Chapter 6: Lost Time

But this also reminded Su Zhaoyue that if she entered the ghost domain of Qinwei Town, it meant that she would not be able to escape from her own ghost domain alone.

This makes the task of sending letters, which I thought I could get nine out of ten, confusing again.

Su Zhaoyue's face couldn't help but sink, according to this situation, she had to rely on the other six messengers to help her try and make mistakes in the mission if necessary, although they were all ordinary people.

With a decision, she went home.

Came to the point marked by Chen Feng on the map, which is a small farm yard where you can eat and live for money, and it is not far from Qinwei Town.

This time, she was the first to arrive.

Followed by Chen Feng and Chen Ying, two brothers and sisters, Chen Feng came up to say hello in surprise when he saw her.

"I didn't expect Miss Su to arrive so early."

Su Zhaoyue nodded in response.

Then Xu Li, Xu Haitao, Wang Xisheng, and Sun Qiyuan seemed to arrive at the same time.

It was already a little past six o'clock when everyone arrived, because it was almost winter, and it was already dark.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I think this red envelope mission must be extraordinary, but except for Miss Su, everyone has basically sent the letter twice, and they have also experienced direct contact with ghosts......

"So no matter what happens during the delivery process, I hope everyone must stay calm, the ghost post office can't give us an unfinished task, as long as we are united, we can always get through it."

Chen Feng boosted his morale at this time, and then said: "Also, I have something to share with everyone here. ”

After speaking, he took out dozens of pieces of yellow paper from the backpack behind him, and then distributed them to everyone one by one.

"It's a piece of stationery, and if you light it, you'll have your way back to the post office, which will allow us to get out of a crisis situation quickly and save our lives. This is the good stuff I got from the messenger on the third floor. ”

"Holy, really?" Wang Xisheng couldn't help but be surprised.

Chen Feng glanced at him, "The messengers on the third floor have all used it, so it must be no problem." But the usage is very particular, be sure to make a long strip shape that is more resistant to burning, and the road back to the post office will also exist a little longer, so that you have enough time to go back. ”

After listening to Chen Feng's words, everyone's original tension was dispelled a lot. Looking at the letter paper in his hand, I couldn't help but feel a little confident.

Su Zhaoyue rubbed the letter paper, she had a hunch that this thing might not be useful in Qinwei Town.

After all, when the ghost house was copied in the original novel, the road to the ghost post office formed by the burning of the letter paper was even directly cut off by the ghost, which shows that the letter paper is not so reliable in the terrifying supernatural events.

"Bring the supplies, let's go!" Chen Feng said.

……

It was completely dark, and the whole town seemed to be brightly lit, and from their vantage point, they could see the main street of the town.

People come and go, and there is a lot of traffic. It's like a festival, and it's very lively.

The scene was somewhat reassuring to the messengers. In the past, the places where the letters were delivered were either rumored to be haunted everywhere or were particularly eerie. There has never been an atmosphere so popular.

However, even if Su Zhaoyue didn't use the ghost domain, she noticed that something was wrong in some details.

For example, a rickshaw pulling people? There's no such thing in a modern town. There is also a sedan chair carried by four people, and the traditional Chinese characters on the shop sign......

She secretly observed everyone's expressions, and it seemed that Chen Feng had also noticed something wrong, and her face was not very good-looking.

But neither of them said it, Chen Feng was afraid of affecting morale, and Su Zhaoyue was simply too lazy to say, after all, most of this group of people were going to die.

"When we entered the town, we divided into groups and went to the town to inquire about this musician."

appeared, a classic split action in horror films.

Su Zhaoyue and Chen Feng and Chen Ying are two brothers and sisters.

Sun Qiyuan and Wang Xisheng are in a group.

Xu Li and Xu Haitao are in a group.

After dividing the group, everyone officially entered Qinwei Town.

The moment Su Zhaoyue stepped into Qinwei Town, the ghost wedding dress on her body suddenly moved, and she felt it keenly for the first time.

An inexplicable sound of sheng flute suddenly sounded in my ears, which sounded particularly poignant.

But Su Zhaoyue didn't know what this meant, so she didn't know if it was a good thing or a bad thing.

She just lowered her head and pondered, and when she looked up, she found that the figures of Chen Feng and the others had disappeared for some time.

In the lively market at night, their figures disappeared silently, as if swallowed by this town.

Su Zhaoyue's face sank completely.

Sure enough, something happened?

She had expected a lot of situations, but she hadn't expected them to happen.

But she was also prepared in advance, after all, she knew a lot about the methods of the ghost rider in the original novel.

Su Zhaoyue first closed her eyes, it was pitch black at first, and then a few clear red dots gradually appeared, and finally she opened her eyes again, and an inexplicable feeling suddenly appeared in her heart.

She was actually locating the ghost marks she had left on the other six messengers, who could be found no matter how far away she could be from them.

With the induction, she put her mind at ease, and in the induction, the six of them are still honestly alive now.

Su Zhaoyue walked down the street and began to carefully observe the crowd of people coming and going.

The most common are black and cyan tunics and cheongsams, followed by simple white coats and knee-length short black trousers, and a wide-sleeved robe that looks like a scholar.

The streets are mostly full of entertainers, who play and sing, and there is a circle of people watching the play around them. On the streets, there are many small stalls and vendors selling everything, and they are full of lively shouting.

At the same time, some people are watching her, after all, her body here can probably be classified as a fancy dress.

At that moment, it was like truly traveling to the Republic of China and experiencing a meeting that spanned a century.

She saw that these people had vivid expressions, rich expressions, and body temperature, which could be said to be no different from real people. But after all, it's just a derivative of the ghost domain, as long as the source ghost can be found, these are just mirages.

And the source ghost, I'm afraid it has something to do with the person to be sent this time.

"Who?!"

Su Zhaoyue looked up at the alley on the side, and she felt that there was an unusual pair of eyes staring at her with deep malice.

If ordinary people were to see these eyes, they would probably shiver all over their bodies, and even worse, they might faint with fright.

Because these eyes themselves have a little bit of a ghost.

Su Zhaoyue thought for a moment, then rushed into the alley.

As if noticing her movements, the owner of those eyes immediately ran backwards.

"Something, stop me!" Su Zhaoyue shouted.

After plunging headlong into the dark alley, she realized that the alley was so extensive, she had no idea where it would lead.

When Su Zhaoyue frowned and didn't know where to go, suddenly the sky swirled, and the whole world was shrouded in a faint yellow mist in an instant.

A light rain fell in the sky at dusk, and a mournful elegy sounded in the air, rendering the environment particularly sad and solemn.

Are there two kinds of supernatural?

Rain and singing.

No, there's also the ghost realm of yellow mist.

The ghost wedding dress on Su Zhaoyue's body had already emerged, and it only fluttered slightly to isolate the singing and rain.

She frowned deeply and looked at the seven figures that appeared in front of her at an unknown time.

Seven Ghost Riders?

They are all characters of the Republic of China.

Suddenly, an inspiration seemed to explode in her mind, Su Zhaoyue's eyes widened in disbelief, and her heart had already set off a turbulent wave.

Were they messengers during the Republican period? Is it the messenger who sent the same letter to the messenger back then and now? But how is this possible? Aren't the people and things in this area all conjured up from the ghost realm?

As if as she thought, the man in the lead of the seven said, "You are also a messenger?" ”

After a brief shock, Su Zhaoyue took out the red letter.

That's right, the letter in Chen Feng's hand had long been replaced by her, how could she give such an important thing to others with confidence.

"How do you know? And you greet people like this? Su Zhaoyue said as she looked at the rain falling from the sky.

Seeing her take out a red letter, the seven seemed to be very surprised.

"We don't know very well, but it seems that the letter on us sensed you, and we found you. Because you are also a ghost herdsman, I can only limit you for insurance, but it seems that you are not affected. ”

As he spoke, the man took out an identical red envelope. "My name is Qiao Yongzhen, nickname - Dusk Rain, I think we can get to know each other."

"My surname is Sue, and I am a messenger on the first floor of the post office." Su Zhaoyue said calmly.

But Qiao Yongfeng didn't seem to be in a hurry to answer, but instead set his eyes on one of his peers.

It was a woman, and she said with a slightly pale face, "It's true." ”

At this glance, you can see that she has the ability to judge the truth of people's words.

"It seems that you are the new messenger? What about your teammates? The Red Letter requires all the messengers on the first floor to act together. ”

Su Zhaoyue immediately realized the problem, she and this group of messengers obviously had an information gap.

Information gap is a terrible concept, from individual competition to national struggle.

For example, what does capital rely on to make profits? It depends on the information gap with the common people. If you don't know the cost, I can arbitrarily control the selling price to make huge profits, and the essence of activities like long-distance trafficking is the operation of information poorness.

Su Zhaoyue pondered for a moment and responded, "They have separated from me, and I plan to go to them." What about you? What floor are you the messenger on? Why did you come to Qinwei Town? ”

Qiao Yongfeng said without hesitation: "We are the messengers on the fifth floor, and this is our last mission, to suppress all the shepherds nicknamed musicians in Qinwei Town. ”

Su Zhaoyue immediately understood the idea, the messengers before the ghost post office was out of control were all going to various places to solve supernatural events, but since the owner of the ghost post office died, it has undergone abnormal changes, driving the messengers to go to various places to revive the powerful ghosts that were suppressed at the beginning to form new supernatural events.

And the letter in her hand is probably the one that can revive this terrible ghost nicknamed the musician.

After sorting out the logic, Su Zhaoyue began to secretly find ways to profit from it. Whether she can complete the task is secondary, and her biggest purpose is not to complete any mission to send a message, but to try to gain benefits in such a supernatural event and become stronger.

Exploring the mysterious revival of the Republic of China period is also a secondary matter.
