Chapter 39: The Hidden Truth?
"According to Zhang Cripple, Xu Chong was directly cut off half of his head by Boss Chen, how can he still be alive."
Xia Qi shook his head, not agreeing with Leng Yue's thoughts, and then listened to him say:
"I think there are only two possibilities, and of course, both of them are a little creepy to think about."
Leng Yue put on a deferential posture and motioned for Xia Qi to continue.
The first possibility is that there is no such person as Xu Chong in Hulu Village, to put it bluntly, "Xu Chong" does not exist at all. "He" is just an illusion that exists in everyone's minds, or rather, he is just an illusion that exists in the minds of a limited number of people, such as Boss Chen.
In this way, Boss Chen thought they had killed Xu Chong, but in fact they killed a person who didn't exist at all. Therefore, it makes sense that the villagers of Hulu Village will not notice that there is one big living person missing. ”
"Xu Chong is a person who doesn't exist? Do you mean to say that Xu Chong is a ghost? ”
Leng Yue couldn't help but ask with doubts after hearing this.
"You think it's impossible?"
Xia Qi looked at Leng Yue with a pretended face at this time, looking like I don't want to say that my head is better than yours, and explained:
"Even though I don't know much about ghosts, I still have a sense of their strange abilities. This incident may be bizarre here, Xiaoli may not fall in love with a person but a ghost, and then look forward to Xu Chong, who does not exist, to take her away from Hulu Village, but this incident was learned by Hu Daniu and several people, and then to denounce "Xu Chong" to force Xiaoli to have a relationship with them, Xiaoli in order to protect her lover, she can only be willing to be humiliated, but I didn't expect this matter to be known by Boss Chen in the end, which led to the killing of "Xu Chong". ”
Speaking of this, Xia Qi's expression gradually became serious, and he looked at Leng Yue and said:
"Doesn't that sound a bit taken for granted and not at all logical?"
Leng Yue didn't speak, but the suspicion on his face was obvious, and seeing this, Xia Qi continued:
"Actually, at first glance it does seem very illogical, but if you look at it from a different angle, then it is much more reasonable.
If Xu Chong is a ghost, the reason why it is close to Xiaoli is actually to create a powerful ghost and then achieve some of its goals, is it much more reasonable?
Think about it, Xiaoli is a person who was abducted and trafficked by traffickers, and she may have suffered a lot of humiliation before she was sold to Hulu Village, and she has accumulated endless resentment in her heart, so she is a seed that is easy to be cultivated into a ghost.
Therefore, after Xu Chong found Xiaoli, he tried to confuse her, and then deliberately injected the illusion of "his" existence into Boss Chen, so as to inject new hope into Xiaoli first, and then through the hands of Boss Chen and a few others, they deprived this hope little by little, and finally completely pushed Xiaoli into the abyss of despair.
This also explains that Xiaoli, as the daughter-in-law of Boss Chen, didn't even dare to provoke Hu Daniu's henchmen, so where did Xu Chong, an ordinary villager, have the courage?
Moreover, Boss Chen is at home almost every day, how can Xiaoli go outside to find others under normal circumstances?
Do you think this is realistic? ”
Leng Yue did not express his position directly, but deliberately explained a problem:
"Not all ghosts have the ability to kill, just like the last time we possessed ghosts in Qihe Women's Academy, we can only rely on the power of other ghosts."
"Yes. It was only when I thought of the possessed ghost I met last time that I thought it was very likely. In addition, the contrast between Xiaoli and before and after is indeed too great, if it were as treacherous as it is now, it would not be so miserable. ”
"Well, what about the second possibility?" Leng Yue almost agreed with Xia Qi's analysis in her heart.
Xia Qi waved his hand to wipe the rain from his face and continued:
"The second possibility is that Xu Chong did exist before he was killed.
To put it simply, even after Xu Chong was killed by Boss Chen, he also became a ghost, and he still went home every day and was still seen by the villagers, so no one found out that it was actually dead.
Just taking reality into account, this is not very likely. ”
After giving an analysis of the two possibilities, Xia Qi also summarized his plan:
"This incident seems to me to be very similar to the last time I was at Qihe Women's College. Maybe in the beginning, the company sent us here just to deal with Xu Chong, a ghost who has no ability to kill.
It's just that this ghost is also very cunning, and he created Xiaoli, a powerful ghost, before we arrived. It not only preserves itself, but also successfully messes up our sight.
Let's firmly believe that Xiaoli is the ghost related to this incident.
This dead ghost is so cheap! ”
Speaking of which, Xia Qi did not forget to pretend to be serious:
"Yueyue, don't get me wrong, I didn't say you."
"Can you have some quality?" Leng Yue was also really speechless for Xia Qi.
"What is quality? You people can just pretend, don't I like to burst a few foul words, what's wrong? I didn't scold you, I didn't scold your family, I didn't even scold your dog, I can also be considered a slot? ”
Xia Qi's words choked Leng Yue speechless, and he also accepted it when he saw it, and talked about the topic again:
"It's clear what we're going to do next, and that's to get the damn thing out. We don't have the ability to deal with powerful ghosts, is it still difficult to deal with that kind of little deflated three ghosts?
But before that, we have to make sure that Xu Chong doesn't exist. ”
"If I can be sure that Xu Chong is a ghost, I think I should have a way to find it."
"How?"
"This kind of ghost thing obviously doesn't have the ability to possess people, at most it is just a means to confuse people, so its ability is not as good as the possessed ghost we encountered at Qihe Women's Academy.
In this case, even if it hides it, I can still find it if I open the eye of heaven. ”
Leng Yue said another sentence that looked better than coaxing in the summer.
"What is the eye of the sky? Are you Tianjin Rice? ”
"You want to eat?"
“……”
After that, Leng Yue probably said what the so-called "Sky Eye" was, to put it bluntly, it was a kind of magic that could see through illusions, but because of the limited mastery, Leng Yue's Sky Eye only belonged to the relatively low-end Sky Eye, and it was far from the level of seeing through all psychedelic abilities.
But no matter what, this is also a skill to deal with ghosts, Xia Qi itched uncontrollably in his heart after hearing this, after all, for now, the evil spirit physique he has is like.
Xu saw Xia Qi's yearning for magic, and Leng Yue rarely said a word of encouragement:
"Evil spirits are actually evil ghosts, and the level of evil ghosts is much higher than that of powerful ghosts, so the evil spirit physique you have is actually very terrifying. You're just not there yet. ”
"Then I'll borrow your good words."
Although Xia Qi didn't go out of his way to talk to Leng Yue about the evil spirit physique, some of his information had already been transmitted to Leng Yue in their chat without a word. But I don't know if he is too careful, or if Leng Yue is deliberately avoiding something, he always feels that Leng Yue is very sensitive to the four words "evil spirit physique".
