This was not the first time Luo Binhan heard the dead speak. Before that, not counting Zhou Yu who was shown to him by Lu Fu, he had also seen Fake with only one head left in his hometown. At that time, Fake's head was hung on the stairs leading to the second floor of the Bajixiang Crematorium, hanging upside down by hanging wires. From a distance, it looked like a giant domed light bulb.
At that time, it was the first time Luo Binhan saw a dead head that was complete, fresh and completely separated from the body. He vomited cooperatively and let Zhou Yu, a professional, check it out alone. He knew very little about the subsequent developments, but one thing was certain: he knew that the person who hung the head there was Jing Huang.
He had various conjectures about that past event. On that night full of magic and weirdness, he and Zhou Yu were accidentally chased by a hound with a strange smile and escaped into the crematorium said to be Fake's residence. They found four Farkes there - at least four, that's all Luo Binhan could say. He fainted when he saw the three Fake confronting Jing Huang, but that had nothing to do with shock or fear. In all likelihood, he was knocked unconscious by Jing Huang, or else it was Fake. At that time, he didn't know that Fake was from Wuyuan, nor did he know why he and Jing Huang were in conflict. However, when he woke up, the two of them got along pretty well - they talked to each other and Zhou Yu passed on the message. To the other side, it’s as if Zhou Yu is incompatible with airborne transmission.
Before that incident happened, Luo Binhan had been claiming to everyone around him that Jing Huang was his distant relative. He can flexibly adjust his explanations to different people: when he meets relatives and friends of the Luo family, he declares them to be relatives on the maternal line; when he meets relatives and friends of the Yu family, he declares them to be relatives on the paternal line; when he meets Zhou Yu, he does not need to explain too much - He could even put Jing Huang directly into Zhou Yu's house to stay, and Zhou Yu, who was used to seeing him being pestered by relatives from all walks of life, would not say a word more. But when Jing Huang created a green star storm in the crematorium, even a friendly person like Zhou Yu couldn't fool him. He had no choice but to tell everything he knew about Jing Huang.
He confessed to Zhou Yu about the strange insect-carved stones he had brought back from abroad, as well as the fly-headed aliens he had attracted as a result, and ended up with them quickly escaping from the destroyed ecological reserve. Luo Binhan never knew how Jing Huang brought his sports car back later. He had no evidence to prove the authenticity of his experience, but Zhou Yu believed it without any doubt. Luo Binhan didn't want to think too much about it, but he suspected that his girlfriend's disappearance had some impact on Zhou Yu's atheism. Zhou Yu accepted Jing Huang's identity as an alien visitor extremely easily, and then continued to live as if nothing had happened, investigating the disappearance of his girlfriend.
Luo Binhan once watched these two people sitting at the same table eating, talking about dialects and myths and legends. For a while, Jing Huang even used Zhou Yu's mobile phone to communicate with him. Is that a reasonable development? Because Zhou Yu can accept dead people, he can also accept aliens. Anyway, aliens will become dead sooner or later? If that was really Zhou Yu's logic, Luo Binhan wouldn't be surprised. He always felt that Zhou Yu was very deviant from common sense in some subtle ways, some kind of seemingly normal abnormality, like him who had almost no experience in Lihai City. The famous doctor father who stayed there.
But Luo Binhan never had such strong feelings in the past. He once thought that aliens and ghosts were roughly the same thing and had nothing to do with him. But it was different now. He found that he could accept aliens jumping on his face, but not dead aliens. He did not accept dead aliens even more than male aliens.
The cause of his epiphany was Bang Bang. The voice calling itself Bang Bang in the wind, when Luo Binhan said, "I thought you were dead," not only did it not refute, but it actually admitted it with a stutter.
"Oh, I think so too...I don't know...but, I thought death was not like this..."
"Where are you?" Luo Binhan asked. He had already doubted the integrity of his sanity at this time, so he chose to express all his thoughts with his mouth, so that Assabam could suffer together - he meant to let Assabam supervise his mental state to prevent him from engaging in unintentional dangerous behavior.
Asabam still frowned. Luo Binhan guessed that she couldn't hear Ghost Bangbang, and that made him even less optimistic about his mental condition.
"I don't know, Lo...I feel like I'm everywhere, but I can't see anything...Oh, this feels really bad, but I feel you near me...Can you help me?"
Luo Binhan felt his scalp and back spasming slightly. He anachronistically thought of many traditional ghost stories, most involving an ungrateful good Samaritan. But Bangbang is not a bad person. They have had a pleasant time together. He has reason to sympathize with this cute and unlucky foreign student. And he also knew - deep down he couldn't deny this - that Bang Bang was where he was now because of him. Is not it? The unlucky book predicted that he would meet Assabamu, and his destined bad luck also involved Bangbang. If he hadn't had the urge to see the giant pelican, they would all be staying on the Silence now.
"Okay." Luo Binhan said, "I'll try my best to do what I can, okay? But I have to figure out the current situation. What do you remember?"
What he wanted to ask about was Bang Bang's "afterlife", but Bang Bang obviously didn't understand his intention, and instead started from the earliest place - he first talked about the disappearance of his mentor Finlatan, and then boarded the Silence No., was taken to Asabam by the pelican. These details, some of which even Luo Binhan had a vague impression of, seemed to confirm that the voice was indeed Bang Bang. And the last thing that Ghost Bangbang could remember was that they came out of the shadowy place and were surrounded by many star-like monsters. In the chaos, he was thrown at the feet of a certain star monster. He tried to escape, but ended up frozen in place due to excessive tension. He saw fire and stars falling toward him, and his body seemed to melt in the light.
After that, he felt that he was completely free from the shackles of matter, floating freely like a gust of wind. He could no longer see anything, like a blind man walking in the dark, but in fact he couldn't even see black, just a wandering spirit. Until another spirit appeared in his perception - not sight, touch, smell or hearing, just like the water being separated by the rocks. It felt that it had changed due to "hitting" something, and that thing was Luo Binhan .
"It's amazing," Ghost Bang Bang said. "It's like we have some kind of soul connection."
"We didn't." Luo Binhan said haggardly, "We have to find a way to...well, resurrect you, right? But first we have to figure out what happened to you. It sounds like you may not really be dead. "
"Oh, you're right... I wish I were alive too."
"Can you keep talking to me like this? No matter where I go?"
"Are you moving? Oh, are you still in that place with glowing clouds everywhere? Have those star monsters been dealt with?"
This series of problems is too far away from the status quo. Luo Binhan considered how much he should explain to this ghost Bangbang. But then his overcrowded brain had another visitor. Upsilon greeted him with a cheerful voice.
"Ah, connected, connected! Finally, I have enough energy again! How is your condition now, Mr. Zhou Yu?"
