Lin Mo is very strong, and with the blessing of the curse, ordinary ghosts can't really defeat him.
A big man is pressing down on a ghost. This picture must be very gorgeous. Unfortunately, no one can see it. This is the case in the dark dimension. This is a world without light.
Can only rely on touch.
Just because he was not afraid of people seeing him, Lin Mo was not embarrassed at all.
At this moment, the cold corpse beneath him began to tremble.
Maybe it's fear.
I feel like Lin Mo will do something terrible to it.
Lin Mo changed his posture, stood up, pressed the other person's neck with one hand, lowered his head and said: "I told you not to be afraid. Why are you shaking so hard? Can you understand what I said? If you can, just reach out and pat me. If you can’t, there’s no need to take pictures.”
First, you need to determine whether the corpse can speak. If it is a brainless monster that cannot speak, then there is no need to keep it, just kill it directly.
If they can communicate, Lin Mo plans to understand some things.
For example, what is this place?
Another example, how to get out and so on.
After waiting for a short while, the other party reached out and patted Lin Mo's arm twice.
Good luck.
Find someone you can communicate with.
Lin Mo asked if it could talk.
Then, I heard a gurgling sound coming from the corpse's throat. It was probably because he had not spoken for a long time and was unfamiliar. After a while, he heard the sound coming from the other party's throat.
"Don't, don't eat me!"
Lin Mo understood.
Just make the sound a little lower and listen closer.
Lin Mo knew about ghosts eating ghosts. He had heard it more than once when he was in the ghost town. Moreover, every time Xiaoyu transformed, it was also because she swallowed the ghosts that allowed her to transform.
If nightmares and ghosts are regarded as creatures in the dark world, then eating each other is a way for them to 'evolve' and survive.
Animals in nature, including humans, need to eat to survive; the same goes for creatures in the dark world.
This is a special ecosystem, a way of survival, which may contain some subjects and theories that can be explored, but Lin Mo is not a biologist, and this is not what he cares about.
"Don't worry, I'm a very picky eater. I won't eat people like you." Lin Mo shaped himself into a terrifying ghost king-level existence.
Sure enough, after saying this, the other party seemed to be relieved.
"Then why are you arresting me?" This was the second sentence the other party said.
This sentence was clearer than what he had said just now, but his voice was still small, hoarse, and the tone was not accurate. Lin Mo listened carefully and analyzed it before he understood what the other party meant.
"I want to ask you about something." Lin Mo was not going to beat around the bush, it was his character to tell the truth: "What is this place?"
It's possible that the corpse didn't expect Lin Mo to ask such a question.
It paused for three to five seconds before making a hoarse sound.
"maze!"
The communication with this corpse was not smooth. After all, it was not a human being, and its ability to speak was about the same as that of a two-year-old child. Regardless of whether it was stumbling or stumbling, in short, Lin Mo probably figured out what was going on.
This dark place is called a 'maze'.
Since it is a maze, it is of course difficult to get out. Let’s call this corpse the streaking man.
Lin Mo came up with the name without consulting the other party.
Who made him wear no clothes?
The streaking man said that it had been trapped here for a long time, that it was desperate, scared, and had no hope at all. In short, all negative emotions could be heard in its words.
Lin Mo said, since you are so desperate, so scared, and there is no hope, then why don't you die?
The streaking man remained silent.
Lin Mo felt that he was right to ask.
If you are really desperate, then the other person who was held down by you just now will not say 'don't eat me', but will say 'eat me'.
You see, the difference between one word and the other means a huge difference.
Perhaps because Lin Mo had revealed his thoughts and he felt a little embarrassed, the streaking man remained silent for a long time.
Lin Mo didn't have time to waste time with it, so he slapped his face. Now, the streaking man started talking again.
It said that it was not afraid of death because it was already a dead person.
"I do feel hopeless, fear and helplessness are tormenting me all the time. I can die completely, but I have to do one thing before I die completely."
"What's the matter?" Lin Mo asked.
"I seem to have forgotten something very important. This thing is more important than my life. I must remember it. And I know that this memory is hidden in the maze. I want to find it. If I don't find it, I don't want to
Completely destroyed."
The streaking man said this very seriously.
Even the enunciation and pronunciation are much more standard than before.
From this point of view, it seems that the other party is not lying, and why does the other party's situation feel so familiar?
Isn't this your own situation?
Very similar.
They have lost part of their memory and can't remember it alive or dead.
The streaking man said that his own memory is hidden somewhere in this maze, but what about his own memory?
Lin Mo was thinking a lot at this moment.
The past events are related to Mok Wenting. In fact, some of the memories I lost are not only Liu Jia's, but also partly related to Mok Wenting.
And Mo Wenting is related to this maze.
Could it be that my own memories are also hidden here?
At first, you may think that this idea is a bit illogical, and Operation Pegasus is a whimsical idea; but if you carefully break down the things that have happened so far and sort them out, you will find that it is not impossible.
The point is to first figure out what this maze is all about.
Unfortunately, the streaking man could not give Lin Mo any answer to this question.
"So, you have been wandering in this maze, searching, but finding nothing?" Lin Mo asked the streaking man at this time.
The latter said yes.
"But I must continue to search, this is the meaning of my existence!"
The sentence "streaking man" actually has a bit of philosophy. If you think about it carefully, you can also adjust the tone to a higher level. Maybe some young literary and artistic people will like this tone.
Lin Mo disagreed.
But there was no reply.
It's that feeling where you know something is wrong, but you just can't put it into words.
It was a long time later that Lin Mo came up with a word to answer the doubts in his heart at that time.
That is a set of Buddhist theories.
lay down!
It's similar to the endless sea of suffering when you finally turn around.
There is a sense of Zen in it.
But even if Lin Mo thought of this and said it to the streaking man, the other party would most likely not listen.
Most people in this world are in pain without knowing it.
Including Lin Mo himself.
Lin Mo said, since you didn't find what you were looking for, you should also find some other things. After all, you have been wandering here for so long. It is impossible that you have never eaten pork and have not seen pigs running.
The streaking man asked Lin Mo what he meant by what he said. I couldn't understand him.
Lin Mo asked him if this maze has always been so dark?
The streaking man said yes.
Lin Mo thought for a while and suddenly shook the brick hammer.
The next moment, light appeared.
Lin Mo's hands were empty.
The streaking man disappeared, and the area around the light was still empty, as if it were endless, a world without an end, but also without an exit.
Lin Mo understood a little bit.
If Mo Wenting had drawn this maze in her notebook before, then Lin Mo found the reason why she painted the surrounding area so dark.
Because this maze only exists in the dark dimension.
If you look further, as long as there is light, you cannot leave the maze, and the only way to leave the maze is to follow the rules of the game here.
In other words, searching for a way out in absolute darkness.
The damnedest thing is, it's a maze.
For some road addicts, they can't find their way out even with a big 150-watt light bulb on, let alone in absolute darkness, which makes it impossible to remember the way.
So in the end, nine times out of ten, he is just like the streaking man, constantly groping in this maze of despair and terror, over and over again, endlessly.
And it's useless even if you have a light source.
As long as there is a light source, you will escape from the real 'maze'.
Just like just now, Lin Mo was clearly holding down the streaking man, but as soon as the fire lit up, the man disappeared.
In fact, it's not that the other party disappeared.
Instead, he disappeared into the dark maze.
Things were slowly smoothed out by Lin Mo. From the beginning, he knew nothing and was very blind. Now he at least understands the general situation and knows some rules in the maze.
And since it is a maze, there must be an exit.
It's just that it's more difficult to find the exit in absolute darkness.
In addition, the detachment characteristics of the light source made Lin Mo think of another use of it, which is to escape from absolute danger.
This is undoubtedly a very effective means of saving lives.
In absolute danger, you can get out of danger by lighting the flames.
This is great.
It can obviously give people a strong sense of security.
Coupled with Lin Mo's lack of fear and his attribute of being an advanced game player, this gave him the confidence to conquer the dark maze.
Blow out the flame.
Lin Mo fell into darkness again.
He touched around but found nothing. He called softly, but there was no response.
It looks like the streaking man ran away.
This is normal. I would have run away if I were the same person. Who would be waiting here stupidly?
But for Lin Mo, he already knew everything he needed to know from the streaking man, so it didn't make much sense for him to continue to stay.
All Lin Mo can do now is continue to explore around.
Gu Zhen
He lowered his body, maintaining a posture that could react immediately when encountering danger, and then stretched out his hand to explore forward.
Go forward slowly.
Try not to make any footsteps.
Because in an absolutely dark environment, vision is infinitely compressed, and hearing will become the best perception ability at this time.
If the footsteps are loud, they will be easily heard by other things.
The streaking man also said before that there are many monsters in this unknown dark maze, some of which are very dangerous and may lead to death.
Lin Mo will not belittle himself, but he will not be too arrogant either.
His fingers explored forward, and the next moment, he touched the wall.
When you touch it again, you can see that it is indeed a wall, with a gritty texture, a hard and cold texture, just like the walls of a dark basement, and you can even feel a unique dampness.
Lin Mo was leaning against the wall now.
Because he couldn't see anything, he couldn't even outline in his mind what the maze looked like.
At this time, he suddenly remembered something.
Mo Wenting's little notebook.
Could it be that the maze that she drew crazily five years ago is here? This is very likely, and more importantly, the maze that Mok Wenting drew is very clear.
Although it is very complicated, there are exits.
Lin Mo had read through that little book before.
I have an impression, but it is impossible to remember all the details. Fortunately, Lin Mo has a good memory. He recalled it carefully now to deepen this impression.
Maybe it will produce unexpected effects.
First of all, Mok Wenting drew almost an entire book of maze diagrams.
Then, if it was the same maze, there was no need for her to draw it so many times. In fact, Lin Mo could also see that the maze pattern on each piece of paper was different.
Lin Mo was not serious enough to carefully analyze the maze structure on each piece of paper. He did not have that much time at the time. In fact, Lin Mo simply looked at the overall structure.
The overall structure of every page drawn by Mok Wenting is circular.
If Mok Wenting drew a map of the dark maze, then it can be seen from this that the structure of the maze is circular and divided into many layers.
It's like a burger with many layers.
Stacked up and down.
Since it is a circle, it has a central axis.
Lin Mo remembered that Mo Wenting used a special technique to express the central axis position on the picture.
It's jagged.
Every page is the same.
Does this mean that the wall over there has spikes?
At least it's different from the normal wall texture.
In other words, as long as you touch a specific spiked wall, it means you have found the central axis of this layer of maze, which is the center position.
And the exit is right in the center.
At least that's what the pictures Lin Mo looked at were like this.
Although Mo Wenting spent dozens of pages and Lin Mo did not read them all, I can make a bold guess that the others should be similar and have the same structure.
This conclusion obviously refreshed Lin Mo's spirits.
Because this matter is of great significance.
If you don't know the structure of the maze at all and you wander around randomly, you will end up like a headless fly. Whether you can find the exit depends entirely on your luck.
The possibility may be only one in a few million.
It's like buying lottery tickets today.
If you want to go out (want to win the lottery), don't even think about it.
But if you know the approximate area where the exit is, it will be different. One is a headless fly, and the other is searching with purpose. Of course, the results will be different.
At that moment, Lin Mo began to explore around, and then slowly walked forward.
He was moving forward along the wall.
Just like a mouse in the dark, this is the best way to avoid getting lost.
In the process of groping, Lin Mo occasionally touched something on the wall.
Sometimes, there may be marks of different shades, as if something was forcibly cut open; sometimes, there may be some sticky liquid with a pungent smell.
Lin Mo felt that these should be some kind of signs.
It means something has been here before.
No matter what it is, they obviously want to rely on these marks to mark that they have arrived here. There should be only one purpose, and that is to escape from this place.
The streaking man said there were many people in this place, and it seemed that he was not lying.
Because just now, Lin Mo heard a very faint sound of footsteps walking past not far away.
Although you can't see it, you can tell from the subtle footsteps that the other party is also extremely cautious, maybe touching the wall on the other side while walking.
Lin Mo didn't know if the other party heard him, but he might have heard him, because the moment he got closer, the other party's footsteps stopped for a few seconds.
It was eerily quiet for those few seconds.
Perhaps it was because neither party made any moves, or perhaps this was an unspoken rule that everyone knew in the dark maze. In short, no one launched an attack.
Doubt, test, wait.
In the end, they got along well and left each other.
They don't know each other's appearance, maybe they are acquaintances, maybe they are friends, but at this moment, no one can see each other. Maybe this encounter is one of countless encounters in the future, or maybe they will never meet again in the future.
possible.
Lin Mo felt that in this dark maze, the unknown was brought to its extreme.
Although he was thinking and sighing, Lin Mo still maintained his rhythm and slowly groped forward along the wall. There was a corner in front of him. Lin Mo thought about it and continued walking along the wall to the left.
Although I had read Mo Wenting's little book before and I roughly knew the structure of the maze, the passages inside were extremely complicated, and even a thorough exploration might not be able to memorize them, not to mention that Lin Mo had only glanced at them casually before.
If he had known earlier, he would have written it down carefully.
At this moment, Lin Mo suddenly heard a scream.
Lin Mo stopped immediately.
He subconsciously wanted to shake it with a brick hammer to check, but thinking of the characteristics of the dark maze, he held back.
Here, light can only temporarily escape the dark maze, but for now, this is useless.
Judging from the sound, it was not far ahead, maybe a dozen meters away, but because there was no vision in the darkness, this feeling may not be accurate.
The screams lasted for a few seconds and then stopped abruptly.
The surroundings fell into silence again.
Lin Mo estimated that something in the maze must have hunted another thing. It may have been an inadvertent contact that triggered the fight.
The result must be that one party dies and the other party wins.
Lin Mo was originally not interested in this kind of thing, but the screams he heard sounded a bit like a streaking man.
After a while, Lin Mo slowly moved forward.
He is not afraid of fighting with other monsters. Lin Mo has never been afraid of anyone in fighting. The main reason is that he can't see anything, so even if he is confident, he has to be careful.
After walking more than ten steps along the wall, Lin Mo smelled a foul smell.
It was the smell of blood after a mutilated corpse.
Lin Mo had smelled it before.
He knelt down and touched the ground.
Touched blood.
Continuing forward, I touched the stump of a broken arm.
There were not many remaining limbs left, and it seemed that most of the body was eaten by something. Fortunately, Lin Mo touched the head.
From the protruding mouth and the familiar feel of the short head, Lin Mo was almost certain that the person dismembered on the ground was the streaking man.
The streaking man actually has a name.
It told Lin Mo that its name was Tan Tao, and this was the only thing it could remember. This guy had been searching in the maze for who knows how long, saying that he wanted to find his most precious memory.
Unfortunately, he was killed by another evil ghost.
Lin Mo continued to touch, intending to see what else he could touch.
The next moment, he touched a hand on the ground.
It was thick and cold, and the opponent immediately grabbed Lin Mo's wrist.
Then a huge force pulled Lin Mo over.
Even Lin Mo couldn't resist this kind of power. The next moment, it felt like a huge mouth biting Lin Mo's shoulder.
"Holy shit!"
Lin Mo cursed in his mind. The attack came very suddenly, and he almost subconsciously used the Iron Curse.
Not only the steel curse, but also other curses can be used together through physical contact.
In this situation, no matter what the opponent is, it has bad intentions. Lin Mo can even be sure that the thing that attacked him is the monster that killed the streaking man Tan Tao.
The steel curse can prevent Lin Mo's body from being easily bitten open by the opponent, and subsequent curses are enough to cause a certain degree of damage to the opponent.
If you are lucky, you can kill the enemy instantly.
But Lin Mo will not place his hope on luck.
When he takes action, he always seeks stability.
This pursuit of stability is a saturation attack.
There is no need to use a brick hammer, Lin Mo just uses his hands.
Under the curse of steel, his fingers were almost like steel bars. He first made a fist and punched forward.
No matter what you hit, attack continuously.
Find the opponent's weakness in the attack.
For example, eyes and throat.
Then he switched his fists to his fingers and poked him.
Poke hard, don't stop!
Normally, after Lin Mo's ax blows, the ordinary enemy would kneel down directly. But this encounter was obviously unusual. The opponent didn't say a word and struck Lin Mo's lower abdomen.
Poof!
It's a knife.
Pierced!
Lin Mo was so painful that he shed tears. He cursed, "I fucked your uncle."
Then he held the opponent's head and smashed it to the ground.
It's like smashing a watermelon.
While pounding in his heart, he muttered, what kind of knife did the other party use that could actually pierce the steel curse?
