Under One Person: The Millennium Plan Exposed by Feng Baobao

Thinking of this, Zhang Chulan stopped talking.

Feng Baobao's voice continued to narrate.

After observing for a while, I gradually felt bored. It's a waste of time to spend time with someone like Li Muxuan. I still have a lot of things to do, and now is the time to do them.

[I first found the reincarnated Zhang Jue. He has now sold most of his treasures and given me a check for $90 million.]

After the two were settled, I asked the reincarnated Zhang Jiao what he planned to do next.

The reincarnated Zhang Jue told me that he had no ambition to unify the world. He said that a decisive battle would soon be fought among all the reincarnated warlords of the Three Kingdoms. After the battle, a winner would emerge. This winner would have the choice of ending this thousand-year-long killing spree or allowing it to continue.

If the victor chooses to allow this millennium-long killing spree to continue, then after all the reincarnated beings die, they will continue to reincarnate after a period of time. After reincarnation, everyone will regain the power of the spiritual jade to kill again, and this cycle will repeat.

[However, if one chooses to end this millennium-long killing spree, then the souls of all the reincarnated characters from the Three Kingdoms will vanish into thin air, with no possibility of resurrection or reincarnation.]

Hearing this, everyone's heart skipped a beat.

If we choose to end this thousand-year killing game, wouldn't that mean everything will cease to exist?

It is better to let this killing game continue than to choose to completely disappear from this world.

Zhang Chulan couldn't help but speak.

"If I were the ultimate winner of this killing game, I probably wouldn't choose to end it in the end."

"Because if it ends, it means my soul will be shattered, and my former comrades, brothers, and even my lover will have no chance of resurrection."

After hearing Zhang Chulan's opinion, Su Zaiqiao said:

"I'm afraid the instigator of this millennium-long killing scheme has precisely grasped these people's psychology, making it impossible for them to take the initiative to stop it."

"Right now, I'm afraid these reincarnated people from the Three Kingdoms are still fighting each other somewhere unknown to us."

After hearing this, Xu Si helplessly spread his hands.

"These people seem to be very secretive about their whereabouts. Even the company has only found a few clues so far. Furthermore, there's a mysterious force protecting them, making it impossible for sorcerers to divine their exact location."

Hearing that there was a mysterious power protecting them, Zhang Chulan couldn't help but ask curiously.

"If that's the case, can we say that the mysterious power protecting these people was created by the being that set up the millennium-long killing plan?"

Xu Si nodded.

"What you said makes some sense, but the whereabouts of these people are so unpredictable."

"Also, before the Northern Expedition of the Republic of China, there were so many warlords, big and small, all over the country, and it's unknown which of them were reincarnations."

Zhang Chulan comforted him after hearing this:

"Fourth brother, since we don't know, there's no need for us to guess."

"Let's first listen to what Sister Baoer has to say next."

After hearing this, Xu Si nodded.

"Row!"

After hearing this, Feng Baobao continued reading.

……

I asked Zhang Jue what he would do if he were the final victor. He told me that if he won, he would choose to let this thousand-year killing game continue, because only in this way could his and his brother's souls be preserved, and they would have the chance to be brothers again in the next life.

[I'm not surprised by Zhang Jiao's choice; anyone would make the same choice.]

[However, after I came up with this idea, I thought of Zhou Yu's reincarnation in his previous life. He was indeed a remarkable person. Now I think, if the winner of this thousand-year killing game was Zhou Yu in this life, perhaps this recurring killing game could be broken.]

【But there are no ifs in everything, and there are no hypotheses in history. 】

[All I can say is that I have to accept everything that happens, it's all fate.]

After using Fire Escape to deliver the $90 million to Tang Jian, I returned to the warlord's residence where Zhang Jiao was.

[I want to witness the end of this thousand-year killing game with my own eyes.]

[However, at this time, the feeling of being watched was stronger than ever before, as if the person watching me was hiding right next to me.]

Hearing that the person who was spying on him appeared again, Zhang Chulan couldn't help but frown.

"I don't know who this person is. He actually has such a bad taste."

"It can't even be called bad taste, it's simply full of malice."

Lu Jin said at this time:

"There are many hidden dragons and crouching tigers in this mortal world. Who knows, maybe one day we'll meet someone who is actually a god."

Hearing Lu Jin say this, Zhang Chulan immediately thought of what his master said about him possibly encountering a god.

"Maybe, maybe the gods are hiding among us."

at this time.

Feng Baobao is still reading.

[After I lived in Zhang Jiao's mansion for a while.]

This strong feeling gradually faded, and I informed Zhang Jue of this incident.

Zhang Jue told me that he had experienced this feeling several times in his previous lives, but he didn't pay much attention to it because he knew he would never be able to find the source. This was an intuition brought about by practicing the Taiping Essential Technique, or perhaps a feeling.

Even if you do nothing else in your life and focus solely on searching for the person who's spying on you, you won't be able to find them.

[To put it in more modern terms, the other person and you are not even in the same dimension.]

[You are in the third dimension, and the other party is in the fourth dimension, there is no way to find each other! ]

Chapter 170: The Unknown Years, the Dead Body Next to the Corpse of Nanhua Old Immortal

I didn't agree with what Zhang Jue said. I had a feeling that sooner or later, I would be able to find this person.

The deadline for the decisive battle between Zhang Jue and the other reincarnated warlords of the Three Kingdoms draws ever closer, and strange things continue to occur at Zhang Jue's base.

[What is most concerning is that the souls of some residents have begun to disappear inexplicably, and their bodies have become like the walking corpse.]

Although this situation caught Zhang Jiao's attention, he was still preparing for the decisive battle and had no time to deal with such trivial matters.

After hearing this, Xu Si suddenly realized something.

"If we can find out where this strange thing happened back then, wouldn't we be able to find out which warlord Zhang Jue was reincarnated as?"

After hearing this, Lu Jin shook his head repeatedly.

"Do you remember what I told you before about the evil demon in the Republic of China who kidnapped people with seven-point destiny?"

Everyone nodded after hearing this.

"Of course I remember this."

And Lu Jin then said:

"This kind of thing happened countless times during the Republic of China. Once troubled times came, some evil spirits hidden in the mountains and forests would appear."

"Their strength can be said to be unfathomable."

"If it weren't for some unknown rules, this world would have been ruled by these evil demons and ghosts until now."

Hearing Lu Jin say this, everyone suddenly felt a creepy feeling.

Zhang Chulan asked at this time:

"Master Lu, do you think this kind of evil demon still exists in modern society?"

"If they exist, where are they hiding?"

After hearing Zhang Chulan's words, Lu Jin laughed.

"We are now living in a prosperous era. This prosperity alone can crush these evil monsters to death."

"Naturally, these evil demons won't dare to come out and harm people again."

"Okay, keep listening. I feel like this is similar to the evil demon I once encountered, catching people. But unlike that evil demon, this one is catching souls."

After hearing this, everyone perked up and continued to listen to Feng Baobao's notes.

……

Because there were so many victims and it seemed so pitiful, I started investigating this matter.

【By constantly visiting the families of the victims.】

[Finally, I set my sights on a noodle stall that only opened late at night. All those who lost their souls and became the walking dead had one thing in common: they all ate noodles at this stall.]

[So I disguised myself as a merchant traveling late at night to see what was going on.]

[I have to say, the place where this noodle stall is located is very remote. I finally saw the owner of this noodle stall in a small alley.]

[The owner of this noodle stall is a middle-aged man who looks quite honest and simple.]

There were a few small wooden stools and tables nearby, seemingly intended for customers to eat noodles. They were a bit too small, more like something children might eat.

When I arrived, there was already a man eating noodles here, wearing a black coat, a brimmed hat, and round sunglasses.

[I saw someone had already eaten it, so I stood aside and observed to see how they reacted and what changes they had after eating it.]

The noodle stall owner kept telling me that eating a bowl of steaming hot noodles at night was a very pleasant experience.

I saw that the man didn't have any reaction after eating it, so I decided to observe what was different about the noodles at this noodle stall.

After I sat down, a bowl of noodles was quickly served. However, the man in sunglasses opposite me warned me that I couldn't eat it.

I didn't notice anything special about this bowl of noodles until I used the observation I learned from the Tang Sect. Only then did I realize that this bowl of noodles was just a mess. I don't know what the consequences will be after eating it.

[The man opposite me started chatting with me. He said his name was Zhao Li, and he was a ferryman. He came here to solve a problem.]

The noodle stall owner stopped what he was doing and looked at us intently, while Zhao Li began to tell a story.

[Once upon a time, there was a father who loved his child very much. The child was also very smart and well-behaved. But one day, the child suddenly drowned and died. The father was completely devastated and began to search like crazy for a way to revive his child. However, in the process of searching, the father also died. However, he did not know it and always thought he was still alive.]

Finally, someone told him that if he could find the legendary Pawnshop No. 8, he could pawn something of equal value to the owner of the pawnshop to bring his child back to life.

The pawnshop owner told him that it would take the souls of a hundred people to bring his child back to life, so he transformed himself into a ghost to pursue the souls and claim their lives. Every night he would appear in a small alley selling noodles.

[When Zhao Li said this, I realized that what Zhao Li was talking about was actually the story of the noodle stall owner.]

[It seems that even if I hadn't come today, the situation here would have been resolved.]

【My coming here is unnecessary.】

Listening to the contents of the notes, Zhang Chulan couldn't help but feel curious.

"What is this ferryman, and what is Pawnshop No. 8?"

"Is it really possible to pawn someone's soul to resurrect them?"

Lu Jin's eyes were deep.

"I've said before that countless evil demons were responsible for causing chaos during the Republic of China period. Someone calculated that the number of unnatural deaths during the Republic of China period was approximately 200 million. I'm afraid that tens of millions of them were caused by these evil demons."

"And the owner of Pawnshop No. 8 is probably some kind of evil demon with magical powers, who can fulfill other people's wishes through some kind of exchange."

"The Philosopher's Stone?" When Zhang Chulan heard Lu Jin's words, the first thing he thought of was the Philosopher's Stone.

Hearing about the Philosopher's Stone, Lu Jin became curious.

"Why, does this Philosopher's Stone have a similar function?"

Zhang Chulan nodded.

"Yes, the Philosopher's Stone is all about equal exchange."

"If I hadn't known that the Philosopher's Stone had once been obtained by the owner of this notebook, I would have thought that the owner of Pawnshop No. 8 was the Philosopher's Stone transformed into a spirit."

“The greater the desire to accomplish something, the greater the price to pay.”

"It seems that this so-called Pawnshop No. 8 owner is actually a different kind of living Sage Stone Monster."

After hearing Zhang Chulan's explanation, Lu Jin nodded.

"Well, you're quite right."

"In fact, many things ultimately end up in the same place, so it's normal for people or things to have similar abilities."

"But I've never heard of the ferryman mentioned in the notes. No other sects call themselves ferrymen either. But judging by what he said in the notes, he seems to be from a righteous sect. I wonder if he's from some hidden sect."
