Chapter 2400: The Haunted House

Ge Jing!

Looking at Ge Jing who was covered in injuries, Liu Xing said with some confusion: "Brother Ge, why are you back? Aren't you going to go over the mountain to another place? Why are you back now?"

Although Ge Jing was indeed injured all over his body, they seemed to be superficial injuries and his mental state was quite good, so Liu Xing didn't know why this person came back. Could it be that he was lost?

That shouldn't be the case. Although Ge Jing has been showing off for many years, his skills have never fallen behind. As for the various skills of traveling in the world, such as recognizing the road, he has not forgotten it, so he is in the mountains. It's impossible to get lost unless you encounter some magical beast.

Like the four-winged giant eagle from before?

That's not right. I had already sent Ge Jing away before going to Fei City, so Ge ​​Jing had been in the mountains for almost a month, so why did he come back?

If he wasn't lost, then Ge Jing must have encountered something on the mountain.

"I encountered a strange thing on the mountain!"

Ge Jing took a deep breath and said seriously: "Because there have been a few monsters near Tianshui Town, so there are almost no jackals, tigers, leopards and bears on this mountain, so I have had a smooth journey and have never encountered any danger. , until I passed by a broken house! This wooden house seemed to be a hunting cabin left by some hunters in the past. After all, if there was no foothold deep in the mountains, then these hunters would not be able to harvest more. prey, so I didn’t think much about it at that time and went straight into the house, but when I was about to push the door open, I felt something was wrong. Anyway, I got goosebumps all of a sudden.”

"The wooden house in the mountains? Is it the legendary treacherous house?"

At this time, Hong He, the chief physician of the new medical center and Liu Nan's great disciple, came over and said, "If I remember correctly, no one has been to that mysterious house for many years, or the Orion in this mountain." There weren’t many in the first place, because the hunters were afraid of encountering this treacherous house.”

And this thing?

Liu Xing looked at Hong He with some surprise, because there was no information about this wooden house in "Liu Nan's" memory. As for Ge Jing, he had the same expression. After all, if he knew the existence of this mysterious house, he would not He walked in so carelessly.

Seeing Liu Xing and Ge Jing's expressions of confusion, Hong He smiled and said: "One of you is young and the other is an outsider. You don't know that this treacherous house is quite normal, because this treacherous house is in the fast lane." It became famous thirty years ago, but no one has been to the Creepy House since then, or in other words, all the people who have been to the Creepy House have disappeared. After all, their home is here, but now they never go to the Creepy House again. If he didn't come back, then this shack must be cannibal! However, this shack is still quite picky. Even if about 80% of the people go in, they can come out safely just like Captain Ge. It was just a little injured, but the rest of the people went down the mountain from the right."

"Ah! Will something happen if I walk on the right? Fortunately, I walked on the left. After all, men are on the left and women are on the right."

Ge Jing said happily: "And there is a saying that when things go wrong, there must be monsters. When I saw myself suddenly appearing on a strange mountain, I realized that something was wrong with the situation I was in, so I I chose to go in the opposite direction and take the road on the right that looked more dangerous. However, this road was followed by a cliff walkway that seemed more dangerous, but it was easy to pass as long as you were careful. The journey is smooth.”

"Yes, the other side seems to be a broad road, but people who have been there never come back, and sometimes more than one person enters the treacherous house. These people will have differences on whether to go down the mountain, so there are some Those who stayed at the top of the mountain or walked to the left heard screams one after another on the road. It was definitely the most desperate sound they had ever heard in their lives. They could still feel it even though they were thousands of miles away. You can see how scared the person making the noise is, and you can imagine what happened to this person.”

Hong He's favorite thing to do after work is to go to teahouses and listen to Mr. Shu tell stories. According to his own words, if it were not more dignified to be a doctor, he might have gone to Zhuzi College to become a novelist.

So at this time, Hong He, who was fishing at work, entered the state of a storyteller, and said in a high and steady tone: "The weirdness in the weird house is weird. This is not because of the incompetence of words, but because of you. You won't see any monsters in the spooky house, but you will encounter all kinds of weird things, that is, things that you can't understand with common sense. For example, you just walked in the door and went directly to the top of a mountain. Although there is no sun and moon above your head, the whole world is still full of light. But you also know that the legendary ghosts are afraid of the bright sunshine, so those ghosts who are not afraid of the sun are afraid of the sun. It’s the most terrifying existence.”

After hearing this, Liu Xing had already guessed something, that is, this so-called mysterious house may be the fantasy dreamland in this martial arts module, but Liu Xing is not sure whether this fantasy dreamland is true or false, or that in this martial arts module Will "Dreamland" be a completely different world, for example, the mythical creatures in it have been replaced by Warcraft?

If this is the case, then these monsters may have emerged from these strange houses, and this can also explain why there are so many monsters near Tianshui Town. After all, there is a special monster spawning point nearby, so it would be abnormal if there were no monsters nearby. Of course, the reason why Tianshui Town was suddenly burned down in the past might be that a fire monster passed by Tianshui Town.

However, Liu Xing always felt that the situation of this strange house was very similar to the gate of the fantasy dreamland, and the Cthulhu running group game lobby only mentioned that there were no mythical creatures and the Old Ones in this martial arts module, but it did not say whether this martial arts module would be connected to the fantasy dreamland!

More importantly, many players believe that in the Cthulhu running group game lobby, there may be dozens or hundreds of parallel worlds, but there may be only one fantasy dreamland, because the area of ​​the fantasy dreamland is too large, and players from different parallel worlds can be thrown to a place in the fantasy dreamland, and then use those mythical creatures to prevent players from different parallel worlds from meeting each other. After all, no matter how powerful the players are now, they can't beat the mythical creatures in the fantasy dreamland.

The reason is very simple. The mythical creatures in the Dreamland can be understood as a full-blooded enhanced version, and when these mythical creatures come to the real world, they will be weakened beyond recognition. So if a player is able to easily deal with a ghoul in the real world, then when facing a ghoul of the same strength in the Dreamland, the winning rate will become 70% to 30%.

What, 70%?

That's someone else's!

Moreover, the mythical creatures in the Dreamland appear almost in groups, and even establish their own tribes and cities, and even worse, they will establish a kingdom. It is said that a group of deep divers built a new R'lyeh city in the Dreamland, but there is no statue of Cthulhu in this R'lyeh city, but Dagon and Hydra jointly hold power!

That's right, if this legend is true, then Dagon and Hydra, who have been missing for many years, may have evolved from half-step Old Ones to real Old Ones by chance. However, as acquired Old Ones, their strength is definitely not as good as that of innate Old Ones like Cthulhu, so they are afraid that they will be feared by Cthulhu when they return to him, because they are Old Ones now, how can they stay under others for a long time?

Moreover, Cthulhu is still sealed now, so you two Old Ones who can walk normally in the world will inevitably feel that you are more powerful than your master.

This is like in a certain dynasty in ancient times, Cthulhu, as the emperor, became weak for some reason and lost control of many things, and his right-hand men, Prime Minister Hydra and General Dagon, secretly strengthened their strength and even got the legendary magical suit.

They don't need to bow when entering the court, they don't need to name their names when praising or bowing, they wear swords and shoes when entering the palace, they record the affairs of the Shangshu, they supervise the military affairs inside and outside the palace, they are the same as the three officials in the government, they are granted the nine gifts.

With this set of equipment, Dagon and Hydra are fully capable of establishing their own business. After all, they are just the followers of Cthulhu. In layman's terms, if you listen to me, I will protect you. Now that my wings are hard, I must spread my wings and fly high.

However, doing so is somewhat inconsistent with the moral principles of the world. In addition, although Cthulhu is sealed, his star followers are not just eating and drinking, and they are devoted to Cthulhu and follow him through life and death.

Therefore, if Dagon and Hydra establish their own mountain in the real world, they will most likely be "attacked by the whole world" by the subordinates who are still loyal to Cthulhu. By then, even if Dagon and the two are already the Old Ones, they may not be able to hold on.

Therefore, if Liu Xing was Dagon, he would also choose to establish himself as the king in the Dreamland. After all, no matter how powerful Cthulhu is, he cannot reach into the Dreamland, because the Old Ones in the Dreamland are not easy to mess with, and there are also ancient gods and the like. So he can take Hydra and his trusted deep divers to find a suitable area of ​​water in the Dreamland and build a new R'lyeh City, but the Cthulhu statue in the city must be replaced with his own appearance!

Ahem, I'm getting off topic.

In short, the area of ​​the Dreamland is large enough, and there are all kinds of existences that players can't afford to mess with, as well as some terrains that ordinary people can't pass through, so it is completely possible to put players from various parallel worlds into the Dreamland, but it is necessary to ensure that these players will not run too far. Of course, even if one or two run away, it is difficult for them to realize that they are in contact with humans from another world when they meet players from other parallel worlds!

Moreover, in a parallel world, the number of players who have the opportunity to enter the Dreamland is less than one in ten under normal circumstances, and among them, less than one in a thousand will choose to stay in the Dreamland. The others will choose to leave immediately if they have the opportunity to leave the Dreamland. After all, the difficulty of the Dreamland module is there, and even players in the Cthulhu area may not be able to gain a foothold.

So the martial arts module can be different from other modules, but it can also connect to the Dreamland.

Of course, the Cthulhu Run game lobby cannot allow players in the martial arts module to enter the dreamland at will, so the door to the dreamland in the martial arts module should be hidden in a very hidden place, or there may be people around it. There are some powerful guards. For example, there may be a dream gate on the mountain where Guoshanfeng is entrenched, which is where Liu Xing went before in the module Tener prepared for himself. There may be a door in the abandoned ancestral house that leads to the dreamland.

So the key point now is to see if Ge Jing encountered any mythical creatures in the uncanny house. If he encountered a monster, then this might not be a dreamland.

By the way, would there be no sun and moon in the dreamland?

Although everything in the fantasy world echoes the real world, there are still some differences, so the mountain behind the strange house may be located in a place with thick clouds.

"The reason why the Tricky House is called the Tricky House is that behind it is a mountain that you have never seen before. Another thing that gives it this title is that the Tricky House will not stay in the same place forever. That is to say, in our In the mountains around you, you may find treacherous houses anywhere, so those hunters don’t dare to go hunting in the mountains.”

Hong He continued: "Although under normal circumstances, as long as you don't open the door of the treacherous house, there will be no problem, but as the saying goes, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, and no one can tell where you are. Sometimes you will be chased by tigers or bears, so it’s better not to go there! But to be honest, I don’t think this treacherous house is very scary, because you just don’t run around, especially don’t go to the right! That way, you will most likely be able to leave, but the time of departure is not certain. After all, you will find that the door has disappeared after entering, and it is not certain when the door will appear again. "

"That's right, I stayed on that mountain for more than half a month and saw the door twice! The first time was the day after I came to the door. At that time, I didn't dare to run around. Plus, There was a simple wooden bed under the tree next to me, so I decided to wait there. As a result, a minute before the door appeared, I saw several huge bats appearing in the sky. No, they should be bat-men, because Except for their giant bat wings, they look just like us."

As soon as Ge Jing said this, Liu Xing thought of Bayaki!
