Chapter 088 1552 Haunted House (20)
Thinking of this, You Jing lowered his head and asked Xia Yao questions in a gentle tone.
Xie Chi came to the rescue in time, and Ren Ze and Lu Wen were stunned. Xie Chi was obviously seriously injured before, but in just seven or eight minutes, he had changed completely from beginning to end, as if nothing had happened.
He was clearly covered in blood before.
Xie Chi covered his mouth and coughed, suggesting that they hurry up, and Ren Ze and Lu Wen immediately trotted over.
"I sent you a message asking you to come over, but you ran off to save Xia Yao? Why are you trying to save You Jing's girlfriend?" Ren Ze complained in a fake manner. He lowered his head and found that Xie Chi's hands were shaking uncontrollably. His heart skipped a beat, knowing that Xie Chi was not in good condition.
Lu Wen tilted his head and found a trace of blood on the back of Xie Chi's shoulder. You Jing was still staring at them from behind. Lu Wen thought quickly and calmly and naturally put his arm on Xie Chi's shoulder to cover the blood.
Xie Chi groaned, and Lu Wen hurriedly said loudly: "Ren Ze, stop talking, we are fine now, Brother Xie has done enough for us, this time is not enough."
Xie Chi looked helpless.
【Hahahaha, this is a real acting competition. I am dying of laughter.】
【I feel sorry for Chichi.】
【Lu Wen's acting skills have improved gradually.】
The three of them returned to the room safely. Lu Wen immediately removed his arm and asked worriedly, "Xie Chi, are you okay?"
"fine."
"Your speed in rescuing the situation is quite amazing." Ren Ze glanced at the chair on the side, where were the blood-stained clothes that Xie Chi had taken off earlier and the organs he had obtained.
He climbed back into the room through the window, put down the organ, cleaned himself, changed clothes, then contacted Xia Yao for help, and acted with Xia Yao as if nothing had happened. This series of actions could only be done by Xie Chi in an orderly manner.
Xie Chi smiled and said nothing.
Lu Wen, who was not injured, took out medical supplies from the box to bandage Xie Chi, while Ren Ze, who was slightly injured, handled it himself.
Xie Chi looked at Lu Wen and asked, "Did you find the sign?"
Lu Wen was so anxious that he forgot to announce the good news. He quickly put down the bandage, took out the sign from his pocket and handed it to Xie Chi.
“Well done.”
Lu Wen's face turned a little red and he lowered his head. This time he did not hold Xie Chi back.
Xie Chi glanced at the menu, which had three big characters on it: "Sanzhier".
"How did you find it?"
Lu Wen said, "The one who got into trouble was Ma Heng. He was sleeping, and just like us before, a bunch of baby rats appeared under his pillow. He was terrified and screamed, and used the knife on the bedside to cut the pillow, preparing to kill the rats. All the rats ran out and began to flee in all directions. Then one of them had a tag around its neck, and I caught it before it disappeared."
"Is that so?" Xie Chi seemed to be thinking about something. Now it seemed that except for the first brand of raw monkey brains which was extremely difficult to collect, the following three brands of APPs did not make it difficult for him. Now he had collected four brands, and there were still two left, namely Iron Plate Soft-shelled Turtle and Baby Soup.
Xie Chi glanced at his watch. It was now four o'clock in the morning. They were about to enter the fourth day. The film's time limit was six days, and half of it had passed. It was bound to be a fierce battle from then on.
Xie Chi recalled that except for the rat in the dish "Three Squeaks" which chose to harass the actors, the animals represented by the other three dishes appeared at night after the actors ate the corresponding dishes. He had never seen the animals represented by the next two dishes - turtle and baby - in the house, so the conditions for their appearance and production of the brand were already obvious - an actor ate the problematic dishes they represented at dinner. Only when those problematic dishes were eaten would the corresponding animals find them.
But now, thanks to Zhao Jinhua, they have obtained the menu and know the next problematic dishes, which can be almost completely avoided. Other actors will definitely not eat those dishes in order to survive, which in turn prevents the production of the brand, so...
Xie Chi made the decision without much hesitation.
Tonight he was going to eat a variant of the iron plate turtle and let the turtle come to him on its own initiative.
The female ghost has already obtained four teeth. Now every second that passes is their life. He can't delay any longer. He can only use this method.
As for the last dish, baby soup, if it really comes to the last resort...
Xie Chi pursed his lips tightly, his eyes were cold and emotionless.
Xia Yao had helped him before, so Xie Chi took out his cell phone and sent a thank you message to Xia Yao.
Xia Yao: It’s okay.
Xie Chi: You guys went back to your room, right?
Xia Yao: Well, he was watching outside for a while, and when he saw you didn’t come out, he went in on his own.
Xie Chi: Okay.
Xie Chi turned off his phone screen, stood up and said, "Let's go, Lu Wen and I will go downstairs to move my sister's body."
Although they were eager to stuff the organs they obtained into their sister's body, they could only wait until You Jing's doubts subsided. Now was the right time.
Ren Ze: "Then I'll look at the organs."
The two quietly moved the sister's body into the room, and Ren Ze took some effort to stuff the organs in one by one. The moment they finished, the three of them got their cell phones ringing -
[Sister gained a heart (2 times), a kidney (1.5 times), the entire liver (1.5 times), a tongue (1.5 times), strength increase: 1×1.5×1.5×1.5×2= 6.75 times. ]
[Congratulations, you helped your sister increase her strength by 6.75 times. ]
[It is almost dawn. My sister needs to adapt to her new organs and recover her long-lost ghost power. She will have the right to move around next night.]
[Due to your great contribution to your sister, you can now put her body into the APP backpack. ]
"Multiplication?" Lu Wen was stunned, then smiled and said, "I was wondering how to calculate it before."
"Isn't multiplication just a snowball?" Ren Ze curled his lips and tilted his head back. "Let me do the math. If we collect all of them, one kidney - 6.75 times 1.5 is 10.125, rounded up to 10, and if we get a baby, we'll triple that..."
Ren Ze glared and said, "That's 30 times the initial amount. Tsk, this is definitely enough to defeat my sister."
Lu Wen didn't know it either, and was shocked when he calculated it.
Xie Chi listened to this number, frowned slightly, and remained silent.
"We're still short of a kidney." Lu Wen smiled bitterly and looked at Xie Chi, "Do we have to go and grab the body tomorrow night?"
Xie Chi hummed softly, "6.75 times is almost certainly not enough. My sister needs organs to increase her strength. According to the general rules of confrontation, if my sister eats organs after killing someone, it is not necessarily because she is hungry. She most likely needs to eat organs to increase her strength. So we robbed her food, and she was relatively weakened. No matter what the reason is, we have to continue to rob corpses tomorrow."
The two nodded.
Xie Chi lowered his eyes and fell silent.
"Hey." Ren Ze called Xie Chi, "My sister will be able to move around tomorrow night. Isn't that great news? Why are you so unmotivated?"
Xie Chi said: "I was wondering how many times my sister needs to be able to defeat my sister who has all six teeth in full condition."
Ren Ze didn't understand, so he said, "If we move faster, can't we let the younger sister face the older sister who hasn't found all six teeth?"
Xie Chi smiled coldly and looked at him: "Do you think the APP will make things easier for us?"
"APP is always for the audience to enjoy, not for the actors to survive. What's more, there is Zhao Jinhua. I don't believe that Zhao Jinhua's presence has not increased the difficulty of the film. She has basically done nothing so far."
Ren Ze's happiness immediately disappeared, and he muttered quietly, "a professional at throwing cold water on others."
Xie Chi smiled and said, "Then did you put your sister's body in my backpack?"
Neither of them had any objections.
…
The next morning, You Jing discovered that the female corpse downstairs was missing, and he felt inexplicably uneasy.
He searched again and again, and turned the whole house upside down, but couldn't find the female corpse. The basement pitch black and bloody. Of course You Jing would not go down there. After all, that was the lair of the male ghost. If the male ghost attacked him, his mother might not be able to save him in time.
In the end, he could only assume that a male ghost had stolen the female corpse.
Nothing happened the whole day, it was so peaceful that it didn't seem like the fourth day.
The wound was still aching, Xie Chi stood by the door smoking, looking up at the overcast sky.
Dark clouds were rolling, the ground was still damp, the air was sultry, and ghost dragonflies were flying low in the flowers outside the house.
The ghost dragonfly is a gray dragonfly, dull as iron, ominous and gloomy, with a strong smell of death.
Xie Chi's eyes were filled with indifference.
Is it the calm before the storm?
He even felt that it would be over soon because it was too quiet and there was nothing to do.
But there is still a lot of progress to be made. The teeth of the sister line have not been found yet, the brands of the animal line have not been found yet, and the organs of the younger sister line have not been found yet.
How strange! Xie Chi frowned, feeling indescribably weird.
…
The night arrived as scheduled, and everyone watched Xie Chi taste all the dishes, all of them stunned.
Ren Ze tugged at Xie Chi's sleeve and whispered, "Are you crazy?"
He was stunned for a moment after he finished speaking, then suddenly realized Xie Chi's intention, coughed, gave Lu Wen a look, and then joined Xie Chi.
You Jing sat opposite, watching the three people try all the dishes, with a puzzled look on his face.
After the meal, Xie Chi and the other two went upstairs, while You Jing and the other three sat at the dining table. You Jing crossed his left leg over his right leg, then his right leg over his left leg, moving back and forth, obviously very annoyed.
"Mom, we've been looking for a whole day and haven't found a single one. We've searched the whole house thoroughly, where else could it be hidden? It's already the fourth day."
Zhao Jinhua was also very unhappy about this.
They chose to help the female ghost, but they also had to be on guard against the male ghosts in the house who might come out at any time to eat their internal organs. It was already not easy, and now the progress of finding the teeth was at a standstill.
"Did you find anything?" You Jing asked Xia Yao and Ma Heng without hope.
Xia Yao was thinking about what Xie Chi had reminded her of before, and was a little absent-minded. She said "ah" when she heard it, and then shook her head woodenly: "No."
"Alright, alright." You Jing looked disgusted and thought to himself what a useless woman.
[The most useful thing Xia Yao did was betraying you and your mother, hahahaha. ]
"What about you?" You Jing asked Ma Heng.
Under the table, Ma Heng nervously clutched his trousers, lowered his head, and shook his head woodenly like Xia Yao.
"Forget it." Just as he guessed, You Jing stood up in annoyance, "Let's all go upstairs."
…
It was almost dark outside, and Xie Chizheng and Xia Yao were messaging each other.
Xie Chi: Did You Jing and Zhao Jinhua find the teeth today?
Xia Yao: No, I will definitely tell you the first time he finds me.
Xie Chi: Well, thank you very much.
Xie Chi turned his phone around, frowning, and looked up and said, "They didn't find the teeth."
Lu Wen and Ren Ze looked confused: "Isn't it normal that we didn't find it?"
Xie Chi said nothing, turned around and opened the window. The thick clouds outside the window rolled even more violently, as if something was about to come into being. The invisible hints of the weather and atmosphere were so strong that Xie Chi once thought that things would get terrible at some point.
For example, You Jing found the fifth tooth, but Xia Yao said he didn’t have it. It was impossible for Xia Yao to lie to him.
Is he overthinking it...?
…
Ma Heng deliberately slowed down and made sure that You Jing and the others had entered the room and locked the door before he hurried back to his room.
He locked the door and his uneasy mood finally calmed down.
He had been trying to figure it out indirectly over the past two days and had come to a conclusion that after handing over the tooth to the ghost, the APP would not issue a progress update notification. This was very beneficial to him, as he wanted the plot to progress, but he did not want to offend Zhao Jinhua and You Jing.
He had to finish his mission and leave quickly.
Ma Heng was the only one in the empty room, and he was extremely nervous.
He originally had roommates, but they all died one after another, leaving him alone. Xia Yao squeezed in with You Jing and the others.
Zhao Jinhua's strength was far superior to theirs, and he was someone he had to look up to. Of course, he wouldn't bother with an ant like him, so in the end he ended up living alone in a room.
It's so hard.
Ma Heng took out the cross on his chest and bowed his head to pray for a few seconds.
This is his tool, called God's Favor. As long as he sincerely wishes to God, God will hear his wish and fulfill it. The bigger the wish, the smaller the probability that God will hear it. For a trivial wish like finding a tooth, he found it within an hour after making it during the day.
It's really unexpected.
Ma Heng's eyes flashed with excitement and excitement. He would soon be able to gain plot exploration without anyone noticing.
Ma Heng squatted down and dug out the tooth that he had hidden in his shoe early in the morning. After he found it during the day, he thought about it and felt that it was safest to hide it on his body. This was indeed the case. You Jing never thought that he would dare not hand over the tooth after finding it.
It was not yet time to turn off the lights and go to bed as required by the APP, so ghosts should not appear. Ma Heng thought so, turned off the lights, and imitated what Zhao Jinhua had done before, whispering to himself in the darkness: "Ghost girl, I found the tooth, come out and get it."
There was no response, just deathly silence.
Ma Heng almost suspected that only Zhao Jinhua could contact the female ghost. Suddenly, in the darkness in front of him, a slight sound of sucking saliva was heard.
A white tooth was revealed.
Then two, three, and four.
Ma Heng met a pair of ghost eyes with bulging pupils!
