Chapter 238: Death Q&A

Yi Chen was not stingy and directly offered all the big bags of tomb tea he had just gotten.

Although tea is a good thing, it is not a necessity, and it can be purchased directly from the organization in the future, so there is no need to drink the highest tomb tea at the beginning.

As all the tea leaves were rolled into the old woman's mouth, the opposite side immediately showed a satisfied expression.

"Young people nowadays are really sensible, and the conversation time is still an hour, but I'll give you something else......"

The old woman stretched out her fingers, which were as dry as a dead tree, and touched her cheek.

"Your "dead man's makeup" is only used for disguise, and this is not enough, I will teach you some more effective and deadly "makeup", which will help you a lot now.

Come to me every Saturday night at 12:00 and study for an hour. ”

"Thank you, Granny Tang."

"Don't thank me, after all, you're the second 'Unable to Die' I've seen in all these years of life, and the first is of course myself.

Just ask whatever you want, and remember to leave the room before this candle burns out, or I may not be able to control my festering mental urge to do something too good to you. ”

The old woman's blackened, sore tongue churned rapidly in the air, sometimes folding, sometimes tumbling, making a strange sound of flesh.

It seems that as long as Yi Chen can't leave on time, he will accept the punishment brought by this tongue.

Yi Chen did not reject Granny Tang's strange behavior at all, and seized the time to ask key questions:

"I wonder why we can live like this after we die? And not die quietly like most people. ”

Granny Tang took out a piece of sandpaper from between the drawers and began to polish the wrinkles on her face, answering as she polished:

"I searched for the answer to this question for a long time, and at first I thought it was related to zombies, until a Taoist priest put all his talismans on me and I still broke my neck, which was dismissed.

Later, for a while, I thought that I was not treated well by Lord Yama for some reason, and I did not send anyone to hook the soul when I died, so the soul remained in the corpse and lived.

But I've never seen anything bullish and horse-like for so long, and with the development of social technology, I no longer believe in such things.

Later, I went to a psychiatric hospital and gradually discovered a problem in my daily conversations with Dr. Lu Xin.

It's been 471 years since I died, and many things have been abandoned and forgotten by me, but there are still some things that I have always remembered in my heart, and my whole body twitches with hatred every time I think about them.

Combined with the research in the psychiatric hospital, it is probably speculated that it is related to the strong obsession I had during my lifetime, and the intensity of the obsession will not subside for half a minute no matter how time passes.

It is this strong obsession that keeps me 'alive'.

When this obsession begins to fade, I may die like a normal person...... Young man, you must have some kind of strong obsession in your heart, right? I can see the reluctance and hatred in your eyes. ”

"Yes."

"That's right, we do belong to the same category, the [weirdness] associated with death."

Granny Tang's last words made Yi Chen stunned,

In the past two years of "temporary worker" life, with all kinds of strange contacts and killings, Yi Chen also began to wonder if the state of the dead he presented was also a weird category.

Granny Tang continued: "The world we live in seems to be stable and peaceful, but in fact it is chaotic...... and there are many variables and uncontrollable beings such as [humans], which are born of consciousness by chance.

With a huge population base, there are always some people who are unsociable, extreme, tyrannical, and paranoid.

Their thinking has been constantly distorted in the process of growing up, and this distortion has slowly affected the soul roots, causing them to change from the roots, and eventually become the so-called [weird].

However, we are not exactly the same as this group of guys, we are completely self-controlled, but we just have trouble controlling our emotions when it comes to obsessions.

Unlike other weird creatures, you have to find an opportunity to vent every day, and even take pleasure in abuse, fear-mongering, and massacre.

I've killed people too, but it was 400 years ago. ”

"I see......"

Yi Chen, who got this answer, also nodded, feeling reasonable,

He can also fully accept the ending of waiting until the orphanage is razed to the ground, killing Director Cao, untying the knot, leaving behind his obsession and dying.

Then

Granny Tang, who had already polished half of her face to the appearance of a forty-year-old, licked the polished dead skin powder with her tongue, chewed and swallowed it, and continued to say:

"The above is just the subjective speculation of an old lady of mine, and perhaps there are deeper and more important reasons that are unknown. As a fellow species, we can discuss this matter slowly in the future.

Remember the promise every Saturday that I would light a candle and wait for you. ”

Yi Chen glanced at the red candle lit on the dresser, there was still about 1/6 of the length left, and hurried to ask the last question.

He lifted his hand and felt a drop of black liquid from the bullet hole in his eyebrow.

"What is this?"

"I don't know what black liquid is and why it comes out of our bodies.

All I know is that the black liquid increases with the time of our death, its use, and certain factors, and I have it all over my body now.

The blood that runs through my body, the tissue fluid that adheres to the surface of my organs, and the sweat that spills out of my pores are all like this.

Do not reject it,

Black liquor is unique to us, a very important part of our body, and may even be a gift from death.

Try to contact it, try to manipulate it, it will be our most effective self-defense tool when we encounter danger. Of course, if you want to kill, it will also help out, and it's very efficient.

It's time for you to leave, young man...... Otherwise, I really won't be able to control myself. ”

The remnant candle flickered,

Yi Chen felt a strange feeling from under his feet, and when he looked down, he saw that the black liquid on the ground had actually turned into tongue creatures with small arms climbing sneakers, licking their laces and trademarks.

"Granny Tang, see you next time!"

Hurriedly said goodbye and exited the room.

Yi Chen closed the door almost as soon as the red candle went out......

Bang Bang Bang! A fierce tongue whipping sound came from inside, and even more than a dozen tongues stuck out of the partition window on the door, sending an alternative invitation to Yi Chen.

At this moment, Granny Tang seemed to be a different person, as if whispering in his ear:

§Little brother, come in and play§

Yi Chen, who was born in an orphanage, was not frightened, but only bowed slightly towards the iron gate and turned to leave.

On his way back to the doctor's office, there were many imprisoned [weird] people on both sides of the passage who issued an 'invitation' to Yi Chen, a young man,

or stretch out your hands and feet,

or verbal mockery or demagoguery,

There are even people who spray liquids through the partitions on the doors,

But when they see what the youth are doing, they immediately withdraw the invitation.

Along

The young man inserted his index finger all the way into the bullet hole in his head, even turning it slightly.

Use your index finger to touch and poke the prefrontal area to improve your concentration and thinking skills, and comprehensively review and think about the conversation you just had, without caring about the harassment you encounter along the way.

When encountering a few excessive guys, Yi Chen would even throw away a terrifying dead man's look, as if he wanted to knock the other party to pieces.

Arriving at the office of the attending doctor, Lu Xin,

Yi Chen slowly pulled out the index finger between his brain, and then put the index finger into his mouth, sucked off the black liquid on it and wiped it clean with a tissue.

A simple touch-up covered the hole in his forehead, and after tidying up, he walked into the office with a smile.

After a brief exchange, Yi Chen, as a "lone wolf", received the first hunting mission.

An art school has recently had a large number of suicides, and the suicide rate on campus in the past month is more than 20 times the average suicide rate in the urban area.

A week ago, a team of temporary workers went to investigate, but the inquiry was fruitless, suspecting that a certain monster lurking in the school has extremely high anti-reconnaissance capabilities and will only attack a single individual.

This matter fell on the newly promoted regular employee, Yi Chen, who was just the age to disguise himself as a freshman.
