Chapter 161 Another Address
Soul Peeper is Lin Qiqi's occupation card.
Abilities are cards that can transform other cards into specific ability cards exclusive to her profession.
"Just like [Stimulating Soul Power], it can activate a part of your potential power by enhancing the power of your soul, and this power lasts for more than three hours." Lin Qiqi introduced.
She seemed to be showing off.
"In addition to [Soul Stimulation], I also have [Soul Fixation Spell]. However, the effect of this card ability is not very good. It can only make people temporarily dazed for about three seconds."
"You are very strong."
"Thank you for the compliment. In addition, the Soul Peeper can observe the soul power of other people, including the state and potential of the soul, and use this to judge a person's strength, whether he is a human or some other monster."
Hearing this, Luo Xi's eyes lit up.
This ability is very strong.
For Luo Xi, the understanding of the strength of ability depends entirely on its usefulness and whether it is replaceable.
If it is an irreplaceable ability, or an extremely rare ability, then it can get a high score from Luo Xi.
Obviously, the ability of [Soul Peeping] belongs to this category.
Because according to Lin Qiqi, she can even judge the other person's mood, whether they are nervous or fearful, by the state of their soul.
This is so useful.
The way Luo Xi looked at Lin Qiqi was obviously different from before.
At this moment it was like staring at a priceless treasure.
Not to mention that under Lin Qiqi's [Soul Power Stimulation], not only his thinking became sharper, but he also no longer felt headaches.
In addition, Lin Qiqi also has a method of [soul communication] to transmit information.
Just like just now, she can convey the contents of the Buddhist verses on the nine merit boxes in her memory through physical contact, without the need for verbal transmission. It can be said to be extremely secretive, and it is also a very practical ability.
Now that he had nine Buddhist verses, Luo Xi thought about it and connected all the contents of these Buddhist verses together.
Some Buddhist verses are ordinary, and many people know and have heard of them. However, by using words and strokes with specific content, they can be interpreted to mean something new.
This is another password.
And the parent book is still the book "Memory".
The content interpreted this time is still an 'address', or more precisely, a location.
"Lightless, Land, 4, 27"
Even Luo Xi felt it was a bit abstract after interpreting the content.
Of course, this must be a position, but it doesn't seem like a position.
If you give it to someone randomly and ask them to judge where it is, they will definitely be confused and it will be almost impossible for them to give a reasonable suggestion.
But Luo Xi knew.
He understands himself.
Who is he himself?
A person who likes to set up many prerequisites and then create puzzles based on this almost unreal foundation.
What he can see is the puzzle, and beneath the obvious puzzle are invisible preconditions.
These conditions need to be guessed.
What does it rely on?
Habit!
For example, when a person encounters a fork in the road, he will always turn in the same direction; some people will always go to a fixed number window to get tableware; some people only drink bubble tea.
That's the habit.
Something invisible, but it does exist.
So when a strange puzzle appears, it is impossible for others to guess the prerequisites of the puzzle, only Luo Xi knows.
"In the same scene, that is, still in Youzuo Temple, the lightless place. Even this Yellow Spring Road and the Ten Kings Hall cannot be completely without light. As for the two numbers 4 and 27, we don't know what they are yet. But, for example, what are the coordinates, the X coordinate and the Y coordinate?"
There was a hint of excitement in Luo Xi's eyes.
Although this was a puzzle left behind by him, it did not stop Luo Xi from challenging himself to solve it.
"What are you thinking about?" Lin Qiqi came over and asked.
Luo Xi knew that Lin Qiqi was familiar with Youzuo Temple, so he asked, "Qiqi, do you know if there is any dark, completely lightless area in this place?"
I thought Lin Qiqi would think about it, but she almost blurted out: "Yes, it's the Buddhist temple under the well. If you don't have a flashlight or a torch, it will be pitch black after you go down, and you can't see anything."
Luo Xi nodded.
If it is as Lin Qiqi said, then the place without light should be the Buddhist temple under the well.
With Lin Qiqi around, many things become much easier.
For example, how to get out of the Yellow Springs Road. If Luo Xi is alone, he needs to look for clues, which will inevitably take a lot of time.
But since Lin Qiqi is here, all we have to do is follow her.
"I was poisoned before, so I planned to kill myself, but now there is no need. You bandaged my wounds, and after I triggered the power of my soul, at least I won't be poisoned to death. There are things that need to be done, and people that need to be killed!"
Lin Qiqi had a murderous look on her face at this time.
You are not allowed to take action in Youzuo Temple, but Luo Xi did not remind Lin Qiqi. Naturally, she knew this rule, but in fact, not being able to take action does not mean that you cannot kill people.
There are many ways to get around the rules.
Next, Luo Xi followed Lin Qiqi around to the back of the Hall of Ten Kings and found a row of cushions in a dilapidated house.
"Sit down and chant with me." Lin Qiqi pulled Luo Xi over, and they sat next to each other and closed their eyes. Lin Qiqi chanted a sentence and Luo Xi followed suit.
"What sutra is this?"
"Ten Kings Sutra, don't ask, just recite it carefully, okay?"
The Ksitigarbha Hall is a side hall, dark and quiet. Standing at the door is a monk who is tall and mighty, holding a ruler, with eyebrows as long as a beard. There is nothing inside, only a row of cushions for meditation. If someone comes, the monk will say: "You can only leave, not come in!"
A room that allows people to leave but not enter is very strange. If you don’t know much about this place, you will definitely be puzzled.
However, there are a very small number of Shiyi people who know the inside story and know that this is the exit to leave the hidden area of Huangquan Road.
The originally quiet room was suddenly filled with the sound of chanting.
A female voice reads, and then a male voice reads.
The cooperation is very tacit.
"Okay, we're out."
Lin Qiqi opened her eyes at this time and stood up from the mat.
Her injuries were still severe, but after activating her soul power, she was able to offset the pain, fatigue and discomfort caused by the injuries to a certain extent.
Luo Xi also looked around and thought it was interesting.
As for this method of escape, if you don't explore and study it carefully, you can't even think of it or find it.
This really saves me a lot of time.
"Let's go to the Buddhist temple underground." Lin Qiqi pulled Luo Xi and walked out.
Go out of the main hall, go around to the side path, walk up two stone steps, and you will reach the wooden tower that Luo Xi had seen in the distance before.
This place is like a wilderness, there are even weeds and no one takes care of it. The wooden tower looks okay from a distance, but when you look closer, you will find that it is extremely dilapidated and seems to be crumbling.
When the wind blows, you can hear the tinkling sound of the wind chimes above.
In a very inconspicuous place here, there is a wellhead built with a wooden fence.
But it can be seen that it has been abandoned long ago and is covered with dry weeds.
This is clearly within the city, but who would have thought that between high-rise buildings and in a bustling residential area, there would be such a temple, such an abandoned place and a dry well that looked like it might be haunted.
Here, there were a few people who were recalling memories standing around, with no intention of going down.
Many of them were people I had seen before at the Manjushri Bodhisattva worship site.
Among them is Lao Jin.
But at this moment, Lao Jin was completely different from his previous high-spirited self. Now he looked very sad.
the reason is simple.
There was a strange shadow behind him.
Even in the daytime, the shadow is clearly visible, which can be said to be very strange.
"Ha, this guy is so unlucky, just like you!" Lin Qiqi couldn't help but laughed, but it seemed that her wound was affected and she grimaced in pain.
"Is it a bad lot?"
"Yes, it's a very bad one. It's a very bad omen. Don't look back as the road ahead is long. If you look back, you may lose your life."
"Can't turn back?"
"Well, if you turn back you will die."
"Then don't look back."
"It's not that easy!" Lin Qiqi explained: "The shadow behind him will tempt him to look back in every possible way. In addition, many things, habitual or sudden, may trigger the action of looking back. So, if he is not careful, he will die immediately."
The two walked over.
Lao Jin was in a bad mood, but his eyes lit up when he saw Luo Xi. He greeted him hurriedly, then walked over stiffly.
"Brother, what about the sins behind you?" Lao Jin was extremely surprised.
If you are entangled in sin, it is impossible to get rid of it unless you exchange the fortune stick with someone else.
The question is who would be so stupid as to exchange this kind of solution?
So Lao Jin was very surprised how Luo Xi got rid of his sins.
"The sinful monk has achieved his goal and is gone." Luo Xi told the truth.
One of his interpretations was: Good deeds will bring you blessings.
So, if you can tell the truth, just tell the truth, it should be beneficial.
But whether to say it in full depends on Luo Xi's mood.
Lao Jin obviously didn't believe it, but he also knew that no one could say such a thing directly.
"Anyway, everything will be fine as long as I don't look back. Don't look back, don't look back. If I look back and see that I'm going to die, I don't believe it. This time, if I go down and get the seventh fortune stick, I can pass the level." Lao Jin muttered.
"Then why don't you go down?"
"Brother, the bell is about to ring!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the bell rang.
This is the second round of bell ringing from Youzuo Temple.
Every time, the Buddha statues here will come out to 'kill people'.
This is a mechanism to reduce manpower.
It is said that each time, it will be more dangerous than the last, and more people will die.
Lin Qiqi came over and told Luo Xi that it was too dangerous to go down now.
"There are many Buddha statues in the underground temple, and the environment is special, so it's impossible to hide. It's safer to wait until the bell rings again before going down."
Luo Xi had no objection.
