Chapter 50: Selfishness

Fang Yisheng had never believed that people had souls, but now, he had such feelings. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info have to say that this feeling is really weird to the extreme.

He was born with the ability to perceive the number of living people, and the number that existed in some mysterious way was never less than one, because he was the original "one".

He was afraid that at some point, that number would become zero.

In the past, every time they obtained a new page, Shi Yuan and others would analyze the words on it. Fang Yisheng knew that those pages would eventually lead them to an answer. However, he didn't know what the question was that the answer corresponded to.

He could only guess.

He guessed several questions, such as what kind of process was the change in this village? Is it possible to control the so-called transition between humans and ghosts? Eventually, will they be able to return to their original lives?

When Qi Xiu Mandarin had just had an abnormal situation, Fang Yisheng was just worried, worried that he would be killed by Qi Xiu Yuan, who had been transformed into a ghost, at some point. But then, he developed his own anomaly, and that's when he really started to fear.

Faced with the mission he carried out with Qi Xiuyuan this time, Fang Yisheng had a selfish intention, he hoped that Qi Xiuyuan would die here. Only then does he not need to worry about it all day. But at the same time, he also felt a strong sense of unease.

He was afraid that when others found out that he was abnormal, they would also want him to die just like he did with Qi Xiuyuan now. Of course, if the others just wanted him dead, there was nothing to worry about. But what if they do something to facilitate the process?

Fang Yisheng believed in Shi Yuan, but he couldn't believe anyone else. Because of this, he desperately tried to hide his anomaly.

He definitely didn't want anyone to see that.

Who in the world can really control themselves?

Every time he thought about this, Fang Yisheng would feel a trace of despair.

Fang Yisheng looked down at Luo Yasen again, the terrifying headless corpse made him feel chills all over. He unconsciously took two steps to the side, as if this way he could avoid danger.

At the top of the hill was dead silence. Fang Yisheng carefully controlled his breathing so as not to make a sound.

The night had faded, but the dawn had not yet dawned. Several vague black shadows gathered around Royasen's house in an irregular manner, some clinging to the surface of the window like geckos, some standing in the doorway, and some moving slowly and erratically.

They are like burning matches, their heads like those matches that have turned into black charcoal, their curved necks that don't seem to be able to bear the weight of their heads, and their bodies are blurred at the edges, as if they will dissipate into the air at any moment.

Gradually, several dark figures seemed to lose interest in the building and drifted away into the distance.

At four o'clock, there was no light in the village of Raven Ridge, and every house looked like the head of a giant, and the windows and doors were the features of those giants. The looming morning light did not drive away the shadows, but instead added a touch of horror to the atmosphere.

The shadows slowly glided across the gravel pavement and drifted towards the closed gates, as if they were predators picking out their prey.

Suddenly, the lights came on in one of the low old houses. Several dark shadows stopped abruptly, and their heads turned in that direction.

Does the owner of this old house have an extremely keen sense of hearing?

The shadow didn't flinch from the light, but moved over.

A slender figure was reflected in the window of the old house. She got up, put on a garment, and walked to the window.

Against the backdrop of half-light and half-darkness, a face emerges from the glass.

As if not seeing the person or thing he wanted to see, the face receded and became part of a black silhouette again.

The slender figure walked towards the door and pushed it open, entering another room.

From the outside, she was no longer visible.

The shadows gathered together, as if discussing something. Their voices wafted like vapour in the air of the village in the early hours of the morning.

Then, several dark shadows moved towards the door.

A deafening crash sounded.

The slender figure opened the door to the room and looked out. When she saw a few dark shadows outside the fence, she visibly hesitated.

"Little girl, can you do me a favor?" A dark shadow spoke.

The girl didn't answer.

"We really need your help. Rest assured, we are not bad people. Another dark shadow said.

The girl was still hesitating.

"We've been looking for most of the night, and we haven't found a place to rest, so we can't stand it. Since you turned on the light at this time, it means that we are destined. Can you let us go in and take a break? We can pay. The first dark shadow said.

The girl took a few steps outward, to a position where she could see their faces clearly, and looked closely.

She could see that the men were really very tired, their eyes were bloodshot, and their faces were very pale.

She bit her lip and finally made up her mind and said, "Okay then, I'll open the door for you." ”

She came to the gate, unlocked it, and pulled the latch open.

"Thank you so much. Can we go in? The Shadow said.

"Well, let's all go inside. However, I only have one bedroom and one bed at home. The girl said.

"It's okay, we'll just do it." The shadow said as he approached the room.

The girl let them in, made a brief arrangement, and went back to sleep.

A dark shadow stopped her and said, "Thank you so much." Don't know what to call it? ”

The girl looked up at the man's eyes, and felt that there was no sparkle in them, as if they were a soulless shell.

She hesitated for a moment and said, "My name is Tu Xue'er, you can call me Xue'er." ”

"Cher, I really want to thank you. My surname is Chen, and I am a teacher from the city who came here to run a summer camp, and all three of them are our teachers together. encountered a little accident, there is no way, I can only come to disturb. I'm sorry. ”

"It doesn't matter. Let's rest first, it's almost dawn. Tu Xue'er waved her hand, said a kind word, and lay back on her bed.

Tu Xue'er's house is very small, with only two rooms. The bedroom she slept in by herself also had only one bed, and one of the four strangers was huddled with her. As for the other three, they went to the kitchen and living room to rest.

Tu Xue'er turned off the lights, and everything was quiet, as if she turned off not the lights, but the speakers, and all the sounds disappeared with the turn off of the speakers.

There was an extra person next to Tu Xue'er, and she felt very uncomfortable. However, out of politeness, she chose to be patient.

The girl next to her didn't introduce herself, and Tu Xue'er didn't know what her name was. All she knew was that the girl slept restlessly, always moving around, turning left and right, and once again putting her arms around her neck.
