In the emergency room of the Fourth People's Hospital of City G, Gu Qing was receiving rabies and typhoid injections. The nurse quickly inserted the needle into Gu Qing's arm and scolded Yuwen Shuxue," Why do you have such a big wolfhound?" Now, he had bitten his girlfriend like this! If my boyfriend dares to raise a dog to bite me, I'll kick him out!”
Yuwen could only smile bitterly and agree submissively at the side. Gu Qing covered his mouth and snickered, using the corner of his eye to glance at his " boyfriend ". Outside the emergency room, Xuan Gang, who was napping next to the Santana, did not know that he had already been made a scapegoat.
They had only wanted to get the wound on Gu Qing's shoulder bandaged, but the doctor on duty was very responsible. When he heard that they were bitten by an animal and saw that they had a big wolfhound with them, he immediately arranged for a nurse to prepare a rabies vaccine injection. He also specially taught Yuwen that a healthy dog could also transmit rabies when biting people.
After the injection, it was time to treat the wound on Gu Qing's shoulder. She took off her coat, revealing a thin black sleeveless shirt. Just as she was about to take it off, she suddenly saw Yuwen Huan standing at the side and staring at the ceiling in a daze. Gu Qing couldn't help but blush. The nurse glanced at Yuwen and pushed him out of the emergency room without hesitation. She even muttered,"Go away. Don't think that just because you're her boyfriend, you can stand here and watch.”
Yuwen was inexplicably chased out. He was stunned for a while, lit a cigarette, and went to accompany Xuan Gang, who was dozing off.
" Your boyfriend is so tall. Actually, he's quite handsome. If only he would shave…" The nurse was still chattering, but Gu Qing was already immersed in the memories of the incident.
What kind of monster was that "tooth fish"? Ancient Magical Beasts? I have no idea…I asked him how he knew that I was in danger in the parking lot. Did he hear the monster's roar? Why was it so effective against monsters that he could ignite fire in his hands? But he immediately turned his head and glared at me as if I was a monster…Whatever, if he doesn't explain it clearly today, I won't let him go…
"Alright! She would be fine after resting for a few days. If the wound was very painful, she could take some Aspirin. If the wound was swollen, she could apply an ice pack.”The nurse's voice interrupted Gu Qing's thoughts. Gu Qing moved his arms and thanked the nurse. "What are you thanking me for? Go and teach your boyfriend a lesson. Tell him to get rid of the dog quickly. Otherwise, there will be a next time!”The nurse was still holding a grudge against Yuwen.
Gu Qing walked out of the hospital and saw Yuwen squatting next to Xuangang. The man and the dog were dozing off. Yuwen's cigarette was about to burn his fingers. Gu Qing gently kicked Yuwen's leather shoes a few times." Oh, you're done? Let's go." Yuwen rubbed his eyes and stood up to open the car door for Gu Qing. He also kicked Xuan Gang's butt.
"Don't worry." Gu Qing closed the car door again." Didn't you say that you would answer my questions once you leave the hospital?”
Yuwen smiled awkwardly and said,"If you have any questions, ask them."”
"Who exactly are you?" Gu Qing put on a straight face and said in a very serious tone," Stop making up nonsense excuses. I know that there are monsters in the building, that you are not an ordinary person and can subdue monsters, and that you secretly moved the mirror on the twelfth floor!”Gu Qing glared at Yuwen.
Yuwen looked into Gu Qing's eyes and scratched his head. He finally understood that he had to confess today. He sighed and lit another cigarette.
"First of all, I want to make it clear that I hope you can keep my words a secret. Some things will cause unnecessary panic if they are spread.”
"I promise to keep it a secret for you, as long as you don't make up lies to lie to me.”Gu Qing adjusted his posture and put himself in a listening position.
"I'm just like you, an ordinary person, so don't look at me like I'm a monster. I'm just doing a special job. In the jargon of our trade, I am a guide to the netherworld.”Yuwen slowly blew out a smoke ring. "The Book of Changes says that the essence is a thing, and the wandering soul is a change. In this world, there are indeed some things that ordinary people can't see. We usually call them souls, which is what you call ghosts.”
"Ghosts are just a kind of spiritual power that stays in the human world after death. Their strength was very weak and almost negligible. They would not affect the lives of ordinary people. However, there would also be some special circumstances. Due to abnormal phenomena in the sky, drastic changes in the earth, and changes in the hearts of the people, the power of a very small number of wandering souls would be magnified. They would start to use unscrupulous means to fulfill their last wishes and even harm ordinary people. As for the Yellow Springs Guide, it is the responsibility of guiding these wandering souls to safely disperse so as not to affect the normal lives of ordinary people…"
"I understand now. Are you like Yan Chixia in A Chinese Ghost Story, who specializes in catching ghosts for a living?”Gu Qing interrupted.
"Yan Chixia?" Yuwen scratched his head again and laughed." I don't have his ability…Heaven and Earth are boundless, and Heaven and Earth borrow magic? Hehe…I only know the five elements.”
"Five Elements Art? It seemed to be quite powerful. It could even raise flames in its hands.”Gu Qing smiled.
Yuwen's expression suddenly became serious." You can really see flames?”
"Why would I lie to you?"
Yuwen raised his left hand to his chest, and a green flame rose from his palm. Gu Qing was shocked and dodged out of reflex. Yuwen suddenly pressed his left hand on Gu Qing's shoulder. Gu Qing cried out and broke free from Yuwen's hand.
"You can really see it!" Yuwen looked at Gu Qing as if he was looking at a giant panda.
"Crazy!" Gu Qing quickly looked at his right shoulder, but his clothes were not burnt.
"Hehe…this is the Void Spirit Fire. It has no effect on people and things in the natural world.”Yuwen brushed her left hand in front of Gu Qing. Gu Qing's face passed through the green flames, but she didn't feel anything. "But you can actually see the Ethereals. Impressive! I must tell Master."
"Master? You have a master?" Gu Qing asked curiously.
"What? Of course! Who was born to know everything? Didn't Master teach them?"
"Then who is your master?"
"I can't tell you that. You don't need to know.”
" Humph…" Gu Qing snorted in dissatisfaction.
"So you can hear the chirping of a dillo?”Yuwen hurriedly changed the topic.
"Do you mean the kind of 'hey, hey, hey' sounds? Of course I can hear it, or I would have been bitten to death long ago!”Gu Qing said indignantly.
" I see…" Yuwen looked enlightened.
"Don't keep me in suspense! Tell me, what do you know?" Gu Qing questioned Yuwen honestly.
" Hmm…You must be a person with a very strong Essence Qi. Such a person is very rare. Just like a person with a tail, you are a person whose evolution is not complete…" Yuwen crossed his arms and looked up at the sky. He didn't notice the change in Gu Qing's expression at all.
"You're talking nonsense. What incomplete evolution? You're the one who hasn't fully evolved!”Gu Qing was angry!
" Ah... this..." Yuwen was shocked by Gu Qing's raised eyebrows. "Don't worry, don't worry. Wait for me to finish. You probably know a little about the ancient myths of China, right? In the Classic of Mountains and Seas and the Search for the Gods, people in ancient times had a particularly vigorous vitality in their bodies, so they had seen a lot of things about ghosts and gods with their own eyes, which led to them recording a lot of things about ghosts and gods. Slowly, the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties passed down, and things about ghosts and gods became less and less. When Pu Songling wrote Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio in the Qing Dynasty, he was just sorting out the stories recorded by his predecessors. As people slowly evolved, the essence in their bodies gradually weakened, and they could no longer see wandering souls and hollow spirits.”
"Is this considered evolution? This is clearly degeneration!" Gu Qing burst out laughing.
Yuwen Ke didn't think so. He looked at the darkness behind Gu Qing with a serious expression and said in a low voice,""No, this is really evolution. It's best for humans to separate themselves from essence…"
"So, being able to hear the call of that dillo is also a kind of degeneration?”
Yuwen looked at Gu Qing and said with a smile,"" Yeah, I'm just a little stronger than you. I used to only see the Ethereals, but I couldn't hear their voices. The Ethereals 'roars are ultra-high frequency ultrasonic waves. Ordinary people can only hear sounds between 80 to 8,000 Hertz. Only animals like bats can hear ultrasonic waves. Later, my master performed a special operation on me, poking my left ear and transforming me into a beast. Only then could I hear the cries of these Ethereals. It's not easy for you to be born with the ability to hear ultrasound.”
Gu Qing was even more surprised when he heard him say something about poking deaf ears so easily. "Your master actually poked your ears? Just so that you could hear the cries of some Ethereals? Doesn't that mean your left ear can't hear what I'm saying?”
"Well, I can't help it. I'm not born with the ability to hear ultrasound like you. How could a guide of the netherworld not hear the voice of an Ethereal?”
Gu Qing shook her head like a rattle-drum. She couldn't understand why Yuwen's master would do such a cruel thing.
"Then what is an ancient magical beast? Is it also a type of ghost?"
"This is a little complicated. I'll explain it to you slowly when I have the chance. You just need to know that they are also a type of Ethereal. However, hollow spirits like them had physical bodies. When they revealed their true bodies, ordinary people could also see them.”Yuwen seriously stopped Gu Qing from breaking the spirit of the casserole.
Gu Qing knew very well that if Yuwen didn't want to talk about it, it was useless even if he used torture. She didn't probe further and asked another question.
"One last question, why did you lie to me? He secretly moved the mirror on the twelfth floor and said that he was scaring himself!”
Yuwen's face was slightly red." I just don't want you to know about these things. What's so good about knowing so much?" he said. She just had to be an ordinary girl.”
Gu Qing thought of the black woman's figure and green eyes. It was real! He had really encountered a ghost! She couldn't help but feel a chill run down her spine. She quickly pulled Yuwen's sleeve and said,""Then why didn't you catch that female ghost quickly? Do you want me to see her again?”
Yuwen looked troubled." I only confirmed that there was such a black wandering soul in the Tenglong Building after hearing what you said. I have never seen it myself. How can I lead it to me?”
Gu Qing was very disappointed, but thinking about Yuwen, he finally had someone to rely on, so he wasn't afraid anymore.
Yuwen looked in the direction of the Soaring Dragon Building. The night sky of the city under the light was not black, but a suppressed light red. The Soaring Dragon Building stood there abruptly, like a short sword piercing through the sky. In Yuwen's eyes, the building was shrouded in an ominous aura of resentment...
