"Did you hear that a female resident of Building 75 committed suicide by jumping from the 13th floor this morning."

"I know that family, this woman is a single mother, the child was bitten to death by the monster a few days ago, and the whole person is crazy, and now he must be committing suicide because he feels that he has no head to live."

"It's miserable, it's terrible..."

"Oh, I still have the heart to sympathize with others, we are too busy to take care of ourselves now, maybe we will die tomorrow, I don't think that big hole in the sky is safe."

"When is this day a head, I don't know what the country is doing, and I haven't dealt with it until now, do they not care about our life and death?"

"Alas, when is this day a head!"

When I returned from the Ghost Eradication Society, when I returned to the community where my home was located, several residents with panicked expressions were talking in whispers, with unconcealable panic and uneasiness in their words, as well as some dissatisfaction and condemnation for the country's failure to rescue in time.

Hearing this, Jiang Chen and I, who were carrying large bags and small bags, paused slightly, and a faint sadness flashed on our faces.

It has been three days since the ghost baby appeared, and although the order in Yang City has stabilized in the past few days, tragedies like this female resident continue to occur.

Because of the huge pressure and panic, as well as the fact that many people's relatives and friends died in this catastrophe, many people couldn't bear it and chose to commit suicide these days.

However, I can understand this, seeing my own child die in the mouth of a ghost baby, this mother's pain is unimaginable, which also makes my heart even more uncomfortable, and it is really a torture for me as a cultivator to watch this kind of tragedy happen helplessly.

We didn't stay in the neighborhood for long, and the two of us went straight home.

In the past few days, a lot has happened in Yangcheng.

The people of Yangdong District first evacuated the most dangerous Yangdong District with the help of "relevant departments", so that Yangdong District was completely sealed off, and those evacuated people were properly resettled.

At the same time, Yangcheng entered a state of emergency and imposed a curfew, which prohibits going out from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m., and offenders are punished with verbal warnings and jail time.

This is also a matter of no choice, the period is special, in order to maintain order, such emergency measures can only be taken, and this quickly made the order of Yangcheng tend to be stable, the violent incidents have been greatly reduced, and the situation has been avoided from getting out of control further.

In addition, regarding the countermeasures against ghost caves and resentful spirits, the Yang Bureau has also done a lot of work.

The Academy of Sciences has indeed developed instruments that can absorb dark qi, but the number is small, and the efficiency is impressive, and it can only play a drop in the bucket for the dark qi emitted by the huge ghost cave.

The newly developed spiritual power detector is somewhat useful, although there is still an upper limit to the value that the spiritual power detector can measure, but this instrument can now detect not only soul power, but also dark energy.

This is a great help for our work, because as long as the value that the probe can detect is above a certain limit, it means that the wraith (token) is a potential threat, and then a strong person will immediately come to annihilate it.

Now the sky in Yangcheng is full of these miniature robots, and we cultivators also have a pair of glasses in our hands to facilitate our movements.

It's just that these means are still far from solving the problem, but to be honest, there is no other way to solve the problem now, only to wait for Sun Hong and the three of them to have a success, and then the crisis will naturally be lifted, so now the strong people in Yang Province are looking forward to the success of Sun Hong and the three of them, and it can be said that the three of them carry the hope of 50 million people in Yang Province.

Since the end of the meeting that day, Sun Hong and the three of them have disappeared, and Shen Ming has disappeared together, thinking that Shen Ming is trying to help the three strong people break through the three stars, I hope they can live up to expectations, otherwise we may really die this time.

However, although Sun Hong and the three of them carry our great hopes, they can't put the hopes of 50 million people only on them, so Yang Bureau suggests that all the strong people should pay close attention to cultivation and make the overall strength to a higher level.

Moreover, if you don't hurry up your cultivation, it may be too late, as the dark qi in the air continues to increase, the difficulty of cultivation will definitely gradually increase, so in the past few days, in addition to performing some tasks assigned by the Demon Removal Society, I have been concentrating on cultivation, and I went out today to buy vegetables.

Speaking of which, in this special period now, basically the entire Yangcheng has been suspended, and few people who go out to work are basically hiding at home, so that they can be safe and accompany their families.

According to most people's concepts, even if they die in the end, they have to die with their family and loved ones, and money is not so important, anyway, the "relevant departments" will distribute food to various communities every day, and it is not difficult to meet the needs of life.

Therefore, in the past few days, it has basically been deserted outside, at least 90% of the shops have been closed, even in places like the Hospital Patrol Bureau, the number of strikers is quite large, but relatively speaking, it is smaller than other places, after all, the consciousness of people in this kind of department is relatively high, and many of them are cultivators.

Of course, there are many cultivators who go on strike, and in this emergency period, even cultivators have many people who choose to avoid the problem, which also causes Su Liuliu and Zhao Kun to put a lot of effort into maintaining morale, but it still can't play a big role.

In fact, if you think about it, cultivators are also human beings, they will also be afraid, and they will be helpless and desperate, even if they have strong psychological endurance and deep ideological awareness, but in a desperate situation, there will still be many cultivators' mentality collapse, which also makes Yangcheng have a recent atmosphere of being happy in time.

If you want me to say, this kind of mentality is not good, if you don't face the situation positively and optimistically, it will be even more hopeless, as soon as I think of this, I can't help but touch the bullet in my trouser pocket.

This is my baby.

In the past few days, the bullets left by my mother have made me shiny, this is my only means of saving my life, as long as the three-star ghost baby does not come out, I can't die, I just hope that before the situation completely collapses, Sun Hong's side can make some progress.

"Coming back?"

Seeing us push the door in, Lin Wei and Ye Yuyou, who were cultivating in the living room, hurriedly came over and took over the large bags of things in our hands, which were all filled with pills and some food, all of which we brought back from the Demon Eradication Society.

"Divide the pills, everyone hurry up and cultivate." Without saying much, I shouted directly into the room, and then many acquaintances walked out of the room, and the room suddenly became lively for a while.

Speaking of which, the house is really lively now, because there are nine people.

As for why there are so many people, in fact, we have to start from three days ago.

Due to the influx of a large number of strong people from other cities, in order to facilitate the placement of them, the meaning of the Ghost Eradication Society is to let the locals of Yangcheng arrange some strong people from other places to live in their homes temporarily, so many strong people have been placed here with me, which also makes my home very lively at this time.

Needless to say, Lin Huai and Xiao Yuting, two people who have never settled in Yangcheng, have to live in my house temporarily, and Jiang Chen, Xie Zhen, Lin Feng, and these friends who are in the provincial capital are not locals, so naturally they will not be an exception.

These are all permanent residents.

From time to time, Qin Jiujiu Kangqiao came back to see us and arranged some tasks for us, and Jiang Yuan often came to see me, a junior brother, and there were many other visits, such as some friends of the Sun family, as well as classmates from junior high school and high school.

It's lively when there are more people, but in this depressing environment, it's actually difficult for everyone to be happy, because the pressure is very high, and our daily work is not even communication except for cultivation and cultivation, or to help deal with some troubles in Yangcheng, after all, some things can't be solved by patrolling alone.

In fact, the nine of us also happened to be assigned to a group, and we usually have any large-scale tasks that we are all easy to do, such as regularly cleaning up the derivative spirits that appear in the Yangdong District.

The leader of our group is Gangwon, but a top powerhouse like Gangwon, who is a late-stage two-star powerhouse, usually stays in the Ghost Eradication Society, so he doesn't live with us.

The location of my new home is not Yangdong District, but Yanghe District next to Yangdong District, and the geographical location is right on the border of Yangdong District, so it can be said that a few hundred meters further is the enchantment.

Therefore, we live here, and we can also play a role in protecting the safety of Yanghe District, because as long as something happens in the barrier, we can react as soon as possible and rush over to deal with the problem.

"Didn't Lin Huai come back with you?" Xiao Yuting couldn't help but ask.

"Not yet, he should come back later, the ghost removal club needs Lin Huai." I replied.

As a mobile encyclopedia of resentful spirits, Lin Huai's importance in this period is actually no worse than that of those powerhouses in the late stage of the second star, so Lin Huai often stays in the ghost eradication society.

And although Xiao Yuting also knows a lot about this, Lin Huai doesn't want Xiao Yuting to run around, so Lin Huai has been busy these days, and Xiao Yuting has been busy cultivating at home.

"Okay." Hearing this, Xiao Yuting had no choice but to nod.

At this time, Xie Zhen asked, "How is the situation outside?" ”

"It's still like that, basically not many people go out, and there are paper-burning people everywhere on the roadside, like a dead city." I sighed while handing out the pills: "And I feel that the sky is getting darker and darker outside, the ghost cave has already covered most of the Yangdong District, or it will not be long before it will be expanded to our side, and a new enchantment will have to be expanded at that time." ”

"That's right..."

After listening to my answer, everyone's mood was a little heavy.

"Let's not talk about that, let's eat together, the ingredients I brought are all medicinal food, which is beneficial to our cultivation." I smiled, in order to cope with the current predicament, the Yang Bureau and the Ghost Eradication Association can be said to have taken out all these years' reserves.

Anyway, if the people in Yang Province die, these things will be useless, so the Yang Bureau Ghost Elimination Association is willing to take them out and use them, in short, any treasure will be distributed to many cultivators in Yang City for free during this time.

Especially those of us who are above two stars, we will get more benefits, after all, we are the main force against the resentful spirits.

During the meal, everyone chatted for a while, and the topic was nothing more than the ghost baby, the ghost cave, and the derivative spirit, and at the same time, our eyes frequently looked at the ghost cave in the direction of the enchantment.

These days, the ghost cave above our heads has always been a nightmare for all Yangcheng people, including us.

Seeing Lin Wei looking out of the window from time to time, I couldn't help but whisper in her ear: "What's the matter, dear, are you afraid?" ”

"I'm afraid, but I'm not afraid." Lin Wei shook her head and muttered, "I miss my mother and my grandfather a little, I don't know what happened to them." ”

Hearing this, I suddenly realized that Lin Wei was homesick.

This is not surprising, in this case, basically everyone will miss home, miss their relatives, such as Liang Yu, Zhang Hao, Xu Jing and other classmates, although they know that we will be safer here, but still return to their own home, stay with their families at all times, and protect their safety.

In fact, this is also the norm in Yangcheng, and basically most Yangcheng locals choose to stay at home.

However, this is also one thing that the senior management of the Yangcheng Bureau is happy to see, because the homes of the strong people in Yangcheng are scattered all over Yangcheng, and we are actually staying at home to protect the safety of the people in the nearby area.

This is also a responsibility that we are clearly told from above.

If you see a situation in the vicinity, you must report it as soon as possible and deal with it as much as you can, so as to avoid further escalation of the situation and lead to more casualties.

"Don't worry, auntie and grandpa, they will definitely be fine, Yang Bureau is the safest place in Yang Province at present." I took Lin Wei's hand and said with a smile: "The people of the Yang Bureau will definitely protect them well." ”

"Hmm." Lin Wei nodded slightly, and the sadness on her face decreased slightly.

Seeing Lin Wei's face softened, I was thinking in my heart, fortunately, we chose to move my grandfather's family to Yangju at that time, otherwise this ghost baby attack might not be affected.

If Grandpa's family really had an accident in this attack, let alone Lin Wei, I would be in great pain, and it is estimated that Lin Wei may completely collapse, but fortunately this situation did not happen, and we moved Grandpa's family away by mistake but protected them.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but think of my parents, and I sighed in my heart: "I don't know where my parents are now..."

It would be nice if they were.

With their strength, if they are present, let alone a mere ghost baby, it is estimated that they can directly break this space.

Just as I was thinking about it, there was a sudden scream mixed with endless horror outside the window.

"Help! There are monsters! ”
