The portrait returned to normal, no weird smile, no longer looking at everyone.
Li Mo's empty eyes in the portrait seemed to be staring at the door of the auditorium, trying to glimpse something in the boundless darkness.
The only thing visible to the naked eye was the black-red blood on it, indicating that something unfathomable had indeed happened just now.
A foul smell finally appeared around the black blood, like a corpse that had been rotting for three years in a dirty ditch, mixed with the smell of dead rat hair and carrion.
Shigure Kirara suppressed a bitter look on her face, frowned, and said unbearably: "Well... it smells so bad! Is it the stench from the blood just now?"
"vomit……!"
"Are you okay? Cover your nose first!"
The smell of black blood was even more nauseating than the scent of the human-headed ghost before.
It only lasted for half a minute, and half of the people couldn't help but spit out stomach acid and undigested food residue in their intestines.
"Why does it stink so much? I can't stand it anymore." A Valkyrie activated the air purification function of her armor, which made the air in the auditorium slightly breathable.
Only Li Mo stood motionless in front of the memorial tablet, completely unaffected.
He thought for a moment and finally knelt down and touched the black blood with his index finger.
Relying on the suppressive effect of the tomb incense, Li Mo acted even bolder.
"Direct contact with black blood does not trigger the laws of ghosts. This blood is not the ability of ghosts, it is just a derivative, and does not have the ability to sense the same thing as ghosts."
Li Mo put his index finger into his mouth.
He has not lost human consciousness, but is more able to tolerate harsh environments. No matter how bad the smell is, or how bitter the food is, he will not show any expression because he cannot express it.
"The smell is no different from the smelly corpse meat."
"So before I came here, many people had died. The time of death was probably more than half a year, no... not necessarily, but certainly not less than three months, otherwise the smell would not be so strong."
Li Mo analyzed quickly, stood up and looked towards the door of the auditorium behind him, his eyes deep.
There was vague darkness outside. If you didn't walk to the door, you wouldn't be able to see what was going on outside. There was only vast darkness, swallowing everything silently.
"It's a shame you were able to eat that stuff... Aren't you afraid that someone might be watching you?" The corner of Shigure Qiluo's mouth twitched, and her expression on Li Mo became even weirder.
She couldn't imagine how anyone could bear to eat something so disgusting.
Li Mo disagreed with this. If he had not died, he might have allowed others to taste it due to psychological effects, but the results would definitely not be as accurate as his own.
Li Mo, a living person, is a normal happy person after all.
But he was dead, twice.
Weirdness revived in his body, and there was even a vague urge to burst out of his body.
In order to get more accurate data, he would personally get involved, and the current state could not be maintained for much longer.
After solving this weird problem, you have to return immediately to clear the accumulation of death.
"There have been ghosts targeting me for a long time, not least this one. As long as they don't meet their killing rules, they can't kill me even if they target me." Li Mo said lightly.
In an understatement, I will briefly describe the terrifying incident of being targeted by a ghost.
Although Li Mo didn't know what the real rules were.
Experience is sometimes unreliable, make bold guesses and verify carefully.
"You are really..." Shigure Kirara was about to complain.
Suddenly, the fire went out completely, and the entire auditorium fell into darkness.
But it soon recovered, and the faint firelight lit up again, dispelling the darkness in the auditorium.
Li Mo took a look at his portrait, but there was no change.
The black blood on the ground did not move at all like before.
The ground is still stable, and the human-headed ghost outside is still in a state of silence.
Chapter 18 Whose funeral?
Li Mo walked to the black coffin, "The first grave incense burned out, and the second grave incense began to burn... This means that the next day has begun, and I will tell you the rules of the night vigil."
"It can also be called a wake. The name is not important, and the source is meaningless. I will only talk about the key rules."
"I can't guarantee that all the rules in it will be complied with. What I said is just a reference answer at best, but it must make sense for these answers to be passed down. You just need to fulfill them honestly."
Most of the answers are very restrained, which exactly corresponds to the cautious approach in dealing with weirdness.
No one knew what rules they violated with their random actions, and then died suddenly on the spot.
Li Mo reached out and touched the black coffin. Even though there was a burning flame behind him, the black coffin always maintained an extremely low temperature.
However, this also means that the black coffin is suppressing the evil spirits normally. If warm or even scalding blood flows out of the four corners, it is a symbol of danger. It means that the black coffin cannot suppress the weirdness inside and is gradually being eaten away.
Li Mo said seriously to everyone: "First, from now on until seven o'clock tomorrow morning, no one is allowed to leave the area illuminated by the fire. Even you, Shigure Kirara, no matter what happens , are not allowed to get closer to the entrance of the auditorium. This is not a discussion, but an order."
"Second, it is forbidden to touch the black coffin, unless the third and final situation occurs."
"Third, if the body in the coffin emits a peculiar smell, deal with it immediately. Do not use vulgar words. Otherwise, no matter how you handle it, the smell will not only not reduce, but will intensify. You should know what this means."
"Fourth, any ambiguous, lewd/promiscuous behavior between men and women is not allowed to occur in the mourning hall, that is, the auditorium."
Li Mo spoke very slowly. Compared with slandering and moving forward without knowing anything, if you follow these inherited rules step by step, you will have a greater chance of surviving.
If you don't know anything about it, you will almost die if you are in danger; if you act according to the rules, you can not only understand the strange logic and rules of behavior, but you will also have a chance to correct if you make a mistake.
"But senior, aren't you the only man here?" A Valkyrie raised her hand high and asked her soul.
"Pfft..." Shigure Kirara couldn't help laughing.
They had been dealing with ghosts before, and it was only at this time that everyone realized that among the more than 20 people, there was only one male, Li Mo.
"Lesbians are not allowed either." Li Mo said coldly.
"Hey~" Many Valkyries and St. Freya's students stuck out their pink tongues.
Li Mo was not surprised by this. The physical fitness of women who were destined to become Valkyries and those who had already become Valkyries after the world collapsed was beyond what ordinary men could bear.
Coupled with the setting that once Honkai appears, women may have a chance to survive, but almost all men will die, resulting in a world of yin and yang in the Honkai world.
Naturally, the Valkyrie attracted the attention of Wo Biancao, and Wobiancao was not a fuel-efficient lamp.
As long as one is willing to fight and the other is willing to endure.
Li Mo cleared the foreign object in his throat. A liquid similar to ink wanted to gush out from his stomach, but it was forced down.
That's the price you pay for dying twice, and it only becomes more apparent as time goes on.
He can still smell the stench on his skin, a subtle corpse odor. Even if his heart is still beating, blood is flowing in his blood vessels, and all his organs are working normally... he can't stop this unreasonable distortion.
"Fifth, ignore all sounds, phenomena, and people in the darkness."
"Sixth, the sixth point must be observed within five days. The current layout of the auditorium is not allowed to be broken, and nothing is allowed."
"We are using the second grave incense to get through the first day, so tonight there is a possibility of death on the second day, so we need to hold the funeral ceremonies on the first day and the second day at the same time. Of course, I There is no guarantee. If it doesn’t happen, it’s best to respond normally if it does.”
"Since the owner of this funeral left clues and life-saving props, he should have thought of this possibility. If it was a certain death situation, he would not have spent so much thought..."
Having said this, Li Mo looked towards the door of the auditorium. It was dark there, but one thing was certain: there was no door.
The absence of a door means that the law that opening the door will lead to death will not be triggered, and even ordinary people can enter the auditorium to take refuge.
Judging from current experience, there are patterns of evil ghosts on the door, which means that the door is no longer a protective wall for people, but a medium for evil ghosts to kill people, a wedge that revives the strange.
It's a simple truth: if there are no ghosts in the door, it will divide the enclosed space into two parts. The place where the living people are is the Yang world, and the evil ghosts cannot easily step in; the evil ghosts are cold and belong to the underworld, and the two are mutually exclusive.
But if there is a problem with the door, this rule will naturally be broken and the ability to divide the space will be lost.
The door of the auditorium showed traces of human destruction, and the various decorations in the auditorium made Li Mo even more convinced that the owner of the funeral must not be an ordinary person.
The ability to block weird perceptions is a waste of money in a place like this. If you had this ability, how many weird things could you solve?
There is also this strange tomb incense that suppresses the evil, and the black coffin that suppresses the evil...
As well as the weird spiritual position, the spiritual position may not be a ghost, the unknown ghost is more like being forcibly locked in the spiritual position. Maybe the ghost in the spiritual position is very terrifying. Once it appears, it will inevitably bring about an irresistible supernatural killing phenomenon. .
After all, the stench of black blood from before spread to fill the auditorium despite being suppressed by the incense of the tomb, and one could vaguely sense how ferocious the ghost inside was.
It can be said that all the details of the funeral are prepared to keep the living alive.
If you don't understand this, then such a waste is probably not qualified to conduct funeral arrangements for the owner of the funeral.
So Li Mo immediately concluded that the fifth point was correct. After all, if there was a knock on the door outside the auditorium, he could directly determine that the person knocking on the door was not a human but a ghost.
There is another situation where the knock is also on the door, but it is a ghost door.
When the doors of living people have been violently torn down, how can there be any normal knocking on the door?
"Finally, and the worst plan, if there is an irreversible situation... throw out the headless man's body in the coffin, and let as many people as possible squeeze into the black coffin to hide. How many people can survive? There are several." Li Mo was not prepared to tell them this.
But thinking that it couldn't be solved even after restarting, I had to find a way to escape.
By then, I am afraid that all of them, new people involved in supernatural events, will be buried here.
So Li Mo came up with the last insurance policy.
This method is very evil. The coffin is neither big nor small, but there are more than 20 of them. I am afraid that they will kill each other in order to enter the black coffin, and the fight will be bloody. That is what Li Mo does not want to see.
Shigure Kirara asked doubtfully: "Oh, but this goes against the second rule you mentioned. Aren't we not allowed to touch the black coffin?"
Li Mo nodded and replied in a low voice: "So that was the last resort. The black coffin has now been activated and has strong suppression capabilities."
"But I'm afraid I won't be able to get out if I go in. It's okay if there are people outside to help open the coffin lid. If no one helps, I'll just wait to die."
"It's better to starve to death than to be eaten by ghosts. At least it won't cause trouble to those who come after you."
Li Mo opened the coffin lid and revealed the headless body of a man inside.
For some reason, he always had the urge to lie down in place of the headless man's corpse.
Chapter 19 The outline of the ghost
"Why did you open the coffin? It was already touched..." Kirara Shigure muttered.
"Open it so that you can observe the body. Any abnormalities can be dealt with in time. As for me touching the black coffin... I actually don't know. It's just intuition. My intuition tells me that it doesn't matter if I touch it myself." Li Mo's tone remained calm. It hasn't changed since hours ago, no emotion at all.
"Intuition? It's so rare. I thought you always talked about evidence. This is the first time I heard you proactively admit that your behavior was completely intuitive." Shigure Kirara opened his mouth wide, a little surprised.
Li Mo looked at the body in the black coffin and paused: "I don't know the reason. If I have to give a reason, it would be that the headless male corpse in the black coffin has the same body as mine."
He didn't say any more. This reason was too lame, but Li Mo really had a strange feeling in his heart.
Is it me who is buried in this funeral?
So now I’m holding my own funeral?
"By the way, let me tell you some bad news." Li Mo suddenly turned his head and said just one sentence, which made everyone's spirits explode.
"Could it be that the ghost is going to start killing people! No...!" The spirited girl held her head and cried.
"Isn't the second grave incense going to be extinguished? This can't be done. Why are we so unlucky? Every time I draw a card, I have to guarantee my bottom line. I am always intercepted when performing tasks. You can't even bully me!?" The resentful woman The God of War was angry and resentful.
"You, you, you... just say it quickly, I'm not afraid..." the timid girl said in a slurred and hesitant manner.
"Gloomy man, stop pretending and tell me quickly. I'm worried to death. Don't waste time. What if the bad news comes true soon? You must die knowingly!" Shigure Kirara urged anxiously.
Everyone's reaction made Li Mo feel very good.
Because the more energetic they are, the less bad the news will be.
"I have too many things to think about and I just thought of other places. But that's not important. The important thing is that the bad news is not too bad." Li Mo said slowly, "Tonight and tomorrow night, we can't sleep. This is the custom of keeping vigil, because we are not sure which day is today or tomorrow, so to be on the safe side, we don’t sleep for two nights.”
"..."
"..."
"It's okay, it's okay, it scared me to death." Shigure Kirara breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that there was another abnormality.
Staying up for a night or two is not difficult for an S-class Valkyrie. If she is sleepy, she can use Honkai Energy to stimulate herself and force herself to stay awake.
However, the other Valkyries cannot do what Kira Shigure can do. Like the students, they can only stay up for one night at most.
"Seeing that you are in good spirits now, this is not too bad news. As long as you wait until seven in the morning, you can go to bed. At that time, I will collect enough supplies with those who can still stay awake..." Li Mo glanced at it.
There were seventeen students, seven Valkyrie including Shigure Kirara, and in the end there were 25 of them including himself.
The canteen has a door and you will die if you enter it, so it cannot be your first choice.
