"To be honest, the reason why we came to this bell tower to look for someone is to understand the nature of this spirit." The middle-aged man smiled kindly, "My surname is Luo, you can just call me Lao Luo."
"Lao Luo, what is Lingxi?" Xiaolan asked first.
"Lingxi is the space that is separated from the real world due to this obsession after the death of a living person, which is the world we currently exist." Lao Luo explained patiently, not at all like the one who just shouted about beating his son. Lao Luo, "In fact, Lingxi generally refers to the spiritual abilities possessed by living people after death. However, the formation of such a special world is the manifestation of the spiritual energy of most deceased people, so we generally call this kind of existence Lingxi." .”
In this way, the spirit tide in their mouth is almost the same thing as the world.
However, compared to the Taoist priest's introduction, the explanations given by the professionals were much more logical.
Chi Miao thought she had met an expert, and was so moved that she almost cried. Before Lao Luo could ask her about Lingxi, she spat out the question as if it were beans.
"Master Master, if we die here, will we return to reality, or will we die together in reality?"
"How are we going to get back?"
"What kind of soul is this? It belongs to my friend. It was formed after my friend died. Why can't I find my friend here?"
Old Rothman raised his hand gently to interrupt, "We will explain these things slowly later. Girl, everyone's soul is different. The most important thing now is that we need to understand the operating rules of this world from you. Only then can we come up with a way to break the tide.”
Chi Miao and Xiao Boyu looked at each other in confusion.
"But we don't understand the operating rules..."
"Oh," Luo Jiutian asked impatiently, "Let me ask you, what were you afraid of when we came here, and who were you hiding from?"
It dawned on them.
"Someone is killing people here. People die every day!"
Hearing Chi Miao's words, Xiaolan looked at Bai Yunqi. He seemed to be thinking about his sister. He lowered his head and looked like he didn't want to talk or listen.
"How to kill someone?"
"I don't know... we have never seen a murderer, and we have only seen the body once," Chi Miao pointed to the outside of the building, "These are what Xiaosong's text message told us, and the strange thing is that after dying here, After a while the bodies will disappear.”
Xiao Boyu nodded, "That's why we wonder if we can go back after dying here."
"Are they Xiaosong, Brother Hei and Good-for-nothing Xu?" Xiaolan asked.
"Yes," Chi Miao looked at Xiaolan in surprise, "They say ghosts kill people every day."
"Now that you have met your companions, why didn't you act together?" Xiaolan questioned, "Don't they know it's dangerous here?"
"They are a bit..." Chi Miao said awkwardly, "How should I put it, a bit xenophobic, maybe a bit fierce, even though they told us these things... what we have to do is different, the three of them... it seems that they want to What you do..."
Bai Yunqi seemed to have remembered something, "There are three of them, two boys and one girl. One of the two boys is very thin and the other is very dark. The black one is stronger."
Chi Miao looked at Bai Yunqi a little shyly, "Have you seen them? You...are you from our school too?"
Xiaolan looked at Chi Miao's appearance and sighed in her heart that Luo Jiutian was right. The essence of this world is to judge people by their appearance.
"It's them," Bai Yunqi clenched his fists excitedly, "They were the ones who refused to take us in the night we first arrived. If they had taken us in, Yuxuan might..."
It started again and again. Xiaolan thought unsympathetically, how are they going to take you in? Are five people sleeping in one room?
"Who is Yuxuan? Is she your girlfriend?" Chi Miao approached Bai Yunqi with bright eyes.
"It's my sister."
"What's wrong with her..."
Bai Yunqi was forced to tell Chi Miao and Xiao Boyu about the tragic past again. Xiaolan couldn't listen any more. When she saw Lao Luo and Luo Jiutian talking in a low voice, she quickly left them behind to eavesdrop.
"Sure enough, nothing they said is of any use..."
"You can't say that. At least it provides us with ideas. First we need to find a body."
Xiaolan squinted at the father and son, "Is this a pervert?"
"Hey, little girl, you're here, what do you think?"
"I have no experience," Xiaolan spread her hands, "How do you professionals usually deal with this?"
Luo Jiutian lowered his voice, "Actually, under normal circumstances, no matter how much you listen to what others say, it's not as useful as seeing it yourself..."
"Um."
"So we think we need to see the body to make a more reliable judgment."
Xiaolan turned her head to look at the three people who were huddled in sadness, and then turned her head back.
"I think so."
The three of them hit it off immediately and prepared to brainwash the remaining three unsuspecting people.
Bai Yunqi covered his face and sighed. Chi Miao patted him on the shoulder, with uncontrollable distress in his eyes.
"By the way, Chi Miao," Xiaolan asked, "You and Mingya are best friends. Did she tell you about the boy she was looking for before he disappeared?"
"Mingya didn't talk about him in detail, she just mentioned it briefly. They all like rock music, and boys have quite a personality," Chi Miao said. "Hongchen knows better. Mingya doesn't like talking about men with me."
Well, Xiaolan looked at Chi Miao's nymphomaniac look and thought, I probably know why.
Luo Jiutian looked around. It was completely dark at this time, and there was something indescribably strange and gloomy inside the dark bell tower.
"Um...Chi Miao, have you always stayed in this bell tower?"
"That's right," Chi Miao sighed softly, "Lao Xiao and I's mobile phones have long been out of battery, and we haven't brought our watches yet, so we just stay here and still have some sense of time."
Xiao Boyu added: "And we have never encountered dead people here. We haven't seen anyone else come before you. We feel very safe."
Xiaolan looked at her watch and asked curiously, "Does this clock tower ring on the hour?"
Chi Miao and Xiao Boyu looked at each other and nodded together, "Yes."
"It's seven forty-five now," Xiaolan showed her watch, "Has any of you heard the seven o'clock bell?"
Everyone recalled together, and then shook their heads together.
"No."
"Maybe the clock is broken?" Chi Miao said, "The clock tower is so broken, so it is normal for the clock to be inaccurate."
"But the six o'clock clock rang on time," Xiaolan said, "we all heard it."
"did not hear."
"did not hear."
"did not hear."
"It was still far away from the bell tower at that time." Bai Yunqi hinted.
Xiaolan completely ignored their words and looked at her watch insistently.
"Why did the clock break after just one hour?"
Before they could figure out the reason, Luo Jiutian's shout attracted their attention.
"Ah, I know! Why did I feel something strange just now?" Luo Jiutian pointed upward, "There are fluctuations in the tide above, we have to go up and take a look!"
