Chapter 7: This Despair, Empathy

In the process of ascending the elevator, Ji Wutong saw a lot of things, even including many fragments that he thought he had successfully forgotten, which flashed in front of his eyes, and the abstract and strange pictures like a palette in the naked eye were extremely clear in his mind.

The originally short ascent time seemed to be pulled to an incomparably long time, and a voice whispered in Ji Wutong's ear: "We are the same, there is no difference, we have lost too much, we are eager to recover, we want to be cherished......"

Father and mother disappeared on the day of his eleventh birthday, the expectant teenager waited alone at home until dawn, but the familiar sound of pushing the door did not come again, no relatives visited, no friends cared, the little Ji Wutong asked for three days off for himself, locked all the negative emotions in a corner of his heart, and began to live alone......

Looking at the rusty iron sheet in front of him, he seemed to see the door of his childhood home that was often ajar, the smile on and under the mask disappeared at the same time, Ji Wutong stood silently in place, the elevator was still moving, but from the second floor that had risen to it, it unconsciously became 2-1-B1-B2......

"The shadows of childhood are deep and heavy, this despair, empathize......" whispers came from all directions again, ethereal and soft, but pervasive.

Home is still home, but the protagonist is a different person, in another house, a skinny figure curled up on the sofa, cartoons are looping on TV, all the lights in the house are turned on, finally, the knock on the door, the little man smiled and wiped away the tears of fear, and staggered to open the door, but the harvest was belated bad news.

"I'm sorry, kid. Mr. Policeman, who couldn't see his face clearly, apologized formulaically: "This is a regrettable traffic accident. ”

【Liar!!】

The little guy slammed the door shut, but he couldn't stop the passage of time.

"The verdict is out, and the other party has already lost the money, but do you really have five or six guardians......

【Liar!!】

The verdict is fake! Is it really just a matter of losing money in a driving accident caused by drunkenness!? I don't believe it, I don't believe it! But the other party who has no evidence has a very good background, haha, the object of the loss of money is probably not himself, but those so-called 'blood relatives'! Where were the parents when they were running around outside!? Guardians or something, are they funny!?

Prodigies exist, DNA mutations, early brain development, and far beyond the limits of ordinary human intelligence exist, but it will definitely bring trouble to parents, right? This world is not so simple, so let's cover it up well, like a normal child, playing with mud, building blocks, and singing nursery rhymes......

But now, there is no need to be so careful......

Ji Wutong seemed to be flipping through a certain book, reading the memories of a certain child, the smiling face on the mask had already frowned, as if he was grieving for someone he had never met, and then, another memory of his own was inserted......

B2β€”β€”B3β€”β€”B4β€”β€”

"The people around me are afraid and alienated, but the imaginary beauty is fleeting, this kind of despair, empathize with ......"

Ji Wutong has no friends, maybe he has, but after his physique that will make the people around him constantly suffer from strange troubles is revealed, he will no longer have it, even if he doesn't mind how strange a good boy he is, he will be afraid that he will let others suffer unnecessary misfortunes......

"It's that little ghost, you have to stay away from him..."

"You can't play with Sycamore, don't ask why, I'd rather believe it ......"

"Teacher, can our child's seat be adjusted, sit next to that child, he has a high fever twice this month......

Look, that's it, real or fake, as if to the 'witches' of the Middle Ages, since it is impossible to burn at the stake in a society governed by the rule of law, then stay away like the plague.

Of course, there are exceptions......

"You dropped something, here you go. Passing over a round ornament, the little girl in front of her in a light green skirt made Little Sycamore want to get close.

"Thank you. The other party smiled sweetly and stretched out his little white hand: "I'm here to accompany my father to see friends, but I don't have any friends here, can you be friends with me?"

"Of course...... "I really want to hold it, have a friend, and no longer be single without even my parents, it's such a good girl, so ......

"Of course not. Xiao Wutong, who was carrying a schoolbag, turned around: "I don't need friends." ”

[Can't bring bad luck to this good girl.] 】

I heard a faint choking sound behind me, and something seemed to be swirling in my eyes......

"Why can't we be like normal people?! Why do we think that we are the embodiment of bad luck? This kind of despair, empathize!"

B5β€”β€”B6β€”β€”B7β€”β€”

The other little guy wandered to another city, let those guys take the compensation money or something, who the enemy is has already remembered, take your time, don't hurry......

I found a school-age school, relied on illegal online gambling to earn tuition and rent, perfectly forged my identity, perfect grades, and was still alone.

Human beings are very strange creatures, and when they are surrounded by people with talents that most people do not have, most people will not worship them, but they will hate them, and this kind of thing is not limited to the adult world.

"Another hundred, is she a monster?"

"I kept a straight face all day and didn't talk much, my mother said it was a mental illness. ”

"Psychopathy, will she hurt us!"

"Definitely! This kind of person is scary, ah, she looks this way, let's go to the playground and play!"

In a sense, they're right.

But is there a problem with the act of defaming without being able to understand?

"Of course there is......" Ji Wutong muttered to himself, as if responding to a certain voice.

"Yes, yes! This despair, empathize!!"

B8β€”β€”B9β€”β€”B10β€”β€”

Ji Wutong's memory may still be long, but the other child has already ushered in his own end, or it can also be called a new life.

The raging flames burned on the mansion behind them, the screams of the enemies were so pleasant, the plan was successful, the pain of not eating or drinking for days and hiding in the ventilation pipes was extremely worthwhile, there was nothing to be nostalgic for in this world, the siren was already sounding in the distance, it was late, it was useless, just like that, let me die......

"Maybe you're going to be in the hospital for the rest of your life, kid. "It's still the same policeman, but this time there is some sincerity in his eyes, or cheap sympathy?

It doesn't matter if he is sent to a hospital in a distant city as a minor psychopath......

B11β€”β€”B12β€”β€”B13β€”β€”

Raised like a pig, there is no one to communicate with, no knowledge to learn, and a boring life.

Wait, why did you take me into the operating room!? I'm not sick, why did you give me anesthetics!

"Don't be afraid, it's just a physical examination for you......" The strange doctor looked away.

【Liar!!】

Originally... Is it for the organs...... Scold... Hehe... This damn world...

It's cold...

It's going to die, it's going to die, maybe, it's already dead......

When I opened my eyes, I was in a familiar ward, but the door could be passed through without opening, and I couldn't see myself when I was facing others...... Actually, it doesn't matter... But......

People who don't have money can't get medical treatment!

Good people can't live in peace!

The guilty did not pay the price!

Same human beings, completely different treatment!

Someone else's happy and warm family!

AngerAngerAnger......

It seems to be full of power!

So, let's play the game......

"Revenge on these people, revenge on this unfair world! this desperate ......"

B14β€”β€”B15β€”β€”B16β€”β€”

With a long sigh, Ji Wutong spoke: "This kind of despair, empathize...... Right?"

"Yes! Someone has to pay the price!"

B17β€”β€”

The elevator stopped!

Ji Wutong's right hand pressed on the ascending button, and the expression on the mask changed from sad and angry to a somewhat weird crying and laughing......

"I'm sorry, I can't go with you just yet. Feeling that the elevator was getting farther and farther away from the unknown floor, Ji Wutong said apologetically: "I empathize with your despair, but I can't agree with your behavior." ”

B16β€”β€”B15β€”β€”B14β€”β€”

The voice fell silent......

"I don't mind if someone who does something wrong has to pay. Ji Wutong sighed: "However, there is more than despair in this world, at least, when your parents are still there, at least, when someone stretches out their hand to me, that feeling will definitely not be despair, what do you say?"

He was only silent in response......

B1β€”β€”1β€”β€”2β€”β€”3

The elevator door opened.

Ji Wutong shrugged: "Let me save you." ”

He stepped out of the elevator and was startled......

Okay, let's turn our attention to another part of this hospital, at this moment, Ye Xi's situation is very unoptimistic.

"Raging Thunder!"

A white electric light shot out from Ye Xi's palm, and two dry bones in white coats fell to the ground in smoke, one of the skulls was still growing its mouth, and it made a hoarse voice that was completely inconsistent with biology: "Go to death! Happy little girl! I..."

Syllable!

The Black Knight's sword smashed the noisy skull, but the voice continued to scream from the mouth of the nurse-uniformed monster coming from behind: "I'll watch you! Watch you despair! Watch you be torn to pieces little by little!!"

"Silent Hill! It's endless!" Ye Xi shouted coldly, the sickle in his hand spun out, and the three rotten heads fell to the ground, but his body continued to move forward!

Ye Xi was in a long corridor at this time, the surrounding walls including the floor were all black bloodstains, and countless zombie skeletons seemed to be pouring in a blockbuster of the world, among the demons and monsters, the ghost's attack method was the most difficult and headache, weird, terrifying, and unexpected.

"It's obviously just an illusion, but it's the same as the entity, is there a real resentful spirit in every illusion?!" Ye Xi said sharply: "How many people have you killed!"

The voice came from the syringe flying in the air again, this time in a crisp baby voice: "No, I didn't kill anyone, it's just that everyone is very wronged to die, and it has nothing to do with me if they want to kill you." ”

Ye Xi was stunned: "You guys, so that guy is not dead?"

The voice didn't continue

Like a white lotus blooming on top of an iceberg, Ye Xi, who had been keeping a cold face, smiled: "Can't you kill a ghost of your level?" It seems that I have to work hard, no matter what, I don't want to be underestimated by him!"

The black compass was pressed on the short handle of the shadow sickle, the black mist swept away, the visibility in the corridor had become extremely low, the knight of spades and the white wolf guarded her sides, and the different pupils overlapped Ye Xi's right eye, quickly fused with the latter, giving Ye Xi night vision at the same time, but also dyed her eyes scarlet.

And the shadow sickle that fused with the compass had turned into a giant scythe of more than two meters, which was being held upside down by Ye Xi at this time.

"It's really not beautiful at all...... Ye Xi muttered to herself, she really rarely complains in this state: "Is it because she looks like a villain that she is so powerful?"

Before the words fell, the resentful spirits on both sides of the corridor had already begun to drive the illusion as a carrier to rush towards Ye Xi frantically, it was obvious that a certain existence had already sensed the threat and didn't want to play anymore.

"Then let you see and see......" Taking a slight step back, Ye Xi's figure had completely merged into the black mist that spread throughout the corridor, and all the resentful spirits had lost their goals almost at the same time.

- Crimson Killer!

As soon as the huge scythe blade appeared in the group of resentful spirits more than ten meters away, more than a dozen white coat skeletons were instantly cut in half, and before they could get up from the ground like before, wisps of black mist seeped out from various places such as spine, skull, and calf bones, and melted into the surrounding fog.

The scarlet eyes were the only clue, but at this moment, Ye Xi's speed had far exceeded the sluggish movements of those resentful spirits, and every flicker appeared in another place, and every swing of the scythe would take away at least seven or eight resentful spirits!

This is one of the abilities of the spirit controller Ye Xi, who fuses the black compass with the shadow sickle that symbolizes the condensation of power, fuses the multiple visions of the different pupils, and has the state of a scarlet killer guarded by knights and beasts!

Unstoppable, unstoppable, uncontained, in just two minutes, the originally impassable corridor has been completely cleaned up, carrying a slender black scythe, Ye Xi stepped on the steps leading to the second floor, the elevator that Ji Wutong took before did not exist in Ye Xi's ghost mirror at all, but the purpose was the same.

"Symbolism is being consumed all the time, how could Uncle Zhang Peng arrange such an excessive task......" Ye Xi complained in a low voice: "In fact, in this environment, even it is difficult for me to survive..."

"That's right! You're not going to survive!!"

A huge ghost figure came to him, and Ye Xi swung out his backhand scythe, but it was cut into the air!

[Oops! It's not an entity! It's a spiritual attack......]

The scythe slid down, and the girl's cold expression disappeared, replaced by a somewhat confused little face, and then her eyes widened, and tears poured out of the corners of her eyes.

Ji Wutong fell softly in front of her, at least twenty scalpels were inserted into him, his dilated pupils no longer had any lustre, and next to him, his father who always had a straight face but a warm face and his mother, who had always cared for him, were also paralyzed there, bound by black chains, bleeding from his seven orifices......

"Dad, Mom, Ji Wutong...... Don't, don't......"

The little girl knelt on the ground, tears falling in large drops, and her psychological defense line had completely collapsed......

That's right, after using the first symbolic power, Ye Xi will become cold and strong, enough to ignore most illusions and psychological tactics, but this doesn't mean that the usual confused little girl can accept these cruelty, the black ghost head just now directly hit Ye Xi's spiritual world, blasting out her softest emotions and nature......

"It's all your fault...... If you come back alive, how could I have fallen into a trap to avenge you......"

"Xiaoxi, my mother is so uncomfortable, save my mother's ......"

"Hey, little girl...... I have a way to ......"

Ji Wutong, who should have been completely dead, made a slight sound.

"What a way! I ...... What should I do, what should I do... Whining... can save you......" Ye Xi asked while crying in front of the three of them.

"That's ......"

"That's it?"

"That's to die with us!!"

The three 'people' laughed wildly and pounced on Ye Xi, so that they couldn't die, and when 'mother' stretched out her hand, she happened to touch a copper coin in Ye Xi's pocket through her clothes.

One piece, transfer money......

God calculates Du Tian's transfer money!

Then she grabbed the air and fell to the ground fiercely, and tripped 'Dad' by the way, 'Ji Wutong' just stepped over the two and was about to catch Ye Xi, but the ceiling above collapsed with a bang, not only smashed it to the ground, but also dropped a person.

"Uh......" Ji Wutong glanced at 'himself' who was pressed into the ground in a daze, and then turned his head to see Ye Xi curled up in the corner with pear blossoms and rain, and said hello with a dry smile: "Hi...... You're here too?"

β€œ......”

In the next second, he crashed directly into Ji Wutong's arms and cried loudly.

"Woo... I thought, I thought everyone was dead, Dad, Mom, you...... It's so scary, I hate ghosts the most! Demons, demons, monsters, monsters, you can be the most afraid of ghosts!"

Ji Wutong didn't know where to put his hand, and his face was slightly reddened and reassured: "Okay, it's okay, it's just an illusion, don't you always deal with these things? Stand up, we should run for our lives......"

The three disguised wraiths had staggered to their feet, let out a shrill howl, and staggered at the two.

"You... You called my name not long after you entered, and people thought you were in danger, so they rushed in, this place is not something we can handle, there must be something wrong! This is the big ghost realm! The most terrifying big ghost realm!" Ye Xi stood up with Ji Wutong's shoulders, and said to Ji Wutong while running back.

"Ah, it was my mistake, I had a vision, and I thought you were ...... Well, let's not talk about this first, it's true that I almost died on the third floor, hurry up and run, I guess that guy is going to chase after him soon!!" Ji Wutong pulled Ye Xi, and kept looking back as he spoke, the three disguised resentful spirits were not to be afraid, but the bone-chilling coldness was slowly approaching the two of them, and an emaciated figure jumped down from the collapsed place at the top of the corridor, and was looking back at Ye Ji and the others.

"What is that!?" Ye Xi, who found that a faint white mist had begun to appear between his breaths, and was surprised that the temperature around him was dropping sharply, hurriedly asked.

Ji Wutong took Ye Xi's hand while accelerating, and said a little hurried because of shortness of breath: "Do you remember that package? The recipient is Zhang Dong from Room 307 here, it's him!"

"Did he receive the package?" Ye Xi blinked her eyes and asked, speeding up her pace a little, but now it was her pulling Ji Wutong to run.

"Hehe..."Ji Wutong laughed dryly: "In the package is a gift he gave to his six-year-old daughter before his death, a glass flower, but before I handed it to him, I don't know what it was broken, and then, he went crazy!!"

"So what do we do now?"

"Run to the basement!!"

"And then!?"

"Find a way while running!!"

I don't know if the transfer money had an effect, but when the ghosts in the back kept closing the gap with the two, the third floor collapsed without warning!

Ji Wutong and Ye Xi were separated in the lobby on the second floor.

The wind was gusting around, and the ghosts were shimmering......

There is no way to go up to heaven and no door to go down to earth.
