Chapter 278 A Simpler Method
"No, no! It shouldn't be like this!"
Ji Li was not panicking, he just slowly backed away, but he didn't dare to retreat quickly.
In his mind, he felt that things shouldn't develop like this. They were ordered to carry the coffin into here, and logically they shouldn't be exposed.
At least, they shouldn't be seen through so easily.
However, unlike Ji Li's performance, all the other shop assistants froze in their places after seeing this scene, and they had already shown signs of turning around and leaving.
Dong Yuan and Hong Fu were retreating backwards, and were already a few steps away from Ji Li.
"Don't leave! Stop!" Chang Nian frowned, turned her head suddenly and shouted in a low voice.
Now he absolutely couldn't leave. As long as he planned to retreat, the end result would be that the Black and White Impermanence would call countless Yinchao to chase him down like hell!
"What if I don't leave? Should I fight them head-on?" Dong Yuan held the noose tightly, ensuring that the coffin didn't leave her body, and barely stood still.
Yes...what else can I do if I don't leave?
Fighting hard, impossible.
That's the Black and White Impermanence, and humans can never kill ghosts. If they don't kill them, they will inevitably fall into a desperate situation where their identities are exposed.
"Besides running away and killing, is there a third option?"
This question is not only what Ji Li is thinking about, but also what the Fifth Branch is thinking about.
Li Congrong is only one step away from the Black and White Impermanence.
He felt a chill on the tip of his nose because the soul-calling banner was facing his face, but he didn't retreat at all.
The face that was weathered by the vicissitudes of life was full of seriousness at this moment. Facing such a strong pressure, he did not move at all, as steady as a mountain.
And the Fifth Branch was calmer than Ji Li.
The Black Impermanence's hand had reached the back of his waist, where there was a long horn pinned to the belt.
Obviously, this thing has the function of communication. If it blows the horn, I'm afraid that the store clerks will be dead.
The two powerful ghosts, whose combined strength is comparable to Meng Po, created a low-pressure atmosphere that made the hands of the people in the Fifth Branch cold when they faced each other coldly.
At this moment, Li Guanqi took the lead.
He did nothing, ignored the two ghosts in front of him, sat cross-legged, and once again took out a chessboard from his cloth bag.
This time, he grabbed a handful of white pieces from the chess pot and threw them randomly on the chessboard.
At the same time as the white pieces appeared, the hand of Hei Wuchang holding the horn paused for a moment.
Including the soul-calling flag that was only a fist away from Li Congrong's nose, which trembled for no reason.
This short time was almost negligible, but for the top clerk, it could do a lot of things.
For example, Qiu Xue suddenly threw out a handful of incense ash, and the strange thing was that these thrown incense ashes became invisible in the air.
At the same time when Shi Dalu saw Li Guanqi take action, he quickly pulled out an old-fashioned point-and-shoot camera from his arms.
Turning on the flash, he aimed at the black and white impermanence in front of him and took a photo with a click.
After the blazing white light dissipated, Shi Dalu tore the photo into pieces.
When doing these three steps, there was no verbal communication between the Fifth Branch, but the tacit understanding of the actions was extremely high.
Perhaps this is also the reason why they can stand firm in this hell of life and death.
Ji Li has been observing the actions of the Fifth Branch from the back. A large part of the reason why he did not leave was to see how Li Congrong would deal with this situation.
After all the strange behaviors were over, Ji Li was surprised to find that the Black and White Impermanence turned their heads and aimed their eyes at them.
This time, the soul-calling flag was aimed at Ji Li's position, as if they ignored the group of people from the Fifth Branch standing in front of them.
"The living, five people, death penalty!"
"Erase existence, erase memory..."
Ji Li understood that the method used by the Fifth Branch was to use some special sin objects to achieve the means of getting away with it.
Li Guanqi used his mind interference ability to cause the Black and White Impermanence to be dazed for a moment. The incense ash sprinkled by Qiu Xue should also have a similar auxiliary effect, and everything they did was to make Shi Dalu use the camera.
That camera should have the ability to erase memory and existence, but it shouldn't take long.
The fifth branch has bypassed the Black and White Impermanence and headed for the ten city gates, where there is a black hole vortex, which must be the way to the place of judgment.
But they didn't rush in, but turned around in unison, wanting to see what method the seventh branch would use.
The trouble returned to Ji Li, and the Black and White Impermanence pointed directly at Ji Li.
The fifth branch can use the sin object to get through, but the seventh branch can't.
"Could it be... using the script sin object!"
Chang Nian felt that there seemed to be no better solution to the problem, and the way the fifth branch handled it reminded her.
Perhaps using a script to fabricate a fact can also achieve the effect of muddling through.
But this idea was immediately rejected by Ji Li:
"There are only three opportunities to use it. The first time will most likely be used by the judge, the second time will be used to prepare for the battle with King Yama, and the third time will be used to leave. It cannot be used now."
"Then let me go! I will use the umbrella to forcibly hold them back, and you go in to listen to the judgment."
Yu Guo held his chest with his right hand and grabbed the umbrella handle on his waist with his left hand.
Panic was spreading, time was being wasted minute by minute. Dong Yuan and Hong Fu were shocked and frightened by Yu Guo's words.
Has the situation really reached the point where they have to use the lives of living people to buy time?
Ji Li's long hair was gently blown away by a breeze, revealing his fair face with a faint smile on his face:
"No need to sacrifice your life, no need to use the sin object, just wait for me to come back."
"Ji Li, you!" Yu Guo was anxious. He heard that Ji Li seemed to be moving and was very confident, but out of concern, he still wanted to stop him and asked for details.
But Chang Nian narrowed his eyes and held Yu Guo's arm.
"He will only do things he is sure of."
...
"Did you notice that when Shi Dalu pressed the shutter button and the flash came on, the pupils in the two pairs of eyes of the Black and White Impermanence disappeared for a moment!"
Why did Ji Li dare to move forward so boldly and face the Black and White Impermanence alone without the sin object? The main reason was this sentence from the third personality.
The third personality has a bug-like observation ability, which has saved Ji Li's life countless times, and this time it will also play a huge role.
Ji Li's steps towards the Black and White Impermanence are very steady and firm.
"I have always wondered why the two of them can see everyone's identity at a glance, but they never took action.
It has been a full half minute since they called out our identities.
The White Impermanence is bluffing, and the Black Impermanence is deliberately pretending. They both want to make a big deal, but they are quite tentative."
Ji Li caught the Black and White Impermanence's handle. Those two pairs of pupils are the source of seeing through the identities of the living and the dead, and after seeing through, they have another mind.
"What mind do you mean?"
As soon as the third personality finished speaking, in the shocked eyes of the ten people in the fifth and seventh branches.
Ji Li stood in front of the Black and White Impermanence, slowly stretched out his hand from his arms, and actually pulled out a thick stack of ghost money!
