Under the crushing strength of He Qianqing and Mu Yuan, the two evil cultivators in the foundation-building stage had no chance to resist. The mere pressure of the high-level cultivators was enough to frighten them to the point where their feet became weak and they had no choice but to be captured. . Yang Yuyao and Li Fengzhi didn't even need to take action. Yang Yuyao only had to take action to prevent the coercion from affecting Li Fengzhi, and they were completely treated like freeloaders.

"Master, what is the role of the poison poisoned by the numb powder?" When they took the two evil cultivators back for interrogation, Li Fengzhi asked through a message.

"One of the materials used to make living puppets, living puppet Gu, but I didn't know before that this stupor powder is made of zombie worms." Yang Yuyao replied.

"Master, didn't you know this before?" Li Fengzhi asked in surprise.

"Well, I'm actually not very interested in Gu, and I started to take advantage of it recently." Yang Yuyao answered frankly.

"But Master, you directly admitted that you didn't know before..." Li Fengzhi felt in a trance and found it incredible.

"Well, because I really didn't know before. Just because I didn't know, when I realized that I needed the knowledge that I lacked, I would make up for it. If I don't know but think I know Over time, I may have deceived myself into thinking that what I was making up was the truth." Yang Yuyao explained.

"But..." Li Fengzhi said hesitantly. He didn't know how to express the contradiction he saw in Yang Yuyao. Yang Yuyao, who was obviously nervous and frightened when looking at most people, could openly admit what he didn't know. But he also felt that what Yang Yuyao said was very reasonable. Sometimes he made up too much nonsense and he really believed it. But to admit that he didn't know, Li Fengzhi found it difficult to say.

"Would Fengzhi feel embarrassed to ask me questions?" Yang Yuyao suddenly asked through a voice message.

"Sometimes, I'm afraid you'll find me annoying." Li Fengzhi admitted.

"What about when you ask others questions? When you are embarrassed, are you afraid that others will find you annoying?" Yang Yuyao asked further.

"No, I'm afraid that others will laugh at me for not even understanding this." Li Fengzhi said in a voice message.

"But as human beings, unless it is an extremely special situation, it is impossible for you and me to know many things from birth. Other animals can still retain many instincts passed down from their ancestors, and they can be used smoothly with a little practice. But Many things in life are contrary to instinct and require us to have a long learning process. So it is normal to not understand new things when exposed to them." Yang Yuyao paused and then said.

"In the process of understanding, asking questions is actually a way to quickly obtain key information. Of course, you need to ask the right person, and you need to ask skillfully. But I personally think that the reason why you feel that you are afraid of being laughed at when you ask something , it may be that you don’t trust that person and feel that the other person will not tell you the correct answer but will tease you. In addition, you do not have such a strong desire to know this information.”

Yang Yuyao's words flashed through Li Fengzhi's mind like thunder. He suddenly recalled that he had asked almost everyone he met when searching for Yang Yuyao's traces, but he did not dare to walk into the inn and ask. How much does it cost to stay in Datongpu for one night?

He would comfort himself that he only needed a shelter from the wind and rain under a bridge or a roof to spend the night, and to find a stream to wash himself in. He didn't need to be so pretentious when he became a monk. It's not that he doesn't want to live in a warm and comfortable house, he just thinks that he can use other options instead. The value of saving money for travel expenses in his heart is higher than living comfortably.

He also didn't dare to trust other people casually, and he had an inferiority complex, especially when he went into the city. He felt that the people in the city would look down on him, ridicule him, tease him, deceive him and take pleasure in seeing him stupidly fall for it. He didn't believe that those wealthy passers-by would treat him sincerely. And this is not entirely his delusion of persecution, it is the fact.

People who can live in places with sect protection will look down on people in places without sect protection, and will think that those places are so bad that even monks will not look down upon them. City people will look down on people from their towns, calling them poor, vulgar country bumpkins. As for the way monks treat mortals, it goes without saying that many monks from sects who have never heard of them also look at people in a condescending manner.

Even though these do not represent everyone, Li Fengzhi does not want to test his poor self-esteem again and again. Although his life experience has now changed from a helpless orphan to the legitimate prince of the Emperor and Queen of Wei Wu, Li Fengzhi feels that his parents are so poor and disgusted that they would rather not know that this son is still alive. He doesn't have that temperament and vision.

"Master, why do so many people look different in front and back?" Li Fengzhi couldn't help but ask, thinking of the various faces of so many people he had seen along the way.

"Because work is work and life is life. Everyone has their own temper, but in specific environments and specific people, people will suppress or control their temper. This is what people do to live and get along with others. A choice that seeks advantages and avoids disadvantages. But long-term depression is very uncomfortable and can even cause people to get sick, so if there is a chance, people will be their true selves. But when they return to those specific situations, they will rein in their temper again. "

Yang Yuyao looked at the sky where it started to rain lightly again, and cast a spiritual barrier for Li Fengzhi to avoid the rain. He then took out the automatic umbrella he had modified from the space ring and held it firmly with spiritual power. He looked at He Qianqing and Mu Yuan who were flying ahead with two evil cultivators. His master and the others did not need him to worry about.

"Can you get sick? Can a monk also get sick?" Li Fengzhi felt incredible.

"I think so." Yang Yuyao replied. He felt that monks could not avoid diseases caused by intense emotions, but he had not encountered any examples. But even if he met him, he might not recognize him.

"Then... what is a living puppet?" Li Fengzhi asked around and then returned to the original topic. Of course, Yang Yuyao preferred that he ask about these relatively clear knowledge rather than discussing psychological and behavioral knowledge.

"Living puppet, as the name suggests, the body and mind of the person who has been poisoned will be completely controlled by the person who cast the poison and become a puppet to achieve their goals. These people who have been poisoned can live for a long time and are less likely to be noticed by the people around them, but If they don't understand the poison, they will still die slowly." Yang Yuyao replied.

"Are you controlling these people to murder the people around them?" Li Fengzhi suddenly felt a chill. He imagined what it would be like if there was a familiar person next to him, and he was still talking and laughing with him, but in fact he had already been killed. Control, ready to murder one's own life at any time, makes one's hair stand on end.

"Of course, otherwise those people wouldn't have put so much effort into poisoning this Gu." Yang Yuyao replied.

He felt that this kind of poison called Living Puppet Gu was not as scary as the Heart-Eating Gu used by Bai Lingxue. The actions of people who were poisoned by Living Puppet Gu were completely controlled by the person who had poisoned them. They themselves were like puppets. No longer able to make any unconditioned reflex reactions. Yang Yuyao once saw in a record about living puppet voodoo that a poisoner forgot to let the poisoned person eat, causing the poisoned person to starve and lose weight. Found a poison.

As for some other words, deeds, and little habits in life, people who know him will notice that they are different because they are different from himself. And if the victims of these living puppets are completely freed from the poison, they can return to their original appearance. But the Heart-Eating Gu is different. The victim of this Gu cannot be regarded as being manipulated, but the consciousness and thoughts of the victim have truly changed, desires are completely released, and what he does is what he planned to do. Even if the poison is removed, the person cannot change back.
