Chapter 153 Safe House
The blood mist filled the air, engulfing the entire room in an instant, and the young man's crying voice rang out.
"Teacher, don't you want me anymore?"
The smell of blood filled Xu Zhiyan's nostrils. He stood there in a daze. The strong and powerful arm around his waist easily grabbed him into the arms of the creature behind him.
He suddenly felt that his luck might indeed have been taken away.
In the Mermaid Cruise copy, luck was supposed to be the dominant slice, but the opponent, as a creature without substance, was suppressed by the invading slice blood from another space and trapped in the body.
And this blood seems to be able to divide itself infinitely?
The pearls Xavier gave were made of the same material as the pearl jewelry he got from the second-hand store owner when he first entered the copy. Before he could tell the ghosts and gods, they attracted the remaining blood.
I felt my skin pressed against a strong chest, with a layer of sticky blood between us.
It feels a bit uncomfortable, Xu Zhiyan thought.
He did not move and let the guy behind him hold him. Perhaps he knew that this was a safe house and Party A's territory. Xu Zhiyan's curiosity overwhelmed his fear of the unknown.
What kind of slice would run wild under the noses of ghosts and gods?
The brief silence caused dissatisfaction among the creatures behind him.
"Teacher, why don't you speak?"
It was still the boy's voice that didn't match his body language.
"Who are you?" Xu Zhiyan asked knowingly.
The guy behind him paused for a moment, lowered his head and gently bit the back of the mermaid's neck, and replied in a low voice: "It's me, teacher, don't you remember me?"
The stimulation from the back of his neck made Xu Zhiyan shudder, and his scales seemed to explode.
But he was very clear about the current situation, and did not believe the other party's words just by listening to the voice. He replied with a sneer.
"The young master's personality has long been taken away by Mr. Ghost."
Poseidon has no entity, and the sacrificial bead that Xavier presented represents the flesh/body, which means that the young master's personality is contained in the bead that was recovered by the ghost.
If the remaining pearls are also part of the blood, then the other party might have been affected by luck and was half unlucky. He put the entire copy in his backpack and didn't take it out until he entered the safe house and the monsters counted the gains, then he was able to show up.
As soon as he finished speaking, the creature formed by blood collapsed for a moment, and countless blood beads exploded outwards, and then re-condensed.
"We are one and the same, how can you tell that I am not him?" Holding Xu Zhiyan's blood hostage, he no longer pretended to be a young master and asked in confusion.
"He didn't explain everything to you clearly." This is also the reason why the remaining blood pretended to be a young master after getting close to Xu Zhiyan.
Xu Zhiyan pushed the other person's arm but failed to push him away, so he just pretended to be upset and started to explain.
"Master Bai wouldn't call me that."
That little ATM guy who speaks in a hostile way but acts honestly and is very easy to fool always calls him an inferior. He is very innocent, so how could he just come up and hug him?
"And you hugged me too tight, I couldn't breathe." He frowned and acted as if nothing had happened.
As soon as he finished speaking, the hand holding Xu Zhiyan loosened a little.
The remaining blood slice did not expect that the other party would still talk to it so calmly after recognizing it. This rebuke fell into the ears of the blood, like a coquettish complaint, which made it feel itchy.
Looking down at the mermaid's white and slender neck, it suddenly understood why its original body liked the human in front of it.
So interesting!
With his handsome appearance and interesting soul, it seems normal that both the original body and the slice fall in love with him.
But is Xu Zhiyan really as calm as he appears?
No, he was already panicking.
Thoughts raced, Xu Zhiyan tried to find some clues from the traces of his recent conversation with the ghosts.
He didn't think that with so much blood entering the safe house, the other party would not know...
That’s right, the ghosts and gods must know.
After the sacrifice, the bead was hidden in his heart. His client was not in a hurry at all. He did not take out the bead at the first time, nor did he inform him of anything in advance. He even let him take the bead to the shell. It was not until he raised the question that the client took out the thing.
I don’t know if it’s because we understand each other.
Xu Zhiyan immediately understood the other party's intention.
Blood can be divided infinitely.
When invading the mermaid cruise ship copy, it is not all the blood that suppresses luck, but only a small part of it.
Since the other party followed, perhaps it was due to a small part of coincidence, but if ghosts and gods took action, blood is not a fool and will definitely give up this part of the power directly.
But what if we create a false impression that the other party can escape...
For some reason, although he had not informed Party A, Xu Zhiyan had an inexplicable feeling that the ghosts and gods probably thought the same.
He told himself to calm down.
Only a clear mind can maximize benefits.
While thinking, Xu Zhiyan felt a little itchy.
The red color that filled his eyes lessened a little, allowing him to see the current situation more clearly.
It was then that Xu Zhiyan discovered that after the blood mist spread, he seemed to be dragged into another space.
There was blood everywhere. He was sitting in a pool of blood. The soft bed beneath him had turned into a sticky surface of flesh at some point, and the blood covered his tail half a palm high.
Countless drops of blood fell on his body and tail, and some even drilled under his scales.
"Aren't you afraid?" The sound of blood came from behind my ear.
After being exposed, the blood no longer carried the young master's slightly childish tone, but instead turned into a strange complex voice, as if countless people were speaking at the same time.
Xu Zhiyan's whole body trembled and he couldn't help shaking, but this time it was not because of his emotions.
Beads of blood seeped into the gaps between the golden scales of the fish's tail, scratching the tender flesh under the scales. The mermaid's sensitive body could not withstand such stimulating contact.
"Can you control this blood..."
When Xu Zhiyan spoke, his voice was faint. His body, which had no strength to begin with, lost its strength and his ear fins collapsed.
Damn it, he must recover his human form as soon as the hot spring opens!
There was a chuckle from the blood.
"I thought you would be so calm no matter what happened... Did the mermaid's mutation make you sensitive, or are you just like this?"
It seemed to be having fun.
More blood rushed under the scales.
"I thought I would be caught, but I didn't expect Him to be so useless. It would only be a matter of time before I replaced Him."
The human in the arms of the Blood Seducer.
"Do you want to come with me? The defense here is not tight."
Xu Zhiyan collapsed in the arms of Blood, slapped his tail weakly twice, and cursed Party A twenty times in his heart.
"It's inconvenient to carry me... Could you please stop, stop moving the blood!" He gasped, his chest heaving up and down, his slender fingertips resting on the man's arm, protesting coldly.
However, these protests not only posed no threat to Blood, but also further deepened its interest in the human in its arms.
"Why don't you want to leave? Don't you like me very much?"
It lowered its head and took a bite of the mermaid's drooping ear fin, and gently licked the translucent membrane on the ear fin.
"You are much nicer to me than to Blood Vessels. You taught me how to paint and gave me gifts." Blood tried to recount some of the interactions with Master Bai in order to impress the human.
"'I' am different to you, too."
"Fuck, are you a pervert?"
Xu Zhiyan was furious after hearing this.
"What exactly are the similarities between you and Xiaobai?" He sneered, his tone full of sarcasm.
"He was the one who gave me the money on the boat, and he was the one who protected me on the boat. He has now been merged into Mr. Ghost God. What does he have to do with you?"
Listening to Xu Zhiyan's clear speech, the remaining blood choked.
"He is blood, he is part of me."
It tried to argue, but it was useless, Xu Zhiyan was not fooled at all.
The mermaid turned sideways, her golden tail soaked in blood, making some water sounds when flapping her tail. Although her voice was not loud, her rejection was obvious.
"But he is in the ghost place now. I am not a fool. You are a stranger to me."
In response, a large area of red once again filled his vision. The air was so low and depressing that Xu Zhiyan felt it was difficult to breathe.
His heart skipped a beat and he couldn't help but frowning.
Oh no, it’s just a few words, this guy can’t be so fragile!
Then, Xu Zhiyan felt the man's hand touching his heart, and the blood began to flow again.
"You're weird."
"I can feel your heart beating fast."
Although Xu Zhiyan was in an absolutely disadvantageous situation, he was able to display a calmness that was inconsistent with the situation.
"Since you know that the personality blood bead was taken away by the main body, then you should understand that there is no intersection between us at present. It is not a good choice to anger me."
They have never gotten along with each other, and their preferences are all influenced by other slices and the main body.
"I can strangle you, squeeze all the blood out of your body, and then take you away." There was a hint of subtle confusion in Blood's voice.
Why was it that from the very beginning, when it was clearly in an absolute advantage, the mermaid in its arms was able to take the lead in language?
Xu Zhiyan listened, turned his head to take a look at the blood slice which seemed to have reacted a little, and kept calculating in his mind.
He changed his words and tried to coax her, "Because you and Xiaobai are one and the same."
"Xiao Bai won't kill me, so I believe you won't kill me either."
What the hell is this, whether to kill or not.
He just wanted to know when Party A would be able to finish the job. Fortunately, the blood seemed to be incomplete due to the segmentation problem, otherwise, if he was smarter, he would have been killed and threatened the ghosts and gods.
“…”
Blood thought for a moment and nodded.
"So if I take back the personality blood bead, will you be willing to go with me?" It couldn't help but be affected by other parts, and subconsciously felt that it would not hurt the mermaid in its arms.
Xu Zhiyan let out a long sigh.
"Of course, if you really can..."
Impossible, he didn't think Party A would give up the blood they had obtained.
The blood was shaken.
But only for a moment.
It rubbed Xu Zhiyan's cheek, and its hands kept tightening, trying to completely embed the mermaid in its arms.
“It’s impossible to succeed.”
"You are hurting me, you are deceiving me."
A slice that can hack into a safe house and find a way out, even if it's just a part of it, is not easy to fool.
"I will take your place, but not now." Blood's voice was a little cold, and he hugged the mermaid tighter. He said angrily: "Although I can't avoid falling in love with you, you need to pay a little price for your arrogance..."
Xu Zhiyan's movements were completely restricted. He felt countless blood condensed into hands, stroking his scales.
The blood's words chilled him to the bone.
"If all these scales are plucked out and only the tender flesh is left, will you cry?" The bloody hand plucked open a fish scale and put his fingertips into the gap between the scales.
Feeling the trembling merman in its arms, it chuckled.
"When the time comes, you will be soaked in blood, and the blood will soak into your body bit by bit. Then you will have no choice but to cry and beg me to spare you..."
Perhaps because the words were too explicit, the entire space began to tremble.
The moment Xu Zhiyan sensed that the man holding him froze, he felt relieved.
The reassuring smell of ashes dissipated the bloody odor.
The ghosts and gods are coming.
Before he could react, Xu Zhiyan felt a flash before his eyes, and when he came to his senses again, he had been sucked into the arms of the ghost by a thick snake's tail.
After looking at Party A, Xu Zhiyan had a lot to say, but now was obviously not the time.
The overwhelming pressure completely broke this small space temporarily built up by blood. Countless drops of blood flowed out and the bedroom was soaked in blood.
Xu Zhiyan, who had just been passively dealing with blood, suddenly lost his composure and his pupils trembled when he saw the bedroom soaked in blood.
His cell phone! His computer! His game console!
What was even worse than the bedroom was the blood slices from the actions that had just been taken against Xu Zhiyan.
It had almost completely lost the ability to form a human form and could only turn into a pool of blood, helplessly locked in the air by iron chains.
The natural pressure of the main body on the slice leaves it with nowhere to escape.
The ghost didn't want to bother with the half-finished slices. He stretched out his hand and a wound appeared on his fingertips.
The blood that was so arrogant just now turned into a trickle, slowly flowing towards the wound, and he couldn't even say a word.
After Xu Zhiyan watched the small pool of blood completely return to the ghost's body, he asked in confusion, "That's it? I've been arguing with him for so long, did I get anything extra?"
Although his current bedroom is not luxurious, the electronic products inside were soaked in blood and he didn't know if they could be used.
If he can't get any effective compensation, he will suffer a great loss!
The ghost's eyes swept over Xu Zhiyan's fish tail that was still stained with blood, and he tried his best to suppress the side effects of recycling blood.
Unlike relatively mild luck.
His blood is filled with violent power and thoughts.
After combining with one's own love imagination, all those fantasies belonging to the blood fell on the ghosts themselves.
"Are you okay?" Xu Zhiyan was shocked when he saw the ghost staring at his tail without saying a word, and asked quickly.
"There's something wrong with the blood? Tsk, could it be a virus?" Xu Zhiyan, who had no idea why Party A had become like this, waved his slender arms and gestured, expressing his guess.
"Could it be that the blood was intentionally given a virus so that it could infect you after it was recycled?"
The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed, and he couldn't help but get nervous.
After listening to this, the ghost tightened his arms around the mermaid's back, feeling the warm body temperature from her, and tried hard to suppress his strange thoughts.
"No, blood is inherently violent."
He explained in a gentle voice, afraid to scare Xu Zhiyan.
"...Hey, hey, it's even more terrifying when you put it this way, okay?" Xu Zhiyan's mouth twitched, but he was relieved to see that Party A was fine.
Wagging his tail, he asked about the harvest.
"You must have known the blood was here, so why did you wait so long to show up?"
He did not pursue the matter of Guishen not informing him of the blood slice in advance. As a businessman, Xu Zhiyan knew very well that opportunities sometimes only last for a moment. If missed or told about, it might arouse the other party's vigilance.
If his client is really a fool and lets Slice enter the safe house at will, then there is no point in his game and he might as well die as soon as possible.
As this was mentioned, a round bead slowly emerged from the blood in the room and flew in front of Xu Zhiyan.
It is the pearl that represents sacrifice in the mermaid ceremony.
The ghosts and gods revealed the hidden contents.
"I need blood to find the coordinates myself."
It turned out that as soon as Xu Zhiyan returned to the safe house, the ghosts and gods had already realized that the blood that came back with him was not just the young master's personality.
However, due to the infinite ability of blood to divide, if it cannot be resolved in one go, the opponent will definitely continue to make various interferences.
"The bait is made from split blood."
"It sneaked into other copies, disturbed the slices in the copies, and collected enough information."
Since we are collecting information, we must return to the copy where the blood body is located. This is the opportunity that the ghosts and gods are looking for.
"It found a crack in the safe house."
By the way, I also helped the system detect the weak points of the safe house.
As soon as he finished speaking, the blood in the room seemed to boil and bubble up, and a whirlpool appeared in the center of the blood.
This is a passage with only a tiny gap.
Apart from blood, no other physical creature can pass through.
Xu Zhiyan exclaimed in amazement: "Amazing, it's actually a limited edition channel, quite interesting."
Seeing the ghost's next move, he was a little confused.
The round bead that was floating in the air and belonged to the bait turned into liquid blood again and squeezed into the passage like a puff of smoke.
"What are you doing?" Xu Zhiyan was very shocked.
Party A recovered a portion of the blood, but let go of the young master's personality, allowing the other party to return to the blood body.
The blood that filled the room faded away.
[Ding Ding - Coordinates collected!] The safe house system found the coordinates of the blood copy through the returning Bai Shaoye personality.
The ghost stood in a mess of blood, his voice low and hoarse, as if he was trying hard to suppress something.
"Blood is violent and unpredictable."
Even though he had obtained the coordinates of the blood in advance, he didn't really want Xu Zhiyan to face that guy defenselessly.
That bait was born for Xu Zhiyan and loves his lover desperately.
Although it is a bit unpleasant, once the blood recovers this out-of-control bait, it will inevitably be affected by the bait.
"It will love you."
Like me.
At the end of the conversation, the voices of ghosts and gods were almost inaudible.
Xu Zhiyan was stunned at first, then he understood Party A's intention.
The blood slices left on the mermaid cruise ship were used to create the personality of Young Master Bai in order to search for information and lure him. Perhaps because they were afraid that he would notice, this personality is incomplete and the memory is disordered and incomplete.
If the blood body recycles Master Bai, then it will be affected...
Thinking of his innocent little ATM spirit, Xu Zhiyan felt mixed emotions.
Party A was indeed still thinking about him.
Assuming there is a cute ATM spirit like this in the copy where the blood is located, the difficulty of the entire copy will be reduced a lot. The most important thing is that it is innocent enough and will not do anything touching.
Xu Zhiyan shook his tail, thinking that he had a good vision and his partner was very reliable!
"Finally done." He breathed a sigh of relief, but when he saw the mess in the room, he felt a headache again.
"I have to ask Xiao Tianluo to find someone to clean up my room. Damn it, my computer is soaked and I don't know if it can be used. This is all money. This blood is really a waste..." After relaxing, Xu Zhiyan began to mutter to himself that he felt sorry for the money.
"By the way, carry me downstairs. I want to check if there is anything else unusual in the bag."
After his legs became fish tails and he could no longer walk, and the Yunshan old house was not suitable for going up and down the stairs in a wheelchair, he confidently instructed Party A to be the means of transportation.
The ghost looked down at the mermaid with blood stains on her body and frowned slightly.
"Are you going to open the hot spring this time?" He asked.
"It should be opened, but I'll figure out how to distribute the keys. Anyway, there's still some time before we enter the dungeon, so let's talk about it later." Xu Zhiyan replied.
He was a little sleepy at first, but after feeling the blood, he was no longer sleepy.
However, the ghost did not obediently carry him downstairs.
As his vision turned and he walked towards the bathroom, Xu Zhiyan was a little confused: "Why are you going to the bathroom? Do you want to take a shower?"
The glass door was pushed open, and the faucet next to the bathtub opened automatically without anyone touching it.
The ghost snapped his fingers with a dark face.
“Bang!”
The next second, steam rose from the bathtub and the icy water was instantly heated to a temperature suitable for human use.
When he was thrown into the water, Xu Zhiyan realized that there were blood stains on his body.
He didn't hesitate to take off his baggy, blood-stained shirt, exposing his thin chest between that of a young man and a teenager.
"You are still careful. If Qu Ji saw me covered in blood, he would probably be worried again."
The water of suitable temperature allowed the merman to twist around comfortably in the bathtub, but unfortunately the bathtub was too small and part of his tail was exposed.
Seeing that Party A was still there, Xu Zhiyan soaked himself in the water, then felt a little embarrassed.
But before he could say anything to drive it away, he saw the ghost with a cold face, reaching out to take the bottle of shower gel beside him and squeezing some on his palm.
Feeling the scales on the tail being peeled away, Party A's cold fingertips soaked in shower gel easily squeezed in and gently wiped the tender flesh that was in contact with the scales.
Xu Zhiyan just felt his head buzzing and he felt unwell all over!
“…Fuck…what the hell are you…doing!”
After the fish scales were peeled off, his whole body went limp. Now he could only hold on to the edge of the bathtub, with his fingers tensed, to prevent himself from sliding completely into the bathtub.
"Cleaning the scales."
The ghost's voice was cold and indifferent, with a hint of anger and jealousy.
Although blood is also one of His slices, and the part that just interacted with Xu Zhiyan has also been recovered...
But when I think of that guy's rude words, the images that appear in my mind, and look at the blood still sticking in the gaps between the scales of my beloved, I still feel very uncomfortable.
Xu Zhiyan almost fainted after hearing this.
What the hell! He has so many scales, does he have to peel them off one by one to wash them? When did his client become a germaphobe?
