Starting from the folklore forum, making up town objects

Chapter 287 Immersive Experience

Crunch!

The door of the slaughterhouse was pushed open. Bai Bowen stuck his head out, took a quick look around, and then walked in sideways.

Following closely behind is Chen Xin.

In fact, Chen Xin didn't intend to let Bai Bowen rush to the front. Compared with Bai Bowen, a real rookie, it would be less likely for him to make mistakes if he walked in front, which would make their first task easier.

Unfortunately, Bai Bowen seemed to think that he, Chen Xin, had made efforts as an information organizer, and that he should make more efforts in the future, so that it would be fairer.

Chen Xin didn't say anything else about this.

After entering, Bai Bowen did not walk inside, but put down his box and opened it.

"Normally this kind of thing is done by an assistant, but we are both new and don't have any assistants, so we have to carry these things ourselves."

Bai Bowen knew that Chen Xin didn't know much about the frontline work of the Public Opinion Survey Bureau, so he explained it to her in passing.

As he spoke, he took out a thumb-thick green candle from a slot in the box, lit it, and closed the box.

"This is a ghost candle. When it gets close to a ghost, the flame of the ghost candle will turn green. The closer it is to the ghost, the faster the ghost candle burns and the greener the light becomes."

Chen Xin looked at the candle in Bai Bowen's hand. He had seen this thing before, and had also seen it among the exchange items at the Public Opinion Survey Bureau.

There are many items of the same type, such as a special kind of cigarette. After smoking it, the smoke exhaled will flow from the area with low concentration of Yin Qi to the area with high concentration of Yin Qi. In this way, you can follow the smoke to find the ghost or the ghost itself.

In fact, the function of the ghost candle is similar to that of the black magpie feather, except that the ghost candle can only find ghosts but cannot eliminate them.

Wu Que Yu can not only find ghosts, but also attack them when they get close.

If it is placed in the exchange window of the Public Opinion Bureau, its price will definitely be much higher than that of the Ghost Candle, not to mention that the Black Magpie Feather can also be upgraded.

This time, Chen Xin did not exchange for the Ghost Candle, but only exchanged for ten Yang Stones as a token of his appreciation.

As for Bai Bowen, Chen Xin also saw some things in the box that the other party had just opened.

For example, the previously mentioned incense is also in it.

"The box is still a little inconvenient. I plan to order some wearable devices when I get back. It would be better if something like the ghost candle could be inserted into clothes. This way, I don't have to carry the box and open it when something happens."

As Bai Bowen spoke, he was already walking towards the slaughterhouse holding the ghost candle.

After entering the gate, there is a yard facing you. On the right side of the yard is a row of pig pens, and on the left side is a slaughterhouse.

Bai Bowen walked towards the slaughterhouse with the ghost candle. After all, the murders all happened in the slaughterhouse.

Look inside.

Although it was not dark yet, the slaughterhouse was very dark. Although the windows were not blocked, it gave people a feeling that dusk was approaching night.

As soon as he entered, a chilly feeling emerged from the soles of his feet and spread throughout Bai Bowen's entire body.

The ghost candle in Bai Bowen's hand also changed.

At this time, a hint of green light appeared on the ghost candle.

This was within the two's expectations. If there was really no reaction, they should have paid attention.

Looking around, you can see rows of hooks hanging on the steel beams in the room.

There was rotten pork on some of the hooks, most of which were half a pig. I'm afraid they were not able to be taken away when the accident happened.

“You should wear a mask.”

Bai Bowen said with a frown.

I had thought of many situations before coming here and spent a lot of points on it, but I didn't expect the smell on the scene to be so strong. It was really a miscalculation.

"Haha, it's normal to be inconsiderate for the first time. If you make more mistakes, you will make fewer mistakes in the future."

Chen Xin said.

"Too."

Bai Bowen nodded and walked forward.

The change in the color of the ghost candle cast a layer of light green light over the slaughterhouse, making the hooks in the slaughterhouse look a little eerie. By the way, the temperature seemed to have dropped a little.

After Bai Bowen circulated the qi and blood in his body, the discomfort in his body disappeared.

"Which of these hooks has ever had a human being hooked on it?"

Bai Bowen looked at the hooks and suddenly thought of a question.

There were photos in the previous analysis report, but the photos were close-ups of the body and did not show the specific location. He just glanced at it and didn't pay any more attention to it...another pitfall caused by lack of experience.

"It should be the two next to the desk in front."

Chen Xin replied.

Because of his previous work habits in the information sorting department, he looked at the photos a few more times and remembered some details.

Bai Bowen looked towards the pork processing platform in front of him. When he was about to walk over, he heard Chen Xin's next words.

"Although only Yi died on the hook, I think other hooks may have caught people before. You should pay more attention."

Upon hearing this, Bai Bowen remembered the disappearance and dismemberment cases that occurred here before the butcher's death, and nodded.

As they got closer, the ghost candle in Bai Bowen's hand became greener and greener.

This discovery made Bai Bowen clench his fists, and the energy and blood in his body was in a state where it could explode at any time.

As expected, the ghost is nearby.

Whether it is an evil ghost or a wandering soul, the answer will be revealed.

Thinking of this, Bai Bowen was not afraid at all. Instead, he felt eager to try.

"Chen Xin, if the evil ghost doesn't use the ghost wall and comes out to fight directly, let me try my hand with the evil ghost first."

"it is good."

Bai Bowen was delighted to hear Chen Xin agree.

His colleague and classmate Chen Xin has a very nice personality. Unfortunately, after the qualifying round, he and Chen Xin will probably have to separate and work as assistants to specialists in other first-line polling bureaus for a while.

When he reaches the point where he can face evil spirits on his own and becomes a team leader, Chen Xin will probably no longer be just an assistant.

Therefore, this one month or so may be the longest time the two of them have been together. In the future, they may only see each other occasionally between missions.

Although it’s a bit of a pity, this is the fate, the fate between geniuses!
As he sighed in his heart, the ghost candle in Bai Bowen's hand also turned green to a certain degree.

The detection range of the ghost candle in his hand is about three meters, which means that there are ghosts or ghost creatures within three meters.

Bai Bowen follows the Yang school's approach, and cannot sense which object has more Yin energy as accurately as the Yin school's approach, so he can only test it himself.

He looked at the table three meters in front of him and the various butchering tools on it, and then glanced at the meat hooks on both sides of the table.

If there are ghosts, they are probably these few things. Instead of waiting for the ghosts to appear on their own, it is better to take the initiative to attack.

Bai Bowen slowly placed the ghost candle and the box on the ground.

With his hands free, he channeled his energy and blood into his fists and feet.

Without any hesitation, Bai Bowen rushed forward.

He leaped into the air and kicked towards the platform.

After the Qi and blood power from the soles of the feet were output and injected into the platform, there was no change.

With an idea in his mind, Bai Bowen used the force of the kick to move to the left and grabbed the meat hook that was almost as big as his head.

The expected situation did not happen. Bai Bowen cursed inwardly "bad luck" and then turned around and pounced on the meat hook on the other side.

This series of actions took less than three seconds, and the movements were so smooth that it was obvious that Bai Bowen had a clear plan before he took action.

But despite this, after completing a set of movements, Bai Bowen found that his qi and blood power did not touch what he wanted to touch.

Ghost, not here?

Bai Bowen frowned and turned to look at the candle on the ground that was still emitting a pale green light.

"Even in the ghost wall, ghosts below the level of fierce evil spirits cannot block the light of the ghost candle. The possibility of fierce evil spirits appearing here is very small. If there really is a fierce evil spirit, there is also Team Leader Jin Chao to back it up, so I don't need to worry about the possibility of fierce evil spirits here."

"So, where is the ghost?"

As Bai Bowen spoke, he looked at the three-meter area around the ghost candle. "Chen Xin, try to attack the other hooks and see if there are any problems."

After Bai Bowen said something to Chen Xin, he turned around and looked at the platform he had just kicked.

There are some butchering tools on the platform. Could these be them?
The power of qi and blood emerged in Bai Bowen's hands and he reached out to those knives and sticks.

But even though he touched them all, he couldn't force the ghost out.

So, his goal was wrong.

"Chen Xin, did you find anything over there?"

"Have!"

Bai Bowen turned his head suddenly and saw Chen Xin standing under a meat hook with half a piece of meat hanging on it.

Meat?
The ghost is in the flesh?

Bai Bowen walked over quickly and stood beside Chen Xin.

"what is the problem?"

"I see it moves, you try it."

Bai Bowen looked delighted when he heard Chen Xin say this.

He was thinking that Chen Xin would take the lead this time, but before he even opened his mouth, Chen Xin took the initiative to give up the opportunity.

"it is good!"

Bai Bowen took a step forward and reached out to the half piece of sour and smelly pork with the power of qi and blood in his hand.

At this moment, how could he still dislike the taste of pork?

Bang!

When Bai Bowen touched the pork with his right hand, he felt a slippery feeling, and felt nauseous and confused.

"Why didn't it react? Are you sure you saw it move just now?"

Bai Bowen frowned and looked at Chen Xin beside him.

But there was no Chen Xin next to him.

All there was was a whole pig hanging on a meat hook!

His pupils shrank, and Bai Bowen punched the pig reflexively.

The pig swung backward in an arc and hit another pig.

Before Bai Bowen could react, he bumped into something while backing away.

He turned around and kicked, and the thing behind him swung up.

If it’s not a pig, what else could it be?
Turning around and looking around, I saw that all the meat hooks that were originally empty were now filled with pigs!

There were so many of them, no less than forty or fifty of them!
And those pigs, without exception, all opened their eyes and stared at him.

At this point, Bai Bowen had no idea what was going on.

"When did it start?"

Bai Bowen dodged the pig that he had kicked up just now and his eyes fell on the ghost candle on the ground.

In the flickering candlelight, he seemed to have discovered something.

The power of qi and blood emerged from his feet and he kicked forward.

The ghost candle flew out, but the pale green candlelight remained in place.

With a click, Guizhu fell to the side.

Looking at the faint green light on the ghost candle, and then looking at the pale green ghost candle in its original position, Bai Bowen's face became gloomy.

Ghost wall is a phenomenon that is difficult to explain scientifically.

The hallucinations triggered by the ghost wall do not depend entirely on ghosts, they are also related to the people who are in the ghost wall.

In the Ghost Wall, most of the things are created by ghosts, but some of them are created by ghosts with the help of human memory in some way.

So many times, it is difficult to distinguish the true from the false.

The ghost candle at this time is the best example.

When the ghost candle itself is burning, it will not be blocked by the ghost wall.

But this ghost used a method that Bai Bowen had not expected. It covered the ghost candle with another layer of ghost candle, which gave him the illusion that the ghost was within three meters.

One step wrong, step by step wrong.

As for when he was infected, it doesn't matter anymore.

Bai Bowen looked at the pigs hanging on the hooks and did not try to use the burst of qi and blood to break the ghost wall.

This ghost is a little too smart. Thinking of the previous analysis, he feels that his own energy and blood power may not be enough to break through the ghost wall.

and so……

Bai Bowen reached into his pocket and took out the Yang Stone that Chen Xin had given him before.

Fortunately, he always carried this Yang Stone with him. If he had put it in the box just now, it would be hard for him to believe whether the box was a real box.

Holding the Yang Stone, Bai Bowen poured his energy and blood into it.

Soon, a faint orange-red light emanated from the Yang Stone, illuminating the two-meter area around him.

In the orange-red light, the pork hanging on the hooks disappeared, revealing the empty hooks underneath.

But beyond the light, other pork still exists.

The stimulation of the Yang Stone did not break through the ghost wall, but only prevented the ghost wall from covering the range of the Yang Stone's protection.

This situation made Bai Bowen frown.

In this case, unless he leaves the slaughterhouse and the monster's territory, he will just be a blind man with a vision of only two meters.

But what is leaving the slaughterhouse?
Acknowledge?
Bai Bowen didn't want this situation to happen during his first mission.

"The slaughterhouse is only this big. Chen Xin also has Yang Stone. Let's meet up first."

Bai Bowen also wondered whether Chen Xin would leave first, but he quickly gave up the idea.

Although Chen Xin is easy-going, he doesn't seem like someone who gives up easily.

Thinking of this, Bai Bowen picked up the box on the ground with the Yang Stone, then took the ghost candle and wandered around the slaughterhouse according to his memory, looking for his partner.

But at this time, Chen Xin was not in the slaughterhouse at all. He had already come to the pigpen.

Not long after entering the slaughterhouse, Chen Xin was attracted by the noise outside. He then took Bai Bowen out of the room and entered the pigpen.

What happened later was similar to what happened to Bai Bowen.

Chen Xin, who was taking Bai Bowen away, was suddenly attacked by Bai Bowen.

The attack process left Chen Xin speechless.

Bai Bowen turned into a pig and pushed him from behind!
Chen Xin's physical condition is so poor that even ten pigs can't move him.

But Chen Xin still obeyed the pig's wishes and jumped into the pigpen.

Then, he turned from a man into a pig!
Chen Xin knew that he could break through this illusion by simply using a little bit of his energy and blood, but he didn't.

On the one hand, this immersive experience is very interesting, but on the other hand, he wants to see what the ghosts here want to do.

Just then, Chen Xin saw someone walking in.

It would be inaccurate to say that it is a human, because it has a pig's head!
