Chapter 479: Phantom of the Park
I raised my eyebrows, "Sir, what happened before this, can you tell me about it?" ”
The other party sighed deeply, walked up to me with his hands behind his back and said, "Two or three months ago, a young couple seemed to be obstructed by their families, not letting them be together, stupidly ran here to jump into the river to martyrdom, when the rescuers rescued them, they have been dead for a long time, although the person is dead, but this ghost is not gone, you say that you don't say I am superstitious." ”
My heart moved, there was something little known about this.
"Of course not, there are many phenomena that cannot be explained by science, and I am not an atheist."
"That's good, I said you should leave quickly, don't stay here."
I nodded, waiting for him to continue.
The gentleman said that after the death of the young couple, the place began to be haunted, and some people said that they wanted to find a substitute, so at night they would drown the night tourists in the river, and they used the corpse to revive their souls.
There was a drunk man who wandered in the park and fell into the water, probably because they did it, but then the drunk was lucky to survive.
According to him, he was walking on the shore at that time, and although he was drunk, he could not see where the river was, but as he walked, he saw a man standing there in front of him, beckoning him to come and ask him where to go from a place.
He was already drunk, so he didn't think much about it, and staggered towards the other party, but he didn't expect the other party to open his mouth and say, "Where does Huangquan Road come from?" ”
The drunkard was startled, and the next second he had already stumbled and fallen into the river.
During the time when he was unconscious, he vaguely saw a man and a woman dragging him towards a very dark place, he didn't want to go, but those two people were very fierce, dragging him fiercely.
But I don't know why he broke free later, and the two men stood in the distance and glared at him with resentment, and they didn't come to drag him again, and then he woke up.
"Obviously, the two people I dragged him were just looking for a stand-in, it's so evil, I didn't cherish my life before I was alive, and I still want to find a stand-in after death, this is an unforgivable sin at all, you go back quickly!" The man pointed in the direction of the park gate and motioned for me to leave.
I'm so excited about this rumor that it should be true.
In order to dispel the other party's concerns, I pretended to walk out of the park with him.
I got in the car and sat in the car for a while, I guess almost all the visitors in the park had left, and I saw that it was almost 12 o'clock, so I re-entered the park.
In fact, there is no staff on duty in the park at this time, and I heard Zhao Heizi say that there will be staff here during the day to make simple patrols to prevent people from falling into the water, destroying trees and flowers, etc., and there will be no staff at night.
The street lamps in the park are only one at a long distance, and they are also relatively dim, and the park is reflected in the park at this moment, like a touch of twilight sunlight shining in from the depths of the forest, revealing a deep yin air.
When I arrived at the stone arch bridge, the evil aura on the surface of the river was much stronger than before.
I wandered back and forth on the stone arch bridge, secretly observing the movement around me, and according to what the man had just said, after 12 o'clock, the souls of the couple would run out to find a substitute, and the time was almost up.
After half an hour, the surroundings were still calm, and I got off the stone arch bridge and walked along the river.
Although the evil aura on the surface of the river never dissipated, and the aura around me became more and more complicated, I stayed until 1:30, and the pair of dead spirits still did not appear.
Is it because I'm not an ordinary person, so the pair of revenants sensed my peculiarity and didn't dare to appear?
I took out a piece of rune paper and drew a rune on it, throwing it on the surface of the river, and sure enough, after a few seconds, the rune paper burned out on the surface of the river.
Obviously, the evil aura here is very strong, so the rune paper will automatically release the mana after sensing it, and there is indeed a problem below, but because of my existence, they dare not show their heads.
I immediately turned around and walked out of the park, and decided to ask Ai Ling and Long to help me tomorrow, and play a couple with Zhao Heizi to attract the pair of dead souls to come out, through which I should be able to ask about the situation in the river and some clues about the day Man Man fell into the water.
When I returned home, I meditated and cultivated for a while, and before tracking Xue Xiaxia's traces, I had consumed a lot of essence and vitality, and my consumption of myself was quite large.
Before going to bed, I kept silently reciting Xue Xiaxia's name, trying to communicate with her in my dreams, but I was disappointed, I didn't dream until dawn all night.
After work, I waited for Ai Ling and Long at the door of her company.
A few minutes later, she ran over quickly with her bag, "It's really the sun is coming out in the west, and you actually came to pick me up from work." ”
She pulled open the door and sat in the car, looking at me with some excitement.
I curled the corners of my mouth a little stiffly, "Where do you want to eat?" ”
"Whatever, you can do it." She put her bag on the back seat and fastened her seatbelt.
I stepped on the gas pedal and headed towards one of her favorite restaurants.
When I got to the restaurant and sat down, I was still thinking about how to open the topic and have a showdown with her, I was going to ask her for help today, but I didn't expect her to talk straight to the point.
"Xue Xiaxia is gone, you are more anxious than anyone else, you came to me because of her business, I know, after all, she is also my good friend, I can't sit idly by."
I looked up at her with some embarrassment, she smiled bitterly, "This girl has been missing for several days, I know that the whole person is stunned after that, no matter what, I hope to do my best to find her, you say, what do you want me to do?" ”
Ai Ling, who is sitting in front of me at the moment, makes me feel "strange", which is completely different from the previous one who was a little unreasonable and arrogant, which made me very moved.
"Yes, she's missing, and I'm trying to find her whereabouts right now, so I'd like you to help you play a play and attract the pair of souls out of the park river, so I should be able to find some clues."
"Revenant?" She stared at me with wide eyes, her face full of horror and suspicion.
"Yes, so you have to overcome your fears, don't worry, I will make sure you are safe, they will not hurt you, and my good brother Zhao Heizi will go with you."
She folded her hands and lowered her head to think for a moment, as if she had made a lot of determination, she nodded heavily, "Okay, what do you say I'm going to do?" ”
I told her my plan, she didn't say yes or bad, she pursed her lips and looked out the window, her expression became solemn and a little sad, I didn't dare to interrupt her, asked her if she agreed, we were silent.
After about six or seven minutes, she asked faintly, "If, I mean, if Xue Xiaxia can't come back, then is it possible for us?" ”
I "chuckled" in my heart, I didn't expect her to ask such a question at this time.
She turned her face to look at me directly, "I know you love her very much, although you have a hard mouth and don't admit your feelings for her, but I'm not stupid, I know, can you just answer my question just now?" ”
I mustered up the courage to look at her, I didn't want to deceive her, and I didn't want to disappoint anyone.
After a few seconds I shook my head, "I'm sorry, no matter what the outcome of her is, it's impossible for us to position you as a good friend from the beginning......"
"Alright, don't talk about it." She interrupted me, took a deep breath, her eyes moistened, and moistened, "It's okay, you tell me this at this time to show that you are very honest, but I still say the same thing, I will not give up until the last minute." ”
"Don't ...... you"
"Say something else!" She raised her wrist and rubbed her eyes, and I realized that her tears had fallen out, making her foundation a little wet and moist.
After eating, I sent her over, I took a detour to the bookstore, Ma Yuan hadn't opened the door yet, I sensed his breath, it was still very vague, and I couldn't locate his exact location, but he was indeed seriously injured by me that day, if it was a lower-level demon, he would have been gone.
At 11 o'clock in the evening, I took Ai Ling and Long to the hotel, she was wearing a windbreaker and tied a ponytail, she seemed to be very nervous, and she didn't speak when they met.
I made some desserts for the office. I guess eating something sweet will make her feel better.
"This is a mango mille-feuille made today, how can you taste the craftsmanship of the hotel master."
Ai Ling, Long paused, reached over and picked up the fork and took a bite, "It's not bad." ”
I glanced at Zhao Heizi and said to Ai Ling and Long, "Don't worry, what I promised you will never have an accident." ”
Ai Ling, Long raised her head and glanced at me, "It doesn't matter, even if I die, I will die in your hands, I am willing." ”
"This, how is this possible!"
Zhao Heizi also smiled a little embarrassedly, "No, you go over with the amulet, they can't hurt you, at most they will get you into the water, but don't worry, with the blessing of the amulet and mana, you won't drown in the water, and you will be fine soon." ”
Ai Ling, Long put down the fork and said to me a little impatiently, "Okay, okay, don't treat me as a three-year-old child, I'm not a coward, anyway, this is an opportunity to save my good sister, when will it pass?" ”
I was relieved by her attitude, she was really not afraid, she was a very kind and righteous girl.
I looked at the time, "We'll go back at 12 o'clock, now let's rest for a while." ”
"Okay, I'll play on my phone, and you call me when I go." She walked straight to the sofa and lay down on her side, took out her mobile phone and swiped the drama.
I confirmed the plan with Zhao Heizi, packed up the magic weapons to be used, rested for a while, and when the time was almost up, he took Ai Ling and Long to drive to the park first, and I went 10 minutes late to them.
