Chapter 496 A Peculiar Perspective

Supernatural incidences have been viewed common occurrences by Gao Ge.

Yet, he still feels horrified to see the scene before him.

It is pretty horrid.

It is not that the scene has caused any visual impact on him.

Actually, he didn’t sense that anything showed up behind him after standing there for a long while.

Moreover, even the golden monkey and the fox spirit didn’t give Gao Ge any warning.

Obviously, they didn’t sense anything either.

If this horrid thing directly struck a move at Gao Ge instead of lighting the kerosene lamp, the consequence would be unimaginable.

It’s beyond Gao Ge’s understanding.

How come the old woman lit the kerosene lamp?

To light up the house?

Or to have a talk at night with him?

The thing before him...

Just call it as the old woman for now.

Gao Ge is aware that the old woman has been dead for a long time.

Gao Ge thinks for a while and then sits down.

The chair under his butt is full of spider webs. God knows how long it has been.

The fox spirit has come in.

The golden monkey watches Tang Yashi and Chen Guo.

Evidently, Gao Ge still cares much about these two persons. If they encounter any danger, it can get them out of danger then. After all, it is not a bad thing.

“Master...” The fox spirit walks to the feet of Gao Ge and calls him.

Gao Ge nods his head and asks, “What is going on?”

“The monster’s soul hides in her corpse, or the corpse will become a pile of bones. However, even so, the corpse still keeps decaying. To conceal the Qi and blood with the monster’s soul can only slow down the speed of decaying,” the fox spirit says.

Gao Ge is surprised, “You didn’t notice that before?”

“It conceals its own aura with the Qi of the dead.” The fox spirit feels a bit guilty.

She feels that she doesn’t do her job well.

Gao Ge nods his head and doesn’t ask further.

Seemingly, the old woman doesn’t intend to talk.

She just stares at Gao Ge quietly.

Stared by the old woman, Gao Ge feels rather uncomfortable and hopes to disperse her by swinging a punch at her.

However, he may not be able to do that. Moreover, she doesn’t initiate attack, thus making it improper for him to attack first.

Now the old woman opens her mouth and roars.

The wild cats outside the house immediately scatter away like getting an order.

Chen Guo and Tang Yashi are finally relieved. They are not injured.

Suddenly Gao Ge feels the energetic fluctuation on the old woman.

Hence, he subconsciously frowns and ruminates whether he needs to do something.

“Hem?” The fox spirit suddenly feels confused.

“What’s the matter?”

The fox spirit whispers, “Master, the monster’s soul wants to put you into a phantom scene.”

“A phantom scene?”

“Yeah... It is not correctly said. To be accurate, it will describe to you what it saw before, but it is a small trick, which I can stop easily,” the fox spirit says confidently.

Gao Ge doesn’t immediately answer her.

After thinking for a while, he says calmly, “Let the cat bring it on.”

The fox spirit is apparently a bit surprised. She even doesn’t utter any word.

Gao Ge says laughingly, “Aren’t you with me?”

The fox spirit understands what Gao Ge means and says sincerely, “I will try my best to protect you well!”

Gao Ge laughs.

With the fox spirit’s promise, Gao Ge is much more relieved.

Therefore, when the power comes on him, Gao Ge still appears calm.

He believes that the fox spirit doesn’t dare to risk his life.

After all, for them, benefit to one means benefit to both, whereas harm to one means harm to both.

They are entirely bounded now.

Moreover, he has got the golden monkey.

This is a double insurance.

Then, Gao Ge senses that a potential power is slipping into his body, like a virus.

For the moment, Gao Ge quickly feels stressed and falls into a dizzy trance.

Instantly, the scene before Gao Ge is changed.

First, it is a trash bin that comes to his sight.

At the moment,

Gao Ge feels like being trapped into an illusion.

However, he can clearly know that it is not an illusion, because he cannot move at all.

He feels like watching everything happen from a peculiar perspective.

He smells a weird odor mixed with all kinds of smells from the trash bin.

There is sour smell.

There is spicy smell.

And...

The rancid smell too.

Then his perspective starts to change.

He climbs up and goes into the trash bin, trying to find something to eat.

Right at the moment, he suddenly jumps off the trash bin.

Then he looks aside and sees a woman behind.

She is in her sixties, wearing a floral dress and a pair of multi-layer-sole cloth shoes.

He subconsciously takes a few steps backwards.

On the contrary, the woman walks forward.

She reaches out her hand to hold him tightly in her arms.

At the moment, Gao Ge feels the warmth that doesn’t belong to the winter...

The perspective is still changing.

This time, he is in a room.

The old woman is working in the kitchen. There is a radio on the table. Probably because the signal is not very good, the radio keeps buzzing.

He stands up and paces around with four legs walking on the ground.

When the woman almost finishes her work, she brings a well-cleaned porcelain bowl, in which there is a small grass carp.

It is only as big as a palm.

“Eat. Just eat,” the old woman says. “This is your home then. Don’t run about.”

He doesn’t speak anything but to lower his head to eat the fish in the bowl.

Gao Ge doesn’t eat fish, probably because the fish that his mother cooks doesn’t taste good and it is always poached fish in chili oil with a lot of fishbone. Now he is faced with a raw fish.

However, when he starts to eat the fish, he feels that it is a yummy delicacy.

It’s like...

His mind is not his anymore.

Instead of rushing to do anything, Gao Ge intends to keep watching quietly. Life goes on plainly. As time goes by, it is summer now.

He has no idea how long he has stayed here and only feels familiar with everything in this place.

He knows the name of the old woman as well as the neighbors. He also knows that there is a calico cat called Cuicui living on the opposite and a rural dog in the back.

The rural dog never bullies him and Cuicui. They get along well with each other.

Such a life is rather peaceful.

If there is anything perturbing, that is, every few days the old woman sits on a chair and watches the photos on the wall.

She sits there for several hours.

He has never met anyone in the photos but the old woman.

One day, he suddenly sees a man called as Yao’er by the old woman.

Yao’er drives a black vehicle here without any presents while the old woman looks rather thrilled.

She starts to set about making a dinner and hurries to buy groceries.

Gao Ge wants to go near him and see Yao’er but he is kicked away.

“Crap. She can hardly support herself. Why bother to raise a cat?” Yao’er groans with curses, which makes Gao Ge realize that Yao’er is not a nice person to get along with.
