Ma Fulin tells the story of a mother and daughter who were lucky enough to survive in the arena.
A family of three took a carriage to a neighboring county. When they passed an unowned house, bad luck struck them and they were dragged into Sarah and Adam's death arena.
The house is just a simple one-story wooden house, so the rules of the game are simple: hide and seek. The time limit is one hour, and the person who still plays the "ghost" after one hour will die.
The husband of a family of three made a touching decision. He let his wife who became a "ghost" touch him until the countdown ended.
"Finally, the mother and daughter, who were clinging to each other, walked out of the wooden house, while their husbands and father were left in the wooden house with the door closed forever."
Ma Fulin slowly ended the story with a sigh of relief.
It would be better if the ending of the story was that the family of three came out together. Unfortunately, evil spirits are never good things.
"Did you search the cabin after The Exorcist?" Kig Foley asked.
"Of course I looked for it, but the house was already empty, and the husband's footprints disappeared after his wife and daughter left."
"Evil spirits can usually be traced back to their source." Lu Li said slowly: Have the exorcists investigated the stories of Sarah and Adam during their lives?"
Ma Fulin shook his head in confusion: "Maybe there is, but I don't know."
"I know." Rhodes suddenly replied.
Others in front of the campfire looked at him.
He sat up straighter, moved away from the rock he was sitting on, added some firewood to the campfire, and said: "Two hundred years ago, Sarah, who was still human, was the descendant of an aristocrat from a small principality in the northern part of the continent. She fell in love with a commoner named Adam.
But she was forced by her father to marry the earl's heir, and then Adam died, perhaps due to her father's doing or accident. Sarah was unfortunately defiled by the earl's heir in the garden on the night of the dinner."
"After that, traces of the devil appeared inexplicably. Sarah eliminated the devil and killed everyone in the manor, including the earl's heir and her father, in order to resurrect Adam. The final outcome was the destruction of the family, and Sarah took Adam's body with her
Leave the principality. Then Sarah and Adam appear in the death arena."
The first half is consistent with Lu Li's experience, only the second half has been changed to create a less perfect ending.
In the copy of Shadow of the Thread, they are all servants of the manor. If the plot does not change, everyone will die.
After Rhodes finished speaking, his eyes fell on Lu Li: "You seem to be very familiar with Sarah and Adam?"
"I have encountered the shadow of the thread." Lu Li did not hide it. "The prototype of the script is the story of Sarah resurrecting Adam."
The three exorcists showed interest, so the third one sounded in front of the campfire as Lu Li's story.
"The light pierced the dark clouds and sprinkled on the two entangled trees, and the figures of Sarah and Adam faintly emerged."
A few minutes later, Lu Li finished telling the end of the story.
"Good story." Don't be stingy with your own praise and praise.
The story Lu Li tells points to the essence of the party's existence: new knowledge, and learning how other exorcists deal with weirdness.
Exorcists pay more attention to inheritance than other professions, which is why most famous exorcists come from exorcist families.
Without the accumulation of knowledge, there is not much difference between an ignorant exorcist and an ignorant ordinary person.
"So this is the story of Sarah and Adam..." Ma Fulin sighed, solving one of the countless weird mysteries in his heart.
He looked at Rhodes: "The last story is your turn."
At this time, Anna's hand suddenly pressed gently on Lu Li's back.
Lu Li seemed to feel something, and turned his head to look at the darkness in the direction of Star Lake.
Tick tick tick tick——
Ma Fulin took out the noisy alarm clock from his arms and looked around gloomily.
"An evil spirit is approaching us."
Kig Foley and Rhodes stood up at the same time. Rhodes glanced strangely at Lu Li, who had discovered it earlier than they and the pre-awakening alarm clock, and at the same time looked in the direction Lu Li was looking.
More than ten meters away, at the edge of the fire, the dividing line between light and darkness, a thin and long black hand slowly poked out, its shadow generally extending on the ground, approaching the people around the fire, or rather the fire.
Shadow of the Stealing Fire.
The tense atmosphere suddenly dissipated, and Rhodes leaned back on the rock, picked up stones and threw them towards the Shadow of the Stealing Fire.
His accuracy was poor, and the stone hit the fire-stealing shadow dozens of centimeters in front of him. However, the stone that bounced and rolled forward still touched the fire-stealing shadow.
The strange and long shadow quickly retreated as if frightened, and penetrated into the rich darkness beyond the firelight.
"It left..."
Anna whispered in Lu Li's ear.
"These evil spirits are appearing more and more frequently." Mafulin's pre-spiritual alarm clock stopped making noise. He twisted the clockwork to the end and put it in his pocket. He sighed and said, "I heard that visible evil spirits appeared in Tanis Acropolis not long ago.
Song, passed through from north to south, passing through more than a dozen streets, killing hundreds of people. If it hadn't appeared at night, many more people would have died innocently."
"Visible Song? Is it an evil spirit?" Lu Li asked
"Well, he suddenly appeared in the Main Continent half a month ago, and then wandered around." Ma Fulin told Lu Li the information about the Visible Song.
When you hear the ethereal singing, it means that you have entered the range of the visible song. If you do nothing, the person who hears the singing will gradually fade away and eventually disappear within tens of seconds.
There is no use running away, the only solution is to close your eyes and the visible song will disappear instantly.
Like the Shadow of the Stealing Fire, the Visible Song is an evil spirit that can be easily dealt with, provided you know its ritual sense.
After Ma Fulin finished speaking, Kig Foley told Lu Li some of the evil spirits that have been wreaking havoc in the Allen Kingdom recently: the suffering crowd, the headless spirit, and the uninvited guest.
The Suffering Crowd has hundreds of eyes growing on its bloated body surface. It is not afraid of harm. Any form of attack cannot kill it. At the same time, it will not actively harm others - yes, the Suffering Crowd never takes the initiative.
Take action, but its terrifying and disgusting appearance will make most civilians unable to help but run away or attack.
For the former, the suffering crowd will follow closely, forcing people to harm it, and then humbly bear the harm caused to it by civilians like ascetics until it reaches a certain level.
Its body will split open like petals and swallow anyone who hurts it.
Some exorcists judge that the people it swallows will become a part of it, and the eyes on its body are evidence of this, but there is no direct evidence.
The headless spirit is a headless female figure wearing a white dress. Although it has no head, it will make wailing sounds day and night. If you get close enough to it and listen carefully, you will faintly hear "My head" from the intermittent sobs.
..." murmured.
When you hear its cry, related words such as head, head, etc. will not be spoken. Otherwise, it will instantly appear next to you and pick off the victim's head, whisper "Not this one..." and then disappear, appearing in other places.
place.
As for the uninvited guests, Lu Li already knew about them and had contact with them.
