The author's diary of ghost stories

Chapter 14 The blind man touches the elephant.

"call--"

Lao Du ran all the way into the performance hall, followed by a strong sense of oppression. The huge and invisible monster slammed into the door of the performance hall. The doors and windows shattered instantly, but as Lao Du said, "Elephant" There is no way to get inside the building.

"Roar--"

"Roar--"

It kept shouting outside the building, but did not change the sounds of different animals. It seemed that only the roar of a ferocious beast could express its inner anger.

However, Lao Du didn't care at all. After entering the door, he relaxed completely, took off the backpack behind him, and leaned against the wall, breathing heavily. It was obvious that the operation just now consumed him too much energy.

And after witnessing the whole process of Lao Du dragging the "elephant", he was convinced that the bear trap was definitely not something that could be measured by common sense. A bear trap the size of a dinner plate could actually trap an incorporeal monster the size of a building. , and can be trapped for nearly three seconds.

His body exuded steam-like white mist. The state just now seemed to be that his body was overloaded, and his body temperature was higher than normal, so he simply took off his shirt, revealing his strong upper body. The muscles were not large and the lines were sharp. The feeling was not obvious, but Yu Liang knew that the trainers in the gym would definitely be beaten to tears by Lao Du easily.

Because Lao Du's body was full of wounds, knife wounds and round hole-like wounds were arranged on his bronze skin, giving him a strange and fierce beauty.

"Is this a gunshot wound?" Xiao Zhize looked at the circular wound and said in shock, "Do other tourists have guns?"

"No." Lao Du said, "The 'broken' character can only do this. It can't kill me, but there are always idiots who want to try."

Yu Liang remembered that Lao Du said that the effective range of characters is five steps, and the target needs to be locked with eyes. If they don't kill Lao Du within five steps, the fate of these idiots is obvious.

It's just that the wounds on Lao Du's body were beyond his expectation. It seemed that Lao Du didn't have any defensive characters on his body. Lao Du would also be injured when facing attacks.

Are defensive characters scarce?

"Thank you." Yu Liang thanked him. After Lao Du intervened, he and Xiao Zhize entered the performance hall smoothly.

"It's okay." Lao Du shook his head, "It's just consuming some materials."

"Is it a metal spoon? They should be sold in the store, I can help you make up for it." Xiao Zhize immediately followed. Now he has learned to be smarter and did not ask Lao Du about the origin of the bear trap.

Lao Du shook his head: "No, I have prepared a lot."

He glanced at the two of them, as if he knew what they were thinking, and did not hide it. He said straightforwardly: "You should also notice that there is a 'not alienated' sign behind the occupation on the main page."

"Yeah." Xiao Zhize nodded, "My profession is a financial analyst."

"After completing certain special ghost stories, your profession will be alienated and you will gain some special abilities, but generally there will be no more than three." Lao Du continued, "My profession is a hunter, so I can make animal traps. ."

"Is that so?" Xiao Zhize fell into deep thought, and soon smiled bitterly, "Forget it, I think my profession is useless even if it is alienated."

He feels that his profession may not be useful even if it is alienated, so he has little interest in this additional adventure.

"If you have the chance, you should give it a try. Professional alienation is just the first step to gain a foothold here." Lao Du just mentioned something, but he still had something he didn't reveal.

In the entire zoo, there are no more than five people with alienation professions, because most of the visitors will die in the first week. The continuous strange stories will make them exhausted, and they will have no time to explore the park and get the opportunity to alienate. .

Is that really the case?

Lao Du's words also confirmed Yu Liang's previous guess. He and Xiao Zhize had different ideas. They must try their best to obtain this alienated profession no matter what.

He can probably guess that the alienated hunter profession has given Lao Du those abilities. The first is physical fitness, and the bonus is definitely not low. After all, Lu Xing in the "howling cold" state is still suppressed by Lao Du; the second is the capture just now The animal trap; the third thing should be the weird way of releasing the knife.

"Lao Du, that 'elephant' just now, does it carry any strange stories?" Xiao Zhize asked. He was frightened when he thought of the invisible monster. If Lao Du hadn't intervened in time, neither he nor Yu Liang would have survived. Come down.

Lao Du shook his head: "I don't know, no one has triggered it. According to my experience, only buff-type monsters are so difficult to trigger. But for us, it is like some kind of natural disaster. We must avoid it in time when it happens. Come on, if there are no buildings nearby, you will have to consider yourself unlucky.”

He thought for a while: "Some people have touched it before, but their opinions are different. Some say it is soft and others say it is hard. We can only confirm that touching is not a condition that triggers this strange story."

These words also stunned Yu Liang slightly, and he quickly connected these clues in his mind.

indescribable.

elephant.

Lots of changes.

Almost instantly, Yu Liang thought of an ancient text.

All the blind people feel the elephant, and everyone talks heresy.

When it touches the teeth, it speaks like a reed root; when it touches the ears, it speaks like a dustpan; when it touches the head, it speaks like a stone; when it touches the nose, it speaks like a pole; when it touches the feet, it speaks like a pole The wood is white; when it touches the back, it sounds like a bed; when it touches the belly, it sounds like an urn; when it touches the tail, it sounds like a rope.

"I seem to be able to guess what its prototype is." Yu Liang's tone was a little uncertain, but he was already sure of the answer.

The eyes of Lao and Du fell on him, and he also expressed his thoughts, "When a blind man touches an elephant, it should be an elephant."

This is not difficult to guess. As long as Lao Du has this information, many people can guess it with a flash of inspiration. But the tourists here are not like Lao Du. They don’t even have time to live, let alone collect so much information. .

Xiao Zhize on the side was reminded by this, sporadic memories came to his mind, and he said firmly: "Indeed, if you think about it carefully, we are blind, so the 'elephant' we see changes with observation."

Lao Du asked: "Blind men and elephants? I can't remember this clearly. Tell me what it was about."

"The general meaning is that a few blind people who have never seen an elephant touch the elephant. Some only touch the teeth, and some only touch the ears, so the concept of elephant in their minds is completely different." Yu Liang explained simply. .

"Is this so? If it's just like this, it still seems difficult to use." Lao Du slowed down and thought deeply, but after thinking for a while, he couldn't connect any key points, so he had to give up.

He glanced at the door of the performance hall and continued: "This guy seems to have not left yet. Let's stop in this performance hall first."

"Okay." Yu Liang agreed. They had been staying in the hall from the beginning. He looked around. The hall was very empty. There were only a few rows of unoccupied seats. Not far away, there was a small mobile phone with some small chalk writing on it. Blackboard, there is a female employee near the front desk, but there seems to be endless work on the computer in front of her, and no employee has ever raised her head to look at them until now.

He wanted to go to the front desk to ask about some things about the performance hall, but adhering to the basic principle that special employees may carry ghost stories, Yu Liang did not move to the front desk, but walked to the small blackboard.

"There is no day exhibition today. Visitors are asked to enter the performance hall along the left road." This sentence is written on the small blackboard, and not far from the small blackboard is the circular exhibition hall. There are some commemorative exhibits in the exhibition hall. There are some photos and introductions hanging on the wall. Looking from here, the exhibition hall is connected by three roads, each leading to different places.

Lao Du came up from behind. He stood in front of the small blackboard and looked at it for a while. Then he turned the small blackboard over, revealing the dirty backside of the blackboard.

"Animal cannibalism performance", six simple characters, surrounded by some childish cartoon animal images, including a tiger holding a human head with a bright smile in its mouth, and wild wolves and lions that eat human limbs. Their faces were stained with red blood, and each of them turned into a dramatic painted face.

"This is..." Xiao Zhize was shocked by this scene, and his face instantly turned pale. The pictures on the blackboard all had the innocence of a child playing house, but the horror and weirdness in them were also undisguised.

Lao Du thought for a while: "It may be a preview of the Japanese exhibition. You can't come near the performance hall these days."

Yu Liang approached the blackboard and carefully observed the red marks on the blackboard.

That is not chalk, but paint, paint that cannot be removed. In other words, the content on the back of the blackboard cannot be easily modified.

There is no preview date on it. Compared to the day show preview, he thinks it is more likely to be a permanent program of the night show.

Night exhibition?
