In fact, to be honest, Xiao Zhang's handling of emergency issues is still somewhat flawed. Firstly, it is due to lack of experience, and secondly, he is accustomed to the special attributes brought by the benefits.
In the past, whatever he did, Brother Zhang, would always come true. The multiverse modeled on the current world had nothing to offer him. Even if he said he wanted the sun to come out from the west, the earth would start tonight.
To rotate, you need to adjust the side.
But now, without the blessing of ability, he has experienced the world as an ordinary ability user, and his flaws and advantages have been exposed all at once. But this is a good thing. In normal times, Brother Zhang
How can one get a strong sense of accomplishment from such trivial things?
"Let's go back to the cafeteria."
The fairy girl waved to Brother Zhang: "Nod."
The two returned and began to count the number of people inside. The number was finally determined to be one hundred and thirty-three. Among these one hundred and thirty-three, there were a total of thirty-nine people wearing modern clothes, including two of them.
Colleagues are among them.
One thing these people have in common is that they seem to have lost their six senses. They are not affected by any external factors and act completely in accordance with the procedures and standards of this guest house. Even if they are pushed down or tied up, they cannot control their behavior.
, just like puppets on strings, following a predetermined path over and over again.
According to the observations of Brother Zhang and Xiangu, the guest house does have its own time points. For example, there is breakfast at 7:30 in the morning, lunch at 11:30 in the afternoon, dinner at 5:30 in the evening, and then there is
At night, there are many more activities at night. In addition to the knocking on the door they experienced last night, there will also be various random events.
They spent a day observing the changes in the guest house, but there were no signs of reincarnation. This meant that there must still be some mechanism that did not meet the triggering conditions. Just like playing a game, they must have failed to complete a certain prerequisite task, so
Causes all NPCs to enter stereotyped behavior patterns.
When night was about to fall the next day, Xiao Zhang and Xian Gu did not return to the room. They chose to sit in the yard and wait for the night to officially come.
"We must have missed some plot." Fairy Gu said: "It's a pity that the mobile phone has no signal, otherwise we can ask colleagues to help find out what happened in this guest house."
"Ah?" Brother Zhang took out his mobile phone at this time: "I have it."
Xiangu watched the chat software on Brother Zhang's mobile phone constantly refreshing messages. He silently took out his mobile phone and took a look. There was a big "no signal" sign on it, which made Xiangu look at Brother Zhang with confused eyes again.
"Why do you have a signal?"
"I don't know either, it just exists."
Fairy Girl slapped her thigh: "Then what are you waiting for? Just ask! If you had told us earlier, we wouldn't have to wait a day."
"I didn't expect it." Brother Zhang laughed twice to cover up his embarrassment: "I have no experience."
"It's okay, I'll know next time."
With the help of Xiangu, Brother Zhang quickly reported what happened here to the outside world.
"The general situation is that all residents and colleagues are trapped in the field. They are repeating the process of that day, but we cannot trigger the next step. We hope to help investigate the details of the guest house tragedy."
After this request for help was sent, everyone outside breathed a sigh of relief, and then the video call was hung up directly. This was probably the first time that humans had used instant messaging software to cross two different worlds, the human world and the ghost world.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute, our computer is recording the whole process." There were about ten people squatting in front of the mobile phone camera opposite. Everyone wanted to see what it was like inside the ghost: "How do you feel over there?
Sample?"
"I don't feel it, it's just that things here are weird."
After saying that, Xiangu took Brother Zhang's mobile phone and pointed it at the half-faced beauty who was in the duty room. After seeing her appearance, everyone outside took a breath. When had these guys in the back office seen this?
In the scene, a girl in charge of recording covered her mouth and rushed to the bathroom, and even the men were frightened.
"I'm not talking about you. You guys in the internal affairs department are really frustrated. This scene can scare you like this."
"Behind you!"
Following a shout from someone unknown, Brother Zhang and Xiangu turned around. This turn almost frightened Xiangu. In just a few minutes, there were actually people standing behind them, because they
They were sitting, so those people gathered behind them and bent down to watch the videos on their mobile phones. These people's faces were gray, and they became even whiter when they were illuminated by the light of their mobile phones. It felt particularly scary to watch them in the video.
.
Fairy Girl quickly stood up and took out a dagger from her waist to put herself on alert, but those people still kept their posture of watching and motionless, like scarecrows in the fields, but their dead fish-like eyes were so wide open that they looked at each other and gave people a look.
A creepy feeling.
Brother Zhang was still sitting there. His reaction was more than half a beat slower than that of Fairy Aunt. When he turned around, he happened to meet the faces of those people. Brother Zhang stared at them for a while, and then slowly took out the talisman from his arms.
, picked a thunderbolt, took out the lighter and started reading the instruction manual.
"The first step is to take out the talisman paper and hold it between your index finger and middle finger."
Brother Zhang did as he was told, and then continued: "The second step is to light it with fire."
"click."
"Step three, throw!"
Brother Zhang threw out the burning talisman in his hand. At that moment, hundreds of purple lightning bolts like giant pythons appeared in the sky, snaking from the sky, seeming to tear through the space and light up.
dark night.
The burning talisman did not fall to the ground, but rose straight into the sky. Then the lightning came straight here as if it had a soul, and along with the lightning came dazzling white flames.
Almost instantly, lightning and flames swallowed it all up.
When Brother Zhang's eyes recovered again, he found that he was already standing outside the residential building. The entire residential building in front of him had disappeared without a trace, leaving only a circle of white traces on the ground to prove that the building once existed.
All the ghosts, residents, and colleagues were saved by this spell that was comparable to the Ninefold Thunder Tribulation. The little girl was gone, the hemorrhoid cream was gone, the fairy aunt was gone, and of course the guest house was gone...
"Ah." Brother Zhang clasped his hands together: "Time goes back!"
With a whimper, he returned to the guest house again and was surrounded by a lot of strange things, bending down and watching. The fairy girl next to him was waiting for him and kept making eyes at him.
Brother Zhang let out a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, I can cheat."
One of the characteristics of time and space retrieval is that it cannot change the established facts, which means that no matter how we go back, it will definitely happen. Any human interference will be brought back by the powerful error correction ability of the world line, but time and space do not correct Brother Zhang, so
As long as there are some problems caused by him, for example, if he accidentally kills someone, he can use backtracking to go back to before the person died and avoid his angle.
This does not conflict with his rule of not resurrecting the dead, because only those who died because of him can be brought back by the time and space regression he casts. Others will die even if they are killed.
"Brother Zhang, come here quickly!"
The fairy girl shouted, and Brother Zhang silently put the charms back into his arms, and then stood next to the fairy girl, but he kept wondering in his heart how powerful the more powerful guy that Lao Jun said was...
However, Brother Zhang also discovered his flaw from what happened just now, that is, he habitually uses cannons to kill mosquitoes. In the mortal world, this kind of thing is tantamount to a dimensionality reduction attack. If this thinking does not change, time and space will be looked back in the future.
He used some of the functions.
What was happening in front of him didn't scare him at all, but Xiangu leaned on Brother Zhang's back very nervously: "Brother Zhang, be careful."
"Well!" Brother Zhang also took out the dagger: "What are we going to do now?"
The fairy lady took a look at the people who were getting up slowly, then took Brother Zhang back step by step until he reached the concierge, and patted the window of the beautiful woman with half his face: "There are so many people in front of you!"
The half-faced beauty poked her head out and took a look: "Don't go out at night."
After saying that, she shouted outside at a higher volume: "Blind people can't come in!"
After that, she walked out and closed the door of the guest house with a bang. Those people outside did not come in again, but Brother Zhang and Banxian were scolded by the half-faced beautiful waiter like the third grandson and were driven back to the room.
.
After returning to the room, they took out their mobile phones. Before the video was hung up, there was already a crowd of people on the other side of the video, including even senior managers from their region.
"You saw it just now, it was so strange." Xiangu said breathlessly: "Hurry up and tell me what happened here? Why is it so annoying?"
A girl in charge of file management was called over at the other end. She looked sweaty, and she must have run all the way. He held a printed copy in his hand and started talking.
"According to the information we found from the national major crime database, the massacre in the guest house occurred on May 18, 198X, which is today. According to the records at the time, a group of gangsters broke into the hotel at 1:40 in the morning.
The hostel held the staff and tenants hostage until about nine o'clock in the morning on the third day, and in the end only seven people survived."
Fairy Girl frowned: "Details!"
The little girl was obviously startled, trembled, and then said tremblingly: "According to the survivor's description... there were eleven gangsters in total, all male. After entering the guest house, they immediately locked the front and back doors with chains.
He then drove the kidnapped people to the guest house canteen and brutally killed four victims at the beginning, namely the person in charge of the guest house, the chef, the receptionist and a service staff, and then let the kidnapped people come from three places.
They threw the victim's body downstairs through the window of the building. After that, they killed one kidnapped person every hour in various ways. The methods were extremely cruel, and women were insulted by them."
Just by describing it, Brother Zhang could understand how vicious these people were, and just by thinking about it, he could already feel the despair of those innocent people at that time.
"They..." When she said this, the file management girl actually retched, and finally her face began to look embarrassed.
Hearing this, Xiangu and Brother Zhang looked at each other, didn't the plot match up? The scene they saw in the morning actually happened.
And the purpose of those dead souls is probably not to harm others but to have someone avenge them.
"Continue." Fairy Girl took a deep breath and said, "What else is up there?"
"On the morning of the third day, they realized that there was no hope of escape and wanted to die together, causing a third of the guest house to collapse. Only seven people survived, but they all suffered varying degrees of injuries."
"okay."
Brother Zhang nodded, turned to Fairy Aunt and said, "What time was the incident triggered?"
"One forty in the morning."
The two of them looked down at the time and calculated it again. It was now about nine o'clock in the evening, and next there would be incidents of waiters knocking on the door and midnight snacks. After these two incidents passed, it was possible that
It will trigger a tragedy.
But they didn't hear anything yesterday. What's going on?
The two of them racked their brains in the room, and finally Brother Zhang thought of a possibility. He said, "Do you think there is a mole in the guest house, and he helped open the door of the guest house?"
"Front door? No, there is a yard in front with an iron gate."
After finishing speaking, Fairy Aunt and Brother Zhang looked at each other again and said in unison: "Back door!"
If you follow this statement, then many unreasonable places become reasonable. Only the existence of an insider can allow this group of gangsters to understand the movements of everyone in the guest house and the layout of the guest house itself. This also explains why their actions will
So smooth.
"Let's go find the back door of the guest house now. I will hang my phone here." Xiangu put on the tactical strap and fixed the phone on it: "You have to record the whole process."
"Okay, both of you should be careful."
At this time, Brother Zhang turned his head and came into the camera and said: "From what I understand, if the souls of the dead need to be redressed for their grievances, we are not in any danger. We just need to free them."
"They have been dead for so many years, and those gangsters have been dead for so long. What grievances do they have?" The leader at the other end of the video asked curiously: "This shouldn't be the case."
But Brother Zhang laughed: "What if there are one or two left?"
