Roughly speaking, the church is not very large, with three floors in total, connected by a spiral staircase. In addition to the main building, there is a rose field in the front yard and a cemetery in the back. some places.
I don't know where the others are yet. If the box's specified activity area is only so large, it should be able to meet soon. Cui Zuojing left a mark as he walked. Each of them had their own unique way of marking, so that when they separated, other companions knew about each other's general situation and it was convenient to meet.
Walking along the side corridor with stained glass windows for a distance, there are many small rooms next to it. Before entering, everyone has guessed what it will involve based on the hints of the box name and pattern, and everyone has done it. Lots of religious knowledge preparations just in case.
Cui Zuojing pushed open the doors one by one, and found that most of them were locked. He left a mark at the corner and continued to walk forward, seeing the scattered blood on the floor.
Cui Zuojing was refreshed. He approached the place where the bloodstains appeared, and found obvious signs of battle around him. The statue of the Virgin was lying in the corner, and there were potholes cut out by sharp tools on the colonnade. He stepped forward quickly, and the blood stains became more obvious. Even the three-meter-high stained window had splatters of blood. It happened to be on the cheek of the man holding the Bible, which instantly made the holy pattern weird.
After the battle, the injured party should have fled, the blood spots smashed by the footprints were intermittent, and finally extended to the door of a door and disappeared nearby.
Cui Zuojing tried to push the door, but it was still locked. According to the normal script of the box, he should find the key somewhere or go through the window from the outside. With Cui Zuojing's ability, he can directly destroy the door lock, but considering that if he encounters danger and needs to hide, it will be embarrassing if the lock is broken, so he should honestly find the key.
It didn't take much effort to find the key behind a portrait, Cui Zuojing pushed open the door and went in. What caught his eye was a large area of bloodstains. Obviously, the injured person stayed here for a long time.
But he found no trace of anyone, as if the wounded locked himself in the room and disappeared. This is a lounge, the facilities are relatively simple, the single bed is placed against the wall, there is a small window between the bed and the table, you can see the roses and pink sky outside, on the table there is a small window. This bible has a bloody handprint on the black cover.
Cui Zuojing pressed his hand on the blood mark, and came out a circle. The injured person should be a strong adult man. He opened the Bible and saw English.
- In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
—The earth is void and void, and the face of the deep is dark; the Spirit of God moves upon the waters.
A burst of light emanated from the pages of the book, extremely dazzling, Cui Zuojing subconsciously raised his hand to protect his eyes, and when the light faded, his eyes were clear again, and the surroundings had changed.
Birds and insects chirped in all directions, far or near, the dense woods covered the sun that was setting in the sky, and sprinkled mottled light spots on the ground. Freshness after. Cui Zuojing bowed his head. He was wearing a jacket and carrying a hiking bag, and his shoes were full of mud. Obviously, he had climbed all the way up from the foot of the mountain.
Behind him, there were faint shouts with a strong dialect accent, the forest ranger and his dog were chasing after him, and the other fellow was a little nervous and panting: "This, how long have you been chasing this, you have too much perseverance. Well, otherwise, let's go separately, and if we are caught up, we might be fined."
Everyone agreed, and their group, including Cui Zuojing, totaled seven, and they fled in three waves in different directions.
Cui Zuojing was unable to control this body and observed what was happening with his first vision. He quickly realized that he was now a backpacker. The rangers found that the rangers were chasing them from the morning to the present because they were afraid that they would smoke and sleep in the open to trigger wildfires, or that they were afraid of poaching.
The more he chased after the crowd, the more scared he became. The thin German Shepherd kept biting close to them a hundred meters behind their buttocks, so that the master would not lose his target. Cui Zuojing and the other two walked to the left. This mountain forest has only the path that the rangers patrolled in the mountains on weekdays, and it is difficult to walk. They are already exhausted.
The targets were divided into three, and the forest ranger hesitated and decided to chase "Cui Zuojing", because the direction they were walking was leading to a cliff, the terrain was very complicated, and a little carelessness might lead to danger.
The forty-year-old forest ranger kept shouting in dialect behind him. They didn't understand what he was talking about.
"Otherwise, we don't leave. It's not easy for others. If you are fined, you will be fined." Twenty minutes later, "Cui Zuojing" stopped. He was exhausted, and the Sony camera hanging on his chest was almost His neck would be exhausted, and the road after the rain was very muddy and slippery, which increased the consumption of physical strength.
He glanced back. The ranger was pulling away the drooping branches of the trail and coming toward them with difficulty, only to make a turn to catch them.
"No, it's been running for so long, hold on a little longer, and he won't be chasing anymore at night, and then it will be safe." The companion pulled him and wanted to continue running.
At this moment, the ranger who was going around the bushes was probably out of strength, and suddenly his foot slipped, and he fell down the smooth mountain wall for a distance!
He stretched out his hand and grabbed the branch next to him, and his body was almost stopped.
"Wang Wang Wang!"
The ranger dog went down to the owner's vicinity regardless of the danger, carefully stepped on the muddy wetlands, and barked for help.
"not good!"
Cui Zuojing and his companions immediately turned back. They threw away their backpacks and cameras, and stretched out their hands on the edge of the rock to pull the ranger up. Cui Zuojing clearly saw the rough and cracked hands of the forest ranger, as well as the traces of the weather on his simple face. He was only forty years old, but he looked like a man in his fifties.
The shotgun used to intimidate the poachers was on his back, and the forest ranger tried hard to grab Cui Zuojing's hand and climb up, but the rocks after the rain were so slippery, and with his strength, the branches were pulled Broken suddenly.
He fell, fell off a cliff of 100 meters.
boom!
The sound of a fresh body hitting his ears, Cui Zuojing woke up suddenly, he came back to his senses, the Bible in front of him was lying quietly on the table, the blood in the room was smelling fishy, what he saw just now, probably It is in this box that he wants to wash away the sins.
He ignored the rules, killed a dutiful forest ranger, and got into debt.
He fled like a coward and escaped the punishment of the law, but he could not bear the shame in his heart and came to the church.
Cui Zuojing withdrew his hand, his mood was a bit complicated, but he quickly adjusted it. The immersive scene display is indeed easy to create a strong sense of substitution, but after all, those are just the fate of the box on him.
Now that the name of the sin is known, the next step is to find the Son of God for repentance, but I don't know whether the so-called Son of God is one of them or played by NPCs.
There were no other clues in the room. Cui Zuojing was sure that no other trace of the missing and injured person could be found for the time being, so he left here without wasting time. If possible, he still wants to reunite with other teammates as soon as possible, which is also safer.
Cui Zuojing continued to explore the church, leaving his own mark while looking for the Holy Son. He knew that since the box made him understand the sin he was carrying so easily and quickly, the difficulty would definitely be concentrated in the later stages.
Dong Zheng pushed open an unlocked door.
He woke up in a coffin next to the cemetery behind the church. In the black coffin, besides him, there was a newspaper from a plane crash.
After listening to the prompts given by the box, Dong Zheng made a rough subjective judgment on the approximate difficulty of the box. According to his experience, the more specific the prompts about the task, the less they need to gradually explore to know what to do, which means that It will be more difficult to actually implement.
There are devout believers buried in the cemetery next to them, and small crosses are carved on each tombstone. Dong Zheng searched and found no other clues, so he walked into the church through the back door.
The corridor connected by the back door extends to the left and right sides. The general church has a perfectly symmetrical structure. Based on the principle of male left and female right, Dong Zheng chose the left side. structure of the entire church.
This church is very luxurious. Dong Zheng has visited several famous churches in Europe, and his initial impressions are similar. Crosses can be seen everywhere, many pillars are carved with religious statues, and the architectural structure of the corridor arched dome can be called , a continuous fresco on the top of the head shows different stories for the believers.
Dong Zheng even saw a familiar scene: Jesus was nailed to the cross, the Holy Father opened his arms behind him, the Virgin Mary and St. John stood on both sides, and the well-shaped dome enveloped the four. If he remembered correctly, the painting was called The Holy Trinity, and it was a fairly well-known religious painting.
The small rooms were all locked, and Dong Zheng pushed seven or eight rooms in a row before finally opening a door.
This is probably a warehouse with a lot of wooden boxes piled up. Dong Zheng walked in, and he reached out and touched the top box, and touched the dust on his hand.
The window was half open, and there was half a bloody handprint on the window sill, as if someone had escaped from the room through the window. Dong Zheng leaned on the window sill and looked out, but he could only see the cemetery in the distance when he came.
He turned around and was startled by the doll behind him staring straight at him, a Pinocchio puppet that was placed in the corner behind the door and could only be turned around after closing the door and walking into the room. See.
The long-nosed puppet wears a yellow hat and overalls and sits on a box. Its joints are probably connected by wires, so loose that when Dong Zheng picks it up, its limbs sag naturally. The calf is still shaking constantly.
Pinocchio represents a lie, is his guilt related to the lie? Dong Zheng didn't know, he couldn't connect the long-nosed puppet with the newspaper for the time being.
Dong Zheng left the room and continued to explore until the end of the corridor. He stopped and frowned. According to the measurement of his footsteps, the interior of the church was smaller than it looked from the outside. There must be many darkrooms here.
