spooky invasion

Chapter 116 Inheritance from the ancestors of Panshiling, bad news from Daxing City

The moment Jiang Yue stepped into the ancestral hall, he felt a feeling of stepping into another void.

When he reacted, the door of the lobby creaked and closed itself.

"Three Dogs?" Jiang Yue was startled, but the Three Dogs beside him didn't follow him in.

As if they had crossed a threshold, the two brothers actually stepped into two different parallel worlds, and they did not walk together.

For a moment, Jiang Yue was in doubt.

While thinking about it, the previous shadow appeared in the field of vision again.

grandfather?

Previously, Jiang Yue was very sure that it was Grandpa, but now, he was a little uncertain.

Grandpa has obviously passed away, and he has a very deep memory of this.Although he was young at that time, he saw his grandpa encoffined and moved into the coffin with his own eyes.

Jiang Yue was deeply impressed by this scene.

Then what happened to this person in front of him.

"Grandpa?" Jiang Yue called out again.

This figure was indeed Grandpa, his voice and smile were the same as back then, nothing changed at all, it was exactly as he remembered.

But this figure did not respond to Jiang Yue.

Walking up to Jiang Yue with a smile, he stretched out his hand gently, and patted Jiang Yue's head kindly twice.

In this situation, there is quite an image of a fairy caressing my head and receiving longevity.

Jiang Yue only felt a warm current pouring into his body.

Then, a strong sense of sleepiness surged through his body, and his upper and lower eyelids kept fighting.

Before he knew it, Jiang Yue fell into a deep sleep.

When Jiang Yue Youyou woke up, it was already bright outside.Panshiling clouds cleared and the fog cleared, but the morning sun remained.

Jiang Yue was in a trance, and hadn't recovered for a while.

It seemed that it was only midnight, but it seemed like I had experienced a big dream.

In this big dream, the figure of his grandfather was always by his side, whispering to him, admonishing him earnestly, teaching him carefully, and telling him his good and bad.

After waking up from a big dream, Jiang Yue obviously had a lot of information in his mind.

He, who originally lacked understanding of this strange world, has become much clearer.

Everything happened in a dream, but it was truly engraved deep in his memory.

Sure enough, the weirdness didn't start from this moment.

In fact, the weirdness has already begun to infiltrate this world a long time ago.

It's just that ordinary human beings have numb perception and can't detect that kind of slight variation.

Grandpa is not an ordinary person, and the Jiang family is not an ordinary family either.

In the dream, Jiang Yue learned that the Jiang family has always been the guardian of this world.Seemingly unknown, the mountain villager actually shoulders a heavy responsibility.

There are many families like the Jiang family in the entire Dazhang Kingdom.

Of course, in the dream, Grandpa didn't mention the specifics.

In this big dream, the main message that grandpa wants to convey to him is the history of changes in this weird world, and how to survive and deal with it in the weird situation in the future.

Obviously, even the extraordinary Jiang family still has great hesitation in the face of the weird situation.

Because, no one in this world can predict where the strangely invaded world will go, no one has experienced it, and no one can judge the final direction.

Of all fears, the fear of the unknown is the scariest.

In the dream, Grandpa also mentioned the Jiang family's ancestral hall.

Every plant, every tree, every brick and every tile of the Jiang family ancestral hall contains the painstaking efforts of the Jiang family ancestors.

Inside the ancestral hall, many magic circles are arranged to guard. Once the critical moment comes, the magic circle will be activated spontaneously when stimulated by the outside world.

Of course, these magic circles are all one-off.

Every time it is consumed, it means that the magic circle of the ancestral hall is reduced by one.

After all, when the weirdness did not invade, the spiritual power resources of the entire human world were pitifully small.The ancestors of the Jiang family also spent several generations of painstaking efforts to collect some spiritual objects and barely depict these magic circles in the ancestral hall.

And formations are precisely the things that consume the most spiritual energy.

Therefore, in the era of exhausted spiritual energy, it is conceivable how much painstaking efforts the ancestors spent to describe these magic circles.

Jiang Yue was somewhat ashamed. Last night, he spent a lot of his family wealth that his ancestors had spent countless efforts on.

The mural of a hundred birds facing the phoenix is ​​missing by a quarter.

What is missing is what is consumed.

Once consumed, it cannot be regenerated.Unless future generations can find spiritual objects, master the skills to describe the magic circle, and re-characterize the magic circle.

Of course, all these skills were instilled in Jiang Yue by his grandfather in his dream.

So, how to draw a magic circle, how to make a rune, how to manipulate a magic weapon, how to identify a spiritual object...

With such skills, Jiang Yue is no longer a rookie, but an expert.

After all, Jiang Yue's memory has fully absorbed the skills passed down from his ancestors.

Jiang Yue finally understood why his grandfather never deliberately taught him anything, and it was always just what he saw and heard in his daily life.

These things don't need to be taught at all.

What is needed is chance.

Once this opportunity is ripe and triggered, everything will fall into place.

However, Jiang Yue was still curious, how did this magical dream come about?
Even Jiang Yue wondered, is this really a dream?

Shouldn't dreams be upside down?Why this dream has been coherent from beginning to end.

Why is grandpa always in a dream?

Is the grandfather I saw last night a hallucination or real?

Jiang Yue suddenly remembered that at the end of this dream, his grandfather gave him a gift.

What about gifts?
Jiang Yue was startled and looked around.

On the desk beside Jiang Yue, three things were quietly placed on it.

A pen, a medium-sized jade box, and the projectile bead that was so powerful before.

Grandpa in the dream reminded me.

This pen is a rare spiritual object, it can make runes, and it has the ability to turn stones into gold.

Inside the jade box was a silver jade silkworm. When I opened it, the jade silkworm was motionless, as if it was in a state of deep sleep.

Grandpa once mentioned that once the jade silkworm wakes up and gets the food it needs, it will spit out a kind of crystal clear silk, which has quality but is intangible, but its tenacity is amazing.

Of course, the magical effect of this silk is not only its tenacity, but the most important thing is that it is difficult for even ghosts to see through the invisible net made of silk.

Once the ghost accidentally bumps into it, it will also be stuck by the silk and cannot escape!
In other words, this silk is an excellent nemesis against ghosts.

This is indeed a rare good thing.

Jiang Yue secretly made up his mind that he must find the food it needs and extract the silk of the jade silkworm.With this thing, not to mention catching ghosts, it is used to defend against ghosts. It is definitely an excellent umbrella for home travel!
The third gift, that is, the sword pill.

After a burst, the aura bestowed by the ancestors on Jianwan was obviously exhausted.Therefore, it is very difficult to count on this sword pill at present.

Unless Jiang Yue can renew the fee and re-inject aura.

With the terrifying lethality of the sword pill, the amount of spiritual power it needs to grab and inhale must be extremely astonishing.

However, Jiang Yue felt that it was all worth it.

As the saying goes, you get what you pay for.

With such a big killer, it is completely reasonable to eat more.

After all, it is his own blood.

Any one of these three gifts is a treasure to Jiang Yue.

After putting it away, Jiang Yue was about to get up when he suddenly saw a paper crane lying quietly on the desk on the other side.

Under Jiang Yue's gaze, the origami crane fluttered its wings slowly.

With a flash of light, the paper crane turned around a few times in the void, and a white light appeared.

A figure emerged from the white light.

It's grandpa.

"Xiao Yue, weird invasion, family affairs, state affairs, world affairs, I'm afraid it's hard to stay out of everything, so I can take care of myself."

After the voice fell, the figure of grandpa slowly blurred in the void until he disappeared.

Jiang Yue wanted to grab it unwillingly, but where he stretched out his hand, there was only a remnant light left.

After the light spot faded away, the paper crane appeared in the air again, but it ignited slowly and burned to ashes in an instant.

Jiang Yue felt lost.

He finally understood that it was also good last night and this moment.

The figure I saw was, after all, grandpa entrusted his thoughts and words on the paper crane through great supernatural powers. The paper crane was obviously made of runes, which was extraordinary.

Once the spiritual power is exhausted, the paper crane will spontaneously ignite and disillusion immediately.

Jiang Yue had to admit that this move was quite handsome.

People have passed away, but they can leave all kinds of information through runes, and leave their voices and smiles to future generations, which is much more real than the pictures recorded by the camera.

Unfortunately, this is a one-time consumable.

In the lobby, Jiang Yue bowed reverently to the ancestral tablet a few more times.

After confirming that there is no abnormality, step out of the lobby door.

When Jiang Yue's footsteps landed on the porch outside the threshold, he seemed to have suddenly returned to the original world.

Three Dogs also appeared on the porch.

The two brothers ran into each other in the corridor.

Sangou looked excited, and grabbed Jiang Yue's arm like a chicken blood: "Second brother, where did you go all night?"

Jiang Yue looked confused, shouldn't I ask you this?
"Second brother, I clearly saw you walking into the lobby, why didn't I see you all night? Could it be that you slipped away through the back door? Let me tell you, it's a big loss this time."

The three dogs were beaming with joy and foaming at the mouth.

Jiang Yue suddenly stopped: "Wait! Sangou, you won't say that you were in the lobby last night, right?"

"Nonsense! If I hadn't been in the lobby, how could I have seen my grandpa appear? Second brother, my grandpa is really an old fairy. He said that my natural yin and yang eyes were bestowed by my ancestors, and I was destined to fight against evil spirits and heretics. So, Grandpa passed on a lot of tricks to me!"

If it wasn't for Sangou's elation, Jiang Yue almost doubted whether this guy was bragging.

But if Sangou was in the lobby last night, could it be that Jiang Yue was in a fake lobby last night?
In this ancestral hall, there is obviously only one lobby.

However, Jiang Yue immediately thought, maybe, this is the family's magic circle at work again, deliberately separating them?

The purpose is to let the two brothers get their own chances?
Just as Jiang Yue was about to speak, the phone rang suddenly, and Luo Chu was on the other end of the phone.

"Xiao Jiang, something happened!"

After answering the phone, Luo Chu was in a hurry.

In the past, nothing happened in the middle of the night, and now it's dawn, but something happened instead?

"Luo Chu, Zhao Shouyin's eggs were all broken by you, won't you let him escape?"

"Zhao Shouyin has been taken into custody. He can't die, but he can't escape either."

"How big a deal can that be?" Jiang Yue didn't think so.As long as Zhao Shouyin's old Yin coin doesn't play tricks, it won't be a big deal right now.

Luo Chu faltered on the other end of the phone, as if hesitating about something.

He who has always been vigorous and resolute is actually so hesitant.Jiang Yue couldn't help feeling a little bad in his heart.

"Luo Chu, what's the matter?"

"Xiao Jiang, I'm telling you the truth, you have to hold your breath." Luo Chu vaccinated in advance.

"You know Yunshan Times Square, right? Something happened there last night! Your family is in there..."

To tell someone such bad news early in the morning, even a person like Luo Chu who doesn't pay much attention to people's sophistication, feels somewhat guilty.

"What? What happened?" The family is Jiang Yue's forbidden zone!
As soon as he heard that it was about his family, Jiang Yue immediately lost his composure.

"Xiao Jiang, don't worry. I left a car outside the entrance of the village. You should be able to drive, right? Go back to Star City first, and I'll tell you in detail when I get back."

It is really unclear to speak a few words on the phone.

Sangou also heard the content of the phone call, and was more anxious than Jiang Yue.

"Second brother..."

"Let's go back to Star City first."

The gate of the ancestral hall was damaged, so we should have found a way to repair it.Firstly, they didn't have tools and materials at hand, and secondly, Star City was in a hurry.

The two brothers had no choice but to leave, ran to the outside of Panshiling, and indeed parked a city SUV with automatic transmission.

"boarding!"

Jiang Yue doesn't actually have a driver's license, but driving doesn't have much technical content.

Haven't eaten pork, haven't seen a pig run yet?

With Jiang Yue's wisdom and operational ability, after driving a few hundred meters, he became proficient.

The car roared out of Panshiling, drove out of the mountain road, and entered the Dajinshan Panshan Highway.It turned out that the landslide had already been cleared away, and the road condition basically returned to its original state.

Jiang Yue raced all the way.

At this time, I don't care about speeding or not, and violations are not violations.

It would be too embarrassing if the cars of the special department couldn't even deal with a few violations.What's more, Sangou can be regarded as a member of a special department, and it can be regarded as performing official duties at the moment, so there is nothing wrong with violating a rule or something.

After more than two hours' drive, Jiang Yue hurried back to Star City within two hours.

At the gate of the base, Luo Chu has been waiting for a long time.

As soon as Jiang Yue got out of the car, he asked anxiously, "Luo Chu, what's going on now?"

Worrying was nothing but worrying, Jiang Yue didn't completely lose his footing.

After all, with Panshiling and his party, Jiang Yue had a new understanding of Lao Jiang's family.Whether it's sister-in-law or elder sister, they are all in the direct blood of the Jiang family.

Even if something happens, I believe my sister-in-law and eldest sister will definitely not be the first to be unlucky.

The evil feng shui formation in Yunxi Town, such a big battle, didn't the sister-in-law's family also escape?Not even Zhao Shouyin, an old Yin coin who can control ghosts, can't stop him.

Therefore, he still has confidence in his eldest sister and sister-in-law.

"Xiao Jiang, the situation is deteriorating very quickly. Not only our Star City, but the whole world is rapidly falling into a weird abyss. The speed of this weird invasion is faster than anyone imagined."

"The incident in Yunshan Times Square should have started last night. At first, no department noticed it. It was in the middle of the night that the police kept receiving calls, saying that their family members went to Yunshan Times Square. When I came back, I couldn't get through the phone..."

"One or two calls to the police is nothing, it's just an accident. But in the middle of the night, this kind of call to the police came one after another, and hundreds of calls were received in one night... This is obviously weird."

I also returned to Star City in the middle of the night and early in the morning. Once I came back, all kinds of information kept coming to me.

After I watched it, I realized something big happened.

"According to the peripheral surveillance, no one has left the entire Yunshan Square since nine o'clock last night."

"After nine o'clock? So, before nine o'clock is normal?"

"Yes, people come and go before nine o'clock, and everything is normal."

"In a comprehensive commercial plaza like this, after nine o'clock, there won't be many customers, right?"

"Yes, the peak period must have passed. But after nine o'clock, the flow of people will definitely not be less. According to our speculation, there must be at least a few hundred people stranded inside."

"Then how are you sure my family is inside?"

Luo Chu smiled wryly, he couldn't tell, because you two brothers are very special, so your family members are also our focus.

"The monitoring of the perimeter, our staff have compared the entry and exit of everyone. The face recognition system can basically determine who has entered the square and who has not."

"Why can't you come out?"

"Currently we can't find out the reason..." Luo Chu smiled wryly, "Because our rescuers seem to be unable to get in."

"What does it seem like?"

"At present, we have sent several groups of people in to investigate, or they can't get in anyway, and they go around in circles around the periphery; some of them went in, and soon lost contact."

And such a thing?

A commercial complex, including the basement, has only a few floors in total. Although the area is relatively large, the layout of each floor is actually the same.

This kind of layout, once you put the planning map, everything is clearly arranged, why can't you get in?
Ghost hitting the wall?
Having experienced so many times of ghosts hitting the wall, the special department must not be helpless against ghosts hitting the wall.

Intuitively, Jiang Yue knew that this game was not easy.

If it wasn't for the involvement of his family members, Jiang Yue would definitely not want to get involved in this situation.

Unfortunately, there is no if.

"Go and see the scene."

Luo Chu was waiting for this sentence, and opened the door for Jiang Yue himself.

"Go, get in the car."

To show his sincerity, Luo Chu closed the car door himself and acted as a driver for Jiang Yue Sangou.

The hundreds of meters outside Yunshan Times Square have all entered a state of martial law.

The population of the entire Star City is extremely large, but it is extremely difficult not to spread such an incident involving hundreds of people at all.

All kinds of hearsay rumors have been spread among the people.

However, there is no official data or various statistics among the people, so it is difficult to determine how many people were trapped in Yunshan Times Square.

Several departments of Star City have already arrived at the outskirts of Yunshan Times Square early.

Of course, for this kind of case, the leading authority is naturally still the special department, that is, the department that will soon be renamed the Bureau of Occult Operations.

As soon as Luo Chu pushed open the car door, Old Han who was not far away walked over quickly.

Seeing Jiang Yue and Sangou, Lao Han nodded at them, but walked up to Luo Chu with a serious face.

"Luo Chu, Officer Yan is scolding your mother, and wants to see you by name. You are here."

Luo Chu's poker face was gloomy, obviously he was mentally prepared for Chief Yan's cursing.

Not far away, a group of handsome-looking people surrounded a short and fat middle-aged man, all of them had cautious smiles on their expressions, which perfectly set off the short and fat middle-aged man, like green leaves against red like a flower.

The hair on the top of the chunky middle-aged man is very unreasonable, and seven or eight out of ten have already run away from home.

The rest of them are very naughty, they don't want to stay on the top of the head properly, but grow on both ends separately, leaving the middle bare part very bitterly.

It can be seen that the middle-aged man has spent a lot of effort and did not know how much hair gel was used. He wanted to come to a place to help the central government and comb the hair on both ends to cover the barren land in the middle. However, the cost is too little. It looks rather ridiculous.

However, this does not affect the official authority of the middle-aged man.

"What the hell are you guys doing? How can you get lost in such a commercial plaza in broad daylight? What about Luo Teng? Isn't he always very capable? How come when it's critical, no one is there? I usually take pictures of the table with my superiors." Where did your guts go?"

Obviously, this middle-aged man is the legendary superior, the scolding officer Yan.

"Officer Yan, talk about Luo Teng, and Luo Teng will be here. Once you open your mouth, you can't follow what you say!" An accompanying official next to him patted his ass in a timely manner.

Luo Teng walked up quickly, and saluted the middle-aged man with a standard salute.

"Report to Officer Yan, Luo Teng, Director of the Third Operation Division of the Star City of the Paranormal Operations Bureau, is reporting to you."

Officials crushed people to death.

He really couldn't be vague about official matters.

"Do you still remember that you are the director of the Operation Bureau?" Chief Yan adjusted the gold-rimmed glasses in front of his eyes, and glanced at Luo Chu with a neutral look.

"Yes."

"Sure enough, there is no discipline! Look, the people from the relevant brother departments have already arrived. As the chief of the operation department, what about your ability to act? What about your ability to execute? Do you still have discipline in your eyes? Are there any higher-ups?"

Chief Yan poked his index finger and pointed at Luo Chu's chest continuously.

This kind of finger-pointing and cursing method is very excessive in the public.

"Reporting sir, I was carrying out official duties in Yunxi Town and Panshiling yesterday, and I just rushed back to Star City until dawn."

Although he knew that Chief Yan was targeting him, Luo Chu couldn't help but explain what should be explained.

"Dawn? Look at the time yourself. How long has it been since dawn?"

Now the time has passed 08:30, and it is indeed two or three hours before dawn.

"Why don't you talk? Where did the courage to yell at your superiors go on the phone yesterday?"

Luo Chu finally understood that Gen Jie was here.

This Chief Yan is advocating keeping all the replicators in Star City alive.And Luo Chu listened to Jiang Yue's suggestion, and advocated killing all the replicators and burning the corpses on the spot.

For this reason, Luo Chu argued hard, and even pushed the bull on the phone.

Of course, Luo Chu didn't elaborate on these details to Jiang Yue, but just explained away the details by saying that the official rank is overwhelming.

Jiang Yue is a smart person, and he understands what's going on.

In such an occasion, he was actually indescribably tired.If it wasn't for Luo Chu's face, he wouldn't even want to come here.

What is Mr. Yan?

He really can't control him, Jiang Yue.

"Second brother, who is this person? He has such great authority, and I don't know how capable he is." Seeing Luo Chu being dissed like this, Sangou instinctively complained.

"I don't know." Jiang Yue shook his head, "Come on, let's go and have a look."

Although the two brothers were separated by a certain distance, their voices were not deliberately suppressed when they asked and answered. It seemed that they were not targeting anyone, but with so many thoughtful people present, they obviously couldn't hold back their face.
