Chapter 171
As soon as Xue Chang released his control over Xiaodao, the man immediately ran away from the corridor like a frightened mouse.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you so much! You are such a kind person!"
Xiaodao looked at Yitu with gratitude, rubbed his sweaty hands, and was about to say something when Xue Chang beside him raised his glasses and urged impatiently:
"Hurry up, everyone's time is precious."
When Xue Chang looked at Yi Tu, a strange blue light still flashed across his glasses, but this control seemed to have no effect on that person.
A hint of surprise flashed in Xue Chang's eyes.
So Yitu stood there, waiting for Xiaodao's next words.
"What were you about to say?"
Xiaodao was stunned for a moment, then immediately said:
"I'd say you have to observe carefully before deciding which door to open."
"Once you touch the door handle, you can't let go."
Xiaodao is still a conscientious player. Yitu temporarily saved his life. Even if the information he got is useless, he still has to kindly remind him.
Yitu nodded and walked towards the corridor calmly.
Although the tips Xiaodao gave were not very useful, they were better than nothing.
Only after Yitu stood on the corridor could he feel Xiaodao's fear and terror not long ago.
There were four doors on each side of him. The first and second doors on the left were already open, while the gap of the third door was tightly blocked by solidified flesh and blood.
As for the remaining six identical doors, even if the player sticks his whole body to the door, he can't hear any movement in the room, and the gap under the door is so blank that it is frightening.
After confirming that he could not tell from the outside, Yitu began to try to mobilize the wind, attempting to enter the room through the crack in the door to determine whether there was an evil spirit.
However, as expected, the wind encountered an indescribable irresistible force outside the door and dissipated in an instant.
The gap in the door seems to be a big loophole, but the system does not allow players to take this shortcut.
Otherwise, many players with clever props can accurately judge whether there are evil spirits inside the door through the crack in the door.
This way, the game loses its true fun.
But even so, this door-opening game cannot be 100% blocked.
For example, the first-level card that Xu Heng once owned, Dances with Wolves.
Due to the nature of the Apostle Card, Xu Heng has the ability to sense all ghost-like NPCs within a certain range.
Even if the system deceives their hearing and vision, it cannot block the effectiveness of the Apostle Cards from the root.
From the very beginning, Yitu saw through the essence of the game. In order to verify his guess, he stood up and made a choice for Xiaodao.
The wind could not penetrate the crack in the door, but divine consciousness could penetrate the thin wooden door and sense the spiritual body in the room.
Even after the Divine Mind Card passes 50 levels, it will no longer be able to detect any NPC's memories or related information, but the basic control effect is still there.
And eighty or ninety percent of the evil spirits and ghosts imprisoned in these rooms are innocent people killed by Dorian Gray during his lifetime.
For some unknown reason, they were imprisoned in a separate room, and the portrait of Dorian Gray was deliberately taken away and hidden.
Yitu was not curious about the stories that had happened here. After releasing his spiritual thoughts, he could only sense extremely weak spiritual fluctuations through the seemingly light wooden board.
The fourth room on the left contains something, and only the first and third doors on the right are safe.
Yitu randomly chose one of the doors, seemingly casually.
Once the third door was safely open, he realized it was a storage room.
There was a wooden patterned wardrobe on each of the three walls, filled with all kinds of elegant clothes, smelling strongly of mold.
Yitu frowned and pushed the clothes together. He found five pieces of portrait fragments at the innermost part of the wardrobe, and the same was true for the other two wardrobes.
After he came out, he just calmly reported the number of fragments and did not give the fragments to Xue Chang.
Xue Chang certainly wanted it, but Yi Tu had no intention of giving it to him, so he could only question with a gloomy face:
"Are you lucky, or is there a way to tell the different rooms apart?"
"It should be the latter, right?"
As soon as he said this, everyone looked at Yi Tu with different eyes.
Yitu laughed, "If I tell you there's a way to tell the difference, do you really believe me?"
Xue Chang's expression suddenly darkened. He stared at him and stopped talking.
"Hey, brother, since you can tell the difference between the rooms, isn't that a good thing?" Someone stepped forward to mediate, "This way we won't have to die."
Then he said to Xue Chang:
"Brother, don't be so aggressive. If you try to force others to open the door again, don't blame us for being rude to you."
As long as there is one person taking the lead, all the others will seem to have found their backbone and will follow suit one after another.
"Yeah, yeah, are we all afraid of you?"
"If this little brother didn't have some connections, Xiaodao would have been indirectly killed by you!"
"Although this is the Spade Tower, there is no need for us to kill each other. We are all forced to do so by the game."
The kind-looking aunt was really good at talking. Seeing that Xue Chang's face was getting gloomier and gloomier under the accusations of everyone, she was afraid that he would lose his temper, so she quickly gave him a way out.
With a few words, she shifted all the blame onto the gambler's game. Then she turned around and advised Yi Tu, looking like a sincere and earnest person:
"Isn't it a good thing that this child can tell the difference between rooms?"
"We won't take advantage of you for nothing. In return, I'm willing to give you a certain fee. What do you think?"
The so-called certain fee is nothing more than the common tower climbing reward value in the tower climbing activity.
Yitu didn't say anything, and someone else immediately spoke up dissatisfiedly:
"Just because you're willing to give doesn't mean we're all willing to give."
"Even though it seems like we're taking advantage of him, don't forget, he's also the one who has to get through this!"
Yi Tu still felt chilled when he heard this suddenly.
Even if everyone knows this, it is too vicious to say it so recklessly.
The person who said this was a clean-looking boy who seemed to be still in college.
He took advantage of the fact that Yi Tu could distinguish the rooms, but had to find all the fragments within a limited time in order to pass the level, and played rogue.
The aunt knew it, but she still had some conscience and didn't say anything too harsh.
This college student not only did not hide his selfish nature, but instead showed a smug look on his face.
With him taking the lead, most of the players actually acquiesced. No one mentioned paying the fees anymore, and even the aunt looked embarrassed.
Seeing this, Xue Chang smiled.
"What? I thought you were so noble, but it turns out you're all birds of a feather."
"Noble? The noble ones would have stank in the ground long ago!" someone retorted indignantly.
Xue Chang didn't say anything else, but just found a chair and sat down, looking at Yi Tu with a smile:
"Oh, we are so lucky to have this brother here."
He said this quite sarcastically, completely trying to get revenge on Yitu to give him a hard time.
However, He Rui, who had a brief conversation with Yi Tu, spoke up for him and said:
"Don't go too far, will you? Aren't you afraid that they will fight to the death with you?"
As soon as he said this, someone burst into laughter, patted He Rui on the shoulder and said earnestly:
"Hey! You're just young, young man. You're overthinking it. He won't drag us to death."
He Rui smiled honestly, narrowed his eyes slightly and said:
"Who knows?"
"Hanshan, will you help us find the puzzle?"
Yitu glanced at the crowd. A few of them had ugly faces, but most of them were just watching silently.
As long as their interests are not harmed, they can still accept it even if it involves murder and arson.
In the past, Yitu would have felt sad about this, but now he has gradually become numb.
Wasn't he one of those bystanders? Even though he had saved many people, he didn't want to trample on the last bit of human moral bottom line.
However, the environment was such that his struggle was like an ant trying to shake a tree, so foolish and presumptuous.
But Yitu didn't think he had done anything wrong. What he wanted was a clear conscience and to be open and honest.
But there are always people who regard this kindness as a fatal weakness, taking advantage of it and trampling on it repeatedly.
Yitu smiled faintly, "My props can only be used five times. After the fifth door, I won't open any more."
As soon as he said this, everyone's expression changed.
The university student immediately shouted, "Are you kidding me? How is it possible that only five doors can be opened?!"
Yitu looked at him coldly, "Believe it or not, since you are willing to put your life on someone you don't know the slightest bit about, don't regret the choice you made."
"Fuck! Why is this happening? Why can you only open five doors? Are you kidding us?"
Someone angrily wanted to come up and attack, but before he got close, Yitu raised his hand slightly and the man was knocked away, falling against the side wall with a scream.
Yitu still had a smile on his face, but the moment he stretched out his hand, everyone's expression changed slightly and they took half a step back.
However, he had no intention of actually doing anything. He just held up four slender fingers and said in a pleasant voice:
"Four more doors left, and three and a half hours left."
After he finished speaking, he ignored the people with different expressions behind him and walked towards the corridor on the left.
Xiaodao had originally opened two doors in the corridor on the left side of the first floor, and a player was sacrificed to open the third door, leaving only five doors.
According to that person, the props can only be used five times. He only meant to help them eliminate the remaining rooms on the left corridor of the first floor, and the remaining forty rooms must be explored by other people.
For a moment, everyone's faces became extremely ugly, but Xue Chang cheered up a little.
"Ah, it looks like it's my turn again?"
Before the others could react, Xiaodao was the first one to run away. He didn't want to be controlled by Xue Chang anymore.
Rather than letting others control you, it is better to choose death yourself.
Xiaodao went upstairs, and after the others realized what was happening, they also gradually dispersed. After all, time waits for no one.
