Just as Xie Qi was boredly flipping through the articles Zhan Ze had written in the past, he suddenly felt someone pulling his clothes.
Xie Qi didn't even bother to turn his head, and asked angrily in his mind: "948, why are you pulling me?"
However, to his surprise, 948's voice came from the table in front of him: "I didn't pull you."
Xie Qi raised his head suspiciously and looked at 948 who was sitting on the table in front of him. But at this moment, he felt someone tugging at his clothes again.
This time, Xie Qi jumped up from his chair, then quickly bent down, staring wide-eyed at the bottom of the table, muttering, "Fuck, is there a rat?"
Xie Qi glanced under the table but found no trace of a mouse. Just as he straightened up and was about to breathe a sigh of relief, the feeling of having his clothes pulled returned.
This time, Xie Qi finally stopped ignoring this anomaly. He slowly lowered his head and saw that the little pig carved out of white jade was biting his clothes tightly.
Seeing this, Xie Qi was stunned for a moment, but then he seemed to suddenly remember something important and an excited look appeared on his face.
He excitedly stretched out his hands, carefully took the white jade pig off his clothes, and then gently placed it on the table as if he were holding a rare treasure.
After the piglet was placed on the table, it struggled to move its body with its short legs, then slowly turned around and faced Xie Qi with its back.
As if he had no face to face Xie Qi.
Seeing this, Xie Qi stretched out his finger, poked the piglet, and then asked tentatively: "Zhan Ze?"
However, the piglet did not respond to Xie Qi. It still lay there quietly, not moving at all.
Xie Qi frowned upon seeing this. He spoke again, "You are Zhan Ze, right?"
After a while, the piglet finally responded: "It's me." Although the voice was not loud, it was loud enough for Xie Qi to hear clearly.
Xie Qi was immediately excited when he heard it. He said happily, "It's really you!"
Then, Xie Qi seemed to suddenly think of something and asked hurriedly, "That's not right. According to Mu Qianyu, you should have possessed this jade pendant half a month ago, but I have been carrying it with me all this time. Why didn't you tell me?"
When Zhan Ze heard this, he explained the reason to Xie Qi.
Back then, he was severely injured, his consciousness blurred. When he opened his eyes again, he found himself unable to move. His body seemed to be tightly bound by an invisible force, completely out of control, as if his whole body had turned to stone.
At first he thought it was just a dream, but in the end he found that it was not the case at all. He seemed to have really turned into a motionless dead object, and he didn't know what he had become.
It was not until the next day when he saw Xie Qi, who hung him around his waist, that he guessed it had turned into a jade pendant.
Because he could neither move nor speak, he could only follow Xie Qi and listen to what Xie Qi said every day.
But after Xie Qi returned to the capital, he quarreled with the impostor and threw the white jade pig he had given him out of the window. Only then did he realize that the jade pendant he was possessed by was not an ordinary jade pendant, but the gift he had given.
It was also at that time that he discovered that he could move and speak.
However, Zhan Ze was very confused. He couldn't understand why Xie Qi chose this waist pendant. After all, Xie Qi had more than one jade pendant hanging around his waist, so why did he choose this pig?
He, the dignified leader of the Shadow Pavilion, was actually possessing a pig? Even though this pig was completely white and only a quarter the size of a palm, it was still a pig after all!
It was precisely because of this that even though he could speak and move, when he found out what he was possessed by, Zhan Ze did not immediately recognize Xie Qi.
However, after hearing Zhan Ze's words, Xie Qi couldn't help but laugh out loud: "So the reason you haven't wanted to come out is because you've turned into a pig?"
Zhan Ze was obviously dissatisfied with Xie Qi's reaction. He grumbled, "Little Pig is still a pig. If others knew about this, it would be so embarrassing!"
Seeing this, Xie Qi reached out and took the piglet in his palm, saying softly, "The piglet is cute too. Have you forgotten? You said it was cute when it was chubby."
Zhan Ze seemed even more depressed after hearing what Xie Qi said: "If I had known this would happen, I would have picked a tiger as a waist pendant for you."
Xie Qi: "Since you are so reluctant, why are you willing to recognize me now?"
When Zhan Ze heard this, he immediately became a little embarrassed and stammered, "That...that's because you look very sad. I...I just want to comfort you."
A touching smile appeared on Xie Qi's face, and he said softly: "Actually, I was really sad, but now I'm fine. I feel relieved that I can find you."
Zhan Ze's heart softened after hearing Xie Qi's words. He hesitated for a moment, then stretched out his chubby front paws to hold up Xie Qi's head, and then asked uncertainly, "You said before that you could help me get a body. Is that true?"
Xie Qi: "Of course, I'll get it for you now."
As Xie Qi was speaking, he asked 948 for a clone, but 948 refused.
948: "Host, the protagonist's current appearance is not suitable for a clone. The clone's thoughts and activities are programmed, but the protagonist's current physical state is a soul. If you want to put a soul into a container, you need to create a flesh and blood body."
Xie Qi: "How to make it?"
Then 948 told Xie Qi the process of making the body. This body needed to be molded out of the best yellow clay first, and then the clay figure was sprinkled with activation powder, and then nourished with blood for three days before the soul could be placed into the body to be resurrected.
"What's wrong with you? Aren't you going to get your body for me? I don't want to stay in this little pig."
After hearing this, Xie Qi hesitated for a moment and said, "It will take a few days to create the body. You may need to stay in this waist pendant for now."
"Well, I know it won't be that easy." There was a hint of helplessness in his voice.
Seeing this, Xie Qi quickly comforted him, "Don't worry, I will finish it as soon as possible." After that, he turned around and started to get busy.
Xie Qi asked the secret guard to find a lot of yellow mud and pour it into a large basin.
From mixing the clay to completing the shaping of the entire body, Xie Qi did everything by himself.
