Chapter 1315: Old Yu Rules
Time passed by minute by minute. In the bathroom full of strange smell, Ji Li wrung his long hair out, and wrote four words on the floor with his fingertips dipped in water:
"Ghosts are nutrients."
From the relatively safe No. 1414, we entered the dangerous No. 1413. After experiencing the life and death crisis in the previous few minutes, the information we obtained was also precious.
Even though the old ghost images in the living room blocked the road of comprehensive exploration, they also gave a lot of valuable tips to some extent.
Through those keywords filled with horror elements, an abstract and complete logical chain is gradually taking shape.
The relationship between the three parties is basically confirmed - they are nutrients to each other.
The old ghost living alone in No. 1414 uses the heart of the twin female ghost as nutrients to achieve a certain purpose by swallowing the heart; the ulcer of the ulcer of the twin female ghost as nutrients, and delays the ulcer of the skin by sucking blood.
In other words, the twin female ghosts are the complete provider among this pair of neighbors.
But equally, perhaps in the hearts of this pair of female ghosts, the old ghost living alone and the festering ghost can also be fed through unknown means.
However, this method has not been exposed yet.
But the source of everything was captured by Ji Li and he would basically not make any mistakes again.
The three ghosts are nourishing each other, which is the biggest secret and the most terrifying truth in the two rooms No. 1413 and 1414.
However, this is just the most basic information.
To relax the pattern, Yu Laojie's mission is not just one room, two rooms, and tracing the root cause is the only way to ensure survival.
A leaf knows autumn, and a small sees the big.
Ji Li can completely use the two rooms he lives in to infer the roots of the entire Yu Lao Street through some attributes here.
For example, why are there so many ghosts in this building?
There are at least ten supernatural events for ten clerks, and the number of ghosts is definitely more than ten.
Through the words of the old ghost living alone on the TV, Ji Li seemed to have an explanation - "The dead will turn into ghosts, and ghosts will turn into nutrients."
The old ghost living alone wants to kill Ji Li, and he is sure that he will turn into a ghost after his death and act as his nutrient.
In previous tasks, an iron rule has been emphasized countless times - the conditions for becoming a ghost are extremely harsh.
No matter how strong this old ghost is, he definitely does not have this ability.
Then a major information about Yu Laojie has since surfaced - the dead people in this building have the ability to turn into ghosts.
And where does this ability come from?
This may be the core line of this mission, and it is also the only way for ten clerks to dig out the truth, no matter how difficult it is.
For example, why can’t you speak?
Ji Li looked at Mei Sheng who was calm and almost numb in front of him. He no longer doubted the identity of this woman.
The previous act of murdering him was almost entirely to give him major information about the festering ghost.
At the same time, Mei Sheng's detailed behavior also attracted his attention - covering his mouth and closing his mouth.
The last hidden executive clerk in the seventh branch was Mei Sheng. The room she wanted to live in was Room 1413 next to No. 1414.
This pair of rooms with strong correlation is entangled with two supernatural events that have been separated by ten years.
Ji Li was sure that the information Mei Sheng knew was related to his No. 1414, and it was more and more extensive.
For example, the previous Moss password reminded him to remain "silent" or warned him to "escape quickly", which all mean that Mei Sheng, who was at No. 1413, had a lot of control over everything Ji Li had experienced on No. 1414.
This pair of store managers and clerks who have had several partnerships in past tasks were arranged into a highly relevant whole in this task.
For example, after entering the bathroom, Mei Sheng’s first move was to “cover his mouth”, leaving him silent.
This also reminded Ji Li again of the scene when he met a single female ghost on No. 1414.
The female ghost even "helpfully" blocked his mouth to prevent him from making a sound.
A coincidence once or twice is the embodiment of the rules.
Ji Li never thought that this was just the rule of two rooms 1413 and 1414. After all, even though twin female ghosts were theoretically involved in these two rooms, they should actually be considered ghosts outside the room.
In other words, "staying silent" is also a special rule in the entire Yu Lao Street!
Based on the clues currently available, Ji Li has drawn three rules on Yu Laojie, namely:
1. Yu Laojie can turn dead people into ghosts; 2. Ghosts can become nutrients for other ghosts, and their effects depend on the characteristics of different ghosts; 3. Living people can make sounds, but they must not speak.
At this moment, Mei Sheng, who had been silent, seemed to see that Ji Li's face had changed. He must have cleared his mind, so he took out an old mobile phone from his arms.
This kind of mobile phone is basically no longer produced on the market, and it is difficult to buy even if you buy it. It is the type of non-smart phone that cannot be connected to the Internet.
Mei Sheng prepared two mobile phones, which was her habit.
Although the big-eyed doll invaded the group chat on the eve of the mission before it started, Ji Li asked everyone to deactivate their phones, but Mei Sheng didn't know if she heard it.
When Ji Li took out this spare machine, he frowned at first, but he couldn't speak due to the rules, so he just took it.
The screen of the old-fashioned phone is very small and has few functions. Mei Sheng opens a text message page with long words on it.
And these words were actually what she prepared in advance and wanted to tell Ji Li about her experience on No. 1413.
Mei Sheng arrived at Yu Lao Street at 3 o'clock this afternoon. According to her own description, the entire building was actually owned by someone when she came.
Her identity is the far-far cousin of the 1413 decayed ghost. Because she came to SM City to work and had nowhere to live, she moved to No. 1413 because of her livelihood.
These backgrounds need not be said much, but are just a brief introduction.
What really matters is a series of experiences after coming to 1413. She did not encounter a major crisis between 3 pm and 6 o'clock at the beginning of the mission.
But it was not until 5:57 pm, when Ji Li arrived at the gate of No. 1414.
The TV on No. 1413 suddenly rang and a blurry scene began to play.
At the same time, a strange sound appeared in the bathroom, and the faucet began to release water automatically.
Mei Sheng was between the two, and chose the latter. When he went to the bathroom to check, the water flowed over the bathtub, and at the same time, a figure with ulcerated skin on his body sank at the bottom of the tank.
When she approached and checked, the festering ghost suddenly rose up and grabbed him into the bathtub, almost suffocating.
At the same time, under the boundary between life and death, Mei Sheng got the fragmented scene that Ji Li saw before, but perhaps because she was the identity of No. 1413, she got more information.
She saw the festering ghost's tongue, which was cut off while sucking blood in the living room, and could no longer speak.
As she struggled out of the bathtub, she returned to the living room with intense confusion, and it was just six o'clock in the evening.
There was a gray room on the TV, with no figure shaking, and the layout was very similar to No. 1413, but the direction was opposite, and the sound of plum blossoms was unclear at that time.
But then, the sound of unlocking came from the TV, which was exactly the time when Ji Li entered the door.
At the same time, a female ghost wearing a suspender white dress and disheveled hair flashed across the bedroom door facing the TV.
Follow-up...
It was Ji Li and the man in black who appeared on the screen, conducting cautious and careful tests. Mei Sheng saw all the scenes clearly in the form of live broadcasts.
The TV of No. 1413 can broadcast the trend of No. 1414 throughout the whole process. This correlation made Mei Sheng feel tentative.
So she began to tap the TV with the Morse code and gave a prompt of "silence", because she guessed that the scene of the festering ghost being cut off might indicate some rules.
Then the situation actually continues according to the development of the event.
While Mei Sheng was watching live TV in the living room, the bathroom door was opened, and the festering ghost ignored her, opened the door and headed straight for No. 1414.
So, a "warning" was conveyed to Ji Li through the TV.
Mei Sheng himself fell into deep thought after the festering ghost left, but the live broadcast scene was cut off since then, and a strange old ghost looked at her with a terrifying face, and the new attack of the new ghost began.
The successor of the festering ghost and the old ghost living alone appeared. The sudden attack made Mei Sheng unprepared and almost died.
Until she got into the bathtub, used the attributes of the festering ghost to remove the attack of the old ghost living alone, and finally waited for Ji Li's arrival.
This is Mei Sheng’s entire experience on No. 1413.
After Ji Li finished reading it, he fell into a long silence, but before he could look up, Mei Sheng took the phone in his hand, ticked it a few times, and pushed it back into his hand.
This time, what came to Ji Li was a video with very low image quality and screen recording, which also made him feel cold.
This is a 4-minute video of Mei Sheng using a backup machine to take a video of a group chat in the hotel mobile phone.
