Huo Jixiu was unconscious for three whole days. The prayer beads in his hand trembled slightly, on the verge of collapsing.
Mu Tiantian told Qi Tong about his situation.
After scanning his body, Qi said, "He's physically quite healthy, but he has a lot of resentment, like a demon. However, I can't detect the specific levels. Based on your description, it might be schizophrenia, but not very serious, because the split personality isn't complete."
According to its meaning, during the two years that Huo Jixiu became a vegetable, he lost his memory and was almost no different from a child. Generally speaking, the environment has a great influence on a person's growth. If a person lives in different environments, the personality he eventually forms will be completely different.
However, Huo Jixiu's memories did not merge after his spirit returned to his body, which is why he developed a split personality.
Qi Tong: [I think a major reason might be that the original body rejects the resentment of its own soul, or refuses to integrate memories due to certain stimuli. Because the resentment has been suppressed by the black wooden prayer beads, the new personality has also been suppressed due to the influence of the resentment.]
Mu Tiantian: [But before, after he took off his prayer beads, besides being more resentful, no new personality appeared. Why is it different now? Is it because the prayer beads are missing?]
Qi Tong: [It might be related, but not the main reason. Previously, the new personality was likely suppressed for too long, and even without the prayer beads, it wouldn't emerge in the short term. External influences might have caused the personality conflict. Currently, perhaps the two personalities are vying for control of the body, which is why the resentment is so unstable.]
Mu Tiantian: [Could it be because I hypnotized him, trying to merge his memories, that he turned out like this?]
Seven unifications: [Highly probable.]
After examining Huo Jixiu's condition, Mu Yu offered a suggestion: "I think we still need to find the root cause of his resentment. We need to look into his life story."
Mu Tiantian replied, "But we can't see the life stories of living beings."
She did the same thing when she first met him, but because his physical body was still alive, she couldn't see his past as a living being.
“This will do.” Mu Yu said, taking out the jade prayer beads that he had lent to Mu Tiantian earlier. “This bead is a hundred years old and has a lot of spiritual energy. You can see a person’s entire life through it, and you can also see a living being’s life through it. However, it is best to drive the soul out of the body and wait until the resentment is cleared before returning it to the body. Otherwise, if the resentment is not completely cleared, there will still be danger.”
Upon hearing this, Mu Tiantian decided to try his method.
In order not to disturb others, the group escorted Huo Jixiu back to the villa.
Mu Tiantian took off her Buddhist prayer beads, and resentment quickly filled the entire bedroom.
Mu Yu used a magical artifact to force Huo Jixiu's soul out of his body.
Mu Tiantian quickly took control of his soul, stood opposite his spirit, and then placed the jade prayer beads in front of his brow, gazing into his eyes.
Huo Jixiu looked into her bright eyes and gradually became lost in them.
Mu Tiantian read his life story in great detail.
But she saw an unexpected person in his memory...
After she broke up with Huo Jixiu, he was so shocked that he fell into a coma for a month. When he woke up, he had no memory of her. In order to confirm whether he really didn't remember, Qi Tong arranged for her to meet Huo Jixiu.
The test showed that Huo Jixiu really didn't remember her, and only then did she feel relieved and leave.
She was supposed to wait to be recalled by the system, but Gu Yichen knew that she still didn't give up after breaking up with Huo Jixiu.
Left with no other choice, Mu Tiantian bought a plane ticket to go abroad, declaring that she would never come back and even went so far as to say that if he continued to pester her, they would not even be able to remain friends.
Gu Yichen relented, saying he was going abroad on business and would drop her off on the way; coincidentally, they had bought the same plane tickets.
However, he didn't get on the plane. But unexpectedly, not long after Mu Tiantian left this world, Huo Jixiu remembered things about her. Although there weren't many, he still wanted to find her and ask her about them. But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't stand up.
He cooperated actively with the treatment and was showing signs of improvement. However, Gu Yichen happened to run into him when he went to the hospital.
Gu Yichen discovered that Huo Jixiu remembered Mu Tiantian, so he told him personally that the person Mu Tiantian was talking about marrying was Gu Yichen.
Huo Jixiu was furious after hearing this, and his resentment was fully unleashed. He even tried to stand up and strangle him. Gu Yichen was so frightened that he fled the hospital.
It just so happened that Mu Yu was in the hospital and gave him Buddhist prayer beads. It was from that moment that Huo Jixiu truly forgot about her, and his resentment was completely suppressed.
Seeing this, Mu Tiantian couldn't help but complain, "This Gu Yichen is really infuriating."
Han Muning couldn't help but ask Mu Yu in a low voice, "What did you see?"
Mu Yu shook his head and shushed him.
The two waited quietly.
Huo Jixiu's memories continued to replay in Mu Tiantian's eyes.
She witnessed their first encounter.
Back then, he would scare tourists in the haunted house by turning into a skeleton or a rotting corpse, giving tourists an immersive experience. Mu Tiantian didn't activate the illusion because she wanted to save some points. She finally mentally prepared herself to enter the haunted house, but she was scared away by Huo Jixiu as soon as she entered.
She hadn't even recovered from leaving the haunted house when Huo Jixiu, sporting a terrifying ghost face, chased after her. She had no choice but to run while calling for Qi Tong to open the illusion, and finally managed to use a talisman to capture him and take him home.
His temperament is just like that of a child who hasn't grown up. He likes amusement parks and toys, especially fluffy dolls, but he can't touch them or possess people to enjoy them.
According to the information, he often mingled with some evil spirits in the amusement park, which is why the living beings were tainted with his resentment. This allowed him to use his ghost magic to appear in front of people, but he still could not touch people or objects.
Therefore, when he discovered that Mu Tiantian could touch him, he was overjoyed and hugged and pinched her.
When Mu Tiantian saw his childish reaction, she seriously suspected that the information provided by the system was wrong.
This guy isn't aloof at all.
She slapped Huo Jixiu's restless hand away and asked seriously, "Tell me, what is your last wish?"
Huo Jixiu looked at her with a pitiful expression, and said something that left Mu Tiantian speechless: "Can you let me pinch you again?"
As Mu Tiantian watched his vicious hand reach towards her face, she quickly took several steps back and angrily stopped him, "You're such a lecher! I'm warning you, behave yourself, or I'll beat you to a pulp!"
Huo Jixiu looked puzzled. "What is a lecherous ghost? What is soul scattered?"
"Don't play dumb with me. I'll ask you one more time, what are your last wishes?" Mu Tiantian asked with a serious expression.
But Huo Jixiu didn't take it seriously at all, and still couldn't help but want to get closer to her, asking curiously, "What is a last wish?"
Mu Tiantian looked him up and down, and asked suspiciously, "Do you...know who you are?"
Huo Jixiu shook his head.
