The Psychic Resurrection: Riding the Mirage

Chapter 44 Turns out to be an acquaintance

A sleepless night.

The next morning, Hu Jiu opened the curtains and looked outside. The sun was shining, the sky was clear, and a few sparrows flew past. If you ignore their deformities, it is indeed a beautiful picture.

Chirp--

A lump of mud was covered with bird feathers and made a crisp sound. Perhaps in their cognition, they were still just ordinary sparrows.

If the monsters were just ugly but harmless to humans, there was no need to be afraid. There were too many strange creatures in the deep sea.

However, they themselves carried supernatural pollution, especially those in bird form. Once they flew out of the city, would the pollution spread on a large scale?

Hu Jiu did not have the slightest concern for the country and the people. Instead, he thought about how to use this matter to gain benefits.

Later, he would check the lunatics in this city who talked nonsense all day long.

The supernatural events in Yuzhou City are very troublesome. If you are not careful, the whole city will be destroyed. The situation has deteriorated to this point. The residents have become monsters that are neither human nor ghost. Logically, this place should have been in chaos long ago.

But the fact is just the opposite. The city is still running in an orderly manner. The humans who have become monsters still feel that they are still normal people and live a normal life as before.

However, there are always some exceptions that are not affected and can see the truth. The people in Yuzhou City have become monsters. They see through everything, but for other "people", those who discover the truth are simply going crazy for no reason.

The guy who talked nonsense on the road yesterday shouted a lot of crazy things before he had a car accident.

If a person suddenly sees that he and the people around him have mutated, others are unaware, and only he alone notices the change, then this person's psychology and spirit will definitely be tortured, and it is normal to go crazy.

Hu Jiu is looking for such a madman to understand the situation.

When he walked out of the hotel, the front desk staff had turned into a pile of abstract objects, with white teeth rubbing on the mud, and two eyeballs rolling around, scanning the "people" coming and going.

Today is the Cultural Festival. When passing by the Central Square, Hu Jiu seemed to see a night parade of hundreds of ghosts. Monsters dressed up like dancing. It should be a cosplay carnival. The weird pictures intertwined and entangled, like a feast in hell. Coupled with the giant puppets floating in the sky, there is no more terrifying scene than this.

Hu Jiu stood among a group of monsters, looking like an alien.

He was trying to find a normal person, or a relatively normal one.

But there was none.

Those who took pictures, watched, cheered, and posed were all monsters. Dots of mud fell from them, and the whole square became dirty.

Hu Jiu could not appreciate such underworld art, so he walked away. He wanted to go to the mental hospital. In the early stage of the outbreak of supernatural phenomena, maybe someone who saw through the truth would be sent to the hospital as a lunatic?

It was easy to use violence to break into the mental hospital, but Hu Jiu did not find the target he was looking for.

When he returned, Hu Jiu saw that the cultural festival in the central square had reached its climax. Countless humanoid monsters wrapped in silt gathered together and formed a circle. In the middle stood... a normal person.

It was just normal on the surface.

It was a man in his thirties, wearing a neat formal suit, surrounded by conspicuous pink mist. The silt gathered from all directions to form a high platform. The man stepped on it, changing his limbs with unheard-of movements, and the flowing water was full of weirdness.

The monsters under the stage also danced with their hands and feet. There was a little delicate pink in the middle of the endless filth, forming a strong contrast between the two.

Hu Jiu suddenly had an urge to dance with them. This was very wrong. He lowered his head and stopped looking at the man.

He saw the mist slowly spreading and sweeping away the monsters.

The monsters that were close to each other merged together, like human centipedes. The "centipedes" of all sizes connected to each other and melted. The ground turned into a quagmire. Ferocious faces emerged from it, seeming to wail and enjoy.

That man might be the culprit of the change in Yuzhou City!

Today's cultural festival seemed like some kind of ritual. Yesterday, I could still meet relatively normal people in the restaurant, but now I guess I can't find any.

As for the purpose of this ritual, Hu Jiu couldn't guess.

The pink fog covered the sky and spread very quickly. Despite the protection of the ghost book, Hu Jiu still used white silk to wrap himself into an airtight zongzi to reduce the consumption of the ghost book.

In order to avoid the quagmire on the ground, he quickly entered an unmanned high-rise residential building, blocked the doors and windows, and observed from a distance through the glass window.

The silt was piled up layer by layer, and soon submerged the entire central square. The people who originally gathered here to participate in the cultural festival became sacrifices, and a steady stream of citizens gathered here from afar.

Their bodies were cracked open one after another. There was no flesh and blood under the cracks, only dark mud. More and more people entered the mud, their bodies disintegrated and became part of the mud.

Some chaotic whispers could be heard faintly in the ears, like some kind of spiritual pollution.

Gradually, the mud began to converge to the center, and the texture of wood fiber appeared on the surface, forming a cocoon-like object bit by bit.

The huge cocoon trembled, as if it was gestating some kind of demon that would destroy the world.

The pink mist around was getting thicker and thicker, as if it was protecting the giant cocoon. It gradually condensed and eventually became more than one person tall. The terrifying aura rose rapidly, and Hu Jiu, who was watching from a distance, felt a little palpitating.

The whole process was too fast, like a volcano that suddenly erupted after accumulating to a certain extent.

Crack——

Something was hitting violently inside, and a crack soon appeared on the cocoon. A pair of slender palms stretched out along the crack and exerted force on both sides.

Accompanied by a crisp sound, the cocoon broke.

A naked, thin young man walked out from inside.

The distance was too far, and Hu Jiu could not see his face clearly, but he caught a glimpse of a familiar, charming and gorgeous blue, which was the fire reflected by the gem necklace he wore in the sun.

"Yue Renchun, is that you?"

The young man seemed to notice Hu Jiu's gaze, turned his head and looked in Hu Jiu's direction. A pink light flashed, and he disappeared on the spot and teleported to the high-rise residential building where Hu Jiu was.

It was indeed Yue Renchun.

There was a smile on that pretty face, but it soon disappeared because... Hu Jiu was not there.

The room was empty, Yue Renchun looked solemn, he couldn't believe that he was so powerful, but someone could slip away quietly under his nose?

"Old Hu? I know you are here, we are friends who have lived together for life, come out and meet each other?"

Yue Renchun waited quietly, he didn't know if Hu Jiu had left, he just opened his mouth to trick him.

"Don't try to get close to me, I don't know you."

Hu Jiu's voice came from the left, Yue Renchun looked around, and saw no one.

"Did you lead the supernatural incident in Yuzhou City?" Hu Jiu asked, his voice was far away and near.

"Don't talk nonsense." Yue Renchun denied it, and at the same time released a pink supernatural mist around him, beautiful and weird.

"I found you!"

He rushed to the window. Although he couldn't see, he could feel the breath of the living. He stretched out his hand and grabbed it fiercely...

A dark purple light shot out, and Yue Renchun was instantly frozen.

Hu Jiu appeared with a cold face, holding a flashlight in his hand.

Yue Renchun's pupils suddenly shrank, and he tried his best to activate all kinds of supernatural powers in his body, but he could only move like a snail, which was better than nothing.

Hu Jiu looked calm on the surface, but he was shocked in his heart. He thought Yue Renchun had died a long time ago, but now he was not only standing in front of him alive, but he could even resist under the illumination of the strange flashlight.

——The ghost controlled by Yue Renchun is very fierce!

Watching Yue Renchun struggling endlessly with cold eyes, until his mentality collapsed slightly and a faint look of despair appeared on his face, Hu Jiu calmly turned off the flashlight, with a calm and confident face, especially when he saw Yue Renchun retreating in panic, the false calm and confidence suddenly became real.

"I'm sorry to meet you again under such circumstances. Do you want to put on some clothes first?"

Hearing Hu Jiu's teasing words, Yue Renchun tore a piece of curtain and wrapped himself in doubt.

"I thought you died in Shou Village. It seems... you will have good fortune after surviving a disaster." Hu Jiu's tone was calm and his mood was subtle.

It's more painful to see others take advantage than to suffer losses yourself!

Yue Renchun quickly adjusted his mentality and was cheerful, as if the embarrassment just now did not exist at all, "It's just good luck, not worth mentioning."

"Isn't this worth mentioning? Yuzhou City has caused a huge commotion. I'm afraid everyone in the city has died?" Hu Jiu felt that this incident could be defined as S-level.

"The headquarters won't know." Yue Renchun only said this.

"???" Hu Jiu raised his eyebrows, "How are you going to bribe me?"

Bribe? Yue Renchun smiled bitterly. Originally, this option did not exist. He escaped from the Peng family mansion and was lucky to control several powerful ghosts at the same time. Unfortunately, his state was very unstable and he might get out of control at any time.

He quietly returned to his nest, but found that the headquarters could not wait to send people to take over everything from him. How could he bear this?

It happened that he needed to use some special means to stabilize the ghosts in his body, and Su Jinghang, the little bitch, was controlled by him on the spot.

At first, he did not expect that things would become so big. Ghost Dance, Ghost Swamp, Ghost, Peach Blossom Evil and other messy curses were entangled with each other in his body, looking for a balance point. Just like kneading dough, adding flour when there is too much water, and adding water when there is too much flour. If you are not careful, it will overflow.

The silt under the lake, the water source and air in the city are all polluted by the supernatural. The citizens who come into contact with it will have distorted cognition and will not have the idea of ​​leaving the city. They will ignore all abnormal phenomena, maintain the surface harmony and peace, and eventually become a half-human monster.

Although many innocent people were sacrificed, it didn't matter. He destroyed a city in an attempt to control the evil spirit. As long as he succeeded, the headquarters would forgive him. Besides, Su Jinghang took the blame for him. He manipulated Su Jinghang to jump up and down like a clown, which was originally used to attract ridicule.

When Hu Jiu was on the lake and had not yet entered Yuzhou City by boat, Yue Renchun already knew that he was coming. He originally wanted to erode and control him imperceptibly, just like he treated Ye Songlan and Su Jinghang.

Unfortunately, he never succeeded.

After successfully solving the hidden danger of the evil spirit in his body, Yue Renchun thought he had stood at the top of the domestic supernatural circle. He wanted to subdue Hu Jiu with violence, but he was slapped in the face.

His floating mentality was immediately beaten back to his original form. At this moment, Yue Renchun did not dare to be impulsive. He saw it when he was in Shou Village. Hu Jiu was too mysterious and had endless trump cards.

It took a lot of effort for him to get to where he is today. Is it necessary to fight to the death with someone who doesn't know his true identity?

Yue Renchun comforted himself as quickly as possible, suppressed the feeling of shame and humiliation, and said to Hu Jiu with a smile: "Let's cooperate."

Hu Jiu thought for a while and walked down the steps. He was not sure that he could kill the other party, otherwise he would have killed him and silenced him long ago. "How do you want to cooperate?"

"Yuzhou City is in such a bad state now, someone should take responsibility. The new person in charge, Su Jinghang, is so happy with his achievements, he engages in personality worship, and often shows off his power in public. As a result, he accidentally caused the evil spirit to resurrect, causing harm Countless people, it was me, the former person in charge who came back in time, and Mr. Hu who worked together to turn the tide and resolve this crisis!" Yue Renchun told the story meaningfully.

Hu Jiu smiled: "Very good, but I think Su Jinghang alone may not be able to cause such a serious supernatural disaster. I suspect that he colluded with Beifeng Commune and Qiangwei Security Company. This group of people has evil intentions. In order to satisfy their illegal behavior, Trying to secretly create local separatism, split and destroy the unity of the country..."

Yue Renchun was startled and looked at Hu Jiu with eyes full of meaning.

"Too many extra dramas can easily be seen as a frame-up."

Hu Jiu waved his hand: "It depends on you. After all, you can control an entire city's people to act, and I was fooled by you. Don't worry, the headquarters sent me to investigate this time, and I will do my best to report on the subsequent investigation." Cooperate with you."

Yue Renchun rolled his eyes. He didn't have the energy to control a huge crowd. It was too difficult, at least he couldn't do it now. He uses cultural festivals to bring people together in order to reduce consumption. Once the number of people being controlled increases sharply, the intensity of control will decrease. He can only issue simple instructions and hints to let those "ghosts" act independently. The citizens of Yuzhou City abide by Yue Renchun's instructions - they cannot leave, ignore abnormalities, and still maintain normal social order. They still maintain a certain degree of thinking ability at other times. This process may even break out of control and wake up.

However, Yue Renchun would not expose his shortcomings in front of Hu Jiu. Most of his energy was used to balance the evil spirits and control Su Jinghang and the police officers in order to deceive the superiors and conceal the inferiors. When his attention is distracted, there will inevitably be omission.

For example, Ye Songlan, the ambitious little follower, woke up and realized something was wrong. Unfortunately, she overestimated her abilities and went in the wrong direction, which again attracted Yue Renchun's special attention.

There are several ghosts in Yue Renchun's body that are aimed at consciousness. He has been trying to influence Hu Jiu ever since he came to this city. The water body was polluted, and you would be infected if you ate food, but Hu Jiu just ignored the dinner arranged by Sun Miao, without even taking a sip of water, and the pink mist with supernatural pollution in the air had no effect. All of the above made Yue Renchun extremely fearful. He was taught a lesson by Hu Jiu's purple beam just now. Seeing Hu Jiu's effortless behavior, Yue Renchun's mind has changed.

As the saying goes, if you want to go far, you have to go in a group. Yue Renchun is happy to cooperate with strong people for win-win results.

Isn't it just a frame-up?

Little things!

The two plotted carefully for a while. Yue Renchun did not ask Hu Jiu why he targeted Beifeng Commune and Qiangwei Security Company, and Hu Jiu did not explore Yue Yunchun's secret.

In the end, the two negotiated a satisfactory result.

Hu Jiu didn't stay long, turned around and left. He took Wang Xianhui with him. This was the key "witness". Her statement may be more effective than Hu Jiu's mission report.

It wasn't until he completely left Yuzhou City that he breathed a sigh of relief. When facing Yue Renchun, he actually had no confidence. He relied on his sense of mystery to prop up his "master" aura and bluff the opponent.

He didn't know whether the supernatural pollution would spread with Wang Xianhui, or whether Yue Renchun had other conspiracies. Hu Jiu guessed that he seemed to have controlled the ghost, but he probably didn't know how much importance the headquarters attached to the ghost.

If you want to fly high, you can only fly alone. Although you temporarily cooperate with Yue Renchun, Hu Jiu doesn't mind betraying him.

Knowing that Yue Renchun is still alive, the headquarters will definitely pay close attention to him, which is barely good news for Hu Jiu.

Extremely strange changes are taking place in the central square of Yuzhou City.

Yue Renchun stood in front. The mud surged under his feet and turned into a swamp again. Pieces of wooden tumors rose from the ground and turned into twisted and deformed "trees". The branches grew and spread, and the branches produced plump fruits. Facial features gradually appeared on the surface of the fruit, and turned into heads that were laughing and cursing!

The fruits ripened, the heads fell to the ground, the mud turned into bodies, and they were pieced together into complete human beings. They walked out of the swamp. They were all citizens of Yuzhou City. This dead city came to life again!

The gray-haired woman stood behind Yue Renchun, holding a set of men's clothing with a stiff expression and respect.

Yue Renchun gently stroked her face: "If you want to be my illegitimate fan, I will make it happen for you."

He changed the rags on his body as if no one else was around, a flash of contemplation flashed in his lowered eyes, and his ability to sense misfortunes and blessings was warning again...
