Fortunately, the silence did not last long. For some unknown reason, Zhao Ping was the first to get up from the sofa, then changed the subject, pointing to the bedroom on the left and said to the exhausted Liu Dong and the other five: "It's getting late.
, I think Mr. Liu, you must be sleepy too, right? The house we are currently in is the largest one nearby. There are two bedrooms here. Since there are few of you, I suggest that the five of you rest in this room tonight. As for the other one.
How about our team sleeping in the bedroom and the living room?"
………
Zhao Ping's suggestion was reasonable and reasonable. After all, Liu Dong and the others only had 5 people, while we had 10 people. It was fair to allocate two bedrooms and one living room, so after Zhao Ping finished speaking, Liu Dong and others also nodded.
He nodded and said he had no objection. Although if 5 people were to live in a room, someone would definitely have to lay a floor. Fortunately, there were more beddings in private houses, so there was no problem in keeping out the cold. As for men and women living in the same room...
In the current situation where you don’t know whether you will be killed by a locust, who would be so bold as to take off your clothes and sleep?
"Well, it's true that we are all tired from running around all day. In that case, let's go and have a rest. I'm sorry, Mr. Zhao. We'll talk about anything tomorrow."
Because he was really tired for a long time, he nodded and agreed. Liu Dong led a few people towards the bedroom on the left. Looking at the backs of a few people, Peng Hu couldn't help but be stunned. His brows tightened at first, and then he stood up subconsciously as if he suddenly remembered something.
, subconsciously opened his mouth, looking as if he wanted to remind the five people who were about to enter the bedroom, and then...
Snap.
At this moment, before he could open his mouth, Zhao Ping quickly raised his hand and pressed it on the man's shoulder.
Peng Hu raised his head with confusion on his face and stared at Zhao Ping with doubtful eyes. However, Zhao Ping just shook his head at him with a solemn expression.
It was precisely because of this interference from the man with glasses that across the street, with a soft slam of the door, Liu Dong and five other people entered the bedroom one after another. Even if he wanted to say something, it was too late.
"you……"
Faced with such a result, the bald man would not remain silent. Unexpectedly, just when he was about to ask the other party why he stopped himself from reminding him, Chen Xiaoyao smiled beside him and forcibly disrupted his steps. He changed the topic and picked up the coffee table.
Apple: "Hey, Brother Peng, come on, come on, have some fruit to quench your thirst!"
As mentioned above, Peng Hu was stunned for a moment by being disturbed by Taoist Chen. Zhao Ping also took advantage of the situation and pointed to the right side of Chen Xiaoyao's bedroom where He Fei and Yao Fujiang were, and then pointed at the three newcomers and Qian.
Xueling ordered: "It's getting late, you all should go back to your room and rest."
Seeing the bespectacled man's order, Fang Hai and the other three were admittedly frightened, but did not dare to disobey the senior man's order. They could only stand up and leave, and finally entered the bedroom. Only Qian Xueling did not leave obediently as ordered, but sipped her lips.
Lips walked closer, came to his side, grabbed Zhao Ping's arm, and never let go!
After getting along for a long time, everyone has seen clearly many things. Everyone at the scene turned a blind eye to the beautiful woman's behavior and was accustomed to it. It is true to say that. However, when Qian Xueling grabbed Zhao Ping's arm, the other three
Still noticed that the expressionless face of the man with glasses twitched slightly... Seeing this scene, Cheng Ying did not react, while Peng Hu's expression
Nothing remained the same, only Chen Xiaoyao covered his mouth and snickered. Of course, because he had experienced this countless times, even though the corners of his mouth twitched and showed dissatisfaction, Zhao Ping still knew that once he was caught by Qian Xueling, he would be gone.
He tried to break free, but as expected, after trying to break free to no avail, the man finally gave up and sat back on the sofa as if the woman didn't exist, letting the other woman hold him with his left hand.
Some people were helpless, some were worried, some were afraid, and some were worried. It was confirmed that the five plot characters and the newcomers all returned to the bedrooms on both sides. They saw that only the seniors were left in the living room. As soon as the man with glasses sat down, Peng Hu stared at the man with a puzzled look.
He asked sternly: "Zhao Jingsheng, what do you mean? Why did you stop me from reminding them to keep vigil just now!?"
Yes, in fact, what Peng Hu wanted to say earlier was just a reminder, reminding Liu Dong and others to take turns to keep vigil when sleeping at night. However, Zhao Ping stopped him, and he was interrupted by Yao Fujiang halfway. Until now, only senior people like them are left in the living room.
, after holding it in for a long time, the bald man was able to speak out his personal worries.
Due to his bad temper, Peng Hu is currently one of the few people in the team who can get angry at a man with glasses. No one is surprised by this. Zhao Ping's reaction is indeed as expected. When questioned, glasses
The man looked indifferent and didn't seem to want to speak. Instead, Chen Xiaoyao looked at him from the side.
Acting as a peacemaker at the right time, he finally raised his eyebrows and smiled in a enlightened tone: "Hey, Brother Peng, calm down your anger, why don't you come out? Well, since Senior Zhao doesn't want to say it himself, then
Let Pindao explain it for me, it’s obvious that Senior Zhao is clearly taking advantage of these people.”
What!
As soon as Chen Xiaoyao said this, Zhang Hu was stunned for a moment, and then he stood up from the sofa with a sudden reaction, staring at Zhao Ping with angry eyes. Although this move seemed sudden, in fact, the removal of Qian Xueling on the scene was a bit complicated.
Despite the panic, the others were all calm as usual, Cheng Ying was expressionless, Zhao Ping was silent, and Chen Xiaoyao still kept smiling, as if he expected Peng Hu to have this reaction.
Next…
Facing the silence of everyone, or perhaps planning to continue scolding Peng Hu, after seeing everyone's reaction, for some reason, the man finally swallowed his words and sat back on the sofa. While suppressing his dissatisfaction, he lowered his voice and asked: "What are you doing?
Can you do this kind of thing? Those people are real people like us..."
Obviously, Peng Hu understood and understood the other party's intention. Even so, he still did not agree with this kind of approach. As for Zhao Ping...
After listening to what Peng Hu said, he glanced around the living room across from the sofa to confirm that there was no one else around. The man with glasses responded slowly and logically. Under the gaze of everyone, he said something that did not answer the question: "Through Liu Dong and several people earlier,
Narration, I don’t think I need to say that everyone already knows that this time the murder is not simple. The killing method is extremely weird and cruel.
To the extreme, it is no exaggeration to say that the killing method of this bug is the most bizarre of all the tasks that the executor has experienced so far. There is no logic at all, and there are almost no similar references from previous supernatural tasks. In Lenovo
Then the wolf has the ability to kill all the residents of a town in just one night, isn't everyone afraid?"
"Um."
The next part of the answer was not what the question was asked, and the atmosphere changed. After a few seconds, Cheng Ying reacted and turned to Zhao Ping: "Tell me what you think."
Nodding, he raised his hand to adjust his gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose. The bespectacled man answered truthfully without hesitation, and directly stated the results of his personal analysis not long ago:
"Through the previous narrations of Liu Dong and five people, we have now learned the identity of the creature. If nothing else happens, its identity should be the woman in the pink skirt in the video. No, it may be more appropriate to call her the woman in the pink skirt.
Of course, this is not the important point.
The point is that before choosing to kill someone, the female hawk will deliberately let the victim see 'her'. This is the first meeting between the victim and the female hawk. I personally understand this as a death notice, which is equivalent to the female hawk giving the victim an order.
Death notice."
At this point, he looked around and saw several people thinking thoughtfully. He continued: "Issuing a death notice is equivalent to a death sentence for the victim. We will definitely meet again later. After a period of time, I will treat him the next time we meet."
Understood as an ultimatum, until the third time comes, and once the third encounter, the victim
It will die instantly, disintegrate and shatter on its own without encountering any attack, and then turn into a pile of broken corpses. If you understand it from a normal perspective, it should not be difficult to defend against the pink-skirted ladybug. After all, the pink-skirted ladybug is not like other supernatural beings.
The turtles in the mission will attack immediately when they see a living person, but the opponent will not immediately attack the prey.
, I will give you a notice first to prepare you for death. Unfortunately, all the above are only superficial phenomena. The horror contained in them can be understood if you think about it carefully. In fact, the killing logic of the pink-skirted female beetle is the same as what we found in Hoi An City.
There are some similarities between the WeChat women I have encountered. Please note that the similarities here are only for killing people.
Logic rather than killing methods, WeChat women will first send a text message to the victim before killing, telling the victim exactly when to take his life. However, even so, strictly speaking, there is no difference between pink skirt women and WeChat women.
But they are completely different and have no similarities, let alone the mission in Hoi An City as a reference."
Zhao Ping's analysis made the four people around him both surprised and curious. They were surprised because they didn't expect the man with glasses to draw so many guesses from the narrative of the characters in the plot. What they were curious about was what the other party was going to say next.
Sure enough, after witnessing the reactions of several people, Zhao Ping did not give in. He picked up the water cup on the table, took a sip and continued his analysis: "When the WeChat girl sets a time to kill, once the time arrives, the WeChat girl will strictly abide by it and show up on time.
Thereby attacking the victim, but during the attack, the victim can still escape or use props to resist. However... the pink skirt girl is different. After the girl issued two death notices, the victim met for the third time.
You will die instantly!"
"Remember, it was an instant death, without any warning, it was torn apart into a pile of corpses on the spot. The victim didn't even have a tenth of a second to react! If you have to explain it in further detail, it can be understood that only when someone sees a woman
Well, then this person is already dead! There is no point in escaping anywhere, it is meaningless, and with instant death, resistance is out of the question."
After the bespectacled man said this analysis, everyone present shivered collectively, as if the temperature in the living room had suddenly dropped. It was extremely cold, and the hair on several people's hair stood on end. They were shivering from the cold.
In fact?
In fact, the ambient temperature has not dropped. On the contrary, the environment here is still sultry. Even so, at this moment, several people in the room actually feel the cold as if falling into an ice cellar. They feel the coldness. Their limbs are so cold that they feel cold. There is a very good reason.
Simple, that is... just now, Zhao Ping's analysis just hit everyone's biggest worry!
When Liu Dong and others narrated their encounters, not only Zhao Ping but also senior people felt an inexplicable sense of crisis from the strange way Ma Zhilong died. Now Zhao Ping has just spoken out everyone's biggest worry.
, directly exposed completely without any scruples.
Ignoring the reactions of others, Zhao Ping did not doubt that he was there, did not add any ink, and was about to continue speaking. However, at this moment, opposite the sofa, Cheng Ying, who had been silent for a long time, whispered before him and spoke directly.
A word, a rather short word:
"rule."
………
Rules, as the name suggests, refer to provisions that must be followed under certain circumstances. They are a kind of restriction. They can also prove that within this limited framework, no matter who you are, they can only be restricted and it is difficult or impossible to violate them.
"rule……"
When Cheng Ying suddenly said a word that many people understood but was still a bit abrupt at the moment, she was stunned. The professional killer successfully attracted the surrounding eyes to herself. Their eyes were complex and had different expressions, some were surprised and some were puzzled. As for Cheng Ying,
Sakura, because she doesn't like to be the center of attention, took the initiative to explain herself without waiting for others to ask: "It's just a personal guess. It's a word that came to mind subconsciously after listening to Zhao Ping's analysis. It's just based on feelings.
think."
Cheng Ying explained truthfully, but it did not mean that everyone present would not care. Maybe she thought of something from the word 'rules', and Zhao Ping frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.
Half a minute later, the man with glasses looked at Cheng Ying and said: "No, I don't think the word 'rules' is meaningless. There is a saying in psychology that when a person encounters certain problems, his first subconscious is often the most real.
Believable, it is also the most instinctive knowledge that is closest to reality. In addition, you just mentioned the rules and successfully reminded me, giving me a multi-layered understanding of the pink-skirted lady, and more guesses."
"Oh? Tell me!"
After hearing what the other party said, leaving aside what Cheng Ying was about, Peng Hu instantly became interested and hurriedly stretched his neck to urge him.
Although Zhao Ping nodded, he did not immediately tell his personal guess. Instead, he turned his head silently under the puzzled looks of Peng Hu, Cheng Ying and Qian Xueling, shifted his vision inexplicably, and finally looked straight at someone.
A certain arrogant young man wearing a shit-yellow coat.
"Eh? Senior Zhao, what are you looking at me doing? Is there something wrong with my face?"
Ignoring the other party's nonsense and staring for a moment, Zhao Ping asked Chen Xiaoyao a question: "If... the female locust enters this house, is there any way for you to sense or detect the other party's traces?"
When the question came out, Chen Xiaoyao was stunned, his face showed confusion, and a question mark appeared above his head.
Yes, he did not expect that the man with glasses would ask such a question out of nowhere, and this question was indeed not related to the topic just now. Of course, doubts were doubts, and confusion was confusion. When faced with the man's question, the young man was still silent.
After a moment, he told the truth, pondered for a moment, and finally touched his chin and replied: "Well, how should I put it, for me personally?
Generally speaking, there are many answers to this question. Under normal circumstances, I can use methods such as spreading black rice or sticking Tao charms to sense it. As long as I am not too far away from the location where the charm is posted, I can indeed do it.
I can sense spirits. However, due to my limited Taoism, the specific range of perception is not large. One house is already the limit, and..."
First he paused, then glanced at everyone thoughtfully, and finally shrugged and added: "And the stronger the worm, the harder it is for me to perceive it. To give a simple example, I can easily sense the soul. The ordinary lone soul worm
The charm is the same as me with the Taoist magic weapon
It can be found quickly, but it is a bit difficult and uncertain to reach the level of Li Qi. I can’t even guarantee that I can detect the traces of some particularly powerful Li Qi. As for Li Qi and above... having said so much, everyone
You should understand what I mean."
After Chen Xiaoyao finished his remarks, which were both an evaluation of his personal ability and an answer to Zhao Ping, he somehow seemed to hear some hints of Ni Duan. Cheng Ying looked curious and asked first: "You just said Li Qi will go ahead."
"Up, what do you mean? Does it mean that there are stronger ones above Li Qi?"
As soon as these words came out, Peng Hu, Zhao Ping and Qian Xueling all raised their heads as if they had thought of something, and cast suspicious eyes on this Maoshan Taoist priest who was pretending to be a god all day long.
Sure enough, he saw everyone present staring at him. Unlike Cheng Ying, Taoist Chen, who liked to perform in front of others, really enjoyed being watched by everyone. He didn't need to continue to ask questions. He lifted his hair from his forehead and grinned.
, when he was proud of himself, the young man immediately started to show off his Taoist knowledge.
"Hehe, it is said that Taoists are divided into three, six or nine levels, so why not Ji? The difference is that people's three, six or nine levels are only divided by status, while Qi's three, six or nine levels are divided by strength."
After leaving a preface, Chen Xiaoyao continued: "I have said many times in the past that although there are beetles in the world, they are basically dominated by souls that can be seen everywhere and a small number of lonely souls. Even the beetles are very rare. As for the powerful ones,
Locusts are so rare that they can only be counted on one finger, so in reality, locusts can bring disaster to one party in most cases.
At the end of the day, it’s Li Qi. After all, Li Qi’s strength is there. Everyone knows that Li Qi’s strength is incredible. It’s easier to kill people than to kill chickens. However, if you have to force a generalization, if you insist on seeking truth from facts, it’s strict.
Speaking of which, there is actually a more powerful dragon above Li Qi, and that is... the earth-bound spirit!"
"Earthbound Spirit!"
As soon as Chen Xiaoyao finished speaking, he still didn't know why, but the atmosphere suddenly changed, becoming weird and suspicious. Not only that, after hearing this, Peng Hu, Cheng Ying and Qian Xueling couldn't help but repeat the words "Earth-bound Spirit"
'Three words, at the same time,
A terrible memory that was unforgettable for several people also suddenly appeared in their minds and penetrated deep into their bones. Only Chen Xiaoyao did not doubt that he was there. He just regarded the reactions of several people as curiosity and he still talked endlessly. However, just when he was planning to continue
While explaining...
Zhao Ping waved his hand to stop, interrupted the young man's speech, and then said to several people with a solemn expression: "Let's not mention this for now. I just came up with a test method, but it requires everyone's approval and cooperation."
After being so disturbed by the man with glasses, he suddenly came to his senses. Everyone who was in danger now knew where their primary focus should be, and Zhao Ping's words really made them forget about the previous topic.
They all looked at each other, as if they didn't quite understand what the other person said. They touched the stubble on their chins, raised their eyebrows and asked, "How? What method?"
Zhao Ping remained calm and continued to answer the question as he did in the beginning, with unclear words: "Not to mention the strange ability of the pink-skirted girl, there is one detail that I don't know if you have noticed, that is, two of Liu Dong's group have already died.
"
For a moment, Chen Xiaoyao lived up to his expectations and looked puzzled. Then he took the lead and spoke in a puzzled tone: "Liu Dong's side did have two dead people, one named Ma Zhilong and the other named Liu Chuanfa. But what does this mean?"
What? Isn’t it normal for hawks to kill people?”
As if he had expected this answer from the other party, Zhao Ping shook his head and continued to remind: "Qi did kill someone, but the two people who died were both members of Liu Dong's team."
As the saying goes, half of the words are not fully understood, and no one present is stupid. Finally, as the man with glasses mentioned it again 'deliberately', Cheng Ying was the first to understand. She narrowed her eyes slightly and raised her head to stare.
, with his eyes suddenly clear, he asked in a low voice: "Could it be that you mean..."
"Well, although the pink-skirted female locust is as murderous as other locusts, through my personal observation and the rule reminder you just said, I suddenly discovered something, that is, the ones who died so far seem to be from Liu Dong's side.
People, so I guessed that the killings of this turtle were not necessarily random killings or killing whoever was caught, but most likely killing according to certain rules or even a certain order!"
"If the judgment is correct, it is estimated that Qi will kill Liu Dong's group before it is our group's turn. Of course, what I just mentioned was only the order of the team. As for whether the personnel will also be killed in order...
Then I can’t guarantee it.”
Rules, order!
No one expected that after a conversation, Zhao Ping not only analyzed a lot, but also came to an astonishing conclusion in the end!
It was like lightning flashed through my mind, like an electric current sweeping through my body. After hearing this, everyone in the living room was shocked. After careful consideration, it seemed that there was some truth. If the guess was correct, what would happen next could be predicted. Let’s not talk about other things.
, at least the executioner's side should be relatively safe before all five of Liu Dong's people died. But on second thought, everyone still hesitated and had doubts. They were worried that they did not get a definite answer from the other party's words. After all, even Zhao Ping himself
They all say that the above remarks are just their personal speculations.
The atmosphere changed again, and my thoughts shifted accordingly.
At this moment, watching the changing expressions of everyone in front of him, Zhao Ping chose to remain silent and did not continue to speak. It seemed like this. However, Peng Hu, who had been trying to figure out the other party's intentions, obviously did not intend to accompany the other party in silence. I wonder if he thought of something during this period.
Gradually, the bald man's expression gradually darkened, he raised his head slightly, and finally said half a sentence to Zhao Ping in a tentative tone, half a sentence that was unfinished but full of surprise: "You don't want to..."
"
Staring at Peng Hu's face, Zhao Ping adjusted his glasses and immediately replied in a calm tone, an answer that would make anyone who heard it feel chilling in their hearts:
"It's just speculation at the moment, and there is insufficient evidence, so I need to observe in the near future, carefully observe Liu Dong's group, and observe their pre-death signs and... the order of death!"
