[Fuck… ]
[What floor is Xie Chi on this wave? ]
[The cow is really amazing! ! ]
[Gan, my enthusiasm for the new actor is now all transferred to Xie Chi, dreamy]
[Xie Chi is smarter than Shen Yi, I rely on it... If Shen Yi's father can fight, Xie Chi is outrageous, is this still a human? ! ]
[Confused all the way]
[Jiang Shuo, I'm thinking, is also the operation of the boss... Why is it so inconspicuous now]
[No harm without contrast? ]
[You guys are funny, what about leading? The actor really wanted to kill Xie Chi in advance. Isn't Xie Chi the only one who was stepped on the ground? How do you say that, in the face of absolute force, wisdom is useless]
[Yeah, does Xie Chi have red props, a bunch of idiots, this is a place where IQ alone can win? If he doesn't have the strength to talk nonsense, he can babble.]
[Where did the group of kneeling and licking the actor come from? Can't stand up, can you? ]
[Can you stop talking so ugly, it's a fact]
[fact? You fucking watch, it's not Xie Chi himself, you know the truth]
[clearer than you know]
[Are you blind? ? The fact is that Xie Chi is ahead]
["temporarily" leading thanks]
[Don't be noisy, it's annoying, can't you just watch it quietly? ? ]
…
There was a lot of quarrel in the barrage, Xie Chi didn't know it, he took the two back to the hall, found a table and sat down, took out his tarot cards again, and placed them one by one on the huge dining table. stand up.
Because it was him who died next, it was not safe for him to go back to the room, so he temporarily chose to stay in the hall without any traces of lightning strikes.
Ren Ze looked at Xie Chi, who didn't say a word about tarot, and felt more and more that Nu Wa was eccentric when she threw mud and made a human, and her brain was probably thrown to the ground by her.
There was no one else in the hall. After Xie Chi was finished, he waved to the two who were waiting for him: "Come and see."
Ren Ze hurriedly stretched out his head, and Ye Xiaoxiao also stood behind Xie Chi.
Xie Chi said: "At present, it is basically determined that there are only major arcana cards in the dungeon, that is, 22 cards."
Ren Ze and Ye Xiaoxiao have no objection to this. This is the progress now, and the plot is still confusing. It doesn't look like there are 56 little arcanas left. Otherwise, in terms of the complexity of the plot, it will take at least ten nights to clear it up.
Xie Chi pointed to the dozen or so cards that were farthest from him, and said, "These have already appeared."
There are neatly placed cards, the first moon and stars, the wheel of fortune and the tower after, the fool, magician, pope, queen, emperor, pope, couple, hermit, and hanger just now.
As of now, a total of 13 major arcana cards have appeared, and only 9 major arcana cards have not appeared.
Xie Chi pointed to the 9 sheets in front of him: "There are 9 sheets left, in order they are chariot, strength, justice, death, temperance, devil, sun, judgment and world."
"It can be seen that abstract words account for the majority, and the ones that have appeared are basically non-abstract words."
Ren Ze and Ye Xiaoxiao nodded, Xie Chi sorted it out like this, it was indeed much clearer.
Xie Chi sat down and divided the 9 sheets in front of him into several categories: "Come and see."
Ren Ze and Ye Xiaoxiao immediately focused their attention.
Xie Chi: "The meaning of strength, justice, and temperance cards is not very different from its name. The chariot represents willpower. These four cards are grouped into one category, and they are all abstract positive qualities."
"Death and the devil are together."
"There are still 3 cards left, Sun, Judgment, and World. The Sun is included in the astronomical card. At present, it seems that it has been eliminated by the copy, but it is not necessarily; Judgment and World are too abstract, so I won't discuss them for the time being."
After Xie's thoughts were cleared, Ren Ze suddenly had an inspiration: "The god of death, the devil and the tower are a bit similar! They are all relatively negative cards. Could it be other forms of crisis that have not yet appeared in the dungeon?!"
Working backwards from the known tarot cards does give them a lot of clues.
Xie Chi folded his hands and looked up at him, nodding in approval.
Ye Xiaoxiao said hesitantly: "Can these four strengths be ruled out? There is no shadow at all at the moment."
"I don't know." Xie Chi answered very succinctly this time.
He paused, frowned and said, "But I counted the Tarot, and I feel that the dungeons are now complete, and the clues should be given. The remaining few, some are too obvious, some are too abstract, not like It looks like we can go higher, but we are still stalling, which shows that we are ignoring key clues."
Ye Xiao smiled for a moment.
Xie Chi pinched his eyebrows, obviously having a headache. He lowered his eyes, rubbing the thumbs of both hands unconsciously.
That feeling came again, he ignored very important clues, it could be fatal.
After a quick exchange and review with Xie Xinglan, the feeling was even worse.
He forced himself to put aside his congested thoughts and raised his head: "One more thing, the strength of Tarot wizards should increase with the passage of time, and the reason for the increase, the biggest possibility is the death of the actor."
"You mean that the death of an actor is equivalent to 'sacrifice'?" Ye Xiaoxiao had seen many horror films with similar themes, and the word came to mind immediately, "The death of an actor will strengthen the magic power of Tarot wizards. ?"
Ren Ze is also quite aware of this. Many horror movies and the growth system of ghosts and monsters are variants of sacrifice. In the "Blood Demon" filmed by Shen Yi, every time the Gorefiend steals and replaces his body, his own strength will grow a little bit, and it is like this.
Xie Chi nodded and continued: "Xie Qiuying's death method is relatively strange. It is not the lightning of the tower. It is currently unknown whether it is the death card and the devil card, but the biggest possibility is that she killed herself."
"Werewolf killing?" Ren Ze just happened to be very excited to play this in the real world, and he was still a member of the club. He felt unbelievable for a while, "Do you think she committed suicide? Cut herself like that? Doesn't she hurt? Or she can't feel it? , is the body someone else's?"
"I don't know." Xie Chi answered without any hesitation. Now is not the time for nonsense.
Ren Ze suddenly knew what he was wondering: "Actually, I'm very curious, is Xie Qiuying one of the many clones of the witch, or is Xie Qiuying really someone, and she was indeed a cannon fodder at the beginning, but the witch occupied her body?"
These two are completely different systems, and figuring out which one is, can help them understand the witch's methods at a deeper level.
Xie Chi: "I don't know."
Just as Ren Ze was about to be disappointed, Xie Chi paused for a few seconds and said, "But I'm leaning towards the first one now."
"According to the number of actors corresponding to tarot cards, the number of actors is 'ten'. If it is 'eleven', it proves that the extra is not an actor, so she has been one of the witch's clones from the beginning. , there is no such cannon fodder Xie Qiuying."
"She can control her consciousness to wander among multiple avatars. As for whether she can possess herself, it is uncertain."
Ren Ze tasted for a moment: "If this is the case, wouldn't her operation be tantamount to suicide? Doesn't she hurt? Will she not lose her strength due to suicide?"
"This is also something I can't figure out." Xie Chi said.
Xie Chi put the question aside for the time being, supported Yi with one hand, fell into contemplation, and raised his head a moment later: "Follow me."
Ren Ze: "Where are you going?"
Xie Chi walked up the stairs: "There is one point that is too taken for granted and needs to be confirmed."
"Do you have a new idea?"
Xie Chi was silent.
Ren Ze knew what he meant by default, and instantly relaxed from his tense state, and followed Ye Xiaoxiao.
…
At the same time, Gu Yu hid in the closet and pulled the door tightly.
He listened to the movement outside the cabinet, his heart beat a little faster, and he was very nervous. He quietly held the weapon, ready to be discovered at any time.
Jiang Shuo wanted to do other things, and sent him to sneak into the weird maid's room to see if there were any useful clues. As a result, before he had time to rummage, the maid came back.
What the hell. Gu Yu scolded and hid in the depths of the wardrobe. When I looked up, I found some strange numbers engraved on the back of the wardrobe door.
The Arabic numerals are written from 1 to 10, and the 9 is encircled by an engraved closed circle.
Gu Yu was shocked, could this be a clue? He was about to ponder, when the phone screen in his arms suddenly lit up, Gu Yu was startled, realized that Jiang Shuo had sent him a message, and quickly opened the message interface.
Jiang Shuo: Have you found anything
Gu Yu's eyes were close to the crack of the door, and through the tiny gap, he observed the maid, and found that she was sitting in front of the vintage bronze mirror and slowly combing her long black hair, he was relieved, and lowered his head to reply: I didn't have time to see anything, she came back.
Jiang Shuo: How long after you came in did she come back
Gu Yu obviously didn't expect Jiang Shuo to ask this question: almost front and back.
After Gu Yu returned, he suddenly grabbed something.
That's right, I have hidden props and I haven't revealed where I am, so I won't be so unlucky, I just happened to run into her back.
This time, after a long while, Jiang Shuo's news came: there are monitors. Did you meet anyone along the way
Gu Yu's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly replied: No, I opened the hidden props, and the props didn't work until I entered the room.
Jiang Shuo: Then what did you see in the room? Is there anything like eyes and mirrors that can be spied on
Gu Yu's heart suddenly suffocated, he suddenly woke up, and immediately replied: Crow! ! It's a crow! !
When he came in, a crow stared at him wickedly from the window, and then flew away immediately! In a few seconds, the maid came back!
Gu Yu immediately thought of something even more terrifying, his heart pounded wildly, and said: I have been exposed! !
Since it was the crow who tipped off the maid, the maid in the room clearly knew that he was in the closet now...
Jiang Shuo also seemed to realize that the situation was not good: I'll go find you.
Gu Yu turned his head and met a pair of black and bright eyes like a crow.
The dark pupils locked onto him through the gap in the wardrobe.
Gu Yu grabbed the weapon in an instant, and was about to break open the closet to go out, but the closet door was the first to be held down, and he tried his best to be unable to shake it.
With a "crunch", the old wardrobe was opened by someone outside.
Gu Yu was cold and met the strangely smiling face of the maid.
Gu Yu turned over and walked out of the closet, but was dragged back by the shoulders of the maid. His skills were average, and his body was unstable, so he immediately fell backwards, and was pressed to the ground by the maid, unable to move.
The maid opened her mouth to him, and in that scarlet mouth, there was clearly a slender and flat tongue stirring!
Gu Yu was horrified, she was not dumb at all!
Gu Yu immediately remembered that she had never opened her mouth! Although she has been writing and gesturing to everyone, she has never really opened her mouth!
She is pretending!
The order of death is wrong! Otherwise, how could she kill herself! Even if Xie Chi escaped a death crisis and the order of death was automatically moved back, it would be the next Ye Xiaoxiao's turn, not the last one in the order!
The slippery tongue fell and was about to lick his face.
…
The male cannon fodder stood by the door, staring at the three of Xie Chi diligently and timidly.
Xie Chi lay on the outer railing, lowered his eyes and said nothing, his head hurt more and more.
No, not really, not right.
Ren Ze was also completely confused. He turned around and glanced at the male cannon fodder behind him: "Xie Chi, his character is not suitable for a hermit at all..."
Not conforming to any of the hermit traits such as withdrawn, introspective, serene, and obedient to inner calling, he is an ordinary high school boy with no memory except for his age.
Ren Ze felt terrible when he thought about it. If Xie Chi hadn't consciously confirmed it, they would have taken it for granted.
But the result was unexpected. If the tarot cards really correspond to actors, the male cannon fodder in front of him is definitely not a hermit.
He can even rule out the possibility that this person is disguising his true character.
Because there is no motive.
There may be actor vests among the official actors, but it is absolutely impossible for the gray name cannon fodder, because the official actor chooses the copy by himself, and needs to enter the copy for some purpose, and the gray name cannon fodder is forced into a random copy by the app.
An actor who can afford a vest with a lot of points, is this kind of treatment
Xie Chi opened his eyes suddenly, his face gloomy: "Damn."
Ren Ze was shocked and could make Xie Chi speak badly. There must be a major problem, and he said anxiously, "What's wrong?!"
Xie Chi glanced at the male cannon fodder, his face completely gloomy: "Irresponsible guess, he may be a blank card."
Ye Xiaoxiao suddenly turned pale when she heard the term.
Yes, in addition to the Major Arcana, the Minor Arcana, and the Tarot, sometimes there are... blank cards.
Draw a blank card, which means "life will lead you in an unexpected direction", there is a blank in front of you, it is not something that Tarot can predict, everything is possible, but most of it is beyond your expectations, not what you planned product.
If there is a one-to-one correspondence between the character of the actor and the card corresponding to the tarot card, there is a possibility that there may never be a hermit card among them.
Because none of the actors matched the character the Upper Hermit represented.
And the order of death is there, it can't be chaotic, and the tarot cards also have their own order, which can never be chaotic.
It can't be messed up, but... it's still possible to miss one, and it doesn't affect the order of death.
Tarot Fool, Magician, Pope, Queen, Emperor, Pope, Couple, Hanger.
Corresponding actors Liang Wen, Xie Chi, Ye Xiaoxiao, Liang Zhen, Jiang Shuo, Ren Ze, Couple, Gu Yu.
The loss of hermit cards will not affect the order of death of the actors, it is just that the corresponding actor is missing, and the male cannon fodder is expelled.
Missing a hermit card, maybe some... blank card.
It seems very absurd to use the character of the actor to correspond to the tarot card. After all, the actor is signed up by himself, not selected by the app.
But after thinking about it, if the actors' personalities don't match the Tarot cards, the app can add a... character setting to the copy. For it, it's a matter of one sentence.
For example, set Liang Wen as an idiot and set Ye Xiaoxiao as a kind person.
It's just that some of the characteristics of the actors who participated happened to correspond one-to-one with the tarot cards, so the app directly omitted this step and made the copy look natural.
Xie Chi finally knew where the problem was.
He said goodbye to the bewildered male cannon fodder and started going downstairs.
Ye Xiaoxiao hesitated before speaking: "Xie Chi... in the end he..."
Xie Chi looked calm and said with certainty: "He is probably not a hermit, but a blank card, because he happens to be a student, a young man who is just starting out."
"When he grows up, he can become any tarot card. He may be the emperor card with leadership ability, the pope card who spreads education and pays attention to the soul, or the soft egg who can only obey. He even Transgender, become a benevolent queen, an introverted and kind pope."
Ren Ze's face was full of disbelief, and his heart was pounding.
Xie Chi: "Blank cards represent changes and infinite possibilities."
Xie Chi turned his head and glanced at the timid male cannon fodder standing upstairs looking at them. He was thoughtful, seemed to understand something for a while, and sneered, saying, "He may be 'forced' to take away any actor's money. ID card."
"It's a variable in the order of death."
"It's also part of the hidden rules."
Ren Ze was stunned for a moment, his face was ugly: "Is it possible that if the witch wants to kill me, but because of the order of death, she must deal with the other actors in front of me first, but she doesn't need to be so troublesome, she can quietly follow her actions Favorable rules of the game, let the blank card directly take away my identity card, and make me a person without an identity card, so that I will not be in the order of death, and can be massacred by her... And the male cannon fodder inherited my identity cards, it will also inherit the order of my death, completely replace me, and continue this game..."
"So in this game, it looks like there are eleven people on the surface, but in fact there are only eight identity cards, and one is a blank card... Eleven people, plus the couple, nine have identity cards, and one is a witch's avatar , one is blank, which can take away the actor's identity and replace it, but it is not his initiative, the decision is in the hands of the witch..."
Xie Chi hummed softly.
The more Ren Ze thought about it, the more shocked he became.
If so, the consequences can be imagined.
According to the order of death, the actor who didn't deserve to die suddenly died. The actor definitely has a huge question about the order of death at this point, and for the second time.
Xie Qiuying's death has almost succeeded in confounding the public once again. Once again, an actor outside the death order died unexpectedly. Who can still firmly believe that... the order of death is correct
And actors who think they won't die according to the order of death will underestimate their enemies, relax subconsciously, and die unexpectedly, burying themselves.
Actors who think they will die will indulge in fear and sadness, and will not concentrate on the game.
In any case, the two confusions created a situation that was completely beneficial to the witch.
And... witches can rely on this method to skip over people who cannot be dealt with temporarily, such as Jiang Shuo, and directly kill actors who have made a major discovery and can pose a huge threat to her, smothering the danger in the cradle.
There are many birds in one stone.
Ye Xiaoxiao's hand holding the stair railing was tight.
Xie Chi frowned, absent-minded.
No, that problem has not been solved before.
He still didn't remember what he had forgotten, but he had a feeling that it was very close.
"Xie Chi, then what should we do?" Ye Xiaoxiao was already at a loss. Such a cunning opponent made her completely unable to adapt. She felt that the difficulty of the red piece was indeed beyond her expectation.
Xie Chi dragged a chair again, sat in front of the Wheel of Fortune in the hall, and calmly said: "It doesn't matter, it's actually a good thing for us to know that there may be blank cards."
He smiled meaningfully.
Ren Ze was full of doubts, his mind was never in the same channel as Xie Chi.
Xie Chi said succinctly: "We just wait. Once there are actors who die out of the order of death, we can be sure that there are blank cards. This is the first step."
"Secondly, once he dies, it is very likely that he has made a major discovery, which gave birth to the witch's killing intent. We can know what that major discovery is as long as we follow the path of his death and go back all the way."
"Third," Xie Chi suddenly smiled mysteriously, "it may be possible to explore why there is a lack of a hermit card at that time."
