Chapter Twenty-Eight: Evil Things
In fact, there are naturally things such as formations recorded in the Guigu Dao Technique, but the usual Wang Xu can't translate this part due to the limitations of spiritual sense, but another Wang Xu has already mastered it.
"I have schizophrenia." Wang Xu threw out this reason very simply.
Apparently he didn't want to explain too much, so he fooled Elbert in a more understandable way, in his opinion, he would disappear in the near future, and the job of explaining would be left to another self.
However, Elbert still seems to be skeptical: "How can you prove that you are not possessed or impersonated?" ”
Wang Xu thought for a moment: "I can easily kill everyone within a hundred miles, including you, but I don't, so ...... A person with absolute dominance does not need to lie about any life that can be easily plundered. ”
Elbert opened his mouth to speak, but Wang Xu immediately continued: "The reason why I answer this way is because it is much easier to prove my strength than to prove my identity, so you don't have to ask now, 'Then how can you prove that you can kill everyone?'" I'll just show you some strength for this question. He waved his hand.
Elbert instantly felt a strong spiritual power fluctuation, he was using spiritual vision at this time, so he clearly saw a huge semi-circular halo enveloping the entire Fengyun Inn, the density of this spiritual energy he had never seen before, although this kind of energy did not have any ill will towards him, but Elbert stood near this halo and felt that it was difficult to move, he could imagine that if a lonely soul and wild ghost touched this energy, it would be the result of being wiped out.
Wang Xu could always understand Elbert's inner thoughts, and he continued: "Follow me, and on the way I will tell you what I have to deal with this time." ”
Elbert chose to shut up and follow, he suddenly understood that this little brother Wang was much more powerful than he imagined, the ghost hunter was really amazing, he was really too far behind, he had to learn a little hard......
Wang Xu took Elbert and walked towards the river described by the shopkeeper: "The reason why you didn't search for the soul last night was not because of your spiritual sense, but because you couldn't discern the soul of that thing. ”
"You're saying it was just a rag doll that attacked me last night?"
"It's not just you, it's everyone, this rag doll is the culprit of all events, eight years ago, and recently, there has never been another ghost, it's just a ghost."
Elbert was obviously incredulous about the situation, so Wang Xu continued, "I'll start from the beginning...... Everything in this world has a spirit, including a small grass on the ground, a leaf in the wind, everything has spirituality and spiritual power, and human beings are called the spirits of all things because we have something that we don't have, that is, a powerful soul.
Perhaps the God who created this world has a soft spot for human beings, and the human soul is far stronger than all other things, although there are some exceptions, but generally speaking, to take an inappropriate example, the strength of a person's soul can be as strong as a hundred dogs.
Therefore, there are other things that make people jealous, and they make themselves stronger and closer to people by devouring the human soul.
However, no matter how hard it tries, this is impossible after all, and its actions will only make itself further and further away from human beings, and finally become a dirty and greedy evil creature, addicted to the human soul......"
Wang Xu paused at this point: "Then we are going to talk about the evil thing, I just said, everything has a spirit, so some things, especially things close to the human form, may have stronger spiritual power, in Chinese terms, that is, cultivation into refinement, such as ginseng that has grown into a human type after thousands of years, or a fox that can become a beautiful woman, etc., grace...... The Binocchio you're imagining right now should be fictional......
In short, the ragdoll gradually gained self-consciousness and the ability to be a spirit, so it began to kill people and thus gain souls, so that it would become stronger and stronger. I don't think the little boy eight years ago was the first owner, or victim, anymore. And his parents must have been very frightened to see their child killed, so they took advantage of the daylight to throw the doll into the river, and kept silent about the whole thing afterwards, and did not dare to say that the child was dead.
But the shopkeeper was used, he picked up that day was not a real doll at all, just a piece of garbage by the river, the real doll has always been at the bottom of the river, it took advantage of the shopkeeper's kindness, created all kinds of illusions, the little boy by the river, the night after seven days, nightmares, etc., it made his behavior seem very logical, a scene of parents killing their children and being wronged by the soul of the drama was directed and staged by it.
Elbert interjected and asked, "If its body can harm people all the time in the river, then why make a fake doll for the shopkeeper to take back?" And why create the illusion of a wronged soul asking for his life? ”
Wang Xu nodded: "That's a good question, it seems that you do have the talent to be a ghost hunter......" Elbert smirked when he heard this, obviously very useful.
Wang Xu continued: "Because this is what it has to do, it needs believers, and the shopkeeper plays this role.
I have told you about the origin of evil creatures before, and you should be able to search for their shadows from many legends, such as cats that were worshipped in Egypt in the past, snakes, frogs, etc., and many remote and strange civilizations that worshipped all kinds of evil gods that you have never heard of, some in the form of animals, and some even some actual things, such as a tree that eats people, or a bottomless cave.
They all have one thing in common, and that is that they need a power of 'believing', which can be done by deception, intimidation, by any means, right...... You're right, it's the same as Freddie in "Ghost Street", the more people who are afraid of him, the stronger he becomes.
This doll uses inducement to make the shopkeeper think that he has uncovered the truth of a wronged soul, so that a legend about it will be spread, and more people will hear about the existence of a rag doll in this story, even if they all think that this thing is just an unimportant clue in the story, but they will still remember it and believe that such a thing exists.
However, its plan did not go ahead, and it could have looked for its next target and started a new massacre, but all was stopped by the string of Buddhist beads. That's why it says 'nosy stuff,' which refers to the shopkeeper.
Perhaps it was destined by God that the shopkeeper was not only a superstitious person, but also a kind person who liked to meddle in things. Although he was taken advantage of because of this character, it was also because of this character that he did something to make amends. ”
As they spoke, they had already come to the river, and a strange child's voice continued Wang Xu's words: "Wonderful...... It's wonderful, so do you know why I'm coming out again now? ”
