"I see... are the five senses gradually losing..." Mr. Cat said thoughtfully: "No wonder I felt something was wrong from the beginning... This should be directly related to the degree of unity between the spirit and the body. As time goes by,
Your other senses will also be lost. My spiritual power is stronger than yours, so I was affected later. It hasn't shown up yet, but it will be a matter of time."
Wang Xu pointed at his nose and said, "Why am I okay?"
"Of course it's the power of domination. Is it because you are handsome?"
"Tch..." Wang Xu brushed his hair with his hands and styled it...
Qi Bing asked: "But Wang Xu is just like us. His spiritual awareness, Taoist skills and other abilities have been completely weakened in this space. Why is he not affected by the loss of facial features here?"
Mr. Cat said: "What weakens our ability is the barrier of God, which is force majeure. As for this forest that captures people's five senses..." He thought for a while: "I understand, this is a 'formation', some kind of Western
The formation is similar to our Eastern Qimen Dunjia, but of course there are some differences."
He turned back to Wang Xu and said, "You passed through this forest in your dream, right?"
Wang Xu nodded.
Master Cat then asked: "Did you notice anything wrong?"
"Well... if I have to say it, apart from the smell of corpses in the trees, this place feels very big, much bigger than it looks from the outside."
Cat Master said: "That's right, I also noticed that this small forest just surrounds the high ground, and the overall coverage area may be similar to that of a relatively large park in our urban area. We only passed through one side,
It is impossible to walk for so long and still be inside, so the conclusion is that we are going in circles...
I think the function of this array is to trap people who come in. The longer it takes, the less sense the people inside will have, and in the end they will become walking zombies without five senses."
He then said to Wang Xu: "From now on, you will lead the way."
Wang Xu replied: "Is there any difference?"
"Of course there is. Only you can go out. The route you take is the closest to a 'straight line'. But Qi Bing and I will go in circles without knowing it."
Wang Xu didn't ask anymore, because he noticed that Qi Bing's expression was different, and maybe that feeling was about to disappear again, so he shut his mouth and hurried to the front. Master Mao and Qi Bing quickly followed. The three of them.
After walking for a while, I found the exit quickly and could vaguely see a path extending upward.
Almost as soon as he walked out of the woods, Qi Bing relaxed: "I feel restored. It seems that the woods are really a formation."
Mr. Cat said: "This is a very vicious formation. Those trees that emit the smell of corpses are actually people who have walked into this forest... They have lost all their feelings, but they are still walking, trying to escape from this forest.
But that was no longer possible. In the end, they became part of the formation, and their resentment and despair became the energy to maintain the formation; where we can't see, these trees are always moving, because the dead souls want to
There is only one thing to do, that is to go out... So in this forest that is constantly moving and changing, new people who come in will lose their way. Even leaving marks along the way is of no use, and then there will be new dead... Therefore, this
It is an almost indestructible formation, and the souls trapped inside will be tortured forever."
Wang Xu said: "Tch...what's the use of speaking eloquently? You're the heir of Dunjia Heavenly Book. Why don't you rely on me at the critical moment?"
Master Mao was not angry, but looked at Wang Xu with sympathetic eyes: "Qi Men Dun Jia is a science that has existed since the Yin and Shang Dynasties. It has a rigorous system and can be learned by any ordinary person.
Yes, although the original complete version has almost been lost, it actually existed.
As for the formation just now, as well as things like barriers and ghost realms, they need to be formed with the help of power that ordinary people do not have. That is not science, but ability.
I am just using a person with convenient abilities to fight against another ability. Your criticism of me is meaningless. It is an unreasonable request for me to use knowledge to fight against abilities."
After being justly despised, Wang Xu did not continue to argue, because at this time they had arrived at the door of the ancient house. When they came to the house during the day, they no longer had that gloomy feeling. The three of them exchanged
After a glance, they all came in.
The scene in the house was the same as Wang Xu's dream. Everything was normal. The furniture in the front hall was well arranged and could even be said to be spotless. The three of them discussed it for a while and decided to search separately.
The house was quite large, with many rooms, including a dining room, a tea room, a storage room, a basement, and a toilet. After inspection, everything seemed normal. So the three of them returned to the front hall and prepared to go up to the second floor to take a look.
"The second floor should be full of bedrooms. First, take us to the room where the murder occurred." Master Cat said.
Wang Xu hesitated for a moment, walked up the stairs, and led the two of them through the corridor to the door of the room. In his dream last night, he woke up right here.
"If there is a situation... you have to cover me..." Wang Xu put a hand on the door and turned around.
"What are you talking about..." Mr. Cat kicked him on the butt and pushed Wang Xu directly into the door.
Wang Xu stumbled into the room. Before he could clearly see the situation in front of him, he immediately made a move to take action. If a blind monster suddenly rushed towards him at this time, he would definitely have greeted him with fists.
But he was obviously wasting his feelings, because the room in front of him was normal, and the bedding on the bed was clean. It was very different from the imagined scene of blood splattered all over the walls, floor, and ceiling.
Master Mao and Qi Bing also followed in. They looked around, and then Qi Bing asked a very constructive question: "Then the ghost cleaned up the scene after killing the people?"
Mr. Cat said: "I think there is something fishy about this whole house. Let's take a look at it in the evening."
Wang Xu said: "Then where should we go now?"
"I'm going to get some food from the storeroom. I just saw that there are a lot of ingredients in there. I guess it can feed a company of people. Anyway, I have nothing to do. Let's make a Western meal for dinner."
Wang Xu was surprised and said: "Hey! Are you really a gray wolf? The gray wolf doesn't necessarily have to live in a place like a castle, right? Are you still planning to stay here if you know there is something strange here?"
Qi Bing said; "We are now trapped in this space and cannot get out. We must eat and sleep. The town is deserted. Furthermore, walking through the woods is dangerous, and this house is the focus of our investigation.
…”
Mr. Cat continued what he said: "So, living here temporarily is the best choice."
The two of them sang together and ran downstairs. Wang Xu stood there blankly and used his extraordinary wisdom to make two inferences. First, if he didn't go with him, he might not get a share of the dinner.
Secondly, the person staying in this room tonight must be me...
