The author's diary of ghost stories

Chapter 334 A sign for the dead

After completing the pioneering work, Yu Liang enjoyed a full two-month vacation. He only had to write a few thousand words a day to be considered a full-day coding task.

There was no way he could do it. When he felt that the copy was still far away, he suddenly lost the motivation to code and save the manuscript. Even the time of coding every day was half-dead, and he was proud of updating four thousand times a day.

Everything is gradually getting on the right track, more and more people are reading books, and more and more people are raising books. Maybe they feel that Yu Liang is too slow to read and it is too hard to catch up.

Yu Liang also had no choice. He had too many things to do every day.

Li Huachao gets up at nine o'clock every morning. By this time, Li Huachao has completed an hour of exercise and walking.

After breakfast, I started typing. I would finish a chapter by about twelve o'clock, and then set off for Xu Cixi's home.

There he needs to prepare the adult grass babies booked by players in the league, and then check the training results of the grass babies mecha team, and look at the language learning results of those grass babies with high IQs.

Secondly, give the control of the body to the little fairy, and let her conduct research on the tank and the palace in the basement and explore the extension method of the meat machine.

At about four o'clock in the afternoon, he had already made an appointment for an offline transaction location through the official website of the Players Alliance, "Guaitanke", and then prepared to go to the location to conduct transactions with those players. Almost every day, he could make an appointment with more than a dozen people. There are many players, sometimes even forty or fifty, a huge area.

These players often wear their own masks. The players under the masks are extremely qualified, and it looks like it is some kind of special gathering.

After completing the Cao Ying transaction, Yu Liang took a turn near the adventurer's farmhouse.

The adventurer has already received sponsorship from his family and has initially built a grass infant breeding farm.

The farm is divided into two parts. The above ground is a chicken farm. The scale of chicken farming is not large. It only requires one or two people to take care of it on weekdays. The underground of the chicken farm is a real grass baby farm.

The space is large, well-equipped and secluded enough.

The most important four words are - "secret base".

There is no man who has not had the dream of a "secret base" when he was a child. Now that he has money and leisure, adventurers do not hesitate to turn this dream into a reality.

This is the design concept of the adventurer. From this, it is not difficult to see that the adventurer mainly wants to play for himself, and helping Yu Liang is just incidental.

According to the adventurer's design, the structure of the entire underground space is very complex, with several secret passages. Each area is encrypted and is mainly divided into a grass infant breeding area, a scientific research area, a test site area, and a residential area.

Of course, this kind of secret base requires a lot of capital investment and construction period, and cannot be built overnight, at least in just two months.

After the secret base is completely built, Yu Liang may move from his small apartment to the breeding farm. This place is far more comfortable than his small apartment.

What's more, he can only feel relieved when he is personally in charge of the grass infant breeding farm. Otherwise, he can't let others take care of these grass infants, right?

During the past two months, the adventurer was very concerned about the secret base. In addition to eating, drinking and having fun every day, he went to the site to personally supervise the progress of the project. This also made Yu Liang, the hands-off shopkeeper, feel a little embarrassed.

Obviously, now the adventurer is taken aboard his profit ship, and Yu Liang will naturally not be stingy with his companions.

The advent of the cold weapon heavy machine gun immediately surprised the adventurer. He couldn't put it down for this long-range weapon. In fact, any player who has been in the world of ghost stories for a long time will not put it down for the heavy machine gun.

The heavy machine guns of the Cao Ying tribe are far inferior to those of the human world, but compared to the local long-range weapons of the Kaitan world, they are a complete dimensionality reduction blow.

Like crossbows, slingshots, javelins, etc., if they don't have strange power, there is no way to touch the heavy machine gun. There is no comparison between the two.

The adventurer is a profession with full endurance, so carrying heavy weight is nothing to him.

The adventurers who traveled around various countries in the early years were naturally familiar with the use of firearms. They were soon able to master heavy machine guns and shoot with good accuracy.

Yu Liang gave him about three basic bullets and airbags. Nearly three thousand bullets were enough for an adventurer to spend the entire copy. If not, he could go to the masked man in the grocery store to buy them.

With the purchase certificate given to him by Yu Liang, the masked man should sell the "contraband" bullets to the adventurer.

This was probably a day for Yu Liang. After repeating this for two months, the number of characters in the piggy jar of the money-keeper became more abundant. The increase in transaction volume made his wealth continue to grow. Some players accepted Yu Liang's rules. Start using Cao Ying coins as a currency to measure value.

Some players will choose to use Cao Ying coins to settle their spontaneous transactions. The purpose of currency is to simplify the transaction process. Before this, no player had the courage and strength to invent a "weird currency" and put it into use in the market.

In terms of credibility, only Cao Ying coins can achieve this, because these gold or silver mirror coins can be directly exchanged for characters at Yu Liang, so no player will underestimate their value.

On the contrary, some players began to use their crooked brains. They forged draft baby coins in an attempt to make profits, but they were often caught on the spot by the money-keeping ghosts.

What a joke, can the money-grubber not know whether it is the money created by it?

These players then turn their targets to other players, but with the simplest method of currency verification, mirroring, it is difficult for ordinary counterfeit banknotes to deceive other players.

Cao Ying coins are mirror currencies, so their mirror images cannot be reflected in the mirror. This is a natural means of detecting counterfeiting, which is convenient and easy to use.

In addition to the money-grubbing guy making a lot of money, the tank road house independently developed by Xiaoxiangu has also basically taken shape.

The construction of the Tank Road requires a large amount of materials, and they can only come from the Kaitan World, otherwise they cannot be installed on the Tank Road and brought into the dungeon.

Fortunately, there is the player alliance's internal website "Gui Tan Ke". He used Cao Ying coins to offer rewards and obtained some relatively high-quality materials to gradually complete the tank tunnel.

It has a perfect firepower ratio, balanced mobility, strong protective capabilities, and a unique shielding function to quickly escape the battle.

There is also a detection device on the surface of the Taoist mansion, which can import the surrounding information into the interior of the Taoist mansion, and then use the "illusion" function of the Taoist mansion to create a virtual reality scene of the outside world. The tanks are more realistic when driven, and the people and vehicles are Oneness.

As for the Grass Infant mecha, several Grass Infants can only perform extremely simple operations on the mecha. Pole dancing is impossible. At most, they can only perform simple tactical actions such as running, jumping, and dodging. As for whether they can understand The military squad combat terminology is even simpler.

For example, o'clock position reporting, tactical detours, enemy attacks, full firepower, half firepower, cross cover, etc.

It can be said that in the face of most small-scale battles, this mecha team composed of ten grass babies is definitely trustworthy.

Until now.

Yu Liang looked at a movie ticket mailed to him and realized that a new copy had arrived.

This is a movie, the name of the movie is "Knowing God", and there is a thumbnail of the movie poster on the front of the movie ticket.

The picture is very blurry, but you can barely see the tall buildings and colorful neon lights in the background. In the corner of the thumbnail, the smoke screen turns into a ferocious human face overlooking the entire city.

"Cyberpunk?" Yu Liang murmured.

Although he knew that the concept of "cyberpunk" was not so superficial, when he saw that unique colorful neon light, such words came to Yu Liang's mind for the first time.

Is this dungeon world cyberpunk?

It looks like another big scene. Could it be that this is also related to the difficulty of the Kaitan dungeon?

Yu Liang thought this while turning the movie ticket to the back.

On the back of the movie ticket is some information about the movie, such as the movie title of "Knowing God", the movie duration is 216 hours, Hall 1, 10 rows and 13 seats.

"The duration is nine days. If the players fill up all the seats, the number of players in the Ghost Story dungeon this time will be at least 130, and there is a high probability that it will exceed 200."

Yu Liang made a quick judgment in his mind, and then his eyes fell on the name column printed on the back of the movie ticket.

Normal movie tickets don’t have a name column, but movie tickets from the Kaidan World do.

"Yu Liang".

The next second, flashing lights of various colors enveloped Yu Liang.

——

late at night.

Yu Liang tightened his clothes and quickly touched his face with his hands to confirm his condition.

Judging from the outline of his face, he was Yu Liang, not some random thing from Dan Shengren.

But what makes Yu Liang a little strange is that there seems to be a mark on his face, extending from the left corner of his eye to the base of his ear, and then along the mandible line to the tip of his chin.

It looks like a seam on his head. You only need to use a crowbar or something like this to pry open his head along this seam.

besides……

The eyes are prosthetic eyes.

Yu Liang touched his right eye. It was not his dominant eye, so he just discovered that it was a prosthetic eye.

When his hand touched the prosthetic eye, pictures immediately appeared in his right eye. These pictures were similar to what he saw with his left eye, except that they seemed to be covered with a weak blue light filter, making everything appear blurry. More blue.

He looked around and observed his surroundings.

This is an alley, very narrow, and can only accommodate two people passing through it at the same time. There are walls on the left and right, and some low-quality LED lights are stuck on the walls, flashing in various colors, which is dazzling.

As for the rear, there is a dead end behind Yu Liang. There is a large amount of garbage piled up at the end of the alley, and the sewage seeping out of it forms a smelly water pool in the low-lying part of the alley.

Similarly, there are some graffiti on the walls, or cartoon versions of playful big heads, or very real Bigfoot, as well as some more outrageous or non-mainstream words.

"Some people die at the age of eighteen and are buried at the age of eighty."

"Death is painless."

"Beware of ghosts, be wary of ghosts, and kill ghosts."

"If you receive orders from Heaven, you will live forever."

Yu Liang's eyes scanned over these graffiti words, and paused for a moment on the sentence "Death is painless".

It seemed that this was not the first time he had seen this sentence. He recalled his experience about this sentence and vaguely remembered that he had seen it in the diary of the mirror spirit girl's real body, and also saw it on Qin Haijian's body in the copy of the moon.

Could it be that these people who were affected by the ghost stories unconsciously wrote this sentence?

Unknown to Yu Liang, he was soon attracted by the word "ghost man".

Ghost Man, is this the unique Kaitan creature in this Kaidan dungeon?

His gaze continued downward, and there were some other words below, long and long words.

"If a ghost person lives a disorderly life, it obviously means that it is involved with evil spirits;"

"If a ghost is pious and moral, then it is obvious that it is disguising itself in order to deflect suspicion that it participates in a society of evil spirits at night;"

"If it appears frightened when interrogated, it means it is guilty and its remaining conscience gives it away;"

"If it always believes that it is innocent and remains calm, then it means that like other ghosts, it is especially good at lying;"

"If it is crestfallen, frightened and silent, it is obviously a sign of guilt;"

"If it keeps looking around during the torture, it must be looking for its evil spirit;"

"If its eyes are dull and looking in one place during the torture process, then it is very likely that it has seen its own evil spirit;"

"If it dies during torture, it means that the evil spirit wants to keep its secret and takes its life;"

"If it did not die during the torture, huh, doesn't that mean it is a vassal of the evil spirit? We need to increase our efforts, otherwise we will miss the opportunity to kill the evil spirit."

After reading a series of words, Yu Liang's brows gradually furrowed.

It seems that as long as someone is suspected of being a "ghost man", no matter what signs they show, they will prove this suspicion.

From this wall alone, Yu Liang could feel that the mental state of the NPCs in this dungeon was worrying. They were in a sensitive, fragile and suspicious state, and could go crazy at any time.

So what exactly did these so-called "ghosts" do?

With such doubts, Yu Liang walked through the bright, damp and smelly alley, and a sign suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Golden Robe Exorcism Office, one plus one exorcism, catch a ghost, send a ghost away, golden robe Taoist Hua Nujiao is here to serve you wholeheartedly, all the services you want are available here~"

"This... this exorcism center doesn't sound very serious." Li Huachao thought thoughtfully, "Isn't it really a brothel or something?"

Yu Liang nodded slightly in agreement.

Whether it is the so-called "catch a ghost and send a ghost" or the name of the golden-robed Taoist priest "Hua Nujiao", these information all reveal a strange flavor.

He walked around the sign and looked back. He was getting further and further away from the end of the dead end. From the corner of his eye, he noticed that the sign was one-sided.

Then Yu Liang looked at the street outside the alley. The streets were decorated with lights and colorful decorations, and red lanterns were hung everywhere. The doors of every house were closed tightly, and bright red couplets were posted on the doors.

He noticed that almost every house had cameras at the door. They were spherical and could rotate 270 degrees to capture the scene on the street.

There was no one on the street, and it was eerily quiet, indicating that there seemed to be a strict curfew.

Is it because of the "evil spirit society" mentioned on the graffiti wall?

At this time, Yu Liang suddenly noticed that four or five people in uniforms walked out of the alley on the other side of the street. They were potbellied but very alert. Several pairs of fox-like long eyes kept scanning the street, seeming to be looking for them. What are you wearing?

Are you searching for people who join the Evil Spirit Society?

It's best not to get caught. Judging from the situation seen on the graffiti wall, if you are caught, you will not be able to clear your suspicion.

They came out of the alley, which shows that these people will search the alley, so they cannot hide in the alley.

Yu Liang took out the mirror from the inventory, but the scene shown in the mirror was blurry. The city in the mirror was shrouded in an inexplicable and weird smoke, which was daunting.

Smoke, as seen on movie tickets, smoke forms evil spirits, so you can't hide in the mirror.

It was too late to climb up the walls on both sides of the alley, and that would also be seen by law enforcement.

Now that he has just entered the Kaitan dungeon, Yu Liang does not dare to gamble with Kaitan creatures. If those law enforcers are not afraid of his Kaitan creatures or heavy machine guns, then the current conflict will cause the rhythm of his early dungeon to completely collapse.

If he was wanted by the city's officials, this dungeon would basically be over.

Forget it, since this is an exorcism center, you should have some restraint on evil spirits, right?

In desperation, Yu Liang had no time to think of a foolproof strategy, so he could only hide in the exorcism center before the law enforcers approached.

It was pitch dark inside the exorcism center and he couldn't see anything, but now that he was hidden in the darkness, he didn't dare to turn on the lights. Turning on the lights would expose himself to the eyes of the law enforcers.

The silence and darkness enveloped him completely, making him unable to see anything except the red light on the street.

There is a slight smell of ash in the air, which is pleasant to the mind.

In the central hall, three incense sticks were placed in the incense burner. There were only extremely weak sparks, and they could not illuminate anything.

Yu Liang lurked in the darkness, planning to wait until the law enforcers left before making any plans.

The law enforcement officers gradually approached. Every time they came to a store door, they would knock on the door, check some Spring Festival couplets, and use a large brush to draw a red circle on the door of the store to express censorship. Finish.

Then they walked straight past the exorcism house, as if they couldn't see it.

Was it missed?

The shops on the street correspond to each other, how could they be missed?

Can these law enforcers not see the exorcism house?

Or do exorcism centers not exist at all?

Yu Liang felt his heart beating wildly. This differential treatment made him involuntarily start thinking wildly.

Of course, facts will prove that the random thoughts in the world of weird stories cannot be unnecessary.

It seemed like he had missed some details.

Yes, details.

Graffiti wall.

dead end.

Rubbish.

stench.

go ahead.

Shop sign?

By the way, the sign.

The sign is one-sided, with information on only one side, and faces a dead end.

Why doesn't the sign face the street but only a dead end?

Who is this sign for?

it……

Aren't you giving signs to the living people on the street?
