Chapter 195 Another Way to Pass the Level
Luo Xi's response to this Taoist Mao was very simple and direct. If he was not convinced and kept talking nonsense, then he would just stab him with a pair of scissors. Anyway, it wouldn't be him who would be hurt.

Mao Dao Ren had seen many ruthless people, but to be honest, this was the first time he had seen a psychopath like Luo Xi who remained calm and would stab anyone without changing his expression or heartbeat.

"This guy is more difficult to deal with than a ghost!" This is what Mao Daoren really thought in his heart.

Even some ghosts would be afraid of his identity as a Taoist priest, would be suppressed by his methods, would be bewitched and deceived by him, and become his pawns.

But the man in front of me holding the scissors won't.

And I seem to have seen this pair of scissors somewhere.

It seems to be something belonging to some evil ghost on the first floor.

The Mao Dao people felt that the evil ghost was difficult to deal with. The fact that this man could take the evil ghost's weapon showed that he was a ruthless person.

So it’s not surprising that he fell into this man’s hands.

"What did you ask Zhang Hao to do?" Luo Xi asked.

The scissors were against the opponent's neck, and the sharp feeling made the rabbit tense up.

At the same time, Yu Xiaoru was exploring the house, while Fatty Qian and Brother Mao were still suppressing Taoist Mao.

Beware of the opponent's counterattack.

"Master Dao, no, I, I want to refine the Ghost King. Zhang Hao's little ghost is just a chess piece. It will draw the hexagram seal in a specific direction and position. Once my formation is completed, I can immediately refine the evil ghost inside it and turn it into a Ghost King to be driven by me."

Taoist Mao said so.

"Xiao Ru!"

"Here I come." Yu Xiaoru came over obediently. Luo Xi grabbed her hand and placed it on the handle of the scissors.

"This guy is messing around, just stab him, don't hesitate."

“Okay!” Yu Xiaoru didn’t waste any words. Although she was a woman, she was decisive when it came to fighting. Otherwise, how could she become a senior member of the Awakener Association?

Luo Xi began to explore the house himself.

Soon something was discovered.

A book called "Hidden Ghost".

The content containing the word "Ghost King" indeed involves the refining method, which is the same as what Taoist Mao said.

But in addition to refining the Ghost King, there are other contents, which can be seen to be modified, refined and optimized based on the "Daoist Canon".

If it were someone else, they would definitely be fooled by Taoist Mao, but when it came to Luo Xi, the situation was different.

Luo Xi's memory contained contents about the Daoist Canon. Combining this with what he had seen so far, he immediately came to a conclusion.

"This rabbit is lying. It seems to be very reasonable, but in fact it has loopholes. Its Ghost Collection is misleading. The Taoist Collection is the orthodox one. It talks about eight directions of righteous ghosts: east, south, west, north, and center. There are eight ghosts in total, forty ghosts in total. Only Taoist priests who have received the ordination can be familiar with the directions and names of ghosts and use the Taiqing Jinque secret text to exorcise ghosts. Only then will the ghosts obey orders obediently. But what this Taoist said is to refine a single ghost king."

Luo Xi did not expose the other party.

Thinking about the 'Zhen Gua ()' that Zhang Hao had left on his desk before, it was originally in the east position. Zhang Hao made a note of this mark, obviously intending to carve it somewhere else.

It feels a lot like a normal puzzle being deliberately disrupted.

"This guy is deliberately disrupting the positions of ghosts in all directions, and he is almost successful. That's why it's so chaotic here, with hundreds of ghosts walking at night and no order at all." Luo Xi suddenly realized at this moment.

If he didn't understand the contents of the Taoist Canon, it would certainly not be so easy for him to see through this matter all at once.

So next, Luo Xi thought of another possibility.

"What will happen if the disrupted Eight Directions Ghost Positions are corrected? Could this be another way to pass the level?"

Luo Xi felt that this possibility was very high.

The original requirement for passing "Haunted Mansion" is survival. As long as you survive here for seven days and seven nights, that is, seven rotations of day and night, you can achieve it and get rewards.

But there are so many things buried in this scene.

There are all kinds of evil spirits, as well as the Daoist Canon and Mao Taoist.

Therefore, it is almost 100% certain that there are other clearances, because the scene manager elementary school student said that after surviving for seven days, you can choose whether to leave the scene. If you choose to leave, you will get the ordinary clearance reward, or you can continue to challenge and challenge the elite clearance reward.
Perhaps, unlocking the hidden secrets of "The Haunted Building" and correcting the disrupted positions of the eight ghosts are the requirements for passing the game at the elite level.

At this moment, Luo Xi was eager to try.

After discovering these secret clues, he naturally wanted to achieve elite level clearance, but Luo Xi quickly reacted.

"I came here to find a hypnotist, not to achieve elite clearance."

He clearly distinguished the priorities.

There is not enough time. After noon, his lies will become invalid. Those horrible forbidden memories will immediately bring about unknown backlash and attack Brother Mao. Therefore, he must let the hypnotist hypnotize Brother Mao before this time point to hide that part of the memory.

However, knowing more about this scenario and understanding the rules behind it will also be helpful for finding someone later.

But all this assumes that the hypnotist is still alive.

If you die, everything will be in vain.

At this time, Luo Xi took out his mobile phone and opened the chat group he had set up earlier.

Inside, people were still talking, but their words were incoherent.

This means that ghosts have mixed in and many people have been replaced.

Moreover, some people have noticed this matter. Under normal circumstances, if they are still Shiyi people, if they know that there is something fishy in the chat group, they should not continue to speak, because it is useless to say anything, but will be confused and interfered by the internal ghost.

However, when Luo Xi set up the chat group, he predicted that there might be such a moment.

So he was not surprised by this result.

He created a chat group with another intention, that is, to be able to communicate directly with many "replacers", that is, ghosts.

But right now, Luo Xi has a better plan.

He took a photo of Mao Daoren who was pinned to the ground and sent it to the group.

Not a single word was sent.

This photo was like a bomb, immediately silencing those in the group who were originally talking endlessly.

If it was a person who had not been replaced, they would not have spoken in the first place, and they would have no idea what to say when they saw the inexplicable rabbit photo. And if it was a ghost, there were two possibilities: one who knew Mao Dao Ren, and one who did not. Luo Xi actually just wanted to see what would happen if this photo was thrown into the pond.

Will they catch something?

And the result did not disappoint Luo Xi.

The next moment, his phone rang.

It was a very familiar number. Luo Xi had a good memory and he already knew the contact numbers of several acquaintances around him by heart.

He answered the call and made a gesture to Fatty Qian.

The latter understood and immediately covered Taoist Mao's mouth with his hand.

Luo Xi pressed the speaker button on his phone.

"Qiqi, why are you calling me now?" Luo Xi asked.

The person who called was Lin Qiqi.

This was both expected and unexpected.

Luo Xi knew that the first person to be replaced in their team would be Lin Qiqi, but he didn't expect that the person related to Taoist Mao was also this ghost.

This is very interesting.

There was silence on the other end of the phone.

After a while, a voice was heard. It was exactly the same tone as Lin Qiqi's, but there was not the slightest sense of familiarity in it, only strangeness.

"Don't pretend. You figured it out a long time ago, didn't you? Let's make a deal. You kill the rabbit and I'll tell you where she is."

Hearing this, Luo Xi smiled.

He would have laughed out loud if the situation had not prevented him.

"I will kill this rabbit, and you bring Kan Nan to me alive. Remember, I want the real Kan Nan." Yu Xiaoru had already said the hypnotist's name, so it would be clearer to just say the name.

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds again.

"This woman is devoted to you, but you don't care about her life or death and go find another woman?" The voice actually carried a hint of resentment.

"You also said that she is infatuated with me. What does that have to do with me? Besides, what does it have to do with you?" Luo Xi asked back.

"Hahaha, men are so heartless and shameless." The female ghost's voice was full of ridicule.

"You are not qualified to judge me, and I don't have time to chat with you. Bring the person over here, and I will skin the rabbit in front of you." After saying that, Luo Xi hung up the phone directly.

From beginning to end, he never asked whether Lin Qiqi was dead or alive.

Yu Xiaoru seemed to have heard something. She glanced at Fatty Qian and whispered, "This Lin Qiqi, likes Luo Xi?"

"Yeah." Fatty Qian nodded.

"Luo Xi is indeed a bit ruthless. He was a bit too cold this time. I admit that he is indeed impeccable in terms of intelligence and means. In my opinion, he has surpassed Lin Yixuan. Although Sister An does not agree with my judgment, I am very sure that Luo Xi is very strong and one of the most special memory restorers I have ever seen. But he is too boring and too ruthless. He is a person who will do anything to achieve his goals, like a robot."

Women are emotional, and Yu Xiaoru is the same.

She put herself in Lin Qiqi's shoes and immediately had a lot of opinions about Luo Xi.

Fatty Qian didn't agree with this result at all, and he had an expression that showed he cared for a fool: "Oh, women, why don't you say you are stupid? What did the ancients say? Women are virtuous if they have no talent. I really don't know what's going on in your head."

Yu Xiaoru's face changed, and she said unconvincedly: "What do you mean?"

"What do you mean?" Fatty Qian glanced at Luo Xi at this time and lowered his voice: "You are not a man, you don't understand. I am a man, so I understand Luo Ju. It is because he cares that he cannot ask and even has to act as if he doesn't care at all."

"Why?" Yu Xiaoru was stunned.

The next moment, she seemed to have thought of something and her expression changed.

"You've thought of it, right? I take back what I said just now. You're not stupid, girl. That's right, what's on the other end of the phone? It's a ghost, and it's a ghost that replaced Lin Qiqi. If Luo Ju shows that he cares about Lin Qiqi, then this ghost will definitely use this to make a fuss, or even use it to threaten Luo Ju. Do you understand now? Not paying attention does not mean not caring. On the contrary, this is the highest level of care. Luo Ju, you are worthy of being my idol. Your level of picking up girls is beyond my reach."

"So that's how it is!" Yu Xiaoru reacted and felt mixed emotions. As a result, she put herself in Luo Xi's shoes from the fat woman's perspective and was extremely moved.

“I clearly care about you, but I have to pretend that I don’t care. I have to bear all the pain, suffering and abuse alone.”

Suddenly, Yu Xiaoru's eyes softened a lot.

Luo Xi had no idea about the conversation between the two people. If he knew, he might say, "Are you two going crazy from being idle?"

Because he didn't think that way at all.

First of all, Lin Qiqi is a person who can restore memories. Even if she dies, she can come back to life on the next cycle day. Secondly, Lin Qiqi is not a weak person. Her ability is definitely the strongest among the people who can restore memories around Luo Xi, far surpassing others.

You should know that in the Shiyi circle, Lin Qiqi's nickname is "Seventh Brother".

Therefore, in this kind of situation, Lin Qiqi is very confident that she can protect herself.

Then why worry about it?
