Chapter 31: Anti-kill
Those manuscripts were taken out by Shen Qingcheng in his pocket, Shen Qingcheng only remembered the purpose of going to the low-rise building, didn't I go to find someone who was peeking at me?
Also, the little girl disappeared in the direction of the low-rise building, but she didn't see it.
He tutted his lips in confusion, "Could that skinless man be the fourth NPC?"
Lu Qi thought about the words "skinless and faceless" and replied, "No, the fourth NPC is a young man."
Seeing Shen Qingcheng's puzzled eyes, Lu Qi said, "All four NPCs appeared before you arrived at the castle."
No wonder, it seems that you can't just run away in the future, and you will miss key information if you get lost.
He spreads the manuscript.
The master's manuscript was messy with notes that recorded many of his occasional flashes of inspiration. He seemed to be preparing a new book, and the notes mentioned basic content such as background and character settings.
He writes thriller novels, so he has to describe some real or fake "ghosts" to create a terrifying atmosphere. Several incoherent words caught the attention of Shen Qingcheng and Lu Qi.
faceless, skinned, blood, axe.
Isn't this the red ghost that the host saw? The red ghost was actually set by the master himself!
"The game mechanism of this dungeon is to turn the novel into reality?" Shen Qingcheng raised his point, and then overthrew himself.
"No, no, it's too arbitrary. In this case, you can only face the ghost. How did the four NPCs come from? And the setting is an axe, and what we see is a long hook."
"Look at this." Lu Qi pressed his index finger under a row of words.
It said: In order to pursue authenticity, I decided to buy a few animals to try.
Animals!
Something flashed in his mind, but it flashed too fast Shen Qingcheng didn't catch it, he was so anxious that he grabbed the man's forearm and shook it vigorously, "That, that is, the one on the wall. Draw! That's right!"
There was a smile in Lu Qi's eyes, "Well, that's right."
Shen Qingcheng was anxious, "No, I still haven't figured it out, you give me a good idea."
Lu Qi asked, "Have you ever seen an animal skinned?"
Shen Qingcheng shook his head.
Lu Qi: "To skin the animal, in order to ensure the integrity of the fur, a long hook is first hooked into the animal's mouth to hang it."
Shen Qingcheng: "Long hook?"
Lu Qi: "The male owner should have bought a lot of animals to skin them for the realism of the novel, so the appearance of skinned people and long hooks is very reasonable."
What is this called? Feng shui turns, but as a hunter, he is killed by his prey.
Shen Qingcheng: "The red ghost is the man who was skinned by his prey."
Lu Qi: "No, it's the mistress."
Shen Qingcheng looked over.
Lu Qi paused and said, "Have a chest."
Shen Qingcheng squinted at him, then suddenly curved his lips and smiled, "Hey, Big Brother Lu is really careful"
Lu Qi pursed her lips, and after a while, she narrowed her eyes and said, "Professional habits."
The two came back after eating outside at night. When they returned to the castle, the players in the lobby had not dispersed after eating. The little girl was not there. .
He Zheng and Gao Shulin sat at the two ends of the long table respectively, occasionally looking at each other, He Zheng nodded gently, while Gao Shulin turned his eyes away without seeing it.
Pretend to be a real look, Shen Qingcheng's teeth are itchy.
He was not surprised that the two of them were able to escape from the red ghost, anyway, they were able to win over a valet of followers, there must be some way to save their lives.
However it seems to be hurt.
Shen Qingcheng noticed what was meant by the bandage on his arm and his pale face, thoughtfully.
"Don't worry, it's all minor injuries," He Shi said with a smile when he found Shen Meiren's eyes, "I was not lucky enough to encounter a ghost in the afternoon, and I got a little injury from fighting with it."
"You're amazing!"
"Yes, that ghost is the faceless ghost who killed Xiaoliu and Wei Tian!"
Shen Qingcheng, who knows the truth: ...why don't you tell me when you encountered a ghost?
He strongly doubted that among the remaining players, what is the meaning and Gao Shulin, listening to this rhythm.
Seeing that he did not speak, what does it mean to show a bit of worry in his expression, "How are you and Lu Qi? Didn't you encounter any danger this afternoon?"
Shen Qingcheng was about to speak.
Lu Qi: "No."
What does it mean that there are some surprises? Lu Qi will take the initiative to speak. In his impression, the other party has always been quite taciturn. He glanced at Shen Meiren, looked back and asked: "What's the gain? We found some clues in the afternoon. ."
Lu Qi: "A few paintings."
He didn't mention the manuscript because he didn't want He Shi and Gao Shulin to know that they had been to the low-rise building.
He Shi and Gao Shulin's players found a diagnosis note and a torn diary.
The diagnosis description was prescribed by a psychiatrist to the male host, and it was written in black and white that the male host did indeed have a relatively serious mental illness, visual and auditory hallucinations, and suggested that he be treated as soon as possible.
There are several bottles of pills next to the diagnostic instructions, indicating that the male owner has begun to receive treatment after knowing his condition.
The found diary is incomplete, it is part of the torn part, the hostess wrote that the male host gradually developed from visual and auditory hallucinations to violent tendencies.
He is always nervous and thinks that there is a great danger hidden around him. In order to protect himself, he will attack people and things around him with various tools at his disposal.
The male host was in an abnormal state at that time. In his consciousness, he was attacking the ghost who wanted to hurt him. In order to protect himself, he always kept an axe at hand.
The hostess was frightened, the axe broke the furniture or secondly, what if the husband hurt himself and the child?
What does it mean: "This is the clue we found, what about yours?"
The scrap of drawing paper was on Shen Qingcheng. Hearing that, he took it out and gave it to him.
What is it, Gao Shulin and other players gathered around to look carefully.
Shen Qingcheng heard the impetuous male player named Hong Ganglie say angrily: "What kind of clue is this? It's almost waste paper!"
The next words could not be heard clearly. At this time, Shen Qingcheng and Lu Qi had already gone up to the second floor.
Indeed, the clues of what is meant by others indicate that the male host is likely to be only mentally ill at first, and the faceless ghost or the red ghost appeared later.
The drawing paper found by Shen Qingcheng and the others can provide evidence for this idea.
This can explain why there are only a few pictures of children with black figures representing the master, because at that time everything was just the imagination of the master.
He imagined a ghost who wanted to hurt him, and then fought back in order to protect himself.
But since the male owner had already started to receive treatment at that time, why did his condition become more and more serious?
He thought of the animals in the paintings in each room, not only the male owner's illness, maybe the appearance of the red faceless ghost is also related to these animals.
The intricate story lines make people's brains hurt. In this way, Lu Qi, who infers that the male host is mentally ill without knowing the clue of the diagnosis certificate, is very cool.
Shen Qingcheng turned his eyes to look at the man's well-defined profile, his eyes lit up, "How did you know it in the first place? Without knowing the clue of the diagnosis certificate, you can infer the male host. It's mental illness, it's amazing!"
Thighs are thighs.
He just wanted to vent his amazement, so Lu Qi didn't answer and he didn't care. After waiting outside his room, he waved to the man, "Good night"
Before going to bed, Shen Qingcheng stood in front of the oil painting in his room and looked at it for a while, the pregnant doe, he looked down at the red mask with white cat paw marks in his hand.
What is the relationship between the two?
Xiao Liu is dead, I don't know who the faceless ghost is looking for tonight.
Shen Qingcheng had a peaceful night. When he woke up the next morning, there was fine snow fluttering outside the window. It was extremely cold today. He pulled out a thick scarf and Wear gloves before going out.
Outside the door, Lu Qi was leaning against the wall waiting for him. Lu Qi lowered his eyes and seemed to be contemplating. The dim yellow wall lamp cast a warm light on his handsome eyebrows.
"Good morning, Lu Qi." Shen Qingcheng greeted energetically.
Lu Qi stood up straight and replied, "Morning."
The two walked downstairs side by side.
Shen Qingcheng: "What are we doing today?"
Lu Qi: "Go to the low building."
Shen Qingcheng: "Huh?"
Lu Qi: "The low-rise building is where the male master works, and there should be more than just the manuscript."
Shen Qingcheng nodded, the thick scarf made his movement a bit difficult, "You're right."
Both of them are in good condition today. Compared with their relaxed state of mind, the atmosphere of the players downstairs is not very good.
They didn't stop in the lobby who wanted to leave before the little girl came out. Shen Qingcheng heard a little while passing by. A male player said that he heard the sound of breaking the window last night.
Ah, so the Faceless Ghost is looking for him.
Players have experienced Xiaoliu's incident and know that most of the people who are smashed at night will not survive the next night, so the player's mood is a little broken.
He Shi and Gao Shulin were comforting him and didn't want his emotions to affect others.
Shen Qingcheng didn't think much about it, if he really wanted to appease, he might as well quickly solve the story line and end the game.
They deliberately picked some extra nuts and berries for today's breakfast last night, and at this time the two walked towards the low building while eating.
Shen Qingcheng ate a particularly sour berry, so sour that his eyes narrowed. He took what Lu Qi handed him and stuffed it into his mouth. It was so sweet.
The low building is still the same as when they left yesterday, the only difference is that a layer of white snow has fallen on the corrupt black vine.
Lu Qi walked in front, grabbed Shen Qingcheng's wrist with one hand, and pushed open the damp wooden door with the other.
The room was dark, and Lu Qi lit the candle he brought from the room.
Just when Shen Qingcheng thought they were going to search each room one by one like yesterday, Lu Qi took him straight to the bookshelf in the corner.
Let go before Lu Qi said, "It'll be fine in a while." Then he handed the candle to him.
Shen Qingcheng was holding the candlestick, he didn't understand the meaning of this sentence, Lu Qi beside him was already groping for something on the bookshelf with both hands.
Find and twist, followed by a "click", the heavy wooden bookshelf slowly moved to one side.
There is a square entrance on the ground where the bookshelf was originally placed, and inside is a darker darkness than the low-rise building.
Shen Qingcheng: "!"
Lu Qi took over the candlestick again, Shen Qingcheng: "How do you know there is a tunnel here?"
It seems that after he met Lu Qi, he always asked questions like "How do you know"? Does it make him look stupid?
Lu Qi: "It's the basement. There are signs of movement on the ground. It was interrupted by the sound from upstairs yesterday."
Shen Qingcheng’s automatic brain translation:
Shen Qingcheng refused to accept, "Even if you are fast, your eyesight is still so good, why is the game not blocked?!"
I didn't think it was a big deal at first. Sealing the Yin-Yang Eyes didn't make much difference to him.
Lu Qi: "?"
He asked, "What did the game block you?"
Shen Qingcheng was indignant, "It's nothing, just eyesight and arrogance."
Lu Qi: "…"
He was making trouble again as Shen Meiren, grabbed his wrist and turned around, "Well, let's go down."
Shen Qingcheng was puzzled, Shen Qingcheng was wronged, and his reaction was so bland, shouldn't you complain about the dog game company with me at this time?
Connecting the ground and the basement is a wooden ladder, the wooden ladder is covered with dust, it seems that no one has been here for a long time.
The space below was bigger than they thought, Shen Qingcheng looked around with a pair of "blind" eyes.
Besides Lu Qi found the wall light switch in the corner, "click".
The lights came on, and Shen Qingcheng was almost scared to death by the red figure with his head hanging on the wall opposite.
The author has something to say:
Shen Qingcheng: I'm not afraid of ghosts and I won't get in the way of being scared, just a little
