Before his near-death, Chi Shen entered an infinite game. He vanquished tens of thousands of malevolent spirits, dodged covert and overt attacks from countless players, and finally emerged victorio...
It's another weekend.
Chi Shen went to the flower market in the morning and bought a bunch of chrysanthemums that were in full bloom. He is now planting them on the terrace.
The lounge chairs and parasols on the terrace have been arranged. The sunshine is good today. He lay on the lounge chair for a few minutes in the morning, looking at the bare surroundings, always feeling that something is missing.
Noticing the imperfections of his terrace, he immediately got up from his lounge chair and went to improve his terrace.
Although the late autumn sun was not scorching, Chi Shen still opened the parasol. Several ghosts occupied the seats under the parasol. The female ghost in red was the first to run to the lounge chair and take up a seat. Everyone came to watch Chi Shen planting flowers.
The depth of the pool feels a bit stressful.
"You can't plant it like this!" Ghost Face commanded under the parasol, "You can only plant one tree in one pot!"
Bai Wan also held a tablet computer and looked at the flower-planting tutorial on it and told Chi Shen: "It's best to cut the flowers, otherwise they will die easily after transplanting."
Even Ji Xingchen pushed up his glasses behind Chi Shen and said, "I have planted cacti before. You can't plant them like this. The flowers will be drowned."
Chi Shen held a shovel in his hand and turned his head with a smile: "How about you guys come?"
Ghost Face immediately looked at the top of the parasol: "It's a nice day today..."
Bai Wan: "The chrysanthemums nowadays are so beautiful. I have never seen such beautiful chrysanthemums..."
Ji Xingchen pushed his glasses up firmly and said, "You have to do your own thing."
Chi Shen glanced at Ji Xingchen. He was the only one who was different. Why did he think he was special to him? This was too arrogant. Ji Xingchen had to be punished!
Holding a small shovel in his hand, Chi Shen took a step towards Ji Xingchen.
Ji Xingchen looked a little confused, but he didn't move.
Chi Shen reached out and took off Ji Xingchen's glasses.
Obviously, he did not expect Chi Shen to do this. Ji Xingchen only reacted after his glasses were taken away. He wanted to protect his glasses, but it was too late when he reached out his hand now.
After taking off Ji Xingchen's glasses, Chi Shen looked into Ji Xingchen's eyes. His gentle and affectionate eyes seemed to be able to see through his soul.
The next second, Ji Xingchen disappeared from the spot and entered Chi Shen’s shadow.
Chi Shen shook his head and put Ji Xingchen's glasses on his face, but that was not good enough. He just looked at each other and ran away. He was too shy. It was a pity that he was a ghost and his face was always bluish-white. Otherwise, you should be able to see his face flushed, right?
Without anyone to direct him, Chi Shen happily planted a row of blooming chrysanthemums according to his own wishes. Seeing that it was getting late, he happily went to have lunch and then went out.
In his hand, he held a ginkgo leaf, which had been dried and wrapped in glue to make it into the shape of a pendant.
Soon, he rode a shared bicycle to the residential area where Du Jun's female classmate lived. Du Jun had told him that they would have a half-day holiday every month in their senior year, and the female classmate should be back home at noon today. Chi Shen could wait for her at the gate of the residential area.
Chi Shen waited at the gate of the community for a while, and sure enough, he saw a girl walking towards the gate with a bag on her back. That was the female classmate that Du Jun had been thinking about.
"Hello, are you Yu Qianqian?" Chi Shen walked forward.
The female classmate lowered her head as if thinking about something. Someone stopped her and she was startled. She looked up and saw Chi Shen. Perhaps she felt that he was not a bad person, so she calmed down and asked, "What's wrong?"
Chi Shen smiled and took out the ginkgo leaf pendant: "Du Jun asked me to make this little thing for you before. He said he wanted to give it to you. He wrote your address and asked me to mail it to you, but he never paid me, so I didn't send it. Now I know he can't come to pick it up. I want you to know his intentions, so I sent it to you."
Yu Qianqian looked at the ginkgo leaf pendant. She seemed a little unconvinced. She looked up at Chi Shen with tears in her eyes.
"He said that he wants to go to the same university as you." The pendant in Chi Shen's hand was golden and transparent in the sun. He said slowly, "Now let this pendant accompany you."
Yu Qianqian took the pendant, lowered her head to touch her wallet and said, "How much is it? I'll pay you."
"No need," Chi Shen smiled and shook his head, then turned and left, "It's enough as long as the thought is conveyed."
"No, wait!" Yu Qianqian raised her head, but found that there was no one in front of her. She looked around and waited at the gate of the community for a while. She left only when her mother called her.
Chi Shen was already on his way to the flower market again. He found that planting flowers was addictive. After planting a row, he found that the other side was empty. He would feel uncomfortable if he didn't buy some flowers to fill the gap.
"Do you think she will keep it well?" Chi Shen asked Ji Xingchen as he walked towards the flower market.
Ji Xingchen said coldly: "There is still a long life ahead."
Chi Shen laughed.
After planting flowers again, it was already dark. Chi Shen received a call from Yuan Yiping, who came to pick him up.
The haunted construction site case in the northern district of Gangcheng has been closed, and the mastermind received a prison package, so the Special Security Bureau began to arrange the salvation of the headless ghost. Taking into account the schedule of all parties, the salvation was scheduled for today. In order to facilitate the action of the headless ghost, they chose the time in the evening.
Chi Shen took Ji Xingchen and Gui Lian downstairs. It goes without saying that he took Ji Xingchen with him, but he also took Gui Lian with him mainly because the main fighting power he showed at Bai Hengqing's house that day was Gui Lian. In order to make it look good, he had to take Gui Lian with him when he went out.
Yuan Yiping was waiting for him at the gate of the community. There were already two people in the car, Li Xu and Xu Jiayuan. Huang Lingling and the woman in the floral skirt also appeared in the car, but Li Xu obviously couldn't see them. Li Xu was looking at the blood-stained axe in the car with excitement and anticipation.
Chi Shen had explained to Yuan Yiping and the others the situation with Huang Lingling and the girl in the floral skirt. He had also persuaded the other ghosts in Li Xu to leave long ago, so it looked like Li Xu had only taken two ghosts out.
Yuan Yiping drove them to the scene of the serial murders in Gangcheng in the suburbs. He drove to protect Chi Shen and Li Xu. In his opinion, both Chi Shen and Li Xu needed protection.
Yuan Yiping had just been to the crime scene not long ago. After Chi Shen got in the car, he skillfully opened the navigation and entered the address.
This time, before Chi Shen spoke, Xu Jiayuan started the conversation: "Brother Li, I heard that you are a game developer, and the prototype of your game is the Hong Kong Lotus Murder Case. Do you want to meet the prototype of the murder case?"
Li Xu's eyes widened immediately: "Yes! Of course! I want to interview them and ask them what they think of my game!"
Yuan Yiping stopped him: "Don't..."
But it was too late. Xu Jiayuan had already taken out an eye-opening talisman and turned around to stick it on Li Xu's forehead.
Li Xu felt his eyes getting hot and suddenly found that there were two more people around him.
A little girl sat on his left, her legs dangling on the seat, her head propped up and looking at him curiously.
And there was a skinny and shriveled woman...she was hugging his neck, with her long dry hair hanging on his chest.
"ah--"
Yuan Yiping said helplessly: "I already said goodbye."
——
The place where the Hong Kong City serial murders took place.
A woman in luxurious clothes drove an SUV and stopped on the side of the road. She got out of the car wearing high heels, opened the trunk, and dragged out two large black bags. The black bags fell heavily on the side of the road and were cracked open. Immediately, a strong fishy smell came out of the bags.
The woman didn't care. She carried the bag and walked towards a dilapidated house. Bloody liquid flowed out from the hole in the bag and dripped onto the ground.
The high heels sank into the soft mud, leaving holes. The red liquid then flowed into the holes, forming bloody puddles.
The woman carried two black plastic bags into the dilapidated house and called out softly, "My dear, it's time to eat."
Her voice was trembling a little, but she tried to appear calm.
In the dark house, Bai Ran, covered in blood, came out of a door. He covered his neck, where blood was gushing out. It was the blood flowing from there that dyed his entire body red. That was the hole he poked when he committed suicide with a toothbrush.
He looked very uncomfortable. The unstoppable blood flow made him very irritated. When he saw the black bag, his nose twitched, and then he said with disgust: "Another animal organ?"
Xu Xiuyun looked at his appearance and took a step back: "Then... those resources are controlled by your father, I can't get them, I brought you some other things."
As she spoke, Xu Xiuyun took out some funeral items from her bag. They were covered with yin energy and she placed them carefully on the ground.
Bai Ran was still disgusted. He took the bloody animal organs and took a bite, angrily saying: "There is no evil god here, they are all fake!"
A wooden statue of the God of Wealth was thrown to the ground, and the Ruyi on the statue had been broken.
"Ranran, don't worry. We will have snacks delivered to your door tonight." Xu Xiuyun comforted him.
Bai Ran licked his bloodstained lips, his eyes had also turned red, he looked at Xu Xiuyun and smiled: "Yes, new snacks, not these rubbish."
Seeing the look in Bai Ran's eyes, Xu Xiuyun instinctively wanted to take a step back, but she held on and forced a smile at Bai Ran: "Ran Ran, take good care of yourself. After tonight, I will take you to the nearby village. When you grow up, you will be your most powerful baby. No one can replace you."
