In theory, a metaphysics anchor suddenly promoted science, saying that feudal superstitions should be rejected, and he would take everyone to the scene to fight against fakes.
How can I describe this feeling? It's like a fucking dream.
The comments under Bai Qiuwu's Weibo post have exploded.
1st Floor: Am I reading this correctly? Master, you want us to believe in science? No, have you forgotten that you also have a name for an electronic Bodhisattva? What kind of weird game are you playing?
Second floor: Oh my god, are you serious? Why don't you check what you've been live-streaming before? Are you kidding us? Wait, what the hell is in this link? Is this something we can watch?
3rd Floor: Holy shit, how can such a horrifying place exist? So many people have gone missing, and the police don't care? Does this village really exist? Is it all hype? How can there be a village like this? It's impossible! Why does it feel so fake?
4th Floor: The above person, the police were in charge, and then they ended up disappearing themselves. Didn't you see? Villages like this are so backward, without even electricity. You don't think they have internet or surveillance, do you? If someone disappears out there in the middle of nowhere, finding them is incredibly difficult, and solving the case is even harder.
5th floor: Could it be that it is because the place is backward that there are these strange rumors? Maybe they have not read any books and do not know that science can explain them, so they feel so scary. In fact, they can all be explained by science.
6th Floor: No, I have a question about the previous one. The people who spread these stories weren't the villagers themselves, but the people who heard the rumors and went there to explore. They were the ones who spread the news. Weren't they also uneducated? Your statement is completely unfounded.
7th Floor: This post looks too scary. I'm not really going to a place like this, am I? Damn, I feel a little scared to watch this live broadcast, but why am I looking forward to it for some reason? Typical of a noob who loves to play around. Forget it, I'll just follow it first.
8th Floor: Looking forward to it! This is the kind of live broadcast a real man should watch! Come on, anchor! I'm really looking forward to it! Waiting for your good news! (I hope it's not news of you going missing or crazy. May God bless you, Amen)
…
Looking at these comments that actually expressed anticipation, Pu Xi's eyes widened, not because of anticipation, but because of fear.
Bai Qiuwu spread his hands and said helplessly, "Although I also want to think about you and change to a simpler one, but now so many people know about it and everyone is looking forward to it, it seems that it is not very convenient to change it..."
"Think about it. We've already introduced the high-difficulty dungeon for our first instance, and everyone's super excited. If we switch to an easier one now, no one will be happy about it. They'll all feel bad about it, after all, expectations have already been raised."
"Do you think what I said makes sense?"
It makes sense.
Pu Xi knew all this better than she did, so after seeing everyone's reaction, he knew that he had to go on this trip.
And there must be a good ending. If he runs away in the middle of the night, he will have no chance of being a host anymore and will be nailed to the pillar of shame.
only……
"Exactly. I mean, is there a possibility that you can go live on your own?" Pu Xi opened his big, Caroline-like eyes and tried to make a final struggle: "I think you can handle it on your own now. You don't need me anymore, right?"
Bai Qiuwu smiled: "What do you think? We've already bought tickets for both of us. You can't let me go alone, right? Don't worry, I will protect you."
Pu Xi: “…”
He really couldn't feel at ease at all.
It’s just too fast that the tickets have already been bought!
Pu Xi wanted to burst into tears, but since things had come to this point, he had no choice but to take a bunch of evil-repelling items he had found and board a plane to the south with Bai Qiuwu two days later.
Because the things he brought were too outrageous, he almost failed to pass the plane security check.
At that time, Bai Qiuwu was looking at the basket of strange things, such as tree branches, wooden swords, solidified blood, etc., and his expression was a little distorted.
"These are all good things. Willow branches, peach wood swords, rooster blood... They say online that these things can ward off evil spirits. I must bring them! They'll definitely come in handy eventually!"
Pu Xi said seriously.
Although Bai Qiuwu really wanted to say these things, it was actually useless. It could not ward off evil spirits at all and might even anger those things.
But she didn't say it in the end. If carrying these things can make him feel at ease and the value of these things has been realized, then let him take them.
The most important thing is that she doesn’t have to pay for the shipping.
Just like that, the two of them (the photographer didn't go as soon as he heard about the location and the job) set off on their journey to the south, carrying a bunch of things (mainly Pu Xi's things) in large and small bags.
This village is located in a very remote small city. They first flew to the provincial capital, then took the high-speed rail, then the train, then the bus, and even took a tricycle at the end.
We spent a whole day on the road and finally arrived at our destination in the evening before it got completely dark.
This was also calculated by them. Otherwise, if they arrived in the middle of the night, the audience would probably have fallen asleep. Who would they be broadcasting to then?
This was the reason Pu Xi gave. Bai Qiuwu was convinced by him and pretended not to know because he was afraid of coming here in the middle of the night.
This village is really dilapidated. The ground is still mud, and the houses are made of mud bricks. The roofs are covered with thick yellow straw. It looks like there are only a dozen or twenty households, which is basically the same as the description on the Internet.
The population in the village is small and everyone knows each other. When a stranger suddenly came, everyone was very curious.
Bai Qiuwu and Pu Xi started the live broadcast as soon as they arrived. Pu Xi was holding the equipment and slowly turning it to capture the situation in the village.
The villagers looked at them curiously, as if they were looking at monkeys in a zoo.
Bai Qiuwu glanced at them and raised his eyebrows in surprise.
He saw these people, and each of them had a dark fog on their bodies. Although it was not as serious as the deer, it was more like they had come into contact with something dirty and were accidentally left behind.
But this also means that there is something in this village.
And it is very likely to be even more powerful than the one with the deer, because the one with the deer will not leave black mist on passers-by when it comes into contact with them.
This one is different. I don’t know how many people it has killed and how much resentment it has, which has left such a dark fog on every villager.
Look, I made the right decision this time!
Bai Qiuwu was very happy and went up to say hello like a community cowherd.
She didn't pick and chose the nearest villager at random. It was an old man who was hoeing the ground. The old man had dark skin and looked to be in his 50s. He looked very smart and capable.
"Hello." Bai Qiuwu greeted politely, "We came here specifically for sightseeing. May I meet your village chief?"
Since she had decided to come, Bai Qiuwu made all the preparations. She looked through the posts in the forum and made a special travel guide.
People in the forum said that this village might be a bit xenophobic because of its small population. If you want to settle down in this village, you have to communicate with their village chief first.
Only by convincing their village chief and then having the village chief arrange their accommodation will these villagers not object.
Otherwise, if you go up and ask someone directly if they have a place to stay, you will definitely be turned away, and you will also be subject to malicious speculation, and some people may even be kicked out.
But perhaps because many outsiders had come here before, the old man was not surprised. He nodded, put down the farm tools in his hands, and said, "Come with me."
His voice was a little hoarse and had a strong accent. Bai Qiuwu almost didn't understand it, but combined with the way he led the way, he still understood it.
She immediately called Pu Xi to follow.
The sun had already set in the sky, but there was still some light, which made the village look even more eerie.
The dilapidated thatched hut cast a large shadow, and the villagers with strange expressions and taciturnity stared at them, looking like a scene from a horror movie.
Many netizens who were watching the live broadcast felt a little creepy.
This village feels so unpleasant, like a scene from a rural corpse. I wouldn't be surprised if a door opened and a coffin was inside. Not only that, but these villagers are so strange! They're all speaking such strange language, I even wonder if we're from the same country.
[As for the previous question, don't you know that the further south you go in my country, the stranger the dialect becomes? In the south, the accent changes every ten miles. Seriously, the accent in this village is really strong. As a pure southerner, I can't quite understand it either. I also find this village a bit strange. I don't know if it's just a psychological effect...]
Oh my god, why does this village look so familiar? When I saw you guys talking about it before, I felt very familiar with it. Now I see, isn’t this my hometown? There are indeed many rumors about ghosts in my hometown, but my parents have moved out and the older generation has passed away. I haven’t been back for a long time. The impression I have is still when I was four or five years old.
When I read those posts, I was thinking how dangerous this village was. Now I think it's not so bad. After all, it's where I lived as a child. However, eating melons in my hometown is also an outrageous experience!
[Oh my god, this anchor is so brave that he actually came to this place. Don’t think I’m exaggerating. I have a friend who is an adventure enthusiast. He heard about this village from somewhere and insisted on coming to explore it. As a result, he is now living in a mental hospital!
I didn't scare you. My friend was very brave, the kind who dared to sleep in a cemetery. As a result, he was frightened in this village and became half-human, half-ghost. He kept telling everyone not to kill him. He looked so miserable. If I had lied to you, my whole family would have died!]
…
Pu Xi had been holding the camera and paying attention to the barrage of comments. When he saw the last one, he felt that his few remaining courage had dwindled even more.
He was very scared and didn't want to come here at all, but since he was already here, he had no choice but to stay.
The only good news is probably that this village has attracted a lot of attention, and people like to watch this type of show. It has only been on the air for a short time, but the number of viewers has already exceeded 100,000, and is still rising like a rocket.
The momentum is no worse than any previous live broadcast, and there is even a hint of catching up, which shows that this move is correct.
Comforting himself in this way, Pu Xi couldn't help but take two steps forward, getting closer to Bai Qiuwu.
In this strange village, Bai Qiuwu is the only sense of security he can find.
Compared to Pu Xi's cautiousness, Bai Qiuwu was much more calm. She looked at this not-so-big village road with interest and greeted every villager passing by. The villagers looked at her as if she were a fool, but Bai Qiuwu didn't care.
She mainly wanted to see the marks on these villagers, and then as she walked along the way, she became more certain that there was indeed something strange about this village.
It's not just weird. At least everyone in this village is infected with evil spirits, whether light or heavy, and no one is spared.
The most serious one is the village chief.
The village chief was a kind-looking old man. He was not tall and was very thin, but he looked very kind.
Unlike the villagers who looked at them coldly, he came forward to greet them warmly and even spoke Mandarin: "My two young friends have come from afar. I am afraid that we may not be able to entertain you well. Please forgive us."
He can speak Mandarin in such an elegant manner, and looks like he is well-educated. Pu Xi was relieved to see that the village chief was such a good communicator.
It's good to be educated, because educated people can understand and reason. What I should fear is those who don't understand anything and can't explain things clearly.
The village chief's house is not big and is located in the middle of the village. Although it is also shabby, it is also quite clean.
Pu Xi actively expressed his desire to live with the village chief and even took out some cash. The village chief seemed reluctant at first, but when he saw the red bills, he immediately changed his tone.
He happily arranged two rooms for them and asked his daughter-in-law to go to the city to buy them good food the next day.
Pu Xi immediately had a favorable impression of the village chief and felt that the village chief's place must be safer than other places.
But what he didn't know was that in Bai Qiuwu's eyes, this kind-faced village chief was surrounded by black energy. Although he didn't see any trace of evil spirits, it was obvious that he was more cared for by evil spirits than anyone else in the village.
If there really is an evil spirit in this village, there is a 90% chance that it lives with the village chief.
But she didn't say any of this, after all...
It would be good to live closer to that thing so it is easier to catch it!
Thinking of this, Bai Qiuwu had no objection to Pu Xi's suicidal behavior and accepted it happily.
So the two of them put down their things and started to clean up the room.
Although there are two rooms, they are actually one larger room divided into two. There is a door in the middle that can be pushed open, and it is separated by a screen, so the sound insulation is not good.
But this makes Pu Xi feel very safe.
He felt that if something happened at night, he could ask the master for help at any time, and the feeling of fear should be better.
But it turned out he was wrong.
