absurd deduction game

"Hold it!"

"Hold on! How is the master? Can you still hold on?"

On the central ship, the water is roaring and the people are roaring too.

This ship is a passenger boat. It is small in size and has only one wooden room for people to rest. It is transparent from all sides and is supported by thin carved pillars and air-leakable window panes.

The room is equipped with carved tables, chairs and screens, and is usually used for short-distance river view tours.

But now, the screen has long since collapsed, the decorative bottles and cans are shattered on the ground, the heavy rain has long flooded the hull, and the flying raindrops have wet everything in the shipyard.

Zhao Mou held the two bodies trying to jump off the ship with one hand, tied them up with ropes again, and pulled them to the center of the boat.

On the floor, there were still several struggling corpses rolling around. They were all tied up with ordinary hemp ropes. Because the movements were too large, they would break free after a while, and then they would have to be caught again.

The wind and rain were swaying, but fortunately the hull was protected by the Immovable Mountain Spell and remained stable. However, Ren Yi, who was responsible for activating the talisman, was not doing well - he had been holding on for too long.

Ren Yi's face turned pale to the naked eye, and he sat helplessly leaning against the wooden wall of the boat. The cloth covering his eyes had fallen off... He only closed his eyes, and seemed to be relying on his hearing to understand the development of the situation.

The situation in the boat was very bad.

These six corpses... were all brought in by the old man. The old man controlled the corpses to walk to the boat, but disappeared when they came to stop them.

The corpses did not transform into corpses and attack humans everywhere, but they seemed to be given the command "must jump into the water", and no one could hold them back. Fortunately, before the corpses were swept into the river, They discovered one thing——

Only when the sedan girl is around will the power of the corpse become smaller, giving them a chance to restrain the corpse.

The Siren didn't want to board the ship. Her identity was too sensitive and she might fall into a trap if she boarded the ship. However, in order to control the body, she had to step into the boat.

They wanted to quickly control the corpses and drag them back to the inn, but just when they finally pulled the corpses to the center of the boat room, the old man suddenly appeared again and untied the ropes that tied the boat!

The river water couldn't wait to swallow them, and almost instantly, the ship was swept into the river, far away from the docking place of the port.

So they fell into such a passive situation.

Song Xue and Zhao Zhan took out their Immovable Mountain Charms to stabilize the ship. Ren Yi took over the activation of the two spells. The Siren also wanted to help, but she found that the river was particularly attractive to her, so she only got close to the ship. At the same time, she actually had the urge to jump down.

Jiang Shui's voice gradually became more concrete in her mind, as if there were bursts of murmuring, constantly saying to her: "Come down...come down..."

The identity of the sedan girl... is really a time bomb!

In order not to become a burden to her companions at this time, she stayed peacefully in the boat and weakened the corpses.

The red wedding dress clung to the Siren's body in a heavy and trivial way, making her uncomfortable and at the same time like a shackle.

As time passed, the voices in her mind that were not hers became louder and more frequent. She had wanted to ignore everything and jump directly into the river several times to fulfill her "marriage".

Except for her and Ren Yi, the other three people were working hard to drive the boat to the shore and were responsible for catching the bodies that broke free from the rope. They were very efficient and barely managed to form a stalemate with the river.

But if the stalemate continues, they will be the first to be unable to hold on!

If Ren Yi could no longer withstand the damage done to his soul by the Immovable Mountain Curse, they would have to replace him and lose a combat force who could move freely.

This will only get worse and worse. What's worse is that they alone can't anchor the ship to the shore!

So they could only persist while waiting for help from other deducers. During this period, they also saw countless water ghosts floating in the water.

I don't know how long it took before Zhao Mou saw two ships coming towards them.

He paid attention and saw one of the ships being shattered by the whirlpool, while the other one quickly approached them.

On the ship were Yu Xing and his brother!

Oh, and there are the two from the Survival Investigation Team.

"Hey--"

When the two sides met, Quinn waved to them: "We're here to help!"

Song Xue shouted: "Come up!"

The two ships crashed into each other.

Fortunately, Yu's boat was obviously not as strong as the boat. After barely docking, Zhao Mou handed them a hemp rope, and one by one they climbed onto the boat along the hemp rope.

When Yu Xing got on the boat, he glanced back and happened to catch a glimpse of Zhao Yijiu, who was picking up the Immovable Mountain Curse. His face was pale and there was a strange sense of stagnation in his movements.

"..."

The anger in his eyes disappeared in a flash, and he quickly jumped onto the boat and stared at Zhao Yijiao until the other party landed safely with his still-appearing agility. The boat, which lost the spell to suppress it, quickly disappeared into the river and was torn and buried by the dense hair of the water ghost.

Everyone took a breath. Yu Xing glanced at it and roughly understood the situation on the boat and why they stayed on the river.

"It seems that we need to collect four Immovable Mountain Spells to temporarily suppress this place before we can return to the shore smoothly." Yu Xing hit the nail on the head and motioned to Zhao Yijiu to display the talisman.

The person behind the scenes gave them such a prop, and it should be used at this time.

Everyone works together to fight against ghosts and the unshakable force of nature. This kind of passionate plot...isn't it my favorite part of "drama"?

As he spoke, Zhao Yijiu waved the talisman in front of them, then placed it on the ground beside Ren Yi, adding the protective effect of this immovable mountain talisman to the hull of the ship.

Ren Yi was motionless, his face was as pale as paper. If it weren't for the slight rise and fall of his chest, he would have looked as if he was dead. He didn't care about everyone getting on the boat.

Zhao Yijiu raised his eyebrows.

Is this the consequence of activating two spells at the same time? Moreover, the time it took Ren Yi to activate the spell was probably four to five times longer than his.

Soul...

Over there, Zhao Zhan's eyes lit up when he saw the talisman: "How many do you have?"

"That's the one." Quinn replied quickly, with a bitter look on his face at the end, "So, the other three are not all with you?"

If there was only one difference, Zhao Zhan's question would definitely not be like this.

"...We have two, plus yours, there is still one missing." After Song Xue finished speaking, everyone looked at each other.

Where is the bad one?

Among those who stayed in Yizhuang, Zhao Ruru's items were bells, Zhao Dongxue and Cheng Yiyu's items were mirrors and gold hairpins respectively, and Zhao Huaisheng's talisman was already here.

The only person who might possess the talisman is Luo Yan!

"Could it be in the hands of that young master?" Zhao Mou was familiar with Luo Yan as a doctor. He recalled that he had never seen Luo Yan use props.

Even when he was tricked by a boy, Luo Yan escaped by himself.

Zhao Zhan frowned: "Where are the others? Didn't they come?"

"Everyone else is in Yizhuang. There are only four of us here. Don't you have eyes?" Nie Lang didn't have a good look on anyone and rolled his eyes when he heard the question.

"But the eldest young master seems to be very kind and will not let others suffer danger. He will probably arrive soon." Yu Xing said with certainty. He guessed that Luo Yan would come out of the backyard after resting for five and ten minutes. Enter the courtyard gate here.

"We tied the bodies with cotton thread first, so we don't have to worry about them struggling anymore."

This proposal was unanimously approved. Everyone divided the cotton threads and tied the hands and feet of the six corpses. They finally became quiet and remained stiff and motionless.

There was no longer a sense of urgency to retrieve the body at any time, and the people on the ship could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"Let the master rest first, and let someone else activate the wood chips. If this continues, the master may die." Siren said quietly, trying hard to restrain his instinct to jump into the river.

At present, Ye Jiang has not come up with any new tricks. Two talismans can ensure the stability of the boat. They freed Ren Yi, one was activated by Quinn, and the other was activated by Zhao Zhan as designated by Zhao Yijiu.

The one who was here originally, and the other who came on board for reinforcements later, it was reasonable. Zhao Zhan curled his lips and did not refuse this errand.

As for the charm Zhao Yijiu brought, he put it away again and put it back in his pants pocket.

"Master, how are you?" Song Xue calmly knelt down next to Ren Yi and patted his face.

Ren Yi's body was as cold as if he had been dead for a long time.

Fortunately, he was still breathing, and the air exhaled from his nose was still warm.

"I..." Ren Yi slowly opened his eyes, revealing his gray, unfocused eyes, "It's okay..."

"But I feel a little bad now."

He seemed to want to stand up, but he didn't move for a long time, and it took a while before he bent his legs.

Under the concerned eyes of everyone, he looked paralyzed and said numbly: "...the body is disobedient."
