Infinite weird games
Chapter 109 Double Happiness Town (10) Ghost Talk
Li Yao calls herself a supernatural novelist, and her role in this dungeon is very clear, which is to provide players with supernatural knowledge.
But what if she lied?
She naturally has an information advantage, which is unfair to other players; that's why the mobile phone exists as another source of knowledge.
But in this way, her existence seems superfluous...
Qisi's expression did not change: "By the way, Li Yao, when was your last dungeon? I think many people wait until the seven-day countdown ends and are forced to continue matching dungeons."
Li Yao blinked in confusion and was about to answer, but was interrupted by a warm greeting.
"Hey! Why did you get up so early? After such a long journey, you didn't even take a break on the first day!" Mrs. Xu walked out from the right side of the house door with broken steps.
Qisi looked at her waist and saw no bell.
She seemed to only wear the soul-calling bell that could connect yin and yang after dusk, and she didn't know what she was avoiding.
Qisi asked: "Sister-in-law Xu, where is the bell on your waist? Did it fall somewhere, or is it because you don't want to wear it for some reason?"
Sister-in-law Xu slapped her thigh and said "Ouch": "Old lady, I have a bad memory. It's a good thing you reminded me, otherwise I wouldn't have known about it."
This was false at first sight. Chiss pretended to be concerned and said, "That's your family heirloom. It's of great significance. You don't have to worry about us. If you have any questions, it's not too late to find the bell first."
Mrs. Xu's smile did not change: "Family heirlooms are important, but they are not as important as your distinguished guests. I'm here to take you to a banquet!"
Have a meal? Qisi raised his eyebrows slightly: "Did anyone die last night?"
"Hey, it's not good to talk about life or death. It's unlucky." Mrs. Xu's smile softened a little, "We organized a red event for Xi'er, chicken, duck, beef and mutton, green, yellow, red and white wine, and placed them from the streets to the alleys. At the end of the day, the whole town is here to have a feast!”
"Old lady, I'll take you away first. I'll bring someone to dress Xi'er up later. When the ceremony and other things have arrived, I'll send her to a sedan chair with all the bells and whistles and let her get married in a glorious way."
This was said politely, but it was intended to separate the player from Xi'er.
Qisi lowered his eyes and asked gently: "I haven't seen a Chinese wedding yet. Can you stay and see what the process is like?"
Although Li Yao didn't understand what he meant, he also helped: "Yes, we folklore investigators have grown up in the city and have never seen many things. We finally had a chance to take a look, and we were all curious..."
"No." Mrs. Xu's tone became stiff, "According to what we say here, Xi'er will be a concubine in the future. No matter how you are our honored guests, you will still be outsiders. When the time comes, Miss Xi'er will start to cause trouble. If you bump into a few people, it won’t look good.”
She said "crash", but her eyes were as cold as looking at a dead person. Replacing the content of her words with "let several people die unexpectedly" would not seem inconsistent.
Qisi knew that he could not ask any more questions, so he pursed his lips and stood aside, indicating that the matter was none of his business. Li Yao naturally said no more.
Seeing that the two of them stopped talking knowingly, Mrs. Xu's expression gradually returned to calm, as if the viciousness just now was just the player's illusion.
Swinging her two inverted tapered legs, she nimbly crossed the threshold and went deeper into the house, probably to call other players.
Listening to her footsteps walking away, Qisi smiled coldly: "After we leave, the people in the town will probably do something to Xi'er, and those things are shameful, so we need to be avoided."
It is known that the town's source of happiness comes from the resentment of a girl who died on her wedding day. If you want to get more blessings, the heavier the resentment, the better. In other words, that girl had better die miserably and endure inhuman torture before her death.
"But Mrs. Xu said that after she sends us to the table, she will bring someone back. Then we will have plenty of opportunities to leave the table quietly and come over to take a look..."
Qisi didn't finish his words, but Li Yao agreed without hesitation: "I'll try to see if I can come back secretly. I have a skill in the stealth field..."
The sound of footsteps sounded again behind her, cutting off her subsequent words.
Sister-in-law Xu led the three players out of the door and greeted them with a smile: "Follow me, I'll take some of you to a banquet."
She staggered ahead as she did on the first day, walking slowly around the water town with white walls and black tiles. Players followed suit.
I don’t know how Shuangxi Town is laid out. When they came to the house, everyone came from the left road. When they went to eat, they took the right road. They clearly didn’t go back. After going around in circles for a long time, they actually passed by the house on the first day. Passing by the Temple of Joy.
Behind the vermilion temple door, the statue of the god in red dress seemed to take a small step forward, closer to the door than yesterday, as if he was about to step down from the shrine. You still can't see the whole face, but you can see the pale and soft jaw and bright red lips.
A man and a woman kneeling under the statue also turned slightly to face the door, their heads twisted in a strange posture, staring at the players passing by.
The smoke from burning paper diffused faintly, and the thin smoke inside could be seen through the crack of the half-closed door, giving the already dark interior a layer of decayed atmosphere.
"Someone is burning paper inside? Does this God of Joy care about funerals?" Du Xiaoyu muttered softly.
Sister-in-law Xu said with a smile: "After we finish the meal, let's come to the Temple of Happiness to worship. The Goddess of Happiness not only blesses happy events and blesses the newlyweds; anyone who wants to seek blessings or avoid disasters can do so by worshiping her. Seek good luck, avoid bad luck, and gain happiness.”
Qisi caught the key word "Fuyuan" and raised his eyebrows slightly.
Weird games will not place the key to deciphering the worldview on a single clue, otherwise hiding a clue can wipe out all other players. Such a design would test luck too much, and be too simple and crude.
Obviously there are still some clues in the Temple of Happiness. Even if players do not see the relevant pictures and text on their mobile phones, as long as they dare to explore the Temple of Happiness, they can restore the world view of the copy.
Qisi spoke at the right time: "Sister-in-law Xu, I have been wanting to ask you since I entered your town. Double Happiness is the collective name for red events and white events. In addition to the God of Joy, is there a God in charge of funerals in your town?"
The players all pricked up their ears, waiting for Mrs. Xu's answer. After all, if there is a god of joy, there should be a god of mourning. This speculation is completely in line with their common sense.
Sister-in-law Xu smiled: "There is only one god in our town, the God of Joy, so we will worship the God of Joy. She was born as a person in our town and died as a god in our town. We will not worship her." For whom?”
Qisi pretended to hesitate: "Does the Goddess of Joy care about everything? She also cares about life, death and wealth?"
"Of course, our Goddess of Joy is in charge of everything, even the hauntings," Mrs. Xu said.
It's really a bit of fun to say that ghosts are haunted. Du Xiaoyu smiled "hehe": "Is your town still haunted? What's the method for haunting?"
Mrs. Xu answered patiently: "There have been several ghosts in our town, and everyone has had nightmares. We went to the empress's temple to burn paper and pray for her blessing, and the ghosts were suppressed in the well."
well.
In the story "Zhiguai", Zhang Sheng "one day lost his footing and fell into a well, and saw the corpses lying there, feeling melancholy".
In the clue of "Man in the Well", the bottom of the well is filled with corpses that condensed resentments and accumulated blessings.
Sister-in-law Xu said that the Goddess of Joy died by throwing herself into a well.
Li Yao asked: "What kind of sneakiness is it exactly? And why do you have to go to the well? Is it to go to the well where the body of the Goddess of Joy is?"
Mrs. Xu was a little unhappy: "Sneaky is sneaky, and we don't have yin and yang eyes, so how do we know what kind of sneaky it is? If you go to the well, you will go to the well. How can there be so many reasons?"
Seeing that Mrs. Xu was angry, the players who had prepared a basket of questions could only silence themselves and follow quietly.
After walking for a while, Mrs. Xu pointed forward in the distance: "We're there, right there."
Most of the fog on both sides of the road dissipated unconsciously. Looking up, you can see a dense crowd of people wearing various clothes in the distance, walking back and forth, squeezing each other, some carrying plates, some holding bowls and chopsticks. .
The venue was decorated quite festively, with red crumbs scattered all over the ground. Huge mahogany round tables were arranged one after another and placed in invisible corners. There were as many as twenty as far as the eye could see.
The sight touched the hearing, and the bustling crowds became one, which was really lively and lively. There were also a few dog barks, and Zeiss caught a glimpse of a tall black dog holding a bone in its mouth and walking happily on the red carpet.
Qisi heard Jin Yusheng talk about some supernatural knowledge and knew that black dogs are innate and yang creatures, and logically speaking, it is impossible to appear in a town full of ghosts.
Is the town really "full of ghosts" as Xu Wen said?
When two men saw the guests arriving, they came over one after another and greeted Mrs. Xu: "Mother Xu, it is thanks to you that our town is what it is today. You can just rest and take care of things here and there." Let everyone do the work."
Both of them have dark farmer faces, with wrinkles at the corners of their eyes. Their appearance is unattractive, but their smiles are quite cheerful.
They respected Mrs. Xu very much. It wasn't until the woman waved her hands and left that they looked at the player with a reserved expression: "Guys, you can sit down, eat, and watch as you like. If you need anything, just call us!"
The players looked at each other and saw the calculation in each other's eyes. It is impossible to sit down and just eat. The main purpose of this trip is to look around, and it is best to find some important clues.
Liu Bingding smiled at the two men: "Don't be so nervous, you two. We don't know much about customs and particularities, so we still need you to tell us."
Shang Qingbei was silent all the way. Seeing that Liu Bingding was about to start talking nonsense using adult social sayings, he quickly interrupted: "Do you know where the groom is?"
Ever since he received the side mission of "ruining Xi'er's happy event", he had been thinking about how to complete it.
It is definitely unrealistic to take Xi'er to escape. He is a fool and his words don't make sense. Could it be possible that he would knock people out and hide them?
This happy event is said to be a sacrifice, but after all, it has the title of "happy event", so it should have a groom.
Shang Qingbei believes that any task in the weird game has a solution. Xi'er couldn't find a breakthrough, so she came to the groom to look for it.
"Little brother, do you have anything to do with the groom?" the man asked suspiciously.
"I..." Shang Qingbei was momentarily stuck.
He was about to make up an explanation, but before he could say a few words, the electronic sound of "Side Mission Completed" sounded coldly.
Looking at the text on the system interface, Shang Qingbei blinked twice in confusion.
What's happening here?
He hasn't done anything yet, how can the side mission be completed?
[Because your participation is too low, the performance points provided by this task are automatically transferred to the player with the highest participation]
A new prompt text was refreshed. After understanding its meaning, Shang Qingbei's eyes widened, messy in the wind.
The speed of life and death.
