Chapter 105 Unknown
Chapter 105 Unknown
Bai Yanliang entered the house, took out the silver key hanging around his neck, and inserted it into the door lock.
"Click——"
The door opened.
A thin wisp of mist came out from the crack in the door and wrapped around Bai Yanliang's feet.
Bai Yanliang pushed the door open, but what he saw startled him. Wu Ji... had changed!
The chaotic, dark, gray mist completely dissipated, and everything around, up, down, left, right, turned white, emitting pure white light.
The fog no longer blocked the view, and everyone could see each other clearly. Bai Yanliang even saw a door suddenly appear in the void, and then Li Mu walked in with a dejected look.
As soon as Li Mu came in, he attracted the concern of most people. After all, it was obvious that there were problems with his mental state.
He was very tired, his eyes were bloodshot and his breathing was heavy.
What's up with him?
Li Mu waved his hand and thanked everyone for their greetings.
His mind was full of questions now. How could Wu Ji suddenly undergo such a big change?
Li Mu looked around. The only things that hadn't changed were the two narrow scarlet balls of light hanging above his head. They looked like a pair of eyes, overlooking everyone.
But... for now, it seems that Wu Ji's change is a good thing. The bright, white, and open environment is at least not as depressing as before.
"Bai Yanliang!"
As soon as a door opened, a voice came from inside.
Bai Yanliang looked back and saw Yu Sheng emerging from a door.
As the door quickly closed, Bai Yanliang vaguely saw a figure.
"Yu Sheng." Bai Yanliang came up to Yu Sheng and asked, "Did you tell Ren Wudao about Wu Ji?"
Yu Sheng shook his head in surprise: "No?"
As she spoke, she turned around to look at the door that had closed and disappeared, and whispered, "I just sent him away on purpose..."
"Maybe I saw it wrong." Bai Yanliang said thoughtfully.
Just when Yu Sheng was about to say something, Li Mu's voice suddenly rang out.
"Mr. Bai, can you come over here for a moment?"
Bai Yanliang turned around and saw six pairs of eyes looking at him.
Li Mu, Feng Xiuxue, Xu Zhifei, and three others, should be Yu Wenxuan, Song Que and Gu Pingsheng.
"excuse me."
Bai Yanliang said to Yu Sheng.
Yu Sheng nodded and watched him walk quickly towards Li Mu and the others. Her gaze stayed on Feng Xiuxue and Xu Zhifei for a moment, then slowly moved away, and she stayed there in silence.
Bai Yanliang had just approached, and before he and Yu Wenxuan and the other two had a chance to get to know each other, he heard Li Mu say:
"I'm haunted."
The eyes of the six people were immediately focused on him. Everyone here had seen or even come into contact with strange people in real life, but being haunted by a ghost in real life was something they could not imagine.
"I've been having the same dream over and over again lately."
Li Mu recounted his experience, although it sounded incredible. "Before, when I woke up from a nightmare, usually seven or eight hours had passed, but... as time went on, the time difference between dreams and reality became larger and larger. Until today, after waking up from a dream of the same length, only two hours had passed. I couldn't fall asleep again for the whole day."
Li Mu's voice was a little hoarse, and it was obvious that he had been tormented by nightmares during this period.
There is a saying that a person can live 20 days without food, 7 days without water, and only 5 days without sleep.
There may be differences in environment and individuals, but the importance of sleep to the human body is self-evident.
Li Mu's sleep time is getting shorter and shorter. In the end, will he only be able to sleep for half an hour, ten minutes a day, or even... not be able to fall asleep at all?
"Have you tried sleeping pills?" Feng Xiuxue asked.
"It's useless. I fall asleep quickly, but wake up at the same time." Li Mu grabbed his hair. The young criminal policeman had lost a lot of weight. He was not afraid of death, but he didn't want to die in such an unclear and cowardly way.
"Have you ever thought that the reason you're haunted by ghosts in real life is related to Wu Ji's changes?" A young man's voice suddenly sounded.
Bai Yanliang looked over and saw a handsome young man with earrings and a cynical temperament who was tossing a coin again and again.
"Song Que, if you have something to say, just say it clearly." Feng Xiuxue seemed to dislike him very much and her tone was a bit aggressive.
It turns out that he is Song Que.
Bai Yanliang glanced at him quickly. He was young, confident, and outspoken. His temperament was like that of a student who had never suffered any setbacks, had grown up from a childhood genius, and had just graduated from a prestigious affiliated hospital.
At least that's what it looks like on the surface.
But Bai Yanliang accidentally saw his eyes, calm, alert, thoughtful... a very interesting person.
As if noticing Bai Yanliang's gaze, Song Que raised his chin towards Bai Yanliang as a greeting.
"Isn't what I mean clear enough? Feng Xiuxue, it's a miracle that you're still alive today." Song Que flicked up a coin, then caught it steadily in his palm and said, "Okay, listen, the biggest difference between Li Mu and us is the length of time he stayed in Wu Ji. Maybe, I mean maybe, Wu Ji has an invisible standard. When the survival time of someone in Wu Ji reaches that standard, some changes will occur, and correspondingly, that person will also undergo some changes, such as...his name fading, encountering ghosts in reality, etc. This may be a test. If you survive it, you may leave Wu Ji forever."
Feng Xiuxue frowned.
Although she disliked Song Que from the first time she met him, it was undeniable that, considering Wu Ji's changes and Li Mu's experience, the logic of his statement was flawless, and even... it was very likely that what he said was true.
"Wu Ji has indeed changed. This time... there is not a single new person joining." Gu Pingsheng said.
Compared with Song Que, he seems much more mature and reliable, and this is indeed the case. Gu Pingsheng is 30 years old this year and is already one of the country's leading surgeons.
"Do you think it's preparing to purge us?" Yu Wenxuan said with a smile, squinting his eyes.
The people gathered in the fog had a consistent attitude towards Yu Wenxuan: vigilant, alert, and on guard.
This person's behavior... makes people suspect that he is a ruthless criminal in real life.
At this moment, blood-red names suddenly appeared in the white void.
But the strange thing is that not everyone’s name appeared this time, but only seven!
Zhong Yi, Su Jieyi, Su Jiexian, Bai Yanliang, Qin Chuan, Xu Zhifei, Du Shangjing.
Seven names appeared at the same time, it was hard to tell which one came first, and they were all blood red!
Everyone stared at the seven names in amazement. This blood-red color meant they were the ones who were haunted!
Could it be that... these seven people are the ones who are entangled this time?
