Cyber Ghosts - Chapter 202

Chapter 202 Obstacle

“Who knows you?” Three Yan said in unison, “there are so many Yan in the nether world. No one should know you! If someone like you had known Yan, it would have been widely spread, so we would have known!”

“How could it be! I’ve seen Yan before, and he told me all these things about me and my brother,” shouted Hao Ning, “and he even stayed in my house for many days, eating, drinking and living in my house – we fought together!”

“Have you heard of it?” Niu asked Ma, “there is a Yan who can go to the human world and stay with a living person for a long time. They even have fought together?”

“No…” Ma shook his head, “if there is something like this, it will be widespread.”

After that, Niu and Ma looked at Impermanence Yan but dared not to ask him.

“Oh, I know what happened!” Impermanence seemed to understand. He smiled and explained to Hao Ning, “the Yan you see is not the present one, but one in the future. This one, no, how can I explain it to you? The time and space of the nether world are not exactly corresponding to those of the human world, so maybe Yan in the space and time of the future in the nether world somehow went to find you sometime in the past. So, he knew about your brother’s things. So, you know that Yan and fought with that Yan, but now none of us knows you. Because the Yan you met, for us, is in the future of the nether world.”

It sounded a little messy to Hao Ning, but he thought it was reasonable after careful consideration. He just thought, “but he didn’t want to find me. Didn’t he just want to catch the soul?”

When Hao Ning thought of this, he suddenly realized that Yan said something very strange to him, “I don’t know how it could be you.”

What did he mean by saying how it could be me? Was that Yan looking for me? Why was he looking for me? Was it just a cover to catch the soul?

For a while, Hao Ning was a little confused. He thought about it and asked, “how is my brother?”

“He…” These people looked at each other and had to say, “he’s fine in the nether world.”

“Why isn’t he reincarnated?” Hao Ning was a little anxious. “What does it need?”

“Well…” Impermanence was a little embarrassed. “It needs you.”

“What do you mean?” Hao Ning couldn’t understand Impermanence, “what do I need to do?”

“Because of a mistake,” Impermanence blushed, “part of your brother’s soul is in your body, that is to say, there is a little bit of your brother’s soul in your body, and there is also -”

“Some of my brother’s body cells, right?” Hao Ning smiled bitterly and touched his forehead. “This is called Imbedding Body in biology. In this case, there is no way to cultivate power, right?”

“How do you know?” These three people looked at each other, “what a talent!”

Bullshit, Hao Ning murmured in his heart. This was what the Yan in the future told me!

Thinking of this, Hao Ning was relieved. Since he didn’t know which Yan it was, he didn’t bother about this matter, “what do you say my brother needs me to do in his reincarnation?”

“Well, in the case of reincarnation, the soul needs to be complete,” Impermanence hesitated, “and your brother’s soul is incomplete. It’s very special. We must wait for you to die and return to the nether world again so that we can let your brother reincarnate with you.”

“What are you waiting for?” Hao Ning stood up. “I’ll die now!” After saying that, he was about to hit the wall.

“No, no, no!” Three people hurriedly pulled Hao Ning back, “suicide can’t count! You can’t save your brother in this way.”

“Then you kill me?” Hao Ning looked at these people. “Don’t make me hurt too much. Make it fast.”

“No, no, we can’t. I only heard that ghosts take the soul. I’ve never heard that ghosts can kill people!” The three people waved their hands and only Niu said seriously, “the ghosts in our nether world and the people of the Celestial Empire are in a good relationship. The ghosts in the Celestial Empire love the people, and the people of the Celestial Empire love the ghosts. We are not like barbarians in the West. There are only some demons in their nether world who only want to deceive people’s souls…”

“Yes, the ghost is a serious profession,” said Ma seriously. “The devil belongs to an underworld. It’s not the same thing…”

“The ghosts in the Celestial Empire love the people, and the people of the Celestial Empire love the ghosts…” After listening to Ma’s and Niu’s speeches, Hao Ning knew that the Impermanence Yan told them so. Unexpectedly, the spiritual civilization construction of the nether world was well done, but he was determined to die, so he said, “if you don’t kill me, send me back to the world, and I will find someone to kill me.”

“Big brother…” Impermanence said with a wry smile, “stop that. You are so crazy that you would be put into a mental hospital even if you go back to the human world.”

“Ah…” Ma sighed, “don’t think about it. Live your whole life and die naturally…”

Hao Ning also sighed. People only wanted to live for two more days. There was no one like him who wanted to die immediately. Thinking of this, Hao Ning had to say, “In that case, can I have a look at my brother?”

“It’s just outside, but just have a look.” Impermanence smiled and went out. He took the baby back. Hao Ning looked at the baby in Impermanence’s arms. The baby looked exactly the same as him when he was a child. It was strange that the baby looked at him and laughed at once as if he had seen someone he knew for many years. Then he looked at the baby’s right hand. There were several fingers missing. Hao Ning felt sour in his heart. That night his brother was holding him when Yan pulled him out with great power, so these fingers were broken from his brother and left in his soul.

Thinking of this, Hao Ning suddenly realized something, so he asked, “when my brother touched me, which one of you used your power to pull him out of my body?”

“Of course, it was me!” Impermanence was quite proud, “of course, I’m good at this kind of thing. Speaking of taking the soul…”

“It’s you!” Hao Ning laughed out at once. Yan told him that he took his younger brother’s soul out. Wasn’t that the Impermanence? Hao Ning happily punched Impermanence, “you are the Yan who will meet me in the future!”

“No wonder you came to me!” Hao Ning said with a smile, “no wonder! You talked to me in my dream! Because I don’t know you in the past, but you already know me in the future!”

This was an awkward-sounding sentence, but Hao Ning didn’t care and just blurted out.

After saying that, Hao Ning suddenly thought of a serious thing, and looked at Yan, who was stunned, and said, “I know it’s hard for you to understand, but let me tell you that in your future, no, it should be my past? It’s not right either. In a word, you should understand something. When you are going to see me again, you like to play the Strike of Kings at that time. Remember to be careful when you see me. There will be a terrible old witch -”

When the baby heard the words “old witch”, he seemed to understand and burst into tears. Hao Ning couldn’t bear it. He quickly reached out to touch his younger brother’s little hand, “darling, don’t cry. Won’t say old witch anymore.”

“Ah, stop!” The sound of Ma came out.

“Don’t touch your brother!” Impermanence also exclaimed.

However, there was no time. The moment when Hao Ning’s hand reached the baby’s hand, a white light flashed. Hao Ning’s eyes flashed, and Yan, Niu and others all disappeared. Only Zhou Yuan looked at Hao Ning and Xiao Hong happily and said, “it’s done. Thank you!”

“What’s the matter?” Hao Ning was a little anxious. He held Xiao Hong’s hand and asked, “why are we back?”

“Time Incantation was about to run out at that time,” said Xiao Hong with a sad face. “If I had not given my all-out support, you could not even talk, and how could you have stayed with your brother for so long? You are in the time and space of Time Incantation. Your brother is in the past, and you still have such soul entanglement. Besides, you are still meeting in a chaotic time and space in the nether world. Once you touch your brother, no one knows what will happen. At that moment, Time Incantation ran out. So, we are back.”

“Ah? No, no!” Hao Ning said, “I have to go back and tell Yan, or he will be in danger. Can you take me to the nether world?”

“Big brother!” Xiao Hong pulled Hao Ning to sit on the sofa, “the time and space in the nether world are in disorder. We don’t know which time and space in the nether world we are going to with the Time Incantation. And now, can you guarantee that it would be still the same time and space if we go back?”

Hao Ning was stunned and had to admit that what Xiao Hong said was reasonable. The nether world that didn’t know who he was just now was very strange. If he went back again, who knew where he would be sent to? He sighed and stopped talking.

Zhou Yuan slowly cast a spell to his parents, gradually taking them away from the imagination. At least now, it seemed to be stable. Looking back at Hao Ning’s expression, which showed that he didn’t know what happened, “Hao Ning, what’s the matter with you? Do you want to drink some water?”

“Ha ha,” Hao Ning walked out of the door with a giggle, no matter what Zhou Yuan said, talking to himself. “I think I have strict logical reasoning, but I don’t know. It’s my logic that has harmed my friends, my body and my brother.”

Two lines of tears came down in silence. “Plop”, Hao Ning stepped on the air and rolled down the stairs.

A day later, in the company.

“What happened to him?” Lele pulled Xiao Hong, who was passing by the front desk, pointed to Hao Ning and asked, “don’t you say that Hao Ning got just a slight injury? Why is he like a totally different person?”

“What’s the matter?” Xiao Hong was still in a hurry to take care of stone speculation on the weekend. She didn’t want to talk to Lele, so she just said, “I think Hao Ning is the same as usual.”

“You guys are really insensitive!” Lele shook his head and said with a smile, “Hao Ning usually likes to talk, and talk a lot. But from yesterday to today, he didn’t say a word in the company. He didn’t even say hello to the boss. Even the boss felt very strange. Well, let me see… Did something happen to his family? I’m not good to ask. You have such a good relationship with him, and you were -” Xiao Hong knew that Lele’s good relationship meant that he was patted on the butt by Hao Ning, so he flushed and didn’t speak.

Lele chuckled and said seriously, “I’m asking you. What’s the matter with his family?”

There were some scars on Hao Ning’s face. At that time, Hao Ning was hurt badly after falling down. But how could the Sudhana who was the disciple of Avalokitesvara have no ability to help the wounded? So, with Xiao Hong’s help, Hao Ning soon got better. After a day, Xiao Hong gradually understood the cause of the incident. She lamented why there was such karma. He didn’t know how to persuade Hao Ning. He could only let him be alone and calm down first.

Xiao Hong looked at Hao Ning. For a while, he had mixed emotions. He didn’t know how to explain. He mumbled, “his family… There are some things.”

“Something’s wrong with his family, isn’t it?” Lele said nervously, “Is he going home for a while? It’s over!”

“Why is it over?” Xiao Hong said strangely. Did Lele fall for Hao Ning? Reluctant to let Hao Ning leave?

“Isn’t it the project that the whole company knows about?” Lele said with a sad face, “the boss told me just now that the general manager Hai appointed Hao Ning to lead over the project. If Hao Ning goes home at this time, the investment money…”

“…” a wave of anger rose in Xiao Hong’s heart. Didn’t Lele make it clear? Boss was not comfortable to ask Hao Ning, so he asked Lele to get some information from Xiao Hong! He was not angry at Lele, but at his boss. Xiao Hong followed Zhang Chi Hang and he didn’t know how much money was flowing in his hand, so he valued friendship more. But the boss of the company, who pretended to care about the employees, was actually worried about money. He was just about to get mad but understood him on the second thought. After all, they were ordinary people. Who didn’t live for money? How could the boss know about these situations in Hao Ning? To put it bluntly, it was an employment relationship between them. Thinking of this, Xiao Hong said coldly, “it’s OK. Hao Ning’s brother just died. You can tell my boss that Hao Ning will not go back for the time being!”

After that, he left Lele who was stunned alone and walked away on his own.

“Xiao Hong, wait a moment,” for the first time, Hao Ning called Xiao Hong who came over. “Would you go out and have a drink with me?”

“Sure.” Xiao Hong took a look. It was almost time to eat, so he left with Hao Ning.
