Because it was Jiang Lu who proposed the method, he volunteered to stand at the next point where there was no one.
Jiang Lu let out two "ows" and signaled that he was going to start moving forward.
After receiving responses from the performer and the sickle, he began to walk straight ahead.
Soon, he arrived at the next point.
There is a torn piece of clothing here, which was torn off by the sickle to mark the location.
"nobody."
Jiang Lu showed no change of expression.
No matter how passionate a person is, they still need some teasing. The kind of person who is completely devoted to someone with just one look only appears in toilet paper anime, so he is not in a hurry.
So, after shouting "Ah" to indicate that there was no one at the point he had arrived at, he started to move forward.
Before long, he arrived at the spot where the performers were.
He patted the performer gently on the back, then felt him visibly shake, as if he had been suddenly frightened, and then began to move forward.
Whether it was an illusion or not, Jiang Lu seemed to see the performer's legs trembling a little.
You're already a level 60 exorcist, so you shouldn't be afraid of ghosts, right?
Jiang Lu muttered to himself.
About a minute later, Jiang Lu heard a "wow" from behind.
"Not this round either?"
It’s not that he is disappointed, Jiang Lu continues to wait.
Not long after, he felt someone pat his back, and then he took a step forward.
The game continues round by round.
In every round, someone would shout "Ah", which means there is always a spot where no one is.
By the seventh round, even the confident Jiang Lu couldn't help but become a little impatient.
In the past, when I played with those daily friends, ghosts would usually appear by the third round, and at most within five rounds, someone would always encounter a ghost. But today it’s the seventh round, why is there still someone screaming?
It's so weird.
While muttering to himself, Jiang Lu patted the performer on the back.
As the game went on, the performer seemed to have gotten used to it. He was no longer afraid, his legs stopped shaking, and he walked out straight. He even looked happy from behind.
"Damn it... Is it really impossible to trick it?" Jiang Lu felt inexplicably annoyed.
Judging from the performer's actions, he has clearly gotten rid of his fearful mood and has become arrogant because he is certain that the immortal corpse will not appear.
"Hmm...wait a little longer. I don't believe it."
Just as Jiang Lu was talking to himself, there was another "wow" sound from behind.
It looks like it didn't show up again this round.
Just as Jiang Lu was getting ready and waiting for the sickle to hit him on the back, he suddenly realized that something seemed to be wrong.
"Wait a minute... In the seventh round, if no one shows up, and there are always byes..."
Jiang Lu calculated in his mind and asked doubtfully:
"So the person who gets the bye spot this time... shouldn't I be the one?"
"Who the hell was yelling just now?"
As mentioned before, Jiang Lu has never played this game for more than five rounds, so he ignored the calculation and only knew that if three people played, then those who passed the bye point in the first round would pass the same point again in the fourth round.
Just as Jiang Lu was wondering whether the immortal corpse had appeared, he suddenly thought of a more terrifying question.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute!"
"Why has there only been one shout from the first round till now?"
The name of the game is Four Corners, but there are only three of them.
If we mark the four positions with 1 to 4, and there was no one at position 4 at the beginning, then Jiang Lu photographed the performers from 3-4-1. At this time, there were two people at position 1, Sickle was at position 2, and Jiang Lu at position 3 left, so positions 3 and 4 were actually byes.
That is to say, if you follow the rules of the game, except for Jiang Lu at the beginning, everyone will encounter two points and then make two "aww" sounds.
But from the first round to now, every round has only been a "wow".
This means that, in fact, there has been one more person since the first round!
Because he didn't expect the problem of number of people, and didn't think that the immortal corpse would be so easy to tease, Jiang Lu didn't realize this problem until now.
"Fuck! This is stupid!"
Jiang Lu slapped his forehead suddenly.
In this case, because it is not known which position the extra person will appear in, the round of byes is uncertain, so Jiang Lu did not encounter an empty position in the seventh round.
But just when Jiang Lu wanted to send a signal to stop the game, he suddenly hesitated.
"No, we can't call a halt now. Although we have confirmed that it appeared in the first round, we don't know which position it is in, so we have no way of judging where it is..."
The venue was too large, and Jiang Lu was worried that if he stopped rashly, the immortal corpse would disappear again.
Just as Jiang Lu was thinking about how to determine where the immortal corpse was, he suddenly felt a burning pain in his right eye.
Blinking his eyes, a strange picture appeared in front of his eyes...
"Is this... overusing your brain?" Jiang Lu rubbed his eyes and said, "How did you see the thrown pieces?"
Chapter 281 The last hope of the whole village!
In Jiang Lu's field of vision, two mountain-like objects appeared.
He could tell at a glance that this was the perspective of a woman with an impressive figure having her head covered by a top.
There is no sagging, the entire southern hemisphere is very straight and upright, even more perfect than a sculpture.
"Is this haunted?"
Jiang Lu shook his head vigorously, trying to get rid of this illusion from his mind.
But he couldn't do it. Instead, the vague illusion became more and more real, overlapping with the scene before his eyes, just like two pictures taken by a camera superimposed on each other.
Just when he couldn't figure out what was going on, the next moment, his head began to hurt violently, as if a drill was squeezing his brain madly.
Closing his eyes and touching his burning right eyelid, Jiang Lu realized that this was not haunted.
He was very familiar with this feeling, and he finally understood why he suddenly saw this strange thing.
Eye of foresight!
Somehow, the power of the evil god's right eye suddenly activated on its own.
Because of this, Jiang Lu, whose ability values were reduced and became no different from ordinary people, began to have a headache due to low mental strength after a few seconds.
When he opened his eyes again, the Eye of Prescience had automatically dissipated because his mental strength was not enough to sustain its consumption.
Apart from the continued pain in my head, it seemed as if nothing had happened.
"Is this a sign..."
Jiang Lu couldn't help but think so.
In previous Four Corners games, the ghosts that appeared would often disguise themselves as people participating in the game. This was also what had troubled Jiang Lu before, because if the immortal corpse disguised itself as a performer or a sickle, it would be impossible for him to distinguish them based on his current state.
But that's different now.
Both the performer and the sickle are men, and no one would possess such a bold and unrestrained giant. There is only one possibility, that the giant that I just saw should be the corpse of an immortal.
Does that mean that this is the key to finding the immortal corpse?
"It can only disguise a person's appearance, but it can't change their body shape..."
At the same time, the footsteps behind the performer standing at his own position gradually became clearer.
Although he had played seven rounds of the game and his mentality had gradually calmed down, he still felt a little insecure when thinking about someone walking up behind him and patting him on the back without his sight.
Especially since Jiang Lu, with whom he had friction in the past, was behind him, he always felt that the other party would secretly tease him. In short, he was very uneasy.
And such an environment...
"Damn it, if he hadn't shown up, couldn't it have ended earlier? Do we have to keep playing this boring game forever?"
he muttered.
Although he said he was bored, his hands, which didn't know where to put, revealed his guilty conscience.
Yes, such a dark scene made him feel inexplicably panicked.
He didn't tell anyone that he was actually afraid of claustrophobic environments.
Just as most people do not feel scared when watching horror movies, but when they encounter similar scenes in the horror movies within a few days or even longer after watching them, the fear in their hearts will be magnified countless times.
Being able to reach the realm of level 60, the performers have experienced countless spiritual realms, of course, many of the horror type.
All kinds of gloomy and terrifying experiences were constantly recalled by the performer in this environment, constantly impacting his scarred heart.
PTSD.
Although he was reluctant to admit it, a big part of the reason why he had been resisting Jiang Lu's proposal to play psychic games in the spirit realm was actually because of this.
In his opinion, isn't this simply courting death?
He said that he thought Jiang Lu's method would not work, but in fact, he was afraid that his nightmarish experiences would repeat themselves or attack him in the form of dead memories.
But no matter how hard he tried to avoid it, it still happened.
His mind was in a mess now, all kinds of bad memories flooded into his mind, and he had cursed Jiang Lu countless times in his heart.
It would be fine if it was useful, but it's been seven rounds and it's still useless. Isn't this just torturing myself?
While I was daydreaming, footsteps came behind me.
Jiang Lu patted him lightly.
After hesitating for a long time, the performer finally made a decision in his heart. He carefully considered his words and finally said, "This is the seventh round. It's impossible to succeed. Give up. I won't ask you to apologize to me. Let's think of other ways."
He didn't look back because he didn't want Jiang Lu to see the struggle and weakness on his face.
