Ye Lingshi already knew Wu Tan's hint, and he also understood that Xiao Li also knew it, even earlier than him.
He had thought that the detective who called himself Sherlock was a snake spirit, but now he found out that the other party was a very smart snake spirit - this is good, they can try to cooperate, it is always pleasant to deal with smart people, there are As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of god-like opponents, you are afraid of pig-like teammates.
Once all the clues are connected in series, plus Wu's hints, everything is actually quite simple.
Each of them has an identity on their invitation letter, such as Xiao Li is a detective, Ye Lingshi is a priest, and Feng Fengqing is a doctor—this "identity" is the key to this dungeon world.
The handwriting "ear" left by Wu Tan is actually half of "professional", and he did not have the strength to complete the word "professional".
Occupation is "identity", Wu Tian's identity is "teacher", but he did not play a "teacher", even on the contrary, he always wanted to hug Ye Lingshi's thigh and listen to Ye Lingshi's words, he is better than a teacher. More like a student, so he died very early.
And the uncle who was the first to die before, his identity was a "butcher", and the reason why he was the first to die was because he said at the dinner table, "It's bloody, it's disgusting" - this is not in line with a As a butcher, as a butcher, he should be used to blood.
He was the first to die when no one else violated their identity.
The method of death is to be pierced through the heart by a dagger, which is also in line with the word "butcher".
The reason why Wu Tan knew about this was because the ghost who came in to kill him was wearing a teacher's costume and holding a chalk in his right hand, and drew a circle around his body - it reminded him of his identity on the invitation letter. .
And Xiao Li, Ye Lingshi, Feng Fengqing and others, they have been playing detectives, priests and doctors without knowing it, including the young couple, the man He Wei is a businessman, and the woman He Yun is a writer.
Once they see through the law of the dead in the mission, as long as they play their roles, they can avoid the dead end and survive until the seventh day.
As for Xiao Li's question, it was a response to Ye Lingshi.
Since Ye Lingshi likes to test him so much, how embarrassed he is not to repay him
In exchange for Xiao Li's own character, he would not fight back with such an obscure question, but he is now a detective, a great detective, and Sherlock Holmes was possessed by the soul at that moment - ask Wu Tan directly There was so little that he didn't make sense, so he used a simple metaphor for that famous English nursery rhyme.
Who killed the robin? Who killed Wu Tan
Wu fills himself.
Wu Tan's thought of hugging Ye Lingshi's thighs killed him.
Ye Lingshi successfully caught this stalk.
The brown-haired youth showed kindness and compassion on his face, perfectly expressing the emotions a priest should have: "May God accept his soul and let him rest in peace in the spirit of heaven."
The old housekeeper once again carried the body to the cellar. Taking advantage of this free time, Ye Lingshi told several others about the inferred life path.
This is an effective way to survive for seven days, but it is not the truth of this ancient castle, but most people don't care about the truth, as long as they can successfully survive this copy.
After the second day, most of them thought that the crisis was over, and no one would die on the third day, but after noon on the third day, no one came out of the house of the young couple.
When they broke through the door again, they found that the curtains of the room were pulled tightly, three burnt candles were placed in front of the mirror, and the couple, He Wei and He Yun, fell on the carpet hugging each other. On the scene, their entire faces were torn off, and He Wei held a strand of golden hair in the palm of his hand, and the scene was very bloody at one point.
Ye Lingshi's expression changed: "How could someone still die? We thought wrong?"
Feng Fengqing endured the nausea, she squatted down to check the couple, and pulled a sheet from the bed to cover them.
Xiao Li walked to the mirror and looked at the three candles in front of him: "Their way of dying... is different from the previous two."
It's also different from the order in which one person dies every day - the first two died when their identities were revealed, and these two were obviously trying back and forth on the edge of death, and they were really killed.
When he said this, Ye Lingshi also came over, his eyes changed: "Candles are an auxiliary tool for some evil rituals, you mean they... summoned evil spirits?"
Xiao Li nodded, he touched his chin and thought for a moment: "Three candles, Western evil spirits, Bloody Mary?"
The legendary evil spirit who can fight against the Oriental Pen Immortal.
The brown-haired young man beside him said: "It's also possible, I've heard her legend before, saying that she might answer your question, but it's also possible that she would be mad and tear the summoner directly, but such a dangerous evil spirit , why did the two of them summon it? Didn't I tell them all about my life?"
"Are you curious?" Xiao Li said, "You can ask Bloody Mary directly."
Ye Lingshi: "..."
Only then did he feel that Xiao Li was a smart person. He thought that he had a little tacit understanding with him, and he forgot the speechless choking he had heard before when he said, "Go get some food and draw a picture by the way." Now the other party's words made him I remembered that unbearable past - what is it to ask her directly? That's Bloody Mary, a famous evil spirit in the West, and it's not your family's seven aunts and eight aunts. Can you call me and ask
The eldest son of the Ye family organized the language: "Brother Xia, what do you mean by asking her directly?"
Is this a mockery of him? Wouldn't it be serious
Xiao Li said thoughtfully, "Summon out and ask her."
Ye Lingshi: "..."
Does co-authoring this mean that you want to do the summoning ceremony yourself? He has never seen such a dead person, and the evil spirit is not your summoned beast.
"You'd better think about it again, it's a very dangerous thing." Ye Lingshi generally doesn't like to meddle in business affairs, but because of the tacit understanding between the two when they speculated on their death yesterday, he still spoke out and discouraged, "Our purpose is to spend the rest of our lives together. This dungeon world, there is no need to create extra branches."
Xiao Li glanced at him with a half-smile, but didn't say anything or deny - of course he knew it was very dangerous, but he also had certain guesses about this evil spirit, maybe he even made a painting for the other party last night and sold art in exchange for it. How about a plate of snacks
That night, he held the ceremony.
The curtain in the room was completely pulled up, blocking out the moonlight from the outside world, creating a completely quiet secret room.
In the dark room, Xiao Li sat in front of the dresser, put Xiao Huangben in front of him, and then placed three lit candles in front of the large mirror.
The candles burn quietly, twisting into weird shapes in the mirror.
Immediately afterwards, the teenager closed his eyes, folded his hands on his chest, and repeated Mary's name three times: "Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary."
The three candles suddenly rose automatically without wind, a graceful figure passed through the wall, and finally stopped in the mirror in front of Xiao Li.
The woman was blond and blue-eyed, beautiful and compelling, wearing a bright red court dress. She was the person in the painting hanging at the end of the corridor. She glanced at the harmless little yellow book for the first time, but there was a hint in her eyes. There was a trace of fear, and then he restrained his expression, looked up at the black-haired boy in front of him, laughed like last night, and said nothing.
Xiao Li opened his eyes, looked at the notorious evil spirit for a moment, and asked the first question: "The couple who took the initiative to summon you, what are their requirements?"
The Bloody Mary in the mirror bowed, and the brilliance in the mirror flowed, showing what she looked like at that time—
He Yun closed her eyes, He Wei sat on the side and held her hand to give her strength, she said with a trembling voice: "Dear Bloody Mary, please tell us how we can survive in the continuous dungeon world, can you give us The way we've been together?"
He Wei's face showed a hint of greed. After his girlfriend finished speaking, he eagerly lowered his head and prayed: "Mr. Mary, I heard that you will satisfy the request of the believers, please give your believers some strength, I am willing to find them for you. Clean and pure soul in exchange."
The young couple got the summoning ceremony of the evil spirit from somewhere, and they made a wish like a wishing machine. It's strange that they didn't die.
Xiao Li shook his head and asked the second question: "What's the secret in this manor?"
A downward spiral staircase appeared in the mirror, and further down was a door engraved with three vicious dogs, which was tightly locked.
It means... the castle above is just a disguise, and underneath it is the real [Tartalus]
Before Xiao Li opened his mouth and asked the third question, a paragraph appeared on the little yellow book he put in front of him: [Do you know what is the most powerful thing about Bloody Mary?]
Xiao Li was instinctively vigilant, and before he could answer, Xiao Huangben had already asked himself: [She can show the face of the summoner's future husband.]
[Want to see it?]
Xiao Li: "..."
— No, I don't want to.
He already knew what Xiao Huang wanted to say, and he tried to stop it with Erkang's hand, but Bloody Mary had walked away from the mirror, and a vortex appeared in the empty mirror - Xiao Li swore that if a small book appeared in it Huang Ben, he will definitely smash this mirror!
However, what people did not wish was that the scene in the mirror moved from far to near, and quickly drew closer to a banquet hall, and finally focused on the man in the center of the ball. A strand of golden thread stretched out from the mirror and wrapped around Xiao. Li's wrist pulled him hard into the mirror.
When Xiao Li regained his sanity, he found himself in a place.
The high dome holds up the arc, the vast palace reveals a noble atmosphere, the banquet table is filled with all kinds of exquisite food and wine, and the chandelier above the head reflects the colorful lights, which is obviously a certain A dance, but the banquet hall was empty.
At the very front stood a man. He was wearing a gorgeous robe with layers of delicate embroidery on the hem. He looked like an ancient nobleman, but his face was blurred.
The man stretched out his hand towards Xiao Li, Xiao Li noticed that he wore a cold black gemstone ring on his finger, and his every move had a bone-marrow-like elegance, and the voice he spoke was a melodious sound that seemed familiar in the orphanage:
"This is a dance for you."
"Would you like to dance with me? My dear."
After saying the words "my dear", the man paused subtly, as if there was a suffix left unspoken.
