Chapter 238 Human life is like grass
After the second wave, the ghost peddler's body completely disappeared, leaving only a small, grayish-white figure standing there.
The man had a black cloth wrapped around his head, on which were imprinted Cao Yang's facial features. He was wearing a blue-gray cloth and was skinny, looking like a replica of the ghost peddler.
At the last moment, the ghost peddler made a transaction. He brought the supernatural power of his own forced transaction to the memory ghost. This is its real core supernatural power. As long as the trading ability is still there, it can regain its lost body and supernatural power at any time.
However, Zhang Dong was obviously not ready to stop there.
The skinny hand was still moving slowly, and the ghost peddler felt fear at this moment. He wanted to get out of the sight of this scary old man and escape from this old house.
"You and he are one person, so why resist?"
The gray-white peddler turned around nimbly and tried to escape, but this was an ancient house and outside was a ghost forest. From the moment he stepped into this mysterious place, it no longer had the final say in everything. Even if the ghost peddler completed most of the puzzle and the level of terror was greatly increased, it was of no avail.
Here, the old man Zhang Dong from the ancient house has the final say.
The third wave is coming.
Dahang City, Lin'an Building.
A green light flashed, and Li Jun's figure appeared in the sight of Zhou Deng and Lin Ye.
"This gray world is shrinking. Lin Ye, if you know anything, you'd better tell me. I understand that you don't believe me, but Li Jun is the captain of the headquarters, and you know what kind of person he is."
Seeing Li Jun coming, Zhou Deng began to persuade Lin Ye again. During this period, the ghost's sixth sense had clearly told him that Lin Ye was the source of this incident. It was just that he was wary of himself and did not want to reveal it.
"Lin Ye, I know you joined Cao Yang's team. This incident is basically consistent with another incident Cao Yang experienced, but this time there is no harm. I want to know if it was you, or Cao Yang who did something?"
Li Jun wore sunglasses to cover his empty eyes. Two eerie flames were reflected behind the sunglasses. They were ghost fires burning.
Lin Ye was also a little shaken at this time. The captain's life or death was uncertain, and he couldn't keep the information hidden. Li Jun was also a captain, and perhaps he could provide more meaningful and valuable references.
"This ghost...is related to the captain. I only know that something must have happened to the captain, so I was also affected. If we can find the captain, maybe we can solve it."
Finally, Lin Ye chose to speak.
"The headquarters has sent a captain to find Cao Yang's whereabouts. I will ask about the situation now."
As he spoke, Li Jun took out the satellite phone and dialed.
"Have you found Cao Yang's location?"
In Zhongzhou City, Lu Zhiwen noticed something unusual in Taiping Ancient Town, but his ghost level was not high enough to break the boundary between the supernatural and reality, so he could not see clearly the source of the weirdness.
"Cao Yang came to this place, but he didn't stay long and left soon."
Lu Zhiwen held the compass expressionlessly, and the pen in the middle was shaking particularly violently. It was obvious that Cao Yang was deeply entangled with this strange ancient town.
"Could it be that he has entered that mysterious place that I cannot reach and is no longer in reality?"
Then, Li Jun called.
"I'm still investigating. I can confirm that Cao Yang has been to Zhongzhou City, but it will take some time to find out where he ended up."
"Okay, let's wait a little longer." In view of the fact that this incident did not cause any casualties, Li Jun also chose to stay put for the time being. After his resurrection, he became cautious and no longer recklessly fought like before.
However, the slap in the face always comes very quickly.
The gray-white world that had begun to shrink suddenly expanded rapidly again. Not only that, all the people in the covered area were instantly pulled into this world of memory.
It is visible to the naked eye that the layout of the top floor of Lin'an Building is changing, as if it has turned into another building in an instant.
"Damn, what is going on?!"
Zhou Deng's face was filled with horror, because everything happened too suddenly and strangely, but what really frightened him was that the connection between himself and the evil spirit had been cut off. Apart from the sixth sense ghost, he could not sense any other supernatural existence.
The same thing happened to Li Jun. He became an ordinary person in an instant and was rapidly losing his vitality. Unlike Zhou Deng, Zhou Deng was still alive. Although the current Zhou Deng was not himself, his consciousness still existed.
Li Jun had already died during the ghost painting operation, and his consciousness was completely maintained by the ghost makeup. In this memory world isolated from the supernatural, Li Jun was dying quickly.
Even Lin Ye, who controlled a piece of the puzzle, was inevitably affected. In the memory world, except for some ghosts who were also at a special idealistic level, all other supernatural beings would be isolated.
Also pulled into the memory world was the entire Dahang City, including ordinary people in several surrounding small cities, with a total number exceeding 20 million.
Headquarters, satellite cloud images show that the gray-white world covering Dahang City is gradually invading and even replacing the entire Dahang metropolitan area, and the ghost den is overlapping and even assimilated with reality.
When Deputy Minister Cao Yanhua heard the news, his eyes went dark and he fainted.
Yes, 2100 million ordinary people were all trapped in that ghost cave. This was no longer a supernatural event. This was the destruction of a country, or even the destruction of the world. The total population of the Greater Hangzhou Metropolitan Area had even exceeded that of some small countries. No country in the world could withstand this level of casualties.
This is true - human life is worthless.
In Xiaonan City, Shen Liang and Xiang Shengnian and their group, who were halfway through their flight on a special plane, had to make an emergency landing in Dasu City. Everyone had a solemn expression on their faces, and Qianye's face was extremely pale, without a trace of blood at all.
"Even in the most critical moments of the island nation, such a large number of people's lives would not be threatened."
Xiang Shengnian clenched his fists, not knowing what to say.
"If it's Mr. Cao Yang, he can definitely do it."
Qianye has a blind admiration for Cao Yang because the impression Cao Yang left on him is too deep.
"Captain Shen, I need some of Mr. Cao's personal belongings, such as photos. In short, the deeper the relationship with him, the better."
Xiang Shengnian suppressed the feeling of powerlessness in his heart and finally decided to do something. He was not able to solve the supernatural incident, so he would find someone who could solve it.
"Okay, I'll do it now."
Shen Liang chose to believe Xiang Shengnian's request.
"Qianye, use that phone to cooperate with me. We must find a way to find Mr. Cao who has lost contact."
Chiba nodded solemnly and placed the suitcase flat on the table, ready to use the supernatural item in the suitcase at any time.
