Chapter Ninety-Seven: It's Dark
It was just an ordinary funeral.
Everyone came over, ate cold food, met some strange or familiar friends, and sent this old friend on his last journey, as if to explain to the world in this form that this person has just ended his life, but the witnesses are still alive in the world.
Wei Wei participated in the whole process with a sense of novelty.
He saw that Captain Ouyang grabbed the first handful of soil and sprinkled it in, and then Uncle Gun took a shovel with Brother Pig and filled it with soil, but seeing that Brother Pig was out of breath after a few fills, Wei Wei took the initiative to step forward and take over the shovel.
With Uncle Gun, one left and one right, he moved the mound that had been moved to the next three or four meters and filled it in little by little.
When I was doing this work, I was actually very calm.
I don't know if it's because of the feeling just now, or the new ability of the third stage of the scarlet power.
When Wei Wei was at peace in his heart, he could actually feel the gaze of the people around him.
They all stood quietly on both sides, watching the coffin being slowly buried, some in awe, some regretful, and some admired.
However, there is no schadenfreude.
Even the leader of the mysterious family who had been taught a lesson by Uncle Gun before was only slightly relieved.
Probably because he suddenly really saw the strength of his opponent, and felt that any revenge he had before was naΓ―ve?
Indeed, this old man, with his death, let everyone intuitively see the horror of the demon of war.
While thinking about this, Wei Wei suddenly found a strange emotion in the eyes around him.
It is different from others, only some pity, and helplessness.
Subconsciously turning around, his eyes passed through the gap between the surrounding people, and he suddenly saw that on the edge of the manor, on the low wall near the side of the hillside, behind the rows of big trees, there was actually a figure wearing a priest's robe and a small red hat on his head.
The figure was unusually familiar, like a memory from three years ago.
This made Wei Wei feel startled, and hurriedly stood up straight, his eyes jumped over everyone's heads, and looked in the direction of the row of big trees.
Empty and silent, no one exists.
"Did I read it wrong?"
Wei Wei was a little surprised for a while.
But when he noticed the suspicious glances of the people around him, he quickly retracted his mind.
Right now, helping the elderly complete the last part of the funeral is the most important thing, right?
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
The tomb has been filled in and the funeral is over.
It stands to reason that now it is time to say goodbye to the family and comfort them softly, but the family members have hid in the tall building from the beginning and have not shown up, so everyone can't help but feel a little embarrassed, and many people have set their eyes on Captain Ouyang, I don't know if he should replace the position of the family, but looking at his gloomy face, I really feel that it is difficult to say such comforting words.
After Wei Wei helped fill in the soil, he slowly walked to the low wall to the west.
He walked around the tree where he had just seen the figure, and did not see anyone, but under a tree, he squatted down lightly and quietly looked at the weeds, where a blooming rose was lying quietly among the weeds.
Wei Wei squatted in front of the rose, looked up at the location of the cemetery, and suddenly smiled.
Got up and walked into the courtyard, and stepped on the rose.
"Xiaolin, how is the communication with the above?"
At the same time, Captain Ouyang had also found Brother Xiaolin and asked anxiously.
"It's like you said before, Captain."
Brother Xiaolin said: "After handing in the report, I will urge it twice a day." β
"They said that this matter is too important, and the evidence is insufficient, and it needs to be verified, and let us be vigilant and wait patiently for a reply, as for the witnesses we have prepared, they do not recommend escorting the Second City defense line, saying that it is good to be detained here first."
"These damn bureaucrats ......"
Captain Ouyang's face was gloomy: "We can't wait. β
"When Lao Zhou is dead, the scrap iron city has lost its biggest deterrent."
"A city without the demon of war can't deter the ambitious guys around it!"
"As for Xiao Wei......"
ββ¦β¦β
There was a hint of anxiety on his face, and his hair, which was usually neatly combed, seemed to be faintly messy.
"Captain, if there's nothing to do this afternoon, I'll go back first."
After the funeral, it seems that Captain Ouyang is going to stay here for a while, he has a very good relationship with this war demon old man, and he is an elder, so he naturally has to help deal with many affairs that are inconvenient for outsiders to interfere in, Sister Lucky and Brother Xiaolin and others are ready to go back first, Wei Wei waited for a while, and when he didn't see the tall girl coming down, he also took the initiative to say goodbye......
I didn't even know the old man's name, so I became his send-off.
Came to a funeral, just ate a cold meal, fired a gun for three minutes, and then helped fill in the soil.
It sounded strange, but Wei Wei felt that something seemed to affect him.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
first sent Ye Feifei and Brother Xiaolin back to the base, and then Wei Weixi took the shift and returned to his home.
When I pushed the door in, a cold breath came to the surface.
Wei Wei was slightly surprised, and immediately saw that the stopper of the glass bottle he had placed on the windowsill had been overturned at some point.
When I looked up, I saw a ghost lady twenty centimeters above the ground, floating lightly in the room.
He stretched out his head and blew out the dust on the windowsill and in the corners with his mouth.
Piled together, spilling out the window.
The whole room is bright red, clean and spotless, and even produces a feeling of being too clean and uncomfortable.
"Huh?"
Wei Wei was really a little surprised: "Do you still love cleanliness so much when you're dead?" β
As he thought, he entered the room with his shoes on, breathed a long sigh of relief, and sat down on the couch.
The ghost lady by the window suddenly looked at him with a cold face.
"Ghosts seem to have a strong sense of territory......"
Wei Wei thought to himself: "Is she treating my family as her own territory?" β
As to respect the instincts of living beings, even necromantic beings.
So Wei Wei didn't mind, just took off his shoes, kicked on the ground next to him, and took out the lunch he had packed.
The ghost lady's face, which was not angry with the living, seemed to have an unusually uncomfortable expression.
Staring at the shoes that Wei Wei threw beside him, as if looking at the enemy.
Wei Wei ignored her, and just began to concentrate on enjoying the super large portion of pork ribs and rice, and stir-fried spicy mustard shreds in oil.
To be honest, he still likes the kind of funeral where the whole village is feasted with a trumpet.
Now this kind of food, it's not easy to get full.
At this moment, a sudden gust of wind blew around, and the ghost lady sat at the other end of the sofa, looking at the pork ribs and rice, her eyes showed a look of nostalgia, and then raised her head slightly, looking intoxicated, as if enjoying the food.
"Huh?"
Wei Wei looked at her action, which was like a meal, and was very surprised.
The ghost naturally does not need to eat, unless it is blessed by special demonic power, it can make the appearance of a meal, but the spirit body is unable to carry out the complex physical behavior of eating, but it is precisely because she is a spirit body, so she only needs to see with her eyes, and the spirit body produces corresponding changes, and she can also enjoy the long-lost pleasure of dining in its remaining spiritual world......
Now what she has done to Wei Wei is such an act.
And it seems that the dining etiquette is quite standard......
It's just that......
I bought it back to test the new ability, why did she come and live with her?
"Forget it, just eat it if you want to."
Wei Wei sighed, and pushed the spicy fried oil mustard shreds towards her.
Anyway, unlike in folklore, things that have been used by ghosts will have less taste...... That's unscientific.
After a full meal, Wei Wei always felt a little tired, and the feeling of satiety made him feel lazy, so he pushed the lunch box on the coffee table, crossed his legs, and fell comfortably on the sofa, and then lit a cigarette with satisfaction, and looked at the ceiling blankly.
The ghost lady glanced at the bedroom inside and expressed her displeasure with Wei Wei's behavior.
glanced at the lunch box on the coffee table, and expressed even more dissatisfaction with Wei Wei.
She seemed to have a hard time accepting Wei Wei's habit of not going back to sleep in the bedroom, and even harder to accept his habit of not tidying up the table.
But Wei Wei has always liked to curl up on this small sofa to sleep, and he has been so since he moved here, so he didn't intend to deal with her at all, until the ghost lady had become more and more angry, and the face that was beautiful but had become mutilated, with many dead features, gradually accumulated a creepy anger, and suddenly, fiercely floated towards Wei Wei.
Wei Wei spat out a cigarette and raised his hand to wipe the sickle hanging on the wall, blood gushing out of the wound.
"Horn ......"
The ghost lady knelt in front of the sofa, grabbed Wei Wei's palm, and started to click.
The world is quiet......
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
Wei Wei threw the half-smoked cigarette into the residual soup, only to feel that his eyelids were a little astringent.
Since returning from the funeral, he has been surging with some strange emotions in his heart, and his mind has been replaying the scene of the funeral.
The power of scarlet is inextricably linked to "death".
Even during the bootcamp, there was an attempt to index and prove that Crimson was actually a branch of the Death Demon.
In any case, because of the existence of this core, Wei Wei is no stranger to "death", especially the matter of sending people to death, and he also knows that the power of scarlet is always producing deeper and more bizarre changes with the emergence of various deaths.
But now, it seems that he has seen a kind of death that he has not seen before.
"I hope the mentor didn't trust the wrong person......
In his ears, he couldn't help but flash the words that the tall girl said to himself.
In front of me, a scene began to appear, it was the old man in the cage, looking at himself and smiling at the end......
The scarlet power came alive, and mysterious whispers echoed in the deep dreams.
Blood covered the surface of his feet, Wei Wei walked in the sea of blood, and saw the front, the fourth execution frame, which had become clear.
Above, the giant who was hanging from the row frame opened his eyes darkly.
Faintly, looking at himself in a deep and mysterious way.
β¦β¦
"Hoo ......"
I don't know how long it took, Wei Wei suddenly woke up groggily, feeling that the world around him seemed to be a little unreal.
Outside, it was already dark.
He suddenly felt very tired all over, raised his hand and touched his forehead, and it was faintly hot.
"I ...... Sick? β
