Weird Regulator

Ji Li found a chance to take some time off at this critical moment.

At present, judging from the information he has on hand, most of the veil of this mission has been lifted to him.

The existence of the Ghost Bride may be for the integrity of the mission. It is unlikely that it is a murderous ghost.

Otherwise Ji Li would have died several times.

He speculated that what the clerks were really going to face in this mission was the ghost that prevented the sacrifice.

However, at present, we still don’t know how to deal with it.

But Ji Li had a vague guess that the hotel wanted them to complete the sacrifice.

After all, with the rigor of the hotel, there is no need to set up a redundant sacrificial link, now that everything revolves around it.

Then, it is very likely that the way to survive this mission is also through sacrifice.

When Ji Li thought of this, he stopped being busy. He didn't care who the murderer was or where he was.

The following period of time was nothing more than how the middle-aged man trapped and sacrificed several apprentices.

What he was really waiting for was learning how to sacrifice.

In his opinion, middle-aged men can't do it, and the store clerks have to do the sacrifice. This is also their mission.

Ji Li was half lying on the mound, enjoying a moment of peace. He could vaguely hear part of the conversation and negotiation of the middle-aged man below, but he couldn't hear it clearly.

He simply stopped listening. He took out the cigarette case from his arms, took one out and put it to his mouth.

The lighter failed several times in the wind, and Ji Li, who lost an arm, felt helpless, so he had to lower his head and finally lit the cigarette.

He lay on the hillside and quietly watched the performance of the six masters and apprentices below.

From the outside, there was not much movement yet, but the tall and strong disciples had already grabbed the shovels placed on the ground and dug into Master Li's grave.

Ji Li found it strange. It seemed that every time he offered sacrifices, he had to dig up Mr. Li's grave.

That doesn't mean that after more than ten sacrifices have been made in the past few days, this master's grave will be dug up so many times.

When the tomb was widely excavated, Ji Li looked up and found that there was a very huge box next to Mr. Li's coffin.

This box was much wider than the coffin and seemed to be very deep. It was buried next to the master's coffin.

When Ji Li saw this, he seemed to realize something.

Sure enough, when the box was pried open with brute force, he saw the middle-aged man and the apprentices covering their noses and retreating one by one.

And in that huge box, there were highly decomposed corpses!

At this moment, the third personality came into play. His observation ability was different from ordinary people, and he could almost see clearly the scene under the mountain:

The corpses are all piled together. It's hard to tell how many there are, but the number is not low.

There were no obvious injuries on the surface of the deceased. They appeared to be whole bodies. The cause of death was unclear.

The corpses on the top were not completely decomposed, and the degree of decomposition deepened as they went downwards.

Then it seems that these people are the human lives that were sacrificed.

A long paragraph came out of the third personality's mouth, making Ji Li couldn't help but nod.

There is no doubt about this, but the specific method of sacrifice has not been revealed yet.

Seeing that the middle-aged man was still negotiating with his disciples, he couldn't hear clearly what was being said.

However, it seemed that the communication had reached a stalemate. Both parties had their own opinions and had stopped what they were doing. The swarthy young man and the middle-aged man began to blame each other.

Ji Li had nothing to do at this time and looked at the coffin not far away.

He squinted his eyes. In fact, it would be best to go there and take a look at the situation.

Maybe we can get clues as to how Tongguan and others failed, but Ji Li was a little hesitant at the moment.

He knew that in this world, the ghost still hadn't left. It was waiting for the sacrifice to begin, and Ji Li was also waiting.

After thinking about it secretly, Ji Li chose to go to the coffin to have a look, maybe he would find something unexpected.

So he quietly took a few steps back, put out the cigarette in his hand, and ran towards the coffin.

And while walking like this, he suddenly saw something was wrong with the coffin. It was actually open.

And inside the open coffin, that strange portrait was also included.

This actually stunned Ji Li. He never thought that such an important clue would be left here and still stay here quietly.

Ji Li took a few steps forward and saw scratch marks on the surface of the coffin, which were caused by a sharp knife being forcibly inserted into the coffin.

This looked like the actions of a living person, and it must have been their reaction when they encountered danger.

Ji Li was a little confused. He slowly came to the coffin and looked at the very familiar portrait without saying a word.

The bride in the portrait is still sitting quietly, with a dark temperament, but it is better to say that she is lonely.

If it weren't for so many horror colors, this must be a beauty.

Although the old woman in the Li Mansion looks exactly like the bride, there is a darkness about that strange woman that is hard to ignore.

Far inferior to the bride in the portrait, it actually gives people a quiet and strange beauty.

It turns out that a portrait needs to be present during the sacrifice. This should be a legacy of the failure of Chen Fu's team.

Ji Li silently raised his head and looked at the gloomy weather. There was no wind or rain, and now it was just quiet.

He was a little unsure as he listened to the faint sound of autumn in his ears.

The portrait is here, so the murderer should not be here.

After all, its purpose is to prevent sacrifices. If it had the ability, it would not ignore the exposed portrait. In other words, this painting can be regarded as the killer's nemesis.

Ji Li gently placed his hand on the cold coffin and gradually touched the surface of the portrait.

It seems that the painting that broke his arm has long been forgotten.

Then, the way out has actually arrived.

As long as I take this painting away and find a place to hide, no one can attack me during this mission, and I will easily survive the remaining mission time.

This is a huge bug, or maybe the hotel did it deliberately.

This painting doesn't kill people, at least it won't kill people until the sacrifice is successful.

What happened before was probably an accident.

Of course, as a carrier of supernatural things, Ji Li could imagine that the ghost bride still had murderous intentions towards him.

This is the instinct of a ghost. When facing Ji Li, it thought about killing people, but still stopped in the final stage.

This shows that the Ghost Bride is restricted by the mission rules, and it cannot kill the store clerk yet.

Now there were two choices before Ji Li.

First, he just took the portrait away and delayed it for the rest of the mission without any damage;

But this is obviously not the way out that the hotel wants them to implement. After all, this is a trick that relies on loopholes, and no one can tell the ghost in this painting, and they will never do anything to him.

Second, he continued to wait, waiting for an opportunity to find a way out arranged by the hotel, and spend this promotion task in a perfect manner.

But this plan is more risky and unknown, and it doesn't seem to be a good idea for Ji Li now.

Similarly, if Ji Li adopts the first option, then Tongguan, Chang Nian, Fang Shenyan, Yu Guo and others who are now unknown whether they are alive or dead will undoubtedly die, and they will die without any chance of life.

Gradually, the wind picked up.

There was no emotion or embarrassment on Ji Li's face, and he slowly grabbed the wooden frame of the portrait with his remaining hand.

This seems to be his choice...

I'm on my way out today, so I updated it in advance.
