Half Immortal

Chapter 44: Ankang Ancient Town (End)

    Do it yourself.

    From the moment Ning Yi uttered these four words, Yan Wei began to think about what kind of way to break the game.

    —It must be related to the phalanx. Otherwise, these things would not appear here inexplicably without the slightest effect.

    There are two types of phalanges: the phalanx of a girl and the phalanx of a common deceased killed by a girl. The role of the girl's phalanx is very clear, it is used to deal with Hu Ayu, and each phalanx can resist some attacks from skinless ghosts to a certain extent. The common deceased's phalanx has an unknown function. Yan Wei confirmed the function of the deceased's phalanx through Jiang Xiu's death.

    On the contrary to the phalanx of the girl, the function of the phalanx of the common deceased is to attract skinless ghosts.

    Such a thing that will bring disaster on the player is not intended for the player.

    What is the purpose of the ordinary deceased phalanx?

    Ning Yi said that the only way she found to break the game was the word "self-inflicted" and did not mention anything else. At the juncture of life and death, Ning Yi wouldn't hide anything, then, these four words were enough for the hint of breaking the game.

    Yan Wei thought about it for a while, and finally understood completely when she looked at Hu Ayun's young and beautiful face.

    Why is Hu Ayun's face still the same as ten years ago? Why is there no incense in the mountain temple when the 10-year Mountain God Festival comes, and there are not many townspeople even going up and down the mountain? Why does Ankang Ancient Town clearly have so many stories related to the Mountain Temple, but after their players enter the dungeon, Ankang Ancient Town seems to have nothing to do with the Mountain Temple?

    Also... Why is it that on such an uneasy day, in a haunted ancient town, adults no longer come to the temple, but children come to the temple on time day after day to read in the temple?

& nbsp;

    From the beginning to the end, they only knew that Hu Ayun, as the successor of the goddess, knew some ancient evil methods. But they don't know what this evil method of controlling skinless ghosts and gaining power is.

    This is Hu Ayun's evil method.

    No wonder there are about 800 people in Ankang Town, and there are more than 800 phalanges of the deceased.

    Ankang Town has no living people for a long time. Whether it was the skinless ghost who was skinned to the bone, or the townspeople and children who seemed to be still active, they were actually killed by Hu Ayun. Some of them became skinless ghosts, some continued to maintain normal living conditions, and the children kept repeating the act of coming to the temple to go to school - they would never grow up.

    Hu Ayun divided all the dead townspeople into the "dead" half - the skinless ghosts, the remaining half became the walking dead with a little consciousness - the townspeople, put everyone's time Stopped ten years ago and reached a kind of support and circulation of strength. So no matter how much damage they do to Skinless, Skinless will be back to normal after a while.

    Because behind every skinless ghost, there is a "living" townsman as the real source of power.

    Time freezes and power cycles back and forth, so she is hard to kill, almost undefeated. For ten years, Hu Ayun has been taking revenge on this village, not letting them know that they have been controlled by evil law for a long time, torturing the nerves of other people. The goddess thought that putting umbrellas to attract ghosts was actually just a tool for Hu Ayun to intimidate the goddess and the townspeople. It is easy for foreign travelers to discover these secrets, so she also wants to kill the townspeople one by one according to the rules she made.

    Her secret is the secret of the entire ancient town.

    Then, in addition to directly dealing with Hu Ayun and killing her, they have another way to go, which is to completely destroy the source of Hu Ayun's power.

    "Destroying the ancient town can also kill you," Yan Wei copied his pocket with one hand, his eyes were sharp and his tone was calm, "As long as your source of power is cut off, that is, the people in the town" Just die. But you don't really worry about them, which means they are the same. We kill them, and they should be revived due to the cycle soon. The way to kill them...is Do it yourself."

    "Then it can be connected. The only one who can end this evil law is the evil law itself, and the only one who can end these ghosts and you is your own evil law. Yan Mingguang and the others did not run away. , but holding the phalanx of an ordinary dead man and breaking your evil law."

    At that time, after Yan Wei finished his analysis, he directly passed the information panel and gave all the more than 800 phalanges stored on his side to Yan Mingguang. Afterwards, Yan Mingguang took Lin Zhen and the others down the mountain to Ankang Ancient Town, and at the fastest speed, all the more than 800 phalanges were quietly placed on the townsman's body - the number was just right, also more than 800 townspeople.

    Skinless felt the existence of the phalanx, and came after it, skinning those townspeople.

    They used the evil habits of generations to torture so many innocent girls, and in the end they also experienced the same pain and suffered from it.

    Hu Ayun's source of power was cut to this point, the stagnant time in Ankang Town began to flow, and she returned to her normal appearance at the age of 28.

    The rotting corpse of the skinless female ghost rotted into the mud little by little, and the stench rushed into Yan Wei's nose. He frowned and raised his hand to cover the end of his nose.

    Hu Ayun didn't seem to notice these smells, he just looked at Yan Wei with a negative eye, and said, "I only think of you as a pastime, but I didn't expect it to be a biting pastime. Why do you want to Appearing here... I've been like this for ten years, and I'm used to it..."

    She laughed a few times, the laughter echoed in the mountains and forests, she said: "Brother Yan, you are so smart, you are right. But it's a pity... You think, my Has the source of power been cut off?"

    Before she finished speaking, she suddenly jumped forward, threw Yan Wei directly to the ground, and grabbed Yan Wei by the neck!

    Ankang Ancient Town.

    Yan Mingguang and others stood on a high platform in the ancient town, looking at the ancient town that had turned into an Asura hell.

      When a townsman was completely skinned to the bone, the screams stopped, and the skinless ghost who was beside the townsman rotted away instantly—they perished together.

    The ancient town, saddled with ugly customs, washed away in blood, destroying itself little by little.

    The blood flowed through the oil-paper umbrellas placed in front of the door, and the rancid smell filled the sky.

    Yu Feizhou carried Song Yu on his back, as if he couldn't bear to see such a scene, and lowered his eyes and said nothing.

    Yan Mingguang looked at the direction of the mountain from a distance, frowning slightly.

    Lin Zhen looked around, casually fiddled with the pitch-black longbow in his hand, and said, "That's not right, the skinless ghost was attracted by the phalanx and peeled off all the townspeople, Hu Ayun should Losing power, everything in the ancient town will be terminated because of destruction - what about the stairs?"

    Did they...miss something they didn't notice?

    Yan Wei and Hu Ayun's hands came from the walkie-talkie!

    Yan Mingguang's eyes moved, and without saying a word, he turned around and jumped off the high platform.

    Lin Zhen shouted towards Yan Mingguang, who was dripping blood from under the high platform and left quickly: "You want to go up the mountain to help Yan Wei? It's too late, it will be dark in ten minutes!"

    Yan Ming's bald head did not return.

    Yan Wei's voice suddenly came from the walkie-talkie: "Yan Mingguang, are you sure that nothing is missing?"

    Yan Mingguang paused.

    "No, the Skinless and the people in town are dead."

      Yan Wei seized the opportunity, grabbed the opponent's slender wrist tightly with one hand, and smashed the girl's phalanx at Hu Ayun with the other.

    Hu Ayun stepped back abruptly, his face grim: "Why didn't you die!"

    Yan Wei got up and took out the item he got from the first instance - the eye of the skeleton.

    Through the eye of the skeleton, he saw the thick black gas lingering around Hu Ayun, which was a symbol of danger. He took a few steps back and looked at her: "You still have the power to kill me instantly, the evil law has not been broken..."

    He raised his hand and touched the walkie-talkie lightly, and asked, "Yan Mingguang, are you sure that nothing is missing?"

    "No, the Skinless and the people in town are dead."

    Hu Ayun has rushed over again.

    Yan Wei raised his hand sideways, neatly blocking the hand with fingernails that could instantly pierce flesh.

    There are no skinless female ghosts, and ordinary skinless ghosts have disappeared, only one has returned to the twenty-eight-year-old Hu Ayun, the fight between them has become savage and primitive .

    But after a while, Yan Wei and Hu Ayun became entangled and rolled several times on the muddy and rancid land.

    In the struggle, Yan Wei successfully stabbed the dagger into Hu Ayun's body, but as soon as the dagger was pulled out, the wound on Hu Ayun's body was slowly healing. His body had also been scratched several times by Hu Ayun's fingernails. The pain and the rancid smell stimulated Yan Wei's nerves. He grabbed the hand that Hu Ayun stretched out again, suppressing all emotions in his mind and thinking rationally. on.

    Hu Ayun is like this, obviously he can't be killed. And only the last bit of the sun was left hanging on the mountain, and it was about to get dark - it was about to be Hu Ayun's home court.

    What's the problem? Why isn't the copy over yet?

    His method is not wrong, but this evil method has not been completely broken.

    The first thing Yan Wei thought about was whether he had missed any townsman.

      Even if there are missing townspeople, there must be missing phalanges. In the entire ancient town, apart from Hu Ayun, who is still alive, there are only him, Yan Mingguang, Lin Zhen, Yu Feizhou, Ning Yi and Song Yu.

    Anything other than the boss is the player - the player... not right!

    In another tumbling room, Yan Wei turned his head to avoid Hu Ayun's offensive, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

    In his mind, all the details since entering the dungeon flashed like a flash, and finally stopped at the picture of seeing Song Yu and others outside the guest room yesterday evening.

    At that time, Kong Yuwei and Lu Ya supported Song Yu who was seriously injured. He exchanged a bottle of wound medicine and handed it to Song Yu, but Song Yu, whose left arm and shoulder were all bloody, raised his left hand to take it. After saying thank you, there was no response at all the rest of the time. But when all the players were eating together before, Song Yu used his right hand to hold the chopsticks.

    He's not a left-handed, and his left side is injured, so why not use his dominant right hand to pick things up? Song Yu has a problem with his right hand.

    All phalanges are from the right hand of the deceased.

    "Yu Feizhou! Are you still carrying Song Yu?"

    On the other end of the walkie-talkie, Yu Feizhou was stunned: "Yes, but he didn't respond."

    "Song Yu died yesterday! Put him down quickly, you are carrying the last skinless ghost that has not been made into a skin umbrella, the skin and bones are still on his body, cut him Get off his right tail phalanx!"

    As soon as Yan Wei's words came out, Hu Ayun's still confident expression suddenly changed.

    On the high platform of Ankang Ancient Town.

    Yu Feizhou was startled, and then suddenly threw Song Yu to the ground.

    In an instant, "Song Yu", who seemed to be dying and unresponsive, suddenly opened his eyes, his skin was chapped, and blood flowed from all over his body.

    "Song Yu" jumped up and attacked Yu Feizhou with a ferocious face.

     

    Yu Feizhou kicked the skinless ghost off the platform.

    Lin Zhen grabbed the finger that flew out from the side, and the next moment, the finger rotted away in his hand in an instant, leaving only a pale phalanx.

    —this is the last phalanx!

    If they threw Song Yu directly into the mountain temple, even if they desperately rushed to the mountain temple, it would be too late. Yu Feizhou's temporary kindness made Yan Wei guess the last key, and the rest of the people easily got the last phalanx.

    Under the high platform, the last skinless ghost began to climb up.

    Lin Zhen looked at the things in his hand and said, "There is one more phalanx, but all the townspeople are dead, where is the townsman corresponding to this phalanx? Put the phalanx on the townsman, the corresponding The Skinless will kill the townspeople under the attraction of the phalanx, and then follow the death and decay of the townspeople, but now there is not one more townsman, but one more phalanx, the Skinless has not died, and the cycle has not ended. "

    On the walkie-talkie, Yan Wei came in a breathless but firm voice: "Mountain God! Mountain God Stone Statue!"

    Ning Yi and Yu Feizhou froze, Yan Mingguang who was under the high platform raised his eyes and looked halfway up the mountainside.

    Only the last minute of the sun remains.

    Lin Zhen faced the direction of the mountain temple, slowly raised the pitch-black longbow in his hand, and a pitch-black arrow feather rested on the bowstring.

    He fixed his phalanx to the tip of the arrow, hooked the corner of his lips, and slowly closed his eyes.

    "It's quite exciting..." Lin Zhen muttered to himself, "It's the first time I've tried such a long distance."

     

    The last skinless ghost moved, disappeared in the ancient town, and appeared in front of the stone statue of the mountain temple.

    It pounced towards the stone statue of the mountain **** with grinning teeth, and went to destruction together with this "last townsman".

    The stone statue of the mountain **** shattered, and the skinless ghost rotted and died.

    Beside the well in the deep mountain, Yan Wei stabbed the dagger into Hu Ayun's heart. He tickled the corners of his **** mouth and said softly, "I told you, I won't let myself be thrown into the fire."

    Hu Ayun's movements were stagnant, his eyes widened, and his expression was full of disbelief.

    This time, her wound will never heal, and there will be no new skin umbrellas in the entire ancient town.

    Her body fell stiffly.

    “How could it be…” she said.

    The evil law is completely over, and the ancient town, which has been enshrining a lifeless stone statue with skin and bones for generations, was finally destroyed by the same method of death. The grievances of the girls who were used as sacrifices slowly dissipated along with the smell of decay, and every townsman screamed in hoarse to pay homage to the dead girls. Hu Ayun resented this town and hoped to be relieved from his sister's tolerance, but in the end he only got a last wish in his sister's retrospective fantasy that he wished her to die, and died together with this town at this moment.

    Do it yourself.

    The sun is fading, the last bit of the sun is completely set, and the night is coming.

    The dark stairs silently extended out of the night and appeared in front of everyone.

    On the walkie-talkie, the voices of the other people came one after another.

    Yu Feizhou said goodbye to him, Lin Zhen sneered and said to him "it's fun to have a copy with you", Yan Mingguang said that he would be waiting for him in the world inside the building.

    Ning Yi's voice was as cold as ever: "I owe you a favor for this copy, thank you, I won't tell your secret. But next time we meet, we will still be enemies."

    "Next time I won't take it lightly, you are an opponent worth taking seriously."

    Yan Wei chuckled: "Of course."

    He didn't walk up the stairs immediately.

    He looked at Hu Ayun.

    Hu Ayun was no longer clean and tidy in the daytime, and he rolled around in mud and blood, and was extremely embarrassed. She is no longer the young Qingzhi of 28 years old, staring straight ahead with her eyes wide open, and fell silently to the ground, no longer breathing.

    It's dead.

    Yan Wei sighed, took out a coin, and tossed it gently.

    The coin falls back to the palm again - heads up.

    "Then let me tell you," he said, "actually I lied to you just now. When I went down the well for the second time, I did enter Hu Ayu's retrospective fantasy. But her retrospective fantasy broke the game. The method is not to kill you, but to set the whole town on fire. She has lived a much clearer life than you, and she has always known that the root of the error is the whole town of Ankang, not just you. But I think, you It's not really worth the answer."

    Hu Ayun's body has begun to decompose rapidly.

    Yan Wei turned around and walked up the dark stairs.
