Dong Xie naturally didn't have much affection for Yuan Ping. He was not a holy mother. The more evil spirits killed one person by mistake, the more time they would have for themselves.
Time, in the Scarlet Mission, is life!
He grasped the fragment of mirror in his hand and put it back in his pocket. This thing cannot deal with evil spirits. If you keep holding it, the evil spirits may suspect that they want to borrow it for detection, so you should not hold it all the time.
For good.
Then, he observed the outline of the black shadow around him and began to move carefully holding on to the wall.
Suddenly, the lights came on again!
Then, something unexpected happened.
I saw Zhu Yanyan lying on the ground, and her hand changed from the doll that never left her hand to... a book!
"This... this book?"
Looking at the book in front of him, Chen Siyu gritted his teeth, walked up, knelt down and took a look.
Dong Xie also quickly walked up and took a look. The name of the book was...
"God's Prophecy". Judging from the cover, it seems to be a horror novel.
"How did that doll turn into a book?" Lan Yu was dumbfounded and said, "What the hell is going on?"
"I have some impressions of this book," Yuan Ping said quickly: "I read this book when I was in the suspense literature club I formed in college. It is a... poorly written horror novel."
"It was set by ghosts, right?" Chen Siyu looked up at Yuan Ping and said, "What is the plot of the book?"
"The story is about a group of people who were trapped underground for seven days after an earthquake. It is said to be a suspenseful horror novel, but it is all made up of mysteries. There is no real ghost from the beginning to the end."
"To be more specific, how many people are there in a group? Have there been any so-called residents here?"
"Um...no. Definitely not."
Chen Siyu thought for a moment, picked up the book, and opened it.
"Um?"
At this time, both Dong Xie and Chen Siyu saw that on the table of contents of the book, there were several page numbers with bloody fingerprints on them!
"The blood hasn't solidified yet..."
When Chen Siyu said this, his voice began to tremble.
Not even a drop of blood came out of Zhu Yanyan's body.
Looking at the densely packed bloody fingerprints on the catalog, one can only feel a numb scalp.
"Is this instructing us to check these page numbers? Or are the numbers on these pages some kind of code?" Chen Siyu said and quickly started turning the pages.
On the first page corresponding to the bloody fingerprints, there are several words, which are also stamped with bloody fingerprints!
"Yes...that's right..." Chen Siyu read out the words printed with bloody fingerprints one by one: "Girl...child..."
There are only these four words in total.
Then, Chen Siyu immediately started turning the pages.
"Sure enough, there are bloody fingerprints on this page too!"
At this moment? Dong Xie began to have a bad premonition in his heart.
What exactly is the evil spirit planning to do?
A new page? As expected, there are words stamped with bloody fingerprints again.
"Corpse..."
Seeing this shocking word, Chen Siyu pursed his lips and then read on: "Then... stretch out... your finger..."
At this moment? Dong Xie’s uneasy premonition became even stronger.
An idea formed quickly in his mind.
If...if you stand from the evil spirit's point of view...it is equivalent to executing a blood-letter instruction. In this blood-letter instruction, the evil spirit has a risk of death that is no less than that of the residents.
So...for evil spirits? What is the way out for this bloody character?
There is no doubt that for the Scarlet Mission, once the way to survive is the complete kill type, then both the residents and the evil spirit will have equal chances of survival. Yes, maybe the evil spirit has a flaw caused by the restrictions of the apartment.
But there is no such flaw in the resident? And the evil spirit cannot read the memory of the resident? There is no way to mentally control him to tell the truth... So, what is the way out for the evil spirit?
The answer will soon be revealed.
"This page..." Chen Siyu continued reading: "Say...say...Zhu...Yan...Yan...you..."
"Chen Siyu!" At this moment, Dong Xie said quickly: "You... what do you think these words mean?"
Ever since he started carrying out this bloody mission, Dong Xie has been trying his best to hide himself? But at this moment, he fell into a huge panic!
"I don't know? But it may be some kind of information that the ghost wants to reveal to us," Chen Siyu continued to turn the page.
what to do……
what to do?
Does Dong Xie know? If he obstructs Chen Siyu now, no matter what reason he uses, his suspicion will exceed that of Yuan Ping!
The evil spirit actually understood its plan to kill in this bloody mission!
Completely kill the residents to survive!
"This page is..." Every word read from Chen Siyu's lips was like Dong Xie's death sentence: "It's... the... resident..."
Dong Xie felt that his mind was completely blank.
Then? Chen Siyu turned to the last page.
The text on this page is...
"Everyone... do as you are told... I... will... let... you..."
"What's this mess?" Lan Yu still looked confused.
Without Chen Siyu, a top student, Dong Xie felt that he might still be able to control the situation, but with Chen Siyu here, it would be almost impossible.
"Wait a minute, let me think about it..." As soon as Yuan Ping said this, he was interrupted by Chen Siyu's next sentence.
"Look at the girl's body, then stretch out your finger and say: 'Zhu Yanyan, you are the resident'. Everyone does this and I will let you go."
Dong Xie only felt that his throat was extremely dry and he gritted his teeth.
That's right...
This is the ultimate way for evil spirits to survive!
The purpose of the evil spirit in killing Zhu Yanyan turned out to be this!
In fact, killing anyone is the same.
For the residents, once they follow the written information conveyed in this book and identify Zhu Yanyan's body, the consequences will be self-evident.
Zhu Yanyan is not an evil spirit. So, this will lead to him using the only way to survive that can completely kill the evil spirit.
To the evil spirits, they can immediately tell who is the resident if they do not follow these instructions.
And if the residents follow the instructions, it will be a waste of this identification opportunity, so it doesn't matter who the residents are, just kill them one by one slowly. Anyway, only if one of the residents and the evil spirit dies, the bloody story will be over, and the residents can return.
apartment.
"I don't understand what this means?" Dong Xie's brain was still running at super high speed at this moment: "Let us go if we do it? Zhu Yanyan is the resident?"
At this moment, there was no fear on his face. Frankly speaking, even Dong Xie himself was surprised. He thought that he would be unable to restrain his fear and reveal his flaws. Apart from anything else, even if his pupils became bigger
, subconsciously clenching your hands and breathing a little faster can make the evil spirits increase their suspicion of yourself.
However, in my mind, the search for a way out completely overwhelmed the fear.
Just like what his mother Ziyi said: Give up and wait until you die before giving up. Dong Xie felt that this sentence was very suitable to be his motto.
Fear, panic, despair, wait until you die and become a ghost, then think about it. Now that you are still alive, you will not give up hope.
He still has a chance to make a comeback!
Objectively speaking, this trick seems powerful, but in fact it also has huge problems. This kind of communication between evil spirits and living people makes it impossible for both parties to establish an effective trust relationship. Therefore, before everyone has no choice but to follow it, you can still create a
Time buffered. Besides, Zhu Yanyan had just died, so even if the evil spirit was sure who the resident was, it probably wouldn't be possible to kill him right away.
Did the evil spirit really just think of this method of identifying residents?
Or... I actually thought of this method from the beginning, but only used it at the end?
The biggest problem with this trick is that once the resident's spirit completely collapses and falls into despair, it is very likely that the evil spirit will identify someone as the evil spirit before killing someone!
He even suspected that the apartment restricted the evil spirit and had to use this trick just after killing someone.
He still has time, he still has a chance!
As long as he doesn't have the opportunity to identify the evil spirit, the evil spirit will always have fear.
For example, he could consider suggesting that this might involve some language-related curse to persuade everyone. But it would be very suspicious if he took the initiative to suggest it, so he had to find a way...
But at this moment, Yuan Ping suddenly pointed at Zhu Yanyan’s body and said, “Zhu Yanyan, you are the resident!”
After saying this, he breathed a sigh of relief, then looked around and said, "I said it, I said it! Can you let me go? It has nothing to do with me anymore, right?"
