This scene seems to have subverted all Chen Guoyi's cognition. He stood blankly at the door of the master bedroom, looking stupidly at the house that he regarded as the only relative, and the only family member who was really good to him when he was a child. Their shared mother was killed in an almost brutal manner.
It was just a girl who looked very ordinary. She should be at the most ignorant age, but at this time, she was holding a murder weapon, covered in blood, like a demon returning from hell.
Finally, the girl stopped the movement in her hand, and she raised her head and looked towards the door.
At the same time that his eyes met, Chen Guoyi took a step back and fell to the ground. He didn't even get up, but kept his posture and muttered, "...Is this the truth?"
This was a huge blow to Chen Guoyi.
His long-standing cognition was instantly overturned. Since he was a child, he thought that the only one who was good to him and cared about his sister who loved him was the murderer who really killed his mother
Silent said nothing, he looked at the girl in the room.
The strange thing is that the girl didn't make any movements, her expression was in a state of extreme daze, although it seemed that her eyes were meeting, she didn't seem to be looking at them, and the whole person was in a state of emptiness.
After a while, the man who had run to the kitchen ran back, but this time he had a kitchen knife in his hand. In contrast, the knife in the girl's hand was like a toy.
The one thing in common is that he didn't notice them either.
The plot suddenly became realistic. It was more like a criminal investigation suspense film than a supernatural film. Xu Zhen felt better all of a sudden. He tried his best to forget what happened to the girl in the bathroom just now. Ordinary murder scene.
The girl who was blind-eyed reacted immediately after the man came back. She trembled for a while, and then she screamed loudly.
She screamed and stepped back with the knife, as if she was terrified.
"Bitch! Hand over what's in your hand!" With such a big kitchen knife in his hand, this gave the man a lot of confidence, and he suddenly regained his fierce tone before.
He looked at the corpse of the woman who was completely cold on the bed, only to feel that the hair was standing upright, and the whole bed was splattered with blood with an unruly knife. Now this woman is afraid that there is no more blood in her body to bleed.
The thought of this being done by a little girl just feels weird and disgusting.
After listening to the man's words, Xu Zhen turned his attention to the girl's left hand, which was not holding the knife. She was clearly holding something in her hand, because her palm was not as big as an adult's. No matter how tightly she held it, the contents inside would still be exposed. clues.
It's the emerald bead.
Xu Zhen immediately linked up what happened at the scene. Although there is no guarantee that it is 100% correct, I am afraid it is almost the same.
"This is revitalizing the sacrifice." Since neither of the two people could see them, Xu Zhen said his conjecture, "Every treasure requires certain steps to activate them, if the couple really knows If this is something, then there is nothing wrong."
With just the word "live sacrifice", Silent Yan already realized what Xu Zhen wanted to say.
"They plan to use their daughter as a living sacrifice?"
Silent Yan still remembered the situation that the girl described to him at that time. In the girl's statement, her parents did not want custody of her and her younger brother, and even argued several times about it.
If that's the case, then it's easy to explain.
They wanted to kill their daughter as a living sacrifice, but unexpectedly, the development of things deviated from their expectations, and the panicked daughter took the murder weapon to fight back.
The woman was killed, and the man who reacted faster escaped, but he was unwilling to give up the treasure, so he ran into the kitchen to find a kitchen knife.
Thinking of the final result of this incident and the appearance of the girl's body that he saw in the toilet at that time, Silent Yan guessed the next development somewhat.
It was a fluke that she took away the murder weapon and stabbed one person in a panic. The girl didn't really intend to kill, she was just so excited that she lost her mind, and when she came back to her senses, she met an adult with a murder weapon. How can people be opponents.
"So the evil spirit wants us to watch all the process?" Xu Zhen asked with a frown.
No one here likes blood, and he naturally doesn't like the process of watching the murder scene by the sidelines.
The room was that big, and as the man approached, the girl was quickly pushed to the corner of the bed. Even though she was covered in blood and armed with a murder weapon, she was like a victim at this time, and anyone could see it. out of her fear and helplessness.
This is a rather helpless situation.
Everyone knew that the scene in front of them had already happened long ago, whether it was the girl, the man, or the woman who was dying in bed, they were all dead.
The current one is just like a movie, a fictional scene.
But even so, in such an immersive situation, watching a girl helpless and being slaughtered, knowing her fate and standing by, is not something ordinary people can endure.
Especially empathetic people.
Xu Zhen couldn't stand it anymore. They couldn't go in the master bedroom from the beginning. The original arrangement was not useful. He looked around and found a long-handled umbrella leaning against the corner.
The man in the room was still saying cursing and threatening words. He was obviously afraid of the knife in the girl's hand, and tried to use words to intimidate her, let her know that she could not fight him, and let her take the initiative to put it down. knife, and tricked her into thinking about letting her die if she did.
"Why do you think me and this dead woman want to divorce? Isn't it because we have no money! This woman is very afraid of death, but she has bought a lot of insurance. After she dies, there will be a lot of money for our family to live a good life. ." He changed his words and began to try to build a better future that did not exist.
"Where are parents who would not want their own children! I have no choice but to have no money at home. Even if you follow me, I will not be able to give you a good life!" He said as he approached, "But it's different now. When we get the insurance money, we can live like other families! No, it will be better than them!"
This can only be said to children who don't understand anything, and listen to the children who are not deep in the world.
The girl who became the murderer of her own mother could not get the so-called happy life in his mouth no matter what, but at this time, hearing him say that, the girl was still shaken.
But when her eyes touched the kitchen knife in the man's hand, she was shocked, and immediately woke up and climbed out of bed to try to escape.
When the man saw that his words were useless, he instantly changed his face.
"As expected of a bitch! If you don't listen to good words, I have to do it!" With the girl running away with her back to him, he didn't have to worry that the knife in her hand could hurt him at this time, and he stretched out his hand mercilessly to pull it. The girl's hair, pulling her hair would smash her against the wall.
The girl was in pain from being pulled, and immediately made a sound of pain.
Although this body may not be of any use now, Xu Zhen still can't bear to see this cruel and inhuman scene continue.
Whether it's real or fake, if you want to go up, go up front! What a mess! Who do you want to disgust with this scene? !
The long-handled umbrella he found looked quite sturdy, and it was a little heavy for a child. Even if it didn't cause any fatal damage, it was still possible to interrupt the farce in front of him if it was used properly.
Silent Yan noticed Xu Zhen's actions, but he didn't say anything to stop him, just followed Xu Zhen in silently when he entered.
Neither the man nor the girl saw their appearance, so Xu Zhen's approach became very easy.
For the time being, he could be considered to have learned swordsmanship from a certain paladin surnamed Shen for a period of time. Even if he wasn't a sword in his hand, he was well aware of the fragility of the human body.
However, when Xu Zhen tried his best to turn this scumbag over with one blow, the umbrella in his hand passed directly through the man in front of him!
Even Xu Zhen himself lost his balance because of this, so he didn't fall to the ground because of inertia.
Just when Xu Zhen realized that they couldn't affect the "people" that appeared in this space, Chen Guoyi, who had fallen at the door, got up at some point, rushed forward, hugged the man's leg, and bit on it. .
"Fuck!" the man cursed in pain.
As soon as his hand was loosened, the girl immediately seized the opportunity to escape from his clutches, turned around, clenched the knife in her hand, and held it against the man.
As soon as the man saw the man who had finally caught his hand, he ran away again, raised his foot in resentment and kicked the child who was hugging his leg tightly and biting him on the back of the head, while kicking and cursing, "You are all fuckin'. Do you want to kill me?! You bastard! Neither of you want to go out alive today!"
After being kicked a few times, Chen Guoyi lost his strength. The body he possessed was too young. At this time, the other children were still hugging their parents and begging to buy toys.
"He can't see us but he can see Chen Guoyi?" Xu Zhen found the problem.
"It seems so."
Maybe it's because the girl invited them to the house in the first place, which led them to think they also existed in this fictional space.
"Maybe we don't want us to affect the development of the plot." Silent said, "According to what happened in this room decades ago, there should only be four of them involved, and we shouldn't exist."
"But wasn't that girl able to see us at first?" Xu Zhen didn't understand.
"So only imaginary 'people' can't see us."
The girl who invited them at that time was probably not a fictional existence in this space. If she guessed correctly, it was most likely the resentful spirit itself.
But it's also good news.
At least they understand that the fictional characters in this space cannot be touched, and what they can touch is the target they are looking for, but this does not mean that the evil spirit is a girl. After all, in this space, The evil spirit can change its image arbitrarily, it can be anyone.
Over there, Chen Guoyi was kicked away and let go. Before he could catch his breath, he was grabbed by the man's neck and lifted up.
"Hey! Don't you think of a way!" Xu Zhen was anxious, "Is he your task? If you die, will something happen to you?"
Silent Yan's task is to protect Chen Guoyi. If Chen Guoyi dies, then his task will be declared a failure. Even Silent Yan himself does not know what impact it will have if the task fails in the punishment level.
Just when Xu Zhen said these words, the man had already raised the knife in his hand. His kitchen knife looked so terrifying that even an adult looked at it, let alone a child.
If such a knife hits a child, its fate can be imagined.
But even if he was silent like this, he didn't do anything. To be precise, he couldn't do anything.
Xu Zhen's actions just now have proved that they can touch the objects in this room, but they can't touch the things on people and people, and even if they pick up the objects in this space, they can't attack the people in front of them.
It's like watching a movie, you can't make changes to a shot that's already taken.
At this time, Silent Yan should be nervous, the possibility of mission failure exists, and the follow-up results are still unknown. Even if there is no way, he should try to find a way at this moment, not like now.
He believes that Chen Guoyi will not die, at least not now, just like everything that happened before, this is just a performance arranged by the evil spirit to restore the incident. In this performance, Chen Guoyi is an important role, at least He will not die behind the girls.
What's happening now is just a part of the plot, and he doesn't think it's necessary to carry out redundant actions.
This is an idea that is somewhat out of the normal thinking mode. It does not mean that there is any special problem, but it is human instinct to be anxious about the unknown.
After referring to the current situation and coming to a conclusion, he calmed down, without anxiety or worry.
Even if he knew that his conjectures only accounted for a certain probability, and things often didn't develop as 100% as expected, he didn't care.
The most terrifying thing is that Silent Yan clearly knew that his thoughts were abnormal, but he couldn't control himself, and he couldn't make himself care about these things.
Xu Zhen didn't know how long it would take for Silent Yan's "wait again", he was a little anxious, and only at this time would he worry that he didn't learn the original master's ability well.
He looked at Silent Yan and frowned, thinking that the situation is not very optimistic now, so he said, "How about I see if there are any useful props."
His words made Silent Yan stunned.
"Props?"
"Yes, there will always be useful items in the mall." Although Xu Zhen doesn't like the system, the things produced by the system are still very useful. "Maybe it can solve the current situation."
After he finished speaking, he saw that the silence was silent.
However, reality is reality after all, and time will naturally not stop while they are talking. Xu Zhen feels that it is not good for this to continue. He has already dug out the system mall, but at this moment, things have turned around.
"Let go of my brother!" The girl who could have run away and shouted, instead of leaving, rushed up again and stabbed the man in the thigh.
Perhaps because of experience, she pulled it out immediately after going down with a knife, and then stabbed it hard again.
What does it feel like to be stabbed by someone
At least for ordinary people, this is a kind of pain that cannot be easily endured. It is much more painful than being bitten. Muscle tearing and blood flowing out of blood vessels brings the pain of instantly kneeling to the ground.
The family is completely sick.
The woman who died on the bed, the girl who had no fear of hurting people with a murder weapon, and the man who just wanted to kill everyone at this time.
His eyes were reddened by the pain, and the original taboo about the knife disappeared completely with the wound.
You've already been stabbed, so what are you afraid of
To others, the man was obviously crazy, and he ignored all the resistance of the girl, and let the blade cut through his palm, cut his skin, and just went through the sharp blade and caught the girl.
Even if you don't watch the next scene, you know what's going to happen.
They grabbed Chen Guoyi, who had regained his freedom, in a very tacit understanding, and prepared to evacuate the room first. There were measures they had arranged in advance outside the door, which might work.
But Chen Guoyi was unwilling, and he struggled violently with his reaction.
"let me go!"
Chen Guoyi was very excited at this time.
He felt pain and guilt for his suspicions about his sister not long ago.
The scene in front of him subverted his long-standing views. The scenes he had not participated in appeared in front of him scene by scene. He was confused by the scene in front of him, and even thought that the truth was that his sister killed their mother. .
Probably because he was old, Chen Guoyi didn't realize how wrong his previous guess was until the girl rushed up to save him regardless of the danger.
Even if she was a few years older than him in terms of birth year, she is still just a little girl now.
How can a child kill his mother for no reason
It was he who didn't understand anything, and just looked at the scene in front of him and speculated that he had lived so many years from before to now, and he still stayed at the bottom of the well, and could only see the narrow sky at the top of the well.
Chen Guoyi suddenly discovered that he may not have understood it all his life.
No matter how successful his business is and how successful his family is, he has been avoiding his own past. He has never investigated why his parents quarreled or tried to investigate what happened at that time. what.
Having been paying attention to Chen Guoyi's silent words, he was keenly aware that Chen Guoyi's expression had changed.
It was an expression of suddenly becoming obsessed with something and wanting to be desperate.
I have seen a lot of silent words with such an expression. There are many such people on the battlefield. They are all determined to die on the battlefield and desperately want to achieve their goals.
These people all have one characteristic, that is, they don't care about their own lives anymore.
"Let go of me! Do you want to watch her die?" Of course, Chen Guoyi's strength was no match for the strength of the two of them. After he found that he couldn't break free, he began to shout, "I can't let her die a second time!"
"Second time?" said Silently, "She's dead, everything here is fictional, you should know."
"Isn't she alive now? Can't you hear her cry!" At the same time as Chen Guoyi questioned, the girl let out an extremely painful scream, and Chen Guoyi struggled even more, "Let go! How can you be so cold-blooded? Watching her suffer?"
As soon as he said this, even Xu Zhen realized that something was wrong.
They told Chen Guoyi early, he should know clearly that everything that happened here is fake, take a step back and say, even if they don't say anything, can't Chen Guoyi be able to tell the truth from the fake
A person who has died pretends to have not died before appearing in front of him, can he pretend that he has never died
Does Chen Guoyi not even have this judgment
Xu Zhen thought this was too strange, but Silent Yan felt that Chen Guoyi's situation seemed a little similar to his. If Xu Zhen hadn't woken up, he would have almost forgotten about the mall.
Silent Yan is not a person who does not rely on the system at all. When encountering difficult problems, he will always be optimistic about whether there are any items in the mall that can play a role at a critical time, even if it is not until the last moment. Use, but be prepared for is what he has been doing all along.
But what is he doing now
He seemed to have lost his vigilance.
This time Silent said no more hesitation, he gave Xu Zhen a wink, and decisively dragged Chen Guoyi out of the master bedroom, no matter how fierce Chen Guoyi struggled, it did not give him any room to break free.
The punishment level was the first time for him, and he couldn't be sure whether the time to enter the outside of the mall would stop under the current circumstances, so what he did was to open the simplified version of the mall.
It is a kind of thing like projection technology, and the word version can't see the real thing.
He flipped through it quickly and managed to find something in it that would come in handy now.
At this time, the cry of the girl in the room gradually became weak, and gradually disappeared. Xu Zhen only glanced into the room and couldn't bear to look at it. He covered Chen Guoyi's eyes, for fear that he would be stimulated. became more insane.
In his opinion, Chen Guoyi is insane, and even thinks that a person who has already died a long time ago is real.
The kitchen knife that was originally used to cut food was dripping with blood, not only the kitchen knife, but also the man's cuffs and trouser legs, which was inexplicably similar to the appearance of the previous girl.
The nasty kid solved one, and another.
The man walked towards the door step by step with the kitchen knife in hand. His face was filled with a grim smile, and his mental state seemed to be insane.
"You can't escape either."
"Next is you."
They had retreated to the living room by this time, and between the living room and the door, they did a little trick.
In addition to the spiritual power of the spiritual masters themselves, the most important thing is to learn to draw all kinds of talismans. Even if there is no special paper, pen and ink, these talismans will still play a role.
Although for people in this world, a talisman is a text that communicates with ghosts and gods, but according to Xu Zhen, it is more like a circuit, which is used to facilitate the circulation of spiritual power and create specific effects. Paper, pen and ink are just for reinforcement and portability.
What they left at the door is a talisman that can imprison the spirit, but it is still unknown whether it can work.
In such a gloomy and bloody scene, Xu Zhen actually calmed down. He pulled Chen Guoyi back and glanced at Silent Yan on the side, as if he was asking him what to do next.
As soon as he turned his head, he saw that there was a talisman paper in Silent Yan's hand that he had never seen before. The talisman paper was black. The perceived power on this piece of paper means that it is not an ordinary black piece of paper.
In fact, this is a piece of paper that can see the "truth" clearly in a short time.
This is almost the entire description of this piece of paper. It is not even a kind of magic talisman, and it may not be regarded as something in this world system. In the mall level he has currently opened, this is the only thing he thinks can be something that works.
The talisman at the door needs a spell to activate. Xu Zhen realized that Silent Yan seemed to have bought something from the system, so he simply focused on the door.
The worst happened, when the man stepped through the door, the pre-prepared talisman didn't do anything, which meant that the man was not a spirit.
Obviously not a spirit, but it can cause harm to a living person like Chen Guoyi
What the hell is this weird space
Because of the girl's death, Chen Guoyi had completely lost his vitality. He let them drag him like a corpse, and he no longer resisted. He didn't even react when he saw the man approaching.
Xu Zhen only found it difficult.
Looking at Silent Yan again, he found that the black paper in his hand had disappeared for some time.
At the moment when the props came into play, all the scenery in front of Silent Yan changed.
Although the description of this item is "short time", Silent Yan didn't expect the time to be so short, but he still clearly remembered what he saw just now.
"follow me."
He pulled the two of them in one hand, with a clear goal.
Xu Zhen realized that his friend might be the key to finding the problem, and without any doubt, he dragged Chen Guoyi and ran after him. Fortunately, as long as Chen Guoyi dragged him, he would not resist wherever he went.
The man's leg was badly stabbed by the girl before. He was limping, holding a blood-stained knife in his hand, like some kind of monster, gradually approaching.
In fact, they ran a dead end.
Xu Zhen found that they ran back to the toilet where they hid before.
There was still blood in the bathtub, no different from when they left.
"Is there anything here?"
As soon as Xu Zhen finished speaking, he saw Silent Yan reached out and grabbed his collar.
Then, without warning, he was pressed into the blood pool.
