Chapter 17 Drunken Beauty of Xiangxi (17)(1/3)
Everyone's expressions were ugly. The twelve coffins scattered in the main room were different from before they left, and their positions had changed.
The most horrifying thing is that it turns out that there are corpses in the four empty coffins!
Lin Xi hurriedly squeezed over to find the coffin of his body. Soon he breathed a sigh of relief and found it. Lin Xi had paid attention before and marked the coffin. As long as he found the coffin, the body must be the right one——
Lin Xi's expression suddenly froze, and the hand holding the coffin trembled slightly.
Why, why does the body in the coffin seem to have changed?
It was clear that Lin Xi had personally ordered the cinnabar and tied the ribbons in the same position as in his memory. But he just felt that something was wrong with this corpse!
"Yes, it's resentment."
A low-pitched male voice with little confidence rang out. The speaker was a middle-aged man who had always been submissive and did not even dare to look at others.
Feeling everyone's gaze, he shrank even more, stumbling like a mouse hiding in the darkness:
"Resentment and illusions confuse people's eyes. Only by breaking through the illusion can it be done."
"Yu Hean looked at it with cow's tears. These corpses are covered with a layer of thick black resentment."
Miao Fangfei said solemnly.
[Name: Tears of the Old Scalper]
[Quality: Special]
[Function: Dropping cow’s tears can allow you to see another ‘world’]
[Note: Don’t use it as eye drops. If you drop too much, you will become an old scalper]
"The power of any props will be weakened in Drunken Beauty Xiangxi. Only special-level items can barely be used."
Hearing Miao Fangfei mention him, Yu and An lowered their heads further, their rough fingers uneasily picking at the seams of their trousers.
[Old scalper's repayment (blue title): You once prevented an old scalper from being killed and carefully raised it until it grew old. Good people are rewarded, and the soul of the old scalper has come to repay you! 】
With this title, Yu Hean can get a small bottle of old scalper's tears every week. Because of its high quality, he can still make ends meet in the beautiful Xiangxi.
"To break the illusion of resentment, we must find the core."
Xu Chen closed his eyes tightly while doing eye exercises, hissing and gasping for breath in pain. He used his eyes too much today and looked at them with too much resentment. The resentment in the room was so intense that he almost went blind temporarily. He had to get confirmation from Yu and An.
"We have to quickly find out which ones are the real corpses."
Hou Feihu said seriously: "It's almost twelve o'clock, we have to leave at nine o'clock in the evening."
His words made all the passengers feel heavy, but no one lost control of their emotions. Everyone knew that at this time, they needed to calm down even more. They hadn't finished preparing the corpse yet, so they had to spare this time.
"Five o'clock."
Miao Fangfei set the final time: "Before five o'clock, we have to confirm the body."
"At this time, everyone needs to work together."
Miao Fangfei's eyes glanced at everyone, and she really had the spirit of a captain. She solemnly said: "We are now grasshoppers on a rope. We are all prosperous, and we are all damaged."
Yes, that's what they say, but it's not easy to find it. Everyone actually marked the coffin, but the problem now is that they can't confirm whether the body in the coffin is the one they handled.
That subtle sense of strangeness cannot be overcome, making people unable to make a decision.
"If it really doesn't work, we can only deal with these twelve corpses and drive them out."
There is no other way.
"They want to leave too."
After several rounds of searching, the clueless fat man squatted at the door smoking. Xu Chen walked over to him tiredly and breathed a sigh of relief.
Yu He'an only had three drops of cow's tears in a bottle. To use them up, he had to rely on Xu Chen's title [Resentment Perception]. Xu Chen was always mentally tense and consumed a lot of money.
"Yeah, who doesn't want to leave this crappy place."
The fat man pursed his lips, unwilling to throw away the butt of the cigarette, holding it in his mouth and sucking it.
"Maybe those evil things lured us there on purpose."
What they were talking about was the group of rotting corpses in the small courtyard. Although Lin Xi and the other three were in their past, from the time they were haunted by hallucinations, to the screams that attracted all the passengers to rescue them, no one was guarding the main house, and then there were too many corpses in the house.
Four bodies. Various situations. It is impossible to say that there is no connection among them.
The corpses in the courtyard have been tortured by wind and rain for a long time, and they also want to leave and get out.
The only way out is to drive away the corpses of the passengers!
"Would you like one?"
The fat man handed Xu Chen a cigarette. Xu Chen thanked him tiredly and took the cigarette. The fat man took the initiative to light it for him.
Nicotine relaxes the tense nerves. Xu Chen rarely smokes, so he chokes and coughs. The fat man hurriedly pats him on the back.
"Thank you, Brother Wang."
The friendship over a cigarette brought Xu Chen a lot closer to Wang Pengpai. The fat man was generous and enthusiastic, which made Xu Chen subconsciously trust him. When he was hesitant and entangled in his heart, Xu Chen subconsciously came to the door.
.
"Xiaochen is worried?"
The fat man patted his back, handed him a bottle of water, and said sincerely: "Brother likes to nag, so don't find it annoying Xiaochen. It's the same as Team Miao said, we are now grasshoppers on a rope, jumping around, dead
Ah, it’s all in Yi Kuai. If you don’t say anything else, if you have any problems, Brother Wang, I will definitely not ignore it!”
The fat man patted his chest and promised, and Xu Chen somehow felt that he was trustworthy.
If he was really holding it in his chest, Xu Chen didn't know who to talk to except Fatty.
"If, I mean if, I have a way to find the core of resentment."
Xu Chen lowered his voice, hesitated, and spoke the secret, but the words became smoother and smoother.
"But if I use this method, people won't be able to move."
Xu Chen calmed down, took out something, quickly looked at Wang Pengpai, and said decisively:
"Unless someone can help me dispose of the body and carry it on my back until I recover, I won't use it."
"My dear, you actually have this!"
Even though he was a well-informed fat man, he almost screamed when he saw what Xu Chen took out.
[Name: * * * double-sided tape]
[Quality: unknown]
【Function: Can bond everything!】
[Time limit: 1 hour]
"This, this, this, this, do you want to use this?"
The fat man stuttered in disbelief, his little eyes widened, his fat fingers like little carrots trembling, as if he saw a cow chewing a peony, and he was so angry: "You, you want to use this?"
"yes."
Xu Chen was also a little reluctant to give up, but he didn't notice the fat man's abnormal excitement: "I asked the hotel to check it out, and it can even bond and fuse titles... I have two similar titles, one blue and one green, and they will advance when they are glued together."
[Resentment Perception (green title): You have some kind of eye disease and can see inexplicable gray energy! Be careful, the more people you know, the faster they will die~]
[Death Sense (blue title): You suffer from a certain eye disease and can see the vitality and death energy of living people! Be careful, maybe the person with more death energy will be stronger! 】
"When these two titles are combined, they should become the purple title 'Perceiver'. Then I can see the source of the resentment in detail. Maybe I can even tell which body is our corpse through the thickness of the resentment."
Xu Chen smiled nervously: "But I am not strong enough, and I will still get a headache when using the first two titles. If I use the purple title across levels, I will definitely faint from the pain."
"Wait a minute, let me find Team Miao. I have to tell her about this."
The fat man said feebly and waved his hands as if he was exhausted. He endured it again and again, but he still couldn't help it and asked: "How did you get this prop?"
"Is it precious?"
Fatty's attitude also made Xu Chen feel it. He was not afraid, and generously showed the 'double-sided tape' again: "This was accidentally opened when I opened the blind box in the hotel."
If a passenger experiences all the items during a trip, he or she will receive a "blind box" reward at the end of the trip. It may be a treasure or worthless trash.
No matter what it is, the items from the blind box in the hotel cannot be traded or snatched. Xu Chen is not afraid of fat people snatching them. But this item cannot be sold. You have to use it yourself in the end anyway, so just use it when you need it most.
"You, me, oh, Xiao Xu, fat brother, let me tell you the truth, this thing is very precious, very, very precious, it can even stick to the purple title!"
The fat man became serious and said seriously: "If you have the purple title of 'Perceiver' and the purple title of 'Observer' in the future, and you can even temporarily get the orange title of 'Eye of the Sky' by gluing them together, then, that's..."
"Brother Wang knows a lot."
Xu Chen sighed, but his expression became calmer, and he shook his head with a smile: "The orange title is too far away from me, even the purple title. I will probably die before that."
Good things are only good when he is alive. After death, they are worthless to him.
Xu Chen knew that he was worth a lot of money. Now he might not be able to survive even the drunken beauty of Xiangxi, so how could he dare to think about the future. But the fat man's words finally touched Xu Chen's heartstrings.
When looking for Miao Fangfei, Xu Chen couldn't help but think that he had never heard of the orange title. You must know that the titles above the purple title are mysterious and unknown. Only the great tourists and tour guides at the top of the pyramid can have them.
Xu Chen had only heard that the captain of the legendary strongest brigade seemed to have an eye in his forehead that could see through everything.
Is that the Eye of Heaven?
