Chapter 153: Trade my love for the past seventeen years ago
After returning to Crow's bedroom, the Holy Son finally woke up.
Red Shirt immediately said to the others:
"Gu Yousheng will definitely take action! I know trigger triggers like them... Do you believe it? What Gu Yousheng said just now is just to let us relax our vigilance. Now, we have only two ways - either sit back and wait for death.
, or find a way to counter it.”
That's what he said, but everyone had just seen Gu Yousheng's cultivation. Thinking of the terrifying pressure, it's hard to say that they weren't afraid of him deep down in their hearts.
"Crow, your rules should be able to deal with Gu Yousheng, right?" Red Shirt said.
The battle just now was interrupted by the weirdness of the bamboo hat, but in just half a round of the contest, it was obvious from the red shirt that Gu Yousheng had some concerns about the black bird of the crow.
"It's hard to deal with,"
Crow said: "Hunya's killing rules mainly rely on projection, but Gu Yousheng can move instantly..."
In addition to projection, of course there is also the call of the dusky crow that can be used.
With this in mind, Crow asked everyone to plug their ears as much as possible with strips of cloth and cotton balls.
"Be sure to block your ears," the crow said. "I asked the dusky crow to control the crow as low as possible. If one of our own people hears it, it will be terrible."
"Your dusky crow is too unintelligent, isn't it? Can't you control the sound to only affect specific people?"
"I don't want to either. It would be nice if I could complete the rules in the future."
"well,"
Hong Shi looked up to the sky and sighed: "God, please give me a weirdo, okay? It doesn't matter no matter how low the level is, no matter how unintelligent or unsound the rules are, no matter how ugly the appearance is!"
Please give me a living weirdo, and I am willing to exchange my love for it. Even if I never get married, no one will love me, or I never get the person I love, it doesn’t matter!"
…
In order to obtain the enemy's dynamics, the crow drove the dusky crow to circle around the old house.
"Not good," said the crow.
"how?"
"Gu Yousheng and the three of them..."
The crow looked at the red shirt and said, "It disappeared."
Oops. The first thought that came to several people's minds was that the other party was going to take action.
"Follow me!"
Crow's expression became very serious, and he led everyone directly to the death banyan tree in the center of the house.
Within the shroud of the death banyan tree, the power of the dusk crow's rules will be strengthened. The aerial roots of the banyan tree can attack in a range and help improve the crow's perception of the surroundings.
It's a pity that the death banyan tree in front of you is just the projection in this world of the one where the dusky crow originally lived.
The body of the death banyan tree is actually a grotesque with a very high level of rules. The thick python-like vine wrapped around the trunk of the banyan tree, as well as every aerial root of the banyan tree, are the incarnation of rules. Unfortunately, crows cannot control them at all.
It would be great if one day I could accommodate that banyan tree of death in my body. The crow thought.
At that time, not to mention dealing with Gu Yousheng... even facing those disorderly monsters who were wreaking havoc and killing people everywhere in the world, she should be very calm and happy, right?
Crow imagined herself fighting side by side with her fellow investigators, taking away the grotesques of disorderly murder one by one. She was so eager for that day to come as soon as possible.
At this moment, except for Zhen Yi, everyone seems to be nervous. Facing the unpredictable opponent and the upcoming decisive battle, it is difficult for them to have an optimistic attitude.
Dead. Hong Shi thought to himself.
"I'm sorry," Shengzi said with a guilty look on his face, "It's all me who has caused trouble to everyone! I think it's better to hand me over to them first..."
"I can do that too." Gu Xing said.
"What are you two thinking? You are such idiots,"
Red Shirt mocked: "Do you think that if I hand you over, the other party will let the others go? You are simply more innocent than a child in a kindergarten."
"We can always delay it for a day..." The Holy Son said: "A waste like me that is completely unable to fight, even if I stay, it seems to be of no use."
"Are you an idiot? I really want to slap you and knock you out again,"
Hong Shi said: "And you, Gu Xingjun. Please, if you two really feel that you are useless, be prepared to be scapegoats... Anyway, they are all scapegoats. They are living in the past, so it is better to be a scapegoat."
It's good for the three of us, we are familiar with each other anyway, right?"
Although the tone was full of ridicule, for some reason, the Holy Son felt very warm.
Hong Shi looked in the direction of the main house.
Shengzi looked at Hongshan's side face and suddenly remembered that yesterday morning, Hongshan lied about leaving something in the bathroom. In fact, she was afraid that she would be in danger.
Shengzi thought about the night when the three of them drank together, and why she hated Hong Shi so much at that time. But now, how could she like her so much.
In fact, even Gu Xing, whom she had always liked so much, was somewhat inferior to Hong Shi at this moment.
Several people waited for a long time under the banyan tree covered with red-eyed zombies, but still could not see any movement from Gu Yousheng and others.
"I didn't sense any danger."
The bloody parrot landed on Hong Shi's shoulder and said to her: "Not at all."
"Really?" Hongsha said in surprise.
"uh-huh."
In the trial field of [The Bizarre Reincarnator], the Blood Parrot's prediction of danger has never been inaccurate.
What's going on?
Hong Shi's face was full of confusion. Could it be that Gu Yousheng and others were really honest and gave up the plan of the death talisman? Impossible.
The crow also drove the dusky crow three times inside and outside the house several times, but still found no trace of Gu Yousheng and others. Even their breath could not be smelled, as if they had evaporated from the air.
"Tell me," said Hongshan, "could it be that Gu Yousheng and the others were actually taken away by the monster in the bamboo hat a long time ago?"
No way to guess.
"Anyway," Crow said, "We can't wait forever. Even if Gu Yousheng and the others don't take action, the weird hats will come at night."
Several people discussed it again and decided to continue solving the puzzle.
[Weird Reincarnator] has given two clear hints:
First, "find".
Second, "female".
Hong Shi said, according to past practice, these two hints are absolutely closely related to the final answer. [Weird Reincarnator] will not give out useless misleading information.
In fact, Gu Xing analyzed that besides this, there were several more subtle hints——
For example: What Dou Li said when he opened the door and saw the masked ninja: "No, you are not."
For example: the place where the tragedy occurred - this old house.
For example: a town resident who turns into a zombie at night and returns to a normal human being during the day.
Another example: the only survivor, Crow.
Gu Xing had a vague guess in his mind, but he lacked conclusive evidence and needed to find a way to confirm it.
All in all, several people have analyzed and speculated that in the year when the tragedy occurred, some unknown past events must have happened surrounding the weird bamboo hat and Crow's family.
"You can find out more about this past incident,"
Hong Shi said: "As I said, [Weird Reincarnator] will not make that kind of useless design. Think about it carefully——
Although the residents of the town are all dead...well, or rather dead at night, they still look like normal people during the day. Therefore, we can completely communicate with them and find those older people to find out what happened that year.
What happened?"
Everyone felt that what Red Shirt said was right. Logically speaking, it would be more efficient to operate separately at this moment, but everyone was concerned about the secret attack by Gu Yousheng and the other three, so they decided to act together as a group.
Although Gu Xing knew very well that the three people had now turned into three pairs of feet and were placed in Eijiro's trunk, with his grandma's TV set next to him, he couldn't think of a reliable reason to persuade everyone.
To separate boldly... I had to find a way to improve efficiency as much as possible while forming a group.
Gu Xing made a list of things that everyone wanted to know, such as: Seventeen years ago, that is, the year when the tragedy happened at Crow's house, something special happened in the town.
That year, did a man wearing a bamboo hat come to the town? Was it raining when he came? Was there anyone with him, was she a woman?
Wait, questions like this. After making a list, you can directly ask questions when the time comes.
In fact, after taking in the original freak in the bamboo hat, Gu Xing got a new book called "Collection of Weird Stories of the Blood Bowl", and the name that others can see is "The Melting Pot" (script version).
Gu Xing once tried to find useful information from the book, but after opening the book, he was completely blank.
He also tried to communicate with the strange man in the hat sitting in Eijiro's car, but to no avail.
He guessed that this was the work of the [Weird Reincarnator]. These books should be regarded as the rules of the [Weird Trader]? So, does it mean that the [Reincarnation] is higher than the [Trader]? Just a random guess.
.
Gu Xing and others spent the whole morning asking many residents of the town.
Almost everyone who was questioned had a friendly attitude at first, but when they heard about what happened seventeen years ago, their expressions started to look bad.
When it comes to the men in bamboo hats, their expressions changed drastically. They looked at Gu Xing and others as if they were monsters. They either said nothing and left in a panic, or they looked at the few people with resentment and some shame and anger.
, and some left angrily.
Red Shirt once considered using force to force words out of a certain resident, but he was concerned that this approach might trigger the killing rules of the "Weird Reincarnator", so he held back for the time being.
All in all, the inquiries in the morning yielded almost nothing.
In the end, the reputations of several people had spread in the town. Some people were asking about what happened seventeen years ago, some were asking about the weirdness of the bamboo hat, and some had evil intentions! They wanted to kill the residents of the town! That was probably the case.
rumors.
When everyone went to knock on the door again, some closed their doors and some simply ran away.
After driving on the street and searching for a long time, I finally saw an open sushi restaurant that looked to be quite old.
"Hello, grandma,"
Hong Shi showed the most cordial smile he had ever seen to the old man standing behind the counter, "I want to ask you something..."
"What? You want to buy sushi?"
"I want to ask you something!"
"You're asking, how much does a box of sushi cost?"
"I'm buying sushi." Mayi put a bill on the counter.
"What flavor does the little girl want?"
"The most expensive."
"It's packed," the old woman handed the sushi to Zhen Yi and asked Hong Shi, "Are you and this little girl together?"
"Um……"
"What did you ask just now? As I get older, my ears are a bit hard to use."
"...I'll buy a box of sushi too."
"Old lady," after paying for the sushi, Hongshan continued, "I want to ask you something!"
"Oh, what's the matter?"
"Do you know that seventeen years ago, a tragedy occurred in our Yinnan Town..."
"Oh..." The old woman's cloudy eyes suddenly lit up, like a torch suddenly lit in the dark night, "It's the family that was killed by the ghost."
"You know? We'd like to know-"
"You are here to ask for your life, right?" The old woman looked at the red shirt and said, "Little girl."
Without waiting for Hong Shi's reply, the old woman sat down, picked up a cup of tea, and told the story of seventeen years.
The story is actually very simple——
One evening in the autumn of that year, it was drizzling, and a man in a bamboo hat brought his daughter, a very beautiful little girl, to Yinnan Town.
The man and his daughter were penniless and hungry. The owner of a sushi restaurant took pity on him and gave them a box of sushi.
Since he could not afford to stay in a hotel, the man proposed to stay overnight. The wife of the sushi restaurant owner did not agree, so she refused, but introduced the father and daughter to a warm and hospitable family.
That night, the man was strangled to death by the male owner of the house who took him in, and his daughter was taken to the bedroom by the male owner.
The next morning, the man's body disappeared.
The daughter was locked in an iron cage by the male owner.
In the next few days, when almost everyone in the town was sleeping, they dreamed of the scene where the man in the bamboo hat begged them to rescue his daughter.
Everyone knew that there was a little girl locked in an iron cage in that house, but no one came to save her.
"Including me." At this point, the old woman said.
About a month after that incident, the man suddenly died suddenly and violently one night. His death was so tragic that even the criminal police who had been handling homicide cases all year round would run outside from the crime scene to vomit.
Not long after, a family in the town suffered a massacre, and only one girl survived.
It is said that on the night of the tragedy, the ghost of the man in a bamboo hat came to the door. Someone in the town heard his knock on the door.
For so many years, no one in the town dared to mention the story of the man in the bamboo hat. Everyone knew in their hearts that he would come back and take revenge.
After so many years, the man in the bamboo hat has never come back. Every time in the dead of night, the knock on the door will ring. People can only hear the knock on the door, but cannot see the person knocking on the door.
After Gu Xing heard this story, the first reaction in his head was - it would be great if the beastly male owner hadn't died. It's a pity...
Hong Shi tried to ask for more information from her grandma, but after telling her story, the old woman said she was going to find something in the back room and walked in alone.
After a while, several people realized something was wrong.
I quickly walked in and found that the old woman had hanged herself.
Gu Xing observed the rope the old woman used to hang herself, the beam on which the rope was hung, and the bench that fell on the ground. There was thick dust on it and signs of aging. It seemed that the old woman had been preparing for this day for a long time.
Recalling the unexpected joy and frankness with which she recounted that terrible past, it seemed as if her long life had been waiting for the moment when she would tell the whole story and gain relief.
But perhaps, what the old woman never knew was that she was hanging on the sling and losing her breath, and her eyes were red.
Her stiff body swung on the rope, breaking the aging rope.
She stood up, walked over to the crow, and said:
"you……"
