You said you would ascend to the immortal world, why did you end up in a mental hospital?.

Chapter 5 Everyone Goes Crazy Together

You know what, this claw is completely black with only some bright silver lines dotted on it, it looks quite handsome.

As he watched, a noun appeared in Li Shouling's mind.

Dichotomy.

Also called shared psychosis.

Usually occurs in one person or a group of people.

These individuals were associated with a patient with a pronounced delusional disorder.

The socially dominant member of the relationship suffers from a primary disorder.

Imposing their fantasies on the less dominant member or members of the relationship or convincing them to believe unusual beliefs.

To put it simply, when one person gets sick, a group of people will follow suit.

A group of people believe whatever that person says.

This is the situation now. Sixth Senior Brother said this is a magic weapon, and then he believed it.

Although logically he felt that it was impossible for him to believe in such an outrageous middle school play.

But the handsome claw gloves on his hands proved that he must have believed it from the bottom of his heart.

This contradictory feeling made Li Shouling suck his teeth.

Seeing him like this, Ren Zaishan realized that he had obviously misunderstood again.

He patted Li Shouling on the shoulder and began to persuade him earnestly.

"Although the fairyland is great, the mortal world is the foundation for you now."

"Don't think about those things. Come, let's see how your strength has improved first."

Li Shouling:?

"Master, I haven't practiced at all, so how can my strength improve?"

Ren Zaishan stroked his beard, looking mysterious.

"But you have eaten in the fairyland. That is fairy food, which will be fed back to your body through your soul."

Li Shouling was too lazy to complain and just started running.

The next moment I sighed in my heart.

It's really a dichotomy...

Yes, he has become stronger.

His cultivation is now three times stronger than before.

"Very good, disciple, you are very talented. A meal of immortal food is three times stronger."

"This way you can go up three times and be nine times stronger than when you started."

"The fourth time you go up, you'll be nine times stronger and three times stronger!"

"In this way, your cultivation will soon catch up with your fellow brothers!"

Li Shouling's expression suddenly looked a little strange.

The words that Ren Zaishan had used to scold the deformed man suddenly echoed in Li Shouling's mind.

"If you do that again, I'll throw you like this nine times!"

Could it be that... this Ren Zaishan...

You can only count to nine, right?

He didn't dare ask more questions.

Just as the immortal power was about to stop, Ren Zaishan asked him to continue.

It lasted for about three minutes before the whirlpool stopped.

"Well, your endurance is pretty good. You can last that long after three cycles of the Immortal Power Swirl. The only other person who can last that long is Mingji."

"Since you have the magic weapon given by your senior brother and you are proficient in the immortal energy vortex, let's go and do good deeds tomorrow."

"Come on, I'll take you to the cave."

Li Shouling felt as if he had heard something wrong.

"Do good deeds?"

He repeated doubtfully.

Ren Zaishan nodded.

"Yes, do good deeds."

"One of the main ways we practice cultivation is to accumulate virtue and do good deeds."

"You can gain merit by doing things that benefit the living beings of heaven and earth."

"By receiving offerings from others, you can gain incense."

"Merit and incense can both enhance your immortal power."

"Oh, yes, there is also immortal food, which can also increase immortal power."

These words made Li Shouling feel the absurdity of "eating in jail can make you stronger".

After all, the "fairyland" is a combination of a prison and a mental hospital.

Well, he is indeed a mental patient.

It's all crazy anyway, so it's the same if I accompany you in your crazy behavior.

Li Shouling thought about this and asked a question.

"How do you do good deeds? Find a place to hide, and then help those who are in trouble when you see them?"

Ren Zaishan shook his head. "No."

"There's been a plague recently, so Zhangjia Village is planning to hold a rat ghost wedding."

Li Shouling was a little confused.

"What is Rat Yin Marriage?"

"The Rat Ghost Marriage is to hold a ghost marriage for the Rat Fairy, so that it will marry a woman and stop spreading plague in this area."

I was just about to complain about feudal superstition.

But if I think about it carefully, if it happened in this place, it doesn’t necessarily mean it’s feudal superstition…

After explaining, he continued, "But, there is a risk with the Rat Yin Marriage."

"It's just that the Rat Immortal may not look down on women who hold ghost marriages."

"Then she would be a rat-waist, a kind of filth."

"Filthy?" A word that Li Shouling didn't understand appeared again, and he repeated it subconsciously.

"Filth, evil, weird things, they are all the same. It depends on what you call them. Anyway, they are not human beings."

"It looks like a big rat with a human face, so it's easy to recognize."

"Zhangjia Village is under the jurisdiction of Zhongliang County. This commission was entrusted to me personally by the county magistrate of Zhongliang County."

"The county chief gave us money, and we received incense from the villagers who were grateful to us. Apart from being dirty, we also had merit."

"It's a win-win situation~"

It’s really a win-win-win situation, we won three times.

Then he thought of a question.

"But Master, I don't know Zhangjia Village."

When they arrived at the place, Ren Zaishan lifted a curtain and motioned Li Shouling to go in.

"So I asked the third brother, your senior brother Shengyao, to accompany you."

After saying that, he left, leaving Li Shouling alone in the cave.

There is only a futon and a straw mat on the ground.

There is a torch on the wall. It is not burning but is glowing. I don't know why.

If it were in the real world, it would most likely be a radioactive substance.

But here, Li Shouling guessed that it should be a wall lamp.

After walking for a while, it seemed that my spiritual power had recovered a little.

Started it again and tried to move it.

Jumping power, speed, and strength have all increased by about three times.

With his height, he could reach the top of the cave, which was more than three meters high, with just one jump.

Then he tried to scrape the stone wall with his claws.

It's very easy to leave a few traces.

This reminded Li Shouling of the saber-toothed tiger in Forked Man.

Although I knew it was a disease, the feeling was still very novel.

He suddenly understood why so many people were willing to follow Ren Zaishan in his craziness.

At night, Li Shouling was lying on a straw mat when a question suddenly occurred to him.

Where was he actually lying?
Could it be on the ground?
Wouldn’t that mean I’d catch a cold?
With this thought in mind, Li Shouling closed his eyes and fell asleep.

the next day.

He changed into the black Taoist robe prepared by his master and walked out.

Ren is in the cave in the mountain.

"Third brother, I'm leaving Ziwei in your care this time. You have to keep an eye on him."

He spoke to the air around Li Shouling.

"I know...I know, Master."

A weak and soft voice came from Li Shouling.

Although he knew there were people there, Li Shouling was still frightened by the sudden voices in the empty place.

But having said that, this socially anxious voice is actually quite cute.

After answering, the two set off.

Although I couldn't see my senior brother's figure, I could see a row of footprints on the ground in front of me.

Except for the moment in the cave, the sunshine made Li Shouling in a good mood.
