Chapter 81 True Fear
According to Xu Ming.
Wu Xian was already in the third stage before.
"Pupation...but what does this have to do with you lying to me?"
Xu Ming smiled awkwardly.
"I want to apologize to you. I had no choice but to deceive you. All this was done to lure out the surname Jia."
"Jia?"
Xu Ming sighed.
"Yes, Jia, a former friend of mine. He is the most threatening body snatcher in recent times. He specifically hunts and kills patients who have been cured, and claims that such humans taste better."
"But we can't find the hiding place of Jia..."
"So we took you to dinner in a swaggering manner, with the purpose of attracting him to attack you, thus completely solving this problem."
Xu Ming did not continue speaking.
Wu Xian didn't ask either.
With the premise of luring the criminal out, many things can be explained.
Wu Xian was silent for a while, then asked Xu's name.
"The gun that just killed Jia seems very different."
Xu Ming raised his head proudly.
"That's a firearm I invented, specifically for fighting evil spirits!"
"I discovered that although evil spirits are not afraid of ordinary weapons, certain special ingredients in things like black dog blood, black donkey hooves, female blood, and boy's urine can cause harm to them!"
"So I found a way to extract the special factors from these items, which led to the creation of this special firearm. Without this weapon, we humans would have been slaughtered long ago."
Wu Xian gave a thumbs up and complimented, "That's amazing, you are indeed a great inventor. Can you give me some help?"
Xu Ming smiled awkwardly: "Let's talk about it after dinner..."
……
This time they didn't have to catch the Jia family, so they didn't have to walk to the leader's residence, nor did they have to wait for the leader to arrive before they could eat.
Wu Xian returned to the official residence again and went straight into the room on the top floor.
Xu Ming pushed open the luxurious door and invited Wu Xian to go in.
The room is not big, but it is decorated extremely luxuriously, with gold and diamonds decorating everywhere, highlighting a wealthy style.
In the middle of the room was a huge round table, and in the center of the table was a huge dinner plate that was two meters wide and one meter long. The main seat at the table was empty, and there were more than twenty men and women sitting around it, all of whom looked successful people.
In front of each seat, there are plates and cutlery, such as bone crushing hammers, scalpels, electric saws, etc.
On the wall directly opposite the door hangs a huge oil painting.
The owner of the painting is wearing a gorgeous suit, and his face is...
It’s Xu Ming!
After Wu Xian noticed the oil painting on the wall, the expression on Xu Ming's face suddenly became arrogant. He held his head high and walked towards the main seat. Everyone in the room stood up and bowed to him.
The so-called leader.
From the very beginning, it was Xu Ming!
Wu Xian sighed.
As soon as he entered the room, he understood what was going on.
Even if the meal hasn't started yet, it's not like the plates have been placed without any dishes on them. Even if the dishes are very hardcore, there's no need to use a bone crusher as tableware, right?
Except Xu Ming.
Everyone in the room held their cutlery tightly, staring at Wu Xian with strange lights flashing in their eyes. One fat man even drooled.
What do they want to eat?
Obviously, it was Wu Xian.
Wu Xian's expression didn't change much, he even took the initiative to close the door.
"I know you all can't wait, but could you please listen to me for a few words first, as a pre-dinner entertainment?" Xu Ming looked at Wu Xian with a playful expression.
"Please begin your performance."
Wu Xian's first words made Xu Ming's face change slightly: "In fact, I have long guessed that you are all evil spirits."
"How did you guess that?"
As Wu Xian spoke, he walked around the room, and Xu Ming and others did not stop him.
"To be honest, you have too many loopholes, such as the looks of those passers-by... You said they were suspicious of possession syndrome, but those who just experienced extreme hunger can see that it was not a sign of vigilance, but... hunger!"
Xu Ming looked at the waiter next to him and said, "Send a notice and ask them to perform more seriously next time. If they show such obvious loopholes again, I will dig out their eyes!"
Wu Xian narrowed his eyes slightly.
With such a high-profile announcement, it seems that there are indeed not many living people left in this world.
He continued.
"Another suspicious point comes from Jia. The loophole that exposed his identity was that he did not spray himself with the spray that the evil spirits would find delicious."
"He said he forgot, but I guess that's not the real reason."
"Maybe the reason why he didn't use the spray is that there are so many body-stealing monsters out there, so many that they are everywhere, so he didn't dare to spray himself, fearing that he would also be regarded as food by his own kind!"
Xu Ming pouted: "This damn Jia, I should have killed him long ago."
After this world was occupied by the Body-Snatching Demon, living people became precious resources. Every living person had to be shared by many Body-Snatching Demons. It was by virtue of sharing resources that Xu Ming became the leader of the Body-Snatching Demon order.
But Jia is a destroyer of order. He has monopolized precious living resources many times, which has aroused public anger and made him a wanted criminal in the entire world of the Soul-stealing Evil.
Wu Xian walked to the window facing the square and stopped. He reached out and fiddled with it to make sure that the window could be opened.
Then he turned around and looked into Xu Ming's eyes, his tone full of provocation.
"Mr. Xu, you seem to think that I noticed that you were all wearing human skins, and it was other people's fault that caused you to be exposed, but in fact, you are the one with the biggest loophole!"
"You may like this play very much, but let me be honest... your directing ability is terrible."
Xu Ming's face changed suddenly.
What he was most proud of was his acting skills. Leading other body-snatching ghosts in acting and giving all of them a sense of participation in persecuting living people was his greatest achievement. However, now he was belittled by Wu Xian as worthless.
"Dog hair in the lab, a luxurious mansion that shouldn't exist, a restaurant but no food smells, someone is clearly experiencing possession syndrome but no one questions my ignorance..."
"You have too many loopholes. Do you know when I confirmed that you had problems?"
Xu Ming gritted his teeth and asked, "When?"
"Of course at the beginning!"
Wu Xian took out the Bagua Magic Mirror and introduced the mirror's abilities to everyone. Then he rubbed the mirror in front of Xu Ming and others to activate its spirituality. Everyone present, without exception, had evil faces that were unbearable to look at.
"Remember when you were kneeling on the ground, I turned away for a while?"
"I used this thing to shoot you guys..."
"It's hard to describe how bad I felt at that time. I thought I was dead. Fortunately, your weakness was too obvious, so I was able to survive until now and get here safely."
Xu Ming frowned: "You said we have weaknesses?"
Wu Xian's lips curled up.
"Yes, you have weaknesses."
"This weakness is that you are too much like humans. You always imitate humans, but your imitation is not perfect, so I am still alive today!"
"Do you think that just because you're wearing human skin and living a human life, you're stronger than before?"
"No, you are only scary when you are monsters!"
