My construction materials are weird

#92 - People's hearts are strange

Xuan Huang observed everything in secret.

Dong Xingbao and Sun Xuelian were silent and flustered, Wu Deyi and Wu Deli were full of confidence, and Wu Deren was gloomy and changing.

He always felt that something unexpected would happen.

Xuan Huang would not underestimate his perception. This was the integration of his essence, energy, spirit, and will, making his body and mind as agile as creation itself.

Therefore, if the agility of creation-like perception fluctuated, there would definitely be changes and accidents.

Unknown accidents are the cause or source of high-dimensional energy, and also a kind of changing energy. Since it exists, there will be traces, and since there are traces, it can be perceived.

"So, Wu Deren has a secret?" Xuan Huang thought.

After careful investigation, Xuan Huang seemed to understand something.

The next morning, Xu Ruyi came to visit.

"It's been a long time since I've seen Master Xuan, your demeanor is still the same. The changes in Qingyun Mountain are really great. Every time I come, I have new discoveries, full of vigor… I'm envious, and I'm thinking about whether to move our Demon Suppression Department here too…"

Xu Ruyi had been in a very good mood recently.

He didn't get any assistance when he went to ask for help, but Xuan Huang's performance after returning to Nanshi changed his worried face.

As a matter of routine, he brought three spirit masters with him, who needed to relieve the erosion of their souls.

Xuan Huang had a slight impression of one of them. He hadn't met him before, but he felt inexplicably familiar, as if they had communicated before.

"Master Xuan, this is One-Eyed Chen Chao. There was a misunderstanding before. He was muddle-headed and mixed with Wei Zixuan and others, but now he has turned over a new leaf and is starting anew. Minister Gao and I see that there is still room for him to be saved… He's not too bad of a person, but he's careless and easily acts impulsively. Once someone flatters him, he forgets who he is…"

"Junior has met Master Xuan, please forgive me… I used to think Wei Zixuan was loyal, but after being fooled by his words, I was furious and did wrong things without distinguishing right from wrong…"

Chen Chao had obviously organized his words, but his nervousness and fear betrayed him.

"Yes, familiar, but it seems I haven't met him before?" Xuan Huang said.

"Junior was fortunate enough to see Master Xuan subdue the strange corpse tree…" Chen Chao said, blushing.

It was that time he wanted to investigate, but was accidentally injured by Xuan Huang who activated his domain.

After that, he didn't get any compensation from Wei Zixuan and Jia Zhengyi, and immediately felt that Wei Zixuan, who was very righteous and loyal, was not good, with one set of words and another set of actions.

Chen Chao is a typical careless person, who becomes a loyal brother once someone says something nice and flatters him.

In fact, he doesn't even know when he's been sold.

"It's good to know your mistakes and correct them."

Xuan Huang was a 'truly' generous person, definitely not the petty and shameless villain that Wei Zixuan and others slandered him as.

If there were no major mistakes and he could be redeemed, Xuan Huang would not care, such as this One-Eyed Chen Chao.

The three spirit masters were taken aside to relieve their souls, leaving only Xu Ruyi and Xuan Huang.

After the two sat down, Xu Ruyi said, "I'm here this time because I have something to trouble Master Xuan with again."

"Please speak freely."

"It's the Strange Blood Mark incident that I mentioned before, a second-order strange creature. It has appeared. This is the information we have compiled. Master Xuan, please take a look, but don't believe it all, just use it as a reference."

Xu Ruyi gave the information to Xuan Huang, and reminded him in passing.

Having experienced the previous incorrect information about the Strange Alley, Xu Ruyi understood that the spirit masters' records could not be fully believed, and that sometimes the use of euphemisms could lead to incorrect judgments.

Xuan Huang opened the information.

The Strange Blood Mark first appeared in the Xiangxi area, according to unverifiable news, it was triggered by white witchcraft corpse driving.

At that time, the resurgence of the strange was just beginning, there were many demons and monsters, and the hearts of the people had not yet been tortured by the strange, and there were still some wannabe internet celebrities who wanted to become famous through this.

There were two such internet celebrities, who pretended to be Taoists and spent money to find three people who were not taboo to pretend to be dead corpses.

One of the scavengers was particularly professional, saying that he was actually dead, and was one of the three types of corpses that should not be driven: those who drowned, hanged themselves, or were incomplete.

Among the three types that should not be driven are those who died of illness, whose souls have been taken away by the King of Hell, and magic cannot summon their souls back from the Gate of Ghosts;

While the souls of those who drowned or hanged themselves are 'replaced' and entangled, and they may be in the process of handing over, if the new soul is summoned, wouldn't the old soul have no replacement, affecting the old soul's reincarnation;

As for those who died by lightning strikes, they are all people with deep sins, and those who died in a fire often have incomplete flesh, these two types of corpses also cannot be driven.

What bad intentions could internet celebrities have? They just wanted to earn money from their fans.

After learning about the three types that should not be driven, it just so happened that three passers-by became three types that should not exist.

According to the old man's instructions, they just broadcast it live.

As you can imagine…

The old man may have really died, or he may have already been a strange creature, in short, it backfired.

The entire team, including the photographer, all backfired, leaving the final scene on the internet, all turning into blood, and the blood forming the word 'death'.

This video quickly spread, and the 'death' word formed by the death of the seven people at the end also spread.

As a result, the situation was not good. Anyone who saw the blood-red 'death' word, whether they saw it through the internet or not, would be found, and then turned into a blood-marked death word.

Fortunately, the official, which still had prestige and power at the time, seriously investigated and dealt with it, almost cutting off the circulation of the picture.

But there are always people who save the remnants, and there are always people who are cynical, unable to live, so they all go to die, and release the picture before or when they are about to die.

Leading to the Strange Blood Mark being difficult to eradicate.

According to the information, three people in Nanshi have already been killed, and seven others have seen the picture. Inevitably, the Strange Blood Mark will come to their door in the next day or two.

As for whether there are any other disseminations or being used by people with ulterior motives, it is unknown.

"It seems that dealing with the Strange Blood Mark is actually dealing with people's hearts."

Xuan Huang said after reading the information.

"That's right, the first time you see this Strange Blood Mark, a blood mark will appear on your neck, but as long as you spread it out, the blood mark will temporarily slow down its expansion. The wider the spread, the slower the blood mark on the neck expands. It's difficult for online reviewers to send it out, but it can be seen in reality. What we are dealing with is the strange, but also people's hearts."

Xu Ruyi deeply agreed.

As long as the first person who sees the Strange Blood Mark reports to the Demon Suppression Department as soon as possible, and does not spread it to others, it can actually be stopped quickly.

But people's hearts are unpredictable.

"To be honest, Master Xuan, there are actually many strange creatures that use people's hearts, relying on humans to kill each other to spread."

After saying that, Xu Ruyi sighed faintly, "This is also the reason why many spirit masters are dissatisfied. Why were so many people in the Nanshi Demon Suppression Department tempted by Jia Zhengyi? It's because many people are dissatisfied with ordinary people. Spirit masters risk their lives to eliminate the strange, but an ordinary person can cause a new disaster just to vent;

I know that people's hearts are unpredictable, there are good and bad, but one bad person can cause a huge disaster, while good people work hard all their lives and rarely get rewarded. Being pushed to the point of desperation, 'After I die, who cares if the flood sweeps the heavens,' may be the idea of most people."

"It is impossible for people's hearts to be completely uniform."

The conversation got a bit deep, but neither of them were the kind of people who would be easily swayed.

People have good and bad, don't worry about them, just take care of yourself, and stick to your own principles and bottom line.

The reason why morality and so on exist is to lock people's hearts.

If people's hearts were all kind and righteous, there would be no such thing as morality.

"What does Minister Xu intend to do?"

Xu Ruyi said: "I control the Strange Heart, so I am good at dealing with this kind of problem. Among the seven people we currently control in the Nanshi area, through my interrogation, they are the only seven people who have seen the Strange Blood Mark so far. You can rest assured about this. I acted quickly as soon as I noticed the abnormality, and it did not spread."

He further stated, "So, it's difficult but also simple. The simple solution is to abandon these seven people. Once they die, the Cursed Blood Mark will disappear from South City. The difficult part is how to save these seven? All seven are innocent victims. The person who intentionally spread it has been imprisoned deep underground by us, sealed away, and has already become a Blood Mark devoid of vitality."

Xu Ruyi continued, "I've come this time to ask if Master Xuan has a solution. After all, these are seven innocent people. For two of them, the Blood Mark will spread to their brain and heart tomorrow. I'm afraid they'll die in three days."

"Minister Xu, you're a Tier 2 Spiritualist. Can't even you resolve the strange Cursed Heart?"

Xu Ruyi sighed, "The Cursed Blood Mark is at least mid-Tier 2. I'm only early-Tier 2. Moreover, Spiritualists are naturally a level below the Cursed. I have no way to remove the Blood Mark from the victims."

Xuan Huang's mind raced.

"I'd like to give it a try."

After speaking, he continued to ask, "Minister Xu, can you confirm that it's a Blood Mark, … with blood as the primary component?"

"This?"

Hearing Xuan Huang's question, Xu Ruyi was a little confused by his meaning.

However, he said, "It is a Blood Mark, a kind of blood that can dissolve everything. After the victims die, their whole body turns into Cursed Blood, which disappears into thin air. It should become nourishment for the source of the Cursed Blood Mark, only leaving behind a mark like a medium, the character 'Death'."

"That's good. If it's blood, that's good. I can try."

This is a Tier 2 Blood Mark, and he doesn't even have to face the source of the Cursed Blood Mark. He just needs to find a way to resolve the Blood Mark on the seven people.

It seems he was truly granted luck by the Town Spirit Stele.

No mistake, one head, one shot, one inside, one face, one eye, one look!

Such a good opportunity has come.

Even a Tier 2 Spiritualist like Xuan Huang can't suppress it, a Tier 2 Cursed. He can only passively defend, looking for a chance to 'retreat'.

But a Tier 2 medium, Cursed Blood, is easy.

It seems even the twisted will of this world favors busy people. Or things.

"Really?"

"Of course. I'll go to the Town Evil Department to resolve it this afternoon," Xuan Huang gave a definite answer.

"That's good. We'll have to trouble Master Xuan again."

Seeing Xuan Huang's confident appearance, Xu Ruyi felt that a turning point had arrived.

As long as Xuan Huang showed some indication, it meant it was highly likely.

Although they hadn't interacted much, Xuan Huang could always do things almost perfectly.

Xu Ruyi could feel this.

"The second matter, may I ask Master Xuan, did Dong Xingbao and the others … …?"

After talking about the threat of the Cursed Blood Mark, Xu Ruyi asked about the second matter he came for.

"They were indeed killed by me. These people have already become demonized. They colluded with demon believers and the Cursed Rat Three Brothers … …"

Xuan Huang told Xu Ruyi everything he had seen and heard.

Xu Ruyi was greatly shocked, especially after hearing that the Cursed Rat Three Brothers were suppressed and exiled, and about the evil deeds of the Cursed Association.

"Regarding the Cursed Association, I also have news to tell Master Xuan."

"Please speak."

Xu Ruyi said, "It's like this. After Dong Xingbao disappeared, … … Master Xuan needs to be careful. The Cursed Association should be investigating. If they conclude that it was done by Master Xuan, according to their behavior, they will definitely issue a kill order against Master Xuan. The Cursed Association seems to be both righteous and evil, but they will not tolerate provocation. This is their rule, and it's also a manifestation of their ability to suppress the entire Spiritualist world."

Speaking of this, Xu Ruyi was a little tired, "To be honest, I already knew about the Cursed Association's behavior before, but I couldn't make a change. It's not something a small South City Minister like me can change. With the resurgence of the Cursed, people's hearts are easily changed. Chaotic times are heaven for the strong and hell for the weak. I can only prevent many things, I can only turn a blind eye."

It could be seen that Xu Ruyi's heart was impacted and he was very tormented.

On the one hand, he couldn't stand the Cursed Association and some organizations, but on the other hand, he didn't have the strength to solve them, leaving him in a dilemma.

"Since I've done it, I'm not afraid of the Cursed Association's revenge. Asking me to pretend I don't see it, I can't do it."

Xuan Huang was rarely so assertive.

He had always been gentle and amiable before.

"Master Xuan has a good heart, but you must be careful. The Cursed Association is the one that connects the entire assassin organization and the dark transactions. Almost all rogue Spiritualists are their customers. Even our Town Evil Department needs the Cursed Association."

The strongest aspect of the Cursed Association is its teleportation ability. The twelve affiliated buildings around the world can not only teleport back to the Cursed Association headquarters, but also connect and teleport to each other.

Although the teleportation method is expensive, all major forces dare not easily offend them.

In fact, Gu Jianren's substitute puppet can also travel through space, but it can only be used by himself, while the Cursed Association can teleport even ordinary people.

The key is the space where the main body is located.

Xuan Huang also had this plan, to develop the Reverse World and enter it with a medium.

However, he couldn't achieve the ability to teleport people. That is, people can enter with a medium, but after exiting, they can only return to the original place and can't use the Reverse World as a transit point to teleport to other places.

The Cursed Association can teleport because of that space + the Cursed Association's main building.

Xuan Huang's Cursed Clock Reverse World can only teleport himself, not others.

"I understand. Although I can't do anything about the Cursed Association for now, they are not a threat to me either, unless their President Qiao Liangyu personally intervenes."

Xuan Huang said with full confidence.

"Well, that shouldn't happen. Qiao Liangyu is very cautious. It's almost impossible for him to show up and kill someone. It's said that this person never leaves the Cursed Association."

"By the way … …" Xu Ruyi asked again, "Master Xuan said that the Cursed Rat Three Brothers were exiled and suppressed. Is there anything you need help with? … Keeping these three is a scourge, it's better to get rid of them as soon as possible. If Master Xuan has any difficulties, you can tell me, and we can join forces to suppress and kill the three of them."

"Thank you, Minister Xu. … It's not needed for now. The place where they are exiled is very hidden. The three of them can't escape, and besides, they won't live much longer."

"Okay?" Xu Ruyi didn't know how Xuan Huang did it, but this method was worth pondering. He himself found it difficult to deal with Wu Deren, the boss of the three brothers, let alone all three of them.

Xuan Huang had such confidence, wouldn't that mean that if he faced Xuan Huang, he would also be suppressed and exiled, or even erased?

Has he grown to this point?

Is he a cultivator?

Isn't it only by controlling the Cursed that one can improve rapidly?

I haven't heard of a cultivator being different every day and changing drastically every ten days?

Afterwards, the two agreed on a time, 2:00 PM in the afternoon, to go to the Town Evil Department to resolve the Cursed Blood Mark.

After that, Xu Ruyi praised Xuan Huang's dissemination of cultivation methods in the school.

He said that if there weren't enough resources, he could contact the Town Evil Department, and the resources that the Town Evil Department's Spiritualists didn't need would fully support the students in the school.

Xuan Huang didn't refuse either. The more resources the students get, the faster they grow.

Although the resources in Qingyun Mountain that are useful to ordinary people are already far more than enough.

After all, with the wasteland reclamation of the four families and the arrival of countless rogue cultivators, the merit points in the Merit Hall have been exchanged for trials, comprehension and visualization diagrams, etc., needed by cultivators.

And these points are exchanged for cultivators' elixirs, essence blood, special treasures, divine blood, Cursed, news, etc.

Therefore, Xuan Huang currently has many resources in Qingyun Mountain that he doesn't need.

Various spiritual pills and elixirs, various essence blood, etc.

His major treasures, such as the Great Millstone and Jianmu, have long passed the stage of needing energy, and what they need is true meaning.

The resources used by ordinary people are no longer valuable to Xuan Huang. After practicing the Four Extremes Twelve Heavenly Pillar Method, he no longer needs to take pills to refine essence blood. He can refine it from the world by opening and closing the Heavenly Gate.

The ordinary resources that he doesn't need are the source of Xuan Huang's confidence in popularizing the cultivation methods in the school.

It will even become more and more abundant. The four families and rogue cultivators are too capable of earning, they can't use it all, they simply can't use it all.

Except for treasures that have entered the rank and some Cursed, there are really too many others.

However, Xuan Huang still wants what Xu Ruyi gives, he wants it for the students and children, he doesn't mind having more.

When Xu Ruyi was about to leave, he also told Xuan Huang two pieces of news.

The first is that Han Wu, the Deputy Minister of the Xia Capital Headquarters, may come to visit.

The second is that people in the two small worlds know that Xuan Huang created the method and pioneered the way, so they also plan to come to seek the Dao and visit … …
