Returning from the abyss

Article 31 Wuling

18 people.

Without any communication at all, the number of survivors alone is convincing enough.Previously, even the group of nine people in Tumen's group was at least within the estimated survival value that Chuiying said, but now the 18 people...

Lu Ning really couldn't help but want to ask, how did they survive?

No matter how much room there is for maneuvering, eighteen places... This simply cannot be squeezed out, right?There are 21 ghosts killed for seven days alone!

Not only were the people in the car shocked by this number, even Chuying seemed a little unexpected.

"Everyone, this is the carriage to welcome you back to the distribution center. It can relieve your fatigue and relax your body and mind..."

"Don't talk about the scene, can we get treatment?"

Among them, the person in the front was a delicate-looking girl with long hair in a dark blue hooded tracksuit.Her expression was indifferent, and she couldn't see any emotion from her eyes or actions, and the words she asked were flat, without any ups and downs at all.

"After everyone gets in the car, all the pain can be relieved."

"Including people resurrected by the blood of the divine bird, won't they die again?"

Lu Ning was startled, and her whole body lay on the window.

"Of course not. You were alive when you picked it up, so it's impossible to die. Miss, you really found a very useful piece of information!"

Chuying's words made Lu Ning feel like something exploded in her mind.

Outside, there was laughter and joy.

"Great, it's exactly what Miss Cheng said!"

"That way we don't have to worry about it!"

"Hahaha, it seems that ghosts have nothing to be afraid of."

However, after this Ms. Cheng said plainly "get in the car", no one talked nonsense, they quickly lined up and squeezed into the car.

The compartment immediately seemed much more crowded. In fact, there were still more vacancies. However, the newcomers looked relaxed, chatting and taking out drinks from the refrigerator, as if they had really come out. General travel.

——A group of movie stars.

Lu Ning swears in her heart that the memory will be handed back after getting in the car. So far, even the five men who seem to be the most ignorant have not shown any expression about the fact that they are dead, and they can come out alive. None of them are based on luck alone.

Ms. Cheng, who got on the bus last, still didn't show any emotion, but if she said it was three nothings, she felt something was wrong.After she randomly found a seat and sat down, she took out her mobile phone and looked through it. Obviously, she quickly found the personal terminal app. Since she was sitting relatively close to Lu Ning, Lu Ning could even slightly recognize her after opening the account. numbers.

four digits.

"What? Interested?"

The gaze was noticed, and Miss Cheng raised her head.Although her tone was flat, she was unexpectedly not indifferent, and extended a hand on her own initiative.

"Cheng Wuling, let's get to know each other."

"My name is Lu Ning."

Lu Ning got up to shake hands with her, and at the same time saw the amount on the phone in her hand.

[Account Amount: 4800 (View Details)]

"curious?"

Cheng Wuling didn't cover her, but Lu Ning just nodded and took out her mobile phone: "I'm 3100, I don't know how other people are..."

"Well, I'm curious too. Li Rong, Xue Tao, you two come here."

He ordered in a low voice, but immediately let the two young people who were chatting at the bar come over.

"Turn on the phone, find the app with the crow pattern, and let me see your account."

"okay!"

Facing Cheng Wuling's commanding tone, the two young men turned on their phones immediately without any hesitation.

Soon, the accounts of the two were displayed.

Li Rong's account is 1200, and Xue Tao's is 700.

"Why do you have more than me!"

Xue Tao was surprised, and Li Rong was not particularly clear about it, but it's not a bad thing to have too many things... right?

"Li Rong does more things, which are evaluated based on our seven-day performance." Cheng Wuling saw the puzzled expressions of the two, and said, "Although I don't know what the specific evaluation rules are, but the one who does more is the one who gets the most." It's a certainty...Xue Tao, you don't have to be depressed, if there are no accidents, the people who did nothing but survived may only have about [-] points."

"But there are very few such people, right?"

"That's right, although we are all under your command, and we have done a lot of things, otherwise there would not be so much... money, if you really want to calculate it this way, whoever survived did not do anything Come?"

The two young people are very active, and their estimation of the score is not particularly optimistic.

"I'm not saying this time..."

Cheng Wuling flipped through the various information in the personal terminal while explaining to the two people.

"After this time, we have both experience and basic funds. In the next test, it is very likely that someone will use a more negative attitude to ensure survival, but..."

"It's not that easy."

Tu Men and the twins walked over at some point, and took up Cheng Wuling's words.

Tumen grinned: "My name is Tumen. Nine of us survived. I already feel that this is not easy. Seeing so many of you... I'm really curious. Please forgive me if it makes you feel unhappy."

The twin sister also smiled and nodded to several people: "My name is Mo Xiren, this is my sister Mo Lianren, we survived together."

Cheng Wuling stood up and shook hands with the three of them one by one, and introduced herself: "Cheng Wuling—you probably haven't heard of my name."

"Oh? Miss Cheng is implying that we are not actually from the same world?" Mo Xiren said with a chuckle.

"Indeed."

Tu Men's eyes lit up: "Then it is possible that we are people from different worlds?"

"Judging from our common language, even if we did, the gap wouldn't be too big." Lu Ning also joined the conversation.

"This lady..." Mo Xiren looked at Lu Ning, "It seems that she got to the car before us."

"Yes, I am the only survivor, so I am also curious how you did it."

Tu Men laughed, and was about to speak, but was cut off by Mo Xiren: "We just feel that everything is suspicious, so we don't believe in those things at all, and after a ghost appears, we try to escape, and after seven days, people will die It’s almost the end of the day, it’s just a lucky escape.”

"You didn't look for the collection?" Xue Tao spoke quickly and asked immediately.

"Collection?"

Mo Xiren was taken aback for a moment, and Tu Men also showed a puzzled look.

"If you didn't look for those collections at all, you wouldn't be possessed by the double ghost in Mensar's manuscript." Cheng Wuling looked at Lu Ning, "Lu Ning, you probably found the manuscript at the very beginning, which caused the double ghost to hide. The ghost has been released, if the killing cannot be stopped in the first two days, a more serious disaster will follow."

"Indeed..." Lu Ning nodded.

"But, that's already the limit, right? It's pure luck that we survived. Eighteen of you... how could you do it?" Mo Xiren showed a curious look that was just right.

Li Rong scratched his head: "We also listened to Ms. Cheng, she did what she asked us to do, and survived...you have to ask her."

"There was no difficulty. We found most of the collection in the first three hours, including the Mensar manuscript. There was no way to stop the ghost killing on the first day, and I didn't stop it."

"Yes, we completely dispersed our actions - I wonder why it is so dangerous..." Xue Tao also had lingering fears when he recalled it.

"It's wrong to be afraid. There are only two situations for ghosts on the first day. They can either kill people quickly to create terror, or kill people cautiously for the sake of quota. No matter which direction is beneficial to us humans. The whole first day is except for those who are unlucky and killed. Except for the three of us, all are safe times, and this is also the best time for us to gain an advantage." Cheng Wuling explained to Xue Tao, and then continued, "Everyone returns to the hall at noon and searches each other. At that time Two people have been killed, the invisible ghost and the person who found the manuscript, but it doesn't matter, everyone has to take out the things they find, and then I will check them one by one with the letter in the bottle..."

"Wait, how do you know ghosts can pretend to be humans?"

"I don't know, I'm just in case there is a ghost among us in the first place." Cheng Wuling glanced at Lu Ning, "The double ghost has too many weaknesses, so it didn't survive the first day .”

Lu Ning could not refute.

Except for the ability to touch and kill with one hand, the stand-in ghost is almost no different from an ordinary person. After occupying Gongsun You's body, it also becomes physically weak, otherwise Lu Ning would not be able to succeed so easily.

But finding out the double ghost and sealing it with a dagger on the first day is easy to say, but it must be very difficult to do.

This not only avoided a third of the crisis in the next few days, but also helped Cheng Wuling establish enough prestige.

"The next day, we seized the opportunity of the invisible ghost to kill people, and carried out the exile ritual—"

"No, wait. Banishment ritual?"

"Mensar's manuscript, although that thing is deceiving, the ceremony on it is true, have you tried it?" Cheng Wuling asked.

"There is not enough blood sacrifice." Isn't this problem the biggest resistance to the implementation of the banishment ceremony?
"...the blood of the divine bird."

Cheng Wuling pointed it out: "The blood sacrifice requires people, but it doesn't require human blood. The activity of the blood of the bird, let alone 30 people, can be deducted."

If you want to describe Lu Ning's feelings now, it is probably the mood when you finish the exam and discuss the answers with the top students.

Everything seems to be taken for granted by Cheng Wuling, finding the message in the bottle, testing out the double ghost, discovering the location of the laboratory... The most aggrieved thing is that he has done all these things himself.

The results were quite different.

"The threat of the invisible ghost was lifted on the second day, and we could feel more at ease. Although the murderous crime of the mirror ghost was a bit hard to guard against, after the fourth message told us its killing limit, it failed in those two days. Killed successfully."

A ghost really can't turn over any storms.

"On the fifth night, we moved some necessities to the shed, and then took advantage of the darkness to tear down the main house and set fire to it. After the main house was destroyed, the strange dryness in the other houses disappeared. .In the last two days, although a few people died due to the appearance of new ghosts, it was no problem for us to survive with the props in our hands. After performing the ceremony, the blood of the bird did not consume much, so I tried my luck to resurrect a person before dawn, see Let's see if he will die if he is treated in time... that's about it."

Not to mention people like Lu Ning and Tumen, even Li Rong and Xue Tao who survived together didn't know that there was such a consideration in it.
