Chapter III: The Beginning of the Contract (Revision)
The man in the suit was the first to ask Liu Feng, "Did you invite us here?" β
"No, I got a call saying that there was a training here," Liu Feng said
The woman next to her had a strange expression on her face and asked, "Oh?" You were notified by phone? β
Liu Feng wondered: "Aren't you guys?" As he spoke, he sat down next to them, next to Liu Feng was the peasant, on the other side of him was the woman, and on the other side of the woman was the man in a suit.
After sitting down, several people briefly talked about their situation and introduced themselves, the man in the suit was named Lu Zihao, according to him, he was a senior manager of a foreign company, and two days ago he inexplicably received a text message asking him to come to this place tonight. He wouldn't have come, but like Liu Feng, when he decided to give up, he also felt palpitations inexplicably, and finally decided to take a look.
The farmer's name was Zheng Chun, and according to him, when he returned home from a day's work on the farm, he found a note on the table, the content of which was the same as Lu Zihao's.
And the woman's name is Wang Xiaofei, who opened a cosmetics sales company by herself and acted as a regional agent for an internationally renowned brand. And she received this notification on WeChat.
Liu Feng also briefly introduced himself, only saying that he was a college student who had just graduated and was still looking for a job, and Liu Feng's temperament was completely in line with this, and the other three had almost no doubts.
In fact, Liu Feng could tell that the three of them were hiding it just by listening to it. But just like Liu Feng himself, there is such a strange thing and this kind of place, no one will trust others.
On the surface, it seems that a few people are talking and laughing, but Liu Feng knows that this is just a forced smile, because they all know that weird things are far more than that, judging from what he just said, Lu Zihao is from G City, Wang Xiaofei is from M City, and Zheng Chun is in the countryside, and the address written on the message is completely different, but several people came here at the same time in different places.
Liu Feng saw at a glance that Lu Zihao and Wang Xiaofei's legs were trembling with fright. However, that Zheng Chun was quite calm, Liu Feng inadvertently glanced at him again, and talked to Zheng Chun in a clichΓ©, "Brother Zheng, why do you still bring a pig-killing knife this big night?"
Zheng Chun said honestly, "Hey~ The place where I wrote on the note turned out to be a cemetery, and it was too dark at night, so I brought a knife to strengthen my courage"
Liu Feng smiled after hearing this, said a few more words, and found that this Zheng Chun was not very good at words, and he did not have too high a desire to speak, so Liu Feng joined the dialogue between Lu Zihao and Wang Xiaofei
After waiting like this for about 30 minutes, just when everyone was a little impatient, an old man in his 50s walked in from behind, this old man has thick eyebrows and big eyes, a Chinese face, if he is an actor, he will be able to play decent roles such as the old man and the white-eyed patriarch.
He coughed as he walked, walked towards them step by step, walked up to the podium under the attention of the foursome, and said: "The time is up, no one will come again tonight, I am your novice counselor, you can call me Jiang Lao, what I say next is very important, you listen carefully, believe it or not, don't interrupt me, after I finish speaking, you can ask a question for each person." β
As soon as the old man spoke, Liu Feng judged that he was the one who called him to inform him of the training. The old man didn't wait for Liu Feng and the others to answer, and then began to speak, it could be seen that Lu Zihao and Wang Xiaofei had something to say, but he didn't dare to interrupt the old man, and now he was just in a hurry.
"The people who can come here are all people who are haunted by ghosts, this castle building gives you protection, if you can't come tonight, then you will die a miserable death, and 10 people were supposed to be notified tonight, but now only 4 of you are here, and I won't say much about the ending of the other 6 people.
Now it's up to you to choose, the protection that the castle gives you is not gratuitous, as long as you sign a contract and become a contractor, the castle will help you expel them. The contractor will be given incredible power, but he will also face the threat of death at all times. Now you can ask questions. The first to speak was Wang Xiaofei, who couldn't wait to ask, "Why do ghosts haunt us?" β
Wang Xiaofei looked at Jiang Lao with a slightly pleading look in anticipation, as if he was waiting for a prisoner to be sentenced. Jiang Lao leaked out a playful smile and said, "You actually guessed it?" The cause of my own planting, and you still want to ask me? β
In an instant, Wang Xiaofei's face turned pale, and she muttered, "Sure enough, it's you, and you won't let me go until you die" Lu Zihao and Zheng Chun heard what Jiang Lao said, and at the same time their faces changed drastically, Lu Zihao was first frightened and then leaked a trace of guilt, as for Zheng Chun, his face was calm, and a trace of murderous aura faintly flashed.
Liu Feng has been carefully observing the expressions of several other people, all of which are naturally under Liu Feng's eyes, but now he is not interested in exploring the past of several other people, but he is a little dazed in his heart, Liu Feng has not harmed anyone. Why did the ghosts haunt him?
The second one to speak was Zheng Chun, who asked, "What else can you get by signing a contract besides strength?" β
Jiang Lao seemed to see through his heart and said, "Status, money, these can be exchanged, and after signing the contract, I can help you settle some things in reality" Hearing this, Zheng Chun's face was a little excited.
Lu Zihao pondered for a while and asked: "After signing the contract, can it still be terminated" Jiang Lao replied: "Yes, but certain conditions need to be met, and I will explain this after you sign the contract."
After finishing speaking, Jiang Lao looked at Liu Feng, Liu Feng thought for a while and asked, "Are you a contractor?" Jiang Lao was stunned for a moment, and a trace of memory and unwillingness flashed in his eyes, and said: "It used to be, but now it is only responsible for explaining to newcomers." Liu Feng had already gotten the information he wanted from Jiang Lao's words.
"Now that the questions are asked, we will start signing the contract, and of course if you don't want to sign it, you can go now"
The four of them all looked at each other after hearing this, none of the four of them were stupid, they didn't know the current affairs, the six people were dead, they all knew that if they went out now, probably the only ending would be to be killed in an instant, and they would die miserably.
Jiang Lao glanced at them, turned his head to the lectern and gestured, and then 4 pieces of parchment slowly appeared on the table, Liu Feng was not sure if it was a parchment, there was only a red circle in the upper right corner of the paper, there was a deed in the circle, and the rest of the whole paper was blank.
Jiang Lao said, "Drip your blood" As soon as Jiang Lao finished speaking, Zheng Chun took the parchment, and without thinking about it, he pointed his finger at his pig-killing knife is a stroke, and directly drew a hole, and the blood flowed, and pressed it towards the parchment.
The three people around him were speechless for a while, Liu Feng looked at the large blank area on the paper, he was sure that there should be words there, but they couldn't see it or it was added after signing the contract. But he didn't have a choice, he had to sign anyway. The three of them looked at each other, each biting their fingers and dripping their own blood onto the parchment.
I saw that the parchment immediately turned into a bloody "deed" character and flew to Liu Feng's heart after touching the blood, turning into a tattoo.
When Liu Feng focused his attention on the tattoo of the word "deed", a row of words appeared in front of him
Contractor: Liu Feng No. 69607 Constitution: Yin (Unable to open the skill tree)
Universal point: 0
Attributes: Strength 4 (5) Agility 6 (5) Physical Strength 4 (5) Perception 11 (5) Spirit 7 (5) The average value of a normal 30-year-old man in parentheses, strength determines the ability to damage and weight, agility determines the speed of action and reflexes, physical strength determines the resistance and endurance to abnormal states of the body, perception determines the intuitive judgment of things and the instinctive alertness to danger, and mental power determines memory, learning ability, and willpower.
The Nether's Ability Bar is open: Ability (None) is 19 hours and 23 minutes away from the next mission, so please return to the castle before the mission starts.
Liu Feng looked at the attribute introduction in front of him, first surprised, then incredible, but he also played online games, and the meaning was still understood, and after calming down, he analyzed and compared, and found that his perception was far beyond ordinary people, which was also reflected in his daily life.
Once, he helped a boss investigate his wife's cheating, Liu Feng went to his company and felt that there was a problem with a male assistant, without any basis or flaw. But Liu Feng just followed his feelings that time, and as soon as he came up to investigate the male assistant, after a few days of investigation, he found out that the problem was indeed an affair with the boss's wife. For this reason, Liu Feng also boasted privately for a few days.
Looking at the spirit again, it is two points higher than normal people, this should be Liu Feng when he was a child, he followed his father to investigate the case, and often did some targeted training so that he could quickly remember the crime scene, and he saw more dead people and criminals should also improve their will.
As for strength/agility/physical strength, it's about the same, I learned some boxing techniques from my father when I was a child, so agility is passable, strength and physical strength, there is no way After all, Liu Feng has not deliberately practiced, and he is only in his early 20s, which is far from the age of the peak of his body.
As for what a yin body is, he doesn't understand the two universal points.
Jiang Lao clapped his palms to attract everyone's attention, "Now you should have seen the number, attributes and abilities, and then every once in a while you have to return to this castle to complete the tasks issued by the contract, the content of the tasks is related to ghosts, and if you want to return to the castle, you only need to concentrate on the tattoo and return silently in a place where no one wants, but the interval between each task cannot stay in the castle for more than 12 hours." There are also 200 universal points that can be used to break the contract and leave the castle.
Jiang Lao was already a little impatient in his voice, and said: "As for the physique divided into yang and yin, the yin body is only one-tenth of the number of yang body, the yang body, the contract will open the skill tree, and the yin body needs to devour ghosts and snatch the ability, but these are not important to you for the time being, and these are only meaningful after you survive the first mission." β
As he spoke, he slowly got up and walked out of the door, and when he walked to the door, Jiang Lao added: "Those who survived the first mission will still gather here at 12 o'clock tomorrow night." β
When Liu Feng heard this, he didn't think much about the physique and the common point, the most important thing now is to survive the first mission, and he can't imagine the cruelty if he hasn't done the task yet, but listening to Jiang Lao's tone, it seems that if 1~2 of them come back alive, even if it is a fluke, it is more likely to be wiped out.
After Jiang Lao left, the four of them gathered around to discuss, checked each other's starting time for the next mission, and the results were the same, so there was a great possibility that they would complete the same task together, and the four of them came up with several sets of life-saving plans together, expressed some views on exorcism, and formed a group to decide to advance and retreat together at night.
Everyone should prepare something to ward off ghosts. After discussing for a few hours, the four of them left together, stepping out of the castle with their front and back feet, but after leaving the castle, Liu Feng looked at him again, and he was the only one left around, and when he looked back, the huge castle disappeared, only his jeep was still parked lonely in the distance, Liu Feng felt like a dream, but unfortunately the tattoo on his chest reminded him of the truth of all this.
