"Have the rules of killing changed?"
"Um."
"Brother Qiushui, how did you tell?"
Ning Qiushui calculated the time in her mind and explained:
"Time is running out. Of course, I am not completely sure. I will briefly explain the situation to you. What you decide after that is your own business."
"In the meantime, don't ask any questions."
Everyone nodded immediately.
They were far away from the stairs at this time. At the other end, they could see each other clearly through the faint moonlight outside the window.
"Before, in the world of paintings, the housekeeper told me that Madam did not have much sanity left."
"It means that the madam's mind has been eroded by the thing in the church, and it has become different from normal people. It has been looking for traces of the picture album at night. In fact, it is essentially looking for the little master."
"The housekeeper had vaguely revealed before that the little master had disappeared in the castle for a long time, but even so, the madam still did not give up searching. This shows that the madam is sure of two things - first, the young master is not dead, and second, The young master has never left the castle."
"I think maybe it's because the little master is its biological flesh and blood, so there is some connection between it and the little master."
"Now that the young master has been killed by the housekeeper, the lady should also be aware of this."
"So... tonight, Madam will not look for the young master again."
After hearing this conclusion, several people were shocked!
indeed.
If we start from this perspective, Madam's killing rules tonight... are likely to change!
"Madam is a believer in that thing in the church. No matter what you do, its essential purpose is for that thing in the church."
"Before, it was squatting at the entrance of the stairs to observe the plaster statue of Jesus. It was probably worried about how the housekeeper would avoid the heavy rain. He told us that the plaster statue has not been destroyed in this place for so long, which shows that the lady has no choice. For this plaster statue... in other words, it can't touch the 'skin of the savior' that we peeled off."
"In that case, how can Madam prevent us from going to church?"
“If you can’t deal with ‘tools’, of course you can only deal with ‘people with tools’!”
After he finished saying this, the hearts of several people sank to the bottom.
Ning Qiushui's analysis is definitely not groundless.
Judging from the situation in the past two days, the madam is an NPC who acts according to a fixed pattern.
Unless there are special circumstances, its trajectory will not change.
But last night, Madam did not go upstairs immediately after dinner time, but secretly hid in the stairwell to observe them.
This outrageous behavior itself is also a reminder to them.
"So tonight, Madam will hunt us?"
Wen Qingya covered her mouth, and the calmness in her eyes had turned into panic.
"Not tonight, in fact, Madam will hunt us every night, but the hunting rules tonight are different from the previous two nights."
Su Xiaoxiao is probably the person with the best psychological quality among this group of people except Ning Qiushui. Until this moment, he can still calmly analyze the predicament at hand.
"If Brother Qiu Shui's speculation just now is correct, then the rule for Madam to hunt us tonight should be - as long as the "human skin of the savior" appears in the room, we will die!"
Ning Qiushui nodded.
"Yes, I think so too."
"That's why I called you out in a hurry."
Liao Jian saw the church in the rain through the window, and his heart moved slightly.
"...Is there a possibility that tonight we can just pull out all the stops and go to the church to get the matter settled?"
After he finished speaking, everyone fell silent.
Finally, Ning Qiushui said:
"It is not recommended. The risk of doing so is very high."
"Unless there is a clear warning behind the Blood Gate, it is best not to act at night."
“It’s their favorite time when the weather is heavy at night!”
"Let's change rooms."
"No matter what, let's hold on until tomorrow morning!"
In the end, everyone accepted Ning Qiushui's suggestion.
They all changed rooms.
In the middle of the night, the lady arrived as promised.
This time, it didn't come in through the window, but directly opened everyone's door.
The lady dragged the sickle stained with blood and smelling fishy, and kept walking around the room, rummaging through boxes and cabinets...
The person lying on the bed was naturally not asleep.
With their eyes closed and their bodies trembling violently, they heard the lady in black keep tossing around the room, chanting as if possessed:
"Where...where..."
"Where did you hide it..."
"It's in this room... it should be in this room..."
"I will definitely find it..."
Several times, people lying on the bed could feel that the lady's sickle was very close to them.
Fortunately, due to the protection of the rules, Madam was unable to hurt them after all.
No matter how angry or manic it is.
Finally, after turning the room to pieces, it could only reluctantly drag its scythe and leave the room...
Seeing the lady leave, everyone in the room took a long breath.
They were sure that Ning Qiushui's guess was correct.
He survived.
temporary……
…
In the early morning of the next day, Jun Luyuan saw his wife's blood-red eyes in his dream. He screamed, woke up instantly, and sat up from the bed.
It wasn't until he took a few deep breaths that he realized that Ning Qiushui was no longer in bed, and the sound of brushing teeth and washing could be heard from the toilet.
Jun Luyuan came to the door of the toilet and saw Ning Qiushui washing herself quickly as usual.
He looked at the person in the mirror and smiled bitterly:
"Brother Qiu Shui, your mental quality is really enviable...I encountered something like that last night, but you are still in the mood to wash up today."
Ning Qiushui spat out the toothpaste in her mouth and said with a smile:
"Death will always come when people don't expect it. Learn to prepare yourself so that you can be more dignified when you leave."
He spoke with deep meaning, as if recalling his past days.
Of course, these Jun Luyuan will not understand.
He just thinks Ning Qiushui is... handsome.
So he also took some time to wash up.
While he was washing, there was a knock on the door.
Jun Luyuan looked towards the door, looking at Su Xiaoxiao's beautiful face outside through the huge crack cut out by his wife last night.
"This is already the case. Is there any need to knock on the door?"
He complained.
Su Xiaoxiao smiled sarcastically, opened the door, and walked in directly.
"That's what I'm telling you, we're all ready... When are we going to set off?"
Jun Lu looked at Ning Qiushui from a distance, and the latter nodded.
Then Jun Luyuan spat out the foam in his mouth, rinsed it with water briefly, and replied cheerfully:
"Now!"
pS: There are still two chapters left. At 9 o'clock, the dungeon can be ended directly, leaving at most some aftermath issues.
