The Mysterious Recovery of the Forgotten World

Chapter 331
In the face of Gu Li and Liu San's continuous inquiries, Li Leping did not explain what happened just now clearly, he only said: "Wait a minute, think of one thing for me."

After leaving such a sentence, he supported his right elbow with his left hand and touched his chin with his right hand, his eyes were solemn, and he fell into deep thought.

Gu Li and Liu San looked at each other, then turned to look at Ah Hong and Su Fan who were also confused.

Although I don't know why Li Leping stopped suddenly, and whether he found anything.

But at this moment, the four of them still remained silent in tacit understanding.

"Huanggang Village has been explored for so long, and I did find the house in the photo in the village. However, during two consecutive explorations, we all encountered unsolvable restarts. After two consecutive restarts, our The location was changed again, and the memories of Liu San and the others were reset to the original point."

"What is the restart time this time, also 10 minutes?"

Thinking of this, Li Leping glanced at the time while asking himself a question.

"No, it's not 10 minutes."

The time on the watch showed that it was 28:[-] in the morning.

The time displayed on the phone was 45:[-] in the morning.

"The restart time has changed, it's no longer 10 minutes."

Li Leping remembers very clearly that since he told everyone about the experience of restarting the first time, everyone also quickened their pace during the second action. After confirming the target, the five people did not go too far after entering the house. Wasting time on the first floor, but rushed directly to the second floor of the house.

And just after Liu San and he rushed into the first room on the second floor, they were attacked again, by the ghostly attack that was suspected to be the Forgotten Ghost.

Liu San was suppressed again, and just when Li Leping was about to make a move, this area was restarted again.

"The time of the first restart was 10 minutes, the exact time after the restart was 10:10 in the morning, and the time displayed on the phone was [-]:[-] and [-] minutes, that is to say, that restart brought us back to [-] minutes ago."

At this moment, Li Leping seemed to have turned on the shielding mode, and his ears could no longer hear anything. Only his eyes scanned the surroundings like an eagle, and at the same time, his thoughts leaped, and he began to summarize information after trial and error.

The sky is gray, and the paper dust falling from the sky accumulates on the road, like a thick layer of snow, and when walking on the road, there will be clear shoe prints.

Near them was a low brick bungalow.

The farmhouse is old, the door is ajar, and the inside is dark and dark, which makes people daunting and dare not go deep into it.

And not far away, the outline of the seventh house had already appeared in the dimness.

"This house is not the fifth farm house. According to the order of walking along the road, this should be the sixth farm house."

"When we were restarted for the first time, we were restarted near the fifth house in Huanggang Village, but now we are restarted near the sixth house."

"The restart time has been reduced from 10 minutes to seven minutes."

Through the comparison of the time on the watch and the mobile phone, combined with the location where everyone returned, Li Leping immediately noticed this.

At [-]:[-], he told Gu Li and the others about the restart.

Then, the second action begins.

But now, the time displayed on the gold watch is 28:8, that is to say, their last action took a total of [-] minutes.

This time is real and accurate, because gold is not affected by ghosts, and even a restart cannot change a watch made of gold.

Then, based on this exact time, after rushing into the house and opening the room on the second floor, the time displayed on the phone should be 38:[-].

If the restart time is still 10 minutes, then the time displayed on the phone at this moment should be 48:[-] in the morning.

However, the time displayed on the mobile phone screen is 45:[-].

"The time to restart is reduced."

Li Leping realized this, and at the same time raised his head slightly, and glanced at the paper dust floating down from the top of his head.

"The ghost hiding in the room should be part of Huanggang Village, and now Huanggang Village has been gradually suppressed by ghost paintings, and the restart time has also been affected..."

"Since this is the case, then, could the ghost on the second floor be a ghost messenger?"

Suddenly, such a guess popped up in his mind.

He didn't know why the female ghost in the room on the second floor was in the room.

However, since this ghost is in Huanggang Village, no matter whether she is in custody or in other states, in a word, she can be regarded as a part of the village.

Ghosts can change their identities continuously to achieve restarts.

"Wang Xiaoming's plan seems to have begun to develop towards success." Li Leping thought to himself.

When he was in the experimental base, he once faced the terrifying ability that Guichai developed after being put into the coffin for the third time—replication and restart.

However, in this operation, at least so far, he has not really met the ghost messenger.

There may be only one reason why the ghost messenger did not wander around the village.

Because it is being gradually suppressed, so that even if it wants to reverse everything by restarting, under the suppression of Guihua, the entire ghost domain of Guichai has been suppressed.

Under this premise, various changes began to erupt.

"The ghost messenger was suppressed by the ghost painting, and the ability of the new stage of growth seems to have been suppressed. Could it be that the current ghost messenger is starting to restart by changing a new identity like it did at the beginning?"

The brain was running at high speed, and suddenly, Li Leping thought of this.

This seems to be the answer to the question.

It is impossible for the spirit of ghosts to decrease for no reason. This will only happen under the interference of some stronger spirit.

The ghost in the room on the second floor is suspected to be a re-selected identity after the ghost agent restarted.

Therefore, she has the ability to restart ghosts, and this restart will be accompanied by a kind of forgotten supernatural power.

"But... does the ghost messenger still have the ability to restart the range..."

Following the train of thought of the question, Li Leping couldn't help thinking about the abilities possessed by ghosts.

"Forget it, I can't waste time on these uncertain issues. I have to hurry up now. The ghost painting is gradually eroding this area, and it has even begun to affect the restart of the ghost. If it continues, once the ghost painting completely blocks the ghost. I don’t know if that rotten doorknob can still take me out.”

After thinking for a while, he resolutely gave up on pursuing the answer to this question.

He didn't intend to think about ghosts at this time. After the collision of two S-class ghosts, no one can make a conclusion about what is going on in this place now.

What he has to do now is to find a way to get back the ghost that belongs to the forgotten ghost on that ghost.

Suddenly, Li Leping turned his head to look at Gu Li, and then at Liu San.

"Ok?"

Seeing Li Leping stop suddenly, Gu Li and the others who were lost in thought did not dare to disturb him at all.

But now seeing that he seemed to have figured it out, but suddenly looked at the other four with serious eyes, Gu Li and the others couldn't help but feel a little weird, even uncomfortable.

If they didn't have a certain understanding of Li Leping, they might think that Li Leping suddenly fell ill, or something went wrong with his mental state.

"lets go."

After a moment of silence, all he said was this.

Didn't explain much, and didn't explain anything about restarting.

He already had a plan in mind, and the key to the success of this plan did not lie in whether Gu Li and the others knew about the restart.

Therefore, he did not intend to waste time here.

After collecting information for 1 minute, he walked towards the seventh farm house in the dark again.

"Hey, what's going on?" Gu Li saw that Li Leping had moved again, so he stepped forward and asked.

Glancing at Gu Li, Li Leping's eyes suddenly became complicated when he saw his ignorant appearance about what happened just now.

"I'll talk to you later when I have a chance."

Li Leping only answered this sentence.

If this operation fails again, then it is hard to say whether there will be a fourth time.

And if Li Gui restarts again, or is still able to restart, then there is no point in explaining too much now.

Just like Li Leping can't be remembered for his appearance.

Redundant explanations will only appear more meaningless in the face of repeated forgetting.

Once again, Li Leping walked outside the three-story building.

The pale ghostly light brought a glimmer of light to the house that had fallen into darkness.

"This is the house."

Li Leping looked at this old private house with serious eyes.

It was already the third time for him to come here, but Gu Li and the others had no impression of all this.

"Step, step, step~!"

There was another sound of heavy footsteps in the dark house, which immediately changed the expressions of Gu Li and the others.

"Go in?" Liu San frowned.

Although he experienced another round of restarts, he has already forgotten what happened in the private house.

However, he did not forget the content of the initial conversation, which was the purpose of Li Leping's trip.

Li Leping wanted to find a three-story private house in Huanggang Village.

A three-story building, so far, only the house in front of me seems to meet the requirements.

"Yes." Li Leping nodded.

"I really can't help it." Liu San frowned, a trace of helplessness appeared on her sallow face.

"The ghost is on the second floor. My character walks up the stairs, and when I reach the second floor, the game character dies."

At this time, Su Fan, who was still playing the game behind him, informed everyone of the death process of the protagonist of the mobile game.

"Okay, got it, I'll go in first."

Liu San once again took the initiative to undertake the task of exploring the way.

He owed Li Leping a favor, so he wanted to pay one back now.

However, what he didn't know, or what he didn't remember, was that this was the third time he had come to this house.

If favors are counted, Li Leping probably owes him a favor.

Immediately, Liu San was the first to walk into the dark lobby on the first floor of the house.

The lobby was dim, even if Gu Li entered with a light in his hand, he couldn't fully illuminate the place.

After Liu San came in, the other four also rushed into the lobby one after another.

At the same time, the movement in the room just now disappeared suddenly, and there were no footsteps, as if what I heard just now was just an illusion.

"Ok?"

But just when Liu San rushed into this private house with the door open, and was about to go straight to the second floor, his expression changed suddenly, and his paper body trembled even more.

"what is this?"

He lowered his head, eyes filled with disbelief.

Because the moment he entered the room, he saw many shoe prints under his feet.

These shoe prints are messy, as if stepped on by many individuals, including leather shoes, sneakers, and even high heels.

The shoe prints are outlined on the ground by gray and white ash, which is particularly conspicuous in this blackened land.

"The things inside, have they ever been outside?"

Liu San couldn't believe it.

This gray-white ashes can be seen everywhere in Huanggang Village today.

If you step on the road casually, a thick layer of ash will be left on the soles of your shoes.

And when Liu San was astonished, Li Leping calmly said: "Don't worry about it, go upstairs, time is running out."

"it is good."

Liu San's uncertain complexion looked a little creepy against his sallow complexion, but he still followed Li Leping's suggestion.

Now it's not a matter of tangling with those shoe prints.

The ghost in the house is the key.

Before encountering Li Gui, he was frightened by the shoe prints left on the ground.

Everyone's spirits were immediately tense to the extreme.

Liu San walked up the stairs with steady steps, and soon came to the corridor on the second floor.

In his eyes he saw two rooms.

The room is an old wooden door, because it cannot be closed, it is now half closed.

And on the way to the door, Liu San saw many shoe prints.

"This... seems to be the shoe prints left by my shoes?" Suddenly, he realized this.

The shoe prints just now were too mixed. After all, they were the shoe prints left by five people who entered the house twice in a row, so it is normal for them to find their own among the chaotic shoe prints.

However, when Liu San came to the second floor, looking at the very familiar shoe prints that were no longer disturbed by other shoe prints, his eyes shrank suddenly.

In an instant, a terrifying thought appeared in Liu San's mind.

"I've been here before, and it's not the first time."

"what?!"

Su Fan who was behind Li Leping was extremely astonished when he heard the words, even Ah Hong and Gu Li's expressions changed suddenly.

Everyone is here for the first time today, why are you the exception?

"Impossible, Liu San, your guess must be wrong. This is the first time we've come here, and we've never been here before. I remember it very clearly." Su Fan immediately interrupted his imagination.

Liu San looked anxious, eager to prove his guess: "If we haven't been here, why are my shoe prints left here? And the shoe prints in the lobby just now, although messy, you can still see some of them belonged to the lady. Compared with other normal shoe prints, the size of the high-heeled shoe print and the half-mutilated print all indicate that it is a pair of high-heeled shoes."

"And here, there happened to be one person wearing high heels."

Immediately, Liu San turned her head and looked down at the only female ghost master in the team.

On Ah Hong's feet, she was wearing a pair of high heels, but the height was not very obvious, but if she stepped on the ground, the unique shoe print would definitely be distinguishable at a glance.

When he said these words, Liu San's voice trembled a little.

He is not afraid of bumping into ghosts, after all, this is what he eats.

However, he will feel afraid of everything he cannot understand.

Ah Hong, who suddenly became the center of the topic, was also taken aback, her eyes fixed on her shoes.

"Is there something wrong with our memory? Or is it that we encountered a restart here? So we repeat our previous actions again and again?" Gu Li said at this time.

"Okay, don't worry about it so much, open the door." However, Li Leping interrupted Gu Li's guess at this moment.

His voice was calm and undeniable.

"Li Leping, do you know something?" Immediately, Liu San asked.

He always felt that Li Leping was weird from the beginning.

Calm, too calm, even a little too rational.

While everyone was amazed at the shoe prints that matched his soles, Li Leping seemed to have known all of this in advance. Not only did he have no desire to analyze it, he didn't even show any emotion on his face .

"I do know some things, you forget, but I don't forget."

After Li Leping said this, he bypassed Liu San who was at the front, and then walked towards the first room on the second floor: "This time, let's do it together."

"Wait a moment.

Behind Liu San, he pressed Li Leping's shoulder, and said in a displeased tone: "Shouldn't you explain it?"So start ordering us? "

He is willing to give Li Leping some face, but the premise is that Li Leping can't hide like Wang Xiaoming.

Otherwise, Liu San was afraid that he would die for no apparent reason.

"It's meaningless to explain. I've explained it once, but you guys forgot. Maybe after this time, you'll forget all about it, but I may not be able to accompany you to the next time." After a moment of silence, Li Leping said.

"So Liu San's guess is true? We have been here before, but we all forgot?" Su Fan panicked.

"Yes, so you just need to listen to me, because I'm the only one who remembers." Li Leping said.

As he spoke, he glanced outside the house through the windowless hole.

The outside of the house is gray, the sky seems to be deprived of color, even the whole Huanggang Village has been deprived of color, lost its original color, the monotonous gray is silent in this world, revealing an extremely depressing feeling.

"Time is running out, I don't want to explain anything."

Li Leping looked at Liu San who was holding him, and then looked at Su Fan and the others behind him: "This time, I will take the lead, and you will follow behind. When you encounter a ghost, you should immediately attack. I may have a way to make the ghost come back." There will be another round of restarts."

After speaking, he took off the short black stick behind him.

There are only three things, he will try to use all means to kill Li Gui's restart ability.

"Is this desperate?"

The others looked at Li Leping's ordinary face, especially Liu San, and looked at the short black stick in his hand, and their hearts shuddered.

Although they don't know what happened before, and they don't know the reason and process of restarting.

But from the analysis of Li Leping's words and his actions, it is not difficult to see that he is going to go all out this time.

Everyone went together, and most of them still knew nothing about what was about to happen.
