The man in suit didn't even look at the twisted body on the bed, but quickly bent down and took out the cell phone inside the pillow, the screen still displaying the alert of the alarm ending.
The man in suit gazed at the body of the woman with glasses, his expression unprecedentedly calm.
Don't blame me for being ruthless.
If you hadn't died, then it would have been me who died.
“She's dead?” A voice came from the doorway.
The man in the suit kept his composure and did not move as he put his cell phone back into his pocket before turning his head, “Uh-huh.”
Xia Le Tian walked in and swept his eyes over the incredibly messy bed and the body lying on it, “Surprisingly, another one is dead.”
The man in the suit didn't say anything, but returned to the room.
Xia Le Tian continued to search the glasses woman's room, and the more he searched, the stranger he felt.
First of all, the first two dead people's rooms were incomparably tidy, and apart from the inexplicably dead people, the house had absolutely no traces of having been vandalized.
But the glasses woman's room was different.
She didn't die in the doorway, but on the bed, with an incredibly horrified expression that showed how scared she was, and on top of that, the messy bed seemed very much as if she had made it herself.
But why?
Could it be that she was looking for something?
Immediately after, Xia Le Tian noticed that the zipper of one of the pillows was opened.
Strange.
Could it be that there was something hidden inside?
Xia Le Tian didn't dwell on it any further, the shirt man had also gotten up at this moment, after seeing the inexplicable death of the glasses woman, he crumbled and sat on the ground, his lips began to tremble, “It's over, we're definitely going to die here.”
The fact that the spectacled woman died on the bed means that she didn't even open the door or go near it, so why would the ghost kill her while she was keeping quiet?
The truth is already self-evident.
That was that these methods didn't work at all, and the ghost's purpose was to decimate her!
Xia Le Tian didn't think so, since it was a game, there must be a way to survive, he just hadn't discovered it yet.
He asked the shirt man, “Want to go downstairs to eat?”
The shirt man raised his head and smiled miserably, “Eat, maybe this is my last meal.”
Xia Le Tian was silent, at this time he was not in the mood to be regulating the atmosphere, but patted the shirt man, “Never give up until the last moment.”
The shirt man shook his head and didn't say anything else.
The two of them went downstairs and ate a simple meal, and the shirt guy sat there again, fuming.
Xia Le Tian, on the other hand, began to search the first floor.
He placed his target in the utility room on the first floor, carefully pushed open the door, and soon choked and coughed on the dust inside again.
He waited for a while before going in.
Inside the utility room was piled with quite a lot of miscellaneous objects and furniture and other things, he looked carefully for half a day and couldn't help but eek out again, the floor seemed to be stained with a bit of blood, if he didn't look carefully, he might even overlook it.
Xia Le Tian squatted down to take a closer look at the bloodstains, and took out his cell phone to turn on the lighting function, and walked forward along this dot of bloodstains until a layer of cloth hindered him from moving forward, he tugged the cloth open and found that there was a hidden door hidden in this wall.
What could be inside?
Xia Le Tian's heart moved, carefully pushed open the door, due to the reason of too much darkness, Xia Le Tian could only turn on the cell phone illumination, then suddenly broke out into a cold sweat.
On the ground illuminated by the cell phone stood a blood red figure.
Xia Le Tian's hand holding the cell phone trembled slightly, and quickly remained calm again as he noticed that the figure did not move, Xia Le Tian's afterglow glanced at the figure, although he could not see the woman's face, he could see her twisted limbs as if they were being hammered apart a little by a little.
She hung her head low, her long hair tightly covering her face, and she didn't say a word the entire time.
The scene was extremely terrifying.
Is this the ghost that knocked on the door?
Xia Le Tian thought about it and decided to withdraw, but when he was ready to withdraw, something by the woman's feet caught Xia Le Tian's attention.
That thing, it looked very much like a book.
Xia Le Tian sprouted a very scary thought at this moment.
He was going to pick up that book.
Right under the eyes of the knocking ghost, pick up that book.
When this thought appeared, Xia Le Tian couldn't help but feel shocked by this idea of his, but he felt that it would be better to take a gamble, such as waiting for death.
That book was inexplicably at the female ghost's feet, which in itself was a very abnormal thing.
It was like ...... hinting at something to him.
Xia Le Tian slowly walked over, each step was extra cautious and torturous, and he was even prepared to turn around and run at any time, although he didn't know if he could escape either.
Finally he came to where the female ghost was less than a meter away, he cautiously crouched down and reached for the book, the knocker ghost still hung his head and didn't say a word.
When he got the book, he didn't dare to relax, but continued to slowly back away like he did just now, and then back away again, and finally closed the door and left there with quick steps.
When he returned to the hall, Xia Le Tian realized that his clothes were soaked through, seeing how nervous he was at that time, he pinched that book, his mood was beyond words.
Xia Le Tian put the book in his pocket and went straight to the second floor.
In the corridor, the man in the suit was walking forward, and after seeing Xia Le Tian he didn't say anything, but went straight back to his room.
Strange.
This should be the second time.
The suited man's room was in the first place, but what was he doing heading into the corridor for nothing?
Xia Le Tian's heart welled up with bad thoughts, but he couldn't guess them for the moment, so he could only go back to his room for the time being, and only then did he turn over the notebook and carefully check it out.
The book was tattered, and it was even stained with blood.
Above the first page, it seemed to introduce the name of a formation.
[Seven Symbol Transit Formation]
It detailed the things needed for the formation, as well as the function of the formation.
The Seven Symbols Transit Formation, as the name suggests, was used to transit wealth, but the formation and its mischief required the limbs and bones of one's own children to be cracked, and then placed alive into a secret room to wait for death.
The pain of being tortured and betrayed by loved ones and being thrown into a secret room to wait for death can make the sacrifice give birth to a powerful resentment at the moment of death, thus turning it into a red-clothed stern ghost.
Using it as the eye of the formation, together with the other party's blood turned into charms, pasted on the seven directions of the door, it can play the role of suppressing the ghosts, and finally sucking up the grievances of the severe ghosts to transform into the qi attached to the person who set up the formation.
At the same time, in the seven orientation doors, seven people must stay, as a way to strengthen the effect of the formation and prevent the female ghost from backfiring.
Xia Le Tian's face was quite ugly.
Although he didn't know who the person who set up the formation was, at least the origin of that knocking ghost was clear.
But right now, how could he avoid the knocking ghost knocking on his door?
Xia Le Tian felt that the one that the knocking ghost wanted to kill was most likely the occupant of the room with the sign, and as for the muscular man,...... it was probably because he didn't comply with the requirements of the game of death, so he was the first to be killed by the stern ghost.
The one who died tonight was most likely the man in the suit.
Wait ......
The man in the suit seems to be a bit of an anomaly these past two days.
Could it be because ......
Xia Le Tian's face changed slightly, as if he thought of something, he quickly searched the bed, but the result was that he found nothing.
Could it be that he guessed wrong?
Xia Le Tian stood in place and thought for a while, and then immediately knocked on the shirt man's room, the shirt man opened the door, his face was quite pale, he saw that it was Xia Le Tian, slightly froze, “What is there to find me?”
Xia Le Tian: “Let me go in first.”
The shirt guy subconsciously moves his body out of the way, then watches as Xia Le Tian begins to rummage through his bed and ends up zipping open the pillowcase, the shirt guy walks over in confusion, “What are you doing-”
The words instantly came to a screeching halt.
“Sure enough.” Xia Le Tian's face was gloomy as he opened his cell phone and saw the alarm clock set on it, showing that it was activated at 12:05.
“Whose cell phone is this? The shirt guy didn't understand what was going on, “How did it end up in my pillow.”
Xia Le Tian didn't say anything, the phone was set with a password that couldn't be tapped into, but he was 100% sure who the owner of the phone was, “It's the guy in the suit.”
The man in the shirt turned his head sideways, saw the alarm clock on the phone, and instantly changed his face after a moment of bewilderment, “He ...... he tried to get me killed?”
Xia Le Tian shook his head, “No, his ultimate goal is to make you a scapegoat.”
Although the shirt man was not good at thinking, he knew what this represented.
At twelve midnight, the alarm bell came from his room, so the knocker ghost would naturally target him.
And the man in the suit would survive.
“How could he do that?” The shirt man was very angry.
Xia Le Tian said, “People can do anything to stay alive.”
The shirt man was silent, only after half a second did he gnash his teeth and said, “Since he can do such a thing, then don't blame me for being ruthless as well, if you want to die, we all die together!”
Xia Le Tian didn't say anything, he had no reason to dissuade the shirt man from doing this.
After all, he was not the victim.
Moreover, the man in the suit didn't seem to have laid a hand on himself, but when the shirt man died, the man in the suit would inevitably target himself.
At that time, he wouldn't even know how he died.
Xia Le Tian returned to his room and began to think.
What exactly is the path to life?
How, exactly, do you keep the ghosts from knocking on your door?
Not letting the ghost knock on the door.
Xia Le Tian repeatedly chewed on these words, and his mind seemed to have caught some clue.
