Chapter 15: The Mystery of Banda City

"Ah...!" Gao Xia was startled, almost stood up, but Pu Sheng grabbed her.Pusheng let him sit down with a smile, approached him and said, "It's okay. This school is full of Heishu. Don't you know? Banda City is basically a den of Heishu, where Heishu, illusionists, Jiaoren , the Fengli people and other races live together with humans. Here, one out of ten people is Heishu, so it’s not surprising that there are four here.”

"Why are there so many? Isn't the black bunch scary? Why can you still eat and drink here so comfortably?" Gao Xia still couldn't calm down. Hearing Pusheng's words, he instantly felt that he was already in danger. bingo.

"Normal black beams still don't attack people indiscriminately. Black beams with less than ten abilities basically don't have any personal consciousness, and just live according to instinct. So they yearn for other people's souls, blood, and desire to become powerful. Ten Hei Shu above the ability is basically no different from ordinary people. They can control their desires and try to cooperate with their bodies. Most of them just want to live a normal life in peace. Besides, there are rules, Hei Shu, Jiaoren If they attack humans, they will be sentenced to death, and those who are serious will be imprisoned for ten to 100 years. Those who are light will be 'trained' for one month to several years, or be exiled." The dish is served. Yes, Pusheng picked up a skewer of barbecued meat and ate it with relish.

"Exile? What do you mean?" Gao Xia asked.

"Exile is to go to other places. There are not many places like Banda City where there are mixed fish and dragons. No matter what race you are here, as long as you don't make trouble, you can live quietly. This is a transfer station, the junction of the border Well, many of the people who come here have committed terrific crimes in their own country and fled here to live. It’s hard to find another peaceful place like this independent of any country in the world. Anyone who thinks about it There will be no chaos here. Don't worry!"

Gao Xia looked at him with strange eyes, without a trace of trust in him, and said, "I can't let go. 'Those who think about things won't make trouble here?' Then you were just thinking about things on the spur of the moment a few days ago?"

Seeing Gao Xia's questioning eyes, Pu Sheng was stunned for a moment, then scratched his head, laughed, and said, "That's it, that's it. I didn't think so much at that time, who doesn't have a moment of impulsiveness when young. Ha ha ha ha……"

Seeing Pusheng's awkward dry smile, Gao Xia waved his hands and forgot, and continued the topic just now: "You mean this is actually a special area. So if you are exiled, where will you be exiled?"

"You don't know that. Generally speaking, you will be sent back to your country, but most people who escaped are most afraid of going back to their country. If you just happen to have no travel expenses and are sent back to your country, of course he is happy and it's too late. The situation is serious. Yes, you will be exiled to Dazzling Island, which is basically a gathering place for criminals, full of horrible guys, and the whole island can be said to be a prison. If you go there, if you are not powerful, you will basically die. If you have a thin layer of skin, anything can happen there. But at least you can survive. If you are locked up, it is really worse than death. If I have a chance to experience it in the future, I will definitely tell you how it feels." Pu Sheng Haha laughed, looked at the people beside him, it was a warning, those Gao Xia couldn't tell who they were, turned their heads away.

Seeing Gao Xia's timid look, Pu Sheng smiled and patted him on the back, saying, "There's nothing to be afraid of, it's safer to be normal."

Gao Xia looked at him, smiled, and let go of his heart a lot, maybe he was too nervous some time ago, but now he is like a person with too fragile nerves, a little bit of trouble makes him worry to death.

"Hearing what you said, I realized that there are so many things I don't know. Then why didn't I know before?" Gao Xia approached and said.

"If I let you know, people who don't make it panic. Then it won't be a mess here."

"But didn't you say that the black beam would attack people? If the person is dead, what should I say, it can't be fooled." Gao Xia looked puzzled.

"You don't know this. It can be disguised as accidental death, suicide, etc. It is impossible to let you know the real reason. Otherwise, what is the association here for? That's what it does. Those accidents Death, are there really so many accidental deaths? Some are just borrowed.” Pusheng looked at him and said: “There are many kinds of black bunches, most of them are good people, and they generally don’t attack people, because It is very troublesome to change the 'container'. Many black beams will enter the 'container' and merge with their bodies, and then continue to live instead of their former owners, because most black beams just want to live quietly or fulfill their incomplete wishes. I'm talking about most of them, but there are still some black beams who don't think so, like vampires, they wake up after sucking blood once, and they can't continue to live in such a quiet and tasteless way."

Gao Xia looked at him, but didn't speak.

On the way back after eating, Gao Xia walked ahead silently.Pusheng called him twice but he didn't answer. Pusheng had no choice but to run up, put his hands on his shoulders, and said: "Look at the girl on the left, that girl in the white skirt, she is actually Heishu." Gao Xia followed along. Looking in the direction he pointed, a long-haired adopted daughter was walking on their left, very pretty.Gao Xia didn't dare to imagine, and asked, "Is this also?"

Pusheng nodded with a smile.He said: "Well. It looks completely the same as ordinary people. And there are other things. The couple walking behind us is also, they should also come out for supper. How does it look, be happy." Gao Xia listened As soon as he said that, he looked back, and sure enough, there was a tall couple walking behind them, holding hands happily, walking very close together.It looks like those college students who have nothing to do and fall in love.

Gao Xia couldn't believe it, there were so many in such a small distance and on one road in such a big school?It's a little surprising.

"Those people are really Hei Shu?" Gao Xia looked at Pu Sheng.

"That's natural. How could I be wrong. Black beams are completely different from humans. You may not feel it, but for us it's as simple as distinguishing humans from dogs."

"How to tell?" Gao Xia is now more and more curious about Hei Zhu.

"You can see his soul. His soul seems to be wearing a layer of veil. It's so dark that he can't see clearly. His movements are also half a beat slower than his expressions, and half a beat slower than ordinary people. Although they can perfectly I have used acting skills to deceive relatives who have lived for more than ten years, but we still cannot deceive our eyes. Our eyes exist to see through this mask of the soul." After finishing speaking, Pusheng looked at Gao Xia's confused expression and asked : "Understood?"

Gao Xia shook his head honestly, and said, "If you say it again, you might understand."

"Hey." Pusheng sighed, touched his face and said, "Forget it, I will explain to you slowly later, anyway, you won't understand if I tell you now."

"Then the black bunch I met that day who wanted to eat me wasn't this normal black bunch?"

"Well. Didn't the old man in the mental illness say that these black beams that attack people may be black beams created by Bald Li and the others. They are intentionally mass-produced commodities, and their abilities are also below ten. The beam is basically like a born animal, and it only acts according to instinct." Pusheng waited for the couple to walk over, and then leaned over and said to Gao Xia mysteriously: "Their instinct is to eat, invade other people's bodies, and find suitable food for themselves. If the temptation is too great, the death incident will happen. I think the black beam that attacked you that day should have not been formed for a long time, and I am eager to find the next 'container'." Pusheng sniffed Gao Xia , Said: "I don't know why, you have a strange smell on your body, it seems to be very attractive to Heishu."

Gao Xia immediately dodged to the side and distanced himself. Hearing what Pusheng said, he satirized him: "What about you? Are you going to become a black bunch?"

"Me? It's an attraction for me. I acted on my own initiative, and I didn't listen to me at all. Maybe you are strange, your dying breath may be full of temptation to those black beams floating outside ...make them desperate to kill you."

"Kill me? Don't scare me now, don't tell me the truth, you can lie to me. I would rather believe that I did something bad that day. I littered, didn't clean up, and didn't watch the news broadcast properly. God punished me, let me encounter such a horrible thing, I practiced my courage and also accepted a severe lesson." Gao Xia gave him a white look and said.

"Actually, do you know why Hei Zhu knows that others are going to die? Because there is a smell on the dying person, you humans can't smell that smell, but we can smell it. The sooner the dying person, the stronger it is, It's like reminding Heishu that you are dying and the countdown is on. But everyone's situation is different. If a person is younger, the smell may be stronger, and the attitude towards life is better than other people who don't want to die. Thick. No matter what, it’s the smell that always attracts those black bunches that are ready to move.” Pusheng moved his face closer to him and said, “I see you have such a strong smell, so impatient, just like those who are eager to find clients My lady. Haha... you have to be careful, don't be too ostentatious."

Gao Xia was so angry that he was about to reach out to hit him, but Pu Sheng jumped away lightly.Gao Xia chased after him angrily, and punched him, Pu Sheng caught it with his palm with a smile.Although Pusheng doesn't look like a big man, he is quite strong. Gao Xia exerted all his strength, and he held onto it tightly. Gao Xia struggled but couldn't get out.

At this time, the Heishu couple could not see, Gao Xia reminded him to go back quickly, because it was quite late now.He remembered that when he came out, Zimeng said that he seemed to have to go somewhere tomorrow, and there was something to be clarified.

At this time, the group of people who were sitting next to them drinking came over, tugging at each other noisily.When they walked past them, a boy stared at them, even after walking a few meters, he turned around and stared.

Gao Xia was a little uncomfortable, turned his head and didn't look at them.When they got a little further away, he asked, "What are they looking at? Looking at us?" Pu Sheng also kept staring at them, with a solemn expression, and only turned around to answer Gao Xia's question when they were far away.

He replied, "What did you just ask?"

"I'm asking you what are they looking at? It seems a bit hostile. The man who was staring at this side just now is Hei Shu?"

"That boy is not, but the girl next to that boy and the other boy next to the girl are." Pusheng pointed quickly with his hand and said, "The boy who has been staring at us is a human being, and he should be like you." I also know about Hei Shu, that Hei Shu should have told him about us just now, he should be as curious as you, and just wanted to see more." Pu Sheng finished speaking without turning his head, and then pulled Gao Xia Just go to the side.

Pusheng walked very quickly, basically like dragging Gao Xia to reincarnate.After walking for a while, Pusheng stopped when he could no longer see the group of people just now, and said quietly to Gao Xia, "Just now I communicated with another illusionist in the crowd and asked about the situation."

"Huh? When? I didn't hear you at all." Gao Xia looked at him in surprise.After a pause, he yelled loudly again: "Ah! You mean there were illusionists in the crowd just now? Who is it?"

"In the crowd. A girl. Of course you can't see it. What's so strange about it? This city is full of monsters pretending to be humans and black beams wearing human skin." After finishing speaking, Pusheng looked at the far away.

"Really?"

"Ah."

"What did you communicate with just now? What did you find out?" Gao Xia changed the subject.

"I just asked her about the situation of the black beam that has been moving recently while she was walking past, or something strange happened. For example, a large car accident, people jumping to death and so on."

"How's the situation? Have you heard anything?" Gao Xia touched him, then turned around and looked carefully.

"The situation is not very good. There is one important clue." Gao Xia knocked off his hand and said, "But she said that recently, it seems that the Illusionist Association issued a notice telling us illusionists at school to be careful. Because the school doesn’t seem to be reassuring anymore, and it’s starting to become chaotic.”

Gao Xia didn't seem to care what he said, raised his head and said, "I was wondering how you guys were talking? Did you have something on your body? A walkie-talkie or something?" to go.Pu Sheng Fu forehead, a little do not want to talk.

"Who would use such a non-technical thing? It's inconvenient and inconvenient to carry this kind of thing around. Besides, what should we do if someone next to us hears it. We use ventriloquism. Ventrilogue! Do you understand? You Stupid, I just say that human beings are troublesome, troublesome and mentally retarded."

Gao Xia rolled his eyes and ignored him. "It's so powerful. But if other people who know ventriloquist hear it, it's quite troublesome. Isn't it the same as chatting in public places, but you have changed the language. You think we can't understand you when you speak Arabic in China. I understand, if you are surrounded by people who understand Arabic, isn't this the same as chatting in an Arab country." Gao Xia concluded after thinking for a while.

"Yo. I can't see that you are quite smart. You understand so quickly. I just said that you are stupid. It seems that even if it is you, no one will be stupid forever." Pusheng sneered.

Gao Xia rolled his eyes again, not wanting to argue with him, and said, "Cut. I'm really too lazy to talk to someone with no quality like you. Didn't you get an important clue just now? What is it?"

"Well. It's related to the black bunch. It is said that recently someone secretly made a large number of black bunches and put them in the city to mess around. I don't know what to do, this is the same as what the psychopath said, and there is another unexpected clue that although a large number of black beams were released, a messenger of justice also came out. With a big knife, he walked around the city every day, killing people when he saw black beams attacking people."

"Wow. It's so powerful. It feels like a plot in a movie. When there are bad guys, there must be a mysterious hero. Save the earth, support justice, but mysterious, no one knows his true face. Haha. This is a Hollywood blockbuster Feeling. Everyone loves hero!" Gao Xia said excitedly by himself, and raised his hand after speaking.It showed the small and pitiful muscles.

Pusheng ignored him, pulled him towards the dormitory quickly, and said as he walked: "I think we may have to find someone to inquire about the situation. At least we must know who made those black beams. Otherwise, you will really be finished." .”

Gao Xia was taken aback, he hadn't thought about this question for a long time, and almost forgot that he was a dying person.Gao Xia smiled and followed Pusheng back to the dormitory.
