Escape from the Madhouse [Unlimited]

"Many years ago, there was a girl named Luna. Her husband was killed. Her heart was dug out and her limbs were cut off. Later, there were rumors that Luna was a witch. She dug out her husband's heart. , To take away his limbs is to practice some kind of spell.

"But it was actually Luna's husband who cheated. Not only did he have an affair with a third party, but he often exposed her at home. When she was beaten by her husband again, Luna killed him. Luna is indeed a witch, but what she did Everything is just for self-protection.

"As for the man's heart, it was stolen by a third party, and she also chopped up the body. She just wanted to hide the fact that she had an affair with someone, and used the identity of the Luna witch to say that she practiced witchcraft for everything. evil deeds."

Sarah answered Zhou Qian's question truthfully, and continued with a sigh, "There has never been such a terrible murder in any nearby town. The third person is a reporter. The article is well written. After her Rendering, this is when everyone talks about the witch's discoloration.

"Later, it was inexplicable...where did someone die, where did things get stolen, and which family's wife was in love with someone else...all unwarranted charges were placed on witchcraft. So—"

"In order to cover up their crimes, people blame witches for everything. That's why people hate witches so much now."

After changing the subject, Sarah said again: "In short, the fact that witches are hated by people is caused by a series of long-standing misunderstandings. We are indeed still hiding in the base camp and cannot be noticed by others. But as long as we save Lihua Town , people will discover our exploits."

At the end of the speech, Sarah's tone was full of inspiring power and a magical rendering power.

"We will cleanse all the crimes that have been placed on us! We are not evil demons. We are saviors! We will rid the town of all evil spirits and make everyone see us in a new light!

"We will not hide in the dark all our lives. One day, we will stand upright in the sunshine!"

After finishing speaking, the two witches behind her immediately echoed——

"The president is right!"

"The voice of the president is choked. You are too hard."

"These years, we have suffered too much."

"We will always follow in your footsteps!"

……

After a while, the three witches had gone to the door, waiting for the players to change their clothes before leaving with them.

Glancing at the backs of the three people standing at the door, Qi Liuxing couldn't help but whispered to Zhou Qian: "The way she said that just now... she looks like a big boss engaged in pyramid schemes."

The seldom-spoken Situ Qing seldom opened her mouth.She glanced at Qi Liuxing and said, "Didn't you realize that Zhou Qian is often like that?"

Qi Liuxing:?

Situ Qing raised her eyebrows: "It turns out that you haven't felt that you have been sold by Zhou Qian."

Qi Liuxing blinked twice, seeing that Situ Qing had changed into the black dress at some point, he immediately frowned and looked at Zhou Qian, then at Ke Yuxiao. "No way, no way. We don't really want to wear skirts, do we? Resist!"

Seeing that neither Ke Yuxiao nor Zhou Qian responded, Qi Liuxing couldn't help but his pupils trembled. "No, I am a handsome boy—"

"How old are you? You're a big man." Zhou Qian retorted him, and naturally picked up a skirt and looked it up and down, "Actually, it's not bad. Wizard robes are similar, so they won't look very feminine."

"No——" Qi Liuxing frowned deeply, "Scholars can't be humiliated, how could it be like this?! The system must be sick!"

Zhou Qian asked in surprise: "Don't you think it's exciting that a man disguised as a woman sneaks into the witch's stronghold to search for clues?"

Qi Liuxing gave him a look of "You are really sick too".

At this moment, Ke Yuxiao said: "Xiao Qi, when we first entered the dungeon, the system said that in order to adapt to the changes, there will be changes in us. This change may actually refer to the so-called 'monsterization' .

"But now the witches are exaggerating all of this as evil spirits, which may be a problem. If we enter the base camp as men, we will be attacked by real witches. We might as well pretend to go in and investigate first."

Although Qi Liuxing still looked awkward, he didn't refute after all, and obediently picked up the skirt.

Seeing this, Zhou Qian went to the study with a black skirt and black robe, and said sadly: "Situ Qing is ashamed to say that I am a pyramid scheme. Look, even if I did a pyramid scheme, I just fooled a younger brother, how is it now? It was not recruited by someone else. I waved and ran away with others. Who is really engaged in pyramid schemes? It must not be me."

Qi Liuxing was puzzled: "Zhou Qian, what are you talking about?"

"I said you won't save me when I'm in the water." Zhou Qian closed the door forcefully.

Qi Liuxing:?

Ke Yuxiao:? ?

Situ Qing: ...

Going into the study alone to change into the witch's clothes, Zhou Qian focused on the clues they had found before.

He vaguely captured something in his mind, he stepped forward, put a few items into his bag, and then opened the door to return to the living room.

·

10 minute later.

All seven players wore witches' black skirts, black robes, cloaks, and black gauze masks. They left Eva's residence and walked into the town occupied by weird animals and plants.

The three witches led everyone forward with ease, and it was obvious that what they said was true. They often came here to look for survivors, or to kill evil spirits, because the roads they walked happened to have few flowers and plants.

In this way, everyone can quickly leave through the town.

Otherwise, it would be very difficult to find a way among the giant flowers and plants in the city without anyone leading the way.

Soon, Zhou Qian and his party followed the witch to the edge of the town, then they crossed a small bridge and walked into a forest.

All the trees in the woods are also very strange, they are several times the size of ordinary trees, there are almost no straight trunks, they are all crooked, and there are even disgusting knots on the trunks, as if they have grown out of thin air. Meatballs.

A bus was parked at the end of the woods.

When the witches beckoned everyone to get on the bus, Zhou Qian didn't go up immediately, but looked over from the other side of the forest - there was actually a town not far away.

There seemed to be some kind of invisible barrier between the town on the opposite side and the woods.It's like a new world over there - no exotic flowers and plants, just a normal town.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Qian saw a strange butterfly flying over again. One side of its body was a normal butterfly wing, but a huge meat ball grew on the other half of the wing, which was terrifying and disgusting.

When the butterfly was about to fly away from the woods to the opposite town, it seemed that it hit something in the air, or was intercepted by some invisible force, so that it didn't move forward, so it had to turn around immediately and fly back again.

A large shadow suddenly appeared above the players' heads, and it disappeared after a long while.

That was caused by the huge butterfly flying over their heads when they turned back.

After a while, when all the staff boarded the bus, the driver drove away.

The driver was covered in a black robe, and he should be the No.4 witch waiting here.

As for the three witches before, after getting on the bus, the two witches sat at the back of the bus, and Sarah, the president, sat in the front row.

The players chose seats in the middle of the bus.

Zhou Qian sat directly next to Sarah.

Probably the sealed bus can also protect against evil spirits, so at this moment Sarah took off the mask and cloak.

Looking from the side, Zhou Qian could see her tall nose and long golden eyelashes.

He had to sigh again, Sarah was really beautiful, and she was a rare androgynous beauty.

Although she wears quite heavy makeup, but I don't know if it's because she holds an important position and leads an association, her temperament is not feminine at all.

And looking past her perfect face, Zhou Qian could see that every time he turned a corner, the driver deliberately avoided the main road and took a detour into the small road to leave.

Zhou Qian noticed in particular that there was a sign on the secret mountain road that he passed just now.

It read: "If you get lost on the mountain, or encounter any difficulties, you can call the mayor's hotline: 26-111."

Mayor?It's just that the system mentioned... why would he like to play "24" point mayor?

Zhou Qian narrowed his eyes, pretending he didn't see anything.

Then he turned his head, looked at Sarah again and asked, "What happened to that... the town across the woods just now?"

Sarah turned her head and met his gaze without hesitation.

The eyes of the two are black and the other blue, and they look at each other in this weird copy.

Sarah said with her unique melodious voice: "That is also the new Lihua Town. It was repaired not long ago. It is the place where the townspeople live after they moved. The river before entering the forest is called Xiaobai River. The river The north side of the river is a place infected by evil spirits. The south side of the river is safe for the time being."

"That's right." A witch added from behind, "Thanks to our guild leader for setting up a magic barrier at the end of the forest. As you saw just now, that strange butterfly didn't fly over."

"That's it...the president, you are so great." Zhou Qian looked at Sarah, praised him very sincerely, and couldn't help asking, "Then do you know what's going on with the 'Strawberry Music Festival'? It's held every year. hold?"

"Yes." Sarah said, "That is the children's favorite festival. There are many strawberry gardens on Vail Mountain. Every March 3st, the mayor of the town will organize the children to go there to pick strawberries. On this day, the mayor will also invite many The singers from the band came to perform for the children and let everyone celebrate the festival. Well...it was a very good experience for every child on that day.

"Where is Weishan?" Zhou Qian asked.

Sarah said: "It's at the northernmost point of Lihua Town."

"So..." Zhou Qian asked her, "Where is it also polluted by evil spirits?"

"Yes. That's the most serious place." Sarah said.

"These strange plants here... are also because of being possessed by evil spirits?" Zhou Qian asked.

"It should be." Sarah said, "There is only one explanation. People are infected by evil spirits and become murderous monsters. Plants can't kill people, but they also become strange."

What else did Zhou Qian ask, Sarah turned her head to look at him, and made a serious gesture of silence. "We're going to the base camp soon. Don't talk, so as not to reveal your secrets. The few of us sitting on this bus don't have any grudges against wizards. But the others don't. If you encounter someone who bullies you, forget it . Seriously...they might kill you."

Hearing this, Zhou Qian said nothing on the face, but secretly went to the system trading shop to buy items.

He remembered seeing someone selling voice changers.

At this moment, he found that it was still hanging in the trading house, and there were many voices to choose from.

Zhou Qian smiled and ordered a [Meng Meng Da Loli Voice] voice changer, and then gave it to Qi Liuxing for free.

Of course, he didn't forget to place an order for himself [Sexy Midnight Female Anchor Voice].

·

Weier Mountain is located in the northernmost part of Lihua Town, where the Strawberry Music Festival is held on March 3 every year.

I don't know what went wrong with this year's music festival. The northern towns including Vail Mountain have completely changed. The plants have become strange, and many children have also become strange, and even started killing people.

People left their original homes and rebuilt a small town in the nearby south.

So far, in the southern town separated from the northern town by a forest and a river, everything seems to be normal.

This is the information Zhou Qian obtained along the way.

It took about an hour from Eva's house to the witch's base camp.

Everyone's points dropped a little.

Zhou Qian's current life points are "22".

The witch base camp is located deep in the valley. The bus drove along a very steep mountain path and brought everyone here.

The upper part of the valley was buried by countless clouds and mist. When people looked down from a high place, they would only think that this place was a cliff. No one thought that there was a base camp for witches at the bottom of the cliff.

The base camp was built like an ordinary village, consisting of many one-story houses. There are also a lot of vegetables and fruits grown here, so the witches can support themselves.

Not long after getting off the bus, Zhou Qian and his party met a woman.

She has long brown wavy hair, and she is squatting on the side of the road at the moment. With a pale face and a sad face, she puts stones one by one on the road in a certain shape, as if she is casting a spell.

When she saw Sarah, she stood up and nodded at her. "The president is back. This is..."

Glancing in the direction behind her, she squeezed out a pale, but also very heartfelt smile: "Sure enough, the survivors were found. Thank you for your hard work. You have to go to the town to search in the afternoon, right? You can call Me. It's my turn to help."

"These survivors were found at your house." Sarah explained to Eva, then turned her head and introduced to everyone, "This is Eva. I don't know how you were trapped in her house. You can Talk to her. I have other things to do. Eva, it's up to you to arrange their accommodation."

After speaking, Sarah led the other three witches away.

Eva looked at Zhou Qian and the others with some excitement.

Of course, she couldn't see their faces clearly.

Sarah specifically reminded them that in order not to reveal their men's identities, even if this place is not infested by evil spirits, they still have to put on their masks first.So the seven players all wrapped themselves up tightly at this moment.

"You, why did you show up at my house? Did you go to the study?" Eva asked.

"Yes." Zhou Qian answered, "Why...we came to your study?"

Eva sighed: "I once cast a summoning spell in the study, saying that I could communicate with people from other worlds. I originally wanted to find my daughter's soul. I didn't expect it to be so many days... I brought you here. I'm sorry , brought you to Lihua Town. The place has been taken over by evil spirits. Fortunately...President Sarah found you."

In this way, Eva's words explained the background of why the player appeared in this world.

After listening to her words, Zhou Qian couldn't help asking: "Your daughter..."

Eva was in tears at this time, and she seemed to be too sad to control herself.

Squatting down, she continued to set up the stone formation on the side of the road, and replied in a low voice: "She is dead, I set up the formation here, just thinking... Maybe her soul is still in this world. I want to communicate with her. This The formation can guide her soul to come here to find me."

"What happened to her, can you tell us? Otherwise..."

Zhou Qian exchanged glances with the rest of the players behind him, his tone sank, and he said threateningly, "We will think you are a murderer. After all, we found two corpses in your home. Although we came from 'different world' Yes, but we can also call the police and bring you to justice."

——When I came to the witch's base camp, I actually met Eva, which was really a windfall.Zhou Qian had to seize the opportunity to ask about the details of the matter.

When Zhou Qian asked a question, his expression was very natural, without any discomfort at all.

Qi Liuxing behind him frowned more and more as he listened.

He really felt that Zhou Qian's midnight sexy female anchor's voice was simply... so that he couldn't describe it in words.

"I didn't kill her... she was killed by an evil spirit!" Eva said with red eyes, "You saw two corpses... one was in the freezer, right? It belonged to my daughter's good friend Lina corpse.

"My daughter Lili was possessed by an evil spirit, and the evil spirit used her hand to kill Lina. I went home that morning and saw everything... Seeing Lina's heart being hollowed out, I realized something was wrong!

"At that time, my daughter was already dead. Her body was occupied by evil spirits, and her soul has gone to nowhere..."

Eva's next narration was similar to Zhou Qian's previous speculation, but more details were filled in.

According to Eva's story, when she came home in the early morning of the next day of the Strawberry Music Festival, Lily's appearance had not yet turned into a monster.

She immediately realized that her daughter must be possessed by an evil spirit.Although Lili and Lina are not biological sisters, they have a very good relationship. Lili definitely has no possibility of killing Lina.What's more, she is a child, where does she have the strength to dig out someone's heart with bare hands?

After killing Lina, Lili's physical body may not be able to withstand the power of the evil spirit for a while.So when Eva came home, Lily's physical body was in a fainted state.

On the rug where she's passed out, there's an overturned bottle of nail polish.Maybe she and Lina were painting each other's nail polish before the murder.But the accident happened so unexpectedly.

Knowing that something had happened to her daughter, Eva immediately took advantage of her drowsiness and took advantage of her convenient status as a nurse to give her an injection of anesthesia, and finally cut off one of her fingers and part of her hair, trying to cast a spell to forcibly Call her spirit back.

But it doesn't help.

She could not feel her daughter's soul.

Hearing this, Zhou Qian finally had an answer to what happened to the fingers and hair in the closet.

Also, the finger was cut off before Lily's body became monstrous, which is why it didn't change like the rest of her body.

Eva continued: "In the beginning, I didn't attack the monster directly. Because I was still fantasizing... maybe I can continue to think of a way, and one day I can call back my daughter's soul. I have to make sure that my daughter's body is in good health." Only then can her soul come back to life when she returns to her body. So I just locked the evil spirit in the house at first."

Sighing deeply, Eva wiped her tears and said, "But things gradually got out of my control. Her face was the first to change, with fleshy balls growing on it, and her tongue became two petals." .As for her forehead, there are... dark green scale-like things growing out...

"After that, her limbs and torso were all destroyed. That description is not enough to use the word 'monster' to describe it."

"Finally, I received instructions from President Sarah... The child in her neighbor's house turned into a monster and ate the whole family. This, this is really terrible. I can't let the evil spirits in my house go on like that .Once it becomes stronger and stronger and I can't control it...it will kill more people. I can only get rid of it, and cut up my daughter's body that it lives on, and put them in different place, so that the evil spirits can be sealed. You now...

"If you take out the limbs, it will destroy my formation. I'm really afraid that you released that evil spirit... the consequences will be disastrous. But Sarah will definitely check with a crystal ball. She can bring you here, You should be all right. It's a blessing in disguise."

The daughter was possessed by an evil spirit. In order to prevent it from harming others, the daughter's body had to be dismembered.

This is a very cruel thing for anyone.But at the same time, it is a very great act of killing relatives.

So at this time, Eva's expression appeared very contradictory.

When it came to dismembering the body, she burst into tears at first, but then realized that her daughter had been killed by an evil spirit long ago, and she just divided a useless body into different parts to form a formation, When sealing the evil spirits, she felt that she had made a contribution to the other people in the town, so her eyes actually shone faintly again.

As a mother, she was sad about this matter.

But as a witch, and as a witch who wants to contribute to the people of the town, she is proud of herself.

It can be seen that she is deeply influenced by Sarah.

Every witch here seems to be influenced by Sarah.

After wiping away her tears and adding a few more stones, Eva stood up and said to the players: "You have seen what the town has become. We are really doing things for the town. I Definitely not a murderer. Let's go, I will arrange a place for you."

Now that the matter has come to this point, the players have no choice but to follow Eva and go deep into the base camp where the witch is hiding.

On the way, Zhou Qian noticed that one side of the entire road was completely occupied by small stones arranged in a certain shape.

It was one spirit-calling formation after another.

They are neatly arranged, showing a little weirdness, as if they can really play a role in guiding lost souls back.

Why are there so many summoning formations?

How many people died?

Zhou Qian and his party will soon leave the road and walk towards the well-repaired house.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Qian glanced at something out of the corner of his eye, and when he turned his head to look to the left, he saw a large cemetery next to a lush green vegetable field.

The scale of the cemetery is not small, and there are at least dozens of tombstones.

A very bad premonition and guess had already been fully formed in Zhou Qian's mind by this time.

He stopped and looked at Eva, and asked quite seriously, "These tombstones... don't they all belong to the children?"

Eva replied: "Yes. But there are no bones under the tombstone. After all, they are still in various places in the town. These can only be regarded as cenotaphs, that is, as a memorial. The tombstone I made for my daughter Lily...tomb Buried is her favorite barrette."

Behind Zhou Qian, Ke Yuxiao obviously thought of the same terrible thing as him.

He asked, "Could it be that all the children in Lihua Town...are dead?"

"Yes. They're all dead." Eva's pale face was even more bloodless from the sun.

She said: "Almost all the children in the town went to the music festival. When they came back, they were all possessed by evil spirits. Like Lina, those who were sick and had a fever and didn't go because of other things might be possessed by evil spirits." A friend with a body cut out the heart, or the stomach."

·

the other side.Li Buhui's left wrist trembled, and when he looked down, he saw a message from the female warrior Yin Jiujiu.

"I have some ideas about action. You are ready. Follow my instructions. I may start at any time."
