If you think about it carefully, the reason why Bai Mo insists on going to Hidden Beast Mountain is because he hates the note in the invitation.
And as luck would have it, the S-class transcendent who appeared out of nowhere had made it clear not long ago that he came here precisely because he hated the invitation.
The reason why I came here is because of the influence of the two events of the gravekeeper and Xiao Yinzhi who turned into a dog.
As for the red-eyed girl named Mu and this strange bride, although it is unclear whether there is any connection between their appearance and the hateful invitation, I think there is some connection.
...After all, under normal circumstances, it is impossible for such a being to appear in a D-level restricted area.
And if all this is really as I guessed, and the gathering of people here now is not an accident of fate, but someone's deliberate guidance and arrangement, then... what is the purpose of the people behind the scenes?
And what role does hating invitations play in this?
The Invitation of Hate is just an ordinary D-level Taboo Sequence, and it is unlikely to have a strong impact. But if there is anything noteworthy about the Taboo Sequence D-Invitation of Hate...
Lu Zhan instantly remembered the third note on hating invitations——
"Note 3, remember not to try to read the information in the invitation to hate - it is judged that once you do so, it means you have truly accepted the invitation from a certain being. Tests have shown that that is the fastest way to despair and death.
One of the ways.”
Someone exists...
Lu Zhan knew very well the consequences of rashly checking the information in the hateful invitation.
Once someone tries to view the content of the abomination invitation, the person will be forcibly dragged into the invitation by the hair emerging from the invitation, their bones will be crushed, and they will die in endless pain and torture.
Even if he does not die, the viewer will never appear in this world again, because there is a high probability that he has been dragged into an unknown realm.
Bai Mo is an exception.
He checked the information in the hateful invitation, but he didn't receive any harm from the hateful invitation.
Not only that, according to the artist's description, when Bai Mo took out the note, the information content in the invitation seemed to have changed in an instant, such as changing the invitation address on the note, causing Bai Mo to change his attention to Masked Beast Mountain.
.
Based on his previous judgment, Lu Zhan always thought that the being behind the hateful invitation was afraid of the tombkeeper, so he thought of a way to send him to a D-level restricted area to avoid harm to himself...
But now it seems that the truth may not be as simple as I first thought.
What a coincidence.
Lu Zhan will carefully think of everything he has experienced since he came to Masked Beast Mountain——
As soon as I reached the mountainside, I saw a corpse of unknown origin. The corpse had a memory stuffed into it for no reason, and it happened to be related to the tomb keeper.
Then he met a weird old beggar and learned some of the information he wanted.
And after that, he saw the information he hoped to find on Chilu, which happened to be the supplement to the scene Xia Yuxi had seen in the mind of the tombkeeper...
He even met Mu, the protagonist in that past, the child of evil spirits and humans, and once learned a lot of information from him.
Everything went too smoothly, at least for Lu Zhan. Although there were some hiccups along the way, he seemed to have been making his dreams come true along the way.
But what he didn't know was that other people's wishes would also come true after they came to Hidden Beast Mountain——
Just now, Bai Mo found the "inviter" he was longing for as he wished.
Gu Yan also found the hateful invitation he had been looking for for a long time.
Mu Ze found the tombkeeper as he wished.
The destinies of everyone seemed to suddenly intersect at a certain moment, and they gathered in this restricted area called Beast Mountain...
Could they really have inadvertently accepted an invitation from some being?
It was dark outside the house, and Lu Zhan felt a little uneasy for no reason.
In the guest room, the candle light flickers on and off, the life and death candle burns rapidly, and the death candle shortens much faster than the live candle, which seems to have determined the next direction of the matter——
Yang Xiaowan said that if the death candle burned out first, she would kill Gu Yan and Han Xue.
But no one cared about this at the moment, everyone was attracted by the thing in her hand.
Bai Mo took the invitation from Yang Xiaowan and said in shock: "This thing... was sent by you?"
"My husband is really making a fuss. It's natural to entertain guests on the big day."
Yang Xiaowan didn't know why everyone was suddenly so shocked, so she asked, "Is there anything wrong?"
"Of course it's not right..."
In fact, there was one thing that Bai Mo couldn't figure out, and that was the origin of the invitation he picked up in Buyu Village.
Even if he was quite sure that everything on this mountain was just a role-playing game, how should he explain the invitation he picked up?
Even if he really won the prize and was qualified to experience this live-action scripted killing, it would be impossible for Lu Jun to leave an invitation for himself in Buyu Village in advance, right?
You must know that his name was specifically written on the invitation. If someone picks it up...
He had wanted to ask Lu Zhan before, but he never found the opportunity.
Bai Mo looked at Yang Xiaowan, who was wearing a red hijab, and asked suspiciously, "Did you know me before?"
"That's not true, but this does not affect the slave's admiration for her husband..."
"Then do you know my name?" Bai Mo asked again.
"Of course I know."
"Did you write the invitation to me?"
Yang Xiaowan shook her head slightly: "I don't understand what my husband means."
"I picked up an invitation card exactly like the one you have before, with my name written on it, otherwise I wouldn't be here."
Yang Xiaowan was stunned for a moment, then quickly shook her head and said: "This is impossible."
"Army."
Bai Mo glanced at Lu Zhan and motioned for him to take out the invitation.
Under everyone's gaze, Lu Zhan knew that there was no possibility of hiding it, so he had no choice but to take out the hateful invitation from his pocket.
It was a rectangular red invitation with the word '囍' printed in gold on one side, and a twisted crying face on the other side, as if it had been scribbled on by a child.
Hate the invitation!
Gu Yan stared closely at the red invitation. Finding this thing was the purpose of his trip. He thought it would take more time, but he didn't expect that he was so lucky that he found it so quickly.
However, he was not in a hurry to snatch it. Like everyone else, he also wanted to understand the current situation first.
Hanxue had the same idea.
Of course they already knew what an invitation to hate looked like, otherwise they wouldn't have been so surprised when they saw the invitation before -
Why is the invitation in the bride's hand almost identical to the Hate Invitation?
No one can understand it.
On the other side, Yang Xiaowan, who had been staring at the invitation for a long time without saying a word, seemed to be in a daze. After a while, she smiled bitterly and said: "I see, it seems that you are all guests."
"Sure enough, it's all fate..."
There was an imperceptible loneliness in her tone.
"What do you mean..."
Bai Mo was about to ask, but suddenly, something unexpected happened to everyone.
I saw that all the candles in the room, including the living candles and the dead candles, were suddenly extinguished, and the entire guest room was instantly plunged into darkness.
At the same time, Lu Zhan felt pain in his palm, as if he had been bitten by something, and unconsciously dropped the hateful invitation to the ground.
The next second, a large amount of hair suddenly surged out of the hateful invitation, climbing and entwining along the wall like tiny black snakes, quickly covering the entire guest room.
It’s like releasing some kind of signal——
In the twilight, the entire Mountain Hidden Beast suddenly shook, the mountain road cracked and collapsed, the trees broke and collapsed, and the beasts howled continuously.
On the crazy road, all the illusory scenes of the story collapsed. Both the mansion and the library disappeared. Looking around, it was desolate, only the guest room wrapped in black hair remained.
The sound of water was gurgling, and something seemed to be reviving beneath the mountain.
…
"What happened? Was there an earthquake?"
When the sudden change occurred, there were two figures running wildly on the forest path of the Hidden Beast Mountain.
To be precise, there is one person and one dog.
Xia Yuxi was running down the mountain with the blind big yellow dog, but suddenly, the ground began to shake violently, and she had to stop, and then she managed to stabilize her body.
On both sides of the path, the towering trees were trembling constantly. Countless green beasts seemed to feel something and scattered like crazy, making various wailing sounds. However, no matter how far they ran, they all ended up without exception.
He fell to the ground, losing all vitality.
There were also wild beasts that did not run away. They stood still in place, with a humanized look of relief on their faces, quietly welcoming their fate of death.
And with the death of these beasts, the atmosphere of the entire Beast Hiding Mountain seemed to have suddenly changed, becoming particularly depressing.
Seeing such drastic changes in Hidden Beast Mountain, Xia Yuxi looked worried. She turned back to look at the three-way intersection in the distance. What Lu Zhan said when he found her before suddenly appeared in her mind -
"You take this guy out of the restricted area quickly. Something big is likely to happen later. If you find anything wrong after that, call for support as soon as possible."
Xia Yuxi was not a fool. She quickly realized something was wrong after going down the road of madness. She thought she had entered a place similar to a false illusion. She also instantly realized that the Lu Zhan she met at first was fake.
But because she couldn't find a way to escape and was not sure that she could defeat those guys, Xia Yuxi did not choose to take action. She could only find ways to deal with those false things and delay as much time as possible.
Finally, the real Lu Zhan appeared.
Not only did he rescue Xia Yuxi, he also handed Xiao Yinzhi over to her, told her that he would go look for Bai Mo next, and asked her to leave Hidden Beast Mountain as soon as possible.
Because something big is likely to happen later——
But now, the Beast Hidden Mountain suddenly experienced such a violent earthquake, and all the beasts died. Is this the "big event" that Lu Zhan said?
Xia Yuxi looked at the countless corpses of green beasts in the forest, and gradually felt uneasy in her heart...
What happened to this restricted area?
She didn't hesitate and was about to run down the mountain with the big yellow dog, but she found that the big yellow dog suddenly seemed to be in pain. His whole body was twitching constantly and he was lying on the ground unable to move.
The ground was still shaking. She quickly found a relatively safe place, took off the muzzle on the big yellow dog's head, and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
"I feel so much pain."
The big yellow dog uttered human words, and his voice sounded particularly painful.
"It's okay, just hold on, I'll take you down the mountain right away, and I'll find someone to rescue you soon."
"Thank you, no need."
Xiao Yinzhi laughed to himself, "I don't want to find a veterinarian to treat me."
Yes, as early as yesterday, Xiao Yinzhi already knew that he had turned into a dog, but he had forgotten the reason for it, so he followed Lu Zhan and the others to the Mountain of Beasts.
He also wants to know the truth.
Who would have thought that after he came here, he seemed to be just a soy sauce guy and was about to die without doing anything.
"I'm not a veterinarian. I will find an extraordinary person with healing ability to treat you." Xia Yuxi said.
"No need, I can feel it, I'm about to die."
Xiao Yinzhi shook his head and chuckled, "It would be better to die. Unknowingly, I have lived for so long..."
Xia Yuxi looked at him and felt that at this moment, the expression on his face was almost the same as that of the dead beasts just now.
"I remembered something." Xiao Yinzhi was lying on the ground and suddenly said weakly, "Can you see any wild beasts on this mountain?"
"There are, many green beasts..."
Xia Yuxi said, as if she had vaguely guessed something.
As expected, Xiao Yinzhi said: "They are actually just like me. They were once human beings, but they became like this because of the price they paid."
"What price?"
"I don't remember." Xiao Yinzhi shook his head, was silent for a long time, and suddenly asked, "Do you still remember the story I told you?"
Xia Yuxi was stunned: "What's your story with the guide dog?"
"Yes, even now I still refuse to believe that Panda can hurt people. I feel that other people are pouring dirty water on it. I even think that the guys on the Internet are too stupid and will take whatever others say."
"As expected, people always only want to believe what they want to see, so why don't I do the same?"
Xia Yuxi didn't know why the other party said this suddenly, and asked: "So did your dog really hurt someone?"
"I don't know, but I believe it won't... What do you think?"
"I have no idea."
"You and the police officer named Lu are indeed too gentle."
Xiao Yinzhi smiled, "I remembered what that guy said to me, and he woke me up all of a sudden -"
"'You are just a blind man. You should be the one who can't see the truth the most, but you have the nerve to keep saying that someone else framed your dog? Have you ever thought that you have been believing the guy you want to see?
In fact, it’s you who is the loser.'"
Xia Yuxi thought about the meaning of this sentence for a moment, and suddenly asked: "Who is 'that guy'?"
"I don't know, I can't see him after all, but from the sound of his voice he is a man, he shouldn't be very old."
Xiao Yinzhi said, "That guy told me that as long as I am willing to do him a small favor, everything can be as I want it to be and let me live in the truth that I expect."
"A little favor..." Xia Yuxi murmured.
"Yes, he said that if one day I hear the sound of water, then I will surrender."
"What?"
Xia Yuxi was shocked.
Could it be that... Xiao Yinzhi's appearance was not accidental, but was deliberately arranged by someone!
She quickly asked: "Did he say anything else? What was his purpose in asking you to surrender?"
"I have no impression, but the man did say one thing, but I only regarded it as comforting me——"
"I have been looking for a way to resurrect the dead. If I find it one day, I can experiment with your dog first. If it works, it can be considered a good thing."
…
Two lights suddenly appeared in the darkness. Upon closer inspection, they turned out to be two candlelights that barely flickered.
It’s the life candle and the death candle again.
Bai Mo came back to his senses and took a closer look. He found that he was in a small and closed black space. The walls were a little weird and seemed to be made of hair. He touched them and found that the walls were cold and hard. In some places
It seems a bit sharp.
There are walls like this everywhere, and there is no trace of a door at all.
The air was extremely quiet, and it seemed that Bai Mo was the only living person.
He looked around and saw Yang Xiaowan in a bright red wedding dress sitting next to him, but motionless, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Where is this place? Where are the others?" he asked quickly.
"cage."
After a long silence, Yang Xiaowan replied in a low voice.
"Cage?" Bai Mo was stunned, "Where is the exit?"
"Husband, you are joking. Since it is a prison, how can there be an exit?" Yang Xiaowan's voice was a little strange.
"Don't be ridiculous, it seemed like there was an earthquake just now. We have to get out of here as soon as possible."
"That's fine, but everything has to wait until the candle of life and death burns out."
