"Sure enough, there's something wrong with this hospital!" Whatever I could see, Su Xiaoniu could see too. Now she was certain of one thing, and she said to me, "This is the 'Ghost Gate Bagua Escape' arranged according to the principles of Yin and Yang and the Eight Trigrams. It's similar to the Eight Trigrams Formation. Zhao Xi's situation with the hospital is likely related to this formation. However, while a regular Eight Trigrams Formation only has eight gates, this Ghost Gate Bagua Escape has nine. In addition to the eight gates, there's also a 'Ghost Gate'."
"Bagua Formation? I know this. Enter through the life gate and exit through the death gate and so on. As long as you break through the eight gates, you can pass the level, right?" I said confidently.
Unexpectedly, Su Xiaoniu rejected it outright: "You are just tired of living if you keep going like this!"
I was stunned. Su Xiaoniu said earnestly, "The Ghost Gate Bagua Escape is fundamentally different from ordinary Bagua formations. The methods for breaking ordinary Bagua formations are indeed as you described, but this Ghost Gate Bagua Escape cannot be broken that way. Breaking through the Ghost Gate Bagua Escape is extremely complex, and you can't do it alone. It requires at least three people to break through the formation at the same time. You need to find two helpers first."
"Two helpers?" I thought for a moment and said, "How about Huo Liang and Yu Jie?"
Su Xiaoniu said calmly: "If you want them to die quickly, I don't care."
Khan, that's not what I meant! "Who should I look for then?"
"To find helper to break the Ghost Gate Bagua Escape, of course you have to find someone with experience. You should go find the golden-haired old man first. If the golden-haired old man is willing to help, the success rate of breaking the formation will increase by 50%!" When Su Xiaoniu mentioned this, I suddenly remembered that there is also a golden-haired old man!
But the question is, we just stole his Soul Guiding Lamp. Now we go back to ask him for help. Will he agree?
Su Xiaoniu giggled and said, "That's up to you. I don't care!"
I slapped my forehead in frustration. It was Su Xiaoniu who stole the Soul-Guiding Lamp, so now I must be the one getting scolded!
But in order to save Zhao Xi, I must break this formation. I will shamelessly go find King Xujin!
After packing up my things, I found the spirit-sucking ghost still inside the Soul-Guiding Lamp, sealed away by the seal talisman. I ignored it for the time being and left. Huo Liang was gone, and Zhao Xi had fallen asleep again. I left a note and quietly left the room.
It was around one in the afternoon, and the sun was shining brightly outside. However, standing outside the maternity hospital, under the all-encompassing gaze of my discerning eyes, I saw the true face of the entire building, and it gave me a startling look.
An entire abandoned hospital, covering thousands of square meters, with a blood bank, X-ray room, wards, operating room, autopsy room, laboratory, morgue... A 400-meter abandoned corridor, with groans and screams coming from the wards on both sides.
This is not a maternity hospital at all, it's a horrible haunted house!
I was so scared that I left without looking back and went to find the golden-haired guy first!
Su Xiaoniu said that I had been in seclusion for four or five days, and I just felt a little hungry, so I bought two loaves of bread at a roadside shop. In order to save money, I walked to the Sky Lantern Community, which was fortunately not far away.
King Xujin was taking a nap, while Xuanxuan's mirror image was drawing at the table. When I came in, the mirror image looked at me and asked with a smile, "Big brother, are you here to see Grandpa Jinmao?"
I nodded, and my mirror image looked back at King Xujin, who was lying on the bed in the room, frowned and said, "Grandpa Xujin is taking a nap, big brother, do you want to wait a while?"
I said okay and sat down aside.
Actually, this mirrored Xuanxuan is quite nice, but when I think about it being just a mirrored version, and the real Xuanxuan isn't here, I get a little apprehensive. The mirrored version is drawing something I can't quite make out. The drawings are sparse and dense, like the passages in a maze—very complicated. Yet, the mirrored version seems to be drawing with ease, meticulously numbering each passage.
A large scroll was filled with her paintings.
The more I looked at it, the more curious I became. Suddenly, Su Xiaoniu said in surprise, "Huh? Isn't this the 'Ghost Gate Entry Diagram'? How could she..."
Ghost Gate Entry Formation Diagram? What is that?
Su Xiaoniu said curiously, "It's the route map of the Ghost Gate Bagua Escape. Only a few people in the world can draw this map. I didn't expect that this mirror image could also draw such a profound and mysterious map! How strange!"
I frowned and asked, "With this formation map, can we break the Ghost Gate Bagua Escape?"
Su Xiaoniu said, "Not entirely. The formation map only provides a comprehensive analysis of the environment and routes within the Ghost Gate Bagua Escape, as well as the areas that require attention. Following the map, one can indeed pass the level safely, but the map is static, while the formation is dynamic. As long as the person who set up the formation makes a slight modification, the map will be basically useless. However, some of the information in the map can be used as a reference."
I nodded and asked the mirror image, "Is that the diagram you drew of the Ghost Gate Entry Formation?"
The mirror image looked up at me in surprise: "Big brother, how did you know?"
I chuckled and said, "Big brother knows a lot!"
The mirror image was overjoyed and pointed at the battle formation diagram and said, "Big brother, do you know what's missing from my diagram? I always feel like something is missing."
I was stunned. Damn, how would I know what is missing from this formation diagram? I can't understand it!
