Haicheng.
It was a little overcast during the day, with a drizzle that brought a touch of moisture and coolness to the hot summer.
In such weather, in the past, walking in the rain would have been a special experience.
But whether on the streets or in the parks, there was no living person to be seen. It was like an empty city, full of death.
…
"There's probably no business to do today."
It’s rainy and the sun isn’t shining. Who would dare to go out? They’d probably die sooner.
Lin Yue came to the door of the store, closed the iron door with a bang, and locked it twice with a big iron chain.
Although these locks don't have much effect on the weirdness, in today's world, sometimes we need to be wary not only of them, but also of living people and their treacherous hearts.
Taking advantage of the free time, Lin Yue picked up his mobile phone and took a look.
【Resource Mutual Aid Group】
"For rice, 30,000 yuan per pound, or three yuan in ghost money."
"Anyone want pork? 15 ghost notes a pound. Only ghost notes."
"Selling all kinds of daily necessities, please contact me privately for prices."
"I'm buying two pounds of beef. No ghost money required. Cash transaction. If you're willing to sell, please contact me privately."
"I just turned eighteen, and I only need five pounds of rice a day."
"Kicked and kicked, is it inlaid with gold or diamonds?"
"Purchase ghost money, the ratio is 12,000."
…
After the terror came, weirdness was everywhere and human activities were restricted. Although various resources still existed, their value was no longer comparable to that in peacetime.
If you don't have the ability to earn some resources in this chaotic world, you might really starve to death.
"I still need to earn more ghost money to prepare for emergencies."
The house where Lin Yue lives has two bedrooms and a living room. One room is used to store cash, paper money and miscellaneous items, and the other room is used for sleeping and resting.
The layout of the hall is similar to that of a traditional Chinese medicine pharmacy. The entire inner wall is covered with wooden drawers containing various materials.
As his mind moved slightly, a [Album of Strange Props] gradually appeared before his eyes.
There are millions of card slots inside, as vast as the galaxy in the universe, dazzling. Most of them are unlocked and cannot be explored at all.
If you concentrate your mind, you can check the ones that have been lit up.
[Album owner: Lin Yue]
【Holding ghost money: 200 yen】
[Lighted up item illustrations: Cursed cockroach that doesn't distinguish between friend and foe, Pig's eyeball that won't close its eyes after death]
This picture album is the capital for Lin Yue to make a living.
…
Originally, Lin Yue lived in a comfortable and peaceful world.
One day, he saw a drunk man beating a woman on the street, and he went up to him to try to persuade him.
As a result, he was stabbed three times by the drunkard and died on the spot.
If you meddle in other people's business, you may lose your life.
When his consciousness was about to end, Lin Yue cursed in his heart: Damn it, if I give him another chance, he will definitely stay hidden and never meddle in other people’s business!
When I came to my senses again, I had traveled to this completely unfamiliar new world - a world where humans and weirdness coexist.
The so-called weirdness is about 70% similar to the "ghosts" in traditional folk tales, but they are not completely the same.
In addition to human-like monsters, there are also many non-human monsters such as wild beasts and monsters.
No one has been able to discover their origins.
All we know is that the ghost is afraid of sunlight, will not appear during the day, and will float around at night.
Even if it is destroyed, it will reappear after a period of time.
There is another special case, that is the foggy area, which is shrouded in thick fog all year round. Even the strong sunlight during the day cannot shine in, and the strange creatures inside are not affected by day and night.
The foggy area is extremely risky and you can die if you are not careful, but the good thing is that opportunities also exist.
Precious ghost money, strange props, strange materials, and strange contracts can all be obtained.
These are the sources of strength in these strange and chaotic times.
…
Because of the death he experienced, Lin Yue became more cautious.
He didn't have the courage to take the chance of traveling through time and space and being reborn to live another life a second time.
Relying on the [Album of Weird Props], Lin Yue lived safely and developed slowly in this terrifying and chaotic world.

[Cursed cockroaches that don't distinguish between friend and foe]
[Living Cockroach] + [Cursed Toad's Body Fluid 10g] + [Eerie Water 10g]
[Production cost: 10 yuan ghost money]
【Production success rate: 98%】
[Effect: When this object is crushed, a curse will be immediately released on the person who crushed the cockroach. This effect can be superimposed.]
[Upgrade Guide: If you can add some more cursed materials, perhaps you can further enhance its effectiveness.]
This is Lin Yue’s way of saving his life.
It is said that my neighbors store grain and I store guns, so my neighbors are my granaries.
Living in strange and chaotic times, even if you live in a low-risk area, you have to take certain preventive measures against various risks.
Now, there are at least thousands of [cursed cockroaches that do not distinguish between friend and foe] buried under the floor in the whole house. They are like landmines. As long as ten kilograms of weight is applied, it is enough to kill the cockroaches under the floor.
The curse of one or two [Cursed Cockroaches that Do Not Distinguish Between Friends and Enemies] is not enough to be fatal.
It will only cause the cursed person to suffer some bad luck and injuries that day.
But the effects can be stacked, one layer stacked on top of another, and it can be fatal!
Someone once came to rob the house and stomped on more than eighty cockroaches under the floor, killing them with one foot. The effects of more than eighty layers of curse were superimposed.
Before the other party could open his mouth to threaten and demand the ghost money, he tripped over his left foot and hit his head against the wall, dying on the spot.
After several similar incidents, almost no one dared to come to his shop.
As for the exact burial location, only Lin Yue knew it, and only those he invited in could be safe.
Anyone who breaks in secretly or by force will almost certainly die.
In addition, physical means are also necessary to avoid being attacked from outside the house.
There is a powerful repeating crossbow hidden at home, which can penetrate even thin iron plates with one arrow.
He hid three such powerful crossbows and hundreds of crossbow arrows, which were enough to fight a protracted battle until the emergency team arrived.
