Xie Liuyi clearly remembered that the inn was indeed marked on the small map on the back of the cableway ticket. She thought that all this was caused by the spirit of the banyan tree, and it was also the one who controlled Fang Lan at the foot of the mountain. But now it seems that in addition to the spirit of the banyan tree, there is another more powerful existence in this world.
This existence first changed the place name, weakened the control of the banyan tree spirit over the world, and locked Fang Lan at the foot of the mountain, controlling her to become the game NPC in Zhou Haiyang's mouth.
What about the inn? What's the point of turning an abandoned staff dormitory into an inn?
Fang Mahua said that there had been murders in the staff dormitory, Xie Liuyi suddenly thought of the old lady in the inn who was dressed out of fashion.
"Who died?" she asked.
"Old Mrs. Zhao. She is a lonely old man, and her family is in difficulty. The scenic spot arranged for her to work as a breeder to provide food and accommodation. She is almost seventy, and she can't do any heavy work. Speaking of the deceased, Fang Mahua stopped her movements and sighed, "It was the off-season at that time, and it was the New Year's Eve. All the non-local employees went home, and there was no one in the dormitory. When she found out, Mrs. Zhao's body was stiff. "
Hearing this, Xie Liuyi felt a coolness in the vest climbing all the way from the tail to the top of his head.
"What was she wearing when she died?"
Fang Mahua gave her a strange look, but answered honestly: "I didn't watch it, we are taboo to touch this. But Mrs. Zhao has no money, and a black jacket will spend the winter I guess he was wearing a black jacket when he died."
Sixties, black jacket, all of this coincides with the old lady last night. But the old lady is obviously alive!
The spirit of the banyan tree can only turn the villagers into the living dead, and it is not it that resurrects the old lady, but another existence. It can actually intervene in reincarnation? !
Xie Liuyi immediately wanted to rush back to the inn, but was pulled by Fang Mahua, "Miss, what are you doing? Mahua is about to be installed. Don't think I'm slow, put more layers of moisture-proof, can be more Leave it for a few days."
Without waiting for Xie Liuyi's reply, he sped up the second bag of twist.
Fang Mahua seems to have not spoken for a long time, and finally met someone who can talk to her, her hands kept moving and her mouth was chattering.
Xie Liuyi was in a hurry to go back, but when she heard Fang Mahua's nagging, she was instantly seized.
"Actually, everyone said that the old lady was beaten to death." He lowered his voice mysteriously, "It's the nephew of the owner of Fangyuan B&B, Fang Mingyu. I heard that when I was at home, I killed several pet cats and dogs in my neighbor's house, and I was sued. The family sent him to our place to avoid the limelight."
"I heard people say that those who like to torture and kill small animals are perverts, and will kill one day sooner or later. Moreover, on the day that Mrs. Zhao's body was found, earlier, Boss Fang was in a hurry Sent his nephew down the mountain. You said, if you don't have a ghost in your heart, why are you in a hurry to go?"
In the known information, there is another person named Fang Mingyu.
"What does Fang Mingyu look like?" Xie Liuyi asked.
"He looks very good-looking, tall and tall. Here, it's a little heavy, can you lift it, girl?" Fang Twist handed the two packed bags of twist to Xie Liuyi, seeing the other party very easily When he mentioned it, he let go and continued, "It's just sloppy, not walking properly at a young age, not cutting his hair at an old age, and a skull hanging around his neck, it's not a good thing at first glance."
Skull necklace... Xie Liuyi only saw it yesterday, on the spider man on the ropeway.
Thinking of Fang Mingyu's criminal record of abusing and killing small animals, Xie Liuyi suspected that he was the culprit who provoked the fierceness of the mandrills. However, adult mandrills are extremely powerful and can tear apart tigers and leopards with bare hands.
"The dogs you're talking about...are all big dogs?" Xie Liuyi considered the language and asked in words Fang Mahua could accept.
"There is a puppy." Fang Mahua's answer confirmed Xie Liuyi's conjecture, "She was born around the National Day last year, and Mrs. Zhao took goat milk to feed the big one, and she is lovable."
In an instant, as if a bolt of lightning flashed across my head, all the clues were connected.
There were two square tables next to each other, covered with a dirty quilt, and the middle of the quilt was slightly raised in the shape of a long strip.
"Sister Xie, you're finally back!" Zhou Haiyang almost bounced off his chair. Before Xie Liuyi could ask a question, he told everything like a bean in a bamboo tube.
" I came back with Brother Song to see that the old lady hadn't woken up yet. Brother Song was worried that something would happen, so he pried the door open. I told you that Brother Song is very good, and he would lock the door with a couple of strokes of iron wire. opened."
Song Ye interrupted Zhou Haiyang with a cough, and said a little embarrassedly, "I learned it from my friends in the public security system."
"Awesome." Zhou Haiyang boasted for no apparent reason, and then said, "I opened the door and saw the old lady lying on the bed, she lost her anger when she went to look, it scared me to death. Isn't Brother Song a forensic doctor? After the autopsy, he found that the old lady had been dead for at least a month! She was still moving last night, and I was talking to her. God, I don't even know what to say. "
He said, grabbed a corner of the quilt with two fingers, and opened some to show Xie Liuyi. Song Ye habitually cleaned the body after the autopsy, so the old lady looked very peaceful, as if she was asleep.
"Her internal organs have been corrupted, but she does not appear to be a giant. It means that she has been dead for more than a month and should have been boned." Song Ye added, "But her skin is very fresh. There's no blood, so there's not even a corpse spot on her body. Without an autopsy, it's hard to believe she's dead."
He took a deep breath, raised his head and rubbed his eyebrows, "This world is too unscientific."
"I have an idea," Chen Xiaofeng said weakly, "Will we be pulled into the survival game like the infinite flow novel?"
"Have you seen Infinite Stream? The player is pulled into the survival game, and if he dies in the game, he will die in reality, and he can leave after clearing the dungeon. Didn't the conductor say that yesterday? The sinner gets the king Forgiveness, you can leave here, this is the clue to customs clearance. And this inn,…”
He turned to Xie Liuyi, "Miss Xie, did you see something in the yard yesterday? Why didn't they come in and attack us yesterday? Because this is a safe house! The safe house set by the game for us !"
The more he spoke, the more certain he became. The others were silent and did not refute. Only Chen Meiyi asked, "If this is really a copy of the escape game, can we not go back?"
"Not necessarily, there are all kinds of settings in the Infinite Stream novel, some can go home after the dungeon is over, and the next dungeon will come in again. Some will never return to the real world, such as... "
?"
Xie Liuyi was a little surprised, but of course there was no expression on her face. Song Ye behaved politely, calmly and restrained from the very beginning. This was the first time he interrupted someone roughly.
"Twist." She raised her hand and gestured. There was no table in the yard except Song Ye's temporary dissection table, so Xie Liuyi entered the hall and put the twist on the empty table.
From 6 o'clock last night, everyone had not entered the grain of rice, and they were so hungry that their chests were pressed against their backs. When they heard the word Mahua, they began to saliva conditioned reflexively, and followed Xie Liuyi in with their eyes shining. .
"Sister Xie, you are amazing!" Zhou Haiyang rushed to the table, blowing rainbow farts while unpacking, not forgetting to complain, "This is too tight, how many layers are there? already."
Song Ye took two of them and sat at the table and started nibbling.
Just now Chen Xiaofeng said a lot of words to Xie Liuyi, but she remembered the word safe house. Previously, it was speculated that mandrills did not enter the village because of the restriction of the spirit of the banyan tree, so why is the safe house safe?
She looked around on the first floor, and even the counter was removed, there was no banyan tree root, and there was nothing strange.
"What are you looking for?" Song Ye asked.
"I don't know." Xie Liuyi moved the counter back to its original position, turned around to answer, but was suddenly stunned.
Standing in the direction of the counter and looking over, the whole room is dark, only the light from the gate. Outside the door lay the strange body of Mrs. Zhao, and Song Ye nibbled the twist in the darkness by the door.
"Where's the light?" she asked.
After Mrs. Zhao turned on the lights last night, six fluorescent lamps on the roof came on at the same time, and the entire inn hall was brightly lit. But why did Song Ye and the others not turn on the lights, but instead carried the body to the yard for autopsy?
"It can't be turned on." Song Ye swallowed the twist in his mouth, "It is estimated that the power is off. All the lights can't be turned on this morning."
Xie Liuyi suddenly remembered that the lights were on before they went to bed last night. When she went downstairs to boil the water in the morning, she found that the lights were off, thinking it was the old lady who turned them off. But if the old lady was already dead, who turned off the lights?
At this moment, the word safe house exploded in her mind.
There is no safe house, the inn is just a cover!
The mandrill didn't enter the inn last night, maybe because the lights were too bright, or some other restrictions. In this world, apart from the spirit of the banyan tree, the only thing that can restrict mandrills is that unknown existence—the survival game that Chen Xiaofeng said.
The game controls the conductor to lead them into the inn, resurrects the old lady, makes them relax their vigilance after seeing a living person, and uses the phenomenon of mandrills retreating to make them mistakenly believe that the inn is an absolutely safe place.
But in fact, since the lights went out this morning, this inn has probably lost its role as a shelter, and only the village is a safe area where mandrills cannot enter.
A thunder in the sky rang in her ears, interrupting Xie Liuyi's thoughts. She ran outside in three or two steps, and saw a large cloud of dark clouds gathered in the sky, pressing the city with black clouds that were about to be destroyed. The stance spreads here.
"Enter the village!" She looked back at Song Ye.
Song Ye put a mouthful of twist in his mouth and forgot to chew, "Why?"
"I don't have time to explain." She looked back at the approaching dark clouds, her voice heavy, "Advanced village!"
Fortunately, Song Ye didn't ask any more questions, swallowed the twist three steps and rushed upstairs with two steps. I don't know what he did, but soon, everyone went downstairs neatly.
"Why do you want to enter the village?" Although Chen Xiaofeng went downstairs, he was reluctant to leave the inn, "The inn is the safe house, we have food now, is it bad to stay in the inn? ?"
"Yes," a grizzled aunt leaned on Chen Meiyi weakly, and agreed, "Our old bones are useless and sick, how can we walk the mountain road?"
"Little girl, can we walk until we feel better? I just took the medicine, and I have no energy."
When sick, people are generally more willful, especially the older ones. Although they were persuaded by Song Ye to go downstairs, they were reluctant.
"Miss Xie," Song Ye was a little embarrassed, "Why don't you give me a reason, otherwise it will be difficult to convince the public."
It is difficult to convince the public.
These four words seemed to stab Xie Liuyi's inverse scale, and she suddenly became angry.
"The reason?" She asked in a cold voice, glanced at the approaching dark cloud, raised the hatchet she had been holding in her hand and slashed it **** the door of the inn. The door seemed to be hit hard. Boom - shattered into pieces.
Everyone was frightened by her sudden outburst, like a goose strangled by the neck, no one dared to make a sound.
She held a knife and put it close to her forearm, her voice was cold, and she said every word: "I said, enter the village."
