Chapter 267: The Miserable Rain
At that time, Gu Shang found that she could not convey the exact meaning when she spoke to me, so she changed her method and slashed herself with a kitchen knife with her backhand.
This behavior seems extremely crazy, but when you make a reasonable association with the previous scene where she was limited in speaking, it is clear that she is using this behavior in place of words to convey a key message to me.
"What message can she send by slashing herself with a kitchen knife?"
I sat on the floor, tugging at my hair and meditating.
In front of me, I lived the scene before Gu Shang died over and over again.
The kitchen knife slashed wildly, she seemed to know that she was going to end, so she chopped very fast, in that short period of time, she slashed herself more than a dozen times, followed by the yin fire appeared, burning her .......
I played that scene like a movie in front of me, once, twice......, ten times. “
My mouth suddenly opened in surprise, because I finally understood what this gesture meant.
As soon as I thought of it, I used the Ah Xi ink sword against the stone bricks on the ground, and slashed down according to the trajectory of Gu Shang's own kitchen knife.
Slowly, more than a dozen marks appeared on the ground, showing exactly the order in which Gu Shang was chopping.
I jerked to my feet, my head down, and stared at the ground with all my eyes down.
There are three capital letters on the ground that are not particularly standardized: H, R, and T.
It turned out that the knives that Gu Sheng slashed himself before he died were just to compose these three capital letters in front of me.
These three letters are connected together, if it is an acronym of an English word, it is too much, such as, water treatment process noun? Hostage rescue teams of a certain country, etc.?
I quickly translated in my mind, and then shook my head, no, it shouldn't be understood that way.
Such a translation is too unbelievable, is it possible that the term water treatment process will not help the current situation?
Gu Xiang, who weighs nearly 200 pounds, has a relatively stupid mind, but he won't agitate such a useless letter abbreviation at the last moment, right?
If I hadn't misestimated and the letters were not complete enough, Gu Sheng would have wanted to spell out a paragraph with letters, maybe in English or in Chinese pinyin, to tell me some kind of secret.
Unfortunately, she lasted so short that the rules of the place killed her, and she couldn't tell me all the secrets in this way.
I memorized these three capital letters deeply, stretched out my foot, crushed the scratches, and began to think in my heart.
For a moment, my imagination flowed wildly, and my mind flew too far, and all kinds of hypotheses and possibilities rolled through my mind, and I denied them one by one.
However, if you have three capital letters, there are too few clues, and I can't use it to piece together useful information, and if I make random associations, I may go astray, which is fatal.
Exhaling a breath and putting my mask back on, I slowly approached the cutting board, brushed aside the high pile of 'minced meat', and carefully examined the knife marks on the cutting board.
These scars are so disorganized that they can't form letters or runes, and they don't mean anything at all.
It seems that in Gu Sheng and Niu Jingxuan, only three capital letters can be found, and if I want to get more information, do I want to go through the entire Qin family's ancient mansion? Or can you find more clues by searching the entire Weidujing Village, so as to analyze the secrets of this place?
Hey, wait a minute, if it is said that Gu Shang's appearance is to convey me some kind of message, then not long ago, Lu Huipeng, who was transformed into a corpse, also left some kind of message? But I didn't notice?
As soon as I thought of this, I turned around and left the place, running towards the wing where Lu Huipeng died.
As for Niu Jingxuan who was chopped into minced meat? I don't have time to 'process' her.
is as weird as Lu Huipeng, Niu Jingxuan after death has no signs of ghosts, just like she has no soul.
This is something that I can't figure out, and it even subverts my worldview as a mage.
What happened in Weidujing Village, why did it happen, and why did it involve me?
These are mysteries that I need to solve urgently, but for now, I can only rely on the clues left behind by others. If there are any clues left.
I walked through the paper money in the yard, ran back to the wing, and when I entered, I saw that it was the same as when I had left, well, not exactly the same, the corpses mixed with the porcelain and food scraps, all gone, as if there was an invisible hand that had completely removed the fragments.
This change made my heart skip a beat, and the sense of danger became more and more obvious.
I watched left and right, my ears erected to listen to the movement, but there was not a single ghost inside and outside, only the movement of a light rain outside.
Yes, it has not yet turned into heavy rain, it is still a light rain, mixed with lightning and thunder.
The power was cut off in the entire ancient mansion, and the environment was dim as if it was evening, but fortunately, I used the Yin Detection Charm and the vision was not a problem.
No anomalies were found, which is probably the biggest anomaly.
Without thinking much about it, I surveyed the room, every tabletop, every chair, every corner, and even climbed up to look at the camera.
The power has been cut off, the camera can't be used anymore, and I don't know where the hard drive where the images are stored, otherwise I can pull it up and check it, maybe there will be more clues.
It took more than 20 minutes, I checked everywhere, and I didn't find anything new, I couldn't help but sigh, and it was frustrating to work in vain.
I walked to the door with my head bowed, ready to explore the other rooms of the mansion.
As soon as I stepped over the threshold, I suddenly froze, and then, slowly, turned my head to look to my left.
There are scratches on the door frame!
I was taken aback, and the location where Lu Huipeng first appeared flashed back to my mind, wasn't it near the door? Immediately after that, he was transformed.
Squatting down, I looked carefully at the side of the door frame, and my pupils shrank.
A crooked capital letter comes into view: M.
It turned out that Lu Huipeng had already left a message here, but he couldn't tell me clearly, what the ghost knows why?
Scrape off those scratches with the Nose Ink Sword, and this letter is already imprinted in the bottom of my heart.
So far, I have gotten four capital letters, but I vaguely feel that this is just the beginning, if you want to understand the situation, you need more clues, and the way to find clues should be on Qin Xuqi's six dog legs, and even, you have to add Qin Xuqi and Wu Xiaoqian.
My instinct is that the clues are in these people, and if I meet other people, I have to pay attention to them, and maybe they can tell me something.
After some thought, I found a clean plastic bag, sealed the food in its original condition, and stuffed it into the leather bag. I found some more mineral water to bring with me.
Food and water are carried with you, and even if you are trapped here for a long time, you will not starve to death. After doing this, I felt a little relieved.
After tidying up, he left this room, braved the light rain, and touched the backyard of the Qin family's ancient mansion against lightning.
According to the ancient building specifications, the ancient house is divided into several entrances, and the ones behind should be the women's residential area, and outsiders are generally not allowed to enter, but at the moment I still care about that many? Of course I won't let it go.
Turning a stone path, skirting the flower beds, and entering the courtyard to show my eyes, I stood suddenly, and then, hiding behind the old tree next to me, I looked at the end of the stone path, where there was a faint sound of footsteps.
My heart lifted, and I stared at it without blinking under the cover of the old tree.
The footsteps were getting closer, and my hands shook violently.
Two shadows flashed, and they looked intimate, holding hands.
However, they are 'flat'.
Two human skins walking in clothes, to be exact.
To be more precise, it was Qin Chopsticks and Sister Hong who walked over hand in hand, but the flesh and bones in their bodies seemed to have disappeared, and when they looked at it, they were two bloodless and white faces!
These two human skins with the skin on the front chest and back almost in one place are walking in the light rain with the loose red Tang costume that is about to fall off.
The strange footsteps are made by the 'human skin couple'!
I trembled in shock and couldn't believe what I was seeing.
