Nightmare Apostle

"Where did the ghost script come from?" The mailing address is usually the place where the mission starts. Yang Xiao's first mission was in Fengmen Town.

"I don't know, the address part is defaced."

After Yu Shu finished replying this sentence, he disappeared again. Beibei said that she had contacted people from the technical department to ask Yu Shu to calm down and sort out the information. People from the technical department would find her soon, and they would use the information provided by Yu Shu. Assist in determining task context.

Yang Xiao privately chatted with Beibei, "Is there still a situation in a ghost script where the mailing address is completely unclear?"

"Yes, but not much." Beibei replied, "Generally when encountering this kind of situation, we will start from the content of the ghost script, such as photos, or some text introductions to analyze the location where the mission starts. First determine the location.

Find more clues. "

"How is the accuracy?" What Yang Xiao is really worried about is this.

"It's relatively bad. The scripts about modern times are okay. If it were an ancient script, the time span would be too big and some useful information would have been lost long ago." Beibei said bluntly,

After something like this happened, he was definitely not in the mood to play the game. Yang Xiao thought for a moment and entered the five words Xiba Ghost Bodhisattva into the computer search box. All that came up in the search were some messy things with no reference value.

As the next best thing, Yang Xiao entered the word Xiba instead. He judged that Xiba should be a place name, and he found some information this time.

After sorting it out, there are no less than 30 places named Xiba in China, some of which are larger than the town named Xiba, and some of which are smaller are just islands in the middle of the lake.

Yang Xiao recorded these places one by one, and then went to Tieba to search for any supernatural events in these places.

Or a strange legend.

Unfortunately, Yang Xiao searched for more than an hour, but all they found were random rumors. The key was that he found no information related to the Ghost Bodhisattva.

Early the next morning, Yang Xiao had just returned from breakfast. Beibei, Daxiong, Ximen Xiu, and Zhuge Zhijie seemed to have made an appointment and arrived at the office on time at 7:30.

"Yu Shu is here and is communicating with people from the technical department." Beibei said.

At around 9 o'clock, Yu Shu finally showed up. She didn't look well, and she obviously hadn't rested all night. "It made everyone worried." Yu Shu wrote in the folder.

"What are you talking about?" Beibei pulled Yu Shu to sit down. Ximen Xiu brought Yu Shu a cup of hot coffee with great discernment, "What's going on?"

"Yesterday you said that thing was coming. Have you seen that ghost?" Yang Xiao asked.

"See you." Yu Shu wrote.

"What does it look like?"

"I don't know, it doesn't have a head, but it should be a man."

"Headless ghost?" Ximen Xiu couldn't help but shrink his neck, thinking that the scene at that time should be terrible,

If it were him, he might be scared to death.

"Are there any other characteristics besides this?" Beibei asked, "For example, what kind of clothes is this ghost wearing? Is it holding anything in its hands?"

Yu Shu thought for a moment and wrote on the folder: "The clothes were dirty and looked like coarse cloth. He was holding a small piece of something in his hand. I didn't see the details clearly. I didn't dare to get too close, but it didn't look like it. It's a weapon."

"How do ghosts behave?"

Hearing this sentence, Yu Shu's eyes suddenly changed, as if he recalled something terrible, "It was looking for something. Although it moved very slowly, you could tell that it was a rice cooker at first, and then it was looking for something." Touched the volleyball again.”

"It's looking for its head." Yang Xiao reacted immediately.

Yu Shu nodded slowly and wrote a line on the folder, "That thing was touching everywhere in the room, and once almost touched my head."

Imagining the scene described by Yu Shu, Yang Xiao couldn't help but shudder. What would happen if that thing touched Yu Shu's head? Would it be ripped off directly and placed on his body?

These characteristics were too vague, so Beibei turned to ask about the content of the ghost script. According to Yu Shu, the script mentioned a place called Xiba many times, saying that the people there were fierce and did not respect the royal power, and robberies often occurred nearby. The officers and soldiers went to clear up the cases of merchants and mutilated human lives several times, but they all came back in vain.

There are rumors that the local people secretly worshiped the evil spirits and obtained some strange powers. They came and went without a trace at night, were murderous and bloodthirsty, were not afraid of swords, and could tear apart armor with their fingernails.

These people later became so rampant that they even dared to plunder the money provided by the court for disaster relief. This incident aroused the anger of the big shots in the court. They sent heavy troops to encircle and suppress them. They fought fiercely for days and beheaded more than 10,000 people. They completely wiped out the local banditry. The generals who led the army were even more powerful. With this military achievement, he was promoted to a high official position, and he rose to prominence.

But the good times did not last long. A few years later, these bandits appeared again, and their methods were even worse than before. This time they targeted the small groups of officers and soldiers who passed by. They only killed people, not looted, and the dead were dead. It was so miserable that all the heads were chopped off and taken away. Despite the many crimes, no one was left alive.

The court was furious and sent an army. However, the troops sent this time searched through the villages and mountains near Xiba, but could not find the murderous gangsters. What was even weirder was that they could not even find any traces of human life. Not found.

Because almost every household in the villages near Xiba is infested with bandits. The last time the bandits were eliminated, almost all the villagers in Xiba were slaughtered. Therefore, these villages are empty and no one lives in them at all.

After nightfall, the general who was stationed in the deserted village received an urgent report from his subordinates, saying that a small unit participating in the mountain search today was missing.

After dawn, they found this unit in a mountain stream, but everyone was dead in a miserable state, and their heads were cut off and taken away.

Strangely, this is not the marching direction of this army. They seem to be lured here by some mysterious force.

For three consecutive days, people disappeared after nightfall, and the bodies were not found until dawn. The atmosphere of panic spread in the team. Everyone was privately saying that the ghosts of the killed bandits were not dispersed and came back for revenge. Only this explanation made sense.

And such a statement could not be reported to the court truthfully, so the general ordered people to find talented people in the nearby prefectures and come to investigate. Yu Shu and other 6 people were lucky to be selected. This is also Yu Shu's identity in the nightmare world this time.

"There are only 6 people participating in the mission. It seems that it should not be too difficult." Ximen Xiu breathed a sigh of relief.

Beibei was not as optimistic as him, and frowned slightly, "Not necessarily. The number of people does not determine the difficulty of the mission."

"News!" Zhuge Zhijie's voice suddenly sounded.

Everyone gathered around, Zhuge Zhijie sat at his desk and opened the folder on the screen. He did not participate in the discussion before, but was waiting for news.

The folder was sent by the technical department. After opening it, the title inside cheered up several people.

Code: Longshou Mountain Yinbing Cave Incident Supernatural Event Level: B-level Threat Level: Medium-level Treatment Result: Isolation (sealed)

"No wonder the location was determined so quickly. Someone else received this ghost script before!" Daxiong couldn't help but sigh.

The information sent by the technical department is quite detailed, with more than ten pages. According to the information, as early as three years ago, an apostle affiliated with the Federation received this ghost script, but the name was different. The script was called Nine-eyed Flesh Buddha.

But the content of the script provided by the apostle, as well as the information about the headless ghost, were almost exactly the same as what Yu Shu saw. The technical department concluded that the two of them encountered the same nightmare mission.

"The apostle received the ghost script three years ago, and now Yu Shu has received it again, so..." Yang Xiao looked at Beibei with complicated eyes.

"That apostle died in the nightmare mission." Beibei said bluntly, "Not only him, but all the people who participated in that mission with him died, so the ghost script will continue."

During these days in the investigation team, Yang Xiao also had a deeper understanding of the ghost script. Each ghost script represents a real supernatural event. If someone can leave the nightmare mission alive and get the resentful eye, it means the end of this supernatural event, and correspondingly, this ghost script will disappear.

Unless the original owner of the resentful eye dies, the resentful eye becomes an ownerless object and returns to the nightmare world, then after a long evolution, there may be a new ghost script. This is how the robe in Yang Xiao's hand came from, after the death of the unknown strong man.

Zhuge Zhijie scrolled down the mouse, and the corresponding information emerged one by one. "Look, according to the information left by the apostle before he disappeared, he observed more carefully than Yu Shu. He confirmed that the headless ghost that suddenly appeared in his home was a man, holding a small piece of armor fragment in his hand."

"Armor?" Yang Xiao naturally thought of the government troops who went to encircle and suppress.

"There are armor fragments in his hand, he is wearing coarse cloth clothes, and his head is chopped off. I think the identity of this ghost should be one of those bandits. They were wiped out by the government troops, their heads were taken away, and their resentment was hard to dissipate. They turned into evil ghosts and entrenched in their former territory, attacking and killing the passing government troops." Beibei analyzed.

"The apostle of the Federation was not very lucky. He sent the summarized information to the technical department of the Federation before his death, but until he entered the nightmare world, the talents of the technical department determined the specific location of the mission and did not help him." Zhuge Zhijie mourned for the poor apostle in his heart.

However, this apostle also made a contribution. After this incident, the Federation specially collected information about ghost scripts and archived them for future reference.

The mouse continued to slide down, and pictures began to appear one after another. It was a mountain with steep mountain roads, lush trees, and foggy mountains, until a strange cave appeared, in the shape of a gourd, and it was pitch black inside.

The moment she saw the cave, Yu Shu's emotions fluctuated. She grabbed the folder and wrote quickly on it: "This is it. I saw this cave in the ghost script!"

Zhuge Zhijie took a deep breath, "It seems that it is right. Your mission location this time is here. This mountain is called Longshou Mountain. The cave you are looking at is in a very remote location near the top of the mountain. The locals never approach it.

They call it Yinbing Cave."
