Heavenly Dao Formula

Chapter 42: Prime culprit

   When Xia Fan returned to the wing, the old lady's words of gratitude were still echoing in her ears.

   "How about it, the first time it feels to help people get rid of the ills?" The fox demon looked at him with a smile, with a hint of joking in his tone, "Do you feel that you have become the savior and can control the fate of others in your hands?"

"To be honest, it's pretty good." Xia Fan automatically skipped the second half of her sentence, "I know why Master took this road-compared to entering the Privy Council, traveling around like this for It feels like a not bad choice for the people to eliminate harm."

   He realized now that even though his master had a lot of problems, he was also a monk who could draw breath into the body. The advantage of entrapment alone is enough to allow him to find a stable job in a big family or escort, and not spend most of his time like a homeless man.

   The reason why Master took the road may be because of these thanks.

   If it wasn't the only way to learn about the mysteries of the world by entering the Privy Council, he would have made the same choice as Master.

   After all, things like chivalry and justice are almost everyone's illusion.

   In addition, the old lady's complaint about the Privy Council also made Xia Fan quite concerned. When he wandered with his master, he had heard several instances of the Privy House alchemist cutting off evil and protecting the safety of one party. The government also promoted the Privy House as an institution to deal with all abnormal phenomena. This seemed to conflict with what Old Lady Tian said.

   It's just that he doesn't have any method of verifying it now. Master never mentions this aspect. When encountering an alchemist, he also avoids it. Probably only after he enters the Privy Council can he know whether there is any misunderstanding.

"By the way, I still don't understand." He brought the topic back to the spiritual knowledge that he was most interested in. "If a cat can become a sprite after death, wouldn't it be possible for other animals? What chickens, sheep, and cows? Ah... there should be sprites everywhere in the streets, but my actual feeling is not like that."

This is a conservative statement. Xia Fan looked down at his palm. If you count the microbes, bacteria die in his palm every second, and new bacteria will be born. If these creatures are all You need qi to be born, and you can become a sprite when you die, so the world is a bit too lively.

   And how do you perceive bacteria... Cats can still see a fuzzy shadow with window paper. Not to mention the microbes. The microscope magnification is not high enough for visual inspection. How can we remove it?

"There is no way to become a sprite for no reason, no matter what kind of evil it is, you need to rely on strong emotions to have a chance to transform." The fox demon shook his finger, walked to the coffee table and sat down, and poured himself and Xia Fan down. Cup of tea, "This emotion can be anger, pain, unwillingness, resentment, or ecstasy and bliss, or any other indescribable feeling."

   "Just as a large number of the dead can form the Great Desolate Night, although they die and their consciousness disappears, but the aura full of strong resentment will last for a long time until they cause a vision."

   She pushed the tea to Xia Fan, "Then you found the key to this?"

   Xia Fan immediately understood the meaning of her words, "The key is diversified emotions."

   Li nodded, "Your response is one of the few things to be praised."

   That's how it turns out...According to the fox demon, creatures with more diverse emotions are more likely to leave traces after death. This can also be understood as the stronger the consciousness, the easier it is to have an impact on the objective world. The microorganisms that were previously worried, because they don't have complex consciousness, will naturally not become evil.

  As far as the richness of emotion is concerned, man is definitely the first of all souls.

   Not right... Xia Fan glanced at Li, perhaps adding a demon.

   It's just that the number of monsters is much lower than that of humans, so it's not that obvious.

  From this, it can be concluded that the probability of human beings turning into arrogance is much higher than that of other species, and it is more harmful.

  Thinking about this, Xia Fan felt a heartfelt satisfaction, and the veil of the world seemed to fade to him again.

   It really was the right choice to turn the fox monster over.

   But another question came to his mind.

  ...What is the emotion that turns a cat into a sprite?

   Tian's wife seems to have said that Ahua died of illness, but animal deaths are a common occurrence. Even if livestock fell in pieces due to the plague, there was no major problem.

   Xia Fan's mind suddenly flashed.

   He looked at Li with a little surprise, "That cat...wasn't that sick and dying?"

The latter seemed to have expected that he would ask such a question, "Even if it is a human being, it is difficult for him to resist when he knows his time limit is approaching, let alone a cat? Want to impress him. , Ordinary encounters are no good."

   Then the answer is ready.

  Only pain can impress the souls in the shortest time.

   It was tortured to death.

   And the perpetrator did not aim to kill it, but to prolong the painful process as much as possible-if it was only to slaughter, it would not make the fox demon say "ordinary encounters are not acceptable".

   "It's not... Tian's wife made her own hand, right?" Xia Fan felt a little fluffy behind her back.

"It's not very likely," Li's answer made him a little relieved, "If the tabby cat died at the hands of the Tian family and it was too late to escape before his death, how could he wander around the house leisurely after his death. In addition... that The woman’s feelings for cats should come from the heart."

"That's fine." Xia Fan raised his head and drank a big sip of tea. As for who was responsible for A Hua, I am afraid that there is no way to verify it, and it is impossible for him to trace it to the end for a cat-after all, for people in this era, Cruelty to animals is nothing at all, not to mention legal punishment, and there will be no moral condemnation.

   But if you think about it, what if the real purpose of the abuser is not to torture the tabby cat, but to murder Tian's wife?

   This person knows that by inflicting enough pain, there is a chance that ordinary creatures will die but not disperse and become evil. Then only a little bit of attention is needed. The first scourge of evil must be the living person of the Tian family.

   No... These ideas are too conspiracy theories, so there shouldn't be such a coincidence. Xia Fan shook his head and put the distracting thoughts behind him. Since no perpetrator could be found, the above guesses would always be guesses and could not be confirmed.

   A sentence Li said before suddenly rang in his ear--

   "Spirit is the cause~www.ltnovel.com~ but not necessarily the culprit."

   Did she think of this at that time?

   If Ruqiu really died of physical weakness, whether it was intentional or unintentional, the person who tortured the cat would be considered a murderer.

   After solving this sudden "haunted" incident, it was almost midnight, and even Xia Fan felt a little tired. He yawned and motioned to the fox demon, "It's getting late, let's rest today."

   Li nodded, got up and walked towards the back room.

  As he approached the door, Xia Fan called her again, "Also, what happened today...I'm sorry."

   "Oh?" The fox demon glanced at him with interest. It turned out that the alchemist would also apologize to the demon. For some reason, her mood suddenly improved a lot. But this point cannot be easily revealed, otherwise the other party will think that he is too easy to compromise, and he has to be deeply aware of today's problems.

   "You didn't do anything wrong, why do you need to apologize. As you said, I helped you, not them. This is just repaying the previous life-saving grace--"

"I'm not talking about this." Xia Fan's answer surprised her, "It is clear that we helped the Tian family together, but in the end I was the only one who received their thanks. However, the real meritorious people can only succumb. Behind the scenes, in other words, I monopolize the gratitude you deserve."

   "What..." After a moment, Li looked away, "I don't care about human thanks."

"I care. One day, I hope people will know that the demon helped them; one day, you don't have to hide in the dark when you help others." Xia Fan looked into her eyes and said softly, " With this level of contact... humans will also take the initiative to help the demon."
