I set up a shelter organization
Chapter 17: The Lantern Man in Retro Style
From the information, it can be seen that Xu Zhou is not living well.
A father who is addicted to gambling and lazy, and a mother who has been supporting the family and working hard to raise Xu Zhou.
At that time, Xu Zhou was in high school and needed money, so she could only take a part-time job, working day and night. The overwork ruined her health and she died of illness.
As soon as she left, Xu Zhou could only work part-time, studying and working at the same time. In addition, he had a gambling father who asked him for money from time to time. In the end, he failed the college entrance examination and only got into an ordinary university.
Xu Zhou's mother has been dead for three years!
So who is Xu Zhou seeing now?
Do ghosts really exist after death?
Although the Deviant Society is an organization that specializes in containing the weird, the Deviant Society's definition of the weird is not the ghost in our daily life.
When a person dies, he or she becomes a ghost and possesses all the memories and emotions of his or her previous life. If the person holds too much resentment and hurts others after death, he or she will become an evil spirit. This is the common definition of a ghost.
As for the formation of weirdness, its origin is still unknown, but after long-term research, weirdness is not formed after a person dies. It is more like a rule formed by nature, a brand new thing.
Ghosts can be killed.
However, only weirdness can cause damage, and some weirdness can devour another weirdness to increase its own strength.
There is also a kind of weird weapon that is contaminated with a weird aura or integrated with a weird aura to hurt the weird.
Ji Wu has worked in the Deviant Society for many years and has seen all kinds of strange, bizarre and terrifying things, but he has never heard of or seen a ghost.
Ji Wu felt very strange. Although he did not have a contract with a strange spirit, his physique was adapted to the strange spirit. He could see strange auras that ordinary people could not see. Except for not being able to determine the specific location of the strange spirit, he could also see what the strange spirit master could see.
Why, this time, Xu Zhou could see his mother, but Ji Wu could not see anything?
What are the differences between them?
Xu Zhou stared at the bridge in a daze. His mother waved at him with a smile on her face, her eyes filled with satisfaction and concern for him.
Xu Zhou took another step forward.
Intellectually he told himself that it couldn't be his mother, but emotionally he told himself that it was his mother!
The mother who cares about him, loves him!
Xu Zhou's eyes turned red.
He thought, since he is now a master of tricks, it’s okay to indulge himself a little, right?
"mom!"
Xu Zhou rushed towards the bridge.
The speed was so fast that Ji Wu couldn't stop it.
"Xu Zhou! Don't go over there!"
"Damn it!"
Ji Wu watched Xu Zhou rush into the bridge, his figure submerged in the white mist.
He opened his phone and sent a text message to Bai Zuo, urging him to come as soon as possible.
Then he rushed in immediately.
Xu Zhou is too young and lacks experience, and Ji Wu is worried about letting him face the strangeness alone.
After crossing the boundary line of the bridge, Ji Wu felt like he had come to a white world.
There was nothing but fog all around, and the visible range was only a few steps away.
Ji Wu had no choice but to keep moving forward based on his feelings.
He didn't know how long he had walked, he just felt that the distance he had walked was far longer than the length of a bridge, but the white fog still seemed to have no end in sight.
Did he really walk on the bridge?
Where does this white fog lead to?
Ji Wu wiped the sweat from his face and stopped to take a few breaths. His physical strength had been systematically trained, so even if he ran five kilometers, he would not be as tired as he is now. Moreover, he had been walking fast to conserve his energy.
There is something wrong with this white fog!
And Xu Zhou, why haven’t I seen him after walking for so long?
Ji Wu supported himself on his knees and gasped with his head down. His physical strength was too exhausted. The white mist seemed to accelerate the loss of his physical strength, and this process was difficult to detect.
Ji Wu trains regularly and is very familiar with his physical strength. If it were an ordinary person, he would probably be like a headless fly, wandering around in this endless white fog.
Before he knew it, he had exhausted all his strength, and in the end he couldn't even move. He fell into the white mist and couldn't stand up again.
Ji Wu took out his cell phone again and tried to contact Xu Zhou.
The signal on the mobile phone was blank and the calls I made could not be connected.
"Will it affect the signal's strange domain?"
Such strange areas are quite common, but Ji Wu is not sure whether this strange place is a strange area.
Because he didn't encounter Gui.
Ji Wu rested for a while and wanted to continue walking forward to look for Xu Zhou when he heard a crisp bell ringing behind him.
It sounded like the kind of wind chimes that were hanging somewhere and tinkled when the wind blew.
Ji Wu quickly turned around, and there was still a sea of white behind him.
He narrowed his eyes and saw something moving in the white fog, coming towards him.
Ding~Dingling~
In the white mist, half a person's height, a red dot was swaying and flying towards this side.
The closer the distance got, the clearer Ji Wu could see.
It turned out that it was a lit lamp with several bells hanging on it. When the lamp was shaken, they made crisp sounds.
An old man with a hunched back, wearing a straw raincoat and a bamboo hat, walked slowly towards me, holding a lantern.
He had a head full of white hair and his face was covered with wrinkles. When he saw Ji Wu standing aside with empty hands, he couldn't help but let out a light exclamation.
"Young man, why don't you light a lamp when you walk through the vagina?"
"You can't get out like this."
Ji Wu couldn't tell whether he was a human or a monster, so he stood there silently without answering.
The old man was very considerate and did not ask him why he was there or where he was going. Instead, he said as he walked:
"Follow the old man and walk out quickly."
Ji Wu thought for a while and continued to stay in the white fog, either walking until he was exhausted or waiting for someone to come find him.
There may be more than one space in this white fog. The space Xu Zhou entered may be different from the space Ji Wu entered, so Ji Wu has never seen Xu Zhou.
After thinking about it, Ji Wu still followed the old man silently. No matter what was waiting for him ahead, it was better than being trapped in the white fog and unable to do anything.
The red light just illuminated the area around the two of them.
The old man didn't speak either.
The two walked in the white fog.
This time, Ji Wu found that the rate at which his physical strength was being lost was normal.
Ji Wu glanced at the lamp in the old man's hand. Could it be related to this lamp?
"Young man, we're here."
The old man took a step forward and disappeared from Ji Wu's sight.
Ji Wu followed him out of the white fog.
My eyes suddenly opened up.
Without the obstruction of the white fog, Ji Wu found that he had come to a completely new place.
Ji Wu looked back.
The white fog covers the bridge, and once you step out of the bridge, the white fog disappears.
The old man still held the lantern and walked forward unsteadily. On the way, he met many other people holding lanterns.
They include men and women, young and old, and their dress is also different from that of people outside. Most of them wear ancient costumes, which are very similar to the dress of the elderly.
