absurd deduction game.

Chapter 856 Are Your Brain Broken?
Speaking of the production process of this blessing card, it is indeed much easier than looking for dolls.

Several material locations have been directly informed to the "passengers", they only need to avoid the evil ghost townspeople on the road, and after arriving at the designated location, learn to make with the "craft masters" who have been waiting for them in those locations.

There will be no ghost townspeople in those locations, they only need to pass some non-lethal tests-such as soaking the wooden signs with their own blood and dyeing the wooden signs red, or needing to make lanyard tassels with a Talk to the female ghost in the mirror, get a lock of her long hair, and use her long hair as weaving material.

It is even easier to write the content of prayers in ink. You only need to write the words in a good-looking way. However, only true wishes can leave ink marks on the blood-colored wooden sign. Otherwise, no matter how thick the ink is poured on it, there will be no trace left.

After I have been to all three places, the prayer card will be finished. I just need to wait until [-]:[-] pm to hang the sign on the sacred tree, and the rest of the time can be arranged by myself.

Therefore, those who chose the blessing card returned to Baibao Street early, looked for information from various merchants, and tried to receive side missions from merchants to obtain points.

However, as night fell, the closer it was to eight o'clock, the more uneasy these people felt.

The reasoner's sixth sense seldom makes mistakes. Their game is so easy to complete-this "easy" is compared to the first day-I am afraid that the hidden danger will be exposed when it is time to hang the blessing card.

Zhang Yu also thought so, so when he saw Yu Xing on Baibao Street, he immediately rushed forward and told Yu Xing in detail about today's experience like a child finding his parents, including the kind of late The more uneasy feeling.

That's why Yu Xingcai sat down with him at the tea stall ahead of time to observe the sacred tree.

Then, the sacred tree, which was still in the crowd of many deducers during the day, quietly changed into such a strange appearance at night.

The cursed power mixed with the twisted energy of the snake girl on the tree surrounded the sacred tree like this. Others couldn't see it, but Yu Xing could tell it at a glance.

This tree possessed the power of curse and distortion at the same time, it was so impure that even the black mist in his body couldn't bear the interest of swallowing it.

For the ghost tree curse, another tree is nothing more than its nutrient or unconnected limbs. If it encounters it, it will either be devoured or assimilated. emerges under the skin.

But the divine tree in front of him was like a plate of delicacies that was drenched in rotten pus. No matter how appetizing it was, the moment the pus poured on it, it was already disgusting waste.

"Captain... so what kind of curse will we experience?" Zhang Yu panicked.

This panic was not because of his personal cowardice, but it had arisen naturally with the passage of time, as if some kind of hidden law was giving them a warning before they were about to hang up the blessing cards.

Yu Xing suddenly sighed.

Lan Wu also felt tight in his heart: "What, what's wrong?"

Yu Xing said: "It's nothing, I just feel that your cognition has been affected unconsciously after all."

The two juniors at the same table slept in the hotel last night. They have not experienced the cognitive distortion in the townspeople's homes, and they are not keen enough for today's blessing card game.

Otherwise, Zhang Yu would not have described the game as simple and easy when he first reported his experiences.

Although Yu Xing mentioned that they were affected, the tone of his voice didn't seem to be very serious. Zhang Yu quietly exhaled: "Captain, I shouldn't be affected too much, right?"

He didn't even feel any different from before.

"You said a lot after all, and you are so stupid." Yu Xing glanced at him, and Zhang Yu's heart thumped again.

Considering that the snake girl's cognitive distortion is irresistible to Zhang Yu...and Lan Wu, Yu Xing didn't make it difficult for them to think for themselves, and said instead:

"Where's your prayer card?"

The two of them took out the finished signs from their pockets and put them on the table, but they were all facing down, pressing the ink-stained side underneath.

Yu Xing glanced at it, and Zhang Yu explained: "Although there is no danger in writing the wish, the master craftsman added a rule for us."

"Before the blessing cards are hung on the sacred tree, no one can know the wishes we wrote down, otherwise we will be backlashed and run counter to our wishes."

So they trusted Yu Xing and took it out as soon as they said it, but they still didn't dare to let Yu Xing see the front of the blessing card.

Yu Xing lowered his eyes and smiled inexplicably: "That's it."

He reached out and picked up Lan Wu's piece, he did not look at the hidden wish, but rubbed his thumb on the back of the card for a while, and fiddled with the tassel twice.

The smooth and flexible touch flicked across his fingertips, and he put down the sign with a flat expression: "If it weren't for cognitive distortion, do you really think that things made of female ghost hair and your blood can be used?"

"Blood is the best medium for many curses. Female ghosts are yin, and hair is also yin. In other deduction dungeons, you will never contribute your own blood, let alone let the hair of the female ghost be fettered with your own blood .”

This is equivalent to knowing that the ghost is going to kill you, but you still give the murder weapon to the ghost without hesitation.

His voice was not heavy, but blood flashed across the tip of his tongue, like a sharp long needle, piercing the balloon that shrouded Zhang Yu and Lan Wu's cognition.

There seemed to be a bang in my head.

Zhang Yu's pupils shrank, it was like waking up from a dream, his mind was clear, and when he looked at the blessing card again, he felt cold sweat protruding from his back.

Yeah, how could he not realize that it was wrong to do so?
Even if making a blessing card is a necessary task, he doesn't have the ability to confuse the public and replace his own blood with other blood, but he shouldn't be unaware after doing these things, thinking that making a blessing card is "simple" "!"
"At that time... the master craftsman kept talking in my ear." Lan Wu shook his head and got goosebumps all over his body. He recalled carefully, which attracted Yu Xing's attention.

"At that time, every time we went to a place, we would meet different craftsmen. The one who taught us to soak wooden signs with blood was a middle-aged man, the one who weaved lanyards and tassels was a woman, and the one who wrote wishes in ink was an old man."

"They all only teach one-on-one. When someone is studying in the room, others can only wait outside the room and cannot hear any sound in the room."

Lan Wu pressed his temples: "When I went in, no matter which craftsman it was, they were very close to me. I was always wary of them, but somehow I gradually became completely unprepared, even though they were almost right in my ear. Teach me how to do it."

"And then, no matter what they say, you think it's logical and not a big deal?" Yu Xing tilted his head.

"...Well." Lan Wu nodded, "Actually, I know it's wrong to do this, but I can't arouse the interest of rebelling. It seems that there is a voice saying, if it's wrong, it's wrong, and it's not a big deal."

A trace of humiliation flashed across Zhang Yu's face: "I feel like the idiot in a mystery novel who is hypnotized by the villain with a few words, and then becomes a time bomb for the protagonist's team."

Lan Wu: "..." Thank you, then I am also a fool.

"Let's talk about the female ghost in the mirror. I heard from you before that the craftsman has a mirror. You must ask the female ghost in the mirror for a strand of her hair before you can start making lanyard tassels." Yu Xing tapped the desktop. , "And the female ghost has a weird temper. She is always angry, happy, and sad for no reason, but she is always a good talker. After a while, she will always give you her hair."

"Now tell me, what is she planning?"

Lan Wuran.

"A female ghost who doesn't even attack, even if she is angry, she just doesn't want to give her hair. Heh, that's really a good ghost." Yu Xing mocked, "There is an even more outrageous factor, Zhang Yu."

The person who was called shuddered.

"For you, what's the worst thing about a female ghost?"

Zhang Yu quickly recalled all the content of the exchange with the female ghost.

In the mirror, the female ghost only showed her head and a part of her neck. Her face was covered by a big black and shiny braid, braided at the chin, and the tail of her hair fell back on her shoulders. To show the neck.

The female ghost asked him where he came from, and he only said that he was from afar.

The female ghost asked him what he was asking for, and he honestly replied that he asked for a lock of her hair.

The female ghost asked him what wish he had, and he said many unimportant little wishes, such as making dumplings with Ran Ran next time; buying a complete set of Yuanshang's collection books; and encouraging Ran Ran to wear a maid outfit this year... …

Then the female ghost was angry and sad again, saying why she still listened to people talking about love after she died, and asked him, didn't he have any more important and bigger wishes?

Zhang Yu's final answer is that the bigger wish is

Marry Ran Ran.

The female ghost was completely speechless, and even the weird feeling brought by that thick black and shiny braid seemed to have dissipated a lot, and then her tone was impatient, and she just said, "I gave you your hair, get out of here, I don't want to say anything more to you." Hate."

When communicating with the female ghost, the surroundings became a vast expanse of whiteness, the sense of existence of the original room completely faded away, and only the mirror and the wooden chair sitting under the buttocks remained in consciousness.

After the female ghost let him go, everything returned to the original state. The master craftsman stood beside the mirror, and in front of the mirror, there was an extra strand of long hair, and only his own figure remained in the mirror.

"I see." Zhang Yu had a flash of inspiration, "The most strange thing is the existence of the female ghost!"

Lan Wu was surprised, but Zhang Yu continued:
"From the moment we entered Nanshui Town, the ghosts we encountered were either monsters from the townspeople, or strange things like ceramics, or shadows in the aftermath of old events, or ritual costumes and rituals that were inexplicably connected to our lives. Flesh ghosts or something."

"There has never been a disembodied female ghost!"

"Not to mention the ghost in the mirror who uses the mirror as a medium, her existence is too abrupt, and she is not next to anything." After Zhang Yu finished speaking, he looked at Yu Xing hesitantly, "Captain, I... am I right? ?”

Yu Xing smiled and said, "Okay, I still have some brain left."

"Let's put aside the issue of the female ghost, let's look at the link of writing wishes."

"Since it is known that you have provided blood and have been connected with the female ghost's hair, you have to write down your true wishes."

"Know what's going to happen?"

"Cursed." Zhang Yu dryly copied the answer Yu Xing had announced earlier.

Yu Xing laughed, okay, this kid is quite good at taking advantage of loopholes.

He hooked his lips: "...First of all, you made the blessing cards by yourself from the beginning to the end, which means that you 'voluntarily' donated your blood to ask the sacred tree for your wishes to come true."

"This move is not a simple prayer, but almost the same as self-sacrifice. The harder it is for your wish to come true, the more you need to sacrifice. As long as you hang up the blessing cards, the curse will take effect."

"Coupled with the power of this cognitive distortion..."

"I think that when you are alone at night, the Divine Tree will deceive your cognition, make your brain think that your wish has been fulfilled, and add a memory to you out of thin air."

"Of course you will feel that something is wrong. In fact, it is very simple to find a loophole in a memory that has been forced in. Maybe it only takes half an hour for you to dismantle this lie."

"However, in the half an hour before this dismantling, your consciousness has been granted by default. During this period, the sacred tree can use the rules of the curse to absorb your life as its nourishment."

"It takes less than half an hour to suck a person dry."

Whether it was Zhang Yu, Lan Wu, or the sorceress who was listening at the next table at some point, they were all terrified by this last sentence.

If this is the case, in fact, the real test of choosing a blessing card is whether the deducer can realize that the memory of the wish fulfillment is false as soon as possible. As long as the brain remembers that "the wish has not been fulfilled", it can stop the divine tree to get rewarded Absorb their life force in name.

But it's not easy either.

Moreover, sucking dry is sucking dry, even if you are not directly sucked to death by the sacred tree, you will be taken away more or less part of your vitality during the time wasted. It's hard to say.

"How can you guess so specifically?" At that moment, the sorceress at the next table couldn't help it anymore, and her hoarse voice added another touch of weirdness in the night.

Yu Xing knew that the people at the next table were eavesdropping. Since he still spoke directly, he didn't mind the others getting a little benefit.

"Specifically? Of course it's because I know too well." Yu Xing grinned and showed a creepy smile at the next table.

If it is said that he has only touched the power of Qianjie a few times, he only finds it tricky and troublesome, but the power of the curse has been with him for a hundred years. Understand the power of the curse.

Wishing and cursing, ghost Shenshu can do such things.

But the ghost tree will not help people realize their wishes, as long as it tricks people into approaching, it will devour everything with curses without reason.

As for wish, it's just an excuse.

Now this sacred tree is so big, it can be seen that the snake girl can't cultivate it well, and she added the ability of thousands of knots to it, and the finished product, the ability of cursing is naturally not so overbearing, but using cognition to take advantage of loopholes method has become feasible.

If he were this tree, he would also choose this direction of growth, so as not to turn himself into a useless waste product.

"Then what do we do?"

Over there, a few people hesitated, and a voice asked.

Yu Xing asked in surprise, "You're all out of your minds too?"

Everyone: "..."

It may be a little bit, feeling empty in the head.

"There are two solutions, one is to fight against cognitive distortions, and the other is to fight against curses." Yu Xing raised his eyebrows, "Nanshui Town is the home of cognitive distortions, and you are not sure to stop it before you can accept the consequences." The Divine Tree, of course we have to start with the curse."

Compared with cognitive distortions, the deducer's understanding of curses is much deeper.

To give a very simple example, if Carlos were here, he would definitely be able to hang the blessing card without any scruples. When the curse came, he would throw out so many dead paper figures, and the tree of gods would have nothing to do with him.

Cognitive distortion is located to everyone through the blood on the blessing card, but the basis of the cognitive distortion of the sacred tree comes from the curse. The little paper man may not be able to transfer the cognitive distortion, but as long as they can transfer the curse, the cognitive distortion will naturally Followed by failure.

After all, the sacred tree is only something planted by the snake girl. It is estimated that she stole a core branch of the ghost tree somewhere, planted it in the soil, and then used people to make fertilizer and apply some fertilizer to grow like this. The year is too young. In fact, against this group of deducers with extremely strong average strength, it is nothing at all.

Which player hasn't ordered damage transfer?

Yu Xing paused.

Oh, except Zhang Yu.

Even the amulet that Lan Wu brought with him from Medusa might be able to resist the devouring effect of the curse. In other words, in Nanshui Town, the most terrifying thing is the cognitive damage, and the curse is a younger brother.

As long as you are clear-headed and don't look like you're all idiots like now, the Divine Tree is nothing to be afraid of.

Oh, except Zhang Yu.

However, this is also the difficulty after Yu Xing speaks clearly. If no one present understands the ghost tree, it is naturally impossible to determine what means this sacred tree will use to harm people. It is difficult to deal with it in advance, and the characteristic of cognitive distortion is quietly.

When people are already immersed in the dream of wish fulfillment, I'm afraid they can't think of dealing with the curse.

Sitting at the next table are Goddess, Gu Xing and Yan.

Yan chose to find a doll, and hanging a blessing card has nothing to do with her, and she didn't dare to talk to Yu Xing for the time being, so she kept pretending to be dead.

Both the witch and Gu Xing expressed their gratitude to Yu Xing.

Only Zhang Yu was numb.

But he didn't panic. Under such circumstances, his captain would not abandon him, so he looked at Yu Xing eagerly: "Captain, what should I do."

A playful flash of Yu Xing's eyes, just about to speak -

Zhang Yu hurriedly said: "Because the cognition is affected, I let myself give up thinking. I already know that I am wrong."

"Others have the ability to protect themselves and fight without a brain, and they can still survive. I only have a brain, but I can still be so careless, and my traits are easier to resist cognitive distortions, but I haven't brought them into play. If there is no captain I'm going to die, I should remember this lesson."

"I have gained experience this time, so I must pay attention next time! My life is my own. Since I chose this path without combat ability, I should be more cautious!"

This introspection at the speed of light stunned the people next to him.

Zhang Yu curled himself up into a ball, cowardly enough to be seen by the naked eye, trying to make Yu Xing feel better with this funny gesture.

After his observation, he has already seen that Yu Xing is more inclined to show weakness!
Yu Xing's personality is very strong, and he also likes to tease people for fun in insignificant aspects. For him, when he usually wants him to realize where his mistakes are, he will severely "humiliate" him and let him grow up. memory.

If you want to skip the stage of being humiliated and get help directly, it is better to actively admit your mistakes and take the initiative to grab white.
