Hearing Feifei say this, Shen Xing was a little confused: "Why?"
"How about I close the bedroom door." Feifei said again, without answering him directly.
Shen Xing's guess at this moment was that Feifei felt that she had grown up and should have her own private space, so she didn't want to be disturbed while sleeping.
Thinking about it this way, it makes sense.
He nodded: "Okay, but you have to put the pager I bought for you next to the bed. If you want to call me for anything, just press it."
As early as three months ago, he bought Feifei this pager, which can carry out signal transmission calls within a certain distance. This makes it easier to wake up Feifei quickly if something unexpected happens to Feifei when he sleeps too deeply at night. Own.
The other end of the beeper was placed next to Shen Xing's pillow, and if it was pressed, the sound would be loud enough to wake Shen Xing up.
It was still early. After Feifei went back to her room to read, Shen Xing told her and then went to the bar to meet Mou Ling.
This time Donghua Temple's arrest of Lu Yuan was full of dangers, exposing the secrets of the Yeyin organization that had never appeared in front of the special team. It was not until that time that they knew that these guys had been so deeply integrated with the anomaly that they even It has reached the point of direct ingestion.
This time it was Mou Ling who took the initiative to make an appointment with Shen Xing, and the place was the same bar that Mou Ling often went to.
After the two sat down, they chatted for a while, and soon changed the topic to the incident of encircling Ye Yin.
"I used my psychic powers to see that Lu Yuan at that time seemed to have fused the green dwarf into his own body, as if the two were one, and the characteristics of the dwarf were exerted through Lu Yuan's ordinary human body." Mou Ling recalled.
"Then have you noticed that it was Lu Yuan who took the initiative in this process, or the dwarf who had the control?" Shen Xing asked.
Mou Ling said: "It's Lu Yuan. I could feel that he could even make the dwarf disappear at any time. This is why Nashi, Guishou and Wu Nian couldn't discover the abnormality of the dwarf first. He used his own body, or other The object completely conceals the gnome's anomalous properties."
"It's that ring." Shen Xing said: "Of course, according to what you said, his body can also directly hide the green dwarf later, and it will have a more terrifying effect."
"How do you think this was done?" Mou Ling asked in confusion.
Shen Xing analyzed: "I'm guessing that Lu Yuan's method of controlling the dwarf should be the same as that of the immortal Yan Ye. They are both eating abnormally. But according to Zhou Dao, Yan Ye's method of devouring is more brutal and direct. And the combination of Lu Yuan and the dwarf's devouring tended to be a mild one."
After a pause, he continued: "Of course, both have very good effects. Not only can they enhance their lifespan, but they can also increase their use of abnormal characteristics almost unlimitedly. I just don't know what method Yan Ye uses to While consolidating my immortality, can I still have those characteristics without conflict, and won’t I be backlashed?”
Mou Ling said: "As you said, he is almost two hundred years old. Over such a long period of time, this guy must have developed a method of swallowing abnormalities without being counterattacked by his characteristics."
As soon as Mou Ling finished speaking, she saw Shen Xing suddenly froze for a moment and his expression changed.
"What's wrong?" Mou Ling asked, "Did you suddenly think of something?"
Shen Xing's expression was a little stiff, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses. He murmured to himself: "Swallowing a lot of characteristics without being counterattacked? Not being counterattacked? Damn it...it seems like I won't be counterattacked! Or, at least, there will be side effects. The effect is small, and after control with memetic value, the side effects are almost negligible.”
He suddenly had a feeling that Master Yan's research direction had the same effect as his own absorption of abnormal characteristics through wood carvings and then used them on himself? !
Otherwise, the two methods are essentially the same. After all, Shen Xing doesn't know what the premise is for Yan Ye to directly swallow the anomaly.
Will these anomalies be placed in a container similar to wood carvings in advance, wait for a period of time, and then be swallowed directly by him?
It seems that it is necessary to find a consultant to see where he can find Master Yan, or to find out what method Master Yan uses to swallow it.
"It's okay, I suddenly thought of a wood sculpture I sold during the day, and it seems that I received less money." Faced with Mou Ling's question, Shen Xing smiled.
Mou Ling smiled slightly: "My psychic told me that you seemed to be lying just now."
Shen Xing replied: "My special ability tells me that your psychic ability should also make mistakes sometimes."
Mou Ling shrugged and seemed to admit it: "Indeed, in the face of your impermanent ability, the psychic is really unable to accurately locate the position in one go."
Shen Xing asked curiously: "Who among you called me 'Impermanent'?"
"It seems to be Ding Wenying." Mou Ling recalled, "Oh, no, it's Zhou Dao."
"When I have a chance, I'll go and have a chat with his brain in a vat."
After the two talked for more than an hour, Shen Xing left early because he missed Feifei at home.
Mou Ling was very familiar with the bar. After Shen Xing left, she turned around and chatted with other friends she often saw.
Walking on the street, Shen Xing paid attention to the attribute values under his nose, and saw that the characteristic energy column had already exceeded 10,000 points. This was converted from the fear value absorbed by giving him a wood carving of his own deity in recent times.
Whether these fear points come from humans or anomalies, they are earning him money almost every day.
He immediately converted all this energy into spiritual antibodies, and roughly guessed the specific conversion ratio. The original 18-layer spiritual antibody increased to a little over 20 layers after the conversion.
Because it is difficult to increase mental antibodies, the conversion ratio is not very high. If the same amount of characteristic energy is converted into physical strength, it may be possible to increase the strength more.
Now Shen Xing knows that he needs to promote his wood carvings on a deeper level, such as using the sales of cat puppets to open markets in other states.
If one person buys it and it works, word of mouth will spread in the local area, attracting more people to buy.
However, one thing Shen Xing knew very well was that the bought wooden sculpture could not always absorb the fear of humans or anomalies, because anomalies might be scared away after seeing the wood sculptures, which would directly interrupt the source of the fear value.
But as long as there is something gained, no matter how much, it is earned.
After converting that part of the collected characteristic energy values, the energy value progress bar that had been reset to zero soon began to slowly +1, +1, +1 again...
Sometimes when someone is frightened by a woodcarving, the fear value will directly increase by 100 or more.
However, this situation is less common, because usually the abnormal induction is very strong. After they find something that frightens them, they will instinctively run away immediately, and they may not be continuously frightened by the wood carvings.
Of course, there are also non-level anomalies that are directly frightened to death by wood carvings.
Back home, Feifei had gone back to her bedroom to rest, and her bedroom door was closed.
After Shen Xing finished washing and went upstairs, Feifei's voice came from inside: "Uncle Shen, did you just go home?"
"Well, Feifei, are you still awake?" Shen Xing asked.
"Go to sleep after reading this chapter." The sound of turning pages came from the room.
After Shen Xing walked into his bedroom, Feifei's bedroom door suddenly opened a crack, her little head leaned to the door and looked at Shen Xing.
"Uncle Shen."
Shen Xing smiled and turned to look at her.
Feifei said: "Before you go to bed, remember to close your bedroom door first. I remember that you have to check the doors and windows every time you sleep."
Shen Xing smiled and nodded: "Okay, I remember, you are about to fall asleep."
After Feifei closed the door again, Shen Xing went to the studio and sculpted for more than an hour before returning to the bedroom and closing the door to sleep.
When I woke up this time, it was already bright.
After getting up, Shen Xing felt that her legs were slightly swollen and her neck was a little uncomfortable. She couldn't help but wonder if she had a stiff neck.
After twisting his body joints and shaking his head, he did not change out of his pajamas, but opened the bedroom door. He saw that Feifei's room door had already been opened, and she was not inside at the moment.
When I came downstairs, I saw Feifei sitting on the sofa. This girl did nothing, just sat upright, and the TV in front of her was not turned on.
"Are you up so early?" Shen Xing asked.
Feifei shook her head: "I got up at four o'clock in the morning."
"Ah!" Shen Xing said in surprise: "What are you doing up so early? Just sitting here all the time?"
Feifei didn't answer him, but raised her head and stared at him worriedly.
"What did you do?" Shen Xing sat next to her on the sofa and asked with concern: "Did something happen last night? Something unusual happened?"
Feifei shook her head and asked: "Uncle Shen, do you feel... uncomfortable somewhere? Or is there something wrong?"
Shen Xing was stunned for a moment, realizing that there was something behind her words, and couldn't help but ask: "What did you find last night?"
Feifei stretched out her index finger and pointed at him: "It's you. At almost four o'clock in the morning, I found you getting up."
"Have I ever gotten up?" Shen Xing was surprised.
Feifei nodded heavily: "Not only did you get up, you also opened your bedroom door. You came over to unscrew my bedroom door, and then I was woken up."
"Why do I have no memory at all?" Shen Xing looked at her in confusion, "Are you asleep? Or are you dreaming?"
Feifei did not deny it, nor did she think about defending. Instead, she still looked at him with a worried face: "You have gotten up and walked around after falling asleep more than once in the evening. Last time, my bedroom door was not closed. When I was woken up in the evening, I found You’re stroking my head.”
"Ah!?" Shen Xing was shocked, "How long did it take?"
"It was the night after you came back from your last trip." Feifei said, "You went out early the next day, and I didn't have time to tell you in such a short time."
Shen Xing lowered his head to think, and quickly asked: "What did I do last night? Why are you sitting on the sofa in the living room?"
Feifei said: "When you were outside twisting the door lock, I called Uncle Shen, but you didn't answer, but you stopped twisting the door lock. I heard your footsteps seem to have returned to your bedroom. .”
"Then I waited and found that there was no movement outside, so I opened a crack in the door and took a look. There was no light on in your bedroom, but I could see you standing in the bedroom, facing the wooden shelves. The wooden sculptures placed on top have not moved, as if they are being observed."
"How long have I been standing there?" Shen Xing asked with a frown.
"Well, about ten minutes or so." Feifei said: "Then you suddenly turned around and walked out of the bedroom, and I immediately closed the door. You didn't go to my bedroom anymore, but went along the corridor to the stairs. I opened the door, and then I found that you had gone downstairs. I stood at the door of the bedroom and waited for a while. After seeing that there was no movement downstairs, I followed you. "
At this point, Feifei's expression became slightly horrified: "After I came down, I found that you had been standing in the living room, facing the window, with your back to the direction of the stairs. You had been standing still, but it didn't look like you were looking out the window. It's night. I wanted to call you, but I was afraid that something might happen to you, so I didn't dare to say anything."
"After observing behind you for a few more minutes, I found that you might not move for a while, so I boldly walked in front of you from the side. Then I saw..." At this point, Feifei's face showed a smile. His expression was not only horrifying, but also had a hint of disbelief.
"I saw you crying." Feifei said fearfully: "I was frightened at the time because I found that your eyes were open. It didn't seem like you were sleepwalking. You just kept staring out the window and crying."
After listening to Feifei's description, Shen Xing looked heavy, and he probably already guessed why he behaved like this strangely.
It seems that when dealing with "who is he", I still neglected somewhere, resulting in not discovering the tail left by this high-level anomaly. I must have fallen into this guy's trick for some unknown reason.
After solving "who is he" before, Shen Xing was still wondering that this anomaly did not have a so-called sub-core weapon. Now it seems that even if the opponent does not have a sub-core weapon, there may be other unknown means to deal with it. of enemies.
He touched his cheek. No wonder he felt sticky and uncomfortable after getting up in the morning. It turned out to be the feeling after the tears had dried.
"Then what?" he continued to ask Feifei.
Feifei said: "I didn't dare to disturb you, so I quietly walked aside to observe. I found that you cried for a while, then turned and walked towards the stairs. But your walking method started to become very strange..."
Speaking of this, Feifei couldn't help but shudder.
In the past, when she encountered other more terrifying anomalies, she never felt scared just talking about them. And this time, because Shen Xing is the person closest to her, the strangeness conveyed from Shen Xing will further aggravate Feifei's perception of fear, making her feel more frightened than ever before.
"Your body was a little bent, and you raised your hands as if you were going to lie down on the ground, but you didn't do that." Feifei recalled with a pale face: "I felt like you were being hung up. .”
Her description reminded Shen Xing of the scene of "who is he" hanging upside down from the ceiling.
Although I was not a child under seven years old and could not see the scene at the time, my hands were raised and my body was slightly bent, which should be consistent with the posture of the body after being hung upside down.
"Then you went upstairs, returned to the bedroom, and closed the door directly." After narrating, Feifei looked at Shen Xing worriedly.
In fact, Shen Xing didn't feel anything strange in his body at this moment. His body control ability could perfectly control every bone, joint and muscle in the body. If the body did not belong to him at a certain moment, he believed that he would be able to detect it immediately. Arrived.
After pondering for a moment, Shen Xing comforted him: "Don't worry, it seems like this is a cyclical and gradual process, and I can't get that bad immediately. Please pay attention again tonight. If I get up again, pay attention to me." , or if there is anything unusual around my body, look carefully. Well, if necessary, videotape me throughout the process."
