Chapter 2384 How to Make It Fearful
Can I clear out the bloody Jinghua members lurking among the people before the stage for the Japanese Wind Contest is completed?
The answer is: no.
Not to mention only a few months, even if the entire country's troops and horses were handed over to me, even if I was given several years, I might not be able to wipe them all out.
As the saying goes, ‘a small hermit is hidden in the wild, a big hermit is hidden in the city’. Although it is used to metaphor the spiritual realm, it can be applied to real situations.
Take these ancient organizations that are integrated with the people. It is really difficult to uproot them.
So what should I do to ensure that they don't cause trouble during the Zephyr Championship?
At least, don’t cause trouble in this Japanese Wind Contest I took over.
Scratching my head in distress, I continued to think hard.
Suddenly, an idea flashed: Yes, I can do something in advance to divert their attention! As a result, they would not be able to focus on the Zephyr Championship.
But what kind of things do you have to do to attract their attention?
Frowning, I murmured: "What is it that they desire or are afraid of?"
According to the tips Akahavi once gave me, what these ancient organizations desire most is probably fame and power.
If you have fame, you can have centripetal force. If you have power, you can do whatever you want.
Yes, that must be the case, but how can I use fame and power as bait to attract their attention?
Let the two queens jointly draft an edict to grant bloody purification, reputation and power, and lure the leader of the organization out?
No, no, no, this method will definitely not work. Unless the current leader of the Bloody Purification is a fool, it will not succeed at all. If the leader of the Bloody Purification is really a fool, even if the plan succeeds, is it useless? They can change to a more capable leader to lead them to a more glorious future.
It seems that power and fame are no longer enough, so we can only settle for the second best and take the second approach to see what they are afraid of.
By the way, what is the leader of Bloody Purification afraid of?
Power should be an option, but the ability to restrict this option is too weak. Don't forget, Anasta's parents died at the hands of bloody purification.
If power fails, then rely on strength.
But my current strength is too weak, and I can't even defeat the national power. Why should I make the people of Bloody Purification feel afraid?
Um.
After racking my brain and thinking hard, I fell into an endless loop. I wanted to start from myself and find an existence that could suppress the bloody purification, but I couldn't find such an existence. Because I couldn't find it, I started to search for more. I am anxious, thinking even more urgently, and looking for it even more vigorously, but how can I find something that does not exist in the first place!
So in this endless loop, I kept wandering back and forth, unable to find an exit, and I couldn't even return to the starting point.
Unknowingly, I fell into confusion, the things in front of me gradually blurred, and a faint sound began to ring in my ears.
There is still the dark sky, still the damp ground, still the sour smell, still the blazing flames, and the remains of bones used as firewood.
This is my conscious space.
I have no idea when I will fall into it, but I know that there are people I know here. Maybe they are not human, but so what?
I don’t know why, every time I come here, I feel a sense of relief from the world, as if I can temporarily unload my heavy burden and just be a traveler, a traveler who hugs his knees, stares at the bonfire, and quietly enjoys the dimness.
"There is no blue sky, no white clouds, and no fragrance of vegetation here. There are only piles of corpses and the pungent smell of corpses. But even so, you still come here every once in a while. Are you very free?"
Di Ruiji stood quietly by the bonfire. His long dark purple tongue slowly reached into the fire, hooked up a piece of burnt white bones, rolled it into his mouth, and started chewing.
I didn't answer its question, but looked at the bone fragments falling from the corner of its mouth with interest, and asked curiously: "Is it delicious?"
"You can have a taste."
I stared at the bonfire for a while. Through the dancing flames, I saw several skulls with only their skeletons left. They stared at me with pairs of black eyes. Although they had no pupils or even eyeballs, this kind of skulls were The feeling of staring remains: "Are they the bones of apes?"
"Humans" Di Ruiji paused and then said: "Half-humans, um, half-humans. According to the name at that time, they were forest fairies."
"Hiss" I took a breath: "Are you eating my people?"
"A tribesman?" Di Ruiji turned his head and glanced at me: "Yours?"
While staring at each other, I saw deep confusion in the depths of its eyes.
"You are not a forest elf, not even a human. How can you be of the same race as them?"
"Yes, I'm not a human, but I am a fairy. No matter how you say it, the forest fairy has half of my blood."
"Fairy. Well, it can be considered a fairy." Di Ruiji said lightly: "But so what?"
"How? I haven't thought about this. I just think it feels weird to eat the same kind of corpses."
"It's very strange." Di Ruiji rarely agreed with my point of view: "Then don't eat it, let me eat it."
I:
Di Ruiji stared at me for a while, then suddenly smiled and said: "It's useless for you to look at me like this. In the eyes of humans, I am a monster, a disaster, and an ominous existence. People like me Isn’t it strange that the most evil existence eats human corpses?”
I ignored Di Ruigi's self-deprecation and stared at it with a serious expression. After a while, I slowly said: "I don't think you are a monster. On the contrary, I think you are more like a companion than many humans."
Di Ruiji's eyes flashed, and purple light suddenly appeared, as if he was awakened by my words.
I took advantage of the situation and said, "I think you are very humane and can be trusted."
Di Ruiji's eyes that had just lit up dimmed again.
"Uh, did I say something wrong?" I said awkwardly.
"No, it's not." Di Ruiji rolled up another bone, chewed it, and said calmly: "I was too nervous and forgot about your current situation."
"My situation?" I scratched my head and asked in confusion, "What situation?"
"nothing."
"Your uncle, you stopped talking after trying to satisfy my appetite. It's so bad for you!"
Di Ruiji chewed the bone with a calm expression, as if he didn't hear my roar.
When I had finished scolding and yelling, while taking a breath, Di Ruiji slowly swallowed the broken bones and dregs in his mouth, and said slowly: "You looked very melancholy when you came here, as if you were worried. , you might as well talk and listen.”
"Oh? Can you help me solve it?"
"I can't." Di Ruiji shook his head: "I just want to treat your sorrow as the wine for my food, and be happy."
