Chapter 6: The Devil
The dark hair spread like disgusting tentacles up the stairway as if it were about to devour everything.
Mo Bai was very calm, he stepped back, and took out the thermometer he had obtained in the office on the third floor from his pocket as he took out the thermometer, and Mo Bai was ready.
Don't look at the ghost can directly touch the human body without any medium, but ordinary weapons are useless against it, whether it is a brick or a firearm, hitting the ghost only makes it more terrifying.
To deal with ghosts, you have to involve things like metaphysics, such as this thermometer!
In the eyes of ordinary people and medicine, the thermostat is just a simple prop for measuring the body temperature of life, but the thermostat is mixed with a substance that is extremely lethal to ghosts.
Mercury!
Regarding metaphysical things, there is no need for quantity, like the kind of movie that spills a big pot of chicken blood to exorcise ghosts, it is all fake, if the ghost is really afraid, a drop is enough for it, why use a basin?
Therefore, the mercury content in the thermometer can be said to be insignificant, but once sprinkled on the ghost, it can cause extremely significant killing effects.
And mercury can exist for a long time, there is no need to worry about no effect, the tomb of Qin Shi Huang is the best proof, and this thermometer is still sealed.
Mo Bai has retreated to the side of the stairs, and then he will go up to the third floor, usually encountering a ghost head-on, Mo Bai will generally retreat rationally, because without any preparation, it is not enough to kill a ghost, however, the ghost ghost's soul power (equivalent to vitality) is also the most tenacious among the ghosts, and it is also the most difficult to kill, but, at this time, mercury is in hand, Mo Bai wants to challenge it!
Black hair was already wrapped around his heels, trying to pull him down, and Mo Bai clung to the handrail of the staircase.
In fact, he could have shot right now, unscrewed the thermostat, and sprinkled the mercury in it into his hair, which could kill the ghosts through his hair, but he was not in a hurry, because he was very bold, and he wanted to use the mercury in his hand to exert the maximum effect!
The long-haired ghost didn't seem to be able to pull Mo Bai, so he began to climb up, and the eerie head was all over the second floor, and Mo Bai could clearly see a miserable white head moving on the ground, and the dense hair tips were like grass blown by the wind, swaying from side to side, looking extremely terrifying.
The strength of the hair increased, and it pulled Mo Bai down, and a large amount of hair wrapped around his neck, trying to strangle him to death.
Mo Bai had already held his breath before this, and it seemed that every move of the ghost was expected by him.
I saw that the head of the ghost shrank violently with the hair, and flew towards him, extremely fast, and in the process of contraction, the pitch-black mouth opened, and the corners of the mouth cracked, and the mouth became the size of a basketball, enough to swallow a person!
Mo Bai stared at the approaching head, bit off the thermometer in his hand without hurry, and then shot when the head was approaching.
However, Mo Bai didn't throw it, but directly put his entire arm into the bloody mouth of the ghost, and with a shake of his hand, he poured mercury into its body without leaking.
As long as the mercury touches the ghost, it will take effect immediately, without the slightest delay.
I heard the screams of the ghosts, the voice was high-pitched, and the face was distorted, which made the scalp tingle, and the tentacle-like hair was curled up, all rushing into the mouth of the skull, trying to take out the mercury, which looked extremely painful.
Mo Bai stared coldly at the struggling ghost, his eyes were extremely indifferent, and he seemed to be even more terrifying than the ghost!
In the process of struggling, Mo Bai seemed to see a few slight scars on its skull, as if it was formed by bumping into a hard position, maybe this could be related to something?
Mo Bai didn't let go of any clues, and secretly wrote it down.
After a long time, the mercury spread all over the ghost's body, turning it into ashes, and the soul spirit left behind was also packed into a container.
Mo Bai began to think, where did the ghost come from? He walked to the windowsill on the second floor and looked towards the parking shed below the first floor, and sure enough, the door to the warehouse had been opened, and the ghost had come out of it.
"So...... The identity of this thing is ......"
He was trying to connect the ghost with the ghost, but there seemed to be something in between, there was no way to connect, and finally, he looked at the dead ghost, the hair was still wriggling, but it was not far from death.
The vitality of the ghosts is tenacious, but it is also the most difficult to repair after being damaged, and the nature of their existence is different from that of other ghosts, other ghosts need a medium to touch humans, and the ghosts do not need to, so that their injuries are also the most difficult to recover, let alone when mercury flows into the body.
After a few twists and turns, the two guys were solved, but Mo Bai didn't walk into the toilet with a big grin, he was worried about what else existed in it, after all, there were two kinds of ghosts in a small clinic at the same time, which was quite unusual.
Last time in the city hospital, there was only one powerful ghost in such a big place, and the ghosts like to occupy a piece of territory alone, and they wish they were separated from other ghosts, after all, they are all to absorb human souls to enhance their strength, and naturally they don't like to share resources.
Mo Bai felt that this clinic was too strange, and he guessed that there must be more than ghosts, resentful spirits, and demon sounds here, and there must be other things.
He knew it was dangerous, perhaps the most dangerous place he had ever experienced, but instead of retreating, he chose to move on, because the mystery was about to be revealed.
There is nothing more terrifying in the world than to be bold, and there is nothing more terrifying in the world than to be extremely calm no matter what he encounters, however, Mo Bai happens to have the ultimate of both!
Whether facing a resentful spirit or a ghost, Mo Bai will let the other party touch him first, and one of the most important things is to let the ghost make a wrong judgment.
For ordinary people, encountering such ghosts and strange things is nothing more than being scared and losing their minds, or being afraid to move, or fainting, or even being scared to death.
This kind of low-level ghost's thinking is very simple, when it finds that its prey is not moving, it will judge that he has lost the ability to resist, and will think that the prey is afraid of itself, at this time, it is also the easiest time for Mo Bai to deal with them, and there is a high chance of killing them.
For example, in the office on the third floor, Mo Bai entered the spirit realm of the resentful spirit, he did not flee, nor did he move, the resentful spirit would be tempted by touching his body, so Mo Bai knew that it was already in that state of judgment at this time, so he successfully locked it in the mask.
Another example is when Fang was entangled by a powerful ghost and was about to be devoured, the powerful ghost also judged that Mo Bai could not resist, however, at this time, Mo Bai could often be taken by surprise.
This method is not recommended in the Xuan Realm (circles with occult powers), because it is too risky, and people are more expected to kill them without being touched by ghosts, but it is often very troublesome, don't think that ghosts are low IQ, they can also think, they will ponder humans, often if they fail to hit a single blow, it is difficult to kill them again, because ghosts are already on guard.
Although Mo Bai chose a very dangerous method, he had a good chance of success, because his thinking was destined to be broader than what the others had seen.
He entered the toilet, there were three bathrooms, and the two doors were open, and Mo Bai could see through the mirror on the opposite side to see if there was anyone inside.
The innermost toilet is for the disabled, and the entrance is closed.
The toilet was silent, except for the breath of Mo Bai, there was nothing else, there was a lot of stagnant water on the ground, dark and damp, he took out a flashlight to shine on the toilet with extremely heavy yin qi, and saw that there was a black and yellow liquid on the ground, exuding a pungent smell, Rao is Mo Bai's ability to withstand is different from ordinary people, he couldn't help frowning, if he was an ordinary person, I am afraid he would have to vomit.
He walked inside.
The resentful spirit has died on the third floor, there is no longer the sound of water droplets in this bathroom, and when he came to the sink, Mo Bai tried to twist the water valve, but the faucet had long been rusted into steel, and it was blocked by rusty iron, and he couldn't twist it, and it was not difficult to twist it open, he just didn't want to be serious with a faucet, in fact, he just wanted to wash his face.
Walking to the door of the third bathroom, he crawled on the floor, and through the gap under the door, he saw a pair of dead man's feet, which seemed to have festered into mold from the long-term infestation.
Mo Bai knew that there was someone inside, so it proved that his guess was right, he didn't hesitate, opened the door directly, bit the flashlight in his mouth, and walked in.
Through the light, I saw that it was the corpse of a woman, dressed in the clothes of a patient, with a large hole in her abdomen, and the person's face still maintained the expression of death, looking very painful, and there were several cockroaches swimming in the open mouth.
He opened the corpse's clothes and wanted to see the complete wound, only to see that the deceased's nipples were dark gray, the black blood vessels of the skin were clearly visible, the location of the wound in the abdomen happened to be the location of the placenta, and the edge of the wound seemed to be wounded by some sharp weapon.
Mo Bai retrieves the previously stored placental flesh in an attempt to revive the corpse, and he needs to talk to her to get some information.
