Chapter 258: The Book of Life and Death
"You're causing trouble!" Cang Xiu slowly put down the teacup and looked at Li Si, as if he was looking at a dead person.
Then he said in a deep voice: "Tell me, how did you provoke him."
"He wants me to be the city god."
Li Si looked at Cang Xiu and said word by word.
As soon as he heard Li Si's words, Cang Xiu's expression changed, and he stood up and was about to turn around and leave.
Seeing this, Li Si immediately reached out and grabbed his clothes.
"Let go." Cang Xiu turned around and looked at Li Si and said coldly.
"Why are you leaving after listening to me?"
Li Si grabbed Cang Xiu's clothes and asked frowned.
"Aren't you going to be a city god?" Cang Xiu's expression was cold, and there was a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.
Hearing his words, Li Si let go of his hand and smiled, "What I just said was that he wanted me to be the City God, but I don't want to be the City God myself."
Upon hearing this, Cang Xiu showed a look of surprise on his face, and then sneered: "Become a ghost and god, you will become one of the rulers of this world. Will you refuse?"
"I refuse."
Li Si looked at Cang Xiu seriously and said word by word.
Seeing his serious expression, Cang Xiu's face showed a strange look, then sat down and said, "Tell me why you refused."
He stared at Li Si with his eyes curled up, as if Li Si said half a word he didn't want to hear, and he would get up and leave.
"Because I am a ghost and god, I am not the real me."
Li Si picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea, handed it to Cang Xiu, and said with a calm expression.
Hearing Li Si's words, Cang Xiu was stunned, then he showed a look of relief and relaxed all over.
"I used to be a very good friend with a pure character. However, after becoming a ghost after death, I still want to eat people. I don't want to lose myself like him." Li Si looked at Cang Xiu and continued.
"What about your friend?" Cang Xiu asked curiously.
"After becoming a ghost, I was broken." Li Si said in a plain tone, as if she was talking about an inconspicuous thing.
Hearing Li Si's words, Cang Xiu could have completely let go of his vigilance and shook his head and said, "There are not many people like you."
Then he hesitated slightly, looked at Li Si and asked, "Continue to tell me, how did you provoke the City God of Zetian Mansion?"
Li Si sighed: "It all starts with my parents. I started when I was five years old..."
Next, the two were sitting in the tea shop. Li Sishu said that Cang Xiu was listening, and people were coming and going nearby, but they didn't notice the two of them at all.
There were even a few old men in white clothes passing by here, but they didn't notice any abnormalities.
“…and then I took my friend out of the city.”
After Li Si finished speaking, he picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea. After drinking it, he felt dry mouth and tongue. He poured a few more cups of tea to relieve his thirst.
What he just told Cang Xiu that there were many changes in many places, and he did not tell Cang Xiu about some secret matters.
After all, Cang Xiu just met him just now, and he would not talk about these things to him.
The only one who can let him say it is the original owner.
After hearing what Li Si said, Cang Xiu fell into deep thought, then looked at Li Si, with pity in his eyes and said, "You are still alive now, it's really amazing."
Li Si was silent, but Cang Xiu was right. He also felt that he had lived to this day and was quite magical. In fact, if it weren't for the systematic shopping mall, he would have died long ago.
"I know the book you mentioned. It actually has some connection with the Dragon Clan. It was a mistaken Dragon King who was caught by the underworld and refined it alive, and finally named the Book of Life and Death." Cang Xiu said with a complicated look on his face.
Speaking of this, he felt a little lucky. If Li Si hadn't saved his daughter by chance, he would have ended up like this in the future.
This is also one of the reasons why he wants to repay Li Si.
When Li Si heard Cang Xiu's words, he was slightly stunned. Although he guessed that the old Taoist priest was using a ghost weapon, he did not expect that the ghost weapon was actually made from a dragon king. This was too horrible.
But then he thought that since everyone could eat dragons, it was no surprise to use dragons as refining materials.
"Actually, what the City God of Zetianfu holds is not the chief clerk, but just a branch. In each city, each city god has a book to record evil and ghosts in the country." Cang Xiu continued.
"Then what is the function of this ghost weapon?" Li Si felt curious and couldn't help asking.
Hearing Li Si's words, Cang Xiu thought for a while, his eyes narrowed slightly. It seemed that this mortal was really amazing. He even knew about the ghost weapon. Thinking of this, he also had the intention to make friends.
At the same time, he felt a little relieved. The more Li Si knew, the more he understood that Li Si could not become the city god.
After all, although ghosts come from humans, they are less distinctive in human nature. They are no longer the original self, but a monster born from themselves.
"The function of that ghost weapon is to intercept luck. Everyone in this world has luck. As long as a trace of luck is blocked, that ghost weapon can attract you back.
But the book is not that powerful. You can only use the luck above to know your life and death." Cang Xiu took a sip of tea and said lightly.
"Then why did I see the City God of Zetian Mansion killing ghosts with that sub-book?"
Li Si also had some guesses in his mind when he heard this, but he still wanted to confirm it with Cang Xiu.
"Because the City God of Zetian Mansion is different from other City Gods, he is a ghost who specializes in the luck of the book. He can directly kill people, ghosts, and monsters with the luck of the book. Therefore, the book is in him, which is stronger than the book itself."
Cang Xiu said.
Hearing Cang Xiu say this, Li Si nodded and thought to himself.
There were many things that the old Taoist priest said to him at the beginning, but there were still some real ones.
In his heart, he estimated that the old Taoist priest would cultivate qi fortune and prolong his life when he was alive. After he became a ghost, he still used qi fortune to cultivate disaster.
At this time, he also felt a deep sense of crisis in his heart. He was not sure whether he had the luck to be intercepted by the old Taoist priest. If he was intercepted, it would be really bad.
Li Si felt a little cold in her heart when she thought of the scenes of the old Taoist priest killing Yan Ling, Nie Da and those monsters.
"I just carefully observed your luck, and your luck has indeed been cut off for a period of time."
What Cang Xiu said again made Li Si's heart feel cold.
"Is there any way to rescue me?" Li Si took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.
Hearing Li Si's words, Cang Xiu's face showed a hesitant look, and then nodded and said, "Yes, but you can't do it."
When Li Si heard the preface, she was happy at first, but when she heard the second half of the sentence, she felt relieved.
"If you want to survive, you must regain your luck, but with your current ability, you will definitely not be able to do it, even if I can't do it." Cang Xiu shook his head and said.
Li Si was cold all over when he heard this, which meant that he could not have seized his luck before he was stronger than the old Taoist priest.
Thinking of the old Taoist priest making Long Jun so afraid, he felt a little desperate.
"But there is another way." At this moment, Cang Xiu, who was beside him, suddenly laughed.
"What's the solution?"
