Chapter 56: Ordinary Maps
Perhaps, Wu Yan's reasons for killing those three people are different, and one of the victims may not have a deep grudge against him, and it is likely to be manslaughter. This also shows that he is not a mad murderer, but because of hatred, he finally embarked on this road of no return.
Shi Yuan did not continue to analyze. They are not ordinary encounters, and in the current situation, the first thing to consider is their own survival.
For Wu Yan, Shi Yuan remained vigilant, but that's all.
In contrast, what he cared more about was the supernatural event information brought by Shen Ethereal.
The reason why he asked Shen Ethereal to search for this information was because he wanted to know how far "that power" covered.
From the very beginning of his exposure to the concepts of "bright world" and "dark world", Shi Yuan suspected that perhaps the whole world had been cursed by some kind. All he needed was further evidence.
When he saw this stack of materials, Shi Yuan understood that it was not only the Dark Crow Ridge that was affected by the curse, but the entire human world. He even suspected that there were many more paranormal events that no one was aware of, because "that power" could affect people's memories. Perhaps, some people witnessed the most terrifying and strange events, but soon their memories were affected, and then they forgot about it completely.
The way we think our lives are probably just a different way. The true face of this world may not be known at all.
Perhaps each of us has experienced something incomprehensible and just forgotten it.
Perhaps, desperately trying to escape from Raven Ridge is pointless, because everywhere, humans will easily die.
Shi Yuan sighed and put away his chaotic thoughts.
There are only five people here, absolutely impossible to be all of them. At least, Yukino Takegami and Gou Xiaoxiao have not yet appeared.
Shi Yuan moved the flashlight in another direction, and he saw that this was a classroom, but all the desks and chairs were piled up at the back of the classroom, which seemed a little empty.
The flashlight swept over, and the strange atmosphere made Shi Yuan couldn't help but feel nervous.
He suddenly remembered the scene from before.
The broken stairs and floors, Yang Xiuning half of her body, the cold and wriggling "things......
"Let's get out of this building first."
Before he could finish speaking, he had already taken steps and ran towards the classroom door.
Just as he was about to run to the door, the door that had been wide open slammed shut. Then, there was a strange sound on the blackboard in the classroom, like an invisible hand scratching its nails on the blackboard.
Going to show up?
Shi Yuan looked at the blackboard and subconsciously glanced at Wu Yan.
Although he judged that Wu Yan was not a murderer, it was better to be careful.
With the sound of fingernails scratching, white lines appeared on the blackboard.
"The scavenger hunt is about to begin. Each of you will be given a map to use to find treasures. During the game, anyone who finds the artifact and brings it back to the classroom is considered a success and can return to the real world. Those who are unable to find the treasure after three hours will remain here forever. The map is in your pocket, please take it out yourself. ”
After reading the explanation, Shi Yuan immediately put his hand into his pocket and took out a map.
The map was a little different from ordinary paper maps, it was printed on transparent cellophane, and although the lines were clear, I always felt a little weak.
Also, the map seems to be a bit old and slightly dirty.
Here, it is obvious that it is Haiyuan University of Technology. School buildings, playgrounds, libraries, and other places are depicted on the map, and text is written on them, making it easy to determine the location.
However, the most important thing is missing.
On the map, there is no location of the so-called treasure at all.
According to the normal way of thinking, if it is a treasure map, it should have at least one sign indicating the location of the treasure, such as a bold red letter X. However, this map, no matter how you look at it, only paints an overlook of the campus, and nothing else.
Want to find a treasure with such a thing?
Jiang Hongting was a little dumbfounded, and then he looked at Shi Yuan.
Of the five, only one did not move.
Wu Yan.
His brow furrowed, and he seemed extremely dissatisfied.
No one spoke to him, but he said to himself: "Back to reality in three hours?" Am I going to be put to death? Then what kind of treasure am I looking for? ”
His face looked more and more hideous.
Still no one paid attention to him.
Suddenly, the classroom door creaked open, and there was no one outside.
Jiang Hongting screamed and stepped back.
Shi Yuan also took a step back.
He didn't retreat because of the sudden sound of the door, but because he remembered that there were only four white figures in the Perception Domain, but there were five people here, and it was likely that one of them was not alive.
The person who is not a living person may naturally be Jiang Hongting. Of course, others are equally doubtful.
What made Shi Yuan's heart extremely uneasy was that he felt that his perception domain seemed to be "out of order", and since the moment he woke up, the four white human figures in the perception domain had not changed. The five of them had naturally moved, but the humanoids had never moved.
Shi Yuan even had a somewhat absurd idea.
He felt like a person looking at the surveillance footage, thinking that what he was seeing was a real-time image, only to realize that it was just a static picture.
In addition, he did not feel any anomalous aura.
His perception was affected again, and Shi Yuan felt very uncomfortable, and at the same time, he also had a trace of worry.
"Let's go, let's go out first."
Although the perception ability has lost its effect now, Shi Yuan's disgust and fear of this teaching building are still there.
The words "cold" and "wriggling" swirled in his mind, as irritating as maggots on tarsal bones.
Fortunately, this time they ran out with ease, unhindered and without seeing any visions.
However, Shi Yuan and the others did not take it lightly, but kept paying attention to their surroundings.
"Huh? The man didn't come out. ”
Jiang Hongting stood outside the gate, turned his head to look, and found that Wu Yan was gone.
What Wu Yan said just now, several of them heard it. They all thought that Wu Yan probably gave up.
"Forget it, we can't do anything about him."
Shi Yuan said, studying the map again.
On the surface, it's an ordinary campus floor plan. Treasure, where?
There was a lot of dust and smudges on the old map, and Shi Yuan was eager to take it under the faucet to rinse it. But he held back. He didn't want to change the status of the items in the mission at will.
He looked at the map and mentally analyzed the situation in front of him.
If Wu Yan is a ghost, he has no reason to separate himself from others. In other words, if one of these people is a ghost, then it must be among An Lingxian, Shen Ethereal and Jiang Hongting.
