absurd deduction game

Murmur, murmur.

Zhao Ruru felt her teeth itch after hearing this, and felt that the figure on the wall was a bit scary. It reminded her of cartoons such as "Book of Heaven" that she had watched when she was a child.

It's not a painting style, it mainly reminds her of the feeling of being scared by ghosts and spirits when she was a child. The purest fear of weird things has been slowly worn away as she grew up, and it actually resurfaced today. the trend of.

"It seems that there is no underworld in this world, and the dead can still chew their tongues like this without fear of having their tongues pulled out." Yu Xing bent down and picked up a stone on the ground, throwing it in his hand.

Then, adhering to the principle that he could not be the only one unhappy, he threw the stone at the wall illuminated by the red lantern!

Ordinary people would just smash it once.

Yu Xing was very strong, and the stone directly embedded into the mud wall with a bang, falling right between the two people who were whispering.

There was nothing he could not do to alarm the ghosts. If these two ghosts really came to attack him, that would be even better. As long as he could fight, he would most likely be able to walk sideways at night.

Isn’t there a saying that goes like this——

Please do follow the rules, but if you have a gun in your hand, ignore them.

Zhao Ruru also put his hands on his hips and snorted provocatively from his nose.

"Oh, someone is coming."

The two shadows that were smashed quickly separated, looking like they had been caught talking nonsense, but they did not feel guilty. Their upper bodies of different shapes, one on the left and one on the right, stood straight, suddenly like two stiff corpses.

This appearance reminded Yu Xing immediately of the two paper figures lying at the door of the Song Mansion.

Although they only have the outline of two shadows, and their faces cannot be seen after standing upright, both Yu Xing and Zhao Ruru can feel a strong presence coming from these two groups of things.

They are still talking.

"It's been a long time since I've seen a stranger's face appear at night. It's really strange."

"A man and a woman, having a tryst at night? How shameless!"

Zhao Ruru's goosebumps were turned away by this sentence. She was already dissatisfied with the unclean words of this ghost, but now, in just two sentences, she was made a bad news again?

She immediately exploded like a firecracker, and yelled: "You are shameless! I think you two are having a tryst at night, one man and one man, very close!"

"How can you talk like a bitch?" The voice that said they had a tryst at night shrilled, "I exposed the secret relationship, and you are still so confident!"

"Which of your eyes has seen us having sex in private? I see that all you can think about is taking off your pants, and your eyes are as unclean as your eyes! You are full of shit!!" Zhao Ruru was even sharper than him.

Yu Xing swallowed it back in his stomach before he even cursed it out in one breath.

I really didn't expect that this little girl usually laughs and curses quite dirty. It makes no sense at all and is purely a personal attack.

After the attack, he will still be angry, pointing at the shadow and saying:

"Ouch~ If you two had nothing to do, why would you secretly whisper to each other in the middle of the night? You two are so matched, I'm almost giving you a thumbs up~"

The tone of voice was as weird as it was. Although the ancients probably couldn't understand what "knock" meant, the meaning was definitely conveyed clearly.

The quarrel with Zhao Ruru became even louder, and he didn't say anything about a tryst or not. He could only use ancient vocabulary to scold Zhao Ruru.

"The little girl talks so viciously, be careful not to get married!"

"I think your brain has been eaten by a dog. Didn't you just say that I had a tryst with someone at night and now I can't get married? Look at the man next to me. He is not better than you in any way. You can't even give him You’re not even worthy of carrying your shoes!”

Yu Xing listened with a smile, it didn't matter if he heard that he was being used as a bargaining chip.

"How can a woman's virtue be so bad?"

"You are such a wretched little person, even a woman with bad morals like me can't look down on you! Besides, you are virtuous? I thought you were some kind of gangster, you speak unabashedly, what kind of virtuous man can do that? You too?"

"You...you bitch!"

"What's wrong with the shrew? You're too cowardly if you can't scold the shrew, or are you afraid? You just like the kind of poor woman who bullies Widow Li and can do whatever you want, don't you? You are really a killer, giving birth to a child You don’t have eyes! Forget it, the child is innocent. I think it’s you who don’t have eyes. It’s time to cut off your descendants and stop harming the next generation!”

The ancients still had too few vocabulary for quarreling.

Legend has it that those literati who are talented in literature write articles to curse people, but they do so in a variety of ways without repetition.

But this shadow didn't seem to have a high level of education, and what he wrote was still too elegant. How could Zhao Ruru's straightforward attack be as effective.

Therefore, the shadow said one sentence and Zhao Ruru replied ten sentences, which was full of aggression.

Yu Xing watched Yu Xing's liveliness become more and more cheerful. He knew that Zhao Ruru might have responded angrily at first, but later he was deliberately irritating.

They probably had the same idea as him. They wanted to anger the shadows first and see the limits of these shadows' behaviors. Can they attack living people and what kind of attack methods they would use.

And it has to be said that quarreling and telling jokes are always the best ways to dispel the atmosphere of fear. To deal with this type of evil god's ability, if you can destroy the atmosphere of fear created by the opponent, it may have miraculous effects.

When Zhao Ruru was having a heated argument with this shadow, it was inevitable that another shadow would be affected.

The shadow didn't say anything outrageous, but he was also a gossip, and he didn't pick on people who gossiped.

It said quietly: "I didn't-" It was interrupted.

"I didn't say a word to you, could you-" was interrupted.

"I don't have a habit of cutting off my sleeves, I -"

At this time, it can be seen that there is still a stupid mouth between the two shadows.

After being interrupted many times in a row, this shadow became anxious.

It raised its voice fiercely and complained to its companions: "It's all your fault! Why are you so mean-mouthed? You'll offend everyone! I've been called a cut-off sleeve! It's true that I don't have a son, but I have ■Eyes! What are you doing that affects me!"

Yu Xing: "Pfft."

He couldn't hold it back after all.

When I first saw these two shadows, I thought they were vague, but Zhao Ruru made the ghostly things more vivid with a magical touch.

And the yawning shadow couldn't make any noise to Zhao Ruru. When he heard that even his companions scolded him, his defense was instantly broken.

Its voice was so shrill that it was almost impossible to hear the original male voice, revealing a slightly inhuman vocal range. It was a bit like a "child" in a white jade coffin, and like a dying old man.

"I'm going to kill you! I'm going to kill you!"

Suddenly, the red lantern flashed twice.

The figures on the wall also appeared and disappeared, and the furious shadow suddenly turned its face sideways, its mouth wide open.

Its head instantly enlarged, and its open mouth suddenly swallowed another figure, making a terrifying chewing sound.

The complaints were gone.

Eaten by it.

After swallowing his companion, the figure burst into laughter. His body was no longer stiff, but swayed like a roly-poly. Yu Xing's smile faded slightly, and Zhao Ruru also temporarily stopped talking, watching this with vigilance. Abnormal movement.

You'd better light up your health bar!

Unfortunately, the figure on the wall does not have a bright health bar.

After all, this is something created by the weird and scary evil god. Maybe he never thought about letting people solve the problem through fighting.

The figure didn't come out of the wall, but the swaying shadow and the sharp sound were really demonic. The two people standing on the street realized that they couldn't move their eyes away.

Not only that, as they listened, they all felt some trance and chaos in their minds. Yu Xing just wandered and found that he had taken several steps forward unconsciously.

A little further forward, he would be within the lantern's range.

【11. No matter what situation you encounter, don’t stand in the light. 】

This shadow is tempting them to violate rule number 11!

Yu Xing stretched out his hand and rubbed his head, then pulled back Zhao Ruru who was walking forward again.

It stands to reason that he has the power of curse in his body, and it is a deep and pure power. After all, he has swallowed the power of several ghost Chenshu's clones in different worlds.

He himself can be regarded as an extremely powerful clone of the evil god, but he was not affected by Gui Chenshu's consciousness and lost his ability to think.

He even survived the initial transformation into a monster and relied on his own ability to regain his sanity bit by bit - or maybe he didn't need reason after the separation. In short, his spirit was tempered by the power of the curse. How could he survive in this world? So easily influenced?

This is even just a figure on the wall that could be seen everywhere in Limelight Town!

Well.

The power of this evil god is too evil.

and……

Yu Xing had a bad temper, and the figure smiled like this. He had immediately activated the black mist condensed by the power of the curse to surround the shadow.

But his curse only touched the courtyard wall. It even corroded the courtyard wall a little due to the characteristics of the curse, but did not harm the shadow in the slightest. The shadow didn't seem to be in this dimension, and he couldn't hurt it for the time being.

Maybe when he reaches the point where the black pattern appears, he can catch this shadow beyond the dimension to a certain extent, but if he needs to do this for every shadow, it will consume too much energy.

The power of this evil god can ignore their physical strength and even the energy system they can use, directly impacting their spirit and emotions. So maybe Rule 11 does not mean that you will encounter ghosts only when you stand in the light source. Attacks in this category are dangerous.

But after standing in the light source, you will suffer from irresolvable mental pollution, causing the whole person to disintegrate from the self!

This is far more dire than the consequences of the previous type of violation!

"Ah, stop laughing!" Zhao Ruru suddenly woke up after being pulled back by Yu Xing. She didn't expect that her words would trigger such a vicious mental attack, so she subconsciously took out a copper coin from her pocket to do some divination. .

The copper coin lay in her open palm. Just when she wanted to concentrate, in her eyes, the pattern on the copper coin actually turned into a human face.

The human face smiled and laughed like the figure on the wall.

The two gradually merged into one, as if all the pollution was grafted onto this copper coin.

"What the hell..." Zhao Ruru raised his hand as if he wanted to slap himself, but when his palm fell on his face, he just touched it lightly. It was obvious that he had not made up his mind to slap himself.

She squeezed the copper coin tightly again, as if she could cover that damn face to death, then turned to look at Yu Xing: "Can you bear it? I can't bear it anymore!"

"...That's almost it." Yu Xing tried out all the things that should be tested and picked up another stone.

Before his senses were affected, he aimed at the wick in the red lantern. The sharp stone instantly pierced the lantern cloth and accurately knocked out the wick inside.

There was a pop.

The lantern dimmed.

Without the light source, the illuminated area on the wall naturally ceased to exist, and the swaying figure with a smile also disappeared.

In the blink of an eye, their ears and eyes became quiet.

Yu Xing secretly wrote it down.

The first ghost I encountered while walking at night: a figure on the wall.

They can communicate smoothly, and the figure itself is not too aggressive. Different individuals have different personalities, and they are suspected of being dead souls with memories of their lives.

The attack method should be regarded as mental pollution. Once the ghost attack of the figure on the wall is triggered, physical methods cannot stop it, and the most superficial power of curse cannot touch it.

The weak point is obvious: the light source.

The light source is a real thing. As long as the light source is extinguished, there is no condition for the existence of the figure on the wall.

The threat level of this ghost should be a floating uncertain value.

Whether the degree is high or low depends entirely on the amount of light source and whether it can be extinguished quickly.

The figure on the wall under the red lantern was extremely threatening. If he hadn't wanted to test its existence, Yu Xing wouldn't have waited so long to put out the lantern.

This information is of great record value and can be used to exchange information with other deducers at that time.

After waiting for two seconds, Zhao Ruru suddenly remembered: "By the way, do we damage this family's lanterns and walls?"

Although there are ghosts, this courtyard should belong to some living common people.

"...That's probably it." Yu Xing also just remembered this. He looked at the lantern in silence, which was just a lantern that could no longer be used. It was embedded with a stone half the size of a palm and was corroded much more. The pitted mud walls made his eyes tremble slightly.

He wavered between leaving some apology for the family and walking away after the matter was over.

Ha, I don’t know if the owner of this yard is asleep or not.

If he hadn't slept, he should have been able to hear the whole process of Zhao Ruru's scolding with the ghost just now, right?

The owner of this yard may leave a psychological shadow... He may also discover a new world and realize that some ghosts can actually communicate.

Just when Yu Xing's thoughts began to wander, a figure emerged from the street and alley.

Although Yu Xing's attention was not on the street at the moment, he was instantly aware of the presence of an extra person nearby, as was Zhao Ruru, who both turned their heads in unison.

The person who came was an aunt who looked to be close to fifty years old.

In ancient times, fifty years old was already considered an old person. The rich masters and wives could still look younger. However, the poorer people had wrinkles, tiredness, and even gray hair, and all kinds of diseases. Flood into the body.

The same goes for this aunt. Her hair is still completely black. I'm afraid her real age is not as old as she looks.

The aunt was thin and carried a cane. When she walked slowly over, her steps were as small as walking on small steps.

She slowly stopped in front of Yu Xing and Zhao Ruru.

When he looked at Yu Xing, his expression was scrutinizing, and when he saw Zhao Ruru, his expression suddenly softened.

Yu Xing: "?"

He has seen it all. What kind of different treatment is this?

Zhao Ruru's eyes flashed with caution, but he also realized that this aunt seemed to have a good impression of her, and a sweet smile appeared on his face: "Auntie, what can I do for you?"

At the same time, he looked at the aunt.

Yo, three-dimensional.

It was impossible for either of them to mistake the aunt for a living person.

First of all, the aunt suddenly appeared after turning off the light source. She may have thought that it was more reasonable to go around the alley, but the aunt obviously didn't know that the deducers' perception range could not only reach that alley.

In the perception of Yu Xing and Zhao Ruru, this great god suddenly appeared in the alley and then walked over.

"What are you doing in front of Xiao Li's house?" the aunt said, tapping her crutch on the ground, "Especially you——"

The cane tilted up with a roar, pointing directly at the door in front of Yu Xing.

This rude behavior made Yu Xing raise his eyebrows. He was tall and powerful, and his temperament was not weak at all. Very few people would behave like this when they met.

Although the person in front of me is not a human...

He followed the aunt's tone and asked, "Me?"

"Are you like that Wang Ermazi, who only wants to bully Xiao Li?" The aunt said in a bad tone, but after looking at Zhao Ruru again, she softened slightly, "Looking at you with a little girl, it doesn't look like that. People like that.”

Xiao Li?

Is that the Widow Li that the two shadows said?

So this is Widow Li’s yard?

No wonder, those two gossiping ghosts were beeping on the front wall. It turned out to be the principle of proximity.

Yu Xing understood and asked tentatively: "Are you Aunt Zhang?"

One of the ghosts said that it was Aunt Zhang who said that Wang Erpazi sneaked into Widow Li's yard.

He originally thought that Aunt Zhang was also the kind of market villain who talked nonsense, but after meeting him like this, he found that Aunt Zhang clearly cared about Widow Li, and they were so wary of him just because he was a man.

"Yes, I came to see Xiao Li." Aunt Zhang did not ask how Yu Xing knew her, but said angrily, "Last time I saw Wang Erpazi sneaking into Xiao Li's house, I knew something was wrong. , go in and take a look, the Thousand Sword Killer really wants to taint Xiao Li!"

"Fortunately, I went in time... I haven't been here for a long time after that day. I don't know how Xiao Li is doing. Alas, every time I think about coming, a rogue drives me away. He knows Wang Er Mazi, and I know him. Same black!"

Aunt Zhang doesn't seem to be too wary of Yu Xing. Although she has learned from the past, women from these poor families are also very self-aware.

Yu Xing has a gentle and handsome appearance, and he is tall. He will be snatched up by women of the right age wherever he is. Why does he need to bully a widow in the middle of the night?

She muttered, walked forward and patted the courtyard door.

"Xiao Li, it's me, Aunt Zhang. Let me see you!"

Zhao Ruru, who was originally listening intently to what she said, suddenly frowned.

That's not right.

This aunt is a ghost, and no matter when she died, she would still be a ghost.

Since this courtyard belongs to Xiao Li, it means that Xiao Li is a living commoner, and living commoners must abide by the rules. In this situation, isn't it just a "ghost" knocking on the door of a living person?

If you switch to the perspective of Widow Li, this is a danger that triggers the night! Anyone who knows some rules cannot open the door for Aunt Zhang. How can Aunt Zhang not know it?

Moreover, if ghosts and living people can maintain such a good relationship, then they don't necessarily have to be so afraid of ghosts. Isn't there an older generation in this town who can't let go of their children after they die? When the time comes when the ghosts of the elders knock on the children's doors and want to say something from their hearts, there will always be young people who are not afraid.

Just as Zhao Ruru was thinking about it, Yu Xing said, "Aunt Zhang, it's too late now. Is Mrs. Li already asleep?"

"Uh, yes Aunt Zhang, how can anyone come out at this point?" Zhao Ruru said, narrowing his eyes slightly, and asked pointedly, "You should know..."

Aunt Zhang seemed to be deaf now, as if she didn't hear.

She patted the door again and turned her head.

"Why can't I knock the door? No, please help me. Open the door for me!"
