Chapter 688 It Just Wants to Make Friends
Lin Mo was standing in the ancient city, looking at the fifteen-meter-high city wall around him, and nodded with satisfaction.
This place is a very good safe zone, very much in line with his expectations.
With some planning, it will not be a problem to accommodate tens of thousands of people here.
It can somewhat relieve the pressure outside.
Perhaps because of nightmares, the ancient city now looks almost like a ghost town. It is extremely quiet and pitch black, and the outlines of some houses can be vaguely seen in the distance.
"If it were me, I would keep the city wall, bulldoze all these dilapidated houses, and build buildings or tall buildings to accommodate 100,000 people." Lin Mo expressed his plan.
Next to him are Mr. Liao and Lao Qi.
Lao Qi was okay, he was a professional after all, but Mr. Liao was not. He couldn't hide the fear on his face. The two of them were leaning together at this time, looking around vigilantly.
In Lin Mo's opinion, this was all about scaring himself.
It's like being in a wild place with beautiful scenery. Under normal circumstances, you will feel that the scenery here is beautiful and people will feel relaxed here; but if I tell you that there is a bloodthirsty tiger in this wild place with beautiful scenery, it has eaten many people. , I believe no one thinks this place is good anymore. People will feel nervous here, wary of any slightest disturbance, and feel unsafe, thinking that the tiger is hiding somewhere they can't see, staring at them.
This is the negative emotion caused by fear.
Sometimes, it can even affect a person's normal judgment and make wrong decisions.
Lao Qi had personally experienced the horrific incidents here, so Lin Mo asked him about the specific situation.
"I don't know what the nightmare that destroyed Group B is, but I have seen two other types. One is an unsolvable ghost. If you attack it, it will transfer all the damage to another person. The result is it It’s okay, but our companion is dead; there is also a family of five, those five ghosts are so scary, they like to eat people, and they never seem to have enough to eat.”
Lao Qi's voice was trembling.
All his team members died like this.
Either die in the hands of one's own people, or be eaten up by that family of five.
Every time he thought of this scene, it was a kind of torture for him, especially the scene of a family of five eating their companions. He really didn't want to remember it again.
"President Lin, I, Lao Qi, can be considered a ruthless person, but this matter cannot be solved by being ruthless and trying to show off your abilities. You are really not enough on your own. We still have time to go out now, so we can find more experts to come over. Otherwise, whatever you come will be given away.”
Lao Qi's words were sincere. The main reason was that he was also afraid of death. More than thirty people were useless before. This time the three of them came. What if they weren't seeking death?
Lin Mo is undoubtedly professional when it comes to dealing with nightmares.
He ignored Lao Qi's kind words of comfort and continued to ask for details about the ghost and the starving family of five.
Lao Qi finally figured it out. This man was very determined and would not look back until he hit the wall, so he could only tell him everything he knew in detail.
Of course, Lin Mo asked not to talk about it where he was, but to take the initiative to look for ghosts and three generations of hungry ghosts. This move made Lao Qi and Mr. Liao even more dissatisfied.
But I dare not say it.
This 'Mr. Lin' is not an easy person to talk to either.
"I see!"
After listening to Lao Qi's words, Lin Mo already had a clue in his heart.
"What do you understand?" Lao Qi was puzzled. He didn't understand it himself, but the other party understood it? Are you talking nonsense?
Lin Mo said: "Let's not talk about the three generations of starving ghosts in the family of five. You have provided relatively few clues and I can't judge yet. But about the ghost that follows you like a shadow, I now have a basic conclusion. Let me ask you, when did that ghost follow you?"
"I don't know. The other party was silent. If the leader of Group A hadn't had the habit of counting people, none of the dozen or so of us would have noticed the ghost following him."
"Well, that means the other party may have been following you for a long time, right?"
"Yes, this is indeed a possibility, but is there any problem with this?"
"Of course there is a problem. Think about it, if it is a ghost with malicious intentions and wants to kill you immediately, and it has been following you silently for so long, why doesn't it take action?"
"Ah, this..."
Lao Qi didn't know how to answer at once, because he also found that what Lin Mo said made sense.
If that ghost was really dangerous, why not sneak attack them.
Lin Mo smiled: "You are a little inexperienced. Let me tell you, there are only two situations for a ghost like this. One is that it is malicious, but its ability does not rely on active attacks to kill people."
"Yes, yes, that's what it is. It's tempting us to kill it and then pass the harm on to other people." Lao Qi suddenly realized.
Lin Mo shook his head: "That's not necessarily the case. According to what you said, after you discovered the ghost, you took action out of fear. In fact, you don't have to take action."
"Don't do anything? What do you mean?" Lao Qi was confused. He was a rough man with low education. He had been involved in society since he was young. Now he was confused by Lin Mo.
"If you don't take action, you just don't take action. Let me ask you, did the ghost force you to take action?"
"Uh, it seems not."
"Or did it make some moves, use words to tease, or even provoke you to take action?"
"nor."
"That's it. The second situation I'm talking about is this. The ghost has no malice at all. It may be just a lost lamb. Even if it is filled with resentment and hatred, you can completely ignore it. Accept these sincerely and treat them as your friends.”
"ah!"
"ah!"
This time not only Lao Qi, but also Mr. Liao next to him was confused.
The theory attached to Lin Mo's argument directly made these two people's heads spin. The main reason was that after careful consideration, they found that Lin Mo's words actually made sense.
Yes, why do you want to attack that ghost?
Did it do anything bad?
Mr. Liao turned to look at Lao Qi and asked. Lao Qi shook his head and said that the ghost actually did nothing, just followed them.
That's all.
"Then why are you doing this? Are you free?" Mr. Liao was angry.
"I, we are not..." Lao Qi didn't know how to explain, because he had been deceived by Lin Mo until now, and he felt that he had made a wrong decision at that time.
That is to act rashly in fear.
Is it possible that if they don't take action, they won't die.
Lao Qi thought of those teammates who died in vain.
His heart ached.
"So, you are too anxious. At least according to what you said, that ghost is quite good. It is deflecting the harm entirely to protect itself. Maybe, it just wants to make a friend, and it may even be kind-hearted."
God is so awesome at making friends, God is so kind-hearted.
But it is undeniable that both Mr. Liao and Lao Qi think what Lin Mo said makes sense.
It's possible, that's really what happened.
As soon as he said this, Lao Qi narrowed his eyes and looked behind Mr. Liao.
Lin Mo had already looked over before Lao Qi, with a smile on his face.
When Mr. Liao realized that the two people were looking at each other wrongly, he froze and his face turned pale. As a successful businessman and an arrogant boss, he can strategize in the capital market and dominate the situation, but such an arrogant person is also afraid of ghosts.
Especially he knew that the ghosts in the nightmare world were real.
It can eat people.
His hair was numb now, so he asked what are you looking at? Is there something behind me?
"Mr. Liao, that ghost is right behind you." Lao Qi said. Mr. Liao's legs went weak and he almost sat on the ground.
At this time, he also felt the coldness emanating from behind him.
It's okay to see this situation now, but it's even more terrifying if you can't see it.
The deformed nightmare on Lao Qi's belly was a little bit ready to move, maybe it felt the ghost's malice and resentment, and wanted to attack.
Lao Qi couldn't control the ghost in his stomach at this time. Fortunately, at this time, Lin Mo slapped the deformed ghost in the face.
"Be honest. If you mess around, I'll kill you first."
Lin Mo issued a threat.
He knew very well that according to what Lao Qi said, this ghost was actually not a big threat, but it was definitely 'dangerous'.
The reason why it is dangerous is its ability to transfer damage without any solution.
Typical, I'm not afraid if you hit me.
The one who really bears the attack is any person within a certain range.
It could be Lao Qi, Mr. Liao, or it could be myself.
Therefore, you must not attack ghosts.
Lao Qi's deformed ghost was beaten to death by a slap, which surprised Lao Qi. You know, this parasitic ghost parasitic on his body is not a good boy.
It gets so fierce that even I can't control it.
Little did he know that Lin Mo had used several curses in his slap just now.
Lin Mo told Mr. Liao not to move at this time. He walked behind him and carefully looked at the motionless ghost figure with his head lowered.
Say hello first.
no response.
Next, Lin Mo did some tests to confirm that the ghost would not attack actively.
It was consistent with his previous speculation.
But this further shows that Ghost Shadow's ability to transfer damage is terrifying.
So the best way to deal with it is not to touch it, let alone attack it.
Because when the time comes, you may be the one who dies.
However, although the other party did not respond, Lin Mo knew that the ghost should be able to hear him.
"Since you want to be with someone, then you can follow me. Mr. Liao has no other hobbies except making money, which is very boring. As for me, I have many hobbies. If you follow me, it will definitely not be boring. How about ?”
The ghost didn't respond.
Lin Mo continued to lie: "I have many other friends, male, female, both male and female; old, young, little lolita, there are only things you can't think of, there are none that I don't have, you think about it, no It doesn’t matter if you want to. If business doesn’t work out, we will still be friends.”
After saying that, he ignored the other party.
He knew very well that the deal on the pole would not work out.
Anyway, we already know that this ghost is not dangerous as long as we don't attack it. That's easy, just ignore it and just ignore it.
