If you want to see through a person in the world of ghost stories, you only need to guess his rules.
This is what the Pope summed up based on the experience of the last weird talk.
In addition, I have experience in playing weird roles.
The Pope studied with a weird crew for more than half an hour this time, and learned all the rules of the weird crew.
Whenever he encounters someone who needs to give way, or where he cannot enter, he knows clearly, even more clearly than the real weird crew.
As long as you learn this, you can be as skillful as Zhang Yangqing.
Many viewers felt that the Pope was too stable this time.
Doesn’t the Pope have any tricks in his mind?
That’s not necessarily the case. The Pope’s strength in the late stage of the last ghost talk is still very strong, and there are more play styles to choose from. If something goes wrong, Zhang Yangqing will be the one to take care of it.
This time he didn't have any strength, and he was surrounded by newbies who were newer than him. Even if his mind was filled with flashy tricks, he could only choose to be steady.
After analyzing the rules, Pope and teammate Ryan jumped off the salvage boat and continued to blend into the sunken cruise ship.
With the experience of diving last time, they were more comfortable this time.
From the outside, the cruise ship only has 9 floors.
The chosen ones can only enter the cruise ship through the 1st and 9th floors.
The first small detail that the Pope analyzed is that there are only 7 floors inside, and the extra floors are very dangerous. He has to find a way to use identifiable things to determine whether he has entered the wrong floor.
Since there were two entrances, Pope and Ryan split up and returned to the salvage ship more than an hour later.
After all, in this weird area, even if they have communication equipment, they can't communicate directly.
This is one of the biggest difficulties in this ghost story.
Underwater operations are not as simple as on land.
Ryan chose the top floor, so the Pope naturally entered from the first floor.
The most critical point in infiltrating a sunken cruise ship is not to attract attention on the cruise ship.
The first floor is relatively simple, the main building is a dance hall.
When the Pope came here, he looked at it carefully for a while.
In the ballroom, there is no noise and dust as there should be on land, only the ripples of the sea water are spreading continuously.
The light here becomes soft and mysterious, and countless luminous fishes shuttle between them. They are either silvery-white like the moon, or blue like the night, emitting colorful light, adding a touch of color to this undersea feast. Divided into dreamy and weird.
In this interplay of light and shadow, several pairs of strange tourists are dancing to the invisible melody.
Their movements appear extremely light and agile in the water, as if they have escaped the constraints of gravity. Every turn and every step is like an underwater elf, smooth and elegant.
Seeing the colorful ‘lights’ gave the audience the feeling of watching an elderly disco.
After all, the Pope is also old, and everyone can understand why he is watching here.
But the Pope’s way of thinking is not that simple. He is looking for ‘others’.
This has to mention another skill that Zhang Yangqing taught. If among a group of people, one person looks different from the others, then this person will probably have "special information."
Knowing that this cruise ship has pitfalls, it is easy to run into problems if you try it yourself, so why not find a ‘local’.
The Pope observed for a long time and found a strange lady with handicapped legs and feet nearby who was secretly distressed.
She seemed to need help, so the Pope gracefully walked over.
Because it was in the water, the Pope couldn't speak, so he used body language to ask the weird lady if she needed his help.
This will trigger the task.
The weird lady pointed at her wrist. There was nothing on her wrist, only a strangulation mark.
The Pope immediately understood that the thing she was wearing was lost and she needed to find it by herself.
The rules don’t say that you will be punished if you fail the task, so it should be no problem to agree directly.
After the Pope agreed, he carefully looked at the marks on his hand, which looked like a watch.
But the problem is, this cruise ship is so big, how should I find it? Are there no tips?
He asked Ms. Weird if she knew where the watch was lost. The weird lady made a thinking face, indicating that she should be in the ballroom.
Now the Pope has an idea.
Because he thought of a previous rule, in the deep sea, only what you see when you look down is real.
There is no need for the weird lady to lie to herself, then this watch should be in the ballroom.
Maybe it’s on the ceiling, and other people are looking up at the ceiling, so they can’t find it.
Thinking of this, the Pope began to look for clues in the ballroom backwards.
The search lasted 19 minutes. He first carefully observed everyone in the ballroom, and used his identity as a crew member to investigate suspicious persons.
It is worth mentioning that the people here are very cooperative with his investigation and behave like gentlemen.
Since he was not from here, the Pope searched the ceiling of the ballroom but could not find the watch.
I just saw some pearl bracelets and the like, and he took them, but the weird lady said they were not hers.
This was the first time since the Pope entered the strange story that he was at a loss. He felt as if he had missed some details.
"It seems that Zhang Tianshi didn't teach me how to do it here."
The Pope has been thinking about what Zhang Yangqing taught him in the last ghost talk, and he complained like this because he didn't expect the solution.
In fact, Zhang Yangqing can't be blamed for this. This didn't happen last time.
And if Zhang Yangqing knows, Zhang Yangqing will definitely say: Don’t say that I taught you in the future, I can’t afford to embarrass this person.
I’ve told you how to think, but you still only know how to use formulas, right?
The Pope overlooked a very important detail here, and Bativa, the chosen one from the White Elephant Kingdom next door, thought of it.
Because this is a dance hall, weird tourists come here to dance.
The weird lady's leg was injured, which means she was supposed to dance just now, so she must have had a dance partner.
This can be judged from the fact that all the people dancing are in pairs.
And this dance partner is not with her now. If you ask carefully, you can also know that the strange lady's dance partner is not in the dance hall, so this dance partner is very suspicious.
The weird lady said that the watch was lost here, but it does not mean that the person who took the watch was also in the ballroom.
Then there will be two methods here.
The first way is to ask the weird lady what her dance partner looks like.
Then keep searching on this floor until you find it.
Here you can also seek help from other crew members.
The watch is indeed on the body of the strange lady's dance partner.
Complete the mission and you will receive an invitation from the weird lady, leading directly to the 7th floor.
The second method requires a certain amount of observation.
This weird lady is dressed better than other weird tourists, which shows that her status may not be low.
You can use the search for your missing dance partner as an excuse to ask the weird lady to take you to other floors to find your dance partner, so that you can reach the correct 7th floor.
Although I still can't find a dance partner, there is no penalty for failure. I have reached the 7th floor, so what else is there to do?
There are still differences between the two methods. The first method requires a lot of time, but you will get help from the weird lady on the 7th floor.
The second method is simply to save time.
This is a faster clue to find the 7th floor. Not every chosen one can find this task.
If you don’t find this mission, you need to explore slowly by yourself.
The pit where the cruise ship sank is located on the 'sign' on each floor.
This is also the way the Pope came to the 7th floor.
