Chosen Prophet [Unlimited]

This is the first time a player has died in this game.

The already oppressive garden gives people a sense of suffocation.

The inch-cut man couldn't help but let out a long sigh: "The incident in Zouping reminded me. This is not a modern society governed by laws and morals. Some people have a weak sense of morality and complete egoism. I'm afraid they will be a little bit encouraged when they come here. , will go to harm people. We all have to be careful in the future. Maybe there will be some pitfalls. Hey, this fucking kid-"

Speaking of this, he remembered that he almost burped his fart because of the violent behavior, and he still had lingering fears, so he couldn't hold back and scolded Zou Ping severely.

After scolding a lot, the inch-cut man finally felt comfortable, and then looked at girl No. 1 and asked, "By the way, do you know what the poison he injected is? We have to guard against it!"

Girl No. 1 shook her head, but Lin Yuechuan said, "I know."

The inch-cut man was surprised. "how do you know?"

Lin Yuechuan walked in front of the team and led the other three to the stone arch bridge.

Raising his finger to the plants beside the bridge, he said, "There are traces of being picked here."

Looking in the direction of his finger, Duan Yi found that the whole area was basically green, except for a large piece in the middle, and there were traces of soil renovation. Rhizomes in the soil.

The cropped man couldn't help but ask, "You mean this plant is poisonous? What the hell is this?"

Lin Yuechuan said: "This is a branch of Artemisia in Snow Mountain. It can be used to make medicinal wine. It has a miraculous effect on promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis and reducing swelling. It's just that this medicine cannot be taken internally. It contains a variety of aconitine. Use the water or Alcohol is highly toxic."

Girl No. 1 stared wide-eyed: "Aconitine? This is highly poisonous, 3 mg can be fatal. It can act on nerves and cause arrhythmia... The symptoms of No. 5 just now are consistent with it."

Duan Yi looked at Lin Yuechuan, and couldn't help but ask, "What did you major in in college? Botany? Traditional Chinese Medicine?"

Lin Yuechuan said calmly: "The big data collection and management major of the School of Information."

Duan Yi: "..."

After a while, the four of them went back to the mansion, in order to find out where the poisonous water or wine was hidden.

After entering the building, Zou Ping was not in the living room, and he didn't know if he had no face to see everyone, so he hid in the room alone.

Instead, he left a note on the long table. "In the glass bottle on the shoe cabinet in the entrance is water soaked with poisonous weeds. I used this water to make soy milk for number 5 this morning. Because he is the only one who drinks soy milk. I haven't tampered with other foods."

After reading this note, the inch-cut man was very disdainful. "I don't trust him. I can't even eat from the kitchen."

Girl No. 1 thought for a while, and said: "There are still a few cans, so it is unlikely to be poisoned. We can share the cans."

The inch-cut man was hungry, so he rushed into the kitchen, found a box of canned food and tore it open. "Hey, canned braised pork, it's pretty good. You should eat some too. How about this afternoon? Continue to explore? But I feel like we've turned this place upside down. How do we get out?"

Duan Yi said: "This is a dungeon with two-star difficulty, so it should not be difficult. The reason why we are still stuck here must be because there is a fundamental problem with our way of clearing the level."

After saying this, he went to the shoe cabinet first, picked up the glass bottle half filled with poisonous water, and went to the kitchen.He poured all the poisonous water into the sink, rinsed the glass bottle several times, and then threw it into the trash can.

After finishing all this, Duan Yi also took a can.But he didn't eat it directly, but just held it in his hand.

Then he turned around and walked out of the building again.

Lin Yuechuan stopped him: "Brother Xiaoyi, where are you going?"

Duan Yi said: "I want to visit Chu Qing's tomb again."

The solitary tomb and the green grave are covered with green grass.

Standing quietly in front of the tombstone, Duan Yi crossed his arms and stared at the word "Chu Qing", and went through her story in his mind.

Chu Qing and the male opera are a loving couple. They got married because of the opera. After getting married, they lived in this dream garden and lived a life like a fairy couple.But later Chu Qing's voice was damaged and she couldn't sing. She couldn't accept this and chose to commit suicide.

After she died, Zhou Zhenan found a puppet to replace her.He sang with the puppet, as if Chu Qing was still accompanying him on stage.

At the same time, in order to revive Chu Qing, Zhou Zhen'an found an ancient book, which records that in front of Kunlun Yu, killing a person who was born on the same day of the same year and the same month can sacrifice the soul of this person to Kunlun Yu, Chu Qing can be resurrected.

Zhou Zhenan found Kunlun Yu and killed one person, but Chu Qing failed to survive, so he killed 47 more.

Now Duan Yi and the others have found 48 corpses and the diary of the 48th victim.

However, the contents of the victim's diary said that Zhou Zhen'an wanted to kill 49 people.

Therefore, players speculate that there is a hidden condition related to "49" in the resurrection magic, and there may be an undiscovered second page in the ancient book.

It is probably because of finding these clues and hearing the speculations of the players that Zou Ping was moved - he thought that as long as he killed one more player, he would be able to help Zhou Zhenan reach the goal of "49", and everyone would be able to go out. up.

Furthermore, girl No. 6 probably got other clues, which pointed to No. 5.As her wolf teammate, Zou Ping got this information from her, so in the end he chose to kill No. 5.

But since she died on the 5th, Chu Qing didn't live, and everyone didn't pass the level.

Inferring from this result, the death of No. 5 is not a condition for customs clearance.

At this time, Duan Yi silently read "Rabbit Nursery Rhymes" again.

There are two key words in the nursery rhyme: "The big rabbit is sick" and "The five rabbits are dead".They didn't find too many clues before, so they could only speculate in the direction that Chu Qing could live if No. 5 died.

But thinking about it now, No. 5 is Chu Qing's scapegoat, this speculation is problematic.

Because Chu Qing died immediately, she didn't get sick like the big rabbit in the nursery rhyme, she shouldn't point to the big rabbit in the nursery rhyme, so the five rabbits shouldn't point to player 5 either.

So no matter judging from the results or the nursery rhymes, No. 5 is not a so-called scapegoat at all, he really died unjustly.

So where is the problem?

Closing his eyes, Duan Yi carefully recalled the diary of the 48th victim.

——"He has killed 47 people, I may be the 48th. Seven seven 49... Maybe he will stop when he kills 49 people... So, don't come here! Don't be the 49th victim !"

One stroke clearly emerged in my mind.

In the end, Duan Yi's gaze was fixed on the words "maybe" and "49".

Think about it carefully, what is the background of this victim writing this diary?

At that time, he was being hunted down by Zhou Zhenan.During the escape, he may have temporarily hid somewhere.He knew he couldn't escape, so he wrote this diary in the last time of his life, in order to expose Zhou Zhenan's crimes and hope that no one would be killed again.Even though there may be little hope of knowing that this lead will be found, it is the only thing he can do for himself and for the other victims before he dies.

Therefore, he will emphasize the fact that Zhou Zhenan killed people in his diary, and warn everyone not to come to this garden.

But why Zhou Zhenan killed people and how many people he wanted to kill, this victim has no idea at all!

The sound of Zhou Zhenan's footsteps may have lingered nearby, and the victim was in a great panic.Under such circumstances, not every sentence in the diary he wrote could stand up to scrutiny.

In various folklore in China, there are often words such as nine nine 81 and seven seven 49.

Therefore, seeing that Zhou Zhenan had killed 47 people, the 48th victim would logically speculate whether he needed to kill 49 people, and then used the words "maybe" and "49".

He didn't have extra time to analyze and argue. In that case, he just recorded the thought that flashed in his mind along the way, leaving as much information as possible for future reference.

Therefore, the so-called "49" may simply be his speculation.

What's more, the garden is not big, and everyone has searched every corner.This means that there may not really be a second page for the broken pages of ancient books.The conditions for resurrecting Chu Qing had been fully and clearly written on that page of the ancient book.

In this way, all the facts can only prove one thing - the condition for resurrecting Chu Qing is to take the Kunlun jade and kill a person who was born on the same day as her.

Zhou Zhenan's continuous killing has nothing to do with the number 49.

He just kept killing Chu Qing because he failed to resurrect Chu Qing again and again.That's all.

The so-called "49" is just a misunderstanding from beginning to end.

——Everyone completely misunderstood the direction of customs clearance.

Opening his eyes, Duan Yi looked at Qingfen in front of him again.

The tomb was well repaired, not just burying people hastily in the soil, the tomb was built like a small bungalow with high-quality blue bricks, it was very strong, enough to show Zhou Zhenan's importance to Chu Qing.

After staring at the tombstone for a long time, footsteps came from behind Duan Yi. It was Lin Yuechuan, the man with the cut hair and girl No. 1.

"Brother Yi, did you find anything?" Lin Yuechuan asked.

Duan Yi said slowly: "I complained about "The Peony Pavilion". Three years after Du Liniang's death, Liu Mengmei found her soul, dug her grave and opened her coffin, allowing her soul to return to her body and be resurrected. I think this story Not true, because Du Liniang has been dead for three years, her body must have been boneless long ago. How can she use the dead body to revive her soul? But—"

"But what?"

"Although I don't believe this story, Zhou Zhenan believes in it. He has sung this play since he was a child. He must have believed in the content of this play, and even made himself a character in the play. Even if Chu Qing died, he would still He refused to wake up from the play. He thought that just like Liu Mengmei waited for Du Liniang's soul, he could also wait for Chu Qing's soul. But... maybe he was wrong."

Duan Yi's words made the people who heard it shudder, especially the guy with the cropped head, he couldn't help but hugged his arms tightly. "Brother, what do you mean by this?"

"What I mean is—" Duan Yi frowned, "From Zhou Zhenan's perspective, he will wait until Chu Qing's soul returns, and then he will dig the grave and open the coffin to introduce this soul into her body. The result of too much influence of the play. But he overlooked one thing - the broken pages of the ancient books did not explain the specific way of resurrecting the dead."

Pausing for a moment, Duan Yi turned around and walked towards the mansion, and said in a deep voice, "What we have to do now is to dig up this grave."

The inch-cut man was shocked. "Is this wrong? What if Zhou Zhen'an thinks that we insulted Chu Qing and wants to kill us?"

Duan Yi shook his head: "We and Zhou Zhenan were both wrong. We all thought that she didn't come back because the resurrection magic failed. But have you ever thought that maybe Chu Qing has been resurrected?"

The inch-cut man was frightened into a cold sweat.

Duan Yi pointed to the location of the grave. "Chu Qing may already be alive. It's just that she was sealed in a coffin."

"Damn it, it's a big mess——!!!"

The hair on the body of the inch-cut man stood up, "The coffin is not airtight. Then she lived and died in it, and died and lived again?!"
