Half Immortal

Chapter 32: Ankang Ancient Town (11)

    Yan Mingguang did not hide.

    Yan Wei stabbed the dagger neatly and quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the dagger pierced into Yan Mingguang's lower abdomen.

    At the moment when the dagger completely submerged into Yan Mingguang's lower abdomen, the surrounding chaos suddenly froze. The pouring rain stopped at this moment, the sound of rain and noise seemed to be swallowed up by something, and everything was quiet.

    Behind the crowd, the young girl holding an umbrella and carrying a skinless ghost had a slight expression on her back, and the originally gentle and moving smile slowly dissipated.

    She cried. And on her back, the hideous skinless ghost actually retracted the fierce expression, and the **** face showed a smile.

    Yan Mingguang's lower abdomen that was pierced by the dagger did not shed any blood.

    The next moment, the sound of the building sounded in their minds.

    [Congratulations to the player for successfully cracking the ghost's regrets during his lifetime, get rewards: Perception 1, Points 1. ]

    An additional prompt sounded in Yan Wei's mind: [Congratulations to the player for getting the dungeon drop item: flower ball. Permanent props, available in any dungeon. The red satin woven flower ball entrusts the last beauty left by the girl's wedding. It can heal wounds. The healing range is all damage that is not instantly fatal. Each dungeon can only be used twice. ]

    A strange scene flashed in front of the two of them again. When everything was calm, Yan Wei and Yan Mingguang opened their eyes again, and they were already familiar with the underground cave.

    There is still only a dim light around, and some cool winds from the caves down the well. The place where Yan Mingguang was stabbed by Yan Wei was even more unscathed. Yan Wei held the shiny dagger in one hand and the long whip around his wrist in the other hand.

    —they're out of Retrospect.

    Beside them, Lin Zhen and Yu Feizhou were still there. However, the two of them stood there with their eyes closed, with occasional movements in their hands, apparently still retracing the illusion.

    Yan Wei remembered the scene just now, and he secretly said as expected.

    He and Yan Mingguang were in the wedding, one was substituted into the role of the bride—that is, the skinless girl before her death—and the other was substituted into the role of the groom, walking out from the two holding the red satin, Yan Wei felt that something was wrong.

    A reenactment of a Specter's death scene requires two people. If Yan Wei didn't get through this, and when he came to the scene of death, he would experience the same way of dying as a girl, which is normal, but what about Yan Mingguang?

    According to logic, the two of them did not crack the retrospective fantasy, and both of them would die of skinning and dismantling, but Yan Mingguang's role was indeed the girl's new husband. The girl's retrospective fantasy will not pull an insignificant character into it. Just like those townspeople, the insignificant characters are created in the fantasy, and will only repeat what the girl saw before her death.

    The newlywed husband must be a character related to breaking the game, so he will pull two people in.

    From this point of view, it seems that the method of cracking is obvious - that is, under the obstruction of the townspeople and the obstruction of the goddess who wants to bring people back to the temple, they still continue to complete the wedding.

    Yan Wei had this idea when she was told that she was going to complete the wedding with Yan Mingguang.

    But when the two of them came out, when the rain poured down, tragedy began to happen, and he gradually understood the role of the "new husband". Especially at the moment when the townspeople of Ankang Town gathered around to capture him, he was completely sure of his guess.

    Whether it is from the words of the townspeople, the attitude towards Yan Wei, or the reaction of the goddess, in the eyes of those people, it seems that the "girl" - that is, Yan Wei at that time - Offering it to the mountain god, the only obstacle is that the girl is unwilling. From beginning to end, there was no mention of the "girl"'s husband in the scolding.

    An 18-year-old newly married girl was about to be offered a stone by the townspeople because of the sudden downpour. Her reaction at that time was unwilling.

    She doesn't want to die, so she definitely won't follow the goddess to the mountain temple obediently, she must have tried to escape.

    Then she must turn to her new husband.

    But there was no such man in the eyes of the townspeople and the goddess. Why not?

    Because her husband… did not help her. Perhaps not only did he not help her, but he even helped other people in the town to personally put the **** the rack, so that the girl could innocently accept the fate of being skinned and dismantled.

    That's why the pretty girl was smiling all the time, while the skinless ghost who symbolized the girl's appearance after her death and who was lying on the girl's body when she was alive has a hideous face.

    She was staring at them all the time.

    Before her death, she smiled and looked forward to the wedding. After her death, when she saw Yan Wei, who represented her life, and Yan Mingguang, who represented her new husband before her death, she was fierce and evil. Wearing the red silk of the two.

    Her regret is not that she could not live, nor that she could not complete the wedding, but that the husband who pushed her to the rack did not die together.

    Combining with the secrets about the ancient town they learned in the retrospective fantasy, where is the strange place in Ankang ancient town, and why the white umbrellas made of skin and bones of these girls exist, there is a complete logic chain.

    After Yan Wei and Yan Mingguang said this briefly through the long whip, there was no Lou's prompt sound in their minds.

    This clue must have at least one point for the answer, which is related to the **** customs of Ankang ancient town for many years, and may even have more than one point for the answer. But even though they saw it on the spot, they also communicated in their hearts through the long whip, and the prompt for the quick answer still didn't sound.

    But Yan Wei told Yan Mingguang through the whip in the morning, and then Yan Mingguang removed the dead player's bed board, and the rush point was counted on both of them at the same time.

    Yan Wei had a concept in his heart.

    The calculation of the answering points must have certain practical actions - say it, or do it. And as long as it is said and done, if there are two or three people working together, then even if it is said or done by only one person, the score for the answer will be counted for everyone.

    But if everyone who knows the clue just knows it, but doesn't express it, then the building will not judge that they have got the rush score, and the rush score is still unclaimed.

    This rush score is still there, as long as Yan Wei or Yan Mingguang expresses all the inferences just now, they can get rush score at any time.

     But Yanwei did not do this.

      】Yan Wei glanced at Lin Zhen and Yu Feizhou, 【With their strength, it's only a matter of time before they break the game, I don't want them to get the score first... 】

      】

    Yan Mingguang just picked up a stone and planned to hit Lin Zhen's forehead, but Lin Zhen suddenly opened his eyes and said the unfinished words in the fantasy: "...Hey, you put The projection perspective is closed, right? I'm also closed, you can kiss soon. Hey, can't this fantasy be a little more violent and bloody, what kind of fun is a wedding that has been quiet in the years-"

    His voice came to an abrupt end.

    Lin Zhen blinked and confirmed the scene in front of him, and Yu Feizhou also opened his eyes.

    The two were automatically kicked out of the Backtracking Fantasy.

    "Yan Wei? Yan Mingguang?" Yu Feizhou frowned slightly, "I just received a reminder that this retrospective illusion has been completely cracked and disappeared, and both Lin Zhen and I were automatically ejected. of?"

    Lin Zhen raised his eyebrows: "We came out now? What a waste of all the psychological construction I did just now. How did you come out? Come and see?"

    Yan Wei still intends to keep the score for this part, and the lies come: "What is the retrospective fantasy? We don't know why we arrived in the ancient town, a group of people wanted us to have a wedding, and there was a girl The ghost kept staring at us. Finally, I kissed Yan Mingguang and we came back."

    His light brown eyes shone with sincerity, and he looked well-behaved and smart.

    Lin Zhen frowned: "You kiss Yan Mingguang? Why are you both the bridegroom's role and I was assigned the bride??"

    Besides, Yan Mingguang just raised his eyes slightly and glanced at Yan Wei, but did not expose Yan Wei's words that put their two characters in reverse.

    Yu Feizhou smiled: "Then it seems that you may have broken the regret of this retrospective fantasy by mistake." He thought that Yan Wei and Yan Mingguang did not understand, and briefly introduced Back to the existence of fantasy.

    Yan Wei pretended to be as serious as listening to it for the first time.

    After a few people left the illusion, they continued to walk inside silently. Yan Wei paid special attention to it. Fang Cai Lin Zhen and Yu Feizhou were probably trying to get through the episode of the bride and groom kissing the bride, and they didn't want other players to see it, so they turned off the projection angle of the casino building, and the two didn't touch after that. The black ring should have never been opened again.

    In other words, except for the four of them, other players in the world in the building don't know what will happen at the bottom of the well.

    Lin Zhen's character, wishing to see others shriveled, there is no hidden danger.

    Yu Feizhou... At first he and Yan Mingguang couldn't see through this person, but now it seems that because of his strength, Yu Feizhou doesn't think about conspiracy and intrigue. Things - exactly as Lin Zhen said, too naive Virgin Heart.

    It's not that he can't see through, it's that this person is really useless to see through.

    Yan Wei came to the conclusion that there would be no problem with the three people in the well except him.

    He made it clear, thinking that he would need to come forward when he found the goddess. The projections of the four people were closed, and he had nothing to pretend.

    After breaking the retrospective fantasy, they never encountered any danger, but there were more and more forks. Even with Lin Zhen's arrows, there were too many deep passages. Their detection at short distances is no longer enough.

    Yan Wei took a flashlight and lit up the front, and it was a fork in the road again.

    "I can't try it," Lin Zhen spread his hands, "the echoes of the arrows are similar."

    Yan Wei bumped Lin Zhen with her elbow: "You can use the invitation letter to exchange some insect-inducing and de-worming things at the mall."

    "Why do you want me to change your cleanliness? Go to your Yan Mingguang."

    "I'm not a clean freak," Yan Wei chuckled lightly, "I'm here to find a way, we'll come up with ideas, shouldn't you send some invitations?"

    "Yo, do you have a way? Let's hear it."

     Lin Zhen's voice has not yet finished, Yu Feizhou has reached out his hand and handed out two jars of medicinal powder to Yan Wei: "If you have an idea, give it a try, I just exchanged it, and it doesn't cost any invitation. Letter, it doesn't matter if it's useless. Lin Zhen doesn't block his words, don't take it to heart."

    Yan Wei took the powder: "Thank you."

    He didn't delay, put on a new pair of gloves, hung the flashlight on the pocket of the windbreaker, squatted down and started busy.

    Lin Zhen glanced at Yu Feizhou: "Are you good at talking?"

    "I just think that Yan Wei is very good, he is not stupid," Even in such a deep and treacherous environment, Yu Feizhou's voice was still clear and calm, "Let him try and fail. Now, a few invitation letters are nothing to me. Yan Wei is not very strong, we can protect as much as we can."

    Lin Zhen: "…"

    He put away his longbow, crossed his arms, and asked, "Be well-behaved?"

    "Yeah."

    "Not stupid?"

    "Yeah."

    "Not very powerful?"

    “…?”

    "Asylum?"

    "What are you trying to say?" Yu Feizhou was taken aback.

    Lin Zhen just smiled playfully.

    Yan Wei had already sprinkled several forks on the ground with insect-inducing powder. He slowly got up and said, "Because the bottom of this well is wet, it is underground. There are a lot of worms in bits and pieces, and there will only be more hidden in the crevices of the rocks. There must be a lot of worm nests here. I sprinkled insect-inducing powder at each fork, and a large number of worms will come out from all directions after a while. come out."

    He said, he had already opened the jar of deworming powder, and first sprinkled some on Yan Mingguang. The other party didn't move either, just let him scatter like that.

    After dispersing, Yan Wei began to sprinkle on himself with disgust and helplessness, and then said: "After they are attracted, they will feel the insect repellent powder on our body and then disperse, we You can see the trajectory of their return to the nest."

    Lin Zhen also sprinkled a little on himself with suspicion: "Let them in and drive them away, where are you playing bugs?"

    "..." Yan Wei gave the insect repellent powder to Yu Feizhou again, "They must instinctively return to the nest when they leave, we can roughly see which fork has the least insects - that place hides There must be the fewest wormholes. The worms here are not evil, just ordinary little worms, afraid of people. If the goddess often goes back and forth at the bottom of the well, their nests must be avoided in places where people often travel."

    The bug-attracting powder sprinkled on the ground has attracted many different types of bugs.

    The four of them have even seen ghosts, so this kind of bug that can't hurt people naturally can't scare them.

    Sure enough, as Yan Wei said, after the surrounding insects crawled out in groups, when they were close to the four, they were driven back by their insect repellent powder. Before Yan Wei opened his mouth, Yan Mingguang took out a few matches, lit them and threw them into the place where the insect-inducing powder was sprinkled, destroying the powder.

    The attracted bugs followed their instincts and scattered, but there was only one road where the bugs were the least visible to the naked eye.

    Yan Wei and Yan Mingguang walked forward without saying a word.

    Yu Feizhou's expression changed again and again. From the beginning, he just let Yan Wei try it at will, until he was surprised when he found out that Lu Zhen came out, and finally smiled: "You are so smart. Let's go ahead? We can protect you even if something happens."

     

    They encountered several forks again, Yan Wei repeated this method to choose the road. The footsteps of the four people intertwined, echoing slightly in the narrow cave, but after a while, a low and hoarse singing suddenly came from the front.

    "The stars are up, the moon is up..."

    "This is a mountain and river bestowed by God, this is a fertile field, this is a blessing from heaven..."

    "It will rain, it will rain, the crops will grow..."

    "We've got our umbrella..."

    “…”

    "The stars are up, the moon is up..."

    “…”

    —This is the voice of the goddess.

    Yan Wei and the others did not need to communicate at all.

    This time, they didn't have to go far at all, the goddess's singing became louder and louder, and they saw that the road ahead became wider and wider, and finally stopped in front of a huge cave.

    Yan Wei stood behind Yan Mingguang and saw the situation ahead.

    This seems to be the innermost part of the cave at the bottom of the well. Except for their road, there is no other road in sight. At the end of the road is the place where the goddess is.

    The big cave was decorated like a house, with a few candles lit around it, but perhaps because of fear of lack of oxygen, only a few candles were lit, and the candlelight swayed slightly in the wind in the ground.

    The place where the goddess stood was in the middle of the cave. In front of her was a desk, and knives and various tools of different sizes were neatly arranged beside the table. And the center of the table…

    —It was the human skin that was spread out, and the human bones that were still stained with blood.

    "The stars are up, the moon is up..."

    “…”

    "We've got our umbrella..."

    The goddess sang this song dedicated to the mountain **** with a solemn face, holding some material in her hand, as if she was dealing with human skin.

    [She is making a skin-bones umbrella, it seems that she went down this time not just to drag the skin-bones umbrella that ran back out again,] Yan Wei grabbed the whip and said to Yan Mingguang in her heart , [She still came down to make a skin-bones umbrella. This skin and bone...should belong to the player who died yesterday. 】

    【What are you going to do? 】 Yan Mingguang asked him.

    After going down the well, although the two of them didn't say anything, Yan Mingguang's trust in Yan Wei was obviously higher.

    He seems to be very relieved about Yan Wei's behavior, and there is no doubt that Yan Wei must have a plan in his heart.

    Yan Wei really has a plan in his heart.

    This was planned from the moment he knew the rush-answer mode appeared.

    On the other side, Lin Zhen stared at the goddess intently, his dark red pupils were full of curiosity - he seemed to be quite interested in the process of making an umbrella, and he enjoyed watching it.

    Yu Feizhou was hiding behind the rock wall like Yan Wei. He looked at Yan Wei and Yan Mingguang. Although he didn't speak, his eyes were obviously asking if Yan Mingguang wanted to take action.

      】Yan Wei slightly raised the corners of his mouth, 【Go ahead, we tied the goddess. 】

    The next moment, the long whip tied to Yan Wei's left wrist shook, and the tail of the whip was retracted. Yan Mingguang grabbed the handle of the whip, raised his foot, turned over, and jumped up and threw out the long whip!

    In the rustling sound of the long whip, the tail of the whip fell, and the tool in the hands of the goddess was accurately swung away.

    "yan, why did you take action so quickly? What if there is a death trigger?" Yu Feizhou also ran out immediately, "Yan Wei, you hide behind first, Lin Zhen and I Go and help Yan Mingguang—"

    He stopped suddenly.

    Just now he let the hiding young man step forward without hesitation, and he took out a thick hemp rope from nowhere. After Yan Mingguang slammed the goddess to the ground, Yan Wei also ran to the goddess and tied the rope to the goddess neatly.

    The candles swayed a little more because of the airflow driven by their movements, but the goddess just looked at them in panic, the old body did not have much resistance, Yan Wei easily smashed the goddess Tied up completely.

    Seeing that the goddess was about to open her mouth, Yan Wei was worried that the old man would give them a rush point when he opened his mouth. .

    “Mmmm…umm…umm…”

    The goddess was blocked so much that she could not speak, Yan Wei could see clearly that what he had just crumpled up was a piece of human skin still stained with blood on the table.

    Yan Wei: “…”

    fortunately he was wearing gloves.

    Yu Feizhou looked at Yan Wei with surprise: "Yan Wei, you... how are you..."

    Lin Zhen didn't seem to have any plans to take action from the beginning to the end. At this moment, he folded his arms leisurely and looked down at the tools on the table: "It's too rude to the elderly, and it doesn't respect the old love at all. Young. Oh, what a pity, you interrupted the goddess, I can't learn how to make a skin-bones umbrella, this thing looks quite fun..."

    Yan Wei was too lazy to talk about Lin Zhen's neuropathy.

    He tightened the body tied to the goddess, and pulled the goddess, who was tied with five flowers and had human skin in her mouth, from the ground.

    The obedient and docile expression just now completely faded away at this moment, his eyes were deep, and he said decisively: "We have also finished investigating the bottom of the well, I'll be honest, I have already speculated about the clues underneath. Eighty-nine are not far from ten. I also know the origin of the skin-bone umbrella in the retrospective fantasy we entered just now. And this goddess should know all the details I speculated, and even more, the skin-bone umbrella, the well and the ancient town of Ankang, there are at least three Points to answer points..."

    He looked at Yu Feizhou and Lin Zhen, and vividly portrayed turning his face and ignoring people: "You two, Ming people don't speak secretly, I not only want to bring the goddess up, after I go up, I also need You help me use the goddess to do one thing - I want to take the initiative to deal with Jiang Xiu. You promise, you will all share in the three points. But if we can't talk about it now..."

    Yan Wei picked up a sharp blade on the table and pointed the tip of the blade directly to the carotid artery of the goddess.

    He smiled and said, "If we can agree, the four of us have the three points. If we can't agree, I will kill the goddess now, and Yan Mingguang and I will take the three points. "

    Yu Feizhou: "???"

    Yu Feizhou was completely stunned.

    His warm face was dull at the moment, and his eyes fell on Yan Wei, both shocked and confused.

    Lin Zhen, who had long expected this scene, picked up the tool of the producer's leather umbrella and played with it, while gloating softly: "Nice?"

    Yu Feizhou: "…."

    "Not stupid?"

    “….”

    "Not very powerful?"

    “….”

    "Asylum?"

    “….”

    Lin Zhen put down the knife in his hand, turned around and glanced at Yan Wei, who was dragging the goddess, and Yan Mingguang, who was protecting him. He looked at Yu Feizhou's expression again, and sighed again. He smiled and said, "Seeing your reaction, my heart is balanced and I am very happy."
