Chapter 278: Joint Intimidation
This feeling of yin breeze blowing on my body is not the first time I have experienced it.
The last time I was in Linnan, when the thing hidden in the dead body was separated from the dead body and floated away, I also felt a gust of wind blowing in my face.
I even dodged sideways to let the wind pass me.
But today I can't hide, because I still hold the woman I love in my hands.
She was originally a heroine among women, but perhaps because of me, a man who loved her, she inevitably showed her delicate and timid nature as a woman;
Or maybe it was the terrible sight she saw, and she exclaimed, turning around and burying her whole body in my arms, and sobbing rapidly, trembling slightly.
Suddenly, I was furious, and I raised my voice and shouted, "What the hell are you?" If you have a grudge against me, then come at me, why frighten women? β
Of course no one paid any attention to me.
But I can already be 100% sure that what Meng Xiang saw was not an illusion. Because the illusion will disappear in the blink of an eyeβjust like I used to.
But Meng Xiang not only stared at the shadow for a long time, but even saw the shadow walking towards her.
What's more, I also felt the "yin wind blowing on my body", if it was just Meng Xiang's illusion, I would never have felt this way.
So what Meng Xiang saw was either a ghost, or that monster was driven out of my brain and floated in the air like a ghost.
And that feeling of the wind blowing in my body suddenly disappeared after I shouted and asked.
That made me more and more sure that there was indeed something that was scaring Meng Xiang.
So I patted Meng Xiang on the shoulder and softly comforted her, "Don't be afraid, it's gone, there's nothing left!" β
"Huh?" Meng Xiang raised his teary eyes to look at me, but he still didn't dare to raise his head from my arms, "You didn't see it, how do you know it's gone?" β
"I don't see it, but I can feel it!" I'll be honest.
McQuay had said before that he could perceive ghosts as long as they were within three meters of him, and I think I had this very special ability to perceive after a series of unexplained events.
"What do you mean...... I did see ...... What is it, not an illusion or anything like that? Meng Xiang asked me with teary eyes.
"Yes!" I nodded, "If it's an illusion, you must be a god, and it should be gone!" β
"Then you say...... Will it ...... Treat me like you did to Zhu Sifeng? I haven't hurt anyone, why did I see it...... These things? β
These words made my heart condense, and I hurriedly looked at Meng Xiang with two eyes, and asked her cautiously: "Why did you mention Zhu Sifeng?" What do you think...... Is Zhang Xiaoyun scaring you? β
"I don't know!" Meng Xiang shook his head, "What do I mean...... It's me who didn't hurt anyone, why...... These things for me to see? β
I understood what she meant, she was just suspicious that she saw a ghost, but she didn't think it was Zhang Xiaoyun.
I also don't think Zhang Xiaoyun is scaring her.
Although Zhang Xiaoyun definitely won't like Meng Xiang because of me, first of all, Zhang Xiaoyun has disappeared, and if she shows up again, she will contact me first, instead of scaring Meng Xiang first.
Secondly, Meng Xiang had already seen these things when he was in Linnan City, and Zhang Xiaoyun, without the company of that relief, would not have been able to go that far at all.
So what Meng Xiang saw, even if it was really a ghost, it wouldn't be Zhang Xiaoyun.
So far, as far as I know, the first person who has the ability to cause this phenomenon is, of course, Zhang Xiaoyun;
the second is the thing that has repeatedly "borrowed corpses to return souls" in Linnan City;
Third, it's the alien monster I offended.
And I've always thought that the alien monster is more likely to be at work.
But whatever is going on, I just hope it will be directed at me, not at Meng Xiang.
Meng Xiang finally raised his head from my arms under my repeated assurances, and looked around in fear, only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.
"What am I seeing?" She asked me again.
She was originally heroic, but at this time, she looked delicate.
That made me feel pity, but I could only shake my head.
"I don't know, but I think it didn't really want to hurt you, it just scared you!"
"But why did it scare me? Am I ...... Offended it? Meng Xiang was a little emotional and asked.
"Perhaps...... It's not you who offend it, it's me who offend it! I replied, in a solemn tone.
"What do you mean?"
"I told you before that the last time I was unconscious, it was because ...... There was a very strange unknown species that entered my brain and controlled me, and although I tried my best to get out of its control, it was ...... I'm not sure it's been wiped out by me, maybe it's all about it! β
The more Meng Xiang listened, the widening of his eyes.
"What do you mean, it will ...... me too"
"I don't think it's going to do you any good!" I hurriedly picked up her words soothingly, "As long as you ...... If you are willing to take the initiative to leave me, it will not hurt you again! β
"What kind of are you talking about?" The horror on Meng Xiang's face quickly turned into disgust, and he actually directly burst out with a foul word, "How could I leave you?" I don't care what it is, and since it wants to hurt you, I'd rather it hurt me! β
I was full of emotion when I said this, but I had the same thoughts as her: I would rather that monster harm me than it hurt Meng Xiang.
The whole town was not very big, and by the time Meng Xiang saw the terrifying ghost, the two of us were not far from the mall where the laboratory was located.
What's more, Meng Xiang was frightened by this, so we naturally didn't dare to continue wandering around the town, but immediately returned to the mall.
Because I was scared, Meng Xiang let me stay in her room that night.
But just as I was making out with her, she saw something terrible again.
She was obviously pressed under me with her eyes closed, but suddenly she screamed and pushed me away from her, and with so much force that she pushed me directly from the bed to the bottom of the bed.
"Baby, baby, what's wrong with you? Did you see something again? β
I summoned the nickname that I would only call in bed, and threw myself back on the bed, hugging Meng Xiang, who was still screaming, into my arms.
"It's here again! It's here again! Colliers, I obviously have my eyes closed, but ...... But I can see it clearly! β
Meng Xiang trembled, and suddenly let out a "wow" cry.
"Officer Meng? What happened to Officer Meng? There was a knock at the door outside.
The door of this dormitory is not soundproof, and Meng Xiang's screams have already alarmed the others.
"It's okay, she's having a nightmare!" I hurriedly responded loudly.
"Advisor Gao is also in the room!" The people outside asked more, as if they were a little worried about whether it was because of my rudeness to Meng Xiang.
"She's my fiancΓ©e, do you think I can be in her room?" I raised my voice, a little impatient.
The people outside finally didn't ask any more, I hurriedly lowered my voice and continued to comfort Meng Xiang, who had been trembling and crying.
But seeing her so weak and frightened, my heart was twisted.
When she was a little quieter, I gently persuaded her to leave Nanchuan and return to Linnan early tomorrow morning.
But Meng Xiang immediately shook his head.
"I'm not going back! I said that if it really wants to hurt you, then I'd rather it hurt me! Besides, all this is your speculation, in case I return to Linnan, it continues to haunt me, and I will ...... Isn't there even a chance to complain to you? β
What she said was not unreasonable, so I had to sigh softly and hug her tightly.
Nothing happened that night, and Meng Xiang didn't have nightmares. Even the next day, Meng Xiang didn't see that terrible thing again.
It was that expert Zhao who asked Meng Xiang with concern what happened last night, and we also found a reason to prevaricate.
Then Expert Zhao suddenly mentioned an incident that happened in the past.
"Advisor Gao, I always want to ask you what happened at that time and why...... You glanced at me, and all of a sudden, I felt ...... There is a ...... that comes from the heart It seems like the feeling of throwing yourself to the ground? I've never cast myself on anyone in my life, and now that I think about it, it's like a dream, and I don't know what was going on at the time! β
When he said this, there was no one else around, and he deliberately lowered his voice, and it could be seen that he, like everyone else, still felt very ashamed in retrospect.
So I shook my head helplessly, just like everyone else.
"To be honest, I don't remember very well what it was! I feel...... Probably it was just some kind of hallucination caused by this statue, and maybe something you saw, or what I saw, maybe didn't really happen! β
I said it as if it were true, but after all, Expert Zhao was a highly educated intellectual, and I could see that he was not convinced by my explanation.
However, Expert Zhao did not dwell on the topic of "five-body throwing", for him, it was not a very glorious thing.
So he quickly shifted the subject and threw out a more pointed question.
"Why can Advisor Gao discover the lid behind this statue with just the naked eye? And why is it so easy to open the lid without the help of any instruments? Also, why is it that as soon as the lid is opened, the statue loses its aura, while all the sleeping people wake up? β
I can't prevaricate with hallucinations or anything like that, but I've already thought about it.
"I told you that I had come into contact with a very strange relief before, and that relief was now kept in the hands of a very mysterious people hidden deep in the mountains. It was this group that told me that there was a lid on the back of the statue, and once the lid was opened to allow the inside of the statue to come into contact with the air, the mysterious function of the statue would fade and the sleeping person would gradually awaken. β
