▍Fake Psychic
Outside the door is an empty corridor, and the person who put down the mirror has long since disappeared.
No one was naive enough to interpret this behavior as an accident or a prank.If it's just a purely spiritual adventure, there is no need to fight to the death.
Unless...the person who put down the mirror has some other purpose hidden, and the temptation to achieve the goal is big enough for him to cruelly trample on human life.
For example, it is a chance to make a wish for a bastard who is despised by everyone to become a rich man.
"Do you want to go out and find who put the mirror?" Cui Yunjin asked.
Xiao Lv shook his head: "The probability that that person is still there is very low. Let's read the clues in the study first."
At least now they have just solved the maid Xiao An entrenched in the study. Compared with other places full of unknowns, this place is temporarily safe.
They need to hurry up to get more clues from Yin Sen.
There is a small display cabinet next to the desk, and inside it is a statue carved from an unknown black stone, shaped like a standing crow, as long as an arm.
The crow lowers its eyes and looks down. It is obviously the face of a bird, but the exquisite craftsmanship of the craftsman can portray the scrutiny and playfulness in the eyes.
It seems to be condescendingly watching some small existence, listening to the other's insignificant wishes to pass the time.
Xiao Lv stretched out his hand, trying to pick up the statue and look at it carefully. The moment he touched the cold stone, the voice seemed to pass through the barrier of time and rang in his ears.
There seemed to be a sky full of yellow sand in front of my eyes, and a small figure in a cloak appeared in front of my eyes.
The girl's voice was tender and sweet, like freshly picked grapes with dewdrops on them: "I want to save the oasis."
Another voice is vague and ethereal, and it is difficult to distinguish age and gender: "This is barren, closed, and sparsely populated. It is not a suitable place to live. Why don't you move?"
"This is my home, and I want to protect everyone. My father said that fallen leaves without roots can't find a place to go, and can only wander alone. I don't want everyone to become like that."
"What can you give?"
"my eyes."
"Let me see... um... you have a pair of perfect eyes, you can see through emptiness, and look directly at the origin of all things. You should already know this."
"Yes."
"Such a pair of eyes can help you achieve your own glorious future, and its value is far more than any treasure in the world. You can be admired by thousands of people, have absolute power and status, and pass your name down for thousands of years."
"And if you lose it, you can only be a weak and ignorant ordinary person. Even because you can't see your life worse than ordinary people, you will no longer have a glorious future, and you will not be able to meet your destined lover. Those honors engraved in fate no longer belong to you."
"Are you still willing to trade it?"
"I am willing."
"Hehe...you are very interesting."
"As you wish, my little lamb, your hometown will no longer be troubled by water sources, the barren land will become fertile, and the strong wind in the desert will treat it gently."
"Thank you, my god, the Daina Tribe will always remember your bestowal."
"This is not a gift, it's just that your wish pleases me..."
The sound disappeared.
In addition, there is a simple bronze mask, and a stone tablet that records the story. The content on the stone tablet is very familiar to Xiao Lv, and it is one of the ones he has seen in Principal Yang's notebook before.
But the only one that can produce sound and picture after touching it is the statue.
Xiao Lu stood up: "It seems that Principal Yang is right when he said that Yin Sen made a wish on something."
"But his final ending was not so good, what do you think?" Cui Yunjin asked.
Xiao Lv thought for a moment: "Maybe the problem lies in the 'wish' itself. His wish or price did not please that existence."
At this point in the investigation, it already falls into the scope not mentioned in the plot given by the system.And these seem to be the real secrets of the plot.
The dog system allows them to find the core of the world, but does not give important clues. Is it deliberately done by evil tastes, or is there a lot of information in this world that the main system does not know.
If it is the latter, the behavior of the main system has the meaning of sneaking into other people's homes and stealing.
·
Two figures ran hurriedly in the corridor.
This is the middle-aged couple in their 40s who entered the hotel with Xiao Lu and the others.These two people were very low-key before, except when they questioned Guo and Jiangmu, they had almost no sense of presence.
But at this moment, when they ran at high speed, their speed was not lost to any young man.
The woman's coat was gone, revealing the sports vest she was wearing underneath. The muscles on her arms were strong, unlike an ordinary middle-aged woman.
The man was already tall, but at this moment he looked a bit more imposing than the tough guy in the movie.There is no doubt that if they fight against people, even if they are twice as many as their own, they will not be at a disadvantage.
But it is not the living who are chasing them now.
A group of people wearing costumes from a hundred years ago chased after them. These people looked horrible.A woman in a cheongsam is holding her head in her hands, a man with a strong figure has no skin, and a well-dressed gentleman has lost his lower body.
Their faces were as pale as paper, and no human emotion could be seen in their empty eye sockets.
Only killing intent remained.
The floor, the walls, the ceiling are all these crazy ghosts.
They stared at the living creature that appeared in front of their eyes, trying to swallow the two of them, sinking forever like themselves.
The corridor seemed to be a maze, and the originally simple and clear path could not reach the exit.
"Sister." The man suddenly said, "You run first, I will block them."
The woman was surprised: "Don't mess around, the situation is not right now, we may have encountered a ghost hitting the wall."
The man looked at her ankle with three more paw prints, and said in a deep voice, "You won't be able to run for long, we Luo family can't all die here."
If there were other people present, they would definitely be surprised by the word "Luo's family". As far as they knew, these two people, one named Wang Ning and the other named Zhen Xin, neither had the surname Luo.
And Luo is the surname of the family of a wealthy businessman who died here back then.
"Ning Sheng, you can't give up yet." The woman gritted her teeth and grabbed her younger brother, continuing to run forward.
She looked bitter: "We still underestimated this place. Grandpa has been keeping silent about what happened to his parents and sister back then, and even prevented us from going abroad to investigate news related to them."
"Maybe he's right..."
Both siblings were still studying abroad when their parents had an accident. The news of their parents' death came suddenly, and the family's attitude of avoiding talking about it was also very strange.
The siblings only know that their father is not only a businessman, but also a folklorist like their mother. It is said that the death of their parents is related to what they have been investigating.
They have been trying to investigate what happened back then, but they have been separated by oceans and decades, and under the deliberate concealment and obstruction of their elders, their progress has been limited.
It wasn't until the news of Qiuming Hotel's reopening that they set foot on their strange hometown, pretending to be husband and wife to check in, in fact to find out about their parents' past events.
Unexpectedly, the danger of the past far exceeded their imagination.
It wasn't a murder, it wasn't finding information that shouldn't be done, it wasn't getting involved in the struggle of local forces, it was an irresistible force.
The endless cycle of corridors, together with the attacks of ghosts, quickly consumed the physical strength of the siblings.
They no longer remember how many times they have been attacked, and how many times they survived with each other's support. It seems that they have fallen into a steady stream of nightmares. No matter how hard they struggle, they can't find the hope of waking up.
So what if they are all good at fighting?Their attacks couldn't hurt these ghosts at all.
New wounds appeared on their bodies constantly, and the direction of progress was always an endless corridor. They couldn't even tell whether it was their own strength to escape from the attack of the ghosts or the deliberate play of these ghosts.
"Uh——" the man let out a cry of pain, and blood burst from his back.
The blood-stained female ghost was giggling, the corners of her bright red mouth were split open, and her dark fingertips were clinging to warm bright red.
"Ning Sheng!"
Seeing that the female ghost was about to attack her younger brother again with her five fingers forming claws, the woman didn't have time to think about it, she went to bed and used her back to protect the man who stopped because of the pain.
Being able to die with my parents... can be regarded as a family reunion...
Luo Jingxin comforted herself sadly.
"Excuse me." A cold voice suddenly sounded from above, like an auditory hallucination when dying.
The two raised their heads in astonishment, and saw a hand with distinct joints and a string of white jade bodhi wrapped around its wrist.
"Would you like to come in and talk?"
……
Luo Jingxin and Luo Ningsheng were still in a daze until the surroundings quieted down.Did they escape from a desperate situation, or fell into a gentle near-death hallucination?
As the older sister, Luo Jingxin came back to her senses first, thanked Xiao Lv who had extended her helping hand, and then looked around: "What is this place?"
"Yin Sen's study, those ghosts outside should not dare to enter here." Xiao Lu replied calmly.
"Yin Sen!"
These few words startled the two people who had just recovered their lives. Yin Sen, if nothing else happened, he must be the most vicious existence in the Qiuming Hotel...
They actually regard the most dangerous place as a rest area?
"Don't worry, Yin Sen is not here now, and only sent a ghost maid to guard." Cui Yunjin explained thoughtfully.
"Ghost...maid..." Luo Ninggao's tall body was a little stiff, like a big bear doll that had just been thrown into the washing machine.
Cui Yunjin smiled and stretched out her hand and pointed behind her: "Master Alu has already solved it."
The siblings swept across the broken mirrors on the floor, and their awe-inspiring eyes fell on the young man in a moon-white gown with a quiet demeanor. They remembered that those young men called each other "male gods".
God, he is indeed a god.
Xiao Li asked about their previous encounters, and learned that the two came here to find the truth about the death of their parents.
"The death of your parents is inseparable from the ghosts here. I don't recommend that you continue to explore. This is beyond the scope of your self-protection."
The siblings gritted their teeth, of course they were not reconciled to leaving like this, but taking revenge on the ghosts was simply nonsense to them.
"Dong dong dong—" There was a rhythmic knock on the door suddenly.
Several people in the room looked towards the door, but no one stepped forward to open the door - no feet could be seen under the crack of the door.
"Master, you said that the ghosts here should..." Luo Jingxin forced himself to calm down.
Xiao Li stared at the door.
According to what he knows, this is Yin Sen's territory, and the ghosts in the hotel who are weaker than him should instinctively avoid them, especially the ghosts who died in his hands, just like the student ghosts' fear of Principal Yang Same.
What, let the guy who knocked on the door fight his instincts?
His gaze suddenly fell on the injured sibling.They are willing to travel across the oceans to find the truth for their parents who died tragically. What about the one who is being sought?
"You guys, can you play pen fairy?"
The siblings held the pens in each other's hands, chanting the incantation to invite the pen fairy with some trepidation, and then watched the pen at their fingertips move little by little.
The tip of the pen moved very slowly, and the handwriting was crooked. It was not as calm as before downstairs. Obviously, the ghost who wrote these words was not easy.
【Xin Xin】
【Rise】
The middle-aged siblings suddenly had red eyes, and their hearts were sour: "Mom..."
It's been over 20 years and no one has called them that.
【Leave, never come back】
【This is an abyss that should not be gazed at】
Outside the door is an empty corridor, and the person who put down the mirror has long since disappeared.
No one was naive enough to interpret this behavior as an accident or a prank.If it's just a purely spiritual adventure, there is no need to fight to the death.
