The reincarnators once again formed a large group and headed to Bieltan Village.
Fu Qinghai actually didn't want to go to Bertan Village now. He wanted to dig through the ruins of Santa Cata Monastery to see if there were any other clues.
It can be seen from the ruins that this is a large monastery with a cellar, a tower, a front yard, a back yard and an inner yard.
Now all that is left is charred ruins.
Because Fu Qinghai feels that the current development of things is a bit passive. It seems that no one here except Ru Sifan has watched the movie "The Nun". In this case, Ru Sifan becomes the only source of information and the only person with the right to speak. , what he says, others can only believe.
This made Fu Qinghai feel a little uncomfortable.
Fu Qinghai has always been a very suspicious person. He started to doubt Wokuotai because of a silver coin belonging to a warrior association. Now, Fu Qinghai also feels that something is wrong.
But there is no way. According to the horror movie survival rules summarized by good netizens, the first one is not to act separately. The priority of this rule is even higher than not to act at night.
According to the convention of horror movies, Fu Qinghai should be with the large army at this moment, rather than digging through the ruins of the monastery alone.
Fu Qinghai, who was walking in the team, heard a reincarnator approaching Ru Sifan and asking:
"Sir Ruthfan, in the cemetery we passed before, why was there a small bell in front of the tombstone? What does this mean?"
Fu Qinghai listened intently as he walked. This was actually his problem.
Rusfan patiently explained: "According to the movie, there was a plague in this area. In order to prevent the dead people from being buried in the graves by mistake, a small bell was placed in front of the tombstone and a line was connected. Go to the coffin, and if the person is not dead, then he pulls the bell and with luck he will be discovered.”
Fu Qinghai nodded in his mind. This is a way. Determining whether a person is completely dead is actually a very technical job. It is not just about looking at breathing and feeling the pulse. With the continuous development of medical technology, Humanity's definition of death is also constantly being updated. In ancient times when medical technology was underdeveloped, it was not uncommon for people who were not fully dead to be buried alive.
During World War II, airplanes and tanks were fighting outside, and backward horse-drawn carriages were still used here. This region called Transylvania was obviously not a developed place.
As he walked, Fu Qinghai glanced around and suddenly discovered that the woman in black who had been hanging around the group, Zhang Yuning, was missing.
Not many people care about this lone ranger.
But Zhang Yuning's disappearance reminded Fu Qinghai, and he quietly slowed down and moved slowly to the end of the large team.
Now everyone is walking on the hillside going down the mountain. Fu Qinghai, who is walking at the end, can easily see everyone.
One, two, three, four... Fu Qinghai counted the people one by one.
Then I discovered that three people were missing.
Fu Qinghai, who came to this conclusion, remained calm on the surface, but was already thinking secretly in his heart.
When did they disappear? Where did these three people go?
Fu Qinghai didn't speak. Everyone was a seasoned reincarnator. He didn't believe that he was the only one in the entire team who was astute.
Sure enough, after a while, someone suddenly shouted:
"Hey, have you noticed, there seem to be a few people missing!"
As soon as he shouted, the whole team stopped. Everyone looked at each other, feeling that the number of people had indeed become smaller.
At this time, the sound of branches being stepped on suddenly came from the forest nearby. Two people walked out laughing, scratching their heads and saying:
"I'm sorry, everyone, I just went to relieve my hands for convenience, haha."
Seeing these two people returning to join the team, everyone relaxed a little, and the tension that had just risen dissipated.
This is the advantage of the world of reincarnation that does not distinguish between camps. Everyone knows that there is no assimilation point reward for killing each other, and there is naturally much less suspicion between each other.
Only Fu Qinghai grinned playfully.
There is still one person missing.
As mentioned before, Tony Stark's electronic soul has the characteristics of an electronic brain. Fu Qinghai wants to scan a book, and he can remember ten lines at a glance. Before setting off at the entrance of the town, he quietly counted the number of people. That would definitely not be the case. would be wrong.
Fu Qinghai saw that the two people who claimed to have gone to relieve themselves just now walked up to Ru Sifan and whispered something. Then Ru Sifan nodded and continued to lead the team forward without saying anything. go.
This team has a problem, a big problem...
Fu Qinghai took a deep look at Ru Sifan's back. Just as the team was rounding a huge rock in the mountain, Fu Qinghai, who had been following the group at the end, quietly and quickly turned around, broke away from the group, and got into the bushes. among.
Now he no longer cares about the rules of horror movies about not acting separately. He wants to go back the same way and investigate what happened to the missing person.
Fu Qinghai ran up the mountain quickly. He no longer had to hide and follow the crowd, and when he moved forward with all his strength, his speed was three times faster than when he came.
Fu Qinghai first came to the ruins of the monastery. Fu Qinghai jumped into the ruins, pulled apart stones one by one, and searched carefully, but found no useful clues and found nothing.
The ruins of the monastery are too big to move and search them all by myself.
He was the first one to step forward to check the ruins. The missing person should not be here. Fu Qinghai raised his head and looked around, thinking to himself.
Where might it be?
Could it be... Fu Qinghai thought of a place, jumped up from the ruins, found a certain direction and ran towards it.
When we arrived at the tomb area, which was overgrown with weeds and lined with tombstones, it was getting dark.
The surrounding woods were shadowy and the visibility was slightly reduced, but it did not affect Fu Qinghai, who had a visual control organ.
Fu Qinghai walked into the tomb area, but unexpectedly saw someone he didn't expect.
A tall, thin-shouldered woman wearing black clothes.
With his back to Fu Qinghai, he stood among the tombstones.
"what are you doing here?"
Looking at the woman's back, Fu Qinghai spoke, using Chinese.
Zhang Yuning did not turn around or look back, but looked ahead and said calmly:
"There is a living person buried here."
A living person...could it be that? Fu Qinghai was slightly shocked.
Fu Qinghai stepped forward and came to Zhang Yuning's side. He turned to look at the indifferent woman and asked:
"where is he?"
Zhang Yuning gently closed her eyes, felt for a few seconds, opened her eyes, pointed in a direction and said:
"there."
Fu Qinghai ran forward and soon saw a tomb in front of it. The freshness of the soil was obviously different from the surroundings, but the stone tombstone in front of the tomb had already been corroded by wind and rain and was uneven.
There is a small bell in front of the surrounding tombstones, but not in front of this tombstone.
Zhang Yuning, a woman in black, also came to this tomb.
Fu Qinghai looked around, pulled out a wooden cross, inserted it into the soil like a hoe, and started digging!
The soil was very loose and the burial was not deep. Fu Qinghai dug up the coffin board in a short time. He could already hear the sound of twisting and banging in the coffin board.
Fu Qinghai pulled open the coffin board, and the copper locks on the side of the coffin snapped, revealing a tightly tied young man inside.
Fu Qing untied the cloth that tied his mouth.
This young man with brown hair, a high nose, light freckles on his face, and blood all over his head quickly sat up, gasped for air, and after taking a few breaths of fresh air, he raised his head and looked at Fu Qinghai and Zhang Yuning, and said gratefully:
"Thank you, thank you for saving me!"
Fu Qinghai frowned and asked, "Who are you?"
The young man's chest heaved and he gasped as he replied: "I am Ron Bentham, a reincarnation in Rusfan's team. I have seen you. You are the muscle strength enhancer they call you."
Fu Qinghai asked: "Why are you here?"
Ron Bentham calmed his breathing, glanced at Fu Qinghai, and said:
"Can you untie me first?"
…
Fu Qinghai untied the young man's tightly tied hands and feet, and the young man crawled out of the grave. In the coffin behind him were black bones that had been crushed to pieces.
Ron Bentham patted the bone fragments attached to his back and explained to Fu Qinghai and Zhang Yuning.
Ron is a reincarnation who decided to follow the Rusfan group in a small town. He has no special abilities. The only advantage of this replica world for him is that he has watched the horror movie "The Nun".
At the beginning, Ron Bentham did not tell the people around him that he also understood the plot of "The Nun". He just silently mingled with the whole team and followed everyone's actions.
As he mingled with Rusfan's team for a while, Ron gradually became familiar with the two reincarnators around him, and had some private exchanges, until the large army of reincarnators arrived in front of the ruins of St. Carta Monastery. , Ron Bentham quietly told two familiar reincarnators that he felt that Sir Ruth Fan seemed to have reservations when retelling the plot of the movie, and there were some settings that he did not fully explain.
Ron thought less. The two people he thought were independent reincarnators like himself were actually the shills arranged by Rusifan in the team, and they were both Rusifan's people.
Outside the monastery, everyone dispersed and followed Fu Qinghai's prompts to look for traces of another group of reincarnations. The two took the opportunity to subdue Ron, tied him up and buried him in a grave.
The blood and wounds on Ron's head were caused by being hit hard from behind.
Fu Qinghai asked what he thought was the most unreasonable part of this passage:
"Then why don't they just kill you? Wouldn't that be simpler?"
Ron replied: "Because if you kill me directly, your assimilation points will be deducted from the reincarnation world. They want me to die slowly in the cemetery. It is best to be alive at the end of the copy world."
Fu Qinghai looked at Zhang Yuning's face next to him and found that her expression was normal, so he guessed that what Ron said was true.
That is, if reincarnations without different camps kill each other, not only will there be no assimilation point rewards, but assimilation points will even be deducted.
Fu Qinghai nodded and asked, "Then what plot aspects does he have reservations about?"
Ron muttered: "Actually, it doesn't matter. Rusfan has a high prestige among this group of people. I didn't want to question his meaning at the time. I just said: Sir didn't seem to mention how this demon came to the monastery." .”
"Oh?" Fu Qinghai became interested and immediately asked:
"Then how did this demon Valak come to this monastery?"
Ron said: "The movie says that in the Middle Ages, this place belonged to a territory called the Duke of Santa Carta. This monastery was originally the castle of the Duke of Santa Carta. The Duke collected and recorded various witchcraft spells and rituals in his daily life. A dark and bloody summoning ceremony is held in the castle, in an attempt to summon the evil power in hell for one's own use."
"At the last moment of the summons, the Duke was killed by the Catholic religious troops who arrived. The bishop used the blood of Jesus to seal the door to hell and the world, and then converted the castle into a monastery, guarded day and night by devout nuns sent by the Vatican. , until the outbreak of World War II, you also know what happened next.”
After saying that, Ron complained: "It's nothing, I just helped him add in the antecedent setting, but when the two reincarnations heard it, they immediately decided to kill me."
Ritual...summoning demons... Fu Qinghai muttered these keywords in his heart.
Fu Qinghai felt that this set of settings was still very critical, indicating that the demon Valak was not in the monastery from the beginning, but that someone planned to summon him from hell. He was interrupted halfway through the summoning and was sealed. .
But what does this have to do with Rusfan’s silence?
No matter what ulterior purpose Rusfan had in forming this team and placing them in it, at least Rusfan's own reincarnation mission was the same as that of all the reincarnators, which was to seal the demon Valak.
This is also the reason why many reincarnations trust him so much, because the world of reincarnation has not issued a second mission.
Or is it simply to maintain his right to speak in the Samsara team and maintain his status as a key opinion leader (KOL)?
There is no need to kill people and silence them. There are obviously shills in the team. Only a few shills are needed to help maintain Rusfan's authority, and Ron's voice can be completely suppressed.
Bury Ron Bentham in the cemetery. If he can't hold it in and dies early, the assimilation points will have to be deducted.
Fu Qinghai thought of a key point and asked: "Then after the seal in the monastery was blown up by C4 explosives, should the demon Valak be completely unsealed and come to the world, or should he be completely returned to hell?"
Ron Bentham thought for a while and said: "No, the plot shown in the movie shows that the body of the hell demon Valak was interrupted before he fully came to the world. Now trapped in the monastery, It’s just a wisp of Valak’s power. Even if the seal is completely destroyed, if Valak wants to come to the human world completely, he still needs to continue the ritual performed by Duke St. Carta, at least that’s what he did in the movie.”
"How did He do it?"
"In the movie, the female trainee nun is a psychic and very devout to God. Valak finally possessed the nun and seemed to intend to sacrifice her and use her to continue the summoning ritual."
Psychics, or mediums, have yin and yang eyes, they can be called anything, but they all mean the same thing.
He is a person who can see monsters and ghosts that ordinary people cannot see.
People with this setting are found in many supernatural horror movies. They are either the protagonist or the thigh that the protagonist needs to hold. They play an important role in advancing the plot. After all, psychics can at least see the existence of ghosts. , no matter whether you know any exorcism spells or not, it is still better than ordinary people not being able to see anything and being beaten.
"Psychic..." Fu Qinghai murmured to himself. Remembering something, he turned to Zhang Yuning on the other side and asked, "How did you know that Ron was buried here?"
Zhang Yuning still looked cold and kept away from strangers, nodded and said: "Yes, I am a psychic."
Zhang Yuning continued: "But I know that he is buried here not because of his psychic ability."
Ron Bentham is a living person, and his yin and yang eyes can see ghosts. Logically speaking, it has nothing to do with psychics. Fu Qinghai asked:
"What ability is that?"
Zhang Yuning turned around, glanced at Fu Qinghai expressionlessly, and said, "It's not good for you to know."
This glance, for a moment, seemed to contain a surge of extreme hatred and malice, which made Fu Qinghai's hair stand on end.
Zhang Yuning turned her head and stopped looking at Fu Qinghai. The hatred and malice disappeared. The feeling just now seemed to be an illusion, but the hairs still standing on Fu Qinghai's arms told him that this was not an illusion.
This woman also hides many secrets... Fu Qinghai's heart trembled.
You know, Fu Qinghai is not a timid person who can be easily frightened. In the Warhammer 40K universe, he has faced death several times and walked on the edge of life and death many times. Ordinary terror is simply not possible. Not enough to make him react so much.
However, as mentioned before, psychics are very useful in horror movies. Given that Zhang Yuning is a reincarnation and has the same reincarnation mission as herself, she should be given the same treatment as Lu Sifan. of trust.
The same trust as Rusfan, in short, not much trust.
But now it is obvious that following Lu Sifan is impossible. Another person who has watched the plot of the movie is beside him, and this person was discovered by Zhang Yuning, so Fu Qinghai can only choose to believe Ron's words and treat Zhang Yuning a little better. Have some trust.
At least for now, Zhang Yuning's status in Fu Qinghai's heart is better than that of Lu Sifan!
And Lu Sifan, who chose to kill other reincarnations, has been thrown into the wolf pit by Fu Qinghai.
At present, the only result of the bombing of the monastery is that this ray of Valak's power can wander around the world uncontrollably, causing the reincarnations to be unable to complete their sealing tasks, and will eventually be deducted at the end of the dungeon world. A reincarnated life.
The sky had completely darkened. In the dark cemetery, there were only three people and a kerosene lamp brought by Zhang Yuning. Zhang Yuning looked cold and silent as always. Fu Qinghai was frowning and thinking, and Ron Bentham on the side suddenly thought of What, he said excitedly:
"By the way, I remembered, there is an important clue in this cemetery!"
"What important clues?" Fu Qinghai asked.
Ron said: "I am still deeply impressed by this movie. In the original plot, the priest was designed by Valak to fall into a coffin in a grave pit. He was almost suffocated in the coffin, and was finally rescued by a trainee nun. In that coffin, there is a pile of ancient books and materials, which seem to record the content of the ritual in which Duke St. Carta summoned Valak."
Before Fu Qinghai could speak, Zhang Yuning's eyes lit up and he said excitedly: "Where is the tomb? Take me there quickly!"
Fu Qinghai frowned and wondered, why are you so excited?
Ron Bentham said: "At that time, the movie gave a close-up shot of the tombstone. I was a little impressed, but you have to lead me to search here, and I will see if I can find the tombstone."
The two of them carried kerosene lamps and took Ron with them, searching the tombstones in the cemetery area one by one. Finally, Ron stopped at a tombstone that read "HERE LIES FATHER ANTHONY RURKE".
"Father Anthony Luke is buried here..." Fu Qinghai looked at the tombstone and muttered in a low voice.
In front of the tombstone is a deep pit with a coffin lying quietly inside.
Ron said with certainty: "It was in this coffin that the protagonist, the priest, found several ancient books that the Duke of St. Carta used to summon Valak. In the books, the hero and heroine knew the origin of Valak and how to seal him. method."
Fu Qinghai stepped down into the tomb and opened the coffin board.
The three of them didn't expect it.
It was empty inside.
