Located on Hankou Road, the headquarters of Jiangdong University is a garden-style school with both solemnity, elegance and interest, which began at the end of the 19th century and has gone through more than 100 years of wind and rain, and is still standing today. The architectural style in the garden www.biquge.info the pen "Fun" Pavilion is changeable, and if you are not too troublesome, you can collect and list it on paper, which is an excellent reference for understanding the evolution of modern Chinese architectural forms.

On the left side of the North Campus adjacent to Building No. 5, there is a lush forest facing the direction of the library. There is grass under the forest, and there are several paths paved with pebbles, and people walk on them. There are also benches carved out of stone for students to sit on.

Ye Wenshu was barefoot, and with the support of his sister Ye Wenxiu, he stepped on the cobblestone path, going back and forth one after another. Not long after lunch, the brother and sister came here early to help Ye Wenshu with physiotherapy.

"Ahh Ye Wenxiu was startled, glanced at his brother, and became curious, and the two walked together to follow the place where the sound came from.

In just a few minutes, they came to the middle of a row of tall birch trees, and at first sight they saw a girl in a light blue denim skirt sitting on the ground, her eyes were blank, her expression was dull, and her mouth was open, as if she had seen something unusually terrifying.

Ye Wenxiu subconsciously looked around, and didn't find anything abnormal, she walked up to the girl and asked with concern: "Classmate, are you okay?" but didn't get any response.

"Classmate, classmate?" Ye Wenxiu called out twice, but still didn't hear an answer, she glanced at her brother, Ye Wenshu nodded, so she squatted down to investigate, and found that the girl always maintained her original frightened expression, like a puppet mud tire. No matter how much they shouted and pushed, they never got a little response.

Although it was sunny daylight, Ye Wenxiu felt a chill down her spine, and inexplicable fear arose in her heart, even she didn't know what she was afraid of.

"What the hell," in the office on the third floor of the Affiliated Hospital of Jiangda Medical College, Fan Changsheng, a doctor in the emergency room, looked at the physical examination report in front of him, and the more he thought about it, the more strange he felt: "This is already the sixth case." ”

"Yes," Fan Changsheng's colleague Yu Zhongshu of the Department of Brain Surgery said without raising his head while writing the medical record: "Since half a month ago, almost every three days, a female student suddenly fell into a coma, and the physical examination showed that the physiological indicators were normal, but she was unconscious, as if she had become a vegetative person. ”

"It's really-" Fan Changsheng wanted to be rude, and the swear words came to his mouth and swallowed back, but he said angrily: "I also plan to take an annual leave at the end of this week and accompany my son to Disney, it seems that I will be in the soup again." ”

"Don't complain," Yu Zhongshu said calmly: "I still have to do what needs to be done, I have contacted the Municipal Office for Disease Control and Prevention, and I am ready to do further expert consultation on these cases to see if they are some new infectious diseases." ”

——————

"It's definitely not an infectious disease," Fan Changsheng and Yu Zhongshu were discussing the case, and in the corner of Jiangda North Park, several students were discussing in a whisper, and one of the boys with clear eyebrows lifted the black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose and said in a determined tone.

Although the school's management tried their best to hide it, the news that several girls were contacted and suddenly fell unconscious still spread around the campus, causing a lot of panic.

"How do you know?" asked a girl in a floral dress with a few inconspicuous freckles on her face, "Do you know anything inside?" ”

"Yes, Zhao Shuchen, what do you know, tell us quickly. Others chimed in.

The boy named Zhao Shuchen had a slight smug on his face, as if he was enjoying the feeling of being surrounded, he cleared his throat and said mysteriously: "Didn't you notice that these girls who had an accident all live in the same dormitory?"

"So what?" said the floral skirt disappreciatively, "Because we live together, it's easier to be contagious!"

"But," Zhao Shuchen lowered his voice: "That's the seventeenth building of South Park!"

Hearing the very ordinary five words "Seventeen Buildings in South Park", everyone's expressions changed inexplicably, as if they had thought of something terrible, and their faces became ugly.

In a café called "afterfive" at the back entrance of the school, melodious soft music echoed throughout the audience. Most of the customers here are students of Jiang University, and it is still class time, so there are relatively few people, and only in the evening will there be more customers.

The moment Gao Yongxia and Qiu Tingting entered the door, they attracted the attention of many customers in the café. One by one, the boys pretended to be indifferent, and secretly peeked out of the corner of their eyes.

The winner of the first-class scholarship for three consecutive years, the main person in charge of the well-known student club Qunying Club, and the popular candidate for the president of the school's student union, one after another highlighted titles, make Gao Yongxia, who already has an outstanding appearance, even more dazzling, no matter where he is, he is as bright and eye-catching as the sun.

There are not a few people of the opposite sex who are interested in her in school, but she doesn't pretend to anyone, and there are really a lot of men who are deflated because of their hospitality, and gradually this kind of situation of only daring to look far away has gradually formed.

"Here!" Cui Peng waved at the two from afar, leading them into the box inside. Qiu Zhe was blowing on a cup of coffee, this kind of Western thing, he really couldn't play with it.

Four people sit down facing each other, and the waiter serves the menu. Gao Yongxia ordered two cups of coffee for himself and Qiu Tingting, passed the menu to Cui Peng, who added a few snacks and waved his hand to send the waiter away.

"I've talked to Tingting about you. Gao Yongxia got straight to the point and directly explained his intentions: "I am looking for you today, I want to ask Qiu Zhe for help." ”

Cui Peng seemed to have expected it, and there was no expression of surprise at all: "Are you doing it for Lin Meiqi?"

Lin Meiqi is Gao Yongxia and Qiu Tingting's roommate, I don't know if it's a coincidence, the four girls in Gao Yongxia's dormitory are all locals, and they have a very good relationship with each other, like sisters.

Half a month ago, Lin Meiqi and Qiu Tingting made an appointment to go to the mall together. As a result, Qiu Tingting waited for no one to come at the agreed place for a long time, called Lin's house, and was told that the other party had gone out early, only then did she realize that something was wrong.

By the time they found Maggie Lin, the little girl was already lying in the hospital ward. According to the description of the passer-by who brought her to the hospital, when she was exercising in Huxin Park, she accidentally found Lin Meiqi lying on the ground. At that time, her face was very ugly, and she seemed to be frightened.

The doctor did a comprehensive examination of Lin Meiqi and did not find any abnormalities in the physiological index. But after all kinds of methods, I just can't wake up. The patient seems to be asleep all the time, but this sleeping method is unreasonable for anyone with a little common sense.

Gao Yongxia didn't pay much attention to this matter, in her opinion, since the physiological index was normal, it would always wake up, and it couldn't be the difference between earlier and later. The atheist education she has received for a long time has made Gao Yongxia form a strong thinking inertia, so that she does not associate this matter with other aspects at all.

However, the evolution of things was unexpected, and after half a month's work, five more girls in the school had the same situation one after another, all of whom were inexplicably unconscious, and no one knew about it since then. The hospital examination did not find any valuable information except that one of the girls had gastroenteritis and the other had just cut her double eyelids.

Rumors slowly brewed along with various gossip, and although the school tried its best to refute the rumors, it could not stop people's curiosity and fear of the unknown.

It was only at this time that Gao Yongxia finally realized that something seemed wrong. Thinking of what she saw that night, she did not hesitate and immediately came to the two for help.

"Do you know anything?" Hearing Cui Peng's rhetorical question, Gao Yongxia's heart was relieved, and he felt that he should have found the right person.

"Xiaoqiu has been to see a patient," Cui Peng said, "let him tell you." ”

Qiu Tingting stared at Qiu Zhe with big flickering eyes, staring at Qiu Zhe like a curious baby, after listening to Gao Yongxia's introduction, this nervous girl did not have any discomfort and rejection, accepted the relevant setting without hesitation, and urged her best friend with great interest to quickly take her to meet the legendary cultivator.

Perhaps, in this girl's heart, the so-called "cultivators" are no different from the star idols she sees on the screen, they are all conceptual characters, and it is rare to see them alive.

"Cui Peng and I went to visit Lin Meiqi in the name of classmates," Qiu Zhe said in a deep voice, not caring at all about Qiu Tingting's burning eyes: "There is nothing wrong with her physical body, but the three souls are gone." ”

"What do you mean it's gone?"

"It's just gone," Qiu Zhe said: "What is lying in the hospital now is just a shell, and the sea of knowledge is empty." But that's what makes me weird. We all know that people have three souls and seven spirits, the soul is the spirit, and the soul is the body. The three souls are easy to keep from the body, but the seven spirits are easy to get lost. Lin Meiqi's situation is just reversed. ”

"Wait a minute," Gao Yongxia interjected, "I don't know if you can explain the professional knowledge you mentioned a little more clearly." ”

"Uh, okay," Qiu Zhe then remembered, the two girls in front of him were complete laymen, so he had to patiently explain: "The so-called three souls refer to the fetal light, cool spirits and ghost spirits, while the seven spirits are corpse dogs, Fu Ya, Sparrow Yin, Swallowing Thieves, Non-poisonous, Removing Filth and Stinky Lungs. The three souls are in charge of a person's memory, thoughts, and emotions, that is, the spirit, while the seven spirits are in charge of a person's physical functions. After the death of the soul of the soul scattered, this is actually exquisite, the soul flies for the ghost, the spirit is dispersed that disappears, if the soul is still after the death of the person, it will form a zombie. ”

"Then what are you talking about?"

"Zhihai, also known as the Purple Mansion in Taoism, is a collection of all the information in the human brain, and in layman's terms, it refers to the spiritual world of people. ”

"Oooh. Qiu Tingting nodded again and again, her eyes shining with a strange brilliance.

"What happened to Kiki?" Gao Yongxia asked.

"I'm not sure for the time being, but I guess it was forcibly sucked away by some kind of evil spell. But man is the spirit of all things, and although this evil spell can suck souls, it can't take away that bit of innate spirituality. It is this spirituality that has saved their lives and led to the strange situation they are in now. ”

"Is that still saved?" A smart person is a smart person, and from Qiu Zhe's words, Gao Yongxia grasped the point in an instant.

"It's too early to say whether there is salvation or not," Qiu Zhe said: "If you can't get back the three souls as soon as possible, even if Lin Meiqi doesn't die, I'm afraid she will become a zombie." ”

"Then what should we do?" Qiu Tingting was a little anxious.

"We have a plan, but we need your help. Cui Peng took over the topic: "Gao Yongxia, do you remember, I mentioned to you, there is a ghost in your seventeen buildings? We suspect that this incident is related to that ghost." As far as I know, the six girls who have been involved in the accident are all living in Building 17. ”

"What?" Qiu Tingting's face changed slightly: "Is that rumor true?

"It's not that serious," Qiu Zhe comforted: "People are three points afraid of ghosts, and ghosts are seven points afraid of people, and there is some truth in this saying. Ghosts are pure yin, and they are most afraid of the yang energy of the human body. Therefore, where there are many people, ghosts are generally not accommodated. There are so many people in the student dormitory, even if the ghost thing exists, it must be hiding in a dark corner where no one is around, and only at night when everyone is asleep, dare to come out to move. ”

"Hearing you say that, I don't think I'm even more mad. Qiu Tingting glanced at him faintly, feeling that this guy was really not comforting.

"What are you going to do?" Gao Yongxia said in a deep voice.

"We want to go in and have a look," Cui Peng said, "but the seventeen buildings are so big, we have never been in them, and we don't know anything about the situation inside, so we need someone to guide them." ”

"We can help," Gao Yongxia agreed: "But you have to promise me that as long as there is the slightest possibility, you will find a way to save Qiqi and their lives." ”

"I'll do my best," Qiu Zhe said, "By the way, what is that rumor you are talking about?"
