Tang Yu was calmer than expected, with no fear or anger in his eyes.
He folded his hands on his chest, looked at Qiss and sneered: "Qiu Xin told me that the main mission of your camp is to eliminate all humans. What are your plans next? Kill me directly, or Transform me into a ghost?
"Since I can still leave the bamboo forest as a human being, it shows that you don't intend to turn me into a ghost, so there is only one choice left..."
“No, you are worth much more than you think. " Qisi shook his head and interrupted Tang Yu's words, "What you do next will be the key to determining whether Teacher Luo, the others, and Lin Ya can survive. "
Tang Yu raised his eyebrows: "Oh, you have said so, then I have to listen attentively. ”
Qiu Xin pinched the back of Tang Yu's neck expressionlessly, playing the role of the hostage dutifully.
Lin Chen stood beside Qisi with eyes open, his soul had been gone for a while.
The bamboo leaves are whirling like snow falling, spreading a shallow layer on the ground. On the other side was rotting flesh and bones.
Qisi stood on the blood mud, turned his head to look at Lin Chen, and said in a gentle voice: "Lin Ya, is the [top student's note] still there? Take it out."
Lin Chen followed the instructions blankly.
Qis ordered: "Use [Pilgrim's Prayer] on yourself, and then ask: 'What is the key clue to kill the tiger demon?'"
[Name: Pilgrim's Prayer]
[Type: Skill]
[Passive effect: If you have devout faith, you are luckier than ordinary people. You have a half chance of getting it right when you choose one of the four options. When you encounter a fatal crisis, there is also a chance of saving the day]< br>
[Active effect: Pray for any existence in the dungeon, and slightly improve its luck in the dungeon (can only be used once per dungeon)]
Milky white light loomed from under Lin Chen's clothes, and the white feathers gathered into huge wings, gently embracing him in them.
The effects of the two layers of increasing the luck value are superimposed on each other. The feathers break into dots of white light, floating around the thin body, gradually disappearing into the dark void.
Lin Chen held the crumpled note and asked clearly: "What is the key clue to killing the tiger demon?"
Juanxiu's black color slowly appeared on the note. Handwriting: [Everyone who is a ghost is afraid of the devil. 】
Qisi took the note and showed it to Tang Yu: "Although Lin Ya has become a ghost, he still has the task of killing the tiger monster. I believe that Teacher Luo and the others who have become Xi Yi The same is true. I’m afraid I’ll have to trouble you to play Wu Song and fight like a tiger.”
No one responded to Zeiss' joke.
Tang Yu frowned and said: "According to the meaning of this note, the tiger demon, as a ghost, will be afraid of '魙', so why isn't he afraid of you? Aren't you just '魙'?"< br>
Zis asked back: "Are you afraid of the people you kill?"
The clues are now completely clear.
The tiger demon cannot compete with human power, but it complies with the restraint rule of "ghosts are afraid of demons".
The nature of "祼鬼" is "筙", but because it died at the mouth of the tiger demon, it could not frighten the tiger demon.
If you want to kill the tiger demon, you need to find or create a "demon" other than the ghost.
"A ghost dies as a demon."
The answer is ready to come out.
Qisi looked into Tang Yu's eyes and showed a gentle smile: "I remember that the Jiuzhou Guild has always advocated the principle of sacrificing the few and saving the majority. I wonder if you, as a former member of Jiuzhou, Are you willing to die for us? ”
Tang Yu narrowed his eyes: "Are you kidnapping me morally?"
Zi Stan said "Yes" magnanimously, his smile not diminishing: "Of course you can refuse. After all, you have withdrawn from Kyushu, so-called The rules of the association can't restrain you, can they?"
His eyes lingered on Tang Yu's shoulders, and the implication was obvious.
Tang Yu laughed angrily: "If I refuse, you will just let your hatred pat my shoulder and kill me, right?"
Qisi maintained a kind smile: " So, what is your choice?”
"I understand. I had no choice from the beginning to the end." Tang Yu looked directly at Qisi and his voice calmed down, "Even if I go into the bamboo forest again and transform into a ghost, as long as the main mission still has 'kill the tiger monster' There is no way around the plan you proposed.
"And since everyone has become a ghost or a xiyi, no one can resist the tiger demon. Those of us who have the mission of 'killing the tiger demon'. Everyone will die. Since I will die no matter what, I might as well take a gamble. Even if I lose the bet, it will be considered a well-deserved death. "
He paused and changed the topic: "But I still have a question. How can you be sure that I will become a Xiao after death and not become a Xiyi like Teacher Luo and others? "
"Not sure. "Qisi raised the [Destiny Pocket Watch] on his left wrist with a sincere look in his eyes, "If you fail, I will activate the effect of the prop to rewind the time for one minute, and then try other plans. ”
Tang Yu nodded, recognizing Qisi’s words.
He was silent for a moment and asked: "I am committing suicide now. If I succeed in becoming a '魙', I will go back to the tiger's den and kill the tiger demon. Is that right?" A murderous night..." Qisi looked sideways in the direction of Di She and said in a negotiating tone, "How about we at least go back and ask Teacher Luo about their situation before deciding whether you want to take this risk?"
Tang Yu got goosebumps when he heard Qisi's hypocritical concern and couldn't help but shrugged.
Chou Xin, who was pinching the back of his neck, asked coldly: "Can I let go? My hands are very sore."
Tang Yu silently raised his middle finger: "..."
Qisi glanced at him with a smile: "Xiao Tang, you should have figured it out and won't struggle needlessly anymore, right? If so, just nod, and I will let your hatred go."
< br>Tang Yu: "Lin Wen, I will fuck your uncle..."
...
The group quietly returned to the residence through the back door and gathered in the room of Mr. and Mrs. Luo Haihua.
The puzzle copy is good for this. You only need to clarify the clues and know the specific plan to clear the level, and the subsequent development will become smoother.
The difficulty of survival will be sharply reduced, and the sense of fear and crisis will be greatly reduced. Then just finish the work smoothly and smoothly.
Qisi sat on the wooden bed next to the bedside table, picked up a ballpoint pen, and wrote two questions on the white paper:
[1. Your main mission is still "Escape from Yanghua Town" Or "Kill the Tiger Demon"? 】
【2. Have you made any new discoveries in another space? 】
He put the ballpoint pen back on the bedside table.
Two seconds later, the invisible being picked up the pen, manipulated the tip of the pen to put a check mark on the four words "Kill the Tiger Demon", and put a cross next to the second question.
The answer is clear.
Including Tang Yu, there are four people with the task of "killing the tiger demon".
Exchanging one person's risk for the completion of four people's tasks is a sure-fire deal no matter from which angle you look at it.
Tang Yu stood aside silently, looking down at the symbols that appeared on the page, and said calmly: "Now I am the only one who is in the human camp and in the status of 'ghost'. We only have one chance. ”
"It will succeed." Qisi's voice was as warm as the wind. "Even if you can't trust me, you can trust Lin Ya. He is a kind-hearted guy, and he also has a [Doctor Beak] identity card that can bring the dead back to life. He will definitely Save you." He turned around and gave Lin Chen a look. Lin Chen reflexively formed a black identity card on his fingertips and showed it to Tang Yu.
"Save me?" A sarcastic smile appeared on Tang Yu's lips, "You can't save me. Your main mission is to eliminate all humans. After killing the tiger demon, I am the last human being and can never be transformed into a ghost.
“If I don’t die, you will die. How can one person's life be compared to five people, so I must die. "
Qisi comforted him in a fake tone: "Maybe after you kill the tiger demon, we will be free and we won't need to do the main mission? ”
Qiu Xin pursed her lips and said that's not what you said last night.
"Only ghosts can live, humans must die... right?" Lin Chen's eyes widened as he wanted to understand the connection.
Tang Yu looked at him deeply and smiled miserably: "Yes, but I can accept this ending. In front of all mankind, my value is destined to be inferior to that of the identity card holder. It's inevitable."
He said a word, turned and walked out of the room.
Chou Xin followed him behind him like a ghost, never leaving, never forgetting to close the wooden door.
Only Qisi and Lin Chen were left in the room, as well as the invisible Luo Haihua couple.
Lin Chen crushed the phantom of the identity card, lowered his head, and stared at the ground.
Qisi was leaning on the wooden bed, flipping through the pages filled with writing.
In the silence, Lin Chen said abruptly: "Brother Qi, the reason why you don't announce your plan in front of everyone is not because you are afraid that the plan will be leaked, but because you want me to become a ghost and let Tang Yu go. Death, right?
"You know that one of Tang Yuzhong and I must transform into a human and sacrifice himself after killing the tiger demon. You didn’t want me to do this, and you were afraid that Tang Yu would refuse to cooperate, so you directly launched a plan to force Tang Yu into a situation where he had to sacrifice..."
"That's right, so are you planning to launch an attack on the enemy now?" Qisi put down the page and raised his eyelids to look at Lin Chen, "I told you on the first day that I would let you live until the end, and you didn't either Do you refuse?
“In camp games, if there is life, there must be death. Couldn’t you have thought of this at that time? ”
Lin Chen was speechless.
Since entering this dungeon, Qisi had indeed told him many times that he would let him live.
At first he only thought that was Relieved, there was also a different meaning later, guessing that Ziss might take some unethical measures, but he never stopped him verbally, but acquiesced with peace of mind...
Is he really ignorant? Or... just a cowardly selfish person?
Qisi straightened up and approached Lin Chen, with a questioning smile on his lips: "Lin Chen, ask yourself, don't you want to live? Or do you have a righteous heart and noble morals, and want to Do you want to sacrifice your life to Tang Yu?"
"I..."
Lin Chen spit out one word, and the subsequent words were swallowed in his throat.
Who wouldn’t want to live? He wants to live, he wants to live more than anyone else.
In the earliest days, he still had a lot of passion, and he would never be willing to kill others in order to survive for himself.
But as he witnessed tragic deaths in each dungeon, he began to be afraid and became reluctant to live.
Not only because he cares about his parents, but also because he knows that death is not the end of everything...
If Zeiss had told his interests at the beginning, he might have volunteered to make the only sacrifice. No matter how desperate it is, he is still willing to draw lots with Tang Yu to decide who will take the risk.
But now, Zis had arranged everything for him without any explanation, and he found that he could no longer say "unwilling" with confidence.
He silently and calmly accepted the result of "living", and despicably asked Tang Yu to sacrifice on his behalf...
Qisi looked at the pale Lin Chen, knowing that the latter was induced by his words. Success falls into a moral dilemma of self-blame and shame.
He sighed quietly and pretended to be relaxed and comforted: "Lin Chen, in fact, you don't have to think so much. In the end, I chose to let you live only out of my own interests.< br>
“Everyone is self-interested, and so am I. Although I hate many bad human natures, they are often unavoidable, and I believe you are too.
“Self-interest and survival are things written into biological instincts and are not shameful.”
Since childhood, Ziss has never been able to understand why human beings have illusory emotional needs in addition to efficiency and practical benefits.
After becoming the [Immortal], the emotional resonance with the world that he had finally established fell apart, and he was even more unable to touch those nuanced feelings.
Although he can still rely on his past experience and accumulated knowledge to analyze the psychology and thoughts of others and give appropriate emotional value, it is undoubtedly too energy-consuming.
Considering that Lin Chen still needs to exist for a long time, Qisi felt that instead of spending all his energy and energy playing house games with him, it would be better to make some things clear as soon as possible.
It is best to achieve complicity through an immoral act, drag him into the mire of sin, and dye him into a black color.
At this moment, the young man in red grinned with a ghostly smile: "Lin Chen, you are my president, and you and I have a tacit understanding of each other. If you die suddenly, it will be very troublesome for me to find someone who can replace you. .
“I said that I am not a good person, I can even be considered a scumbag, and I have killed many people. In order to avoid as much trouble as possible, it is in line with my code of conduct to let you live and let others die. ”
Hearing this, Lin Chen’s already pale face became even paler.
He recalled everything he had gotten along with Qisi. From beginning to end, everything the young man did was based on his Intention.
In Rose Manor, after he refused to drag others into trouble, Zeiss looked for other ways to break the situation.
In the Frog Hospital, he would rather die than be controlled by the puppet master, so Zis took the risk and signed a soul contract with him.
When he arrived at the Demon dungeon, he wanted to live, so Chiss let him live...
In the end, Chiss was always the same person, and what he had changed was himself.
I will not kill Boren, Boren will die because of me. As the biggest beneficiary, how could he have the face to complain about Qiss?
It is difficult for people to accept their own imperfections, but they have to accept all the negative things.
Lin Chen squatted down dejectedly, unable to say a word.
Qisi sighed softly, picked up the pen and wrote something on the page.
After a while, he handed the newly written page to Lin Chen and said, "Look."
Lin Chen raised his eyes and saw a question written on the page. :
[Teacher Luo, is your current camp a "ghost"? 】
The answer is a shaky hook.
Qisi dropped the page, stood up, and looked down at Lin Chen on the ground: "There were three ghosts in total at the beginning. One of them, Teacher Luo, was a ghost.
< br>"Perhaps in order to advance and retreat together and share hardships, they somehow turned another person into a ghost. Only in this way can we explain why they turned into Xiyi on the first night.
"'Ghosts die as 筙, and 筙 dies as Xiyi'. They are all '筙', as the '筙' of ghosts, that's why they become Xiyi after being burned by fire - you Can you understand? "
Lin Chen raised his head blankly and looked at Qisi.
Qisi's smile was both pity and teasing: "They concealed this and confessed it at this moment as one of the bargaining chips to force Tang Yu to take risks.
"In the face of the interests of the group, individual sacrifices are insignificant. This is the team, this is the human race.
"All people are selfish." (End of Chapter)
