Real Cthulhu Running Game

Chapter 375: The Box of Lost Souls

Back in the room, Shi Chuanling couldn't help but said: "Master, I didn't expect you to be so lucky to have the ability to communicate spiritually. Now you can communicate with Li Dian and the others better. It's a pity that I don't have such good luck as you, Master."

Liu Xing chuckled, and said, "The spiritual communication ability I have obtained should only be temporary. After all, Hu Li's ability should not be strong enough to give me permanent spiritual communication ability, but this is not bad. At least now I don't have to be affected by the language barrier for the time being."

After Liu Xing chatted with Shi Chuanling for a few words, he went to bed to rest.

But before going to bed, Liu Xing couldn't help checking his character card again, wanting to see how long this ability of spiritual communication would last.

As a result, the duration of Liu Xing's spiritual communication ability was not found, but he found a big problem, that is, there was no ancient Sirius' soul box in his belongings.

This is very strange, because Liu Xing read the memory of "Watanabe Meteor" and knew that "Watanabe Meteor" must have brought the ancient Sirius's box of soul to China, and when he got in the car and left Rongcheng, "Watanabe Meteor" deliberately noticed that he was carrying the ancient Sirius' soul box. After all, this time "Watanabe Meteor" came to China to help the ancient Sirius find another ancient.

Could it be that he left the box of the soul of Sirius the Ancient on the bus?

Liu Xing shook his head. This should be impossible. After all, according to the contents of the USB flash drive that Yin En gave him, the player’s belongings are not completely carried with him, but refer to the props that the player can get and use at any time under normal circumstances in this module.

Therefore, the player's personal items are all locked by default. As long as the player does not discard them intentionally, the player's personal items will not be lost without the player's knowledge. No matter what, some judgments will be made to remind the player.

Therefore, Liu Xing can be sure that the box of soul of the ancient Sirius should not be lost, but because of other reasons he could not bring himself into this module.

Because there are some modules that restrict the use of certain props, like the sacrificial knife in Liu Xing's hand, it must not be easy to pass through Huaxia Customs, so this module cannot be carried from the beginning.

However, the box of souls of Sirius the Elder should not be included in this mod due to other reasons.

This made Liu Xing feel a little troublesome. It seems that the difficulty of the module this time is more difficult than he imagined, because in this real Cthulhu running game hall, the last thing players rely on is their belongings, especially for players who have left the ghoul area, their belongings are life-saving props. After all, the difficulty of the modules in the Cthulhu running game hall is generally higher than the real ones. A few belongings helped too.

Just like the box of soul of the ancient Sirius in Liu Xing's hand, it allows Liu Xing to talk to the ancient Sirius. Although Sirius' ability has been weakened to a large extent, Sirius is an ancient man after all, so he is well-informed, so Liu Xing can get a lot of help from Sirius.

For example, just like the current situation in Beaulieu Town, Sirius probably knew the reason, so kp Xuefeng excluded the ancient Sirius's box of soul from this module.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing suddenly had a flash of inspiration and thought of a certain possibility, but because there is no definite evidence to prove his guess, Liu Xing didn't think about it any more.

After all, Liu Xing still remembers that in the last module, he thought about a lot of messy things, but in the end it was determined that he was thinking wildly.

So this time, Liu Xing decided to find the exact evidence first, and then think about whether his guess is feasible, so as not to waste time thinking about some messy things.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing decided to go to bed first.

Nothing happened overnight.

The next morning, Liu Xing got up.

After all, as long as nothing unexpected happens, players can set the wake-up time.

Liu Xing habitually came to the window, observed the situation in Panlong Town, and wanted to roughly determine the time. After all, the approximate time can be determined from the clothes of the residents on the streets of Panlong Town.

At this time, many people were already active on the streets of Panlong Town, and many small trucks with three wheels came from the direction of the bridge, carrying various fruits or commodities.

It seems that today should be a good day for Panlong Town.

Every market day, that is, the agreement between villages and towns in the rural areas of Sichuan, the days when everyone goes to the market together, most of them are held every three days, and sometimes every two days, so that the residents of the town can buy various daily necessities.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing was eager to try. When he was a child, Liu Xing often went back to his hometown to visit his grandparents. At that time, whenever there was a good time, Liu Xing’s grandmother would take Liu Xing to the market and buy all kinds of delicious food for Liu Xing. Although Liu Xing now thinks that those delicious foods are not very good, Liu Xing will never forget that kind of warm feeling.

At this moment, Hu Cang went upstairs to greet Liu Xing and others for dinner.

But this time Hu Cang didn't go downstairs and leave directly, but walked in front of Liu Xing, and said a little embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, Mr. Meteor, I was a little impatient last night, and I spoke a little louder for a while. I hope Mr. Meteor, you don't care too much."

Seeing that Hu Cang apologized to him, Liu Xing naturally couldn't put on airs.

Therefore, Liu Xing quickly said with a smile: "No, no, Mr. Hu Cang, you are being serious. I should have apologized to you. Because I speak straight, I didn't take your privacy into consideration. I asked a rather sharp question, so I hope Mr. Hu Cang don't blame me."

Ever since, Liu Xing has reconciled with Hu Cang.

At this time, Zhang Jingxu came out and said, "Mr. Hu Cang, can you tell what time it is now, and did any important events happen at this time?"

Hu Cang shook his head, and said helplessly: "Now I'm not sure about the current time point, because our Panlong Town is held every three or six nines, so in this time-space-disordered Panlong Town, there will be a Fairy Day at almost every time point. Except for some Fairy Days when people come to see the doctor early in the morning, I can only confirm the other Fairy Days after a while."

Zhang Jingxu nodded, and said curiously: "In this case, is there any TV signal in Panlong Town now? If so, we can better confirm the time."

Hu Cang shook his head and said with a smile: "How is that possible? In Panlong Town, we have completely lost contact with the outside world. Neither the TV signal nor the telephone line can be used. What's more strange is that other than me, other residents of Panlong Town seem to have forgotten about this matter."

What Hu Cang said was also within Liu Xing's expectation.

At this time, Li Dian and Wan Zhongshan also came out of the room, but Liu Xing noticed that Shi Chuanling didn't make any sound now.

Could it be?

Liu Xing hurried back to the room, as expected, Shi Chuanling had disappeared, it seemed that Shi Chuanling had been teleported to Sybril again.

But this made Liu Xing heave a sigh of relief. Since Shi Chuanling could be transported to Syberrill, it means that today's Beaulieu Town is not a completely closed space, and Shi Chuanling can also go to Syberrill to find his cheap master Sailak and ask if there is an old ruler who can turn Beaulieu Town into the ghost it is now. By the way, I would like to ask if there is any way to crack it.

Therefore, Liu Xing is now very much looking forward to Shi Chuanling's safe return from Sybril and bringing back some useful information.

Leaving the room, Zhang Jingxu and others had already gone downstairs for dinner.

When going downstairs, Liu Xing thought of a question, how to explain the sudden disappearance of Shi Chuanling?

After all, in the previous module, when Miyako Wutong and Panda Pig knew that Shi Chuanling would travel through time and space, they lost some san values, so for the sake of the san values ​​of Wan Zhongshan and Li Dian, Liu Xing decided to change the statement.

When he came downstairs, Liu Xing pretended to be a little flustered and said: "The big thing is bad, Shi Chuanling seems to have disappeared suddenly!"

When everyone heard what Liu Xing said, they were naturally taken aback.

However, as an insider, Zhang Jingxu quickly reacted and guessed why Liu Xing would do this.

Therefore, Zhang Jingxu quickly cooperated with Liu Xing and said, "What, why did Shi Chuanling disappear? Did some monster capture him? Or is Shi Chuanling joking with us?"

Seeing Zhang Jingxu's cooperation, Liu Xing continued, "I am a very good classmate with Ishi Chuan Ling, so I know Ishi Chuan Ling very well. It is impossible for him to make such an inexplicable joke, and there is no suspicious trace in the room, so I think Ishi Chuan Ling may have disappeared out of thin air."

Liu Xing and Zhang Jingxu sang together, which made Wan Chongshan and Li Dian understand that the truth about Shi Chuanling's disappearance must be something else, and Liu Xing and Zhang Jingxu should have done this for the sake of their sanity, so they would not deliberately act this drama for them to see.

After all, since Li Dian and Wan Zhongshan can participate in this promotion module, it means that Li Dian and Wan Zhongshan have experienced a lot of battles, and they haven't seen the method of deducting the san value?

Therefore, both Li Dian and Wan Chongshan understood the kindness of Liu Xing and Zhang Jingxu, and hurriedly cooperated with Liu Xing.

Ever since, Hu Cang with a dazed face accepted that Shi Chuanling's sudden disappearance was due to the disorder of time and space in Panlong Town.

Let's put this matter aside for now.

At the dinner table, Liu Xing and the others knew that acting must be performed in full, so after casually guessing why Ishi Chuanling disappeared, they began to discuss the real thing, which is the content of today's action.

Liu Xing took a bite of the steamed stuffed bun and said, "After breakfast, I'll go to talk to Hu Li first. If I don't come back at noon, it means that I didn't get along with Hu Li and was killed by Hu Li. But since we can all be resurrected, then you don't want to avenge me. Of course, you have to be more careful about Hu Li's attack on you."

Zhang Jingxu nodded and said with a smile: "Of course. After all, even if we want to avenge you, classmate Meteor, we basically can't do it, because even if we have the ability to defeat Hu Li in a head-on confrontation, Hu Li's wisdom should not give us this opportunity, so we don't bother to waste time and energy to take the initiative. Therefore, here, we can only replace wine with soy milk. I wish you, Meteor student, success and come back alive."

Liu Xing nodded with a smile, and said, "Then thank you, Mr. Zhang Jingxu, for your blessing. I will definitely try to come back alive, but I don't know if Hu Li will give me this chance."

Wan Zhongshan on the side also smiled, and then said: "I hope Hu Li can be more reasonable this time, and don't kill Liu Xing if you disagree with me. Later, Wan Zhongshan and I plan to go to the market and take a stroll around Panlong Town. After all, we haven't visited Panlong Town once before, so Zhang Jingxu, are you interested in going with us?"

Zhang Jingxu thought for a while, then nodded and said, "No problem, then I will go around with you and see if there is any way to get some useful information, such as where you can find gasoline or something."

"Gasoline?" Hu Cang said with some doubts.

Zhang Jingxu knew that he had slipped his mouth, but it didn't matter, and he admitted openly: "That's right, we have already obtained the specific information about the pig-headed butcher from Zhong Rensan, and we know that the pig-headed butcher is very afraid of fire, and as we have said before, now we have to clean up all the demons and ghosts entrenched in Panlong Town before we can free Panlong Town from the chaos of time and space, so our first goal is the pig-headed butcher. Obviously, just find the butcher in the daylight and pour gasoline on it and it should burn him to death."

Hu Cang nodded, and said with a smile: "So that's how it is. It is indeed easy to burn the pig-headed butcher to death, but you have already seen the situation in Panlong Town. Now there are not many motorcycles in the entire Panlong Town, so basically no one in Panlong Town can store enough gasoline. However, I happen to know that one person has enough gasoline in his hand, and that person is Wang Ping'an."

Liu Xing raised his brows, he didn't expect that Wang Ping'an really had enough gasoline in his hand.

So, Liu Xing quickly asked: "Oh, Mr. Hu Cang, didn't you say that Wang Ping'an's family conditions are very average, how can he afford a motorcycle, and buy so much gasoline at home?"

Hu Cang pointed to his leg and said, "Actually, Wang An'an is a cripple. A few years ago, a man from the next town drove a motorcycle and broke his leg. So the man from the next town took the motorcycle with several barrels of gasoline and compensated Wang An'an. I always have a barrel of gasoline in my house, as long as you give me money, Wang Ping An will definitely sell it to you."

Zhang Jingxu nodded, and said, "That's very good. Later, I will go to Wang Anan with Wan Zhongshan and try to buy a barrel of gasoline back. But we don't know where Wang Anan lives?"

Hu Cang thought for a while, and then said with some embarrassment: "Uh, how should I put it, I don't know Wang An'an very well, so I just heard people say something about Wang An'an after the black Internet cafe arson case, so I know that Wang An'an lives near the Houqiao in Panlong Town. I don't know the exact location, but you can go to the street to inquire later. Someone should know the specific address of Wang An'an's home."

At this moment, Liu Xing suddenly remembered a question, and asked, "Mr. Hu Cang, I have a question to ask you. Zhang Jingxu and I both went to a place called Panlong Lake in yesterday's illusion, so is this Panlong Lake the Panlong Reservoir you mentioned before? But we walked around Panlong Town the day before yesterday, but we didn't see Panlong Lake."

Hearing Liu Xing asked about this, Hu Cang shook his head helplessly, and said, "How should I put it, Panlong Reservoir is indeed Panlong Lake. After all, reservoirs are generally built on lakes, so as to save costs, but as for why Panlong Lake disappeared, I am not very clear about it, because after I returned to Panlong Town, I found that Panlong Lake was erased out of thin air.

The reason why Panlong Lake suddenly "disappeared" is probably because of the old ruler, and it is possible that the clone of the old ruler is still in Panlong Lake, which is the unknown creature with spikes that Liu Xing and others saw in the illusion.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing seemed to have vaguely guessed the identity of this old ruler.

PS: There are so many clues, I believe you should be able to guess who this old ruler is, right?
