Styx Doll (Thirteen)
On the way back, He Guang seemed to be daydreaming again, but in fact he was communicating with the barrage.
The audience from another time and space saw that she at least did not reveal her identity as the ghost messenger, and laughed at her unscrupulously throughout the whole process.
[Anchor, you say you]
[I'm not surprised at all that the anchor was caught]
[Actually, what Brother Youyi said is correct. You are indeed overprotective.]
[I said I felt like I forgot something, it turned out to be the sachet, this is physical evidence]
[Anchor, please be more careful]
[Host: Dim sum, what kind of dim sum?]
[Hahahaha that’s too much]
[Host, take it easy. What if even the ghost messenger's vest falls off? Let's see what you will do.]
The system also said, "Host, given the strong gravity of the plot, the hero cannot stay away from the center of the incident unless the plot comes to a temporary end. You should discuss this with me next time."
He Guang lowered his head, "I know, you guys have been laughing at me for a long time, aren't you tired?"
She sighed, "I'm just worried!"
"What are you worried about?" said the system.
He Guang crossed his fingers and made a thoughtful expression, "I'm not sure I can guarantee their safety 100% this time."
The system advised, "Host, there is nothing perfect in this world. Everything has risks. If something happens to the hero and his friends left in the city, you won't be able to save them in time."
"This time, our opponent is very strong." He Guang frowned slightly, "I... am very worried."
She said this carefully and smiled again, "But you are right."
[It makes me feel even worse to have the anchor say that she is worried]
[Anchor, anchor, are you really okay? ]
"It's okay, I'll do my best," said Kazumitsu.
When we returned to the village, it was completely dark. Fortunately, we didn't encounter any ghost walls on the road, or any exciting scenes where the driver suddenly turned into a ghost.
But the atmosphere back at the hotel was a little weird. The proprietress was still sitting in the living room watching TV. When she saw them coming back, she immediately greeted them, "You're back? You bought a lot of things."
"We'll be going back in two days, so we have to buy some souvenirs so that our trip won't be in vain. By the way, we just saw a police car passing by. Are they going to take us away for interrogation again? Did they find anyone?" You Yi said.
"How could that be possible?" The proprietress was amused by his words. Then she thought of something and looked a little strange, as if she was solemn and frightened. "Another person has drowned in the river."
When the three heard this, their expressions changed.
You Yi couldn't help but ask, "What's going on?"
"It's hard to explain. A girl in her twenties, not a child, went to the river to swim and drowned for no reason."
The proprietress frowned and said, "She was a nurse in the clinic. She was already dead when she was found. It was said that her legs were covered with handprints.
Now everyone in the village says that there are water ghosts in the river again."
"Again?" Chen Mengze's heart moved, "Has there been water ghosts in the river before?"
“We had a fight when we were kids, and it was pretty fierce.
When summer comes, many children drown when swimming.
So at that time the adults in the village kept a close eye on the children, but later on, they did so less often.
Even if there was an accident in recent years, there would not be such a mark. I really don’t know what happened.” The proprietress couldn’t help but sigh.
As he was talking, he saw Shanzha coming back from outside like a mud monkey, followed by his two close friends, and tiptoed into his room first.
When the lady boss saw her son like this, she was furious. "Where have you been running off to, you little bastard? Did you go to the river again? Did you know that you've drowned someone again?"
Shanzha responded calmly, "I know, I won't go there anymore."
The proprietress wanted to say something else, but then she heard him say, "I'm hungry."
Perhaps because she was concerned about the presence of outsiders, or perhaps because she felt sorry for her son, the proprietress said "little debt collector" in a bad mood, and then trudged into the kitchen.
Shanzha turned his head and looked at He Guang and the other two. "Have you bought everything?"
"Don't worry about us." You Yi felt sorry for him when he saw how wet he was. "Boss, can you change your clothes first?"
Shanzha didn't care much about his own condition and nodded indifferently, "Just give me the things. I have to get started quickly too."
Shen Mengze asked, "Do you need our help?"
Shanzha paused, and he glanced at Heguang covertly, "No need, you are already being watched, stay in my house and don't walk around."
Shen Mengze glanced at the door of his room, wanting to say something, but finally changed the subject, "Be careful when you are alone."
Sometimes, danger exists not only among ghosts.
"There's a rumor going around in the village that there's a water ghost by the river." Shanzha smiled. "No one dares to walk around in the middle of the night. Besides, in their eyes, I'm much scarier than a ghost."
None of the three knew what to say, and Shanzha didn't wait for them to react. He carried his things into his room.
He Guang used the excuse of watching TV downstairs and did not go upstairs. The two boys went upstairs to take a shower first. After a while, Shanzha changed into pajamas and walked out of the room.
A pleasant smell of cooking smoke wafted out from the kitchen. Two people sat on the sofa, watching TV, thinking about other things in their minds.
"It killed people again. Has the seal become ineffective?" asked He Guang.
"It hasn't completely lost its effect yet." Shanzha said, "Hospitals are places with a lot of negative energy. It's okay in a small clinic, where not many people died. That nurse must have been targeted a long time ago.
They are still sealed and restricted, and can only target weak women, children and the elderly.
If it is completely ineffective, they will attack without any scruples. They have been trying to kill you before because the more people die, the more resentment they will have, and the stronger they will become. "
Now He Guang was worried. Seeing Shanzha hanging his head, she thought that although he said it lightly, he must be under great pressure. So she patted him on the back and said, "Don't be afraid. At least you have me as your helper now. You won't be fighting alone in the future."
Shanzha didn't act arrogant this time, saying that there was no point in having you here. He sighed, "Sometimes I sit here and feel comfortable. I can see my mom cooking over there when I look up, which is nice. But sometimes, I'm scared. I'm worried that I can't protect this place."
He pointed to his living room and said, "Just like that day when I went to the river, I saw them being fished out. But what's the use? They can never come back."
"They?" He Guang asked.
"They are my friends." Shanzha looked up. "Those who died young don't even have graves. They are buried in the cemetery behind the village. I go there sometimes, hoping to see them."
He Guang pursed her lips. She remembered the child saying that he did not have the ability to see ghosts and was born immune to gods and ghosts. Even if his friend's soul remained in the world, he would not be able to see it, not to mention that it was still unknown whether it remained or not.
He Guang patted Shanzha's back repeatedly to comfort him.
"Do you think we can win?" Shanzha suddenly looked up and asked, "What will they do if I die too?"
"It will definitely be no problem." He Guang said firmly.
"Why are you so confident?" Hawthorn wondered.
"Because you can think of these things now, you already have the heart to protect others." He Guang said seriously, "The heart that protects others is the most indestructible."
Shanzha twitched his lips and pushed her hand away, "Forget it, you should read less second-year comics in the future. According to what you said, the policeman should be the most powerful.
There wouldn't be so many people dying on duty every year. I'd rather write a suicide note than listen to your nonsense."
"It is a motivation, a kind of intention, not a power that can turn you into a superman all of a sudden." He Guang said seriously, "If you have it, you will want to become stronger and stronger. As long as you are alive, you will not stop moving forward. It is because of this intention that the police can block most of the dangers in places that ordinary people cannot see.
The same goes for you. Without you, we might have died, and many more people in the village might have died."
Shanzha couldn't help but look back, and saw that under the light and shadow, He Guang's eyes were like a clear pond, seemingly crystal clear, but when he looked over, he found that there was no end to the calm water.
"This kind of heart will also motivate you to change yourself, just like I used to be not smart at all and acted impulsively, but now some people actually praise me for being thorough."
Shanzha stood up and this time he walked into the room without looking back.
[Hahaha, large chicken soup pot flipping scene]
[The anchor is very persistent in being smart and thorough]
[If you don’t say the last sentence, the anchor will drink your chicken soup]
He Guang sighed, "I just couldn't help it. I wanted to show off my progress to others."
[Host, your fighting power is enough to dominate the world, why do you always focus on your IQ?]
[This is probably because the less you have, the more you cling to it.]
【right】
[Hey, wait, does this mean the anchor lacks intelligence?]
[Hahahaha I didn’t say that]
"A bunch of bad guys who just know how to make fun of me all day long." He Guang curled his lips and walked upstairs.
“System Master, exchange some useful amulets for me. Shanzha and I are going out to work tonight. It would be bad if those things come to disturb classmate Shen and the others again.”
The system said it was okay and opened the store to help her filter.
"I also want to finish this quickly." He Guang talked to the audience and took the last step of the stairs, but suddenly he stumbled and fell to his knees.
The system noticed something unusual on her side and quickly asked, "Host, what's wrong with you?"
He Guang knelt on the ground for a few seconds before raising his head and looking around, as if looking for something.
【Anchor, what's wrong with you】
"It's okay." She stood up, ran quickly to the door of Shen Mengze's room, and pushed the door open without even knocking.
The two living people in the room were startled by her. You Yi was changing clothes and hadn't put on his shirt yet. He grabbed his clothes and covered his chest with them, "What are you doing?"
He Guang instinctively raised his hands to cover his face, "I'm sorry, I didn't see anything."
You Yi: Do you dare to sew your fingers together before saying this?
[This conversation and this scene look mysteriously familiar]
[I know, I know. Usually in costume dramas, the male lead bumps into the female lead changing clothes.]
[Our anchor is really good, he does the opposite]
[Brother Youyi's reaction is also like a shy young wife]
Seeing that nothing happened, the audience started to tease He Guang.
You Yi put on his clothes immediately after he realized what was happening. He said unhappily, "Brother, I'm not saying anything bad about you. We are a couple from a good family. What do you think it is to suddenly barge in?"
Shen Mengze was originally dressed neatly and was much calmer than him. He was speechless for a long time after hearing what he said.
What the hell is Fu Nan?
Kebihe Guang nodded sincerely, "Yes, I will pay attention. However, Youyi classmate, you are too thin. You should exercise well so that you can run faster when you encounter danger."
Cruising, "..."
That's it, and you still have the nerve to say you didn't see anything just now.
Chen Mengze recalled that He Guang looked a little anxious when he broke in just now, and couldn't help asking, "He Guang, did something happen just now? You were very anxious when you came in."
When he asked, He Guang couldn't help but look around the room, "I seemed to see something running past in the corridor just now, so I was a little worried."
Seeing the two boys' expressions become serious, He Guang waved his hand and said, "Maybe I saw it wrongly. Since there is nothing else, I will leave first. Good night."
Shen Mengze nodded thoughtfully, "Good night."
