37. Like a shadow
The black candle was still burning with a crimson flame.
Su Wu blew hard at it, but it didn't go out.
On the contrary, as he blew, a cold breath was about to enter his mouth.
Fortunately, his ghost hand blew a gust of wind on the candle flame, and finally extinguished the black candle.
He held an ordinary candle burning orange flame and approached the extinguished black candle.
The orange flame suddenly licked the wick of the black candle, and a little orange-red flame suddenly flashed from the top of the black candle. The flame spread out and instantly covered the area of 20 to 30 meters around!
Being in the orange-red flame, Su Wu suddenly felt a stream of warm air running around in his body like a mouse.
Wherever the air flow passed, his skin turned golden red, and the cells in his body seemed to proliferate, fission, and grow!
This was definitely not Su Wu's illusion!
In just a dozen seconds, his hair grew about one centimeter longer!
The most obvious external manifestation is the lengthening of hair.
Su Wu felt that his physical strength was growing rapidly, and he seemed to have endless energy. He instantly swept away the sub-health state and became energetic and vigorous!
He turned his head and looked behind him.
Jiang Yingying's hair had grown a lot longer without him noticing.
Her cheeks were rosy and her eyes were shining, which was very different from her previous lifeless state.
Even the emergency cans in her arms had a metallic luster on every feather, the black and sharp beak flashed black light, and the cockscomb on her head was more blood-red, turning as red as a flame!
‘After the black candle is ignited by the orange fire in the small temple, it will greatly improve the physical fitness of the living things within the range of the candlelight? ! ’
‘Is this improvement temporary or permanent? ’
Su Wu carefully felt the changes in himself under the reflection of the candlelight, and soon found that the orange fire of the black candle had the greatest improvement in the first ten seconds.
After more than ten seconds, his physical fitness improved slightly, but less than one percent of the previous one.
Then, he extinguished the black candle.
The warm current flowing through his body slowly faded.
But the sense of strength and vigor in his body did not disappear.
—— After the black candle was lit with orange fire, it would permanently improve the physical fitness of living things within the range!
This improvement is most significant within the first ten seconds of using the black candle.
After that, the improvement will drop sharply.
It is roughly equivalent to the improvement brought by eating half a roasted whole lamb under the blessing of the Hercules' curse.
I wonder if the "black candle" has this effect and can be brought to the secret storage area and used as an offering or even a binding device?
Su Wu put away the black candle.
He still kept the ordinary candle burning, and kept the fire brought from the temple from going out.
The black candle that continued the fire in the temple has the effect of improving the physical fitness of ordinary living things.
I wonder if it has a restraining effect on other weirdness except the eye weirdness?
This is what Su Wu is going to test next.
The reason why the eye ghost was not included as an experimental subject is that during the time when the black candle was burning just now, the red lantern in the sky rose once.
The flames from the burning black candle blended with the red light emitted by the red lantern, and did not produce any special reaction.
"How do you feel?
Do you feel like you have a lot more power?" Su Wu asked Jiang Yingying while holding a candle and walking towards the car behind him.
Jiang Yingying nodded hesitantly.
"That's not an illusion.
It is indeed this candle that has improved your physical fitness." Su Wu opened the door of the driver's seat and sat in first.
After him, Jiang Yingying hesitated for a moment and followed him into the back seat of the car.
The car started again and rushed to the unknown area.
In the car, Jiang Yingying also plucked up the courage to talk to Su Wu.
...
"Ding Dong! Ding Dong! Ding Dong!"
After a conversation with Su Wu, Jiang Yingying finally dispelled some of her worries.
She sat back and relaxed, but the phone in her pocket suddenly started to emit message notification sounds.
This sound attracted Su Wu's attention.
The girl looked at Su Wu apologetically, reached out to take out the phone in her pocket, and then saw messages popping up on the screen.
"Xiao Naofu invites you to join the third working group of Boyu."
"Wang Zhiyou invites you..."
"Huang Zhicheng invites you..."
Jiang Yingying frowned. She didn't know any of the people who invited her to join the working group.
She unlocked the screen and clicked into the social software.
But she saw chat messages that were completely different from her social account.
A group chat named "Fishing Man";
Ping An Garden tenant group;
Outdoor fishing man equipment collection...
Jiang Yingying was sure that she had never joined any chat group in the interface, and had never added any of the chat objects as friends!
What's going on?
Is the phone infected with a virus?
She subconsciously clicked into her personal interface.
Suddenly she saw that the user name on the personal interface was 'Gong Zi Chi Bing', and the personal account was completely different from hers!
How could her own phone log into someone else's social account for no reason?
Jiang Yingying finally reacted.
At this time, Su Wu asked her, "What happened?"
“No…” She wanted to log out of this social account, but she couldn’t find the exit button no matter what, so she could only watch the invitation messages flashing in vain.
She also felt an inexplicable fear in her heart.
She felt that what was happening at the moment was extremely strange.
“I don’t know how my phone logged into someone else’s WeChat account, and now I can’t log out…”
She pursed her lips and subconsciously spoke to Su Wu, wanting to hear if this person would give any advice.
“Is the WeChat user name called Gongzi Chibing?”
Su Wu pushed the steering wheel, and he had a premonition in his heart.
Is it true that the ghost of the corpse is not so easy to get rid of...
"Yes, eh?" Jiang Yingying looked up at the rearview mirror in the car. She was sure that Su Wu could not see the content of her mobile phone through the mirror. She was very surprised, "How did you know?"
"Because Gongzi Chibing is my social account." He grinned, "Some other ghosts are tracking me through the mobile phone you carry.
Just in case, you should throw the phone away."
"Ah!"
Jiang Yingying was shocked when she heard it. She hesitated for a while with the phone in her hand, but still opened the car window and threw the phone out.
The "Ding Dong" and "Ding Dong" prompts were torn into pieces by the wind.
The car passed through a busy commercial street.
Many vehicles were parked on the road in all directions.
Soon after Jiang Yingying threw out her mobile phone, lights kept flashing in the pockets of the clothes of the headless corpses in the cars.
As the black Cruze passed by, various prompts gradually sounded in those vehicles.
"Xiao Naofu invites you to join Boyu's third working group."
"Wang Zhiyou invites you..."
"Huang Zhicheng invites you..."
...
