Starting from the folklore forum, making up town objects

Chapter 5: The Small Shock Brought to the Stone Town by the Candle Night

The smoke lingered in the basement for dozens of meters before dissipating. Jing Peng smoked two more cigarettes, and then the smoke fell on the ground.

Looking at the smoke penetrating into the ground, Fu Mingwei began to take action.

He put down the stone town in his right hand, opened the briefcase in his left hand, and pulled out a laptop-like device.

The instrument is connected to something similar to a barcode scanner.

After turning on the instrument, Fu Mingwei used a scanner to slowly scan the place where the smoke had seeped in.

After the scan was completed, images and data appeared on the screen of the instrument.

"10.24 meters underground, there is an incomplete human skeleton. This should be the real body."

"Well, back off."

Jing Peng packed up the cigarette box which had less than ten cigarettes left.

Fu Mingwei put away the equipment, picked up the box and retreated ten meters away.

After he stood still, he realized that he had forgotten to bring the stone town with him.

Seeing that Jing Peng had already started, he didn't go over.

Suddenly, Fu Mingwei felt that the negative energy around him was getting worse. At this moment, Jing Peng's body in front of him trembled, and the beard on his cheeks suddenly grew wildly, and in the blink of an eye it fell to the ground.

It would be fine if they were just growing wildly, but then those beards seemed to have life and actually drilled into the ground.

The concrete seemed to be non-existent in front of those beards.

No, the concrete is real, what isn't real are those beards!
Fu Mingwei looked at this scene with fear and eagerness in his eyes.

"Although this is just a small-scale evil spirit incident, one incident is equivalent to five wandering spirit incidents! After finishing this one, I can deal with another wandering spirit incident with Brother Peng and it will be enough to exchange for the seal to enter the body."

When Fu Mingwei thought that he would be able to be like Brother Peng in the future, the fear in his heart dissipated a lot.

Just as Fu Mingwei was daydreaming, the beard had already risen from the ground.

Unlike when he entered, this time there were more than a dozen broken pale bones entangled in his beard. The moment the bones appeared, the temperature of the entire basement dropped by seven or eight degrees!
But that was all. The evil ghost that Fu Mingwei imagined did not appear, and even the skeleton did not react much.

"The manifested evil spirit was really destroyed?"

Fu Mingwei's gaze shifted to the stone that the migrant workers called Shizhen.

But when he saw this, his eyes widened.

A faint red illusory flame ignited above the stone town, illuminating the area within one or two meters around it.

Immediately afterwards, a loud rooster crowed, echoing throughout the basement.

At this moment, a rooster with illusory flames all over its body suddenly jumped out of the stone town!
Fu Mingwei's face changed drastically and he yelled:
"Be careful, there are still evil spirits!"

Long before Fu Mingwei shouted, Jing Peng, who had been paying attention to Shi Zhen, had already reacted.

The bearded man immediately directed most of his arrows toward the rooster.

But then Jing Peng's expression changed.

Those whiskers that came into contact with the illusory flames on the rooster's body instantly turned into green smoke and dissipated.

But this was not what surprised Jing Peng the most. What was most incredible to him was that the thing inside his body was actually afraid!
This feeling of fear arose after I came into contact with the flame just now.

"What exactly is that flame?"

Could it be that... the rooster-like ghost in front of him is much more ferocious than the thing in his body?
But the concentration of yin energy here is so high that it cannot even hold up to just one, let alone two evil spirits!

Just as Jing Peng was stunned, the rooster spread its wings and flew towards him.

Jing Peng's bearded man was afraid of fighting, so he could only rely on his excellent physical fitness to dodge to the side.

But he dodged it, but his beard didn't.

As the rooster's wings glided past, the illusory flames surged and cut off his beard in mid-air.

Jing Peng looked grim, because on the severed beard of the rooster was the body of another evil ghost that he had just fished out from the ground.

But in this situation, he couldn't care about anything else.

"Ah Wei, run!"

After Jing Peng finished shouting and was about to escape, he was attracted by the movements of the rooster.

The rooster that looked like a ghost did not chase him, but stepped on the bones and pecked at them with its head down!
Every time it pecked, a puff of green smoke came out of the skeleton.

The skeleton shook on the ground, but it had no power to resist.

After a while, all the bones were pecked to pieces and disappeared.

This scene stunned Jing Peng.

It is a known fact that the ghost's body cannot be destroyed. Even if the ghost's body can be destroyed in physical form, it will re-condense after a short time.

Therefore, when dealing with supernatural events, finding the ghost's true form and taking away the seal is the true solution to the supernatural event.

Otherwise, even if the external ghost is eliminated, the ghost will still appear again soon as its real body is still there.

So when Jing Peng saw the rooster pecked the ghost's body, he was naturally extremely surprised.

Jing Peng originally wanted to continue observing to see whether the ghost's body would re-condense in the future.

But then, the rooster, which had finished pecking the bone, turned around, tilted its head and looked at Jing Peng with its eyes.

"grass!"

Jing Peng cursed, turned around and ran towards the entrance.

At this time, Fu Mingwei was already waiting at the entrance.

After seeing Jing Peng narrowly dodge the rooster's attack without any serious harm, Fu Mingwei ran away.

Not long after Fu Mingwei went out, he saw Jing Peng rushing out in a panic.

There was nothing wrong with his body except that it was covered in dust. However, the originally dark beard on his face had been burnt and flipped up.

"Brother Peng, are you okay?"

"fine."

Jing Peng sat on the construction waste and breathed a sigh of relief.

Turning his head to look at the rooster that had not chased out, his brows were furrowed.

"Brother Peng, what on earth is that?"

"...I don't know. I haven't seen it either."

Jing Peng shook his head.

"Record what happened just now. When it's daybreak, we'll go check out that stone...stone town."

"it is good!"

Fu Mingwei put down his suitcase, took out his mobile phone, thought for a while, and then began to write the mission record.

After writing to a certain point, Fu Mingwei suddenly stopped.

"Brother Peng, have we completed this mission?"

Jing Peng thought for a while and said, "Let's talk about it when the sun rises."

"it is good."

The two did not return to the car, but found a place to sit at the entrance of the building all night.

Morning light breaks.

Jing Peng and Fu Mingwei, who were dozing off, both vaguely heard a rooster crowing.

The two looked at each other and said nothing.

After waiting for a while, when the morning light hit the 18-story unfinished building in front of him, Jing Peng stood up, took the black box, and went into the building.

"Ah Wei, wait here for a moment."

Fu Mingwei glanced at the dim sky and replied, "Okay."

It was already daylight, but the basement was still pitch dark.

Jing Peng turned on a high-intensity flashlight and headed in the direction where the stone town was previously placed.

Although some evil spirits would appear in places with stronger yin energy during the day, there were not many of them, so Jing Peng did not walk very carefully.

Not long after, Jing Peng saw the stone town.

Just like before, no changes.

After looking around and not seeing the phantom rooster, Jing Peng walked over.

After observing for a while, Jing Peng put down the box and scanned the stone town. After not finding any foreign objects in it, he scanned the place where the bones were buried before.

The skeleton also disappeared without a trace.

With some guesses in mind, Jing Peng put away the box, grabbed Shi Zhen with one hand and ran outside.

During the process, he tried his best to keep Shi Zhen away from his beard.
