Chapter 324 Guidance of the Dead
“Someone fell into the water!” Fatty Qian whispered.
Obviously, other memory collectors should have come to this scene, and then some of them fell into the "Suicide Lake" trick and threw themselves into the lake.
A classic way to die in Shuhai Park.
According to the results of An Zhiyan’s previous investigation, if you look at the lake, you will see many incredible projections on the mirror-like lake. People with weak willpower and timid people will definitely Will be tricked.
Then something went wrong and he jumped into the lake.
Once you fall into the water, you are basically hopeless.
Because there is a ghost in the lake!
The person who fell into the water will be dragged to the bottom of the lake immediately.
There was indeed chaos over there.
"Boy, what's going on?"
"Hurry up and save people."
"Don't move, there's something wrong with this lake, step back, step back."
"What should I do with my second brother? He didn't seem to struggle and just sank."
"Damn, something dragged my second brother down. He's hopeless. Give it to me." Stay back, away from the lake.”
There were noises, cries, footsteps, and chaos, but these people obviously followed the order of a leader and stayed away from the Suicide Lake.
Soon, the sound faded away, and the waves on the lake had long since returned to calm.
It becomes like a mirror again.
Not even the falling rain seems to be able to break this weird and abnormal silence.
Luo Xi and the others did not make any move.
Save people?
No, that makes no sense.
And the other memory collectors in the same scene spend most of their time in a jealous and hostile relationship with each other.
Trust cannot be easily established, so the best way to deal with it is to have no contact with each other.
"A very strange thing is that this scene does not seem to have a particularly clear purpose, that is, the gameplay and the specific way to clear the level." An Zhiyan said at this time.
Fatty Qian coughed slightly and said hurriedly: "Ke Lan and the others have also said this, but it is really strange, and Ke Lan and Brother Mao, who have been here twice, don't know either. They can only say This place has a high degree of freedom, but it does not restrict the memory collectors from leaving the original route. As for the way to clear the level, you may need to slowly explore it, or it may be that there is no so-called normal way to clear the level here. If you survive, you will get the benefits. "
An Zhiyan also knows this.
Sometimes, having requirements and rules is a good thing, but without requirements and rules and having too much freedom, it is a bad thing.
Next to her, Lin Qiqi looked at Luo Xi. Luo Xi looked at the 'curse' that had touched his body with a playful expression.
He looked very carefully, from head to toe, even fingernails and the terrifying facial features hidden in the black hair, the empty eye sockets, the corners of the mouth that were split to the ears, and the mouth full of fangs.
"Dolphin Bird's clothes. Old women's clothing brand, L size. Diamond ring and slightly curly hair." Luo Xi muttered: "This is a person who died in the scene, maybe a memory collector. But here It is not an 'initial scene', that is to say, the Shiyi people here will not be novices, and those who dare to come here will There is more or less [memory] on the planet. Even after death, it will disappear and then be reborn on the next cycle day. But this curse is clearly an exception. Of course, it may not be an exception, but the people who died here will Leave a copy?”
“Luo Xi, what are you looking at?” Lin Qiqi asked in a low voice.
"Grudge!" Luo Xi did not hide it, and even described it to Lin Qiqi.
The latter's face was solemn: "But, I can't see."
It's normal for most people not to see, but it's not normal for Lin Qiqi not to be able to see.
Because she is a [soul-peeper].
Even the soul peepers cannot see it, which means it is not a soul.
This is very interesting.
“So the conclusion is that the curse is not a soul, or even a ghost, it is just something that looks like a ghost.”
“It seems so, Luo Xi, what should I do? Help you?”
"Maybe there's nothing I can do to help, but this curse won't affect me for the time being. Just pretend it doesn't exist!" Luo Xi's attitude towards the curse is like treating a chronic terminal illness, but terminal illness only occurs when it actually occurs. It will lead to death. Before that, there will be no impact. In this case, why should you care?
"Fat Qian."
"Luo Ju, your orders." Fatty Qian came over. He looked around, probably wondering whether the curse was on the left or on the left. right.
"Where did Ke Lan and Mao Ge die before? Have they ever said it."
"Yes, they have mentioned it."
"Take me there and go to the nearest one."
"Okay, the nearest dangerous point is the Crooked Neck Tree. You can see it soon if you follow the path next to Suicide Lake. "
Although Fatty Qian has never been here, Ke Lan and Brother Mao shared their experiences here with him, so after finding some obvious reference objects, he found the place in a short time.
A big tree with a crooked neck in the forest.
Although the trees all look the same, the ones that are truly suitable for hanging must be those with thick branches that grow horizontally to the left and right.
Moreover, it cannot be too high from the ground.
Otherwise you won’t be able to go up.
Even if you throw the rope, you can't reach it. The crooked-necked tree in front of us was simply prepared for those who would hang themselves.
Thick tree trunks grow horizontally, just over three meters above the ground. The surroundings are very considerate. There are many easy-to-move stones. They are piled up and the hanging ropes are wrapped around them. Tie a buckle on the tree trunk, step on the rocks, put it around your neck, and kick it off with your feet.
Perfect!
No, there is a corpse hanging above it now.
The rain is still falling and there is no wind.
The corpse was motionless, and bloody rain flowed down the corpse and dripped.
"It should have been not long after he was hanged." An Zhiyan walked over and observed it, and even pinched the body to check the degree of stiffness.
"He is a memory collector. He has a card ring, but the body has not disappeared. However, the card ring cannot be removed. It should be protected by the rules." Then something incredible happened. The hanging body suddenly fell down. , and then dissipated at an extremely fast speed.
Immediately afterwards, An Zhiyan had a strange expression and her eyes were fixed on the position where the body had fallen, as if she had seen something interesting.
"You can't see it, right?" An Zhiyan said suddenly.
Luo Xi and Lin Qiqi walked over, and when Fatty Qian heard this sentence, he felt the hairs all over his body stand up.
The latest chapter of this novel was first published on 6@9书#, please go to 69书吧 to read it!
"Another curse? So, this thing can be contagious. After killing a memory collector, if someone touches the body of the suicide, they will be entangled in the curse." An Zhiyan said at this time did an analysis.
It is certain that from her perspective, she can see the corpse just now, and even the corpse has stood up and walked towards her.
What a terrifying picture.
But she is not afraid at all. Her tone of voice, expression and eyes can completely be seen as another Luo Xi.
"Maybe, it's not touching that causes the curse to be contagious." Luo Xi added.
It's a correction.
Because just touching the corpse of a suicide will contaminate the curse on the other person. It is impossible that Ke Lan, who has been here twice before, did not tell Fatty Qian about the details that can be detected so easily.
Fatty Qian indeed never mentioned this matter.
"Luo Ju, I really don't know. Ke Lan didn't say it, nor did Brother Mao, Wu Rui or Guo Zening." Fatty Qian reacted and hurriedly assured.
“So, what is the mechanism of infection?”
"It may be sequential, it may be that you have met certain conditions, or it may be time." After Luo Xi finished speaking, he sighed.
The current situation is different from his previous expectation.
He originally thought that if he was contaminated with one curse, he might be able to see other curses, but that was not actually the case.
Only those who are contaminated by the curse can see the corresponding curse.
"Luo Ju, there is a shrine over there, and the shrine here will definitely cast a curse. The person who is cursed will return here to hang himself after a period of time. For the first time, Wu Rui is He died here. She told me this personally. After she burned the incense, she opened the shrine and saw a terrifying ghost, who jumped at her. When she came up, she was so frightened that she couldn't get away at all. After a while, she didn't know anything. From the perspective of Ke Lan and Mao Ge, Wu Rui ran away just like Zhong Xie. They went to chase her, but they didn't. I arrived and lost track of him. I returned here about an hour later and found Wu Rui hanging from the top.”
Fatty Qian looked around at this time, and sure enough, he found a shrine next to the Crooked Neck Tree.
It is right next to the root of the tree. If you look closely, you can see that there are three sticks of incense on it that have not completely burned out. In all likelihood, they were the ones that the hanged man just hung.
Luo Xi went over and squatted down to observe carefully.
Fatty Qian was afraid that Luo Xi would go directly to the incense.
Because this shrine has been determined to be 100% the 'Grudge Shrine'.
"Come and offer incense." Luo Xi said to An Zhiyan at this time.
The latter did not hesitate and lit the incense directly. He followed Luo Xi's previous posture of putting incense, shaking one stick of incense and extinguishing it with his left hand.
The shrine opens.
Sure enough, it looked like a black hole inside, filled with black air.
There is no doubt that it is the Grudge Shrine.
It's just that except for the incense burner, no one else can see the 'curse'.
"Describe it." Luo Xi looked at An Zhiyan and said.
The latter nodded: "A middle-aged man, looking a little fierce, wearing an old suit, a red tie, no eyeballs, a broken neck, head tilted. Wait a minute, they are fighting."< br>
What Fatty Qian heard was not only frightening, but also baffled.
Who started the fight?
He wanted to ask, but didn't dare.
Luo Xi and Lin Qiqi seemed to understand, and the former asked directly: "Who won?"
"The suit's curse is stronger. At this time, it is devouring the previous one. That hanged ghost"
"What is your judgment?"
"If If two curses are entangled at the same time, they will attack each other, and one of them will devour the other, and the winning curse seems to be more powerful after being swallowed." An Zhiyan's eyes lit up: "Maybe You can delay the triggering of suicide by contaminating new curses!”
"Maybe it's not delaying the triggering of suicide, but accelerating it," Luo Xi said at this time, and then continued to ask: "Did they do any other weird behavior before this?"
An Zhiyan was stunned for a moment. She lowered her head and recalled it, and her eyes lit up.
"Yes, they seemed to be saying something, but only their mouths moved and there was no sound. I recalled it. Judging from the shape of their mouths, they were saying 'It's down there!'"
