My Weird Life

   Chapter 425 Playing Cards (12)

   The brilliant light that filled Ping Lingzi's vision faded away.

  The surrounding environment became dark.

   The stove that was originally placed by his side has disappeared without a trace.

   She looked condensed and looked at An Gang opposite.

  I saw a beautiful woman standing behind An Gang. The woman's chest was tightly pressed against An Gang's back. Her long hair fell down and covered An Gang's neck.

   A pair of deformed palms with long black and purple nails are holding a Prajna ghost face,

   Fix the ghost face on An Gang's face.

  ‘Rashomon’s beautiful woman! ’

   Seeing that beautiful woman, Ping Lingzi's pupils shrank slightly, and she instantly had a guess in her heart.

  She lived in Kyoto since childhood,

   Naturally, he is very clear about the various rumors about the shrewd "Rashomon" lingering in the Kyoto area.

   When she saw the 'beautiful woman' with the ghost face of Prajna, she instantly judged the approximate identity of this sly and strange person.

  Ping Lingzi didn't know what Su Wu did to him,

   has caused great changes in the environment in which he lives.

   She sat in the dark city gate, and saw that An Gang was obviously bewitched by the beautiful woman, and she lost a lot of consciousness.

   Then turn to look at Su Wu—

   Behind that despicable man, stood an illusory samurai.

   Blood was dripping from the blood hole in the samurai's chest,

   A tragic green ghost eye was born inside, and the ghost eye stared at the man, but when its eyes fell on the man, it was dispelled by invisible power, and it could not be affected by the man in any way.

   Behind that man and An Gang stood the sly and quirky Rashomon...

  Ping Lingzi pursed his lips and looked behind him.

   saw the woodcutter carrying a bundle of firewood,

   The woodcutter hid an exquisite dagger at his waist.

   At this time, the dagger kept dripping black blood, and the droplets of blood gathered into a pool of blood under its feet.

   The stench of blood gradually expanded,

   spread to the position where Reiko Hirai was sitting.

  Ping Lingzi hurriedly glanced at other areas,

   saw the towering city gate tower that was about to overturn.

   I saw a plaque with the words "Rashomon" hanging on the city gate tower.

   Downstairs of the city gate,

   Warriors, woodcutters, beautiful women, thieves, and walking monks gather here.

  Two city gate guards, surrounded by dark green ghosts and fires, guarded nearby, monitoring the card game between Ping Lingzi and the other three.

   She was cold all over,

   looked to the side of the man,

   Finally understood what the other party said about 'getting rid of Li Wei's control'.

  —It turned out that in the silence, he had already fallen into the sly manipulation!

  When the woodcutter behind him contains a pool of blood under his feet,

   He may also become like the opposite An Gang, it is difficult to keep his mind awake, and he completely slips into the abyss dug by Li Wei!

  Ping Reiko was convinced in her heart,

  The various pictures you see at the moment are the real world here.

   She can judge true and false herself, and does not need the hands of others.

   "What do you want me to do?

  —As long as we work together and can get out of the grip of the wicked, I am willing to cooperate with you. "Ping Lingzi spoke, she saw the blood pool under the woodcutter's feet, and the distance between her and herself was no more than three feet.

   Maybe some wrong behavior of oneself next,

   may cause the three-foot distance to be instantly flooded by a pool of blood.

   So at the moment, she must take every step carefully and make no mistakes.

   includes cooperation with the opposite man,

   must have the necessary value of cooperation.

   "It's not what I need you to do.

   But you have to cooperate with me. "Su Wu shook his head and said something as hard as iron.

  Ping Lingzi was silent.

   The white cheeks flushed with anger in his heart.

  Su Wu looked at her and continued: "Even if I am in Rashomon, I have the absolute ability to guarantee that I can forcibly break its laws and get rid of its manipulation, I am an absolutely free person.

   Does your Excellency have such ability? "

   As he spoke, he placed the 'Great Red Lotus Womb Store' and the Supreme Sword in front of him.

   The two great swords, the supreme and supreme, are in the body,

   is enough to show his confidence.

   What's more, his strength is not only above the two weapons.

  Ping Lingzi lowered his eyebrows and looked at the evil spirit beside him.

  The evil spirits were so frightened by the man that they covered their eyes and mouth, and now they even cover their ears...

   is really useless.

   However, the fact that even the Heavenly Evil Ghost was frightened into such a state already shows that the opponent's strength far exceeds his own.

   what he can do,

   You can't do it yourself.

   "I can't do it." Ping Lingzi responded indifferently.

  Although it is a shame to be weaker than the enemy, the greater shame is not being able to face up to your own weakness.

   "So, if you don't want to cooperate with me, I will solve the problem and at most add some trouble.

   But things will always work out,

The    process is a little more troublesome, but it’s actually harmless.

   In exchange for causing trouble for me, you will stay in Rashomon forever. "Su Wu saw that this woman was surprisingly good at communicating, and her tone was not so blunt, "If you are willing to cooperate with me, I promise you that I can take you out of the control of Li Wei."

   Although we each worked under Genji and Heiji,

   But after all, it is not the surname itself.

  Today's disputes can be revealed with one eye closed.

   In the future, you will go your way, and I will cross my bridge. "

  Su Wu guessed that the woman was 'the ghost warrior of the Ping family',

   But he could never imagine,

   The other party is not only a ghost samurai of the Hei clan, but even his original surname is 'Pei clan'!

   His remarks exposed some of his own misjudgments, but it didn't hurt.

  Ping Lingzi was silent for a while,

   There was a strange feeling in my heart.

   She looked at the man on the other side who seemed to be able to control everything, but she wanted to laugh a little inside.

   So even if you are as cunning as you are, you can't actually guess my true identity?

  Ping Lingzi felt a sense of comfort in reversing a game, she nodded with a sullen face, no change in expression on her face: "Yes. I hope you can keep your promise, and I will fully cooperate with you before that.

   So, what exactly do you want me to do? "

   "I only need you to do one thing - try to get the Li Wei behind you to play this game." Su Wu said.

  Ping Lingzi's expression changed greatly for the first time,

   She was surprised: "If I let Li Wei behind me play this game, doesn't it mean that I will be completely controlled by Li Wei? This kind of thinking of yours is completely evil!"

"exactly!"

  Su Wu nodded again and again: "You keep this idea, and like An Gang, you think that I am a sly accomplice.

   It won't be long before I can play cards with Li Ji behind you! "

  “…”

  Ping Lingzi was silent again.

   The pool of blood at the feet of the woodcutter standing behind her did not expand during this period.

   means that her cognition has not shifted in any way.

   After being silent for a while, she looked at Su Wu again and asked in a low voice, "What is your reason for letting me do that? Can you tell me?"

   "Rashomon's viciousness is different from ordinary viciousness.

   They retained some of the cognitions they had before they were alive, and also gathered the memories of many undead.

   So many memories come together,

   is enough for them to each form a whole new personality.

   There is both personality and cognition.

   They can distort the cognition of the living,

  I think it is also possible to try to distort their perception.

  —perhaps this is the best way to break Rashomon's 'rules'. "

  Su Wu said so.

  Ping Lingzi looked at Su Wu for a while and said, "Okay, this method is worth a try.

  I practice the kendo of 'Nan-nian Yu Dao Liu',

   You can make up ideas in your own mind and gradually make yourself believe them.

   It is not difficult for Li Wei to quickly control my cognition.

   But I need a 'key' to wake me up from my delusional cognition and get back to myself—"

  Su Wu originally wanted to use his own will to distort Ping Lingzi's cognition - but it would be more troublesome to correct his cognition afterwards.

   Now the other party has his own way, which sounds more secure and reliable,

   He didn't have to worry about it anymore, so he asked Ping Lingzi directly, "What is the key?"

The method used by   Ping Lingzi,

The principle of    is probably similar to 'hypnosis'.

   Looking at Su Wu's eyes, Ping Lingzi said slowly: "When everything is over, Your Excellency only needs to call me 'Ping's Ghost Warrior', and my original consciousness will be able to wake up from the confused cognition.

   This is the key. "

   "The Oni Samurai of the Heira...

   Is it that simple? I got it. "Su Wu didn't know what such a simple sentence had any special meaning to Ping Lingzi.

  Ping Lingzi pursed his lips and chuckled softly, "I'll leave everything to you."

  …

   The dark-green ghosts fluttered around the half-collapsed city gate tower,

   These ghastly green flames did not illuminate the dark building at all, but added endless evil to it.

  Under the dark city gate,

  The city gate guards surrounded by ghosts surrounded the three 'people' who were playing cards.

   An oil lamp crouched among the three.

   With the faint light of the oil lamp, the three of them were extremely engaged in playing the card game, ignoring the current sinister environment.

   "It's me! It's me!"

  'An Gang' stared at his blood-red eyes and looked at his hand.

   Samurai, Geisha, Craftsman, Thief... Seven types of cards, he has already collected six types, and only one 'passer-by' is needed, he can collect all the flower cards and win the game.

   'Winning this game' is the only solid and unaltered thought in An Gang's cognition that has undergone a huge shift.

   The beautiful woman behind her had beautiful long black hair wrapped around An Gang's entire face.

   made the prajna ghost face that was not firmly worn on his face completely fixed,

  The ghost face seems to have many sharp teeth, constantly biting at the skin of his face,

   The slight tingling made An Gang's inner mania gather more and more, and he was about to reach a critical point.

   He stretched out his hand and drew cards from the 'Su Wu' hand in front of him.

   The current 'Su Wu' was enveloped by the illusory figure of a samurai.

   can only see the dark outline of his body wrapped in the shadow of the samurai.

   He wiped his hand,

   There is just the 'passer-by' card that 'An Gang' needs.

   And,

  'An Gang' happened to hold the 'Passerby' card in his palm.

currently,

The 'Su Wu' wrapped in the phantom figure of the samurai, the palms holding the cards suddenly overflowed with drops of viscous black liquid, the viscous black liquid turned into a small snake, and swept over the one held by 'An Gang'. passerby',

  The quirky rhythm drifted from the viscous black liquid,

   The 'passer-by' card silently changed into a 'samurai card'.
