Absurd deduction game
Chapter 34 Abnormality and Decay
After Yu Xing's narration after he had faked the corpse, everyone basically figured out the truth of the matter.
Zhou Yongsheng and Zhou Facai probably had different positions. Zhou Facai regarded Zhou Yongsheng as an ordinary young man and planned to hold the same funeral as other villagers.
But Zhou Yongsheng knew this. He didn't want to be imprisoned and free. His resistance was fruitless. He was strangled to death and turned into a ghost. He began to think of other dirty tricks.
First of all, he and Zhou Qinghai happened to be classmates, so after his death, he sent a text message to invite Zhou Qinghai to the town to prepare for killing Zhou Facai.
Then, he called his two "idols", the painter San and the magician Carlos, plus two Feng Shui masters and two investigators, as well as a girl who came here to find a boyfriend, and planned to turn them into own nourishment.
In every villager, every corpse, and every funeral, there are innocent strangers who are tricked into staying behind and then devoured by special candles that light up and give the corpses in the coffins a living quality.
The greater the number of people, the greater the power of the body after the funeral.
This is the reason why Zhou Yongsheng gave Yu Xing and Xiao Xuechen a reminder to avoid the bad luck on the first night - it was not out of kindness, it just didn't want its nutrients to be cut off by other villagers.
But now, the candle has been destroyed by Yu Xing, and he must kill the outsider himself before the funeral is over.
Listening to Yu Xing reveal his plan bit by bit, Zhou Yongsheng's already terrifying face became even more gloomy.
"Since you want to be the first to die so much, I will make it happen for you!"
It finally stopped pretending to be a victim, jumped up on its legs, and jumped towards where Yu Xing was.
Looks like a zombie from folklore!
Yu Xing nimbly dodged over, holding the dagger in his hand in a defensive posture.
"Go put out the candles!" he shouted to others in a raised voice.
"Which ones?" Wei Fan asked.
"Everything." Yu Xing didn't need to answer, Xiao Xuechen had already got the answer. She calmed down and spoke very quickly, "Zhou Yongsheng said twice that the candle has its way, so we cut off its way. All candles present, including Everything on the sides of the ancestral hall and in the hands of the villagers was put out."
"Okay!" Wei Fan almost unconditionally trusted Xiao Xuechen's words. He immediately went to the candle stand behind the tuanfu with the Xu brothers who also took action.
Zhou Yongsheng's eyes suddenly widened and almost burst into pieces: "No! Go to hell!"
It turned around and rushed towards Xiao Xuechen. Yu Xing glanced at it coldly, snorted coldly, stepped sideways to stop it, and inserted a dagger into its forehead.
Ghosts cannot be killed directly, you must find the right method, but one good thing is that you can delay and interfere with ghosts by attacking.
A normal person's confrontation with a ghost is almost impossible to win, and it is easy to lose someone's life, but capable deducers are different. They can complete various frontal attack plans based on their own sacrifices to buy time for others.
Obviously, at this time, Yu Xing chose to be the one who stopped the ghost.
The dagger left a hole in Zhou Yongsheng's head. There was no blood inside, only an indescribable disgusting thing. Yu Xing walked around behind Zhou Yongsheng in a few steps and twisted the dagger blade, making Zhou Yongsheng howl in pain.
"Hmph." Xiao Xuechen on the side curled her lips when she saw Yu Xing helping her stop the attack, and suddenly a black pocket pistol appeared in her hand.
She aimed the wound at Zhou Yongsheng's head, which was exposed by Yu Xing, and decisively pulled the trigger.
"Peng!"
The sound of the gunshot made Yu Xing's eardrums roar, and also attracted the attention of others.
"Sacrifice?" Yu Xing murmured in a low voice, feeling a unique aura from the gun, the same as the parchment of the Xu brothers.
Zhou Yongsheng was shot in the head, and wisps of black energy emerged from the place where the bullet hit him. The black energy seemed to be consciously divided into the shape of chains, covering his head tightly.
Suddenly, Zhou Yongsheng's shouts became weaker and his movements became much slower.
Can ghosts be imprisoned? Yu Xing's eyes lit up and he became interested in the gun.
But Zhou Yongsheng is not easy to mess with. It is like a boss in the game. In just two seconds, the chain shattered and dissipated. It grabbed Yu Xing with one hand, and its hard and deformed hand grabbed Yu Xing's heart. Lifting his leg and kicking him, Zhou Yongsheng was kicked two meters away with unusual strength, and his nails were out of position and could have cut Yu Xing's arm.
A hole was torn in the plush top, and two blood stains appeared on Yu Xing's strong arm muscles. Yu Xing felt the pain and cast a casual glance.
This injury...is not fatal.
And the injury that is not fatal to him...
The next second, when Zhou Yongsheng landed, the two blood marks had begun to heal.
He was careful not to let others see the condition of the wound.
A necessary death is the most he can show in front of others, and he can cover up the past with a very limited sacrifice function.
But if others find that his injuries disappear quickly... it will be difficult for him.
The dagger in his hand reflected the beating light, and Yu Xing showed an excited look.
While he and Xiao Xuechen were confronting Zhou Yongsheng, Carlos was not idle either.
"Zhou Qinghai, tell those villagers not to move." Seeing that many villagers had the tendency to stand up and attack them, Carlos gave an order to Zhou Qinghai.
Zhou Qinghai expressed fear: "How can I tell them not to move?"
"Just say it to them."
"Oh, that!" Zhou Qinghai stretched his neck and shouted to the kneeling villagers outside the ancestral hall, "Don't, don't move!"
The villagers were dissatisfied and looked at each other, but since the village chief was their leader, they still obeyed.
Carlos ran among the villagers, held the knife in his hand, and slashed at the burning wick.
"puff."
With a small sound, the candle went out.
He glanced at Zhou Yongsheng, Yu Xing and Xiao Xuechen, and immediately continued what he was doing. Suddenly, the dots of candlelight disappeared one after another.
The candles on both sides of the ancestral hall were also quickly extinguished by the Xu brothers and Wei Fan.
Things seemed to be ending smoothly.
Of course Zhou Yongsheng would not let his plan be ruined so easily. Seeing that Yu Xing was less human than him and Xiao Xuechen was far away from it and difficult to kill, it took advantage of its position and returned to the black coffin.
It pressed its hands on the wall of the coffin and repeated the words Zhou Facai had read before, with a hoarse voice that was difficult to distinguish: "The dead are no longer seen and linger, and they are immortal and unquenchable outside of life and death..."
Indescribable panic arose in the hearts of all the humans present.
When the coffin lid was lifted off, the candle tray holding the special candle fell to the ground, and the candle tears scattered all over the floor. The candle tears that separated from the candle tray quickly solidified and cooled, leaving several scars on the ground.
As Zhou Yongsheng chanted, the candle tray and the black coffin trembled, as if they had reached some kind of resonance.
Xiao Xuechen was ready to fire his second bullet, but suddenly found that his hands and feet were cold, and his eyes were looking at the candle plate uncontrollably, unable to concentrate at all.
Moreover, the flesh on her forearm began to become soft inexplicably, as if it was about to rot.
This situation shocked her. She knew she was cursed, so she immediately used the first ability of [Eye of Life], draining 15% of her body's blood and adding a shield to herself that no one could see.
Suddenly, the rate of muscle decay slowed down. She was dizzy from blood loss, gritted her teeth, raised the gun, and fired again.
The shot inevitably went sideways and hit Zhou Yongsheng's leg. Unfortunately, Zhou Yongsheng did not need to move at this time, and the sluggishness of his legs did not interrupt his chanting.
Carlos held the knife for a moment, and almost stabbed himself. His green eyes darkened a little, and he stopped in time, then reached out and took out a new paper man.
He whispered: "To prevent disaster..."
As soon as the paper man appeared, he waved his arms randomly for a while, then quickly decayed and turned into a puddle of paper ashes.
"Control disruption plus decay?" After sacrificing the paper man, Carlos' body was back under his control. He didn't waste a second and pinched the candle wick more quickly.
The villagers whose candles were extinguished became less human-like in the night, and the evil thoughts in their eyes gradually increased. Fortunately, most of them still listened to Zhou Qinghai's words and did not attack.
But one or two, whose will was broken by the power of the black coffin and the candle plate, got up, threw away the candle and ran towards the living people.
The actions of the rest of the people were more or less affected, and their efficiency was greatly reduced. Xu Hong was a bit unlucky. He was located very close to the outside of the ancestral hall, and because he lost control of his body, he accidentally fell to the ground, and happened to be hit by the violent villagers. When he caught it, pain shot through him immediately.
Several villagers surrounded Xu Hong, and their hard claws left bloody holes on Xu Hong's body. Xu Hong screamed, causing Xu Yuan to roar heartbreakingly: "Brother!!"
He pulled out a piece of talisman paper from the small bag he carried with him, and the talisman paper began to burn violently, burning his hand to unbearable pain.
Xu Yuan endured the severe pain, forcibly controlled his movements, and threw the talisman towards the villagers.
The villagers were afraid of this and let go of Xu Hong. Xu Yuan took the opportunity to pull his brother away. Seeing that his brother was seriously injured all over his body, he suddenly became confused and didn't even care that his own neck was starting to rot.
Only three candles were burning in the candlestick on their side.
Yu Xing flicked his wrist and followed Zhou Yongsheng after Xiao Xuechen fired the second shot.
After paying some attention to others, he realized that the situation was not good. There were also signs of rot on his legs, but they were constantly being repaired by his body, making them rotten and intact. Although it caused him to experience more pain, there was nothing he could do. causing him substantial harm.
And that control interference... was of no use to him.
It must be faster.
Wei Fan was unexpectedly steady. The indiscriminate attacks of the black coffin and the candle plate seemed to cause him relatively little damage. At that moment, he quickly pinched the wick of the candle, and all the candles on one side were about to be extinguished.
Zhou Yongsheng looked at all this with pride and continued to chant: "With the eyes of the living and the breath of the dead, I witness..."
"Witness the correctness of solving the problem from the root." Yu Xing swung the dagger to Zhou Yongsheng's head, causing its broken spine to tilt.
Then, Yu Xing did not take the opportunity to continue beating it. Instead, he rolled to the candle plate on the ground and reached out to pick it up.
"Mine." He pinched the candle plate, successfully interrupting its resonance with the black coffin, causing the invisible curse to be interrupted.
Waves of coldness that he could not ignore entered his body from the candlestick, and a feeling of weakness came over him quickly.
He trembled and looked around for a moment.
The last candle outside the ancestral hall was extinguished by Carlos at this moment.
All the candles on the right side of the ancestral hall were extinguished by Wei Fan.
Can……
On the left side of the candle holder, Xu Yuan and Xu Hong were obviously in bad condition. One was seriously injured, probably pierced to the vitals, and the other was rotten on the neck, which was equally fatal. Moreover, several villagers got rid of the burning charm and headed towards it. The two pounced.
There are three candles left.
"Go to hell hahahaha..." Zhou Yongsheng looked at the mess at the scene and felt that he was in sight of victory.
It jumped to the candle stand and guarded the three last candles.
Now it only needs to wait for the twins to die first. The villagers whose consciousness has been disturbed by it belong to it at this moment. After killing the outsiders, its power will increase, and the others will definitely lose their fighting ability due to decay and control deviation. If it drops significantly, it is basically impossible to escape.
Its funeral will end perfectly.
However, a person it ignored brought its laughter to an abrupt end.
Zhou Qinghai didn't know when he ran in front of the Xu brothers, holding a big tuanfu in his hand.
His identity is the "village chief" and he is protected by the rules here. Zhou Yongsheng's curse has no effect on him at all.
Looking at the attacking villagers, he yelled, "Ah, ah, die to me," while closing his eyes and smashing them.
Although his strength was nothing in front of the villagers, it did buy the Xu brothers some time to survive.
Yu Xing's lips curled up: "Not bad."
He ducked to a suitable angle, raised the dagger in his hand, and flew out under Zhou Yongsheng's horrified gaze, flying straight towards the three candles.
On the extension line connecting his three candles, this dagger is very likely to penetrate three!
Zhou Yongsheng roared angrily and flew forward, finally knocking out the dagger before it flew over.
"Fuck you!" Wei Fan cursed angrily when he saw this scene. However, the next moment, all three candles were extinguished!
what happened?
Without the illumination of the last three candles, the ancestral hall fell into darkness. In the dim space, everyone could only see something flying back and forth in a large arc in the air.
The cold touch was caught by Yu Xing's hand. He looked at the candle plate that he used as a boomerang and felt quite good.
The dagger was a lure for the enemy. The moment he threw out the dagger, he threw out the candle disk in another way, accurately hitting the candles on their trajectory.
Plan passes.
Zhou Yongsheng's face was full of disbelief, and he gradually froze in the expectant eyes of everyone.
...It has lost its "origin" and has become a real, inactive corpse.
And the villagers also fell to the ground one by one.
[The funeral has been interrupted]
[Because the cycle of funerals is broken, the curse of Coffin Village is broken, and all corpses return to normal]
[Have a night’s rest and leave Coffin Village at eight o’clock tomorrow morning]
Several successive deduction prompts appeared in everyone's minds, and at that moment, the mission was declared completed.
But...the injuries have not disappeared, and some people are still lingering on the verge of death.
It's over, it's over, the next chapter will be concluded, and the next chapter will be a new deduction.
