East Ying Weird Creation

Chapter 1 The Hole in the Corner of the Basement
Gu Xing rented a damp basement in an apartment in Li City.

One night, when he came home from overtime work, he found a finger-thick hole in one side of the basement wall near the floor tiles.

I lay down at the entrance of the cave and looked at it for a while. There was some light inside, but I couldn't see the specific scene clearly.

Could it be that the young couple next door accidentally cut through the wall when they were hammering nails into the wall or punching holes?
It is ridiculous enough to punch holes in this position.

The sound insulation in the basement is generally not very good, and any movement from the next door can be heard.

Especially in the dead of night... For Gu Xing, a young man who has been single for many years, it is really not friendly.

Gu Xing has endured it for a long time, and today he must take this opportunity to negotiate with justice.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

"Who?"

"next door."

"It's so late, what's the matter?"

"It's really disturbing, but it's better to clarify some things tonight."

"squeak--"

It was a man who opened the door, yawning, "Why are you in such a hurry."

"Sorry, I want to ask, did the two of you punch a hole in the wall today?"

"Hole?"

The man looked blank.

"That's it, heck—" Gu Xing gestured with his right hand to look like an electric drill, imitating the sound of the electric drill, and drilled into the wall beside him, "Hey——"

"Oh..." The man understood, and turned his head to look at the woman hiding under the quilt in the house, "Hey, did you drill a hole today?"

The woman shook her head.

"Let me just say it," the man looked at Gu Xing, "Did you make a mistake?"

"I'm really sorry, but I want to go inside and take a look." Gu Xing pointed to the wall inside the room: "Because there is an inexplicably extra hole in the wall on my side, I have to find the reason before I can feel at ease."

The man looked a little embarrassed, but the woman smiled, "It's understandable, let's take a look, there's nothing inconvenient."

Gu Xing walked into the room, the woman was wrapped in a quilt, sitting on the bed like a rice dumpling, looking at Gu Xing with a curious expression.

Although they have been neighbors for several months, because of the different work and rest schedules, this is the first time Gu Xing has seen a woman.

It's very different from what Gu Xing once guessed. Even in the state of bare makeup, a woman's face is delicate enough, and her long eyelashes can be seen clearly two or three meters away.The eyes are big and beautiful, and the eyes are calm and generous.

It's outrageous that this kind of woman is willing to live in the basement.

For reasons of politeness, Gu Xing's eyes only stayed on the woman's face for a moment, then turned his attention to the adjacent walls of the two rooms, and scanned around carefully.

There were some stains and black marks from scratches on the walls, but no signs of holes.

"I'm really sorry to bother you two so late."

After the inspection, Gu Xing hurriedly said goodbye.

"It's okay, I've been a neighbor for a while and haven't visited yet," the man stood at the door, "Why don't you just sit down and have a cup of tea and chat casually."

"Uh... I have to get up early for work tomorrow."

"That's a pity, we will visit another day."

"welcome……"

It was a waste of time, and I was treated politely and patiently.

Feeling guilty, Gu Xing didn't have the nerve to remind the other party to be as quiet as possible in the future, or adjust the time slot, either during the day, or at night when the neighbors are still asleep.

Back in the basement of his home, Gu Xing looked at the small hole and wondered in his heart, if it wasn't the neighbor who made the hole, what would it be, insects?The worm's mouth is really good enough.

Gu Xing lay down again and stared at the entrance of the cave for a long time.Since the small hole has not been opened to lead the house, it means that the end of the hole is within the wall, but why is there light?

Gu Xing thought for a while, and decided to stick his fingers into the hole to explore.

Logically speaking, you should take a stick or chopsticks and poke it first.But for some reason, there was a voice in Gu Xing's ear saying to himself: Use your hands, you must use your fingers!
Then use your fingers.

If there is a bug, kill it with one finger.

If you are unfortunately bitten by a poisonous insect, call for an ambulance.Maybe it is possible to obtain some kind of extraordinary special function, which is made up in comics and online novels, the so-called blessing in disguise.

Gu Xing stretched all his fingers in, there were no bugs, and the hole was empty.

But the hand feels very strange, there are bursts of numbness from the fingertips, as if a thin layer of membrane has been pierced, and then there is a refreshing feeling of coolness and numbness.

Gu Xing lay on the ground, relaxed all over, the fatigue of the day was washed away by the refreshment from his fingertips.

It seems that the electric car is plugged into the charging pile, and a steady stream of energy pours into the body.

Soon, Gu Xing forgot everything, lay down on the floor, and fell asleep unknowingly.

When he woke up again, an unknown amount of time had passed, Gu Xing was still lying on the ground, and the half of his body near the floor was numb.

After lying on the floor for so long, the humid air in the basement didn't make Gu Xing feel uncomfortable all over, which is really surprising.

The lights in the room are bright, and there is no sense of time passing.

This is a common problem with basements, which have no windows to show the homeowner the changing weather.

Gu Xing looked up at his watch,

"No, I'm going to be late."

He pulled out his fingers, feeling an indescribable feeling of pulling away, as if pulling his fingers back from another world, passing through the barrier of time and space, goosebumps all over his body weirdly.

"It's just crazy..."

Gu Xing got up, washed up briefly, tidied up his clothes, and went out.

During the time when he is not at work, Gu Xing likes to wear a hooded sweater.If you don't want to talk to others, you can put on a hoodie at any time, as if you are isolated from the whole world.Inside the hat is only one's own space, and it doesn't matter if the sky falls outside the hat.

Today's basement passage seems a bit strange. Neighbors who are rarely seen have all come out of their small dwellings and walked outside noisily.

The couple next door also came out, following the flow of people in their pajamas.

"Good morning, isn't this our neighbor?" The man giggled and waved to Gu Xing, "By the way, I haven't asked Gao's name yet."

"Gu Xing, wake up, wake up."

"It doesn't look like a native name."

"Hmm..." It was a bit strange, but Gu Xing was too lazy to explain.To make it clear, I have to start with the fact that he came to this parallel world a long time ago and gradually lost a lot of memories... What's more, he couldn't think of many things by himself.

"My name is Ryuichi Kawamura," Ryuichi pointed to his beautiful girlfriend, "She is Chiyo Hasegawa."

"Nice to meet you." Chiyo smiled.

"Me too," it would be better if the night was less rowdy.

Gu Xing quickly moved his eyes away from Chiyo's face, and looked at the crowd, "What's going on, an earthquake?"

"You didn't watch the news?"

"I just got up and I'm going to be late, so..."

Long Yi took out his phone, clicked on a video, and handed it to Gu Xing.

On the video, it seems to be a recording of a certain news, which broadcasts the festive and peaceful scene of the Cherry Blossom Festival in the outskirts of the city.

Suddenly, the screen changed and switched back to the studio.

The hostess looked serious,
[Next, we will insert a piece of news that our station has just received.

At 23:34 pm Eastern Time, a strange phenomenon appeared over the center of Lidu, a huge finger fell from the sky, pointing directly at Lidu Central Park...]

"You say it's outrageous," Long clicked his tongue twice, "It's not yet April Fool's Day, if this is not the news from Lidu TV station, I would suspect who is playing a prank."

Gu Xing watched the video and opened his mouth wide.

The female anchor's clear words were blurred and distorted in his ears for some reason.

……

Gu Xing followed the flow of people to the outside of the basement.

Long Yi was beside Gu Xing, watching the huge finger on the mobile phone video, and whispering in his ear, "Gu Xingjun, this finger looks very white and beautiful, could it be a woman's hand?"

His girlfriend Chiyo said, "I'm sure it belongs to a man."

"why?"

"A woman's intuition."

"Oh, I see. Is it the intuition that you chose me to be your boyfriend in the first place?"

"cut."

"Admit it quickly."

Gu Xing was choked up by the dog food, and walked out of the basement.

The sky was getting brighter, and the open space behind the apartment was full of spectators.The citizens of Lidu have always regarded gossip and bustle as more important than work and life.But there are very few people who are really willing to meddle in their own business. For example, people who watch the drowning by the lake, and those who are willing to go to the lake to save others, are often one in a hundred.

Gu Xing looked in the direction of the Central Park like the onlookers -

At this moment, there is a huge black hole in the sky above Central Park, with a visual diameter of about one kilometer, and the giant finger mentioned in the news report has disappeared.

Long Yi and his girlfriend walked to his side, took out their mobile phones again, and the news TV station was broadcasting live on the Internet.

It was the same female anchor from before. Although she tried her best to keep her spirits up, tiredness could be seen on her beautiful face. She had been busy all night for this change that was enough to ignite a news feast.

[Next, continue to broadcast the latest news about "Li Kong Juzhi" received by this station.

On October 10th, at 19:37 a.m. Kyoto time, the huge finger above Central Park suddenly disappeared, leaving a huge black hole with a diameter of about 1.2 kilometers in midair.

At present, the police headquarters has organized on-duty police forces to blockade the area, and the cause of the incident is still under investigation...]

Gu Xing shrank his fingers subconsciously, as if a cool wind from another world passed by his fingertips.

----------

[Written after Chapter 1, readers should take a look at the content (to avoid poison points)]

The author here explains some ideas and settings of this book in advance, which is equivalent to the preface of this book.

In fact, writing this is mainly to prevent some readers from reading a lot of content and finding out that they have touched the poisonous point of mine, and regret it terribly.

First of all, this is the first time the author has tried the combination of behind-the-scenes and grotesque. Frankly speaking, I was inspired after watching "I Create an Urban Legend in Tokyo", "I am in Tokyo Cthulhu" and "Mysterious Recovery". There will be many parts, and I hope to write some new things.

Secondly, this novel takes Dongying, another parallel world, as the background area of ​​the story. It refers to many local systems, cultures, and customs, but it has been modified and adjusted according to the actual situation of the novel. If any research party finds any mistakes, please respect Please criticize and correct.

Thirdly, in order for the story to end smoothly and not be caught in the river, as far as possible, it will not involve Chinese culture-related content, conflicts between countries will not occur, and there will be no protagonists who kill innocents indiscriminately, bloody violence, and villain-like characters.At the same time, it also prevents readers from bringing in Chinese identities.In short, it is good to treat it as a country in another parallel world as much as possible.

[In conclusion——a very important point, before reading this book, you must remember that this is a parallel country in a parallel world, and it is another time and space chosen by the author for safe creation.A world whose history, structure and our world are very different]

Before publishing the book, I also set myself a few creative principles for the poisonous points that tend to appear behind the scenes.

First, never add elements such as aura and mana to the settings, so as not to mess up the settings and distract attention.

Second, the protagonist observes the world silently after the small hole, describes the grotesque, never goes to the foreground, and is incorporated by the official grotesque organization to avoid the tragedy of Ye Shenyue.

Third, like "Mystery Recovery" and "Urban Legend", adhere to the three principles, 1. The grotesque is the rule; pleasure.

Fourth, insist on highlighting the uniqueness of the protagonist.

Fifth, adhere to the restrained and restrained style of writing, and try to conform to the atmosphere of this type of novel as much as possible.

I don't know if I can do it in the specific creation process, I hope I can go all out.

In short, the new book is starting to sail, and I especially need support, please recommend, ask for investment, and ask for this chapter (want to copy).
