4. The setting of the game is the same as that of the internship period.
"What if I refuse?" Lu Li, who never believed that pie fell from the sky, did not agree in one go.
If everything that happened tonight was not Lu Li's imagination, then it would completely subvert his life.
He was like being trapped in a narrow room for a long time. Suddenly one day, there was an extra door in the room. He walked to the door and pushed it open. Behind the door was not another narrow and dark room, but a vast sea of stars.
People long for the unknown and fear the unknown.
Lu Li couldn't know whether the hidden guillotine on the door would fall when he passed through this door.
"Why me?" he asked.
"You guess?" The girl's personality is consistent with her appearance. If Lu Li didn't see her tongue sticking out four or five meters long and smearing a ghost, he would only think that this was an ordinary girl.
"Because of my peace?" Lu Li thought of the most likely point.
The girl raised a finger and shook left and right and said, "Not all. I, Li Mei, have seen many ghosts for many years, and many people have seen them, but you are the only ordinary people who dare to fight with ghosts. I, Li Mei, would like to call you the strongest!"
"Thank you for the praise." Lu Li replied unfairly. "So can I consider it?"
"no."
The girl lost her smile.
All the joyful atmosphere disappeared with the sudden cold rejection.
Lu Li never bows his head.
Faced with the girl's strength, Lu Li gave his own answer expressionlessly.
"What is our master's name? Are you my senior sister or master?"
"I like you very much."
Lu Li, who was very conscious of the times, made Li Mei very happy. She walked to Lu Li, who was taller, patted her shoulder for encouragement, and took out a booklet and handed it to Lu Li.
"What is this?" Lu Li reached out to pick it up.
"Ghost messenger book, underworld civil servant certificate, monster picture book... whatever you call it."
Lu Li tried to understand the relationship between the Ghost Book and the Monster Illustrations and reached out to take it.
There are no words on the cover of the book, and there are no suspicious words such as priced at 0.5 yuan behind it. The thickness is only a dozen pages, and the yellowed rough rice paper is a bit old, but it feels like a gentle jade when it touches it.
Lu Li frowned slightly: "Is the ghost messenger... the one I understand?"
"Yes, the black and white impermanent cow head and horse face." Li Mei said shocking words on her face.
Lu Li kept his posture unmoved, and he did not answer or read the ghost messenger book.
"Don't believe it?" Li Mei raised her left eyebrow.
Lu Li sighed: "If I believe this is really a ghost messenger book, then there will be more people who want to believe it. If there is black and white impermanent cow head and horse face, there will be Ksitigarbha King of Yama. If there is Ksitigarbha King of Yama, there will be the eighteen levels of hell in the underworld. If there is the eighteen levels of hell, there will be the heavenly court. The heavenly court has appeared. Will the Gods List and Journey to the West still be fake? Will Erlang Shen and Sun Wukong still be fictional? Speaking of Sun Wukong..."
Lu Li suddenly shut up and turned to the title page of the ghost messenger's book.
The original handwriting here is like something is being erased and disappears in a blink of an eye. After a quick glance, Lu Li only saw the words Li Mei.
New ink traces emerged line by line on the title page.
Last name: Lu Li
Age: 22 years old
Good and Evil: Fraud
Ghost and monsters' degree of reliance: 1
Yinde: One
Lu Li silently read the content full of complaints and turned to the next page without saying a word.
There is a circle of borders on the edge of the second page, and inside the border is a portrait outlined with simple brush and ink. The style is similar to the illustrations of ancient strange novels.
In the painting, there is a thin figure with a silly smile on his face, and his clothes were drawn by ink, like a prison uniform.
Although the style of painting is exaggerated and simple, it is enough to make Lu Li recognize it.
The middle-aged male ghost who was swallowed by Li Mei... was sent to the underworld.
The three words "Sick Dead Ghost" are written in the upper left corner of the portrait, and there is another word "Ghost" underneath. The stroke of the word "Ghost" is drawn into a circle to wrap the word "Ghost".
He understood why Li Mei called this monster to take a picture of the monster.
Try to turn to the second page, it’s empty, and the same goes for the future, there is only one in the ghost messenger book.
A white palm suddenly stretched out and took away the Ghost Case. The moment when the fingertips left the Ghost Case, Lu Li felt melancholy and lost in his heart, as if he had lost the most important thing in his life.
Lu Li resisted the urge to regain it, looked away from his eyes and stopped reading the ghost messenger's book.
"Do you want it?" Li Mei deliberately shook the ghost messenger in her hand with a teasing smile.
"Think." Lu Li answered without hesitation.
Li Mei suddenly collected the ghost messenger book and said, "At least you have to prove that you are qualified to get it."
“How to prove it?”
Li Mei clenched her fist and opened her fingers as she said: "Well... First, I caught 999 ghosts, pulled their heads down and put them into Jingguan. Next, I solved the ninety-nine resentful spirits, tied them to the sun for seven days, and then confessed to the ninety-nine evil spirits, with no gender limit. Finally, I grabbed an evil spirit with a wedding ring and threw it down the volcano with the ring. Um... That's all for the time being, if I think of any good ideas, I will post a follow-up mission to you."
Li Mei was secretly happy to make things difficult for Lu Li, but suddenly, a yellow light rushed out of her hand and fell into Lu Li's palm in a blink of an eye.
Lu Li lowered his head, and the ghost messenger lay quietly in his palm.
Li Mei was exposed as if a lie was exposed, her face turned red and she took it back. She gave up and shouted at Lu Li: "Okay! Don't do so many things! If you solve the three more ghosts, you will pass the assessment!"
Lu Li thought about it, could it be that it was not Li Mei who chose him, but the ghost messenger list?
"You must have many questions to ask at this moment, right?" Li Mei put away the ghost messenger's book, and her hands were freed with burn marks. "But I only answer three questions."
This is Li Mei’s last stubbornness.
“Only three?”
“Now there are two.”
"…Does the ghost messenger just need to catch ghosts?"
Lu Li quickly got into the state and asked questions.
"Not only, we are all about the four types of ghosts and monsters, but the last three types are difficult to deal with. Just catch the ghosts first~ There is another last problem!"
Lu Li thought carefully and asked his last question.
"You're not still in school, are you?"
Li Mei was silent for a long time.
"I'll give you two more opportunities to ask questions. Is it okay to change a question?"
...
-Ten minutes after Li Mei left-
The detective agency was so calm that there was only a gap in the secret door of the bookcase behind the table and chairs.
Lu Li stood in a small dark room, and the table lamp on the table was shining with a dim yellow light, pulling his shadow long and narrow.
The notes and photos cut from the newspaper were posted on the walls, densely packed, overlapping each other, spreading throughout the walls of the room.
In the darkness, only a few clippings of the titles can be seen clearly.
[A woman disappeared on Guluo Street yesterday afternoon]
【Missage notice: Liu Wenwei】
His girlfriend disappeared five years ago and there was no news.
Lu Li never gave up looking, but she disappeared without a trace as if she had evaporated from the world.
If you become a ghost messenger and come into contact with another wonderful and dangerous world... will you gain something?
at least……
