The Infinitely Fusion of Everyday World

The ghost was dead, undoubtedly dead.

He faked his death and returned to his teammates, which was not without cost. So this time, with his speed restricted, he couldn't hold on.

Even when he used Boss Wan's attack to kill the unconscious Mu Lan halfway through the fight, allowing Li Yiting to successfully switch to the identity of Ai Tu and refresh her status, he still could not escape the fate of death.

Even when Ghost Shadow was fighting with Boss Wan, he mainly dodged. When he had to take on the enemy, he had to use up a lot of shadow energy to defend himself, not to mention Li Yiting, who was even weaker. You have to know that her current strength as a single identity is about the same as Wang Sanqiang in the previous world. The reason why she was able to kill so many people was entirely due to her prior weakening, fearlessness and surprise attacks.

Therefore, the resurrected Li Yiting suffered considerable damage after being targeted by Boss Wan only twice.

Facing the powerful Wan Lei and the imperiled ghost, Li Yiting hesitated. And Boss Wan also responded to her hesitation and said, "I also have teammates."

Then Li Yiting turned around and ran without hesitation, leaving behind only a desperate shadow.

Not long after that, the ghost was quickly destroyed by the poisonous insect of Lin Jie who arrived and the actions of Boss Wan who accelerated his attack.

Boss Wan picked up the killing key of the ghost and did not chase after Li Yiting who had just run away. He had more important things to do, and Li Yiting who had lost the killing key was not worth chasing after.

Even though the sorcerer sent out poisonous insects, and the ghost seemed to have some curse triggered in his body when he was about to die, it was still Boss Wan who killed the ghost.

He contacted Li Wen, who had been staring at the witch in mid-air, and confirmed that the witch was still within his range. Boss Wan walked to the bench in the small park and sat on it without even noticing that it was dirty and worn. He looked up at the sparse stars in the sky, as if he was distracted.

"Okay, now we have all the keys."

The sorcerer clapped his hands, stretched, and said happily.

Even for Qu Ning and the sorcerer, plus a group of poisonous insects, it still took more than ten minutes to find the killing keys.

The condition of the deal between Qu Ning and the sorcerer was that she would help Qu Ning obtain six killing keys. Cursing the killing keys carried by the ghost was already considered assistance, so even if the spoils were divided afterwards, it would not be a big deal to help Qu Ning find six keys. However, Lin Jie did not do so. Instead, she helped Qu Ning find six keys first, and the rest depended on their own abilities.

In the end, Qu Ning obtained seven killing keys, but Qu Ning himself only found three keys in total. Most of them were discovered by the sorcerer and her poisonous insects.

Qu Ning was already very satisfied with the harvest, but he couldn't leave now. He had to stay with them until midnight.

When discussing the plan of hunting ghosts with the sorcerer, the sorcerer suggested joining forces with Boss Wan, and this task was naturally given to Qu Ning.

Qu Ning went directly to where Boss Wan had been staying and talked with him for a long time. Finally, Boss Wan, who had a big grudge with Guiying, agreed to the deal of joining forces.

What Boss Wan got was a possible chance to kill the ghost, the convenience of getting close to the witch master, and no worries about fighting the witch master. But he might also be too seriously injured by the ghost, which would affect the battle with the witch master.

Qu Ning received the reward from Lin Jie and the possibility of living a peaceful life for the next day. But at the same time, he also had to ensure that the two groups of witches and Wan Lao Da did not get too close before midnight, at least not let them fight.

What Lin Jie got was the opportunity to easily pay Qu Ning and get the remaining dropped keys, a chance to kill the ghost, and no worries about fighting with Boss Wan. But she also lost the distance between herself and Boss Wan and had to contact him again.

Despite all the inconveniences, it was generally beneficial to all parties, killing three birds with one stone. So the ghost, as the victim, could only face inevitable death.

Qu Ning took out a small stool from the storage space and sat on it. In order to prevent insects and ants from crawling on him, he used his inner strength to protect his body before leaning against the tree, looking absent-minded.

Lin Jie waited for the swarm of insects looking for the key to fly back into the cloak, then took off the cloak, revealing his petite body wrapped in bandages.

Not minding Qu Ning's presence at all, Lin Jie began to untie the straps one by one.

Qu Ning saw this scene out of the corner of his eye, and it took him a while to react. He was about to get up and look for Boss Wan. Anyway, as long as they didn't fight before midnight, it didn't matter where he went, but Lin Jie stopped Qu Ning: "You don't have to leave. I don't have anything sexy inside."

As he spoke, Lin Jie chuckled twice. Qu Ning turned around in confusion and took another look, only to discover something unusual.

Lin Jie had already removed some of the bandages, revealing some skin underneath. Unlike her exposed face, neck, arms, and other parts, which were fair and delicate, the skin underneath the bandages was actually wrinkled and black.

As she removed more and more straps, the revealed scene became more and more horrifying.

There was no skin or muscle below Lin Jie's collarbone and above his navel! That part was completely missing, with only a thin layer of hazy black mist, revealing his internal organs.

No, they were no longer normal internal organs. The returning Gu worms had landed on those organs and then disappeared. From time to time, another Gu worm would appear on the organs, crawling and gnawing at something.

Lin Jie smiled bitterly, pointed to the location of the Gu worm's organ, and said calmly: "Five Elements Gu worm."

"The heart belongs to fire, the liver belongs to wood, the lungs belong to metal, the spleen belongs to earth, and the kidneys belong to water. The location of the five internal organs has become a nest of insects."

"Humans have five internal organs that transform into five kinds of qi, which give rise to joy, anger, worry, thought, and fear. The heart is joy, the liver is anger, the lungs are worry, the spleen is thought, and the kidneys are fear. Only by using joy, anger, worry, thought, and fear as food can such an existence be born."

Qu Ning was stunned when he heard this. He couldn't help but glance at Lin Jie's shocking body. He hesitated for a moment and asked, "Then what is the method of raising poisonous insects that you taught Tanaka Jiro...?"

Lin Jie was quite surprised to hear Qu Ning's question. He had never expected him to ask this question. He raised his eyebrows and said, "What I taught him was naturally an ordinary Gu worm, which only needs blood to feed."

As he spoke, Lin Jie smiled, clicked his tongue a few times, shook his head and said, "I now believe that you are a good person."

She had previously asked the bar owner Tanaka Jiro about the relationship between Qu Ning and the two girls, Ikutame Chizu and Kiritani Tsukasa, and learned that Qu Ning had saved their lives.

Although she didn't ask for the details, Lin Jie only thought that Qu Ning was rescued because he triggered some mission, and she didn't comment on the conclusion that Qu Ning was a good person. But now she is somewhat convinced that Qu Ning is indeed a good person.

Qu Ning didn't quite understand what the sorcerer meant, but he didn't ask too much. He sat back in his original place and became dazed again.
