Chapter Two

Xie Jin bid farewell to the innkeeper, and in the sinking night, he stepped into the entrance that was mostly blocked by the entanglement of branches and vines.

The light of his flashlight seemed to open up an independent space in this dark damned place.People are behind the light, and outside the light is an unknown world. It is the first time to explore the spirit alone, but it is really deserted as expected.

The BaN pig bones on the backpack made a crisp sound when they rubbed against each other, and the cinnabar strings on the wrist were particularly conspicuous in the night. Xie Jin carefully scanned the surrounding situation and began to adjust the camera position.

There were still dozens of people scattered in the live broadcast room, none of which was as popular as the team at the peak of that year, and most of them came here specially to scold Xie Jin and watch jokes.

"Good evening everyone, it's 7:30 in the evening, I'm going to enter the park." Xie Jin's thin face appeared in the live broadcast room. Because of the poor lighting and the old mobile phone model, his face was a little blurry. .

The black fans who had been secretly trying to do something saw this face after such a long time, and they started to get restless. Some people started to rhythm in the live broadcast room:

"You're so old, and you're still learning from young people to explore the spiritual circle? You're not afraid to risk your life."

"That's right, I paid attention to the pioneer of spirit exploration for the sake of the anchor's appearance. What is this now, a down-and-out uncle with a pointed mouth and monkey face?"

These malicious comments kept scrolling and refreshing. Although Xie Jin pretended to be invisible on the surface, he silently switched to the front camera and pointed the lens forward.

After all, out of sight, out of mind, hope that the water friends in the live broadcast room can focus on the process of spiritual exploration after they can't see him.

Under the strong remote light of Xie Jin's flashlight, the main entrance of the abandoned amusement park appeared in Xie Jin's line of sight. Just below the mottled red wall was an iron door painted blue, which was already rusted.

The iron gate was locked with thick chains, and Xie Jin couldn't get in, so he had to find another way.

He looked aside and was taken aback by what suddenly appeared in front of him - it was a stone lion covered with moss, staring fiercely at him, the uninvited intruder.

The wall behind the stone lion is also painted with the same hideous face, Xie Jin stabilized his slightly trembling wrist, and explained to the fans in the live broadcast room: "This may not be the main entrance of the amusement park, or it may be a facility like a haunted house."

Otherwise, who would have thought that the entrance of the amusement park would be so terrifying that it would make children cry? .

With the shaking of the lights, Xie Jin always had the illusion that the stone lion was turning his head to look at himself. He continued to walk up and saw a stone gate. White mist poured into the stone gate frantically, and it looked extraordinarily strange under the light of the lights. .

Xie Jin remembered the fantasy novels he had read, and always felt that the beam of light behind the stone gate, which was illuminated by his flashlight, was very much like the road leading to Huangquan.

Out of an instinctive reaction, he couldn't help but shuddered. People really had to obey the old man. If this matter had been put on hold two years ago, he would have been the first person to rush in.

But now it's different, the team is disbanded, and he is the only one here, Xie Jin knows that he can't be as hasty as before.

He dug out the incense and paper money from his backpack, briefly worshipped at the stone gate, lit a cigarette and stuck it in the soil, reciting the secret of warding off evil spirits in his heart.

After doing this, Xie Jin walked behind the stone gate, and he glanced at the real-time scrolling barrage - as expected, there are always people with yin and yang in the live broadcast room.

"Tsk tsk tsk, if I had known about burning incense and worshipping, I'm afraid the pioneers would not be disbanded because of that incident."

"What's the matter? The melon from two years ago, wait online."

"That's right, he has to wait until he is killed to learn to be smart. He is an indirect murderer!"

Maybe those people scolded it too badly, and some old fans with a neutral attitude couldn't stand it. They hosted justice for Xie Jin in the live broadcast room: "Why do you say that Xie Jin is a murderer? He is also a victim, okay?"

"The victim will be banned for two years? Who would believe it? It's not clear that he did it. The murderer who led to the disbandment of the team should just die!"

"Why are you talking like this? Your mouth is too unethical!"

"..."

Seeing that the two sides were arguing more and more fiercely, Xie Jin could only speak out to try to divert their attention: "I'm in the park now. This is a very deep corridor, and the flashlight can't reach the end."

The end of the corridor was still shrouded in a cloud of mist, and looking at it from a distance, it seemed that there was an invisible person standing there, looking at him silently.

Xie Jin walked forward slowly, always feeling that a large shadow flashed over his head. He raised his hand to look upwards, and saw dense branches coiled on the pillars on the top of the corridor. , If you don't look carefully, you will think it is a snake hanging upside down.

Surrounded by a huge number of branches, it would make him feel like he was walking in the belly of a thousand-year-old Dryad.

After moving forward for a few more minutes in this environment, Xie Jin felt that there were countless eyes hidden in the darkness behind the branches, staring at him intently.

The overly sensitive physique made it very uncomfortable for him to stay here. There was an exit on the side, and Xie Jin went out of the corridor without hesitation.

There were fitness equipment welded on the open space at the exit of the corridor. Xie Jin carefully avoided the rotting debris on the ground, and then looked up again, and vaguely saw a white figure not far ahead.

The barrage also began to boil with his discovery, and the number of people in the live broadcast room rose to more than 500 in a short time. Xie Jin glanced at the soaring numbers, gritted his teeth and walked forward.

With the light of the flashlight, a pale-faced Maitreya Buddha appeared in the night, and it was still smiling miserably, making Xie Jin hairy behind him.

He circled around the apparently cut corners Buddha statue, which was made of plastic with bricks stuffed behind it, apparently a hollow Buddha.

"How can there be a Buddha statue in the amusement park, it's a bit strange..." Xie Jin muttered in a low voice, and an enthusiastic netizen immediately answered this question for him.

"I'm a local, and the anchor also knows that this amusement park is haunted. These Buddha statues were brought here by the villagers for the sake of warding off evil spirits." The netizen named Bakuba Egg Milk said on the bullet screen.

Town evil? These shoddy Buddha statues suddenly look like very evil things.

Although Xie Jin didn't know what the villagers who moved in these Buddha statues thought, he thanked the netizen who was willing to actively interact with him, and continued to walk deeper.

After walking a few more steps inside, there is indeed a place similar to an offering platform, where there is a second Buddha, a pale-faced Guanyin.

Xie Jin didn't stay here too much. His senses were terrifying. Since he saw the first Buddha just now, his body began to feel uncomfortable. This shows that this place is extremely evil and not suitable for long stay.

Forty minutes have passed since he started broadcasting, and the number of viewers in the live broadcast room has soared to 10,000. This is undoubtedly the best interview answer sheet for the company.

He can be fearless when acting with the rest of the team, but now that he is alone in this creepy place, Xie Jin even hesitates.

Walk? Still not going?

If you leave, life will soon be over. It is hard to find a company that is willing to sign with him. Xie Jin doesn't want to waste this opportunity.

So he only struggled for half a minute, then he chose the former, Xie Jin bit the bullet and moved on.

Just a few steps forward, Xie Jin heard the sound of the iron chain "creaking" in front of the right, like the sound of the iron lock swing that carries heavy objects.

At this time, the fog was full of fog and there was no wind around, but Xie Jin suddenly felt a chill under his feet, and he accelerated his pace and rushed over.

I saw a tire swing covered with moss, moving without wind, and in front of it was a pool of stagnant water, and several abandoned cruise ships were scattered on the water.

Xie Jin barely recognized from the fog that it was a cluttered bamboo forest. Bamboo forest's yin nature, coupled with his increasingly uncomfortable body, he judged that this place should be considered a paradise in the true sense.

"Anchor anchor, I saw a ghost, it's a black humanoid fog!"

At the same time, Xie Jin's live broadcast room seemed to explode, and everyone also said that they also saw a ghost that flashed by.

Xie Jin's scalp was numb in an instant, and he also felt an evil spirit rushing towards him. The body instinctively covered with white sweat, and every hair of Xie Jin was even screaming, standing upright and trembling.

His body is clamoring to leave here faster than his mind. He can see unclean things, but it doesn't mean he has the ability to deal with them.

In the past, when the Spirit Explorer was still around, there was a friend in the team who had been a Taoist priest for three generations, but now that he is alone, it is definitely not possible to confront him, or hiding is the best policy.

At the moment when he figured it out, Xie Jin turned around and ran away, but he was completely lost in the fog. He fled up the lake and ran forward with his unusual perception ability.

He didn't bother to look back to see if the so-called ghost figure had caught up, but judging from his years of experience and the hair on his body, there must be something else approaching him.

Soon Xie Jin realized a problem. It was a downhill road all the way he came here, but he had been running on a flat road for so long, and he felt a chill in his heart. In this situation, he was 100% lost.

Anxious in his heart, Xie Jin strayed into a piece of mud due to distraction. He slipped on the sole of his foot and fell into the putrid mud.

When people are in extreme panic, they usually scream subconsciously, but Xie Jin didn't scream out. When he felt that the thing he had been chasing was close at hand, he was covered by a hand stretched out from behind him out of thin air.

A deep voice deliberately lowered the volume and said in his ear: "Shh, don't bark."

Xie Jin's first reaction was that talking can't be a ghost, but in the next second, he saw the thing that made his scalp tingle rush out of the white mist.

It was a large cloud of black mist, and there were countless small shadows swimming in the black mist. Looking carefully, those small shadows swimming back and forth were hideous human faces.

That cloud of black mist had no substance, probably because it had swallowed too many human faces. Compared with it, Xie Jin was like a small ant on the ground.

It moved its huge body, as if it was looking for something. Xie Jin knew that he was looking for himself.

"Don't make a sound, follow me slowly." The person behind him spoke again, Xie Jin couldn't see his appearance, so he could only nod obediently to show that he understood.

The man led Xie Jin back into the fog slowly, until he left the muddy field, the black fog didn't realize that Xie Jin was no longer there.

After repeatedly confirming the safety, Xie Jin hurriedly looked at his poor old mobile phone. The mobile phone was covered in mud and exuded a rancid smell. Not to mention the termination of the live broadcast, it had automatically shut down a long time ago.

"...You, who are you?" Although extremely distressed, Xie Jin had no choice but to pick up the flashlight and shine it on the person who saved him.

He originally thought it would be a villager living nearby or a homeless man borrowing here, but he never expected that the other party would be a young man.

The whole body of the young man was complete except for a pair of trousers, and his rotten top was almost negligible. He looked much more embarrassed than Xie Jin.

"Is this how you repay your savior?" The young man tore off the cloth on his chest, "Do you know how dangerous that thing was just now, if you are caught by it, you will die."

Xie Jin found a dry place to sit down, the long-term nervous tension and the crazy escape just now made him feel more and more old and his body was failing.

"That..." Taking a little breath, he asked the young man very strangely, "You, are you familiar with this place?"

The young man didn't speak, he circled around Xie Jin who was sitting on the ground, then suddenly leaned over and poked the man's arm lightly, and asked a question that Xie Jin couldn't understand: "Are you human?"

Although Xie Jin was confused, he still nodded sincerely, and he replied in a low voice, "Yes, I'm not a ghost."

"You are not, but I am." The young man squatted beside Xie Jin and tilted his head to look at him, "But why did I meet you? It shouldn't be common sense."

Now it was Xie Jin's turn to be silent again, he stared at the young man who was close at hand with dull eyes, a little confused.

What is the situation now? He had just narrowly escaped death when he bumped into a ghost in human skin, and the ghost saved his life?

"You...you say you are a ghost?" Xie Jin stretched out his hand tremblingly, and after hesitating again and again, he poked at the young man's forehead—it was even higher than his body temperature as a living person, and he could even touch the entity.

Xie Jin was shocked, he quickly stepped back and fell to the ground, almost blurting out: "Then what was that just now?"

"That one is called the evil spirit, which is born of the strange energy of the mountains and the resentment of people, and it will devour human souls." The young man stood up and pulled Xie Jin up from the ground, "If you want to survive, you must leave here before the time comes , otherwise even I won’t be able to save you.”

Zishi is the most cloudy moment, Xie Jin naturally understands this truth, he looked around surrounded by thick fog, and then looked at the ghost in front of him, he didn't know what to do for a moment.

"Well, do you know the way to get out of here?" By accident, Xie Jin's mind suddenly became hot, and he blurted out the thoughts in his mind, "Can you, help me."

The young man suddenly grinned at Xie Jin, he squatted down in front of Xie Jin, showing a pair of sharp canine teeth: "Why do you think I will help you instead of harming you?"

Xie Jin was choked by these words, he stammered and couldn't control his tongue anymore: "I, I don't know, you saved my life, it seems that you are not the same as that demon."

"Of course it's different. It devours all living things it sees, and I rely on the essence of heaven and earth to make a living. I'm a good ghost in essence."

The young man supported his chin with his elbow, and looked up and down Xie Jin with a pair of black eyes, "You are all this age, how can you be so naive?"

After he saw Xie Jin's expression, the young man sighed helplessly, "Okay, I can help you out, but there is one condition."

"... under what conditions?"

"Let me be possessed." The young man didn't beat around the bush, and stated his purpose bluntly, "I can't escape with my own strength, I need you."

Xie Jin had always been on guard against the youth, and when he heard that there were additional conditions, he almost struggled to leave.

"You listen to me first, and it's not too late to leave?" The young man leaned back and sat on the dry ground, he turned his head and suggested to Xie Jin, "It's foggy now, you can only walk by yourself. I was caught by that thing because I got lost, but it won't happen with me. I have lived here for so long, so I naturally know the route."

Possessed?

Xie Jin subconsciously shook his lips. He remembered some of the past memories that had been buried deep in his heart. He subconsciously wanted to refuse, but the young man was still beside him.

"It doesn't matter to me, but you, a human being, are wandering here when the yin qi is the heaviest, is it really okay? You only need me to pull you to possess the body, but I won't have any emergencies. Helped me out, eh?"

The white fog around him became more and more intense, and even if it was a face-to-face distance between one person and one ghost, in Xie Jin's view, the young man's face began to blur.

The young man looked around, his expression seemed to be a little serious, but when he saw Xie Jin still did not respond, he urged again: "You are telling me the truth, even if I continue to linger, I may not be able to find a way to leave, you want to die. Is it here?"

From time to time, a few black shadows flashed through the thick fog, which were the ghosts split from the main body, still looking for the trace of Xie Jin.

Xie Jin was urged by the youth, and he was stunned to break free from the shackles of the memory control. He saw that the youth should be really anxious, and even the black cat in his pocket was constantly struggling to issue a warning.

It's not the way to stay here any longer, Xie Jin had to grit his teeth and agree to the other party's proposal: "Okay, then, please take me out of here..."

Ji Duan: I called him uncle on purpose

Xie Jin: How did he know my age?
