"Is that Calabash Doll yours?"
Although she was reluctant to admit it, Lin Xi was carried out by Calabash Brothers in front of everyone. It was impossible for her to deny it under the watchful eyes of everyone.
Lin Yan held on to her last hope: "If I say it's not true, will you believe me?"
“Hahahaha” Aquaman couldn’t hold back any longer, and laughed crazily as if someone had hit his funny bone, while imitating the lines of Big Baby, “Grandpa, I’m here to save you, hahahaha Grandpa, we’re going home, hahahaha, didn’t he point at the spirit and yell when he went in, “Goblin, let my grandpa go?”
It has to be said that Calabash Brothers' classic lines have penetrated into the blood of every Chinese. Even if one has not witnessed the scene of Calabash Brothers saving Lin Yan with one's own eyes, Aquaman can still accurately restore it 100%.
Lin Yan's face turned red with embarrassment, and then she thought of something and asked a soul-searching question: "Hey, you really came in?"
The Sea King's laughter stopped abruptly, and his smiling face suddenly turned ferocious: "How dare you bring it up! It's all your fault."
Lin Xi was unhappy: "How did I harm you? It wasn't me who asked you to go to Mudai River."
"You..." Hai Wang wanted to say that it was because of your bad luck, but after thinking about it, it seemed that Lin Yan's bad luck had nothing to do with him in Mudai River, "Forget it."
"Let's go to another place first and stop blocking the door." Chen Chu suggested. The appearance of Calabash Brothers was so high-profile that the three of them had become the focus of everyone, and countless eyes were focused on Lin Xi.
Lin Yan quickly stood up from the ground and peeled off the sticker on the door frame. When she peeled off the sticker, Hai Wang and Chen Chu were both stunned. Both of them were high-level psychics with excellent eyesight. They saw the pattern on the sticker at a glance and had guesses in their minds. But neither of them spoke until the three of them walked to a corner with few people, and then Chen Chu asked.
"Did you encounter the curse master in the building when you went in just now?"
Lin Yan nodded: "Yes, there is an eighth-level curse master on the first floor."
A hint of surprise flashed across Chen Chu's eyes: "How do you know that the other party is an eighth-level curse master?"
Aquaman was also stunned: "Yes, why is it level eight instead of level A or level S?"
In today's supernatural world, supernatural power levels are divided by English letters. For example, the King of Pollution is an A-level curser.
Lin Yan: “Because…”
Lin Xi hesitated whether to tell others that she could understand the language of spirits.
Chen Chu: "Forget it, no need to explain."
Neptune glanced at Chen Chu. He obviously wanted to know, but after hearing what Chen Chu said, he did not ask any more questions.
Lin Xi thought for a moment, and suddenly figured it out, and said directly: "It's nothing, I have a prop that can communicate with spirits."
Chen Chu suddenly looked at Lin Yan, his pupils trembling violently showing his inner restlessness. The expression of the Sea King was much more exaggerated, his mouth suddenly opened so wide that a whole egg could almost fit in it.
As if she was afraid that the two of them were not shocked enough, Lin Yan continued, "Yes, I can communicate with spirits. The curse master inside is called Gu Linfang, an eighth-level curse master. She told me all this on her own initiative."
“Mom, let me take it easy.” The Sea King supported Chen Chu’s shoulders as if he was a little unsteady. “I actually know the name of the ancient spirit in the subspace.”
Everyone knows that the spirits in the subspace are intelligent, otherwise the survival rate of people with special abilities in the subspace would not be so low. Subspace researchers are also trying their best to crack the language of the subspace, but no one has succeeded so far. Only S-level curse masters can feel the other party's thoughts through mental resonance when their mental power reaches the peak, but it can't last too long. And there has only been one S-level curse master in decades.
Chen Chu frowned: "You shouldn't say that."
Lin Yan said indifferently: "It's not a secret anyway. Last time in Blizzard City, I used it several times in front of Yun Zhou."
If she had to pick a trustworthy person in the supernatural world, that person could only be Chen Chu. And with her luck, entering and exiting the subspace would definitely be a common occurrence in the future. Not to mention that Yun Zhou already knew that her ruler could communicate with spirits, even if Yun Zhou didn't know, if she wanted to use it in the future, she would definitely be discovered. Therefore, it would be better to confess a skill that was bound to be discovered.
"Blizzard City?" Aquaman seemed to understand something. "Last time in Blizzard City, Chen Chu said that you fought your way out of the house by yourself, so you relied on..."
Lin Yan nodded: "Yes, I relied on my communication skills and got through it through friendly negotiation."
Aquaman was dumbfounded: "Is this possible? Wait, if you communicate with the spirit, it won't hurt you. Are you so easy to talk to?"
Lin Xi immediately had a bitter face. She had originally thought so, but today's curse master broke her fantasy: "Not really. When I just walked in, the eighth-level curse master wanted to curse me."
Chen Chu looked at Lin Yan nervously: "Are you cursed?"
Lin Yan: "Probably not."
Aquaman was puzzled: "What do you mean there shouldn't be?"
If it is, it is. If it is not, it is not. Or you can say that you don’t know, but it should not be. What is the operation
Lin Yan: "That curser cursed me to be disfigured, but I don't think I'm disfigured."
When she came out, Lin Yan secretly touched her face with her hands. There were no wounds or pain on her face, so the curse was probably unsuccessful. She was not sure because she did see a lot of cursed black air, and Lin Yan was not sure whether the black air touched her. Maybe Da Wa ran too fast just now, so she was not contaminated by the black air, so the curse might not have taken effect yet.
Aquaman opened his mouth again: "What else do you know about the curse the other party has given you?"
Under normal circumstances, the cursed supernatural beings in the Soul Locking Tower usually only know what curse they have been cursed with after the curse takes effect. There are also some curses that cannot take effect immediately, so they must be judged by a curse master before they can be discovered.
However, since Lin Xi was able to communicate with the other party, it didn't seem surprising that she knew the content of the curse.
Chen Chu took out the Cursed Eye from the space props: "Let me help you take a look."
Chen Chu held the Eye of Curse in his palm and injected a faint wind power into it. Soon the runes on the Eye of Curse were filled with green power, and a green-gray energy was fed back, spreading along the meridians to Chen Chu's eyes. Then Chen Chu's eyes were covered by a layer of green-gray light curtain, and he looked up at Lin Xi.
After a moment, the light faded, Chen Chu retracted his supernatural power, and said in a relaxed tone: "Congratulations, there is no curse on you."
Lin Xi also breathed a sigh of relief. Although she had a rough sense of it, it was still more reassuring to know that she was not cursed.
The Sea King sighed and said, "Eighty percent of people who enter the Soul Locking Tower will be cursed. You were so lucky to come out safely. Could it be that everything will turn into the opposite when it reaches its extreme?"
Lin Yan rolled her eyes at him and said disdainfully, "Can you go find some clothes to wear? I'm afraid that when you go in, that female spirit will take you as her lover."
Aquaman suddenly felt a chill all over his body. It was no wonder that with his looks and figure, he might be favored by someone.
"I'll be back soon." Hai Wang walked outside, and under Lin Yan's stunned gaze, he grabbed a psychic in a suit and beat him up, then forced the man to take off his pants and shirt and give them to him, leaving him with only his shorts and suit jacket.
Lin Yan, who grew up in a society ruled by law, could not accept the robbery of the Sea King: "Is this okay?"
Chen Chu said seriously: "In the subspace, in order to keep yourself alive, it is reasonable to do anything. Of course, you have to bear the consequences of your own actions."
Lin Yan was silent, and once again felt the cruelty of the supernatural world. In fact, she had already adapted to the dangers of the supernatural world, but in Lin Yan's subconscious, even in the face of danger, she could not hurt others. This was her bottom line, but perhaps not for others.
Aquaman rolled up his sleeves and walked back. Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, he couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"
Chen Chu glanced at Lin Yan and asked casually, "Is there something wrong with the person you beat up?"
The Sea King said casually: "He has such a strong murderous aura, he is obviously not a good person."
Lin Yan looked up in astonishment, and then her expression relaxed. It turned out that the Sea King was not bullying anyone randomly, but was selective.
Yes, even though she knew the cruelty of the supernatural world, Lin Yan still couldn't bully others at will. Lin Yan didn't know if she was being hypocritical, but she didn't want to change, at least not now.
Chen Chu saw that Lin Yan's expression had returned to normal, with a barely perceptible smile forming on the corner of her mouth. He handed the Cursed Eye to her: "Take it."
Before Lin Yan could say anything, the Sea King started yelling, "Hey, hey, hey, she's already cheating, and you're still giving her the Cursed Eye. Shouldn't I be the one who needs it most here?"
Although Aquaman said this, he did not reach out to grab it.
Lin Xi also said: "This is the dirty king's stuff, it's not a good idea for us to use it."
Chen Chu said nonchalantly: "Just go back and return the points to him."
This thing was originally taken by Chen Chu. Without him, King Wu would not be able to take a picture of the Cursed Eye, so if Chen Chu wants to use it, King Wu will have no objection.
Lin Xi thought for a moment and shook her head, "Then use it. Take it with you, and maybe you can find a tool to lift the curse."
Chen Chu pursed his lips and said nothing. However, the Sea King keenly grasped the key words: "What curse? Are you cursed?"
The person Neptune was asking was Chen Chu. It was the first time for him and Lin Yan to enter the Soul Locking Tower's subspace. Among the three people, he had never been to the Soul Locking Tower, so he was not cursed. Although Lin Yan had entered, she had just used the Cursed Eye to check and found that she was not cursed. Therefore, the only one who might be cursed in the scene was Chen Chu.
Chen Chu denied: "I'm not cursed."
The Sea King believed it immediately: "I told you, you don't look like you're cursed. And if you were cursed, the Dirty King would definitely be able to tell."
Only Lin Yan looked at Chen Chu suspiciously, with doubt in her eyes. She felt that Chen Chu was lying, but she had no evidence, just a feeling, judging from his attitude towards Tang Lanyue.
Lin Yan looked at the Cursed Eye in Chen Chu's hand, and suddenly an idea flashed in her mind. She took the Cursed Eye and handed it to the Sea King. In the Sea King's astonished eyes, she said: "The Cursed Eye can see curses, right? Take a look."
Lin Xi cannot use her supernatural powers, so she cannot activate the function of the Cursed Eye. So even if the Cursed Eye is given to her, she doesn't know how to use it.
Chen Chu glanced at Lin Yan, who pretended not to see it.
The Sea King was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted and immediately injected his supernatural power, urging the cursed eye to look at Chen Chu. Chen Chu did not hide, but stood there and let the Sea King look at him calmly.
After a few seconds, the Sea King breathed a sigh of relief and returned the Cursed Eye to Lin Yan: "It is indeed not cursed. Chu, it's not that I don't believe you, it was she who asked me to see it."
Lin Xi didn't expect that Neptune would stab her back. Facing Chen Chu's half-smile, she was so embarrassed that she wished she could disappear on the spot.
Chen Chu: "Have I proven my innocence?"
Lin Yan blushed: "I... I don't believe you, I..."
After stabbing Lin Yan, Hai Wang said to Chen Chu: "Chen Chu, I have something to say about you. Lin Yan is also worried about you. You are a grown man, why are you so petty?"
Chen Chu looked at the Sea King, sneered, and suddenly raised his hand. A gust of wind energy surged out, blocking the air from the Sea King's mouth and nose. In just a moment, the Sea King's eyes were bloodshot, and he grabbed Chen Chu's arm and begged for mercy.
Chen Chu saw that he had almost taught the lesson, so he waved his hand again and took back his supernatural power.
Hai Wang panted heavily, pointed at Chen Chu and complained: "How come you can't take a joke?"
Chen Chu: "Because I am narrow-minded."
Aquaman: “…”
Hai Wang felt that this topic could not be continued, so he quickly changed the subject and turned to Lin Yan and asked, "How did you enter the Soul Locking Tower just now?"
Chen Chu was also very surprised and asked, "Yes, you just came in, how did you enter the Soul Locking Tower?"
Because Lin Xi was afraid of entering the Soul-Locking Tower, she bought a plane ticket and rushed back to Jin City overnight. How could she break into the Soul-Locking Tower as soon as she entered the secondary space? This is extremely unreasonable.
Chen Chu: "Did someone force you to go in?"
"…" Lin Yan wanted to dig a hole in the ground again. How could she explain this? Could it be that it was not people who forced her to do this, but shit that forced her to do this? She might as well just die.
"Accident, accident. I just came in and didn't know that was the Soul Locking Tower. I walked in without paying attention." Yes, that's it.
You are kidding! If someone enters without paying attention, could you arrange the Calabash Brothers at the door in advance
Hai Wang and Chen Chu both heard the falsehood in Lin Ping's words, but seeing that she looked like she wished she could disappear right there, no one spoke up to expose her.
The Sea King looked at Chen Chu and asked, "How about it? How many levels do you plan to go through?"
Chen Chu pondered for a moment and asked, "Do you want to take anything out?"
There are three exits in the Soul Locking Tower, one on the third floor, one on the sixth floor, and one on the seventh floor. Curses below the third floor can be avoided by high-level psychics, so as long as you successfully break into the third floor and get an energy stone on any of the first to third floors, you can open the door and leave. Curses above the third floor are more dangerous. Even psychics above level A may be cursed by the curse master, but they can get props from it. Some psychics with stronger abilities can not only get props to remove curses above the third floor, but can even bring out more powerful props with other functions. There was once a curse master who brought out the Eye of Curse and a piece of wood energy crystal on the fifth floor. There is even a legend that someone brought out barrier-type psychic props.
As for the seventh floor, there are relatively few records in the internal forum, so Lin Xi is not sure.
Simply put, in the Soul Locking Tower, the higher the floor, the greater the danger, but also the more opportunities.
The Sea King glanced at Lin Yan and said, "Let's go to the third floor."
Lin Yan: “…”
Don't think that I don't know what you mean just because you didn't say anything.
Chen Chu looked at Lin Yan: "What about you?"
Lin Yan: "The third floor, right?"
Although she didn't want to admit it, but... she was also afraid of her luck.
Chen Chu nodded: "Then I will go in and get the energy stones first. I will bring all your energy stones out. Then I will be the first to go out, Lin Yan will be the second to go out, Xingyu, you will be the last to go out."
Aquaman was puzzled: "Why?"
Chen Chu: "We were swallowed on the plane."
Hai Wang said, "Oh," and understood. The two of them were swallowed by the space gate, but the plane would not wait for them there, so when they got out, they would most likely appear in the air again. Lin Yan couldn't fly, and if she got out first, she would definitely fall to death, so Chen Chu had to go out first and wait for Lin Yan near the exit. As for him being the last one to leave, it should be because Chen Chu was afraid that Lin Yan was too weak and the energy stone would be snatched away by others, so he asked him to protect her.
The matter was settled. Chen Chu nodded to the two of them, turned around and walked into the Soul Locking Tower. After only five minutes, Chen Chu came out again, holding three huge energy stones in his hands, as if he was going back to his home to get something. Seeing this scene, the psychics who were still trying to explore the periphery were full of envy, and they wanted to rush over to ask Chen Chu to bring out their energy stones as well.
Chen Chu divided the energy stones between the two people: "I will wait for you at the exit of the third floor."
Aquaman nodded. With his strength, it would not be a problem to reach the third floor.
Chen Chu looked at Lin Yan again: "After entering, don't pay attention to the spirits in the building. Run as fast as you can with the Cursed Eye. The Cursed Eye can see the power of the curse. As long as you avoid it, you won't be cursed. Under normal circumstances, the Curse Master will not chase you."
The power of the curse is invisible. Unless you wear the cursed eyes, others cannot see it.
When Lin Xi heard this, she suddenly became uncertain. She heard the auctioneer say that the Cursed Eye could avoid the curse, and she thought it could directly block the curse. But it turned out that she could only see the power of the curse, and in the end she still had to rely on herself to hide.
For those with supernormal five senses, as long as they can see the power of the curse, they can basically avoid it, but Lin Yan's five senses are still those of an ordinary person, and she is not sure if she can avoid it. In other words, with her luck value of -99, it is highly likely that she cannot avoid it.
Lin Yan thought for a moment and suddenly came up with a great idea: "Senior Chen Chu, I have a safer way."
Chen Chu: "What method?"
Lin Yan took something out of her pocket and handed it to Chen Chu. Chen Chu took it and found that it was the sticker that Lin Yan had put on the door of the building.
Lin Yan said a little embarrassedly: "You have seen the function of this prop of mine. It is... when I encounter danger, Calabash Brothers will carry me... and save me home. So you carry it with you. When I encounter danger, Calabash Brothers will..."
“Pfft... Hahahaha..." When Lin Yan said the three words "Calabash Brothers", Neptune's mind automatically and uncontrollably played the BGM when Calabash Brothers appeared. When he thought of the scene just now, he couldn't help but burst out laughing again.
A smile also appeared in Chen Chu's eyes, and it was obvious that he was having a hard time holding it in.
Lin Yan was embarrassed and angry, but she had no choice: "Forget it, I'll just run away by myself."
As she spoke, Lin Yan was about to take the sticker back, but Chen Chu closed his palm and accepted the sticker: "Very good, you... come back in five minutes."
After saying that, Chen Chu turned around quickly and entered the Soul Locking Tower very quickly.
Aquaman was already laughing so hard that he bent over, especially when he thought about the scene that might happen in a while: "No, let me go in second. I really want to see the scene where the Calabash Brothers emerge from Chen Chu's body, hahahaha"
Although Aquaman said this, he did not really go in second. If something happened to Lin Xi outside just to watch the fun, he would never forgive himself.
Five minutes later, Lin Xi stepped into the Soul Locking Tower again.
The female spirit Gulinfang was still standing there. When Lin Xi saw her, she subconsciously became alert, but Gulinfang did not attack her. Instead, she spoke a bunch of words to her, which were incomprehensible.
Lin Xi did not sense anger from the other party's tone, but instead heard confusion. After hesitating for a moment, she took out the ruler and activated her skill.
Lin: "What did you say?"
Gu Linfang: "What ability did you use just now to block my curse?"
[Wrong answer will result in a ten-point punishment.]
shield
Lin Yan: "Isn't it because I run fast?"
Gu Linfang: "My curse was close to you at that time, and you couldn't dodge it at all. It was a force of rules that blocked my curse on you."
The power of rules, even Lin Xi herself was surprised
Lin Yan thought about it. If there is such a thing as the power of rules, it can only be Calabash Brothers. Are Calabash Brothers so awesome? What are the rules? Lin Yan had watched the Calabash Brothers cartoon. When she thought about it, she suddenly had a bold guess.
It seems that in cartoons, the old man who was captured by the snake demon would always be rescued by the Calabash Brothers unharmed in the end. When I was a child, I didn't understand it and didn't think there was anything wrong. When I grew up, I understood it and couldn't help complaining about why the old man was captured so many times but still not hurt.
Is this the rule?!
Lin Xi looked suddenly at the old man sticker on her chest, and was frightened by her own guess: If this were true, the old man would be really awesome.
Lin Yan thought for a moment and looked at Gu Linfang: "If I tell you, can you also answer a question for me?"
Gu Linfang thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay."
Lin Yan: "You guessed right. The reason why I can block your curse is because the skill I just used has the ability to exempt from damage."
Gu Linfang: "I see. What questions do you have for me?"
Lin Xi thought for a moment and asked, "Before I came in, a man came in. I want to know if he has any curse on him."
Lin Xi still didn't believe that Chen Chu was not cursed. At the resort, his attitude towards Tang Lanyue and Li Jiamu was too abnormal, and the divination system did predict that Chen Chu had been hurt by them.
The system's divination has a 100% accuracy rate.
Gu Linfang: “Yes.”
Lin Yan suddenly looked up: "What curse?"
Gu Linfang: "The curse on him is a twelfth-level curse. I can't detect it."
Lin Yan: "You can't spy on him, so how can you be sure that he has a curse?"
Gu Linfang: "I cursed him, but it didn't work."
Lin Yan: "You didn't succeed, maybe because he is very powerful, it doesn't mean he is cursed."
Gu Linfang shook her head: "No, he didn't dodge. My curse was successful, but he was swallowed by a more powerful curse. I can't be wrong about this."
Didn't dodge? Why not dodge, unless Senior Chen Chu knew that he had a curse on him and could offset other curses.
Lin Xi thought about this possibility and walked slowly towards the second floor.
The spirit standing on the second floor saw Lin Xi and without any words, energy surged through his body and he began to form seals with his hands.
Lin Yan looked at him and wanted to confirm it again. She raised the ruler in her hand and pointed at him: "What is the letter after ABC?"
The spirit ignored Lin Yan and continued to chant the spell: "I curse you, I curse you to be plagued by all kinds of diseases..."
At this moment, at the exit of the third floor, a familiar and brainwashing song suddenly rang in Chen Chu's ears.
"Calabash Brothers, Calabash Brothers, seven flowers on one vine, wind and rain, not afraid, la la la la la"
Along with the singing, there was also a flash of orange light, followed by Erwa’s voice: “Grandpa, I’m here to save you.”
The 2D version of Erwa has disappeared at the stairs.
"puff"
There were no outsiders around at the moment, so Chen Chu didn't have to be patient. He just laughed so hard that he bent over.
On this side, Erwa ran all the way from the third floor to the second floor. When he saw the spirit on the second floor, he puffed out his chest, pointed at the spirit with great momentum, and shouted, "Ghost, let my grandpa go."
Then, quite unnecessarily, he placed his right hand on his eyes, and a golden light shot out from his eyes towards the spirit. Just when Lin Yan thought something was going to happen, Erwa suddenly turned around, picked her up and ran away.
“…” Lin Xi.
So, did you just show off your clairvoyance? But you were less than two meters away from him, did you use your clairvoyance
Erwa didn't care about his grandfather's complaints. He carried his grandfather on his back and ran to the third floor. Soon he ran to Chen Chu's side.
"Grandpa, let's go home." Erwa threw Lin Yan into the house and disappeared on the spot.
And at this time, Chen Chu's family.
Chen Chu subconsciously caught Lin Yan who was thrown into his arms by Erwa, and they were both stunned.
