Going deep into the maze with Niu Xi and bringing back a lot of treasures, Jia Zhengjin still felt a little uneasy.
I always felt that the atmosphere was very strange these past two days, and there were continuous supernatural events, which didn't seem to be accidental.
Late at night, after Chu Daya fell asleep, he secretly got up and went outside the house to summon Nuwa.
"What are your orders, captain?" Nuwa appeared in front of her and asked with a smile on her face.
"Start the satellite monitoring and let me observe the dynamics of the entire Niulan Village in real time." Jia Zhengjin ordered softly, "I always feel that the situation is a bit strange, so I have to be more cautious."
"Receive command!" Nuwa started the program, and a virtual screen immediately appeared in front of Jia Zhengjin, showing a panoramic bird's-eye view of Niulan Village.
And there are options next to this virtual screen to control the distance, which can enlarge or reduce the distance between the satellite monitoring range and the real scene.
"Okay, you go back first!" He turned on the satellite surveillance and felt more at ease. Even if a supernatural event like before happened, he would be able to detect it in advance through the surveillance.
"Yes!" Nuwa did not mention anything about Kang County again, including Huo'er's situation. Jia Zhengjin had already explained it several times before, so she naturally kept it in mind and would not disturb him with these trivial matters.
After Nuwa left, she quietly returned to the house and lay down.
The virtual screen has been floating in front of my eyes, and the night view of Niulan Village under the silver moonlight is particularly quiet.
It was pitch dark in the village, and not a single light could be seen.
It was late at night and the villagers had all fallen asleep.
It's actually quite boring to just stare at the motionless surveillance pictures, the silent houses that look like photos.
Of course, Jia Zhengjin, who has lived for more than a thousand years, has long been used to it.
In his ears, he could hear Chu Daya's slight snoring, intertwined with the chirping of insects outside the house.
I kept doing this until about two o'clock in the morning.
On the virtual screen, a strange phenomenon suddenly occurred.
Aerial view of Niulan Village, which was originally lifeless. A large number of white shadows suddenly appeared around the scattered village buildings.
The native dog raised in the village started barking and looked particularly irritable.
But when Bai Ying approached, the dogs tucked their tails between their legs and hid inside the house, not daring to make any more noise.
Jia Zhengjin suddenly woke up and sat up to observe the white shadow in the picture carefully. Since it was a bird's-eye view from top to bottom and the distance was too far, it appeared very small and could not be seen clearly.
He clicked the button next to the virtual screen with his right hand, locked on the area with the densest white shadows, zoomed in and zoomed in.
The scene shortened sharply, and it was quickly apparent that the gathering of white shadows was the mass grave beside Niulan Village.
Looking at the white shadows that appeared from the mass graves, they were all ghosts, wandering into the village and flying around.
The ghost doesn't seem to have any purpose, nor does it break into any villager's room at will, but just wanders back and forth on the streets meaninglessly.
What's going on?
Jia Zhengjin frowned and thought, did the ghost always exist and the villagers didn't know it, or did it just appear recently?
I always feel that the current situation is a bit strange. It seems that I just came to Niulan Village and this was not the case a few days ago when I pretended to be Niu Shun.
That is to say, it started with the female ghost who broke into the room, then suddenly encountered a monster seeking to be sealed on the mountain, and then saw the strange night scene in the village through the satellite.
"Hmm~" Chu Daya suddenly made a voice behind her. It turned out that she turned over, but she was sleeping soundly.
After Jia Zhengjin confirmed the probe, he continued to check the satellite surveillance pictures.
The ghosts continued to wander meaninglessly, which was normal in other places, but when one of them passed by an area a few hundred meters away from Niu Shun's house, he turned around and flew towards him in a daze, as if he was attracted by something.
Then soon, Jia Zhengjin saw the ghost seen in the virtual screen pass through the door, enter Niu Shun's home, and meet his eyes.
The ghost was an old man in his seventies or eighties with gray hair. He was probably an elder of some family in Niulan Village.
The old ghost entered the house and found that Jia Zhengjin's eyes met his own, showing some doubts. Then he ignored him, turned around and flew towards Chu Daya's bed.
What's the meaning?
Jia Zhengjin said in his heart that I was looking at you with both eyes, but I pretended not to see you?
Also, why did this old ghost, like the female ghost last time, move towards Chu Daya after coming in?
Is there something about Chu Daya that attracts ghosts?
At this moment, the old ghost had already reached the bedside, took a look at Chu Daya who was sleeping soundly, and seemed to lean over him.
What if I don't exist? Jia Zhengjin frowned and stood up, took out the soul-binding chain from his virtual backpack, and before the old ghost leaned over Chu Daya's body, he threw it over instantly and wrapped it tightly around him.
The old ghost was tied up with chains and could not enter Chu Daya's body. He turned around and looked at Jia Zhengjin blankly, a little confused about the situation.
Maybe he couldn't understand why this kid, who didn't seem to have anything strange, suddenly threw a chain that could catch him?
Moreover, the chain is extremely strange. No matter how hard I struggle, it is useless and I can't get rid of it at all.
Probably unwilling to give in and want to be free, the old ghost opened his mouth and let out a sharp scream, and his eyes glowed strangely red. He seemed to be warning Jia Zhengjin not to meddle in his own business.
Now Jia Zhengjin's transformation into Niu Shun is the template of an ordinary person, and the old ghost only thinks that he is a human being with strange props.
The strange cry of the old ghost was very harsh, and Chu Daya, who was sleeping deeply, frowned, showing signs of waking up.
Jia Zhengjin quickly took out the soul-gathering pot, pointed it at the old ghost and silently said: "Take it!"
"Phew!" The old ghost felt something bad, turned around and wanted to escape, but was tightly held by the soul-binding chain and unable to move. The soul-gathering pot released a powerful suction force, and it was sucked into it in an instant.
"Hmm~" Chu Daya turned over and looked like she was about to wake up, but soon she heard a slight snore again.
She was not woken up and slept deeply.
Jia Zhengjin breathed a sigh of relief and quietly left the house with the Soul Gathering Pot. When he got outside, he stood in front of the door and checked the satellite bird's-eye view.
It turned out that except for the old ghost who accidentally wandered into the neighborhood and was attracted to the house by something, the other ghosts were still wandering around, neither gathering nor approaching.
What is going on? Could it be that the ghosts who are close to Niu Shun's house will enter the house?
They all seem to be running towards Chu Daya. Is there anything special about her?
Could it be that Chu Daya was transformed by Yue Lang?
No! If it was Yue Lang who transformed him, he obviously came from the Four Heavenly Palace, and the ghosts would definitely stay away from him and would not be able to lean in.
Since ghosts dare to lean over Chu Daya, we must first rule out that she is Yue Lang, or a deity. After all, it is too late for ghosts to run away when they see a deity, not to mention that ghosts are still the lowest form of undead.
Since she is not Yue Lang and cannot be some kind of immortal, why does she attract ghosts and monsters to lean over her?
The ghost simply ignored himself in the form of Niu Shun, and did not break into any villager's home or attack others. Why did he single out Chu Daya?
