Chapter 235: Risky Move
Yu Zi Qian's corpse had been lying here for a long time.
Ever since he died at the hands of Feng Yushu two months ago, he had been lying here, neglected, with no one coming to look for him. Even Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe had deliberately ignored his existence, but today, he had no choice but to let this long-deceased dead man see the light of day again.
"Fen Wu deleted the Thought Steel Seal about me being the Unspeakable God from the minds of those prisoners in the prison. My progress in mastering 'God' was reset by him."
Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe stood in front of the ice cabinet, silently untying the red rope of this string of copper coins:
"Going to the city now to find people affected by the Thought Steel Seal and then stealing identities from scratch is already too late. Now I can only take a risky move and find another way."
Let's review Taiyi's rules:
When A mistakes Taiyi for B, whom A knows, Taiyi can use A's mistaken cognition as a medium to steal the identity of "B in A's cognition."
The more people who know B mistake Taiyi for B, the more complete the identity of B that Taiyi steals. When it reaches a certain degree of completeness, it can even deceive the rules, letting B take the price for violating the rules for oneself.
This is Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe's idea for mastering the Unspeakable God.
However, the path of stealing identities is not without shortcuts.
Suppose A is B's biological brother, the two grew up together, have a very good relationship, talk about everything, and A is the person who knows B best besides B himself, then...
Even if only stealing B in A's cognition, one can obtain a very close-to-complete, sufficiently realistic identity of B.
Then who is the person in the world who knows the "Unspeakable God" best?
It is the Gridder who once mastered Him, Yu Zi Qian.
"Please, God of Wealth, appear."
Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe threw out a copper coin, which landed on the ice cabinet with a "ding." At the same time, he turned into a woman wearing a red hoodie, Wang Jingli.
The decaying old man carrying a head appeared quietly in the cold storage, his Confucian robe wide, his blood pale, and the lightning-struck wood plague god on his chest pitch-black as ink.
Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe pointed to Yu Zi Qian in the ice cabinet and said: "I am buying his life."
The head held in the God of Wealth's hand shook.
"Hmm?" Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe's brows furrowed slightly.
Wang Jingli is an ordinary mortal who has never bought a life from the God of Wealth. The price for a new customer's first life purchase should be 1 copper coin.
Pondering for a moment, Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe understood: "Yu Zi Qian has bought a life here before."
The God of Wealth is a profiteer who raises prices on the spot and doesn't easily give customers a chance to exploit loopholes.
Suppose there are two customers, A and B, where A is an old customer who has bought a life once, and B is a new customer who has never bought a life. Then after A dies, B brings A's corpse to buy a life for him. The price of buying a life is calculated according to A's price, 2 copper coins for 1 life, not 1 copper coin for 1 life like B, the new customer.
The God of Wealth won't give customers a chance to exploit low-price loopholes.
"Yu Zi Qian was driven to a dead end by the erosion of Yeyao's defects, and after having no other way, he took a risk and found Fen Wu, buying 'Special' from him. In other words, he may have bought at most 5 lives from the God of Wealth here." Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe had the answer in his heart.
The God of Wealth will raise prices on the spot, and the price of each life purchase is the square of the previous one:
1, 2, 4, 16, 256, 65536...
Ordinary Gridders cannot afford to buy after the 5th life; the subsequent prices are too high to bear.
If Yu Zi Qian really bought 5 lives from the God of Wealth, Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe now needs to pay 65536 copper coins to resurrect him.
"Tsk." Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe shook his head. Let's treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor.
He untied the red rope, counted out 256 copper coins from the string, placed them above the ice cabinet, and said: "I am buying his life, is this enough?"
The God of Wealth didn't speak. The copper coins on the ice cabinet rolled to the ground with a "ding-ding-dang-dang," all entering His purse.
"Still okay, still okay..." Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems Yu Zi Qian didn't buy the 5th life before he died. Perhaps collecting 256 copper coins was still a bit difficult for him. After receiving the money, the God of Wealth's corpse faded slowly and silently until it completely disappeared. In the cold storage, only Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe remained. In the ice cabinet, those eyes that had been tightly closed for two months opened.
"Where... is this?"
The cold air wrapped around his body, making Yu Zi Qian's body, which had just regained vitality, shiver. Blood flowed in his arteries, slow as a turtle crawling. Above his head was a pure white ceiling, as white as the snow that never melts on the ice field all year round, bone-chillingly cold.
Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe leaned over, showing his face, a youth with a bit of scholarly air, in front of him.
"Good morning, Yu Zi Qian."
"You!"
Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe! It's him!
Yu Zi Qian's eyes widened, subconsciously wanting to use Yeyao's rules to kill him at close range, but the next moment he realized sharply that Yeyao... was gone.
The two evil ghosts he mastered had already left his body. Now he was just an ordinary mortal at the mercy of a Gridder.
"It's you, you resurrected me?" Yu Zi Qian gritted his teeth.
"You should thank me, shouldn't you?" Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe smiled.

Yu Zi Qian didn't speak, because to some extent, this guy was actually right...
Narrowing his eyes, Yu Zi Qian silently recalled his last memory before death. He remembered that he had let his shadow leave his body and sneak into the hospital, waiting for an opportunity to hunt and kill Bai Zhi and Feng Yushu and others inside, and then...
And then he was killed by Feng Yushu, who mastered the Special.
Using the Special's rules to kill Yeyao can reverse-trigger Yeyao's rules. In other words, after he died, Yeyao should have been mastered by that woman. But... Him?
Where did "He" go?
While dazed, Yu Zi Qian saw Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe holding a mobile phone, seemingly on a call with someone. A delicate, soft voice came from the speaker, making his eyes widen immediately.
"Yu Zi Qian, when are you coming back? I miss you so much..."
"You!" Yu Zi Qian suddenly rose up.
Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe placed a hand over His mouth, covering all of Yu Zi Qian's subsequent words.
"Yu Zi Qian? What's that noise on your end?" The voice on the other end of the phone was somewhat puzzled.
"Nothing, just walking and looking at my phone, didn't look at the road, accidentally bumped into someone." Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe said with a smile, holding an index finger to his lips, making a "shh" gesture.
"Then you must pay attention to safety. Many drivers on the road now have road rage. If you accidentally get into a car accident, my sister and I wouldn't know what to do..."
Listening to the gentle concern coming from the speaker, Yu Zi Qian's eyes flickered. Perhaps he already knew where "He" had gone.
"You mastered Him?" Yu Zi Qian asked through gritted teeth.
"If that's what you think." Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe hung up the phone, reached out and pulled Yu Zi Qian out of the ice cabinet, saying: "Don't be so nervous, you are just a mortal now, you have no threat to me, so I don't need to kill you."
Yu Zi Qian leaned on the ice cabinet and stood on the ground, his legs shivering from the cold, and asked: "Then why did you resurrect me?"
Mortals have no threat to Gridders, and at the same time, they have no use.
"Of course because you are useful to me." Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe said faintly: "I have some grudges with Fen Wu. He wants to kill me, and I want to kill him. Unfortunately, this guy is a dragon who sees the head but not the tail. It's very difficult to collect information about him."
Yu Zi Qian understood what he meant: "You want me to reveal Fen Wu's information to you."
Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe nodded: "That's right."
Saying this, Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe took a set of clothes from his bag and handed them to Yu Zi Qian, saying: "Go change your clothes. Wearing a body bag and going out is a bit eye-catching. There is a changing room here. Let's talk in detail after going out."
Yu Zi Qian took the clothes and looked at him deeply, then turned and walked toward the changing room.
