Chapter 67: Have fun (one more)
Although Su Qingxing was "selected" as an ingredient, he finally got a "probation" with the help of the old ghost in the attic. In the words of the old ghost, as long as Su Qingxing does not leave his side, he will not be in danger for the time being.
Su Qingxing just took this opportunity to observe the ghosts stationed in this trial world and see why these ghosts give cinnabar such a headache.
The old ghost's legs and feet are really inconvenient, but the manager Hao prepared a wheelchair at the door. When the old ghost sits in the wheelchair, Su Qingxing can push him all the way forward .
The hotel seems to have been opened into two spaces from the very beginning, one is the space where ghosts can walk freely, and the other is the space where the testers are.
So when Su Qingxing pushed the wheelchair and accompanies the old man along the slightly twisted road in space, he could see Baimao and the others walking on the other side of the transparent wall.
But even if the wall was transparent in front of Su Qingxing, Bai Mao and the others couldn't see Su Qingxing on the other side of the wall.
This is a privilege on the ghost side.
"Go this way." After Su Qingxing pushed for a while, the old man pointed in a certain direction, "That's where my old friends rest."
Su Qingxing went in the direction pointed by the old man, the passages along the road twisted strangely, it really looked like a different space from the outside world.
After walking for a while, Su Qingxing saw a door. And the door opened automatically as Su Qingxing approached, revealing the brightly lit hall inside.
Except for the slightly distorted space, this hall looks exactly the same as the one Su Qingxing and the others have been to, but the hall Su Qingxing and the others have seen has never seen so many ghosts...
The front desk of the hotel I saw when I first came to this world is honestly staying at the front desk, no matter how noisy the other ghosts in the hall are, the front desk is standing there motionless, watching Looks very professional.
The ghosts that I saw in the restaurant before are gathered in this hall now, no longer staring straight at a certain direction or a person like in the restaurant, but like when they were alive Just like chatting with each other.
Some of the ghosts are very identifiable, some are wearing logistics service uniforms, some are directly wearing chef hats, and some are wearing bartender clothes, they all look like this hotel The original employee was the culprit who set the fire and the hotel was buried in the fire.
But what surprised Su Qingxing was that there were some other people in this hall, not to mention the red-clothed ghost in the elevator, there were many others that didn't look like a hotel, but looked like The ghosts who are hotel guests also stay here to chat and laugh with the hotel staff.
Seeing such a scene, Su Qingxing felt a little strange, because according to the information he knew, when the hotel staff set fire in the hotel, the last guests of these hotels were still sleeping in their rooms, He was unable to escape from the hotel until the end, and died extremely innocently in the hotel.
In other words, these guests and employees should be enemies of each other, how can they chat happily together?
No!
Su Qingxing suddenly found a blind spot. If these dead guests are really innocent, why would they all follow the staff to the underworld?
These ghosts have been in the underworld for at least fifty years. At that time, the requirements of the underworld for the souls of the dead did not seem to be as "harsh" as they are now, and it is not like now that a little black history is dragged into the underworld.
In other words, the guests of these hotels must have done something that left them with sin.
"The old man in the chef's hat was the first to say hello.
"It's alright, it's just that I'm bored recently, so I'm just raising a new person to play with. I usually take a walk with me, it's a companion." The old ghost laughed and asked Su Qingxing to take care of himself. Push close to that cook.
Maybe Su Qingxing was really regarded as a decoration, so when Su Qingxing stood there, no one paid attention to him, and they all said something to themselves that they thought Su Qingxing could not understand.
"The testers who came this time are quite interesting. Sometimes I really want to leave one or two of them to accompany us to continue to relieve the boredom."
"You give up, the only people who can keep people behind are the guides of the underworld." Wearing a waiter costume was a man with purple hair, and his mouth was painted with the same color. Lip gloss, it seems that it is non-mainstream in the same way as Piza.
"And we are a famous three-no-go zone here. We haven't cleared the customs for decades, and we haven't seen guides for decades. In the end, only us old people stay here. It's just a guy." The non-mainstream waiter scoffed.
"Do you think we won't provoke people in ghost towns if we haven't let the testers clear the customs for decades?" The person wearing logistics clothes on the side looked a little honest and honest, "There are some I think It's pretty good, just like this kid chosen by the old man, isn't it pretty good?"
"What if you clear the customs?" Manager Hao suddenly appeared from behind, "After clearing the customs from us, they may enter the next more terrifying world, and continue this despairing and infinite Endless trials. Rather than that, let them stop here."
"But I remember you, manager, who said that after these trialists are eliminated, they will continue to test. Isn't that no difference?"
"There is still a difference." Sitting next to them seemed to be a hotel guest, who was holding a laptop that would definitely not have Internet access, sitting beside them constantly bang bang bang.
"If these testers pass the customs, they will continue along the current path. Then one day, they will encounter three different futures, one is in a certain test One is to be eliminated in the refining world, one is to be thrown into the lava **** after meeting the guide, and the last is to be selected by the guide to be brought into the ghost town."
"But if the testers are eliminated, then they will be emptied of all memory like the data in the computer, and put into another ghost town to continue the test." The computer man stopped tapping Keyboard movements, "When they start the trial again, they won't remember all their experiences in the trial, they will only feel that it has just begun."
"Why do you do such a hassle?"
"It may be a simple computer algorithm." The computer man closed the computer, "When the tester is eliminated, this algorithm determines that the tester is not suitable for the current route, So it started to arrange another route for him. According to this algorithm, maybe the trial will one day meet a guide in a ghost town, and then start to choose between going to **** and entering the ghost town."
"But what if you never meet a guide?"
Computer man: "Then this circular algorithm will continue forever and ever, and all the testers will always be like data wandering in various test spaces, even if they wait ten or twenty years Even for hundreds of years, they are waiting for the moment to meet the guide."
"Suddenly I think we are quite lucky." The logistics person said with special emotion, "But I didn't expect you to know so much."
"It's just that I got some words out of the builder's mouth when I was in the ghost town." The computer man smiled, "That kid is still too tender."
"The most important thing is that even if you meet the guides of the underworld, the ending may not be good." Manager Hao interrupted and said, "Now the virtues of those guides in the underworld are you guys. We've all seen it before, we met a good man, and as long as we saw the live ones, we'd take them back to the ghost town."
"However, some guides only like fierce and evil ghosts who are eager to win and do evil, and even some guides like to throw those who dare not resist and do not like to fight into hell... The trial based on the subjective assumptions of the guide is really absurd and ridiculous." Manager Hao narrowed his eyes behind his glasses, "If this continues, the souls will not be able to settle down after death, and all the ghost towns are full of vicious garbage, so it's better to just stay like this. In our small world, we are free and happy."
The dazed logistics staff said, "What you are saying is so profound that it almost confuses the children I brought."
Su Qingxing smiled a little confusedly, but he understood very well.
He didn't expect that the testers in these hotels would see things so thoroughly.
Most of the ghosts that Su Qingxing met in the ghost towns were good, and most of them were relatively junior. child.
The ghosts standing in front of Su Qingxing can clearly see that they have deep qualifications and even have their own understanding of ghost towns.
For these ghosts, staying in this trial space is not a form of punishment and isolation, but the best choice for them.
What the computer man and Manager Hao said were correct. The trialists who didn't have time to see the guide could only keep wandering in the data sea of the ghost town.
A large part of the guides in the underworld in thousands of ghost towns are lazy and lazy, and a large part of them are paranoid and eccentric.
It is actually a very unreliable thing for them to be the judges of the trialists. But the underworld is not heaven, and most of the guides are monsters rather than angels, and they cannot empathize with the dead human souls.
Although the entrance to the underworld has become a little strange now, people who entered the ghost town before this time have obvious sins.
It's like the bangs met on the ghost bus by Su Qingxing dragged into the white valley of the lava **** in the ghost campus. One of them killed a teammate on the way to the mountain, and the other threw acid on innocent women because their courtship failed.
Compared to the pain of the eighteenth **** in the legend of the human world, constantly wandering in the trial space does not seem to be a more painful thing.
But now, judging from the testers that Su Qingxing has come into contact with, the souls entering the underworld are becoming more and more strange, and the karma carried by them is getting lighter and lighter. Su Qingxing brings There are more and more people in ghost towns.
What's going on here?
There are more and more innocent dead souls, the ghost town meeting once every two hundred years is near, the powerful death **** suddenly hides in the small world of trials...
All of this information seems to Su Qingxing like a prelude to a storm.
"Although they know a lot, they have been hiding here for decades after all, and they don't know about many changes that have taken place in the underworld. It is inevitable that they will sit and watch the sky by discussing them here."
The voice belonging to the **** of death suddenly entered Su Qingxing's ears.
But when Su Qingxing looked around, he couldn't find a figure that belonged to the **** of death or the little milk dog.
The ghosts around didn't seem to hear what Death said just now, and they were still chatting to themselves.
"Relax, only you can hear my voice, no need to speak." The voice of death came again.
"Things in the underworld are very complicated, and you must have noticed some small changes in it. But before things are completely clear, you just need to do your own work and be a guide things to do."
"At least until you have a perfect strategy and sufficient strength, you must not initiate changes easily. The ghost town of No. 666 is too small to do anything with the power of a ghost town. "
After the **** of death said this, he never made a sound. But Su Qingxing remembered a word that the **** of death said—
"Change!"
The so-called change is naturally to change one thing.
Change usually refers to the abolition of an old system and the establishment of a new system.
Su Qingxing, who is essentially a monster, never thought of launching a change in the ghost town, and also knows the insignificance of the ghost town No. 666, so I don't know why the **** of death suddenly mentioned this matter.
Even if it really wants to change, at least someone has to know what the change should look like, right?
Su Qingxing gave a wry smile and didn't think about it again.
"Have all the testers returned to the room?" Manager Hao suddenly asked, "Are you all ready? It's time for the night game again."
Night games?
Just when Su Qingxing was a little puzzled, the big screen in the hotel lobby that was originally playing movies and advertisements suddenly restarted, and then an ordinary hotel room appeared on the big screen.
There was another person on the bed in the room, the thin man who said he was proficient in metaphysics.
Maybe it was a real drug addiction, so this person who was still struggling before was struggling and rolling on the bed.
The excellent acoustics in the hotel lobby made everyone hear the groaning of the addict in the picture.
The next second, the female ghost in red disappeared directly from the hall, and the computer man also turned on the computer and continued to tap the keyboard.
Immediately afterwards, the picture on the big screen began to change.
The lights in the hotel room suddenly turned off, and the screen instantly became pitch black.
I don't know which brand of audio equipment the hotel uses, Su Qingxing could even hear the thin man's heavy breathing.
"It's on!"
The moment the computer man pressed enter, the TV that was originally turned off in the room suddenly turned on, illuminating the dark room a little, and also let Su Qingxing see the thin man curling up in fear on the bed.
The angle of the picture on the big screen began to move, and then Su Qingxing saw the hotel elevator appear on the TV, and the red-clothed female ghost standing at the elevator door.
"Ahhhh!" The skinny man began to scream.
And the female ghost in red in the TV seemed to hear a scream, she turned her head and stared at the addict outside the TV, and then directly extended the ghost's claws out of the TV...
"There's a ghost! Help!" The addict shouted and rolled down from the bed, scrambling to the door of the room.
But no matter how the addict opened the door, the door lock of the room did not respond and could not be opened at all.
"Help!" The addict slammed on the door desperately, hoping that other people nearby would notice his help.
Behind the addict, the ghost in red is about to crawl out of the TV!
"Ahhhh!"
"Hahahaha!" Compared to the fear of the addict on the screen, the hall was full of cheers, as if watching a very funny horror movie.
These ghosts seem to have fun.
"Son, how about letting you try it next time?" The old man in the wheelchair also looked very happy, "It must surprise them!"
