Chapter 40: The Return and the End
The campus is bustling with people, and the green vegetation is dotted with young students full of life, laughter and sadness. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The morning sun is very soft, filling the whole campus with the scent of birds and flowers, and there is a couple in early love strolling through it, but in such a place full of positive energy, there is a place covered in darkness.
In the studio, the position of the original blackboard, darkness and emptiness coexist, nothing can be seen, and the only existence is the five eye-like points of light, flickering and dimming.
而这些光点中此时正射出一道道光线,光柱线的方向飞往画室的各个方位,那里正有着五个即将死去的人。
Time seems to freeze for a moment, and the scene seems to form a picture, the picture falls through the cracks of time, and falls to the ground when nothing is going forward, and where it falls, there is a book with no content.
The picture ends up on the book, which then blends into it, making up for the lack of it, and the book is lying quietly on a bloodstained hand.
Time began to flow again, and everything continued on its original trajectory, and the sun-drenched world outside the window did not affect it in the slightest.
"Huh."
Two white lights suddenly lit up, and the already bright studio was filled with white light, drowning the blood-colored light in an instant, and if anyone paid attention to this place at this time, they could see the studio full of white light from the window, and there was nothing else in it except bright light.
The beam of light shot into the dark passage in an instant, hitting the location of the five eyes, and then the eyes disappeared, and the five pillars of blood-colored light were also annihilated.
Opening his eyes again, Duan Zheng saw a familiar room, which was the business hotel room he was staying in.
"Alive... Returned? He could scarcely believe how tragic and helpless it was for them to resist the attacks of the terrifying beings, and for all to wait for death in despair.
Now, he was still alive, really alive, and he immediately thought of Yang Xiao and the others, did they also return smoothly? Especially Yang Xiao, in that case, can he persevere?
Thinking of it, he confirmed, and immediately sent a message through the Infinite Terror Network and sent it to the ninth crew group, so as to avoid asking one by one.
Soon, he received a reply, Yang Xiao and Zhao Rui were fine, but due to too many events, even if they were fully restored to all their states, they still felt tired psychologically and needed to rest.
After being confirmed, Duan Zheng was also relieved, it's good to be alive, it's good to be alive, as long as you live, there is hope.
He also needs to rest, and the psychological fatigue cannot be cured by recovering his mental strength, and he must be buffered by sleep to slowly subside.
It was late at night, and Duan Zheng's expression in his sleep kept changing, crying and laughing, obviously, he was dreaming.
The time of the dream, very long, very long.
He didn't know who his name was, and he didn't know how he could be here, it was a place full of endless darkness, and in his senses, he had been wandering here since birth, neither alive nor dead, day or night, cold or warm, until one day, he came across something, but because his vision was blocked, he couldn't tell what he had encountered.
The thing pulled him along and kept going, and he couldn't break free, so he just let it go.
In the end, he was confined to a small space, so small that it tightly wrapped around his body, and he remained that way ever since.
After a long time, the small space loosened a little, he felt that he could finally get out of here, and then he began to struggle, but the process was very difficult, he was tired and exhausted, and he only expanded the space around his body a little, at this time, an invisible energy surged from an unknown place, and was sucked into his body.
Once again, he began to struggle, and so on, and so on, until one day, he broke out of his shell, but he was still in the dark, but with the energy he absorbed continuously, he began to move forward without stopping.
Finally, a glimmer of light appeared, and the moment he was illuminated by the light, he felt that he had received a qualitative change, and he worked harder to move forward towards the unknown place.
Under a mountain, next to a tree, a young shoot opens the soil on its head, completes its first metabolism, the sun shines, and under the influence of photosynthesis, it begins to grow at a faster rate.
A few months later, a sturdy sapling appeared in its original position, and after experiencing wind and rain, severe cold and heat, it finally grew, and was no longer afraid of any violent storm, wind and frost and rain.
However, just when it thought it could go on without worry, several people found it, and these people looked at the tree, and then at the sapling, and finally decided to cut down the sapling, and did not touch the tree that had grown for many years.
Once again, it was passively taken away, still unable to resist, and the men took it home, sharpened it piece by piece with a knife, and finally made an awl, and then threw it aside, and used it when needed.
One day, a Taoist priest came to this village, saying that there were filthy things in this village, which would cause all kinds of disasters and harm the villagers, and it was necessary to find an item from the village to carry out the Taoist altar, and it was chosen again.
After a ring of obscure Taoist altars, the Taoist priest told the villagers that the filth had been nailed with an awl and that the object could not remain in the village, otherwise it would leave trouble, and then he would take it away.
The Taoist priest came to the bottom of a big mountain, under a big tree, he stood quietly for a long time, and finally took out an awl.
"This mountain is Zhongnan Mountain, this tree is called Yin Kwai Tree, and you were born in between, so you are called Kwan Kwai Tree!" As the Taoist priest spoke, he inserted Zhong Kui again in the place where it originally grown, and then said: "Your name is Zhong Kui, you have the ability to exorcise demons and demons, I can't bear to bury your talent here, so I will help you reincarnate, and remember to benefit the world in the future." ”
Then, a beam of fire fell, and the final sunflower was reduced to ashes in the firelight.
Twenty years later, a person with a leopard's head and ringed eyes, an iron face and sideburns, and a strange appearance appeared in Zhongnan Mountain, this person was Zhong Kui, no, he is now named Zhong Kui.
Although Zhong Kui's appearance is unsightly, he is a talented and wealthy character, plain and upright, upright, upright, honest, kind-hearted, talented, and outstanding in martial arts.
In the end, he entered Beijing to take the exam, and the title of the gold list was inscribed, but he was disliked by Emperor Xuanzong because of his ugly appearance, saying: "I am a scholar, all in my body and words, how can such an ugly person be the champion of the golden branch?" ”
In the end, Zhong Kui was angry and killed in front of the palace due to the emperor's prejudice......
Duan Zheng opened his eyes, his eyes were full of strange looks, how long had he not dreamed? A few months? Or a few years? He couldn't even say it himself, but he had a dream just now, and he was ...... in the dream
"Huh?"
He frowned, the picture in the dream was already blurred, no matter how much he recalled, he couldn't recall what he had experienced, he only knew that the dream was very long, it was decades long, and it seemed as if he had experienced reincarnation.
This kind of legendary thing only appears in dreams, and what else can shorten a few decades into a night other than dreaming?
Duan Zheng shook his head, getting rid of the cluttered information in his mind, it was just a dream, he wouldn't rack his brains for such a thing.
"Was that...?" In a certain luxury car, a beautiful girl in a fiery red dress is beautiful and slightly picky, she has an indescribable temperament, like a beautiful red face that captivates the country and the city, and like a queen on top, this girl is Zhen Yu.
"What's wrong? Light rain? In the driver's seat, a handsome guy full of sunshine turned his head and looked at Zhen Yu who was sitting in the back row.
"What are you calling me?" Zhen Yu's face turned cold, and his eyes met him.
"Okay, okay, Miss Zhen, I'm sorry, I was wrong." The handsome man shook his head, and his flowing hair crossed an arc, then fixed in the air, and then slowly deformed until he changed to another hairstyle, from which it can be seen that this person must have extraordinary abilities.
"Hmm." Zhen Yu hummed lightly, and then began to say, "I sensed his breath. ”
"He? Which he? "In the co-pilot, he is also a handsome guy, the difference is that this man is not as sunny as the driver's position, his eyes are even more gloomy, and the whole person gives people an uncomfortable feeling.
The man in the driver's seat looked at him and said, "Which else could it be?" It must be the one who shares her bloodline, otherwise ......"
He stopped suddenly, turned his head to look at Zhen Yu suddenly, and spoke again: "You mean... Did you sense it? His breath? The man was shocked, and the news scared him.
"That's right, it's him, Juniaoi, or... Zhong Kui. Only from the bloodline of the Exorcist Saint Monarch Zhong Kui can use that soul hook lock, and it must be a man, so I gave it to the same sect after I don't know how many generations have been separated. And now, I feel the breath of the ancestor Zhong Kui. Zhen Yu's voice is tactful, but it has a kind of majesty, her surname is Zhen, which is her father's surname, and her mother's surname is Zhong.
"So that means we're about to have a strong ally?" The sunny man whose driver was unknown continued.
"Wang Peng, you're thinking too much, among the thirteen crews, are there any real allies? Who isn't thinking about how to kill the rest of the crew in order to earn points and grab horror movie tickets and exorcism props. The gloomy man in the co-pilot seat began to hit him, and in the world of horror films that the crew co-starred in, there is a basic rule for mutual killings in line with the plot, that is, the remaining number of horror movie tickets for the killed person will be transferred to the killer's account, horror movie tickets, which is needed by all, and its role is not as simple as the ninth crew knows.
"Chen Dong, you are a facial paralyzed ghost, are you stupid or am I stupid? If there is no benefit, will our eldest sister Miss Zhen do it? According to you, that's the act of an enemy. Wang Peng retorted.
"Alright, shut up." Zhen Yu glanced at the two of them coldly, she was also very helpless about these two people, they were both members of the first crew, these two people had conflicting personalities, and there was always a war of words when they were together.
The eldest sister spoke, and the two naturally listened obediently, compared to other crews, the cohesion of the first crew is not bad, but this powerful eldest sister is not a soft-handed master, once she is unhappy, she will definitely be repaired.
"It's just that he has initially sensed a trace of qi, it's hard to say yet, with his current strength, it's not enough to fuse the soul hook lock left by the ancestors, this is not something that the bloodline can decide, with the current conditions, he is still far from growing up. We only need to pay attention to the next horror movies at present, Dongzi, your "Yin Corpse" is about to be released, how are you preparing now? Zhen Yu doesn't care about the reactions of the two, she has always been strong.
"Well, it's almost, the horror film "Yin Corpse" is co-starred with people from the fifth and eleventh crews, one person in each crew, judging from the difficulty of this horror film, I can't be left. It is the people of the other two crews that need to be noted. I'll kill them all if I have the chance, and I'll probably get a lot of tickets. Chen Dong said coldly, this person has such a personality, he looks like this in the face of everyone, of course, as a member of the crew, he must adapt to his role in a horror movie, otherwise he will die, and those who can come to this point will definitely not be bad in acting, and it is no problem to imitate a person with a different personality.
From their words, some information was also revealed, not everyone in the same crew had to participate in a horror movie at the same time, and the difficulty of a horror film was no longer judged by a specific number of people, but if there were too many people, the difficulty would definitely not be low.
There is also Zhong Kui, a god in Chinese mythology, in Taoism, called Yisheng Thunder to exorcise demons and ward off evil spirits, and the town house blessing emperor, referred to as "town house true monarch", "exorcism true monarch", "exorcism emperor", etc., in other sects, there are also "ghost hunting heavenly master", "yin and yang judge", "exorcism saint" and other titles.
And Duan Zheng and Zhen Yu are actually the descendants of the bloodline of the so-called exorcist saint Zhong Kui, now it seems that Duan Zheng's dream is not for no reason, it is the embodiment of awakening the residual memories in the bloodline, he has Zhong Kui's bloodline, so he experienced Zhong Kui's life in his dream.
But that's all, the bloodline is the bloodline, everyone will have a bloodline descendant, he wants to become an existence like Zhong Kui, it is impossible to achieve, Zhong Kui became a god after his death, specializing in exorcism and chasing ghosts, this is just folklore, even if it really exists, it is only in the past, and no one can obtain the ability of the sages through the bloodline, this is the law.
The only role of the bloodline is to reproduce, continue, and prove the origin of this person, there is no other special, and it is not as magical as it is said in the novel.
