Chapter 5: A world that people don’t know ()

"Hey! Wake up!"

Just as Pei Jiao was in a coma, a sharp pain suddenly came from his face. The human-faced giant wolf, the nine-clawed monster in his memory, and the most terrifying giant-faced monster rushed towards him, scaring Pei Jiao so much that he bounced up from the ground. It was not until this time that he saw several white men standing in front of him. The white man closest to him was making a move to stretch his feet. It was obvious that the white man kicked him in the face just now.

Seeing Pei Jiao's agile skills, these white men also showed surprise expressions. The white man who kicked Pei Jiao's face curled his lips and said to Pei Jiao in English: "Why are you still standing there? Do you want us to come to you? Damn, lying here to pretend to be dead, I can guarantee that this guy must have pretended to be dead here since before. Damn, these yellow-bred pigs are thieves. According to me, they should be sent all of them abroad!" As they spoke, these white men had already left with them, cursing while walking.

Pei Jiao was naturally full of fire after being kicked, but compared to his anger, the situation in front of him seemed even more strange. If nothing went wrong with his memory... he remembered that he had ventured from the underworld to return to the sun, right? But why could anyone see him? Could it be that he occupied other people's bodies as written in those novels, and was reborn?

Thinking of this, Pei Jiao immediately felt so excited that he touched his body. It was better to die well than to live. Those who have not lost could never know how painful it is. If they could be resurrected, even if they were disabled, they would be better than living in that kind of monster group. But before Pei Jiao was excited, when he subconsciously controlled his mental power and used his mental power to look in his soul body like he used to do the past, the light spots, his own obsessions, and lightning runes in his body were all clear at a glance... He was still the soul body, and he still had not been resurrected by the body...

"In other words, those white people just now are all souls? Why don't there be black aura on them?" Pei Jiao suddenly came to his senses. Those guys just now were actually souls, and there was no black aura on their souls. Isn't this the same as him?

Pei Jiao suddenly came to his senses as he thought about it. He looked around in a hurry. Sure enough, he saw the layout of a modern human city, with various lights and many high-rise buildings. Although it was already evening, there were still many vehicles and pedestrians on the street. The most important thing was that Pei Jiao saw a very famous building... The White House in the United States made him sure that he was on the earth, rather than traveling to an inexplicable place again.

Pei Jiao was so excited that he could not speak. If he hadn't been in his soul body at this moment, even tears might have emerged. He stood there in a daze for a long time until he patted his shoulder with one hand behind him. He woke up suddenly and immediately blamed him in his heart. If he had been in the hell of the underworld, he would have been swallowed by those monsters long ago. Even in this world, he could not be so careless. Who knows if he would encounter any monsters in the future?

When Pei Jiao turned his head, he happened to see a beautiful Western beauty, blonde, blue-eyed, and slim. She was showing a curious look and said, "Hey, if you don't go and pick them up, those people will leave."

Pei Jiao is not a pig brother. He just glanced at the beauty and said, "Where is the place to pick up things?"

The beauty was slightly stunned, but didn't say anything, but pointed to the street not far away. Pei Jiao looked and saw a group of people gathering there. Without asking for details about what to get, he turned around and walked towards that direction.

Pei Jiao knew in his heart that all the things in front of him were really weird. First of all, he didn't know what time it was now. He only remembered that he died in mid-July 2009. According to the time he spent in the underworld, it should be early December 2009, but who knows whether the time flows between the two worlds are the same? What if it is decades later? This is one of them.

The second is the souls around them. As Pei Jiao saw, there were at least hundreds of soul bodies around them, and they were all soul bodies without black aura. Just like him, in fact, there was still a big difference between soul bodies and living people. Those soul bodies looked a little illusory, just like three-dimensional images, always a little unreal. Pei Jiao saw at least hundreds of souls without black aura possessed here, and they were still talking to each other. It was obvious that they did not become soul bodies today, but had become soul bodies for a long time, and it was obviously related to each other.

It was because of the above two points that Pei Jiao had to be careful. He didn't dare to show his confusion that he knew nothing. Anyway, he just followed the crowd and slowly found out what was going on, why did these souls have no black aura, and why didn't they enter the underworld?

When Pei Jiao walked into the group, one of them had his eyes immediately became empty. He just glanced at Pei Jiao, then nodded to the person next to him, and the person next to him reached out and gradually, ten ping-pong-sized light spot particles appeared in his hand. The man didn't say much, and slapped the light spot particles into Pei Jiao's body with a casual slap. Then the man waved to Pei Jiao with contempt and signaled him to leave.

Pei Jiao was so shocked that he couldn't describe it. He didn't expect that the so-called picking things was to obtain standard energy bodies. That thing was the main component of the soul, and it was so easy to give it to others? Isn't that person afraid that his soul would disappear?

With such a lot of questions, Pei Jiao floated around the distant streets casually, his head full of questions that he couldn't solve. Moreover, he is now in Washington, the capital of the United States, and it is not easy to go to China. It seems that he still needs to go to the airport to check it out and he should be able to find a flight to China.

"Hey... that Japanese, are you dead?" Just as Pei Jiao was confused and puzzled, such a voice suddenly came from behind him, which scared him so much that he immediately turned his head and saw the Western beauty who had reminded him floating behind him. She was smiling and looking at each other.

Pei Jiao's heart moved. He looked around and found that there were only two souls, he and this Western beauty, nearby. He no longer concealed it, just nodded and said, "Well, I also think it's very strange. Suddenly it turned into a soul. I didn't expect that people would really have souls after death... By the way, I'm not a Japanese, I'm a Chinese!"

The Western beauty then showed an extremely surprised expression. She seemed to have seen something unbelievable, and she opened her mouth wide without any reservation and said, "Is it impossible? I just said casually that you are really the one who died? Then you rely on your own strength to break free from sin? Oh my God, is there really someone who can break free from sin by relying on yourself?"

Pei Jiao smiled, he floated about three meters away from the Western beauty. This position was the most accurate and fastest place for him to emit lightning. He smiled and said, "Are the sins you mentioned those black auras? The black auras that entangled around you? Yes, I broke free from sin by myself, but what's going on? Why do we have souls after death and what's going on with those sins? By the way, that person gave me ten light spot particles before. What are these light spot particles?"

The Western beauty still maintained that shocked expression. After a long time, she shouted in surprise: "Wow, it seems that I have picked up the treasure this time..." After saying that, she saw Pei Jiao's face change drastically and began to search around her. Only then did she realize that there seemed to be some problems with her grammar, so she hurriedly said: "Don't worry, I have no malicious intentions towards you. What I mean is that I actually found a powerful team member. It seems that we can also form a team together. In this way, we will be the fourth team registered."

Pei Jiao's doubts became even more serious. He didn't say anything to ask questions, but just stared at this Western beauty, wanting to hear what her explanation was.

The Western beauty looked at Pei Jiao's confusion, and she immediately laughed and said, "This is not a good place to talk. Why not go to my house... Well, the home I lived, my parents and brother were still alive. When I got there, I will explain everything in front of you. Haha, to be honest, all this is really incredible. When I heard it, I was stunned for more than a week before I was convinced that what they said was true..." As she spoke, the Western beauty took Pei Jiao's hand as she was already familiar with her, and took him and flew to a place in the city.

The home of this Western beauty was a home of a middle-level white-collar American class. It was a small villa-type single-family residential house, and three-story building. There was also a small garden lawn outside the building. It looked like a very gentle and ordinary residential house.

The Western beauty pulled Pei Jiao to the outside of the building, and then she smiled and said, "By the way, I haven't introduced each other yet. My name is Jenny Bilas, where are you?"

Pei Jiao was thinking about all kinds of doubts in his heart, and after hearing this, he just said casually: "My name is Pei Jiao, Chinese."

Jenny was stunned for a moment, and suddenly burst into laughter and said, "Okay, do you still remember what I said about your nationality wrong? Don't be so stingy? A man should be broader." When she finished speaking, she hurriedly floated into the house, pulled Pei Jiao to penetrate the wall of the house together, and then the two middle-aged couples and a 17 or 18-year-old American young man were sitting at the table talking to each other. What's strange is that the table was clearly full of food, but they had no intention of turning on their chopsticks, as if they were waiting for someone there.

As soon as Jenny saw the three, she immediately let go of Pei Jiao's hand, and then she saw a light flash on her body. The soul body, which was already slightly illusory, immediately became real. This was not counting. What shocked Pei Jiao even more was that the three of them stood up in surprise. Obviously, they had seen Jenny, but they did not come to touch her, but stood there and looked at her with concern.

The young man immediately said, "Sister, why did you come back so late? Didn't it mean it was just a small collective task? There was a big explosion on TV just now, saying that the oil storage tank exploded due to an accident, and we were still worried about you."

Jenny looked at the three people with a smile and said, "I have delayed some things on the road. The goal of this mission is indeed a bit troublesome. They are all intermediate demons. Fortunately, several people here have equipment, and finally got them out. By the way, I will bring back a friend this time. You can have dinner by yourself. I have something to tell this friend."

The middle-aged couple and the American young man immediately looked behind Jenny, where Pei Jiao stood. Of course, they actually couldn't see anything, but what Pei Jiao expected was that the three of them actually showed surprise expressions, and the young man even said directly: "Sister, is he the one with equipment?"

Jenny smiled and shook her head and said, "It's not yet... OK, I have something to talk to him, you guys can have a meal by yourself." After saying that, the glimmer of light on her body gradually faded, and her whole body turned into a three-dimensional illusion. She once again took Pei Jiao's hand and floated up to the second floor.

"Okay, this is my previous room, but now I can speak with confidence."

Jenny pulled Pei Jiao into a neatly decorated feminine room. She then exhaled and said directly: "I know you must have many doubts in your heart. Don't worry, as long as I know, I will explain it to you. I was just dying with such doubts and confusion... But the efforts and the gains are proportional. I will tell you all in detail and hope you can pay some rewards."

Pei Jiao nodded and said, "Indeed, since I have solved my doubts, it is natural that I should pay you a reward. This is a contract, right?"

This is the most basic concept of capital society. If you pay, you will get rewards. This is the most basic spirit of contract. In developed countries in Europe and the United States, this idea is almost implemented by the whole people. Even some underworlds have this idea. They even hire lawyers to manage their industries, etc., and this is what Jenny said.

Jenny smiled slightly and said, "I know you Asians... no, you Chinese should be the most obvious, and you disdain to explain your interests clearly in this way, but what's wrong with saying it clearly? Do you have to sue because of entanglement of interests? Of course, we have no lawsuits now. My request is very simple. I will tell you everything I know. I just hope that after you know all this, you can help me get a weapon, even if it's the most basic weapon. This is my requirement."

Pei Jiao really wanted to ask her what equipment is. As far as he knew, the soul body could not touch everything in this world, so how could it be used? Besides, if the equipment was so easy to obtain, would these soul bodies not know how to directly enter the military's armory? But there were all kinds of equipment. In this way, his doubts were added, so he looked at Jenny more urgently, hoping that Jenny would solve his doubts immediately.

"First of all, we are dead, there is no need to say more about this? We are souls, a special living body composed of spirit and energy, but we have memories and consciousness of previous lives. We are not just a group of hazy monsters as described in novels or movies. We are just special humans. This is the most in touch. Next, the explanation I got from the government..."

In fact, the first thing to discover the existence of a soul was when the US military launched the space war program in the 1980s. In order to study a qualified missile system, it focused on electromagnetic research and attempted to accelerate missiles with electromagnetic use of Gaussian theory to form a new concept missile. However, this research failed, and the by-product of the research was the discovery of the existence of the soul.

Since then, the United States has hidden the research secret and claimed to the outside world that the space war plan failed. Until the end of the 20th century, the research was also leaked due to some foreign agents. From then on, most developed countries and major powers in the world began to study this field.

All countries studied in this field have found that anyone will produce a soul after death, and the soul seems to have consciousness and memory during his lifetime. It is not a ignorant ghost or something. It just makes various countries strange that once these souls die, they will be entangled with a layer of black matter, so that they cannot move at all. What shocked these countries even more was that these souls entangled with black matter will be sucked into the space cracks that appear in the air every day at midnight, and then there will be no trace of them.

With the current technological level of human beings, they could not find the location and where the crack in the space was, and they didn't even know what the black matter outside the soul was. Therefore, the research was once in a dead end. Some scientists even believed in religion, insisting that the crack space led to the hell in religion and the final destination of all soul bodies. This study fell into a dead end, and new variables appeared until 2003 of this century.

That is, a very small number of soul bodies have actually broken free from the black aura. Any soul bodies that have broken free from the black aura are far stronger than the other soul bodies, and they will not be absorbed by the cracked space and still stay in the earth's space. It is because of these soul bodies that research has taken another big step, that is, the strength of the soul is related to the amount of personal information it contains.

In simple terms, this personal information refers to the degree of perseverance of a person's willpower. The stronger the will and the more the soul has the desire to survive, the greater the possibility of breaking away from the black aura. Not only that, scientists have also discovered a clue, that is, the strength of the soul body is also related to the intensity of electromagnetic fluctuations of the entire earth.

In ancient times, there was no artificial electromagnetic fluctuation on the entire earth. Only natural electromagnetic fluctuations existed. Even human brain waves belonged to some kind of weak electromagnetic fluctuation. As human technology became more and more developed, various electrical appliances were invented, and more and more electromagnetic fluctuations appeared on the entire earth. These electromagnetic fluctuations mixed with the brain waves of the human body, forming a resonance that human technology cannot discover and understand at present, thus producing a soul.

"According to the government's saying, there was no soul body in ancient times. Even if there was a soul body, it was the result of the resonance of many brain waves. Well, in other words, it means that belief exists."

Jenny kept explaining all this to Pei Jiao, but it sounded too illusory, and she could not explain it very clearly, so she could only make a metaphor: "For example, in the ancient battlefield, many people had high concentration of willpower, and they were all left with the instinctive desire to kill, so the brain waves of both sides of the battlefield were completely consistent. It can also be said that so many people had the same beliefs, so on the land behind the battlefield, legends such as ghosts often appeared, which meant this. I wonder if you have played the game of the rules of the Dragon and Dungeon?"

Pei Jiao nodded while thinking, "Is it a winter night counting?"

Jenny nodded immediately and said, "Of course, forget it. In the Dungeon and Dungeon rules, the explanation of the gods is somewhat similar to this electromagnetic wave theory. In the Dungeon and Dungeon rules, how do gods gain faith? First of all, it must make its believers believe in its existence, pray to it, and believe in it sincerely. This is actually a resonance of brain waves, achieving ideological will, and thus forming a ‘matter’-the god. Of course, this is just a metaphor, and the research of these scientists

This shows that with the increasing level of modern technology, the electromagnetic waves on the entire earth have gradually reached a critical value, so many people originally needed to believe it together to make it happen. Now it only takes oneself to believe it. For example, believe that there is a soul body. As time goes by, human technology is progressing, and the electromagnetic waves are getting closer to the critical value. At this time, the more powerful the soul bodies they produce, and the more people will break free from the black aura by themselves."

Pei Jiao thought about it for a long time before he nodded and said, "I think I understand what you mean. In fact, this theory sounds incredible, but it is still easy to understand. Do you know whether you know the composition of the human soul."

Jenny said strangely: "The composition of the human soul? What is that?"

Pei Jiao looked at her and said, "The soul is composed of two parts. One is its own obsession, and the other is standard energy, that is, those light spot particles are composed of these two parts. It is probably the product of the resonance of human brain waves and the electromagnetic waves of the earth. It is to believe in one's existence. The more you believe, the stronger your soul will be. Those light spot particles are energy, controlled and combined by their own obsessions to form the soul body... This theory may be true.

, otherwise why in ancient legends, it was always said that only those with great resentment could form a resentful spirit that people saw? It is probably the soul. With great resentment, it refers to the strong brain waves of individuals, with very strong thoughts and will, which formed the soul body. Until modern technology was booming, because electromagnetic waves partially replaced the function of brain waves, the requirement to form a soul has decreased, and as long as individuals can form a soul, that's all."

Jenny immediately clapped his hands and said, "That's right, that's true, and those scientists explained it the same way. According to their statement, as the electromagnetic waves approached the critical point, in addition to the easier formation of human souls, even the ghosts imagined by humans will appear. For example, our collective action today is that hundreds of people attacked the evil demons that appeared in the capital, with a total of fourteen evil demons. More than twenty people died, and even inadvertently detonated an oil storage depot during the action. God knows how many people died in that neighborhood, and there are pedestrians who have been killed by evil demons... Alas." At this point, Jenny sighed sadly, but stopped talking for a long time.

Pei Jiao nodded silently, but he remembered what happened in the underworld hell. At that time, a large number of souls did appear, which caused the space channel to grow larger and last longer, and also allowed him to return from the underworld to this sunny world. Perhaps so many people died because of this accident.

"In other words, the ten units of standard energy bodies I gave me before were about the reward for this collective action? No wonder those white people were so disdainful of me, but they thought I was pretending to be dead in the last battle... This is funny. Is there any saying that the soul body is pretending to be dead? If you encounter those monsters, they don't care whether they are dead or not, just kill them or not." Pei Jiao said in his heart, and then he asked Jenny: "Thank you for telling me all this, which has indeed solved my many confusions. By the way, what method did you use before that can make the living people see you?"

Jenny laughed and said, "It's a very simple technique. You may find it yourself in a few days. You just need to concentrate, as if your whole body is burning slowly. Not only can ordinary people see us, but they can even pick up lighter substances."

Pei Jiao was stunned when he heard this. He was an expert in the soul. During those days in the underworld of hell, he studied himself every day to save his life. After hearing this, he immediately entered a state of calmness. After a little out of mind, a light immediately emerged from his body. This light was not only more obvious than the light that Jenny had previously, but also his image was more real, as if he was just sitting there. He could see clearly with his naked eyes. He did much better than Jenny.

"So that's it, it's just a standard energy body in the combustion body. Calculated based on this combustion time, twenty-four hours of combustion require about one-tenth of the standard energy body, and it's not too much consumption." Pei Jiao nodded, then removed the burning state. It was not until he looked at Jenny that he realized that Jenny looked at him again.

Jenny smiled embarrassedly and said, "Don't be surprised. I have seen so many soul bodies. It is the first time I have seen a soul body that breaks away from sin by myself. It is said that the soul bodies that break away from sin by myself are much stronger than ours, and their will is firm and almost unshakable. I didn't believe it at first, but when I saw you so quickly, I did better than me, but now I really believe it... It seems that my desire to get equipment will be realized soon."

Pei Jiao also smiled back at her and then asked, "Speaking of it, I don't know what equipment is. How do you want me to help you? Tell me out and tell me."

Jenny quickly put away her smile, and she said seriously: "The so-called equipment is the weapons or armor props that people believe in existential. Have you said it before? As the critical point of electromagnetic waves gets closer, in addition to the easier it is to form souls, it will also form ghosts that people think exist, and even those props or places that people think exist will appear. Well, let's give a metaphor. Most of us Westerners believe in God, and we will believe in the Holy Grail, the Ten Rings Cabinet, and even the crown of thorns worn by Jesus when he died. These are all vaguely believed in the hearts. As the electromagnetic waves on the earth accumulate, things that we believe in more and more will appear, and these legendary things will appear. In fact, the British believe in the sword in the stone. As the critical point becomes closer, the sword in the stone may appear."

Pei Jiao was moved and said suddenly: "What do you mean is that these props and weapons are also composed of will like our soul body? So what is their power?"

Jenny said seriously: "It's very big. In fact, we are now souls and cannot use human weapons and props at all. So how should we face the increasing number of ghosts and other things? There are only two ways. One is to break free by yourself, use your own will to merge these ghosts with great perseverance and will, and suppress and melt their evil thoughts. The other is to use those weapons and props to attack ghosts and completely break them into energy, that is, those light spot particles. This is what I said.

Weapons are actually very rare. I have only seen two or three of them. They are all owned by some very strong people. One of the strongest ones is a weapon called a saber. It can store 500 energy points, and its power is exaggerated. In this mission, the man killed three ghosts and even accidentally destroyed a small building. The saber only stored more than 200 points of energy. By the way, we call these weapons that can only be used by souls as natural weapons."

Pei Jiao suddenly heard a weapon that could fight against those monsters. He quickly asked carefully about everything about this so-called weapon. He had a intuition that this information was very, very important to him.

As Jenny said, the so-called natural weapons, armor, and props are created by human beliefs. For example, they believe in the existence of the Holy Grail, the Ten Ring Cabinet, and the Crown of Thorns. As the electromagnetic waves get closer to the critical point, these legendary props are likely to appear. For example, some local legends, such as the British legendary sword, the Stone Gunnell in Nordic mythology, the Golden Cudgel in Chinese mythology, etc., may also appear. However, according to the strength of the legendary power, it is necessary to believe that it exists and the difficulty of realization will increase. It is impossible to appear at this stage. As the critical point of the electromagnetic wave gets closer, the chance of its appearance will be greater.

In addition to these legendary weapons, armor, props, etc., some ordinary weapons, such as the saber, do not require many people to believe that as long as they have existed, they may appear.

These natural weapons, armor, props, etc. do not have power from the beginning. They exist by people's consciousness. In other words, they are actually just obsessions, just like Pei Jiao's own obsessions. However, Pei Jiao's own obsessions are obtained by him who believes in himself, and only has a capacity of more than one hundred. These natural weapons, armor, props, etc. are obtained by many people believe in it, so their obsessions are much greater, but at the beginning they are just obsessions, which is equivalent to having a mold and then constantly filling the standard energy body. In this way, their power will become increasingly huge.

The capacity of each natural weapon, armor, and props is also fixed. For example, the most powerful saber has a standard energy capacity of 500 points, which means it can fill a standard energy body of 500 points, and then it reaches saturation like the soul, and its power reaches the limit. The more powerful the weapon, armor, and props, the greater the capacity.

"...My request is very simple. Since you are the one who breaks free on your own, you will not be afraid of those ghosts or other things. Then you can fantasize about finding me the most ordinary natural weapon, even if it is a weapon with a capacity of only a few dozen points." Jenny looked at Pei Jiao with hope, and she opened her eyes wide and said pitifully.

"Fantasy? Where is that?" Pei Jiao heard unknown words again, and he asked curiously again.

"Since even the legendary weapons and props can appear, what about the legendary places? When people believe that some places have existed, these places will appear on the earth. Now the government has registered all seven or eight places in the world, such as the Devil Castle in Eastern Europe. By the way, the northern and southern battlefields of our country are one of them. This is the fantasy land during the Civil War, which is full of ghosts and zombies holding natural weapons. The saber is something that the leader in this fantasy land has obtained from the hands of a leader in this fantasy land. And according to the government's intentions, as the critical point gets closer, more and more terrifying fantasy will appear on the earth. These fantasy lands are likely to have those legendary weapons, props, armors, etc., and when they reach the critical point, even ordinary people can see the fantasy land." Jenny had to explain patiently again.

Pei Jiao frowned and said, "I have been talking about the critical point for so long. What does that critical point mean? And how long will it take to reach the critical point?"

Jenny suddenly exhaled and said, "The so-called critical point is naturally that the accumulated amount of electromagnetic waves reaches a certain limit. After reaching this limit, it is said that monsters will be physicalized in the places that many people believe in, and even our souls may be physicalized. Not only that, according to the detection of those scientists, the space cracks that absorb the souls in the air are becoming more and more obvious. When the critical point of electromagnetic waves, the world in the cracks in that space will overlap with the earth, and perhaps the souls that are sucked into it will return. The specific time is about the day on December 21, 2012 to reach the positive limit of electromagnetic waves, that is, the critical point of electromagnetic waves..."

"What? The world in the cracks in the space will overlap with this world?!"
