Su Zimo is not a professional in feeding others medicine.
He had tried feeding calcium tablets to the puppy he had raised at home before, but the puppy clenched his teeth and didn't relax at all, and Su Zimo was at a loss all of a sudden.
But for Liu Xu, this doesn't seem to be a troublesome thing. He just stretched out his hand and "clicked" the snake's jaw off when the poisonous snake was desperately roaring. After throwing the white capsule into his mouth, A bottle of drinking water was taken from the supplies on the dining table, and the lid was twisted and poured into the snake's mouth.
At first, the poisonous snake refused to swallow and let the water overflow from its mouth.
But then, Liu Xu slammed him into a certain part of his body again, and the next second the poisonous snake swallowed the water and sleeping pills into his stomach.
After Liu Xu restored the poisonous snake's jaw, the poisonous snake originally wanted to spit out the sleeping pills before they took effect, but after retching for a long time, there was no effect. Said: "Don't take the customs clearance so easily. You have wasted so much time on me, and you haven't found a chance to survive in the end? Hahahaha, I will be happy to meet you in the next nightmare world!"
"And you... I'll find you." The poisonous snake was so angry that its red eyes stared at Su Zimo's direction, "Then put the slave mark on your arm!"
"Well-"
Not long after the poisonous snake finished speaking, the whole person seemed to have drank several jars of high-concentration wine, and sat on the chair and swayed. After a while, the poisonous snake fell into a drowsiness as soon as its head fell, with its hands shackled behind its back.
"He took sleeping pills? Will he wake up in a while?" Bai Man looked a little worried about the efficacy of the medicine.
But Su Zimo knew that it was no ordinary sleeping pill at all, and the poisonous snake, the owner of the ghost weapon, should also know that the sleeping pill would make him fall asleep for a long time, and even prevent the invasion of the Specter!
"No matter what, we still have to find clues about the chance of survival as soon as possible." Su Zimo said, and looked at the other practitioners around, "Let's think about it together, except for the story between the patient and the servant. , what clues do I have that I've accidentally overlooked? Anything is fine."
When Su Zimo and Du Xin looked at each other, the big boy who had always looked at him eagerly, quickly avoided his gaze.
Maybe it was because when the viper suggested the slave imprint to him before, he really hesitated for a while about the relationship, and the distance between him and Su Zimo might have become farther and more difficult to narrow than before.
"Actually, when I first entered this nightmare world, I mentioned one thing. I don't know if it will be useful for this mission." The lunatic over there suddenly raised his hand to signal.
"What's the matter?" Su Zimo thought for a while, but found that he had no memory of it, which means that when the lunatic mentioned it, he didn't even care.
"Remember that piece of cloth that covered the mirror?" The madman looked at the mirror that was very well covered over there, and then said, "That was originally the tablecloth that was laid on the dining table, and when we first came to the hall There are also many plates and cutlery and even candlesticks on the table, the plates on the edge are untouched, and many plates in the middle of the table are filled with food that has long been spoiled."
"It seems so, but because the poisonous snake quickly cleared the table, I almost forgot about it now." Dr. Jin also recalled.
Bai Man, who was standing beside Dr. Jin, changed from the concise and neat manner when he first came to this world. Instead, he stared at the sleeping poisonous snake with a worried expression, as if he was worried that he would wake up in the next second and secretly Just like breaking out of the ordinary handcuffs.
"I said at that time, from the arrangement of the table, it seems that a banquet is being prepared in the hall." The madman said and shook his head, "But then we know more and more information, I I also think that this group of housekeepers and servants will not specially prepare a banquet for the old people on the second floor, and even if there is a banquet, it is just a group of bastards to entertain themselves, so I don't care too much."
"But you said you need any clue, so..."
"Banquet." Su Zimo repeated the word, and then said thoughtfully, "Actually, when I experienced this nightmare world, I always felt that it was like a designed game to break through. What we saw in the servant's room, and what was displayed in various rooms on the third floor, became clues to our understanding of what happened. If we think so... The banquet in the hall may not be a useless self. Have fun."
"Assuming this is a banquet for the old man, then they have completely imprisoned the old man, why do they prepare the banquet with kindness?" Su Zimo couldn't help thinking.
"You mean... We are looking for clues through an unreliable speculation?" Doctor Jin had a disagreement at this moment, "Su Zimo, the housekeeper of this villa deceived millions of dollars from the old man's hands. Property, which could have meant tens of millions or more at the time, and it's not surprising that this group of bastards who have had enough of the sweets throws hundreds of banquets to revel in."
"No." The madman shook his head, "Although the dining table was full of plates at that time, there were only four sets of cutlery on the edge for eating, one for the main seat, two for the side, and one for the other. Set, they are preparing a banquet for four people, but the food on the table is so rich that twenty people can't finish it, so I am sure it is a banquet."
"A banquet attended by four people? There are ten people including the housekeeper and the family doctor..."
"There are three people in the villa owner's family plus the old man." Su Zimo thought quickly before Dr. Jin finished speaking, "This must be a very important banquet, and it is important not to step into this villa on weekdays. The family of three must also attend. It is precisely because of this that even if the housekeeper and his group are afraid of being exposed, even if they have a lot of money, in order not to become criminals, they must disguise themselves as ordinary servants in front of the family of three, and prepare this banquet well. Even let the old man... also attend this banquet?"
"But aren't they worried that the old man will tell everything? Even if the blockade on the second floor is removed on the day of the banquet, wouldn't the old man take this opportunity to tell everything?" Problem found.
All the problems seem to focus on the elderly, and there is always one hurdle to overcome.
After pondering for a while without results, Su Zimo simply put the question aside, and began to think again: "What is the banquet so important? If it is a family attending the banquet, it should be related to some festivals or special dates. ? Date... I seem to have seen a special date somewhere..."
"The housekeeper's ledger? No, that day was wrong..."
Even with a computer, it takes time to organize some data.
So Su Zimo, who didn't find the key key for a while, raised his head and asked the other practitioners: "I think this banquet should be related to a special day, such as a festival, have you found calendars in other rooms before? thing?"
"There is one in the housekeeper's room," said Mr. Fang Qin, walking vigorously. After a while, he found a dirty wall calendar in the housekeeper's room, "The wall calendar was torn four pages away, and this Zhang's May calendar has a circle drawn on it."
"It's May 15th." Su Zimo's tone was very positive.
"That's right." The old man Fang Qin was surprised, "It is indeed the fifteenth day."
Everyone's eyes immediately focused on Su Zimo.
"After all, I was reading the postscript before, and you may not have noticed this little thing." Su Zimo looked at the number "15" outlined in thick ink on the calendar, and suddenly felt a little tired, "May 15th It's the birthday of the old man's granddaughter Bai Pingting."
"I should have thought of it a long time ago!"
Su Zimo patted his forehead, then took off the backpack he was carrying, and took out the two things he found in the cabinet of the master bedroom on the third floor when he first came to this world.
[Nightmare brand lotus root pink dress (no star)]
[Description: Put it on, you are my little princess. ]
[Nightmare Teddy Bear (no star rating])
[Description: Best not to leave kids and toys alone in a room at night... just kidding. ]
"I found this in the master bedroom before. When I found it, they were all put in a tattered box with a tattered tape on the outside. Now I think it should be a gift box and ribbon for birthday gifts." Su When Zimo was holding the big teddy bear, there was an inexplicable sense of harmony in the eyes of outsiders, "The banquet being prepared in this hall should be the birthday party of the old man's granddaughter. The whole family agreed to be in this villa. birthday."
"I really admire how you can hide such a big thing in your bag." Qi Xiaomin couldn't help hiding her face.
"It's not just a birthday party." The madman said suddenly, "It's still an unfinished birthday party. After all, the arrangement of the tableware has not been moved at all, which means that this party has ended before it even started! We are not only in a An abandoned villa, or an unfinished birthday party!"
[boom! ]
As soon as the madman's voice fell, there was another loud noise from the second floor above the hall, and then another familiar cold wind blew through. All the candles in the hall were blown instantly, and the entire hall suddenly darkened as before.
Su Zimo immediately looked around and found that he could only vaguely see the shadows of everyone around him in the dark, and these shadows looked a little different from every practitioner. For example, after Mr. Fang Qin handed the calendar to Su Zimo just now, he has been standing by Su Zimo's side, but when Su Zimo turned to look, he didn't see the thin old man, but saw a very Tall and very fat figure!
It was different from all the practitioners Su Zimo knew.
[Ah… uh uh… ah-]
Another series of inexplicable voices sounded in the direction of the stairs. Su Zimo and the others followed the voices and saw a figure sitting in a wheelchair at the entrance of the stairs.
[boom! boom! boom! ]
The figure slapped the armrest of the wheelchair eagerly, making a thumping sound that Su Zimo had heard before, and at the same time made a vague sound, which made people confused about what he was trying to say.
A few seconds later, when the cold wind disappeared from the hall, the candles that had been blown out were lit again, and even burned higher and brighter, re-illuminating the entire hall as if it were daytime, and even made people feel a little dazzling.
"It seems that your argument has been accepted, lunatic." Dr. Jin raised his eyes and glanced at the lunatic standing next to him, "If you don't 'suicide' quickly, we may close the border soon."
"Actually, this is not bad." The madman scratched his head helplessly, and the corners of his eyes that were always drooping didn't know when he started to regain his energy, "If you count the number of times carefully, if you can pass the level this time, then next time I might be able to participate in the 20th Nightmare World with the hero Liu Xu next to me, after all, there are not many people who have the courage to challenge, and it is quite easy to meet."
"You said before that you don't remember the number of times." Liu Xu "poked" a knife next to him.
"I lied." The lunatic shrugged, "How could I not remember the countdown to my own death?"
The poisonous snake is now the 19th time, while the lunatic and Liu Xu seem to be the 18th time... Su Zimo looked at the practitioners around him, and did not expect that there would be so many critical people in this world all at once.
Critical person, Su Zimo quite likes this title.
"Anyway, judging from the situation just now, the madman's guess has been officially confirmed. There is an unfinished birthday party in this villa." Su Zimo pulled the topic back, "Since it is unfinished, then Maybe someone or a ghost wants this banquet to continue, although I don't know why the old man has been reluctant to speak well. Whether it is about the housekeeper or the banquet, in fact, as long as the old man can tell, nothing will happen. It's going to be such a hassle."
"Maybe it's because he couldn't speak at all." Dr. Jin, who was beside him, stomped his feet in annoyance, "I seem to have guessed what the old gentleman on the second floor was sick with, and I understand why those servants have nothing to do with it. She blocked him on the second floor with scruples, and didn't even worry about the old man revealing their secrets to the outside world."
"what?"
"From the beginning to now, we have always been randomly divided into different rooms, only when we wear obvious uniforms will we be divided into the corresponding room, it may not just be a prank, but because of the people who do it... Or ghosts confuse the relationship between places and characters, and the ability to judge and even understand and arrange things has declined." Dr. Jin suddenly became serious, "In simple terms, elderly people with this disease often put things in the wrong place."
"Also Li Gui has been making those vague and indistinguishable voices, probably not because he wanted to scare us, but because he lost most of his language skills." Dr. Jin took a deep breath, "Even Li Gui caused us damage. aggression, which can correspond to mood swings and irritability at the onset of this condition."
"Thinking about it this way... This serious illness may also be the reason why the old man's children and granddaughter left the villa resolutely. In their eyes, the sick old man may be a burden." Dr. Jin said, pinching his side angrily. madman's arm.
