Chapter 7 Wei Jing
Northwest direction, in the middle of Longmen Town.
The originally prosperous town has become a bit dilapidated. The newly paved asphalt road is covered with a thick layer of yellow sand. The restaurants on the roadside are empty and the goods in the supermarket have been sold out.
Except for the occasional yellow sand blowing in the wind, there was no movement in the whole town, like an empty city.
In just a few days, the once prosperous town was abandoned.
In an empty indoor gymnasium in the town, more than forty people, old and young, gathered here. Wei Jing was sitting in a corner and resting. Several people in black uniforms were comforting the survivors here.
“Don't ask me again, I don't know!” Suddenly, a middle-aged man in the crowd who was being questioned shouted out of control. "It was the yellow sand that swallowed them up."
"It's all your fault. You concealed the truth. My wife...my son is dead. It's all your fault!"
The middle-aged man cried loudly as he spoke. He didn't say anything in his black uniform. He just turned around and left silently, asking the next person.
Most of the people in the gym were also moved by the middle-aged man's emotions, and for a while the whole gym could hear the sound of crying.
“Sir,” a man in black uniform came to Wei Jing to ask for instructions, “Should we continue to ask?”
"Don't ask for now," Wei Jing looked at the time and found that it was already past five o'clock. "Let's give them food. It's time to eat."
“By the way, sort out the inquiry information and give it to me.”
As the questioning ended and food was distributed, the mood of the crowd gradually calmed down and the gymnasium became quiet. However, after these two days, they could no longer live as normal as before.
Wei Jing ate the same bread and water as everyone else, and looked through the records of residents in Longmen Town who were attacked by evil spirits, trying to find the rules.
He had already read through the information compiled by Li Jun before his disappearance, which described in detail that most people fell and encountered supernatural attacks while escaping, while a small number were suddenly attacked by ghosts. People who suffered supernatural attacks would quickly turn into deserts. , turned into a pile of yellow sand and blended into this ghostland.
However, a resident who survived later said that he had also fallen and had not been attacked by supernatural beings. According to subsequent investigations, it was found that this kind of thing was not an isolated case.
Hence, it is not certain that falling down is a condition for Li Gui to kill someone.
Also, he discovered the supernatural source of yellow sand, which is located in the Friendship Park in the northwest corner of Longmen Town. However, it was completely covered with yellow sand. Wei Jing observed it from a distance once, and his intuition told him not to venture in.
But Li Jun, after rescuing most of the residents, rushed in and tried to solve the supernatural incident on his own, but failed and even lost the supernatural item, the will-o'-the-wisp lantern.
Wei Jing gets a headache just thinking about this. If he had the will-o'-the-wisp lantern, he could take all the remaining people in the gym out of the Yellow Sand Ghost Realm right now, without having to send them away once a day.
It's just that he is also an ordinary person!
Because he only controlled one evil ghost, the evil ghost in his body recovered very quickly.
The continuous use of the power of the ghost made Wei Jing unable to bear it, and the ghost in his body could no longer be suppressed.
"Li Jun can't be taken care of anymore," Wei Jing sensed his physical condition. He couldn't protect himself now. "Send these people out tomorrow, and I will return to the experimental base. Even if the evil ghost revives, they can't be outside."
Wei Jing knew how terrifying a ghost with a ghost realm was. If it revived outside, it would be an level incident at the very least, and he didn't know how many people would die.
Returning to the headquarters to undergo the experiment was his only option. Since he was about to die, he would give it a try and participate in the experiment of controlling the second ghost. Success was good, but failure would still be under the control of the headquarters.
After looking through the inquiry records, Wei Jing found no useful clues. People attacked by ghosts were so strange that he could not summarize the rules.
Unless you have direct contact with the ghosts in the yellow sand and feel their patterns, you can discover new clues.
It's just that he is about to revive as a ghost and has no chance to deal with this supernatural incident.
Fortunately, the killing patterns of Huangsha ghosts are not easy to touch. Until entering the Huangsha ghost domain, Wei Jing has not encountered a murderous ghost. This is why he gathered the survivors in the gym instead of sending them out of Huangsha immediately. The reason for the ghost realm.
"If only the professor were here, he would be able to find the murderous patterns of the ghosts from these records." Wei Jing thought.
Suddenly his satellite phone rang.
Wei Jing picked up the phone and found that the call was from the headquarters. Although he didn't know what it was about, he quickly picked up the call.
“Weijing, how's the situation over there?” was the voice of the Weijing operator.
“Everything is normal, the last group of survivors are in the gymnasium,” Wei Jing thought for a while, “Did the headquarters call us with any new information?”
"There is a new situation," Zhao Jianguo grabbed the call, "Professor Wang checked the relevant records. He feels that this supernatural incident is not simple and requires you to act with caution."
“Furthermore, the professor has a new invention that should be able to help you, but because it has not been tested, the detailed data is not clear. The information will be sent to your satellite phone, remember to check it.”
Hearing Zhao Jianguo's words, Wei Jing was very happy. At this time, he happened to have some questions.
“Is the professor here? I have something to ask him.”
“I'm here.” Wang Xiaoming's plain voice came from the microphone.
Hearing Wang Xiaoming's voice, Wei Jing felt at ease. As Wang Xiaoming's bodyguard, he believed in Wang Xiaoming's ability. In his opinion, Wang Xiaoming was the hope of completely solving the supernatural problem.
"Professor, I have collected many cases of people being attacked by Huangsha Ligui, but I can't analyze the killing patterns from them. I hope the professor can take a look and give some direction." Wei Jing said, while summarizing the information in his hand and his own guesses. Sent back to headquarters.
He was originally going to give up on imprisoning Huangsha Ligui, but he regained his fighting spirit.
After hanging up the communication, Wei Jing began to check the information sent from the headquarters. He was curious about what invention made Zhao Jianguo think it could help him.
With one glance and ten lines, Wei Jing quickly found the key point... Ghost exorcism ringtone?
Wei Jing continued to look at it in confusion. When he knew that he could defend himself against the attacks of evil spirits and had no side effects, he opened his mouth wide enough to stuff a duck egg size into it.
Professor Wang is indeed amazing!
He immediately downloaded the ghost-repelling ringtone transferred to the satellite phone and tried to view the detailed information. Strangely, he could see nothing, no size, no duration, only the name of the ghost-repelling ringtone.
On the other side, Wang Xiaoming received the messages from Wei Jing, printed them out and booked them one by one, found a quiet room and started checking them.
With his excellent memory and natural analytical ability, Wang Xiaoming quickly read through the key parts of the information.
Leaning on the sofa, Wang Xiaoming activated the ability to awaken his memory, and the information he had just seen appeared in front of his eyes one by one.
His brain seems to have evolved, arranging all the information one by one and extracting the words that appear most often...
Falling, collision, squinting, injury, bruise, eating sand...
Wang Xiaoming immediately discovered the problem. Most people were injured and attacked by evil spirits. Although some people were fine after experiencing the same thing, there must be differences.
Unlike Wei Jing, after Wang Xiaoming made a judgment, he quickly began to dig deeper into his own reasoning without being disturbed by other information at all.
“Human beings generally feel pain and scream after being injured. When the pain reaches a certain level, they will also feel sad, cry, and fear.”
“The degree of injury also varies. I don't know the specific classification, but it can be simply classified into bruises, bleeding, fractures, and internal bleeding.”
Wang Xiaoming quickly discovered the Chinese point.
“Is it because the degree of injury is different?”
Wang Xiaoming remembers that the number of deaths in the supernatural incident in Longmen Town was not high, which shows that it is not easy to comply with the killing rules of ghosts. Making sounds, fear, tears, etc. should not be conditions for ghosts to kill.
Thinking of this,
Wang Xiaoming returned to the operator's office and connected the phone to Wei Jing again.
Jingle Bell…
The shrill bell rang in the stadium, but no one picked up.
The gymnasium that was originally home to dozens of people turned out to be unusually quiet, with everyone cowering on one side of the gymnasium.
A faint black mist drifted over from the other side. Everyone just covered their mouths and noses and did not dare to speak. Even a few people in black uniforms did the same. Even if they heard the ringing of their mobile phones, they did not dare to approach the mist.
He could only look into the depths of the fog with an ugly expression. That was where Wei Jing rested. It was fine at first, but suddenly black mist spread out from there.
At this time, several people in black uniforms thought they were going to die. The commander was obviously about to revive. They all vaguely saw a small road winding through the mist.
Suddenly, the phone stopped ringing, the black fog began to dissipate, and the path that just appeared seemed like an illusion.
“I'm sorry, something unexpected happened just now.” Wei Jing's slightly trembling voice came from the distance.
When everyone heard Wei Jing's voice, they were relieved. Several people in black uniforms came forward to check, "Sir, are you okay?"
“Don't worry, I can still hold on.” Wei Jing, who had just gained control of his body, was sweating profusely. The closer he was to the supernatural resurgence, the more powerless the ghost controller became in the face of the supernatural.
Seeing that Wei Jing had indeed recovered, everyone in black uniforms breathed a sigh of relief and returned to the crowd to comfort others.
Wiping the sweat off his forehead, Wei Jing dialed the headquarters number.
"Wei Jing, are you okay? Why didn't you answer the phone just now? Did something happen?" As soon as the call was connected, the operator asked a series of questions.
"It's okay, it's just that there was a supernatural out-of-control situation just now, and I solved it." Wei Jing pretended to be relaxed, but only he knew how dangerous it was just now. It seemed that even without this mission, he wouldn't be able to hold on for much longer.
“Can you still persist? Do I need you to come back?”
“It's okay, I'm familiar with my body.”
“If there is anything, you must report it.” The operator said with concern.
"Okay," Wei Jing asked, "Is it Professor Wang who is looking for me?"
“It's me,” Wang Xiaoming took the communication. He didn't talk nonsense. “Based on the information you provided, I think the killing rules this time may be related to injuries.”
Wei Jing listened to the voice on the phone and nodded: "Actually, my initial judgment was that they were injured, but some people were clearly not injured, but they were also attacked and killed by evil spirits."
"I have an idea about these people, but I need you to first determine the location and extent of those who were injured but not killed by the ghosts."
"Okay, I'll do it right away." Wei Jing immediately called a man in black uniform and asked him to collect the information.
This time Wang Xiaoming did not leave, but waited for Wei Jing's message. It didn't take long for Wei Jing's message to come over.
