Chapter Thirteen I repent, but I don’t ask God for forgiveness
After thinking about it, Yu Xing immediately controlled the pixel man, walked to the first row of seats, hid underneath, and quietly waited for the arrival of the female ghost.
Sure enough, not long after, the terrifying female ghost entered the game console screen at almost the speed of rushing over. The huge ax swung as she walked, and she rushed straight into the confession room, mouth
He let out a laugh that sent chills down his back.
The moment the female ghost entered the confession room, Yu Xing did not let the pixel villain wait in place. He immediately used the fastest speed he could control to control the protagonist Ye Qin into the last position of the rows of seats.
, hiding at the stairway to the second floor. This position is just around the corner, and you can see the overall view of the prayer hall.
He felt that the female ghost had clearly heard the sound this time, and would not check as hastily as before. Perhaps she could even look under each row of seats, so to be on the safe side, he could not let the pixel villain stay there.
Sure enough, there was an earth-shattering roar in the confession room. The female ghost entered the confession room but saw no one. She angrily stuck her head out and split the first row of seats with an ax without any warning.
Good guy, this is more straightforward than Yu Xing imagined.
Yu Xing stared at the female ghost's every move. The female ghost seemed to have determined that there was someone here, and she chopped all the seats wantonly, from beginning to end.
Seeing that the situation was not good, he immediately controlled the pixel man to walk up the stairs to the second floor. The screen suddenly changed the scene and came to the location upstairs.
The upstairs looks a little brighter than the first floor, because there are pillars lit with flames on all sides of the hall. There are relatively few seats next to the pillars, and there are some wooden barrels with unknown uses.
In addition to the hall, there are many closed rooms on the second floor. There is nothing in Yu Xing's item list, and most of the rooms cannot be opened. He raced against time to push them one by one, and only opened the last room.
After entering the house and closing the door, Yu Xing looked at the new room. He found that this room was a little bigger than he thought. It had all kinds of furniture that should belong to a bedroom. There were standing cabinets and a bed. The bed was neatly covered with a layer.
The quilt was a bit wide and hung low.
He was thinking that the overall area of the church did not look large, with only two floors in total. If the three brothers and sisters were all here, then it would be possible for him to meet the other two people, just like what was written on Ye Ting's information paper
.
And where should those two people hide? If there are no secret passages and secret rooms, maybe they are hiding in these rooms.
And now the protagonist of the game is Ye Qin, so Ye Ming and Ye Ting should be equivalent to the NPC characters in this game, and they may have the clues he needs.
Yu Xing thought for a while and controlled the pixel Ye Qin to hide in the cabinet in the room. Since this is not a first-person game, even if Ye Qin hides in, Yu Xing's perspective is still in the entire room. When the female ghost arrives, he will have
Enough room to react.
Once he stopped moving, Ye Qin began his mental activities.
[It’s so scary. If this female ghost has such good hearing, doesn’t it mean that she can hear everything I do? 】
[How can I hide here? The person who wrote the blood letter to remind me wouldn’t have been killed by the female ghost long ago? I don’t want to die. By the way, where is the door of the church? Why didn’t I see it? 】
[Whether I can leave successfully or not, I have to find the door of the church first.]
This is equivalent to giving Yu Xing a mission. In addition to wanting to go to the confessional, Yu Xing has another goal, which is to find the church door.
But he couldn't go out yet, he had to survive the female ghost's round of inspections first. He kept waiting until five minutes later, when he heard the high-frequency footsteps of the female ghost coming from outside the door.
The female ghost opened the door of this room.
After checking from the prayer hall on the first floor to here, the female ghost seemed to have lost so much patience and confidence that "there is someone here". After entering the door, she looked around and then walked towards the bed.
This female ghost's IQ is obviously not low. She also knew how to look under the bed. She saw the female ghost's rather large figure slowly coming to the edge of the bed, then she bent her waist straight down and tilted her head to look under the bed.
If someone chooses to have their character hide under the bed, now they're in trouble.
But this was the opportunity that Yu Xing was waiting for. When he opened the cabinet door and hid in it, he had already determined that the cabinet was not rusty. The sound of opening the door was almost silent and very slight. But now the door was wide open, and the female ghost
He has no habit of closing the door casually. This is a good opportunity for him to get out of this room!
He immediately let the pixel villain get out of the cabinet and walked quietly toward the door. Because he was decisive and fast enough, almost the moment he left the room, the background on the game console screen changed to the female ghost.
He also straightened up from the bed.
Fortunately it was not discovered.
He walked quickly and non-stop, only to see that due to the female ghost's previous violent break in, several rooms that were locked just now have now been opened, but his goal was very clear, and he did not waste time to go in and search, but immediately returned to the original route.
, went downstairs, passed through rows of benches, and returned to the confessional.
The door of the confessional has also been opened by the female ghost.
Yu Xing came to the door and triggered a new dialog box.
[Oh my God, this door seems to have been broken by a female ghost. I need to be more careful. It seems I can only squeeze through sideways. 】
The little pixel man in the game interface indeed squeezed into the confessional room bit by bit at a slow speed.
Yu Xing began to look at the layout of the confession room.
This place is different from upstairs. It is very crowded. There is an independent space separated by wood. After Pixel Ye Qin walked in, he did not trigger anything immediately.
He let the pixel villain move around and even entered the separated space, but it was as empty as the prayer hall, with only traces of decay left by the erosion of time.
There are a lot of spider webs in the prayer room. Of course, in the pixel game, the spider web is a round spider web symbol with many lines mixed together. When he looked at it, one or two small spiders crawled across the spider web.
Didn't trigger any plot?
Not even the props or files were picked up.
Yu Xing was not very willing. He felt that there shouldn't be nothing here. At least what the "I" said in the first piece of information paper should be heard by him.
【This place is very eerie, but I didn't find anything.】
[Perhaps I should look in a more valuable room? For example, the utility room. Generally speaking, the utility room always misses some clues that have not been taken away. 】
That's what Pixel Ye Qin said, but Yu Xing didn't listen.
He was thinking that all the female ghosts were looking for them in this way. Although the target was said to be him, Ye Ting and Ye Ming were not found in this blanket search, indicating that this place should have spaces similar to secret passages and secret rooms.
As for the confessional room... He had already thought that maybe he should find a priest's clothes to wear before coming here, because the person listening to "my" confession at that time was the priest, not Ye Qin.
Yu Xing listed several goals in this scary little game.
1. Find the church door.
Second, find the priest's clothes and re-enter the confessional.
Third, find out if the female ghost is afraid of anything.
Fourth, look for secret passages or secret rooms to find Ye Ting and Ye Ming who are hiding.
Taking advantage of the fact that the female ghost seemed to be still on the second floor, he decided to find the location of the church door first.
Under Yu Xing's button operation, the pixel villain began to run quickly around the first floor. The sound of his footsteps was still light, not enough to attract the attention of the female ghost who was not on the same floor.
After all, this is a small game, and the map on the surface is not big. He quickly found the hidden church door on the back of another staircase on the first floor.
To be honest, it is impossible for a church to exist in reality. If the gate is built in such a remote place, it will look very petty and unworthy of publicity.
He tried to push the door, but it turned out that he couldn't push it. The door lock had clearly signaled to him that he needed a key.
[What a shame, although I don’t know if the door leading outside the church is my attic, but at least I now have another task, which is to find the key. 】
[But is this too desperate? If I remember correctly, when I peeped at the female ghost just now, I seemed to have seen the key on her waist. 】
[Am I going to steal a female ghost? I don’t want to die yet. But if I don’t steal, who knows when I will be able to get out! Otherwise... or I should first find other living people in the church and discuss it with them.
talk later.】
Pixel Ye Qin obviously put the word "Cong Xin" in the dialog box. He didn't dare to steal the key from the female ghost, and Yu Xing... didn't dare either.
The limitations of the game operation are too great. If it were him, he would definitely show off his style bravely, but now there is only this little pixel villain, unable to fight back against the female ghost.
The matter of leaving the church directly through the gate had to be slowed down first, and for Yu Xing, doing so was meaningless. What he wanted to pursue was not to escape from the church, but to find clues.
At this moment, Yu Xing's keen eyesight found a piece of paper scattered in the corner on the back of the stairs. If he hadn't been able to see the overall situation, he might have missed it.
It should be a new clue!
He operated the pixel man and picked up the paper. Sure enough, a piece of yellowed paper popped out on the page, and the handwriting on it was very clear.
[From my observation, there are no bells in this church. Time has stayed at this moment forever. There is no doubt that I have been abandoned by this world. It is really depressing for me here. I don’t like it here at all. I think
When I go back, I don’t know how Ye Qin is doing now. Does he still remember me? Maybe, but I won’t remember it soon. My memory also begins to blur, and I don’t know how long I can stay awake. In fact, we have nothing.
What you did is wrong, why do you want to hurt us who are the victims? Wait, why do I say victims?】
This information paper only mentions Ye Qin's name. According to Yu Xing's guess, it should belong to Yu Wan.
Let's regard this piece of paper as Yu Wan's confession for the time being. Then Yu Wan is truly a paranormal enthusiast. Her thinking is much clearer than the other three people, and she has even noticed her own memory problem.
After Yu Xing read the information, the paper bounced back and disappeared, and a line of small words appeared at the top of the game screen.
[Collected information can be viewed in the data collection on the main page]
In the game, the pixel Ye Qin has gone crazy because of this piece of paper.
[What does this mean? What does this mean? Yu Wan is also here, and has she been here for a long time? Is she the person who wrote me words in blood just now? 】
[Impossible, she was clearly in school with me during the day today, how could she be here already? Then who is the person who is in class with me? What a ghost story... Can anyone tell me whether she
Safety, this is the worst case scenario, I have to go find her, hope she is still alive, she must be alive!]
Ye Qin, who has never shown his admiration for Xiang, is obviously very worried at this time. His forbearing feelings are more deadly when they explode. Even Yu Xing feels that he has some difficulty in controlling the pixel villain. The specific manifestation is that he clicks
Go right, and the villain will stay where he is. If he clicks to go left, the villain will go up...
Fortunately, this situation only lasted for a minute. After a minute, the pixel villain took the initiative to say
[I want to calm down and not get confused. The prerequisite for finding Yu Wan is that I survive in the hands of the female ghost. 】
Afterwards, Yu Xing’s control of the pixel villain became normal.
He started knocking around in the prayer hall, interacting with everything that could be interacted with, and finally found a somewhat strange place inside the pulpit.
The dialog box prompts that there seems to be a button that can be rotated. I don't know what the consequences will be if I press it.
Yu Xing felt that this was the entrance button to the secret passage, but he didn't want to know the consequences of pressing it now. The consequence would be that the female ghost heard the sound and came and cut him into pieces.
He turned back to the utility room and decided to look for anything belonging to the priest in the utility room first, preferably the priest's clothes.
The door of the utility room was also opened due to the destruction caused by the female ghost just now. As expected, this kind of mini-game did not go beyond the routine of ordinary games. The priest's clothes were placed on the table in the utility room. Yu Xing stepped forward and chose to pick up the items.
, the first grid in the toolbar is occupied by an icon that looks like a piece of clothing.
The pixel villain put on this dress and returned to the confession room again. This time, as soon as he stepped into the confession room, he heard the conversation coming from the headphones.
"Father, I confess."
"Today's funeral could have been avoided. The love of my life killed my child with his own hands and hurt innocent people."
"Now there is so much resentment in my house. They will turn into demons and return to the world. I can't let this happen. The tragedy has already happened. I must take action to prevent them from spreading fear to a wider area."
This was the voice of a middle-aged man. It was very difficult for the man to speak, and every word he spoke was as sad and painful as being cut by a knife.
Then an older and kinder voice asked the man:
"My child, what are you going to do?"
"Sorry, Father, I have to do something like the devil. I will use my own flesh and blood as a sacrifice to seal them in the house forever, including my beloved."
The old priest said: "God, do you know that you are making a deal with the devil, and God may not forgive you."
"I know, I'm sorry, Father, I know it. I don't crave God's forgiveness. You also know that I am not a believer. Compared to other people's piety, I don't care at all. As long as it can end all this, I am willing to sacrifice myself
.”
After finishing speaking, Yu Xing's earphones heard the sound of footsteps gradually fading away, as if the middle-aged man had left the confessional.
The priest was left with a faint sigh: "This will not be salvation. You will not only sacrifice yourself, but also the spirit and soul of the victim."
Up to this point, Yu Xing could no longer hear any conversation.
He lowered his eyes, thought about what he just heard, and had a certain understanding of the origin of the matter.
This should be the father of the three brothers and sisters. The true love in his mouth is his mother. The mother killed her own children and an innocent person. The innocent person should be Yu Wan.
In other words, my mother killed three siblings and Yu Wan, and then my father thought that the dead people were about to turn into ghosts. Maybe he had been harassed by ghosts after the tragedy.
In order to prevent the birth and continuation of the resentful spirit, his father used his own flesh and blood as a sacrifice to seal the resentful spirit in the house, so Yu Xing saw his father in the refrigerator twice because his father sacrificed his flesh and blood.
But in the process of sealing, he may have also sealed his mother here. This caused the three brothers and sisters who were just ghosts to live in the same room with their murderer for a long time. The fear of their mother gradually blurred the image of her in their minds.
, turned into a female ghost holding an axe.
And because of this seal, they have been wandering in the house for many years, unable to leave or escape.
Yu Xing remembered Ye Qin's psychological description on the scroll. The house was very old, but his father had never decorated it.
Perhaps that actually symbolizes that Ye Qin's ghost has been wandering in the house for many years, witnessing the house gradually being eroded by time from brand new to an old house, and his father has been dead for a long time, so of course it is impossible to care about it.
As time goes by, the three brothers and sisters in the house have a vague understanding of themselves. What they remember most is probably the "female ghost" who killed them and the funeral held in the church.
But why do they always enter from the attic when they enter the church in the spiritual world?
At that time, something special must have happened or something special must have been placed in the attic.
What exactly it is, Yu Xing still doesn't know, and he will explore it later, but it is obvious that the essence of the deduction he experienced is to save himself from the wandering ghost trapped in the house.
While Yu Xing was thinking, in the game, he heard the footsteps of the female ghost walking this way again. Because he didn't make any sound this time, the female ghost just wandered over as usual, walking slowly.
Yu Xing tried to get into the space separated by the wooden board. The female ghost came in and looked around for a while, ignored the space, and left again carrying the ax.
So far, apart from her higher hearing, this female ghost doesn't seem to have any other particularly difficult characteristics to overcome. Yu Xing can only guess that Ye Ming and Ye Ting were chased around by the female ghost in this game, either because of the plot.
Needless to say, either they are really bad at playing games, or they still have the memory of being killed by their mother in their subconscious, so they are extremely afraid of female ghosts and cannot form an effective resistance at all.
He frowned and waited for the female ghost to go away, then got out of the confessional and came to the back of the pulpit.
This time he chose to turn the button.
As expected, a very penetrating sound resounded through the headphones. Such a huge sound, let alone a female ghost, could be heard by any normal person anywhere in this church.
But what is somewhat surprising is that the sound is not the rumbling sound of the friction of building materials, but the sound of many bells shaking together, crisp and messy.
The statue began to rotate, and a secret door appeared behind the statue. Along with the sound of bells, there was the sound of chains colliding, but there were no chains on this secret door at all.
Yu Xing immediately thought of the chains and bells on the door of the master bedroom diagonally opposite his room. Once they were rung, it would probably have the same effect. Of course, the sound would never travel as far as in the game.
But the symbolic meaning contained in it is already obvious. This secret door that will attract the attention of the female ghost and start a chase symbolizes the master bedroom in the house that is surrounded by chains. Perhaps in the subconscious mind of the deduction subject, the secret door opens
The master bedroom was like opening a secret door, which meant something he didn't want to face.
Yu Xing stared at the secret door on the game screen. The female ghost had already heard the sound and saw the character he was controlling. He did not control the pixel villain to rush in, but
He quit the game.
When he pressed the exit key, an option box popped up on the screen, reminding him that the game had been archived and that the next time he started the game, he would continue from the archived location.
Yu Xing smiled.
Although it was a little simpler than expected, he had indeed found all the information he wanted to know. The secret door did exist, but there would be no Ye Ming and Ye Ting inside the secret door. This was what he thought after hearing the sound of the bell.
It was surmised in an instant.
This game has no value to him anymore. He will not open it again. What he has to do next is to survive in the world he is in now and find something that can wake up these wandering ghosts.
