The author's diary of ghost stories

The shadow of death spread out rapidly with the cruise ship as the center, destroying all the barrels in the waves in an irresistible manner.

At the same time, the money-keeping ghost behind Aze stepped forward like a puppet, and his body quickly decomposed and restored to the most primitive large number of turbid points, like a group of mad bees drilling out of the window and rushing to the barrels on the sea.

"Ahem." Aze couldn't help coughing twice, his eyes looked even darker, but his face was slightly flushed as if it was a last gasp, "It's okay, although it has become a wooden man, I can still command Wuyan to help you."

"You can let 'Zhi' and the consciousness come first, and don't use Wuyan's power if you can." Yu Liang looked at him like this, and was really afraid that he would die on the spot, so he wanted to stop the money-keeping ghost from casting a spell.

"No, it's better to solve the root of the barrel man as soon as possible. That guy doesn't seem to have any motivation to resist." Aze shook his head, as if he had sensed something.

The wooden barrels on the sea surface rose and fell with the waves. Under the siege of those swarm-like turbid points and shadows, they melted quickly like spring snow under the scorching sun, and lost all their vitality in the blink of an eye. Only a few barrels in the southeast were still struggling to support.

"The location has been basically confirmed. The barrel man's roots are in those barrels. Let the consciousness help me, I can catch him out." A confident smile appeared on Zhi's face. She also felt that the barrel man's roots seemed to be very out of shape and unable to fight against the joint efforts of the three roots of them.

Is it because the barrel man's roots in this timeline were suppressed too badly by Aze, or because the barrel man's roots simply gave up this timeline again?

Miss "Zhi" would not think about the answer to this kind of thing. She only needed to know that she could weaken some of the barrel man's roots again. No matter what the other party wanted to hide, it would definitely be right to deal with one-sixth or one-fifth of the barrel man's roots here.

With the three consciousnesses working together, they quickly limited the reincarnation of the barrel man's origin to a very small range, and then the turbid point began to frantically decompose and melt the surface of the wooden barrel. The claws formed by the shadow completed the final blow, dragging the barrel man's origin, who was struggling and even careless, into the boundless dark swamp.

"Success." Aze, who had completed the initial execution, breathed a sigh of relief, and looked back at the few people with eyes that seemed not so tired, "I have no problem here, but it's a pity that the money-keeping ghost is a special product of this timeline. You can't take it away, so let Him stay here with me and wait for the last day."

He smiled freely and said, "Except for this life, I really have nothing to give you."

What do I need your life for?

Yu Liang wanted to say this, but for some reason he remained silent. He just reached out and patted Aze on the shoulder: "Take care, I will try my best to get rid of the guy in the main timeline in two days, and we'll talk about the rest later."

"Of course." Aze sat back on the bed in this room. He threw away the simple crutches in his hand, lay on the creaking wooden bed, and waved his hands weakly, "Forgive me for my poor hospitality, you can do whatever you want. On the end day, as long as you hold on to the end, maybe I can save your life."

Strictly speaking, this timeline is three days faster than the main timeline, but the end days of different timelines are actually the same in time.

It's two days later in the main timeline, it's still two days later here, and it's a few months later in the Yuanshen timeline. The end points of all time and space lines point to this time.

The process of executing the root of the barrel man was very fast and almost took up little time, but Yu Liang and others had to continue waiting here. It would take three hours before they could successfully cross to the timeline they wanted to go to.

During this process, Yu Liang wanted to ask Aze, but Aze snored slightly soon after lying down, as if he had been able to sleep peacefully for the first time in so many days.

Therefore, Yu Liang did not intend to disturb him, but used the second consciousness to reinforce the seal of the barrel man's origin again.

This seal, which he named "execution", is different from Aze's original seal. Originally, the barrel man's origin was only suppressed, and its own activity was reduced, but it still had the rule ability of "passive reincarnation" and "mental pollution", but now after the baptism of the word symbol "zhi" and the reinforcement of the consciousness, the "sense of existence" of the barrel man's origin is already negligible.

In other words, his entity in this timeline is almost non-existent. If the origin is not in the main timeline, the barrel man's origin at this moment has been completely wiped out of consciousness and completely escaped into reincarnation.

The rules of the root ghost talk are immortal, but the consciousness of the root ghost talk will disappear. The root ghost talk that has not been proved by the logic of causal existence may be "spiritually dead" due to the erasure of consciousness.

Yu Liang had figured this out when he was in Wangcheng. With the support of the theory, he came up with the strange story of the Moon Butler, the source of the "immortal spirit".

A few hours passed quickly. Yu Liang took a last look at Aze lying on the bed and asked with a little confusion: "If there is such a 'keyboard' controlling our fate, do you know how to 'transcend'?"

"This question is really stupid. Isn't the answer always on the puzzle?" Aze's face was covered by the quilt, and the somewhat dull voice came from inside the quilt.

"Okay." Yu Liang was calm. No matter what the consciousness in the Yuanshen timeline wanted to tell him with the diary, he didn't need to worry about it. He just needed to take it as an option.

——

As the only different space line in the current cell, the actual location of Flatland is inside Room 225 high above the cruise ship in the main timeline.

Since Flatland already has "ocean" and "land" and two-dimensional creatures live, it can be basically consistent with other timelines without much transformation.

There are barrel man roots in the "ocean" and cruise ships at the same time. There are two-dimensional creatures on the "land". They live away from the ocean, so the spiritual pollution of the barrel man roots on them can be weakened to a certain extent.

Shadow Yu Liang descended on Flatland earlier. Compared with the barrel man roots, the power he relied on was much stronger.

At first, it was really hard to rely on the normal Yu Liang panel alone. He survived hard in the tracking of the barrel man roots. Fortunately, he still remembered the route that the adventurer had taken to the computer desktop, so he found a way to leave the main body of Flatland.

The next path was very simple. He successfully attracted the attention of the desktop pet, so the desktop pet temporarily separated from the real Yu Liang and came to the Flat Country.

The ability of the desktop pet is actually very weak, and it can basically only be used in a fixed two-dimensional world, but at least in this two-dimensional world, she is absolutely invincible.

The barrel man's root, which was just arrogant, was thrown into the bottom layer in just a moment, and the desktop pet also locked the layer.

If someone can open the layer of this two-dimensional world and take a look, they may find that the barrel man's root is like being locked in the eighteen layers of hell, because the desktop pet really prepared several layers to block him and the top Flat Country layer, which makes the barrel man's root unable to even affect the two-dimensional creatures in the Flat Country by mental pollution.

In the two-dimensional world, the barrel man's root does not even have the ability to resist, because he is always just a root ghost in the layer, and there is no comparison with the rules outside the layer.

It is precisely for this reason that after Yu Liang converted to a two-dimensional state and entered the Flat Country, the process of cleaning the barrel man's root became easier.

Although the desktop pet and Miss "Zhi" disliked each other, this did not prevent them from having a perfect cooperation. They even executed the barrel man's origin without entering the lowest layer. This was probably the most confused time for the barrel man's origin. Everything was unknown. Unknown attacks came from unknown places and unknown directions, and a familiar execution ceremony was performed on Him.

With the third consciousness sleeping, Yu Liang completed the execution of the three barrel man's origin clones. After waiting for more than ten hours, he finally returned to the main timeline. At this time, there was only one and a half days left before the end of the day.

The entire cruise ship was nervously arranging weapons to fight against the barrel man's invasion, setting up guards and defense lines everywhere. Since the cruise ship already had rich experience in fighting against the barrel man, everything seemed orderly.

Yu Liang could only stay here for a short two hours, so he took out almost all the strange creatures in his universe that could participate in the barrel man's battle, including the grass infant mecha, the mother body of the sentinel beast, and various ghosts.

Secondly, some high-tech weapons brought out from the Yuanshen timeline were also used at this time. These things were naturally provided to their own people in the Haicheng Alliance first.

Several founding seats naturally don't need this kind of weapon, but adventurers and Xu Cixi can still use it. They don't need to fight on the front line, and it's also good to provide firepower support in the rear.

Adventurers have accumulated a large number of rule origins, which can be used together to produce word symbols. Although they are few, they are of many types. Xu Cixi's ability can also ensure that the people of the Haicheng Alliance will not be invaded by the barrel man's root spirit, and can provide a purification effect at a critical moment.

At the same time, Yu Liang also looked for the whereabouts of Yu Niang and Li Geng, but it was a pity that the two people seemed to have completely disappeared from the cruise ship.

Time was tight, Yu Liang didn't care about the situation in the dark line, but entered the Yuanshen timeline for the second time. After finding the Yuanshen, he executed the last visible barrel man root at the moment, and then the Yuanshen completely ended the timeline, allowing Yu Liang to return to the main timeline before the end of the day.

This time, he filled up the inventory that he had emptied in advance, and brought along hundreds of pirated players cultivated by the Yuanshen. These players can use weapons and characters, which gives them a certain combat power. They are placed in the scene cards of the universe, and they can be released as long as they travel back to the main timeline.

"It's just like a strange story world." The Yuanshen in the ventricle laughed.

Yu Liang looked at the sea city that was completely in a state of time stasis, nodded and repeated: "It's just like a strange story world."

After a series of special forces tourist-style crossings, Yu Liang walked out of the bathroom of his room again.

At this time, the guest rooms of the entire cruise ship can be said to be empty. He searched all the way and finally saw the familiar people of the Sea City Alliance on the overtime.

"Back?" The adventurer was the first to notice Yu Liang coming from the back.

"Back." Yu Liang responded softly, cheered up to eliminate the fatigue in his mind, and then looked in the direction everyone was looking at.

At the end of the field of vision was a vague land, which seemed to be the direction of the pier.

"No, there are still seven hours to go until the end of the day. Have we arrived at the dock in advance?" Yu Liang glanced at the time and noticed something was wrong.

The coach looked far away and came to the conclusion:

"No, the speed of the cruise ship has not changed. We still have seven hours to go before we arrive. As for the shore of the dock we see now... that is not the shore, but the barrel people stretching from the dock to here." (End of this chapter)
