Chapter 347: Washing away the foul air



Although I didn't understand what that sentence meant, I was sure that it was a question, so it was asking me whether I wanted to save Yunwen and asked me to authorize him. That should be the logic. I followed Hu Lingshang's previous instructions and nodded.

At this time, the umbrella began to move on its own, and not long after, a burst of white smoke came out from the tip of the umbrella. The white smoke lingered on the top of Yunwen's head for a long time, and finally floated down, rushing into Yunwen's crown. At the same time, when I looked at the Zhenming umbrella again, the black butterfly-like pattern on it had disappeared. I turned it over and over twice to look for it, but I really couldn't find the pattern.

"No need to look for it. Once there is no 'borrowing relationship' between you and it, it will not let you see the ghost butterfly pattern." Hu Lingshang said.

Just as Hu Lingshang finished speaking, I saw a little ink on the corner of her umbrella, but it was only a tiny dot. Can it be seen or not? It was really strange.

I was thinking about these things when I suddenly saw Yunwen's fingers move, obviously she was conscious. I was immediately overjoyed and hurried over to hold her hand, looking forward to saying the first words to her. After all, this is the moment I have been looking forward to for so many days. Now that my wish is about to come true, I am naturally very excited. I have fantasized about this many times, and each time it seemed so distant and unreal like a dream.

I held her hand tightly, and she opened her eyes. I looked at her and whispered softly, "Yunwen, are you awake? How do you feel now? Are you okay?"

She sat up slowly. Her posture was very stiff and wooden, without any of her former elegance and gentleness. At this moment, it felt like her body was barely supported by her spine. The movement of her arms and elbows seemed awkward and intermittent, but the speed of movement was not affected. It was just that it was uncomfortable to watch them together.

I remember that after the four-armed white ape and the monster Joseph were resurrected, their movements were somewhat different from before. I think this is a common problem. However, when a person has been dead for a long time, his muscles have already begun to decompose. Without muscles, he can only use a certain consciousness to control his body bones, so he must appear very dull and stiff. This is not surprising.

She turned her neck and looked at me for a long time. I thought she would be very happy to see me, but she just lowered her head and stopped talking.

I was very surprised. What kind of reaction was this? Could it be that I made a mistake and it wasn't Zhang Yunwen who was woken up?

"Lingshang, what happened to her? Could it be that the muscles supporting her head are not strong enough to support her head, so it droops down?" I asked.

Hu Lingshang sighed, shook his head, and said, "Zhou Lang, have you ever thought about why the Root of Heaven and Earth, the Cockroach Monster, the Four-Armed White Ape, and the Prisoner Ryan were so loyal to the Curser after they were resurrected?"

"W-why?" I asked anxiously.

"This Yin-suppressing Umbrella was created by the Lord of the Ghost Den. Its function is to enslave living beings. That's why its soul consciousness must be turned into residual spirit so that it can be used as its slave. Do you understand what I mean, Zhou Lang?" Hu Lingshang asked.

"So, to become a residual soul is actually to enslave the soul, right?" I asked.

Hu Lingshang nodded and said, "Yes, in this case, if someone uses the residual spirit to revive something, that thing will be controlled by the residual spirit and will definitely regard the releaser as the master. It will only obey and not reply. It will do whatever you say without complaint. Just like you, Zhou Lang, want Sister Yunwen to commit suicide now, she will do it without reservation and will do it until you are satisfied. Unless you cancel the order in her eyes, she will stop. Although the residual spirit has awakened Sister Yunwen's consciousness, it is also controlling her body and all her power of action."

I was stunned. I was thinking before, if Ryan was obedient, he would have told me. Why did Joseph, the four-armed white ape, and the root of heaven and earth, who had nothing to do with him, fight to their death for the curser Peter? Now I basically understand.

It's like a computer that has been repaired but the hardware has been replaced. It originally had an Intel processor, but now it has been replaced with other second-hand, unknown brand processors. This ultimately only allows the computer to be restored to use. It is still the original computer, but in fact the functions and utility have changed a lot. The principle of resurrection of the residual soul is probably similar. It has spirit but is disabled. Since it is disabled, it is naturally no longer spiritual.

I sighed and said, "So, now that I can't contact her, I can only give her orders, right?"

Hu Lingshang nodded and said, "Not only that, if Zhou Lang doesn't tell her the exact location, position, and what she is doing, she will just follow you and won't leave until you give her an order. After she completes the order, she will immediately come back to find you. If she can't find you, she will keep circling around the place where she last saw you until her second death comes."

"A robot!" I shook my head and sighed.

"What is a robot?" Hu Lingshang asked.

I covered my face with my hands and rubbed them constantly, feeling very distressed. Yunwen was only conscious at the moment, but she was completely unconscious. This was probably what was meant by being out of control. So I could only save her life, but I couldn't say I saved her life. She was like a walking corpse. What was the difference?

After roughly understanding the situation, I also asked Lingshang if there were any other problems. She told me that I must protect Yunwen's head, especially the crown of the head. She said that the residual soul would only be hidden there, regardless of whether there was brain tissue there, it would only stay there. If a hole was opened in the head, the residual soul would disappear, and Yunwen would immediately fall into a state of death again.

Besides, Yunwen's body will only rot day by day. After all, there is no metabolism, no blood circulation, and no organ use. It is no different from the state of death. Therefore, Hu Lingshang also asked me to think clearly about how to treat Yunwen in the future.

There is one thing that is a blessing in disguise, that is, Yunwen and I have a strange master-servant relationship. She won't talk to me, and when she sees me she will just lower her head and wait for me to arrange things. I am the only one who is respected, but to other people around her, she is still Yunwen. This is the only benefit of the resurrection of the residual soul.

This means that I, the only one who wants to talk to Zhang Yunwen the most, don’t have the chance for the time being, and it is a blessing that anyone except me can communicate with her.

After Hu Lingshang finished explaining all this, perhaps because she felt that her nose could not stand the smell of corruption, she prepared to leave. Before leaving, I asked her how she knew all this, but she just smiled at me and did not answer.

There was only me and Yunwen, who was emitting a strong corpse odor, left in the room. She kept staring at me with her head down. I walked over and hugged her. She still had that wooden look on her face. Her body didn't react at all as I hugged her. But I was already very satisfied. At least she was still by my side and had regained consciousness, which was already a luxury.

I helped her tidy up the hair that was blocking her eyes and was full of dirt. I thought that Yunwen was a flight attendant before and was used to being respectable. Even if her body has not recovered yet, she should not be allowed to look so miserable.

So I looked her in the eyes and gave her my first instruction: "Follow me to the downstream direction of the spring."

She nodded stiffly.

I walked in front and she followed behind me. Her steps were a little stiff, but she could still keep up. I couldn't help but feel like I was chasing a corpse. When we reached the first floor, Yunwen also followed behind me. Bailu was cooking. She couldn't help but cover her nose and frowned, but she was afraid that I would be angry, so she kept apologizing. I expressed my understanding and said it was okay. After passing her, I went out the backyard door, came to the spring pool, and took her to the downstream along the edge.

If I say I did it myself, it would be a bit rogue. Since it was still dark, I could avoid looking at her, so I could only say something rogue: "Take off your clothes and wash yourself."

Yunwen was indeed obedient. She took off her clothes that smelled of earth layer by layer, and then entered the pool, letting the waterfall from upstream hit her body. She looked so thin that it made people feel distressed.

At this moment, the dark clouds suddenly dispersed, and the moonlight shone down, shining on Yunwen's body facing the water. My eyes widened immediately, and at the same time I also saw a surprising scene, Yunwen's pale face showed a blush.

She, she is shy?
