Chapter 106 The Miss is Very Satisfied
Chapter 106 The Miss is Very Satisfied
"I almost died, just almost." Luo Xi said.
"It's just a little bit short of death, and it doesn't matter how much it's short of." Ke Lan is obviously a stubborn person. Suddenly, he frowned and looked at Luo Xi: "Wait a minute, although we haven't known each other for a long time, I can see that you are more stubborn and serious than me. Since you know that the condition for obtaining the bronze mirror is that one person must die, but you didn't die, how can you act like you don't care, and how can you be sure that the bronze mirror can be turned into a card? No, no, you must have known the reason, so you can go over and collect it with confidence!"
It's obvious that Ke Lan is a smart person.
No wonder this guy can survive alone, no wonder he dares to buy the package of Doudou Game House.
Definitely a capable one.
I was indeed hiding my incompetence before.
The other party's abilities in all aspects are stronger than what they actually show.
Luo Xi still shook his head: "I really don't know, I just simply think that 'once the trap is triggered, it will no longer have the ability to trigger it again'. The ghost in the mirror has already made a move, but for some reason it was interrupted, or failed. It can be understood as a hidden crossbow. The arrow has been shot, so the deterrent power of this crossbow no longer exists. As for whether the arrow hits anyone, it will not affect the result that the hidden crossbow has failed."
"." Ke Lan obviously didn't believe this explanation, but he also saw that no matter how much he asked, he would not get any answer.
To some extent, he knew that Luo Xi was very similar to him.
Whether in dealing with problems or coping with crises, Luo Xi is more "paranoid" and "extreme" than him in some aspects, and more cunning.
This kind of person is either a complete lunatic or an extremely smart genius.
Of course, it is possible to have both qualities at the same time.
Another thing is that Ke Lan just heard the ghost in the mirror say, "Who are you?"
So, who is the 'you' that the female ghost is talking about?
he wanted to ask.
But finally endured it.
Because it is useless to ask. If the other party doesn’t know, they will definitely not be able to give an answer. Conversely, if they know but don’t want to say it, the result is still nothing can be asked.
"This guy is not ordinary, he is very difficult to deal with, and he is extremely cunning!" Ke Lan said in his heart.
Before this, he already had an evaluation of Luo Xi in his mind, but now, this evaluation had some more labels, both good and bad.
As for Luo Xi's taking of the 'Bronze Mirror' card, no one, including Ke Lan, had any objection.
After all, it wasn't them who were nearly strangled to death just now.
At this time, Luo Xi glanced at the scholar who was covered in blood, had a painful look on his face, and was already a little listless.
Wu Rui showed no mercy when she stabbed him with those two blows just now.
We have to quickly hand the scholar over to the 'young lady', otherwise it will be troublesome if he dies.
"Let's go to the funeral hall!"
Luo Xi made a decision immediately. Although there were still some places in the entire level scene that had not been explored and some clues might be missed, and these clues might even be very important, there was not enough time now.
If the scholar died, it would cause big trouble.
So sometimes, taking risks is forced.
Luo Xi already has a new clue on this point, which is the description on the [Bronze Mirror of Memory] card he obtained.
He did not tell anyone this description.
There is a sentence about the eldest lady above.
"She is a woman after all, and her dream life is to take care of her husband and children and live happily with her family."
'To support my husband and raise my children' and 'to be together as a family' are actually the biggest wishes of that female ghost.
Therefore, this fellow 'Scholar' cannot die yet. At least, the one who can decide his life or death can only be the young lady.
On the way, Ke Lan couldn't help but say, "This time, the exchange of people was extremely dangerous, but I actually discovered something important."
"You mean, who should we choose to hand over the person?" Luo Xi seemed to know what the other party was going to say, which surprised Ke Lan and also shocked her.
In the past, he thought he was better than others in every aspect.
In essence, Ke Lan is a very conceited and arrogant person. He is taciturn not only because of his personality, but also because he thinks it is a waste of time to talk or cooperate with some "fools" in his eyes.
It's more efficient to be alone.
But this does not mean that he has no friends. Obviously, the people who can catch Ke Lan's eyes must be the same as him and the kind with whom he can talk.
Luo Xi fully meets his requirements.
And in every aspect, they completely crushed him.
This made Ke Lan depressed, but also gave her an urge to be competitive.
A few people first bandaged the scholar's wound simply, and then rushed to the mourning hall.
Because the distance was not far, it only took a few minutes to reach the outside of the mourning hall at the beginning.
At this moment, the mourning hall looked even more terrifying because there were candles inside.
There is a white lantern hanging in front of the door.
The white window paper reflects the shadow of a woman.
This shadow has no head.
With a big belly.
The next moment, a woman's voice came faintly.
"It is hard to let go of the hatred for the wrong love, and the tears of longing are shed in the quiet night. Under the moon and in front of the flowers, I recall in vain, and I am disheartened and swear to become enemies."
As she spoke, the woman began to cry.
It was desolate and sad, and there was a sense of resentment just from the voice.
"Wu Rui, you go!"
Luo Xi said at this time.
At this time, except Ke Lan, everyone else was stunned.
You let a girl go on such a dangerous mission? Isn't that a bit too much?
Wu Rui was also a little surprised.
But she still nodded and didn't refuse.
"Being cheated by a man, the young lady must hate men to death. So if we go in, she might kill someone out of hatred. Wu Rui, you are a woman, you should speak from her perspective. The young lady should not kill you. Besides, when you go in, just say this..."
Luo Xi leaned over at this time and whispered something in Wu Rui's ear.
The others couldn't hear it and were very curious.
"You bring something like"
"Yes, I do."
"Very good. Then, you know what to do, right?" Luo Xi smiled.
Wu Rui nodded: "I understand!"
At this moment, there was a glimmer of expectation in her eyes.
"Based on the clues I have at hand, I have tried my best to deduce as many possibilities as possible. To be honest, you may still die in there, and the possibility is not small. If that's the case, we can only see you on the next cycle day." Luo Xi also mentioned the worst possibility.
"I understand." Wu Rui took a deep breath. She was not afraid of death.
After all, it wasn't the first time he died.
But for her, taking the initiative to walk into the room of evil spirits and evil ghosts is still a challenge that needs to be overcome.
As for the scholar, after being stabbed twice, he was now exhausted. When he heard the voice inside, his face was full of fear.
"Let's go, your wife is waiting for you inside!" Wu Rui pulled the scholar over.
At this time, the eldest lady in the room spoke again: "The tenderness of the past is gone like water, and the hatred today is burning like fire. I hope you will suffer more hardships in this life, so that you will know that you have given your love to the wrong person. Time is ruthless and makes people grow old, and beauty is easy to pass away and dreams are hard to find. I only hope that we can meet again in the next life, and live up to our youth and our hearts."
The scholar almost collapsed, but Wu Rui gritted her teeth, pushed open the door, and forced the other person in.
After Wu Rui went in, the door closed automatically.
The people outside were all staring nervously, waiting for the judgment of "fate".
The next moment, the candle in the room suddenly went out.
It was very quiet inside, without a single sound.
Both Mao Ge and Guo Zening were extremely nervous.
"Is nothing going to happen?"
"Shh, watch, and don't make any noise."
At present, the final result is still unknown, and all they can do is wait patiently.
But this kind of waiting can definitely be described as torture, the kind that makes every second feel like a year.
Luo Xi stood still, looking at the silent mourning hall with an expressionless face.
Time passed by minute by minute.
Everyone's mood gradually became depressed.
After about ten minutes, even Ke Lan's face showed anxiety and confusion.
"Did it fail?"
Luo Xi still didn't react. He was like a statue at this moment. If his eyes were not still open, others might think he was asleep.
At this moment, the tightly closed door of the mourning hall creaked and was pushed open.
Everyone's heart skipped a beat and they looked over nervously.
The door was just opened a crack, and then Wu Rui poked her head out, looked outside, and waved at Luo Xi.
That means, let him pass.
"Fuck, brother, I think you'd better not go over there. This girl might be possessed by a ghost. If you go in, you'll be in great danger." Hou Cheng couldn't help but persuade in a low voice at this time, and at the same time, he had already stretched one foot behind him.
Always ready to escape.
This scene is really scary.
Can't you just say what work you have? Just waving your hand will easily arouse people's imagination.
Luo Xi naturally needs to make a decision at this time, whether to go or run.
He didn't think much about it and just walked over.
Mao Ge and Guo Zening were about to follow, but Luo Xi waved his hand and asked them to go back.
So, everyone watched Luo Xi walk to the door and squeeze in through the crack of the open door. The door closed again.
It was still silent.
"This brother is so smart, how could he be so reckless? Anyone with a discerning eye can see that there is something wrong in the house." Hou Cheng couldn't help but said, "Why don't we run away?"
No one ignored him.
Needless to say, Liu Mao and Guo Zening are on the same team as Luo Xi. No matter what choice Luo Xi makes, they will not interfere, and they will not run away before a result is obtained.
Neither does Ke Lan.
In fact, he knew very well that the woman just now was not controlled at all.
When she waved, her thumb was pointed inward, which was obviously a special gesture.
It's 'sign language'.
The kind that is agreed upon and set in advance.
This should be one of the things that Luo Xi whispered to the other party just now.
"What on earth is he going to do?" Ke Lan was very anxious. He was extremely curious, but he didn't have the courage to break in.
It was extremely dark inside the mourning hall.
But the moonlight shining through the doors and windows didn't make it completely dark.
You can vaguely see a woman standing in front, and four human heads are neatly placed on a table on the side.
It’s arranged like a fruit plate.
It was the lady, her maid, the monk and Zhang Lin.
These four people were the first to be killed by the female ghost in the mourning hall.
The female ghost was holding a head in her hand.
But it's her own.
The neck of the body was covered in blood and flesh. This scene was indeed very terrifying, enough to drive people crazy because of extreme fear.
This person is naturally the eldest lady.
On the other side, there was a person kneeling.
Scholar.
At this moment, the scholar was so scared that he collapsed and was somewhat unconscious. He seemed to be muttering something, but the voice was very low. He might be begging for mercy or forgiveness.
Seeing that the scholar was not dead, Luo Xi breathed a sigh of relief.
"really!"
Lao Cao said that if they wanted to escape from here, they had to make the young lady "satisfied". One way was to sacrifice the lives of all the teammates except herself. However, this method was not particularly safe in Luo Xi's opinion, because the criterion of "satisfaction" was too subjective.
She might be satisfied if she killed one person, but she might not be satisfied if she killed a hundred people.
It all depends on my mood.
Therefore, the key point is the word "satisfaction".
The prerequisite for making a woman, no, a female ghost satisfied is to make her in a good mood first.
First of all, this problem is easy to understand, but when it is substituted into the current level scene, it will immediately become magical.
After exploring this level, normal people will gradually discover the truth about the eldest lady's death and know the source of her pain. Then naturally, in order to satisfy her, they will involuntarily point to the concept of "revenge for her".
This is definitely a correct answer.
But what Luo Xi was thinking about was that the issue was not initially about "helping the young lady to take revenge" but about "making her satisfied".
So the previous understanding of revenge was completely a preconceived idea and self-righteous.
In this way, in addition to sending the unfaithful scholar back to be dealt with by the eldest lady, some "extra" attempts can also be made.
For example, Luo Xi asked Wu Rui to inadvertently "compliment" the eldest lady verbally, praising her beauty, praising her talent, praising the poem she just wrote and the lyrics she sang, which can be regarded as famous lines through the ages, in order to use empathy to win the favor of the female ghost.
Then they say that men are all pigs who always make mistakes, and we should be more tolerant when we should forgive them, after all, "a harmonious family brings prosperity."
This statement is inherently problematic, but it depends on who you say it to.
The memories preserved in the bronze mirror and the textual description suggest that the eldest daughter was still a little woman who longed for happiness and hoped to live a life of taking care of her husband and children.
Even if she becomes a ghost, as long as she still has memories of the past, perhaps she can awaken her "reason".
And because the female ghost did not kill the scholar immediately, it shows that although she was full of resentment, she still retained a trace of "rationality" as a human being.
To put it more bluntly, this is a ghost that can control its own behavior.
Just like Lao Cao.
Lao Cao said that the eldest lady was more capable than him, so if even Lao Cao could remain "rational", it was not impossible for the eldest lady to remain rational as well.
Luo Xi taught Wu Rui to tell the eldest lady a fictional story in the form of "A song that breaks my heart, where can I find a soulmate in the world; two lines of sorrowful tears, how can I forget my lover in the corner of the world", and packaged Wu Rui herself as a poor person who was cheated of money and sex by a "scumbag".
This is 'empathy', this is 'sympathy'.
In addition to these, you can also win the favor of the female ghost by giving gifts.
Wu Rui was wearing a lipstick, and Luo Xi asked her to give it to the eldest lady first.
Sending gifts to evil spirits may sound incredible, even a crazy and unreliable idea, but for Luo Xi, as long as it is a method that can be tried, it is worth a try no matter how incredible it is.
But the result was that Wu Rui did not die.
This at least shows that Luo Xi's test has initially shown results.
As for why he was called in, Luo Xi had said this to Wu Rui before.
"The eldest lady is filled with resentment because of her sudden death and because someone let her down. So to resolve her resentment, we can only start from these two aspects. If someone let her down, then bring that person here and say that the scholar has turned over a new leaf, begs for forgiveness, and is even willing to give up his life to be with the eldest lady forever. As for death, of course it is irreversible, but you can give her hope. If she is pregnant, you can tell her that I am a doctor and can help her deliver the baby."
"If the plan really goes this far, you will call me in. But in order to avoid being possessed by a ghost or being controlled, remember, don't call me. Just wave your hand, but keep your thumb hidden in the palm of your hand. Then I will know that our plan has succeeded."
At this point, Wu Rui had completed everything that Luo Xi had asked her to do.
She did a great job.
It was even beyond Luo Xi's expectations.
At this moment, in the strange house, the eldest lady walked over with a huge sense of oppression.
"Doctor, I'm honored." The female ghost over there was actually holding her own head and saluted Luo Xi.
In the weird funeral hall, a headless and big-bellied female ghost is performing rituals, which is unbearable for ordinary people.
But Luo Xi faced it calmly.
"No need to be polite."
"I heard that the doctor is good at gynecology and knows how to deliver babies?"
"Yes, I'm an expert at it. It's a craft passed down from my family." Nonsense, Luo Xi is a professional. His words don't tremble or shake, and what he says sounds like the truth.
The ghost girl touched her bulging belly with one hand and held the head of the person with the other hand, staring straight at Luo Xi: "Can you ask the doctor to help me bring my child back to the world so that our family of three can be reunited?"
"Obligated!"
At this moment, Wu Rui, who was standing nearby, listened to the fierce conversation between the man and the ghost. She felt it was absurd at first, and then her scalp went numb.
Luo Xi, do you really want to deliver the baby for this female ghost?
Will this work?
The baby in the ghost girl's belly should have died long ago. Even if it was taken out, it would be a stillbirth. The ghost girl would definitely be furious.
"Oh, I don't care. Let him do whatever he wants." Wu Rui closed her eyes and watched Luo Xi perform next.
With what happened next, Wu Rui felt that her sanity was on the verge of collapse at any time.
Anyway, if it were her, she would be scared to death.
But Luo Xi remained calm and composed. The other party actually carefully examined the ghost girl's bulging belly. He not only touched it with his hands but also put his ear close to it to listen carefully.
How brave does it take to keep a poker face while doing something like this?
The Oscar should be awarded to Luo Xi.
This acting is amazing!
Wu Rui was at least three meters away, just watching, but even so, she had to wipe the cold sweat from her forehead from time to time. Her neck and back were already soaked.
"Lie down." Luo Xi smiled and said, "In your case, you need surgery. Wu Rui, give me the knife."
Oh my god!
Wu Rui felt like she was about to explode. She didn't even know how she walked over and handed the dagger in her hand to Luo Xi.
At this moment, Wu Rui saw that in addition to the knife, Luo Xi was holding something else in his hand.
It is the scripture of 'Nirvana Mantra'.
"He wouldn't want to..." Wu Rui thought of a possibility, and her first reaction was that Luo Xi was crazy.
However, Wu Rui didn't dare to say anything more at this time. As she said, Luo Xi could do whatever he wanted, and she would accept it.
At this moment, the female ghost was standing upright. Luo Xi squatted down and used a knife to cut a horizontal cut on the lower part of the ghost's belly. He pulled open her belly and reached in to touch her.
Wu Rui saw clearly that when Luo Xi reached in, he was holding the "Nirvana Mantra" in his hand. When he was struggling to pull out a fetus, the "Nirvana Mantra" disappeared.
No need to ask, just stay inside.
"Giving birth will be painful and uncomfortable. In short, any discomfort is normal. Just bear with it." Luo Xi cut the umbilical cord with a knife, tied a knot, then took off her coat and wrapped it around the fetus in her hand.
The fetus was blue and purple all over, lifeless, and more like a pile of rotten meat in the shape of a human.
"Congratulations, it's a big fat boy!" Luo Xi handed the dead baby to the female ghost: "The family is reunited, how lucky we are, congratulations, congratulations!"
"My son, my son." The female ghost took the dead baby, but she was extremely excited, and her tone was unprecedentedly gentle.
"Shh, the young master has fallen asleep, don't wake him up!" Luo Xi warned, and the female ghost really lowered her voice. She put her own head aside, and held the dead baby carefully in her hands, as if she were holding a priceless treasure.
"Thank you, doctor. If it weren't for your help, our family would not be reunited!" The female ghost's voice was much softer above the head of the person next to him. If you closed your eyes and listened at this moment, you would really think it was a gentle and virtuous woman whispering thank you.
"Helping others is the basis of happiness, it's not worth mentioning. I have other important things to do, so I'll take my leave now!"
"Doctor, you can leave through the red gate. I'm sorry for not being able to see you off."
"It's okay, it's okay, no need to send me off, no need to send me off!"
After Luo Xi finished speaking, he pulled Wu Rui out.
