Strange story player

Didn't you hide it from him?

"When did you find out?" Qin Manjiang asked.

"Now." The gloomy skylight fell on Shen Kui's face, making his already malicious expression even more unpredictable.

Qin Manjiang was speechless.

Fraudulent me?

However, it doesn’t matter anymore.

"It's getting dark. From the news you got, is what the dean said true?" Qin Manjiang asked.

This is his biggest concern.

He has been in a nursing home and has received no information at all.

Shen Ku nodded, walked forward, and said, "It's almost as if everyone in this village is dead. The nursing home where you are is probably the only place where there are living people."

Shen Kui briefly recounted his findings and... the stories he heard from Xu Tingfang.

"Records of Sick Village?" Qin Manjiang followed Shen Hui's footsteps, but his heart twitched, "Is this the book Xu Tingfang found in the village library?"

"Did you also discover it?" Shen Mu seemed to be very satisfied with Qin Manjiang's reaction and nodded: "Yes, although it is currently impossible to tell whether those books are hallucinations in Xu Tingfang's eyes or real things, they can be left behind and made into There is something wrong with a book itself.”

"The birth of any ghost story must be at a different time point than usual. The time point of the sick village is the missing old man in the nursing home." Shen Kui continued.

"I found a record in the supermarket's account book. An old man went to the supermarket and bought a large amount of alcohol. According to the "Sick Village Record", alcohol can destroy the 'frog egg' virus before it can parasitize the human body. Once it parasitizes the human body, alcohol will only act as a catalyst for it to quickly turn into an adult worm."

"No one remembers the old man in the nursing home. It's not normal. What reasons can you think of to explain this phenomenon?"

Shen Ku asked.

"Two possibilities." Qin Manjiang's answer was very fast, which surprised Shen Kui.

Although he was sure that the masked person in front of him was Qin Manjiang, there were some differences between this Qin Manjiang and the Qin Manjiang he knew.

If he was like a rushing river before, he looked full of fierceness and enthusiasm at first glance.

Now he is just a river flowing quietly, calm and waveless, reflecting the sunset.

Although there are less surging snow-white water splashes, we can vaguely glimpse the deep darkness at the bottom of the river.

"All ears." Shen Hu glanced sideways at Qin Manjiang.

"Passive forgetfulness, that old man is a ghost. It has the ability to make everyone forget themselves." Qin Manjiang looked around. After the fog dissipated, the whole picture of the sick village was finally imprinted in his eyes in the dim light. "If If this is the case, then why are nursing homes the exception to this dead village?”

"What about the second possibility?"

Shen Ku continued to ask.

Qin Manjiang looked at him with deep and calm eyes: "What do you think?"

Shen Hu was a little surprised. Qin Manjiang's reaction was more and more beyond his expectation.

But this satisfied him even more.

Shen Kui is different from others. He is not in a hurry to escape [Pupillary Realm]. It can even be said that the real world is no longer interesting to him. Only in this place, where he can feel death and heartbeat at any time. , so that he can have some feeling that he is still alive.

It's a pity that there are fewer and fewer interesting people in [Tongjie], but fortunately Qin Manjiang is becoming more and more interesting.

"Using your words, the second possibility is..." Shen Ku didn't mind, he spoke his opinion slowly, "Active forgetting, the subconscious of the people in this village doesn't want to remember who the old man is, so , their brains blocked the old man’s existence on their own.”

Seeing that he told the truth, Qin Manjiang also withdrew his gaze and asked: "What other information is there in "Records of the Sick Village"?"

"If I have to say it, "Records of the Sick Village" is a reminder left to Xu Tingfang in the library area. The reminder I got from the supermarket area is the accounting book. You should know that the source of everything is in the nursing home, in the missing old man, no matter what Whether you forget actively or passively, that old man is the key."

Having said this, Shen Hu couldn't help but laugh: "No wonder the dean is so confident. He knows that we want to crack the secrets of this village, so he will definitely go back to the nursing home to find clues about the missing old man."

Qin Manjiang nodded slightly and agreed with Shen Hu's statement.

That's right, all the focus now points to the missing nursing home resident. No matter how hard the people in this village remember his existence, the nursing home where he lived should still have traces of him.

At this time, Qin Manjiang and Shen Kuai stopped at the same time.

The two of them looked at the fork on the side.

A woman with a pale complexion and bloodless lips stood there staggeringly. After seeing them, her body softened and she fell to the ground.

It's Yu Ruoli!

Qin Manjiang immediately rushed forward, helped her up, pressed his fingers to the carotid artery, and breathed a sigh of relief.

Still alive.

Shen Ku also came up behind him and said with ridicule: "With your attitude, even a blind person can see your true identity."

"But I'm more curious. Who has the means to pretend to be another you in [Tongjie]? And he knows almost everything about you."

Qin Manjiang ignored him. If he was curious, he was also curious about who that person was.

He asked about the old ten seats in Yuecheng, and Kukong answered him clearly that there would be no mistakes in that person, and he would never be discovered by [Tongjie].

Although Kong's words were convincing, Qin Manjiang discovered one thing at the time, that is... the person pretending to be him didn't seem to accept Kong's instructions.

Thinking deeper, maybe the person who is pretending to be him in Fucheng is not the old ten seats of Yuecheng at all.

That would be even stranger... Who else would cooperate with the old ten seats?

But now is not the time to explore this matter. Qin Manjiang tried to pinch Yu Ruoli's hand. She opened her eyes faintly, her pupils were still blurry and unfocused, and then closed them again.

"Excessive mental exertion. It looks like he was frightened half to death. I'll probably wake up after a nap." Shen Kui crossed his arms and glanced down.

Qin Manjiang pulled Yu Ruoli up from the ground and tried to carry her, but she looked half-dead now, her whole body was soft and she couldn't carry her at all.

Qin Manjiang simply carried her on his shoulders.

Shen Kui was surprised when he saw it: "You are good at physical strength. During the candy game, you were still the slowest and the fastest and weakest one."

Qin Manjiang ignored him.

The problem of lack of physical strength disappeared unconsciously after waking up from Yan Xiao's clinic.

Maybe he has eaten too much "raw beef" recently?

In short, he didn't know, speaking of it... In addition to being sure that he was indeed Qin Manjiang, Qin Manjiang at this moment really felt like his body was a completely different person.

"You don't want to carry her to find Xu Tingfang, do you?" Shen Mu asked.

"Isn't it possible?" Qin Manjiang looked at him.

Shen Su adjusted his silver-rimmed glasses and smiled: "No, the relationship between men and women is also normal."

Qin Manjiang looked at Shen Hu seriously and said, "I will carry you even if you faint."
