Chapter 86: That is, some being who has been waiting for him.
Soon it will be late into the night.
Oil lamps in the corridor at a certain time together, this space at this time lost all light sources, dark to the point of blindness.
Wuji Gu feels that this oil lamp efficiency is just like the lights out situation when living in school. That said, the current conditions are also much better than his previous school dormitory.
...... is probably the only one who still thinks about such things at this horrible time, Wuji Gu.
The surrounding rooms are also very silent, probably no one dares to speak at this time, and certainly no one can sleep at this time, after all, tonight may have to face unknown ghosts, they are not heart to that extent.
Wuji Gu, the only one who slept on the pillow, is still sitting on the edge of the bed with the idea of talking to the ghosts.
Li Li lies on the bed, has pulled the quilt tightly, almost half of the face are covered, only to reveal the eyes. But even so, she still felt the bone-chilling cold around her constantly eroding into the body, the quilt did not have the slightest effect.
It is reasonable that the player should not feel such a cold, which proves that the Yin Qi in this space is now so strong that a human body can not withstand it.
Li Li's body can't help but shiver, holding the defense props in his hands, looking fearfully in the direction of the door.
After all, she learned that there would be danger, she has long moved the cabinet over to block the doorway position. But how could such a cabinet stop an evil spirits ...... If it is really bad luck, that evil spirits choose to want to kill the person is her?
In fact, before coming to the castle, Li Li met a servant who had been out of the castle by chance when she was investigating in the village, and learned something about the castle from him.
The ghosts in this castle are not at all so simple as the people who once died here, or even the whole castle, including this village, everything is not so ordinary.
Li Li mind more and more fear, but she is also doing her best to adjust their mindset, can not let the emotions affect their play, otherwise after the real danger that is not even the chance to escape.
But at that moment, the most edge of the position, suddenly came the sound of knocking on the door.
A hoarse female voice rang out coldly, "Excuse me, can you help me dress my wound?"
The room next door was quiet to the point where it was obvious that the man could not have spoken at such a time.
The players in the other rooms are holding their breath at this point, the words of this female ghost keep ringing in their minds, what does it mean to bandage the wounds? Is it that she has wounds on her body, and really as long as she doesn't answer, the other side won't come in?
The knock on the door is still ringing and getting more and more urgent, and even make people suspect that the door which is not locked will be pushed open in the next moment.
But the knocking stopped.
What followed was the sound of footsteps, the female ghost slowly walked to the second room and once again began to knock on the door.
"Can you bandage my wound? The bleeding won't stop all the time, why, it's so strange ......"
Along with such words, the female ghost also continued to make painful sounds, as well as the sound of blood dripping down to the ground.
The people in the next room are of course sullen, just by brainstorming, can already imagine how the female ghost outside is a terrible sight in the end.
Seeing the person inside the door did not respond, knocking and before the general end, the female ghost's footsteps have come to the door of Li Li room.
Li Li couldn't help but bite her lower lip, her hands tightly gripping the props, her body tense to the point of almost stiffness.
"I'll be able to ...... maybe I won't be so unlucky ......"
"It really hurts, it's so scary, why, why would I encounter such a thing? Why, you guys don't want to help ......"
The female ghost's voice has turned from the previous numbness to hysteria, knocking on the door became intense, her words with the intention of accusation, but obviously not against these players at this time, but to some former companions to say such words.
"Why! Why did you leave too! Didn't you say you would stay by my side ......"
The female ghost's words were full of venting and clearly reached the ears of the other players around.
I think this room to live on a set of people has not been the first time, this female ghost may stay is the previous victims, that in the past have happened what? The crowd's mind kept coming up with all kinds of scary images.
Li Li has been nervous to the extreme, even their own rapid breathing felt too noisy, she did not know whether the movement of their own body will cause the attention of the female ghosts outside, cold sweat continues to trickle down, the clothes on the back are wet with sweat.
"Damn it, I have to be calm to do that ......"
Li Li tried to keep her sanity so that she would not be too afraid, but it still did not work too well, her lips were trembling and she could not even make a sound. Even though this is not the first time such an encounter with a ghost has happened, this time, she really felt a sense of danger to her life from deep inside.
Outside the female ghost every knock on the door, the loud sound is like hitting in her chest, and if this continues, the door will soon break down directly, as for the cabinet is not the slightest role in resisting.
Other players are already almost aware that the poor man chosen by the female ghost is not expected to be spared, the only thing that makes them glad is that they were chosen not themselves, as for what to go out and help, what a joke, their own lives may not be saved, where there is time to care about others ...... originally help people or something in the copy The only thing that makes you happy is that you are not chosen.
"Damn it." Li Li is also not the kind of person who sits back and waits for death, her face is white as she rises from the bed and takes out her props one after another, looking indignantly in the direction from which the voice came, "Even if it really is to take my life, I can't let you take it so casually- "
The next instant, but next door suddenly came the voice of a person.
"Miss Ghost Girl, if you need anything, you can come over here and I'll bandage it up for you."
The voice is not too loud, and very kind and gentle, but in this space like a thunderclap, so that everyone can hear it clearly.
The original female ghosts that kept knocking on the door suddenly stopped moving, and the footsteps went toward the room where the sound was made, apparently much more basic than before.
The others immediately discerned that it was the voice of the female player, Moe.
Players are shocked, their hearts at this time is simply complex emotions to the extreme, to their own, they simply did not think someone would stand out at this critical time, would rather sacrifice themselves to protect others.
Not to mention this Moe, or not a girl player at the beginning of the object of contempt, think she must be a doddering flower, can only rely on men to survive the kind of useless vase, not even look at. But when it comes to this kind of key thing, she is the first one to come forward.
Even the other players were already stunned, not to mention Li Li, who was saved by Wuji Gu, who almost straightaway froze in place, unable to believe what she had heard.
Even if the original Wuji Gu said that the accident will save her, but she thought that was just a polite talk, did not expect that when things really happened, the other party actually really ......
Li Li could not help but bite her lower lip, if it was in the past, she must have snorted a few times thinking that the person talking was too naive, and then peacefully waiting for everything to end. But now, how could she possibly do such a thing!
She must find a way to save Moe to do so.
Just as she was getting anxious, it suddenly occurred to her that she had also been given a notebook about the castle earlier, but it contained so much and so many things that she hadn't had the patience to read it all before.
............
......
At this time, the female ghost has walked to the Wuji Gu door, a pair of eyes filled with bloodshot stare at the door in front of you, reaching out to knock.
"No need to knock, just come in." Wuji Gu's voice rang out, "I've been waiting for you for a long time."
With the sound of the door opening and closing, Wuji Gu was a dead man in the minds of the others.
The moment the female ghost enters the door, this space seems to be isolated from the outside world, it is impossible to hear a little sound from the outside world, and other players also can not feel what is happening in this house.
It can be said that even if you want to ask for help that is impossible, escape is a dream.
Wuji Gu himself, who had encountered this kind of thing, was extremely calm and said to the blood-stained female ghost who had just walked in through the door, "I'm sorry, I have nothing to offer you here."
He simply sounded as if the person in front of him was not a female ghost, but some ordinary person who came to be a guest.
The female ghost's eyes looked at Wuji Gu , and her hoarse voice had sounded, "Are you able to help me bandage?"
As she spoke, her five senses continued to have blood dripping down, and her eyes were full of killing intent, as if she had come from the beginning just to kill people.
Wuji Gu seems to have not noticed this at all, but slowly walked forward, eyes gazing at each other, the tone of voice also with a few worried open, "of course, but before that, you have to show me the location of the wound first, otherwise I do not know how to start."
The female ghost was a little surprised, she did not expect the person in front of her to actually look like he was really going to help her bandage, the heart was puzzled to extend a hand.
"You better make sure you can bandage me up, I don't forgive those who betray and deceive me ......"
Wuji Gu can see that her thin, bony hands are littered with many marks cut by sharp instruments, deep to the bone, and even now that the other side has become a ghost, blood continues to gush out of it, as if it has never healed.
From these wounds, he all seemed to be able to see what kind of terrible images the female ghost had experienced while she was still alive.
The resentment she felt at the time of her death made her a terrible ghost, but it was also because of this obsession that the wounds on her body could not heal and her whole being was in constant resentment and pain.
Wuji Gu took hold of his opponent's cold, bone-chilling hand, which looked like a corpse no matter how he touched it, and used his healing power directly on it - a handy ability, to say the least, otherwise Wuji Gu would have had to think about where to find bandages.
The female ghost barely even reacted, all the wounds on her body healed, and it can be said that she is now simply less wounded than she was when she was alive.
The female ghosts all froze instantly.
Wuji Gu gave her a smile, "Feeling okay now?"
The female ghost stunned reached out and touched her body where the wounds originally existed, these wounds that originally caused her so much pain that they seemed to never heal, now there is actually no trace of them at all.
"Looks like a pretty good recovery." Wuji Gu himself is also relieved, originally he was a little worried about whether his healing ability can be used for ghosts, now it seems to be quite reliable.
Female ghost: "?" Originally, she was ready to kill this human!
"Now that you are well, can you tell me about what has happened to you?" Wuji Gu looked at the female ghost with an enquiring look.
After the wound healed, the female ghost's attitude simply changed 180. Although the wound will reappear sooner or later because of the resentment in her body, it is rare to experience this feeling of no pain in her body, which is enough to make her impressed with Wuji Gu.
"Sure. It's also been a long time since I've had a good conversation with someone, and it still makes me a little nostalgic."
............
......
Li Li is cupping a parchment notebook with trembling hands, constantly rummaging through it for messages.
It was a notebook of information about this copy that she had previously taken from elsewhere, and was actually just the diary of a servant who had worked in the castle for many years, the contents of which were mostly very casual, writing about what work she had done again each day.
Generally and the villagers asked, the player will think it is the recent period of time after the change of the lord before all sorts of weird things, of course, subconsciously think that the lord of the castle is the villain boss of this copy.
But from the mouths of the servants who have worked in the castle for decades, things are not at all the same!
These strange events also happened decades ago, and at that time was also replaced by a new lord, only to let everything gradually return to peace. And in that time, the lord also invited many villagers into the castle to participate in the banquet, but only a few of those villagers can get out alive.
It took another few decades of calm afterwards before these problems suddenly erupted now. But because in the scruples of what, know the original things of the old man are reluctant to speak, and the middle-aged and young people do not understand, so inquire about these things players are not likely to clear.
If it wasn't for Li Li's luck that she happened to help the old man accomplish something, the other side wouldn't have told her about the notebook and the castle.
Of course, such information Li Li is not free to talk to others.
The servant who had become an old man was able to persevere until he left from the castle alive, also because he was a person who never made death without curiosity, so he didn't know too much, but some of the words revealed from his mouth made Li Li, who was experienced in making copies, enough to speculate a lot of things.
That female ghost is estimated to be the villagers who died during the last banquet, her soul will wander in this place is also by no means accidental, but the people who did it in the castle have long anticipated things ...... can say that this is simply a sacrifice.
During these decades, the ghost did not stop, often knocking on the door of some servants. At the beginning of the servant who opened the door, of course, died a violent death, after the servants also have experience, choose not to pay attention to her, so that the female ghost will naturally leave after not getting a response.
As for this place as the place where the most ghosts wander, the servants in the castle are never come back after dark.
Li Li knows that tonight is different, the ghosts will definitely choose one of them to kill!
If it wasn't for Wuji Gu's kindness in helping out, she would have been the one chosen by the ghost, but if Wuji Gu really died as a result, she would never forgive herself!
Just then, Li Li finally turned to a certain page, and when her eyes landed on the page, she instantly revealed a delighted look, "This is it! As long as we have this, we can definitely stop that female ghost, Mengmeng she will be fine ......"
............
......
The room was completely different from the picture of the tragic death that others had imagined.
Wuji Gu and the female ghost are simply climbing in a pleasant atmosphere.
"So that's how it is?" Wuji Gu nodded while listening to the female ghost's words, with a look of deep hatred on his face, "These people are too much, how can they leave their companions behind and run away? What I hate most is this kind of people!"
In the words of the female ghost, it is surprising that none of her companions were willing to lend a hand when she met the ghost in the room in this place and was killed.
They are not what know this is a copy of the player, but really a group of very close friends, originally thought to come to this castle is able to participate in the banquet to have fun, who thought that actually died a tragic death like that, but also realize that the plastic love between friends, it is no wonder that the female ghost resentment so deep.
The female ghost looked at Wuji Gu's eyes still admiringly. Of course, she also saw the picture of Wuji Gu trying to save his companion even at the expense of himself, which made Wuji Gu's words feel more sincere.
If a random passerby comes over and says something like this, the female ghost will definitely feel perfunctory and get killed directly.
"Yes, the others are also forgettable, but only that person, I can not forgive." The female ghost's voice was filled with a complex emotion.
Wuji Gu felt that there must be some kind of love-hate relationship involved, and was careful when answering the words, so as not to trigger the anger of the other party.
After all, for many people, the kind of love-hate object is certainly only they can scold, others scolded may also provoke them to anger.
So the conversation went on naturally again, and the ghost mentioned a lot of things, but what she knew was also very one-sided.
"So, you are not sure what is going on in this castle, because you have been trapped in this first floor space for decades and cannot leave." Wuji Gu pondered deeply, "But you can realize that there is an extremely frightening presence in this castle, and that if that presence is awakened, everyone will surely die?"
This copy of the villain boss should be the vampire lord is, but from all aspects of the details reveal some truth more than this feeling out.
The female ghost immediately nodded, a few moments of fear surfaced on her face, "And that terrifying presence has been getting stronger and stronger in breath lately, and because of that, it makes me desperately want to leave, after all, before I find her, how can I just die here ...... A voice in my subconscious tells me that as long as kill someone in this place, I can leave this place once and for all."
"I think that voice is right." Wuji Gu mused, "I think after you do kill someone here, that person will take your place. You wouldn't exist in this place anymore, then of course you'd be gone for good."
When the female ghost heard his words, her face seemed to have some backward look on it and immediately said, "You're right, I'm vaguely aware of this too ...... it's just that until I saw you, my mind was all muddled and I couldn't think at all. I must not leave like this now, before asking why exactly she left me behind."
The female ghost remembered something from the past, it seems nostalgic and with a few bitterness, and sadness and pain ...... What kind of emotion is this to make her so obsessed for more than a decade.
Wuji Gu immediately speculated about the current situation, thinking that the female ghost's previous muddled appearance was what the person who laid out the plan before really wanted. Who would have thought that this female ghost had the obsession to ask for the truth about her companion, which allowed her to barely maintain her consciousness.
No, this may not even be a companion anymore. Thinking about the werewolf girl he met before, Wuji Gu thought that maybe it was the spirit of the village to engage in lilies or something like that.
That the leader of the people before told them not to stay together two people, it will not be so will touch the female ghost of the sadness to let her open wide to have such a taboo it ...... Wuji Gu The more you think about it, the more you think it is likely.
There are times when Wuji Gu's feelings for others are quickly apparent.
"But your companion can't be alive now, can he?" Wuji Gu couldn't help but speak carefully.
"No, I can feel her soul within the confines of this castle." The female ghost's eyes were firm and she looked at Wuji Gu again with a look of help, "Now I can only ask you to take me to her side, as opposed to I will try to keep you alive in this castle."
[Triggered a side quest: Female Ghost's Wish]
[The female ghost you met in this dilapidated castle seems to have been having an unforgettable obsession of some kind, so please fulfill her wish].
Wuji Gu was a little surprised, not expecting to be able to trigger another side mission so soon.
According to previous experience, it seems that the side quests are not done will not have an impact on the main line, but do it to understand more about the whole copy of the thing. Of course that copy of the island escape, Wuji Gu is not even think about doing a side mission can be involved in the whole copy of the truth ......
Originally, according to Wuji Gu's nature, even without this side mission, he would have helped the other side. But the female ghost said the person she was looking for was still in the castle, that is certainly also turned into a ghost ...... what happened to all these people.
Just as the two reached a friendly and cooperative handshake, there was a sudden, violent crash at the door.
The female ghost could not help but frown, originally when she entered this space, this space should have been independent only, now how can there be people who can break into ......
The next moment, the door was slammed open, and Li Li's figure suddenly appeared outside the door, holding a sharp knife against her wrist, and shouting at the people inside with an air of "Let her go! Or I'll--"
Li Li's voice disappeared into her throat after seeing the harmonious atmosphere of one person and one ghost in the room, and she stood there with her body stiff and her face blank.
What's going on here?
Why is there so much harmony between these two people? And she imagined the tragic picture is too far away! Why did she actually have the feeling that she was intruding as if she was interrupting some important conversation between them?
The female ghost does not want to explain too much to others, the body directly into a wisp of black smoke attached to the Wuji Gu body, as if there is no breath, others are difficult to detect her presence even if they are close at hand.
Wuji Gu Anyway, he picked up the side quest, then hurried up and looked at the other party with some surprise, " Li Li , why are you here?"
Of course he could immediately see that the other party actually came to his rescue, Wuji Gu were completely unexpected ...... did not expect this Li Li is still a very righteous woman.
Li Li looked at Wuji Gu safe and sound, the sharp knife in his hand also fell to the ground, her body a soft hold on the door so as not to fall directly, looking at Wuji Gu on a snotty cry, "You're okay really good ......"
Then Wuji Gu comforted her while helping her to the next room and secretly channeled her healing power, and she seemed to be doing much better.
"You carry that sharp knife, what is it?" Wuji Gu can feel the female ghost attached to his body when perceiving the sharp knife, emotions are intensely fluctuate up.
Hearing this, Li Li immediately sent the notebook into Wuji Gu's arms with a suggestive look, then spoke, "I don't know why, but the ghosts here seem to fear the presence of blood, so as long as it bleeds, the ghosts won't come any closer."
This is also a message she just turned up to save Wuji Gu, otherwise she would have cut her hand at the beginning, where there is still a need to almost be killed by the female ghost.
"Is that so?" Wuji Gu thought about these players, and the two players who were lucky enough not to be killed by the female ghost before did seem to have both been injured before.
In that case it would indeed be easy to conclude that ghosts are afraid of blood.
However, Wuji Gu also remembered the words of the werewolf girl who warned herself before, which also mentioned blood ...... things are definitely not so simple. This blood can drive away these ordinary ghosts, but perhaps instead will attract something more frightening ......
It's like, the existence of the female ghost's words, if considered in this way, the ghosts fear not their blood, but the meaning contained behind the blood.
Not to mention that the villainous boss of this copy can still be a vampire.
Wuji Gu picked up the notebook sent by Li Li and solemnly stated his guesses, telling her to be absolutely careful afterwards, not to get hurt rashly, and to consider this move only when she really encountered a real crisis that could not be helped.
Li Li to Wuji Gu's already good feeling soared, where there will be any other meaning, immediately nodded repeatedly, vowed to take good care of their own body, the heart also felt Meng Meng is really too considerate and gentle.
As for Wuji Gu and the female ghost in the end what agreement she did not ask, after all, this kind of thing is also the secret of other people. Not to mention that Meng Meng is a beautiful and kind-hearted person who could not possibly harm her!
Wuji Gu again to appease Li Li, then went back to his room, directly to the bed and closed his eyes and went to sleep, is not worried about the body of the host of the ghost.
............
......
In the dream world, Wuji Gu felt that he came to a corridor decorated in a rather extravagant and gorgeous way, with all kinds of paintings of great value hanging on both sides, but the content of the paintings were somewhat bizarre.
It was clear that he had never been here before, but it was clear to him subconsciously that it must still be in the middle of the castle.
He walked slowly toward the front and came to a huge door.
Before Wuji Gu could reach out, the door had opened slowly on its own, revealing the scene inside.
This is an extremely magnificent hall with a high dome, on which various exquisite and superb frescoes are painted, giving a sense of grandeur and epicness.
And the hall is empty. The only thing that could be seen was the blackened coffin placed in the center of the room.
A sense of fear in the face of the unknown struck Wuji Gu's heart, but more than that, he cared about an inexplicable strong impulse in his heart. He had alarm bells ringing in his heart, knowing that there was a high probability of something very terrible happening in the past, but still could not stop his pace.
That is, some being that has been waiting for him.
