The sandwich made by Ji Xingchen was beautifully presented, with celery and cherry tomatoes neatly arranged on the edge of the plate as decoration, and even the sauce was drawn in a neat circle, giving the whole presentation a sense of rigor.
Chi Shen looked at the work of art and said, "We don't need to cook it like this when we eat it ourselves."
Ji Xingchen pushed his glasses up: "The tutorial is like this, I just followed it."
When Chi Shen looked up, he saw the kitchen scale in the kitchen. He thought about why a kitchen scale was needed to make a sandwich. He then saw the measuring cylinder, beaker and triangle ruler placed beside them, and was strangely silent for a few seconds.
Chi Shen: "...Okay, at least it tastes good."
After breakfast, he said goodbye to the ghosts in the house and went out.
Bai Wan did not call today, and Chi Shen did not know what the progress was with Zhong Yi. He was still slacking off while writing the BOSS design as usual. Li Xu was very satisfied with the BOSS he designed, and had already started to let him communicate with the art department to improve the BOSS together.
After get off work, Chi Shen was not idle either. Ji Xingchen went to buy groceries and cook, while Chi Shen began to study the ancient books of the Zhong family.
He had almost finished reading all the Zhong family's strange stories. His conclusion was that, whether it was because the early generations did not pay much attention to recording, or because there were more and more ghosts and monsters, the Zhong family's strange stories became thicker with each generation. There were only about twenty stories in the beginning, but by the end, there were already more than a hundred stories.
However, these records of strange things stopped about a hundred years ago. According to Zhong Jingsong, these records have not been put into museums and cannot be considered ancient books. If Chi Shen needs them, they can be sent to him.
Chi Shen asked Zhong Jingsong to send it, but he still read it in chronological order and even printed it out to take notes. After finishing it, he began to read the rest of the Zhong family's ghost exorcism summary, which included some characteristics of ghosts, how ghosts were produced and so on. Chi Shen was very familiar with these, so he took a quick look and suddenly stopped when he was halfway through.
He saw a line of words: Ghosts have their own dens, and they can go back and forth in a moment.
Not only this sentence, there are also some comments from the descendants of the Zhong family below. Bai Wan also helped Chi Shen read it before and made some notes to prevent Chi Shen from not understanding it. This sentence specifically describes that evil spirits can form their own world, and traveling to the ghost world does not consume a lot of time.
The following notes also write about the research of the descendants of the Zhong family. The general meaning is that the ghost must be an evil ghost, and not every ghost has one. The probability of an evil ghost being in a den is relatively high for an evil ghost.
Later on, some characteristics of the ghost den were written, which are probably the obsession of the ghost before death. If the ghost's obsession is big enough and the ghost itself is strong enough, it will even suck people into its own ghost den.
This description seemed too familiar to him. Aren’t these the copies he had experienced?
According to this theory, would he have a ghost?
Chi Shen stretched out his hand and imagined what a ghost den would look like... In all the copies he had experienced before, he entered and exited through a door, so first of all, there must be a door.
So he made a motion of pulling the door.
Nothing happened, no door appeared in front of him, and no premonition of opening a new world.
Is that an imaginary door?
Chi Shen walked to the bedroom door again, closed his eyes and imagined for a while, then opened the door. Nothing happened. Behind the door was still his bedroom, and Ji Xingchen's body was still hanging upside down on the wall.
It could be that this door is not working properly, or that Ji Xingchen No. 1 behind the door has had a bad influence.
So Chi Shen went to open the toilet door again, but it didn't work.
Next is the side door, no.
…
When Ji Xingchen was carrying the vegetables home, he saw Chi Shen opening and closing the door with his eyes closed. The female ghost in red and the ghost face were hiding aside, looking at Chi Shen strangely but not daring to ask.
Seeing Ji Xingchen coming back, Chi Shen explained to him that he was doing an experiment and explained the principles of the experiment.
Ji Xingchen was holding a shopping bag in one hand and pushing his glasses with the other: "Have you ever thought that it's not the door's problem, it's your problem, and you probably can't be considered a ghost."
"I did think about it," Chi Shen nodded and said, "So before you came back, I used myself to do the experiment. Now that it has been proven that it is indeed not feasible, the next step is to use you as the experiment!"
Ji Xingchen raised his hand and signaled him: "I probably haven't reached the level of a fierce ghost, so I can't open the ghost den."
After that, he was silent for a while, and continued: "I consumed too much energy last night. My body and I are in a calm state. I should not be able to activate the ghost cave."
After hearing this, Chi Shen also fell silent.
Only the red-dressed female ghost and the ghost face at the side showed a gossipy look, as if they wanted them to talk more and tell in detail why they consumed so much last night?
"Take your time to think about it. I'll go cook first." Ji Xingchen looked at the female ghost in red and the ghost face, then walked into the kitchen with the shopping bag.
Now Chi Shen also saw the ghost face and the female ghost in red.
Since he and Ji Xingchen can't do it, then there are other ghosts in this house. If Ji Xingchen has too much Yin energy and will go berserk, wouldn't it be better to replace him with someone who won't go berserk?
Chi Shen gave the two ghosts a kind smile.
The two ghosts suddenly had a bad premonition and ran away.
Three minutes later.
The red-clothed female ghost and the ghost face sat on two chairs opposite the dining table. Chi Shen sat opposite the two ghosts, looking at them with gentle eyes, exuding his kindness.
The red-dressed female ghost seemed a little embarrassed by being stared at. She raised her hand to gather her hair, lowered her head shyly, and then began to chew her nails nervously. The ghost face was just showing off, and the look in his eyes seemed to say: You can kill me or chop me up, it's up to you!
"You mean, you grew back after consuming some of the ghost energy he leaked?" Chi Shen asked another question first, and while speaking, he pointed at Ji Xingchen in the kitchen.
He noticed in the morning that the red-clothed female ghost had grown back a little, but he had to go to work, so he didn't explore why. But now, he naturally had to ask since he had a use for it.
Ghost Face perked up immediately after hearing that. He perked up for two seconds before sighing in regret: "If I had known, I would have eaten a little too. But how dare you open your mouth with that kind of ghost energy? Aren't you scared?"
The female ghost in red bit her nails and nodded, like a child who had done something wrong. She didn't grow back completely, only half of it, with the upper body still there, and the lower body had not grown back yet.
Chi Shen said: "It seems that the ghost energy of the two of you is compatible, maybe because she was fed your blood before, I think yours should be compatible too?"
Chi Shen raised his hand, and a wisp of ghost energy entered the body of the red-clothed female ghost, and was quickly digested by her. The red-clothed female ghost grew back a little bit of her lost body.
"It's you," Chi Shen asked with a smile, "Do you want to be free?"
"Would you like to no longer be troubled by death, forget the pain of death, and gain true liberation?"
