Chapter 105: End tonight
Ji Li held the portrait in one hand and fled.
He saw the tragic death of the middle-aged man and the ghost!
It's really useless!
The middle-aged man should die or die with the portrait, which shows that Ji Li's previous giving up was valuable.
The moment when the loophole flashed in his mind really made him hesitate.
But then, he thought that if a middle-aged man wanted to sacrifice, he would definitely use portraits.
Then it would be better to observe for a moment. Sure enough, the middle-aged man still died even with the portrait.
Ji Li once again realized that the hotel was invisible.
However, the complexity of the situation immediately surprised him. At first he knew what was wrong, but when he saw the ghost, he became confused again.
He had already guessed why the middle-aged man had sacrificed four men and one woman, but he still had not completed the sacrifice.
That's because they have always calculated the number wrongly.
It was originally planned to sacrifice the number of ten men and eight women, that is, the funeral was eighteen times.
In the past half a month, they have been in funeral thirteen times. In the impression of Chen Fu and the middle-aged man, they are only the last four men and one woman.
But there was another mistake in these thirteen sacrifices.
There should be a sacrifice situation, and there was an error, which caused the person's soul to be not absorbed by the portrait.
This is also the reason why Ji Li only saw twelve black shadows in the portrait.
The middle-aged man said less than one of the things he said before his death, which is precisely for this reason.
Originally, they should have known it roughly, but due to their lack of understanding of the characteristics of the ghosts and their little understanding of the mystery of the portrait itself, they were lucky enough to think that the number was right.
Perhaps, it is precisely because of this reason that the ghost has not attacked the middle-aged man for a long time.
Now, the middle-aged man died, Ji Li took over the situation and he would complete the last sacrifice.
So far, he finally thought of the way to survive this mission.
The way to life is to complete the sacrifice!
Use the ghost bride to suppress another murderous ghost. The ghost they have to face in this mission.
Of course, such speculation is extremely risky, but there are several experiences that can be regarded as a life path prompt.
First of all, he was approached by the ghost bride, but he was unscathed.
It was obviously a ghost and had already shown his covetous intention, but he never took action.
In the portrait space, although Ji Li broke his arm, he could clearly feel the conflict between the ghost bride.
If it wants to kill Ji Li, there is no need to leave a door of escape; it is obvious that it does have the intention to take action against Ji Li, and it also takes action, but it stops at the end.
This is a reminder: The ghost bride will not kill the clerk.
Then, there is a situation where an arm is broken. On the surface, this is the attack of the ghost on Ji Li, but it can also be regarded as a hidden prompt.
The purpose is to tell Ji Li that those black shadows that were sacrificed are also ghosts and will also attack the clerks!
And this prompt confirms that the information "one missing" is in the past.
This is in contrast to the truth of the matter.
Ji Li ran all the way with the portrait, and he could roughly guess the full picture of this mission.
Half a month ago, Chen Fu and the middle-aged man got a strange portrait, accompanied by a broken book.
From this, we have obtained the method of rejuvenation and poisoning, and also the method of sacrifice.
They wanted to achieve their respective goals through supernatural powers, so they began a sacrifice ceremony in the Li Mansion.
For half a month, they concealed their concealment by the funeral and murdered thirteen maids and servants one after another.
It has been very smooth all the time, but once, a sacrificer made an error.
Ji Li couldn't guess what happened, but it was clear that the sacrificed soul escaped from the portrait after becoming a black ghost!
In addition, he made strong interference in the funeral of Li's mansion.
This has led to a slow progress recently, and Chen Fu and others have to sacrifice the last five people together today.
When Ji Li thought of this, he could roughly guess that the reason why the black shadow ghost escaped was because of the help of the hotel.
The hotel is helping it escape and creating tasks for the clerks to capture it.
This way of handling made Ji Li think of the guess he had drawn at Tiannan Academy again.
In hotels, they have two attitudes towards ghosts.
First, strong capture, and second, transactions are launched.
Judging from the current situation, this task obviously belongs to the latter, and the difficulty of this task is by no means comparable to the former.
This shows that there is an extremely powerful ghost in this mission that is enough to make transactions with the hotel.
Thinking of this, Ji Li looked at the portrait in her hand, the quiet, beautiful and treacherous bride.
It is obvious that it is the most powerful ghost, but due to hotel transactions or rules, it has become a way out.
Ji Li ran all the way, turning his head from time to time to see if the ghost behind him was chasing him. His little finger in his left hand still did not move.
This shows that there are no ghosts nearby.
But Ji Li still did not slacken. He urgently needed to return to Li's mansion within a limited time to complete his last sacrifice.
This is the way to live.
The sacrifice of the ghost bride is completed, and the last one missing should be a woman.
As long as Ji Li finds a woman and sacrifices her to the portrait, she can revive the ghost bride and suppress the murderous ghost.
This is considered to have completed this promotion task.
However, what surprised Ji Li was why the appearance of that murderous ghost was exactly the same as that of the ghost bride...
He couldn't figure out this point.
And in a hurry, he suddenly heard a third personality say something in his mind.
"Huh? Why do you think the old woman is so dispensable in this mission?"
The speaker is unintentional, and the listener is intentional.
Ji Li immediately realized that she must have missed something.
Indeed, although the entire picture of the task was restored and the life path was revealed, the old woman's line could not be found.
She looks exactly the same as the ghost bride.
He is also an important person in the Li family, and it can be said that Chen Fu is her subordinate...
"Subordinate!"
The moment this special word came to my mind, Ji Li was shocked, as if a thought was integrated based on this point.
There is an old woman behind Chen Fu's actions.
What role does she play in this mission?
He couldn't help but recall the moment he had just rushed out of the portrait space.
At that time, the movement was so great that Ji Li did not hide it, so why did the old woman sleep so heavily and not wake up at all?
Thinking of this, Ji Li turned his head suddenly.
The back was empty, but a gust of wind blew his gaze for a moment.
The ghost seemed to be blown away with the gust of wind.
An even more incredible idea came into being in Ji Li's mind.
"If this is the case, then life does not seem to require me to kill and sacrifice..."
Whether it was luck or coincidence, a tall horse that Chen Fu and others had abandoned before was not killed by Lingyu or escaped.
Just trampled quietly in the mud, as if waiting for something.
Ji Li's eyes showed a hint of joy, she took off her backpack, pulled out the rope, and tied the portrait to her back.
Then he jumped on his body, swung the reins of the horse, splashed the soil, and his long hair flew.
Chapter completed!
