Chapter 1356 Life-Saving Purple Talisman
This is a real ghost tide climbing the building.
Its form, specifications, and number are far greater than the one created by Ji Li.
Although this time is still not in line with the original rules, the priority of the clock rules is still strong, and Yu Lao Street has been ordered to enter midnight in advance.
From a certain perspective, Mei Sheng's action has offset Yu Lao Street's 48-hour mission by nearly three hours.
From today, the time rules of Yu Lao Street will enter chaos and can be modified by living people. The original real time is no longer important and is approaching nothingness.
The huge ghost tide queue, at a glance, there are more than dozens, nearly hundreds, and the number is still increasing.
The terrifying and oppressive atmosphere of despair is like melting into the real air, and the bad weather of rain and wind has further expanded its influence.
That kind of irresistible control force is invisible but pervasive, and there is no power that can compete with it.
Not to mention Lan Yu and Clyde, even the originally arrogant First Hand Ghost was completely tamed after stepping onto the narrow stairs of the South Building.
Its posture was still ferocious, but its overall momentum was completely wiped out, and it truly merged into the ghost tide queue, without any struggle or movement.
This great and deep rule power announced that the supernatural incident in Room 201 was completely resolved.
The twin female ghosts, as the spokespersons of the root ghosts, successfully used the wisdom of the clerk to completely suppress the First Hand Ghost.
Perhaps the third stage inferred by Lan Yu will inevitably come soon.
It's a pity that he and Clyde, the two survivors, also stepped onto the narrow stairs of the South Building, forcibly merged into the rules as ghosts, and headed for an unknown destination.
Mei Sheng was also out of control, and had already joined the ghost tide queue on the 14th floor in advance.
The old clock represents the time rules of Yu Lao Street. Whoever can control it has the right to manipulate time.
But unfortunately, except for Ji Li and the unknown clerk at No. 1818, all the Yu Lao Street in reality is branded by the twin ghosts.
The twin ghosts don't have any particularly powerful abilities, but their methods are extremely terrifying - turning people into ghosts!
This ghost transformation is not the same as transformation.
Because Mei Sheng, as a witness, even if she stood in the queue of the ghost tide, she still retained complete and clear thinking ability.
Obviously, the twin ghosts can only transform the identity of a living person into the identity of a ghost, and have no ability to modify the fundamental attributes.
"Their purpose is to let the clerk go to an unknown place with the ghost tide!"
Mei Sheng's actions were suppressed by the desperate atmosphere and were out of her control, but she was still able to analyze the current situation.
As more and more core clues appeared, the inside story of the origin of Yu Lao Street was also revealed one by one.
Yu Lao Street is by no means an ordinary task that can be passed by staying alive in their own ghost rooms for 48 hours.
Its hidden other side is the most terrifying place.
The ghost tide climbing the building at midnight is to gradually expose the hidden side and let the store employees experience the real horror of this mission.
It can be seen from this that the destination of the climbing building event is extremely dangerous and terrifying, and it is very likely that living people will die if they enter!
After avoiding the strange room, they still couldn't avoid the big event.
Mei Sheng knew that this was the twin female ghosts, that is, the root ghost, and a big purge of all the store employees on the first night.
People related to the female ghosts were forcibly modified in their identities, thus being dragged into the ghost tide climbing the building event.
But the most powerless thing is that they have no ability to resist and struggle. Excessive information ambiguity has caused them to be completely unaware of the root ghost, the twin female ghosts, and the ghost tide climbing the building.
The next destination is the 18th floor, where Room 1818 was the final place where the big-eyed doll disappeared.
Then, the 1818th room of the big-eyed doll, the unknown clerk who never appeared, the end of the ghost tide climbing the stairs...
All kinds of unsolved mysteries lingered in Mei Sheng's heart. She tried hard to raise her head to take a look at the ghost tide queue that was gradually approaching below, but she couldn't do it.
Going to the end was not what she was afraid of, but it was a pity that the clock could not be carried with her.
Before turning into a ghost, Mei Sheng tried to re-adjust the clock hands to modify the time, turning and turning... until the 48 hours of the mission deadline were skipped.
But this approach would definitely not work.
Mei Sheng realized that although the time of the clock could be modified, it was limited to "24 hours of the day", and zero o'clock was a unique time that could not be modified.
She just felt sorry that the clock could not be with her, but she was not too afraid of the road ahead.
After life and death again and again, in countless tasks, an iron rule had long been engraved in everyone's heart.
"If you want to survive, sitting here and staying here is useless. You must explore forward, challenge the unknown and seize clues. This is the only chance to survive in the mission."
"The end of the ghost tide climbing the building is a great terror, but it must also be a great opportunity!"
Lan Yu has already walked to the eighth floor. In front of him is a human skin skeleton, and behind him is a seriously injured Clyde.
Anyone who has experienced the change of identity will naturally come to the corresponding guess. He also knows what Mei Sheng thought.
All this did not make the seriously injured Lan Yu timid. On the contrary, he saw the hope of completing the mission.
There must be the deployment of the root ghosts at the end, or even the other side of Yu Lao Street, and the danger must be far greater than before.
But if you can successfully survive it, most of the mysteries will eventually be revealed.
For example, why are there so many ghosts in Yu Lao Street, and why do the dead turn into ghosts on the spot, resulting in so many ghosts sitting in Yu Lao Street.
The end of the narrow staircase in the South Building is the starting point of hope.
The third stage that Lan Yu is looking forward to, whether it is great terror or order and peace, will be revealed immediately.
"I will definitely encounter something I can't bear when I reach the end of this broken ladder. Should I go or not?"
Clyde's injuries are far more serious than anyone else's. Even if his body is controlled by an alternative force at this moment, he can still feel the pain of losing vitality.
As far as the current situation is concerned, let alone that he has lost nearly half of his life, even if he is intact, I am afraid he has no confidence to walk out of the mysterious end.
The ninth branch was Clyde's first mission as the store manager. In the blink of an eye, three hours later, all three store employees died, and he became a store manager without a single person.
Such a heavy loss made the always optimistic Clyde lose his confidence.
Walking towards the higher floors step by step, he was also weighing and worried.
This book was recently updated in ##六x-on:x-on:九x-on:x-on:x-on:书x-on:x-on:吧!! Update!
"If the charlatan was here, he would definitely be able to help me decide..."
Clyde was hesitating. He had a deep premonition that once he really followed the ghost tide to the end, it would be difficult for him to get out again.
Now, his body was uncontrollable, but his mind was still running.
Something was hovering in his mind, like a virtual, but also like a physical, perhaps it was what he relied on.
Seeing that the queue had passed the fifteenth floor, there were only two floors left to the final peak.
The ghosts in front disappeared one by one at the entrance of the eighteenth floor. Obviously, the end was there, and there was not much time to think.
Clyde's inner struggle became more intense. Perhaps it was something hovering in his brain that made him have a higher level of foresight than ordinary people for things that have not yet happened.
We were approaching the top floor.
In this trapped place surrounded by buildings on all sides, a breath of free breathing finally appeared.
In the heavy rain, Clyde's blue eyes seemed to see a hunched, tired old Taoist with a goatee.
In the six months since he came to the ninth branch, he had already cut off his past life.
In this new life full of cunning and danger, he didn't have many friends, but this pair of Christians and Taoist priests who ridiculed each other and always quarreled became each other's only good friends.
"I don't know if that charlatan has broken the dilemma and regained his life..."
The heavy rain blurred his vision and helped Clyde make this difficult choice.
The thing hovering in his brain became clearer and closer, and a ray of golden light bloomed from Clyde's forehead, as if a sunrise rose in the terrifying South Building.
A long purple talisman flew out from his forehead and floated in front of him, with obscure and unrecognizable golden handwriting drawn on it.
The words were bathed in golden light, and revived a huge spiritual power on the purple talisman paper. When the golden light was the brightest, it spontaneously ignited in the air without fire.
As the purple talisman burned, Clyde's hand clenched into a fist, and the desperate and oppressive rules completely failed on him, and even the lost flesh and blood began to sew up again.
In the blink of an eye, his injuries three hours ago were completely healed, and he returned to the previous high-spirited blond young man.
With the help of this talisman, Clyde seemed to have reset everything he had, and since then he had regained his freedom, forcibly breaking out of the ghost tide queue and running wildly along the sixteenth floor.
He had never used it when he was in danger several times in Room 201, but now he used it before he was about to go to the unknown destination.
No one knows whether such a sinful thing that defies heaven should appear at this time, maybe it is unnecessary, or maybe it will have other miraculous effects.
In those wind and rain, the blond young man running on the concrete ground, his eyes reflected the purple talisman, and recalled the past.
…
On the top of the mountain at dawn, on the green grass.
The old Taoist who had just finished his drunken madness, looked at the blond young man who was about to participate in the fifth store manager mission with drunken eyes, and his heart was mixed with mixed feelings.
He had a lot to say, but in the end he didn't say anything.
He didn't want to lose this friend, just as Clyde didn't want to lose him at this moment.
So, the old Taoist sent a real life-saving purple talisman at that time, and locked it into Clyde's mind while he was drunk and sleepy.
"I only have one of this talisman. Even Gu Xingjian doesn't know it. It can help you reset everything when you are in a desperate situation."
Perhaps even the Taoist himself could not have thought of it...
The talisman that was given to Clyde to fight Gu Xingjian was kept until today, helping him escape the road to the end of Yu Lao Street.
