Chapter 347: A surprising reversal, who is the real ghost?
"Hundred...hundred times of time." Li Fu said breathlessly with sweat all over his forehead.
At this moment, even he felt a little numb and exhausted.
The sleeping evil spirit wakes up again.
Seeing this, Lin Chen threw out a large amount of spicy strips again.
All the evil spirits fell asleep again...
They couldn't control themselves. Unless Li Fu ordered them to stop, they would swallow the poison even if it was deadly.
Therefore, the courtyard is like a cycle, boring yet thrilling, and the repetitive things never stop.
This is a protracted battle, and it depends on who falls first.
Therefore, no one relaxed.
Li Fu was panting and completely exhausted at this time. His small river of time had already materialized behind him, but now it looked dim.
Obviously over-consumed.
Time is passing by little by little.
From nightfall to the early hours of the morning.
"Isn't midnight considered the tenth day? It seems that the limit of this instance is not calculated based on midnight."
Lin Chen muttered to himself, but didn't think much about it. After all, Li Fu's appearance started in the early morning.
Moreover, he still had a lot of stock in his hands. On the contrary, Li Fu looked like he was about to collapse.
Finally, with the alternative struggle between the two, the ninth day came to an end.
There is a bright light on the horizon, which seems to be a sign that the sun is about to rise.
"Hundred...hundred times the time."
Li Fu still did not give up. The rising sun gave him infinite fear. He spoke again, but this time, the time film covering the ghosts only lasted for ten minutes before it broke by itself, and the ghosts did not get up again.
He is exhausted!
The power of time is completely exhausted and needs to be replenished.
Upon seeing this, Li Fu was stunned for a moment, then he looked at Lin Chen with infinite hatred and squeezed out two words from between his teeth:
“Damn it!!”
He knew that he was almost finished.
This was also the first time that Li Fu took the initiative to speak after a day.
Lin Chen didn't care about Li Fu's attitude at all. His condition was much better than Li Fu's.
After all, what he consumed were external objects, and at this moment he just stood there calmly, as if nothing had happened.
Others were overjoyed.
"Win...win?"
Everyone looked at the bright light in the sky, which seemed to contain infinite hope.
This made Chen Yuan and Yu Die couldn't help but cheer.
Duan Jiebo patted Lin Chen's shoulder and laughed. Even Duan Qi, the Queen of the Dark Night, showed a happy smile on her face. When she looked at Lin Chen, her eyes were already shining.
At this moment, Lin Chen slowly closed his eyes. At this moment, not only had he won the victory, but his mental strength had also been almost refined.
He has reached the critical point of breaking through the Ghost King and becoming the Ghost Lord.
With just a large amount of ghost power, he could break free from the shackles and leap from 150,000 ghost power to a true giant with 500,000 ghost power.
Of course, this was unknown to everyone present.
Li Fu stared at the light in the sky, feeling extremely anxious. Finally, when the light became brighter, he could no longer hold back and spoke:
"Li Baotian is not a good man. Even if you wait until tomorrow, you will die in his hands. Your only way to survive is to become my accomplice!"
His voice was extremely urgent, and his face was filled with fear and an emotion that had never appeared before.
That's begging.
When these words were spoken, everyone was stunned.
Lin Chen also slowly opened his eyes, with a flash in his eyes, and asked: "What do you mean?"
"Everyone accepted Li Baotian's kindness when he distributed grain, but the real situation was not like this!"
Li Fu said anxiously.
This was the only method he could think of and the only thing he could do.
That is to convince Lin Chen within this final deadline. As long as Lin Chen is willing to stand with him and become his accomplice, he can continue to hide and does not have to face Li Baotian.
All of their faces were grim, and Li Fu's words made their hearts skip a beat.
Lin Chen smiled and said:
"Then tell me, what is the truth about the copy?"
"Li Baotian's distribution of grain did save everyone during the famine, but that was only at the beginning. Later, all the villagers left IOUs at his home, and the interest on those IOUs was unimaginably high. After a year of accruing the interest, even if one worked for a lifetime, they would not be able to repay it!"
"He is a very vicious person! He is using you now to let you delay me until the tenth day. Once he succeeds, none of you will be able to escape! You have to believe me, although becoming a ghost does not allow you to be free, you are still living a different kind of life!"
Li Fu's words rang in everyone's ears like thunder.
Everyone's face changed. Li Fu's words, whether true or false, still triggered many associations in them.
Their current goal is to delay Li Fu until the tenth day, so that everything will be on the right track as Li Baotian said, and the two ghosts will meet. After Li Baotian kills Li Fu, he will tell the truth and let everyone leave.
But the basis of this is that Li Baotian is a good ghost with a kind heart!
The reason why everyone accepts it from the bottom of their hearts is that all the clues prove that Li Baotian is a good ghost, or at least he is also a victim.
But the village chief said at this time that there was another hidden story.
This made them doubt whether they should believe Li Baotian.
"Is there such a thing?"
Even Lin Chen was stunned. He didn't expect things to take such a turn.
The truth, the truth.
Li Fu, Li Baotian.
Which one is true and which one is false?
Which of these two is the real ghost?
"Don't believe him! I won't hurt you!"
Just then, a voice was heard from a distance. Everyone was surprised and immediately looked in the direction of the voice.
I saw a figure with broken chains wrapped around his body standing in the air at the easternmost end.
His background is the rising sun, and the bright light behind him makes his front dark.
But everyone had sharp eyesight and they immediately noticed his scarlet eyes and half of his face covered with black scales.
When everyone saw this scene, their faces suddenly changed!
"Li...Li Baotian!"
The village chief's voice was filled with fear.
"Li Fu!"
Li Baotian roared angrily, and then shouted at Lin Chen:
"Baochen, don't believe him, he is lying to you, do you want to become a ghost?"
Lin Chen's expression did not change much, but he calmly asked Li Baotian: "Baotian, why did you become like this?"
"This is my ghost body. I am full of hatred for Li Fu, so I want to break free from the yard that binds me. I am entangled by the chains of rules, which caused me to become like this, but I am definitely not an evil ghost!" Li Baotian explained.
"You know, what you say in this state is not very credible." Lin Chen shook his head.
"Do you also judge people by their appearance? I don't want to become a ghost. I would rather everything return to peace. So please believe me, as long as Li Fu is not dead, this copy will continue endlessly. Too many people in your world have died. Don't you want to end it all?" Li Baotian was extremely anxious.
"You're talking nonsense. I turned them into ghosts. Otherwise, they would have died in your hands long ago. Why did they die when I was not there when some copies were opened? What did you do to them? Wasn't it on the tenth day that you endlessly devoured the flesh and blood of the villagers in your house, causing them to burst their intestines and die miserably?"
Li Fu seemed to have given up everything and no longer cared about his own emotions. In this life-and-death crisis, he seemed to want to tell the whole truth.
His words immediately made Duan Jiebo and Duan Qi's hearts beat wildly.
They had seen with their own eyes the bodies of the villagers sealed in the wine jars in Li Baotian's home.
It was indeed full of teeth marks, as if it had been bitten countless times!
Could it be that...
"That's the rule of the copy. If you want to blame someone, blame the will of the horror game. It was it that set all of this. I only talk about what happened in my life. You and I understand our grudges. Other people have nothing to do with me. Naturally, I won't do anything to kill anyone." Li Baotian did not deny it, but stated his reasons.
Next, the two ghosts started arguing in front of Lin Chen and others.
It all seems to make sense.
But everyone knows that there is only one truth, and this "truth" is not the truth of leaving the copy, but one of the two. They have to choose to believe one of them. Once they make the wrong choice, they will be doomed.
Therefore, everyone looked at this scene with serious expressions.
"It's a little hard for me to tell the difference. Interesting." Lin Chen smiled with interest.
His attitude made Li Baotian completely anxious. He saw two black shadows flash beside him, and two scarred black dogs actually appeared.
Li Baotian said: "These are the two black dogs I raised, but they died. Li Fu led people to break into the yard, forcibly abducted them, and cooked them to death. The famine was over at that time, and I didn't owe them anything. Their cruelty and shamelessness are unimaginable."
Everyone looked at it carefully, and then their scalps went tingling.
The two black dogs' bodies were covered with extremely clear teeth marks, and there was blood flowing from their flesh, making them look extremely miserable.
Lin Chen looked back at Li Fu and didn't say anything, but his attitude was very obvious.
But there seemed to be some indescribable meaning in the depths of his eyes.
Li Fu saw this and said angrily, "Li Baotian has two black dogs, but those two black dogs once killed Ma Baohai's only son. They are simply beasts. We went to Li Baotian's house, but he took out the IOU and told us that we owed him everything. In the end, he only paid for it with two bags of rice and flour, and he looked like he was giving alms."
"Is that the little devil?"
Lin Chen's eyes flashed, and he remembered that when he was catching the second type of native ghost, he did catch such a little ghost. However, at that time, the little ghost told Lin Chen that he fell to death while playing in the mountains, and was not bitten to death by a black dog.
However, Li Fu seemed to see what Lin Chen was thinking, so he said directly: "Li Baotian's real ability is to change the memory of the original ghosts in the copy!"
"I am the village chief, but I don't have any real power. The village was occupied by the big landlord Li Baotian, so after I died, I became the master of one of the copies, but I don't have any evil ghosts to drive, so what I have is the ability to recruit ghosts to make me the village chief again. This was my obsession."
"Li Baotian is two-faced. He has always wanted to control everyone, so he has the ability to be related to all villagers and can change the memories of all villagers. He can control those villagers at any time. On my side, I need the rules to show up before I can control them."
"In comparison, he looks more like a true king."
"So he changed the memories of all the villagers, making them follow the route he arranged and see the truth he wanted to show you step by step."
