Yin Yang Lantern Man

Chapter 42: Light Realm
"But I see that you still seem to be able to see clearly."

The light from Chen Ning'an's lantern flashed across his eyes, leaving a bloody hole in them, but his gaze was clearly still on him.

"Because... this is the world of lanterns."

Ye Anren said: "My body is blind, and the one looking at you now is mine...my...

He organizes words and language to give an explanation of his own situation.

"Yes, ghost! Now, it's my ghost looking at you!"

“Only when a person dies can he become a ghost.”

Chen Ningan corrected him, "Your current situation can be called a soul. According to scientific understanding, it is a condensed consciousness energy magnetic field."

"Ah?" Ye Anren didn't understand what soul was.

"wrong."

Suddenly, Uncle Liu, who had been listening, spoke up: "If the new Qin currency is ghost money, then the money we used for breakfast just now was also the new Qin currency, so why didn't we have our eyes taken away?"

Uncle Liu is a middle-aged man after all, and he is an emergency doctor who often comes into contact with dead bodies, so he barely adapted to the comings and goings.

Now he raised doubts, suspecting that this Ye An man was deceiving him and Chen Ning'an.

"What I said is real!"

After this rebuttal, Ye Anren almost collapsed. He was afraid that Chen Ningan would kill him.

"You are telling the truth."

Chen Ningan said: "I did pay my share, and you, my doctor, also paid."

“Did I pay too?”

Uncle Liu didn't understand. He remembered something: "You burned the money. Burning it counts as payment, not ghost money?"

"Then I..."

"Isn't your second brother Liu still at the stall?"

Chen Ning'an came to the window and pointed outside, and saw Brother Liu Er with blood holes in his eyes sitting on a stool with a blank expression on his face, blood constantly flowing down.

"Second brother!"

Uncle Liu shouted subconsciously, feeling frightened and heartbroken.

"He is no longer a normal living person."

Ye Anren trembled, and finally added: "Me neither."

Such a strange situation is scary.

"Do you know what caused all this?"

Chen Ningan asked him: "Or is this the consequence of the Lantern World being completely out of control?"

"No, I don't know. No, it's not."

The answer given by Ye Anren was a little vague. It was probably because he didn't know the answer to the first question. No, it was referring to the consequences of the lantern world being completely out of control.

"It's...it's the Light Realm. What's scary is the Light Realm."

"Light Realm?"

Another unfamiliar word that Chen Ningan had never seen on the forum.

"Tell me in detail." Chen Ning'an's words were calm and steady, so that others would be influenced and at least not be scared crazy.

After a while, Ye An came to his senses. He told Chen Ningan, "You don't carry lanterns often enough, and even the pioneers don't understand it very well."

"The Light Realm is a special existence in that world. It is usually derived from a core event or object. The Light Realm is a general name for this kind of place."

"This is a realm of light, and it will only be so terrifying if the realm of light gets out of control!"

Having said this, the Ye Anren swallowed and said, "I'm so thirsty, do you have any water?"

"Have."

Chen Ning'an took out a bag of "fresh stuff" given to him by Uncle Liu from his backpack, and the latter immediately took it and started drinking it in big gulps.

He couldn't taste it; it wasn't water at all.

Chen Ningan understood in his heart that this person had also become "it".

After drinking a bag of "water", the man seemed to have regained a lot of strength. Chen Ningan then slowly asked him another question.

"What is a realm master?" The realm of lights, the realm of lights, the realm master, there is a definite and necessary connection between the two!

"Lord of the Realm!!!"

Blood flowed from Ye Anren's eyes: "Where did you know this word?!"

He was very panicked, and like Hu Ping'an, he reacted very strongly to this question!
"Lord of the Realm, are you the Lord of the Lamp Realm?" Chen Ning'an continued to question him.

"No, no, not all of them..."

The Ye Anren covered his lipless teeth and said, "Don't ask, don't ask. Asking too much will be bad for everyone."

His tone was almost pleading: "You will know when you hold the lantern a certain number of times. Please, don't ask anymore."

But Chen Ning'an did not give up, he still wanted to know the answer.

"You can't even say it here?"

Chen Ningan continued to question and threatened: "If you want to leave here alive, tell me!"

"Brother, Territory Lord, yes... yes...

At this moment, Ye An suddenly got stuck, covered his neck and scratched frantically.

"no no!"

He kept begging for mercy: "I was wrong, I was wrong, I haven't said it yet, I haven't... uh... uh... uh...

He was speechless and fell to the ground!

Uncle Liu immediately squatted down to check, but he only saw that Ye Anren’s neck was pitch black and the other party had lost his heartbeat and pulse.

When I touched it, it was as cold as Chen Ning'an's. It was deader than dead.

Uncle Liu could only look up at his patient: "He...how did he die?"

This unscientific way of dying was truly beyond his understanding.

"Perhaps, he was killed by the so-called territory master."

Chen Ningan subconsciously touched his shoulder. What on earth was the Territory Master? Could he make them so scared?
Moreover, when mentioned, it can kill a living person directly, right in front of his eyes.

It is a pity that the Dharma King Anjiang died so suddenly that Chen Ningan could not get answers to many questions. Perhaps only people at the level of a guide knew these secrets.

Guide, guide...

He pondered. Didn’t they send two guides down this time? Would the other party come to this realm of lights?
And what is the core of the Light Realm?
There were too many puzzles and too much fun, which made Chen Ning'an's heart excited.

This kind of world is really likable!
He looked at the dark city. The candle had burned out, but there was no sign of him leaving.

They were trapped in the realm of lights.

"Ning An, look downstairs."

Uncle Liu suddenly pulled Chen Ningan's clothes and pointed downstairs.

Liu Erge, who was left behind, stood up woodenly, and the boss took off one of his ears.

"Hasn't the eye already paid for it? Why do you still want the ear?"

"Maybe this is a punishment, giving you some time to raise the interest instead of paying off the debt."

Chen Ning'an guessed, and then began to feel around the three bodies.

Since they are all lantern bearers, there should be some good things.

Sure enough, he touched two bottles of medicine, one bottle contained three pills, and the other bottle contained one pill.

This is the amount for twelve days.

Then he touched a rolled-up piece of skin, which was bloody. When he unfolded it, he saw a wound inside the skin.

The wound has turned moldy and green, but the surrounding skin is still a healthy color.

Why would the other party keep this kind of thing?

Chen Ning'an threw it on the lantern man. It was not even qualified to be used for drawing talismans.

But when the wound on the skin came into contact with the body of the dead lantern man, it immediately corroded a large piece of flesh and even "ate" the bones without any hindrance.

Chen Ningan hurriedly picked it up, realizing that he had made a mistake. Fortunately, he did not touch the wound on the skin just now. It turned out to be so terribly poisonous.
