Chapter 25:

After discovering this, Ruan Bai's heart sank slightly.
Without even thinking about it, she quickly jumped back and hurriedly avoided the attack of the ghost with both hands. At the same time, she kicked her right foot down and kicked the ghost's head away!
After being kicked hard by her, the ghost uttered an angry scream, and at the same time the rope shook, throwing the ghost to the other end of the room.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ruan Bai hurriedly backed away a few steps and hid by the wall.
"Squeak... Yeah..."
The ceiling trembled slightly from the violent shaking, and there was a distinct and harsh pulling sound.
Ruan Bai held his breath and listened carefully, distinguishing the sound of the rope shaking in the dark.
Her hair was sweaty, her clothes were covered with sticky blood, and a salty smell surrounded her, but she didn't care.
As long as she can hear clearly, she can predict the position of the other party in advance, and then completely deal with it!
"Squeak...squeak...well..."
"Squeak... Yeah..."
In the dull darkness, Ruan Bai's fingers were tightly clasped on the handle of the knife, his back was tight, and all his attention was focused on his ears.
Feeling the slight swaying wind, she suddenly jumped out like a cheetah that had been lurking for a long time, leaped up, and accurately cut off the rope hanging the ghost!
With a muffled noise, Ruan Bai and the ghost fell to the ground together.
She supported her tired and aching body, and quickly turned over on the ground, away from the ghost.
And just as she expected, the ghost's legs had lost the ability to move because they were tied tightly by the rope, and could only utter painful and unwilling wailing in the place.
She knew that she was temporarily safe.
After confirming this, Ruan Bai sat on the ground and rested for a while.
It wasn't until this moment that she felt an unpleasant rotting smell all over her body. And her body seemed to be stained with a lot of blood.
She thought about it, exchanged a lamp for the system, and turned it on.
I thought that turning on the light suddenly in the dark would make myself unable to adapt, and even hinder his actions, so Ruan Bai never thought about lighting up.
But now, she can observe here carefully.
After a burst of dazzling white light passed, Ruan Bai narrowed his eyes and struggled to adapt to the lit environment.
Later, she was surprised to find out what a weird place this was!
In a basement about the size of the confinement room on the ground, densely packed paper with strange runes painted around the walls.
The one who had just assaulted her was a girl who was wearing the uniform of the Fourth High School and looking at her about sixteen or seventeen.
At this time, her legs were tightly tied with a special rope, her clothes were stained with blood and dirty, and her hair was messy covering her face.
She crawled the ground, roaring resentment after roar.
On top of her head, there were four girls in school uniforms, who were also hung and tied to pillars on the roof.
Their seven orifices were blocked by something, and there were obvious and neat knife scratches on their bodies.
The blood followed their wounds, drop after drop, hitting the floor, and gathered together to form a bloodstain flowing slowly.
When Ruan Bai saw all this clearly, even though he had expected it in his heart, he was so frightened that he took a breath.
Hanging five girls upside down and bleeding, this is like a cult sacrificial scene!
Sure enough, there will be an accident in this school, certainly not because one or two girls were tortured to death.
As for why their blood lost the strong corrosiveness of last night, Ruan Bai guessed that it might be because a male player died, which restored the ratio of male to female.
The teachers and students in this school are all dead, only their players are still alive, so the ratio of males to females should only look at the players, and the extra NPCs from Class 9 cannot be counted in it.
...Yes, so no matter whether it is Shen Qingyun or the newcomer, there is no need to wear a skirt.
Ruan Bai suddenly realized that he had pitted Shen Qingyun again unconsciously.
However, if the female player did not die due to negligence on the first day, perhaps the situation here could be discovered earlier, and the more information she could grasp.
Fortunately, she arrived in time.
Although she was also injured, she has made great progress on the mission, which is not a loss.
While thinking, Ruan Bai stood up carefully, raised his head, and carefully looked at the girl above his head.
They fell into a deep sleep, motionless, and did not respond.
As for the the ground, one of the rope tied to her left foot was broken for some reason, causing her to fall down, her consciousness gradually clear, and she could sway through the only remaining rope tied to her right foot.
Ruan Bai remembered last night, it seemed that he could smell the blood of a man, so he walked to the side of the ghost on the ground and took a close look at its face under his hair.
Sure enough, under the girl's messy hair, her eyes, ears and mouth seemed to be blocked by something, but only one hole in her nose was blocked, and the contents of the other hole disappeared.
Perhaps it is because one of the seven orifices has not been sealed, that makes it wake up from its deep sleep.
But where did the ball that blocked its nose fell?
Ruan Bai squinted his eyes and searched carefully on the ground covered with blood.
Finally, in a corner, she found the little ball that could block her nostrils.
It should be a small pill, and it smells of cinnabar.
And beside the pill, there is a piece of paper that says: "Dieuestpardonnéparcequ’iln’existepas."
This piece of paper is very thin, because of the age, it has gradually turned yellow.
When that line of writing was written, it seemed to be very hard. The ink penetrated deeply into the paper, almost piercing it.
If it were before, Ruan Bai knew nothing about foreign languages, he didn't understand at all, and he didn't understand what this sentence meant.
But after coming out of the world of the Mermaid Village, out of curiosity, coupled with the compulsion to avoid the chaos, she learned a little about each voice, at least able to distinguish which language this passage belongs to.
French.
Moreover, this is a famous line in "Red and Black"
The reason why God is forgiven is because God does not exist.
Out of nostalgia for the first game world, Ruan Bai went to see Du Wenwen's favorite "Red and Black" and knew this sentence.
After discovering this note and recognizing the sentence, there seemed to be something in her mind that instantly became active!
She hurriedly walked over and observed the broken rope at the ankle of the ghost on the ground.
The breaks of the two ropes were very clean, there was no hair after being pulled and worn off, but the one on the left had been broken for a long time and was stained with dust and blood, while the rope on the right had just been cut by Ruan Bai.
After comparing the two fractures, Ruan Bai verified his inner guess.
Sure enough, it was not an accident that this girl could awaken.
Her rope was cut off, but maybe there was an accident with the person who saved her, only one rope was broken, and the other was kept, so that she could still move in the basement.
After discovering this, all the clues gradually merged in her mind, and finally formed an extremely clear and clear route
Not surprisingly, the person who cut off the rope and took away the small pill that blocked his nostrils was Du Wenwen.
Both this girl and the four hanging on it all exist in the form of ghosts, rather than being treated like this during her lifetime.
Ruan Baida could suspect that after they were tortured to death, they turned into ghosts because of their resentment and sought revenge in the school, so that the teacher invited the evil master of Luzi to capture their souls and seal the Qiqiao into a deep sleep. Entered this room.
For some reason, Du Wenxue discovered this basement and saw this situation.
Out of unbearableness for them, he took out the small pill, wrote down the condemnation of this passage, and placed it in the corner.
It's easy to understand why he only cut off a rope.
When the ghost is awake, it is bound to be extremely angry, but its legs are bound by a strange rope and cannot move.
But if Du Shushu cut one, it could shake and attack him.
Thinking that in the previous file, it was said that Du Wenxue had been away from school for half a year, Ruan Bai guessed that he should have been seriously injured before he was sent home for training.
It was not that she had never doubted whether the situation of the five girls was related to Du Wenwen, but she thought about it, this is unlikely, and Du Wenwen did not need to make such a show.
She recalled that when she was in the Mermaid Village, Gu Buchao had told him that through Du Wenwen's diary, she learned that Du Wenwen was very interested in unnatural spiritual situations.
It was out of this interest that he tentatively studied the connection between the mermaid and the mermaid, which led to his being killed by the mermaid.
What was he thinking in his mind when he was doing that?
The game presents these details to itself, but what does it want to tell itself?
Ruan Bai couldn't understand.
At this time, the ghosts on the ground were still creeping slowly.
She stared at Ruan Bai with resentment eyes, stretched out her hand and wanted to continue to catch her.
Ruan Bai picked up the little pill and walked over cautiously, grabbing the ghost's hand quickly with his eyesight, and stuffing it into the opponent's nose.
At the moment when the nostrils were blocked, the strength of the ghost suddenly disappeared, and the whole body fell to the ground, completely silent.
Seeing that the female ghost was silent, Ruan Bai shook her with his foot to confirm that it was not pretending to sleep.
Upon seeing this, she breathed a sigh of relief, ready to find an opportunity to return to the ground and continue to search for information in the office building.
Whether it is the malaria that is rampant in the school, the NPCs trapped here that cannot escape, and the source of school rules she most wants to know, it is still an unsolved mystery.
She can't waste time here anymore.
However, she hadn't taken a few steps yet, and the silent system suddenly issued a series of questions.
[Host, looking at the lonely, helpless girl who fell on the ground, isn't there a trace of movement in your heart? ] Ruan Bai: "..."
Wait, what does the system mean! ?
An unpleasant premonition rose in her heart in vain, and at the same time, the system's awkward voice came over—
【drop! Congratulations to the host, a random mission is released: rescue the trapped girl and take it out of this hellish cage! 】【Because the task is simple, the reward is 400, I hope the host will complete it carefully! Ruan Bai: "...This is a simple ghost!!!"
The author has something to say:
The system was pleasantly surprised: Yes, this is a "simple and only related to a ghost" task, referred to as "simple ghost", nothing wrong!
