terms with you?"
Han Lenian suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. At least he didn't have to worry about being killed in return.
A high pile of rubble nearby seemed to tremble twice due to instability, and the stones rolled down, revealing the twisted limbs underneath.
It was the one just now...
Thinking back to the fight just now, the other party had held back on him, as if to protect him. Because of this feeling, Han Lenian couldn't call him a "monster" in his heart.
He remembered seeing a similar introduction in the book Zhuang Zhan gave him.
This thing is called a "corpse puppet", right? But it seems a little different from a normal corpse puppet.
And the old man just said, "conscious"?
Thinking back to the first time he encountered it on Ghost Mountain, the opponent seemed to be easily knocked over by him, and there had been no movement since then. Now thinking about it, it was too easy to deal with.
Han Lenian felt mixed emotions for a moment: Is it because he is still conscious that he is unwilling to hurt others?
As he was thinking about this, he saw the finger in the middle of the stone suddenly tremble.
Han Lenian suddenly realized something, his pupils shrank, and he shouted a warning, "Be careful——!"
However, the corpse puppet that attacked Li Shengru at such a high speed didn't even touch her hair, and bounced out at an even faster speed, embedding heavily into the stone wall beside it.
Li Shengru exerted force with his feet again. Although Han Lenian was some distance away, he could still hear the crisp sound of bones cracking over there.
The female voice mocked: "That's all you can do?!"
Han Li seemed to have lost consciousness. Despite being badly injured, he showed no sign of pain. Instead, a smile suddenly broke out on his wrinkled face.
The smile grew bigger and bigger, and blood oozed out of his mouth and nose, but even so, the corners of his lips, which had been stretched to the limit, were still raised. His whole face looked weird and terrifying, like a demon.
“Haha… cough… hahahahahaha—”
With an inexplicable uneasiness gripping his heart, Li Shengru put more force on his feet, but his voice was filled with fear that he himself was not aware of, "What are you laughing at?!"
As soon as she said this, she realized that there was a tremor in her tone.
