Chapter 46 Imprinting
I suddenly turned my head and looked at Xiao Rui. She still lowered her head and kicked the little stone on the ground. I quietly stood up and walked to her side, calmed down, pretended to be nothing, and asked casually: "You said, what's going on with that ghost? Why did you say a few words in Leng Yue's ear and she was like she had changed a different person?"
In order to avoid Xiao Rui hearing my purpose, I deliberately did not say the details of her feeding Leng Yue to "Three Lives" and wanted to see if she could get something out of her mouth. After all, I have eaten "Three Lives" before, and I just ate a little more. I can't guarantee that it will have any impact. I even feel a little scared now, and I don't know why I was obsessed with it and tasted a little. Therefore, although I think Xiao Rui has no bad intentions for me, I still can't help but want to figure out the secrets, so I don't make it so bad that I can make a ghost in the end. Anyway, Xiao Rui is here now, and there is no trace of the villagers, so I don't need to rush to escape from Fengmen Village. Even if they chased me, the two of them were at the entrance of the village and took a step forward. Those people could not chase them anyway, and they were very safe.
Xiao Rui didn't notice my strangeness, just glanced at me with his eyes slanted and said, "Why, do you want to learn?"
I hurriedly said, "It's just curious."
Xiao Rui waved his right hand: "If you want to learn, you say you want to learn, but I didn't say you won't teach." After a pause, he asked again: "Then tell me first, what is a ghost?"
I have written so many horror novels, including ghost stories, but when Xiao Rui really asked me this question, I was still stunned for a moment, and then hesitated: "Ghosts are the souls of people after death."
Xiao Rui said "cut" with a look of contempt: "Only if you die, you will have a soul, and then there will be no soul? Since there is also a soul, why do you have to say that those who die are ghosts? Is it because there is a missing difference? Moreover, most of the stories about ghosts are evil ghosts. Can you say that those good people cannot become ghosts even if they die? What an idiot's idea!"
I was blushed by Xiao Rui's series of words, but I couldn't refute her words. Before experiencing these things, most of my understanding of ghosts actually came from movies and novels. Naturally, I formed this fixed image of the so-called ghosts. Now that I have experienced many incredible things, I have found that I have not seen ghosts with long tongues and bloody orifices. Those who have resurrected after my death are the same as before. If I hadn't watched them die with my own eyes, I wouldn't have even believed that this was a dead person.
If this is a real ghost, then who can guarantee that the one around you must be a human? The old man who smiled at you, the little boss selling buns, the person who was with you that night, maybe something happened not long ago, and the ghost appeared beside him, taking the body into a small hill and burying it. Then he returned home exhausted at night and appeared next to you again, telling you that he was tired from work today and needed a bath. When he washed away the dust and smell, he changed to the sleepyness of the person who was exactly like him. In the middle of the night, he began to hug you and kiss you into your body like him. If he didn't tell all this, who would know the truth?
This seems to be a ridiculous inference, but since there is a strange place like Fengmen Village, there is a possible second one. Since there is an unknown way to resurrect people, there is still a possibility that a second way will exist.
If we can't see it, it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. At least, if what Xiao Rui said is true, then I am such a person.
I remembered that earthen grave. I had died and then resurrected. But I lost that memory. I don’t know what happened, nor why I could walk outside without a strange death.
I was immersed in my imagination, and suddenly I felt a "slap" and the back of my head hurts. I saw Xiao Rui holding up one hand and staring at me: "What a waste of money in class!"
This slap was actually a bit painful. If I had followed the past, although I wouldn't scold Xiaorui, a few words of complaints were absolutely indispensable. It was just because the thoughts just now were too amazing, and I had lost the idea of being angry. I just turned my head and looked at her, thinking: Could it be that you are such a ghost too?
Seeing my expressionless face, Xiao Rui raised his voice and said, "Drink, you can pretend to be cool and resist! Wherever there is resistance, there will be suppression!" As he said that, he raised his hand and wanted to take a picture. His hand reached mid-air. It was probably because he saw that my appearance was wrong, so he stopped and asked, "Hey, what's wrong?"
I shook my head and said, "Stay on your ghost."
Xiao Rui glared at me again: "Tell me you a ghost!" But he just pushed his mouth and continued, "The so-called ghost is to return. After a person dies, his essence and energy return to the heavens, flesh and blood return to water, veins return to the lake, sound and thunder, movements return to the wind, eyes return to the sun and the moon, bones return to wood, tendons return to the mountains, teeth return to stones, oil and ointment return to dew, hair return to grass, breathing energy turns into the dead and returns to the darkness."
She said as she shook her head and finally gave a summary: "So, there are ghosts everywhere in the world."
I thought to myself that we are not descendants of Yan and Huang, and we are all descendants of Kuafu, but I know that since Xiao Rui doesn't want to say it, I will definitely not be able to ask anything. After thinking about it, I finally said straightforwardly that apart from my own question: "You gave Leng Yue the 'Three Lives' and later said something in her ear. What's this for?"
Xiao Rui smiled "hehe" and said, "Didn't I just say that there are ghosts everywhere between heaven and earth? I put the "Three Lives" in Leng Yue's mouth, and then kept telling the ghosts in her ear: If you are obedient, my sister will give you delicious food. If you are not obedient, my sister will blow your head! Then those ghosts will be honest and choose one to go on, it's that simple."
I sighed in my heart. Xiao Rui was obviously talking nonsense. I tried to ask her the secret she wanted to tell me, but she pretended to be stupid and stumble. After I knew that she would not tell me this after getting out of danger, she thought about it and said, "What should we do next? Should we leave?"
Xiao Rui said decisively: "No, you didn't find that piece of fragment. If you go out, you will die."
I said, "You said I won't die if I go out."
Xiao Rui glared again: "Then I'll die if you go out now, why don't you listen?"
I didn't bother to pay attention to her, so I stood up and looked at the entrance of the village in front of me. As long as I walked forward, I could take a step forward. Should I continue to stay in the village or do I have nothing to worry about, and just take a step to escape from Fengmen Village?
At this moment, with a "huh" sound, a figure flew out from me. I was startled and instinctively shrank back. I saw that what was flying out was Director Zhang who was lying on the ground. Xiao Rui had just put down one foot behind me. Needless to say, Director Zhang was kicked out by her just now. I didn't know what the purpose of her doing this was. I was about to ask her when I suddenly heard a scream from behind.
I quickly turned around and saw that Director Zhang, who had been knocked unconscious by Xiao Rui with a stone, was awakened by this kick. However, the expression on his face at this moment was not about seeking revenge on us, but was filled with fear. The scream just now was made by him. It was hard for me to imagine that a man with such a burly figure would scream like a woman, but then I discovered the reason. This person who looked very similar to Director Zhang had been kicked out of the entrance of the village by Xiao Rui.
My heart sank and I shouted, "Come in!"
The man who looked very similar to Director Zhang was about to come into the village, but for some reason, it seemed that there was an invisible transparent wall in front of him. No matter how hard he tried, he could not take a step into the village. Seeing this, I was anxious and wanted to reach out to help him. As soon as I moved my steps, Xiao Rui pulled his clothes and couldn't break free no matter how hard I tried.
The man outside gradually showed a look of despair in his eyes. Suddenly, the muscles on his face twisted, his eyes widened, as if he had seen something extremely terrifying. Then he opened his mouth wide and slowly fell from front of me. My heart gradually became cold. I knew that this person was dead, because I was very familiar with such an expression. I have seen it more than once in that hypnotic world.
I stared at the corpse in front of me. After a while, I slowly turned around, looked at Xiao Rui's eyes and said, "Why did you kick him out and why don't you let me save him back?"
I am not close to this person who looks very much like Director Zhang, and he even wanted to kill me just now. The reason why I blame Xiaorui was because I couldn't watch a living person die in front of me, and I could reach out to pull him.
A living person was kicked out of the village by Xiao Rui and fell into an environment that was completely Jedi for him. Then when I reached out to try to pull him in, Xiao Rui stopped me again, and I wondered why she was doing this, after all, that was a person!
Xiao Rui must have noticed something wrong with my tone, but she raised her chin to me without any weakness and said, "If you walked out of the village just now, it would be the same as him. Anyway, you would not believe me, so you had to use him for an experiment. In the face of the facts, you should know whether you should listen to me, either you die or he dies, you can choose one yourself."
I thought to myself, do you have to choose this? But after knowing that Xiao Rui is for my own good, he is not angry with her, and just said, "At least I can help him just now."
Xiao Rui looked at me with an idiot-looking look and said, "Are these crazy people in the village the same idiots as you? If you leave the village and think something is wrong, you can come in again. As for them in such a hurry to find that mirror? If you held his hand just now, you would only harm yourself."
I didn't know whether what Xiao Rui said was true or false, but now I had no choice. I sighed and said, "What should I do next?"
Xiao Rui said: "Go and find that piece of fragment."
I knew she must be talking about Shanshan. As for how to seize the fragments and what impact it will have on Shanshan after taking the fragments, I didn't even dare to think about it. I knew that it must be a more difficult choice, should I choose me or Shanshan? Perhaps it is only at that time that I know my true thoughts.
