Chapter 035 ID: Forest (Trap)

After the conversation, the clinic returned to silence, and in the flickering firelight, everyone closed their eyes and recuperated.

It wasn't until the light of dawn whitened everything again, and when the blinding white light had dissipated, the survivors could not open their eyes.

The dripping rain is still falling outside the window, and the yellowed old light and shadow shrouds the clinic, silently telling the obscure past.

If you don't leave the clinic, this rain seems to be going to fall forever, lingering and dull, forever endless.

Just one night had passed, and the petals and pollen at the door had completely disappeared, leaving no trace.

Including the broken sacrificial butcher's knife, where it is not known at this moment.

An inexplicable sense of incongruity made Fang Liang sit still, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that everything seemed to be too smooth, it was strange enough that the dead line effect did not backfire on him, and it was also strange that the black tide did not attack, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

Is the curse that can kill the people of Duan Jian really so obedient and easy to use?

The doctor's reluctance to take part in the inexplicable adventure was to be expected.

In such a situation, Fang Liang only needed to arrange the barrier of the dead line effect in advance, so that others could not enter and the doctor could not get out, and the accident could be avoided to a large extent.

After all, when Fang Liang fought against the curse attack yesterday, the others had more or less seen some strange scenes, if Fang Liang's mysterious ability could not protect the doctor, the doctor really had nowhere to hide, and it would be a dead end wherever he fled.

After drawing a restriction circle at the door of the third room, Fang Liang laid a red line outside the house, and after completing all this, he confessed to the doctor: "You can stay in the room today and continue to study, or you can rest and be lazy, I have some way to stop the evil attack......"

"I know, I don't ask, I'll just stay here and wait for you to come back, as long as you can finally take me away."

The doctor promised to come down and spend a few difficult nights together, he already trusted Fang Liang and the others very much.

After a brief tidying up, the four of them hit the road and headed southeast to find a farm.

The fire caused by the Mimic monster had been strangely extinguished last night, and there were no new branches growing to fill the trees after the trees were burned, and the light around the town had recovered a lot.

It may be some kind of cursed will, thinking that extinguishing forest fires is more important than night raids and killings, and last night a bunch of people stayed together, and there was a miraculous Kuroshio attack, which is probably also the butterfly effect produced by the curse against the curse.

In the distance, the woods in the southeast of the town were indeed attacked by fire, and the tree wall was long gone, leaving only a burned woodland.

Fang Liang knew very well that the roots of the forest had not been completely burned, and the passage had only been opened briefly.

Walking on the road, Lu Ming asked, "You...... Why do you have to come here to investigate, is it just because of that name? ”

Fang Liang pulled up his mask to cover the ashes of grass and trees that were blowing up between his steps: "That's just one aspect, the reason why I decided to go to the appointment is because there is a probability that it is some kind of invitation from the cursed power, because it gave up the attack and changed hands to try to lure us into its camp. ”

"Photographs of a country school, an invitation from a churchgoer, a little boy reaching out, and a strange invitation to a midnight invitation......"

"When it decides to do so, the power of the curse will inevitably be exposed, after all, the curse is an unknown fear. Once you have a known concept of the curse and master the curse mechanics and action patterns, even ordinary people have a certain chance of avoiding survival. ”

Li Xiaoyu asked, "Do you suspect that the forest was not like this in the first place, and that someone controlled the source of the curse and caused the catastrophe to erupt?" ”

Fang Liang affirmed: "Yes, and we are already very close to the answer, I think the source curse has felt a real threat, otherwise it would not be able to actively expose itself, and it can read the powerful hole cards of the player's cognition or memory." ”

"However, this is probably the last patience of the source, and if even such a blatant invitation as a marriage invitation is rejected, it means that the temptation plan has completely failed, and it will attack us like it was going to destroy us in the first place."

Cao Zhengfei: "Do you suspect that the doctor controlled the source of the curse?" ”

Fang Liang denied: "No, I think the situation this time is a bit complicated, I'm afraid that the person who manipulated the source of the curse is not alone, because it shows too many contradictory ways, so that I can greatly narrow the scope of my suspicions, but I still need the last bit of evidence." ”

Fang Liang stared at the farm not far away, which was lush and unaffected by the fire.

"I think the curse wants to break our wills and put us into a deep sleep, and although I don't know what it means, this invitation is overconfident. Because it identifies us as human beings, not players, it's making mistakes. ”

"As long as we pass this engagement ceremony, the law of the curse will be hidden, it will no longer be able to hide its contradictory lies, all the truth will be paid to the surface, and all those trapped in the forest will have to face the terrible truth."

"That's what they really are."

Approaching the southeastern farm, a fragrant breeze blows, and the petals of the trees near the farm fall as if welcoming everyone.

Pick up a thick rose, this petal is quite moist and fresh, not a withered flower in the fire.

"The power of the curse protects the farm from fire...... This engagement ceremony is the embodiment of the power of the curse, beware. ”

Fang Liang approached the gate of the farm house, near the barren farmland, and the ground was full of flower petals.

Old-fashioned tractors and harvesters are casually parked near the gate.

An old radio hung in the doorway, and the husky male voice could barely be heard in the creaking cacophony of electricity.

Listen carefully, it keeps repeating, "Joy...... Greet...... New...... Man. ”

"The fact that it's a radio and not a tape recorder suggests that the power of the curse can interfere with the operation of radio to a certain extent, at least from the point of view of human cognition, and that it can form words with special frequencies and bands."

"In those days when the doctor lived alone, I am afraid that what he heard at night was not a hallucination, but a similar special band......"

"The little boy's antler-like branches and body movements are also to better accept this wave of ...... from the forest and the curse."

Fang Liang approached the door and found that an inch of silk scarf was stuck in the crack of the door, and he was about to reach out to draw it, but it suddenly shrank in.

Hold your breath and listen to your heartbeat, behind the rustling electromagnetic noise, there is not the slightest sound of footsteps.

The door, creaky to know open.

The air inside was a strange color, like steam from a pressure cooker, and unpredictable like a lead-gray mist.

Listen carefully, and the wriggling sound of the Heavenly Mushroom gradually becomes clear in my ears.

When Fang Liang tried to find the source of this sound, he felt that it was like some kind of cooking pot gurgling stewed food, and he could faintly smell the aroma of the food, as if the movement of the Heavenly Mushroom was just a momentary mishearing and illusion.

Fang Liang continued to go deeper, his teammates followed, and a torrent-like cold hit him, making people shudder.

It's like sticking your legs into an icy stream and feeling the force of the water snake wrapping around your calves, and each step is slow.

The space division of the farm farmhouse is basically only a simple basic division such as bedrooms, halls, and kitchens.

Disturbingly, the upper half of the farmhouse was shrouded in smoke, and in order to see the surroundings, you had to bend over or crouch down.

In the midst of the smoke, there were many villagers dressed in old clothes, standing silently in the smoke.

The smoke coiled from the upper layer just covered their heads, and they only knew that someone was standing here, but they couldn't see their faces clearly.

The basis for Fang Liang's action was to follow the path of the petals, cautiously crouching forward.

Walking out of the front hall and entering the middle courtyard, Fang Liang found that there were at least a dozen long tables for banqueting guests, each table was placed with a sufficient amount of food, and there were many people sleeping on the benches, either their hair covering their faces, or they didn't even take off their hats.

Walking here, he could hear the obvious sound of sleepy breathing, and even if Fang Liang stabbed people with a stick, he couldn't wake them up at all.

In front of the door of the back wing, a woman in a white wedding dress was holding a bouquet of flowers, her upper body completely submerged in smoke, but she seemed to be able to see the visitor through the smoke, and turned away with a smile.

The door closed, and Fang Liang followed.

Pushing the door in, it was pitch black in the back room, and only the sound of "knock" was heard.

Fang Liang turned a corner, raised his pistol and flashlight to aim and swept in, only to find that there was a large banquet table in the room.

If you look closely, the richness of the dishes on the table is indeed mouth-watering, but behind each seat there is a person.

Only a man in a suit sat stiffly at the end of the long table, and he suddenly opened his eyes and met Fang Liang's eyes.

Fang Liang instantly felt a chill on his body, but he didn't make a sound, cautiously avoiding every weirdo behind his seat.

"You...... It's finally here......"

"We ...... I've been waiting for you for a long time......"

She ...... Waiting for you in the room......"

"Come on...... Enjoy a gala dinner...... No more waking up ......"

"Boom!" In the room behind the man in the suit, there was another eerie knock on the door, and his voice became more and more like a radio.

The atmosphere began to get weird, Fang Liang's wrist began to ache, and the power of the curse was taking effect.

Fang Liang was bold and followed the other party's thoughts and said, "She, is she really the beauty of my dreams?" ”

"When we get married, can we stay here and live? Can we own our own house and farmstead? ”

"Marriage Mecca...... Testimonial of Blessing ......"

Fang Liang looked at it, the man was holding a photo frame in his arms, and in the photo was a group photo of An Yueliu and someone.

Fang Liang approached and tried to take the photo frame away, but he felt that this man was infinitely powerful, and the photo frame did not move in his hand.

"Have a dinner party...... Eternal Dream ......"

"Bang!"

Fang Liang stopped consuming more with this man in an instant, he didn't want to eat this weird dinner party of unknown origin.

As soon as the shot passed, the man's figure disappeared in an instant, Fang Liang picked up the photo frame and turned around and ran.

However, a pair of ice hands with silk scarves and gloves appeared on Fang Liang's waist without warning, and said in a hoarse voice like a radio...... Why do you want to forget about me......"

Fang Liang was terrified, and when he turned around, this woman was really very similar to An Yueliu, and she was even more godlike when she was separated by a veil.

But his eyes regretted, everything was an illusion, not to mention that this woman would only repeat the words in the nightmare, and she was not a person at all.

The heart refuses, and the curse is opposed.

The ice hand suddenly tightened, and Fang Liang saw its true face clearly at this moment: what kind of farm engagement ceremony is this, it is clearly a terrifying dark forest, a tree root drills out of the ground and binds its waist, it wants to keep itself here forever!

As for the thumping sound, it was clearly a corpse hanging upside down from the tree, which was blown into the trunk by the wind.

Those corpses were tied up with sackcloth, and wriggling mushrooms actually drilled out of the surface of the linen!

Looking around, Lu Ming and the others had long since disappeared, but the photo frame and photos were still in Fang Liang's hands.

Less than an hour of investigation time, at this time the sky is actually dusk again?

I'm afraid that the forest itself can't do this, and the time and space confusion makes people think it's still early, which is clearly the power of the dead line effect!

Fang Liang trembled all over, and an extremely palpitating premonition enveloped his body: the curse was ruthless and without warning, once it relied too much on the power of the curse, it would be able to seize all the initiative and kill everyone recklessly.

"Oops! It tricked me a little bit, and I missed the best time to return! ”

Thinking of the murderous phantom produced by the uncontrollable curse of the people in the middle of the paragraph, as long as it is dragged into the abnormal world line by that thing, it is equivalent to a certain annihilation if he can't find a way to escape!

"Gotta go back quickly, I gotta go back soon, I hope it's still too late......"
