In Li Yue's room in the old house, except for a few weak screams and the sound of gusty wind, he heard no other sounds.
This made me a little surprised.
He also thought that some strange things might happen in the old house.
Unexpectedly, it was peaceful.
"Li Yue, what do you think of this letter delivery mission?"
Yang Jian suddenly asked in a low voice.
Li Yue was stunned for a moment, then said casually:
"What do you mean by opinion?"
"I always feel that this letter is not necessarily really meant for the old man in the lobby." Yang Jian was silent for a moment, and then said:
"Although it seems now that only the old man can receive mail in this old house, there may also be something unclean in the locked room next door;
Moreover, the supernatural bus may pass by here again in seven days, and maybe a ghost will get off by then.
The information we have now is really too little, and there are still several days left, so there are too many possibilities that could happen."
After listening to Yang Jian's words, Li Yue couldn't help but nodded.
If Li Yue hadn't known the goal of this letter delivery mission in advance, he would have felt that Yang Jian's analysis was correct.
It's even very reasonable.
After Li Yue was silent for a while, he finally said:
"Do you still remember the letter delivery at Mingyue Community in Dachuan City?"
Yang Jian didn't know why Li Yue suddenly mentioned the letter delivery mission, but he still nodded in response:
"Of course I remember."
"Then you should still remember that the last place where you received the letter was just an empty room. Judging from that mission, do you think sending the letter itself is really that important?"
After Li Yue finished speaking, he looked at Yang Jian quietly, with a strange look in his eyes.
After Yang Jian heard this, he suddenly fell silent.
A thoughtful expression suddenly appeared on his face.
Yang Jian began to recall the process of delivering letters to Mingyue Community, and even the process of delivering letters several times before.
Soon, Yang Jian's eyes showed a look of surprise.
He suddenly discovered something that he had not noticed during these several times of sending letters.
Yang Jian immediately looked at Li Yue.
Seeing Yang Jian's face, Li Yue knew that the other party had reacted, and then nodded and said:
"It seems that you have also noticed that the letter delivery task arranged by the post office, what the messenger really needs to do is not the final person to whom the letter is sent, but the process of delivering the letter."
Having said this, Li Yue looked back out the window again, and his voice continued to reach Yang Jian's ears:
"Just like this time, the ghost post office asked us to come to this old house to deliver letters. If it was really just for us to deliver the letters, there would be no need for us to come here seven days in advance.
So the real purpose of the Ghost Post Office is to let us spend seven days in this old house to accomplish something."
Li Yue didn't understand this at first.
That is to say, as the number of sending letters increased, Li Yue became aware of it.
Especially after the letter delivery mission in Mingyue Community, Li Yue was basically certain.
As for what the post office wanted these couriers to do, Li Yue had some vague guesses in his mind.
"But how can the post office guarantee that we will obey our orders?"
Although Yang Jian also felt that Li Yue's analysis made sense, he was also a little confused.
After hearing his words, Li Yue showed a mysterious smile, then shook his head and said:
"This is the genius of the Ghost Post Office. What it wants us to do is what we must do, so naturally we cannot refuse."
As soon as these words came out, the doubtful look in Yang Jian's eyes became more serious.
Seeing this, Li Yue could only continue to explain:
"For example, in our letter delivery mission this time, the ghost post office asked us to deliver the letter on the seventh day, so we must survive here for seven days.
In order to survive, we have to make some responses, and this is what the Ghost Post Office needs."
At this moment, Yang Jian's eyes suddenly showed a look of surprise.
He also realized that the ghost post office was using conspiracy to drive these messengers.
As long as people like them want to survive in this strange place, they will fall into the conspiracy unconsciously.
Even if they knew this, there was nothing they could do.
Because all messengers don't want to die.
But Yang Jian was even more curious about what the post office wanted them to do during these seven days.
Regarding this issue, Li Yue has some thoughts in his mind.
Based on the information he knew, he suspected that the post office arranged for them to come here this time just to complete all the rituals of the first seven days.
Seven rituals, seven days, the first seven rebirths.
This is interconnected.
This is for the final return of Zhang Dong’s soul.
But Li Yue also had some puzzlements in his heart.
Li Yue didn't know whether the ultimate purpose of the Ghost Post Office was to help Zhang Dong or to stop Zhang Dong.
The first seven souls are obviously a plot that was already prepared before Zhang Dong's death.
After the arrival of these messengers, in order to survive until the seventh day, they can only follow Zhang Dong's layout and complete a series of things.
From this point of view, it does seem to have helped Zhang Dong.
But according to the original work, Zhang Dong did return to his soul on the seventh day.
And it’s not the resurrection of the evil ghost that everyone thought.
But after Yang Jian delivered the letter from the ghost post office to the returned soul Zhang Dong, Zhang Dong's condition changed.
It seems that he has resurrected from a special alien state and become a ghost again.
This seems to be stopping Zhang Dong again.
Because without this last incident, Zhang Dong would probably be resurrected and become a special existence with Zhang Dong's consciousness.
"We still have too little information, we only have a partial understanding of many things, and our analysis is not accurate."
Li Yue couldn't help but rubbed his brow.
Perhaps only by thoroughly mastering the ghost post office can we understand all these things.
Now we can only take one step at a time.
When Li Yue was thinking, Yang Jian was also thinking.
Compared to Li Yue, he knew less information, so he had more doubts than Li Yue.
Yang Jian took a deep breath and continued:
"The old man in the lobby on the first seven days will most likely be resurrected as a demon, so the first seven days will be the most ferocious day in the ancient house, and it may be possible to wipe out everyone here, including me.
So don’t think too much now, our main goal right now is to spend the next seven days safely.”
Li Yue heard a hint of worry and fear in Yang Jian's words.
"Don't just focus on the seventh day. Don't forget that seven-day soul recovery is a process. That is to say, unknown dangers may appear every day in the following days."
Although Li Yue knew more things, he didn't plan to tell them for the time being.
Because now is the first day of the first seven souls.
There will be changes in this old house soon, and Yang Jian will naturally notice something from these changes.
This is far more convincing than Li Yue's dry words.
