Chapter 421 Empathy
Meng Zhe saw that Song Jiang was always obsessed with helping that ghost, so he sighed, "If you really want to return this thing to that ghost, it's very easy... I just asked, and the ancient culture exhibition went to the next city. , just over an hour’s drive away.”

Song Jiang immediately said happily when he heard it, "Okay, then let's go over now...see if we can find that ghost."

When the two rushed to the next city, they happened to be in time for the exhibition staff to eat at noon, so they didn't even have a guide when they entered, but even so, Song Jiang and the others still spent money to buy tickets and left in a hurry go in...

The exhibits in this ancient culture exhibition are indeed rough imitations, as the staff of the art gallery said before, because any genuine products of this level must be kept in a museum with constant temperature and humidity Yes, how could it be possible for them to carry around the exhibition like this? !

With Song Jiang's eyesight, he couldn't tell the truth from the fake, so Meng Zhe was the one who walked ahead and searched all the way. In the end, he really saw a tattered portrait of a totem, and Meng Zhe could tell at a glance that it was nothing. Animal leather, but a genuine human skin...

"You said it was human skin? How is it possible?" Song Jiang said in shock.

Meng Zhe said indifferently, "This was very common in some tribes of serfdom in ancient times..."

After hearing this, Song Jiang looked around and said, "Do you think the organizer knows this is a piece of human skin?"

At this time, Meng Zhe took a closer look at the human skin totem, and found that it turned out to be an evil god from ancient times, so he shook his head and said, "I'm afraid I don't know... I guess they should be taken as fakes. And I'm afraid the organizers themselves can't tell the origin of this totem image, otherwise they wouldn't dare to release it so blatantly."

"Do you know what's on it?" Song Jiang asked curiously.

Meng Zhe nodded and said, "This is the ancient evil god Harovo, who was often worshiped as a god by some aboriginal tribes of the Southern Man as early as thousands of years ago. They often sacrificed living people, and the methods were extremely cruel... Such an evil god was drawn on human skin. There is nothing unusual about it.”

At this moment, Song Jiang thought of the ghost who asked him for help without a tongue, coupled with his clothes, it was hard not to associate him with the human skin totem in front of him...

"Could this be that guy's... skin?" Song Jiang felt a chill in his heart.

After hearing this, Meng Zhe said, "You will know if it is after dark. You should take out that note and compare it to see if the words on it are the same!"

As soon as Song Jiang heard this, he quickly took out the note from his pocket. After a careful comparison, he was almost sure that the ancient characters on the totem image and the words on the note in his hand belonged to the same type of characters. It's just that the content of the text is different.

There are 424 exhibits in this ancient culture exhibition. It only took less than an hour for Song Jiang and Meng Zhe to look at all the exhibits. It was still early before dark, so Song Jiang proposed to go out for something to eat first. After dark, come back to find that ghost.

Meng Zhe has no objection to this, after all, in his opinion, these fakes are indeed nothing to look at.So the two found a small restaurant nearby and ate something casually. After dark, they walked leisurely back to the exhibition hall where the human skin totem statue was placed before.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the two of them arrived at the entrance of the exhibition hall, they saw that the whole building was enveloped in a puff of black air. At the same time, Song Jiang saw a somewhat familiar figure rushing towards the entrance of the exhibition hall...

The other party's outfit was so recognizable that Song Jiang recognized at a glance that the figure was the owner of the note, so he wanted to hurry over and return the note to him, but Meng Zhe grabbed him and said, "Don't In the past, that guy has too much resentment now, and if he continues like this, he may become a ghost who attacks indiscriminately."

But Song Jiang thought that the reason why the other party became like this was probably related to the note in his hand, maybe returning it to him would calm him down?So he immediately held up the note in his hand and shouted, "Hey! I'm here to return your note!"

Sure enough, as soon as Song Jiang's voice fell, the ghost was attracted by the note in his hand, and he tried his best to reach out to get it, but for some reason, he couldn't get out of the door of the exhibition hall... Song Jiang ran immediately when he saw it Passed over and handed the note to the other party.

The moment he got the note, the strong resentment immediately faded a lot, and after seeing Song Jiang's face clearly, the ghost recognized him, and then kept bowing to him, thanking him. He handed the note back to himself.

Song Jiang saw that this note should be more important to him than his life, and he realized that he really came to the right place this time, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately, I found you, otherwise I would still worry about where to find you !"

Meng Zhe saw that it was too troublesome for the two of them to talk in one door and one outside the door, so he waved lightly, and the chain lock on the door of the exhibition hall opened automatically, "Let's go in and talk, don't stand at the door, and scare me again." Pedestrian."

Then "two people and one ghost" returned to the totem image, and then stared at each other, not knowing how to communicate with each other for a while.The dumb ghost was obviously also in a hurry, he kept gesticulating and drawing, and kept saying "ah... ah... ah ah".

Unfortunately, neither Song Jiang nor Meng Zhe understood what he meant...

"I'm so anxious, why can't I speak even if I'm a ghost?" Song Jiang said a little irritably.

Meng Zhe said amusedly when he heard it, "Who said that turning into a ghost can get rid of your own defects? Besides, this guy should have had his tongue cut off right after he was born...so he never speaks."

Song Jiang felt a little uncomfortable when he heard this, but this also strengthened his determination to help the other party, "Then what should I do? I really want to know what he wants me to do for him."

After hearing this, Meng Zhe glanced at Song Jiang and said, "Are you sure you want to know!?"

"Of course! Hurry up and help me think about it!" Song Jiang said urgently.

Meng Zhe sighed at this moment and said, "There is no way, but you may experience what happened to him personally... You should think about it."

"What's the matter? Isn't it just seeing what he has experienced from his perspective?" Song Jiang said indifferently.

But Meng Zhe shook his head and said, "Not only can you see with your eyes, but you can also empathize with yourself...so you have to think about it."
