I became a system virus

People made a rough count of the picture frames Yuxi in the attic, and there are a total of 107 pieces.

According to Wu Yue, these paintings should be unfinished works, so they were sealed away by the owner.

Yi Qiubai was inspired by it, and thoughtfully said: "Shen Li's personal experience said that his inspiration was exhausted in the later period. Could it be that these paintings were not completed due to other factors during that period?"

Ron: "What you said seems to be really like that."

Wu Yue nodded, "I also tend to say this, otherwise these paintings cannot be explained reasonably."

Takano looked carefully at those picture frames, and there seemed to be no clues hidden.

Then people searched the attic carefully again, but nothing else was found.

The magic stick said: "Since there is an attic, will there be a basement or something?"

Yi Qiubai: "Then go down and look for it."

A group of people closed the door and went downstairs to the main hall. With attic experience, they focused on checking the walls and floors.

Not to mention, after a lot of tossing, someone really discovered the clue.

One wall was also a fake wall, and when it was pulled open, an iron door was exposed, but there was a piece of talisman paper stuck on the iron door.

The fat man opened his voice and said, "God stick, come and see, what is this thing?"

Shenzhu stepped forward to check it, frowned and said, "The talisman drawn on it is very strange, and I can't understand it."

Gao Ye: "Open it and go in and have a look."

Some players asked: "Is the talisman paper on the door used to ward off evil spirits?"

Magic Stick: "Maybe it's for the town."

Takano repeated his old trick and opened the door after a while.

Looking at his actions, Yi Qiubai couldn't help but said, "Sometimes I doubt your profession."

Takano: "???"

Yi Qiubai: "You seem to be very familiar with the human body. You have a talent for languages. You can also play with two hands. Although you are amateurish in picking locks, you are better than ordinary people."

Takano: "So what exactly are you trying to say?"

Yi Qiubai: "What did you do before?"

Gao Ye: "I seem to have told you that the profession is to dissect the dead."

Xiang Qiang complained: "It's very good at cutting the aorta."

Gao Ye: "I know a little bit of everything, but I am not proficient, I understand a little."

Yi Qiubai rolled his eyes in contempt.

Gently opened the iron door, the air circulated, and a strange smell came out from inside.

Wu Yue immediately jumped far away, "What's the smell, it's killing me!"

People all dispersed.

The magic stick sniffed it, and said solemnly: "It's a bit like the smell of spoiled incense ash mixed with oil."

Everyone: "???"

Fatty: "Sesame oil?"

God stick: "No, sesame oil."

Everyone: "..."

Can you two be a little more serious.

The stone ladder inside extends downwards, and it looks like a basement.

Gao Ye pressed the switch on the wall, and the light turned on. He said, "Go in and have a look."

People walked in one after another, the basement was damp and cold, Yi Qiubai couldn't help shivering, his arms were covered with goosebumps.

Wu Yue said: "It's so cold."

Everyone followed suit, it was indeed quite cold.

After turning two turns along the stone steps, a female player was frightened by the sudden appearance and screamed.

The big men present were a little apprehensive.

The scene in the basement was similar to that of a funeral. Two paper figurines of boys and girls stood there eerie, their facial features painted exaggerated and distorted.

The fat man blurted out: "Fuck! This look is too scary!"

Even the magic stick was a little frightened, but Gao Ye quickly calmed down and said, "Why is there a needle on the top of the paper figurine's head?"

Wu Yue: "Where is it, why didn't I see it?"

Gao Ye pointed, and Yi Qiubai asked in confusion, "Is there anything special about it?"

God stick: "I don't understand either."

Strange symbols were painted on the surrounding walls, perhaps painted with blood, and the color had already turned brown.

On a huge incense table is enshrined a puppet made of unknown materials. It is a woman's face, sitting on a lotus throne, looking quite dignified.

Someone asked, "Is this the Bodhisattva offered?"

Magic Stick: "This is not like a Bodhisattva."

The tribute has long since decayed, and it can be seen from the remaining incense sticks that it was often enshrined in the past.

Strange patterns were drawn regularly on the ground, and in a circle were painted things like eight children, circling around the lotus in the center.

The magic stick looked at it for a long time but couldn't figure out what the picture was.

Gao Ye said indifferently: "The dungeon, I always like to confuse us with silly things. In the final analysis, there is only one purpose, and it will kill people at night."

Fatty: "Brother Ye got it right."

Yi Qiubai: "I'm confused when I see these things. What exactly is the main mission in this dungeon?"

Wu Yue: "Could it be to solve these puzzles?"

Yi Qiubai: "???"

Xiang Qiang: "I think it's probably the reason why Shen Li committed suicide."

Gao Ye: "This is a line of thought. We learned that the owner of the old house committed suicide as soon as we arrived, and it was quite clear."

The magic stick: "Could Shen Li's death be related to these strange settings?" He asked again, "In other words, did he arrange these things?"

Xiang Qiang: "It should be done by himself, how can normal people do such nonsense?"

God Stick: "No, what I mean is, did he arrange these layouts after his death, or did they exist during his lifetime?"

This question stopped people.

If it was there during his lifetime, it probably has nothing to do with him, but what if it was laid out after his death?

This is interesting.

Yi Qiubai analyzed: "It seems that the first thing we need to find out is why Shen Li died."

Takano: "Yes, this is the first point."

Fatty: "What about the second point?"

Yi Qiubai: "Naturally, it is necessary to find out whether these layouts were made during his lifetime or after his death."

Gao Ye: "It seems to be lunch time, why is there still no movement?"

Everyone looked at him, Gao Ye: "If you don't eat and drink enough, how can you play with ghosts at night?"

Everyone: "..."

It seems reasonable.

The system seemed to have heard his complaint, and after a while, a crisp bell sounded, indicating that dinner was ready.

People went up curiously, and the prepared food was placed in the yard, but when they saw the food on the table, Takano became irritable, "Is this fucking for living people?"

The fat man said in disbelief, "This is a sacrifice."

Live pig's head, live fish, freshly slaughtered chicken...

Everyone was completely stunned, this was the first time they encountered such a situation.

Yi Qiubai said: "Would there be a living person to eat after a while?"

Xiang Qiang: "It looks like it's hanging."

The magic stick seemed to think of something, and said, "I have a solution."

Everyone: "???"

"Who will help me get these things down?"

Takano: "It means let the dead eat it before we eat it, right?"

God stick: "Since this is a tomb of the living, it must be the dead."

Gao Ye said helplessly: "Okay, I believe you."

People took some fruits and chickens and fish to the basement, replaced the offerings with magic sticks, and bowed devoutly to the enshrined woman, saying: "We have offended you by coming from afar, please forgive me."

After kowtowing three times, a strange thing happened, a smell of food came from above, and all the raw food just now was replaced with something for living people to eat.

It's wicked!

No, the fat man said loudly: "Brother Ye, we have something to eat!"

Shenzhu happily said: "Go up."

Gao Ye: "You still know the routine."

Magic stick: "Hey, the plot needs it."

The food in the yard is very abundant, which is about the same as the normal level.

People washed their hands and sat down to eat. The fat man said: "Everyone should eat a little bit, the sky is getting dark, there must be a show to watch tonight."

Gao Ye: "Don't eat too much, in case you can't run."

Fatty: "I have to be worthy of the dignity of being called Fatty."

Everyone laughed.

After the meal, everyone rested for a while, seeing that the sky was completely dark, people went back to their rooms to rest.

Yi Qiubai and Gao Ye walked into the room at the top of the stairs, and said to Qiang with a serious expression, "I wish you a happy night life."

Takano: "???"

Yi Qiubai: "???"

Everyone: "..."

Why does it sound weird?

Wu Yue: "Brother Ye, you must call if you have anything to do."

Fatty: "Yes, the louder the better!"

Gao Ye: "Why did I call?"

Yi Qiubai: "Are you afraid that I will use too much force?"

Everyone: "..."

What the hell are you two talking about?

After entering the room separately, Takano slumped on the bed carelessly, looking at the ceiling above.

Yi Qiubai rummaged through boxes and cabinets silently, while Gao Ye lightly stroked the bed made of Liuzhou wood, and said with emotion: "I'm also a person who has seen the world."

Yi Qiubai: "???"

Gao Ye: "Liuzhou wood is purely hand-cast, high-end and elegant, and you can lie down and feel refreshed!"

Yi Qiubai: "..."

Gao Ye: "What are you still fiddling with, come here, lie down and sleep."

Yi Qiubai: "I can't sleep."

Takano: "That won't work, we have to give the NPC some time to perform, this is the most basic professional ethics for players."

Yi Qiubai: "..."

Well, that makes a lot of sense.

Time passed by, and when he fell asleep in the middle of the night, a strange rustling sound came from the stairs, and Yi Qiubai whispered: "Here we come."

Gao Ye let out a "hmm", put his hands on his waist, held his breath and listened to the movement outside.

The two tensed their nerves, not daring to be careless.

After an unknown amount of time, two sheets of paper as thin as onion's wings squeezed in through the crack of the door.

At that time, Yi Qiubai was sleeping with his face facing the door, his eyes were quietly opened a slit and he glanced at it, pretending that he didn't know anything.

After the piece of paper entered the room, its body gradually swelled, and it quickly returned to the appearance seen in the basement like blowing up a balloon.

They cautiously walked towards the two lying on the bed, the boy paper figurine approached Yi Qiubai, he sneezed suddenly, blowing the paper figurine to the wall and sticking it.

paper man:"!!!"

Yi Qiubai: "???"

Another girl paper figurine quietly walked to the other side, ready to blow on Gao Ye, but Gao Ye turned his face to the back of Yi Qiubai's head calmly.

The girl paper figurine made persistent efforts, and walked towards Yi Qiubai's face again, that guy simply slept on his stomach.

Girl paper figurine: "..."

The paper figurines pasted on the wall seemed not to dare to make a sound to wake them up, and twisted their bodies cautiously.

Just when the girl's paper figurine wanted to blow on the high field, he quietly blew into Yi Qiubai's ear, and the hot air penetrated into the ear, making it itchy.

Yi Qiubai turned over uncontrollably, the girl paper figurine hurriedly pressed her face to it, but the guy took something in his hand and stabbed the paper figurine with lightning speed.

Just hearing a "pop", the paper man leaked air and exploded like a balloon.

This made the boy's paper on the wall so angry that it immediately increased several times, showing a ferocious expression, and rushed towards the two people on the bed.
