Chapter 350: I am the outlier among them
No, Ming Chuan shook his head and corrected his thoughts. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
It shouldn't be said much, he stayed in the old town for a few days, and he didn't meet a single ghost.
The existence of this circle explains this phenomenon.
Ghosts that do not go to the ghost realm immediately after death, even if they become powerful ghosts, will be sucked underground by this circle.
The power that Qing Hong felt was also because of this magic circle.
Sending out imps is also to constantly create ghosts?
But if so, why hadn't he and Shadow Lan been affected? Apparently when he was on the ground, he had already been targeted by that little imp.
Also, the power that makes the ghosts turn into ghosts faster, is it the magic circle or the "thing" underground?
The more Ming Chuan thought about it, the more confused he felt, but he knew that the answer was in front of him.
"Let's go. Ming Chuan said to Gao Shanjing, and after speaking, he took a step forward.
Gao Shanjing smiled when he heard this, and he didn't ask anything, but from Ming Chuan's solemn expression just now, he probably guessed what Ming Chuan probably thought.
Their steps are not fast, because they have confirmed that they are approaching their target, and they must be careful not to fall into some strange trap again, and of course, they must be careful not to see if there are still ghouls who have slipped through the net.
Second, the two of them have consumed a lot along the way, especially Mingchuan, the ghost qi and mental power have not fully recovered, and their physical strength is also a little exhausted, so walking slowly can also buy some time to recover.
"Mr. Akikawa. After walking for a while, Gao Shan Jing broke the silence with his mouth.
"What?" Ming Chuan didn't stop, just turned his head to look at him.
"If, as you said before, there is some kind of magic circle here that can absorb ghost energy, then why is there no life in that house?" Gao Shanjing still had that smiling expression and asked with some doubts.
"I've thought about that too. Ming Chuan raised his hand and scratched his hair, his tone was a little indifferent and tired, "Since neither of us felt any effect, this magic circle or something else can indeed only absorb ghost qi, and there will be nothing wrong with this." As for that house......"
Ming Chuan said this, pausing slightly.
The "house" in the mouths of the two of them naturally refers to the old man's residence, the dilapidated earthen house, where not only did they not feel any ghostly energy, but they did not even have the slightest bit of anger. It doesn't look like anyone has lived there at all.
"The world is a place of balance, and nature has its own set of laws. Ming Chuan said lightly, "When the balance is disturbed somewhere, it will try to restore its balance." ā
"You mean, that phenomenon was created by the forces of nature?" Takayama raised his eyebrows when he heard this.
"Hmm. Ming Chuan nodded, "After this underground magic circle absorbs the ghost qi, in order to restore the balance there, the only way to eliminate the qi is to do the same." ā
"If you say that, the area affected by this circle should be in that state, right?" Gao Shanjing asked.
When Ming Chuan heard this, he couldn't help but glance at him, and there was a hint of doubt in his expression.
"What's wrong?" Gao Shan Jing didn't know why Ming Chuan had such an expression.
"Haven't you Gaoshan family been driving ghosts for generations, why can't you even think of such a simple truth?" Ming Chuan's tone didn't have too much mockery, he was just simply puzzled.
"What's the truth?" Gao Shanjing was not angry, this moody and somewhat neurotic guy was very modest about things he didn't understand.
"Because there are people somewhere else. Ming Chuan looked at him and made sure that the other party's expression didn't seem to pretend, this guy really couldn't figure it out, so he explained as he walked, "As long as there are people, or rather, there are activities of living beings, there will be ghosts and ghosts constantly." Although this circle will continue to absorb ghost energy, the amount it absorbs is far less than the amount it produces. ā
"So in other places, just keep it in a dynamic equilibrium?" Gao Shan Jing had a strong comprehension ability, and immediately understood what Ming Chuan meant.
"Well, so elsewhere, we didn't notice anything odd. Ming Chuan nodded.
The rest of the old town is lively and has a high flow of people. But the place where Old Man Zhang lives is different. After the death of Old Man Zhang, there were no other creatures there except for a persimmon tree and some weeds and insects.
Ming Chuan also thought about these things for a long time before he figured it out.
"I see. Gao Shan Jing touched his chin and muttered, "It seems that I still have a lot to learn on these issues. ā
When Ming Chuan heard this, he glanced at Gao Shanjing again.
Since this Gaoshan family is a family of exorcists, the level of understanding of ghosts and the like must be much higher than that of himself. But judging from Gao Shanjing's reaction, he really didn't know much about these things.
And judging from Gao Shanjing's attitude, he didn't deliberately fail to understand it because he wasn't interested in it. It seems that there is some reason for this.
Speaking of which, how well does Gao Shanling know about these?
He hadn't deliberately inquired before, but he just felt that the people of the Gao Shan family knew a lot about formations, runes, and how to deal with ghosts, so he hadn't thought too much about it. Now that I think about it, it is very likely that their family's policy is based on force, and they don't care about the balance between ghosts and humans.
Thinking of this, Ming Chuan couldn't help but frown.
In his opinion, the Gaoshan family is undoubtedly a big family and a big force in the current exorcism business, and it can be regarded as a leading figure.
Although he hadn't seen a few other exorcists, since Kaguya and the Takayama family appeared one after another, he had come to understand that there was such a group in this world, but they, like himself, would hide their identities and only operate in secret, and they didn't even have any contact with each other.
But even so, if the Takayama family, as the leading figure, upholds such an attitude, then the attitude of the entire group of exorcists can be imagined.
As mentioned before, Akikawa has no problem with the Takayama family's way of doing things and the policies they uphold, and he doesn't want to point fingers. He just doesn't like it very much.
Looking at it now, it is likely that he himself is the outlier.
Thinking of this, Ming Chuan sneered. Alien is different, anyway, he has long been used to being alien.
While Ming Chuan was thinking about this, Gao Shan Jing didn't speak. There was always a shallow smile on his face, and he couldn't tell what he was thinking.
The two of them continued to walk forward, each with their own thoughts, and after a while, they came to the front of a rock wall.
"Dead end?" Gao Shan Jing used a flashlight to shine around, and found that the rock wall completely sealed their path, although there were some gaps in it, but it was impossible for an adult to pass through. (To be continued.) )
