Body Chapter 004: Firebird

A woman's face appeared in the window of Villa 106, it was the woman in the photo, Lu Lu, she was looking at this from afar, with a mysterious smile on the corner of her mouth, Oh, disappeared, and when she reappeared, she was dialing with a telephone

In the room, the phone rang suddenly, and I instinctively answered it

"Is that Mr. Chen?" A woman's voice

My lips are dry: "Are you ......?" ”

"I'm your neighbor, you should be no stranger"

In the viewfinder, the woman of Villa 106 waved at me

I was a little embarrassed: "Do you know who I am?" ”

"How could I not know Mr. Chen, who is known as a compound eye? Besides, something unimaginable and counterintuitive is about to happen here, and you will definitely come uninvited."

She laughed, and the laughter was ethereal, far and near

"Am I right? Mr. Chen"

……

Compound eyes are the nickname that Heroic Spirit gave me when he joked with me, which means that I can see things that others want to see but can't, just like the compound eyes of insects, they have a multi-directional perspective, and they are keen and good at catching

But where did this woman learn about the private secrets between us?

I had an ominous feeling that I had been captured

……

On the phone, the woman was waiting for my questioning

I wondered, "Can you elaborate on what happens?" ”

"War, a war that does not belong to humanity, if you have enough patience and guts, you will see"

I decided to abandon this talk of ridiculous prophecy and get straight to the point: "Fang, does it really exist?" ”

"It doesn't matter whether there exists or not, the world thinks that what is seen is what exists, and in this world, there are actually a lot of things that you can't see but really exist."

I felt a cold sweat crawling down my spine, "You mean the ghost?" ”

"You can call them that, but I prefer the word supernatural, supernatural, different from the human soul, you must have this feeling, in the dead of night, there are scenes and objects that do not belong to the world in your sleep, and the inexplicable shaking and trembling of a certain part of the body come from the supernatural existence around you"

"You mean, I live in a world of ghosts?"

"To be precise, it is a space where people and spirits coexist"

I took a deep breath and said, "Why are they at war?" ”

She didn't answer, just sighed "My hunch is terrible......"

"What did you have a hunch?"

"The fang has lost its giant eye, the evil spirit has rushed out of the dream, civilization has been eroded and rotted, poison and blood have filled all the places where life exists, fish and birds are not spared, the gods will despair, take back the sun, moon and stars, rivers, lakes and seas flow with tears and sewage, flowers grow teeth, grass turns into sharp blades......"

"Who stole the Giant Eye?"

I asked, "Is that you?" ”

There was a chuckle from there

"Although I am a psychic, I do not yet have the power to awaken the dreams of the fang, the thief is my kind, but I believe that he has the will of God"

"If he is also a psychic, why did he betray your master?"

"Giant Eye is a magical power that can find and summon back the wandering spirits of the dead, and I think, he wants to bring someone back to life."

I am awe-inspired, and angry, "Would it be better for millions of people to be cursed by God for the regeneration of one man?" ”

There was a noise in the earpiece

The voice suddenly weakened, as if it was disturbed by a signal, and the last words I could hear clearly were "They're coming......

"Who are they? Who's coming? I yelled into the microphone, and all I could hear was a "beep" busy sound

……

"They're coming?"

"Who are they?"

I looked at Villa 106 in all kinds of confusion, the light in the window had gone out at some point, and the mottled aspen swayed in the night breeze, like a ghost with countless eyes showing its teeth and claws

There was a slight noise behind me, and the general's hair suddenly stood on end, and I suddenly turned around

The magazine on the table seemed to be pushed away by an invisible finger, and it fell with a "snap", and the corners of the woman's mouth in the photo oozed terrifying bloodshots, and her eyes stayed on my face in pain, losing her vitality and luster little by little

My legs were limp and I couldn't move

Just as I was almost fainting, a strange bird flew into the window, the size of a finger's belly, and the whole body was burning with fire, and the whole room was as hot as an oven

It folded its wings over the photograph, opened its sharp mouth, and a wisp of white smoke slowly gathered around the photograph, and it was about to be put into its mouth when it saw it

I don't know where I got the courage to pick up the camera and throw it

The strange bird flashed lightly, and the white smoke instantly dissipated in the wind

It tilted its head and squinted at me, turning a pair of red eyes in the flames, and my muscles, nose and mouth could not breathe

Suddenly a sharp whistle sounded outside the window, and it flew through the window, and through the black curtain you could faintly see a ball of fire rising into the air until it was gone

I collapsed and collapsed to the ground

……

The next day, I woke up from a coma, and the woman was gone, and the whole photo paper was blank, as if it was like that, and there was no image of it

Just as I was dumbfounded, the Heroic Spirit called, and Lu Lu, the mysterious psychic ultimatum, had been blown away like smoke by the wind under the eyelids of the three female police officers at 11:32 p.m. last night, and vanished

I immediately remembered the white smoke that the strange bird was about to smoke, could it be Lu Lu's soul, maybe she was already dead at that time, only the soul was still floating

I can't help but shudder when I think about it

For a whole day, I was immersed in a chaotic mind, and the words "supernatural", "rebirth", and "dream" kept beating my nerves, and I had to painfully abandon all previous concepts and re-look at life and death

The Heroic Spirit sat beside me and watched me, and eventually, I couldn't hold back, "Would you like to have a drink?" ”

I didn't move, and I lost my soul

……

In the small box of the "Inhuman World" bar, I kept drinking until the alcohol paralyzed my nerves

The Heroic Spirit was silent, snuggling up on the sofa like a cat, concentrating on peeling the apples

The light in the box is cool, the spherical iridescent overhead casts bottles, glasses, decorations and people in a strange color, the huge sound on the dance floor downstairs roars rock music, and the goblets on the glass table dance as lightly as the little people in a music box

"Tell me, okay?" She handed me a peeled apple and asked, "What keeps my hero's soul from possession?" ”

I said incoherently, "They're here, they're around me, they're around you...... There are ...... everywhere."

Her eyes were bright, "What's there?" ”

"I don't know, I really don't know ......"

I grabbed her little arm" Lu Lu called me before she disappeared and said something inexplicable...... And then...... And then the photo is ...... bleeding"

I couldn't continue to talk because I was shaking so much

She held my hand, trying to calm me down

"Maybe you're always thinking about that monkey, mental suggestion"

"No, no," I opened my eyes wide, "please believe me, I really saw Lu Lu's picture smiling and bleeding...... There is also a burning bird, and the room is red......"

Heroic Spirit's face changed

I called out to her, and she jumped up like a pressed spring

I suddenly had an inexplicable feeling that she knew what was going on

Sure enough, after a long silence, she exhaled, "That monkey with a human face is the most vile and degrading evil spirit in the dream realm called Doyu, which is said to lick the spit on the ground and incarnate into shape, which can make people lose their minds and burst into primitive wildness that has been hidden for a long time."
