absurd deduction game

Chapter 330 The Missing Doll

A labyrinth is a labyrinth. With the gatekeeper chasing them, Yu Xing and Carlos couldn't try each route, they could only choose randomly.

The gatekeepers were able to keep up because they made too much noise.

But Yu Xing is not worried about not being able to find the way, because he has memorized all the paths he has traveled. If he reaches a dead end, he will turn back the same way—even if the gatekeeper is behind him, he is not false, he has seen it with his own eyes. After the gatekeeper, he had a clearer assessment of the strength of the gatekeeper.

It's okay to have a face-to-face meeting.

The distribution of Ye Mingzhu in the corridor is much more scattered, it seems that the interior of the corridor is relatively dark, and there is no one around. Yu Xing jumped up, kicked the wall, and skimmed a corner with the help of reaction force, at an extremely fast speed.

Carlos quickly followed up. The magician's physical fitness was unexpectedly strong, and the jacket made the sound of hunting as he ran wildly, as if a bunch of colored blocks were dancing wildly.

Even though the surroundings were getting colder and colder, white mist was produced between their breaths, but under the strenuous exercise, their bodies gradually heated up.

"San, don't you think this place is too big?"

What is the concept of building a labyrinth underground? How much manpower and material resources will it require?
"Of course it's too big." Yu Xing panted. His physical fitness is only at a normal level now, and he probably won't be able to run after a while. It must all be true."

Carlos just had nothing to say: "Hey, you—"

Before the words were finished, the gatekeeper roared, and the sound pierced into the minds of the two of them, making them feel as if their brains had been hammered, buzzing.

Both of them staggered. Yu Xing rushed too fast and didn't stop the car. He accidentally bumped into the wall in front of him, causing his arms to hurt.

He was forced to stop, Carlos glanced at him, stopped, and pulled him: "Don't stop!"

"Don't worry." Yu Xingyou stood up straight and looked at the approaching gatekeeper.

The gatekeeper's robe sleeves were in the way, his withered hands raised, his toothless mouth parted in a disgusting and creepy smile.

It seems to know that there are two living people who are no longer able to move, which means it can get back its ghost mark!

Yu Xing glanced at the time distractedly, and there were still five and a half minutes before the 10-minute countdown.

The chain on the janitor's wrist hit him like a meteor hammer. He squinted his eyes, turned his head to avoid it, and fumbled in his bag.

"Carlos, do me a favor."

Yu Xing got what he wanted, and rolled away from the gatekeeper's chain: "Hold it for 30 seconds for me."

Carlos knew at a glance that he had come up with a solution, and immediately responded: "Okay, it's only 30 seconds, if it's too long, I'll run first."

Yu Xing ignored him. After withdrawing his seat, he turned his wrist to reveal the things in his hand.

A dirty incense burner.

Yu Xing didn't notice how Carlos procrastinated over there. He just shook the incense burner, took out three incense sticks, opened the lid, and inserted the incense into the messy incense ash.

As soon as the incense was inserted, it ignited without fire. Yu Xing half knelt on the ground, put the incense burner in a stable position, and smelled the burning incense.

This is one of the two props that he can use on his body. Its function is... to appease the sneaking corpse.

He maintained a half-kneeling posture, and moved the incense burner to the position between him and the gatekeeper, so that he seemed to be worshiping the gatekeeper.

After finishing these, 30 seconds have come, Carlos blocked the chain with a dagger, without looking back: "Are you ready!?"

"Okay, get out of the way." Yu Xing said.

Carlos withdrew quickly, leaving only the janitor standing there.

The strange thing is that the gatekeeper is no longer as excited as before, as if it has really received some kind of sacrifice, the hideous aura on its body gradually subsides, and its hands hang down.

Carlos heaved a sigh of relief watching this scene. He felt that he couldn't be disturbed by talking at the moment, and he saw the ghost seal that Yu Xing had placed on the ground beside him.

Yu Xing is half-kneeling now, wondering if it is a mandatory requirement to use sacrifices or props, Carlos's eyes linger on the ghost seal, and he sneaks around Yu Xing's sight, trying to steal it.

"Really want it so much? While I'm dealing with the gatekeeper?" Just as Carlos bent down and his fingers were about to touch the ghost seal, Yu Xing suddenly laughed.

He broke the silence with his words, but the gatekeeper didn't respond, and seemed to be well appeased.

Carlos froze: "Isn't this stolen by skill?"

"Oh, then try it." Yu Xing smiled, which made Carlos hesitate.

Don't the four words "then try it" usually appear in a threatening tone?
Try and die.

"You're bluffing me." Carlos said with certainty.

Yu Xing smiled deeper: "I didn't fool you, you take it away."

"Do you think I was frightened?" Carlos clicked his tongue, picked up the ghost seal, and quickly backed away.

He thought that Yu Xing would take some measures against him, at least verbally expressing his disappointment, but Yu Xing didn't move.

The longer the incense burned, the shorter it was, and Yu Xing saw another layer of ash accumulated in the incense burner.

Perhaps because the gatekeeper is still very strong, the incense seems to be consumed, burning several times faster than normal incense.

When there was only one piece left, he made a gesture to put away the incense burner.

The gatekeeper has completely calmed down. [Dirty Incense Burner] can only be used three times in total, so it is very effective.

Yu Xing is the user of the props, he can get feedback, in his perception, the gatekeeper should go mad again after ten minutes.

During this period, he could have left quietly, so that the gatekeeper could not find him.

"Carlos." Yu Xing took back the censer and called Carlos.

Carlos was playing the small card of the ghost seal between his fingers, and tilted his head, "Huh? It may be a little late to grab it back now? There are only 2 minutes left."

"I don't want to tell you this, I just want to say..." Yu Xing raised his head, looking at the top of his head with unknown meaning, "There's something else coming."

The gatekeeper was calmed down, but the things that existed in the maze had already been attracted by their staying in the same place for a long time.

That's a lot of hair.

No one has ever said that the labyrinth is safe except for the gatekeepers. Ordinary tombs are full of dangers, not to mention the weird tombs of demons everywhere.

I don't know when it started, the corners of the winding corridor have been filled with hair, they spread and squirm like worms, but they are silent.

Carlos was surprised by the existence of the hair after being reminded by Yu Xing. He followed Yu Xing's gaze and looked up. A strand of hair was hanging on top of his head, and it was about to fall to his forehead.

The lock of hair is tied in a knot at the top, which looks like a hanging rope.

Carlos's heart trembled, the danger was so close to him, he didn't notice it!
It seems that this hairy ghost is very good at interfering with people's perception. Even if he sees the thick hair, his brain can't make a corresponding analysis, as if his brain ignores them uncontrollably.

I'm afraid ordinary people stand here until their hair wraps around their necks and feels suffocation and pain. Then they can realize that they are in a pile of hair that shouldn't be here.

Yu Xing was also surrounded by hair, which swept over like waves. He lowered his eyes, put his backpack on his back, and drew out the Tang knife.

A lock of hair climbed to the top of his head, formed a hanging rope, and fell in front of Yu Xing.

As long as he walked forward normally, he would send his head in with his own hands.

A silvery cold light flashed by, and the knot fell to the ground lifelessly. Yu Xing put away the knife and walked forward as usual. Carlos had already walked a lot to avoid these knots in his hair—the front No gushing hair.

Walking into Carlos' line of sight again, Yu Xing paused for a moment: "The gatekeeper has been appeased by me, let's get out of this area as soon as possible, and walk a little longer before it wakes up, and then you can use your paper man went to find them."

"Hmm." Carlos opened his mouth, and suddenly his pupils shrank, "Wait—"

I saw that Yu Xing didn't seem to see a knot of hair hanging down in front of him, and he was about to bump into it even if he couldn't avoid it.

For a moment, Carlos had a thought in his mind.

It's not "If he dies here, no one will take the ghost seal with me", but...

"This guy reminded me of other ghosts appearing just now, and now he pretends not to see them. I'm afraid it's not to test whether I can be ruthless towards him, and then decide whether to take the ghost seal back?"

After a moment of weighing, he not only shouted a word of caution, but also cut off the knot in front of Yu Xing with a dagger.

This kind of hair has a lot of hair, but it is not tough, and it belongs to the type that is easy to cut.

Yu Xing's "crisis" contact, he looked into Carlos' green eyes, and the countdown on the persona panel came to the last twenty seconds.

"Don't use such a mentally retarded behavior to test me, can you?" Carlos twiddled the ghost seal on his fingertips dissatisfied, "Anyone with a little brain and emergency response ability will not believe you."

"I didn't test your attitude, I was just testing your IQ."

Carlos never expected that Yu Xing could say such shameless words. While speaking, they had already left the range of hair knots and came to a brand new area that they had never seen before.

With five seconds left, Yu Xing raised his hand and handed Carlos a golden sign covered with an unknown material layer: "Take it."

Carlos: "?"

He took the sign, and the first thing he thought of was that Yu Xing would steal something, and he stole the ghost seal back without anyone noticing, but as a top magician, he didn't notice it, he was too comfortable.

However, in the next second, he touched the ghost seal that he took earlier, and the small card was still in his pocket.

It shows that what Yu Xing gave him is not the same thing as what he took away, and there is a difference between the two when you look closely. The former is covered with a layer of translucent material, which is smooth and hidden, and you can't see it unless you look carefully.

The latter is a little black, like normal gold after a long time.

As soon as five seconds came, the system countdown stopped abruptly.

[The time has expired, after judgment, the Ghost Seal is not in your hands]

【mission failed】

[Mission penalty: The plot kill will come within 10 minutes, the chance of survival is 50.00%, please be prepared]

Three reminders flashed in Yu Xing's mind, indicating that his rare mission failed.

It's different from Yu Xing.

Carlos received the reminder that the task was completed, and realized it later: "You made a fake ghost seal? When, how did you have time?"

"I don't need to do it, haven't you seen that there are so many on the gatekeeper's belt." Yu Xing was moved by his wit. The gatekeeper's belt is just something specially designed to fool people, with scales on it The golden sign is intentionally similar to the one made by Yuguiyin, and it will take a long time to find Yuguiyin mixed in it.

I'm afraid that Yaodao's wishful thinking was just such a wishful thinking at the beginning, so that the tomb robbers thought that the ghost seal was on the belt, and after searching for a long time, they would ignore the position of the root of the long tongue.

"But... since you've been so clever and fooled me with fake ones, why did you give me the real ones?" Carlos couldn't understand, this is a plot killing with a 50.00% survival rate, and the degree of danger is equivalent to normal There was a targeted attack in the middle and late stages of the deduction, and Yu Xing actually gave up the security opportunity like this?
Not to mention there is a key clue to the task reward.

"I saw that you took a fake one but didn't suspect it. I once suspected that you had a problem with IQ." Yu Xing glanced at him, "After thinking about it for you, you haven't looked at the seal of the imperial ghost carefully. It's normal if you can't recognize it. And maybe you are not good at things like authenticity. So, I decided to test you from a different angle—"

"Facts have proved that your grasp of human psychology is still very accurate."

"So what does this have to do with you helping me?" Carlos frowned.

"You proved that you are a more valuable teammate. Relatively speaking, you are more important than the 50.00% survival rate." Yu Xing may encounter a plot kill at any time now, and he waited happily, "For me, 50.00% The % death rate is too low to matter."

"Convince me, tell me earlier, I wouldn't have worried about myself." Carlos was surprised by Yu Xing's tolerance and respect for his teammates, but was also speechless by Yu Xing's usual bad taste.

It's hard to say whether the 50.00% mortality rate is low or not. Many bosses must think it is low, but Yu Xing has resurrection props.

Carlos is still thinking about the resurrection he saw that time in Coffin Village. Carlos has only heard of this kind of sacrifice with a heaven-defying ability, but he has no chance to get it.

"What's the point of saying it earlier, let me see your reaction first." Yu Xing smiled, but didn't say the rest of the sentence.

After watching it, I must say that the young man Carlos is like a wild wolf cub who is not easy to control, but he is very talented in some aspects and deserves attention.

The two walked lightly. After more than five minutes, they had turned five or six forks, and they could no longer hear the frequent calls of the gatekeeper.

There was no silence for a while, Carlos walked beside Yu Xing, and elbowed Yu Xing.

"Do you have any questions?" Yu Xing asked without waiting for him to speak.

"How did you realize the hairy ghost just now?" Carlos stood there without realizing it, and Yu Xing just squatted there, still focusing on the gatekeeper. How did he multitask?

"It's simple, because I saw something that shouldn't be here in the corridor just now." Yu Xing replied as a matter of course, "It's on the ground, something left by modern people. The people from Oster Company didn't open the door Ghost's coffin, if that team dropped something in a hurry, why? I can only guess that there are other dangers in the labyrinth."

"Thinking of this, I woke up and noticed the hair."

He took out a palm-sized miniature doll from his pocket, and the little boy in the black suit was full of hope in his eyes: "That's all, thanks to the fact that you are still a magician, it's time to improve your eyesight."
