Chapter 9 Heavy Rain
By the time Lin Qingsheng arrived here, the fog had dissipated, the square was empty, and the black shadow that had given him a headache had also disappeared.
Lin Qingsheng rushed to the square and said:
"Where's the hell is that?"
Mao Hongwei looked at the furious Lin Qingsheng and replied with gritted teeth:
"Gone, along with the second ghost thing."
"Where did you go?"
"I don't know. It happened too fast. I've asked someone to check the surveillance, but the news will take a while to come out."
Mao Hongwei paused and said, "I think we may need to check the myths. This has never been seen before in the Ming Dynasty."
Lin Qingsheng turned around and looked at Mao Hongwei seriously.
"Lao Mao, are you serious?"
"I'm serious. I think you should take a look at this. We might be facing not one but two unknown monsters."
Mao Hongwei handed over a tablet, which was a surveillance screen.
Lin Qingsheng took the tablet and his expression instantly became serious. After a long while, he put the tablet down.
The rumbling of thunder sounded again in the distant sky.
A drop of rain fell on the ground, and then heavy rain came in an instant, as if foreshadowing something.
…………
"boom!"
Thunder roared, but there was no lyrical comfort of a bright moon and sparse stars. Instead, there were only dark clouds covering the sky, and the thunder seemed to be creating the world.
On the undulating hills, the leaves were beaten by the heavy rain, making a rustling sound.
In the chaotic darkness, a faint green light flickered in the mist and passed through the earth.
A cold, rotten corpse, wearing broken armor of who knows how many years, holding a mottled bronze chain in its hand, with a huge black shadow tied to the other end of the chain.
The rotten corpse was Wen Zhengming, and the dark shadow behind him was naturally the trouble - the dead ghost.
Wen Zhengming's judgment was correct. Each game character had its own range of activities. Generally speaking, the level 0-9 characters he could create now could not leave their own range of activities.
But if they make contact, then the limit can be broken.
only………
Wen Zhengming looked up at the sky. It was raining heavily and he felt a little lost.
Amid the violent storm, everything was silent, leaving only the faint green light and the mist.
Wen Zhengming took the "dead ghost" who had just killed everyone in Yucheng Square onto the highway as if he was walking a dog.
There was no way, he really couldn't find the way.
Then, on the road from Yucheng to Fengdu, a faint green light appeared, like a ghost fire disturbance above a tomb, flickering and moving away in the heavy rain.
Chen Yang is a reporter for Yucheng Evening News. He was previously assigned to Fengdu, but has now been transferred back and is driving on Fengyu Avenue.
She didn't dare drive fast because the rain was so heavy. It was as if a dam was releasing floodwaters above the sky. The rain fell on the car windows and connected into one piece. She could only vaguely see the reflections of the lights and the highway guardrails.
But fortunately, there weren't many people on the highway at this point.
Although Chen Yang drove very slowly, he drove very steadily.
Not sure if it was because of the rain, but Chen Yang suddenly felt a little cold and shivered uncontrollably.
After shivering, she grabbed a thin blanket from the passenger seat and covered herself with it, but when she came to her senses, she found that it was foggy.
How can there be fog in such heavy rain?
Chen Yang slowed down the car again.
At this moment, a green light suddenly appeared in the distance, green and lush, like the eyes of a hungry wolf in the wilderness.
The green light came from afar, like a ghost fire, flickering in the heavy rain.
The next moment, Chen Yang opened his eyes wide.
In the green light in front of the car, a figure suddenly appeared, wrapped in tattered armor, with a head that was rotten to the bone, and eyes that were flashing with a faint light.
“Bang!”
There was a crisp sound of bronze chains rubbing against the ground.
"When the ghost soldiers pass by, the living people should get out of the way!"
A cold voice sounded, and the broken ghost soldier instantly walked past Chen Yang, as if she was not in his sight at all.
Then a black ghost appeared.
A bronze chain with thick patina pierced through its scapula, dragging it through the heavy rain.
Chen Yang seemed to be able to hear the roar of fear.
In just a moment, the green light swept across Chen Yang's car and disappeared in the distance.
As the green light passed through, the mist slowly dissipated.
Chen Yang was already covered in cold sweat, as if he had just been pulled out of the water.
She hurriedly stopped in the emergency lane and took a long time to come to her senses.
"Did I just see a ghost?"
………
In the distance, Wen Zhengming, who had just met Chen Yang, turned off the highway, cursing in his heart:
I didn't go on the highway to look for road signs, there was no car around.
As soon as I got on the highway, there were cars coming towards me.
Are you guys targeting me, the talented Jiangnan scholar Wen Zhengming?
Especially that couple who parked on the roadside on a rainy day, they scared you guys to death.
The green light floated over the earth and faded away amid the sound of splashing rain.
During a night of wind and rain, countless people saw the flashing green light and the cold ghost figure on this road.
It was late at night and the wind was strong. This night, Fengyu Avenue was destined not to be peaceful.
………
That night, Lin Qingsheng received news that something happened on Fengyu Avenue.
"Let's go, that thing is out of Yucheng."
They chased all the way, and when the sun rose in the east, they finally arrived at the place where the ghost was last seen - Fengdu.
According to the last eyewitness's account, the thing walked into the mountains of Fengdu and never came out again.
The green lights and mist also disappeared into the mountains.
Lin Qingsheng looked at the beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers with bloodshot eyes.
"Fengdu, isn't this a ghost town?"
“It’s a ghost town!”
Mao Hongwei gave an affirmative answer. He looked at this area with a complicated expression. He grew up here when he was a child.
He was very familiar with the legends of Fengdu.
"Ghost town", as the name suggests, is haunted by ghosts and is extremely terrifying.
Fengdu is just like this. Going down the river from Yucheng, the ghost town of Fengdu is hidden in the mountains on the shore, adding a sense of mystery and eeriness.
It is known as the "capital of ghosts" and the "hell".
According to the "Duren Jing" written during the Wei and Jin Dynasties, Fengdu is located beside the Liutianqing River. It has three palaces and nine mansions. The palaces and towers are as noble as the heaven. The Ghost Emperor sits here and commands billions of ghosts and gods.
It is the legendary final resting place of the dead.
Lin Qingsheng stepped on the mud after the rain, took a breath and said:
"This case is getting more and more mysterious!"
A black shadow like a ghost in the legend.
A strange green light that looks like that of evil soldiers.
There is also the legend of Fengdu which has been passed down for who knows how many years.
Everything points to one result.
Lin Qingsheng lit a cigarette, took a deep puff and said:
"Let's seal this place off first. When we get back, we need to ask if this is the first time that we in the Ming Dynasty have encountered someone who talks nonsense like this. This kind of thing is really exciting."
