Haunted Places Live

The five elders left one after another on the second day after completing the scarring ceremony, but Lin Qi chose to stay with Chu Yang and continue to wait and see how Chu Yang was doing for a few days.Also because there are surveillance cameras installed everywhere in the mansion, it is convenient for him to monitor the surrounding situation, and maybe he can see the man who followed Chu Yang again.And Lynch also got into the monitoring room every day, and stayed there for several hours, as if he would not stop until he caught that man.

To be honest, Chu Yang didn't expect Lynch to be so angry, as if he was protecting a calf.

It's just a pity that two days passed, and that man didn't show up again.

Lin Qi had no choice but to ask Chu Yang about the man's appearance in detail, and then sent a message to several numbers, asking them to assist in the investigation of this person, to see if it was radicalism in the other three organizations, or even those small organizations that acted secretly. By.

Chu Yang has been fidgeting for the past two days, and has to look out the window from time to time.Just at this moment, he turned off the light in the room, hid his body behind the wine-red velvet curtain, and stared at the silent night and the solemn and dark forest outside the window.Because his eyes were staring too hard, the number of blinks decreased, and the contact lenses became dry and irritated, causing the cornea to hurt.He closed his eyes with some discomfort, but opened them again, and continued to try to distinguish all the shadowy shapes in the dark night.

Butler Liao Jingxuan knocked on the open door lightly, "Mr. Chu, dinner is ready."

Chu Yang turned around and nodded politely to him, "Thank you, I'll go down right away."

After the butler left, he looked out a few more times before he let out a long breath and closed the curtains.

In the past two days, he has entered almost every room in this mansion. The precious paintings, sculptures, and antiques displayed everywhere make him feel strange, like some strings in his mind are being twitched, and then he will There are countless strange and coquettish music lingering in his mind, lingering like earworms, and sometimes it is even difficult to think about other things.His fingertips began to itch frequently, wanting to touch the strings, to feel the subtle tremors in the wood resonance, and to turn the chaotic musical notes in his mind into real tunes.Countless chaotic thoughts were like tangled strands of hair, making him unable to tell what they were.

At the same time, his chest began to have some kind of faint pain and... a weird creeping feeling.Those sinuous things protruding under his skin writhed like earthworms, and he could almost hear the sticky and wet sound of wriggling.

Whenever this happened, he forced himself to walk away quickly, or stop looking at the artwork.Nor did he dare to listen to the vinyl next to the gramophone, for the music he was almost sure would make his symptoms worse.

Maybe it's a side effect of the stigmata?But other than that, he didn't feel any other strangeness.

In the dining room on the first floor, there was a long table enough for a dozen people to eat together. At this time, only the tableware was placed in front of the two chairs at one end.Lynch sat at the end of the dining table, flipping through something on his phone.After Chu Yang stood on the chair next to him and sat down, he raised his head and said to Chu Yang abruptly, "Have you heard of the Shanghai 8 goods store?"

Chu Yang shook his head blankly, "This is my first time in Shanghai..."

"It's not a standard multi-observation point, but it's an approximate multi-observation point. It doesn't appear in all realities, but it seems to exist in most of the realities. There are many rumors of haunting, and the most commonly heard It's at night that you hear babies cry."

Chu Yang was slightly surprised, "Do you want to broadcast live?"

So fast?

"Yeah, it's been off for a while. If we don't have a new video in three days, we will lose fans." Lynch said with a vicissitudes of life that "it's not easy for us to be an Internet celebrity", and then turned slightly serious, "But You don't need to go with me this time, I plan to buy you a plane ticket first, and let you go back to Beijing. In the past two days, your condition has been relatively stable, and I think there should be no problem."

Thinking of the famous little fresh meat star in the 30s who has now become an Internet celebrity, Chu Yang has a strong sense of absurdity.

At this time, the butler came in with a large silver tray, and placed two plates of roast chicken in red wine sauce, roast potatoes and stewed vegetables in front of the two of them.After Chu Yang thanked him in a low voice, he suddenly said to Lin Qi, "It's okay, I'll go with you."

Lynch raised his eyebrows, "Will it be too soon? You have just received the stigmata. I can give you a period of leave."

"I don't feel uncomfortable anymore... Besides, I need to know... what it is and how it will affect me..." Chu Yang said as if making up his own decision, "Since I have accepted it, I can't escape No way. I can't pretend it doesn't exist..."

Just like he can no longer lie to himself that the lingering man has let him go...

A bright smile bloomed on Lynch's lips, with a bit of appreciation, "This is the best. You are now a member of the Presbyterian Church, and there are many things and rules I need to tell you."

Next, while the two were eating, Lynch told him the history of the Presbyterian Church he knew in concise and precise language.Like the other three major secret organizations, the Presbyterian Church has a long history dating back to Homo sapiens, and even far away, the most primitive DNA on the earth is still trembling and splitting in a viscous primordial ocean, without forming any real life Before.At that time, the universe was not so empty, and there were countless other civilizations crowded there, even civilizations that were more prosperous and powerful than humans.At that time, the gods in the enclosed space were not yet enclosed, until they fought a protracted and tragic war with the universe, galaxy, and endless space and time as the unit.

How horrific that war was, there is no way to know, and people now can only roughly know its results and observe its far-reaching impact.It can even be said that without that war, the universe should be a very different look now.In every nucleus of every human being and every living being, there remains the unextinguished spark from that war.Starting with that war, countless time spaces, countless possibilities, and countless parallel realities were split.

In that war, including Hastur believed by the Presbyterian Church, countless defeated gods were trapped in the closed reality, and it was difficult to directly enter other realities, except for one——Crawling Chaos Nyarlathoti Pu - the main god of Chaos Temple belief.And even those defeated gods are actually hostile to each other, fighting eternally in a closed space.

The victorious gods seem to have spent too much power in sealing the old gods, and they have become countless orders and concepts in the universe and exist forever.But the old gods did not give up breaking through the confinement, their will flowed out from the gap in the closed reality, spread throughout the universe, and also reached the earth.The now-forgotten gods who once appeared on the earth were also influenced by these wills, and later they formed the four most important organizations.

It is worth noting that although organizations like the Presbyterian Church believe in old gods like Hastur and can perceive their will in different ways, the gods in the closed space don't care about the life and death of their believers at all, just like human beings Wouldn't care if those ants believed in them or not.

In addition to humans, there are many races that also believe in those old gods and are divided into different camps.Some races are higher than humans, others are more primitive.Among them, the races that are at the same level as humans or higher and more powerful than humans are called holy races, and the hounds, the colors of the stars, the earth burrowers, the giant worms, and the filthy twins all belong to this category.However, even if they are of the same holy race, there are differences in strength and observation ability, just like observers of the same level have great differences in observation ability.

The hunting dog is the best of the holy race, both in strength and observation ability are very powerful.Races similar to humans, including people on earth and similar races in some distant planets are collectively called humans, and they belong to relatively weak sacred races, but a few of them have extremely strong observation powers that even surpass those of hunting dogs, so-called multiple observers.

So some holy races will cooperate with these people with strong observation ability (at least level [-]), in order to enter more realities that are infinitely close to closed spaces.They believe that these multi-observers are like some kind of cornerstone to ensure the future direction of the infinite universe, and they are a key left by the old gods in the universe, which can open the closed reality and release the imprisoned gods in the future.That's when all realities will merge together, all possibilities will become one.

Chu Yang seemed a little fascinated.He couldn't imagine what such an ancient universe looked like, and he couldn't imagine what a war based on reality and time and space would look like.The feeling of being too grand and ancient makes people feel empty, fear of the endless, and fear of the unknown, as if the foundation of all established cognitions formed in the mind has begun to shake.

Lynch knew that he could only accept so much today, so he gently put down the knife and fork, suddenly called the butler, and asked with great interest what is today's dessert.The butler quickly served the exquisitely made red velvet cake, and Lynch dug out a large piece of red cake wrapped in cream and put it in his mouth, with an exaggerated expression of enjoyment on his face.

Seeing this, Chu Yang silently pushed his share to Lynch...

"I remember what kind of agreement you mentioned before, and the invasion of R'lyeh and the Temple of Chaos is breaking the agreement. What's going on?" Chu Yang asked.

"I'm afraid you won't be able to digest too much at once. I have a set of rules for Presbyterian believers. You can understand it first. We don't have many restrictions like ordinary religions, but there are still rules. Some rules must be followed. Some are more relaxed, and everyone turns a blind eye." Lin Qi said, and after clicking a few times on his mobile phone, Chu Yang found a notification that he had received a shared file on his mobile phone.Clicking on it, it turned out to be an e-book called "The Thirteen Laws of the Presbyterian Church"...

The Presbyterian Church is really advancing with the times...

"However, there is one thing you have to remember. Not only are you a member of the Presbyterian Church, you are a friend..." Lynch poked a fork into the cake, but there was a not-so-obvious seriousness between his brows, "Among the twenty elders?" The standpoints are very different. The five elders I found to perform the scarring ceremony for you are trustworthy, but there are still quite a few elders... who think that our current development method is too slow, and the relationship between the four major organizations is too slow. There are too many restrictions on the civic constraints. They believe that the zero-level to level-[-] observers are a completely different inferior race from us, and they are ants who can be sacrificed at will. All parallel realities that are not our reality can also be infected at will... These People are dangerous, so if you come across someone claiming to be a Presbyterian, don't believe them right away, tell me first."

The author has something to say: a new dungeon will be opened in the next chapter~~~

The 8-item store is my fiction, and the original shape refers to the 6-item store in Shanghai~
