Chapter 188: Innocence and Reality (II)
Xi stood quietly in the open space outside the room, waiting patiently for them with his hands folded, now he had to give these young people a little time to buffer, otherwise it would not be ideal to continue the task with such a panicked attitude. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
A few minutes later, Hu Xiaoyun also came out of the door, walked behind Xi and began to feel around him, as if he was looking for something, but he didn't seem to find it.
"Excuse me, do you have a cigarette?"
Hee looked back at him, didn't say anything, took out a fancy cigarette case from his trouser pocket and handed it to him, along with a lighter.
Hu Xiaoyun took a sip after igniting it, and because he inhaled too much at once, it caused some brain dizziness. He looked at Xi with great interest and asked in a tentative tone, "In this magical world, there are these things... You say you're a facilitator, and your job is to receive people like us who are 'invited' by invitations, do you usually live here? ”
Xi knew that he wanted to know more about the half-soul world, but there was nothing to hide, and nodded slightly, "Yes, according to my own timing method, I have been living here for more than twenty years"
"More than twenty years... Hu Xiaoyun was a little incredulous, could it be that this man had always lived in this world full of real ghosts? So what kind of life does he usually live? And in terms of appearance, he is about the same age as himself and others. It aroused more curiosity for a while, and then habitually took out a cigarette and handed it back to Hee.
Hee didn't look at him either, and continued, "I don't smoke, but I always have these things on my body before I have to work, and I provide them for you."
Hu Xiaoyun shook the ash of his cigarette and said, "I have too many questions in my heart, but I don't know where to start." Now we can only think of what to ask, whether we are only the soul being pulled in, or the body is also together ... ”
"There are different kinds of people invited, if it's a living person like you, it's just a soul, if it's a ghost, it's a body. Although I myself am a living person, I am also pulled in with my body and soul because I am different from you, but I advise you not to continue to ask about me, it is meaningless. Hee Sheng was afraid that he would have a lot of doubts about the guide itself like many people, so he said it in advance, which really didn't make sense, and the invitee didn't need to understand the guide, but should use more of his mind on himself, after all, the guide was never the protagonist.
Xi's way of answering questions is very direct, and his performance is always so indifferent, although he is not as rigid as a robot, but he is indeed not like ordinary people, but Hu Xiaoyun can be regarded as getting the answer he wants.
Seeing that Hu Xiaoyun was not talking, smoking a cigarette by himself, Xi asked him something instead, "Why are you interested in these supernatural things?" "This is very incomprehensible, according to common sense, although not everyone believes in ghosts, but it is also respectful, why would anyone study this aspect of things? And some college students in ivory towers.
Hu Xiaoyun has obviously been asked this kind of question by many people before, so the answer is very methodical: "Interested, just out of curiosity." Just as Darwin had a deep attachment to animals, so do we. Although it seems to ordinary people that we study these things very unreasonably, to put it mildly, it is not a proper job or a psychopath. But this is probably a kind of nature, the reason why we can come together is that we all have a common characteristic, that is, we have been interested in supernatural things since childhood, and even if we have received a lot of scientific education, we have not diluted it. I believe that the supernatural and the scientific are two completely separate concepts, and although they have been contradictory for many years, I have always retained respect and belief in both, and now it turns out that ... We're not wrong, there are demons and monsters in this world."
Xi smiled bitterly, and asked in a tone mixed with sarcasm, "That... Now that you've actually experienced it yourself, how do you feel? Interesting? ”
Hu Xiaoyun knew what Xi meant, but he didn't answer positively, "This can only show that we are inexperienced, and very few people can really experience supernatural time in real life, and even if there are, most of them are rumors that are both true and false." I also thought about how I would face these things that I had been looking for for if I were to face ghosts one day."
It seems that Xi's awareness of the supernatural community is still insufficient, at least Hu Xiaoyun himself is a little underestimated, judging from his remarks and various performances just now, he is not just a "supernatural lover", that is, because the supernatural is not in the current era, otherwise he would really have to regard this as a profession.
However, Hee didn't intend to discuss this issue with him in depth, just turned around and smiled at him, "Young man, I can only give you one suggestion. When someone feels that they have been bored for too long, they often have some thoughts about looking for excitement, which is normal. But it was only after really experiencing the stormy things that I found out ... Ordinary life is so beautiful, and this is the truth that I have learned from many invitees over the years as a guide. I hope you can understand that sometimes don't ignore the truest happiness around you in order to chase your ideals."
Hu Xiaoyun didn't interject, just nodded silently. Xi's words are not difficult for him to understand, and the truth in them can be understood as soon as he hears them. It's just that everyone has to experience everything to know what they want.
Xi looked into the room, and everyone else also walked to the door, only He Zhenyu seemed to be still inside and didn't come out.
Hu Xiaoyun then explained, "Uh... Please give them a little time, Qiu Wenjing's death hit all of us too hard, and we were all a little frightened for a while. And,Everybody is a classmate.。。。 ”
Hee raised his hand and interrupted him, "It's okay, in fact, your psychological quality is already very good." I don't think it's going to be better than you if you want to change people, and there's no time limit for the second mission, so let them be."
After another ten minutes, He Zhenyu walked out hobbled out with his hands covered with blood. Hu Xiaoyun just wanted to walk up and comfort him, but he waved his hand, as if he wanted to be quiet for a while, and then sat down on the steps with his head down and said nothing.
For a while, the scene fell into embarrassment again, and everyone frowned tightly and thought about it.
The cabin they were in now was the outermost part of the town, and according to Xi's experience, if they wanted to find something the size of a "human face" in such a large area, they would definitely have to go inside.
After Ma Chun walked outside, he also took a look at the interior of the town in advance, the lights inside were flashing colorfully, and it looked very prosperous and lively at night, and his heart was suddenly puzzled. Hee once said that there would be no living people here other than them, so what is there living in this town now?
In order to ease the atmosphere, Hu Xiaoyun deliberately diverted the topic, "Well, looking at the scale and architectural style of this town, it seems to be... Japan? And at least in the Edo period, right? ”
Du Shuang was also crying like a cat just now, hearing Hu Xiaoyun speak, her sluggish spirit came back to her senses a little, she also glanced at the town a few times, shrugged her crying red nose and said, "Oh... In fact, it is more like the Heian period, that is, the era when Japanese legends are most rampant with demons and ghosts. (To be continued.) )
