[Xie Chiwei! ! ]
[cool hahahahahahahaha]
[Hey Xie Chi is out of time]
Less than ten minutes after You Jie's death, the third night ushered in. Everyone simply followed Jiang Shuo down to the first floor and stopped in front of the Wheel of Fortune.
Jiang Shuo was full of thoughts, and absently dialed the needle.
The pointer slowly stopped, and everyone was stunned, then looked overjoyed.
The pointer unexpectedly stopped on the side with Anubis, which means that the stars will dominate the sky in the next few hours, and they are relatively safe.
This is undoubtedly exciting news.
The actors dispersed one after another, and Gu Yu stood beside Jiang Shuo, waiting for him to signal.
Jiang Shuo leaned against the wall, took out the pure black crossbow from the app's backpack, and tied it to his left hand little by little.
His movements were light and meticulous, and he seemed to cherish this prop.
It was this item that aimed at the enemy, penetrated the foggy forest of tombstones, inserted straight into the back of Shen Yi's heart, and inflicted heavy damage on him.
Gu Yu recalled, and couldn't help but feel a little frightened.
This is the red top-level item that is as famous as the Gorefiend Sword, the Void Crossbow.
Because the crossbow bolts are as fast as lightning, they sway without shadows, as if they were shot straight from the boundless void, so it is called this name.
There are two kinds of arrows in the Void Crossbow, one is the ordinary crossbow arrow, which is continuously produced and will never run out; the other is the chaser that only produces one and can only accumulate at most two in a horror movie. Soul-killing arrow.
Normal crossbow arrows are black, and soul chasing arrows are red.
The one that hit Shen Yi before was the Soul Chasing Arrow.
Soul chasing arrow, as long as the flesh tissue, such as blood, hair, etc. of the person or ghost being chased, is smeared on the arrow, it can make it effective. The Soul Chasing Arrow will chase the breath of the person or ghost until it hits, and there is no way to avoid it.
Often one hit kills.
Jiang Shuo got on the black ordinary crossbow and said with a sneer, "Come upstairs with me and kill the crow."
…
Xie Chi was sitting on the stairs covered with thick carpet, while Ye Xiaoxiao and Ren Ze were leaning on the railing to look at him. They had already learned how to behave well, so they would not say anything to interfere with Xie Chi's thoughts at this time.
Xie Chi drew out the tarot cards again, looked at them one by one, the cards slipped from his fingertips, and quickly scattered down the stairs, Xie Chi threw all the remaining cards in his hand on the steps beside him in annoyance.
Xie Chi: "Brother, I always feel like I've missed something."
"Don't worry, think about it again." Xie Xinglan said warmly.
When Xie Chi was concentrating on his thoughts, Xie Xinglan usually fell into a deep sleep by himself, so as not to cause unnecessary interference to his logical activities. This copy is really compact and dangerous, and there is no extra time for them to communicate.
He has always been.
Xie Chi snorted, and suddenly felt that his head didn't hurt so much. He was about to pick up the tarot cards and continue to read. As if remembering something, he began to look around, his brows suddenly frowned, and he asked Ren Ze next to him: "You See those servants?"
Ren Ze was stunned for a while, yes, he hasn't seen those servants for a long time, he was thinking about the plot before, and didn't pay much attention to those servants, Xie Chi suddenly mentioned it, and he remembered that those people had not seen for a long time.
Xie Chi's expression changed slightly.
There was a sudden "bang" upstairs, followed by the horrified scream of a crow.
With a "click", something hit the ground outside the window.
Ren Ze was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly ran to the window to see that there was a dying crow spitting blood and flapping wings on the ground.
He looked up and suddenly saw a pale hand sticking out from the upstairs window. A black crossbow was tied to the pale hand. The owner of the crossbow was loading an arrow, ready to shoot the next crow. In the dark and gray mid-air, the remaining ten crows seemed to have been greatly frightened and began to flee, and the sound of their wings flapping could be heard for a while.
The black crow's feathers were flying, and the black dots covered the eyes. The scene was really ominous, and the shrill and strange screams in the ears made people shudder. Ren Ze stared at the pool of blood spitting out from the crow on the ground, feeling a little weird in his heart.
"Xie Chi, Jiang Shuo is shooting crows, come and see!" Ren Ze turned his head and said.
Xie Chi jumped down the stairs in three steps and two steps, and rushed to the window, just in the eye of the crow.
The crows have been artificially fed very well. Their eyes were originally black and very energetic, but the eyeball in front of them was empty and gray. The dark eyes were shrouded in an inexplicable shadow, and there was the reflection of Xie Chi inside, which seemed to have a layer of ocean. of sorrow. From the corners of its dirty eyes, there were even hot tears running down the blood.
Xie Chi stared at it for a while, and his face changed drastically: "Damn!"
"What's wrong?!"
Xie Chi's expression was like a great enemy, and Ren Ze was suddenly tense.
Xie Chi called out Xie Xinglan, turned his head and went upstairs quickly, and said as he walked: "The ibis, Thoth, the supervisor of the Akashic Records, the supervisor, the crow is our supervisor!"
Ren Ze immediately recalled that when they first entered the dungeon, Jiang Shuo picked up a red feather.
Xie Chi said that it was the hair of a bird like the ibis in the star card. The ibis was the symbol of Thoth, the Egyptian patron saint of time.
Thoth was the "watchdog" of the Akashic Book of the Universe, so that feather was meant to imply... the ravens were their watchers? !
Ye Xiaoxiao took a breath, that feather actually had such a meaning.
Seeing Xie Chi's expression in a hurry, the two immediately caught up, and Ren Ze said anxiously, "Where are you going, Xie Chi?!"
He and Ye Xiaoxiao looked at each other with doubts in their eyes. Even if the crow was the supervisor, why did Xie Chi react so much
After all, the crows didn't really endanger them at the moment.
Xie Chi didn't have time to answer: "Keep up!"
Xie Xinglan moved quickly and disappeared around the corner in a blink of an eye. Ren Ze and Ye Xiaoxiao chased after him, watching Xie Xinglan go up to the second floor and circled the circular promenade of the ancient castle for half a circle, and finally stopped. In front of the servants' room.
When they picked a room before, they paid special attention to it. The servants' rooms are all here.
Xie Chi kicked open the servant's room, and looked over one by one, his face gradually gloomy.
Sure enough.
Eleven rooms are empty, none of the servants are present, they are not in the room, but they are not outside the room, as if they suddenly disappeared out of thin air.
Ye Xiaoxiao and Ren Ze looked at the eleven empty rooms, completely dumbfounded.
Ye Xiaoxiao: "Where have people gone?"
Ren Ze: "Wait—"
After contacting the suggestion from Ibis' Mao, Ren Ze suddenly reacted: "Did the crow change from a servant??"
There are eleven less servants in the castle, but there are just eleven crows outside...
Ren Ze suddenly remembered more. Those servants always wore black clothes. The clothes were made of unknown wool, shiny and soft...
Could it be crow fur? ! Is that the clothes transformed from the fur on the crow? !
This can also explain why that maid who leads the way can swallow the key! She is not human, she is a crow!
Ren Ze's heart was pounding.
Xie Chi only had time to nod his head to affirm him, and had no time to explain, so he turned and left.
"Where are you going?!" Ren Ze went after him.
Not only did Xie Chi stop, but Xie Xinglan ran as fast as he could without looking back: "Don't follow! Go and stop Jiang Shuo!"
Ren Ze was startled, thinking that he heard it wrong, Xie Chi... stop Jiang Shuo
Isn't that to save the crow
But he also knew that Xie Chi never joked at a critical time, and he was so scared that his heart jumped out. Xie Chi and Jiang Shuo were facing each other at this time, and he would have to lose half his life if he didn't die.
He couldn't catch up with Xie Chi, so he could only roar anxiously from behind: "Don't worry! It's just monitoring, and it's good for us to shoot the crow by Jiang Shuo! Why save the servant! No matter what, don't confront him now. !!"
Xie Chi turned his head and said in a cold voice, "There may be a 'hermit' in the crow."
Xie Chi sighed deeply and tried to keep calm.
He finally knew what he had forgotten.
On the surface, there are eleven actors, but in fact only ten are real actors, and the extra one is a witch's clone.
Then why are there eleven servants and eleven crows corresponding to one of them? ! What is the extra one? !
- He ignored the connection between the actor, the crow, and the servant.
These three are not separate.
When the crows danced, the eleven servants each picked up a crow and stood in a row. The crow flew out of the servants' hands. After the dance, it flew towards them in random order.
It seems to correspond one by one, a servant, a crow, and an actor, but... What if one of the actors is a witch's doppelganger
That becomes ten actors, eleven crows, and eleven servants.
What is the extra servant? What is the extra crow...
Since it is the order of death, only ten real actors have always participated, and Xie Qiuying is not in the order of death, so why are eleven servants and eleven crows participating in the strange dance
All these seem to correspond one by one, but there are many mistakes in careful thinking. The conditions for the eleven actors are not established, and the conclusion naturally falls apart.
If Xie Qiuying wanted to hide among them, she was bound to become the eleventh, and if there was one more "actor", one more crow and one servant would have to correspond to one of them.
This was his previous thinking. He stayed in this place several times, but couldn't go further, and even thought it was a useless road.
But what if, looking back...
Is Xie Qiuying's purpose really hiding among them
Obviously not.
Otherwise, she would not have died so easily. It would be too ridiculous to spend so much energy hiding among them, just because of one or two words of temptation.
After all, apart from the three of them, the other actors were only slightly suspicious of Xie Qiuying at most, and he would never tell other actors that Xie Qiuying had a problem.
Why should she do this? She could just keep lurking.
But pondering, what about the hidden meaning
Xie Chi has been unable to figure this out.
Why did Xie Qiuying hide behind them
It's almost meaningless.
If it's for eavesdropping, wouldn't the crow be a better choice? She can get any information she wants without any effort, but the witch has become such a big living person, and the actors have always been intriguing, how can she easily reveal information to her
Not to mention a cannon fodder with no sense of existence.
If it is for murder, it is even more untenable. The tower card, the death card, and some unknown cards, these cards can easily kill people without a trace, so why should the witch go to the end in person
And up to now, what the witch has done can actually be summed up in only four words - confusion.
Hiding itself is not the end.
The real purpose is to… hide the rules.
Further down, the purpose is to… hide the crow.
It was not for the purpose of lurking among them that a crow and a servant were created to correspond to her.
But... Because there is an extra crow, she needs to create an actor avatar and a servant avatar to cover up the existence of the crow.
It happened that there was a beautiful maid among the servants who was very strange. She praised the woman on the photo frame as "the greatest Tarot wizard".
Behind the deliberate confusion about the order of death, the real hidden key information points are "raven" and "hermit".
And why the witch killed the blank card Youjie, the answer is revealed at this moment - she needs the death of the blank card to cover the real hermit card.
After all, in the eyes of other actors, You Jie is a hermit card.
Even if the actor knew that You Jie was a blank card, because of You Jie's death, he would only think of it, maybe it was just a hermit card missing.
Or Yujie's death convinced them that Yujie knew the key clues about the hermit, but was silenced.
They will start the next exploration around Yujie's death.
Attention shift.
She made the actor focus on Yoo Jae, while ignoring the real clues about the hermit.
The correct number is always "ten", whether it is an actor, or the corresponding number of servants and crows.
Xie Chi didn't think that the extra crow was changed by a witch.
But motivation is everything.
All the actions of the witch are showing her true purpose.
Coincidentally, hermit, literally interpreted, "hidden", alluding to hiding, whether voluntarily or forcedly.
