The author's diary of ghost stories

When the ship docked, Yu Liang walked onto the land surrounded by the snakes and paper figures. It had been nearly a week since he last stepped on such a solid ground, so Yu Liang felt a little shaky when he stepped on the ground.

After staying on the boat that was always up and down for a long time, he couldn't walk anymore.

Yu Liang stood still and eased his condition on the land. Then he looked back at the money-keeping ghost and the few paper figures behind him, and waved his hand, saying, "We will be back before dark. Except for us, all creatures will be killed directly. Even if they are the characters created in the universe, there is no need to show mercy."

This sentence is not a joke. This ship is the biggest guarantee for living on the sea. It cannot be lost no matter what. If there is a special barrel man pretending to be a character created and taking away the ship, he will have no way out when he lands on the island.

Although the paper people can be regarded as masters of illusion, the level of these guys is very unstable. Sometimes they can burst out with great combat power, and sometimes their performance is extremely abstract, which can be called spies.

Yu Liang was not worried that the Money Keeper could not suppress these paper people. After all, his Money Keeper was a capital evil ghost. Wouldn't it be easy to deal with a few greedy and cunning paper people?

They were not at the same level at all. At least in Yu Liang's occasional observation, the Money Keeper easily controlled them.

After discovering the special dominance characteristics between paper people, the Money Keeper immediately formulated a detailed duty system. It would stimulate paper people to work hard by blessing grass infant coins and giving them to paper people.

The blessed grass infant coins can provide a very specific imitation object for paper people, and paper people transformed into the Money Keeper form often have greatly increased strength, and their dominance characteristics are fully strengthened. After defeating other paper people, they can obtain more powerful dominance.

Under this incentive system, the paper people happily accepted the wolf-like corporate culture established by the Money Keeper on the ship.

For these tireless paper people, they can work, but they cannot be without work.

Getting the grass infant coin and defeating other paper figures, and getting the control over other paper figures, is the most interesting experience for the paper figures, and it is worth doing it personally.

Until one of the paper figures discovered that he could use the control to order his defeated subordinates to work for him.

Originally, Yu Liang thought that whoever did the work should be given the grass infant coin, but the money-keeping ghost did not do so. It still gave the grass infant coin to the paper figure with control, rather than the slave paper figure who actually did the work.

No matter how hard the slave paper figure tried, even if a "slave" did two "efforts", there was no way to get the grass infant coin, while the paper figure with the control over the original means of production "grass infant coin" quickly enslaved more paper figures with its advantage.

So there was a situation on the ship where several slave owner paper figures drove most of the paper figures, and the interest in working disappeared for a while.

Yu Liang wanted to take this opportunity to suppress the slave owners to end the inexplicable social experiment of the Money Keeper, but the Money Keeper did not do so. He just encouraged the remaining slave paper figures to "steal" the grass infant coins accumulated by the slave owners.

Through the act of "stealing", the means of production were redistributed, so there were new paper man laborers on the ship, and the situation fell into a cycle.

The paper people had a lot of fun in such a game, while the Money Keeper was sitting on the Diaoyutai. It was the only mastermind behind the scenes who had the ability to issue grass infant coins. It easily diverted all the contradictions, and to some extent, it also improved the labor efficiency of the paper people and extended the working time of the paper people.

It's quite strange to say that the paper people's combined strength is definitely greater than that of the money-keeping ghost. If they work normally, they will inevitably come up with some tricks, and they may not obey the money-keeping ghost's discipline, but after the money-keeping ghost did this...

In short, the only things you can see on the ship are the little paper people working hard. At a glance, they are all paper people facing the deck with their backs to the sky. At least occasionally at night, you can hear the sound of paper people cheating and illegally obtaining grass infant coins.

Now, the paper people were very willing to follow Yu Liang to explore, after all, they are creatures that can't sit still, but under the special dominance characteristics, the current slave paper people can only follow the money-keeping ghost to guard the ship.

However, the slave paper people were not unhappy, and they didn't know what the money-keeping ghost secretly told them. In short, they looked at the paper people around Yu Liang with a subtle look, with a little bad intentions.

The lighthouse was right on the shore, surrounded by a stone wall. The rusty iron gate was closed. Inside the wall were weeds and vines that had spread from the trees in other places. The entire area around the lighthouse was desolate and looked sparsely populated.

Yu Liang turned his head to look at the Grass Infant mecha beside him. The Grass Infant mecha on the left nodded, stepped forward and pushed the door open. The dusty door was pushed open, and the broken joint caused the door to collapse and hit the ground.

The snake was swimming in the front, with Grass Infant mechas with bone machine guns on both wings, and the paper people followed Yu Liang closely all the way, showing their curiosity about the lighthouse.

They had never left their island in this copy, so they didn't know what was on other islands.

This was the first time they had seen an abandoned lighthouse like this.

Yu Liang came to the bottom of the lighthouse, where the stone furniture was almost integrated with the weeds, and some small animals were hidden in it.

The snake-eater went forward to observe and confirmed that there was no danger here before returning to Yu Liang's side.

Once it encounters danger, it can immediately wrap Yu Liang with its body to form an all-round protection.

Normal pythons wrap to strangle their prey, and it has evolved this wrapping instinct into a special protection measure, which must be considered a kind of wisdom.

Yu Liang reached out and swept away the weeds that blocked his vision on the stone table, and looked at some books in the stone cabinet.

This place was obviously inhabited, but it seemed to be a long time ago.

The paper of the booklet has turned yellow and is very fragile, and the handwriting on it is also looming.

It can be seen that this diary-like thing was written by someone with a charcoal pencil or some other tool, in short, it is not a fountain pen or ballpoint pen used by modern people.

——

1. I determined this day as the first day of landing on the island, because I can't remember clearly what happened before I came to this ocean. Maybe it was a plane crash, maybe it was something else, I came here and gained special abilities. I used the collected resources to synthesize some urgently needed supplies, and used the very magical text synthesis rules to get the lethal spell "burn" character.

I firmly believe that I have the system and mastered the supernatural power. After a short period of suffering, I will get everything I want.

Power, wealth, status, when I leave here and return to the real land, I will be perfect (indistinct handwriting)

4. The characters were taken away, and I am not the only one who got the system and abilities.

Damn, am I a supporting role?

5. Although the characters were taken away, this guy called "Ma Debang" is quite obedient. The characters are a token of loyalty. Next, he will provide me with food. In exchange, I need to guard the lighthouse at night. When there are enemies on the sea, I have to warn them in time.

7. There may be small boats on the sea, and there may be a monster called a barrel man. If you meet a small boat, you have to take it away, and if you meet a barrel man, you have to kill it, otherwise we will die.

People like us who don't have a boat are "wanderers", the lowest level of the entire dungeon, because without a boat there is no way to leave the island, and we can only live on the island. But guarding the island is not bad, Sister Hua must be interested in me (large paragraphs of text are crossed out) It's a pity that she is Madbon's woman.

10. To rob a boat! ! ! ! ! The boat you make yourself is useless and will not be recognized! ! !

15. The barrel man came, only three or four, but almost half of the wanderers on the island died, and some people were bitten by the barrel man and turned into a barrel man themselves. I watched Madbon kill all the injured people, and they acquiesced to this. It's a barbaric thing, I never thought they had such a barbaric side. But the good thing is that my daily rations have increased.

17. If you get bitten, you will become a barrel man, and you can never change back! This is even more evil than zombies. I can't get rid of these ghosts at sea. My raft almost sank. Fortunately, I ran back to the shore in time. They are not very mobile on the shore and move slowly.

37. Well, there are more wanderers. There are a few good-looking wanderers this time. I feel that the atmosphere on the island has become more lively. Madbang has found a way to farm. We can support ourselves. If we don't have to worry about food, our relationship will be closer.

The island is pretty good.

If it is always so peaceful, it won't be a problem to spend the rest of my life here (crossed out)

No, I still want to go back. I'm going crazy without a mobile phone to play with. I can only count the stars every day!

There's not even a fucking moon!

Why am I the only one guarding the tower? They all have nightlife, and I can only count the stars!

65. I've been a little busy recently and don't have time to write a diary. I don't actually have the habit of writing a diary, but to be honest, when you really encounter these messy things, you will also want to write a diary, because if you don't write it down, I'm afraid it will never happen? No one will know what happened to you. More and more wanderers came to this island. They were all poor people who were thrown into the sea after their boats were stolen, just like me.

The sea water will block people's consciousness and body, just like being frozen, but they will not die. When the tide rises, people may be sent to the shore, and when they wake up, they will become wanderers on the island.

People without boats can never leave this ghost place, but people with boats are more likely to meet barrel people. This is unsolvable.

I can only collect more characters. If the barrel people come again, just kill a barrel man.

If I can kill a barrel man, it will be great.

96. Finally, there were too many people on the island, and we attracted the attention of the powerful barrel man gang. There were many alienated professionals among them. I know this kind of thing. Ma Debang is an alienated professional, and he has more powerful power. Obviously, I am just a thief in reality, why can I be so powerful in this ghost place? Damn, I used to be a top student. This group of barrel men killed almost everyone on the island, and at the same time absorbed a small number of wanderers, turned them into barrel men and took them away.

I hid well, no one should be able to find me.

97. Sister Hua, Madbon, Xiao Sier, all the acquaintances are dead, and I am the only one left on the island.

No, there is still a corpse of a barrel man on the island. The team of wanderers is so large, and in the end, they can only kill an ordinary barrel man. Haha, I am not the protagonist.

I don’t have much time, and I must make a decision before their bodies rot.

98. Damn, I can’t get out anyway, so I can’t get out. I might as well be a barrel man!

I bit Sister Hua, Madbon, and everyone else. Now they are all barrel men, they all woke up, and they all came back.

The island became lively again, and this time there is no need to worry about the attack of the barrel man. The group of monsters will only attack humans, not barrel men.

Just supply some food to the barrel man in the sea regularly.

This kind of life is not bad, at least there is no need to worry.

After all, I am not the protagonist, so I can only go on like this.

120. An injured barrel man came to the island. His name is Xue Wubin. He is the strongest player I have ever seen, and he is an alienated professional.

He didn't think he was a barrel man, because he looked like a barrel man as soon as he entered the dungeon.

But he seemed to be on the human side, looking for a chance to change back to his original form. He said there was no unsolvable dungeon. Since he was a barrel man as soon as he entered, he must be able to find a way to change from a barrel man back to a human. Perhaps he could change back to a human as long as he resisted the root behind the barrel man.

He wanted to lead a group of barrel men to resist the group of barrel men, and he needed my help. He only needed me to V him some food.

I didn't tell anyone about him, but helped him recover from his injuries.

The wanderers on the island were grateful to me because I turned them from corpses into barrel men, but they were also afraid of me because I completely ate a barrel man and turned myself into a barrel man.

The new wanderers hated me because there were only barrel men on this island, and I was the root of the barrel men, and they could only become barrel men like us if they wanted to survive.

Fortunately, I have always been just a tower guard, away from the life on the island. At least Sister Hua and Xiao Si'er would come to see me occasionally.

I think it is a good thing to help Xue Wubin. I am not the protagonist, not the Eighth Route Army, I am just a fellow villager, but I cannot be the Imperial Army, I want to be a fellow villager who hides the Eighth Route Army.

——

150. Discovered.

Everyone hates me.

I am no exception. I obviously have no ability and am just a supporting role. Why should I learn to do things from him?

"That's it." Yu Liang has turned to the last page. He carefully put the book away, and then found a stone-carved sentence under the diary in the stone cabinet:

He took away half of my "doubt".

"Doubt"?

The other side of the moon?

The barrel man took away half of the "doubt"...

Is this the hint that the moon housekeeper gave me?

Yu Liang's mind seemed to have a flash of inspiration. "Doubt" is a side that the moon housekeeper rarely uses, the other side of the smiling side, and He does not like to show this side to others.

But he has never doubted the power of "doubt", which is the ability to make "zhi" feel fear.

Yu Liang opened the diary again, and his eyes finally stopped at the excerpt from the 120th day.

"He" said that he was the "root of the barrel man."

At least on this island.
