hearse drift

Qiqi's incident was like a boulder being thrown into the calm water, causing waves of a thousand layers high among the crowd, which sounded a wake-up call for everyone.

——There are already non-human things lurking among them, and those things have the purpose of taking the skin of others.

It is not feasible to not communicate or share clues like this all the time. Not only does communication need to be communicated, but also a secret code that only people you trust can know, so as to confirm the identity of the other party.

However, before that, you have to make sure that all the people present are "people".

"How did those monsters replace normal people?"

Qiqi's body was salvaged by the servants, and after soaking for half an hour, the body was swollen beyond shape.

The long gash on the back of the corpse reminded everyone that two young girls died in such a muddle-headed way.

Someone pointed the finger at Xiang Luping: "Xiang Luping, this is your girlfriend, have you noticed anything unusual in the past two days?"

Xiang Luping sat alone in the corner, he couldn't tell whether he was sad or not from the corners of his tightly pursed mouth. After hearing this question, he glanced at the corpse on the ground with gloomy eyes, and said coldly: "No."

He didn't look like he was lying, and besides, they remembered how sweet they were at the dinner table in the morning, and if anything, how could he be so intimate.

But even so, there are still lingering fears.

"If he said no, then he didn't? What if he was also transferred?" Someone yelled, but the voice was not loud, and he didn't dare to look Xiang Luping in the eyes as if he had a guilty conscience.

Although this is a bit unreasonable, it is true that this possibility cannot be ruled out.

The person who said this is just the epitome of everyone's doubts.

Xiang Luping snorted coldly, and stood up from the corner: "If you are worried, I can avoid it, right?"

After he finished speaking, he strode out of the hall.

Fang Li looked at his back, but felt that he really didn't care about these things.And his hurried footsteps seemed more like he was in a hurry to confirm something...

Xiang Luping's voluntary departure did not completely dispel the doubts of this group of people.

They drove the suspicious elements out of the hall bluntly or tactfully, and to Fang Li's relief, Xiao Ke was among them.

This group of people is not stupid. Although they still don't know the clues of the dungeon, after recalling the abnormality on Qiqi's body, they quickly realized that maybe all of this has something to do with the housekeeper.Xiao Ke, who also had close contact with the housekeeper, was naturally listed as a dangerous object.

After removing all suspicious persons, only Fang Li and the others were left present.

The seven people sat around the table, saying that they wanted to share the clues they had, but no one started it for a long time.

Fang Li and Zhu Yicheng looked at each other and signaled with their eyes: "Shall I come?"

Zhu Yicheng nodded.

So Fang Li said: "The content of this dungeon is actually 'Painted Skin'."

Except for Zhao Xiaotong and Yu Jiaxi, the other three had different expressions. It could be seen that one of the three knew the content of the dungeon, and the other two had blank looks across their faces.

After the daze passed, it turned into consternation.

"This dungeon is a painted skin?! No wonder..." No wonder the ghosts here always want to peel off human skin, and even now there are monsters pretending to be other people's skins.

"How did you know?" It was Mu Junbo who spoke, and he looked at Fang Li suspiciously, as if to say: Everyone came from other cars out of order, why is it just your copy of the fifth car? Understand so clearly.

In view of the fact that Fang Li saw this man abandoning his girlfriend and running away not long ago, Fang Li actually didn't like him very much from the bottom of his heart.

Facing Mu Junbo's question, he said calmly, "I saw it by accident before entering the dungeon."

The train will announce the content of dungeons identified as low-level to mid-level on the big screen, but most of the time, people will only pay attention to what dungeon they are going to enter next, and rarely pay attention to others.

"I testify, in fact, I saw it before I came in." The third person spoke. This person was bald, under 30 years old, with thick eyebrows, and looked a bit fierce from his face.

Perhaps it was Fang Li's first confession that won him a little bit of goodwill. The bald brother relaxed a little, and the other party showed a more friendly smile.

Although with his natural villain appearance, he can't tell that he is even half-friendly with this expression.

Of course, the content of the dungeon is the matter of painted skin. If you know it, you know it. After you actually enter the dungeon, something happens that will slowly reflect the meaning of the word "painted skin".

In the stories of Liaozhai, ghosts can be transformed into charming girls by putting on carefully drawn human skins.

Therefore, Fang Li also guessed, does the meaning of painted skin represent a disguise?A ghost, or whatever, puts on another person's skin to disguise itself as that person.

This conjecture is established from Kiki's point of view.

Apart from Xiao Ke and Qiqi, Fang Li also suspected one person. After thinking for a while, he revealed the object of his suspicion.

The bald brother was a little surprised: "You doubt the housekeeper?"

"Well," Fang Li nodded, and said, "Except for a few of us present, the other three may be transferred. And in this house, the most suspicious person is the housekeeper. Have you noticed the hand of the housekeeper?" Is it? He looks 70 to 20 years old, but the skin on his hands is only in his [-]s."

"So that's it." The bald-headed brother said with burning eyes, "I'm actually a little suspicious of him, maybe you didn't notice—he's too quiet."

Quiet?Fang Li glanced at him suspiciously, then suddenly understood something.

Yes, it is quiet, but this quiet is not that quiet.

In Guilou, every domestic servant wears a bell.

When Fang Li first came here, he saw it up close. It was a bell with a tiger's head, which was used to ward off evil spirits and suppress demons.

It is precisely because everyone wears bells that they ring continuously when they are working or even walking.

Although the sound is not very loud, if someone walks by within 20 meters nearby, even those with better hearing can hear it clearly.

But the butler didn't.

The few times he approached everyone, he was silent, not even the sound of footsteps, not to mention the sound of bells that would ring when people moved.

The butler should be the only one in the entire Guilou who didn't wear a bell.

Bells are used to ward off evil spirits, and the entire Guilou is tied up except for the housekeeper. Either the housekeeper doesn't need to use tiger-head bells to ward off evil spirits, or... he is evil.

Fang Li hesitated for a moment, and decided not to disclose the fact that the housekeeper went to the cemetery.

This is a clue they just discovered this morning. There are some things that they haven't figured out yet, such as the pair of brothers and sisters whose names have the same pronunciation but different words.

"Anyway, you can't believe any of them." Zhu Yicheng patted the table and concluded, "This is such a nonsense... Two people will die within a day."

He was referring to Fang Li and Yu Jiaxi.

When Yu Jiaxi was knocked down, she fell firmly on the rough floor tiles, and a large piece of skin was worn off her elbow.

And Fang Li killed one thousand enemies, and suffered nine hundred and ninety-nine self-damages. A piece of flesh fell off his arm, and the wound is still oozing blood through the gauze.

It's good that he didn't mention it, but when he mentioned it, Fang Li felt his arm hurt.

"By the way, don't be confused by the pictures on the screen." Fang Li reminded kindly before the clue sharing meeting ended. "Those paintings are very strange, and it is very likely that they hide some secrets."

The screen was placed in the hall, and Fang Li just now had the courage to get closer and take a look.After taking a closer look, he realized that the texture of the drawing paper seemed a little unusual. It wasn't paper or cloth, and the surface was delicate, white and shiny... He thought of something very bad, and he didn't dare to touch it at all.

The other two nodded in a daze, not knowing if they listened or not.

The bald brother tasted it carefully, and seemed to have a bit of empathy for the word "weird".

"Little brother, don't rush away." Fang Li was about to leave with Zhu Yi when the bald brother stopped him, pulled them to a corner of the corridor, and took out something from his pocket.

The thing was wrapped in oiled paper and tied with string.

Fang Li asked curiously, "What is this?"

"I found this in the well in the yard yesterday." The bald-headed brother was mysterious, but his actions clearly classified Fang Li and the others as his own. He unwrapped the shell wrapped in oil paper and said, "Look .”

Fang Li took a closer look, and saw that it was a letter wrapped in oiled paper.
