Infinite Sims

Chapter 216 Ghost Vine
"I'm not dead?"

Under the faint moonlight, Wan Jinghao, who had just crawled out of the ground, looked down at his pale skin, and fell into a moment of confusion.

He vaguely remembered the last part of his memory.

Amidst a burst of grinning laughter, his body became empty.

"I remember I should have died."

"But if I die, where is this place?"

Wan Jinghao looked away from the broken bones and black ashes on the ground, looked at the charred building wreckage ahead, and murmured, "Is this hell?"

"This is not hell."

Suddenly, a voice that was so cold and without any emotion came from behind.

Wan Jinghao turned around subconsciously and saw a charred black skeleton standing a few steps away from him. Out of fear of the unknown, he took two steps back in a panic.

But because his foot tripped over a protruding broken bone, his body suddenly lost his balance and sat on the ground.

The scorched black skull didn't care about his reaction, opened his hands with only bones left, raised his head and said, "This is a world ten and a hundred times more terrifying than hell!"

"world?"

When Wan Jinghao heard this word, he immediately forgot why there was a skeleton that could move and talk, and said to himself excitedly: "So, I'm still alive..."

But soon, the scorched black skull interrupted him: "No, you are already dead."

Wan Jinghao was slightly taken aback: "Dead...I'm dead..."

"Don't you want revenge?"

The scorched black skull took two steps forward and came to him: "As long as you can get revenge, why do you care about life and death?"

"Revenge... yes, I want revenge!"

Wan Jinghao's calm expression changed instantly, revealing a cold killing intent faintly.

The two black pupils the size of ordinary people also turned into black awns the size of pinpoints at this moment, showing a difference from the living.

Father, mother, brother, sister-in-law...

One after another, images of the tragic death of family members flashed through his mind, as clear as if it happened just a moment ago.

It took a while for Wan Jinghao to regain his composure.

After knowing that he was a dead person, he was no longer afraid, looked up at the scorched black skeleton in front of him, and asked, "Are you and Grandpa Immortal..."

The scorched black skull said: "The old man has already left this world. After waking up your body, he asked me to assist you in completing your revenge."

Fairy Grandpa...

Wan Jinghao was suddenly moved. He never thought that he would be able to survive, and it seemed that he could take revenge himself.

Closing his eyes and opening them again, he asked: "This immortal, I wonder if I am lucky enough to know your honorable name?"

"If you are a fairy or not, don't say any more."

The exposed gums of the scorched black skeleton bumped up and down, making a stiff voice: "I'm just an insignificant boy of his old man, you can call me...Jiang Ren!"

"Brother Jiang."

Wan Jinghao cupped his hands.

Jiang Ren nodded slightly, looked up at the moon in the sky, and said, "There are many things that you may not be able to accept for a while. I will give you half a quarter of an hour to think about it and tell me what the first step should be."

"Thank you Brother Jiang."

Wan Jinghao turned around, looked at the wreckage of the surrounding buildings, and his thoughts quickly fell into memories.

But Jiang Ren, who was a skeleton, raised his hands at this time, trying to make a fist with the bone claws, and made a slight creaking sound during the process.

"I didn't expect that I would become like this."

Jiang Ren recalled the vision he experienced after being thrown into the corpse pit together with Wan Jinghao.

Blood watering!
Soul compost!

Forging the body with flames!

Demonic thoughts added to the body!

Except for the first ten days, his sanity was on the verge of collapse countless times afterwards.

If it weren't for the original power that came to this world with his soul, his last trace of sanity would have been torn to pieces long ago. It's really hard to say what will happen now.

But to be expected.

If you lose all your sanity, the follow-up will either change your personality completely, or say goodbye to this world. More precisely, never see you again.

Difficulties are difficult, but the harvest is also very gratifying.

The demon seed that had troubled him for ten years finally broke its shell and became a vine plant with many daughters invisible to the naked eye, which would be greatly suppressed during the day. He gave himself a suitable name.

——Ghost vine!
Invisible and invisible, out of the day.

The ghost vine itself does not have any offensive power, but it is especially suitable for the battlefield because it has the ability to control the dead.

"I am quite satisfied with the ability, but..."

Jiang Ren looked at his hands that looked like chicken feet, and then at Wan Jinghao who was sitting on the ground at some point in front of him.

In the process of changing, being in the mouth of Wan Jinghao also brought him a lot of benefits, turning him into a special creature between life and death, and he was deeply bound to it.

In other words, it has become one.

When Wan Jinghao was born, he lived, and when Wan Jinghao died, he also died.

As for the current skeleton, it is actually controlled by a vine branched from the main body, and the real self is still in Wan Jinghao's body.

"Strength, speed, flexibility...everything is weaker than ordinary people."

"Even though this skeleton is stronger than a normal person, its ability has been reduced a lot because it has been dead for a long time."

"However, it is still the body."

Jiang Ren opened the portable mall, and was about to take out some clothes from the items he had drawn, when he saw the exaggerated essence balance in the upper right corner.

[Essence: 630 seven]

"So many essences, my eyes are dazzled?"

Jiang Ren quickly rejected this idea, thinking back to his half-comatose and half-awake state: "Before the destruction of Yecheng, the total population was about 21 people, and if it was reduced by ten times, it seems to be related to this essence. The balances are pretty close.”

"Does ten people equal one essence?"

After a moment of silence, he decided to find a chance to try later.

Opened the warehouse where the drawing rewards were stored, and picked two night clothes and two mysterious person two-piece suits from the items.

[Item: Night Clothes]

[Introduction: It is not easy to be found when operating at night]

[Remarks: Whether you want to be a thief or a big thief, this is your first choice]

[Item: Mysterious Man Two-Piece Set]

【Introduction: Cover your face and body shape】

[Remarks: Its masking effect is very good, but there is one thing to pay attention to, it will make you the most eye-catching existence in the crowd]

Jiang Ren muttered in his heart, and the two sets of clothes appeared on his hands instantly.

"It's quite considerate to be able to automatically modify the size of the wearer according to the wearer in my mind."

He put the clothes on the ground, and then put on the larger night suit.

Bandanas, face scarves, clothes, pants, shoes, even gloves.

Because there are only bones in the whole body, it looks a little funny after wearing it.

But at least when people see it, at most they think it is a thin person like a bamboo pole, instead of thinking that there is a skeleton frame inside.

Most importantly, with this cover, he can control this body even during the day.

The two-piece suit of the mysterious man is divided into black robe and bamboo hat.

The black robe is relatively loose, and there is a layer of black gauze on the brim of the hat.

"Looks good."

Jiang Ren put on a black robe for himself.

Although the robe is large, it is not much heavier than paper with the same area, and it also has good light-shielding properties.

It is equivalent to adding another layer of insurance to his daytime activities.

"In the end, the most important thing is this."

Jiang Ren picked up the bamboo hat, put it on his head and adjusted his position.

This world does not have glasses to cover the eyes, and under the cover of this layer of black veil, it can be regarded as covering up the last inhuman feature.

"Brother Jiang, I've made up my mind."

Wan Jinghao stood up and turned around, seeing Jiang Ren who had changed from just now, he couldn't help being stunned.

Jiang Ren threw the other set of clothes over: "We'll talk about it after we wear it."

I'm pretty good, showing a lot, but there's nothing to see about the bones.

But Wan Jinghao was still the same as he was before he was alive, except that his complexion was a little pale, and he had the same things that he should have, and he was too magnanimous.

Looking at it always feels a little... spicy.

"."

It was only then that Wan Jinghao realized that he was naked. Thinking of the gentleman's etiquette he had learned from the academy and his master, he immediately reached out to pick up his clothes in embarrassment.

Quickly put on one after another, and finally put on the bamboo hat again.

Seeing this, Jiang Ren said, "Have you figured out what to do?"

Wan Jinghao nodded seriously, and said in a deep voice: "This city has become a dead city. Even if there are still survivors, I am afraid it will be difficult to find them, so I am going to go to the hinterland of Dazhao first, and kill the barbarians when I meet them. When you meet someone from Dazhao, ask for information."

"Then do it like this." Jiang Ren had no objection.

Not to mention that he and Wan Jinghao are now in a wonderful symbiotic relationship, but to say that human life is likely to be related to the essence, so it is worth his shot.

"It's not too late, we'll go now."

Seeing Jiang Ren's cooperation, Wan Jinghao heaved a sigh of relief, turned around and wanted to leave.

Everything in front of him has undergone earth-shaking changes from the Yecheng in his memory, but the general outline is still there, and it is not difficult to identify the direction.

Jiang Ren said, "No hurry."

Hearing this, Wan Jinghao looked at him suspiciously.

Jiang Ren didn't explain. He stood still and calmed down, and began to manipulate the power of the vines.

Countless vines poured into the ground and quickly spread around, ten steps, one hundred steps, one thousand steps.
"found it!"

Jiang Ren turned his head to look at the side road, and could faintly hear the sound of horseshoes approaching.

"Gee yo!"

Two tall horses with only bones left appeared from around the corner and galloped towards Jiang Ren's position.

As they approached, they lowered their heads and arched his hands affectionately.

Just like the vines that control Jiang Ren's current skeleton, he can also separate many vines from his body to control the dead within his ability.

Be it human or animal dead.

The two horses were found not far away, and their bones were still intact, which would not affect their movements, so they were barely usable.

Seeing this, Wan Jinghao was slightly surprised.

Although he had been cleansed by the immortal grandpa, and he was able to move after death, as well as a skeleton that could move and talk, the scene in front of him still refreshed his cognition.

"Since it's a journey, it's natural to bring a horse."

Jiang Ren said to Wan Jinghao, and patted one of the horses on the head.

"Hey!"

The horse galloped immediately and came to Wan Jinghao's side.

Jiang Ren sat down on the horse, and said to him who hadn't reacted yet: "The conditions are simple, and I don't know where there is a saddle. Sitting may hurt a bit."

"I don't feel any pain right now."

Wan Jinghao shook his head with a smile, and got on his horse.

"That's true."

Jiang Ren steered the horse forward.

With Wan Jinghao's current physical condition, the overall statistics are similar to those before his death, but he no longer has the weaknesses of ordinary people.

There will be no pain and no death.

In a sense, he is almost equivalent to those zombies who jumped out of the three realms and are not in the six realms in myths and legends.

"Gee yo!"

The two bone horses were driving side by side, their front hooves were raised high, and the moment they fell, they ran forward at high speed.

Because of the long death, the speed of the bone horse is much slower than that of ordinary horses, but no matter how slow it is, it is faster than the two legs.

All you can see are ruins.

There are also corpse pits at intervals, but now there are no corpses in it, only the black ash and broken bones created by incineration.

"You're still young after all."

On the galloping horse, Jiang Ren noticed that Wan Jinghao was feeling a little lost.

In fact, compared to the immediate result, the process of causing this result makes people feel more angry and desperate.

I just don't know if Wan Jinghao can remain calm when seeing those pictures.

"this is for you."

Seeing that the atmosphere was dull, Jiang Ren took out a knife and threw it over.

Wan Jinghao hurriedly took it and observed the knife in the black scabbard.

It is similar to common waist knives, but the blade is shorter and curved than ordinary waist knives.

When he pulled it out, a cold light flashed.

Under the moonlight, the strange pattern on the knife can be faintly seen.

"Good knife!"

Wan Jinghao put away the scabbard and asked, "Brother Jiang, does this knife have a name?"

Jiang Ren said lightly: "Xiu Chun Knife."

Although there are ten Xiuchun knives at a time, the material and forging process are all high-quality products, plus the fine-tuning of the portable mall according to the user, it is far beyond the comparison of ordinary swords.

Wan Jinghao nodded in praise: "The embroidered clothes are in the spring, and the colorful clothes are getting closer to the courtyard. What a good name."

Zheng!
Jiang Ren also took out an Xiuchun knife for himself, and played a few tricks with the knife.

I haven't done it for a long time, and my body is a skeleton. I only use my hands from memory. Now my knife skills are not as good as before. I have to find more people to practice.

Putting the knife back into its sheath, Jiang Ren looked at Wan Jinghao and said, "Do you want to know the story behind the Xiuchun knife?"

"Appreciate further details."

Wan Jinghao's eyes brightened slightly.

"It is said that in a certain dynasty, there was an organization called Jinyiwei, who directly controlled the guards, patrolled and arrested..."

Jiang Ren talked for a while, then looked towards the city gate that had just appeared in sight, and said slowly: "And the weapon they use is the Xiuchun knife."

Wan Jinghao held the scabbard tightly with his left hand, and murmured: "Beheading corrupt officials at the top, beheading the enemy bandits at the bottom, and using it to kill barbarians is not an insult to his reputation."

Passed through two city gates.

The two left Yecheng and gradually accelerated their speed.

Wan Jinghao looked back at Yecheng, as if he wanted to engrave it in his mind.

After a few breaths, he patted the bone horse to speed up, and entered the dark official road together with Jiang Ren.
