Chapter Forty-Eight: The Secret of the Book


At this time, the demon leader slowly put forward his own suggestion: "Instead of bothering to find out the identity of the murderer, let's use our brains more to protect ourselves."

Otherwise, tomorrow one of us may be turned into a corpse. ” There was a brief silence, and everyone was clearly aware of the darkness and danger that lay in this mysterious space that they were not familiar with.

"What should we do" Hu Lei finally couldn't control his emotions and shouted, "There is no way to escape, do you really want to wait for death in this ghost place?"

"What's the panic, you're not dead yet."

Hu Lei was overwhelmed by Hong Yi's momentum, and he lowered his head.

Hong Yi continued: "The most important thing at the moment is to twist it into a rope, let's stop fighting in the nest, this is probably what that demon wants to see the most." ” The Demon Leader said worriedly: "If it is really like what Mr.

Qi said, this guy uses the Divine Hidden Mist Technique to deal with us, I am afraid that even if everyone gets together 24 hours a day, he can easily break through each of them." ” "This stupid method should have been eliminated a long time ago, but I have a strategy for dealing with him."

Hong Yi replied confidently, his hands dancing deftly as he spoke.

Strange human voices suddenly sounded in the corridor, as if they were strange moans coming from the ground, Qi Lu looked at the sound and found that a figure appeared in the shadow of the corner, and then more figures appeared in the surrounding walls.

The moaning sound became more pronounced, extending from the appearance of the figure to the sides of the corridor, and Qi Lu heard the sound of "popping" footsteps around him, as if something was approaching.

The wall of the figure protruded, followed by legs sticking out, and then a man with pale skin and a monster-like body walked out of the wall and stopped in front of Hong Yi.

When more of these weirdos came out of the wall and stopped beside Hong Yi, Qi Lu's face instantly turned as pale as their skin tones, as he recognized them as the innocent tourists who had been killed by the cult villagers earlier.

They were all dead, but now they had been made into dolls by Hong Yi, and it was like rotten blood flowing out of their bodies and falling to the floor and spreading, and the whites of their eyes that rolled like dead fish looked extremely terrifying.

Qi Lu endured the feeling of nausea and asked Hong Yi: "What do you mean by this?"

"From today onwards, I will assign each of you a guard, who will follow you inseparably, and if the murderer tries to do something wrong, this puppet will be the first to block the fatal blow for you, and buy you time to escape and report the news."

Ji Wei looked at the corpse-like puppet, and asked in disbelief: "Just rely on this thing, can it work?"

"Of course it's impossible to expect the puppet to defeat this demon."

Hong Yi replied: "These puppets are all controlled by me, once they fight the murderer, I can sense the movement of the puppets, so as to perceive the distortion of space" Before Hong Yi's words were finished, the Demon Leader nodded with an approving expression and said, "If this happens, this guy's Divine Hidden Mist Technique will not work, and we can also discover the passage between the space he created and the illusion in time, and it will be very difficult for the murderer to escape." ” "Yes, whether you can catch the murderer by then depends on your performance."

Ji Wei suddenly shouted excitedly, "Then what are we waiting for, let's go and dismantle this guy."

Hong Yi glanced at him and then turned his head and asked Qi Lu: "Mr.

Qi, do you have any other opinions?"

Qi Lu is such a smart person, when he heard Hong Yi ask this question, he suddenly knew that he was worried that he would take care of the identity of the murderer's god and not try his best to help them at that time, so he replied in an affirmative tone: "Please rest assured, we are all grasshoppers on a rope now, and only by uniting together can we have a chance to escape from the cage." ” "Okay."

Hong Yi was waiting for Qi Lu's assurance, "But I want to remind you and Mr.

Wu that before the murderer is caught, you two should not act on your own, otherwise don't blame me for thinking that there is collusion between you and the murderer." ” In order to dispel his doubts, Qi Lu said to Hong Yi in a more affirmative tone: "Please rest assured, if there is any emergency, I will definitely notify you in time." ” "Then it's troublesome Mr.

Qi."

Hong Yi was completely relieved at this time, so he arranged for his accomplices to carry Yi Hanchuan's body out of the hotel and bury it next to Hu Qingyun's grave.

Two new graves were erected in the snow that had not yet completely melted, and everyone couldn't help but feel a little sad, and they all dispersed in twos and threes after the memorial service.

Hong Yi saw that it was not early, so he took Ji Wei to the kitchen to cook dinner, Qi Lu only felt a little depressed, so he went back to the room to rest alone.

Back in the room, Qi Lu couldn't help frowning as soon as he sat at the head of the bed, after all, he was no longer alone in the room now, but there was a little follower arranged by Hong Yi.

Qi Lu looked at this puppet with a slight smell and a hideous face, and his mood was even more depressed, thinking that this disgusting guy was by his side, and he felt like staying in the toilet all the time.

At this moment, Lao Wu pushed the door in, followed by a puppet, Qi Lu couldn't help but be a little upset and said, "Don't run around if it's okay, so as not to let those monsters cause misunderstanding." ” "Yes, I think you dislike this corpse next to you."

Lao Wu saw through his thoughts.

"yes."

Qi Lu didn't deny it, and as he spoke, he took the mythological book of unknown origin in his hand.

"So we thought of a piece."

Lao Wu pointed to the book he was holding in the midst of a hey laugh.

"Hehe" Qi Lu showed a smug look.

"Master, it seems that you have also secretly counted Yi Hanchuan's corpse."

"Of course, the kid surnamed Yi was made into 14 pieces by the murderer."

"The second story in the book tells the story of the Egyptian evil god Seth who usurped the throne and dismembered his brother's body into 14 pieces and threw them into the river, which coincided with Yi Hanchuan's death."

"Then we already know the secrets of this book."

Qi Lu nodded and said: "Almost, there are nine stories in the book, and the common denominator of the first eight is that the protagonist is dead, and now trapped in the illusion, except for the six evils, are you and me, and it happens that eight people correspond to eight stories." ” As soon as Qi Lu's words were finished, the atmosphere in the room was unusually cold, because they both found that the myths and stories in this book were not random calculations by the writer, but that he had set up the murder method in advance.

In the first story, Acteon was bitten to death by a hound because he knew the secret of the moon god, and Hu Qingyun must have died tragically in his hands because he discovered the secret of the murderer.

If the cause of Hu Qingyun's death is just speculation, Yi Hanchuan's death is even more obvious, which is completely consistent with the content of the second story, Qi Lu couldn't help but feel nervous, and quickly opened this thin book and read the third story.

Lao Wu said with a little emotion: "This murderer is really arrogant, he actually demonstrated to us nakedly" "What an arrogant and conceited fellow."

Qi Lu's eyes were puzzled: "But among the gods we are familiar with, no one has such an annoying arrogant personality. ” "It doesn't matter who he is, Hong Yi's kid's method still works, or it won't be long before we can remove his disguise."

Qi Lu lit a cigarette and said, "We have discovered the secret in the book, do you say those monsters have noticed it?"

"Except for Hong Yi, the others are as stupid as pigs, and they shouldn't have noticed this detail."

Qi Lu nodded slightly, Hong Yike had inherited all the wisdom of Yanshi, and Yi Hanchuan's body had also been restored by his hands, it was impossible for him not to notice this flaw, and then deduce the secret hidden in the book.

But then a new question came to mind, so Qi Lu asked again: "Since Hong Yi knew the murderer's killing methods, why didn't he tell this secret in public?"

"Didn't you say it either" Lao Wu smiled slightly, "Don't look at them on the surface, they are actually playing their own little calculations in their hearts." ” "Then, judging from the content of Chang'e's story of running to the moon, the murderer is hinting to us, will the next deceased die in a plot" Qi Lu didn't want to speculate too much about Hong Yi's inner thoughts, and instead discussed the content of the third story with Lao Wu.

"It should be so, so we have to be careful not to fall into his way."

Qi Lu was about to say something, when he saw Ji Wei knocking on the door and inviting them to dinner.

He had no choice but to shrug his shoulders to Lao Wu, and then went downstairs to meet them.

After dinner, Hu Lei burped back to the room, and as soon as he closed the door, he found that the lamp blinked suddenly, and the light turned indigo.

Hu Lei's nerves tensed suddenly, and the snake monster sword quietly appeared in his hand.

He nervously examined everything in the room, but it only lasted a few seconds before the light returned to its normal warm white.

The unknown light may be the reason for the lack of voltage, Hu Lei let out a long breath and put down his sword, but his temples immediately beat violently.

"I'm going to surprise you," Hu Lei suddenly heard the voice of a strange man outside the door.

Hu Lei couldn't help but prick up his ears, and his nerves tensed again.

But there was no more to do after that, and he hesitated and slammed the door open to the side.

When I opened my eyes, I could vaguely see a figure standing outside the door, but I couldn't see his face clearly.

The fierce energy accompanied by the night wind blew into the hut from behind the figure.

Hu Lei's hair fluttered backwards in the wind, and the lights in the room swayed as if they were about to go out, casting strange shadows on the ground.

"Hmph, do you want to attack me?"

Hu Lei stabbed at the mysterious figure with his sword.

But the figure only flickered and disappeared into the hallway.

"Brother Hu, is there a situation" Ji Wei, who heard the movement, walked out of the door from the next room and asked.

"I think I saw the murderer just now."

Hurayser cowered in the flickering light, cold sweat oozing from his body.

"Yes, why didn't I notice it" Ji Wei seemed to have disbelief in his eyes, and he strode towards Hu Lei.

Everything was back to normal, and the figure never appeared again.

Hu Lei didn't know how to answer, and began to wonder if it was his hallucination caused by nervousness.

"It's you who are suspicious," Ji Wei sneered, pointing to the zombie-like standing puppet in the room and said, "Look, he didn't react at all." ” "Maybe I'm nervous."

Hu Lei responded with a smile, but he still couldn't relax himself.

"Don't mess with yourself."

Ji Wei patted him on the shoulder with concern and went back to the room to rest.

"Is it really a hallucination" Hu Lei raised his foot and stepped into the threshold with trepidation, and the situation in front of him made him almost scream, but he finally held back, and closed the door as fast as he could. i0 t1706231537:
