At the beginning of the game, he had attached a perception-type Taoist talisman to the statue. After finishing it, he left the villa to look for the motor. But strangely, while Chen Xiaoyao was charging, once the talisman was attached, it
The talisman equivalent to the tape is separated from the statue. With the help of the talisman
The unique perception between him and the caster, the matter was noticed by Chen Xiaoyao, and Chen Xiaoyao himself returned to the villa without stopping. As a result, nothing happened, nothing happened. The villa was still the same villa, and the statue was still the same statue, except
The extremely sticky talisman fell to the ground.
"...That's pretty much what happened. Since the statue has always been erected in the living room of the villa, and I really can't find the reason why the Taoist talisman fell off, I have no choice but to give up."
The above is all Chen Xiaoyao's personal experience. Although the experience is overall uneventful, it is precisely this experience that proves that he has always cared about the statue and is the most wary of the statue among all the executors. In fact, it is not surprising that he cares so much. After all, the black
The robed skeleton and the statue are so similar, they are almost identical, and anyone with some brains will always subconsciously connect the two. The connection is certain.
, However, it is a pity that from the beginning to the present, the statue has not disappeared or changed. It has been displayed in the living room of the villa like an ordinary sculpture from beginning to end. Faced with such an unquestionable reality, no matter how vigilant or concerned Chen Xiaoyao is,
He could only be forced to admit it, forced to finally admit like other enforcers that the black-robed skeleton was a black-robed skeleton, and the skull statue was a skeleton statue, and there was no relationship between the two.
Since it didn't matter, Chen Xiaoyao gradually became less vigilant and less concerned, and gradually left the villa statue behind. It wasn't until Tang Meng mentioned the matter just now that Chen Xiaoyao recalled the past again and explained the previous experience.
As for Tang Meng...
(Isn’t the black-robed skeleton transformed from the statue? And the statue has been displayed in the living room of the villa until now. If this is the case, then my earliest original conjecture can be ruled out, and then like Chen Xiaoyao, I admit that the statue and the black-robed skeleton are different.
There is not much connection between them. The two should be independent of each other, just similar in appearance.)
(Having said that, the similarity in appearance is not a connection?)
(As for the specific contact...)
(Damn it, I can’t think of it, I can’t analyze it!)
It was like throwing a huge stone into a calm lake. After listening to Chen Xiaoyao's narration of the past, Tang Meng did not react. She just frowned and remained silent as before. During the silence, the female doctor's brain was running and she was working.
Continuously, like a motor filled with fuel, it is running continuously.
Driven by it, although the thinking content of the brain cannot be peeked by others, Cheng Ying still noticed from the more and more beads of sweat on Tang Meng's forehead. As expected, Tang Meng must be analyzing the problem and trying his best to find it.
The only regret about that mission path that has long been hidden by a curse is...
Because she is only good at psychological analysis of human beings, it is true that Tang Meng's brain is currently running fast and analyzing, but her face is pale and sweating profusely, as if she is exhausted, there is no problem, because it is her first time to analyze problems that she has never dealt with before.
The pressure on her, who was only good at psychological analysis, increased. She sweated more and more on her forehead. In the end, her body trembled and shook slightly!
This is an obvious sign of exhaustion due to overuse of the brain!
Observing this, Cheng Ying was shocked and was about to intervene forcibly to let her rest, but...
Just when she was about to stop Tang Meng from continuing to think, beside her, Chen Xiaoyao, who had been looking left and right, began to mutter to himself, and murmured to himself in a low voice but still clearly in the night:
"Curse of the dog's sun, you Tamar are really a master of planning. You designed this mission so perfectly. You actually hid the way out so deeply. I drew up..."
Cheng Ying did not hear the subsequent series of fragrant breaths, but she did hear the previous sentence, Chen Xiaoyao's emotional soliloquy. However, who would have thought that it was exactly this sentence, this sentence?
To Chen Xiaoyao and to anyone else, this sentence sounded like a vent of anger.
Cheng Ying's soliloquy struck Cheng Ying like a bolt of lightning flashing across the sky, reminding her. In this way, a window was opened for her by chance, a window that could prompt her to
She helped Tang Meng change her mind through the window of hope!!!
……………
Time is an invisible material thing that can neither be seen nor touched. Perhaps other creatures don't care much about time or even don't notice it, but intelligent humans are creatures that pay attention to time, especially those who are currently trapped in the manor.
For the executors, time has become the best accomplice for the curse to obliterate them.
The Escape to Ascension game is in progress, the time is 4:02 in the morning, and there are 58 minutes left before the end of the game!
Southwest of the abandoned manor, near the garage.
In the dilapidated and desolate night, Tang Meng frowned and was covered with sweat. She was obviously keeping her brain thinking, reasoning and analyzing under the same silent gaze of Cheng Ying. Even though Tang Meng was not good at analyzing and reasoning things, she still kept thinking frequently.
Try, try to find a way out before the end of the game. After all, some things have to be done by someone. This is not only related to Tang Meng's personal life,
It is also related to the life and death of all teammates in the manor, and time has entered an extremely dangerous final stage. Time is running out, and there is no room for her to be slow and orderly. If she cannot find the hidden way out before 5 o'clock,
At that time, everyone, including Tang Meng himself, will be wiped out, and the collective will melt into water like an ice cream exposed by the sun.
Under the pressure of crisis, Tang Meng has tried her best. In order to obtain clues, she even deliberately took risks and hid on the road closest to Qi to secretly observe and collect information. Relying on this extraordinary courage, Tang Meng had a clue.
Part of the harvest, from the behavior and appearance of the black-robed skeleton
The most obvious point is exactly what Cheng Ying originally judged. As the game time went by, the black-robed skeletons changed their strategies. The black-robed skeletons that initially focused on killing were no longer simply full of blood.
The manor was looking for someone to kill, but instead
The focus is on the motor level. By now it is obvious that the machine power is frequently reduced. The skeleton has basically given up on finding people, and then plans to use time to kill people, making it clear that everyone will be wiped out by the rules. As for how to use the rules to kill people.
Or? It's very simple. Just take good care of the motor that is the only one connected to the outlet. Do not let the machine be fully charged under any circumstances. As long as the time keeps dragging on, it won't take long before the executor will reach 5 o'clock.
Lose the game for a moment, and be easily wiped out by the rules in the end.
What a vicious man! He actually knows how to kill someone with a borrowed knife! He is trying to use the game time that is about to end to destroy the whole army of executors in disguise!
This was Tang Meng's first analysis and judgment after discovering that the black-robed skeleton was interested in the motor. As for another discovery...
She locked the identity of the creature. Through the secret observation just now and Chen Xiaoyao's own narration, Tang Meng has confirmed that the black-robed skeleton is exactly the same as the skeleton statue displayed in the villa, and then further concluded that there must be something between the two.
Contact, as long as she can crack that connection, maybe she can find a way out, find the way out that is covered by misguided thinking, a hidden way out that can really allow everyone to escape from the manor!
As for how to crack it?
She couldn't think of it, couldn't find it, it was like there was a wall blocking her. No matter how hard Tang Meng racked her brains, she could never get around the wall or continue her thoughts!
In fact, strictly speaking, this is not the fault of Tang Meng, nor is it the fault that her thoughts are blocked and difficult to analyze, but because of her professional expertise. As a professional psychologist, what Tang Meng is good at is only the analysis of human thinking, but not the analysis of the direction of events.
The limitations are obvious and the results can be imagined.
Because his thoughts were severely blocked, Tang Meng, who was already running his brain for forced analysis, gradually broke out in sweat, his face gradually turned pale, and in the end, his body trembled and shook slightly!
Seeing the woman's abnormal condition, Cheng Ying, who had been observing her closely, was suddenly shocked. She was about to ask the woman to rest, but at this moment, she found hope and was inspired by Chen Xiaoyao's casual murmur.
, and what represents inspiration is...
Under the cover of night, after listening to Chen Xiaoyao's muttering to himself, he was stunned for only a few seconds. The next moment, Cheng Ying moved, walked straight to Tang Meng, and then said something to the other party, which made Tang Meng freeze instantly.
Important tips:
"Sister Tang Meng, if you were cursed, how would you design this mission? Where would you arrange your escape? Or...can you analyze the psychology of the curse?"
(Eh?)
It was like the wall in front of him collapsed on its own in an instant. As Cheng Ying finished speaking, Tang Meng was stunned on the other side. After listening to Cheng Ying's prompt, he was stunned on the spot as if he had been struck by lightning, and his mind was shocked.
It set off waves of turmoil!
(If you specifically analyze curses? Analyze the psychology of curses? Could it be that Cheng Ying means...)
Ding!
Tang Meng understood, instantly. As soon as she listened to Cheng Ying's pointed reminder, the female doctor's heart beat wildly and she suddenly woke up, and Cheng Ying's reminder hit the wall like a heavy hammer.
In an instant, the thick wall that was blocking his thoughts was smashed. As the obstacle was cleared, Tang Meng's expression changed in the next moment. He broke free from the mental barrier that he had been stuck in earlier, and his thoughts suddenly became clear!
Yes, in fact, the answer is already clear after seeing this, and the reason why Cheng Ying was able to help Tang Meng get rid of the mental barrier was precisely Chen Xiaoyao's seemingly meaningless soliloquy. It is true that it does not mean much to others, but
Cheng Ying was inspired by the young Taoist priest's self-talk, that is...
Just now, Chen Xiaoyao mentioned the curse, and in an angry tone he mentioned the fundamental fact that the curse was the one who planned it!
Although Curse is not a human being, Curse exists after all. He is also a layout master who is equivalent to a psychological master in the eyes of the executor, and supernatural tasks have always been constructed and created by Curse. In this case, then simply treat Curse as a person.
As a behind-the-scenes planner, let Tang Meng, who is good at psychological analysis, analyze the psychology of curses and try to analyze the problem from the perspective of curses!
The above is Cheng Ying's true intention, and Tang Meng suddenly realized it with the help of Cheng Ying's advice. He suddenly realized that he had been trying to get into trouble and was stuck in a blind corner of his thinking. Yes, since he was not good at being like the captain.
If you analyze the situation like that, then you might as well not analyze the situation at all, and go directly to analyze the psychology of the curse, and analyze the layout of the curse!!!
Sure enough, as Cheng Ying's reminder ended, Tang Meng's mind was completely opened up. Without even bothering to express her gratitude to Cheng Ying, Tang Meng was immersed in her thoughts again. And it is worth mentioning that because her thinking perspective has changed, this time,
Tang Meng no longer analyzes the situation from the perspective of the executor, but formally analyzes the cursed psychology as an excellent psychiatrist!
Cheng Ying's deliberate reminder and Tang Meng's change of expression were all seen by Chen Xiaoyao. As a smart man, Tang Meng could understand the truth, so why didn't Chen Xiaoyao understand? Not only did he understand, he even guessed what Cheng Ying was from.
After thinking about this, Chen Xiaoyao grinned and gave Cheng Ying a thumbs up without hesitation. He was about to praise the other party when he saw Cheng Ying immediately lowered her head after reminding Tang Meng and looked down at her watch.
.
Perhaps he noticed it from Cheng Ying's rapid movements. Seeing the female killer's face nervously checking the time, Chen Xiaoyao was affected. Chen Xiaoyao also followed the same example and subconsciously lowered his head to check his watch. The result...
It turned out that it was okay not to look at it. As soon as they lowered their heads, or in other words, the moment they looked at the watch, both Cheng Ying and Chen Xiaoyao's pupils shrank suddenly, and their expressions changed drastically!
With the help of the moonlight in the sky, as far as the eye can see, the clock hand is already pointing to 4:30 in the morning!!!
At 4:30, the game ends with half an hour left. What does this mean? It means that the executor only has half an hour left before death! There is not much time left for them. If they cannot leave the manor within half an hour,
At that time, everyone will be wiped out as the black-robed skeleton wishes, and then turned into a pool of blood!
(Oops!)
After looking at the time, Cheng Ying's expression changed drastically, and Chen Xiaoyao also turned pale! They were all frightened by the cruel passage of time, and their hairs stood on end, and their livers and gallbladders burst into tears. Cold sweat suddenly appeared on their foreheads, and soon fell like rain.
The hair on their faces kept dripping to the ground. It is true that both of them are courageous veterans.
, if you are serious, you are not even afraid of death. Although the truth is correct, the problem is that this time is different. This time the death crisis is different. What we are facing this time is obliteration, and how painful is obliteration? As the elders of the team, they
But we know better than anyone that that kind of death is thousands of times more terrifying than the torture in hell!!!
Thinking of the upcoming punishment of obliteration, Chen Xiaoyao, who was not afraid of death but did not want to melt into water, suddenly panicked and did not bother to wipe the sweat on his forehead. As soon as he looked at the time, Chen Xiaoyao suddenly raised his head and looked at Cheng Ying, trembling in his mouth.
Shivering, he said: "Ah, time, there is still time..."
"Shut up! Don't talk!".
Chen Xiaoyao's panic reminder was forcibly interrupted by Cheng Ying, and the reason that prompted her to scold him to keep quiet was Tang Meng, the psychiatrist next to him who was still deeply immersed in his own thoughts!
This is not only the last critical moment, but also the last fight that affects everyone's life and death. She must not be disturbed under any circumstances!
As for Tang Meng...
As if she has already ignored time, at this moment, the female doctor is immersed in her own world, a thinking world that only exists for her. In this world, Tang Meng is currently searching and analyzing, as if she has never seen anything before.
Focus on doing your best!
Because his way of thinking has changed, Tang Meng solved the contradictory issue that blocked his way just now, that is, what is the connection between the black-robed skeleton and the skull statue!
(If I am a curse, then how should I arrange a way out while ensuring that the way out must exist? First of all, I will not completely hide the way out. If it is really completely hidden, then the completely hidden way out cannot be called
Finding a way out is not a matter of immortality.
The traveler cannot find it without any clues, so if I am a curse, I will definitely hide some clues while hiding the way out, and then hint to the executor in some way. As for that representative
What does the road to life imply...)
(There is no doubt that the hint must be a skull statue, and it can only be a skull statue!)
(The reason is equally simple. After all, the manor itself is extremely dilapidated, and everything inside is ordinary. Except for the 10 generators used to mislead the executioner's thinking and judgment, the manor as a whole is ordinary, and there are few things that attract attention.
The only thing that attracts attention is that
That weird-shaped skull statue, and the shape of the turtle is exactly the same as the statue, so can I understand that this is a hint? The curse is using the dual method of the statue and the turtle to hint at the key points of the executor? And Shengluji
Maybe it has something to do with the skull statue?)
(Well, due to the lack of evidence, let’s just regard the skull statue as the key point connecting the path to survival for the time being. Now that we have determined that the skull statue is related to the path to survival, the next step is to directly lock in the key, which is the meaning of the existence of the skull statue!)
(Besides representing a way out, what is the other meaning of the statue? In other words, why does the curse have to design the statue and even the supervisor who plays the role of a supervisor to resemble the Western God of Death? Curse, you do this?
What’s the purpose?)
The analysis went smoothly after the female doctor introduced the curse thought, and the curse intention also gradually became clear in Tang Meng's psychological analysis, becoming increasingly clear, but...
Although it is clear, it is clear, but in many cases people's knowledge is limited. No matter how outstanding you are in psychological analysis, some issues you do not understand will still become a roadblock or stumbling block that hinders the progress of your analysis. At times like this
, smart people often do not force themselves to think about it, but will immediately find someone to find the answer.
"Cheng Ying, and Chen Xiaoyao, how much do you two know about the Western God of Death?"
Um?
Suddenly, while Cheng Ying and Chen Xiaoyao were spreading out on both sides to observe and alert, Tang Meng, who had been thinking with his head down, suddenly raised his head and asked the two people an incomprehensible question.
The problem of death seems to have nothing to do with the way of life.
"Here, I, Sister Tang Meng, don't look at me. I know nine out of ten about Western culture, but I know nothing!" Sure enough, let's not talk about why Tang Meng asked such an unclear question. When he saw the female doctor
Looking at himself with a questioning look, Chen Xiaoyao was suddenly embarrassed. He shook his head wildly to express his ignorance. In fact, it was true. Because he had been living in remote mountains all year round, Chen Xiaoyao had become a person who was both familiar with Eastern culture and proficient in it under the careful guidance of his master.
The Maoshan Taoist priest in Chinese legend, but his understanding of Western culture is shallow, so shallow that it is almost equivalent to nothing. If you ask about the King of Yama, Taoist Chen will definitely talk about it with foam at the mouth, and he can tell you from the Ten Palaces of Yama
Luo talked about the Five Hundred Judges in one breath, and even explained the names of the Five Hundred Judges and their past and present lives clearly! However, at this moment, faced with the question of the God of Death that obviously belonged to Western legends, Taoist Chen was dumbfounded on the spot!
Fortunately, nothing is absolute. When Chen Xiaoyao shook his head in embarrassment and expressed ignorance, when Tang Meng subconsciously looked at Cheng Ying again, at the international killer who traveled all over the world and even spoke four languages, she got the answer.
, just for a moment, Cheng Ying nodded as if she had noticed something and responded: "Well, I have some understanding of Western culture. Regarding the God of Death, I can explain it briefly. Of course, I am only speaking from a Western perspective.
The angle will explain it to you.”
"The God of Death, as the name suggests, refers to the god who controls death. He is also one of the gods that has been popular in Europe from ancient times to the present. The God of Death lives in Hades. He looks like a skeleton wearing a black robe and holds a large gun in his hand.
to the exaggerated giant scythe. It is said that the scythe has the ability to take away the soul of any human or other life, while the God of Death is completely in charge of the lifespan and death of all living things in the world. This is rumored, but it is true.
Except for the dead, living people cannot see the God of Death. The appearance of the God of Death is just a rumor that has been circulated since ancient times. In fact, the appearance of the God of Death is not important. What is important is the essential meaning of the God of Death. If you exclude
Rumors only look at the essence, and the God of Death may not necessarily have a body, because it is a law in itself, a worldly law that represents death, which is the final death that no one can escape."
In order to save the world as much as possible, in the face of Tang Meng's sudden question, Cheng Ying kept it short and explained to him in the simplest and clearest way what death is and the essential definition of death. In the same way, it was with the help of Cheng Ying's
Tang Meng understood this explanation, and now solved the key question that blocked his thoughts, that is...
The meaning of death!
The meaning of the God of Death is death, which is the endless darkness that loses life in the eyes of humans. Darkness represents despair, the despair of no life. Since this is the logic, then the curse deliberately designed the sculpture to look like the God of Death. It can be explained.
The appearance designed to resemble the God of Death can also be explained. This is a metaphor, foreshadowing the dark ending that humans must accept no matter what. Facing the God of Death, unless God comes in person, everyone will die, and the ending for everyone will always be
Death, the difference is nothing more than sooner or later.
but!
Just like everything in the world often has two sides, just like the day is always night, the two ends of Tai Chi are always yin and yang. Although the curse uses a death statue to imply that the executor will eventually die, it also uses
This allusion reminds the executor, and then provides the executor with a hint of a way out of the manor!
