"The world where the ghost town is located?"
Li Re's eyes moved slightly and he glanced at her, showing a little surprise.
Lu Baixi also tilted her head.
One month's time.
This was also her first time setting foot into the copy world she was monitoring!
at the same time.
On a busy street, in front of a newspaper and bookstore, a middle-aged man in a long gown and a gray beard walked out of the door with a black umbrella under his arm. He looked up at the sky as if he had sensed something, as if he could sense a familiar breath...
"Is that guy here again?"
The man couldn't help but mutter, "Did you feel it too?"
Behind him, a middle-aged woman with a dignified face but pale skin, who was only visible to him, appeared silently. The figure of the evil spirit made people who came and went in front of the bookstore feel a chill on their backs for some reason, so they tightened their clothes and quickened their pace to move away.
However, the figure of the evil ghost appeared very quickly and disappeared very quickly as well.
That's when.
Someone in the newspaper called out to the man, "Mr. Luo Song, you didn't write your name on this strange story you wrote?"
"How about coming up with a name on the spot?"
The middle-aged man with fluttering beard turned his head to look at the boss behind the counter and thought for a moment.
"Just call..."
"The Records of the Spiritual Official, right?"
"The way of heaven is out of balance, and resentful ghosts are everywhere, but there are spiritual officials who can protect all living things!"
Leave this message.
Luo Song tucked the black umbrella under his arm and walked away quickly, as if he was in a hurry to meet someone.
Chapter 307: Meeting a strange man again, the injustice will be settled
Because this time entering the dungeon world was not done directly through Paradise, neither Li Re nor Lu Baixi received the dungeon mission issued by Paradise in the first place - this was probably one of the powers of the Court Inspector.
Looking at the endless desolate world in front of him, and hearing the words "ghost town" uttered by Li Re, Lu Baixi was slightly stunned and suddenly widened his eyes...
"Ghost town?"
"Yes, it's the ghost town you're thinking of - the paradise dungeon we first experienced, and the ghost town that has now become my personal exclusive dungeon."
Li Re glanced at the girl beside him and saw her responding. He could be very sure of this. After all, the 'ghost town' was inside his body at the moment, and that real feeling could not be faked.
And after the initial surprise, Li Re finally clarified many confusions that he had not paid much attention to before but did exist. He thought to himself that it was no wonder that the previous 'Ghost Princess' could find him so accurately when he was just promoted to a bronze-level player. It turned out that the dungeon world she monitored was the first dungeon they had experienced. The moment he became a player in Paradise, she had set her eyes on him, and wanted him to become her successor!
"...Could that guy be hiding in the dark and watching me carry out the mission?" Thinking of this, Li Re touched his chin inexplicably and thought that he could use this as a test if he had the chance to meet the 'Ghost Princess' next time.
Seeing Li Re's expression, Lu Baixi thought that A Re was probably planning something bad again...
That's when.
A clear and pleasant voice suddenly sounded behind them: "There are a lot of 'ghosts' here."
"Miss Xinggongyue?" Lu Baixi subconsciously looked back and was slightly stunned when she saw the figure appearing behind Li Re.
The guardian spirit of the girl in the black dress looked at her with a long knife and an ancient sword in hand, blinked her scarlet eyes, and said expressionlessly, "Good morning, Miss Lu Baixi."
"Good morning." Lu Baixi responded with a smile.
Soon Xing Gongyue looked at Li Re in front of her, her pretty face showing no emotion as usual.
Li Re happened to look back and meet her gaze:
"It seems you feel it too."
"Here...or rather, in this world, there are a lot of 'ghosts' - maybe this is why this world is a 'copy'?" Li Re said this, as if answering Lu Baixi's confusion.
At the end, he added: "However, we need to see the civilized society of this world with our own eyes to know for sure."
At this moment, the time in this copy world was exactly in the morning. The bright morning sun shone all over the fields, casting colorful red light among the lush vegetation.
It was also at this moment that Li Re finished speaking.
The surrounding scenery suddenly began to become blurred as if there was a mist. Lu Baixi knew that this was one of Li Re's supernatural powers, a 'ghost fog' that spread very quickly and could be used to move quickly.
Just as Lu Baixi reacted, she suddenly felt her body shaking the next second. Li Re reached out and hugged her, holding her back with one hand and hooking her soft and delicate black silk legs with the other hand, and picked her up as a princess.
"Hmm..." Lu Baixi slid sideways into Li Re's arms without struggling but just widened her eyes slightly. Knowing that she didn't have the ability to move at extremely fast speeds, she seemed very submissive.
Just quickly.
She saw the guardian spirit girl behind Li Re also stretched out her hands, pressed her chest against Li Re's back softly, and exerted a little force with her slender arms - her legs flew into the air and "hugged" Li Re up!
"..."
This way of flying...is quite special.
Lu Baixi couldn't help but think so.
"Laugh if you want to. I think it's funny too." Li Re glanced at the girl in his arms and said nonchalantly, "Who made me a 'Gudola'?"
"Pfft."
Lu Baixi finally couldn't help laughing, and laughed very happily!
...
soon.
After passing through the jungle and wilderness, Li Re and Lu Baixi finally saw some people - it was a county town. People were coming and going under the tall ancient city gate. In front of the gate, there were soldiers in military uniforms guarding and checking the passers-by. The lush sunlight fell on everyone's face, reflecting an inexplicable feeling of haste and panic.
The ghost fog dissipated.
Li Re stopped outside the city.
Xinggong Yue gently put them down.
Lu Baixi didn't understand, but didn't say anything. She just watched Li Re staring at the city in front of him... His brows flickered slightly, and his spiritual eyes opened as small as possible, and the scenery in his sight changed accordingly.
A city gate is still a city gate.
People are still people.
But on the tall gate wall, there were strange baby-like figures crawling all over, the roadside was also scattered with broken corpses, and the deep mud pools were bubbling with scarlet blood bubbles. With the perception of yin and yang, Li Re directly saw through the true face of this world.
"Sure enough, there are ghosts everywhere——"
"Let's go to the city and take a look."
This time I didn't use ghost fog to move.
Xing Gongyue's figure floated behind Li Re and slowly turned into a spirit and disappeared. Li Re held Lu Baixi's hand with ease.
Lu Baixi nodded, and her beautiful face became slightly solemn.
They passed through the heavily guarded sentry post at the city gate and entered the city...
"Hey, have you heard? A few people were killed in Dongshikou yesterday. It's a pity that I didn't get blood on my hands when I went to play. That thing can really ward off evil spirits!"
"What's the use? Killing people and getting bloody every day means people will die every day, right?"
"Oh, this is the way the world is - I even doubt if there really are ghosts."
"Can ghosts be scarier than warlords?"
"..."
People were coming and going on the street, and such sounds could be heard from time to time.
A man with a lame leg walked by, and a starving ghost held his thigh and kept gnawing at it, but the man was completely unaware.
There are also people who look dejected and dazed, but they don't feel that a ghost is pressing down on their souls.
There was also a butcher standing behind the stall, holding a butcher knife with a menacing look, ready to chop people down if the situation got bad. He also had a ghost in him - the ghost was like a mosquito, constantly screaming in his ear, disturbing him...
"Run! The warlord is coming!"
I don’t know who suddenly said this.
With a loud bang, the bustling crowd scattered, and both the people and the ghosts disappeared.
Li Re held Lu Baixi's hand and stood by the roadside, watching this scene and thinking that people are indeed scarier than ghosts. He glanced at the "army" that appeared at the end of the street, took a step back and let them pass by, but he couldn't help but narrow his eyes and thought that this was really a "turbulent time" like the background of the Republic of China!
Lu Baixi watched from the side and never said a word.
He just frowned his delicate brows.
Seeing the big from the small.
This world... is definitely wrong!
Li Re closed his third eye and came to the final conclusion: "The yin and yang of this world have been unbalanced, there are ghosts everywhere, and every living person is possessed by ghosts!"
"No wonder there are hundreds of thousands of evil spirits in the ghost town!" He had been surprised by this number before, but now it seems that hundreds of thousands of evil spirits are just a drop in the bucket for this world.
no doubt,
This is a badly damaged world.
Lu Baixi felt choked when she heard this! She possessed both superpowers and spiritual powers, and she was well aware of the strangeness and horror of spiritual existence...
Li Re continued, "However, it is precisely because of the imbalance of yin and yang that the number of evil spirits in this world, although large, is generally kept below the normal level, so as not to breed terrifying 'ghosts and gods'."
That's good.
What a pity!
Li Re thought so, feeling both fortunate and disappointed - fortunate that although there were many ghosts in this world, they did not seem to be too dangerous, disappointed that there was no existence that could threaten him, but most of it was justified!
He didn't expect the world to give him many surprises.
"Indeed."
Another voice said this.
Lu Baixi looked in the direction of the sound, and saw a figure walking towards him from the other side of the street. He was dressed in a long robe, thin and with a long fluttering beard, looking like an immortal. But what really caught Lu Baixi's attention was the figure vaguely emerging behind him... the evil ghost that was following him!
A homegrown 'ghost rider'!
"It seems that my previous perception was correct...you have returned to this world again!" He walked over through the windy and sandy streets.
"Don't make it sound like I've come back from the dead." Li Re responded as he watched the man approaching: "And you're still alive?"
"You don't have much time left, but you can still survive for a while." The middle-aged man responded without any concern, and then asked: "Who is this... Never mind, I won't ask questions that I shouldn't ask. After all, you are already very mysterious."
He didn't look at Lu Baixi beside him, nor did he dare to look.
He only vaguely sensed the extraordinaryness of the beautiful girl standing next to Li Re - the kind of beauty that could be felt even without looking was a deadly threat in itself. Even though Lu Baixi was able to control herself now, she was still an extremely dangerous existence for people with keen perception and spirituality.
"So what are you doing back here?" the middle-aged man asked, "Could it be that another place like a ghost town has appeared?"
His face was full of vigilance, and that was why he hurried here!
“Don’t make me sound like a disaster…” Li Re said speechlessly: “Maybe I’m here to save your world?”
"You are indeed stronger than before... But this world has been through a century of war and chaos. The Divine Land is in chaos, plague is rampant, nine out of ten houses are empty, and there is too much resentment. Even with your ability, it is not so easy to save it."
The middle-aged man shook his head in disbelief.
"Well...I really can't do it, at least not now."
It’s not a lack of ability.
Rather, the scope of the ability is not large enough.
Unless this world also has a psychic tide, or a special product like 'Jianmu' that was once powerful but later became extremely decadent, connecting the entire world.
Otherwise, even Li Re's ghost fog would not be able to spread to the entire world.
His spiritual fire couldn't do that either.
Excluding all external support, the limit for a bronze-level player is to influence a city with a territory of several hundred miles.
"But at least for now, there is one thing I can still do!"
The middle-aged man was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then he saw Li Re in front of him suddenly stretched out his hand, and the familiar dark green flame flew out - setting the entire county on fire.
Ghosts all over the city were howling.
