Half Immortal

Chapter 39: Ankang Ancient Town (18)

    In the projection screen, Yan Mingguang had already used a long whip to roll Yan Wei behind him, and turned his hand to block the chasing ghosts.

    This ghost is not very strong, and even retreated two meters under Yan Mingguang's casual blow.

    But the ghost was just repelled, and the surrounding mounds loosened slightly, and one after another, **** skinless ghosts emerged from the mound. It can be seen from the projection alone that these skinless ghosts have men, women and children, and their attack power is much lower than the skinless girl who appeared to kill the player the night before.

    Yan Mingguang can knock back two or three in an instant.

    It looks like they could easily get away under the siege of the Skinless - if it weren't for Yan Wei to cause trouble.

    In the picture, the young man who couldn't see his face screamed for help in a panic, while hiding behind Yan Mingguang obediently at all, but scurrying around like a headless fly. Originally, Yan Mingguang was able to quickly repel these skinless ghosts and left here temporarily, but because Yan Wei was running around everywhere, Yan Mingguang had to take Yan Wei into account every time he made a move, so he couldn't be too ruthless.

    "Who said just now that this Yan Wei might have potential? What potential, is it holding back the potential?"

    "I can't bear to watch it, isn't it good for him to stay behind Yan Mingguang... These skinless ghosts are too weak, and it's up to Yan Wei to hold Yan Mingguang for so long."

    "Yan Wei is really a skinless teammate, I'm dying of laughter."

     "Maybe if they spend a day here, Ning Yi and Lin Zhen can take the lead. Yan Wei is not only a teammate of No Skins, but also a teammate of Ning Yi and Lin Zhen!"

    "I'm just waiting for this Yan Wei to drag him to death."

    “…”

    In the cemetery of the ancient town.

    Yan Wei did it on purpose. It's one thing to confuse the players in the building who are watching Yan Mingguang's live broadcast, and the most important thing is that he is looking at those tombstones.

     

    Yan Mingguang stopped the skinless ghost from approaching, while Yan Wei dodged, he deliberately ran over the surrounding graves, paying attention to the identities of these people and the time of death. When he had almost seen enough, his thoughts turned around, but he still kept a panicked expression on the surface, and shouted: "Yan Mingguang, are we still running!"

    They have cooperated in several crises anyway, and Yan Mingguang understood the meaning of such words instantly.

    The whip wrapped around Yan Wei's wrist and pulled him back to Yan Mingguang.

      They would besiege us, probably because of the "girl's favorite" debuff on me - skinless ghosts are definitely "girls", and if we stay any longer, if all skinless ghosts come out, we won't be able to leave easily. 】Yan Wei's tone gradually became serious, 【Turn off the projection, go back to our room in the temple first, I need to organize my thoughts, I have found a new answer score. 】

    [Good. 】

    Yan Mingguang was just cooperating with Yan Wei. Now that he decided to leave, he turned around and pulled Yan Wei away.

    When the two ran away from the graveyard, the skinless ghosts did not catch up. It's already afternoon, and on this day of the Mountain God Festival, there should be no one wandering around in the town that should be very lively, except for a propped umbrella in front of every door.

    They no longer respect faith, but gradually fear it.

    Before going up the mountain, Yan Wei stood at the foot of the slightly high mountain, turned his head and looked back at Ankang Town.

    Yan Mingguang's projection was closed at the moment, Yan Wei said directly: "Are you saying that they are self-sufficient? Moreover, the so-called belief... They don't believe in and respect mountain gods at all, but worship can bring The expectation of a good vision is an expectation of expectation. When that expectation is absent, and the mountain **** symbolizes death, they are more afraid than anyone else.”

    "Humanity."

    "I'm so sick of this self-inflicted story, but you seem to have a high tolerance for this kind of person?" Yan Wei turned to look at Yan Mingguang, raised his eyebrows, " What did you do before you entered the building? We are all here, so it's not too much to ask."

    Yan Mingguang was silent.

    Yan Wei knew that this person didn't want to talk, and "cut": "It's boring. Then let's go back and sort out the clues, living in such a disgusting town, this kind of place I really don't want to wait any longer."

    Song Yu returned to the mountain temple after a morning of searching to no avail.

    Although there is still Ning Yi as the lowest score at the moment, but Ning Yi's strength is obvious to all. The mysterious and indifferent seed player of the Moonlight Organization was able to find two points alone yesterday, and it is impossible to keep it today. Two points.

    If he gets nothing today, he must be one of the bottom.

    Song Yu saw the death of his roommate on the first night, for fear that he would be the next. He didn't dare to neglect at all, and ran non-stop to several places. But the townspeople were very wary of him. After going down the well, he got lost for a long time and had to come out temporarily. At this moment, he had to go back to the mountain temple to see the clues.

    As soon as he came back, he saw Hu Ayu in a small garden of the mountain temple.

    The beautiful cook has changed out of her embarrassed clothes, wearing a neat long dress in national costumes, with a round hat embellished with jewels on her head, which makes her fair and delicate skin.

    When Song Yu walked to the aisle beside the small garden, she was holding a beautifully made ordinary oil-paper umbrella in her hand, her eyes narrowed, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

    …Could this cook still have some clues that others may not think of?

    Song Yu wanted to try again.

    "Girl!" He stepped forward, pretending to be chatting, "It's been so uneasy recently, why don't you go down the mountain and go home first? Why are you still staying in the temple?"

    The pretty cook turned her head.

    The small garden is surrounded by colorful flowers, making her stand out more and more.

    In such a remote ancient town, she is already a beauty. And according to Hu Ayu's description, she should be twenty-eight years old, but the years seem to have left no trace on her face at all. She seems to be as young as a teenage girl.

    When eating in the kitchen before, Song Yu always thought that Hu Ayu was only about twenty years old.

    However, since the stories told by Hu Ayu were recognized by Lou as rushing to answer points, there must be no problem.

    Song Yu wasn't worried either, he looked at Hu A's rainy eyes, and he seemed to be a little dazed, he unconsciously slowed down his tone: "What are you thinking?"

    "Ah..." The cook finally recovered and glanced at him, "A traveler asked me?"

    "Yeah."

    She lowered her head again, looked at the umbrella in her hand, slender white fingers gently slid over the umbrella body, and said softly, "I miss my loved ones."

    "Your sister? It's been ten years since she was gone, condolences... These are all blames on this **** custom and pedantic goddess. Those who killed her will get retribution sooner or later."

    The beautiful cook raised her head and looked straight at Song Yu.

     Her originally indifferent and somewhat contradictory sad expression changed slightly, and her voice was emphatic: "You said... Who will get the retribution?"

    Song Yu was taken aback: "...the person who killed your sister?"

    The next moment, the cook showed him a gentle smile.

    Song Yu slowly opened his eyes.

    —In front of him, and behind the cook, a **** head slowly protruded out, his hideous face showed him the same soft smile, but the eyes with sticky blood Staring at him deadly.

    The time it took for Yan Wei and Yan Mingguang to return to the Temple of the Mountain was faster than Yan Wei expected.

    Even if Yan Wei's body index is thrown out by Yan Mingguang, he is still a body that has experienced the increase of copy data, which is more than enough for ordinary people. They even walked and ran, but it didn't take much time to return to the mountain temple from the cemetery.

    The area of ​​the guest room is very quiet, and it is still a while before sunset. The other players should still be looking for clues outside, and no one will hear their conversation.

    As soon as the two entered the door, Yan Wei closed the door and said, "I was in the cemetery just now and looked at the death time of all the skinned dead, and found an interesting situation. The deceased in the town is Li Yishu—the man who originally said he wanted to take Hu Ayun away, but he broke up in the end, but the second deceased is a bit interesting."

    Yan Mingguang opened the window, leaned against the window and smoked a cigarette, silently listening to Yan Wei's analysis.

    The breeze in the mountains blew the smoke into a long wisp, and the smoke gradually faded into the air. The westbound sunlight depicts the profile of this man's face, which is indifferent and cold, revealing a rare calm atmosphere in this eerie and gloomy place.

    Yan Wei felt for a moment that, in fact, there are some guesses, and Yan Mingguang may not be ignorant.

    But he continued: "The second deceased is a person who was not mentioned in Hu Ayu's words. There is some information on his tombstone. The work of the mountain temple should be to help the goddess with some chores and so on. I have seen the time of all the dead, except Li Yishu, who died the earliest, this should not be. "

    "It can be seen that Li Yishu was the first to die, and Hu Ayun also turned into a skinless female ghost after her death - I don't know which female ghost we have seen, and because she was alive The first person to kill was the man who didn't take her away. In addition, among the dead, I also saw the groom in the retrospective fantasy we met. I heard the name of the groom and there was a tombstone. It has the same name on it. Although the backtracking fantasy we entered is not the girl of the Hu family, but another girl's, but this also explains the order of murder.

    "This shows that the deceased are actually related to the level of resentment of the ghosts. They resent their lovers, their parents, and their friends... Only as the time gets closer to the present, the deceased begin to appear very big. It doesn't matter, it should be because the people related to them are almost dead. So later, it is useful for the goddess to put an umbrella, because at this time, the skinless female ghost has no special target of resentment. Then, if this is the case, why is one in the mountain god? Ordinary townspeople working in temples will die earlier than Hu Ayun's parents?"

    Yan Mingguang snuffed out the cigarette **** and said plainly, "She hates this person even more."

    "Why hate more? In this story, Hu Ayun especially hates her parents and fiancé, because they were supposed to love her the most, not only did not save her, but also pushed her into the fire pit , only her twin sister Hu Ayu is helping her. What kind of situation can make her hate an outsider who is not related by blood? Don't forget, in the story that Hu Ayu told us, in order to contact Hu Ayun who was locked in the temple , and also bribed the person who worked in the temple, so this person should have helped."

    "The clues announced by Lou also mentioned this," Yan Mingguang said, "lou will not lie."

    "Yes, whether it's the goddess, Hu Ayu, or the townspeople, they are all from Ankang Town, and they may lie to us. Only Lou is impossible to lie to us, I The debuff from 'Girl's Love' is absolutely not wrong, and the story that Hu Ayu said was also recorded and broadcasted to all players, so Hu Ayu bought the person who worked through the temple to contact the twin sisters, and it would never be Incorrect."

    Yan Wei took out the swallow coin in his pocket. This time, he didn't put it in his hands, but threw it hard—

    The man raised his hand and grasped the tossed coin.

    Yan Wei asked: "Front and back?"

    Yan Mingguang didn't even look at it, he threw it back to him and said, "I believe in the side you reasoned."

    Yan Wei chuckled.

    "Then I guess...there is no problem with the story, Hu Ayun was selected because of the rain on the wedding day, but the lover who promised to take her away did not appear. The cook of the Hu family we met before, It is true that he bought the people in the temple back then and contacted his twin sisters. There is no problem with all this, and Lou also rebroadcast this story. The problem is not the truth or falsehood of every sentence, but the... The story the cook told us is actually a mixture of perspectives from two people."

    Yan Wei made a direct conclusion: "The twin sisters were transferred ten years ago."

    He held up the coin, turned the obverse toward Yan Mingguang, pressed his fingertips on the obverse of the coin, and said: "The first half of the story is the story of Hu Ayu, and it was pouring down on her sister's wedding day. Heavy rain was chosen as a tribute to the mountain god, and the kind-hearted twin sister did not want her sister to die tragically, and has been connecting with her lover. Ability to save my sister..."

    He said with a pause and turned the coin to the reverse side, "The second half of the story is from Hu Ayun's point of view. She has nowhere to go, her lover betrays her, her parents want her to accompany the mountain god, and the only thing she looks at is her sister. She couldn't take her away. So she tried to bribe the person who worked in the mountain temple, tricked Hu Ayu to the place where she was imprisoned, and with this person who worked in the mountain temple... exchanged herself with her sister ."

    "The cook we met was not Hu Ayu, but the twin sister, Hu Ayun, who swapped herself and her younger sister ten years ago. The exchange of twins is actually a situation that is not difficult to guess. Affirming the story told by the cook, let us all feel that this is impossible, the stories are all true, and what the cook said must be true. But in fact, there is a mystery hidden in it..."

    "Hey, I'm so stupid, I'm such a gentleman, and I wasted my invitation letter to exchange her hand warmer for her, and ended up getting a debuff. The cook already has a problem, what is the reason for the age stay? It's normal to be eighteen, and the girl mentioned in the debuff is really her."

     Debuff adventure.

    "The story is all right, only the first half is from the perspective of my sister from the front, and the second half is from the perspective of my sister from the opposite."

    Yan Wei tickled the corner of his mouth and stuffed the coin back into his pocket.

    Yan Mingguang glanced at him, it seems that because their relationship is getting better and better, this person is a little more than the conversation they just met: "There is a loophole that needs to be explained, according to the skinless girl Ghost murderers infer this based on the degree of hatred, but if the reasoning is true, according to the hatred degree of skinless female ghost murderers, the first one to die should be the sister who took the place of the dead ghost."

    "This is indeed a paradox, and there must be other reasons for this—"

    Yan Wei's voice froze.

    The sound of the building suddenly sounded in the minds of all players.

    [The progress of the copy has been updated, and players have successfully responded to the relevant clues of the Hu sisters: the name and origin of the goddess. The method of making skin and bone umbrellas in Ankang Ancient Town originated from the Hu family. She often lived in the mountain temple and presided over all sacrifices and worships in the ancient town. The goddess is the daughter of the Hu family. The goddess of the previous generation will train the young daughters of the Hu family as the goddess of the next generation. When the goddess of the previous generation dies, the new goddess will inherit the work and blame of the goddess of the previous generation. The goddess of Ankang Town can also get married and have children, but only the girls who are worshipped to the mountain **** must remain pure. ]

    [The corresponding player who successfully answered the answer will get 1 point for the answer. The rush to answer continues, all players are requested to do their best to rush to answer and try their best to survive. ]

    "Ah, is it Lin Zhenyu Feizhou or Ning Yi?" Yan Wei blinked, "But it helped me directly connect all the guesses. Look, the reason for this paradox is here. -Because Hu Ayun is the next generation of goddess trained by the goddess, but just before she inherited it, she was chosen by accident, and the person who inherited the goddess became her sister. Because of a heavy rain, she was about to prepare The revered heir to the goddess became the offering to be placed on the altar.

    "The things in the story happened later, Hu Ayun ran out and became Hu Ayu, and because of the sorcery she knew, she successfully manipulated the dead girls' bodies and skin umbrellas , firstly killed the lover who betrayed her, and secondly killed the townsman who worked in the temple who knew that she had actually negotiated with her sister. The townspeople did not know this, and thought it was the impure tribute that made the mountain **** angry and hated even more Hu Ayun - in their eyes, that is Hu Ayu."

    The voice just fell, and the prompt sound that had just sounded not long ago reappeared in Yan Wei's mind.

    [Congratulations to the player for cracking the secret of the Hu family. As the first player to discover the clue, you will get rewards: Perception 6, Body Index 6, Points 8. ]

    [You earned 3 additional rush points. ]

    [You currently have a total of 7 rush points, ranking first among the players in this dungeon. Players are requested to make persistent efforts to survive. ]

    Yan Mingguang also got these three points. This is the result of the joint efforts of Yan Wei and Yan Mingguang. Both of them got extra points. At this moment, they are both tied for the first place with 7 points.

    —and this clue actually deserves three rush points and a high amount of data rewards!

    Yan Wei's expression moved, and he smiled: "With such a high reward, it seems that we are close to the final clue. Now that we have come this far... So where is the ladder? What to do to - end this copy?"

    "I have to break the game quickly, I always feel that I will be attacked at any time because of this rotten peach blossom debuff."
