Chapter 90: One Soul and Two Souls
There was a storm outside the window.
Set up an iron pot on the carbon stove, pour a pot of hot water into two handfuls of pickles that have been cut into thin strips, and some sparks of Mars float with the heat.
The old man guarding the tomb brought two plates of fresh white tofu, then he took a silver dollar handed over by Lu Jiu to a corner of the house, leaving the main hall to the young man who was soaked and the black cat sitting opposite him.
"It's too storm outside, it's not a good place to chat... If I heard it right just now, would you like me to kill you?"
Cut a few pieces of tofu into the pot with a semi-circular wooden board, Lu Jiu couldn't help but ask,
Somehow, unlike the first meeting the day before yesterday, the performance of this dark green-eyed black cat just now always made him feel a little different, especially when he deliberately asked him to get that heart. This obviously prank-like behavior seemed a bit inconsistent in his opinion.
"One day in the future, I need your help to destroy my body, which is why I appear in front of you."
As if he could see Lu Jiu's confusion, his voice continued to sound in his mind. At the same time, the old man next to him suddenly stood up at a loss, touched the peppers from somewhere, crushed them and sprinkled them in a bowl and placed them in front of the black cat.
Obviously he was instructed.
"Is this cat your body?"
When Lu Jiu heard the meaning of the black cat's words, he was stunned for a moment.
"Of course not. This is just a place where I live in my remnant souls, and there is another soul in its body. You should have seen it before. Whenever a cat's eyes change into a different pupil, it is when he controls this cat demon."
"Forehead......"
Lu Jiu didn't know what to say, what happened in the past two days was really beyond his original expectations.
A journey to explore the mystery of the disappearance of his predecessor, he first ran into a mechanical puppet exactly like himself. He finally solved it, but he got the heart of himself becoming a monster. Now a cat demon with two souls popped up.
No wonder people always feel that the performance before and after is different. In combination, it is just two souls that are controlling.
"Boy, I will teach you how to kill me in the next period of time. Don't blame me for being straightforward. You are so weak that people are blindsided. I will die miserably in this state... Fortunately, there is still time. When I train you, I may have 20% chance."
I used my cat's claw to hold the wooden spoon, scooped two small pieces of tofu and some soup into the bowl, and then picked up the bowl and stuffed it into a mouthful.
"Hey, I haven't agreed yet. Can you stop talking to yourself here?"
To be honest, Lu Jiu has not yet clarified the situation and said with a frown.
"You are very disgusted with the existence of a zombie. What you want most now is to restore your body to its original state. I guess it's good, right?"
Put down the bowl and leaned against the chair, half of his legs hanging out. A good cat suddenly became a generous man, pointing out Lu Jiu's current secret and what he longed for the most.
"What's going on in my body?"
With a slight leaning forward, his own changes are the secret that Lu Jiu must figure out.
"How do I know?"
"Then you still..."
"My memories and he have nothing in common. He was the one who saved you twice. I can only guess what he did when I am awake occasionally."
"Since you can guess so well, why not guess what I am thinking now?"
The bowl I just picked up paused in front of me, and lightning suddenly rose outside the window.
This cat knows too much!
"Hahaha~ boy, this kind of fierceness is good. If a demon vein does not have such a spirit, it will be no different from the livestock raised. Unfortunately, the person you barely grinned is wrong."
He didn't care about Lu Jiu's murderous intentions at all, and the black cat continued,
"The battle just now is enough to prove that you are not a fool. You should understand that the other one I will save you twice and will have a plan. I have been sleeping for too long, and I don't know about his preparations over the years, and now I don't even know where his original body is. However, I can be sure that he should know how to reverse your current state. However, that method must be modified by him, and in the end you will only completely become a victim of his plan."
At the end of these words, Lu Jiu's mood became heavier and heavier.
......
On the morning of the third day of Zhengyang Festival, the rain finally eased and turned into the initial drizzle.
The only difference is that a thick fog caught the Changyi Station.
Another train to Qingding City is about to leave. Lu Jiu stood on the side of the platform, to be precise, facing the wilderness of the platform. There is no way. There are still people from Jingyesi guarding the platform, and everyone entering and leaving will be checked.
Even though most people in Jingyeshi think that the Heart-Grapping Ghost is a character who can change faces at any time, just like the wanted order issued only in Changyi City, they know that some things are of little use, so they still have to bite the bullet and do it.
When the train was about to start, Lu Jiu leaned forward and flipped into the train directly through the window. He had already bought the tickets. At this time, the ticket purchase method without any identity certificate undoubtedly provided him with considerable convenience.
He hung the pin behind the box door to make sure no one would come to disturb the door suddenly. He heard the whistle sound when the train started, and then Lu Jiu breathed a sigh of relief. He took off all the things on his body and leaned back on the seat, but he was not completely relaxed.
Because the black cat was squatting on the table in front of him, his eyes were still dark green when he met yesterday.
“How did you think about it last night?”
The black cat spoke actively.
"It was him who saved me seven days ago, and it was him who saved me the day before yesterday. Now you suddenly appear and want to cooperate with me to kill my savior, let alone this savior or another you... How can I trust you unless you are willing to disclose more information?"
Lu Jiu's mind was still lingering with what the guy said in front of him when he left the grave last night, and said with a pursed lips.
"Ha, you believe it or not, you can choose to refuse, and even tell him my existence directly without any problem. He is about to take the initiative again. I will wait until tomorrow night next time. Remember, his condition is similar to mine, and we appear alternately, but he doesn't know my existence. Except for the time he woke up much longer than me, once he falls into a deep sleep, he will not know what is happening outside."
The black cat seemed to be disdainful of Lu Jiu's request and suddenly stood up and walked out.
