Strange World Survival Manual

Chapter 169 Longquan Sword on the Tongue

Huang Bao reluctantly gave the five human souls to Li Gui. His eyes were bloodshot and his face was red. Just like Li Gui, he already looked like a gambler.

"It's my turn." Li Si looked at the two of them.

The two nodded slightly, looking at him with red eyes, waiting for him to ask the question.

Seeing the two people looking at him, Li Si smiled slightly: "Guess what my identity was when I was alive?"

After hearing Li Si's words, one demon and one ghost fell into thinking.

"I guess you were a bandit when you were alive." After a while, Li Gui chuckled. This man had said before that he had killed people, so he was most likely a bandit.

He is an old gambler. Since he knows that the greatest possibility is this, he will not let it go. After all, the benefits outweigh the risks.

There was a look of regret in Huang Bao's eyes. He wanted to guess this possibility just now, but he hesitated in the end.

"Wrong." Li Si laughed. In fact, when he used the ghost mirror to test before, he said that he had killed people just to give them preconceptions.

After all, who could have guessed that he, a scholar, would actually commit murder?

Of course, there are risks involved. If they guess correctly, he will not have five human souls for them, and he happens to not have five human souls.

But this risk is extremely low. If Li Sil didn't even dare to take this risk, he wouldn't have to deal with this monster. Wouldn't it be comfortable to just go home and sleep?

After all, there is nothing in this world that can get huge rewards without taking risks. If there is, then it is a trick played by scammers.

Then Li Si tested it in front of the mirror, and a red light flashed away.

Seeing the red light, Li Gui suddenly showed an unlucky look on his face. He searched the soul bag in his hand and threw a screaming human soul directly to Li Si.

Seeing the human soul, Li Si smiled. The soul bag rotated in the air and took the human soul into it.

"I guess you were once an officer and soldier!" Huang Bao immediately shouted at this time.

There was a cunning look in his eyes. Since this person was not a bandit, the possibility of him being an officer or soldier was very high.

In this world, he thinks the most murderers are officers, soldiers and bandits.

Seeing him rushing to answer, Li Gui's face looked a little unhappy. He had just thought of this possibility, but who knew that Huang Bao was so eager to answer.

"Wrong." Li Si smiled, then faced the mirror: "I am an officer and soldier."

A red light flashed across the mirror.

Seeing the red light, Huang Bao's face didn't look very good, while Li Gui on the side showed a look of gloating.

"By the way, I have not only killed people, I have also killed hundreds of people." Li Si said to the two of them with a smile.

At the same time, a green light flashed in the mirror.

Seeing the green light in the mirror, the two of them showed joy in their eyes. They didn't expect that this man would reveal the clues himself, and he simply didn't take them seriously.

"merchant?"

"wrong."

"The landlord is powerful?"

"wrong."

"It's the executioner!"

"wrong."

"Is it an official?"

"wrong."

"It must be a knight-errant!"

"wrong."

"Ordinary people?"

"wrong."

"..."

Huang Bao and Li Gui guessed four times in succession, one demon and one ghost, but none of them got it right.

In this way, Li Si gained eight human souls, plus the previous four, making a total of twelve human souls.

Huang Bao, on the other hand, lost eight human souls in total. His face was even redder than that of Li Gui, and he was already getting angry from gambling.

Compared to Huang Bao, Li Gui was okay. He only lost four human souls, so naturally he wouldn't be as angry as Huang Bao.

"Then what was your identity when you were alive?" Huang Bao stared at Li Si angrily.

At the same time, Li Gui also looked at Li Si with a curious look in his eyes. He didn't expect that the two of them had guessed so many identities and yet they hadn't figured it out yet.

This also made him a little interested in Li Si's identity during his lifetime.

At this time, Li Si saw that the heat was almost over, and he was not ready to show off, so he smiled and said, "Actually, I am a scholar."

Upon hearing Li Si's words, both Huang Bao and Li Gui looked surprised. They didn't expect that this man was still a scholar. Can a scholar kill so many people now?

"How is it possible? I have never seen a scholar kill so many people." Huang Bao looked at Li Si in disbelief.

Li Gui also turned to look at Li Si, waiting for Li Si's reply.

Seeing the two people looking at him, Li Si smiled and faced the mirror: "I am a scholar."

The blue light in the mirror flashed past.

When the demon and the ghost saw the green light, their eyes showed incredulity. They didn't expect that what this man said was true.

Li Si looked at the two of them with a sly smile on his face: "A scholar is much better at killing people than an executioner. As the saying goes, there is a Longquan sword on the tongue, killing people without blood. Although I am a scholar, I am good at stirring up trouble and destroying people's innocence. .”

"An ancient saying goes: Don't listen to right and wrong, and don't trust what you hear. The emperor will be killed if he hears it, his ministers will be killed, the father will be punished if he hears it, the husband and wife will be separated, the relatives will be alienated, and the neighbors will be ignored."

"And I." Li Si looked at the ghost and the demon and smiled: "I am just such a villain."

After hearing what Li Si said, both the demon and the ghost thought it was wonderful, and they felt that they had learned something.

"Haha, hearing this today is better than ten years of reading." Li Gui laughed.

"I will try it someday." Huang Bao was also thoughtful. He originally liked these treacherous things, but now after hearing what Li Si said, he felt as if he had found a treasure, even if he lost the spirit of a human soul. It's also gone a bit.

Naturally, they were not wary of Li Si. After all, he was just a fierce ghost. He couldn't raise any wolves here, he was just a small character who could be killed with a flip of his hand.

And since Li Si said it so bluntly, they didn't believe that this little devil dared to set them up.

"It's not fun to gamble like this. What's the point of having one human soul after another?" Huang Bao was a little impatient. He had already lost eight human souls before. Naturally, he wanted to win them back quickly. Let him win them back one by one. Some see no hope.

After hearing Huang Bao's words, Li Gui also showed an emotional expression and looked at Li Si.

He had won once before, so he was naturally confident of winning again, and the stakes were indeed too small now, which made him feel less relaxed.

"I think it's okay." Li Si laughed. Since the fish has been caught in the net, how could he not accept it? The bigger the bet, the more advantageous it would be for him.

"Listen to the Slanderous Poems" Don't listen to slanderous words, as the consequences of listening will be disastrous: if a king listens to his ministers, he will be punished, if a father listens to his son, he will be punished, if a husband and wife listens to his words, he will be separated, if his brothers are separated, if his friends are ignored, his relatives will be separated. With a majestic body of seven feet, don't listen to a three-inch tongue. There is a dragon spring on the tongue, and you can kill people without seeing blood!

I quoted it when I was writing. There were some changes, and there may be some misinterpretation of the meaning. I will post the original text now.

The whole poem is meant to warn people not to listen to slander, and also wishes everyone to stay away from villains in life.
