July 1, 2020 at two p.m.

Baiyun Town, Naxi District, Luchuan City, Shunan Province.

A huge scorching sun hung in the clear sky, exuding a scorching temperature, as if it was about to burn everything on the earth into charcoal, and the dazzling light made people dare not look directly.

Baiyun Town, a town of more than 900 households, is backed by endless mountains and forests, and a small river meanders through the west of the town.

This town has a history of hundreds of years, but there are no famous cultural monuments and tourist attractions, so no one has come to develop it, and most of the people in the town rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, rely on the water to do some small business.

The town is not big, the streets are distributed in a "Y" shape, a main street is about seven or eight hundred meters long, called Dawang Street, and after the end, it divides into two small streets, extending about four or five hundred meters.

The small street on the left is an old street, called Fuming Street, the houses are a little dilapidated, and most of the people living in it are the elderly and people with poor economic conditions.

The street on the right is called Xinmin Street, which is a newly built community, which has been developed by the government in recent years, and people in the town who have a little spare money have bought a house in Xinmin Street.

The streets of the town are lined with a variety of shops, and there are also some street stalls selling snacks, fruits, and children's toys.

Although it is the hottest time of the day, some young people can still be seen walking down the street with their girlfriends.

At this time, in the deepest part of Fu Ming Street, there is a somewhat dilapidated two-story building.

Most of the old streets in Baiyun Town are two-story buildings, and the three- and four-story buildings are renovated by some young people who have gone out to work.

There is a door hanging on the store of this building, on which are written a few large characters in white on a black background - a dragon for funeral.

There are a few small characters written in the lower left corner, the main business: candles, paper money, wreaths, shrouds, fireworks.

Inside the store, a counter about two meters long is placed on the outermost part of the store, next to the left wall, with a lot of fireworks inside, and a one- or two-meter aisle on the right.

Behind the counter is a wooden table about one meter and a half in length and width, on which are some white paper, and some freshly tied small paper people and some paper tables and paper carts, all of which are burned for the dead.

On the left and right sides of the hall hung some wreaths, some white, some red-white......

A young man of about seventeen or eighteen years of age, lying on a chair in the hall.

WhewW......

Behind the young man, a floor fan shook his head, and gusts of wind whistled out of it.

This teenager is wearing a white short-sleeved shirt and black shorts, with a pair of flip-flops on his feet, thick eyebrows and big eyes, fair skin, and his appearance is not handsome, he can only be said to be a little handsome.

The teenager was lying on a chair, holding a domestic banana mobile phone that came out last year, and swiping a short video software "Pippi Video" that has been very popular in recent years.

Swiping his phone, the boy suddenly let out an exclamation.

"Damn, such a cow".

The boy got up one by one, sat cross-legged on the chair, and stared intently at the news on his mobile phone.

A news item is playing on your phone.

A beautiful woman held a microphone and read the manuscript in her hand: "It is rumored that in a small town in Shuangniu District, Fengyang City, Shunan Province, a villager saw a century-old Kui tree, suddenly stretched out several branches more than ten meters long, beat passers-by, and then played a video recorded by witnesses for everyone."

Immediately afterwards, the picture turned, and a village was not far from this wood, and some figures could be seen standing at the entrance of the village chatting.

In the woods, there is a huge old kui tree, the diameter of the trunk is estimated to be about four or five meters, nearly twenty meters high, dense branches, verdant, exuding a green light, as if it will catch people's hearts.

Dead yellow branches more than ten meters long fell to the ground.

Two middle-aged men came from afar with hoes on their shoulders, talking and laughing, people from the village not far away, who had just finished their farm work and were about to go home.

At this moment, the two of them just walked in front of Lao Kuishu, and a sudden change occurred.

I saw that the branches that fell to the ground moved violently, and the branches were like whips, and they were slammed on the two of them, directly pumping the two middle-aged men out, the skin was open, and the force was huge, and after the two rolled on the ground a few times, they had no strength to stand up and escape, so they could only call for help to the people in the village on the ground.

The camera of the video also began to shake, and the video recorder screamed, saw this scene, and hurriedly ran into the distance.

Before I saw the follow-up, I saw a message covering this news - the video screen is violated, and the official is working hard to rectify it.

The boy cursed in his heart, and slid his finger to find the next news like this.

In fact, this is not the first time he has seen such bizarre news, since a month ago, he has often seen such videos.

At first, he thought it was just a synthesis by a vlogger to gain attention.

But in the past month, he has swiped dozens of similar news, which makes him believe whether these news are true or not, and he is very surprised.

Could it be that there are really some demons and monsters in this world.

Yesterday, he also swiped a video about youkai.

The content of the video is like this, an outdoor anchor, this anchor is by exploring some uninhabited deep mountains and old forests, and explaining some plants and animals in the deep mountains and old forests for people to become popular.

Yesterday, the outdoor anchor was still on the air as always, holding a selfie stick, driving his SUV bought by the old irons, towards a deep mountain and old forest.

However, when he reached his destination and got out of the car, a humanoid monster more than two meters tall, covered in pitch black, and covered with fish scales suddenly ran behind him.

Countless barrages hurriedly reminded the anchor to look at the back, and the anchor was a little panicked when he saw such a barrage and asked him to look at the back at the same time.

He looked behind him and happened to see the back of the humanoid monster, so frightened that he hurriedly got into the car and drove away without looking back.

Then it was still a familiar taste, the same recipe, and the official reminded the anchor that he was suspected of violating the rules and directly blocked his live broadcast.

Every time I see such a video, I will be officially banned in the end, and many people are also talking in the comment area.

Could it be that there are really zombies, fox fairies, ghosts or something in the world, which made the entire Internet panic for a while.

Many people also sent private messages to the authors of these bizarre videos, asking if these things were true, but they did not get a reply from the author.

In the end, it was the central news that came out to clarify the report, explaining that there can be no ghosts and demons in this world at all.

There are only some animals and plants that have not been discovered by humans, please do not panic, everything has a country, everything has an army.

And the authors of the videos that they saw with their own eyes also came out to clarify, saying that most of the strange creatures in those videos were computer-synthesized.

This has gradually reduced the amount of discussion on the Internet.

But there are many people who have seen those videos with their own eyes, and there are dozens of similar videos, which have to make people reverie.

The young man lying on the chair, Wang Qian, is one of them.

As a three-good boy in the 21st world and an outstanding young pioneer, he does not believe that there are ghosts and monsters in the world.

But this is an era of developed Internet, and as a young Wang Qian, he still reads a lot of science fiction novels on the Internet.

He also fantasized about one day, some super system or invincible adventure would fall on his head, and he would embark on a journey to conquer the world.

It's a pity that he has fantasized about it for several years, and he hasn't seen any adventures fall on his head.

But now it's different, for so many days, he has seen so many strange and bizarre news, what if there is really some anti-heaven exercise, or a monster that has lived for hundreds of years suddenly appears in front of him, saying that he is a one-in-a-million martial arts wizard, and wants to accept him as an apprentice?

Then he went to the pinnacle of his life from then on, and he counterattacked.

Wang Qian, who was immersed in fantasy, was suddenly attracted by a video.

The title of the video is: "Are there really ghosts in this world"?

The cover of the video is in a dilapidated room, a woman in a white robe, her black hair covering her face, falling all the way to her chest, looking a little eerie, really a bit like Sadako.

As soon as his fingers moved, Wang Qian immediately clicked on the video, for fear that he would be blocked by the official again.

At the beginning of the video, a young man in his twenties appeared in the camera and said: "Hello everyone, I'm Xiao Lizi, you should have seen a lot of news about demons and monsters on the Internet recently!"

"Today, I will take you to explore a courtyard in my hometown that has been abandoned for many years, according to the old people in our village, this courtyard used to be a large family in our village, but thirty or forty years ago, I don't know what happened, a family of more than ten people, all died mysteriously overnight."

"Later, the police came to solve the case, but there were no injuries on the bodies of these people, and the cause of death could not be known, and in the end, it was gone."

"Today I will take you to explore this murderous house."

When he spoke, Xiao Lizi's voice trembled a little, it was originally a murderous house, and he was also a little scared because of the recent news of demons and monsters on the Internet.

But in order to increase fans and fire, he also fought hard.

As soon as the camera turned, a large courtyard covering an area of nearly 100 meters appeared, the walls of the courtyard were in tatters, collapsed in some places, covered with moss, and surrounded by half-human-height barren grass.

Xiao Lizi walked to the gate of the courtyard and just wanted to push the door.

"Squeak".

The door actually opened by itself, and Xiao Lizi, who was holding the mobile phone, screamed in fright, but still walked in with courage.

As soon as he entered the door, a gust of wind hit, making Xiao Lizi's body tremble, and the phone almost fell to the ground.

Swallowing his saliva, Xiao Lizi slowly walked towards the courtyard.

The yard was overgrown with weeds and two dilapidated stone tables.

In front of the courtyard is the hall, and on the left and right are the living rooms, kitchens, toilets, etc.

Xiao Lizi tiptoed to the front of the hall, stretched out his trembling left hand, and slowly pushed the door open, a burst of dust fell, and Xiao Lizi hurriedly retreated.

The dust cleared, and the dilapidated hall appeared in everyone's eyes.

Four stone pillars stand in the middle of the hall, and above the hall are two chairs, a small coffee table sandwiched between the chairs, and two rows of wooden chairs on the left and right.

It was covered with dust and the house was covered with cobwebs.

"Huh...... Woo ......".

In the empty hall, two strange cries suddenly sounded, like a woman's cry, which sounded very penetrating and chilling.

Wang Qian, who was in front of the mobile phone screen, heard this cry, and many goosebumps instantly appeared on his arms, and his body shrank.

Suddenly, a white figure appeared in front of the mobile phone camera, and it was the woman in white on the cover of the video.

Dressed in white, with long hair covering his face, his shoulders shrugged down, and his hands hanging down at his waist, revealing a pair of pale palms, but his nails were long and jet-black.

The most important thing is that the woman's feet did not hit the ground, but were suspended in the air.

Xiao Lizi saw the woman in front of him, exclaimed, the camera shook wildly, and ran out of the yard with a roll.

The video hasn't finished playing, and the official prompt has reappeared, the video is in violation and is being rectified.

Wang Qian raised his head and exhaled, although he was not at the scene, but looking at it on his mobile phone, it was just as scary.

He couldn't help but think, is this woman in white really a ghost? Or Xiao Lizi found someone to direct and act herself, and came to attract attention.

But seeing this little plum's reaction doesn't seem to be pretending, is there really a demon and a monster in the world, maybe there are really cultivators.

Thinking of this, the corners of Wang Gan's mouth showed a somewhat obscene smile, it seems that he has to buy two copies of the Immortal Cultivation Encyclopedia on a certain treasure to take a look, maybe he can really cultivate immortals?

"Money bank, I know to hold my mobile phone all day long, I don't do anything, I don't sweep the dirty floor, and I don't cook food."

A loud roar came, which frightened Wang Gan's body on the chair and rolled down directly from the chair.
