When you say goodbye to old friends, you will feel joy from the bottom of your heart. Memories are filled with the deepening and depiction of the beautiful scenes of the past, and even the quarrels of the past will be diluted to the point of bleaching like paper.

Fang Fan recalled the fishy smell in the bathroom just now, which was all due to Su Shuang's parents. He coughed lightly and said.

"I vomited something."

"Doesn't it stink?"

Fang Fan nodded and said.

"yes. How do you know? ”

Mo Zhu suddenly frowned and said.

"That's the medicine that separates the yang here."

"Huh?"

Fang Fan looked at Mo Zhu dumbfounded and said.

"How is it possible, what medicine can stink so much?"

Mo Zhu pondered for a moment and said.

"Do you know the rumors here?"

"You mean the haunted rumors that you can hear the cries of women and the laughter of babies every night?"

"That's right. Those are not rumors. The woman's cry symbolizes death, and the baby's laughter symbolizes rebirth. Here's another rumor, you know? ”

"Cannibalism?"

Mo Zhu laughed and said.

"You know everything. That's right, cannibalism is also real. Whenever there is an outsider, they will be targeted, but not everyone will be their target. Only those who are not right-minded will become their meal. ”

Fang Fan asked with some puzzlement.

"What do you mean? I didn't understand it too much. ”

Mo Zhusuo (xìng) put away the clothes stall, then put it behind (shēn) and said.

"I haven't seen you for a long time, find a place to have a drink, and I'll talk to you carefully."

"No problem."

Fang Fan followed Mo Zhu to a food stall, and the boss (rè) (qíng) took the menu, put it in front of Fang Fan, and said.

"Whatever you like, you can eat."

Fang Fan glanced at the menu and found that the words on it were all opposites, he looked at Mo Zhu and asked.

"How so?"

Mo Zhu said with a smile.

"It took me a lot of time to get used to it when I first came, but in fact, the world of people and the world of ghosts are like the inside and outside of a mirror. Man can only see himself in a mirror, but a ghost can see man through a mirror. After all, ghosts exist in the 3.5-dimensional space, a spiritual world that is a little higher than humans. ”

"Could it be that you can see us in the mirror all the time?"

Mo Zhu nodded and said.

"I see it occasionally, and I expose myself after looking at it for a long time."

With that, Mo Zhu shouted to the boss.

"Nothing to look at, so let's go as usual. A case of beer. ”

"Okay."

Fang Fan shook his head and said with a smile.

"Unexpectedly, there is no difference between the world of ghosts and the world of people."

At this time, the boss took the beer, and after the beer was poured into the wine glass, there was a rustling sound, and the two cups touched, Mo Zhu said.

"The difference is big, the ghost world is more orderly."

As he spoke, he took out a form from his arms and handed it to Fang Fan, saying.

"All of the above are corresponding, and if you violate one of the rules, you will be taken to the corresponding hell to be punished."

Fang Fan looked at what was written on it, if he liked to lie and sow discord, he would be taken to cut his tongue. If they are the most vicious people, they will be taken to live with animals, and eventually they will be turned into food for animals. and so on, the regulations are as detailed as a cow's hair. Fang Fan returned the form to Mo Zhu and said.

"Aren't you changing your face now?"

"Pretty much. I now finally understand the meaning of the phrase "no rules, no circle". ”

The boss brought a few side dishes and said.

"You drink first, and the big dish will be fine in a while."

Mo Zhu readily agreed.

"Okay."

Fang Fan took a bite and said.

"Why doesn't this dish taste good?"

"Because you're a living person, of course you find it boring. I don't taste the same, this boss is the best in the neighborhood. ”

"Then why doesn't the beer smell the same?"

"Because liquids are no different from humans and ghosts."

"That..."

Fang Fan was just about to speak, but Mo Zhu stretched out his hand to interrupt him and said.

"I'll tell you about it later. Let's get back to the point, do you know who they will be targeted? ”

Fang Fan shook his head and said.

"I don't know."

"To put it simply, those who are very greedy. Did you live in Rose Place when you came to the island? ”

"That's right, I still know Su Shuang there."

Mo Zhu smiled and said.

"Su Shuang knows all the outsiders who go to the island. And when they first met her, she was riding a bicycle, and she looked simple and lovely. ”

Fang Fan looked at Mo Zhu dumbfounded and said.

"How do you know?"

"Because the first person every outsider on the island sees is Su Shuang, and the hotel they stay in will always be Gem Fang."

"Could it be that Su Shuang and their family are not people?"

"I can't say that, they're half a person at most."

"Count is count, don't count. What does it mean to be half human? ”

"Because they are the ones who eat people (ròu). They rely on cannibalism (ròu) to slow down their aging, and the woman even absorbs the essence of the man to maintain her youthful appearance. ”

With that, Su Shuang's parents did look young. But Su Shuang looks normal, she shouldn't be able to eat people (ròu), right? ”

"I don't know. What I just told you is still sued by someone else, don't talk nonsense. ”

Let's talk about it. Mo Zhu pointed to several figures in the distance and said.

"Look, those people over there have only been eaten for a few days, if you want to know, you can go over and ask."

Fang Fan was about to get up (shēn), but was stopped by Mo Zhu again, and said.

"I advise you not to go, people who have just become ghosts are angry, and those who are eaten like this are even more resentful."

Fang Fan sat down again, and he looked around. Suddenly he was infected by the bustling atmosphere here, he hadn't been so at ease for a long time, he picked up the wine glass and touched it with Mo Zhu, and said.

"(ài) What the hell. Drink a meal and get comfortable. ”

"That's right. Hahaha. ”

The beer in the box was already halfway down, Mo Zhu said slightly drunk.

"Fang Fan, as a friend, I advise you to get out of here quickly."

"I can't go, I'm here for something."

"What's the matter?"

Fang Fan didn't know whether to tell Mo Zhu about Zhang Ze's death, and told him that he was afraid that he would be excited, and if he didn't tell him, he was afraid that he would think too much. After pondering for a moment, Fang Fan said.

"It's just a matter of work."

Mo Zhu laughed and said.

"Do you still have to work so hard? After I die, I know that it is better to be good to no one than to myself. ”

"Could it be that you blame Zhang Ze in your heart?"

"If I had blamed him, I'd have become a ghost. How can I still drink and chat with you here? I never blamed him, but why didn't he come with you this time? ”

Fang Fan was speechless for a while, and prevaricated.

"He's been busy with other things lately."

"Oh, is that Wanli okay?"

"Okay, all right."

"That's good."

After that, the wine glasses of the two touched again, and at this time, someone was greeting Mo Zhu and shouting.

"Mo Zhu, it's almost time, it's almost time to go."

Mo Zhu looked at the time and said.

"Fang Fan, listen to me, you leave quickly."

"What time is coming?"

"Don't ask, let's go."

With that, Mo Zhu followed the people in the market and walked away. The streets and alleys became empty again, and suddenly the lights around were extinguished, leaving Fang Fan alone to stand in the dark. At this moment, there was a voice from behind him (shēn).

"Fang Fan."

Fang Fan turned (shēn), and then Moonlight saw that the person who called him turned out to be Su Shuang. Xiao Shuang asked.

"Why are you calling me out in such a hurry?"

When Fang Fan gave Su Shuang a tip before, he put a note in the money, saying that he was waiting for her in the square at twelve o'clock at midnight, and it seemed that Su Shuang took out the note when he gave the money to her father. At this time, her eyes were staring at Fang Fan, her eyes were shining, but Fang Fan was frightened when she looked at it. Fang Fan took out a photo from his pocket and asked.

"The name of the person in the photo is Owl, do you know him?"

"We've never had this one here."

Fang Fan put the photo away, then looked at her suspiciously, and continued.

"And what's the deal with you cannibalism?"

Fang Fan suddenly noticed that Su Shuang's eyes widened, obviously she didn't expect Fang Fan to know about this, and he would question her so calmly. Su Shuang tugged at the hem of her skirt and asked.

"How do you know?"

"You don't have to worry about that, I like to know why you eat people."

Su Shuang said with a pale face.

"Yes, you're right. We do eat people, but I swear I never ate them. They are also forced to eat people. ”

"Oh? Is there something (bī) in them? ”

"It's a curse."

"What curse?"

"I smell something fishy in your room, I think you've been to a ghost town, right?"

Fang Fan chuckled in his heart, then nodded and said.

"That's right, I've already been."

"Actually, not all the ghosts you see there, there are also some half-human, half-ghosts, and the reason why they became like that is because they reject cannibalism (ròu), and they are gradually cursed to become half-human, half-ghost monsters.

It seems that there is a god living on this island, and he is not used to the greedy and shameless faces of people, so he has come up with this way to make humans kill each other. Everyone who came to the island would be taken by me to the Rose Place, and they would be served a meal cooked with my mother's blood at dinner. The person who eats this meal will not enter the ghost town, and the significance of this step is to test whether the person who eats believes in the kindness of others, and is not a suspicious person who is always suspicious. Those who didn't eat ended up in ghost towns, and many were scared to death.

The last step is a test for greed and lust, if you fall into the mother's circle (tào), that person will immediately be robbed of his essence by his mother, and his corpse will become food for the villagers. Ghosts will wander in ghost towns, waiting for reincarnation. ”

After listening, Fang Fan let out a long breath and said.

"I see, it was so dangerous just now. What's the matter with the woman crying and the baby laughing? ”

"A woman's cry is the wail of those who have been eaten, and a baby's laughter is the joy of a reincarnated person on their way to a new life."

Fang Fan nodded, it seemed that the meaning was similar to what Mo Zhu said, the matter of Wading Village and Ghost Town had almost been understood, and now it seemed that there was nothing to worry about, as long as he found the whereabouts of the owl, he planned to leave here immediately. There is only one day left before the bet with the owl, and if he spends one more day on the island, he can get the trade route from the owl, but if it is not clear that the matter (qíng) will really go so smoothly.
