He Became a Salted Fish After Inheriting Millions of Secret Arts

Swords come to the theater together.Even if someone laughed at him for carrying a sword on his back, even if he had to endure the troubles of The Sword in the Stone along the way, he should have brought that guy with him!

The fox shawl turned into a bolt of lightning and rushed straight at Duan Feizhuo's face.

At this moment, a gust of wind blew past Duan Feizhuo's ears and hit the fox's shawl.

It flew backwards, tumbling in the air for a long time before it managed to stabilize itself.

Yeats held the Staff of Civilization across his chest, like a magician holding a wand--for him, it was indeed a wand.

Duan Feizhuo took a deep breath of fresh air. "Thank you for your help."

"You need not show mercy to that woman," said the poet coldly, "she is no longer Madeleine Clearwater."

Duan Feizhuo looked at Yeats, then at Madeleine, his eyes shifted back and forth between the two.

"Isn't she John's sister?"

Yeats snorted through his nose, "After listening to what she just said, I already understand. She is not Miss Madeleine, but her godmother—Mrs. Boyle."

Duan Feizhuo looked at the girl with a sinister smile. "You mean, she used illusion to disguise herself as Miss Madeleine?"

"No." Yeats narrowed his eyes, showing an expression of disgust that Duan Feizhuo had never seen before, "She is a Ligeia—a corpse resurrected."

The name Ligeia sounded so familiar, Duan Feizhuo recalled it for a long time before he remembered where he had seen it.

It was in a novel - Edgar Allan Poe's short thriller Ligeia.

The novel told such a story that the hero's wife, Ligeia, was a beautiful, intelligent and perfect woman, but unfortunately died of illness.The hero who is obsessed with her and misses her buys a monastery and arranges a strange magic circle in it.Later, the actor took another step-wife.Although his second wife is innocent and lively, he only regards her as a substitute for Ligeia and dismisses her.Later, his second wife also died of illness. While guarding her body, the hero misses the beautiful Ligeia.At this moment, the body of the second wife stood up and took the form of Ligeia.

Throughout the ages, this story has been analyzed and deconstructed by countless literary critics.Some people say that Poe is expressing his fascination with death, and some people say that he wants to use the image of Ligeia to express his views on women.

But no one ever thought that that story, maybe, maybe, might—was a piece of documentary literature.

There really is such a thing as death and resurrection in the world.

In Duan Feizhuo's world, there is another name for this phenomenon - Duoshe.
