The Psychic Resurrection: Riding the Mirage

Chapter 24: The Land of Longevity

The helicopter slowly landed from the air.

After getting out of the cabin, the accompanying specialist hurriedly said: "We have arrived at the destination. The area ahead is blocked. You need to go there on your own."

Hu Jiu looked around. There was only a small road. At the end, the outline of a village could be vaguely seen. Fully armed police were constantly patrolling at the intersection.

Cui Xueyan and Zou Chong were whispering something. Yue Renchun stood far away, radiant and beautiful alone.

The probability of a person with outstanding appearance in the crowd is extremely low, and becoming a ghost rider is an even lower probability thing. Two low-probability events occur in the same person, and multiplication should be used. The result... There will be many zeros after the decimal point.

The supernatural circle is not the entertainment circle. It is impossible for handsome men and beautiful women to be everywhere. Even if there are, they will not attract everyone indiscriminately, unless... the supernatural is at work.

The four people should have taken action as soon as possible, but at this time, Cui Xueyan suddenly stood up and said, "I think everyone should tell us about their abilities in advance. After all, this mission is a bit difficult. Only by understanding each other can we cooperate better and avoid some unnecessary troubles."

To be honest, this is an unreasonable request.

When the headquarters builds the files of ghost riders, they will not ask too much about the details. Private investigation is another matter. On the surface, they just take a code name with symbolic meaning.

But Zou Cong, who had been silent all the way, agreed to Cui Xueyan's proposal at the first time and spoke first: "My code name is [Ghost Covering Eyes], which can make people lose their vision and fall into darkness, and can also interrupt the killing pattern of ghosts, so that ghosts temporarily stop chasing targets, but the duration is very short."

Then, Cui Xueyan also said: "I control [Ghost Scratching People], and my nails can be extended to repel physical ghosts."

After that, the two looked at Hu Jiu and Yue Renchun expectantly.

Tsk~, why do I feel like I'm being coerced?

Hu Jiu smiled, the standard arc was like being measured by a ruler, "Codename [Hanged Ghost], the ability is to hang people up and strangle them, and can also hang evil ghosts and hinder their actions."

As soon as the voice fell, Yue Renchun followed closely: "My codename [Peach Blossom Evil] can actively attract evil ghosts."

As soon as this was said, Cui Xueyan and Zou Chong were both shocked. Hu Jiu suddenly thought of Liu Mingguang. This ability to attract ghosts... if used well, it is a killer weapon to trap evil ghosts. If used badly, it is to seek death!

However, looking at Yue Renchun's current state, there is no need to worry about him.

Who doesn't have a few trump cards?

Who will really reveal all their abilities?

What can be said is superficial. The few people seem to be more familiar and close, walking along the path, talking and laughing all the way.

—— Cui Xueyan is talking, Hu Jiu is laughing. Yue Renchun and Zou Chong act as background boards.

"The Shou Village ahead is the mission location. The transportation here is inconvenient and the location is remote. It is unclear when the supernatural phenomena will appear."

"The headquarters received the news half a month ago. The cause was a health care internet celebrity named Zhang. Because there are many centenarians in Shou Village, the internet celebrity sold health care products under the gimmick of exploring the secret of longevity."

"However, Zhang's team never came out after entering Shou Village, and they all lost contact. After calling the police, the police officers who came to investigate also lost contact."

"After that, the police used drones to secretly investigate, and only filmed a birthday banquet being held in the village, and then the drone failed."

"Realizing that the situation was different, the case was transferred to a special department. The headquarters mobilized military satellites, but found that the sky above Shou Village was shrouded in dark clouds, which lasted for a long time and nothing could be filmed..."

Cui Xueyan was like a chirping sparrow. As she was talking, a wind with a sour and decayed smell suddenly blew in front of Hu Jiu's nose.

Not only did he smell it, but the other three also slowed down their pace at the same time.

The smell was vague and it was hard to find the source.

At this time, Yue Renchun suddenly raised his head, "Is it foggy?"

The originally clear blue sky had become dim at some point, like the veil on a lady's face, hazy from light to dark. As we walked along, the environment changed unconsciously.

The further we walked, the heavier the fog became, and the rolling fog gave people an ominous feeling.

"Strange, when we were outside, there was no fog and we could vaguely see the village, but when we got closer, we couldn't see it clearly." Cui Xueyan whispered, "Our mission is to at least enter Shou Village first."

No one objected.

After a while, several people walked to the entrance of the village, and an ancient stone tablet stood in front of them, with a vigorous and powerful "Shou" character engraved on it.

The weeds on the roadside covered some debris, like the remains left after the collapse of a building that had been in disrepair for a long time. There was no sound around. The damp and cold fog had a hint of decay, penetrating deep into the lungs, making people feel cold all over, and subconsciously thinking of "ghost villages".

Perhaps to ease the tense atmosphere, Zou Chong explained: "Most young people don't want to stay in the countryside, especially in such remote and backward areas. With the loss of population, the village has been abandoned over time. It is normal for it to become like this. I have seen more terrifying things than this before."

As he spoke, he walked in.

Hu Jiu and others followed and walked in. The depressed scene gradually disappeared. The half-new and half-old houses were neatly arranged, but the windows and doors were closed.

Hu Jiu looked carefully, and suddenly, he saw a pair of eyes staring at him from behind a window.

It was an old woman with white hair and a strange expression. Not only her, but it seemed that there were people watching them from behind every window around.

A regular "click" sound soon rang out on the empty street, and an old man with a cane walked towards them, "Young man, are you here for tourism?"

"We heard that this is a famous longevity town, so we came here to take a look." The one who answered was Yue Renchun, who was playing to his strengths.

"What longevity town? It's just a group of lonely elderly people. Recently, they have been hyped up and hyped, and it has become a tourist attraction." The old man was very cheerful, "There is only one guesthouse in this village. If you want to stay, come with me."

"Old man, do you know what 'hype' is?" Cui Xueyan said quickly.

The old man paused and smiled, "I heard it all from you young people..."
