Chapter 201 Unplanned
Luo Xi opened his eyes.
Before, due to the overwhelming pressure of various curses, he felt unprecedented pain. Not to mention weak and weak, his body was more like being penetrated by countless knives, and it was on the verge of being broken, or in other words, Already damaged and broken.
In addition, the terrible curse of deafness and blindness has also been contaminated.
But at this moment, Luo Xi could still see things. The terrible pain and negative senses caused by those curses were like the marks on the bed, which returned to smoothness after a slight sweep.
Luo Xi smiled.
"Sure enough, the identity change after being replaced by a ghost can lift the original curse. In other words, the ghost who replaced me inherited those curses after taking over my identity."
The situation was critical before, and Luo Xi had no other way to resolve it except shaking the [Soul-Calling Bell].
The [Soul-Calling Bell] is a double-edged sword. If you use it to kill the enemy, it will bite you back with a curse.
This cannot be avoided.
But it can be 'replaced' with some other rules within the scene.
Luo Xi began to think about this issue as early as after learning the rule of 'scapegoat'. What happened before was just a reasoning practice in a critical situation.
The person who is named and replaced will become a "ghost", and the "ghost" who replaces him will inherit all the status of this person.
Curse is also an additional state.
The possibility of being inherited is extremely high.
This is equivalent to borrowing money like crazy and then dumping the debt on that 'ghost'.
Although in the deduction, this method has a high probability of success, it is still risky, so Luo Xi characterized this matter as a 'gamble'.
It’s just a gamble with a trump card.
Next, the focus is on how to ensure that you will be ‘named’.
Similarly, he has also deduced this matter carefully. It is known that the scapegoat rule is a random naming mechanism. That is to say, if there is only one memory collector left in the scene who is not protected by the talisman. , or two, each time one or more people are named for the dead ghost, then in the current 'dark night' rotation, the probability of being named is 50% to 100%.
After several rounds of day and night rotations, Ke Lan may be the only unprotected 'memory collector' left in the scene.
So on this dark night, it was inevitable that Ke Lan would be chosen.
In addition, when Luo Xi was fighting the devil, he also threw away his 'protection', the talisman.
It is equivalent to voluntarily giving up the protection of 'immunity to roll call' and exposing himself.
So his probability of being named is the same as Ke Lan.
Luo Xi doesn't like gambling, but sometimes, whether to participate in a gambling game does not depend on subjective will.
Fortunately, the final result was as Luo Xi expected. He used the [Soul-Calling Bell] crazily and killed the evil ghosts around him. At the same time, he borrowed the roll call mechanism of the 'scapegoat' and cleverly got rid of the use of [ The curse of Soul Seizing Bell is imposed on you.
Everything is according to his plan.
Looking around, it was an old house. Judging from the layout of the house and the hazy scene outside the window, Luo Xi knew that she was still in that building.
To be precise, he is in a certain room in the building.
"Although the ghost who replaced my identity endured the curse for me, the current situation is still not optimistic. My current identity is a 'ghost' and I cannot meet normal 'living people' during the day. If I want to change my identity, I can only rely on the current situation." He is still a memory collector of living people, so , Fatty Qian, Brother Mao and Yu Xiaoru are very important, but can they escape that disaster? "
After Luo Xi was replaced, he arrived at the location of the 'ghost', so he didn't. I don’t know what happened in Mao Taoist’s house after that.
It would be okay if it was just a ghost.
But Luo Xi was very sure that there were one or more memory collectors who could use cards hidden among the ghosts.
The door was destroyed by the other party using [Breakdown].
This was a part that was not anticipated and overlooked.
Luo Xi planned to get up. While it was still 'dark night', he wanted to go out immediately to check the situation.
First determine your location, and then go find Fatty Qian and the others.
But soon, Luo Xi found that he could not stand up.
"Did I win the lottery? I'm still disabled?" Luo Xi looked down speechlessly. He was sitting in a wheelchair with two empty legs.
He has no legs.
This was not in his plan, it was an unplanned situation.
Fortunately, there is a wheelchair, so you can move with two hands, but you don’t have to think about going up and down the stairs.
It’s okay to take the elevator.
Luo Xi immediately deduced the next plan.
At this time, there was other noise in the room.
Is it a whine? Someone is humming?
It came from the bedroom over there.
Luo Xi pushed the wheels of the wheelchair hard, but he was not good at it or skilled, so the process was very difficult. When he finally got there, he was stunned when he saw the situation in the room.
Inside is the bedroom, and there is another ghost lying on the bed in the bedroom.
But because the appearance would not change after being replaced, Luo Xi recognized at a glance that the paralyzed ghost was actually An Zhiyan.
The other party seemed to be able to move only his neck and head. When he turned his head and saw Luo Xi, he was also stunned.
"Woooo~" An Zhiyan made a sound from her mouth.
Luo Xi suddenly felt that he was not so unlucky. Compared with An Zhiyan, he was only disabled, but she was paralyzed, and she was also mute and unable to speak.
"You are really unlucky." Luo Xi rolled his wheelchair closer, looked at it, and then said.
An Zhiyan even cried.
She looked at Luo Xi, as if she had a thousand words to say, but in the end they just turned into two lines of tears, flowing down her cheeks. "Don't cry. I thought you were quite strong, but in the final analysis, you are just an ordinary person after all." After Luo Xi finished speaking, he also understood why An Zhiyan had not seen her appear for so long, and could only watch. It turns out that the ghost who replaced her is outside. It turns out that it's not that she doesn't want to, but that she can't do it.
To be fair, Luo Xi would be in the same situation. There was nothing he could do except lie in bed.
If I hadn't accidentally been replaced by another disabled ghost here, it is estimated that no one would have discovered An Zhiyan here.
Therefore, she cried not necessarily because of fear, but because she saw hope.
Originally Luo Xi didn't want to care about her, but he thought of something and said, "Come on, let's go out for a walk."
Luo Xi spent some time and finally brought the paralyzed An Zhi down. Yan was dragged to the wheelchair.
It is equivalent to sitting on oneself.
If something unexpected happens, she is a good shield.
This position is not comfortable, but there is no better option right now.
Furthermore, being a 'ghost' does not bring any special bonuses. For example, my strength is not as good as before, and I am tired after working too much.
Carrying An Zhiyan, Luo Xi pushed the wheelchair to the door, only to find that there was an old-fashioned lock hanging on the door.
After seeing this, Luo Xi felt helpless.
“This puzzle element is too deliberate. Whoever locks the door will lock the lock inside the door?”
Of course, there is another possibility. The door was originally locked by the paralyzed ghost, and it was just a means of locking the door.
It’s just that the person being replaced cannot obtain the memory of the ‘ghost’, so where the key is, you have to rely on your ability to find it.
If you can’t find it, you can’t get out.
But solving puzzles has always been Luo Xi's strength.
“The disabled ghost can only sit in a wheelchair and has limited mobility, so the key is most likely to be carried with him. Of course, it may also be placed somewhere within reach, such as the low door over there. Chest of drawers, cardboard box for storing pills.”
After not finding it on him, Luo Xi quickly found a key in the cardboard box where the pills were stored.
Go over to open the door and it opens smoothly.
At this moment, the bell rang, and the time turned from shadow to day.
Everything outside suddenly became foggy. Just like what Yu Xiaoru described before, the whole building was extremely silent. It seemed as if it had suddenly reached another dimension.
Luo Xi could feel a sense of danger.
Yu Xiaoru also said this. According to her, she was in a 'ghost' state at the time and felt more dangerous during the day than at night.
So she didn’t dare to run around during the day. Most of the time I hide in one place and never come out.
After actually turning into a 'ghost' here, Luo Xi realized that what Yu Xiaoru said was absolutely correct.
“The memory-collecting people who entered before, plus the memory-collecting people who entered later, number more than thirty. Most of them have had their identities replaced and turned into ‘ghosts’. However, except for Yu Xiaoru I was lucky enough to meet me at night, and no one else saw me at all. There is a possibility that if it is a 'ghost', then 'daytime' is more dangerous for them."
Luo. Xi's speculation was quickly verified.
After he arrived at the elevator, he found a body there.
To be precise, it’s a broken limb.
There were only leg bones that looked like they had been eaten, and even the feet wearing shoes.
And a broken arm.
The bones were also exposed after being chewed by something.
"Something is eating the Memory Pickers who have the identity of 'ghost'!" These broken limbs made Luo Xi come to this conclusion.
And there are no other 'ghosts' to be seen here. In other words, this is a space and dimension that can only be entered by memory collectors who have been replaced by ghosts.
Here, you will be hunted by some kind of existence.
This is the most dangerous death mechanism in "Ghost Building".
"So the best countermeasure is to hide, like Yu Xiaoru, to survive the daytime period, and then when night falls, find acquaintances and remove the 'ghost' identity." Luo Xi Now I completely understand how to play this scene.
It has to be said that without knowing the specific rules, the mortality rate in the scene is extremely high.
But fortunately, in the 'ghost' state, there seems to be an additional ability to perceive danger.
Some small disturbances can be detected immediately.
Just like now, this sense of danger tells Luo Xi all the time that he should go back immediately, lock the door, and hide instead of wandering in this dangerous corridor.
In the scene design of the day of confinement, the principle of 'fairness and justice' was followed, which can also be understood as the principle of 'equivalent exchange'.
The more dangerous it is, the more likely it is that there will be corresponding 'clues' and 'rewards'.
What's more, Luo Xi's current situation is very special.
He is a 'disabled ghost' who can only move around in a wheelchair, and he also carries a 'paralyzed ghost' who cannot move or speak from the neck down.
Even if we wait until dark, the possibility of going out and meeting Fatty Qian and the others is slim.
So we can’t wait.
Besides, just waiting was not Luo Xi's plan.
"Even if you encounter an unplanned situation, you must continue. It is more interesting if you have challenges!"
Luo Xi chuckled. At this moment, An, who was closest to him, Zhiyan's scalp felt numb when she heard the laughter.
She suddenly felt that it might be safer to stay in bed.
