Grudge Breaker

Chapter 219: The Art of Hiding Puppetry (Part )
He felt very guilty, blaming himself for taking Song Weichen's needs for granted and forgetting to explain the most "common" yet "most important" knowledge point for every resentment-breaking master.

"Puppet spirit is an obsession that will last until death."

"Humans have seven emotions and six desires. The six desires disappear when a person dies, but the seven emotions are hard to disappear until death."

"And these seven emotions of joy, anger, worry, thought, sadness, fear, and shock become the nourishment of the puppet. The deeper the obsession, the heavier the puppet spirit. The same kind attracts and combines, and eventually becomes a chaotic spirit."

"So visualizing the puppet's qi is equivalent to visualizing the seven emotions."

"In the initial stage of practice, you can establish a connection by recalling people or events in your life that you can empathize with the seven emotions. Once you are familiar with them, you can successfully enter the visualization by evoking that feeling, and the connection will become easier and easier."

After Mo Tingfeng finished speaking, Song Weichen thought for a moment and raised his hand to speak, "Teacher Mo, I have a question."

“Since there are seven emotions, do I have to visualize them all in what order, or can I just pick one at random?”

Mo Tingfeng nodded approvingly. The fact that she asked effective questions showed that she really understood.

"You need to align your Qi first, which is also called 'aligning the Qi'."

"Give rise to seven emotions in your heart. They don't have to be strong, but they should be as pure as possible. For example, 'surprised and happy', 'sad and happy', and 'mixed joy and sorrow' are wrong emotions. You can try to visualize a moment related to the seven emotions respectively. You will get the answer if you try."
.
Song Weichen did as he was told and quickly "generated" seven pictures in his mind, corresponding to the seven emotions.

When she visualized the fourth scene - entering the Huangjia Village illusion for the first time, she wanted to find a substitute for Huang Hu's henchman, and the person she was thinking of was Mo Tingfeng, she suddenly felt the puppet spirit in the distance begin to respond to her. It was hard to describe what that feeling was like, it was as if a song just sounded in her mind and the other party sang it out of his mouth.

"It's the thoughts of the seven emotions!" Song Weichen shouted.

Mo Tingfeng smiled. This was the chaotic soul puppet of the same type as Huang Hu. They were both war ghosts in the southern border, and they missed their families and their loved ones very much. The little girl's visualization link was correct. It must be the thoughts of the seven emotions.

"Now use the mantra I taught you, combined with the hand gestures, to summon the puppet energy and control the puppet."

Song Weichen did as he was told.

Soon, from Mo Tingfeng's perspective, he saw python-like and dragon-like puppet qi swam out from the bottom of the lake. Two of them even had faint lightning patterns on their bodies. Although they were the remaining qi after the formation was broken, they were also powerful enough not to be underestimated.

All these dragons and pythons drilled into the puppet in Song Weichen's hand and disappeared.

"It's done!"

Song Weichen opened her eyes, unable to conceal her excitement, she suddenly jumped up and grabbed Mo Tingfeng's arm, jumping and shouting. Mo Tingfeng was worried that she would feel dizzy after jumping up so suddenly, so he supported her without saying a word.

"Well, it's done."

Mo Tingfeng looked at her with a smile. The little girl was very smart and could learn things easily. He felt quite accomplished as a "master".

Song Weichen looked at the jade pendant in her hand. It seemed to have become heavier and was trembling slightly in her palm. The vibration was very strange, as if it was in harmony with her heartbeat.

"It's so magical. I feel like I'm wearing a 'Three Body' device and playing a fairy-tale game from a subjective perspective!"

She held up the jade pendant to the light, looked left and right, and poked it a few times.

"Do you think a system will really appear out of nowhere and tell me that you are my capture target, and that I have failed nine times before. Now is my last chance. But your favorability towards me is 9 now. You must raise it to 0 within a month, otherwise I will kill you."

"Or tell me that I am actually a female cockroach with amazing reproductive ability, referred to as Xiaomei, and you are the leader of the lion tribe, referred to as Dazhuang. I have 30 seconds left to live, and I must successfully get pregnant within this time to pause the system, and then trigger various golden fingers of the reproductive system, such as deadly body fragrance and uncontrollable pheromones. Anyway, I have to keep reproducing with various beastmen to save my life."

……

She saw Mo Tingfeng looking at her with a frown, and cleared her throat, feeling a little embarrassed.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Mo. I read too many poisonous online articles before, and my brain circuit went astray without me noticing. Please ignore it, ignore it."

Mo Tingfeng still looked at her with a frown in his eyes without saying a word.

Song Weichen smiled awkwardly and wondered why this old-fashioned man was so serious. She hadn't even mentioned the famous scenes such as "To transcend tribulation, one mainly relies on the sphincter to ascend", "The domineering president has 400 abdominal muscles" and "Kissing under the gorgeous fireworks of an atomic bomb explosion".

……

I am most afraid of the sudden silence in the air...

Song Weichen lowered his head and kicked the pebbles on the ground with his toes out of boredom.

"Weiwei, did you say something just now? I received two urgent directional messages from the Territory Lord and Yuheng, and I was busy listening to them and ignored you. Sorry."

"Ah? Is that so... No! I didn't say anything just now, don't slander me."

Song Weichen denied it three times in a row. Luckily, he didn't hear those nonsense. There should be more targeted messages with such "perceptiveness". She gave it a five-star rating! .
"Is there something urgent? Should we hurry back?"

Mo Tingfeng shook his head and helped Song Weichen tidy up the hair on his temples that was messed up by the wind.

"The territory master said that the celebration party for the closing of the Ghost Husband case originally scheduled for half a month has been postponed for some reason and will be held a month later. It happens to be the season when the cherry blossoms and magnolias are in full bloom. We can enjoy the flowers, play the zither, recite poems, and drink wine together."

He paused and spoke with some embarrassment.

"The territory master has named two people to attend the banquet. One is the White Robe Reverend. He heard that the White Robe Reverend had made great contributions in solving the ghost husband case and should be rewarded. I think he also felt guilty about the last punishment of kneeling, so he wanted to sympathize and comfort him."

"The other person is Sang Pu. The territory master said that he heard from others that I have a very good private musician, and he must invite him to the banquet to celebrate together." "Well done!"

Song Weichen's face was filled with joy (bushi).

"So you guys are celebrating your success by making things difficult for a fool like me?"

Hearing this, Mo Tingfeng almost couldn't hold back his laughter. To be more precise, it seemed to be true...

"I intend to take this opportunity to tell the Lord the truth and restore your body as a daughter."

"First, Sang Pu's identity as a zither player is no longer safe, and hiding it any further will do more harm than good. Second, I think we need to consider our marriage. Although I don't mind people mistaking me for a homosexual, I must marry you in a dignified and formal way. The sense of ceremony is very important, and I care about it."

If it were in the past, Song Weichen would definitely be very happy to hear him say this.

To put it slyly, he had to do the work of two roles without getting paid for one, and was even misunderstood by the territory master as being slacking off, which was a great joy.

Moreover, she now truly loves this Bingtuozi, and hopes to spend the rest of her life with him like they did in Huangjia Village in the dreamland, never leaving him, which is a double happiness.

But it seems too late to hear this now. Song Weichen only feels his eyes are sore and astringent. Hmm, maybe it's dry eyes syndrome.

She rubbed her eyes, smiled at Mo Tingfeng and shook her head.

"Let's not talk about it for now."

"Why?"

"because……"

Song Weichen quickly found an excuse in her mind - she couldn't tell him, because everything would be different after the Chinese Valentine's Day, and it didn't matter whether she would return to being a girl or not.

……

"Because I am the number one suspect in the White Robe Case, and now I can't find the former White Robe or the murderer, so it may not be a good time to restore my identity. Let's wait a little longer. It won't be too late to talk about it when the White Robe Case is solved and I am cleared of all charges."

"Oh, just listen to me. Remember to help me cover up on the day of the celebration party. I'm playing two roles by myself. I'm tired, but don't let your acting get exposed. You'll end up losing more than you gain."

Mo Tingfeng looked very hesitant and did not seem to accept her "reason", so Song Weichen quickly changed the subject.

"By the way, what is the message that Brother Yuheng sent you?"

"He said that he was specially sought out by the territory lord's secret guards as soon as he arrived at Wu Zi Pavilion, because Princess Qin Xueying was injured and unconscious while accompanying the territory lord on the spring hunt at Kong Mei Border. She has now been sent to Si Kong Mansion, and Yu Heng has also rushed back."

Song Weichen was moved when he heard this.

"What is Brother Yuheng doing at Wuzi Pavilion?"

"He went to look for records related to the art of controlling puppets to see if he could help you."

Song Weichen was deeply moved. Zhuang Yuheng always cared about other people. It seemed that he had known him for such a long time, but he had never done anything for him. Instead, he was always worrying about the people around him. What is a god in the immortal family? This is a god in the immortal family.

If this is the case, it is probably only a matter of time before he discovers the solution to the love-killing restriction.

Originally, Song Weichen wanted to find an excuse to invite Zhuang Yuheng to go to Wu Zi Restaurant, but now it seems that there is no need at all. The rider Xiaozhuang has already taken the initiative to take up his post and is just waiting for the "private dishes" of the owner of Wu Zi Restaurant to be ready.

"Is the princess seriously injured? Should we take some time to go and see her? I'll go with you in a white robe. I guess the celebration banquet was postponed for this reason."

Song Weichen remembered that girl. She was dignified, emotionally and intelligently. She was completely different from Ruan Mianmian. She had a good impression of her.

Although she was poisoned by the Lao Longjing water at that time, and her behavior was strange and her words were insincere, Qin Xueying did not make a fuss about it. She was even compassionate and wanted to plead for her to the territory master. If it was Ruan Mianmian, she would have habitually added insult to injury.

It is reasonable for you to go see her.

"Okay, I'll send a message to Yuheng. We'll go after she wakes up. Going now will only interfere with the treatment."

Song Weichen nodded and looked at the lake again.

Even with the jade pendant in her hand, there was no trace of purple mist in Mianhu Lake. It seemed that the puppet energy had been completely absorbed by her.

She remembered that Ding Heran had mentioned before that some people walking at night always seemed to be going around in circles in the same place, saying that they encountered a ghost wall. In fact, most of the time it was because they had mistakenly entered a place with strong puppet aura, or had been contaminated by the puppet aura and were disturbed.

So Song Weichen was quite happy. No matter what level she could reach in the future, it would be a good thing if she could absorb all the puppet energy.

She stuffed the jade pendant into the inside pocket of her lapel.

"Shall we go? Now that we are here, let's go into the village and take a look."

"and many more."

Mo Tingfeng stopped her.

"Do you want to try out the power of the puppet energy you just absorbed?"
