The master of metaphysics discovers that he is a villain after time travel

【What do you unserstand? ] The system is a little confused.

"I've always regarded this incident as an ordinary haunting before, and I didn't discover the problem here until just now." Ji Yu looked at the forest ahead with some seriousness, and it had returned to its original appearance, completely gone. horrific scene.

"Someone has set up a formation here. If something or someone hadn't touched the formation just now, I wouldn't have been able to find it."

"Looks like we have to follow that old man at night. We're already at the point of warning. If he knows where the remaining college student is, he will definitely go there at night to make sure that college student is still in the same place."

[Little fish is so smart! 】After the system finished saying this sentence, a burst of clapping suddenly appeared in Ji Yu's mind.

"...Your high technology has reached such a terrifying level?"

-

At the village chief's house, everyone was silent without saying a word. After all, before coming here, everyone thought that this matter was an ordinary haunted disappearance case, but now they found that this matter is not easy to solve, at least it seems that they can't solve it.

After a long silence in the silent front hall, a weak male voice came out: "How about...let's find reinforcements, the current situation is beyond our control."

As soon as the words came out, some people showed some joy on their faces. Just when everyone was about to agree, Xu Qingshan, who was sitting next to Xu Qingli, said hesitantly: "But we don't have a car. We agreed with the car that brought us here. It’s been five days, and it’s only the second day and there’s no signal here, and we can’t even make a phone call.”

The joy on everyone's faces gradually faded, and they became more and more silent again.

Just as everyone was frowning, Jiang Liuyun said: "Since there are still three days left, why don't we continue to investigate this matter. Now the clues we know are very fragmented. Everyone can tell us what we know so far and sort it out."

After thinking for a while, Xu Qingli said, "The villagers in this village don't seem to be alive."

The girl next to Ji Yu also quickly added: "Besides these, there is a female ghost in the village, or more than one, she can take on the appearance of others!"

"Now our task is not only to find the remaining college student, but also to find out all the things that happened here." Jiang Liuyun looked at Ji Yu after finishing speaking solemnly.

"Ji Yu, what about you?"

Before Ji Yu could speak, he heard the system frantically swiping the screen in his mind [Quickly remind them! 】

"As the only living person in the village, the old man must know something. I think we can keep an eye on him at night. If he knows the whereabouts of the remaining person, he will definitely go and see, whether that person is dead or alive."

"Okay, that night, Ji Yu, Qing Li and I will go, and the rest of the people will look for other living people in the village. Be careful and run away if you find anything wrong." Jiang Liuyun earnestly instructed.

-

At night, three flashlights lit up the pitch-black back mountain. The three of them met each other and then moved towards the only house in the back mountain.

The old man's residence was only found out after asking the villagers. Although these villagers did not look like living people, they knew some things clearly. Except that they were not alive, they were no different from living people.

The back mountain is not far from the old man's residence. In order to squat down to the old man, the three of them deliberately came here as soon as it got dark.

"Are you sure that old man will come out? Xiaoyu, what if he has a big heart?"

"Not sure, but nine times out of ten he will check it out. If he doesn't, we'll just break in and force him to take us."

"Xiaoyu, now is a society ruled by law, this is not acceptable."

Ji Yu shrugged, suddenly someone patted his shoulder, and looked up to see that Jiang Liuyun was winking at the two of them.

"He's out, follow up." Jiang Liuyun said very carefully.

【He looks the most serious, Xiaoyu, you should be serious too! 】

Ji Yu looked at the two people who had gone far ahead and replied perfunctorily: "I know, I know, I promise to complete the task."

The three sneaked behind the old man. The road behind the mountain was not that difficult. Although there were many trees, the trees here were very thin. Not to mention covering Jiang Liuyun, even Ji Yu and Xu Qingli couldn't stop them.

The only thing I can do is stay away from the old man. The old man is very vigilant. After taking two steps, he turned around and looked around. There were no birds or insects in the surrounding area. It was so quiet that the three of them would make a slight noise when they stepped on the leaves. Click' sound.

【what to do?I don't think you can follow. ] The sound of gloating came out, making Ji Yu wish he could get it out of his head and beat him up.

After another 'click' sounded, Ji Yu gave up the idea of ​​keeping the original character design, and drew a talisman decisively.

Looking at the shocked eyes of the two, Ji Yu touched his nose guiltily: "I'm new in the book, how about trying it out, you can't hide, you can only make sure that when we are some distance away from him, he won't be able to spot us."

[Aren't you afraid of being exposed? 】

"Sooner or later they will find out that something is wrong. I am completely different from the original Ji Yu. Although I have absorbed her memory, I still can't imitate it."

"Instead of doing the task so slowly while hiding it, it's better to expose it bit by bit. If I don't show some strength, how can they take me with them next time they accept the task?"

Xu Qingli and Jiang Liuyun glanced at each other, but did not speak. The three of them quickly kept a distance from the old man.

As soon as they caught up with the old man, they immediately turned around. Jiang Liuyun and Xu Qingli subconsciously wanted to run away, but then they remembered that there were symbols drawn by Ji Yu, so the old man probably wouldn't be able to find them.

The old man looked around for a while, then turned his head back to the front, and continued to walk forward with the oil lamp in hand. Xu Qingli turned his head and gave Ji Yu a thumbs up, making a powerful mouth shape.

But after a while, a natural-looking cave appeared in front of the old man. This cave was hidden on the side of the hillside. If you didn't look for it deliberately, you probably wouldn't be able to see it standing in front of the hillside.

Seeing the old man go in, Xu Qingli and Jiang Liuyun subconsciously wanted to follow in. Ji Yu raised his hand to stop them, glanced at the cave and said, "We will go in after he leaves. In the afternoon, I found that there is a For a large formation, there must be a person with high morals or a special magic weapon here, so don't let the old man find us, in case he goes to inform us."

Jiang Liuyun looked at Ji Yu, and said hesitantly, "What if he went to silence the remaining survivor? Should we ignore it?"

"We are not sure whether that person is alive. If he is still alive, the old man must have other uses for keeping him, and he will not be killed easily. But if there is really an expert here, once the old man goes to inform us, we really Can you beat it?"

Jiang Liuyun glanced at the cave and thought for a while, then nodded silently, and didn't say anything else.

The three of them stared at the hole silently, and after a sound of iron chains, the old man came out of the hole in less than 10 minutes.
