The Trick of Longevity, Paper-cutting Becomes a Spirit

Chapter 239 Fantasy of the Red Moon
Yes.

Death does not mean the end, but the beginning of a new cycle.

At least, that's how it is for this world.

Understanding this, although Lu Qian does not agree with the practices of the Moon Worship Cult, at least the logic of his behavior is reasonable.

The Lunar Worship Sect is not a sect that exists for mankind. They are preparing to become the overlord of the "new world" after the demise of mankind.

However, when ordinary people hear their teachings for the first time, they are a bit shocking.

This may be the reason why they are not tolerated by the imperial court or the Jianghu, and are surrounded and killed by both parties.

Unexpectedly, Lu Qian thought of a past event.

Lu Qian still can't figure out whether it was his dream or what really happened.

That night, Lu Qian and Zuo Qiuling went out to look for medicinal materials.

Lu sneaked into a small wooden house and saw the bodies of an old man and a little girl.

This old man is suspected of killing his own granddaughter.

At that time, he also said some inexplicable words to him:
"It's better to die late... than to die early."

"Since it is doomed to destruction, it is better to join early than to struggle to the death."

……

The old man's words are very similar to the views of the Moon Worship Cult.

While Lu Qian was reminiscing, Wang Zirong suddenly asked, "When will the red moon come?"

Kui Subai glanced at Wang Zirong, but did not treat her with disdain like he did with Zuo Qiuling. Instead, he replied: "If it's the end of the year soon, or after the new year if it's late."

Hearing these words, everyone including Lu Qian was shocked at the same time.

Wang Zirong said in a daze: "You are talking about...this year?"

Kui Subai nodded, and then said to Lu Qian: "So I say, what you just said is no longer valid."

Wang Zirong murmured: "In other words, there are only three to five months left..."

Lu Qian looked back and found that Wang Zirong was in a very bad state at this time, looking sluggish, as if he was completely taken in by Kui Subai's words.

"Three or five months..."

Wang Zirong murmured and repeated that sentence, and then her eyes suddenly opened and asked: "So, what does the red moon coming again mean?"

Kui Subai said mockingly: "Why, you have to ask, does that represent the beginning or the end?"

After hearing Kui Subai's words, Wang Zirong's face instantly darkened.

Obviously, she seemed to know what the red moon coming again meant.Did you get the answer from Kui Subai's tone?

Lu Qian frowned and said, "What riddles are you playing?"

Kui Subai said: "It's not a riddle, it's just that you don't know. Some people are still lucky, thinking that the coming of the red moon may end the current chaos of the world, clear out the ghosts, and reshape the world. Order, restart the beginning of a new round.

Therefore, they are eager to figure out one thing:
The red moon comes again, whether it represents the beginning or the end. "

At this point, Kui Subai said in a mocking tone: "Childish thoughts are in vain."

Hearing this, Lu Qian understood what she meant by "beginning".

First of all, after the red moon arrives, it will sweep away the ghosts and restart reincarnation for them, thus reshaping the order of the world.

Lu Qian asked: "So... what does the end mean?"

Kui Subai said coldly: "After the red moon returns, all the Yin ghosts in the world can absorb the strongest Yin moon essence, and their strength will skyrocket in a short period of time..."

Lu Qian felt a thump in his heart and said, "By then, humans will no longer be Yin Gui's opponent."

Kui Subai sneered and said: "Opponent? By then, the ghost kings will be everywhere and destroy humans without any effort."

After a pause, Kui Subai continued: "So...do you understand what I mean?"

Lu Qian nodded and said in a deep voice, "That is to say, if I don't enter the ghost realm, I won't be able to absorb the essence of Yin and Moon, and thus I will lose this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to increase my strength."

Kui Subai said: "Yes. Moreover, you will become the food of the ghosts and become their slaves after death. And we -"

Kui Subai suddenly raised his head and said proudly: "I will become the overlord of the new world after the red moon."

Hearing Kui Subai's impassioned words, Lu Qian suddenly laughed.

He chuckled and said, "So, you are going to give me a huge benefit?"

Kui Subai said without hesitation: "Of course." Lu Qian asked: "Why? In this world, there is probably no gift without reason."

After hearing Lu Qian's words, Kui Su, who had been silent until now, suddenly said: "Of course it's not for no reason.

Paper-cutting is a very ancient technique. No one knows its origin, and no one has ever practiced it, so it is very mysterious.Therefore, we are also curious, what will happen after mastering this paper-cutting technique? "

Lu Qian looked at Kui Su and said, "Are you sure that I can continue to practice paper-cutting after I practice the ghost way?"

Kui Su shook his head and said, "You are the successor of the paper-cutting technique. Only you can answer this question for you."

The successor of paper cutting?

Lu Qian suddenly thought that this paper-cutting technique did not have secrets or practice techniques like other techniques.

In fact, after he accidentally obtained paper cutting, he has been relying on paper cutting to upgrade.After each upgrade, get new paper spirits.

Lu Qian had wondered about this issue before.

How did he learn the paper-cutting technique without the exercises?
In the end, he could only attribute the reason to the mysterious scroll in his mind.

After hearing Kui Su's words, Lu Qian suddenly realized that this was not the case.

This paper-cutting technique was far more mysterious and weird than he imagined.

Lu Qian wanted to get an answer from Kuisu:
Does this paper-cutting technique have any skills?

Are the new paper spirits that appear set in the original "skill"?
It's a pity that he can't ask this question.

If his paper-cutting technique itself does not originate from the mysterious scroll, but from his own inheritance.So on what basis is it “inherited”?

blood?
Lu Qian felt an inexplicable feeling of uneasiness and fear in his heart.

It's the fear of the unknown.

Lu Qian carefully recalled how he obtained the paper-cutting technique.

That day, he was just an ordinary time-traveler with no abilities and was still worried about being hungry.

He cuts paper like a normal handicraft.

Because of his spirit - perhaps because his spirit was too focused, he suddenly awakened to the art of paper-cutting.

Then, as long as he cuts paper with concentration, the level of paper-cutting skill will improve little by little.

When the paper-cutting skill reaches the first level, five kinds of paper spirits will appear in the mysterious scroll.

Lu Qian suddenly thought, if he didn't have the mysterious scroll, would he still be able to awaken the paper-cutting skill?

The original father, Lu Daoxian, obviously did not have a mysterious scroll.

But he has a god, a paper bride, a moon-cutting gate, and a faceless boy.

His paper spirit is exactly the same as his paper spirit, both in appearance and function.

If we say that Lu Daoxian's paper-cutting skills and those paper spirits were passed down from his father, Lu Qian's grandfather.

Then he should know how many levels there are in this paper-cutting technique and what the paper spirits behind it are.

Lu Qian closed his eyes and recalled it carefully.

Lu Daoxian, I’m afraid he doesn’t know this!

Kui Subai's cold voice suddenly interrupted Lu Qian's thoughts:

"I can responsibly tell you that no one in this world understands the red moon better than us. Don't have any illusions about the red moon.

What should be said, I have already told you.For the rest, it's up to you to make a choice.

Join us, or turn your back on us?
You only have this one chance to choose! "

Lu Qian suddenly opened his eyes.

Before he could speak, Wang Zirong behind him suddenly shouted: "Lu Qian——"

Lu Qian glanced sideways and saw Wang Zirong, who looked lost.

Her face was full of anxiety; but there was clearly a hint of determination in her eyes.

That is a hope.

She hoped that Lu Qian would agree.
