Chapter 188 2 minute

Chapter 188 Twelve Minutes
"Luo Ju, how did I do?" Fatty Qian's lips were trembling when he spoke. It was obvious that he was in a state of excitement. He was the type who was afraid, yet wanted to show off.

"Not bad!" Luo Xi gave his evaluation very seriously.

Fatty Qian smiled.

To be honest, knocking on doors every time on the first floor was so exciting. He was fully confident that he would die, so he decided to give it a try. The worst that could happen was a loss.

I didn't expect to survive.

Moreover, the goal was achieved.

He even felt a sense of pleasure under the extreme excitement and fear.

"Then continue knocking on the second floor?" Fatty Qian looked expectant.

Luo Xi looked around at this time. At the same time, he and Fatty Qian heard sudden exclamations and screams coming from downstairs, as well as the terrifying laughter of the bird-faced old lady.

"Oh no! Could it be that Brother Mao and Liang Qu have been discovered?" Fatty Qian's face changed.

Luo Xi listened for a while and shook his head: "No, it was someone else."

On the first floor now.

Zhao Sen and others are experiencing an unimaginable horror.

They entered the scene a little late, so they didn't hear the announcement of the time switch, but they were lucky at the beginning and didn't encounter the hide-and-seek child ghost, so they walked smoothly for a while.

Then, I was "lucky" enough to run into the bird-faced old lady who was furious because her things were stolen.

Now, the old lady with the bird face had someone to vent her anger on.

He came up and used scissors to peel off a piece of skin from the body of a person who was remembering his past.

The technique was so fast that Shi Yi had no time to react before he felt a cool sensation on his thigh.

Then came the severe pain.

Unimaginable pain.

A large area of ​​his pants, including the skin, on his thighs was peeled off.

And this was just the beginning of the killing.

Zhao Sen and his men responded immediately and began to fight back.

The cards used are of course cards.

Some can add strength and speed, others can use weapons and props with special abilities, and there is even one that directly summons a 'creature' to enter the scene.

That was a murderer wearing a mask.

You need to pay two types of cards, [Gold] and [Food], to summon it.

As a result, the creature that was placed with high hopes had its neck cut by the bird-faced old woman almost as soon as it came into contact, and blood splattered.

At this moment, Zhao Sen and others also realized that this old lady with a bird face was not someone they could deal with at all.

"Run, run!"

"This old woman is too scary, I can't defeat her!"

"Go over there, to the B-area passage, go to the B-area."

After two people died, the rest of the people started running towards that direction. As for going upstairs, they couldn't because the only entrance to the staircase was blocked by an old lady with a bird face. There was an elevator, but who would dare to take it at this time?

"Give me the skin, give me the skin!"

The bird-faced old lady obviously wouldn't let these people go so easily.

When they ran, she chased them.

And it's very fast.

A memory collector over there saw this and took out three cards.

“【Exorcism】!”

【Magic power】 activates 【exorcism】.

Suddenly a beam of light shot out.

It was like a flashing light bulb that was suddenly turned on, shining blindly. The old woman with the bird face screamed and immediately stepped back and hid.

With the power released by this card, Zhao Sen and others finally escaped to the passage of Area B in a panic.

The second floor.

Luo Xi just heard the receding footsteps and shouting, and guessed the general situation.

"Fat man."

"Luo Ju, I'm here!"

"During the insurance period, you go change your identity now." Luo Xi pointed to a large vat placed in a corner of the second floor: "There is a ghost hiding over there. Go over and open the lid, then tell it that you found it and ask it to go find other people. Then, find a place to hide and come out when you hear the daytime broadcast."

"Okay." Fatty Qian didn't hesitate.

He may not listen to what others say, but Luo Xi said that he will definitely listen and will never ask why.

So Fatty Qian walked over and opened the lid.

There really is a wet and soaking wet child ghost hidden inside.

A stench hit my face.

Enduring the stench, Fatty Qian said, "Ha, ha, I found you. Now it's your turn to find someone else."

"That's great!" The little ghost child was very excited. Although his expression could not be seen from his swollen face, it could be heard from his voice.

I guess it has been hiding in this water tank for a long time.

In fact, from the stench and some children's handprints left on the water tank, it can be seen that there is a little devil hiding here. As for why no one has found it before, it is obviously because this revised scene is open to the public for the first time today.

The little ghost happily went to look for someone.

It saw Luo Xi, but ignored him.

Because Luo Xi's current identity is 'people finder', just like it.

Fatty Qian changed his identity and hid himself again.

Luo Xi calculated the time.

"The only scene with the attribute of earth element that I have experienced before is Youzuo Temple. Scenes with this attribute seem to have a characteristic that they will fit some traditional religious culture as the tone of the scene. In addition, the ghosts here seem to be consistent with the description of ghosts in the Taoist Canon."

Luo Xi was also very curious about the knowledge he had mastered.

This knowledge is like a memory that can be recalled at any time.

But did he really read the Daozang? He couldn't remember.

Maybe, not!

"Day and night are not based on actual time, so there must be some basis for them. They are definitely not randomly designed. The scenes with the attributes of the Earth Element do not have the attributes of chaos. According to my understanding, only scenes with the attributes of chaos can be randomly designed. Anything is possible, but the Earth Element will not."

"So, the hours, day, and night must have a pattern, which may be divided into twelve hours. If we shorten the time and regard one minute as one hour, then the possible time interval between day and night is twelve minutes. If we follow the saying that 'nine is the extreme', it cannot exceed nine, that is, one day and night cycle in nine minutes."

Luo Xi thought of two possibilities at this moment.

And eight minutes have passed since the nightfall report began.

That's why he asked Fatty Qian to change his identity and hide first.

Of course, he himself also had to hurry up and change his identity.

Playing hide-and-seek is essentially about understanding the environment and observing the details.

Before asking Fatty Qian to knock on doors, in addition to seeing if there were ghosts in every household, he also wanted to make sure if there were any ghosts hiding in the house.

At the moment, it seems that there is none.

Even if there are, they are very rare.

Luo Xi has actually locked down several hiding spots. It can be said that there is a high possibility that the little ghost is hiding there.

To switch between the 'seeker' and the 'hider', of course you have to look for the child ghost, especially when it's almost 'daytime'. If you look for your own people to switch identities, it's easy to trap the other party to death.

Walking to an old wardrobe in the corridor, Luo Xi opened the door and took a look.

There were some worn-out clothes inside, but it was obvious that there were no Tibetans.

But Luo Xi could smell a foul odor. In addition, he also found faint handprints on the cabinet door.

It was like some kind of specially-set clue, suggesting that there was a child ghost hiding here.

But there was no one in the cabinet, and there was a drawer underneath.

More than two feet wide and one foot high.

Luo Xi opened the drawer, and inside was a twisted and squeezed body, as if a person had undergone some kind of bone-shrinking skill, or had his limbs forcibly broken, and was stuffed into such a narrow drawer.

The most important thing is that the person inside seemed to have noticed something at this time. He turned his head, revealed his face, and glanced at Luo Xi.

"I found you, now it's your turn to find someone else!"

Luo Xi quickly changed his identity.

The time is about to exceed nine minutes.

Ten seconds left.

Luo Xi silently calculated the time. Ten seconds passed and nine minutes had passed, but he still didn't hear the announcement of the change from day to night.

"Then, it's not nine minutes. In this case, there is a high possibility that it is a twelve-minute rotation. So twelve minutes of day, twelve minutes of night, one day and one night is one day, seven days, a total of 168 minutes, which is less than three hours."

At this time Luo Xi discovered that the child ghost in the drawer did not come out, but just looked at him.

A man and a ghost looked at each other.

"Can't get out? Because the limbs and spine are broken?" Luo Xi made a guess.

He could have just left.

I have changed my identity, so for now I don't have to worry about being killed by the rules during the day and night rotations because of my identity as a 'finder'.

However, Luo Xi did not leave. He thought about it, reached out and pulled the child ghost out.

This process is quite scary.

Firstly, the child ghost's body was badly decayed, and it had broken bones, so the feeling of pulling it up was definitely quite terrifying, especially since the other party's drooping head was staring at you.

The look is fierce.

"In your situation, you can't even crawl, let alone walk. How can you continue playing?" Luo Xi asked.

I didn’t expect the kid ghost to respond.

"I don't want to play, they forced me to play, and they were the ones who stuffed me in." It turned out that the hatred in the ghost child's eyes was real, but it was not directed at Luo Xi.

"Then I'll take you home. Where do you live?" Luo Xi said. If the little ghost didn't lie, he was indeed quite pitiful.

Although, Luo Xi had no sympathy at all.

"Really? Then please take me to the small dining table on the third floor. We all live there." The child's bones were broken, so his head was drooping, swaying from side to side.

When it said 'we', Luo Xi understood it to be the ghost children playing hide-and-seek.

"Okay, I'll take you back!"

Luo Xi did not refuse. Triggering the plot within the scene was a necessary means.

Of course, opportunities and risks always coexist.

"But wait a moment."

Luo Xi calculated the time.

He also needs to verify the time rules for the transition from day to night in this haunted building.

This is very important.

Just over twelve minutes of waiting.

Sure enough, the bell rang again, followed by the announcement voice.

"Please note that the night ends and the day begins!"

"Please note that the night ends and the day begins!"

"Please note that the night ends and the day begins!"

The same thing was broadcast three times in a row.

Basically, it can be heard in every area of ​​the entire haunted building.

Luo Xi knew that at least he had mastered the rules of the transition from day to night here.

"Then you. Uh."

Luo Xi went to see which little ghost child again.

But found that the other person was gone.

Disappear into thin air?
