Chapter 420 Just Paying The Price Is Not Enough
"Ah?" Cheng Moxun listened in a daze, unable to turn his head for a moment.
"At that time, the ghost king was not allowed to disappear, so he was given a temporary suspension of spiritual power." Li Huajing patiently explained: "Now that he exists in Xu Ziyu's body, there is no need for him at all."
"But they..." Cheng Moxun pursed his lips.
The current state of Xu Ziyu and Ghost King showed no signs of improvement at all, let alone the two becoming one.
In this state, the Pear Blossom Essence can take back its spiritual power, is it all right?
"They have conflicts, and I don't know when it will last." Li Huajing shrugged her shoulders, as if she understood Cheng Moxun's doubts: "Withdrawing spiritual power hastily..."
Now the ghost king can still compete with Xu Ziyu, the main reason is because the spirit power is strong enough.
If the spiritual power is taken away, there is no doubt that Xu Ziyu won the dispute.
However, the ghost king's memory and Xu Ziyu's missing memory may disappear and can never be found again.
Such an ending is somewhat regrettable.
Neither Cheng Moxun, Ghost King, nor the original Xu Ziyu probably could accept such a result.
"There is another choice? Let Xu Ziyu use your spiritual power?" Cheng Moxun pursed his lips: "How do I do this?"
Pear Blossom Jing twitched her lips: "This... I can only guide part of it, and it depends on him."
"But, what can you do if you use your spiritual power?" Cheng Moxun suddenly said in frustration.
She looked down at the remaining water in the glass, under the dim night, there was a faint silver radiance: "So many messy things, is it possible that they will accompany us for a lifetime?"
"No." Li Huajing replied very quickly, with a light tone as if answering a very natural thing.
Cheng Moxun looked at her in surprise.
The goblin's translucent body looks very strange at night... If it is not that the appearance is not scary, it is really no different from the ghost in the movie.
"Some things have deviated from its pre-developed track." Li Huajing suddenly lowered her voice: "It is destined to not accept these changes so easily."
"So?" Cheng Moxun nodded half understanding.
Waking up from sleep in the middle of the night is not a good thing, and being surrounded by these complicated logics at this moment is really a headache.
"It's not enough to just pay the price, you have to do something to make up for it." There was a strange light in Li Huajing's eyes: "For example, your current experiences."
"Is experience enough?" Cheng Moxun asked in surprise, "Isn't this the price?"
"It depends on how you deal with it." Pear Blossom Essence stepped to the other end of the sofa: "If the result of the treatment is good, it will benefit myself by the way."
"You mean..." The water in the glass swayed slightly, Cheng Moxun opened and closed his mouth a few times, and then continued: "Is it possible for everything you encounter now to determine the future?"
"This range is a bit large." Li Huajing shook her head: "Not everything, just a part of it. But...you can't be sure which one it is."
"What if it's not handled well?" Cheng Moxun raised his head, and at the same time, the cup in his hand was held even tighter.
"Hmm...the price will probably increase." Pear Blossom Essence smiled lightly: "This is like a bet. Whether you win or lose, you will double your chips."
"How can I win?" Cheng Moxun stared straight at her, with desire in his eyes: "I want the future not to be like the present."
"It's not something you can do by yourself." Li Huajing took a few steps back, then turned around and raised her hand, and opened a corner of the hanging curtain in the air.
The sky was covered with dark clouds, and raindrops were still falling on the glass without interruption.
Ewha Jing looked out of the window quietly, and remained silent for a long time before continuing: "There are so many people who want to win, but only a handful of people can really get what they want."
"Is there no hope?" Cheng Moxun felt a little cold in his body: "I will always be troubled by these supernatural events, and this will continue?"
"Always give it a try." Pear Blossom Jing said calmly: "Also, don't complain."
Cheng Moxun opened his mouth, and the words he wanted to say were abruptly swallowed back into his stomach.
Her gaze returned to the cup, and she couldn't help but smiled wryly: "That's right, I can reincarnate and meet Tang Qin again, and I can come back from the dead..."
Got too much already.
White and blue-purple lightning strikes down in the sky.
Then came bursts of thunder.
Uneasy premonitions began to surge in my heart.
Pear Blossom Jing couldn't help being stunned, it was her instinct.
Even if it is assimilated by the world, the ability to predict will fade.
But instincts are never extinguished.
So in just a split second, she sensed it.
In the future, a large group of darkness is gradually approaching.
"The spiritual power on Xu Ziyu's body should not be moved for the time being." Li Huajing looked at the growing rain outside the window, and couldn't help sighing again and again: "Leave a way out."
To stay behind.
At the same moment, Uncle Huaian, who was located in the VIP entertainment room of Startop Casino, said these words to a white-haired old man with a sad face.
The white-haired old man was dressed in ordinary clothes, and his movements were a little timid. He looked completely out of place with the exquisite VIP entertainment room everywhere.
"Just this one time... this one time is enough." The old man tremblingly clutched the cloth bag in his hand.
Inside the cloth bag is a small handful of chips, the denomination is not large, but it is not a small amount to convert all of them into cash.
"What are you going to do?" Nao saw the old man's hesitation, and asked, "You...are not a regular visitor to the casino?"
"I, I'm just raising money for my son." The old man held the cloth bag tremblingly: "He lost the money, I, I win again, and I can redeem him."
Mo Yimo, who had been standing silently by the side, raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, and then looked towards Huai'an.
"Eldest young master, what do you want me to do?" Huai'an curled the corners of his mouth, his lazy expression restrained again, as if he was on call at any time.
"What do you think?" Mo Yimo responded lightly, but he just refused to reveal his plan himself.
"Come on, I know you can't open your mouth." Huai An stretched himself, and stood behind the old man: "Just go."
"But what if we lose?" The old man tore open the cloth bag, trying to take out a handful of chips: "I, I'd better keep some..."
Huai An looked at Mo Yimo, and found that the latter had an indifferent expression, so he could only resign himself to his fate and said, "Why do you make money in the casino?"
"It's required by the casino..." The old man replied while secretly looking around: "You can't leave until you win enough money."
"If you put all these in, is it enough to win again?" Nao stared at his cloth bag and asked.
The old man froze for a moment, then nodded silently: "Yes."
"Then please rest assured to bet on it." Nasu showed a friendly smile: "You will definitely win."
When she said that, many people around her cast mocking glances.
Some people in the crowd were talking in low voices.
"Who are you...?" The old man looked a little uneasy, and finally doubted the identity of the trio in front of him.
"In short, just trust us." Huai An seemed to have lost his patience. He stretched out his big hand and grabbed the cloth bag in the old man's hand.
Before the old man even had time to take out a chip coin from it, he saw that the cloth bag had been thrown onto the gaming table.
Huai'an threw it very casually, with his hands crossed over his chest, with a nonchalant expression on his face.
He didn't even look at which betting area he threw the bag into.
"What are you doing!" The old man seemed almost fainting: "No, no, you can't bet all!"
He yelled so loudly that he was about to rush forward and snatch the bag back.
But it was too late, the bet on the gambling table had already started.
At the same moment, all the onlookers who were waiting to see the old man cry showed shocked expressions.
Nao looked around, couldn't help but secretly covered her mouth and laughed.
"It's amazing!" The crowd who witnessed Huai'an's betting process suddenly burst into screams: "This is a five-fold game!"
The old man was still in place, unable to react to what happened.
Five times the chip, it was a bit difficult to put it in the cloth bag, but Huai An put it in abruptly, and then stuffed it into the old man's arms: "If the son is still such a prodigal, then leave him alone."
"Thank...thank you." The old man was pulled back from his thoughts by the sudden heavy weight in his arms.
Looking at the bulging cloth bag, tears filled his eyes unconsciously: "It's really... great."
Taking advantage of the old man's inattention, Nao gently tugged on Huai'an's sleeve: "Uncle Huai'an, the woman standing behind the old man just now was scared away by you."
"Really?" Huai An pouted, not paying much attention.
Suddenly, there was a commotion from the crowd not far away.
That's not the commotion that only happens when someone wins a lot of money or loses their fortune.
Mo Yimo's eyes changed slightly, he raised his chin, and turned his body to the source of the commotion.
The people around seemed to feel the different situation, and they all became quiet.
"It seems that the eldest lady is here." Huai An suddenly said in a low voice.
Hearing this, Nao seemed to have been greatly frightened, and hurriedly hid behind him.
"With Eldest Young Master here, she can't eat you." Huai An comforted him, while looking at Mo Yimo: "Eldest Young Master?"
"Take care of Naxu." A faint smile finally appeared on Mo Yimo's face.
This was the first time he showed a smile within an hour of entering the Star Top Casino.
"Understood." Seeing his abnormal appearance, Huai'an seemed to be relieved, then half-lidded his eyes, and turned into a drowsy appearance again.
At the same time, all entertainment programs seemed to be interrupted, and the crowd in the distance began to gradually and automatically separate to the two sides, making way for a path.
