The Mysterious Recovery of the Forgotten World

Chapter 250 Change of Mindset
the next day.

On the main road of Okawa City.

With the end of the ghost borrowing incident, the city that was once full of despair finally began to gradually return to normal.

However, this iconic road running through Okawa City was blocked at this time.

The city did not immediately resume daily life, but fell into a state of shutdown.

Because the aftermath work is not completely over.

now.

On the main road, there is a guard with guns every ten meters, and all the entrances leading here are also guarded.

Trucks with sealed back compartments kept driving past the road.

Vaguely, you can smell the rancid smell emanating from the car.

All the people in the car were the victims of the incident of borrowing ghosts.

No one knew how many people died in the incident of borrowing ghosts, and Li Leping didn't know which truck he handled today.

No one thought that one day, the value of human life could be quantified by the number of trucks.

The sun shone on his sickly pale face, unable to give him any warmth.

Li Leping was alone like this, took out a small chair, sat on the side of the road, exuded a strange cold aura, and watched the trucks pass by in front of him.

Every truck full of corpses passed in front of him, which meant that some people in this world were erased from existence.

Their existence will disappear from the memory of those who are alive, as if they have never been to this world.

In one's life, there will be three deaths.

The first time is at exhalation which is biological death.

The second time is at a funeral, which is the death of social identity.

And the third time is after the last person in this world who remembers you dies, which is the final death.

At this moment, what Li Leping has to do is to let these people skip the second death and directly usher in the final.

It's cruel, but that's the reality.

For the dead, the cause of death must be covered up by the truth, because only in this way can the living live better in the world, and will not be tortured by the pain in their hearts and nightmares while sleeping.

If you don't remember, there will be no pain.

"Detective Li."

At this moment, Chen Zhong came over.

Chen Zhong, who has always been calm and stable, giving people a masculine feeling, seems to have lost his mind at this moment. He doesn't know where his former energy has gone. He walked over with his eyes swollen.

Apparently, somewhere no one knew, he had cried a lot, a heart-rending cry.

There is no joy of surviving a catastrophe, only the pain of family destruction.

But even so, his pace is still so firm.

"What's up."

Li Leping didn't turn his head to look at him, but looked at the truck passing by in front of him.

In fact, the powers of the Forgotten can affect the corpses inside the car without even looking.

However, Li Leping didn't know how to look at Chen Zhong.

Zhang Xiaoxiao entrusted his family to him, but his family was murdered in his villa, and even the body was mutilated by the explosion.

Chen Zhong also entrusted his family to him and asked him to escape from Dachuan City with his wife and children.

As a result, it was a step late.

Similar things happened to him again.

He missed another appointment.

Although the emotions of the ghost master are constantly decreasing under the erosion of the ghosts, their mentality is gradually becoming numb and indifferent.

However, it has been less than two months since Li Leping became a ghost master.

Moreover, the lack of emotion does not mean that he has no emotion at all.

As long as a person is conscious, he must have emotions.

It's just that with the increase of experience and the separation of life and death, people will naturally become numb and become accustomed to it, and become indifferent to many things.

It's like helping an old lady. If you don't help for the first time, seeing the old lady fall powerlessly on the road, you may still have thoughts of self-blame in your heart.

However, if you have seen the old lady fall ten times, and you have not stepped forward to help ten times in a row.

Then, when the No. 11 old lady fell down, you would naturally feel that you should keep an eye on the side, and there is no need to go up to help.

Habits become natural, which leads to a shift in mindset.

But there is also a prerequisite for being cold-eyed.

For example, the old lady who fell down that you saw No. 11 is your old mother with gray hair.

Do you help?

The truth is this truth.

If you have to call the compassion for those around you when they leave, call it superfluous or the Holy Mother.

amount……

You're right……

In the face of irrelevant strangers, Li Leping can certainly stand aside.

However, in the face of the death of the people around him, he can neither turn a blind eye to it, nor can it be commonplace.

However, he will not be immersed in the death of these people, unable to extricate himself.

Not to mention self-blame, falling into an incomprehensible vicious circle of self-blame.

This world is like this, people are dying every day, newborns are born every day, the living will continue to live, and the dead will sleep forever.

just now.

Looking at Li Leping who didn't want to look at him, Chen Zhong didn't say anything, but sat on the floor, just beside Li Leping.

He knew that Li Leping had tried his best, but in the face of some things, he was often helpless.

He knows that Li Leping can save the city, but there are people who cannot be saved.

Right now, Li Leping didn't say a word, counting the passing trucks like counting sheep before going to bed.

After experiencing the baptism of borrowing ghosts, many people died, but more people survived by luck.

Everyone has grown up and witnessed the ugliness and glory of human nature in the midst of catastrophe.

Li Leping has also grown.

In the past, he was trapped by his understanding of Yang Jian's experience, which made him deeply influenced by Yang Jian's thinking logic, which led to his behavior and handling methods somewhat similar to Yang Jian's.

However, after experiencing this incident of borrowing ghosts, his mentality also changed.

The state of mind becomes calm, and the behavior is honed to be calmer and calmer.

He is also tired, and now he doesn't want to fight for any benefits like Yang Jian did.

Li Leping is not Yang Jian. In this world, Li Leping is like a lonely ghost, without any relatives or friends.

He is not like Yang Jian, Yang Jian has a mother, Zhang Wei, Wang Shanshan, Miao Xiaoshan, let alone Jiang Yan and Zhang Liqin.

Yang Jian had someone to protect, so he had to live a very selfish life, and he had to live a ruthless life. He didn't talk about big truths with others, and only focused on protecting his own interests.

Because he knew he couldn't die.

Once he dies, everyone around him will be liquidated.

From earning money for my mother's retirement, to building a safe house later, taking down the Shangtong Building, and setting up my own team of ghost masters, all are to protect the people around me while keeping myself alive.

But Li Leping is different. From the first day he came to this world, he has been wandering alone.

Jiang Cheng, Fang Jun, Zhang Xiaoxiao, Tang Ziyi...

These people are passers-by in his life, fleeting.

He didn't have any worries, and he didn't have any beliefs to support him to persevere in this world.

Now, the only thing he can do is to protect Okawa City.

There is no why.

Just because he couldn't take a step back.

If the incident of borrowing ghosts broke out in Dachang City, and Yang Jian had ghost fire lanterns in his hand, he would definitely use the lanterns to escape from the blockade of ghost clouds.

Once, Li Leping also wanted to escape, but he still gave up.

This is the difference between him and Yang Jian.

Yang Jian will think about the future and talk about it later.

But in Li Leping's view, there are only zero or countless times when things happen.

Once he escapes this time, then, when he faces difficulties in the future, he will avoid the second and third times.

Then, after escaping again and again, I will eventually escape to a dead end, with nowhere to escape.

At that time, death will come, and the end of death is already doomed...

In Li Leping's view, if the ending is doomed, it's better to end it the first time.

It's a little faster to get rid of it...

Now, on the side of the main road, two men just sat on the side of the road, silent, watching the cold machines passing by in front of them.

"The higher-ups plan to let me take over Tang Ziyi's position and become your liaison officer." Chen Zhong said after an unknown amount of time passed.

"Okay, I have no objection." Li Leping said.

Whether it is a liaison officer or an operator, it can be arranged by the headquarters.

Anyway, after the incident of borrowing ghosts, Okawa City should be able to stabilize for a while.

This is the only benefit after the incident broke out.

Because judging from the second confrontation, Borrowing Ghosts hadn't mastered any new supernatural powers during Li Leping's absence.

This shows that there are no other supernatural events in Dachuan City for the time being, otherwise they will definitely be targeted by ghosts.

Of course, the old city is an exception.

The old man living in 301 of Mingyue Community is completely different from the ghost masters of this era.

"Well, then I will contact the higher authorities later." Chen Zhong said.

"Whatever." Li Leping said.

The two fell into a situation where they had nothing to talk about again, so they could only continue to sit on the side of the road, getting along as the person in charge of Dachuan City and the liaison officer of Dachuan City.

Time passes little by little.

On the various roads in Dachuan City, there is still not much human smoke.

Many citizens just snapped up the supplies in the supermarket during a fixed period of time, and then returned home again, not daring to go out of the house at all.

Their memories have not been forgotten by Li Leping. The horrible encounters these days made them dare not step out of the house at all to prevent encountering some leftover horrors.

"It's almost there, that's all for today."

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Li Leping glanced at the time, and then said to Chen Zhong beside him, "Get off work."

It will soon be six o'clock in the evening, and he needs to continue to deal with the sleepwalking out of control.

As for this main road, according to the plan, it will be blocked for another period of time.

After all, there are too many dead people, and it will take time to collect them one by one and then transport them here, and they need to be divided into batches.

"Yes." Chen Zhong also stood up at this moment and said.

Looking at Li Leping who had opened the door and was sitting in the car, Chen Zhong added: "If you need anything, please call me at any time."

"it is good."

Without saying anything, Li Leping started the car and drove to the villa where he lived.

Although he owns the ghost domain, he will not use the ghost smoke at will if it is not necessary.

Although under the suppression of the Forgotten Ghost, Ghost Smoke is in a peaceful state, but Li Leping doesn't like the feeling of being surrounded by thick smoke, especially the thick smoke will create a relatively dark environment, which is tantamount to constantly Touched the ghostly instinct of the sleepwalking ghost.

Another day passed without incident.
