The doomsday of this world was the most confusing one that Shen Yi had experienced so far.
Although he had thought of the Ghost Tamer to deal with it.
But how the evil ghosts appeared and what they would become, he had no idea.
Although it was not impossible that they would slowly disappear after reaching a certain peak.
After all, if they did not appear, the number of evil ghosts that appeared during this period of time would be enough to destroy the entire world. After all, evil ghosts could rapidly grow stronger.
But only the number of evil ghosts in the Great Tang was decreasing?
This was very interesting.
"Are you sure that the number of evil ghosts born in the Great Tang is really decreasing?" Shen Yi emphasized the word "born".
"I can't be sure." Clove shook his head. "My surveillance of this world is based on the firefly detector and high-altitude satellites. And this is a technological means. Only when the evil ghosts begin to show their traces, or at least when they start to scare people, will I be able to detect them."
"So, do you think it has something to do with the control during this period of time?" Shen Yi asked again.
During this period of time, the entire Great Tang did not dare to casually kill people.
Firstly, everyone knew that after death, people could turn into evil ghosts.
Secondly, with the appearance of the Immortal, there were gods everywhere, and no one dared to easily commit evil.
In theory, this should have a certain effect on curbing the birth of evil ghosts.
"It might be related, but the effect of the control should not be to this extent." Clove shook his head again, his cold eyes looking somewhat grave. "Captain, do you still remember the second evil ghost that we dealt with?"
"That old lady?" Shen Yi naturally would not forget.
"She died by accident, but because of her strong unwillingness to accept that her son did not have an heir, she turned into an evil ghost after death." Clove said, "From this, it can be seen that unwillingness also has the possibility of turning into an evil ghost. And from the trend after that, the probability of people turning into evil ghosts after death is constantly increasing. Moreover, the news of the Immortal and the calamity had already spread throughout the Great Tang two months ago, and in these two months, the number of evil ghosts has been on the rise."
Shen Yi understood Clove's meaning.
In the beginning, only those who were extremely unwilling to accept their fate or those who were cruelly tortured could become evil spirits.
However, in the not too distant future, it was possible that they would only leave behind some regrets, or even die a natural death without any regrets. They would also turn into evil spirits.
In other words, although people's subjective avoidance of killing people had a positive effect, it was not enough to stop the increase in the number of wraiths.
"If the number of Evil Spirits hasn't decreased, doesn't that mean that after the Evil Spirits were born, they didn't cause any commotion, and directly disappeared without a trace? That way, you wouldn't be able to find them," Shen Yi added.
"Yes, that's the only possibility," Clove replied.
"That's interesting." Shen Yi showed an interested expression.
After this period of time, the characteristics of the evil spirits were very clear. After they were born, although they had a certain level of consciousness, they were not smart.
It could only instinctively create fear and suck blood.
After becoming stronger, they would not hesitate to kill and consume. To a certain extent, they were completely different creatures from humans.
In theory, as long as such evil spirits began to interfere with reality, frightening or harming people, they would not be able to escape the surveillance of the Firefly Detector.
Shen Yi pondered for a while and came up with an idea.
"You continue to monitor the ghosts that jump out to harm people. I'll work a little harder and use a stupid method to monitor the birth of ghosts in some cities and see if I can find anything."
"Yes." Clove pursed her lips.
When ghosts were born, they disappeared without a trace. It was impossible to find them with just the Firefly Detector.
Using the power of the mysterious side to observe, with her current strength, she could only monitor the entire Chang 'an City at most.
She was still not strong enough.
Her monthly salary was all used to increase her strength, but the growth was still very slow.
It was probably the first time that Clove felt an urgent need to increase her strength.
Shen Yi, on the other hand, was still standing in his original position on the deck. A halo of magic surged in his eyes and formed a complicated pattern.
Fate could not be spied on, so he could only use a stupid method.
Luoyang, Yangzhou, Yizhou, Jingzhou, Jinling.
Five cities.
In these cities, people died every day.
He kept watching.
He wanted to see if the number of evil ghosts was really decreasing or if there was some other reason.
This was naturally a stupid method.
A day passed.
"In this day, a total of 472 people died in the five cities. The souls of seven people have begun to condense into the first ghosts," Shen Yi said.
"Are there seven people?" Clove's eyes narrowed slightly. "This is different from the probability I observed. At present, the number of evil ghosts born in the entire Tang Dynasty accounts for one percent of the deaths, but … it could also be a sample error."
"One percent? That's about five people. "Shen Yi nodded to show that he knew.
One percent was actually not a small number.
One must know that this was one percent of all deaths.
Including natural deaths, deaths of diseases, premature deaths, and accidents in childbirth. Based on the population and average age of this era, in less than forty to fifty years, there would be hundreds of thousands of evil ghosts born. This was under the condition that the probability remained unchanged and the evil ghosts were controlled to harm people.
If they did not come.
This world would definitely become a ghost town, without any living creatures.
Shen Yi continued to stare at the five cities, especially the seven ghosts that had been born.
By now, almost every important city in the Tang Dynasty had at least three Ghost Controllers stationed permanently. After all, once an evil ghost appeared in a city, if it was not killed in the cradle as soon as possible, it would soon cause serious consequences.
In Yizhou City, there were also three Ghost Controllers stationed.
The one leading them was Cui Ren.
He was also one of the first Ghost Controllers in the Tang Dynasty. In the beginning, he followed Immortal Gu and killed ghosts everywhere for more than two months. The ghosts he controlled had already reached the second level.
That was why he could guard a big city.
Usually, in addition to receiving information about ghosts and checking it out, he also had to record the deaths in the city every day.
Because every one of them could turn into an evil ghost.
Of course, these things were also handled by other people. Only under special circumstances would they be informed.
At this time, in Yizhou City, there were two newly born ghosts. One of them had already started to become active when night fell.
Because of insufficient resentment, it was not very strong when it was born. It could only scare others to absorb vitality.
With a scream in the night, the news quickly reached Cui Ren.
"I'll go personally. The two of you continue to guard." Black fog appeared on Cui Ren's body and he rushed straight to the place where the evil ghost was suspected to have appeared.
