"Brother's skull is round and pretty," Gu Mian looked at the beautiful skull that was tilted out on the ground. "I must have looked good when he was alive, but unfortunately it turned into bones later."
At this time, he noticed that the characters on the screen were moving uncontrollably.
The screen kept pulling in towards the skull, and the beautiful head kept enlarging until it filled his entire field of vision.
Then Gu Mian saw a pair of skinny hands appear on the screen. It was the character who stretched out her hand. She carefully picked up the dirty skull and gently held it in her arms.
There was another change on the screen. The perspective changed directly from the bottom of the well to a room, the same room that Gu Mian saw in the closet. The floor had been replaced with a new one, and the wall where the woman had been hung had been repainted. However, the mark of the iron hook nailed to the wall still could not be completely erased, so it could only be confused by applying a layer of white discarded paint.
The skull that took up almost the entire screen just now has turned into a real head.
This is a young man with gray hair and brown eyes, a little thin. He is wearing a shabby coat and bends down to show a gentle smile to the screen. He may also reach out to touch the character's head.
Gu Mian looked at the face that occupied almost half of the screen: "It should be my brother."
I saw my brother's mouth opening and closing, and his voice should be quite gentle: "Stay at home, brother goes out to work and will be back before night."
Then he straightened up, and his tall figure in the perspective walked out of the door and closed the door, leaving his sister alone in this room filled with horror.
Immediately afterwards, the screen angle moved, and as expected, my sister followed suit unwillingly.
It turns out that the group of people's terrorist attack on the Saint is far from over. In just a few frames, Gu Mian saw 'oil fire attack', 'homemade bomb attack', 'pretend wolf pretends to be sleeping to lure the enemy into attacking' Various assassination techniques shocked Gu Mian's entire community.
Although Gu Mian has been coveted by assassins from life since he was a child, these assassinations still dazzled his eyes.
But compared to Gu Mian, the saint is lucky because she has a perfect brother.
He saw the terrifying flames finally burning on the person who wanted to set the fire. His brother, who had taken off his coat, watched quietly on the side until the person in front of him turned into charcoal.
A deafening bang resounded through the abandoned house, and when others arrived they only saw human bodies blown into pieces.
Even if he fights with two people, he can still win, but the process will be more brutal, with several more bleeding wounds on his body.
The sun was setting in the west and evening was approaching. Her perspective followed her brother as she stopped by a river. She saw her brother clean the bleeding wound and then wrap it roughly with a few pieces of cloth. Finally, he put on a shabby coat to cover the wound on his body.
"I'm back." When his brother's figure appeared at the door again, the last trace of the sun was completely blocked by the horizon. Gu Mian looked out the door and saw only boundless darkness.
Then the scene changed to the brother's bloodless face, which was a memory at the bottom of the well. He had not yet turned into bones; the messy scratches on the well wall were still clearly visible, and the strange logo was daubed next to it, as if It hinted at something; before my brother had time to rot, his fingertips were almost broken into white bones, and he had climbed up desperately.
At this moment, Gu Mian suddenly saw the pale head on the ground twisting stiffly, and then the face suddenly turned ninety degrees to the right at the bottom of the dark and damp well, facing the screen and then suddenly Open your mouth;
"What's going on?" Gu Mian frowned, "He should be dead by now. Does this episode exist in his memory?"
The corpse that was supposed to be sleeping seemed to be screaming something, but the subtitles disappeared again, and Gu Mian couldn't understand what he was shouting.
The screen suddenly cracked like glass that had been hit, and Gu Mian finally understood the last two words shouted by the corpse——
"Run quickly"
At this moment, the screen returned to normal, and the dark bottom of the well and the bones in his arms were still in front of him.
It just seems like something is not normal...
And this weird feeling seems to come from... the top of the head?
As if she noticed something, Gu Mian controlled the angle of view and looked up, only to see half of her face leaning into the mouth of the well at some point, staring at her.
It's a bird.
Unfortunately, Xiaoniao and her two men who went out to carry the body came back.
"Gu Mian couldn't hear our voices. It was probably the game's way of preventing him from discovering that we were the save point. But Gu Mian had a keen intuition and discovered this almost from the beginning."
Fatty nodded listening to Chu Changge's words: "Then the doctor can't hear our voices because this game wants to mislead him into killing us?"
"That's right," Chu Changge's voice continued to come from the microphone, "but..."
When he said this, he suddenly stopped.
The fat man scratched his head and waited for a few seconds without seeing the other party continue, then he asked eagerly: "But what?"
Chu Changge then spoke again: "But if Gu Mian not only can't hear our voices, but if he can't even hear other voices, then things may not be so simple; and it depends on the state of the characters he controls. , it seems that no sound can be heard.
Like I just said, maybe if Gu Mian hears something, the secret will be exposed. I guess the secret is related to himself, but he shouldn't be in danger before the archive is completely used up, but if If all the archives are used up and the character controlled by Gu Mian dies again... Anyway, don't destroy the archives. "
The fat man responded quickly, and the call ended. He sat on the chair next to the table and thought.
"Voices and secrets..." Fatty frowned. He really couldn't think of any connection between the two.
All the books in the room were read through, and even the bookshelf was almost dismantled by him. Thinking that a lighter could be hidden on the chandelier, Fatty even dropped all the pendulum clocks on the wall to see if there was anything hidden on the back. , but still found nothing.
The fat man sat down on the ground dejectedly, staring at the dark street outside: "It seems that this problem can only be solved by the doctor himself, but I don't know if he has realized that there is something wrong with the sound of this game."
And just when the fat man looked through the whole room again and was considering whether to pry open the floor to take a look, the phone on the table behind him suddenly started ringing.
"Is it Brother Chu? What did he find?"
The fat man was talking to himself as he reached out to pick up the phone. The moment he put the phone to his ear, his scalp suddenly went numb.
"Click"
It was the sound of a lighter being turned on.
Immediately afterwards, 007's gentle voice came from the microphone:
"I just found a lighter."
The moonlight shines on the abandoned village in the ravine,
Gu Mian stood on the ground and looked at the three corpses at his feet. Only one fourth of his health bar was left.
These people seemed to have been mentally prepared for a long time, but they did not expect the saint to become so ferocious, so in the end they fell to the ground with a look of horror.
Gu Mian changed her perspective: "Finally they don't look at me like they are staring at food. It's so weird to be stared at like that in the middle of the night."
If he were to deal with two men and one woman on flat ground, he might not suffer such a huge loss of health. Unfortunately, Gu Mian had to climb up while dealing with the attacks, otherwise the people above would seal the well mouth and wait for people to come back and catch the turtle in the jar.
"Speaking of which..." Gu Mian turned to look at the mouth of the well again. The round skull was still at the bottom of the well. It was looking up, as if it was also looking at him; the moonlight shone on the skull. On the head, it seemed to be still opening its mouth to tell something, but Gu Mian could not hear the sound, and the subtitle team was not working.
"Did my brother say 'run quickly' in the memory clip just now to me?" Gu Mian touched his chin, "Could it be that he saw the birds and them coming back before warning me?"
If that's the case, then this is really a heart-warming and good brother, but it's a pity that Gu Mian is not a real sister.
"The task of this copy is to clear the game. Let's not talk about getting stronger. Watching these memories should also be beneficial to the development of the plot." Gu Mian had already controlled the character to walk quickly at this time. "The last memory should be in There is a gallows, but I walked around here a few times and didn’t find any gallows.”
Gu Mian recalled the contents of the village chief's notes, which described the gallows as being at the "easternmost", and that the group of people who had killed the saint's parents and brother finally settled there.
...If you're lucky, you might even run into them?
"I remember when I first entered the game, I was almost at the easternmost edge of the village, but there was almost nothing there, just cliffs and a large open space."
When Gu Mian was walking around the village, she made a point of looking over there a few times, but no matter how she looked, it was just an empty space, and there was no so-called gallows or cross legion.
"Then let's take a look over there. Although you may encounter the monster with the anklet at any time, I still haven't figured out where the monster came from, nor why the village chief did it. Going out of the secret passage in the middle of the night, isn't he afraid of encountering that monster?"
When Gu Mian headed east, he passed by his three friends. He also took a look at each one. Except that the save point where 007 was located was smoking, there was no other abnormality.
When the skinny woman passed Fatty's save point, Fatty was calling Chu Changge: "Brother Chu, 007 also found the lighter... No, she wanted to see if there was anything under the floor, so she used the bookshelf The book was used as a primer to ignite the wooden floor... Well, she found something under the floor. It was hard and reflective. It must be some kind of stone foundation? And she said that she was almost smoked into a barbecue steak in the bookstore..."
At this moment, Fatty noticed a figure appearing in his peripheral vision.
He turned around and saw the tall and thin woman. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but the fat man felt that this woman's image seemed sharper than before... It was probably because her white clothes had some stains on them. For blood's sake.
"Doctor! The doctor is back!" The fat man immediately abandoned the microphone in his hand and ran to the door. He leaned against the door and turned his head to look at the woman up and down. He was relieved after making sure that the blood was not from the character. .
At this moment, he thought of Chu Changge, who had been left out by him, and trotted back to pick up the microphone hanging from the table: "The doctor is back, he came to me."
Soon Chu Changge saw Gu Mian reappearing with his own eyes.
The tall and thin woman who was manipulated, wearing a blood-stained white dress, stood at the door for a while, then turned around and walked towards the east.
Chu Changge stood at the door and looked in the direction where the woman left. From his perspective, there was a cliff over there.
Gu Mian soon arrived at his birth point. The steep cliff was overgrown with weeds, high enough to drown a person. Apart from the weeds and cliffs, it was completely empty. There were not even ruins. Gu Mian couldn't help but doubt the village. Did the people who settled here in the Long Notes also settle underground?
Looking up in the dark night, the towering cliff wall was more than ten meters high, finally blending into the darkness.
And just when he wanted to walk along the steep cliff to see if there would be any clues, a huge shadow suddenly appeared in his sight.
He saw the monster with chains on his feet walking out of the dark night. Gu Mian immediately put away the conspicuous shovel and stepped back quietly, hiding in the haystack behind him before he was discovered.
The huge monster didn't see him. Gu Mian watched the monster walking forward step by step in the grass, as if it was patrolling; but it didn't patrol for long before it turned around and stood in front of a stone wall for a while. He left after five or six seconds.
Is there something there?
After the thing completely left, Gu Mian immediately controlled the character to walk out.
Some withered grass was stepped on, making a rustling sound.
Suddenly, Gu Mian stopped.
He heard the sound.
He has always been the only one making a sound in this room, but just now, the "crack" sound of withered grass being stepped on really reached his ears.
He tried to control the character to take a few more steps, but the sound of withered grass being trampled was heard all around.
what happened? This game suddenly has sound?
Gu Mian was thinking as she controlled the character to take a few steps forward, but she only heard footsteps during the first two steps, and almost no sound after the next few steps.
"The sound doesn't seem to be coming from the computer, but from... above."
As Gu Mian spoke, she looked up and saw the gray ceiling above.
After thinking for a few seconds, he quickly controlled the character to return to the haystack, and turned to look at the ground. The original ground had long been covered with messy weeds. Gu Mian quickly took out the shovel and saw that there were holes on the ground that could be dug. option, he immediately controlled the character to start digging; at the same time, Gu Mian heard the sound of digging from above his head, as if someone was driving a forklift to dig soil above his head. Gu Mian felt that the ceiling would be dug at any time.
"Am I also in this game, and the character I control can help me get out of this place?"
But immediately, Gu Mian, who was watching the screen closely, gave up this naive idea.
After a few shovels went down, a black book cover appeared in sight.
The moment she saw the book cover, Gu Mian suddenly stopped what she was doing.
He got it.
"I can't leave here."
"It turns out that I am also a save point... the original save point..."
