(A short and weak but unjustifiable and strong request for a monthly ticket)
The inability to see through the existence of cause and effect means that there is no definite certainty as to whether the establishment of the shelter will be successful.
Jing Liu came here, perhaps everything had been arranged, or perhaps it was a big gamble.
Thinking of this, Zero said:
"What kind of beings are you? Don't you have any weaknesses? Who is the strongest among you? What does he stand for?"
Zero asked several questions in a row, but Jingliu did not answer all of them:
"We ourselves don't know what kind of existence we are, but perhaps just like your name, we are infected person zero. Before the mutation came, when other creatures were still accumulating the possibility of mutation little by little, we had already completely mutated and possessed extremely powerful power even if we looked at it seven hundred years later."
"The strongest among us is my brother. He is far more powerful than the rest of us. Even I don't know how far he has come."
Zero noticed that Jingliu's wording was quite rigorous. The others were brothers, but the strongest one was the elder brother.
Obviously this brother's status is far higher than that of other brothers.
"He has no position, and we have no weaknesses. At most, there are things that I am not good at, just like I am not good at fighting. But that is only relative to you and my other brothers."
Jing Liu's calm face showed a slight change:
"But my brother did have three weaknesses. Back in Denglin City, in order to save the world, he offered himself to the scientists in Denglin City for research. The scientists did implant three weaknesses into his body when he was at his most powerful."
This was news that even Zero was moved. He had never fought with Jing Liu's brother, but he thought that he was not on the same level as Jing Wu.
This kind of existence may already be a concept of God, but even so, there are still human scientists who can implant three weaknesses in it...
"Is the weakness fatal?"
"Not lethal, but does provide some way to combat it."
"This is truly a great research achievement." Zero admired it sincerely, but also felt regretful.
Because of what happened later, even if Jing Liu didn't say it, he knew it.
If there really were such a great scientist, and if he had continued his research under the protection of the Jing brothers and sisters, perhaps the world would not be what it is now.
But now all that is left in this world are all kinds of twisted creatures and all kinds of strange and twisted rules.
The scientist is dead.
Since Jingliu's brother has an uncertain stance, it means that he once tried to save the world, but he also did things that destroyed the world, so his behavior cannot be simply defined as good or bad.
And due to some special reasons, although Jing Liu was once able to glimpse certain causes and effects, he can no longer see them now.
Zero can only be sure of one thing, that there exists an extremely powerful... non-partisan in this world.
He still had many questions to ask Jing Liu, but Jing Liu had already fulfilled his right to be informed. She was about to leave.
Before leaving, Zero finally asked:
"Is the most powerful being missing?"
"Yes. My brother is missing."
"Have you found it? Even if his position is hard to judge, I believe that he possesses the power of transcendence, which will surely attract many people to covet him. At least I am very interested in him."
Jing Liu did not answer this question, but gave Zero something.
"What's this?"
"A fragment of the Doomsday puzzle, the Causal Mirror. You don't have the power of causality, so you can only use this fragment once."
Doomsday puzzle pieces, Zero is no stranger to this thing.
"Why does this fragment exist?"
"As for the issue of the source, you can think of it as a device that restores the world. One part of this device is used to offset the distorted rules, while the other part has the same distorted power, using distortion to defeat distortion. It is a power that originates from the same source as the sequence that humans possess."
Jing Liu said:
"I have to go now."
"What is the function of the fragments?" Zero asked.
"It will give you a chance to absorb cause and effect, but you are not me. You do not have the power of cause and effect, so you cannot exert its full effect. But if you only want to cross a short period of time to save the person you want to save, it is not difficult."
Zero understood that as an evil being, he could not break through the restrictions of the area. Although several people in the Jing family were also evil, they obviously had the special characteristics of suppressing the rules.
Jing Liu turned and walked out of the Mechanical Temple.
Where Jing Si is hiding is a very valuable piece of information for all Jing-level beings, but it is also a question that has no answer.
But for Jing Liu, nothing in the world is a problem. The question and the answer are two pictures that appear in her eyes at the same time.
Zero suddenly felt that perhaps the strongest person mentioned by Jing Liu had been found by Jing Liu.
…
…
Baichuan City, Ghost Story Apartment, seventh floor.
It was already night.
The laughter echoing between heaven and earth seemed to reach Bai Wu's ears.
Not long ago, he was rummaging through a room on the seventh floor, like a scavenger at the end of the world seven hundred years ago.
Listening to the faint laughter in the distance, he didn't feel anything.
The function of laughter is to express negative emotions in a joyful way. If a person does not have joy, he will naturally not be affected.
Bai Wu, on the other hand, had no negative emotions. He smiled, not because he was infected by the laughter, but simply because he thought the laughter sounded... quite joyful.
As night fell, Bai Wu pressed the light, but found no response. The rules did not allow electricity in this apartment, which was a problem. However, if the evil people in the prison lived here, they would get used to it. After all, they could tolerate the prison environment.
Without lights, the current visibility is not high, making everything in the white fog stained with a layer of dark blue.
With his amazing eyesight, Bai Wu was still able to look up some information, especially since the "information" in his hand was not a paper document.
After leaving the fifth floor and fooling around with two weird stories, Bai Wu spent the next hour or so flipping through various documents.
Because on the seventh floor, he found a special room.
Up to now, he roughly knew what happened on the seventh floor, a lot of strange things, but these strange things were also rolled up internally. Bai Wu was still not sure which strange thing finally succeeded in raising the Gu and became a strange story.
The first strange thing is that there lived a middle-aged blind man on the seventh floor. He always led a puppet with him and went begging with the puppet every day during the day.
Of course, compared with those who just put down a bowl and beg for food, this middle-aged blind man still has some talent. To a certain extent, this is not called begging, but performing arts.
The puppet in his hand came alive under his control, which made the audience cheer.
The audience found that the puppet was really able to perform a lot of actions.
Some audience members would deliberately make things difficult for him, but the blind man listened to their descriptions, twitched the silk thread with his fingers, and soon he was able to perform the movements, even with the same facial expressions.
With his craft, he was able to earn a lot of food every day, because people gradually realized that money had lost its value.
In Baichuan City, people began to rely on circulating edible food as goods.
Of course, these things could not be recorded in the blind man's home. The blind man's home was bare. There were only some doll limbs, the kind that could be disassembled, and the notes were very strange -
They are indeed part of the doll.
The word "了" seemed to indicate what had happened. However, after looking around, Bai Wu still didn't find anything suspicious, so he went to the house opposite.
That is the second potential stock of ghost stories - the Peeping Tom.
Regarding the puppet controlled by the middle-aged blind man, this voyeur recorded everything in his vlog device.
There are more than 500 categories of vlogs, including categories for different times, different events, different families... and even different high places.
For example, men, women, single, married, kitchen, living room, bedroom, and even - toilet.
There are numerous surveillance videos in it. They are called vlogs, but in fact they are just the voice-overs of the voyeur himself and the editing of the voyeuristic scenes.
He practically spied on the residents of half the apartment building.
Regarding the middle-aged blind man, Bai Wu felt that it might be one of the strange stories because that is how the peeping Tom described it.
The video shows a middle-aged blind man climbing the stairs. The strange thing is that this blind man walks very steadily and slowly, and the distance between each step is very standard. However, he did not pick up the puppet, but continued to tremble his fingers... controlling the puppet to climb the stairs step by step.
Having the puppet climb the stairs with him seemed like an exercise in some kind of craft, but the voyeur obviously didn't think so.
"I have been observing the blind man across from me for a long time. He always manages to beg for a lot of food. It's really strange. Even though it's so chaotic outside, there are still people who will watch his performance. There are still people who are willing to exchange food for a puppet show. Isn't this ridiculous? I always feel that there is an evil secret here."
"Is this witchcraft? Or did he arrange a spy? But what's even more strange is that every time he comes back, he will continue to control the puppet instead of just picking it up... His life is very regular and he goes to bed on time, but every time I monitor his house... I always feel creepy."
There are a lot of videos. The reason why the white fog stayed here for a long time is because of the peeping desire of the peeping man, leaving behind a large number of files.
There is also a story about the ghost girl and her family of three living downstairs.
There is even Zhao Cuican’s on the second floor.
He now knew that he had found two of the six ghost stories. One of them kept asking people to look up on his cell phone, and the other was watching everything on TV.
The peeping Tom is very similar to the horror stories on TV. His name is Liu Yiyan.
Bai Wu certainly wouldn't judge a person by their appearance, let alone their name, but he had to admit that many times a person's name fits their character.
Liu Yiyan is considered a half-hacker with a strong desire for surveillance. It is not so much that he likes to pry into other people's privacy, but rather that he is just afraid of something that is out of his control.
But this also caused trouble.
Because the apartment itself has begun to become distorted, with many strange rules, some videos have disappeared.
Only Liu Yiyan's voice could be heard inside, and the screen was completely dark. Liu Yiyan's fear could be felt from these voices.
He obviously photographed something that science couldn't explain. These things didn't want to be photographed by him, so the screen went black.
Without relying on his eyes for clues, Bai Wu relied on Liu Yiyan's classification habits to quickly screen several videos with black screens, trying to determine the possibilities of several strange stories.
The sound inside is like this:
"On the first day after I moved into the apartment, I heard an old lady tell me not to go to the rooftop of the apartment because an old man would appear at 2 a.m. with a thermos cup and ask people if they wanted tea. He would go door to door asking, so don't answer, hold your breath and wait for him to leave."
"I was very curious, how could there be such a person? So I installed surveillance. Well, actually it has nothing to do with this, I just like surveillance, living is to keep spying on others, only in this way can I feel alive!"
This is the first video. Logically, Liu Yiyan should be recording his own room at this time, but the video screen has gone black.
This made Bai Wu suspicious... Liu Yiyan later became one of the strange stories. He continued to read on.
"Some houses have already started committing crimes. I saw that there is a secret hidden in the empty TV. How strange! Doesn't he mind the smell? Wait, this doesn't seem to be the point... What am I overlooking?"
"The little girl on the second floor suddenly woke up again. Is she sleepwalking? She kept knocking on the door, and her brother was sleeping like a dead pig. Hey, it's really interesting. Did he know that his sister would behave so horribly? Damn it, damn it! Is she a superman? How did she do this?"
"The elevator stopped at the thirteenth floor. No one pressed the button. I should be able to see something in the elevator, but there was no picture. I know there are things in this area that I can only see if they want me to see them. If they don't want me to see them, I can't see them... It's so frustrating!"
"Hey... this little girl is really bad... Tsk tsk tsk, I can't mess with her... The people in this building are really good at hiding corpses."
The device contains many video records of around midnight. Bai Wu paid attention to the time intervals and found that each one was almost every few minutes.
He felt a little strange for a moment, just imagine.
Around midnight, a man switched the images from time to time, and spoke very quickly about his own views related to the images.
“This should be a disease.”
Many videos cannot be viewed, but the base of voyeur videos is huge. Bai Wu noticed that Liu Yiyan even bought a server specifically to store his own surveillance.
It's hard to imagine that one person could monitor an entire apartment.
There are many crimes worth mentioning in these videos. In short, this apartment is full of talented people.
In order to survive in the apocalypse, all kinds of theft, robbery, murder and burial are rampant.
But in Bai Wu's eyes, there are only a few that can be considered strange stories so far, and these are the only videos that are black without any pictures, and only have Liu Yimian's voice.
Someone hid the body in the TV. Only the old-fashioned large color TVs have space to hide the body.
And this incident may have led to the triggering of the strange story of "I'm watching you".
The second is the little girl on the second floor, who may be sleepwalking, and in her sleepwalking, she made actions that Liu Yijian could not understand. But Bai Wu was very strange. The person on the second floor... wasn't Zhao Cuican the one with a younger sister
Then there is a middle-aged blind man, both he and his puppet are suspicious.
Finally, as the old lady said, at twelve o'clock midnight, an old man holding a thermos cup will appear.
However, this old lady, who was most likely making up stories, was judged by Bai Wu to be one of the strange stories.
Because in this room, Bai Wu saw a thermos cup. The note also confirmed one of his thoughts.
People always challenge those horrible things to prove their disbelief, but this behavior itself is very confusing, isn't it? There are some things that we do know do not exist, but again, respect the rules, my old friend.
Clues slowly emerged, and it was obvious that Liu Yiyan had chosen some suicidal behavior by responding to the old man who was holding a thermos cup and asking people if they wanted tea.
But why was the thermos left in Liu Yiyan’s room
The night grew darker, and the laughter in the distance became more exaggerated, as if more and more people were infected. Bai Wu frowned and opened the window.
At this time, in the next room, the room where the puppet was hidden... a laugh was heard.
This laughter was no different from the laughter outside. Bai Wu also laughed, not because he was infected, but because he suddenly realized that this laughter seemed to have infected some strange story... and assisted him.
So the white fog quickly came to the house opposite. The house of the middle-aged blind man was very simple, and the bed was just a straw mat.
There are many doll limbs placed here. Bai Wu was a little confused before, wondering why the eyes did not give any clues.
Now he understood why he hadn't seen the doll.
"It's not difficult for a blind man to accurately perform the actions described by the spectator, but why can he make the spectator's expression? Either he is not blind... or, well... he is the puppet, and the puppet in his hand is the real controller."
In the darkness, the limbs seemed to be connected by threads, and they began to piece together continuously until they became a complete puppet.
Congratulations on finding the third weird thing. Believe me, its ability is very useful to you. Even if your limbs are broken, they can be sewn together. But you know, there is a prerequisite for all this. Let it depend on you to deal with the other five weird things.
Bai Wu was ecstatic. Isn't this the ability to transfer the weakness of Mummy Yin on the flight? What a good thing!
The puppet in the darkness let out a creepy laugh. This scene frightened Liu Yiyan so much that he was stunned for a moment, but in Bai Wu's ears, he only felt the sound of nature.
