Chapter 138 Obtaining the Divination Results

August 1, early morning, player world.

The neon lights that never stop all night are reflected on the night sky of modern society, making the night look red and gray.

Li Feng looked at the sky without stars, and suddenly felt like he should eat whatever he should eat and drink whatever he should drink.

Just before returning to the player world, because of the invitation letter.

Li Feng walked into the Sad Theater uncontrollably and watched an extremely bloody performance.

In front of the birth bed where the Cinnabar Cup was born, the middle-aged knight who had fought for half his life first castrated himself and then cut out his heart.

And the other one, the Mother of the Mountains, who sounded very powerful, actually peeled her own skin.

All this was just to give birth to the Cinnabar Cup.

Recalling the content of the performance again, Li Feng felt his head buzzing.

But that's not all.

In the moment before returning to the player world, Li Feng clearly saw that he and Xia were controlled to go on stage.

In front of the delivery bed on the stage, one of them was kneeling and the other was standing, and they were actually going to perform the performance they had just watched.

He played the knight, and Xia played the mother of the mountains.

If it wasn't for the time of returning, I'm afraid I would be controlled by the mysterious power, self-castrated, and then my heart would be cut out.

'What should I do? '

Li Feng sat at the desk and carefully sorted out all the clues from last night.

When the strange things first started, he found an invitation letter from the Sad Theater in the room of the Blue Emerald Manor.

Then late at night, the fake Xia came to visit.

After resolving the crisis, the mirror broke and he saw the real Xia.

Then they appeared on the Lighthouse Island in an instant, but it was not a lighthouse on the island, but the Sad Theater.

As the theater appeared, they all lost control of their bodies, and finally the performance began.

'So the mysterious power that controls our bodies comes from the tower called the Sad Theater? '

There were too many strange things last night, and Li Feng found them after sorting them out.

No matter how weird the things he encountered before were, he and Xia had the possibility of solving them.

But since the appearance of the Sad Theater, they have completely lost the ability to fight back.

So in the final analysis.

If you want to solve the desperate situation of being committed suicide, you have to start with the Lost Land Sad Theater.

…

The nights in modern society are still noisy.

In the midsummer season, although it is past midnight, to some extent, nightlife has just begun.

In an old community in Yuncheng, the barbecue restaurants along the street are busy.

"Alas, birth, aging, illness and death are common to all people, brother, you should also mourn."

The middle-aged owner of the barbecue restaurant was paying the bill while persuading another middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man was wearing a white mourning hat on his head, and it was obvious that his family was holding a funeral.

"Even if he didn't suffer much, he is ninety years old, and there is nothing he can do about it."

"Yes, Uncle Wang is much better than my father at that time."

The owner of the barbecue restaurant said something and suddenly sighed:

"This person, once he gets sick, there is nothing he can do about it. No matter how much money he has, it is not enough to send him to the hospital."

They had already paid the bill while they were talking, and then the two chatted for a while.

The man wearing mourning hat who was doing funeral for his father, just carried several bags of food of different sizes and walked back.

Today, his elderly father passed away.

He died just a few days after the serious illness was diagnosed, so he didn't suffer much, and it was a happy funeral according to his age.

Although the son was sad, he was mentally prepared in advance.

Tonight, his brothers and sisters and a few good friends were going to keep vigil for their old father here, and he came out to buy supper.

The street lights were bright, but the old community was dark.

When the city renovated the old community, street lights were installed here, but there was no property maintenance. Later, the street lights broke, and no one cared.

Because he was carrying things in his hands, the man who was doing funeral at home could only walk to the mourning shed set up downstairs in his house in the dark.

In the early morning and midnight, in the entire dark community, only this dark blue mourning shed was lit.

Turning around a building, the man followed the light and looked far away.

Friends gave face and sent wreaths in front of the mourning shed, which were placed in two long rows.

The brothers and sisters also prepared paper people, paper horses, and paper houses for their old father.

According to the person in charge, there was nothing missing.

Tomorrow, he had to go to the hospital to get a certificate, and to the police station to get a certificate.

The man carrying the midnight snack was thinking in the dark, but suddenly he found that his feet were bright and there were blue and red lights flashing behind him.

Turning around, he saw that police cars were driving into his community and heading towards the building where he lived.

‘What’s going on? Are they arresting gamblers? ’

This was the man’s first thought, but then he found it wrong.

Even if it was late at night to arrest gamblers, there would not be so many cars, and among these police cars, there were two medium-sized cars like ambulances.

The man had been running to the hospital these days, and he instinctively felt that it was a medical car.

Maybe it was because it was late at night, and the police cars only turned on the police lights, but did not sound the sirens, but this was strange enough.

The man followed curiously, but found that many police officers had entered the unit next to him in the same building.

Even though it was the middle of the night, they set up a cordon and had multiple people on guard.

…

"Why did the paper crane become like this?"

In a rental house in an old neighborhood in Yuncheng.

Huang Yanyan looked at the scattered paper scraps on the ground and asked another old player who had just come from the headquarters.

"It seems that Zhihe has completely become a paper controller. I'm really curious about how you, No. 67, killed him."

Just at ten minutes past midnight, the player returned to the player world.

Qi Heng, Huang Yanyan, and all official players who knew about it immediately reported to the institute that Paper Crane had been corrupted and killed by No. 67.

When the leaders of the Yuncheng branch of the institute heard this, they broke out in a cold sweat.

Before the last time traveling, Zhihe did not report his location and lost contact completely.

Now that they knew the whole story, they immediately mobilized all resources and finally determined that Paper Crane had entered Yuncheng City and was suspected of hiding in a rental house in a certain community.

Because he only has one life, Zhihe was killed by Li Feng in the game world, so his body in the player world also died.

But Zhihe has become the paper controller, and his body after death is just a pile of scattered paper scraps.

"Because of the Theater of Sorrow?"

Huang Yanyan asked. In her impression, apart from Zhihe's talent in controlling paper spirits, he was quite satisfactory on the road to transcendence.

It is absolutely impossible to suddenly be promoted from the second level and the fifth level to the third level in a short period of time.

Judging from the kill record of No. 67, Zhihe had indeed reached the third level when he died.

The official players who arrived at the scene inspected the house first, and after seeing nothing unusual, they ordered people to clean up the scattered paper scraps on the ground.

"Last cycle I was also investigating the Theater of Sorrow and the Land of the Lost thing."

The more senior player who was just transferred from the headquarters said:

"By the way, do you know the Black Dragon Clan?"

The old player asked Qi Heng and Huang Yanyan.

"A dragon?"

Huang Yanyan asked.

"Yes and no."

The veteran player shook his head when he heard this:

"There are also many different kinds of dragons in the giant dragon clan. They are mainly distinguished by color. The black dragon clan is one of the branches."

"Black dragon? I remembered."

Qi Heng suddenly said, he asked Huang Yanyan:

"Do you know which branch of the dragon the dragon skull hanging in your Wind's Breath City belongs to?"

Huang Yanyan thought about it carefully and shook her head:

"I only know that they are the Dragon Queen and her husband. I don't know what color or branch they are, and I haven't heard anyone mention them."

"That's weird."

Qi Heng seemed to have thought of something and talked about his experience yesterday:

“Yesterday our Violet Eyes delegation went to Storm’s End, and Governor Fell also took us to see the Dragon Queen’s skull.

But he seemed to be very shy about saying that the queen came from the branch of the dragon clan. However, my instructor later said that the previous generation of dragon queens was a black dragon. "

"You're right."

The old player answered:

"I found some information in the northern forest. Among the entire dragon clan, the black dragon clan has always been the most powerful.

It is said that their ancestors once gained the power to become gods, but in order to fight against the lava lord.

The ancestors of the black dragon injected power enough to become gods into the earth to suppress the lava lord.

In the final war, the earth could not bear the various forces, and eventually collapsed and shattered, and countless pieces of land sank to the bottom of the sea.

The originally whole continent was broken into countless islands, which is the endless sea we see now. "

This was the first time Qi Heng and Huang Yanyan had heard of this information.

Although it was an ancient legend, they were still shocked after hearing it.

“The land sinks to the bottom of the sea?”

Huang Yanyan realized the key and asked:

"That means that the Lost Land was caused by the war that year?"

"Yes."

The veteran player nodded:

“But more importantly, I heard that even now, the black dragon ancestors still have enough power to become gods in the Lost Land.

When the Black Dragon Queen of the previous generation was alive, she had been searching for these powers at the bottom of the sea. "

"Uh...wait a minute."

Qi Heng listened to his colleague's story and looked at the piece of paper on the ground. His mind was a little confused and he asked:

"According to this theory, the Theater of Sorrow, as a lost place, also contains the power of the black dragon ancestors.

And Zhihe was corrupted by the Theater of Sorrow and gained strength from it. Doesn't that mean that he gained the power of the black dragon ancestor? "

Qi Heng's guess was not unreasonable, and it also explained the changes in the paper crane.

Now, the paper cranes, which have turned into a pile of scraps of paper, are being packed piece by piece into the heavy steel box of the institute.

The institute may process it, or it may directly seal it because it cannot be processed.

There are no such cases in history.

But what worries the three players the most is this.

Although No. 67 has killed Zhihe in the game world, he has successfully prevented him from harming the player world.

But the Theater of Sorrow, which contains the power of the black dragon ancestors, is very likely to have appeared in the game world.

By then, another disaster may be inevitable in the game world.

There was a gentle breeze blowing late at night, and the night wind flowed into the room, making everyone shiver in the cold.

On the back of the heating pipe in the rental house, a white paper figure that had been placed there for a long time suddenly moved.

This paper figure is only the size of a palm.

Its eyes were cut into long strips, but now, the corners of the long strips of eyes suddenly bent downwards, turning into a smile.

And its mouth, which had been cut into a smile, slowly turned into a grin.

The body of the paper man was extremely soft and slow. It clung to the heating pipe, the wall, the window sill...

Finally, through the gap in the window, I escaped into the night illuminated by neon lights.

The paper figure squinted its eyes, grinned with a silent laugh, and flew freely in the sky with the wind.

But it only took a moment.

It fell back to the dark community.

In the dark buildings, the paper figure was suddenly attracted by the light of the mourning shed.

What made it even more excited was that there were two of its kind standing there.

The two paper figures were a man and a woman. They were tall and painted with colorful colors, but their faces were very sad.

The white paper figure with a silent laugh turned around in front of them curiously, as if choosing.

Then, it suddenly stuck to the chest of a paper figure.

The next second.

The female paper figure used for funerals changed her sad face, her drooping eyes suddenly curved up, and she looked smiling.

At the same time, the corners of her mouth rose, and she laughed silently.

…

"Did the Black Dragon Queen find the power of her ancestors?"

In the morning, Li Feng sat at the desk, looking at the fortune teller's letter opener and the result of the divination.

‘What’s the connection?’

He was clearly asking “How to leave the Sad Theater alive”.

But this result…

‘Recover the power of the ancestors? The Black Dragon Queen?’

Looking at the words on the letter in front of him, Li Feng couldn’t help but think of the dragon head hanging on the tall spire of Fengxi City.

‘The Black Dragon Queen died earlier than me…’

Turning his eyes to the relic letter opener on his right hand, Li Feng felt mixed emotions.

‘Is this knife telling me in a roundabout way that I’m dead?’

Another divination result with a sad ending was interpreted, and Li Feng decided not to think about it.

This knife is unreliable, let’s eat first.

Li Feng picked up his phone and was about to order a takeaway.

But at this time, a news push came. He just wanted to swipe over, but suddenly saw the news headline.

It turned out that a family of five was brutally murdered at home in the early morning of this morning.

After becoming a player, Li Feng was alert to the dangers around him and began to pay attention to the news in this city.

So the news push he set up only pushes news about this city, so this case happened in this city?

Feeling a little alert, Li Feng clicked on the news.

The official news was very short, basically introducing the location of the crime, the number of victims, the casualties, and the police's full efforts to hunt down the criminals.

Feeling uneasy, Li Feng opened the short video software again, and sure enough.

Because the method of committing the crime was cruel and the victims included the elderly and children, this case has become a hot search in the local area.

Judging from the videos or comments posted by people who know the victim's family, this family is very ordinary.

The elderly are retired, the children are in school, and the husband and wife are both ordinary company employees. There are no debt disputes and no emotional ties.

And from the comments of insiders, there are no signs of theft in their home except for the wardrobe.

The wardrobe was just messed up, but the gold and silver jewelry placed in the drawer of the wardrobe was not lost.

Because the crime happened a short time ago, the police have not found any clues about the suspect, and only netizens condemn the criminals online.

Turning off the video software, Li Feng opened the system chat channel.

The players had just returned to their own world, and they were in a good mood. The chat channel was very lively.

But perhaps there were not many players from Yuncheng here, so no one talked about this burglary murder case.

Li Feng closed the chat channel and decided not to think about it for the time being. Anyway, this world has a sound judicial system.

Whether it is a crime committed by ordinary people or players, the authorities will handle it.

As for myself, I'd better eat first.

…

"Who did this? Why did you steal even this? Don't you think it's unlucky?"

In an old residential area in Yuncheng, several middle-aged people stood by the mourning shed and accused the thief who stole the female paper figurine.

This morning, when they were sorting out their belongings, they found that one of the paper figurines prepared for their deceased father was missing.

"Was it blown away by the wind? Who would take this thing?"

One of them said.

"There has been no strong wind since last night. It must have been taken away by someone. Otherwise, it can grow legs and run by itself?"

"That's right, who did this? It's too wicked."

Several family members were accusing.

"By the way, why don't we go to the police station to check the surveillance."

A middle-aged woman suggested that the deceased old man was her father.

"Goodbye, second sister. A paper figurine is not expensive. I will buy another one. If we really report the case, when the police come, it will seem that our family can't even handle a funeral smoothly."

The middle-aged woman's younger brother said.

"It's not about money. The key is that this matter is infuriating. How can you do this!"

Another child refuted.

"Stop talking."

At this time, the eldest brother who bought supper last night said:

"I will go to the police station to get a death certificate in a while. When the time comes, let the police check it by the way. If they can find it, they will check it. If they can't find it, they will arrest him. There is no need for us to entangle this."

The eldest brother said so, and the rest of the brothers and sisters agreed.

Seeing this, the eldest brother took all kinds of materials and went to the police station.

More than half an hour later, the eldest brother of this family came back.

He told his brothers and sisters that the death certificate of the old father was ready.

As for the surveillance, the eldest brother was also confused by the puzzled eyes of his younger brothers and sisters.

He said that the police told him that the city had moved all the surveillance away for some reason, and he couldn't watch it now or in the future.

…

The branch of the research institute built in the basement of Yuncheng.

A conference room was filled with middle and senior management of the branch.

At this time, they all watched a surveillance video played on the big screen.

In the video, a family set up a mourning tent downstairs in the community shrouded in darkness to hold a funeral.

However, at about 3 o'clock in the morning, when the people who were keeping vigil were sleepy.

A female paper figure that was originally leaning against the mourning tent suddenly changed her sad face.

She slowly curved her eyes, grinned, and laughed silently.

After that.

Everyone sitting in the conference room saw that the paper figure suddenly stood up by itself, and then walked straight out of the community in the dark.
