The moon is at the top of the sky, and there are few stars. Large dark clouds hover above Changlong's apartment, covering a few stars, and slowly engulfing the small half of the bright moon.
Qin Anyi held a cigarette in her mouth and was not in a hurry to light the tobacco. The phantom limb appeared and passed over the wall. The two fingers of her food and middle finger tapped rhythmically and uninterruptedly on the wall.
Although the walls were repainted, it was difficult to cover up the stains underneath.
As an immovable cultural relic, Changlong Apartment still plays the role of the cheapest rental house in Shanghai and Shanghai.
He took off his headphones and listened carefully to the chewing sounds lurking in the dark.
He quietly approached, and then stretched out the materialized phantom limb. The dark red arm dyed the moonlight red, and the phantom limb was about to pierce into the dark corner.
The sound of chewing continued, becoming more intensive and chaotic, as if there were tens of thousands of mouths eating at their own frequency.
Then phantom pain came from the phantom limb, and when the phantom limb was withdrawn again, the phantom limb was also covered with gaps and teeth marks.
"Can you even chew on the phantom limb?"
Qin Anyi could feel that although the part of the phantom limb that was eaten still existed, it was constantly maintaining its existence through circulation. In other words, the part that was eaten was undergoing the process of "digestion".
Then, in the gaps between the walls and the debris, a liquid like a "mouth" slowly flowed out, just like the soft dough like wet pancake in Salvador Dali's "The Eternity of Memory"
It's like a melting alarm clock.
The black mouth reveals neat and bright white teeth, which are constantly opening and closing up and down, making a clashing sound.
They are like cockroaches.
When you find cockroaches in your home, it means that there are countless disgusting creatures in the dark places that cannot be explored.
Black mouths also flowed out from various debris, and there were these overflowing mouths everywhere in the corridor.
"Oh, this is really...not good."
The tide of lips and white teeth gathered and flowed on the walls, floors, ceilings, and windowsills like army ants, and their targets were only aimed at Qin Anyi, the uninvited guest who suddenly broke in.
If Qin Anyi had no ability to resist, then he would become the food chewed by these mouths.
The total population of Shenhu City is 23 million, and the number of missing people every year accounts for about one thousandth of it. In other words, the number of missing people every year is about 23,000, and among these 23,000 people
, a considerable proportion comes from ghosts.
Just like the ghosts hidden in Changlong Apartment, they have a wide range of diets and are the embodiment of "famine".
Otherwise Qin Anyi wouldn't think Changlong Apartment is very clean.
In a place with a mixed population and a lot of debris like Changlong Apartment, cockroaches and mice are naturally indispensable, but Qin Anyi did not find any mice or cockroaches here.
Because these mouths eat them in the dark to fill their empty "stomach pouches", in a sense, this ghost is more effective than cockroach poison and mousetraps.
However, Qin Anyi is also in the recipe.
Black, sticky, amorphous lips and teeth emerged from visible and invisible directions, and Qin Anyi only had time to cover them with her intact arm.
The crimson light started from the palm of his hand, and then, the crimson bright red light flickered for a moment.
At this moment, it was as if a frame was inserted into a movie or some other animation, a frame of pure crimson, and the fleeting crimson also took away the spreading lips and teeth.
Then he clasped his hands tightly, and the escaping red light made his skin shiny.
This is a controllable supernatural puzzle, the Crimson Queen, and it is also a good thing that Qin Yuelou left to Qin Anyi. Although it is controllable, it cannot be used all the time in a way of fishing.
Because this ability is to dye the [concept] crimson and recycle it, and then strengthen it.
[Concept] is a metaphysical thing. It does not exist as an entity, but it exists widely in any entity and non-entity. Just like one of the concepts of water is flow, when the concept of [flow] is impregnated,
Then this concept is lost, and water cannot flow.
But if all concepts of water are soaked, is this water that has lost all concepts still water?
This question is meaningless, because the water that has lost all concepts is also soaked in crimson and turns into crimson.
[Concept] is a part of [Existence]. After losing all concepts, it will naturally no longer exist.
And the lips and teeth of this part that wanted to eat Qin Anyi were also dyed crimson, returning to their origins and becoming the nutrients to strengthen themselves.
Qin Anyi can naturally continue to use the power of this supernatural puzzle, but using it without restraint will eventually only allow the Scarlet Witch to swallow him up, and he may eventually become an ever-expanding "Crimson".
In other words, if no one stops it, the entire universe will turn "crimson". Of course, this is only theoretical, although it is very simple to achieve this theory.
Therefore, for the sake of his own existence, as well as for the sake of world peace and the safety of the universe, Qin An recalled using this supernatural puzzle responsibly and sparingly.
After suppressing the aftermath of the red light, Qin Anyi felt that things were getting serious.
The phantom limb is indeed very strong, but this strength is only limited to a single body. This is the first time he has encountered such a large number of ghosts that can even be said to be everywhere.
And he didn't find the pattern, but fortunately he could look for the pattern.
This law is hidden in the corners that were buried in the past.
The Battle of Shanghai and Shanghai lasted for three months. Within three months, the number of refugees in Changlong Apartment changed from nearly three thousand to just over two hundred.
Both the invaders and the compatriots who resisted the invasion suffered heavy casualties. Even if they could recapture Shenhu, it would be a tragic victory. The remaining troops brought supplies, but they kept silent about the more than 2,000 people who disappeared.
This matter is a secret taboo that cannot be told. Qin Anyi is looking for the pattern through the dual perspectives of "past and present".
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! He carefully avoided stepping into the inevitable darkness and tried his best to find a spacious foothold, but the feeling of being spied on stuck to every part of his body.
Just like beef cattle, different parts of meat are classified into various names, and these different parts also have a considerable audience.
He is the beef cow ready for slaughter.
And he must be cautious, because dual perspectives mean that the environmental information processed by the brain has doubled. If he is not careful, some parts of his body may be missing.
At the same time, he also had to feel the current status of the swallowed phantom limb fragments.
The phantom limb fragments are still circulating and not being digested, but it can be felt that the fragments are circulating, but it is difficult to grasp.
Because the fragments of the phantom limb kept jumping around inside Changlong's apartment during perception.
The lips and teeth seem to form an invisible and more abstract ant nest extending in all directions in Changlong Apartment, but the final destination of the food is either the "belly" of the "ants" or the food warehouse in the ant nest.
A headless fly generally doesn't know where to go, and can only avoid being pursued from the dark while waiting for the final landing point, and he is ready to destroy that landing point.
The birth of ghosts cannot be separated from humans, so the concept of humans will also be applied to ghosts.
Eating will lead to digestion, and digestion will only occur in the stomach.
Qin Anyi's guess was that he needed to find their "stomachs" and then destroy them to "starve" their lips and teeth.
I don't know how much time passed, Qin Anyi rubbed his swollen temples,
He has seen several horrific scenes of cannibalism,
In addition to the hair, even the bones were stewed until they were bitten into pieces, and then chewed into bones and fell into the stomach.
But the ghost lurking in the dark is also quietly devouring people who are unaware of it.
Perhaps for this ghost, eating [the murderer who ate itself] is also a kind of revenge.
Revenge rages on until finally discovered by those paying attention.
The atmosphere in Changlong Apartment, which was already filled with panic, became even more depressing.
When there are many people, one or two, or even a dozen, is just a small part. But when there are few people, this missing part becomes extremely conspicuous.
At first, people thought that they were out looking for food because they didn't want to eat people but were too hungry, but they were eventually shot and killed. Some people even lamented the lack of food sources.
After all, when drawing lots becomes a condition that determines life and death, the more people who draw lots, the better.
"One Thousand and Twelve..." Qin Anyi has seen cannibalism for the 1012th time.
But he still couldn't find the pattern of the ghost.
Because that thing appears quickly, preys quickly, and leaves quickly, the amount of information that can be obtained is very small.
At present, the amount of information he can list is only five pieces.
1Lip and Teeth are group-like ghosts.
2They hide in gaps and dark corners.
3They do not actively eat inorganic matter.
4They currently do not attack other residents.
5 Other residents seemed not to notice the movement outside, and no one even came in or out.
Qin Anyi found loopholes in the five pieces of information, and then he stopped where he was, with a dangerous and bold idea appearing in his mind.
"Why don't you follow the instructions I gave you to find the supernatural puzzle I left for you?" The voice of the ancient Emperor of Heaven came from the water mirror.
The white-haired Taoist lowered his eyes and looked down at the embarrassed Qin Anyi calmly.
"Because I want to try to solve these things without relying on you." Qin Anyi responded.
"I advise you to follow the preset path I gave you, otherwise." The ancient Emperor ordered in an unkind and tactful manner.
"Stop, stop, no one is qualified to choose which path to take for others. In the same way, when a person chooses a certain path without the interference of others, he should also pay for the consequences." Qin Anyi held a cigarette in his mouth and put out the cigarette.
ignite.
Curls of light blue smoke floated out, along with the stench of raw smoke.
"So, I advise you not to meddle in your own business. The relationship between us is not a master-slave relationship. We are just a cooperative relationship under the same position. You are not qualified to tell me what to do. Of course, it is okay to follow your presets, but
I don’t intend to choose it before I’m desperate. After all, the supernatural puzzle piece you gave me, the Crimson Queen, once I realized how scary this thing is, I felt that you are not a good person anymore.”
"Oh? How do you say this?" The ancient emperor looked at Qin Anyi with a look of contempt.
"You don't care about human life or death. You only care about whether you can replace the source. You don't care about the impact caused by replacing the source. But I am different. I can't ignore those impacts." Qin Anyi took a deep breath.
cigarette.
Then red light bursts out from the surface of its body.
The lips and teeth only eat organic matter, so use red light to briefly wrap the concept of "organic matter" in the middle finger part of yourself to cut off the concept of "organic matter" in yourself.
In this way, he becomes an "inorganic substance".
If he is not careful, his "organic concept" will be stained with crimson, so he only limits the partition to the middle finger, so that if something goes wrong, he will only lose one middle finger.
"But fortunately, I succeeded. The time I can persist is about ten minutes. Leave sixty seconds aside. I only have nine minutes of safety time." Qin Anyi announced his conclusion.
The ancient Emperor was silent for a moment: "Then let me see how powerful you are to support your bold and dangerous operation."
In this way, Qin Anyi felt that the fragments of the phantom limb finally landed in a censer-shaped house standing in the middle square under the courtyard of Changlong Apartment.
"I should have explored the incense burner room as soon as possible." Qin Anyi felt a little regretful.
So he stood on the aisle fence and jumped down steadily.
Then, during the fall, the phantom limb firmly grasped the fence on the next floor.
The dual perspectives in the eyes also slide along with the descent. What the left eye sees is the past, while the right eye sees the present.
In the past, hungry people could be seen through the open windows eating meat and offal around the steaming boiler and the firelight.
At that moment, bursts of snoring came from the dim room with the doors and windows closed.
Qin Anyi also descended the stairs as quickly as possible from the fifth floor to the roof of a private car parked in the square. His feet left some slight dents. Then he thought for a moment and stepped on the roof and hood of the private car.
Using a flashlight, we moved to the top of another vehicle.
In the patio square of Changlong Apartment, there are a large number of low- and medium-priced private cars parked. This is a square, but it is also an atypical parking lot.
The lips and teeth will hide and lurk in the dark, and the same goes for the gap between the car bottom and the vehicle. If the dark place is given visibility with light, then the dark place will lose the meaning of lurking.
In this way, Qin Anyi stepped on the vehicle and arrived at the door of the incense burner room.
Outside the incense burner room, as the name suggests, it looks like an incense burner. Rather than a room, it looks more like a small temple with cement piers. However, the small temple does not enshrine any statues of gods. Instead, three metal statues are erected in the incense burner.
"fragrant".
There are also rows of numbers engraved on the top of the incense burner, and the final signature is - Xuanyuan Zhenwu.
"This is really... interesting." The ancient Heavenly Emperor exclaimed in admiration.
"What can make an ancient emperor like you admire?" Qin Anyi deliberately added an emphasis on "admire".
"This is a radio code left to you by Xuanyuan Zhenwu, using his own encryption method." If you like It's Liaozhai, Not Cthulhu, please collect it: (www.sodu777.net) It's Liaozhai, Not Cthulhu Search and Read
