Chapter 61 Flower Scroll (11)
"You talked to me about Xie Xin before." Gu Qiufeng suddenly said, "If you stayed in the dungeon the whole time, how would you know the news from the outside world?"
When Xie Songjin used a puppet to approach him in the first world, he used Xie Xin, who was familiar to Gu Qiufeng, to get close to him. This shows that he not only knew about the situation in the outside world, but also knew a lot about it.
At least Xie Songjin pays attention to his real life and interpersonal relationships.
But how did Xie Songjin know?
Not to mention that Gu Qiufeng himself is not famous, Xie Xin's career has only entered a rising period in the past two years, and he has gradually gained traffic and works, but Gu Qiufeng is very low-key, and even Xie Xin's big fans don't know much about his life.
How did Xie Xin pay attention to him?
Xie Xin's eyes flickered: "Coincidentally, someone told me after entering the dungeon."
"That person..." Gu Qiufeng paused and said, "It's okay, tell me when necessary."
There's no point in knowing so much.
Xie Songjin coughed lightly and changed the subject: "You have seen the Flower God, what does he look like?"
Gu Qiufeng said: "I've only seen his back, and I don't know what he looks like yet."
The candlelight flickered faintly in the room, tearing at the ever-changing shadows.
Xie Songjin said silently: "Are you sure he has human facial features?"
After saying this, Gu Qiufeng fell silent.
If you think about it carefully, the flower goddess is wearing strange and fluttering white clothes and has long hair, which does fit the rules of some horror movies.
Gu Qiufeng felt a little scared by what Xie Songjin said. He was not afraid of ghosts, but he could not help but retain the fear of certain unknown things, just like some people are afraid of the deep sea.
A gust of cool wind happened to squeeze in from the crack in the door, and the temperature in the room dropped instantly. Gu Qiufeng couldn't help but said, "Hey, don't say that. I was thinking that if she was good-looking..."
As he spoke, he turned around and found that Xie Songjin had disappeared at some point, and in his place was a figure half-squatting with his knees hugged and his head buried.
It was dressed in white, with black hair hanging down in front of it and falling to the ground. The candlelight flickered on one side, but did not cast any shadow.
Gu Qiufeng frowned and quickly distanced himself from this unknown thing.
He tried to summon Feng He through the card, but found that his skills could not be used.
This made Gu Qiufeng suddenly certain that he was not in the real world.
This might be the illusion of the other world set up for him by the flower god.
Gu Qiufeng glanced around and found that all his props and skills were now ineffective. If there really were ghosts now, then his situation would be very bad.
With his eyes fixed on the white figure with its head lowered, Gu Qiufeng silently slowed down his movements, slowly walked around it and towards the door. After carefully opening the door, he quickly rushed out.
He turned around and saw neither Xie Songjin nor the Flower Goddess.
The entire courtyard was filled with a dead silence.
Gu Qiufeng went to see Duan Chouyu’s room first.
He pushed the door open a crack and saw a figure floating in the air, as if a person was hanging on the beam, with cloth shoes dangling in the air. It was impossible for him to be Duan Chouyu.
Gu Qiufeng closed the door quickly and neatly and started walking out of the yard.
The residence of Princess Anyang was no different from what he had seen during the day, except that it was too quiet. Not even the chirping of insects or birds could be heard.
Gu Qiufeng walked all the way to the lotus pond and saw that the painting that was supposed to be kept by Duan Chouyu was now spread out at his feet.
The painting still shows the man in white with a blob of red paint on his face.
Gu Qiufeng bent down and was about to pick it up when he suddenly felt a few wisps of cold air coming out of his neck. Almost like a conditioned reflex, Gu Qiufeng suddenly dodged to the side, but the thing behind him was faster than him and directly reached out and grabbed his neck.
Before Gu Qiufeng even had time to look back, the other party grabbed his neck and jumped into the pool together.
Gu Qiufeng cursed inwardly and immediately stopped struggling. Instead, he began to hold his breath to avoid being drowned by the water gun at the beginning.
The hand behind him was icy cold, but Gu Qiufeng could tell that it was a human hand.
The bottom of the pool was not as dangerous as Gu Qiufeng and Xie Songjin had explored today. It might also be because of the illusion. In any case, the thing behind him took him all the way to the coffin unimpeded.
Gu Qiufeng actually wanted to obey the other party and did not struggle, because he was too curious about what was in the coffin under the water. If Xie Songjin had not been staring at him, he might have gone into the water directly with the protective cover on.
Not sure if it was an illusion, but Gu Qiufeng suddenly heard something behind him chuckle. He frowned. It would be difficult for an ordinary person to breathe, so it seemed that the other party was not human.
But when he saw the coffin in full detail, Gu Qiufeng's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
There was nothing in the coffin.
What about the things that were supposed to be in the coffin? Where did they go?
Gu Qiufeng suddenly felt something was wrong.
He didn't even have time to struggle before he heard something behind him say faintly, "Don't move, it will be fine soon."
The voice was very pleasant to hear, with a hint of compassion and allure, as if it could control people's hearts.
Gu Qiufeng guessed that maybe he could indeed control people's minds, but for some reason he became immune to all the mental attacks in this copy.
So Gu Qiufeng turned around with difficulty and punched the opponent with his backhand, hitting the guy's head at an abnormal angle.
He took advantage of this moment to struggle out of the other person's hands and began to float to the surface of the water. This should be near the pavilion. As long as he floated to the surface and took the opportunity to climb onto the pavilion, he would be safe. But at this moment, Gu Qiufeng's eyes suddenly went dark.
He finally understood why the picture kept going dark when he was observing with Xie Songjin. It was not because something attacked the camera, but because there was something wrong with the water in the pool itself.
The water surface in front of him suddenly changed, and a huge human face covering the entire surface of the pool appeared on the water. The eyes were completely occupied by black pupils, and the fang-filled, bright red mouth opened towards Gu Qiufeng who was still floating upwards.
His eyes were dark and dark, and Gu Qiufeng decisively stopped swimming. Silently, under the pressure of the huge human face, he allowed himself to sink, and then his shoulders were pressed down by those hands.
"Don't worry, it will be fine soon."
The man's voice sounded eerily in the lotus pond, with a cruel smile.
He gently put Gu Qiufeng into the coffin. The bandages on Gu Qiufeng's hands had all fallen off, revealing his scarred hands which grasped the guy's retreating hand. Gu Qiufeng then noticed that the other person's hands were very beautiful, with distinct joints, like white jade. When their hands were entangled with his, he didn't know who looked more like a ghost.
Gu Qiufeng looked up and saw the other person dressed in white, with long black hair hanging down to the ground. He was looking down at him with a hint of compassion between his brows.
It looks good.
But Gu Qiufeng no longer cared about what the flower god looked like. He widened his eyes and tried hard to grab the culprit's hand, trying to use the force to sit up from the coffin.
He didn't understand why the flower god wanted him to lie in the coffin, but he was not stupid. The coffin was strange and if he really lay in it, he didn't know if he would ever be able to get out.
Another fatal thing at the moment is that he is almost suffocating.
Holding its breath for such a long time underwater was already an extraordinary performance for Gu Qiufeng. At this moment, he couldn't even open his mouth to ask the Flower God what she wanted to do.
Gu Qiufeng could only hold on to that hand tightly, making the Flower God unable to move. The two of them looked at each other, as if they were engaged in a long tug-of-war.
After a long time, the Flower God finally moved. He looked at Gu Qiufeng steadily and said, "It's okay. It will be fine soon."
Gu Qiufeng: “…………”
He doesn't believe it!
Is this a repeater? Why is it only repeating one sentence?
Just as he was struggling to get out of the coffin, the face of the Flower God in front of him suddenly changed. Gu Qiufeng saw countless red silk threads coming from nowhere, trying to attack the Flower God.
The scene at the bottom of the pool in front of him shattered bit by bit. When Gu Qiufeng came back to his senses, he had returned to his room, with Xie Songjin shaking his shoulders.
"Are you okay?" Xie Songjin asked anxiously. The red thread in his hand had not even been retracted and was spread all over the floor.
Gu Qiufeng blinked and asked subconsciously: "Are you the real Xie Songjin?"
Xie Songjin: "...could it be a fake me?"
Gu Qiufeng recalled the last scene he saw and realized that Xie Songjin must have discovered something unusual and used puppet threads to invade his spiritual world to help him escape from the clutches of the Flower God.
Gu Qiufeng calmed himself down and looked at his hand. The bandage had disappeared, revealing the shocking scar inside.
"Senior." Yu Chi'ang, who had been silent, spoke.
Gu Qiufeng was indeed frightened just now, and only at this time did he notice that Xiaoyu was also here.
Seeing him like this, Xie Songjin took the initiative to explain: "Mr. Yu found something, so he rushed over, otherwise I wouldn't have noticed you were missing."
Gu Qiufeng said: "I must have been dragged into the other world created by the flower god just now. In that world, he dragged me to the bottom of the lotus pond."
Xie Songjin couldn't help but ask, "Did you see the coffin?"
"It's empty." Gu Qiufeng looked gloomy, "The flower god wants to stuff me into the coffin."
Yu Chiang's expression changed slightly: "Senior, are you lying in the coffin?"
"He failed, and Xiao Jiang rescued me." Gu Qiufeng said.
Yu Chi'ang said: "I found a painting related to the flower god."
As he spoke, he took out the painting hidden in his sleeve and said, "This is a ceremony about how to worship the flower god and make him come. You need to put a good-looking person into the coffin, put the flower scroll fragments in it, sink it to the bottom of the pond, and then hold a flower-viewing banquet, burn incense and pray for blessings, and then the flower god will have a chance to come."
"Senior, you have been chosen by the Flower God."
Yu Chi'ang unfolded the painting in front of everyone, and inside a coffin lay a person with his eyes closed.
The painting was very lifelike, and with only a few strokes, everyone present recognized that the person lying in the coffin as a sacrifice was Gu Qiufeng.
For a moment, there was silence.
Gu Qiufeng's expression turned extremely ugly: "So if I lie in that coffin, I will really become a sacrifice for the coming of the Flower God."
Just at this moment, there was a sudden knock on their door.
Princess Anyang's voice sounded faintly outside the room: "Is Doctor Gu here?"
