Chapter 361: Yinshan Village (177)

Yang Zhi's body was soaked in a chill like ice water, he winced and awoke from a trance-like nightmare state.

Next to him, Kong Xuyang frowned at Yang Zhi, who was squatting next to him, "What's wrong with you, you've been so restless just now?"

Yang Zhi shook her head vigorously, trying to clear her head, and squeezed out a forced smile on her pale face, "...... I don't know what's going on, the more I digest Bai Liu's memories, the easier it is for me to immerse myself in his memories, it wasn't like this before ......"

"His memories are strange, with three folded areas."

Talking about Bai Liu , Kong Xuyang raised some interest: "What folding area? Weaknesses? The private part?"

"Neither ......" Yang Zhi frowned tightly, "It feels like an overwritten memory that creates another layer of memory overlap on top of the memory, and it feels especially strange when I digest it, like I'm eating the same time period of memory."

Kong Xuyang raised an eyebrow, "Isn't this Bai Liu's memory being erased and rewoven three times?"

"Even his memories have been tampered with, Bai Liu has really lived a life of confusion." Kong Xuyang smiled profoundly, "Anyway, the monster we're squatting on hasn't moved yet, tell me more about it."

After that, Kong Xuyang sat down on the ground, and put on a gossipy expression like he was watching the game, "I haven't heard a single thing that makes me happy tonight, what disgusting things are in Bai Liu's memory? What disgusting things are in Bai Liu's memories? Tell me and make me happy."

Yang Zhi glanced at Kong Xuyang's face, and spoke in a deliberate manner, "Bai Liu first experienced this memory folding phenomenon at the age of fourteen, and he originally grew up in a private orphanage."

"Bai Liu was subjected to a lot of discrimination and torture in the private orphanage." Yang Zhi's face became a bit uncomfortable, he seemed to be feeling cold and subconsciously rubbed his arms, "The director there didn't like him, and often used all kinds of reasons to punish him, such as temporarily increasing Bai Liu's tasks, and then saying that he didn't finish his chores or studies on time, and then in the winter time, making Bai Liu stand barefoot in buckets of water in the snowy weather, or making him cut ice in sub-zero temperatures to clean the pond behind the orphanage. Or making him go chisel ice in sub-zero temperatures to clean the pond behind the orphanage."

Kong Xuyang's eyes narrowed slightly and he whistled pleasantly, "A standard loser's childhood, then?"

"But these memories have been overwritten by whoever artificially modified them, and the final memory left on Bai Liu's side is that he grew up until he was eighteen years old in a public orphanage that was strictly managed and treated the children very well, and had not suffered any abuse or torture, and that the teachers and the director were also good to Bai Liu, but only often had a headache because of Bai Liu's rebellion. The only problem was Bai Liu's rebelliousness," Yang Zhi said. Yang Zhi said.

"Tsk." Kong Xuyang deflated in bemusement, "Abuse that isn't remembered is no fun, there's no way to cause lasting trauma to a person... what about Bai Liu's second memory fold?"

Yang Zhi's expression gradually became strange, "Bai Liu's second memory overlap happened when he was eighteen, a few months before his college entrance exam."

"The college entrance exam?" Kong Xuyang's expression showed smugness and contempt, "Bai Liu's college entrance exam score that we checked was only more than four hundred points, too much lower than mine."

"It seems that even if he was given a memory modification by some high level player of unknown origin who was kind enough to dispense with the so-called [childhood trauma], Bai Liu is still a loser, a loser is a loser."

"No." Yang Zhi couldn't help but retort, "Bai Liu's grades were even worse than this at first, and he could only score over three hundred points."

Now even Kong Xuyang was surprised: "More than 300? Has he not studied for three years in high school?"

"About the same, from memory, Bai Liu never listen to class, basically sleep in class, although a good friend of his Lu Yizhan pressed to learn for a while, but soon returned to his old ways." Yang Zhi said, "The evening study hall basically all escape, escape out to play games."

"Bai Liu also received a major disciplinary action in his senior year, which counted against his record, and was criticized by the entire school, and Bai Liu's grades continued to decline severely after that."

"Bai Liu's grade, not even half of the total score, what room for decline?" Kong Xuyang raised his eyebrows and asked, "What kind of punishment did he receive?"

Yang Zhi said, "Lured students from the same school to steal money from their families to gamble, armed fights involving tens of thousands of dollars, and almost went to jail."

"In the end, the other parent didn't call the police and chose to settle the case privately, and Bai Liu was severely criticized and then bowed his head and apologized to that classmate and was given a major demerit."

"Originally, Bai Liu was going to be expelled, but at that time, the two top students in their school, Fang Dian, who was the first in age, and Lu Yizhan, who was in the top ten in age for a long period of time, said to the school authorities that if Bai Liu was to be expelled, they would drop out of the school together with him and leave the school, and eventually the school weighed up the matter and chose to let Bai Liu stay in the school on probation. "

"That Fang Dian, also for Bai Liu took the charge of enticement of gambling, and Bai Liu together was written off, the two together on the flag stage in front of the whole school read a review, almost all the faults to their own body, forcing the school had to stay Bai Liu."

"But after this, Bai Liu's score slipped to more than two hundred, although not properly study, but also did not regenerate anything, people around him are pointing at him, to go to the toilet to come back to the desk is gone, the bed of the dormitory is also often made dirty, splashing all kinds of water and so on, it is considered a school bullying, right?"

"But Bai Liu reaction is very flat, he does not care at all, desks no longer have a classroom to continue to sleep, also do not care about people are a few high, in what class, dormitory can not sleep on the wall to go to the Internet cafe open all-night sleep."

Kong Xuyang tsked a few times, "Totally a socialite."

Yang Zhi's expression became more and more strange, "But at this time, someone suddenly appeared in Bai Liu's memory."

"Or I can't say it's a person, this person can only be seen by Bai Liu alone, no one else can see it, like a companion apparition, or the kind of [Friend Only I Can See] that a child who is so lonely that something is wrong with his heart would fantasize about."

"This ghost accompanied him in silence, went in and out with him every day, Bai Liu would not go away no matter how hard he tried to drive him away, crouched like a dog in front of the chair where Bai Liu slept every night to guard him, and occasionally leaned his head against Bai Liu's body to cuddle with him."

Kong Xuyang snorted, "Bai Liu's brain is out of order, isn't it? Normal, it would be strange if his brain doesn't have problems with this kind of experience."

"...... I don't know if it's Bai Liu's brain that's the problem, or mine, eating too much memory is still confusing." Yang Zhi inserted ten fingers into his hair and clasped it tightly, mumbling indistinctly with his head down:

"This apparition that appeared out of nowhere at the end of Bai Liu's high school years, a friend who I don't know if it was a figment of his imagination ......"

"-looks exactly like Spades."

Kong Xuyang lost his voice and asked rhetorically, "...... What?!"

The other end.

Bai Liu led Mu Sicheng around the weir, over the dry stone bridge, and followed the path in the TV footage all the way to a barren mountain range littered with graves.

Grave packs of all sizes, new and old, Qingming has just passed, many grave packs next to the unburned paper money, burned to half of the red and white candles inserted in the ground, next to the jagged and odd-looking dead trees hanging a few strings of firecrackers finished blowing up strings of money in the past life on the ground sprinkled all over the place.

The closer graves seem to be recently buried Shady Hill villagers, with relatively modern marble headstones, neatly laser-engraved epitaphs and black-and-white surviving photographs.

And farther away there was nothing but a bare mound, and with a little luck one could find beside it a rude tombstone so weathered that the writing was no longer legible-a board that had been carved.

Mu Sicheng holds up his camera in night-vision mode and carefully photographs the tombstones of these graves in the fluorescent green screen.

In the dark deep forest, under the green light, the tombstone photo of an old man with white hair and a neat smile seems to be staring at these two uninvited guests who are going to throw away the grave, and the amiable smile on their face that was originally in the ground is becoming a little bit more and more resentful and cynical.

Mu Sicheng put his hands together in a prayer and whispered, "Offense, offense, I had no choice, don't be offended."

"Mu Sicheng, come over here and shoot this side." Bai Liu beckoned from a distance.

Mu Sicheng carefully stepped over the grave bag and held the camera up to where Bai Liu was pointing, and he squinted a little, "What's this?"

On the ground towards these grave bags are facing three white porcelain wine cups, which fell a little ash stained white wine, next to three plates of raw meat of different colors and textures, a pile of golden paper money, the foremost is also lit with four columns of incense, two candles, a small money clothes, is burning ghostly.

"This is the [Borrowing Yin Wealth] device, someone came to the mass grave before me, most of the Yin Shan Village people real burial in this place set up all this to cast a spell, borrowed away the Yin Qi and Yin Wealth, and now this place can't be borrowed once more for the Yin Wealth, I can't finish the mission." Bai Liu looked up at Mu Sicheng.

Mu Sicheng gritted his teeth, "Damn, Kong Xuyang this bitch is up to no good again!"
