No one took that team member's words seriously, because it was obviously impossible.

After getting the pillow, Gong Sichen and others continued to explore.

The pillow legend is just one of the incidents they want to investigate, and there are many strange things in Hegu Town.The special investigation team didn't have much time, and they had to find out all the problems in Hegu Town as soon as possible.

It's just that after the pillow appeared, the journey was uneventful, and nothing unusual happened.

Even the previous feeling of being watched by many pairs of eyes disappeared.

If it wasn't for the compass in Lin Jue's hand that was still turning rapidly, they would even think that the weirdness of Hegu Town had disappeared.

"Strange, why is this compass malfunctioning again?" Lin Jue patted the compass in his hand and whispered.

"Again?" Gong Sichen caught this keyword and raised his eyebrows.

[Blind student, you found Huadian! 】

[The word "again" is very spiritual! 】

[Could it be that the compass was broken in the first place?After all, this has happened more than once. 】

[So why was he unable to point in the right direction before? 】

……

Lin Jue heard Gong Sichen's questioning, and quickly explained: "Don't get me wrong! There is absolutely nothing wrong with the compass! The last time this happened to the compass, it was because we were in a ghost at that time."

Among the ghosts, the magnetic field is completely chaotic.The whole area is full of eerie, so it is impossible for the compass to point in a fixed direction.

But that was because it was a ghost, and it is normal for the compass to fail.

What happened this time?

Is the compass really broken?

"Ghost?" Hearing this, Gong Sichen looked up at the sky thoughtfully.

The team member who said that there are things under the whole Hegu Town also followed Gong Sichen's gaze and looked up at the sky.

Suddenly, I felt that the sky was dark and abnormal, just like being in a ghost.

"Team leader, do you think it is possible that we are actually in a ghost?"

Lin Jue was stunned for a moment, but quickly frowned and vetoed: "Do you know what your words mean? If this is a ghost, it means that the entire Hegu Town has been shrouded by ghosts. Do you think it is possible?

"Furthermore, have you seen anyone who can get out after entering the ghost? Those tourists before did indeed leave Hegu Town smoothly."

"But the team leader, although those tourists left, didn't they all die in the end?"

What the team members said made Lin Jue startled again.

Because he suddenly realized that maybe this team member was right.

"I think what he said makes sense." At this time, Gong Sichen also said.

Lin Jue frowned, "If what he said is correct, do you know how terrible the consequences will be?"

Gong Sichen didn't speak, but his eyes became obviously dangerous.

The other members of the special investigation team also subconsciously lowered their breathing, feeling panic and despair about this guess.

【What's wrong?What do they mean by this?Can someone come out and explain? 】

[What is a ghost? 】

[Although I didn't understand it, it seemed to be very powerful. 】

[A simple explanation is: will die. 】

[Once something like a ghost is formed, basically everyone involved will die, unless there is a big boss to kill the master of the ghost domain, the ghost will disappear.But the places where ghosts can be formed are all places where there is a near death, and the masters of the ghost domain are not ordinary ghosts, they already belong to the king of ghosts. 】

[Hold the grass!Isn't that a dead end?If Hegu Town is really a ghost creature, how strong is the master of the ghost domain for such a big ghost creature? 】

……

If this conjecture is true, they don't know how strong the Ghost Domain Master is, but it doesn't prevent them from understanding one thing - I'm afraid the entire special dispatch team can't solve this problem together.

In the silence, Lin Jue broke the stagnant atmosphere.

"Don't think about it. The situation is unclear now. It may not be what we think. Maybe it's just that the compass is broken."

At this time, he would rather admit that his compass was broken than hope that his previous guess would come true.

"Forget it, since the compass is not accurate, let's go here tonight and go back to rest first. I will find a way to ask the residents of the town to ask about the situation during the day tomorrow."

Lin Jue put away the compass, and the group headed home.

Back at the residence, Lin Jue looked at Liu Xi who still had no signs of waking up, frowned and asked Gong Sichen, "When will Liu Xi wake up?"

Gong Sichen shook his head, "I don't know, maybe I'll wake up tomorrow morning."

Lin Jue was a little uneasy, "What's wrong with him? If he's tired, he won't be unable to wake up like this, right?"

"He spent a lot of spiritual power to help me seal the things that entered my body, and it may take a while to recover." Gong Sichen explained.

Lin Jue knew about spiritual power, and it was not that simple to replenish it.

This explanation is acceptable.

"Then let's see if I can wake up tomorrow? If not, we'll go back first and wait for Liu Xi to recover."

Everyone returned to their rooms, and the live broadcast room was still open.

Without the interaction of Lin Jue and others, the audience who stayed in the live broadcast room also quit the live broadcast room one after another.Only some courageous ones were left, watching the dim live broadcast room and still looking forward to the exciting scene.

In the middle of the night, Gong Sichen and Liu Xi's room.

Gong Sichen lay beside Liu Xi, with his eyes closed, he seemed to be asleep.

Something was moving slowly in the darkness, like a figure, or a black tide.

Until something stayed beside Gong Sichen's pillow, slowly condensing into the shape of a human face bit by bit.

There were two lines of blood and tears from the eye sockets on the face of the pale man, and there was an expression of sadness and joy on his face, which looked particularly frightening and terrifying.

The grimace slowly opened its mouth to Gong Sichen, as if it wanted to swallow Gong Sichen in one gulp.

At this moment, Gong Sichen, who had his eyes closed, suddenly opened them, and a red color flashed past.

The next second, a shrill scream came from Gong Sichen and Liu Xi's room.

The sharp voice woke up everyone in the reception hall, and all members of the special dispatch team quickly stood up and drew out their weapons.

Lin Jue immediately came to Gong Sichen's door.

"Gong Sichen! Are you okay?"

[Hold the grass, hold the grass!What the hell?Scared me! 】

【Oh shit!I was about to fall asleep, and suddenly there was such a sound, my soul was going to scare me away QAQ]

【Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I would have quit!This is too scary! 】

【Stimulate!I knew something was going to happen tonight!The pillow is not for nothing! 】

……

The people in the live broadcast room were startled awake by the sound and had different reactions.

Lin Jue was at the door asking about Gong Sichen's situation in the room, and with my Spirit Spear in my hand, I was ready to rush in to save people at any time.

"It's okay, I caught a mouse." Gong Sichen's voice came from inside the door, his voice sounded steady and unaffected at all.

The people outside the door let out a sigh of relief.

Just as he was about to continue asking, the door opened from the inside.

Gong Sichen came out neatly dressed, holding an unknown creature twisting its body and trying to escape.

"What is this?" Lin Jue asked with a frown.

He looked at it, but didn't see what it was.

Gong Sichen: "The so-called pillow face."

[Hold the grass!real or fake?Ghostface caught? 】

【What is this?It looks so disgusting! 】

【etc!Ghost face is not a ghost?what is this? 】

【really?Is it so easy to grab?The victims before that were too bad. 】

[The one in front doesn't feel pain in the back while standing and talking, the previous victims are all ordinary people, are Gong Sichen and the others ordinary people?Are you kidding me? 】

……

Gong Sichen raised the thing in his hand, and pulled it away with both hands.

Only then did everyone realize that it really looked like a human face.

【Huh!So ugly! 】

【What is this?shameless? 】

……

Lin Jue's expression changed, "Human skin?"

"Well, it should be a painted skin ghost." Gong Sichen nodded and said, "Some Taoists are really hard to catch for ordinary ascetics."

If it wasn't for his high morals and precautions early in the morning, he would have almost let this thing escape just now.

Lin Jue frowned and said, "Why is there a painted skin ghost in Hegu Town? How high do you see this painted skin ghost?"

Gong Sichen thought for a while and said, "It's hard to say the exact age, but a few of them must be over a hundred years old."

"So long?" Lin Jue asked in surprise.

But thinking about it carefully, Hegu Town has existed for a hundred years. If the Painted Skin Ghost had already existed when Hegu Town appeared, it seemed to make sense.

At this time, someone suddenly posted an important content in the barrage.

[I checked the history of Hegu Town in the afternoon. Hegu Town suddenly appeared more than 200 years ago, and there were almost no records about this place before that.But a long time ago, about eight or nine hundred years ago, the area of ​​Hegu Town seemed to be a place of a tribe called Hewu.It is said that this tribe was famous for witchcraft in the past, and there was a famous great wizard in history. 】

[But then something happened, the great wizard suddenly disappeared, and the Hewu tribe also seemed to disappear suddenly one day.After that, there was no record about this place in the history books, until more than 200 years ago, a group of people stayed here, and then there was Hegu Town. 】

【So amazing?Haven't seen this paragraph in the history books at all? ? ? 】

[It can't be fake, right? 】

[Then I said another paragraph, you may have an impression.You should know a very famous king in history. He killed his brothers and his father with the technique of being tired of victory. 】

【I know!The most famous tyrant King Heyou in the history books! 】

【right!it's him!It is said that the Hewu tribe is the place where he lived when he was young, and it is also the mother tribe of his mother.Later, it was recorded that during the time of King Heyou, the royal tomb was built in a certain place in the Hewu tribe. 】

【Then if Hegu Town is the original Hewu tribe, doesn't that mean that King Heyou's mausoleum is here? ! 】

[Hold the grass!real or fake? !There really isn't a king's tomb under the ground, is there? 】

[You will know if you dig it out! 】

[But... what does this have to do with Painted Skin Ghost? 】

……

"No, it has a lot to do with it!" Lin Jue said to the science popularization netizen in the barrage, "Thanks to science popularization, this information is very useful to us!"

After finishing speaking, he looked back at Gong Sichen, "If this is really the former Hewu tribe, things will be more complicated."
