Abyss Game: I am covered with cheats

Xu Tong: Bu Hao! My neck!

The moment the Headless Ghost's knife landed on Xu Tong's shadow's neck, he felt an extremely strange power pinning him to the spot, making him unable to move.

"Hee hee hee——"

The laughter of the ghost echoed in the corridor. An umbilical cord shadow brought the Headless Ghost here, using a rusty kitchen knife to tear apart Xu Tong's shadow bit by bit.

Although he couldn't hear any sound, Xu Tong could see the Headless Ghost grabbing his shadow's head with one hand and using the kitchen knife to cut open his shadow's neck with the other.

The whole process took less than two seconds. Xu Tong's shadow's neck completely disappeared. The Headless Ghost's left hand held a faint black outline, which was Xu Tong's shadow's head.

When the kitchen knife was removed from his shadow, the power that had been applied to Xu Tong finally disappeared. He barely managed to seize the opportunity to breathe, turned around, and wanted to snatch his shadow's head back from the Headless Ghost's hand.

But it was too late. In the narrow entrance corridor, the ghost's laughter was like a child's successful prank.

With a 'pa da' sound, the umbilical cord shadow connecting the Headless Ghost disappeared in the blink of an eye. The entire building, along with the Headless Ghost and the ghost shadow, vanished without a trace.

"I curse your mother, you stole my head and ran away? Have you no shame!"

Xu Tong cursed at the empty corridor, then touched his neck.

The booklet said that after being attacked, one would enter a state of chronic death. Xu Tong didn't feel any particularly strong discomfort right now.

In other words, he still had a chance.

Either he had to complete the main and side quests before he died from the Headless Ghost's attack, or he had to get his shadow's head back in advance to avoid dying before completing the quests.

Stepping out of the entrance and onto the street, Xu Tong looked back. This time, it didn't turn back into his original residence, which was different from before.

"There aren't many packages left, I need to deliver them as soon as possible."

Xu Tong looked at the house number on the package and quickened his pace, walking quickly back in the direction he came from.

On the way, Xu Tong passed Qingcheng Pharmacy again. He hesitated for a moment and walked in.

Qingcheng Pharmacy was still as deserted as before, but just as Xu Tong walked in, he suddenly noticed something that hadn't been there before.

In the shadowy corner, an orange-yellow candlelight lit up.

No one was sitting there, but there was an extra medical record made of human skin, placed on the table.

Xu Tong walked forward and examined the human skin medical record.

[Your brain has activated the memories that were erased by the booklet in your hand, and has found information related to the ghost in front of you. Write your symptoms on the ghost medical record, and it will provide you with a certain degree of self-help methods. It will only tell the truth, but there is a possibility that it will not tell the whole truth. Please identify it yourself]

A cool feeling spread from Xu Tong's neck.

He reached out and touched his neck.

There was a wet feeling.

But it didn't feel like sweat.

Because this liquid felt a little sticky.

Xu Tong raised his eyebrows slightly, dipped his index finger and thumb in the liquid on his neck, then rubbed it and sniffed it lightly.

"This is... corpse oil?"

Xu Tong touched his neck, but there was no feeling at all, as if it didn't exist at all.

"Damn, I'm going to be refined." Xu Tong could even feel that his neck could no longer bear the weight of his head, and his vision was constantly sliding down.

Wasn't it supposed to be chronic death? Since when does chronic death mean not dying in five minutes, but dying in ten minutes?

Xu Tong had no other choice but to try anything, and picked up the pen next to him and wrote his symptoms on the human skin medical record.

"The patient's shadow's head was cut off, and is in a state of chronic death."

As soon as he wrote this line, Xu Tong lifted the tip of the pen, and the human skin medical record gave an answer almost immediately.

A line of extremely beautiful handwriting appeared on the human skin.

"Staple it on with a stapler, wrap it with bandages, and marinate it with star anise and peppercorns to ensure that the flesh will not rot and the soul will not fly away within three days."

Xu Tong: ?

He picked up the human skin medical record and looked at it left and right, only to realize that this thing was telling him to staple his own neck with a stapler.

Is this even human language?

Wrapping it with bandages is fine, but marinating it with star anise and peppercorns?

Aren't these things spices?

Is it so that after marinating, it can be eaten by ghosts?

If it weren't for the booklet saying that the human skin medical record wouldn't lie, Xu Tong would probably tear the human skin medical record apart right now.

However, the four things, stapler, bandages, star anise and peppercorns, are not easy to find in this copy. Xu Tong finally understood why this Qingcheng Pharmacy was opened here.

Coming to the counter, Xu Tong directly opened his mouth, "This time, I want a stapler, bandages, star anise and peppercorns."

Ka-da——

With a light sound, the ghost hand pushed out the cloth strip.

This time, Qingcheng Pharmacy wanted all the spirit money on him.

Xu Tong didn't dawdle, took out all the spirit money on his body at once, and slapped it on the transaction area.

As the ghost hand took these things into the darkness, the medicine outlet of Qingcheng Pharmacy spat out the things Xu Tong needed one by one.

"Hiss... hoo..." Xu Tong took a deep breath, never expecting that one day he would actually need to use a stapler to fix his head.

After being attacked by the Headless Ghost once, Xu Tong realized that saying someone has no brains is sometimes a blessing.

Ka-da——Ka-da——Ka-da——

Xu Tong directly used up all the staples in the stapler at once, fearing that he hadn't fixed his neck firmly, and then his head would fall directly on the ground while walking.

Because Xu Tong's neck had no feeling now, which was equivalent to having regional anesthesia, so even if he stapled his neck with a stapler, there was actually no big problem, anyway, Xu Tong didn't feel any "pain".

After putting star anise and peppercorns on his already softening neck, Xu Tong wrapped several circles of bandages around his neck until the bandages in his hand were used up, and then tore it from the end and tied a dead knot to fix his neck.

Putting aside other things, under the advice of the human skin medical record, Xu Tong's head didn't seem to have a tendency to continue falling down, at least it could prolong the time of his sudden death.

The booklet also mentioned that the human skin medical record would not lie, it would just hide part of the truth.

Then...

Xu Tong became a little curious.

For his symptom, what information did the human skin medical record hide?

Does it, in fact, have a way to directly help him?
