The memory crystallization was a purple crystal stone.
The same as the ones Zhou Heng had drawn earlier, it existed within his mind.
With just a thought, it could be summoned.
After closing the door behind him.
Zhou Heng began to read the information within it.
Immediately, a scene of light and shadow images flew in front of him, while containing all sorts of information such as sounds and words.
Since this was only a portion of Feng You's memory, the information was presented in a somewhat intermittent and incoherent form.
It wasn't until Zhou Heng finished reading most of the information contained in this memory crystallization that he could barely sort out some clear lines that could connect the jumbled and disconnected information together.
Fortunately, this part of the memory did contain some information about ghosts.
The ghosts of this world were not born from the souls or spirits of people after death as Zhou Heng had previously thought, but originally they were "Yin spirits" born from the natural yin and yang air.
Based on the law of the natural convergence of yin and yang, this kind of yin spirit would naturally desire to absorb yang energy and devour it.
This is instinctive.
It will never go away.
When they have completely devoured the first living person, they will have their own spirit and mind, and become a real ghost, with different special abilities and almost indestructible traits.
Generally speaking, however, ghosts in the "Yin Spirit" state cannot directly interfere with reality, and must be attached to a person's body to exert their abilities through the body.
It is not easy for ghosts of the lower three grades to possess a living person.
It must first draw out the loopholes in the dark side of a person's heart in order to take advantage of the weakness and gain some initial control of the body.
At this time, the consciousness of the "host" and the "ghost" coexist, and the power of the ghost is limited.
In order to further control the body, the host's wishes must be fulfilled.
This wish is based on the loophole in the mind caused by the possession of the ghost.
As the wish is fulfilled step by step, the ghosts will further suppress the host's will and gradually take control of the body, thus exerting more complete and powerful power.
In the process, the host's spiritual will might backfire, causing the entire body to go out of control and do some strange things.
When the ghost eventually consumes the original host's will completely, it is the completion of the seizure, truly taking control of the body and being able to fully exert the various abilities that the ghost itself possesses.
Possession, control, and seizure!
This was the entire process of a ghost taking control of a body, and after this was completed, it could continue to pursue and devour yang energy to strengthen itself.
And before the complete completion of the seizure, although the ghosts could still devour the yang energy, they would have some losses and would not be able to fully absorb and digest it.
As Zhou Heng read the memory crystals to this part, he couldn't help but think of the two ghosts he had encountered.
One was Yu Yu, who had possessed Chen Hanyu, and the other was Feng You, who had possessed Master Qian.
The former had said that he had fulfilled Chen Hanyu's wish to obtain a peerless appearance and have all the men in the world adore her, which fit the characteristics of the ghosts.
The latter was likewise true.
Due to his crippled memory, he did not have a complete understanding of the specifics of when Feng You possessed Master Qian.
But he could make some guesses.
I'm afraid that what Feng You was using when he possessed the Qian Master was the reluctance and resentment in the heart of the Qian Master.
And then by fulfilling the Qian shopkeeper's wish to take revenge on the crane, on Zhao Yuan, and even on Liu Changsheng, he gradually took control of this body.
"When you initially infiltrated the crane with ghost qi, Feng You should still only be initially possessing the body, so you can only quietly infiltrate it with ghost qi." Zhou Heng pondered in his heart and secretly said.
"After completing its revenge against the crane, it should have initially stepped into the 'control' level, where it could exert even more power as well as special abilities, and then killed Zhao Yuan to further complete its control.
"Then its final move to inexplicably attack Liu Changsheng is also understandable, it wasn't just a mere act of chaos, but to complete the Master Qian's wish to completely complete the seizure."
Zhou Heng finally straightened out quite a bit of Feng You's seemingly somewhat confusing behavior from before.
It was all because it was going to further complete its control over Qian Master's body, in order to be able to exert more and more complete power.
Everything was for a reason.
"However, it's only logical that Shopkeeper Qian's hatred for me should be stronger as well, so why didn't Feng You attack me first?" Zhou Heng was a little confused, guessing that it was because Feng You wanted to save his "delicious meal" for last.
After all, Feng You couldn't fully absorb and digest his yang energy until he had completely finished taking away his life.
As for Zhao Yuan to write the line "Murderer Zhou Heng" before his death, to involve Zhou Heng, I'm afraid it's because Feng You suffered from the spiritual devouring of Shopkeeper Qian, that's why he did it.
If not, Feng You could have secretly fulfilled his wish, kept a low profile, gradually became stronger, and in the end, earned a wave of blood, retreated and flew far away.
Of course, judging from the fact that Cheng Jiangjian came so quickly, Wu Zongshan, the house master, is not a vegetarian, and has mostly been suspicious of Qian treasurer from the beginning.
Even if Feng You really wanted to keep a low profile development, he might not really be able to succeed in the end.
In addition, Zhou Heng had learned an extremely important piece of information in this part of Feng You's dropped memory.
Why did the Zhou Tian Patrol Division and the major powers conceal the existence of ghosts?
Because the more people in the world who know about the existence of ghosts, and the more detailed the information they know, the easier it will be for ghosts to be born.
In other words: the more people who know information about ghosts, the more ghosts there will be!
The only people in the world who could kill ghosts below the third grade were those of the Zhoutian Patrol Division.
And the Zhoutian Patrol Realm Division's manpower was also very small, even now there were many areas that were difficult to take care of.
If the number of ghosts increased further, it would be a huge disaster.
It was for this reason that there was such an effort to conceal information about ghosts and even the existence of ghosts.
Theoretically, it wouldn't hurt if a few people knew about the existence of the ghosts, or even knew the details of the ghosts.
However, people always have a desire to spread "exclusive information", often one person knows something, means that ten, hundreds of people or even more people also know about it.
One spreads ten, ten spreads a hundred!
The consequences of spreading it this way would eventually be unimaginable.
Directly choking off the source of the spread at the source and trying to prevent the birth of the source of the spread as much as possible, although this was the most clumsy method, it was also the most effective method.
However, it was imperative that the governors of the various states and counties, the lords of the various local prefectures, and other forces and people who needed to assist the Zhoutian Patrol Boundary Division in hunting down the ghosts, that they knew the information about the ghosts .
This cannot be avoided.
It's just that since the more people who know information about ghosts, the easier it is for them to breed, why don't the ghosts make a conscious effort to promote that information?
A question arose in Zhou Heng's heart.
Unfortunately, this part of the memory that Feng You had dropped didn't contain any explanation about it.
"Ghosts... evil things..." said Zhou Heng silently to himself in his heart.
Now he had understood why both Cheng Jiangjian and Wu Zongshan were incredibly cautious in their treatment of ghostly objects.
This world, it seemed, was far from being as calm and peaceful as it appeared on the surface.
The First Grade of Martial Dao can be called "Divine First Grade", which is called "Holy".
There was more than one divine in the world.
But even so, it was still unable to completely eliminate the breeding of ghosts.
And he still knew nothing about evil things.
.....
Wu Zongshan was worthy of being in charge of a government.
The matter of Zhao Yuan's death was settled by him in a matter of two days.
Head Qian logically sat on the charge of murderer.
It cleared Zhou Heng's name.
The truth of the matter was completely buried.
Thus, after nesting at home for two days, Zhou Heng finally returned to the Long Xing Martial Arts School that he had been longing for.
After all, he had paid his tuition.
Always taking time off these days, but it really pained him to death.
Moreover, always practicing martial arts in the field was not an option, didn't the martial arts hall smell good?
"You are trying to cultivate the martial art "Eighteenth Form of Divine Might" [Ninth Grade], proficiency +5."
.....
"You continue to cultivate the martial art "Eighteenth Form of Divine Might" [Ninth Grade], triggering 'Heaven's Reward', proficiency +30."
.....
Since Zhou Heng hadn't had time to tell Instructor Lin the news that he was already a Ninth Grade, the martial arts school naturally didn't make any follow-up arrangements for him, so he could now only practice the few Ninth Grade martial arts he had previously learned.
The Solitary Nine Swords those weren't suitable for practice at the martial arts school either.
Although the Eighteenth Form of Divine Might he had already cultivated to the level of perfection and the reward of the Lucky Bag had already arrived, as an obsessive-compulsive, there was always the mentality of brushing up his proficiency to the upper limit before he was considered perfect.
Even just watching the proficiency rise just a little bit like this was a joy, a refreshing feeling for Zhou Heng.
Practicing martial arts peacefully and steadily, gradually becoming stronger, this was a normal life ah!
It would be nice if it could go on like this forever and no ghosts or other spooky things would appear.
This was Zhou Heng's current state of mind.
"Hey! You kid is finally back!" Lin Cang came over, he was finally relieved to see that Zhou Heng was practicing martial arts seriously.
That day when Zhou Heng was taken away from the martial arts school by Meng Xing, he was so worried that he even went to see the old school master to intercede with him.
But before the old hall master could do anything, news came from the courthouse that the real culprit had been found and that Zhou Heng was only innocent of being framed.
This put Lin Cang's mind at ease, but the dust hadn't really settled in the past two days, and Zhou Heng hadn't come to the martial arts school, so he was a little worried after all.
Now that "seeing is believing", this hanging heart of his was finally put to rest.
"Master Lin." Zhou Heng stopped to greet him.
"Well, I haven't seen you for a few days, your kung fu is quite solid." Lin Cang felt that a few days without seeing him, he should praise him first, and he just saw also Zhou Heng practicing his kung fu, it was indeed solid.
"Slightly improved." Zhou Cheng smiled and at the same time, he was considering if he should now tell the matter of his promotion to the Ninth Grade.
"Hiss, boy is very confident!" Lin Cang suddenly felt that this mere praise might make Zhou Heng complacent, so he said, "Come, Xiao Zhou, let's meet again Two hands, let me see how far you are from nine."
"Huh?" Zhou Heng couldn't help but scratch his head at the words and smiled, "This, I'm nine items away..."
