After walking into the slightly old and dark warehouse, Chen Sanyu looked up and saw five or six shelves of bookcases through the dust floating up and down in the room.

He walked slowly and took out a book at random from the bookcase.

As soon as I flipped through it, I discovered that this was a picture book describing the contents of various laws and regulations in Black Earth Town.

"useless."

Pa~

Throw it on the ground casually.

Chen Sanyu raised his hand and took out another book from the bookcase.

Turn a few pages.

But it was discovered that all the records contained therein were tax and labor files.

"useless."

Pa~

Throw it to the ground again.

Then, Chen Sanyu flipped through dozens of books and found that they were all useless books such as county and town maps, household registration files, Confucian writings, explanations of Chinese characters, poetry classics, arithmetic calculations, etc.

It wasn't until he reached the bookcase at the back of the warehouse that he found the county chronicle of Heitu Town.

Crash--

I flipped through dozens of pages at random.

After skimming through large sections of meaningless historical records of Black Earth Town, Chen Sanyu finally found what he wanted.

That is, writings about many ghosts and spirits.

This is only a dozen pages of writing, and it actually has a proper name - "Records of Foreign Objects".

After finding the things, Chen Sanyu found a reclining chair, sat on it, leaned against the back of the chair and started reading leisurely.

This note begins with ten characters:

All things have spirits, and humans are only one of them.

After that, the writing briefly stated that in addition to human beings, there are four other types of aliens in this world: ghosts, monsters, fairies, and spirits.

Among them, ghosts are also known as Tonggui.

That is to say, it refers to the foreign objects transformed by the ghosts of the dead after the death of people and things.

There are three categories in total - human ghosts, material ghosts and corpse ghosts.

As for what these three types of ghosts specifically refer to, the book briefly mentions that the torture ghosts who died by beheading or beheading, and the hanged ghosts who hung themselves to death full of resentment, both belong to the category of human ghosts.

The green lantern ghosts and coir raincoat ghosts that occasionally appear at midnight belong to the category of physical ghosts.

Ghouls are zombies that are formed by sucking in the evil spirits and gathering evil spirits when they are about to die.

As the saying goes, you must strive for success in life and stop breathing after death.

Zombies are disasters caused by the influence of the outside world even after death.

However, "weird" has nothing to do with ghosts, gods and monsters. It refers to all kinds of strange and inexplicable things, or all kinds of weird and unpredictable phenomena.

Regarding this type of strange phenomena, the book writes a related past event in Black Earth Town.

In other words, it is what happened in a village around Black Earth Town.

It was many years ago that an old woodcutter who lived in Sunjia Village, dozens of miles south of the town, went alone to the mountains to cut firewood one day in summer.

On the way to cut firewood, the woodcutter named Sun suddenly encountered a heavy rain.

To avoid the rain, he hid in an unknown cave in a panic.

Walking deep into the cave, the old woodcutter discovered that there was a flesh lotus inside the cave.

When he got closer and took a closer look, he was shocked to see that the flesh lotus was filled with gold and silver treasures.

The woodcutter was immediately overjoyed.

Then he took off his upper body clothes, used this clothes as a package, and put all the gold and silver treasures in the lotus into it.

After the rain stopped, he returned home with his treasure.

After seeing the gold and silver treasure at home, the old wife urgently inquired about its whereabouts.

The woodcutter said that all the gold and treasures were taken from a flesh lotus at the end of a cave deep in the mountain.

The old wife has another question.

It was said that because of the hot summer, he never wore upper-body clothes when he went into the mountains to chop firewood in the past. Why did he return home with his clothes wrapped in gold treasure this time?

The old woodcutter was also quite puzzled, and replied that it was true, saying that he really never put on a shirt during the hot summer days.

In doubt, he lowered his head and looked at the clothes in his hands, and found that it was actually a piece of bloody human skin.

The woodcutter immediately turned into a bloody man. He screamed in pain and fell to the ground. He rolled around for two or three breaths and then fell to the ground, dead.

The bloody human skin also fell to the ground, and all the gold and silver treasures wrapped in it were turned into hearts, livers, spleens, lungs and kidneys and scattered on the ground.

The old wife at home was also frightened by this scene and fainted. When she woke up, she became demented and confused. She told everyone not to take the gold treasures from deep mountain caves, otherwise something bad would happen.

"This past incident is not like a ghost story, but rather like a warning. If you take money that you shouldn't take, you will suffer the consequences that you shouldn't suffer."

Chen Sanyu rubbed his chin and continued reading.

At the end of "Records of Foreign Objects", various ghost events and strange phenomena that have occurred in Heitu Town and surrounding villages over the past hundreds of years are also recorded.

There is no event content, only simple records.

Chen Sanyu counted these records in detail and found that the frequency of ghostly and weird things occurring in Heitu Town and the surrounding villages was only a few hundred miles away, reaching an average of three or four a year.

So in general terms, over a few hundred years, it would be equivalent to a thousand pieces.

This is only an area of ​​a few hundred miles.

If the scope is expanded to thousands of miles and tens of thousands of miles, then in a dynasty for hundreds of years, one hundred thousand supernatural events will not occur?

"Tsk, tsk, the mortals in this world have a hard life, and they see ghosts at every turn."

After Youyou sighed, Chen Sanyu laughed again, "But this kind of world where all monsters and monsters exist is quite interesting."

In fact, if you think about it carefully, even if there are more supernatural events, it doesn't matter.

Because even if ten people die in one incident, if accumulated over hundreds of years, it will only amount to 10 million deaths.

From Chen Sanyu's perspective, this number is really quite small.

Then look down.

"Records of Foreign Objects" says that apart from ghosts and monsters, there are also demons and spirits in the world.

There are also two types of demons.

That is, witches and monsters.

Regarding the former, according to the book, it refers to those fox fairies and clam girls who like to capture Yuanyang with false appearances.

Those merchants, travelers, and students who were traveling in the wilderness would occasionally encounter witches in remote areas, and they would use various tricks and sorcery to drain their vitality, and they would die miserably.

After death, the corpse may also be stripped of skin and tendons by witches, and then devoured to death.

The latter refers to all kinds of livestock and beasts that have become spiritually intelligent and have turned into transverse bones.

This type is far more cruel than the witches and the like. They like to eat people the most and are basically non-virtuous.

As long as a mortal encounters it, it will be eaten alive and sucked clean by it, even the bones and dregs will be left.

But monsters are rare, and usually only appear occasionally in deep mountains and old forests, in places covered by clouds and mist.

The last one is fine.

That means monsters.

The so-called things become better with age.

Spirits and monsters are all transformed into spirits from various inanimate objects.

According to the book, utensils such as brooms and dustpans, mops and washboards, hoes and sickles, tables, chairs and benches will become popular after being used for a long time.

If someone continues to use it, nothing will happen.

But once it is discarded and the body remains intact, after it has been left for a hundred years, intelligence will be born, and then it will become a spirit and cause mischief.

All daily necessities that have become spirits can be called "old charms", which are a type of spirit.

As for other types of spirits, "Research on Foreign Objects" does not describe them in detail. It only briefly mentions jade beauties, bookworms, and gold and silver boys.

At the same time, the writing of its content has officially ended since then, and there are no more words left.

"Ghosts, monsters, demons, spirits, it's so interesting."

Throwing the county records down casually, Chen Sanyu smiled curiously, "I really want to catch a few for fun."

As he spoke, he 'saw' through his vision and hearing that a few miles away, there were actually two or three people in official uniforms, hesitating at the edge of his aura field.
