The Tale of the Kraken

Chapter 98
"Ghosts... There are ghosts, but they hardly appear in the human world!" There was a sound of opening the door from Chi Dun, and after a while, he continued:

"You have to know that after the female snail created man, after a long period of time, the man died and returned to the heaven and the earth. Later, the three clans fought in chaos, and the people in Kunlun had spirits. They couldn't bear the suffering of the common people, so they opened up the underworld. But this is what the master told me, I don’t know if it’s true.”

"What does Kunlun have spirit?" Yang Yang asked in confusion.If he remembered correctly, the last time he went to see Ba ​​She, Yuan Mu mentioned "Kunlun Baize" when he reported his family name.

Although Yang Yang doesn't know much about the love and hatred of monsters, he still knows about Kunlun Mountain.

"I don't know either. I only know that my master often said that Kunlun has spirits, maybe I'm too stupid." Chi Dun sighed after finishing speaking, and then said: "Both the little fox and Xiaochen said, play more games. Intellect can be developed.”

"..." So this is the reason why Chi Dun is holding on to his phone all day long... Developing intelligence?Why don't you say that you can cultivate immortals and become gods!
The most exaggerated thing is that Chi Dun actually believed it!Yang Yang almost didn't even have the desire to complain, he sighed and said: "Then you come to the store now, I have something to ask you."

"What's the matter?" Chi Dun asked.

"Dai Xia... Forget it, you haven't seen it. A friend of mine said his house is haunted." After Yang Yang finished speaking, he looked up and looked out the window, and found that Yuan Mu had finished making the phone call, so he said, "Your Daoists Should have taught you how to exorcise ghosts?"

"Teaching is teaching..." Chi Dun said.

"That's good, come quickly! We'll wait for you!" Yang Yang said immediately after hearing Chi Dun's words, then hung up the phone and walked towards Yuan Mu.

Looking at the hung up phone, Chi Dun murmured, "But... I haven't learned it..."

Of course, Yang Yang couldn't hear this sentence.

"How could it be haunted?" Yang Yang asked with some doubts.

It's not that Yang Yang doesn't believe in ghosts, it's because his eyes can see things that others can't. To put it more simply, he has a pair of yin and yang eyes.

But with these eyes, I have seen countless monsters since I was a child, but I have never seen a ghost.

When he was young, he also played some games like Pen Fairy with his friends, and even went to some famous local haunted houses, but he saw nothing.

The only rewarding time was that a family of weasel spirits lived in that haunted house.All the so-called haunted rumors were made by them. Therefore, although he always felt that since the monsters are real, the ghosts should also be real, but there must be a reason why he has never seen it once when he grows up so big. .

"I'm also surprised." Yuan Mu said, glanced at Michelle who was busy in the operation room and said, "What I'm afraid of now is that there is something wrong with Lao Hu."

"Hu Weixian?" Yang Yang raised his eyebrows and asked.

"Yeah." Yuan Mu nodded and said, "Old Hu told us before he left that he wanted us to help take care of Michelle. He would come back in three months at the latest and half a year at the latest, but now you do the math, half a year It's been a month and there's no news from him."

"Maybe...something is delayed?" Yang Yang said uncertainly.

"Then I will send a message back." Yuan Mu shook his head, "Even if we don't send us a message, at least we will inform Xiao Xueer so that she doesn't have to worry."

When Yang Yang heard this, he also felt that it made sense, so he nodded along, and then suddenly seemed to remember something, and asked, "Hey, by the way, what does Kunlun have spirit?"

"Where did you hear that?" Yuan Mu was taken aback by Yang Yang's question, and looked at him in surprise and asked.

"Chi Dun told me." After finishing speaking, he added, "He said he didn't know what he meant. He heard what his master said."

"Oh." Yuan Mu nodded to express his understanding, "You know the story of Pangu opening up the sky, right?"

"I know. I'm not so ignorant!"

"Pangu, the great god, ascended after he opened the sky, leaving behind his body and turning into mountains and rivers. Because the heaven and the earth were transformed by the great god, they all have spirituality. As time goes by, every mountain will have a mountain god. The meaning of Kunlun's spirit is, There are mountain gods in Kunlun Mountains."

"Then since every mountain has a mountain god, why is the Kunlun mountain god so powerful?" Yang Yang asked.

"Because Kunlun Mountain is transformed by the heart of Pan Gu." Yuan Mu pointed to the location of the heart and said, "The heart is the most original place of a living being."

"Oh." Although Yang Yang still had a lot of questions he wanted to ask, looking at Yuan Mu's appearance, he didn't seem to want to say more, so he thoughtfully stopped asking.

The two of them remained silent for a while, and then Chi Dun arrived at the store, followed by Wu Zhongwu and Zhou Liang.

After the few people sat down, Yuan Mu roughly told them what happened today.

But after listening, Yu Zhongwu frowned: "How reliable are Dai Xia's words?"

"I want to talk about the credibility, I always have to go and see." Yuan Mu looked at Yang Yang, and continued, "When he was in Xiangxi, Yang Yang almost got the soul-hunting spell, and now he has a ghost. Speaking of which, I always feel that these things are not coincidences, even if they are coincidences, we should take a look."

After Zhou Liang listened, he nodded in agreement: "No matter what his purpose is, if it's true, we'll check it out. If it's false, that's fine. We can also see what the hell he's up to."

"It's not too late, just tonight." Wu Zhongwu no longer objected at this time.

Yang Yang looked at a few people and thought, I don't need to go this time, right?

However, the fact is that no matter what Yuan Mu does, no matter where he goes, he always takes Yang Yang with him.

The reason is that he is the captain of the special operations team, and no one can do without him.

Yang Yang was extremely unwilling to go, after all he was still very scared.

In the past, he would bite the bullet no matter what, but after going through so many things, Yang Yang already regarded Yuan Mu as a trustworthy good friend like Zuo Yong in his heart.

Even for him, Yuan Mu is often more trustworthy than Zuo Yong.Because Yuan Mu knew more secrets about himself.So this time, Yang Yang unreservedly explained his thoughts and worries to Yuan Mu.

"What are you afraid of?" Yuan Mu glanced at Yang Yang, and said indifferently: "You have seen so many monsters, why are you still afraid?"

"That's different." Yang Yang shook his head and said, "I've been able to see monsters since I was a child. Although I was quite scared at the beginning, after so many years, I got used to watching them, and after so many years, there has never been a monster. How do monsters treat me. But ghosts are different, I have never seen it since I grew up..."

"Then this time I will take you to experience it." Yuan Mu joked, and after seeing Yang Yang's ugly face, he comforted him, "Actually, ghosts and monsters are just things that live in other worlds. "

"According to what you humans say, we live in different planes. The reason why you can see monsters is because many monsters like the civilization established by your humans. Compared with Qingxiu in the mountains, cities The place is lively and prosperous, so they are naturally willing to stay here."

"You mean, there are other monsters?" Yang Yang was startled after hearing Yuan Mu's words, and asked, "I thought monsters lived in human cities out of necessity."

"You think too much. Although monsters have different levels of cultivation, they will not be forced to this point by you humans. According to our logic, if humans go too far, killing a few is not a big deal. For most monsters , Killing a few humans is like trampling on a few ants."

"..." Listening to Yuan Mu's words, Yang Yang suddenly remembered Xie Zhi's words that day, and fell silent.

"Don't be unhappy, the fact is like this. It seems that you humans like to go to various wildernesses to investigate the living habits of animals and watch wild animals, but once the animals there threaten your own safety, you will shoot without hesitation. It's like killing them."

"According to what you said, this is Darwin's theory, the survival of the fittest, so a long time ago, our demon clan opened up a new plane, and there is the real demon world."

"Then...then you..." What Yang Yang wanted to ask was why the monsters who stayed here didn't go back there.

"At the beginning, in order to prevent the human race from counterattacking, the demon world selected some demon races to guard the passages between the two worlds. I was one of them. Later, the relationship between the two races gradually eased. The demon races really like to hang out in the towns of the human race. So that channel gradually does not strictly prohibit the two races from coming and going."

After Yuan Mu finished speaking, he smiled: "Otherwise, how do you think so many legends of monsters have been passed down from ancient times to the present? Isn't it just left by some monsters who are unwilling to be lonely when they come to the human world for a stroll?"

"Then why did Dancing in the Rain say that when we first met?" Yang Yang still remembered Dancing in the Rain's cynical tone when they first met.

He said that it was because the time was too long, and he couldn't do other things, so he could only kill people.

"Because something happened later." Yuan Mu said, looking out of the window and said: "Later something happened in the demon world, and the passage between the human and demon worlds was cut off. We were left here."

"Then can't you go back?" This is the first time Yang Yang has heard of this.

"Well, I can't go back." Yuan Mu nodded, and after seeing Yang Yang's sympathetic expression, he patted him on the shoulder: "Don't put on that expression, there is nothing wrong with being in the world, you see Many monsters want to come to the human world but can't. It's just a siege. People outside want to go in, people inside want to come out."

"What about you, do you want to go back?"

"Me? It's all right. Anyway, the demon world and the human world are the same to me. I'm not like Dancing in the Rain. I don't have other clansmen. I have been alone since I was born. I have nothing to worry about, so I go to It's the same everywhere."
