Chapter 41 Alice's Hell 12 - The Beheaded Man(1/2)
"Peng!"
The debris placed by the bathroom door was kicked over, making a muffled sound.
Yu Xing had already finished what he wanted to say (threat). No matter what Han Zhiyong's reaction was in the cabinet, he quickly bent down and slid behind the nearest bathtub. From the corner of his eye, he saw the dark figure outside just coming in.
That's a man with a crooked neck.
To be precise, it was a decapitated male ghost whose neck was cut off and tilted to one side, leaving only a layer of skin as a connection.
The eyes of the decapitated ghost were streaming with blood and tears, but their eyes were extremely sensitive and moved around in their sockets, as if they were searching for living people around them.
[You discovered the "Decapitated Man", the ghost notice has been updated]
【Ghost 3: The Beheaded Man】
[Corresponding to tourists: those who cut their throats]
[Description/Source: 1. A man with a broken neck. It can be seen that the man had a handsome face in life. 2. Its eyes are very flexible. I don’t know what will happen to the person who is discovered by it. 3. Warm reminder,
It is not the only one, but one of the group.】
[Attack method/Special ability:???]
[Solution:???]
[Notification progress: 40%]
Yu Xing glanced at it and instantly recognized that it was Han Xinyi's corresponding ghost. Since the existing information could indeed support this conclusion, the system gave him the corresponding tourist as confirmed information.
There was another piece of information on the notice that caught Yu Xing's attention, that warm reminder.
The decapitated man is not the only one.
In other words, in this castle, the "Decapitated Man" is a type of ghost, there are many of them, not just one.
Tsk tsk, isn’t this considered a scam? We agreed on eight people and eight ghosts, but one of the ghosts was waiting with a group of companions.
He squinted his eyes and quietly looked at the decapitated man.
At this time, the severed head was facing away from him. Yu Xing looked at it more wildly, and saw that its walking posture was very strange, and each foot was very crooked, as if the foot was not a flat open space, but a rugged place.
Similar.
The decapitated man moved around in the bathroom, everywhere except the central bathtub.
Yu Xing listened to its footsteps and quietly adjusted his position to ensure that he would not be discovered.
Zeng Lai on the other side breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he was finally hiding.
He didn't know what Xing's smile just now meant. Because of the angle, he didn't see what Xing was doing when he stayed by the closet. He only vaguely heard a few words between Xing and the middle-aged man.
The content was unclear, but Zeng Lai suddenly realized that Xing and the man and the girl with a sweet smile should be acquainted.
But this is not the point. The top priority is to avoid the search of this decapitated ghost.
However, what makes people's expressions sour is that the decapitated ghost seems to be sure that there is someone here, and keeps walking around but refuses to leave.
The four people hiding behind the bathtub had to constantly adjust their positions without being discovered, and their hearts beat faster for a while.
Soon, they realized that this was not going to work.
Several times, the decapitated man stood next to the bathtub. If he were taller, he would have been able to see the living person behind the bathtub.
It really doesn't seem to be planning to leave, and it looks like it will hang around here forever.
"No, it's too dangerous to stay here. You have to get out first." Once again dodging the near-decapitated man, Zeng Lai mouthed to Huai who was standing aside.
Both of them were only wearing bath towels and had no time to change clothes, but in critical moments, they didn't care whether their clothes were neat or tidy.
Huai nodded and answered in the same way: "Where's Xing?"
Zeng Lai thought for a while: "If he sees us running away, he should follow us."
The two of them reached a consensus, and as soon as they spoke, they took advantage of the decapitated man to look towards Yu Xing and quickly moved to the back of the bathtub, which was closer to the door.
The water mist provides a certain degree of concealment, but it also leaves a thin layer of water on the ground. If you step on it with bare feet, it's impossible not to make a sound.
It was at this time that Hye followed.
He probably didn't grasp the timing well and was a little anxious. When he saw both people moving, he also ran behind the next bathtub.
"Ah... who... who...!!" The decapitated man turned his head suddenly, his eyes widened, and his eyeballs almost fell from their sockets, which was very scary.
It seems to have been in anger. Whether it was howling at the beginning or finally speaking some human language, its tone was miserable and shrill, just like the last struggle before death.
It is not easy to hide two adult men in a bathtub, so although the noise made by Hysteria was louder, what the decapitated man noticed was the place where Zeng Lai and Huai were staying. It stiffened and stepped over, with its head falling next to it.
With a flick, it felt like it could be completely broken at any time. If it approached with purpose, it was almost inevitable that they would be seen.
Zeng Lai heard the footsteps getting closer and closer, gritted his teeth, stretched out his hand, and threw a dice.
The dice rolled out in the mist, spinning on the ground for a long time until they rolled in front of the wardrobes, attracting the beheaded man's attention.
"...Who is it?" it repeated this sentence and walked to the closet.
It's now!
Zeng Lai and Huai took this opportunity to rush outside the bathroom and successfully escaped.
Not to be outdone, Yi escaped almost at the same time. His leg was blocked by a debris. He kicked out in panic, and the debris made a muffled sound.
Yu Xing watched coldly as the decapitated man roared angrily, and then he chased the three men, bringing up a gust of cold wind.
For a moment, he, who had no time to move, was briefly safe.
Oops...the hysteria has gone a bit too far.
It's too obvious to try to attract ghosts to chase gamblers.
It seems that Yi is really targeting Zeng Lai, but Yu Xing doesn't know the reason.
With this in mind, he stuck his head out from behind the bathtub and glanced at the dice that had stopped spinning.
Zeng Lai's dice is a bit strange. The points on each side are as red as blood. At this moment, the solitary "one" point is pointing upward, as if it heralds the arrival of some kind of bad luck.
The next moment, the dice disintegrated on the spot and scattered into a small handful of ashes.
Yu Xing whispered: "It seems this is a sacrifice...Does the gambler know that he threw one out?"
This was not something he had to worry about for the time being. He didn't know if the decapitated man would come back. In order not to be stuck in a closed space like the bathroom, he planned to leave quickly.
At the bathroom door, Yu Xing seemed to feel something and looked back.
While everyone's attention was attracted by the decapitated man, no one noticed that the wardrobe had changed.
The wood grain on the cabinet is twisted, gradually forming a vague human face.
Traces of dark red blood seeped out from the person's face. Seeing Yu Xing turn around, the person's face squirmed and put on a laughing expression.
It's like saying...thank you for the lock, but why don't you come in yourself?
The ghost notice was not updated, so Yu Xing smiled and ignored it.
Han Zhiyong was locked by him and couldn't get out for the time being, and Bai Mian hadn't left the cabinet yet. He didn't know if he was too timid. After thinking about it, he could only wish the ghost in the cabinet to attack Han Zhiyong first, who had to work hard to get out.
Already.
That's right, Yu Xing had determined before the decapitated man came that the deducer's entry into the closet would trigger an unknown ghost.
The blood stains in other closets that were previously unlocked were the clues that the deduction gave them, very obvious clues.
——If you enter the cabinet, you will be attacked by ghosts. In the end, there will be only a pool of blood and no bones left.
Of course, under normal circumstances, the deducer would not lead the dog so easily.
After all, if there is a sacrifice nearby, you will have some resistance, unless you are unlucky, there is no sacrifice to help you escape, and you happen to encounter the corresponding ghost, and you are unable to resist.
Therefore, Yu Xing didn't think that Han Zhiyong would die in the closet. He just consumed a wave of the opponent's sacrifices and props, causing some trouble to the opponent, and achieved his goal.
The only thing that was a little unexpected was that he didn't expect that ghosts of different types could actually cooperate with each other.
For example, the human-faced ghost in the cabinet will imitate the ridiculous voice and use the arrival of the decapitated man to lure the deducers into the cabinet in panic to achieve the killing conditions.
If Han Zhiyong and Bai Mian want to blame Huang Bai later, Huang Bai may die of injustice.
Yu Xing estimated that she still didn't know what happened in the men's bathroom.
