"Why did you deliberately anger that NPC?" Huang Junjie asked on the way back to his residence.
"It's just out of curiosity," Xu Huo said, "I think he's not confused at all. Maybe he can really ask something."
"In the end, I didn't ask anything, and I offended people." Wan Zhikang glanced at him disdainfully, "You don't even have any brains when playing games."
"We are going to search the villa and find some food on the way, why not go on the same road?" Du Lanlan came over to invite them, mainly asking Huang Junjie.
Xu Huo didn't want to go with them, so he and Yuan Yao left first.
The villa is not small, but the only places they can find are rooms, restaurants, and warehouses. Except for these three places, everything is surrounded by dense green plants, making it difficult for people to walk smoothly inside.
Xu Huo measured the distance from the villa to the wooden house from a distance, and then went to look outside Huang Junjie's yard. Except for the fresh footprints left by the players who came one after another to check, there were no other traces.
Walking back to the front lobby, he picked up a handwritten guest registration book from behind the counter and flipped through it from cover to cover.
"Brother Xu, what's so interesting about the register? It's all full of unknown names." Yuan Yao failed to open the old computer and said disappointedly: "I also want to see if there is any news on the computer. If I can bring in my mobile phone,
Maybe we can find some information."
"There is no signal when you bring your mobile phone in. The game will not allow players to take advantage of loopholes." Xu Huo put down the registration book and walked to the warehouse. When Wang Wei came back from there just now, he mentioned that there was a lot of garbage piled inside that the guests did not take away.
In fact, they were some worthless items such as clothes and shoes of the deceased guests. Due to the special nature of the case, no one took over some of the personal belongings and could only pile them up in the warehouse.
The warehouse has been rummaged through in a mess. Books, notebooks and other written items that may contain useful information have all been looked through by players and are now scattered on the ground.
There was a pile of moldy newspapers in the corner of the warehouse. Xu Huo went straight over and started rummaging through it.
Yuan Yao rummaged through it for a while and couldn't stand the smell, so he turned to pick out the remaining items that other players had rummaged through.
"There is actually a diary here." Yuan Yao held up a green notebook, flipped through a few pages and was about to throw it away. "It was incoherent and I don't know what it was saying."
"Show me." Xu Huo raised his head and said.
Yuan Yao quickly took the diary over.
The beginning of the diary was normal. The person who wrote this diary was related to the current owner of the villa. He came to work very ambitious and wanted to make some achievements. However, with the appearance of the head-decapitating monster, his good wishes were completely shattered.
The following content was basically about the tragedy of each death and her fear that sooner or later she would be cursed and killed. Later, the entire article was filled with words such as curse, murder, and death. The content was messy, and it was obvious that the owner of the diary was somewhat mentally disturbed.
Not normal anymore.
"Find the newspapers that reported on the head-decapitating monster." Xu Huo said.
"It's been fifty years, how can I read so many newspapers..." Yuan Yao paused and said curiously: "There really isn't much about the head-decapitating monster."
"The villa was renovated due to a fire a few years ago, and the newspapers on the floor are from later times," Xu Huo said.
And the newspapers that came in bundles were just thrown here without being read.
It is impossible to describe the contents in the newspaper in too much detail, but some information and the contents of the diary can be matched.
"Brother Xu, what are you looking at?" Yuan Yao couldn't help but asked.
Xu Huo said: "Some of the people killed by the head-decapitating demon only lost their heads, while others had missing limbs. Judging from the time alone, there is a certain pattern."
"What does this mean?" Yuan Yao's expression suddenly changed, he patted his thigh and said, "Will the head-decapitating devil still eat people?"
Xu Huo glanced at him and Yuan Yao said, "You are busy, you are busy."
Xu Huo picked up a pen and imitated the diary owner's handwriting to add a few sentences to the lines.
"Anyone who touches the statue will die..." Yuan Yao watched him add words to the diary and said in surprise: "Why do you do this?"
"Double insurance." Xu Huo held the diary under his arm and said, "Let's go and find the statue of the head-decapitating devil."
In the cafeteria, other players are taking a rest.
They spent half a day searching through all the possible hiding places inside and outside the villa. They even checked the mirrors and wardrobes in the room to confirm that there could be no secret passages or secret rooms.
"Fortunately, there is a small supermarket next to the restaurant, otherwise we wouldn't even have anything to eat." Liu Yuanyuan said to the fans: "We think that the beheading monster is probably hiding in the woods outside."
"I think so too." Abel held the cross in his hand, "We will go to the woods later."
"You have to go, but I won't go." Wan Zhikang patted his belly after eating and drinking, "The beheading demon has killed so many people without being caught. It must not be something ordinary people can deal with. Anyway, the game only requires players to survive.
After five days, why take the risk?"
"That's true." Wang Wei pointed to the fog outside, "It looks like it's at night in broad daylight. What if we run into the head-decapitating demon?"
"Afraid of hammers!" Zhang Xiong slapped the table, "With a dozen of us, can't we defeat a head-decapitating demon?"
"Evolution is one thing, but it's not like you haven't seen that there are supernatural powers in the copy of the Head-Beheading Demon. If it were really that easy to fight against the Head-Beheading Demon, the game would not give you a survival mission." Wang Wei
Then he turned to Du Lanlan and Xia Guo, "It's not safe for two female players to live alone. Don't argue with Wan Zhikang. It's better for all of us to stay together tonight."
"Can you talk?" Wan Zhikang sat up immediately, "I don't care about two women, but you still want to get in touch with each other? I don't have the time to bring two people back... Isn't there an elite here?
?He can come up."
Huang Junjie said solemnly: "A grasshopper on a line, do you have to make it so stiff?"
"Bah!" Wan Zhikang was furious, "Whoever is on the same line as you, the head-decapitating demon will be the first to kill you. You must have touched some taboo and been cursed. You, and those two
Girls, don’t even think about sharing a room with me!”
Seeing that a quarrel was about to start, the restaurant door suddenly opened from the outside, and Xu Huo walked in carrying a large bluestone.
"You are looking for trouble, why are you moving rocks?" Wan Zhikang saw that no one liked him, so he opened his mouth and started to bombard them.
"This is not an ordinary stone." Xia Guo, who was close, waited for the stone to be placed on the ground before stepping forward and brushing off the moss, "It looks like a statue!"
"Statue?" The players came closer. Sure enough, although there was no head, the clothing lines could be seen from the front, and there was an ax hanging at the foot of the statue.
Everyone present was silent, and then Wan Zhikang shouted, "Isn't this the cursed headless statue?"
"Where did you find it?"
"What are you doing bringing this thing here!"
Xu Huo just lit his cigarette and said slowly: "The intersection we came to yesterday is right there. At first glance, it looks like a stone pier."
"By the way, I also found a diary." He opened the diary. "It said that anyone who touches the statue will die."
