Lin Fan talked with Yi Qiqi and only then did he learn the whole story.
First of all, as a newbie at the beginning, the main reason why I was able to hold on and not be scared when I saw the weirdness was that the ghost knocking on the door did not look scary and its body remained relatively intact.
She finally mustered up the courage to talk to him, and used her Underworld Card to withdraw three thousand Underworld Banknotes to send him away.
Later, she found something wrong in her neighbor's house, so she rushed in again. As a result, she saw the bodies of the neighbor couple lying in a pool of blood, with their internal organs hollowed out and their flesh eaten. They looked horrible.
Just this scene completely scared her.
After all, for ordinary people, the impact of witnessing a mutilated corpse is more exciting than encountering something strange.
In fact, it is precisely because humans are mortal and disabled that the degree of weirdness, horror and terror is multiplied several times.
He originally planned to run away, hide back home and call the police.
However, during this process, she found two pets at her neighbor's house. Unable to bear the risk of harming them, she took them home and locked the door.
Even after a night, until the sun was high in the sky and the warmth was intense... she stayed at home, hiding, waiting for Lin Fan's reply or the arrival of the police.
This went on for more than ten hours until night fell again.
A feeling of sleepiness and hunger made her weak and her consciousness became hazy.
At this moment, the pet cat she rescued and brought home took the initiative to push a bucket of instant noodles with boiling water to her and kindly reminded her, "Don't be hungry, eat something."
The pet dog brought back a pair of chopsticks, "Don't use a fork, the plastic ones are unhealthy... Use chopsticks."
She was moved at first, then ran back to her room crying. The world had really gone crazy, even cats and dogs could speak human language.
As a result, he didn't even dare to stay in the living room. He curled up in the quilt and didn't dare to go out.
But now, the two pets opened the door by themselves, lay on her bed, pulled at her quilt from time to time, and kept persuading her to come out.
This is what happened today.
"A talking pet?"
Lin Fan was secretly amazed.
He didn't care about the strange knock on the door at the beginning. It was just an intimidation and not worth mentioning.
However, this strange pet surprised him.
In the terror-ridden apocalypse, the vast majority of strange things have human thoughts and human bodies...almost all are in human form.
But there are also alternative existences, such as the strange eyes of the old man in plain clothes. They are not in human form, but exist in the world as a separate part with their own consciousness.
In addition, there are strange creatures of other shapes, which have a special name - strange pets.
The strength of most strange pets is not as good as that of human-shaped monsters. Whether in terms of lethality or effectiveness, they are far inferior. If you want to drive them, you still need to pay a considerable price.
Therefore, in the early stages of terror, strange pets are not welcomed by humans, and they will hide and avoid them if possible.
Unlike other strange things, although the risks are extremely high, in order to be able to make a contract and obtain strange skills, people choose to continue to bravely challenge it.
But after decades of experiencing the horrific apocalypse, Lin Fan knows very well that the role of strange pets will be reflected in the middle and late stages and gradually play its importance.
Their function is not in fighting or assisting in fighting... but in reconnaissance, path-finding, and cannon fodder. They are used to test weirdness and violate rules, and they play a significant role.
In various horror scenes, there are various elusive rules.
The higher the difficulty and the higher the level of the horror scene, the more secretive and restrictive the rules become.
The Bloody Hotel, the Late Night Manor, and the dark streets at midnight that Lin Fan has encountered so far are not difficult and do not have many rules or restrictions.
But next, you will be challenging a terrifying scene with eerie shadows that possess Dao-breaking-level combat power. The difficulty can be imagined, and the rules and restrictions will definitely be far greater than before.
The most dangerous thing was that before Lin Fan was reborn, due to his lack of strength, he had never encountered such a high-end horror scene, which made him unfamiliar with the scene and lacked experience to deal with it.
Although we brought the old man in plain clothes with us, used the Death-Seeing Eyes to survey life and death, and added the Revelation Page to predict crises...it stands to reason that we can avoid most accidents.
But the more means, the better.
If he could use the two strange pets for his own purposes and let them play the role of cannon fodder, the success rate of obtaining the strange shadow would be increased by a few points.
So after thinking about it, Lin Fan replied, "You stabilize them first."
After resting, go over and try to see if you can contract a strange pet.
"How can I keep it steady? I don't even dare to go out... Luckily they can't get in yet."
Yi Qiqi trembled and couldn't help feeling a little worried.
"Can't get in? Are you serious?"
Lin Fan was silent.
They can even open the door, so how could they not be able to open a quilt?
If they really wanted to take my life, the rookie would have been dead long ago.
There must be a special reason for him to be so patient and stay with her, and this is the key to the negotiation.
To be honest, if it wasn't already night, and the streets weren't filled with strange things and dangers, Lin Fan would have gone there on his own.
The purpose of asking him to keep the strange pupil steady was to prevent the strange pet from wandering outside at night, which would make it difficult to find.
If Yi Qiqi had the ability to not only keep calm but also directly contract the strange pet, then when challenging the strange shadow horror scene, Lin Fan would bring her along.
Even if it was to give him guidance and obtain the reward required by the contract for the strange pet... After all, Lin Fan would not do a business that would lose money.
Yiqiqi was silent for a moment, but still unwilling to give up, she asked, "Maybe it's a unique weird rule? Humans hide under the blankets, so they can't come in and scare people?"
It seemed that she had read the corresponding story on the Internet before and remembered it clearly.
On a dark and windy night with heavy rain and wind, a strange creature broke into people's homes. It looked horrible and had a creepy and sinister laugh.
——Hehehe, I’m here to kill you…
"Oh shit." The homeowner was so scared that he quickly hid back in his room and curled up in the quilt.
—It’s no use…Open your eyes and look at me…
The door was opened strangely and easily, and the whole body was exposed through the quilt, with a horrible face of death, directly in front of the owner of the house, with a hideous smile on his face.
The next day, it was sentenced to more than 10 years in prison for violating the law of the ghost world that "you cannot scare people under the quilt."
——Give me another chance, sir…嘤嘤嘤.
…
That's roughly the story.
However, she also knew that this childish idea was most likely wishful thinking and just a way to comfort herself.
Now that Lin Fan has reminded him, he knows that hiding is useless, and besides... this is a task assigned by the master!
The master seemed to be in poverty, so she transferred all her money to him; the master said that the ghost money might be useful in the future, so she hoarded the two million ghost money without thinking twice.
This time was no exception. As long as she could help her master, she felt an inexplicable courage in her heart.
Thinking of this, she directly pulled back the quilt.
Fresh air hits me in the face, and I can finally breathe freely. My body relaxes and I feel comfortable.
Then, looking at the bed, she saw a black dog and a black cat, four eyes looking at her with a hint of human amusement.
"Hey, you finally came out?"
