The sun was setting near dusk, and the time was inconsistent. In the yard, thousands of Lin Lin's hands were pulling up the plum tree.
The plum on the tree swayed, the tree roots were unearthed, and a white skeleton began to struggle continuously. But after struggling for a while, it suddenly turned into a pile of ashes and scattered in the soil. It was just a ghost slave, but it was dead.
After stuffing the plum tree into the painting, Lin Qian looked at the mud puddle on the ground, snorted, put the painting away, and took out another painting.
He cast his eyes on the ordinary well with a lid on it:
"The well is a good thing. It has some special supernatural powers. Let's take it back. Later, we will get some water from the ghost lake to put it in. This is how we complete a well to hold evil ghosts."
When he came to the well, he opened the lid and saw a skeletal hand with only a little flesh remaining on the edge of the well.
This is a ghost, a real ghost, not a ghost slave in the well. Look at this ghost leaning out.
Lin Qian looked calm, reached out to pick up the thing, and swallowed it in one gulp. At the same time, the two ghost slaves who were still in the well disappeared without even seeing Lin Qian's face.
After cleaning up the miscellaneous fish in the well, Lin Qian stared at this well with special supernatural powers, his eyes flashed, he reached out and grabbed the eaves of the well, and gave it a gentle squeeze.
Only the sound of water splashing was heard, and the water well was slowly pumped up from the soil by Lin Qian.
Wow, wow, wow
The water in the well flowed and fell from the bottom of the well. In less than a moment, a well of several meters and made of bluestone appeared in Lin Qian's eyes.
Put this well into the painting, and the well will enter the painting and automatically take root in the soil. In this way, a quiet well will emerge in the painting.
Lin Qian looked at all this and nodded, very satisfied. He looked down at the deep pit in front of him. The water was surging inside, and the water level was continuously decreasing, intruding into the surrounding soil.
This well water is not supernatural, it is just ordinary water. Otherwise, according to Lin Qian's character, he would never keep it.
"I've finished collecting the things in the yard. Why don't you go into the house and have a look? This is the village chief's house. Maybe there are some good things."
Lin Qian thought this and thought it was a good idea, so she turned around and walked towards those rooms.
ten minutes later……
Lin Qian walked out of the room calmly, with some disappointment in his eyes:
"I'm so poor, I don't have any supernatural items..."
Shaking his head, Lin Qian picked up Coco and put it on his shoulders. He looked up at the sky and frowned. The sky was quickly becoming dark at this time. It is estimated that the entire village will be shrouded in darkness before long.
.
She lowered her head and looked at her phone. It was 5:12, stuck, stuck, stuck. Lin Qian crushed the phone into pieces. This broken phone couldn't even withstand a little supernatural power.
Throwing the remains of the phone aside, he took out the satellite positioning star and looked at the phone. At ten minutes past seven, Lin Qian nodded. This is right.
Putting away the satellite positioning phone, Lin Qian walked towards the gate. It was time to go to the back mountain to have a look. There were probably a lot of ghosts there. After all, there were so many plum trees, and it was impossible that all those buried under the trees were ghost slaves.
By the way, let's see if you can take away the piece of plum tree. If you can, take all of them back. Such delicious plums cannot be wasted.
squeak
Pushing open the door, Lin Qian walked out of the yard. Surrounded by a forest of peach and plum trees, the branches and leaves moved automatically without wind. Looking at all this, Lin Qian smiled and walked to a peach tree. Without hesitation, he reached out and pulled it out.
Get up, put it in the painting, pack it up and take it away.
There were a lot of peach and plum trees around, so Lin Qian didn't mind the trouble and pulled them out one by one. It didn't take much time anyway. Lin Qian pulled them easily, and Coco also enjoyed eating.
Of course, accidents would occasionally occur, such as when pulling out a plum tree, a ghost was entangled under the roots of the tree, but in front of Lin Qian, these were nothing to worry about. He could just swallow it in one gulp. It was no big deal.
Pressure is a good ghost that brings warmth.
After uprooting more than a dozen trees, Lin Qian frowned and looked up at the sky. The sky was completely dark at this moment, and the surrounding peach and plum trees also began to change.
The branches and leaves on the peach tree began to sway violently. I don't know when, but corpses were hung from the peach tree, some old and some young, some men and some women.
There are three or four figures on each peach tree, swaying with the wind, and under the plum tree, white skeletons stretch out their hands from the soil, scrambling to climb up to the ground, which is strange and inexplicable.
When this change occurs, the surroundings have become invisible, darkness and coldness are wandering in it, and weirdness is prevalent.
Lin Qian looked at all this, his heart moved, and he turned to look at the back mountain:
"Have you started? At night in the village, this village shows its true horror."
“What a fun place.”
Looking at the white plums on the plum tree, Lin Qian murmured to himself.
At this moment, several hurried footsteps sounded from behind, a candle with flickering green light appeared in the darkness, and two women and a man were running quickly from the darkness.
Behind them, villagers with numb expressions and empty eyes were walking towards them step by step.
"MD, what's going on? We were chatting well, why did we suddenly turn into a ghost?" A young man cursed breathlessly in the darkness.
"Who knows what is going on? Isn't it just that we don't eat plums? Is this what it is?" Zhao Yunyun said with a look of despair.
"Stop complaining and think of a solution. What should we do next? There are so many ghosts chasing us."
"The candle in my hand can't last much longer. Find a way quickly!" Xia Hanxin said anxiously.
She was almost desperate. She had never seen so many ghosts since she became a ghost controller. She felt that if she couldn't think of any good way, they would be in trouble today...
"What can we do? There are so many ghosts here. What can we do? There is no other choice but to die later."
Zhao Yunyun answered Xia Hanxin's words with a desperate expression. If Xia Hanxin hadn't taken out this strange candle, they might have died long ago.
Lin Qian raised his eyebrows slightly as he listened to the conversation between the three of them. He knew these three people and had met them at the post office.
At that time, he did not kill these three people. Unexpectedly, these three people really liked to seek death and actually followed him.
"Is it because of the post office?"
Lin Qian thought in her eyes that it must be the post office. Otherwise, with the courage and ability of these three people, they would only come here to deliver.
"Forced mail delivery is like a post office."
There were dense footsteps in the darkness, the corpse hanging on the peach tree was shaking slightly, and the bones and skeletons were still crawling out of the soil. Basically wherever there were plum trees, there were bones and skeletons under the roots of the trees.
This is normal. People are buried under the plum tree. What a beautiful legend.
When Liu San, Zhao Yunyun and Xia Hanxin saw the scene around them, their faces turned pale, and their hearts became more and more desperate as they ran away. How come there were more and more ghosts running around?
There were more and more evil spirits around, and the darkness and weirdness became more and more terrifying. Seeing this scene of strange people returning, Zhao Yunyun swallowed his saliva with a pale face.
"Are we going to die? Oh my god, do you think we still have a chance?"
Zhao Yunyun spoke with trembling lips. He was so frightened by this little scene that he started talking nonsense.
"Shut up, shut up, Zhao Yunyun, don't say such depressing words. As long as we don't give up, there is still hope. So what if there are so many ghosts. As long as we persist, maybe we can survive."
"As long as we don't abandon, don't give up, and still have hope in our hearts, we can survive! Believe me, God has a perfect path, and we can't die like this!"
Liu San spoke with a trembling tone. Although what he said was good, looking at his look, it was obvious that he didn't believe it himself.
Xia Hanxin was running out of breath. She didn't believe Liu San's innocent words. Whoever believed such nonsense was a fool.
"Hope, this is not a good thing. Its existence is more terrifying than despair. It will lead you to the abyss step by step, just like now."
Abruptly and directly, a voice sounded in front of the three of them. Their faces were suddenly startled. Xia Hanxin even subconsciously raised the candle, trying to see clearly who was talking in front of them. Of course, it might not be a human, but a ghost.
uncertain.
The candle flickered with a faint green light. Through the candlelight, the three of them saw a figure in front of them, a figure in the lake.
But when Xia Hanxin and the others used the flickering green light of the candle to see the face of the figure in front of them clearly, the three of them shrank violently.
It was that terrifying young man. The moment they saw this young man, the three of them were frightened at first, but then they were delighted. They knew their hope was coming!
"Elder brother, help me!" Zhao Yunyun looked at Lin Qian not far away, opened his mouth, and shouted out such a sentence.
Forehead……
Liu San and Xia Hanxin's expressions suddenly changed. They were thinking how shameless this guy could be, but then Liu San shouted directly:
"Dad, please help! My son is dying!"
Forehead……
Lin Qian:……
Lin Qian's mouth twitched and she patted Coco, who looked confused:
"Don't listen to his nonsense. Dad only has your child, and there are no other children living outside."
After hearing what her father said, the confusion on Coco's face disappeared. She nodded, hugged a big white peach and started eating it. As for the old village chief, oh, no, it should be the ghost who said the peach couldn't be eaten.
If you eat it, you will die.
Haha, in her eyes, things in the world are only judged by whether they are delicious or not. There is no question of whether they can be eaten or not...
Lin Qian stared at the half red candle in Xia Hanxin's hand, her eyes flashing:
"Tell me, where did this candle come from?"
Xia Hanxin and the others quickly ran to Lin Qian. All three of them were panting and their faces were full of panic.
After hearing Lin Qian's question, Xia Hanxin tightened her hand holding the candle, subconsciously not wanting to answer, but when she turned around and saw the scene behind her, she thought it would be better to speak out.
Otherwise, they might have to die here. At this moment, behind them, ghosts with the same appearance as Lin Qian appeared around them, and they immediately ate the ghosts who chased them all the way.
Well, yes, I ate it.
So Xia Hanxin chose to confess after being silent for a while:
"Brother, this candle was given to me by the International Ghost Rider Headquarters. I am currently an Interpol police officer, but it is only temporary and I have not passed the assessment yet."
"This candle was left behind by an official Interpol police officer after his death. I picked it up. The headquarters saw that I was capable, so they didn't take it back, but let me hold it."
"Originally, I was going to undergo a psychological evaluation test at the headquarters, but out of curiosity, I accidentally entered the ghost post office, and things were delayed, so I have always been a temporary criminal police officer."
Xia Hanxin said a lot, both what should be said and what should not be said.
Lin Qian looked at Xia Hanxin and twitched her mouth. A temporary criminal police officer actually entered the ghost post office and became a messenger. It seemed that the headquarters didn't know yet...
Zhao Yunyun and Liu San looked at Xia Hanxin with surprised faces. They did not expect that Xia Hanxin had such an identity, but they were also curious, what is this Interpol? The official ghost controller organization?
Xia Hanxin saw Lin Qian not saying a word, thinking that he didn't believe what he said, and suddenly became anxious:
"Brother, what I said is true. I didn't lie to you. This candle really came from this way, and I am really a temporary criminal police officer."
Xia Hanxin was really afraid of this young man. This guy could kill people more easily than he could eat ghosts. When he ate ghosts, he could still swallow them, but when he killed people, he didn't even move, as if he was just thinking about it.
During this time, people themselves remain silent, dying without even a chance to struggle, or the kind of thing where their ashes are spread out for you.
Lin Qian looked at Xia Hanxin, pushed up his glasses, thought for a while and then said:
"You know, temporary detective? The headquarters really collects all kinds of garbage."
Forehead……
Xia Hanxin: Do you want to be polite to me?
Not paying attention to Xia Hanxin's embarrassment, Lin Qian looked behind them and saw that the hungry ghosts had almost finished eating the ghosts and ghost slaves, and even the corpses on the peach trees had been torn off by the hungry ghosts and eaten.
As for the bones that were still crawling outside, the hungry ghosts directly helped them and let them come out early, and then they were eaten.
"What are you doing here?" Lin Qian looked at these three people, a temporary detective and two messengers, what a strange combination.
"We are here to deliver letters. Didn't the post office deliver a letter? According to the rules of the post office, only those who are assigned must deliver it, so..." Xia Hanxin said cautiously, deeply afraid of Lin Qian
He must have been unhappy and promoted the three of them.
Ha, it turned out to be exactly what he thought, mandatory delivery of letters.
Lin Qian looked at the three of them, focusing on Xia Hanxin. After thinking for a while, she said:
"May I have your name?"
"Me, me?"
"Well, I'm talking about you."
"I, my name is Xia Hanxin, Xia in the summer, Han in jail for being wronged, Xin in a bad mood." Xia Hanxin said.
Lin Qian stared at the woman named Xia Hanxin, twitching the corner of her mouth, and turned to look at the plum forest in the back mountain. The darkness over there was very dense, with a large gray mist mixed in, and plum trees in it.
Faintly visible, the plums as white as skulls look strange and inexplicable.
"We have to go. The ghosts and ghost slaves in the village have been cleared away. A dozen plum trees and peach trees have been uprooted. That's almost enough. Let's go and have a look there. There might be something good there."
Thinking of this, Lin Qian said to Xia Hanxin and the other three:
"Stay here and I will deliver the letter. You are too weak to be of much help."
"If you choose to follow me and those who kill you, our status as Interpol cannot protect you. If we kill you, the headquarters will not say anything."
Lin Qian's tone was calm, but the words he spoke sent chills down their spines.
"Okay, okay, we understand."
Xia Hanxin nodded with a pale face, not daring to resist Lin Qian at all. Zhao Yunyun and Liu San didn't have any objections at the moment, it wasn't that they didn't, but they didn't dare to.
Sometimes, life and death are just a matter of words, and if someone goes to deliver the letter, they can stay here safely without risking their lives to deliver the letter. Why not do this? Fools are not that stupid.
Ignoring the three people, Lin Qian turned around and walked towards the back mountain. A huge ghost realm crashed into the surging darkness of the back mountain, and white mist swept and compressed.
Green and red emerged, the entire sky began to turn dark red, and Lin Qian disappeared suddenly.
Xia Hanxin, Zhao Yunyun and Liu San stared blankly at this scene, speechless. What kind of ghost must they have controlled to possess such great power.
They didn't know, couldn't guess, and didn't dare to think that the peach trees around them began to disappear, the plum trees sank into the soil, and the ghosts with red eyes walked towards the back mountain. The entire Taoli Village seemed to have fallen and was destroyed.
A person fell...
"Is this, is this still a human being? Does this kind of terror really exist in this world?" Liu San said blankly with empty eyes.
Xia Hanxin stared at the green and red colors in the sky, recalling what Lin Qian had said before:
"He seems to know the headquarters very well. Is he also an Interpol police officer? But is there really such a person in the headquarters? Why hasn't she heard of him?"
Xia Hanxin was a little confused, but the facts were here, and there was no dispute. As for whether Lin Qian was from the headquarters, you would know after asking after she went out. She was an Interpol police officer, although she was temporary.
But I still have some rights to investigate some things...
"Do we not have to die this time? Will we survive?"
Zhao Yunyun asked with some uncertainty, his eyes full of confusion and fear.
This scene was so big that she felt a little stupid for a moment.
Xia Hanxin and Liu San did not answer Zhao Yunyun's question. They just remained silent and stared at the changes in the back mountain. That kind of horror was not something they could discuss.
In the back mountain, there is a hazy white mist and dense plum trees all around. At a glance, the line of sight is cut off and you can only see the scene within one meter in front of you.
Lin Qian was walking in the forest, and the white mist could not block his sight, so he could clearly see the motionless skeletons standing under the plum tree.
These are all ghost slaves, and of course there are real ghosts. It looks endless at first glance. If ordinary people come in and breathe in the white mist, within a minute, there will be an extra white bone in Li Shulin.
squeak
The dry leaves were trampled to pieces, and white bones walked towards Lin Qian. A picture of Li Lin's bones appeared vividly in front of Lin Qian:
“What an interesting place.”
With a smile in Lin Qian's eyes, starving ghosts flashing red light walked into the forest and walked towards the walking bones. The moment the two touched, the bones and skeletons were directly swallowed by the starving ghosts, and they were eaten by the hungry ghosts.
Not a single struggling skeleton appeared, it was simply frighteningly weak.
