Chapter 396 Different Red Beans
Chapter 396 Different Red Beans
After hearing what Hongdou said, Si He collected her thoughts and looked at her carefully again, wanting to see what the disadvantages of this possession were.
"Not finished yet?"
Hongdou's soul was sealed by Si He, like prey waiting to be slaughtered, and yet Si He couldn't finish it? Was it because it was a remnant soul that it was too weak?
It nodded, said nothing more, and just stared at her silently.
She then asked, "How much is left? What's the situation now?"
It seemed to think for a moment, then replied, "Three souls remaining."
Although it occupied Hongdou's body and its voice became Hongdou's, its tone of voice was still slow, low, and eerie.
However, this condition is much better than when he was a remnant soul before. He doesn't look so weak, and he has adapted quite well.
"Are you feeling uncomfortable? Can those three spirits suppress it?"
Si He stared at Hongdou's face. Although the talisman paper on her forehead blocked part of her face, her eyes were still partially exposed. She inexplicably felt like she was talking to a zombie.
It says: "Talisman paper is not comfortable to wear, and the three spirits cannot suppress it."
Hearing this, Si He narrowed her eyes and said, "I can take the talisman off for you, but if you have any intention of harming me, I will destroy your soul."
It whispered: "No, I dare not."
Si He then reached out and removed the talisman paper stuck on its forehead.
As the talisman paper fell off, a faint light suddenly flashed in Hongdou's eyes, and his eyes became more lively than before.
Si He remained calm and composed, and removed several silver needles from its body, allowing the body it occupied to regain its mobility.
The moment it was free, it began to move its body. Since it had just occupied the body for a short time, it still needed some time to adapt.
Si He put the silver needle on the table, but did not keep a distance from it. She still sat on the chair and looked at it calmly.
It twisted its neck, and then moved its hands and feet. It looked like a puppet, and its movements were a little slow.
After a while, when it got used to it, its movements gradually became more natural.
Then, it stood up, knelt on the ground, bowed to Si He, and said, "Thank you very much."
Si He raised her eyebrows slightly. This guy was quite sensible. "Get up, get used to this body, and try to act normally. Otherwise, people will notice and attract some wizard."
At first, it was relatively calm, but when it heard the word "mage", its face suddenly became somewhat ferocious, and its eyes were full of hatred, "Mage! Mage! Mage..."
It seemed to have fallen into a trance again, repeating the word "mage" angrily.
Seeing this, Si He could only soothe him, saying, "There are no mages here. Calm down. If you want revenge, you must strengthen yourself."
It looked at Si He with a ferocious expression, and after a while, it slowly calmed down, but its hands and body were still trembling slightly. It was obvious that it had been hurt too deeply. Even though it didn't remember it, it couldn't help but get angry when it heard certain words.
Si He waited quietly for her to calm down. After a long time, she finally calmed down completely, but her eyes were still cold.
"Hand out."
After hearing Si He's words, it seemed to hesitate for a while before slowly reaching out its hand.
When Si He touched Hongdou's hand, it was cold, not the temperature of a normal person, and the skin color was too pale, lacking a bit of blood color.
'Hongdou' was a little trembling with fear, inexplicably afraid of the seemingly innocent girl in front of him. Perhaps it was because he suffered a great loss when they first met, so he was left with fear.
It didn't dare to move, and obediently let her hold its wrist while she took its pulse and checked the condition of the body.
Si He frowned slightly when she checked Hongdou's pulse. After a while, she asked about its feelings.
After a long while, Si He withdrew her hand.
Looking at its current state, possessing another person's body might be an alternative way to achieve longevity, but the prerequisite is that it requires the assistance of others, and they must be completely trustworthy people, because this is equivalent to handing your life over to the other person. During the process of possessing another person's body, it is the weakest time and can almost be said to be at the mercy of others.
Moreover, the body you want to take over cannot be that of a dead person, and the soul in the body cannot be too strong. Strictly speaking, the conditions are still somewhat harsh.
Si He thought about it and let the remnant soul try to leave the body.
The moment it retreated, its body was once again controlled by Hongdou's broken soul. Hongdou instantly became crazy and mentally confused, "Ghost, there is a ghost... ghost..."
Si He immediately stabbed Hongdou with a needle, and she became unable to move. She could only keep mumbling nonsense, but she only repeated the word "ghost" and nothing else.
Si He tried to control her again, and was relieved when she saw that she only remembered the word "ghost" and nothing else.
After a long while, Si He allowed the remaining soul to enter Hongdou's body again and said, "Keep the remaining three souls. Don't move them. Also, stay outside and try to restrain yourself. Don't cause any trouble. From now on, you will be Hongdou. If you handle it well, you will have another chance to take revenge."
As Red Bean listened to her words, a faint light flashed in its eyes, and it said, "Yes."
After saying that, 'Hongdou' slowly stood up and left the room.
Si He then withdrew her gaze, walked to the washbasin in the side room, and washed her hands.
Now, Hongdou's problem has been solved, and the hidden danger of her identity has been eliminated. In fact, if she had been more obedient, she could have saved her life, but she chose to commit suicide.
After washing her hands, Si He took a piece of cloth and wiped her hands. After a while, she gently pushed open the window and saw "Hongdou" sitting in a corner of the yard with her eyes closed, motionless.
Seeing that it was well-behaved, Si He withdrew his gaze and went back to the house to rest.
The night passed peacefully, and the next day was a sunny day. It was early summer and it was already a bit hot.
In the morning, Bizhu brought some food and then left the yard and stood guard in the shade at the gate.
After the Guo family settled her here, they seemed to have forgotten about her, or perhaps they wanted to leave her alone for now.
Si He was enjoying her leisure time, so she stayed in the house, practicing martial arts or familiarizing herself with the locations of rivers on the map.
'Hongdou' also stayed in the shade, doing some odd jobs under Si He's instructions, such as washing clothes and cleaning.
After a night of adaptation, it now controls its body movements more skillfully, at least it looks much more natural than last night.
Because she was ignored, no one came here except the maid who delivered meals. This also gave Hongdou time to adapt and no one noticed that something was wrong with her.
However, this kind of life did not last long. The next day, Mrs. Guo sent someone to summon her to Fuhe Hall.
