Scarlet Falls

"The Book of Origins..."

Although there are indeed many things that make Wei Wei excited at the Devil's Trading Ground, as well as the boss.

But he was still thinking about his mission, so he could only bear the pain and look for a store related to the Demon of Life to buy the Book of Origin. This was probably the only store that could buy it. He walked slowly, but quickly, and found a shop selling life injections. It occupied a small facade in an abandoned town. It looked like it had some traces of time. There were several light blue injections in front.

Wei Wei approached, picked up one, looked at it, and then put it back to make sure that the injection was genuine.

It's just a particularly inferior Life Demon Injection.

The blood of the Life Demon can be purified and processed to produce a Life Injection, which can provide a large amount of life energy to oneself in a short period of time. It has miraculous effects on people who are dying or who often take risks, so it is extremely popular in the wilderness.

Even inside the spiritual barrier, there are a large number of consortium members who purchase similar injections at high prices for a long time.

It has formed what is recognized as the largest gray industry.

Of course, using this kind of injection is not really foolproof.

Except for those who are extraordinary beings of the Life Demon System, others who use the Life Demon Injection will have certain risks and side effects. No matter how powerful the purification and processing is, there is a high probability that they will hear the whispers of the Life Demon when using it.

The more you use it, the easier it is to hear, and the easier it is to lose control and degrade.

Therefore, some people rely on life injections to save their lives, but it is impossible to rely on them to live forever.

Many old men from the consortium who tried to use life injections to extend their lives again and again ended up turning themselves into old monsters.

It is said that the foundation’s most powerful Xingtian Team has such a responsibility:

Specifically to eliminate those old guys in the consortium who have lost control because they are too greedy for life.

They particularly enjoy doing this work. According to the words of an instructor who once joined Xingtian's team, "This work is great!"

"Swagger into the homes of these consortiums and kill their elders."

"He still has to pay us a commission and say thank you..."

"..."

Of course, those financial groups are not willing to accept such a result.

Many laboratories supported by them have been taking eliminating the side effects of life injections as their main research topic.

They all dream about eternal life where people can have no worries.

…

…

Even the high-end injections used by the consortium have unavoidable side effects. The ones sold in the devil's trading market are naturally not good things. The original solution of life injection has been diluted no less than ten times, and a lot more have been added. A mess.

There are even some who don't even have the ability to make life liquid.

They directly extracted the life demon's blood and poured it into glucose.

People who use this kind of injection have to make a gamble between using it to save their lives or using it to commit suicide.

However, since the life injection is real, it means that this place should be somewhat reliable.

So Wei Wei stood in front of the stall for a while, and then he heard a person in the dark shadow inside the shop suddenly say:

"what do you want?"

"..."

Wei Wei glanced at the people in the black shadow and smiled: "Do you have the Book of Origins?"

"The Book of Origins, hey, who has that thing?"

Surprisingly, the other party refused immediately, but suddenly said: "I only have a copy of the Book of Origins, do you want it?"

"..."

Wei Wei glanced at the store with a strange look: He thought he was humorous?

Each system has its own "Bible", not only the content recorded in it, but even the book itself is a sacred object with mysterious power for this system. When talking about books of origins and the like, we usually refer to them, Refers to the body of this book.

However, I have already come to this devil’s trading place, and I still think that I can buy the real Book of Origin from this shabby place?

Too lazy to say more, Wei Wei breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Yes."

"How much?"

"..."

The other party said: "The few books we have collected here are not like other people's broken chapters and pages, and the prices are very reasonable."

"How many?"

"Five thousand copies."

"..."

Wei Wei was startled for a moment and said: "Twenty."

Both sides felt awkward for a while, and no one answered for a long time.

Wei Wei narrowed his eyes: "Sell it or not?"

"Sell."

The other party suddenly spoke and handed over a printed book of origins.

"?"

Wei Wei suddenly felt that he had lost.

Considering the importance of the task, he accepted it angrily, took out two ten-yuan notes and handed them over.

It's so expensive. It's only twenty if you buy some information and have a meal from Uncle Yuan.

Although I was somewhat dissatisfied, I didn't leave immediately. I glanced around the small shop.

However, my attention was quickly attracted by the small glass bottles hanging in a row at the door of the store.

These small glasses are only as long as a thumb, and the mouth of the bottle is tied with a hemp rope.

In each small bottle, there is a group of vague black air, which keeps moving around and sometimes sticks to the wall of the bottle.

Wei Wei's heart moved slightly: "What is this?"

"ghost."

The voice in the shop lowered his voice and said: "The variant of the spiritual body after death is also the treasure of my store."

"If you want to buy one, it costs ten thousand yuan."

"And whether it dissipates or has backlash afterwards, our store will not be responsible..."

"..."

After a person dies, he will dissipate, leaving no consciousness or traces, only a corpse waiting to rot.

If it burns, there will be only ashes.

But under certain circumstances, some people can continue to exist as ghosts for a period of time after death.

As far as Wei Wei knows, there are several abnormalities: either in a country where demonic power is strong, after a person dies, the soul will belong to the demon, somewhere between existence and disappearance; or it may be caused by some special power. Protection does not disappear after death.

Another kind is the product of the infected person who has been infected by the knowledge demon, and whose spiritual power has been specially strengthened.

After death, these infected people will turn into ghosts and wander in the sea of ​​knowledge.

And this special product that was produced after the mysterious big explosion is also very popular among the circles of devil believers.

Many mysterious rituals or the creation of special weapons will use this special resource.

Because of this, this kind of thing has become a trading commodity to a certain extent.

Wei Wei is also very excited now.

His scarlet power was promoted, and he gained the ability to "touch the soul".

And now I need some suitable experimental products to study and develop this ability.

These bottled ghosts are just the thing.

Wei Wei watched carefully and felt a little moved. He raised his head and looked into the store: "Ten yuan?"

The voices in the store were silent for a moment, and then there was the sound of bullets being loaded, saying: "Are you looking for trouble?"

"..."

We had obviously had a great time talking just now...

Wei Wei pondered for a moment and said, "How much can I sell?"

The other party seemed to sneer and said: "One is ten thousand yuan, and you have to pay more for special ones."

Wei Wei immediately frowned: "Why is it so expensive?"

"Haha, brother, artificial cultivation is very troublesome..."

The people inside sneered: "Do you think it's still like before, catching them everywhere and stuffing them into glass bottles?"

"The quality of what you catch depends entirely on God's will, and there is no guarantee."

"I select them here one by one while they are still alive, and then carefully screen them out. Each ghost has its own attributes, and in order to ensure that they have enough violence, do you know how many processes are required to torture and attack them? Killed?"

"You only charge ten thousand yuan for such a good thing. Isn't that too much for you?"

"..."

"Artificial care?"

Wei Wei narrowed his eyes.

In his memory, even for some systems that needed "ghosts" to improve themselves, the choice for ghosts was to try their luck in areas that were deeply polluted by demons, or directly contribute to the foundation through meritorious service and points. Exchange for inventory.

But I didn’t expect that being in a remote town like Scrap Iron City would be an eye-opener.

They have actually achieved mass production?

Sure enough, people are most wise when facing business activities...

A gentle smile appeared on his face: "So, are there any cleaner ones made with children?"

The person inside was silent for a moment, and said with a low smile: "Brothers know their stuff, this is the most valuable kind."

"But I agreed in advance that it needs to be customized, and the price is very expensive..."

"..."

"It doesn't matter."

Wei Wei smiled and walked straight into the store.

The dark figure in the shop seemed to glance at Wei Wei warily, but the smile on Wei Wei's face dispelled his worries.

So Wei Wei entered with a smile, and the darkness of the unlit shop engulfed him.

A half-shriek suddenly sounded in the darkness, but it immediately disappeared without a trace, and then there was the faint sound of someone struggling.

However, the movement only lasted for a few seconds and soon became quiet.

After a long time, a winding trail of blood slowly flowed out from the dark shadow of the shop.

Wei Wei took a towel, gently wiped the blood on his hands, and then threw the towel back into the store.

He took the other money from the other person's pocket, but threw the twenty dollars he should have paid on his body.

Slowly pick up the bunch of bottled ghosts hanging at the door and leave calmly.

I'm in a good mood. I bought the Book of Origins and gained something else.

…

…

There was no sound in the shop, and the busy streets on both sides were still selling various businesses, and no one noticed the changes here.

The years are still quiet.
