Chapter 4: Ten Ways to See Ghosts
Running back to the tenth floor, I saw three other people pressing all three elevators up, and said in surprise: "Why are you so fast?"
"Don't be fast, hurry up, there's a monster behind!" Wang Wencheng saw an elevator go up, five people went in together, and then filled all the floors, although it would be a little slower, but it was difficult for the security guards to judge which floor they had entered, and they could delay time to escape.
It's just that Lu Li's mind is slightly sober, and in the next moment, he is dizzy again, and all kinds of chaotic pictures appear in his mind, there are ancient creatures growing, there are wild people roaring, and there is a snake man-like existence, living in a city full of science and technology.
Raising his right hand with difficulty, he saw that the hole had turned into an equilateral triangle marker, and blue smoke began to emerge from it, and he was stunned: "That monster is locating its own time and space." ”
"Lu Li, what's the matter with your hand?" Bai Lu exclaimed in horror.
"Being shot by something that a monster spits out doesn't bleed or hurt, but it keeps me hallucinating. Lu Li shook his head, and more and more strange pictures appeared in his mind, making Lu Li's consciousness more and more unclear.
When the elevator reached the second floor, several people hurriedly ran out, and the voice of the security guard could be faintly heard.
"Get out of here first to avoid being caught by the security guards, and then get rid of your hands. Chen Qiao sighed and said, "Give me your hand." ”
Then he grabbed Lu Li's hand, took out a knife out of nowhere, and forcibly tore the corner of the triangle mark, and Lu Li's dizzy feeling disappeared a lot in an instant.
Wang Wencheng grabbed the backpack on the bookshelf and threw it out of the window, at this time, he didn't have to worry about the monitoring frequency, because the library was higher, stepping on the window, it was much easier to jump over, and the other three people jumped over smoothly, including Bai Lu.
"Are you okay?" asked Wang Wencheng solemnly to Lu Li, who was standing at the window.
Lu Li looked at the hole in his hand, the originally torn horn was slowly recovering, nodded and said, "It's okay, you be careful." ”
"Okay!" Wang Wencheng nodded on the bookshelf, and there was already a shout of security guards behind him, Lu Li hurriedly took a look, and his mind suddenly appeared a burst of dizziness, and some pictures poured into Lu Li's head, which was a picture that was plausible to the real world.
The feeling of landing made Lu Li sober up a lot, and his body involuntarily leaned forward, Lu Li still overestimated himself, his current state was not a year ago, he was even an ordinary soul now, and his control over his body was good at best.
Fortunately, Chen Qiao reacted, grabbed Lu Li, and pulled him to the toilet, Wang Wencheng behind him also jumped over quickly, and the five people picked up their backpacks and hurriedly ran away.
Taking off their hoods and vests and stuffing them into their backpacks, the five of them quickly blended into the crowd of students who were wandering around, and several of them returned to Lu Li's dormitory together, sat in the living room, and threw the four books they had stolen on the table.
"Now I'm sure there's really something supernatural going on in this world. Wang Wencheng stretched out his hand with a wry smile, and then saw that on his arm, there was a ball of turquoise pus like a living thing, constantly eroding his arm, Bai Lu hurriedly took out some tissues and wiped off the pus, but found that there were also those turquoise pus under the flesh.
"I just found out that I was splashed with pus from that monster, Lu Li, where are you?"
Lu Li took out his hand, and the triangular mark in the center of his right palm had slowly taken shape, Chen Qiao sighed, hesitated for a moment and said: "The pus on Wang Wencheng's hand can be removed with fire, just prepare burn medicine and move quickly." ”
"And Lu Li's wound is a little troublesome, his tongue is a hollow straw, which should have sucked the piece of meat in your hand into the stomach. Chen Qiao said uncertainly: "So you will have a kind of resonance with the perception of the Hound of Tyndallus." ”
"Of course, that's not the biggest problem, the biggest problem is that in about a month, the monster will come back. Chen Qiao said with a wry smile.
Looking at everyone's suspicious eyes, some blood beads floated out of Chen Qiao's hands, revealing his identity as a superpower, and he said with a wry smile: "It's not that I want to deceive you, but I have a last resort." ”
Later, Chen Qiao introduced the Hound of Tyndalus, pointing out that there is a protective circle on the eleventh floor of the library of Miskatonik University, which restricts the space jump of the hound, but this restriction is not complete.
Three billion years ago, during the chaotic period of the era, there were no restrictions on hounds, and they could get to where they detoured from a day of 100 million years, and it would take about a month to reach the current time.
"So the question now is to be prepared to repel the Tyndalus Hound after a month, and normally after only one repulsion, they will give up on hunting their prey. Chen Qiao concluded: "That is, the two of you." ”
"To tell you the truth, I'm fine with my strength, but I can't do anything to repel the hounds. Chen Qiao said with a wry smile: "So your way of life lies in these four demon books." ”
"Can't you go and ask the professors at the school? they should have a way, right?" said Bai Lu worriedly.
"We just stole something from the school, how can we immediately go to the net, let's read these books first, there is really no way, and then go to the school. Wang Wencheng didn't have much fear, he was not Ye Gong's good dragon, he couldn't ask for this kind of supernatural event, so he naturally didn't want to return the book and ask the school for help.
So the eyes of several people were all on the four books on the table.
The first is a monster chronicle, which records a domesticable monster called Baiaki, and this book is estimated to be in a different category than the other three books.
The other three books are all related to the supernatural, it is estimated that Wang Wencheng took it out together, one is a modern supernatural chronicle, which records some unknown supernatural events, and the other is similar, recording a supernatural tragedy caused by an isolated island sacrifice, and the last one is also a similar book.
The book is titled Ten Methods of Seeing Ghosts, which records ten folk methods of seeing ghosts, and finally says that once you start to see ghosts according to the above methods, you can't stop, and only after completing the ten ghost seeing rituals, you will stop hitting ghosts and get a state called the blessing of the dead.
People who have obtained this state will be protected from most of the curses, and even have the effect of forcibly extending their lifespan, and some people who have been cursed or have not lived a long life, and if they are desperate, they will choose this ghost ritual, hoping to complete ten ghost sightings, so as to obtain a new life.
Lu Li's gaze moved, and the result of the calculation on the body side was that if he obtained the blessing of the dead, Lu Li's connection with this world would be much closer, and then this Ten Ghost Ritual should be necessary.
