Chapter 205
Chapter 205
The faceless man sat up.
Li Zhuiyuan noticed that he had changed a lot from his initial appearance.
The upper half of the face remained the same, but the lower half looked mottled and broken.
It seemed like the Spring Festival couplets pasted on the door two years ago had not been scraped clean.
Faceless Man: "You win."
Li Zhuiyuan: "What did I win?"
The faceless man pointed at the big clock and said, "Can't you see it?"
Of course Li Zhuiyuan could see that this bell was the offering that Yu Zangsheng and the other two had been dreaming of.
Every covered line on it contains extremely strong blessings.
It’s true. I’m not afraid of not having enough good fortune, I’m just afraid that your bowl is not big enough.
These accumulations are enough to bring several declining families and sects back to life; and can enable forces that are already in a strong period to reach a higher level.
It is no wonder that Yu Zangsheng and others are willing to sacrifice themselves to pursue this. From the perspective of family development, this is indeed worth a gamble.
The faceless man sighed: "Ah, don't you think it's ridiculous? They don't dare to dream of becoming immortals. All they care about are the offerings on the table."
Li Zhuiyuan: "There's nothing wrong with being more realistic."
Faceless Man: "If I cannot become an immortal, what good is there in keeping this mortal body and this worldly heritage?"
Li Zhuiyuan: "This is just your idea. Besides, this idea may not be correct."
Faceless Man: "Hehehe... After all, you are just an ant. You can only crawl on the ground and don't even dare to look up at the sky."
Li Zhuiyuan: "Isn't it even more ridiculous and absurd to think about flying into the sky without even figuring out what's going on on the ground?"
The faceless man said, "This is why I don't like you Liu family. The same is true for the Qin family. Even though you are a top Dragon King family with many Dragon Kings appearing, you just like to stare at this small piece of land on the river."
Li Zhuiyuan did not respond to this question, but reached out and grabbed the faceless man.
The young man's hand passed through the faceless man's body.
Faceless Man: "If my body is still there, if I can walk out of this tower and do it myself, those three won't be qualified to make any waves.
They were figures of an era, but their era was ultimately inferior to the one I experienced.
Your Liu family's ancestor once beat me into submission."
Each generation has its own world.
Yu Zangsheng highly respected Zhao Wuyang, while the faceless man highly respected his ancestor from the Liu family.
As we have all been losers in competition, we will naturally value the ultimate winner who defeated us more. This is also a kind of self-affirmation.
The top floor has a wide view.
This tower can have underground floors, but even if it is divided into negative one, negative two and negative three, after walking through the door, it is still the first floor.
Similarly, although the boy is now standing on the twelfth floor, the view is completely different from when he looked up from outside the tower.
Here, Li Zhuiyuan's gaze could pass over the white imperial road, through the white jade archway, and see the huge black water whirlpool.
As for the farther distance, the rock walls on all sides and above were all made of emerald green texture, with countless black shadows floating in them.
Faceless Man: "What are you waiting for?"
Li Zhuiyuan: "For some things, I have a general idea in my mind, but there are still some details that need to be verified and considered."
As the young man spoke, he walked to the window, deliberately not revealing his figure, and looked down in the slanting light.
At first glance, the people below seemed as small as ants, but after a closer look, the perspective seemed to be magnified, and one could clearly see Zhao Yi leading his team to stop Xu Zhenrong, and Zhen Shaoan and Yu Miaomiao were fighting.
The intensity of the battle on Xu Zhenrong's side was not high, and she was obviously a little worn out by it.
As for Zhen Shaoan, as Yu Miaomiao's sense of pleasure continued to fade, she began to intensify her attacks on her prey, and Zhen Shaoan was becoming more and more embarrassed.
Who would have thought that after the quarrel between the snipe and the clam, both sides were hurt, the ones who now hold the initiative in the situation are the three parties who came in with the invitations.
Faceless Man: "Are you enjoying the afterglow of being a winner?"
Li Zhuiyuan shook his head and asked, "Where's your face?"
The faceless man touched the lower half of his face and said:
“It was because I offered the lower half of my ancestor’s face that I was able to persuade the Taoist priest to leave the tower.
Unfortunately, I thought I had a sure win, but in the end, I could only get a "try my best" response. "
If it weren't for the tacit cooperation between Yu Zangsheng and the other two, and the exceptional factor of the woman in the black skirt, who was able to display the power of a sword at the critical moment under the deduction of Xu Zhenrong's puppetry, it would be hard to say who would win.
Li Zhuiyuan: "Where's the other half of the face?"
Faceless Man: "The other half of my ancestor's face is still under my skin, but I no longer have the strength to offer it up to invite others."
"Oh."
The boy nodded, but still stood there, not trying to scrape the "offering" off the bell.
At this time, although the top floor was still stable, when looking down, one could see that it was shaking violently.
When there is a gap in the rules and it is not repaired, the gap will only become bigger and bigger.
The boy looked into the distance again, and the emerald wall was like the "sky" here.
At this moment, all the dark shadows in the sky became active and began to gather in this direction like dark clouds, gradually obscuring the green light emitted by the emerald, as if there was a solar eclipse.
The scene was truly spectacular and shocking.
On the white royal road, the singers' voices were no longer melodious, but instead revealed bursts of mournful sorrow; the dancers' movements were no longer gentle, but became twisted and weird.
Even from the two huge kneeling pits under the tower, there began to be voices of prayer filled with resentment and suspicion.
Faintly, one could see that deep in the pit, some corpses had changed their kneeling positions, which had remained there for who knows how many years, and began to climb upwards.
As for the interior of this tower, the unrest will only become more intense.
Li Zhuiyuan suspected that if he went down now, he would probably face a group of Xuanmen dead who had already stood up and started walking.
Faceless Man: "Originally, I was able to calm them down, but now, I don't have the ability to do so. This place is spiraling out of control."
Li Zhuiyuan was silent.
The faceless man continued, "Since you don't believe in the long-cherished wish of becoming an immortal, then just do what you should do. If you're late, it will be too late."
Li Zhuiyuan looked at the faceless man with some confusion.
Faceless Man: "Why, do you feel strange? I have said that when I ascend to heaven, I will kill you, using your eyes as a witness, your blood as a mark, and your life as a monument.
But now, hasn’t the ascension failed?
Rather than letting an outsider take away the opportunity here, I’d rather give it to you.
Ha ha,
His descendants,
In the end, I will be needed to lend a hand.”
The faceless man spread out his palms, and there was a faint light and fire flowing in his palms. This was a performance of a small magic.
With this technique, the traces on the clock can be removed more conveniently and quickly.
Even without his demonstration, Li Zhuiyuan would have had a way to peel it off, but since he showed it, he saved himself the time of deducing it.
It can be said that Li Zhuiyuan is now sitting in front of a table full of delicious food, and the people around him are handing him a pair of chopsticks.
But Li Zhuiyuan still did not move.
After the faceless man finished his performance, he closed his palm.
His figure thus became fainter, almost translucent.
"Why, you don't believe in ascension, and you don't want the offerings?"
Li Zhuiyuan stared at the faceless man carefully, as if he wanted to catch the other's eyes on his eyeless face.
The faceless man, whose face was gradually fading, seemed to be staring at the young man.
Li Zhuiyuan confirmed one thing and was about to speak when the faceless man raised his hand as if he had predicted what the boy was going to say.
"Wait a moment, wait until I turn my back before you say that."
The faceless man turned around, raised his hand and waved, indicating that he was ready.
Li Zhuiyuan: "You are so pitiful."
The faceless man's transparent body began to tremble. If he had a face, his face would have an expression of both enjoyment and nostalgia.
Li Zhuiyuan knew that the other party regarded him as the Dragon King of the Liu family in history.
This guy, no matter success or failure, can really get that strange pleasure from brushing himself.
The faceless man did not turn his body back, but quietly enjoyed his body, which became increasingly faint.
The boy's voice sounded again, asking the same question as before: "Where is your face?"
Faceless Man: "I have already answered this question."
Li Zhuiyuan: "You misunderstood my question and answered it in a way that was not asked."
The faceless man turned around and faced the boy: "So what do you really want to ask?"
Li Zhuiyuan: "I'm not asking about the remnants of your ancestor's skin on the lower half of your face. What I'm asking is, where did the face that originally belonged to you go?"
The faceless man said as a matter of course: "What do you think? I tore off my original face and replaced it with the face of my ancestor, but because of the restrictions of this place, I have to show myself in a faceless form."
"Where was the piece of your own face that you tore off placed?"
"Of course I..."
The Faceless Man was stunned because he couldn't remember.
Over the years, he has become accustomed to his "expressionless face".
Anyway, he can't leave this tower, and there are only dead people in the tower. He doesn't need to communicate, doesn't need to make expressions, and he is not fragile enough to talk to himself in front of the mirror to relieve his loneliness, so it doesn't make any difference whether he has a face or not.
However, even if it is useless, where on earth did I put my face?
The faceless man covered his head.
The boy's pointed question seemed to have shattered a flaw in his consciousness, which made him feel anxious and uneasy, because under normal circumstances, this should not be possible.
He is dead.
He continues to exist with the help of the special characteristics of the secret realm, and he does not have a physical body yet, so the soul is his biggest carrier now, and the most important component of the soul is memory.
In other words, it is impossible for him to forget things.
In real life, when a ghost loses his memory, it usually means only one thing...the soul is damaged.
This situation is not uncommon among wandering ghosts in real life. After all, it is their first time as a ghost and they have no experience.
But when it comes to the faceless man, something seems wrong.
He was well prepared to enter here, and he stripped away his own soul.
There was no way he would make such a stupid mistake.
The most important thing is that the only missing memory is where his face was placed, and everything else is normal.
"Why is this happening...why is this happening..."
The faceless man began to mutter to himself.
His transparent body began to be stirred up like waves on a lake because of such complex and intense emotions.
The faceless man asked Li Zhuiyuan for help: "Tell me why this happened. You know why, right?"
Li Zhuiyuan: "We met in a dream."
The faceless man said: "Yes, I was the one who went to find you. I asked you to represent the Liu family and witness the ascension of our clan."
Li Zhuiyuan: “In that dream, I couldn’t see your face. I originally thought it was because you didn’t have a face, but then I began to suspect that I was wrong.
What if, the you in the dream actually has a face but is just hiding it?"
Faceless Man: "How is this possible? I was the one who went into your dream and invited you here!"
Li Zhuiyuan: "Well, I didn't say it wasn't you."
Faceless Man: "Then you..."
The Faceless Man stopped talking, as if he finally realized something. He stopped all movements and froze.
Li Zhuiyuan continued, "When I came up here, I had doubts about whether your true identity was that ancestor of yours. For example, after you entered the ancestral tomb, your ancestor took over your body.
But after getting in touch with you and communicating with you, I found that it was not the case. You are still you, but not completely you. "
The boy said as he pinched his face:
"Even if the ancestor's face needs to be covered, why does he have to become faceless? Can't he just tear off his original face and stick it on again?"
Faceless Man: "Then who am I..."
Li Zhuiyuan: "I said, you are still you."
Faceless Man: "What about the other me? Where is the me that still has my face?"
Li Zhuiyuan: "It should be here too."
Faceless Man: "Then what is the purpose of doing this? Why should I separate myself?"
Li Zhuiyuan: "The purpose of separation is to maintain relative independence and avoid interference. Since you are sure that you can ascend to become an immortal, then the other you should not believe in such a thing."
"Hahahahaha!"
The faceless man laughed, and his laugh was a little sad.
He had already accepted the fact that he had failed to ascend, but he had not expected that an even greater blow was waiting for him.
He is not even his complete self.
No, he cannot even be called "himself". There is no such thing as separation or not. His existence is more like a memory, a clone, a puppet, an obsession that is deliberately imprisoned here.
He is a part that has been stripped away from the original body and discarded.
"I don't even know what I am, but I'm still dreaming of ascending to heaven, hahaha."
Li Zhuiyuan allowed the faceless man to continue venting his emotions, while he continued to look down from above, overlooking the situation below.
He met the Faceless Man in close quarters three times in total.
Once in Ari’s dream, once on the underground third floor through the cracked tower door, and once now.
When they met for the second time, Li Zhuiyuan was just suspicious.
When we met for the third time, when I went up to the top floor and saw him lying there, this doubt turned into a kind of certainty.
When you don’t have enough specific clues, you need to switch to different perspectives if you want to see the truth behind the fog in front of you.
One important reason is that the black-robed man in A'li's dream had a corpse-like aura and ten very long nails that were both black and sharp.
That momentum and style are unquestionable.
The faceless man in this tower has a similar feeling, but it is not strong enough.
He was mad when we met at the bottom of the tower, and he was calm in the face of failure when we met again at the top of the tower.
This kind of madness and calmness is understandable, but it lacks a certain thickness and layering. It is as thin as a paper man, with only a single color painted on both sides of the paper.
The one in Ari's dream gave her more pressure, had richer layers, and was more like a living being under a special adjective.
Here is another perspective.
From the perspective of the questioner, he had been in the lead since the battle for the broken jade, although he had killed Xu Yijin and repelled Yu Miaomiao and the group of people who surrounded him in the end. Including after entering this secret realm, although he encountered several changes, he still came here relatively smoothly.
As a result, I was assigned to the third floor below ground, where I watched the fighting going on upstairs, and then I naturally got the biggest advantage.
He had been at the top of the tower for such a long time, but had not done any serious work at all. It was a pure waste of time. However, Xu Zhenrong and Zhen Shaoan were still firmly blocked outside the tower gate.
Indeed, all success is based on one's own extraordinary abilities and is the result of one's own deduction and judgment, and is by no means a pie in the sky.
But the problem is that the person who sets the test knows your abilities and your past test scores.
He took the test paper that belonged to someone else and gave it to himself to do. His purpose must have been to embarrass himself, not to allow himself to successfully exploit a loophole and gain an advantage.
Therefore, from the perspective of difficulty, it is obviously abnormal that I became the final winner.
Especially when he just came up, the faceless man said to him: "You win."
Li Zhuiyuan's heart was filled with alarm bells at that moment, because usually one would only hear such words when one was about to lose.
The faceless man walked to Li Zhuiyuan's side and stopped.
He was more transparent than before, and felt very light, as if he would float away with just a little wind.
"You're right, I am indeed pathetic, a...pathetic joke."
Li Zhuiyuan: "If you continue to dwell on this, it will be more than just ridiculous."
Faceless Man: "I understand what you mean. You just looked at me with doubtful eyes. Are you trying to figure out whether a fake person like me has my own independence?"
Li Zhuiyuan: “Yes.”
The faceless man said that he entered his dream and said the same words to him.
There are two possibilities. One is that he and the "man with a face" are essentially the same person, and the two of them are in a two-in-one state. Following the cause and effect of the past, they entered Ari's dream and found themselves.
But the faceless man didn't realize that he was actually more than just him at that time.
Another possibility is that the "man with a face" entered Ari's dream and then re-injected the relevant memories into the faceless man's soul, making him believe that he was really involved in this incident.
The latter possibility is very low, because the Faceless Man is trapped in this tower. If the Faced Man can enter and exit the tower at will and make various changes and manipulations to the Faceless Man, then he would have become the "sky" here, and there would be no need for such a layout.
The former means that the two are essentially one, except that one occupies the larger part and the other the smaller part.
This is also the reason why Li Zhuiyuan always insists on saying "You are you but not completely you". This is not a consolation, but a condition that is beneficial to himself.
Puppets and minions can be easily controlled by the main body, but if they are an independent part, they can be won over and cooperated with, becoming a kind of assistance.
Faceless Man: "You want me to help you?"
Li Zhuiyuan: “Yes.”
Faceless Man: "But, I am about to disappear."
Li Zhuiyuan: "You disappeared because you were severely injured after the old Taoist priest was eliminated and lost the ability to continue to intervene in the situation. So you became discouraged and too lazy to continue to exist."
The faceless man did not deny it, but his figure, which had been fading, stopped changing.
"But why do you think that I would help you? Even if I am not completely myself, there is really no need for me to destroy the plans of another me for the sake of an outsider like you, my enemy and descendant.
Although I don't know what his plan is, his success is equivalent to my success, isn't it? "
Li Zhuiyuan: "You will choose to help me."
Faceless Man: "So confident?"
Li Zhuiyuan: "Because I want to help you complete your ascension."
The young man didn't believe in becoming an immortal, but he was just helping the faceless man complete the ascension ceremony, and he couldn't guarantee success.
At least now, the dangers of not holding this ceremony have begun to emerge.
With so many dead Xuanmen people in the tower, they are gradually getting out of control. The growth of resentment is making them get closer and closer to becoming zombies.
Once these many dark shadows in the jade get completely out of control, they will evolve into a large number of evil spirits filled with resentment.
What kind of terrible natural disaster will be caused by such a large group of guys who have completely lost the constraints of rules and gained freedom and rushed out from the depths of Yulong Snow Mountain?
The faceless man said: "Okay, I can help you. I want to prove to my other self that it was not him who abandoned me, but I was the one who tore him off."
Li Zhuiyuan nodded. He was not surprised by this result.
The Faceless Man is just a piece of paper. Obsession is the foundation of his existence. He can be easily persuaded as long as this obsession is aroused.
In other words, Zhao Yi was still busy giving orders at the foot of the tower and was unable to catch up and see this scene. If he had seen it, he would probably have to reiterate what he had just said: When it comes to playing tricks, Zhao Yi is no worse than anyone else, except that guy named Li.
Faceless Man: "Now, tell me, what do you want me to do?"
Li Zhuiyuan: "No hurry, the situation below is deadlocked, I just need to stay here, if I don't take the next step, he will be the one who is anxious."
The real opponent of this wave is still hiding behind the scenes, but fortunately his motives can be captured.
Li Zhuiyuan turned around and looked at the big bell behind him.
The other party seemed to want someone to take away the offerings on the table, as if this would trigger some condition.
The faceless man pointed at the big clock and asked, "How did you resist this temptation? Given the current situation of the Qin and Liu families, they really need the watering of this clock to complete their revival."
Li Zhuiyuan: "Because I know that the hope for the revival of the Qin and Liu families rests on my shoulders."
Faceless Man: "I now truly believe that you don't want to become an immortal."
Li Zhuiyuan: "If the purpose of this tower is not to ascend to heaven but to grow up to be a 'human', I might really be tempted."
The dark shadows within the emerald wall in the sky became more and more frantic and began to scratch the barrier collectively.
The white imperial road that originally led to the Heavenly Palace was now filled with a gloomy atmosphere, and the ones singing and dancing were no longer fairies, but ghostly shadows.
Li Zhuiyuan hid himself again and looked down, saying, "If nothing unexpected happened, it would happen now."
After I kept wasting time on the top of the tower without taking any action, an accident finally happened.
The emerald wall above the tower seemed unable to withstand the impact of so many black shadows and began to deform.
This scene also made Xu Zhenrong, Zhen Shaoan, Zhao Yi and others who were still fighting below stop what they were doing and raise their heads.
Including Yu Miaomiao, who licked the back of her hand while blinking her round eyes and looking up curiously.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The wall above my head seemed to be melting, and pools of water kept falling down.
The liquid jade that fell to the ground formed pillars of varying thicknesses and sizes.
When he saw them, Zhen Shaoan's face first showed shock, and then ecstasy.
These pillars are the layout of his classroom. They have solid form and can be switched at any time to serve as the center of the formation. At the same time, they can be controlled and transformed.
For a formation master who is familiar with this environment, the formation layout can be done extremely quickly and at will.
There were also a large number of jadeites that condensed but did not eventually drip down. Instead, they formed long inverted cones above.
One after another, dark shadows were sucked into the inverted cone, as if by accident, they had made some kind of advance preparation.
And this is exactly the layout of Xu Zhenrong’s classroom.
With them, Xu Zhenrong can easily create high-quality masked men without having to worry about raw materials.
Only teachers who return to their own classrooms can display their true... no, their strength magnified many times.
Zhen Shaoan: "Raise the wind and gather the formation to collect, trap, lock and suppress!"
The size of the stone pillars kept changing, reflecting a special luster, and a formation based on real structures quickly took shape.
Under tremendous pressure, Yu Miaomiao let out a cat's meow and immediately tried to break free.
She succeeded, relying on her terrifying speed and amazing reaction to jump out of the first formation.
But Zhen Shaoan just opened his palm and followed the second, third, and fourth...
With layer upon layer of formations imposed, even if Yu Miaomiao could jump over them one after another, it would become increasingly difficult. Moreover, the formations that she had already jumped over could actually resonate with the newly arranged formations.
Finally, only a shrill cat cry was heard, and Yu Miaomiao fell to the ground with all her limbs. Although she tried her best to resist, her limbs were gradually bending, and her chest was getting closer and closer to the ground.
She didn't understand why the prey that she had originally teased for fun suddenly became so fierce and powerful and actually suppressed her.
"Meow meow meow!"
While she didn't understand, she refused to give in. Her animal nature had already overwhelmed her human nature.
On the other side, Xu Zhenrong crossed his fingers and arched them upwards.
"Pop!" "Pap!" "Pap!"
Three white cocoons fell, formed by ten, thirty, and sixty black shadows respectively.
Xu Zhenrong clapped his hands three times in succession.
The white cocoon stood up and broke open in one go.
Three puppets appeared inside, with masks on their faces. They were Tan Wenbin, Lin Shuyou and Runsheng.
Zhao Yi shouted angrily: "You look down on me, don't you? Why didn't you squeeze me out?"
Lin Shuyou: "Hey, she pinched me again."
Zhao Yi: "Is it because your control over high-quality and high-strength puppets also has its limits?"
Lin Shuyou: Oops, it’s too early to show off.
It is easy to understand why she didn't pinch Yin Meng. She couldn't deduce Yin Meng's poison, so it was better not to pinch her.
But Zhao Yi felt that it was not narcissism, but there was a need for him to be molded.
When the gate of life and death was closed, he was also very good at fighting. And unlike the Li guys who only killed Xu Yijin, there were many people who died directly or indirectly at his hands during the escape with the broken jade, enough to be recorded in full and detail.
She didn't use herself, which could only be due to certain factors. It was likely that the mass of a round of one hundred black shadows was already the limit of her operational deduction.
Even so, the scale and strength of this puppet are already astonishing.
Taking Lin Shuyou who had taken the exam as an example, the fake Lin Shuyou created by the thirty black shadows had better physical fitness than the real Lin Shuyou, and could activate the effect of the evil-breaking talisman needle for a long time.
The ten black shadows that created Tan Wenbin were already very respectful. After all, although Tan Wenbin also practiced martial arts, he was not a true entry-level martial artist. This puppet probably also knew how to control ghosts.
As for Runsheng created by the sixty black shadows... this puppet should be the most terrifying of the three puppets.
If he had the ability to keep the valves fully open, it would be amazing. If he had the ability to keep the valves fully open... then could everyone just wait to be crushed to death?
Zhen Shaoan and Xu Zhenrong looked at each other from a distance, and then looked towards the top of the tower together.
Li Zhuiyuan had already reached the top of the tower, but the young man had been careful not to reveal his figure, so the people below the tower did not know where he was now. Including now, Xu Zhenrong and Zhen Shaoan also did not see anyone on the top floor.
The two concluded that although the young man entered the tower early, he probably could not withstand the repulsive force inside the tower. He was either still climbing the stairs slowly and with difficulty, or he might have died in pain inside the tower.
It's not that they are too optimistic and naive, but from their perspective, there is only one possibility in this direction for speculation, because they cannot understand why Li Zhuiyuan would go up to the top floor and remain indifferent when facing the big clock.
Regarding this sudden change that was extremely favorable to them, the two could only believe that as the rules here were constantly weakened, the environment that had always been maintained by the rules also changed. Another factor... maybe it was the blessing of their ancestors, who gave them a push in this critical period of trying to gain opportunities and fortune for the family.
Their stance and perspective are stuck here. They have been lurking for so many years and have encountered great obstacles before. They have already gambled everything and can only think of all the changes in a positive direction. They really don't have the energy and it is impossible for them to suspect anything else. Even if they know it is a trap, they have to pretend not to know and jump in with their eyes closed.
The gap between Zhao Yi's eyebrows was moving rapidly: there must be something wrong when things are abnormal. These two people are definitely not lucky and favored. I'm afraid they have become a knife in someone's hand.
And there's the guy named Li. He could even pry the books from the hands of the readers on the eleventh floor. Zhao Yi would never believe that he was still struggling to climb the stairs.
Mr. Li, you should have noticed something a long time ago, so you were deliberately waiting for the other party to make the first move so that you can counter it, right?
Well, that must be the case.
Zhao Yi was trying hard to cheer himself up. In essence, he was the same as the two men opposite him. At this moment, he could only think positively.
Zhao Yi took a deep breath, then slowly exhaled, and said in a deep voice:
"Get ready, it's going to be a tough fight."
……
Top floor.
Faceless Man: "No wonder the three of them were able to hide here and set up a teaching place here. It turns out that there has always been a mastermind behind this.
I am only responsible for the normal operation and maintenance of the tower, while the other me should be planning for a long time."
Li Zhuiyuan: "There can't be an absolutely precise and flawless plan in this world. Look, didn't Yu Zangsheng die?"
Now it seems that Yu Miaomiao's act of killing Yu Zangsheng was probably unexpected even by the person behind the scenes.
Sure enough, the wise man's thousands of strategies are not as good as the fool's sudden inspiration.
Faceless Man: "What is his purpose in doing this? I mean, using this roundabout method of borrowing a knife."
Li Zhuiyuan: "Because he wants to gain benefits but doesn't want to bear the consequences, such as the natural disasters that may be caused by it."
The faceless man: "Your people and that cat demon can't stop the two of them now. Don't you plan to do something?"
Li Zhuiyuan turned around and walked down the stairs. The eleventh floor was still shaking violently. All the furniture, walls and floors inside were covered with cracks.
The young man staggered to the couch with great difficulty, and the faceless man followed him over.
The scholar still remained lying on his side, with nothing in his hands, but the resentment and anger on his face seemed to have formed a palm-sized dark cloud above his head.
Li Zhuiyuan did not come here to apologize or say nice things.
At this point, apologizing and kowtowing are no longer meaningful.
The boy took out the wordless book again and flipped the pages, making a rustling sound.
Stimulated by this, the dark clouds hanging over the scholars' heads are gradually turning darker.
Li Zhuiyuan said, "Do me a small favor, and I will explain this book that you cannot understand to you."
In fact, Li Zhuiyuan had only glanced through this book when he was bored on the underground third floor, and he did not have time to understand it.
But the boy was confident that he would be able to understand this book after he had enough free time after leaving here.
He would also keep his promise and explain the mysteries of the book to the scholar. However, he would not explain it right away. Later, when he understood it, he could write the annotations on a piece of paper and mix it with paper money to burn for him. It would be the same thing.
The dark clouds above the scholar's head did not dissipate, but they stopped getting darker.
Li Zhuiyuan stuffed the wordless book into the hands of the reader and said calmly:
"Forget it if it doesn't work. You studied hard in life and researched hard after death, but you still didn't figure out anything. The worst that can happen is that you can continue to work on it slowly in heaven after you ascend to become an immortal."
After Li Zhuiyuan finished speaking, he turned around and prepared to leave.
"Clap!"
Behind me, there was the sound of a book falling to the ground.
The entire eleventh floor stopped shaking.
Li Zhuiyuan turned his head and saw that the dark clouds on the scholar's forehead had dissipated, and the rain had stopped.
The faceless man suddenly felt that this scene seemed familiar, as if it had just happened on the rooftop.
At this moment, he saw the boy's hand suddenly stretched out in front of him.
The faceless man asked in confusion: "What does this mean?"
Li Zhuiyuan replied:
