I set up a shelter organization
Chapter 18: The King of Hell passes by, and everyone avoids him
Most of them walked in silence.
They don't say hello or talk to each other when they meet.
Ji Wu realized that if the old man had not seen that he had no lamp in his hand and was afraid that he could not get out of the white fog, he probably would not have called him.
The lantern bearers, holding lights for each other, walked through the white fog.
If you encounter someone without a lantern, in the white fog, who can tell whether the person in front of you is a human or a monster?
The old man was extremely bold and kind-hearted for daring to call him.
Ji Wu wanted to thank the old man, but he couldn't find him.
He could only follow those people holding lanterns, walking without knowing their purpose.
The surrounding scenery is a bit like the reflection on the water, with vague and unclear shadows.
However, you can still see some mottled streets, street lights on the roadside, shops on both sides of the road, and tall skyscrapers.
This is a city.
A modern city.
But there was no one or vehicle in the city, only these outsiders holding lanterns and walking on the road.
Strange, why does this city feel so familiar?
and many more!
Ji Wu turned around and looked in the direction he came from.
That bridge connects the road from Fujing District to Anyang Island.
Could this be Anyang Island?
But Anyang Island is a well-known tourist destination in Anyang City, with a constant stream of tourists coming and going. It is impossible that there is no one here like now.
What exactly is this place?
Where is Xu Zhou?
Where did he go again?
Ji Wu is very worried now. He doesn’t know where Xu Zhou is. Can Bai Zuo find this place?
"Disciplinary supervision?"
Suddenly, Xu Zhou's voice came from the right.
Ji Wu was startled and looked to the right.
Xu Zhou was holding a lot of food in his hands and waving at him with a smile. Beside him was a middle-aged woman with a kind smile, looking at Xu Zhou with loving eyes.
"Xu Zhou, I finally found you. Who is she?"
Although Ji Wu asked this, he had actually guessed the identity of this woman in his heart.
Xu Zhou really smiled and introduced him: "Supervisor Ji, this is my mother, mom, this is my boss's supervisor."
"Okay, okay, Xiaozhou has grown up, found a job, and can support himself."
Judging from her facial features, Xu Zhou does look quite like this woman. She is in her forties and looks much older than her peers due to the hard work of life.
However, one can tell from her eyes and eyebrows that she must have been a beautiful woman when she was young.
Her eyes were filled with tears, as if she knew how much suffering her son had endured since she left.
Ji Wu greeted her and looked at her secretly.
Apart from her pale complexion, her behavior was the same as that of a normal person, and there didn't seem to be any strange aura about her.
How is this going?
Ji Wu felt that this place was very strange. It was unusual that someone who had been dead for three years reappeared.
"Mom, go to that store and take a look. If you want to buy anything, I'll pay for it."
"it is good."
After sending his mother away, Xu Zhou looked at Ji Wu hesitantly, "Supervisor Ji, do you see anything wrong?"
Ji Wu: "Are you sure she is? And not some weird fake?"
Xu Zhou nodded: "I asked her a lot of things that only we knew, and she remembered them all."
"That's strange. Is it true that ghosts exist after death?"
"It would be great if it were true." One thing Xu Zhou always regretted was that he did not help his mother, which led to her death from overwork.
This time, he thought, maybe he could always be with her.
Ji Wu could see what he was thinking at a glance. Xu Zhou was still very young, and his thoughts were written all over his face.
"Xu Zhou, no matter if she is your mother or not, the dead cannot be resurrected, and humans and ghosts have different paths. It is not good for both of you to stay together."
Seeing Xu Zhou's expression change and become very depressed and lost, Ji Wu said again.
"However, during this time, you can make her happy and show your filial piety. Tell her more about how you are doing now so that she can feel at ease."
"I see."
Xu Zhou's smile was forced, but he also knew that this was the best way.
Ji Wu patted his shoulder and told him to be more positive.
Ji Wu could understand that anyone would feel nostalgic and reluctant to leave when seeing their loved ones whom they thought they would never see again.
Even for an orphan like him who had never seen his relatives, when he came here, he still had a tiny hope deep in his heart.
Will he see relatives here whom he has never met?
Ji Wu laughed at himself, thinking that maybe they were not dead at all, and he was just an abandoned person.
"Small boat."
"Coming, Mom!"
Xu Zhou hurried over and helped her pick out the clothes she liked, and evaluated whether the clothes were suitable for her to wear, trying one piece after another.
This behavior should have made the young man impatient, but Xu Zhou wished that this moment could be prolonged.
Ji Wu was watching outside and couldn't help but take out a cigarette from his pocket and put it under his nose to sniff it.
Even though this is a strange place and everything is illusory, it is still a happy thing for Xu Zhou to see his mother.
"Dang! Dang! Dang!"
"When the King of Hell passes by, everyone will avoid him."
A group of people wearing black ancient robes and evil ghost masks, whose faces could not be seen, held white mourning sticks and soul-guiding banners and walked past in a mighty procession.
Ji Wu stepped aside.
He casually glanced towards the middle of the team.
There was a distraught man walking in the funeral procession. He was dressed differently from the people around him.
He was wearing a woolen coat and warm cotton trousers, looking like a modern man.
He was carried along by the team and moved around involuntarily. There was no rope around him and it seemed like no one was controlling him.
but.
Ji Wu saw his eyes.
His eyes revealed a look of extreme horror and fear!
Ji Wu almost instantly determined that this was probably a passerby who was swept in.
Ji Wu did not disturb Xu Zhou who was still shopping with his mother. He carefully avoided the strange funeral procession and approached the man.
The man was Hu Xingde who had disappeared before.
Hu Xingde didn't know what was going on. He was walking on the bridge when he suddenly saw a familiar figure. When he walked over, he found out that it was his deceased wife.
He was trembling with fear and couldn't help but get closer. That was his beloved wife!
As a result, when he got closer and his wife reached out and held his hand with her cold hand, he lost his mind.
When he woke up, he found himself walking in a funeral procession and had lost control of his body.
He was clearly awake, but he could only watch his body walking uncontrollably along with the funeral procession.
Facing the fear of the unknown almost drove him crazy!
At this moment, a warm hand grabbed his arm, "Hey! Can you move?"
Ji Wu pulled him hard, trying to pull him out.
Someone! Someone came to rescue him!
