"The plot's inertia is ridiculously strong!"
After hearing Ning Caichen's miserable story, Hao Shuai couldn't help but think, The plot's inertia really is ridiculously strong!
Seriously~~
Hao Shuai had changed the story of A Chinese Ghost Story 1 so much, yet Ning Caichen had still ended up in this state. Hao Shuai didn't know whether to say Ning Caichen had terrible luck or that his protagonist's luck was simply too strong.
After comforting Ning Caichen for a few moments, Hao Shuai looked at Zhi Qiu Yiye, who was using a piece of grass to pick his teeth, and asked in feigned puzzlement, "Brother Zhi Qiu, Brother Ning just escaped from prison, so it's no surprise he's starving. But why are you so disheveled?"
Hao Shuai had offered them food partly to entertain Ning Caichen, but his main reason was that he was interested in the somewhat carefree Zhi Qiu Yiye.
Of course~~
He wasn't interested in Zhi Qiu Yiye as a person. He coveted the Daoist magic from Kunlun Mountain that Zhi Qiu Yiye had learned.
Zhi Qiu Yiye was a young scholar of magic who had come down from Kunlun Mountain to train. Eccentric and energetic, he was also full of righteousness and often made strange, exaggerated expressions. Though still young, he had already mastered much of Kunlun's Daoist magic.
There was no need to mention his demon-subduing techniques, such as Wind—Ghost Banishing and Demon Extermination Order, Fire—Heavenly Dipper Fivefold Separation Flame, and Thunder—Wind and Thunder Earthshaking Order. What Hao Shuai truly coveted were the Mountain-Moving and Sea-Turning spell and the Body Immobilization Spell that Zhi Qiu Yiye used in the story.
Mountain-Moving and Sea-Turning was a large-scale telekinetic spell. It could move anything from trees to mountain ranges, and could also be used to control a sword.
