Chapter 296: The Widow of the Ghost Master
Lin Zhi blinked slowly, wondering when he was pulled into the hallucination again.
The dead body will not be resurrected. No matter how powerful the means are, the dead and the living will always be different.
Limbs that have lost their ability to breathe become empty without the filling of flesh and blood, and naturally no physiological instincts will exist. This is an irreversible law of nature.
"Since it's an illusion, let's make it more complete."
Lin Zhi put down the towel in his hand, and his voice was flat.
Although his ability to accept things is far beyond that of ordinary people, his sexual preferences are actually not too advanced.
He was neither a disabled person nor an ice lover, and had no interest in the current situation.
If he had to perform life-like movements with only the stump of the torso, he would rather choose to move with only the parts, at least it would be better from a visual perspective.
Maybe, probably...it doesn't seem to be much better.
The hot water for soaking was cooling down at an unusual speed. Water vapor climbed up every corner of the bathroom, making the air cold and damp.
Under Lin Zhi's gaze, the torso in front of him sank to the bottom of the bathtub again, and the originally clear water turned into a sea of fog, filled with invisible mysteries.
With a loud bang, the light bulb in the bathroom, which had just been repaired, broke again.
A faint sigh came from beside me, accompanied by an explanation.
"That's what happens when the magnetic field is unstable."
Lian Qing's voice was a little cold, matching his appearance.
"...Did I scare you just now? I'm sorry, I just like you too much. When you touch me, I can't control myself."
Lian Qing's current power is still not very stable. He just unconsciously pulled Lin Zhi into the energy field, exposing his true nature.
The ghostly voice murmured, and the vague human figure stuck to the young man's back, speaking words of love.
Lin Zhi understood. As her limbs became more intact, her mind also became more complete. At least now she would not do something like putting a severed finger into his water cup.
But he still hadn't fully remembered it and was immersed in the role-playing of "husband".
"It's okay," Lin Zhi responded with a chuckle, repeating, "It's okay."
He was not frightened. He really liked his lover's persistent, passionate and even perverted love for him. It was so interesting.
The feeling of cold, wet clothes sticking to the skin was not pleasant, so Lin Zhi got up and walked out of the bathtub.
The clothes absorbed water and became heavy. Lin Zhi had no intention of returning to the bedroom with water stains all over the floor. He simply took off his clothes in the bathroom and walked towards the living room.
The curtains in the living room were already closed, so there was no need to worry about being peeped by outsiders.
Lin Zhi went to the living room and pressed the switch twice, and found that the broken light was not just in the bathroom, but almost all the lights in the whole house were affected.
In the room where not even moonlight can penetrate, the only light is the candlelight in front of the altar.
The light from the incense and candles reflected the tablet and portrait of her late husband, and also illuminated the slightly distorted shadow at Lin Zhi's feet.
The coolness climbed from the spine to the tailbone and lingered at the waistline.
The palm without the temperature of flesh and blood slowly invaded downwards like some kind of snake.
The tip of the tongue hooked around, as if fiddling with soft ice.
"Weaving."
The evil spirit pronounced the title awkwardly but quickly and fluently, as if it was the first time he pronounced it but also as if he had said it a thousand times.
He stretched out his hands and circled Lin Zhi. Under the flickering candlelight, Lin Zhi's shadow seemed to be bound by an invisible force, and the ghost's greed and possessiveness could be seen from it.
There is a dressing mirror at the entrance, just opposite the altar, which can reflect the image clearly.
Even if the light is too dim, it still reflects the scenes of the world.
Compared to an adult, his body is a little thin, but not shriveled. His taut waist and abdomen seem to have gathered excess fat, which is as soft as snow.
Mirrors are industrially manufactured products. Like most of their counterparts in the world, they do not have any spiritual powers and do not have self-awareness, so they naturally cannot reflect ghost images.
It could only reflect the narrow cavity that seemed to be broken and closed by something, like a flower wet in the rain.
Her slender fingertips grasped the edge of the altar in vain, enduring the demands of her late husband.
It was too late at night, and artificial lights could not replace the blazing sun energy, giving the ghosts some breathing room.
The newly dead ghosts subconsciously avoid wandering around a certain area, but the trapped earthbound spirits are miserable and can only hide carefully to avoid being swallowed by the terrifying big ghost.
The aura wasn't so terrifying before, and I don't know what kind of offering it received.
If Lian Qing could know what was in his heart, he would definitely respond.
Offering, yes, it is offering.
The tablet carved by the lover himself, the burning incense and candles, and the delicious and fragrant body of the lover.
It was not until dawn that the insatiable ghost stopped and ended its enjoyment with satisfaction.
The young man was sleeping very soundly. The vague ghost shadow stayed beside the bed for a long time. It did not disappear with the dawn, but as if it was still alive, it lifted the quilt from the other side of the bed and slept with the young man.
The next day, Lin Zhi was awakened by a ringing phone.
The heavy curtains blocked out the light from outside, making it difficult for him to tell what time it was.
However, judging from Xu Xiaoyu's words on the other end of the phone, which expressed slight surprise that he had not yet woken up, it should be getting late.
Lin Zhi looked at the time on his phone. It was seven o'clock in the afternoon, which was indeed very late.
"Are you talking about the matter of Meiling Village?"
"That's right, pack your luggage and meet at the cat cafe later. Do you have a cold? Why don't you come to my place and take two capsules later."
Xu Xiaoyu heard Lin Zhi's heavy nasal tone and made a suggestion.
"OK, thanks."
Lin Zhi did not refuse and agreed to all the requests.
Xu Xiaoyu’s capsules were certainly not ordinary capsules. The last time she fed someone a capsule, it contained Fu Hui.
Lin Zhi stretched, rubbed his sore body, and got up to wash.
There was no time to ask someone to fix the light, so Lin Zhi used the power supply of her cell phone to go into the bathroom.
This light source made his face look even paler and more ghostly.
My health has deteriorated again, but fortunately this problem should be resolved soon. I hope that method works.
Lin Zhi had no objection to fake pregnancy. After all, she had experienced it once before in the world where she became a fox demon.
As long as it is not a real child, he can accept it. For him, having a child is not just a matter of identity change and self-gender recognition, but he does not welcome the arrival of the child.
He knew that he did not have a healthy family education atmosphere and that he was not a sound person. From the moment he knew that he liked men, he had not thought about the issue of offspring.
Lin Zhi didn't plan to store the container for a long time. According to Lian Qing's notes, the container could only last for ten months at most, and he would not stay here that long.
At present, the important head and torso have been found, which took less than a week. It is only a matter of time before the remaining limbs are found.
After washing up, Lin Zhi put on her backpack filled with her belongings and went out with her car keys.
He first found a porridge shop to fill his stomach, and then drove to the cat cafe.
After finding a parking space, he pushed open the door with his bag on his back.
Shuang Ling sat at the bar, with the black cat lying beside his hand.
The scene was almost the same as when they first met. Shuang Ling raised his head and waved to Lin Zhi.
"Brother Lin, I heard that you and Sister Yu went on a secret mission this time. Have a safe trip."
Shuang Ling is a person who is curious about the world, but she knows what she should be curious about and what she shouldn't be curious about. As a public official, she certainly won't think too much about secret missions.
Lin Zhi curved her lips and said, "I'll borrow your good words."
As he approached, the black cat became visibly tense.
"Uncle San, it's okay, come and eat."
Shuangling held the cat in her arms, stroked its fur, and coaxed it with a smile.
Xu Xiaoyu came down from the second floor. When her eyes fell on Lin Zhi, she paused. She bit a cigarette and wanted to light it, but in the end she didn't press the lighter.
She put the cigarette into the cigarette box, took out a medicine box from another pocket, and poured two pills for Lin Zhi.
"You may feel a little uncomfortable when you eat, but you will feel better after half an hour."
"Thanks."
Lin Zhi took it and drank it with water.
He must at least make sure that his body can hold on before arriving at Meiling Village. This capsule will only dispel the negative energy in his body and will not pose a threat to the ghosts around him.
Xu Xiaoyu looked at his black forehead and said through gritted teeth, "What is this?"
If it was an ordinary ghost, she would ensure the safety of the citizens even at the cost of her life, but this was Lian Qing, her most valued partner and best boss. Facing the willing Lin Zhi, what should she do?
Gu Xing told her not to meddle in other people's business, but she couldn't just watch someone die.
So on the way to the deep mountains and forests, she couldn't help but give a reminder.
"Find a free time and return his body to the Ministry. Your health will deteriorate if you stay with him all the time."
As soon as Xu Xiaoyu finished speaking, she felt a flash in front of her eyes and subconsciously stepped on the brakes.
The car seemed to have hit something, and Xu Xiaoyu frowned and got out to check.
There is nothing, empty.
Xu Xiaoyu returned to the car, lit a cigarette with slightly trembling fingers, and then slammed the steering wheel hard.
"You are really crazy. I just said one word and you warned me like this?"
It was difficult for Xu Xiaoyu to accept this fact. The more glorious the image of Lian Qing was in her mind, the more difficult it was for her to accept this contrast.
How could Lian Qing become a ghost that harms people, and the person he harms is the one he loves the most?
Xu Xiaoyu looked at Lin Zhi in the back seat and said, "One day he will kill you, you know that, right?"
The way a ghost loves people is to die with them.
It's not a deep hatred, so they won't take bloody revenge in extreme ways.
They will just cling to each other madly, like a shadow, and watch them be surrounded by negative energy and plagued by disease, and then stay together forever.
Lin Zhi was not panicked. His soft eyes that were naturally smiling remained calm. He leaned back in his chair in a very relaxed posture.
"I know you mean well, but don't worry."
"It may sound a bit arrogant to say this, but before I met him, my desires were basically satisfied, and the boundary between life and death was very blurred for me."
"He is not the reason for my life, but after meeting him, I do feel that life has more meaning."
"So, that's good."
The young man smiled warmly, and Xu Xiaoyu understood that he was subtly reminding her not to interfere.
Xu Xiaoyu took a deep puff of cigarette and started the car silently.
Before driving, she couldn't help but look through the rearview mirror at the young man sitting quietly in the back seat.
His eyes were smiling, but the aura emanating from him was like a dark abyss.
For a moment, Xu Xiaoyu couldn't tell who was devouring whom between him and Lian Qing.
Or perhaps, they have already been tightly entangled and inseparable.
