Chapter 169 169. Night Wandering
A place where a lot of ghosts appear is definitely not a good place.
It is almost impossible for ordinary people to transform into ghosts after death. It requires a special physique and a specific time, as well as sufficient obsession. The formation conditions are extremely harsh.
It is possible that the caster will become a ghost after death, but due to the small number of people, it is difficult to form multiple levels.
There are generally only two possible reasons for ghosts to appear in large numbers. One is due to the terrain, where some places are more likely to gather negative force fields, which accumulate over a long period of time.
It is not ruled out that evil spellcasters artificially create a netherworld suitable for the birth of ghosts.
Another possibility is that a large number of people died nearby in a short period of time, and the residual spiritual force fields of the dead merged with each other, thus increasing the probability of birth.
Either way, it is an extremely dangerous situation.
In the former case, perhaps ordinary ghosts with a certain degree of rationality would not take the initiative to attack and involve innocent people. However, the underworld itself means the danger of getting lost.
It is best for the living not to enter.
The latter, a ghost born from the fusion of a large amount of resentment, is simply called a vengeful spirit.
It will be more aggressive, crazy and irrational. Like a nasty mosquito, it will constantly try to attack and entangle the living and snatch the broken souls of humans.
Generally speaking, vengeful spirits are not that powerful and can only influence humans on a spiritual level.
The trouble is that ordinary people can't see them, and they are immune to physical damage, so there's no way to deal with them.
Sometimes people only become aware of the existence of vengeful spirits when they are tortured to the point of being very weak.
It is relatively easy for spellcasters to deal with ghosts. Even beginner apprentices at least have the ability to expel them.
On the contrary, warriors basically have no way to deal with ghosts.
The only means of defense is to rely on one's own Qi and blood. Strong Qi and blood will make the resentful spirit feel uncomfortable. A firm will will make the resentful spirit unable to gain anything, and will eventually give up.
Unless one breaks through the limit and condenses the energy, one will have the initial ability to influence spiritual bodies.
But not being able to see is always the biggest problem.
Even if one goes a step further and the Qi develops a restraining attribute, one is still in a passive position.
Late at night, on the fifth floor of Fulin Castle, in the lord's office.
With the help of the kerosene lamp, Lowe quickly flipped through the documents submitted.
Since the popularization of paper, he began to require the governors of towns in his territory to summarize affairs on a monthly basis.
In my hand is a very rare special incident report, signed by Raja.
Lord, I need to inform you that ghosts are appearing in Dam Village. Many people are missing. Fortunately, the priest of Ice Wolf Village promised to solve the problem. I will keep you informed if there is any follow-up.
Lovi frowned and knocked on the table unconsciously.
The two maids pushed the door open in a hurry, obviously misunderstanding me.
"Master, are you going out for a walk now?"
Lovi simply went with the flow and said, "Okay, let's go."
I have the habit of taking a walk every night. It is very interesting to walk with a lantern in the dark.
The temperature is relatively suitable now. If it were colder, he would probably stay at home every day and would not want to go anywhere.
The two maids following beside him were Su Ya and Yun Qi.
Considering that the black-haired man had demon blood, the two were arranged to follow the same schedule as Lowe.
Now, they all seem to be in pretty good spirits.
There are no signs of dark circles caused by staying up late, and the skin is more radiant and moisturized.
Suya itself also had additional teaching work, and classes were moved to the morning and evening hours.
During the interim period, a new teacher was in charge. I heard that he was Aka's younger brother Tailun.
Lovey stopped at the school gate and looked inside through the glass window.
The empty classroom was silent.
There was a duty booth nearby with a kerosene lamp hanging at the door.
The old night watchman came out and saluted him: "My Lord."
Luo Wei nodded gently: "Thank you for your hard work."
"It's been a pleasure to serve you."
The old night watchman watched the lord and the maid leave.
After they walked for a while on the flat asphalt road, Su Ya broke the silence and said, "Master, where are we going?"
"Catch ghosts." Lowe said lightly.
"There is no ghost." Yun Qi's expression changed slightly.
She still remembered the desperate battle she experienced on this road.
"Not here, in the mausoleum area. The night watchmen and patrolling guards reported to Bruno that they saw will-o'-the-wisps at night, suspected to be ghost activity." Lovey walked slowly with his hands behind his back.
He could take a flying carpet and solve the problem in one go. That would be boring. Taking a walk and relaxing are the main things, solving the problem of ghosts is secondary.
Lovey was humming a song softly with the tip of his nose, with the mentality of flirting with a girl.
"Master, what are you doing pulling my belt for?"
“I’m afraid you’ll get lost.”
After walking for a while, I felt tired and took out a chair from my space pocket to rest for a while, drink some tea and eat some cakes.
Sometimes you can hear some birds singing and insects chirping.
This night doesn't seem so lonely anymore.
The starry sky is shrouded in clouds and is far less bright than the summer night.
Luo Wei retracted his gaze and glanced at the two of them: "Do you miss your family?"
"I want a new family." Su Ya pursed her red lips.
"You, why are you like this?" Yun Qi's pretty face flushed, and she couldn't accept her directness.
"I mean, I can approve you to take some time off, just like Lan Lan." Luo Wei put away the recliner and stretched his body lazily: "It's not convenient for Su Ya to go back, Yun Qi, you can consider it."
"I don't want to go back at all." Yun Qi lowered her eyes and grasped the hem of her skirt tightly with her slender hands.
"Won't your family miss you?" Lowe asked.
"I don't know. It feels boring. It's very dull over there." Yun Qi slowly turned his face, stood up and asked Lowe to put away the bench.
Everyone knows that Yun Qi's mother is called Yun Ruo. She is a powerful limit breaker and has a martial arts hall in Donglin City.
The family background should be considered quite good, but it is said that the relationship between mother and daughter is not good.
Yun Qi seldom mentioned his family situation, and of course no one would keep asking about it.
The mausoleum area is located on the northern outskirts of Donggang City.
A team of patrol guards automatically joined Lowe's team, and the number of people around him suddenly exceeded ten.
"With so many people, all the ghosts were scared away." Lovey muttered softly.
If there are many people, the Qi and blood will be stronger, and the cunning ghost will hide and will not show up.
"My lord, we were on patrol just now and saw green flames appearing in the mausoleum area." The captain of the strong female city defense force reported.
"This is not a will-o'-the-wisp, it's just phosphorus. There is phosphorus in the human body, and the ignition point of phosphorus is very low." Lovi casually did some popular science, ignoring the confusion of the people present: "The conditions for the formation of ghosts are harsh, and it is generally impossible for them to be near towns. My mother patrolled many times a while ago, and she had already dealt with the ghosts."
Lowe stopped talking to himself and spread his mental power to cover a large area of the mausoleum.
Cremation has not yet become completely popular, and some people still secretly practice burials, and some animal corpses are buried in the ground.
The appearance of phosphorescence is actually quite normal.
"Holy crap! There really is a ghost!"
