Dream of Death (I)
"you mean……"
Mo Liuying pondered for a moment, but couldn't come up with the right words. Forming an alliance, teaming up, or sticking together didn't seem appropriate, although they meant the same thing.
“We need to build collaboration.”
She ultimately chose this word, even though it sounded formulaic.
At this time, the bright sunlight shining in from the floor-to-ceiling windows gave her a light golden luster, so that the words "glowingly beautiful" actually appeared in He Guang's empty brain, which had always only been able to compliment people on their good looks.
She paused for a moment and replied decisively, "Yes, Mr. Mo, you see, our lives are full of crises and challenges. The power of an individual is too weak, and it is easy to implicate innocent people, so we should unite as one."
Mo Liuying maintained a pensive look, and it was unclear whether he was moved or indifferent.
He Guang tried to persuade them, "And there is one who sings well. Unity is strength, this strength is iron, this strength is steel!"
You Yi, who was standing by, couldn't help laughing so hard that he burst out laughing in front of the coffee table after hearing her sing a few lines.
"He Guang, your taste in music is second to none."
It took him a long time to stop laughing, "Don't use this to harm us in the future."
He turned to Mo Liuying and said, "You don't know that when I was in Xiaoqinghe Village, she played Little Nezha for me every day."
He Guang corrected, "Not every day, just one night."
Mo Liuying smiled slightly. She could see that the relationship between the three of them had become much closer after this trip.
Sharing hardships together does indeed help to enhance friendship. She and Shen Mengze had been classmates for so many years, but they had never been able to get together and have such a pleasant chat as they do now.
This is the third day since He Guang and the other two returned from Xiaoqinghe Village. When He Guang was in the village, she came up with the idea that the protagonist and supporting characters should form a small group to overcome difficulties together. Now she invited the three of them to her home to play, and she also wanted to talk to them about this matter.
She saw that the three people had different expressions, but they were obviously thinking about this matter, so she didn't urge them.
The system, which had been listening for a while, said, "Host, when did you come up with this idea? Is this your brilliant idea?"
He Guang took a bite of potato chips and said, "Didn't you see the results of that brilliant idea? What do you think? System-kun, am I really awesome?"
When the system thought of her using the statue of the female demon to suppress the ghost baby that refused to reincarnate, and even placed the statue in her room, it felt sad and said in a very bitter tone, "You are awesome."
He Guang was pleased with the compliment and continued, "It was at the hotel when they were first attacked. I thought it would be impossible to fight alone. It would be great if everyone could unite together."
The system thought, "This is indeed a good suggestion. When you trigger the plot next time, host, you will not be suspected of being involved every time. Moreover, once the protagonist agrees, you will belong to the protagonist's team. It will also be good for the stability of your destiny line, and your luck will protect you."
He Guang said happily, "So there are so many benefits. But will they agree?"
"I think so."
The system said, "Your suggestion is beneficial in every way. The three of them are smart people and they know their own situation very well. If they must refuse, it's only because they are afraid of getting you into trouble.
But you have been through these things together, so they should have an idea. You have already entered into your fate and there is no escape."
After listening to the system's deep analysis, He Guang felt that it made a lot of sense, "System, did you change the voice system? This is also very interesting."
The system said shyly, "Host, you've discovered this. My friend bought it for me. It recently found a suitable partner and is very happy. Not only did it buy us gifts, it will also tell me anything I ask."
"So when it's unhappy, will it ignore you?"
"Not really." The system said, "To use your human words, it is relatively rational and aloof, knows a lot, and is the most promising system among the systems that were produced at the same time as us."
It said this with great pride.
"System-kun, I'm so happy for you to have such an excellent friend." He Guang said.
"I am also very happy that the host knows you." said the system.
He Guang was very moved. During the daily corny conversation between this man and the system, Mo Liuying and the other two had already thought things through.
Shen Mengze had been looking at He Guang with a complicated look just now, and now he said, "I agree with He Guang's proposal. When we encountered those things, it was difficult to get help and understanding from the outside world."
The outside world he mentioned does not only refer to the police or other strangers, but also relatives and friends. If you don't experience this kind of thing yourself, no one will believe it. Moreover, believing is one thing, and being able to provide help is another.
So these people who have had the same experience are the best allies, and now they have a foundation of emotion and trust, which is the most crucial point.
Mo Liuying nodded gently, "Okay."
You Yi leaned back on the sofa and said, "I have no objection."
He Guang was very happy. She clapped her hands and said, "Well, from now on, we will live and die together, and advance and retreat together."
You Yi grinned, "How about we swear a blood oath, like the Four Brothers of Peach Garden?"
Mo Liuying laughed softly.
He Guang thought for a moment and said, "I didn't expect that you would be so serious, You Yi. I didn't think it through enough. But if you don't know how to handle the situation well, you might hurt yourself. How about I make some tea and we can drink it instead of wine?"
Chen Mengze hit You Yi, turned his head and said to He Guang, "He is joking, you don't have to pay attention to him."
You Yi lay down on the sofa, "Ouch, I'm seriously injured, let me lie down for a while. Since we have formed an alliance, we should be honest with each other. Now can you tell me who that gentleman is?"
Mo Liuying went to see Chen Mengze. During her adventures, she was possessed most of the time and never communicated directly with the ghost.
Chen Mengze went to see He Guang again. He just felt that the other party was the person who had the closest relationship with that person.
He Guang looked back at him innocently and thought to himself that I had just acted it out on a whim, and now if you ask me to speak again, what if I let something slip?
You Yi felt that the gazes of the three people were forming a circle. "How important is that master? Not only did you ask him to call you master, but you didn't even dare to mention him."
Shen Mengze smiled helplessly, "It's not that we don't dare, it's that we don't know her well."
He Guang tore open a bag of jelly neatly and said slowly, "Although I was possessed by her every time, the only time I had a direct exchange with her was when you fainted in the library. When she left, she threw me a talisman and said that maybe we would meet again. Actually, I have a lot of things I want to ask her."
This statement was made up by the system for her, and it could perfectly explain how she evolved from being bold to becoming even bolder since she started in the villa.
When people are confident, they will also be courageous.
Chen Mengze nodded gently. He had already guessed this. "Then let me tell you. That lady is a ghost messenger. According to her, for some reason, the passage between the human world and the underworld collapsed and was only opened in recent years.
As a result, there are a lot of old cases piled up, and City A is also the area she is responsible for. We first met in the library, when..."
Chen Mengze sorted out the fragmentary clues that He Guang had made up and told You Yi in the simplest terms.
The system listened and took notes in a small notebook, intending to continue improving on this basis in the future.
After hearing things he didn't know, You Yi's worldview was completely reorganized.
He Guang waved at him and said, "Youyi, why are you so surprised? I've seen ghosts so many times, so I can't miss another ghost messenger. And you haven't seen one yet."
After she said this, the other three people in the room stared at her, thinking, only someone as broad-minded as you could say that.
You Yi sat up, "So you two have already been on an adventure together. I was surprised to learn that you reached a consensus so quickly in the villa. I thought you were my ex-lover, but it turns out you are my new love."
Chen Mengze was helpless, “Don’t talk nonsense, I actually think the villa incident ended very abruptly, and that adult also told me to be careful when he left.”
He frowned, clearly confused.
Mo Liuying, another eyewitness, did not regard this incident as a problem. "Don't think about things that you can't figure out, so as not to get stuck in a dead end. Since the female evil has left, it is unlikely that she will come back to find us. People don't care whether the ants passing by their feet are the ones they didn't have time to crush last time."
Her tone was calm and cruel.
He Guang listened to their analysis of the situation and nodded his head, and finally put forward his own ideas. "The holiday is not over yet, we should seize the time and exercise more."
She deeply felt that these people were not lacking in theory and common sense. They knew more about dealing with supernatural events than ordinary people and even more than her. What they lacked was practical experience.
It is impossible to create a group of martial arts masters in just one holiday.
Many skills cannot be acquired overnight, but like Guangjue, it would be a good thing if they could run faster through training. If they encounter such a thing again, at least they will not be killed because of their inability to run.
That's the truth, but Youyi just can't control his mouth.
"Are you so sure that there will be a next time?"
"This has happened to us one after another." He Guang opened his eyes wide, "Youyi, you still believe in your luck. You are really an optimistic person."
You Yi, who was forcibly labeled as an optimist, was speechless.
Mo Liuying smiled and said, "Stop messing around, let's discuss business. He Guang is right, we don't have to have any expectations about our luck."
Encountering supernatural events is not like going to school, where you only study for a certain number of years. They may not have a next time, or they may have to face this next time forever, and then get together.
You Yi stroked his chin. "Although I almost lost my life during this trip to Xiaoqinghe Village, it was not a bad thing. At least we have found out from practice that things like black dog blood that can drive away evil spirits in folklore are not useless, although they may not be very useful. But the most important thing is that we have a long-range backer - Boss Shanzha."
He is a man of few moral principles, and he doesn't feel ashamed to call a ten-year-old kid "big brother". Anyway, he admires people with real abilities.
"Although he is a little far away from us, he is much better than the ghost messenger who is hard to find."
Mo Liuying said, "It would be great if we could get some way to contact the Ghost Messenger."
She said as she glanced at Shen Mengze, who naturally understood what she meant.
Shen Mengze nodded, “If there is a chance, I will try it.”
Mo Liuying said, "Relying on external forces is ultimately too much about luck, so we should still be vigilant. If we encounter such things, we should avoid them if we can. If we can't avoid them, we should make more preparations and then investigate. Let's make a plan first! For example, exercise, collect materials, and when one of us encounters such a thing, if others are not present or not involved, there should be a clear division of labor for helping."
You Yi thought what she said made sense, so he started a discussion with her, and they agreed to move the gathering to the club activity room on campus after school started.
He Guang felt very strange from just now. After she expressed the idea of forming a team, Shen Mengze looked at her with a very complicated look. She asked directly, "Student Shen, what are you thinking about?"
Shen Mengze smiled at her, "Nothing, I just remembered my old friend."
At that time, they were also a small team, and they also gathered together to survive and solve these incidents, but now he is probably the only one alive in the world.
He stared at Kazuhiko, "It's just that you and my friends, and all of us, are different."
He Guang scratched his head, "What's the difference?"
Shen Mengze did not continue to speak, but just shook his head, "Nothing, I just suddenly felt a little emotional when I thought of them, you don't have to care."
He just thought that He Guang would be a miracle.
