Chapter 68: Haunted
At noon, on the roof of a 20-story building, Ye Ye lay on the scorched cement floor in large characters without any grace, lazily bathing in the sunlight at the strongest time of the day, comfortably feeling the nearly exhausted ripple power in his body echoing with the omnipresent sun fluctuations that spread throughout the world at this moment, gradually recovering little by little, like drops of water gathering into a stream, and the murmuring water grew into a rushing river.
Some time ago, he fought and fled day and night, treating and recovering from his injuries again and again, so that the ripple power in Ye Ye's body was almost exhausted, almost to the point of running out of oil and lamps, otherwise he wouldn't need to retreat from the Taige World so decisively in the face of the round-up of that group of onmyoji.
Feeling the warmth of the surrounding sunlight as if it was about to penetrate into his body, Ye Ye couldn't help but let out a comfortable **, it felt like soaking in a hot spring, and even the wounds on his body that had not yet healed were about to accelerate their growth, but unfortunately the sun in Tokyo was not violent, otherwise it would have recovered faster.
"It's still comfortable in this world."
Ye Ye sighed, I don't know what's going on, maybe it's the difference in background, he always feels a little out of place when he is in the Taige world, and subconsciously thinks that everything he faces is just a game, so his behavior is a little unscrupulous, and he even made that kind of death at the last moment, and was forced to flee back in embarrassment. However, this world is different, whether it is the familiar modern background, or the transformation and growth of more than ten years here, Ye Ye has almost completely integrated into it, and it is not an exaggeration to regard this strongest world in history as half of his hometown. Therefore, after returning from the Taige World, Ye Ye's whole person suddenly relaxed.
"It's a pity, it's too impatient, there is still a lot of value in the Taige world that can be dug deeply."
After his body and mind were completely calm, Ye Ye reflected on his every move in the previous world, and couldn't help but have some regrets, although he made a lot of money this time, he also missed a lot of valuable things. The unfathomable Warring States like a vortex contains much more than a little power on the surface, as evidenced by the onmyoji who appeared later, and if you go back to your roots, you may even climb to the shadow of the gods.
"However, if you miss it, you miss it, in the vast void sea, a mere Taige world is just a drop in the ocean, not to mention that with my current strength, if I go a little deeper, I may not be able to eat it."
Although he was a little sorry, Ye Ye would not be very concerned, after all, it was impossible for him to loot every world, unless he advanced to the level of a high-level or a great pioneer to pack up the entire dimensional world, he would only be a passerby after all. With this regret, it is better to focus on his injuries and let the state return to the best as soon as possible is the right thing, after all, in this world, his strength is far from the strongest level.
It's just, it's almost there!
The experience of the Taige world has allowed Ye Ye to accumulate enough resources, he has already stepped into the realm of the master with half a foot, and there is only a thin film from the complete breakthrough, which will be broken when he stabs, and he may cross that line when he will cross it. All it takes is a good precipitation, maybe a few weeks, maybe a few months, and the first word of the word "quasi-master" will definitely be removed - provided that his injuries heal and his spirit is adjusted to the best condition.
"Hey, sometimes I really envy the physique of vampires, if it were Dio, this kind of injury would probably be completely recovered as long as the group of scum downstairs was eaten."
Ye Ye sighed a little, as two completely opposite individuals, the vampire's ability to absorb the life source energy of others made Ye Ye envious, and he must get up, the ripple messenger can only put it but not suck it, and it is a little too inefficient to rely on himself to silently strengthen the life source energy. But Ye Ye just talked about it, if he really changed his face to be a vampire like Dior, he wouldn't do it, he was too low.
Just as Ye Ye was enjoying the sun bath, there was a faint sound of noisy and noisy shouting downstairs, which couldn't help but make him frown.
"This group of guys is still so energetic, it seems that they will need to add more material in the future."
After returning from the Taige World, Ye Ye finished the "dark" task and handed over the little dragon Jingguang, who was confirmed to have lost its node role, although he disappeared inexplicably for a few days halfway, but with his status, no one dared to ask, after all, the task was completed after all, and there was no need to worry too much about the details.
Although the Tokyo branch also has a good level of medical strength, Ye Ye is too lazy to talk to them, after all, it is known that it is not a big trouble to get an injury, anyway, he himself is not without healing means, so Ye Ye has been temporarily living here for half a month to recover his ripple power.
Ye Ye on the roof is a good friend, but recently this building seems to have bad feng shui, and the residents often encounter a lot of strange and supernatural things.
This building belongs to a certain community in Tokyo, and the employees in it are mainly engaged in some kind of financial work to help people, and lend money to some people when they are short of cash, which is absolutely fast and flexible compared to the bank, and the procedure is simple, but the interest rate is slightly higher, and the means of collecting debts are a little rougher, and they often use the wife and children of the debtor or the body organs to pay off the debt; The other small part is engaged in the management of a certain red light district, standardizing the order of some hard-working housewives, white-collar workers, female students, etc., so that the entire industry can maintain order.
As time passed, the sun fell towards the west, the sky gradually dimmed, and the ripples of sunlight that originally filled the sky and earth disappeared, Ye Ye sighed and got up from the concrete floor that had no heat and became cold.
Turning his head to look at the staircase leading to the rooftop, Ye Ye showed a malicious smile on his face: "Night is falling, and the ghosts should also come out for a stroll and have a lively time." ”
In the corridor on the 13th floor, Ono Nishiyu probed his head to enter the bathroom, looking left and right every few steps, as if he was afraid that something would come out of the darkness, and he looked like he was cowering.
Before the sun got off work, those seniors slipped away one after another in the name of drinking, leaving only a few unlucky ghosts and junior newcomers like him here to guard all night. It's nothing to stay up all night, and Ono Saiyu is also a bad boy, so it's common to not sleep for a few nights, but there's something weird in this building.
Fortunately, there was no moth until Ono walked into the bathroom to relieve himself, which couldn't help but ease his nervous mood a little, and even secretly laughed at himself for making a fuss, maybe it was really like what Furuta said before, the supernatural events that caused people to panic during this time were just some people looking at them and spreading false rumors.
Unscrewed the faucet casually, and the water gushed out of the water pipe, but Ono stiffened and stood on the spot.
A bright red, viscous liquid as thick as blood bubbled out of the faucet, and a few bubbles exploded from time to time, making a disgusting crackling sound; The light in the bathroom swished and became flickering and dim; A gust of cold wind blew through the window that had been opened at some point, and blew on Ono from dozens of meters in the air outside the building, faintly with the sound of snickering and laughing.
The bladder that had just been emptied seemed to be full of urine again, Ono's stiff neck was raised little by little, and he found that the reflection in the mirror in front of him was showing his white teeth and giggling, his bleeding eyes stared at him motionlessly, and there was a figure of a woman in white clothes who couldn't see her face clearly, and her black hand gradually climbed up to the neck of her reflection.
"Ahh
A scream shook the entire floor, and Ono rushed out of the bathroom and ran towards the office, the shadow dragged to the ground behind him turned into a posture of holding his stomach and laughing, as if laughing at his master's embarrassment.
"There are ghosts, there are ghosts."
Ono Saiyu, who ran back to the office, emotionally grabbed a bald man with a tall shoulder, ** tattooed on his upper body like a lifelike devil, foaming at the mouth and speaking incoherently, unaware that the other party had frowned deeply because of the saliva he sprayed on his body.
"Senior Gutian, he, what they said is true, there really is, there is..."
Syllable!
A ferocious slap knocked Ono to the ground, and at the same time pulled his soul back.
"Yaga, are you awake?"
"Hi, hi!"
Ono Nishiyu covered his swollen face, and immediately a fish stood up straight from the ground and replied respectfully. Unlike a newcomer like him, who is still young, the senior Gutian in front of him is an important role in the gang, and the reputation of "Red Ghost Field" is also a well-known number one person in the road.
"Now, let's get the situation straight."
"Yes."
Ono Saiyu, who had calmed down, told the story of what happened in the bathroom just now, and there was no way to hide it, and the few men who listened next to him also changed color a little.
"Huh?"
After listening to Ono's description, Furuta's two thick eyebrows were tightly wrinkled, and his already somewhat unkind face became even more vicious. Originally, the recent rumors in the company made him think that someone was playing tricks, so he only sat here last night, and now it sounds a little weird.
"Let's go, you guys come with me."
With a wave of his hand, Furuta simply decided to take a look and understand, and clicked on everyone left in the office.
"Hey!"
Although the others were a little uncomfortable, but after all, there were a lot of people present, but they weren't too scared, anyway, they were all ** molecules, and they didn't have the guts to come out and mix up?
However, Ono Nishiyu's face turned green when he heard it, but he didn't dare to say a word when he saw Gutian's vicious eyes beating him to death.
Gu Tian took two steps, opened the wall cabinet and took out a small knife, and pulled it out with a bang, the sharp blade shining brightly in the light.
Ono couldn't help but swallow his saliva when he looked at this knife, legend has it that Furuta's predecessors relied on this knife to cut down more than a dozen people from the hostile community, and escaped from the ambush with blood, so that he got the name "Akagida".
"Even if there is a resentful spirit, it will be hacked to death by this knife!"
Ono muttered to himself secretly, feeling much more relieved at the moment.
Led by Furuta, a group of people bravely walked through the corridor to the bathroom, but they didn't see anything unusual, except for the faucet that forgot to turn off and kept running, even the windows were tightly closed.
After checking it, Furuta looked back at Ono with an unkind face: "You kid..."
Before the voice fell, the change was abrupt.
The lights began to flicker again, illuminating all the figures in the bathroom, like a group of demons dancing wildly; The tap water in the faucet began to turn bright red like blood, and a cold wind gusted from the window; The mirror image also began to distort.
Gu Tian gasped in his heart, but he had been on guard before, and at this moment, the blood rushed, and the brutal strength of the ** slashing people came up, and he overwhelmed the fear of supernatural phenomena for a while, and the hand holding the knife didn't use a knife, so he directly grabbed the handle of the knife and smashed it on the mirror, smashing the mirror in an instant.
All that was heard was a shrill wail, and the surrounding scene instantly returned to its original state, leaving only splinters of mirrors on the sink.
"Senior Gutian is really powerful, even the ghosts and gods are frightened and retreat!"
Just when everyone was still looking at each other, it was Ono who had experienced this strange scene before who was the first to react, and he was overjoyed and sincerely flattered, and the others quickly woke up, and the sycophants followed one after another.
"It's worthy of the predecessors of the Red Ghost Field, and I really saw it today."
"I didn't expect Furuta Sang to be so powerful, I must brag about it when they come back."
Gu Tian was also stunned that he didn't expect this troublesome ghost to be so useless, and he just finished it as soon as he made a move, and he couldn't help but be proud.
"Ah~"
At this time, an exclamation broke everyone's welcome, and Gu Tian looked up unhappily and was suddenly startled.
At some point, the surrounding scene quietly changed again.
The brand-new bathroom, which had just been renovated a month ago, was now in tatters, as old as if it had weathered for decades, and the whitewashed walls curled and faded everywhere, revealing the crispy and beautiful inner bricks and steel bars; The white marble was stained with a large number of yellow scars, and there were cracks everywhere; The bright glow of the high-powered fluorescent lamps overhead somehow turned into the dim yellow of the old-fashioned bulbs, shining on the rotten wooden doors.
What's even more terrifying is that the unsuccessful juniors in Gu Tian's eyes, who were still whispering to greet him just now, have also become like dried corpses that have been exposed to the sun for decades after death, and the dry lips that open and close are not flattering, but puffs of black smoke, and they are constantly approaching their faces.
With a loud shout, Gu Tian subconsciously backhanded a knife, cutting out a bloody mark of the dried corpse in front of him, but what spewed out was a foul-smelling green liquid. Immediately his right hand hurt, and Gu Tian lowered his head to find that his beloved treasure knife was extremely unfamiliar at this time, and a mouth full of sharp teeth had grown on the handle of the knife at some point, and it was gnawing at his tiger's mouth with a puff.
Frightened, Gu Tian hurriedly threw the knife far away, and he could still hear the sound of giggling on the handle of the knife in mid-air, and then the brave and fearless "Red Ghost God" and the others escaped from the bathroom in unison, and ran towards the stairs in a panic, even if the innocent ** element who was slashed and seriously injured.
After a while, there was a chuckle in the calm bathroom, and Ye Ye's figure appeared in it out of thin air, but his spirit looked a little sluggish.
"For ordinary people, this illusion is really a big killer."
Everything recently, including the scene just now, is naturally a ghost for him, but he is not here to eliminate evil and promote good, in comparison, Ye Ye, who murdered and set fire to and robbed national treasures, committed more than ten times more crimes than these ** elements. He did this, in addition to a bit of playfulness, more to test the skills he had acquired in the previous world.
Needless to say, those abilities such as lion's roar and endurance are common to most worlds, but spell skills that are closer to spiritual power, such as the illusion technique, have to be tested carefully, after all, the strongest world in history doesn't seem to have this ability.
And through this half-month test, the results are also out. Out of the Taiko world, where information is particularly active, although skills such as the Illusion Technique and the Suggestion Technique can still be used, their effectiveness is greatly reduced, and it has become extremely difficult to activate. The scene that confused a few ordinary people just now, and the scope of the impact was only a small bathroom, almost exhausted most of Ye Ye's spirit.
"At this level, I'm afraid it can't be used as a killer feature, at most it can only interfere with the master." Ye Ye estimated it in his heart and shook his head. After all, the intuitive acuity of the masters with the sense of the six virtues has far surpassed that of ordinary people, and the top masters such as "One Shadow and Nine Fists" and Liang Shanbo can use the detection qi as the basis for fighting, and such never-before-seen illusions can certainly scare them, but it is too naïve to want to win with this. Moreover, in the dozens and hundreds of life-and-death encounters in an instant, it was impossible for Ye Ye to have the time and energy to launch the illusion, if he did this, he would have his head unscrewed off because of distraction before the illusion interfered with the enemy.
"Even so, if it's used well, it's enough for me to gain an advantage in battle."
Not dissatisfied with this, Ye Ye smiled slightly, raised his hand, and the water droplets that were still flowing from the faucet suddenly exploded and turned into a white mist shrouded in the bathroom, covering his figure, and after a while, the white mist dissipated, and there was no one inside.
