Chapter 171 - Soul Coin Upsides Down Yinyang (1/2)

Chapter 171 Soul Coin Upsides Down Yinyang“Corpse of soul coin?” Hearing this, Hao Ning and others thought that something must be wrong. “Why was it called this name?”

“Because once their souls were displaced, they were close to death,” Nezha drank his water and was reluctant to talk about this topic. He added, “Their souls were bitten a slice once they were displaced. They became soul coins until their souls disappeared. In terms of their bodies, they would die in a normal way, such as the way you always use in this secular world, like death from overwork.”

“Well…” Hao Ning became stuttering. Although Zhang Quan had told him the story, he still could not accept the factor when it was spoken by the insider — Nezha. “Do you have any way to help the souls not be bitten?”

“Well…” Nezha rubbed his temple and said, “I don’t know. I just know that this was a new method discovered by the Soul Hunting Sect. The aim is to hunt souls. As they aim to hunt souls, nobody has the impetus to research how to recover the souls. Am I right?”

“Err, what you said makes sense,” Hao Ning blinked. He had to acknowledge that he asked a low-IQ question: It seemed to be like that he asked a killer to bring a man who was killed by him back to life. What a stupid question it was!

“That means that you know how to let a man learn Kung Fu through a person’s soul,” Zhou Yuan asked and added, “But you don’t know how to recover his soul?”

“Not like that…” Nezha smiled with an embarrassment, rubbing his head and waving his arm, “I don’t know the details about how to let a person learn Kung Fu through his soul— you know, it was done by my men. I just came here not long ago. And, nobody asked me to do this kind of low-level things. As you know, I am a famous person, and I am one of the favorite men in Mr. Fei’s eyes. I am also the general manager of Southern China. So, I don’t know these low-level things. There is a saying in the secular world to describe persons like me. I remember it is like my words are more beautiful than what I do. Do you remember?”

“Have grandiose aims but puny abilities!” Hao Ning said.

“Reach for what is beyond one’s grasp,” Xiao Hong said.

“Have great ambition but little talent,” Zhou Yuan said.

“Shameless!” Liu Shuai said.

Nezha never expected that they said so many saying about him. It seemed that they were prepared for it earlier. The first three sounded nice except the last one said by Liu Shuai. He almost agreed with them when he heard what Liu Shuai said. He opened his eyes wider, looking at Liu Shuai with others, “Liu Shuai, what you said seemed to be not a good one for my behavior.”

“Err…” Liu Shuai felt embarrassed, rubbing his head and smiling, “I know. I know. What Nezha just said reminded me of my former CEO, and I blurted it out…”

“What you said should not be heard by him,” Hao Ning smiled, adding, “Or your career may be affected.”

“I know. Stop making nonsense. Let’s go to our points,” Liu Shuai looked at Nezha seriously and said. “What should we do with so many souls? Do we practice witchcrafts?”

“Witchcrafts?” hearing what Liu Shuai said, Nezha looked at Xiao Hong and smiled. He drank and said again, “What you said happened a long time ago.”

“As a matter of fact, I also want to know,” Xiao Hong asked lightly, drinking. He added, “Why did Mr. Fei’s secret Sects want to have so many souls in a sudden?”

“I don’t know the details,” Nezha stopped smiling and said seriously. “What I know is that it is related to an internal invention of Mr. Fei’s,” he said.

“What invention?” Hao Ning asked. Although he thought it was strange that the technological word was said by Nezha, he still asked.

“No name heard for outsiders, but to insiders,” Nezha looked at Hao Ning. “It was called the Soul Coin Engine,” he added.

“Soul Coin Engine?”

“Yes,” Nezha nodded. He hesitated as if he had not known how to describe, “They called it an epoch-making invention. They said it was a kind of energy which was transformed into what. It sounded like a delicious dish called what chicken. Yes, Water Vapor Chicken. I just remembered Jiaohua Chicken, Luhua Chicken. I never heard Water Vapor Chicken.”

As Nezha continued to talk without stopping, Hao Ning had an idea with shining eyes. He asked with hesitation, “What you said is energy transformation, right? It sounded like the steam engine invented by Watt hundreds of years ago?”

Liu Shuai and Zhou Yuan felt a little shocked when they heard what Hao Ning said. It was common knowledge that Watt invented the steam engine that prompted the development of the first industrial revolution. What Nezha mentioned equaled with the steam engine. What a surprise it was!

“Oh, yes, yes,” Nezha laughed. He said it while he ate his dish. “I always forgot about it. Due to my bad memory, I am always teased by Mr. Fei. However, he did not force me to remember it. The Soul Coin Engine, its most useful function is to be used with the Soul Coin Material, and…”

“Oh, I see!” Hao Ning looked at others. He stood up and walked back and forth in the room several times. Instantly, all the confusion was solved.

“Liu Shuai! Xiao Hong!” Hao Ning screamed seriously, shocking both. Hao Ning looked at them seriously and said, “Can you explain the principles for your magic weapons?”

“Magic weapons? Principles?” Xiao Hong was shocked, and he did not know how to answer it. Liu Shuai was a programmer and he knew the theology. He could understand what Hao Ning asked promptly. He wanted to make a joke about him. However, when he saw Hao Ning’s expression, he changed his mind. He had to answer it seriously, “In general, a magic weapon is made of various special materials through many methods. It is used for some special purposes, such as Fantian Seal, Yinyang Mirror, Immortal Tying Rope, and Hunyuan Vat…”

Liu Shuai gave some examples that Nezha knew. Nezha nodded while he was listening to him. Liu Shuai continued to say, “But there is a common characteristic of the magic weapons that is the user should have power. Nobody can use it if he does not have power. Even the Immortal Tying Rope, it requires less power. However, if the user does not have power, he is not able to use it.”

“Does it mean that these magic weapons, in essence, are machines?” Hao Ning muttered to himself. He added, “The weapons are like cars. And the power the user has is like gas or alternating current. The power is the power source for the weapons.”

“You, you can say so,” Liu Shuai rubbed his head. Although the examples Hao Ning made were strange, his examples were right. So, he continued to say, “As you know, few people would think refining magic weapons falls into the field of metaphysics or theology.”

“Don’t judge me,” Hao Ning said. As he knew a little about it and he could not practice power, he did not feel embarrassed. So, he continued to ask, “From my view, based on what I learned in school, can I say that a magic weapon is a tool to transform energy, and it can transform power into other energy and release it?”

“Err…” Liu Shuai said bitterly. “Hao Ning, what you said is right, but you should not say like that. We should not think that the Red Armillary Sash can transform Nezha’s power into the Red Armillary Sash’s energy, right?”

“What is the essence of Nezha’s power?” Hao Ning seemed to be a little crazy. He was reluctant to listen to what Liu Shuai said. He asked Liu Shuai in reply.

“Hey, that is what all of us knew already…” seeing that Hao Ning was nervous and Liu Shuai was serious, Zhou Yuan couldn’t help smiling and said, “Incense!”
