Pollution throughout the territory

"Grandma Liu, calm down!"

Xia Ren's back was sweating, and he had already taken out the coward's ear pick, ready to defend himself at any time.

No one could calm down easily even if they cursed their son's death. Grandma Liu stood up from the sofa, her eyes full of resentment. She raised her hands and aimed at Xia Ren's neck, trying to strangle him.

"What did you hear just now? Why are you so angry suddenly?" Xia Ren frowned, looking innocent.

The expression on his face was as if he had no idea at all and had suffered great grievances for nothing. Mrs. Liu paused after hearing this: "You said that Jizhong is dead..."

"I didn't, I wasn't, you heard wrong!" Xia Ren insisted.

Old Mrs. Liu showed her sinister white teeth and said, "Impossible, I heard you clearly just now!"

"You just heard wrong! Grandma Liu, think about it, will I be the kind of person who doesn't want to die?" Xia Ren gasped nervously, his face turning red.

Success or failure depends on this.

Old Mrs. Liu felt something was wrong, but she couldn't tell what was wrong. As soon as she hesitated, the movements of her hands stopped.

Seeing that there was something going on, Xia Ren quickly struck while the iron was hot: "What I just said clearly is that your son may not be able to come back in other states for a while! How can you listen to me saying that your son is dead?"

Could it be that I really heard it wrong? But how is this possible? I heard it so clearly just now...

Mrs. Liu was confused.

Since she was born, she has always thought that she was a ghost. This was the first time she could talk to a human being. Faced with this situation, there was really no way to judge whether she was wrong or whether she was deceived.

"Grandma Liu, sit back first and let's take your time." Xia Ren saw that the other party sat down again without hesitating to speak, and breathed a sigh of relief.

Sure enough it can be fooled!

From the first few words of conversation, he was trying to see through the other person's way of thinking. Unexpectedly, he could communicate like a normal person.

Although she is a type of infected body and is hostile to humans, she did not show any hostility towards herself after entering the house. She looked exactly like an old lady next door who came to visit, and she was even easier to deceive. The initial fear comes from the unknown. After getting to know the other person, you are no longer so afraid.

Xia Ren calculated in his mind and pretended to be mysterious and said: "Grandma Liu, do you believe in Buddhism?"

Since the other party thinks he is a ghost, he will take the right medicine.

Mrs. Liu's thoughts were not clear yet, so she nodded and said, "Believe it or not."

"Great, just believe me."

Xia Ren rubbed his hands, became bolder, and said skillfully: "I think your state just now is probably related to what the Buddhist scriptures say. How long have you been dead?"

"Probably, two months." Mrs. Liu's tone was hesitant, not sure.

"It's more than a month." Xia Ren corrected, "Can you still remember clearly what happened during your lifetime?"

"I can't remember a little bit."

"That's great!"

"What's so good?" Mrs. Liu was a little panicked. She felt that her situation didn't seem to be good.

Xia Ren cleared his throat: "I mean, you are such a nice person. I asked the residents downstairs during the day, and they all said that you were always willing to help others. If anyone was in trouble, you would be the first to help. And Your attitude towards the juniors is amiable, so the young people in the community are willing to chat with you, and everyone respects you. Do you still remember this?"

Is there such a thing? Was he so good during his lifetime?

Old Mrs. Liu couldn't remember it, but after all, it was a compliment to herself. Although she was confused, she still accepted it all: "Yes, I am a very old person. I don't ask for anything, I just compare it. He is kind, doesn’t want to see others suffer, and is always thinking of helping someone.”

"..." Xia Ren.

"That is to say, how could such a good person suddenly become angry at a junior like me?" He said sincerely, as if he felt that the incident just now was excusable.

Old Mrs. Liu scratched her pants embarrassedly, and at the same time she already thought that she had really heard wrong just now.

But, where is the problem? Why do you hear hallucinations?

"This must be the reason why you have been lingering in the world for too long!" They will all turn into evil ghosts and eventually be demoted to the eighteenth level of hell, where they will be tortured forever and never be reincarnated. Grandma Liu, you are so serious that you started to mishear my words, and you almost killed me just now. This state is very dangerous. Ah, you never know when Black and White will come to arrest you!"

"ah?"

Old Mrs. Liu was completely panicked. She was already dead, so what she was most afraid of was things like hell, so she quickly begged: "I can't go to hell. Young man, is there anything you can do to help grandma?"

"Grandma Liu, if you are worried first, there must be a way." Xia Ren seemed to feel the same way, with an anxious look on his face, and asked: "You go downstairs and knock on the door every night, can you tell me the reason?"

Mrs. Liu recalled with a painful expression: "I stayed in my room every day and felt too lonely, so I wanted to find neighbors to visit..."

Her only son settled in another continent. She was always alone during her lifetime. After her death, her loneliness became even more severe, eventually driving her to wander in the corridors every night, knocking on doors, just longing for someone to talk to her. say.

However, no one could see her, and no matter how hard she knocked, the door remained closed.

She could never escape the fate of loneliness.

Mrs. Liu's expression was lonely, she was not pretending.

For a moment, Xia Ren really thought that the person sitting in front of him was the real Mrs. Liu, and he couldn't help but feel a little sad in his heart. He began to sympathize with her experience, but then he came back to his senses, gritted his teeth, and reminded himself that in front of him, They are a type of infectious body, a product of pollution, and the enemy of mankind. No matter how pitiful they appear, they are still the opposite of themselves!

Can't sympathize!

Can't be moved!

"But you have already caused a lot of trouble to the neighbors. They respected you as a good person during your lifetime, so they didn't invite Taoist monks, otherwise...sigh." He said half of the sentence, deliberately leaving the most terrifying consequences to the other party. chew.

Mrs. Liu thought about it and felt really guilty and scared. She felt guilty that she had let down her neighbors who loved her, but she felt scared because she was lucky that she had not been taken away by ghosts and sent to hell.

She now feels like she shouldn't exist in this world.

"Grandma Liu, and what happened in the evening, do you know anything about the house I live in now? And the girl who lives with me, do you have any impressions?" Xia Ren took the opportunity to ask about his personal matters.

After all, Mrs. Liu lived right across from him, so she might know Zhao Mingyue and the secrets of this room, or at least be able to provide some clues.

However, Mrs. Liu's answer surprised him: "What girl? Yesterday evening, I only saw you standing in front of the door alone."

Xia Ren was stunned.

Even the infected body didn't see Zhao Mingyue. Could it be that yesterday was a hallucination?

I... came to this room by myself?

"In addition, in this house, I just feel that there is something hidden inside, which makes me very uneasy. Yesterday, I wanted to remind you not to go in, but when I was about to say that, the door suddenly opened."

Xia Ren knew what happened next without her having to ask.

"Then do you have any impressions of the people who lived here before?"

The wrinkles on Old Mrs. Liu's face squeezed together and she shook her head: "This house should have been occupied by someone before, but it was too vague. It seemed like it was a long, long time ago. I can't remember it."

It seems that if he continues to ask questions, he will gain nothing. Xia Ren plans to completely solve the current problem first.

"Grandma Liu, what do you want to do most right now? Maybe I can help you."

Mrs. Liu could vaguely guess what he meant. After being silent for a long time, she said in a pleading tone: "I want to see Jizhong one last time."

This is probably her biggest wish.

Loneliness is just because you can't see anyone you care about, and it has nothing to do with your neighbors.

Looking at the old lady Liu in front of him who frightened him at first but now looks like an old man left behind, Xia Ren took a deep breath and said, "Give me his number and I will contact you.

You must let your son kowtow in front of your grave! "

Mrs. Liu had a struggling expression on her face, and she hesitated longer this time.

Her eyes became cloudier, and something was brewing.

Mrs. Liu didn't want to go to hell, and she couldn't let go of her son. But she is already dead. Should we let our son come back to face an old lady who has no sane ghost?

"Young man, I believe you."

Xia Ren handed over a piece of white paper, and she wrote a series of numbers on the paper.

[It is detected that the infected body has lost resistance and can be sealed. Should it be sealed? 】

The system prompt finally arrived.

【yes】

Just as he was confirming, the countless tentacles he saw last night stretched out from behind and reached forward.

Faced with such a sudden change, Mrs. Liu opened her mouth in horror, but it was already too late.

The tentacles quickly wrapped around her body. Before the latter could struggle, her body seemed to be sucked dry by the tentacles, became transparent, and finally disappeared into the air, leaving not even a whimper.

Xia Ren was also dumbfounded.

In less than a second, the tentacles appeared and disappeared as fast as lightning, disappearing together with Mrs. Liu who had just been sitting opposite.

There seemed to be something more in my mind, and the system gave another prompt.

[Congratulations to the host for successfully sealing a type of infected body. The first mission has been completed. Reward: Level 1 anti-pollution liquid*1. The first-level anti-pollution fluid can be used to correct Class I and II infectious agents, but is ineffective against Class III infectious agents and aberrations. 】

Looking at the options given by the system, Xia Ren made sure that he was not dazzled.

"Can it also increase the pollution value?"
