Ye Chi: "..."

[Ding, congratulations on becoming the first player in the world to experience "Gate of Unbounded", I wish you a happy game. 】

Ye Chi: "...what the hell?"

[Please select the operating language: ancient Chinese, middle ancient Chinese, modern Chinese, ghost language. 】

Ye Chi: "What is a ghost language—he Fang monster, you have the ability to pretend that you have the ability to come out!"

[Operation delay, the system automatically recognizes it as modern Chinese, the game is being generated, please wait. 】

……

Ye Chi caught up with the fashion and traveled across time.

He was born at the entrance of a village, and when he opened his eyes, all he saw were quaint and old houses, with gray brick walls and gray tile roofs, huddled together in twos and threes.The road beside the house looks like a spider's legs, and it can go anywhere.

There was a stone pier at the entrance of the village, hiding shyly and timidly in the weeds. Ye Chi stretched out his hand to push aside the grass blades, and saw three words engraved on it: Miaoqian Village.

He stood speechless for a moment, looked up at the bright sun above his head, looked down at the loess at the bottom of his feet, then pulled at his frightening long black curly hair, and sighed resignedly: "Hey, fate is too good to go anywhere. There are moths."

After Ye Chi sighed, he was just about to enter the village to see how amazing this moth is, when the system sound suddenly rang directly in his mind.

[Accept the task: There are ghosts in the village. 】

Ye Chi put down his half-lifted leg, and finally said angrily, "Do you dare to say it again!"

Although the system gave him a lot of face, he really didn't dare.

The anger went into a dead end and extinguished, Ye Chi cried out bitterly, it was okay to wear the game for no reason, but it was this kind of task that clearly told you "Please be prepared to rush to the street while the bento is heating up".

He shivered under the scorching sun, already thinking in his heart: If it is dangerous, I will run away, if it is a serious task, I will not do it!

He entered the village full of worries, and at the head of the village, he met an old woman with arched back and white hair. The old woman was leaning on a three-fingered yellow wooden walking stick, the tip of which was smooth and moist to the touch.She may be old, and she walks very slowly. After taking two steps, she has to rest, beat her back, and then continue walking.Ye Chi hurried over, did not dare to help him, and asked politely, "Dare to ask my mother-in-law, is there a ghost in the village making trouble?"

Ye Chi thought that she was just an npc. After playing games for so many years, he still understood how to ask npcs to collect mission information.

The old woman raised her head when she heard the sound. It was an old face with haggard skin and lines.He is now wearing a shoddy novice uniform, which complements this dilapidated village very well. It looks like a painting style at first glance, but he looks so handsome that he can catch the eye even if he makes do.

The old woman didn't seem to understand what he said, and asked him loudly, "What did you say?"

Ye Chi could only repeat it once. The old woman pondered for a while, then said kindly, "What did you say?"

Ye Chi: "..." Is this the npc's regular reply or the npc's regular reply?Forget it, let's ask someone else.He thought, what kind of broken game is this, the npc is not intelligent, so what's the use of making it realistic!

Ye Chi passed the old woman and walked straight to the village. The old woman leaned on a cane and looked at his back from a distance, and finally shook her head, "Hey, the young man is impatient now, the old woman is not good at hearing, so I can't talk anymore. Louder." She sighed again, lowered her head again, trembling, tapped the road twice with her cane, and walked away alone.

……

The roads in the village have nine twists and eighteen bends, and the largest fork can lead to eight roads, which is simply amazing!Fortunately, it has limited space, Ye Chi wandered around in a daze for a while, and finally turned to a busy street.To say that the street is an exaggeration, this road is the place where villagers use to exchange goods, and the number of people can reach double digits.Ye Chi asked an old man selling salted fish nearby, "Uncle, is the village haunted?"

Hearing his question, the old man's expression changed. After looking at him carefully for a while, he suddenly realized, "The young man is from Wujieshan? I got the letter, I didn’t expect it to arrive so soon—great! Now we’re saved.” Ye Chi just wanted to say that he was just a passerby and had never seen a ghost since he was a child, but the old man had already yelled away, "Everyone, come quickly, people from Wujie Mountain are coming!"

Ye Chi: "..." Can you give him a chance to explain?

Since the game is called "The Gate of Unbounded", I also know that Wujieshan is as imposing as the Forbidden City here, and there is someone dressed as shabby as him!He didn't even believe it himself!

But they all believed it...

After a while, people from the whole street gathered around, and Ye Chi was watched by them stretching their necks and poking their heads. Seeing that the eyes were beaming with joy, he swallowed back the words that came to his mouth inexplicably, and asked Said, "I don't know what's going on?"

The crowd immediately explained everything in a hurry. The old men and the old women spoke louder than each other, and poured a piece of chicken and dog into his ears, until he heard his ears buzzing, and he had to pretend to be gentle with a smiling face. .

Miaoqian Village, as the name suggests, there is a Bodhisattva temple in front of the village, which has protected the peace of the village for generations, but it has been destroyed for many years, so it is not counted.

"It happened just two months ago. On that day, the butcher Zhang's son married his wife. It was very lively. As long as you say auspicious words, everyone can ask for a glass of wedding wine, and the whole village is full of joy. However, on that night, Zhang The butcher's family was caught in an accident, and the ghost was haunted! The ghost came and went without a trace, without any movement, and no one noticed it. Until the next day at noon, there was no movement in his house, and the neighbors went to the house. I knocked on the door of his house, but no one answered, and when the door opened, the corpses lying all over the floor inside were completely cold!"

The aunt continued, "It's scary. I've seen it with my own eyes. Butcher Zhang was even more miserable. He was cut into pieces and his eyes were gouged out. His death was not a good one. I did it." A night of nightmares!"

Hearing this, Ye Chi broke out in cold sweat. If it was such a powerful thing, he didn't even have a novice weapon, wouldn't killing him be as easy as cutting melons and vegetables?He bite the bullet and said, "Then what happened next?"

"His family died strangely, and the people in the village were panic-stricken. Someone suggested to worship in the temple, and prayed to the Bodhisattva to bless us again. But a strange thing happened. No one could pass through the dilapidated temple gate. Some people said that the temple has been around for so many years. There is no one to worship and clean up. I am afraid that I have offended the Bodhisattva and refused to control us. What else can I do? I just hope that the ghost will leave after eating. For a long time, everyone dare not sleep at night. , After half a month like this, nothing bad happened again. We thought that the ghost had really left, so we gradually felt relieved, but we didn’t expect—”

The aunt hurriedly said again, "Just half a month ago, another one died!"

Ye Chi asked, "How did you die?"

The aunt said, "How else can I die? It must have been killed by the ghost. There is no wound on the body, and the soul is gone. Who else has this ability except the ghost?"

Ye Chi swallowed, "What you said makes sense."

The aunt said, "Young Xia, you must make the decision for us. The ghost has disturbed our peace. Two people died in the past two days. The corpses are still in Yizhuang and have not been buried. How about I take you to see them?" look?"

Ye Chi hurriedly said, "No need!"

At this time, a rooster crowed suddenly from not far away, and Ye Chi was startled. A young man had already shouted, "Ouch, my chicken!"

Ye Chi glanced at it, and it turned out to be a big rooster with its feet tied up waiting to be slaughtered. While no one was watching it, it was bouncing around in an attempt to escape from the prison, so it lost its balance and fell.Just as Ye Chi was relieved, there was another ping-pong sound of touching something. He looked over again, and this time it was a thin and small boy who knocked over a long table with a stall and fell to the ground.An old woman hurriedly went to pull him up. Ye Chi saw that the woman's outstretched hand was as thin as a stick and shaped like a chicken's claw, which was very scary.Immediately asked, "Who is that?"

Someone nearby said, "Widow Wang, that stupid one is her son Ba'er, who was frightened by ghosts."

Ye Chi was taken aback, "Ghosts are scary? Didn't they mean no one saw them?"

"No one saw it before, but then the ghost became more and more rampant and came out to scare people. It's nothing to adults, but there are always children talking nonsense, saying that someone is playing with them at night. When asked about their appearance, they either said they had a long tongue or they were big The head, in short, is not a clean thing, it must have been changed by that ghost."

Ye Chi stared at Widow Wang and his son, and nodded vaguely.The widow Wang didn't need anyone's help, she took a lot of effort to help her son up.Ye Chi saw that his son was walking slowly, with a dazed expression, he really looked like a fool, his clothes were a little disheveled, Widow Wang lifted his bony arms and helped him to straighten his collar.Ye Chi looked a little unexplainably awkward, and after thinking about it, he realized that Ba'er's collar was too high, reaching to his ears, and half of his chin was buried in it.

Widow Wang was about to leave with her son, Ye Chi hurriedly left the crowd to catch up, "Old man, let me ask you something."

Widow Wang didn't seem to hear, she dragged her son and continued to walk slowly, Ye Chi had no choice but to hurry up to stop them, and asked bluntly, "What does a ghost look like?"

Only then did Widow Wang stop and raised her head to look at him. Ye Chi saw that she was actually older than the old woman she met at the entrance of the village, and her eyes were so cloudy that it was almost impossible to distinguish the eyeballs.Widow Wang's withered lips opened and closed slightly, her voice was old and weak, "The old lady has never seen it before."

Ye Chi said, "But your son has seen it."

Widow Wang seemed to snort, she stopped talking to Ye Chi, pulled her son around him and walked away, Ye Chi followed behind slowly, "You don't want to know who he is because the ghost made your son like this? "

Hearing his words, Widow Wang glanced sideways at him, seeing a layer of white sweat on Ye Chi's back for no reason, but she quickly turned her face away again, only an old voice came faintly, "There is an injustice and a debtor. My old lady advises you not to mind your own business." Ye Chi didn't dare to follow them any more, and watched them go away thoughtfully, until the figures of the two disappeared among the criss-crossing houses.
