After being imprisoned, the most harmful ghosts will be transported to a special base on the outskirts of Xiaohe City for storage.
The reason why the storage base is set up here is simple.
Of course, the extremely harmful S-class ghosts must be detained under the nose to ensure safety, but the paradox is that the place where the ghosts are imprisoned is itself a time bomb. Although the headquarters has always strictly controlled such areas,
Under the influence of the supernatural, perhaps one day problems will break out in these places where evil spirits are imprisoned.
The words "problem" and "risk" cannot appear in Dajin or Dahe City, let alone in core cities such as Daji City.
In order to prevent the worst case scenario from happening, Xiaohe City, which is caught in the middle of the three, must bear this hidden danger.
A city had to be sacrificed, and the sacrificed naturally could not be an important big city, so Xiaohe City, which was close to three cities at the same time, was chosen as the base for the headquarters to store ghosts.
It is close to three big cities at the same time. Once any problem occurs, the people in charge of the three cities can rush to deal with the problem as soon as possible. If the matter really deteriorates to the point that it cannot be handled, the personnel of the three nearby cities can also have a
Sufficient buffer zone and timely evacuation.
now.
The black smoke seemed to have just spurted out of the chimney, cutting through the blue sky and white clouds, drawing a black line in the sky, which looked extremely abrupt.
Arriving at the outskirts of Xiaohe City, Li Leping's destination was clear. The 901 Research Institute he was looking for was located in this area.
901, the holding base for borrowed ghosts, 9 represents the purpose of the facility, and 01 indicates that this is the first S-class ghost taken into custody by the headquarters.
Soon, Li Leping, who was at high altitude, looked down and found a modern asphalt road in the densely forested mountainous area.
Along this asphalt road, it leads to the mountains in the distance, and among the mountains, a secret research institute is located here.
This place is not marked on the map, just like military bases are not marked on maps. Such bases built in remote mountainous areas are originally designed to conceal people's eyes and conduct some highly confidential research.
However, the five characters "901 Research Institute" on the door plate hanging vertically in front of the door proved that Li Leping was not looking in the wrong place.
The weather here is bright, but there is an inexplicable coldness in the air, which makes people very uncomfortable.
The entire research institute seemed to have been emptied, and the outpost at the entrance was even more empty. The sentinels had gone to no one knew where. The entire base fell into dead silence, as if it had been abandoned, without any trace of living activity.
"This is it."
Li Leping appeared in front of the gate at this moment. He looked at the open door as if someone had opened the door for him in advance and was waiting for him to take the initiative to enter the research base.
As I walked forward, I didn't see any security personnel along the way. The surroundings were eerily quiet, as if everyone in the base had evaporated in an instant.
As soon as I arrived in front of a building, before I entered, a person slowly walked out of the door of the building.
"Luo Yiwen?"
Li Leping stared closely at the old man who walked out from behind the door.
Unlike Mr. Qin, who is covered with age spots and may kick his legs and pass away at any time.
Li Leping had met the old man walking in front of him once before. It was Dean Luo who had white hair on his temples, wore a white coat, and seemed to have some energy, and explained the captain's plan to him.
Dean Luo is in charge of the 901 Research Institute.
However, looking at his cold face, empty eyes, and numb look, he must have been invaded by the supernatural.
"You are indeed here."
Luo Yiwen stood in front of the door, his expression indifferent, his voice without any emotion, his body was like a dead body, his chest did not rise and fall at all, as if he could no longer breathe. He just stood in front of the dim door, waiting for a long time.
.
He is a familiar yet unfamiliar person, and the horror of ghosts is fully demonstrated at this moment.
"I thought it was your true self who came out, Wu Wu."
Li Leping had a stern look on his face, and he would naturally not look down upon this person pretending to be Luo Yiwen to talk to him.
"Wu Wu?"
Luo Yiwen's cold eyes moved slightly, as if showing a look of surprise, but he was quickly pressed down and disappeared immediately.
"I have dealt with a lot of supernatural incidents, and I can still clearly distinguish the difference between ghosts and humans."
"After the collision between humans and ghosts, ghosts may steal some wisdom that belongs to humans, but ghosts will not talk to humans for no reason. Ghosts always act according to certain rules, and your behavior and speech are too similar.
As a human being, rather than saying that you are a ghost, it is better to say that you are on the side of the ghost."
Li Leping stared at this familiar face, his eyes were extremely cold, as if he was talking to the mastermind hiding in the dark through this familiar yet unfamiliar face.
He Xueyan's death caused a considerable psychological impact on him, affecting his thinking ability.
But when there was a possibility of saving everything, and when he calmed down again, he discovered the clues.
Is this thing that claims to be a ghost really a ghost?
It is so smart, so smart and human-like.
There are many contradictions in logic, and the most critical question is, if there really is such a smart ghost, can it still be called a ghost?
Li Leping guessed that this self-proclaimed ghost actually belongs to the category of human beings.
This is most likely an alien, someone who controls supernatural beings with the consciousness of a living person, similar to an alien like Gu Chengjun.
"Although I don't know exactly how you regained consciousness, but on the premise that what I have to face is not a ghost, but a human being, Wu Wu, who is most entangled with the borrowed ghosts, is most likely the mastermind behind the scenes."
"You pretend to be a ghost just for two things. First, to make us people feel despair and make us mistakenly think that we are facing a ghost in human form, which will cause a huge psychological burden to us.
, just like you asked He Xueyan to commit suicide in front of me, just to arouse my anger and make me lose my mind."
"Second, it's because you want to use our anti-ghost thinking to set a trap for us."
With that said, Li Leping took out a red ghost candle from his pocket.
"The ghost candle is useful for ghosts, but it cannot affect people. If someone wants to use the ghost candle and the scapegoat to avoid your attack, I'm afraid that is when they will be most desperate."
Taking out a golden lighter, Li Leping lit the ghost candle.
The candle burned, and the candlelight covered the surroundings. Even in broad daylight, the green candlelight could illuminate an area with a radius of five meters.
In the ghost candle, a cold breath lingers, making people shudder. However, anyone who knows a little bit about the inside knows that this cold breath can dispel supernatural beings and is the only thing that people can do in supernatural events.
Feel a safe sanctuary.
now.
Following Guizhu's light, his hollow and numb eyes turned slightly, and he instinctively retreated, immediately retreating outside the area illuminated by Guizhu.
"Pah, pah, pah."
However, when Luo Yiwen chose to stay away from the candlelight and retreated into the dark building, he raised his arms stiffly, with the joints bent, and his two palms slapped each other like a machine. There was a sparse applause, and the sound echoed in the corridor
, all the way to Li Leping’s ears.
"You are really terrible. I killed your operator, but you can still stand calmly in front of me. You can even analyze my situation and see the trap I set. It's really amazing. I'm afraid
I have to wonder which one is more like a ghost, me or you."
The cold voice contained no emotion, just staring at the ghost candle in Li Leping's hand.
The Luo Yiwen in front of him is a ghost slave, a person who relies on supernatural powers to support his body. Of course, he will avoid ghost candles.
But this does not prevent Wu Wu from borrowing Luo Yiwen's body to have a conversation with Li Leping. One of them is standing in the sun, and the other can only be forced into the dark building by the ghost candle.
"Your guess is absolutely correct. I woke up again. The reason why I lied about being a ghost is to make you feel scared and scare yourself in fear."
"It's much easier to kill a group of people who are in disarray than to kill a group of people who are united. It's such a pity. Originally, I wanted to see the look on those people's faces when they found out that the proud ghost candle has failed.
My horrified expression was shattered by your words."
No longer concealing his true identity, the person who controlled Luo Yiwen admitted his identity.
He is Wu Wu, the driver of borrowed ghosts. He was supposed to be revived by the ghosts, but somehow he came back to life.
What Li Leping faced was not a borrowed ghost, but Wu Wu.
"Sure enough, when the ghost paintings caused riots in Big J City, when the interior of Xiaohe City was empty, and other cities were unable to support it, and even the news could not be received, you invaded here and took back the body."
Li Leping was not surprised.
Regardless of whether you are a ghost or a ghost master, if your puzzle piece is broken up, you will definitely find a way to get it back if you have the chance.
For ghosts, this is instinct.
For people, this is the surest way to get back to the top.
Looking at Li Leping, who had a cold expression, as if he could kill him with just his eyes, Luo Yiwen's face was still stiff and numb, like a dead person, and he said indifferently: "There is no need to look at me with such a scary look, a little kid
It's just a little joke, I, the person who was found out, don't have any objections, so what do you have?"
Li Leping squinted his eyes with a cold look: "You killed Li Jun, Jiang Shangbai, and killed so many people. Even Zhongshan was used by you. Do you still want to pray that I will give you a good look?"
Luo Yiwen, or to be precise, Wu Wu, who looks like Luo Yiwen, seems to have transformed into a stranger after some special supernatural collision. At this moment, there is no need to take Li Leping seriously: "You also killed many of us.
Is it too much for me to come back now? Besides, if I don’t kill you all now, when you and the one named Gu Li grow up, won’t you retaliate against me? "
"According to what you say, am I still the one who is at fault?" Li Leping mocked.
"Wrong? You shouldn't say that."
Wu Wu shook his head, his movements a little stiff: "None of us are wrong. After all, what determines right and wrong in this world is actually a question of whose fist is bigger. Whoever has a bigger fist has the right to speak. With words
Right, right or wrong doesn’t matter.”
Li Leping extinguished the ghost candle in his hand, and did not choose to continue to waste it at this time: "It seems that you think your fist is very big?"
Although he didn't know why Wu Wu hadn't taken action against him yet, Li Leping also knew that there was no point in taking action against such a puppet in front of him.
Although Wu Wu pretended to be a ghost and told lies, he was not wrong about one thing.
That is, he was defeated once by Li Leping, and he and Su Hong, the second person in charge of Dachuan City, were defeated by Li Leping.
learn from mistakes.
Li Leping was sure that since Wu Wu had not arrived in person yet, it meant that he was still planning something and then gave him a fatal blow.
For Li Leping, this kind of alien that is between humans and ghosts and dominated by human consciousness is not so easy to kill.
In this case, what Li Leping has to do is not to fight to the death, but to find ways to obtain as much information as possible, and to delay the time, waiting for the follow-up.
To drag, just drag hard.
"Whether the fist is big or not, you will know later. There is still some time now. We can chat and treat it as a practice for you so that you can understand it."
Wu Wu did not take action at this time. His true identity has not been revealed. It seems that he is indeed afraid of Li Leping, so he is planning something at this moment. He will only launch the attack when everything is ready.
"Speaking of which, I should thank you. Although I don't know what medium you used to trigger the killing pattern of that short stick, but if it weren't for your stick, I wouldn't be able to wake up at all."
The two of them were destined to fight until only one of them could survive, but at this moment they started chatting like good friends they hadn't seen for many years.
Wu Wu looked at the black short stick Li Leping carried behind his back and recounted the thrilling journey: "The ghost borrowed my consciousness, but I was not completely dead. It's just that the ghost's supernatural powers were too powerful, causing me to
I lost my control, and my consciousness has been being used by ghosts."
"It's just that thanks to you noticing the backhand left by the borrowed ghost in time, and then scattering the bloody face, most of the ghost's supernatural powers returned to the ghost, and only a small part of the supernatural powers that carried my consciousness were still there.
I’m entangled with that weird newspaper, so I can’t return to the ghost’s body together.”
"I died once, and my consciousness has been entangled with the supernatural power of the borrowed ghost for too long. They have become indistinguishable from each other, as if they were one body. It was just that the borrowed ghost took up the majority before. But after the supernatural power of the borrowed ghost was greatly weakened, my consciousness
I recovered smoothly, and I also took control of the small number of ghosts and ghosts that were entangled with the newspaper."
"It's just that this part of the supernatural power is too weak, so I was once controlled by that weird newspaper, because someone left a sentence on the newspaper, 'Forget that you are a ghost.' As a result, the ghost-borrowing supernatural power in me was also suppressed.
, and I fell into a state similar to a deep sleep, and could only let the newspaper stick to my face."
"As the newspaper gradually began to lose control, the writing on it began to fade. After the ghost recovered, he began to kill people again."
"The first person it targeted was Yang Jian. It took my body like this and wanted to kill that person named Yang Jian."
"It's just that its first attack failed because although the remaining handwriting on the newspaper was about to become invalid, it was not completely invalid. It forgot that he was a ghost and the order to protect Yang Jian, which caused the ghost newspaper to be trapped in the killing
In contradiction with the logic of protection, in the end, the man named Yang Jian was not successfully killed, but Yang Jian's memory was slightly modified out of instinct."
"If those two lines of annoying writing hadn't prevented me from using the ghost's supernatural power, I could have taken my body back the first time it took off the newspaper."
"However, there are two. When the second attack was launched, the order symbolizing protection in the newspaper had completely disappeared. Fortunately, the second attack of the ghost newspaper still failed. Yang Jian had become
A newspaper cannot kill a ghost master."
"So, it plans to start with the people around Yang Jian and invade a person named Zhao Lei."
"And when the restrictions were lifted, although the newspaper regained its ghost instinct, I was no longer restricted and could freely use my ability to borrow ghosts."
"When it took off the newspaper on my face and tried to modify Zhao Lei's memory, it lost the suppression of the newspaper on my face, and my consciousness reawakened with the help of ghosts on my body, and I took the opportunity to successfully regain my body.
control."
He did not discuss the origin of the newspaper in detail, nor did he introduce the blood-stained newspaper in detail. After all, Wu Wu did not care whether the audience Li Leping understood it or not, he was just passing the time here.
"And then……"
Suddenly, Wu Wu seemed to have sensed something. He closed his lips and did not continue speaking. On his ashen face, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, showing a strange smile. A pair of dark eyes looked at Li Leping fiercely: "It seems that my
Fortunately, it didn't recover so quickly, and I survived. The story ends here, and now it's time to get to the final chapter."
"thump!"
After saying this, Luo Yiwen's body was like a puppet with its strings cut off, and he fell directly to the ground. His wide-open eyes were filled with deathly silence, and the supernatural power supporting his movements suddenly disappeared.
"Survived?"
Li Leping immediately frowned when he heard this.
He had no way of knowing the meaning behind this sentence.
But it was obvious that Wu Wu was planning something, and he seemed to have succeeded.
He was ready to settle the accounts with himself.
And just then.
On the outskirts of Xiaohe City, in the mountains more than ten kilometers away from here.
In a base building similar to a research institute, a strange haze suddenly rose from the underground detention room, and finally rushed into the dark and deserted building, and then followed the building's doorways, windows, and vents, and passed through all the gaps.
It kept drifting out, as if the building could no longer contain this terrible haze.
This kind of haze is particularly conspicuous even in dim buildings, because it presents a strange blue-black color, like a bruise, and is filled with a cold and strange atmosphere.
Not only did the haze spread out, but the blue-black haze quickly rose into the sky, like a mushroom cloud rising into the sky after a nuclear explosion. Then it spread to the surroundings and began to cover the entire sky, cutting off the sunlight. Everything around began to darken, and the hanging
The door number of "902 Research Institute" at the entrance of the institute was immediately submerged in the haze.
It seems that the terrible scene that happened in Dachang City is about to happen again in Xiaohe City.
