He turned into an old cat wearing human clothes.

An unknown amount of time passed before dark clouds obscured the bright moon. More than twenty corpses stood up below the Tongtian Road.

Each of them wore a hat, pulled their heads down, hunched over, and used thick clothes to cover the hair on their bodies.

Slowly walking towards the market below Tongtian Road, looking for relatives and friends in memory.

On the other side, Changle and others caught up with Li Mo at the fastest speed.

When he heard the footsteps behind him, Li Mo's pace obviously quickened, but he did not look back.

It was not until Changle called out, "Brother Mingyue" that Li Mo stopped, but still did not look back. Instead, he took out a thermometer.

The thermometer didn't drop significantly as the footsteps approached, and Li Mo finally let down his guard.

"You're lucky you chose to follow."

Li Mo turned around and said calmly.

This statement seemed a bit arrogant, and several martial artists were unhappy.

"What do you mean, Brother Mingyue?" Changle asked humbly.

Li Mo took a deep breath and decided to give them one last chance.

"This is not something you should know. I still say the same thing. If you insist on going up the mountain, it is almost impossible to return alive."

"As for the reason, I have no explanation. If you still want to get down the mountain alive, follow me. Wait until the sun rises and the sky is bright. Once you get down the mountain, don't go near the Tongtian Road again."

Before he could finish his words, the warrior retorted angrily, "We've spent so much energy and time to get here, how can we just go back like that?"

"Are you planning to monopolize the immortal's favor by climbing the mountain? Otherwise, why don't you tell us the specific reason? If there is a reason why we can't climb the mountain, we will naturally go down."

Four men in black surrounded Changle, still without saying a word.

Changle considered for a long time and decided that he had to reach the top this time. Unlike others, he had something very important to do, and this could only be accomplished by personally meeting the immortal.

"Ah..." Changle sighed, "Brother Mingyue, you have your reasons for climbing the mountain, and we also have our reasons for climbing the mountain."

"As for what kind of traps we might encounter after climbing the mountain, that's something we should consider on our own. Brother Mingyue, don't worry about it."

"Even if we die, it's our own fault and has nothing to do with Brother Mingyue. Brother Mingyue, just keep moving forward and give us some advice occasionally. We will also help Brother Mingyue to the best of our ability."

Changle was unwilling to fall out with the mysterious Li Mo, so she chose a plan of win-win cooperation without dragging each other down.

Li Mo thought for a moment and carefully looked at the person behind him.

Changle brought four men in black who were suspected to be guards, as well as three martial artists, making a total of nine people including him.

Li Mo was not clear about the true situation of Taixu Mountain. If there was a law of inevitable death, someone needed to test it.

When encountering danger, you will not die suddenly.

But as a price, these people who have not been exposed to strange events may trigger more unknown strange laws, putting themselves at risk from being attacked by multiple laws.

Teamwork is a double-edged sword, with both advantages and disadvantages.

"Okay, I have only one condition."

"Brother Mingyue, it's okay to speak frankly."

"Don't order me around. Also, you'd better listen to me at critical moments. A team needs a leader. To you, I'm just a stranger, so I won't force myself to be the team's commander-in-chief. You just need to listen to me at certain critical moments."

"Including you, Changle. I know you have a special status, so let me be frank. If you don't obey me in that situation, I don't mind dealing with you before I deal with the matter."

Chapter 3 Forgetting

Changle gave a helpless smile. "Of course, Brother Mingyue knows more and naturally has the right to make the decision. But... Changle is very curious about what kind of situation Brother Mingyue is talking about?"

Li Mo was silent for a few seconds, not wanting to continue this topic.

So he changed the subject and told the result directly.

"You don't want to see that happen, because then we'll all be dead and I won't be able to take care of you."

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of the warriors. However, Changle raised his hand to signal for silence, and the warriors stopped making noise.

"Since we have reached an agreement, let's go up the mountain. Brother Mingyue, do you want to go first or do we go first?" Changle asked politely.

"Meow……"

Li Mo was about to answer when he heard an untimely cat meow.

"Brother Mingyue!?"

Changle saw Li Mo's pupils shrink into wheat spikes in an instant, his relaxed expression tensed, and he turned around without saying a word.

The old lady cat’s first cry was to let everyone know, “I’m here.”

But people who don't know this rule are still wondering why cat meows occur.

"leave here."

The sharp cat cry stimulated Li Mo's sensitive nerves.

A strange intuition made Li Mo run towards the top of the mountain at full speed without looking back, completely ignoring what strange things might happen ahead on the Taixu Tongtian Road.

Just like the funeral, if you can’t even survive the present, let alone the future.

"Run? Why run? Hahaha, he was scared like this by a cat's meow. I think it's just a facade, just pretending to be a ghost." The warrior couldn't help but laugh out loud after holding it in for so long.

But the next second, he saw Changle leading everyone to chase Li Mo, leaving him standing alone, and the breath of death instantly enveloped his whole body.

"Meow……"

The body of a dead cat fell from the sky and landed in front of the warrior.

However, unlike the previous man, the warriors were much more alert. How could a cat appear in the middle of the Taixu Tongtian Road? And a dead cat at that?

"Damn it!"

The warrior was a little scared, kicked the dead cat off the cliff, and ran after it.

But suddenly, the warrior fell to the ground. His body seemed to no longer be human. The conflict between his habits and real limbs caused him to fall heavily to the ground.

"Meow……"

The third cat meow came as expected. The warrior vaguely heard faint footsteps behind him and turned his head tremblingly to look.

The hunchbacked old man wearing a hat walked slowly towards him step by step.

Suddenly, she stopped at the place where the dead cat had just fallen, motionless.

A pair of beast-like hands placed on the hat and took it off, revealing the strange, half-human, half-cat head.

In the deep darkness, two strange green eyes stared straight at the warrior.

The warrior wanted to stand up and escape, but found that his thighs had shrunk, becoming extremely thin and short, and could not support his huge body to move.

A human head with a cat face is faintly visible.

The warrior wanted to shout for help from Changle, but when he called out, only a shrill cat cry came out of his throat...

"Meow……"

On the dark path, the green eyeballs turned, staring at the crowd leaving on the hillside.

He was not familiar with them.

Turning around and walking down the mountain, looking for the relatives and friends in my memory...

After ten minutes of high-intensity running, everyone didn't know how many steps they had climbed, but they only knew that the temperature on the mountain was getting colder and colder, so cold that it was biting.

After the strange aura disappeared, Li Mo slowly slowed down his pace and looked back, only to see darkness.

"Brother Mingyue, you're finally willing to stop. If we keep running like this, we might encounter demons blocking our way before we're ready."

Changle was thankful that the faster you walked on the Tongtian Road, the easier it would be to reach the top. On the contrary, you would only die faster.

"Who are you?" Li Mo was puzzled.

"..."

"Hey, hey, Brother Mingyue, are you kidding me? I'm Changle. We exchanged names before, and it's only been a while... there's no way you've forgotten, right?!"

Changle's expression was very strange, and he looked at Li Mo with confusion.

Everyone also showed strange looks. The man in black beside Changle tightened his grip and held the weapon at his waist, ready to draw it out at any time to protect Changle's safety.

"..."

There seemed to be a hint of confusion hidden in Li Mo's eyes. The other party had no reason to lie to him. Moreover, he did have the memory of calling himself "Ming Yue". At least before they separated not long ago, several warriors called him that.

But he really didn't know this man named Changle.

Li Mo tried hard to recall all his previous memories, trying to find some clues that his memories had been tampered with.

He was dragged into a hazy dream midway and could not remember anything except a few words.

He was awakened from his dream by encountering this group of people. There were more than twenty of them, and Li Mo didn't remember their faces very well.

Later, while going up the mountain, an ordinary person suddenly died on the road, but it was actually a corpse that had been dead for several days, wrapped in a ghost shroud, and mixed in with the crowd without being noticed.

Considering that the human-headed ghost had tampered with the memories and cognition of people around him, it was very likely that he was affected in this process.

But it doesn't make sense...

If the ghost shroud can affect the cognition and memory of the surrounding people, then the target is definitely not just Li Mo.

Judging from everyone's reactions now, it is obvious that only his memory is missing.

Keep thinking...

Li Mo recalled according to normal linear time.

He verified that the true identity of the shroud was a ghost. The moment he saw the red rope fade, he left the scene where the strange power remained without hesitation. This was the right thing to do.

Because the red rope has faded, it means that the ghost nearby is very close to the living person, and there is a risk of death for every second they stay. There is no such thing as a ghost not daring to attack because there are many people and strong yang energy.

Ghosts only follow rules.

Then a small group of people decided to follow him, apparently thinking that he knew more information and there was an element of gambling involved.

But most people are still staying where they are, and there is no news from them now, so most of them are in danger.

Li Mo didn't think it was a problem to say that the entire army was wiped out.

However, he was more worried that the dozens of dead people would become weird derivatives, or even become new weirdness.

Then the situation becomes somewhat uncontrollable.

Soon, disagreements arose within their small group. Some wanted to wait for the larger group to arrive, while others wanted to follow him up the mountain.

Everyone chose to follow him. Of course, there was an ordinary person who was left behind due to physical reasons, and his life or death was unknown.

Finally, Li Mo decided to give them one last chance to choose, a chance to live. However, no one was willing to give up the opportunity that was right in front of them, and they insisted on going up the mountain to meet the immortal and ask for what they wanted.

Li Mo was helpless about this, and heard a cat's meow while he was talking.

Taixu Mountain is towering into the clouds, the air is thin, and supplies are scarce. If it weren't for human intervention, it would be impossible for a cat to appear in the middle layer.

After dying once, Li Mo's perception of the weird became more acute. His instinct almost urged him to leave quickly. A cold aura enveloped his body, and the thermometer dropped sharply.

So he led his men away, but it seemed that one warrior was disdainful and did not follow, and he is probably dead now.

Otherwise, after such a long time, I would definitely be able to meet them by sprinting with all my strength.

Is it the cat's meow that blurs the memory?

Do not……

If the sound of a cat's meow can blur memory, then other people's memories should also be blurred, rather than just one's own memory being the problem.

and many more?

Li Mo suddenly realized a key factor, a factor that he had overlooked from the beginning.

He remembered the four black-clad guards beside the man who called himself Changle, and he also remembered the two martial artists who followed him, but he had forgotten Changle.

So far, past experience has revealed one thing:

Strange abilities are not without reason, even if they sound inexplicable and terrifying...

In fact, it is strange that one cannot use the ability 100% perfectly.

The same is true for tampering with memory and cognition. The weirdness that can tamper with memory and cognition will only tamper with the memory and cognition allowed within the rules.
