From Platform 69 to the Second-Hand Goods Alley, there is still a distance to go, and it takes more than ten minutes to walk. Lin Mo can just ask about the situation in the Second-Hand Goods Alley.
The poor guy said it had been in the Junk Alley for a long time.
"No one knows when the smiling face came, and no one even knows if it is the real face." The poor ghost looked miserable and sad, as if he had suffered a great injustice.
“But once the smiley face spread, it was out of control. Even the security captain couldn’t stop it.” The poor ghost recalled the previous chaos, and the fear in his eyes was obvious.
When Lin Mo heard the words "security captain", his eyelids jumped.
"How is the security captain? Has he been infected by the smile?"
There are not many people in this world who can make Lin Mo care so much, and dad must be the first one.
"How could that be? The security captain is the security captain after all. How could he be easily infected by smiling faces? Even I have ways to deal with smiling faces." The bad guy seemed to admire the security captain very much.
"Are you immortal?" Lin Mo asked.
What we know now is that once you are infected by a smiling face, there is almost no solution.
But there are still two ways to eliminate the power of the smiley face.
One is very simple and direct, which is to kill people infected by the smiley face.
Like a ghost.
It was killed once by Lin Mo's chopping of its head, so it was able to get rid of the entanglement of the smiling face. But to use this method, the prerequisite is to have an immortal body, the kind that can be resurrected after being killed.
Otherwise, you will really die.
The other method is to use the "bewitching" curse that Lin Mo currently possesses.
To be honest, the 'bewitching' curse is more effective against Smiley Face, at least it doesn't require death once. Lin Mo has used it on himself and Xiaoyu.
Two practices are enough to illustrate the effect of this "bewitching" curse.
To put it bluntly, it is to "deceive yourself" in order to eliminate the impact of the smile.
In addition, there are nightmares that are born with the ability to suppress smiling faces.
It was like a half-nightmare.
Half-Nightmare can cover the eyes with ghosts, create illusions to confuse the target, and deceive the target with nonsense. This is similar to "Bewitch", of course, the power is a little less.
But the power of using both vision and hearing together is also considerable.
Half-Nightmare relied on its own abilities to become immune to Smiley Face's infection.
"I don't have an immortal body." The poor ghost shook his head: "Immortal body, there is no such thing as true immortality. Even if there is, it has a price and limitations."
"Then how come you died and came back to life?"
"It's actually a curse." The poor ghost pulled out a piece of yellow paper from its heart. Lin Mo was stunned by what he saw, and thought to himself that this poor ghost was also collecting curse sequences.
I saw some curses written on the yellow paper of the unlucky ghost.
It pointed at one of them and said, "This cat god can give me nine lives, but if these nine lives are used up, I will be really finished. I was able to come back to life before because of this curse."
Lin Mo nodded. He glanced at the yellow paper of the unlucky ghost, which already had five curses on it.
They are 6-3 Hatred, 3-9 Evil Spirit, 5-3 Thirst, 5-4 Insomniac, and 8-9 Cat God.
Lin Mo memorized it.
This cat god curse is very practical, but obviously, it is not as good as the real curse of immortality.
He could go and see it when he got the chance, but this curse didn't interest him.
Unless you are about to experience death, and if you don't have the curse of immortality by then, you can use this to make up for it.
The poor ghost continued to tell what happened in the second-hand alley.
"The smiley face spread, so all the shops in Junk Alley were closed and no one could go in. The security team shuttled through the alleys, wearing masks, catching those infected with the smiley face, but the effect was average." The unlucky ghost said with a bitter face: "I was infected, and then I was beaten to death by the security team once. With the help of the power of the curse, I survived. I knew that Junk Alley was no longer safe, so I escaped, but I didn't expect to meet a smiley ghost on the way and got infected again. At that time, I took advantage of a little lucidity, killed the smiley ghost, and then ran onto the bus."
"I don't remember clearly what happened afterwards. I was in a daze, and it felt like my body was controlled by another person, until you stabbed me with the knife."
Lin Mo listened carefully and kept pondering in his mind.
According to what the ghost said, the second-hand goods alley is now very dangerous. The smiley face has spread and is difficult to control. In fact, the most terrifying thing is that once the smiley face spreads to Tiantian, everything will be over.
The safety of the Second-Hand Alley is based on Tiantian's mind power. Once Tiantian gets into trouble, the Second-Hand Alley will collapse immediately. If the Second-Hand Alley collapses, the bronze door below will be opened, and disaster will come.
But compared to this, Lin Mo was more worried about his father.
Although Sui Gui said that the security captain was strong enough to resist the infection of the smile, Lin Mo was still a little worried.
"Besides infection, does Smiley Face have any other means of attack?" Lin Mo asked.
"Yes." The poor ghost was staring at the front at this time. Not far away, the huge outline of the Second-Hand Alley was already visible, dotted with some lights. Those were the lights inside the Second-Hand Alley.
On this dark and endless Route 66, Junk Alley is undoubtedly a safe haven, but also the only way for those trapped by the Cage Curse to escape the curse.
At this moment, the Second-Hand Alley seems to be more bizarre and more puzzling than ever before.
"People infected with the smiley face will have several states, which can be simply summarized as initial infection, moderate infection and full infection. The me you saw before should be between moderate infection and full infection, and I may be one step away from reaching the state of full infection."
Lin Mo thought about it and realized that he had been infected with the smiley face before and could still think, have self-awareness and act freely.
This should be considered an initial infection state.
If the infection reaches moderate level, you may become like the unlucky ghost and the bus driver, unable to control your body, and can only show a weird smile and infect others.
"Initial and moderate infections are not actively aggressive, but after a full infection, they become very aggressive, just like the two things above."
The poor ghost pointed at the two figures in front.
“Giggle!”
A strange laugh came from the front.
“By the way, if it reaches a fully infected state, not only will the smile be the weirdest, but it will also make a weird laugh.” After the poor ghost said this, his face became ferocious, and he immediately rushed forward and killed the two figures in front.
You can't tell, but this bad guy is quite powerful. When he starts fighting, it's as if he has a deep hatred for the other party.
Lin Mo guessed that this was related to the curse of the unlucky ghost, '6-3 Hatred', which was also its means of attack.
After killing two nightmares infected with the smiley face, the poor ghost came back with a sad face and said to Lin Mo in fear: "It's bad, I was filled with hatred just now and couldn't help but attacked. Do you think I've been infected again?"
