[Tanhua Modern] Blackening cannot always save the world

The night wind whistling, rolled up the desolate dead leaves in the garden, the sky seemed to be covered by something, and when you looked up, there was boundless darkness.

A man curled up in a ball shivered in a dark room, the decoration of the house was antique, there was an unburned red candle on the table, and there was a soft curtain hanging on the bed.

The man is already sloppy, and there is no sign of being proud of himself in the workplace.

"Squeak-"

The door was opened.The man's eyes were terrified, and he stared at the wide open door. There was nothing but the cold wind blowing in faintly.

His forehead suddenly felt a little itchy, and some black hair suddenly fell out in front of his eyes, first one or two strands, then a lock, and then a thick handful, this could not be his hair, not even normal human beings grow hair like this.

He looked up at the ceiling. He knew that he didn't look the best, but everyone has a deadly curiosity. This thing will always control a certain part of the body before the person's reason works, so he saw.. .........

A woman's face grew out of the ceiling. Her eyes were big and hollow, but she smiled faintly the moment the man looked at her.That face slowly emerged from the ceiling, pale and pale, and when the eyes were smiling, the black parts of the eyes slowly spread. with the man.

"what!----"

In the dark night, a shrill scream tore through the oppressive tranquility.

Lou Yi looked in the direction of the back house, then looked at the frowning man in front of him, and said suddenly:

"Old ghost, take a look?"

The ghost was obviously stunned, obviously surprised by Lou Yi's title, but still nodded:

"There is another person behind, but I usually can't get in the back house, but..." He glanced at Lou Yi and said:

"I feel like following you this time, I should be able to go in."

Lou Yi silently opened the door, glanced back, and said lightly:

"Let's go then."

The "old ghost" followed, and they walked away from the ghost and said:

"I'm not called an old ghost."

Lou Yi walked with his head depressed, and said casually when he heard his words:

"Oh yeah, what does your name matter to me?"

The ghost choked, but he still had a good temper and said with a smile:

"Then can you tell me your name?"

"Why should I tell you?" Lou Yi stopped, his voice a little indifferent.

Why should he talk to him?Even if it was a momentary curiosity, when he found something, they would have nothing to do with each other.From the very first moment he saw him, he concluded that he couldn't help this ghost, and since that was the case, there was no need to get involved.

The ghost blinked, thought for a while and said:

"I can tell you my name in exchange."

Lou Yi snorted and said:

"Judging by your appearance, you have been dead for hundreds of years. It is very appropriate to call you an old ghost. I don't really care what your name is."

The ghost sighed:

"I can't even say my name, so how can I make friends with you?"

Lou Yi's eyes were inexplicably complicated for a moment, and he said:

"Do I act like I want to make friends with you? You want to make friends with me the first time we meet?"

"No matter which pair of friends has a time to meet for the first time, who stipulates that people who meet for the first time cannot become friends?"

"What if I don't want to make friends?" Lou Yi's eyes were cold.

The ghost's expression dimmed a bit, and said:

"Then you must be living very lonely."

Although he said "you", he had a lonely expression on his face. Lou Yi's heart, which had been frozen for a long time, couldn't help but feel a little tight. He realized that this guy has been wandering around alone for many years, what should he be like? lonely.He pursed his lips tightly, turned around and walked in silence again.

Although the ghost was a little frustrated, he hurriedly followed.After walking a few steps, I saw the footsteps of the person in front pause slightly, and then his cold voice came from my ear:

"Louis."

The ghost looked happy, the corners of his mouth curled up, he was about to say something when Lou Yi said again:

"But I still don't want to know your name." After finishing speaking, he continued to walk.

The ghost didn't think it was disobedient, nodded and said:

"Brother Lou, why are you here?"

Hearing this unfashionable title, the corners of Lou Yi's mouth twitched, but he didn't bother to correct him, saying:

"Yu, I'm here to find a piece of jade."

"What kind of jade?" He asked, but a shadow involuntarily floated in his mind, a piece of blood-red ancient jade. He once saw it in it when the resistance to him in the back house was not as strong as it is today. Pass a piece of ancient jade packed in a mahogany box.

"A piece of blood-red jade."

Sure enough... the old ghost pursed his lips, thinking of something, and fell silent for a while.

"You know." Lou Yi said firmly.

The old ghost nodded, frowned slightly, and said with some hesitation:

"It's just... there is something very bad next to that piece of jade... very dangerous..."

Lou Yi laughed, looked at him with cold and deep eyes, and lightly said:

"If you're afraid, you'd better die again." I don't know if I'm talking about myself or who.

The old ghost frowned even tighter, but he still sighed slightly, and followed him again.

"You came here to save me just now?" Seeing his worried face, Lou Yi switched to another topic.

The old ghost laughed dryly and said:

"But it doesn't seem necessary."

Lou Yi nodded, noncommittal, silent for a while and then said:

"It was you just now?"

The old ghost suddenly realized that he was referring to what happened in the study just now, and coughed lightly, feeling a little embarrassed for some reason:

"Yes."

Lou Yi glanced at him and said nothing.

The old ghost smiled wryly, he guessed that this person felt that he was meddling in his own business.It's just that if he knew that he could see him earlier, he might have taken care of this business earlier.

"Brother Lou..." The old ghost wanted to say something, but when he heard another scream in the night, the two (ghosts) looked terrified, and both of them quickened their pace.

Stepping into the backyard, the old ghost suddenly felt his whole body sink, but his face didn't change, and his steps didn't even mess up in the slightest, so that Lou Yi in front of him didn't notice anything strange about him, but maybe he wouldn't if he found out. What a special reaction.

..................

He Lang's family is wealthy, he is smart, gentle and stable, coupled with a handsome appearance, he has been going smoothly since he was a child, even if he can't be called the favored son of heaven, he lived a happy life before.

But three days ago, he woke up inexplicably in this house that seemed to be unoccupied for a long time. The silence and fear were like sea water, almost drowning him, but at first nothing happened except for some weird noises. , but the darkness and silence can drive people crazy. Although he has a strong mental quality and endured for a few days, he can't wait to pass out now.

The face growing on the ceiling got closer and closer, and then suddenly, his face turned cold and his eyes went dark. Before he lost consciousness, he saw a mass of blood and flesh, and two black holes stared at him.

He opened his eyes and woke up, the sun was beautiful and the wind was warm, the warm sunshine was intoxicating, and there were clusters of bright flowers in front of him, and the faint fragrance came to his nostrils. All the fear and fatigue before were ignored, and he was almost drunk In this peaceful beauty.

Not far in front, there is a young girl in a warm yellow spring shirt, with a shiny face, a pair of almond eyes smiling sweetly, looking at him like a pool of spring water in her eyes, and seeing him in a daze, the girl Laugh like a silver bell.

All of He Lang's guards disappeared in an instant, and he unconsciously showed a somewhat silly smile, like a young man who just fell in love.He was very familiar with the girl in front of him, it was a kind of familiarity rooted in his soul, which made him unable to be on guard.He stepped forward to hold her soft little hand, and followed her step by step on the soft turf.

The more he walked, the looser and faster his steps became, and the happier he felt, he tightened his hands, which were soft as if they had no bones, and felt that it would be okay even if he walked like this forever.

But even if he thought about it this way, the day was really deserted in an instant, and the turf was yellow and old in an instant, he was still shocked. He heard someone shouting loudly, and subconsciously looked back......

It was a handsome man who stopped him, with a face as cold and deep as an ancient Greek sculpture, but He Lang didn't have the heart to appreciate it now, because the man said:

"I advise you to keep this posture and don't turn around."

Hearing what he said, He Lang was stunned, and subconsciously turned around...

In his hand was a green and white withered hand, if it could be called a hand, it might indeed be a hand, like a corpse dug up in a mass grave, with cold sweat oozing from the pores, He looked at the master who was attacking... a face without skin covering, and the rotten and blackened flesh was turned out... He let out a scream, and quickly shook his hand, but the But the hand tightly clamped his palm, as if it had taken root there.

Rubbing his stomach in fear, he almost vomited, but he couldn't shake off that hand, so he could only turn his begging eyes to the person who held hands opposite him, but the person's eyes were calm, and he didn't have the slightest intention of helping.

When He Lang was almost desperate, a faint golden light flashed, and the female ghost who grabbed his hand was like being whipped by a wicker, and let out a sharp and piercing scream, and then let go of his hand, and he rolled and crawled rolled in the opposite direction.

"Thank you...thank you...thank you..." He tremblingly said thank you, but the man didn't even look at him.

Lou Yi frowned, and glared at the pale old ghost beside him, but he didn't know where the unexplained anger in his heart came from.He looked at the almost untenable person around him again, curled his lips slightly, and looked at the female ghost who was staggering towards them with a serious expression, grabbed the person, and drank:

"go!"

After escaping through a door, He Lang realized that the place he had just stood on was not a desolate green land at all, the cracked land was hideously exposed, and the gray and white bones were scattered all over the ground. He shuddered in fright and dared not read.

The two and one ghost hurried all the way, in front of a closed red lacquered door, the old ghost suddenly yelled:

"and many more!"

But only Lou Yi could hear it, so when he stopped, He Lang looked at him in panic and asked:

"What happened? Why didn't you leave, that ghost is about to catch up!"
