Chen Mo's incident was temporarily put aside by Shen Lin. Although this naughty kid's survival was mostly due to luck, he still survived at least.
The ability of the ghost curse is not as powerful as imagined. On the contrary, as long as the power of the ghost is not abused, the ghost curse itself is much more stable than ordinary ghosts, and its recovery will be much slower.
Shen Lin didn't get much information from Chen Mo. The boy still knew little about ghost controllers, so naturally he didn't pay attention to the ghosts consciously.
The ghost staircase is a big trouble, and Shen Lin is thinking about how to deal with it.
The headquarters is obviously also considering this. After learning about Shen Lin's feedback, they are considering how to deal with the incident.
The ghost staircase itself is not complicated, nor is it difficult to deal with. What makes people feel scary is that it can affect evil ghosts. This special point means that the ghost staircase incident will always be a comprehensive event involving the existence of multiple evil ghosts. It cannot be analyzed by ordinary theories. .
This made Shen Lin answer the call from the headquarters not long after returning to the hotel.
The operator is still Wu Qiu. She is currently Shen Lin's exclusive operator and has her own small office. Shen Lin is also very satisfied with this girl.
Able to do things, very smart, and don't talk nonsense.
"What happened? You are so anxious to find me?" Shen Lin asked directly. This kind of phone call was not a polite one. It is fastest to get straight to the point and understand the topic.
"Something happened in Longhu Courtyard." Wu Qiu's voice was trembling. Shen Lin had specially told her to pay attention to the ghost staircase incident, so she contacted Shen Lin as soon as the incident occurred.
This made Shen Lin's face darken. He expected that the ghost wouldn't be peaceful for long, but he didn't expect it to happen so quickly.
"The outbreak of ghost trouble? What level?" Shen Lin asked.
Wu Qiu refuted the question in Shen Lin's words, "No, it disappeared."
Disappeared? Shen Lin was slightly stunned.
"when?"
"I don't know. Chen Zuo and the others have been keeping an eye on it for the past two days. It wasn't until today that they discovered something was wrong. When I went to check, the entire Longhu Courtyard had returned to normal. The ghost should have disappeared long ago."
This situation made him unexpected. There was no way for the ghost itself to disappear unless it changed places.
The main ability of the ghost staircase is to absorb living people or ghosts, and then affect the ghosts. To what extent it can be affected, how many ghosts are around, and what kind of ghosts are all unclear.
It noticed something was wrong and moved its position?
This made a storm resound in Shen Lin's mind. If everything was as predicted above, then he had greatly underestimated the ghost.
Ghosts themselves have a certain degree of consciousness, and this consciousness generally acts on laws.
They themselves will consciously attract normal people to trigger the rules.
In the case of the knocker who started out with a mysterious resurgence, he will kill the poster, imitate ordinary people to post, and lure ordinary people to listen to the recording, triggering the pattern.
Later, the headless ghost also changed several heads and bodies in the mall to hide and seek with Yang Jian.
So in the subsequent Starving Ghost incident, the S-level ghost chose a certain strategy to seduce Xiao Yang because he was afraid of the coffin nails in Yang Jian's hands.
The top of this kind of ghost is human skin. It has a very high IQ and can compete with people like Yang Jian. They can even reveal certain information because they are afraid of Yang Jian's threats.
On this basis, some ghosts will have very high IQs after being exposed to human consciousness or the transformation of some kind of puzzle due to their own abilities.
A typical example of this kind of evil ghost is the newspaper ghost, who even planned a big plan to kill Yang Jian.
Shen Lin had reason to suspect that the Ghost Staircase might have acquired a certain consciousness after absorbing human consciousness or influencing a very special ghost.
This will be a world of difference.
This must be determined! Shen Lin said to himself in his heart that the danger level of the ghost staircase had once again increased several notches deep in his heart.
"Pay attention to the movements of the ghost stairs and remind me at any time. This is very important." After warning, Shen Lin planned to hang up the phone.
"Wait a minute, Shen Lin, something happened." The second before the call was hung up, Wu Qiu looked at the message on the phone and exclaimed.
"An incident broke out in Dongchuan City. It was suspected to be a ghost staircase. Xiang Jie, the person in charge of Dongchuan City, disappeared during the incident."
Shen Lin was shocked when he took action.
Among the ghosts around the ghost staircase, there is an upside-down ghost. It is a ghost in the concept of existence. Even Shen Lin can only rely on the special ability of ghosts to make negative things positive and avoid the rules.
At this stage, unless Mr. Qin from the headquarters takes action, no one can deal with this ghost, not even Yang Jian and Ye Zhen. Shen Lin is extremely sure of this.
"Xiang Jie must have fallen. The ghost staircase itself is very special. There is a very high-level ghost around it. It is almost unsolvable at this stage. Is there any movement at the headquarters?"
Wu Qiu felt terrified. As one of the people closest to Shen Lin, she knew Shen Lin's abilities best, and she also understood that Shen Lin had just escaped death in the ghost staircase incident.
Being called an unsolvable ghost by Shen Lin is definitely much more terrifying than the information on paper.
"The incident happened 3 hours ago. I got the news relatively late. There were three ghost masters near Dongchuan City. Team Zhao sent them a message and they were rushing to provide support." Wu Qiu transferred the information on his mobile phone Tell it all.
As an operator, she unconditionally trusts her ghost controller, especially this ghost controller is Shen Lin.
"Tell Zhao Jianguo the exact words I just told you. It's up to them whether they want to retreat or not." Shen Lin confessed in a deep voice.
He didn't intend to influence the decision of the headquarters. It's hard to persuade the damn ghosts. There are already enough ghosts around the ghost staircase. Even if these few are trapped in it, the ghosts' resurrection will not add much benefit to the ghost staircase incident itself. .
"Okay, I will tell him exactly what he said. In order to convince him of this, I will play your phone recording for him." Wu Qiu said cautiously.
Shortly after hanging up, Shen Lin's phone rang again. His phone had been very busy since the Longhu Courtyard incident.
The caller was a doctor from the hospital. Before returning to the hotel, Shen Lin specifically told him to contact him at any time if anything happened and left his phone number.
The hurried call made Shen Lin feel something sinister, and he picked it up without hesitation.
"Doctor An, I am Shen Lin."
"Mr. Shen, something is not right about Li Meng. You'd better come to the hospital."
An Yimin's voice sounded a little anxious. He had seen a lot of illnesses, big and small, in his career, but this was the first time he saw Li Meng being so weird.
There are obviously vital signs, but there is no consciousness. There is obviously no consciousness, but there is the ability to process physiological information.
"Okay, Dr. An, I'll be there soon." Shen Lin agreed, no nonsense, Li Meng was his best friend, and he was obliged to do so.
In order to facilitate Shen Lin's everything, Chen Zuo also stayed in this hotel, in the next room.
Shen Lin woke him up. His understanding of cars was limited to bumper cars, so he needed a driver.
Chen Zuo worked hard and refused to complain, and agreed.
The hotel they chose was very close to the hospital, and there wasn't much traffic when driving at midnight. Departure and arrival only took two minutes.
"Dr. An, what happened?"
An Yimin had been waiting outside the ward, and when he saw Shen Lin's arrival, he quickly stood up to greet him.
In response to Shen Lin's inquiry, he opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to describe it accurately, so he simply shifted his position and asked Shen Lin to see it himself.
Through the glass of the intensive care unit, Shen Lin clearly saw everything about Li Meng lying on the bed.
His cheeks, which were still rosy at noon, turned a little blue and black for some inexplicable reason, and the skin not covered by the hospital gown also looked as pale as a corpse. His nails were a little slender and were gradually turning blue and black, just like a People are subtly transforming into corpses.
"We discovered this not long ago. His appearance is very similar to that of a person who has been dead for more than 24 hours. What's strange is that we carefully checked his vital signs and found that everything was as usual, except for being a little puffy. He is in excellent health." Dr. An introduced what they knew and heard in detail, but did not provide a solution.
Shen Lin did not blame him. This was not the field of medicine, but the field of ghosts.
He originally had a glimmer of hope, but now it seems that Li Meng himself has been extremely seriously eroded by the ghost staircase.
"Open the door, I'll go in and take a look, you guys stay outside." Shen Lin warned, there are many ways to corrode evil ghosts, the most likely possibility is to become a ghost slave, he didn't want to cause trouble and let Chen Zuo and others stay outside the door. Going outside is the best choice.
Entering the ward, the smell of disinfectant was everywhere. Because Li Meng could not eat, the hospital chose to give him intravenous glucose and nutrient solution to maintain his physical condition. This is not a long-term solution, but it is the only way now.
Shen Lin tried to get closer and found that Li Meng had no weird movements, so he boldly moved forward.
After all, he was the one who brought Li Meng out. Since it wasn't too weird at the beginning, it won't be too weird now.
Shen Lin tried to touch Li Meng, but found that the other person's body temperature was about the same as his. This was not a good sign. It showed that in a sense, Li Meng was no longer a normal person.
After looking through it again and again and finding no clues, Shen Lin frowned.
He tentatively stretched out his hands on Li Meng's head, using the ability of the Upside Down Ghost.
The ghost form itself is very restrictive, and the ability to reverse ghosts only exists in concept.
This also results in the ability of the reverse ghost obtained by ghost transformation to be very weak and incomplete.
It can be used to fight against the Upside Down Ghost and evade the rules, but if you want to transform survival into withering in its hands, it is almost impossible.
However, Li Meng had just had his attack not long ago, and his symptoms were quite mild for Li Gui, so Shen Lin thought he could try it.
As expected, the condition of Li Meng's head gradually returned to normal, and Shen Lin breathed a sigh of relief.
it works!
He stripped off his hospital gown, and his ability to conjure ghost images was too incomplete. Weird things would happen if he wasn't careful with other things.
Under the influence of the Upside Down Ghost, Shen Lin seemed to see Li Meng return to normal through distortion, and his entire body transformed from corpse-like blue-black to the ruddy color of a normal person.
Wait, there is something!
Shen Lin frowned. There was a small, blood-red tattoo on Li Meng's back, about where his spine was.
The overall tattoo is in the shape of a staircase, and there seem to be all kinds of weird patterns gathering on top of the steps. If you look closely, you will find that it seems to be a picture of mountains and rivers.
Ghost stairs! Shen Lin was shocked!
