A ghost storyteller can lose his life but cannot lose his job

Chapter 87 Dimensional Mobius Strip
Climbing up to the third floor, Zhong Xie saw a door in front of him that was the same as the basement door. He looked at the lock on the door, and then at the Lu couple who had opened the door of the bedroom on the second floor and caught up with him.

With a determined heart, Zhong Xie directly opened the basement door leading to the third floor, then strode up to the third floor and locked the door at the back.

"Zhongbao, my Zhongbao!"

"Son, please come here quickly. It's very dangerous in there. It's full of deadly dangers, son."

The Lu couple kept banging on the door, and the husband and the wife cried and shouted, wanting Zhong Xie to come back. But Zhong Xie naturally would not let a sheep fall into a tiger's mouth, and he was sure that the Lu couple had no way to break through the barrier of the door.

Then Zhong Xie breathed a sigh of relief and started wandering around the so-called third floor.

Just as he guessed, this was the small attic in the Barbie Princess model house. It was lit with dim lights and was filled with messy clutter.

The attic's height was only half that of a normal floor, but Zhong Xie had no head now, so his height was just right for the attic. He was rummaging through the sundries in the attic while thinking deeply.

According to his previous speculation, the three rooms should present the concept of "high, medium and low" dimensions, and the blood-stained clothes must spread to a higher dimension in order to make the current dimension safe.

For example, the Barbie princesses spread the blood-stained clothes to the middle dimension where Zhong Xie's body was, and thus gained safety. However, Zhong Xie disliked them, so he spread part of the blood-stained clothes back to the low dimension, causing it to return to the Barbie house and continue to harass the Barbie princesses.

However, according to this line of thought, a new question arose in Zhong Xie's mind. The blood-stained robe from the middle dimension should be the only one he was wearing.

Since he had already worn the blood-stained clothes to the higher dimension where the Lu couple was, which was equivalent to human transportation to bring the blood-stained clothes to the higher dimension, then why could Lin Youlan and others in the middle dimension still feel the oppressive feeling of the blood-stained clothes?
Could it be that there is another blood-stained shirt in the middle dimension?
Or did the blood-stained clothes complete the "infection" without them noticing?
As soon as this thought came into the mind of the headless Zhong Xie, the real Zhong Xie immediately began searching every room, trying to find the second blood-stained shirt that had disappeared.

Lin Youlan and others also began to help Zhong Xie search, but after searching the entire house carefully and quickly, they did not find the second blood-stained shirt until Lin Youlan went down the stairs and reached the stairs to the first floor.

Little Sun, who was originally in the refrigerator, was now wandering around the dim first floor in a red down jacket. He was probably a little cold after staying in the refrigerator for too long.

With the help of the flashlight, they could clearly see that Xiao Sun's body was developing characteristics of flesh evolving into a rag doll.

After a while, this corpse will change from flesh to a puppet, becoming a complete horror story.

"Take off his clothes!" The original body Zhong Xie gave an order and led the charge. The next second after he gave the order, Lin Youlan beside him suddenly jumped out.

The two men approached Xiao Sun from the left and right. Zhong Xie picked up Kuster and hit him hard, knocking the defenseless Xiao Sun dizzy. Then he and Lin Youlan worked together to lock up Xiao Sun, one holding the right half of his body and the other holding the left half.

As for Kuster, he held Lin Youlan's skull crusher and stepped on Xiao Sun's head to prevent the head from suddenly stretching out and biting everywhere.

The ghost-like little Sun seemed to have tremendous strength, jumping on the ground like a carp that had come ashore, struggling desperately.

Jiang Shuran and Zhang Zita behind him tried to suppress Xiao Sun with the attacks of the ghost story, but neither the physical damage of the bloody mouth nor the energy attack of the barrage machine worked on Xiao Sun's body at this time.

Helplessly, the two could only choose the most primitive way of suppression, one holding the left leg and the other holding the right leg, to prevent Xiao Sun's legs from kicking Lin Youlan and Zhong Xie on their bodies in a strange and twisted posture.

Zhong Xie was okay, as he had thick skin and tough flesh, and he looked like nothing happened even after being kicked several times. However, Lin Youlan was a bit miserable. After being kicked, she felt dizzy and had a sweet feeling in her throat.

However, this injury instead aroused her ferocity. She turned around suddenly and twisted Xiao Sun's fleshy arm 360 degrees, then reached out and pulled down the zipper of his red down jacket.

Zhong Xie pulled Xiao Sun's arms apart, kicked him on the shoulder from behind, breaking his bones, and then smoothly pulled off half of his down jacket in an inhumane posture.

The next step was the other half. In just half a minute, they successfully snatched the down jacket from a corpse that looked like something out of a bloody horror story.

"Let's go!" Zhong Xie took the down jacket, grabbed Kuster's rat thigh, swung it up and hit Xiao Sun, knocking him away, and then led the others back to the second floor quickly.

Kuster has gotten used to it and doesn't care at all about being used as a weapon by Zhong Xie.

As a dual-attribute monster of the rule system and the giant system, he can learn all attribute entries except the parasitic system. However, in daily life, he is used by Zhong Xie as a parasitic monster (weapon).

Haha, I'm used to it.

As long as you can gain combat experience, that's enough.

After two days of training under Lao Qin, the few of them have become quite tacit in understanding each other. Xiaolan, who was standing at the stairs taking care of her sleeping sister, was stunned by their behavior, which was like that of a bandit gang.

She knew that Lin Youlan was a tough guy, but she didn't expect that the others in the team were no less capable.

Just as they thought, after returning to the second floor, Xiao Sun stopped chasing them. Soon he was completely turned into a puppet and was hung by a red rope at the stairs on the first floor.

Almost at the same time, Xiaolan was horrified to find that her sister had similar doll-like features.

At this point, Zhong Xie could basically make a judgment. The method of death in this ghost story was to turn people into puppets one by one. The half-turned puppets would attack other creatures on the same floor, and the fully-turned puppets would appear at the stairs in a hanging posture.

Zhong Xie looked at the red down jacket in his hand, and for a moment he couldn't figure out how this lethal power was combined with the triple-dimensional space.

Logically speaking, even if it is a rule-based horror story, there must be a linkage effect between its rules, just like the village horror stories in "Crime and Punishment". They are not as unrelated as the puppets and space in front of us, and can even be said to be two different horror stories.

Ok?
Two weird stories?

"Could this model house and the blood-stained robe be two different kinds of strange stories?" Zhong Xie realized this, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that he had entered a dead end of rigid thinking. Zhang Zitai subconsciously denied it. He was an energy-based strange storyteller, and he had the clearest sense of strange story auras. From the beginning to the end, there was only a faint aura of strange stories here, and from the feeling, it was neither the blood-stained robe nor the model house.

If there really were two ghost stories, they would have probably started fighting over territory, and the noise would have been very obvious.

If they don't fight, it can only be because they come from the same ghost story master, but that will bring up a new problem, as they can still tell whether a ghost story has a master or not.

As a ghost story, once it is tainted with the scent of "humanity", it is difficult to eliminate. A ghost story with an owner is like a story that has been to the sea. Anyone with a discerning eye can recognize that the smell is unusual.

"No, these are definitely not two strange stories that can be judged by common sense." Zhong Xie thought of his old unit, the "Jinchuan Mental Hospital". If the hospital in Haicheng is of the same lineage as his hospital, then it is normal for similar geniuses to appear there.

If the strange story of two abilities that have something in common or that are contradictory is artificially induced into a state of freezing, then that would explain the current doubts.

This was a reminder given to him by his brother Jiuyao's words in Wangcheng. Since the people of Wangcheng could control the ghost stories in that way, it was not impossible for them to control the wild ghost stories and cause them to crash.

Although they are in a dead state, their powers will still be output in an inefficient way, just like the abilities related to Bloody Clothes and Ragdolls and Hanging.

It was because the two of them were in a deadlock and their ghost talk powers devoured each other that the concentration of the ghost talk power felt by Zhang Zitai was so low, and the ghost talk envoy who came to investigate earlier ignored this house, thinking that there was no danger here.

When a wild ghost story hurts people, unless it has a cover-up entry, the concentration of the ghost story is often very high.

If we break what happened here into two parts, the bloody clothes are related to the puppet's hanging, while the model house is related to the changes in the dimensional space.

The latter is used to trap these people to death, while the former is to let them slowly turn into rag dolls and die in an inefficient way.

The combination of the two can produce an effect that is close to a lethal rule-based weird story. It has to be said that there are many talented people in Jinchuan Psychiatric Hospital.

Putting aside the part related to the blood-stained clothes ghost story, the effect of the model house ghost story will be much clearer.

By creating different dimensions of space, people hiding in it are trapped and killed, and the abnormalities within the affected area are forcibly rationalized.

Normally, this alien space should be able to be broken through, but the Blood-stained Clothes Ghost Story makes up for this.

Anything that tries to break through the barrier will be turned into a doll, just like a skull crusher. In the end, the headless Zhong Xie failed to break through the barrier in the high-dimensional house and left with the patrolling ghost story teller.

As for the fact that the headless Zhong Xie can travel through different dimensions, this is probably because he is wearing a blood-stained shirt, but at the same time it needs to conform to the effect of the model house ghost story - forced rationality.

So when he called Mrs. Lu "Mom", in order to convince Mrs. Lu to let him go downstairs, he actually went downstairs from the middle-dimensional house to the high-dimensional house.

Although there are still other doubts, Zhong Xie has already made a basic judgment on this series of strange stories in his mind.

For him, things beyond the understanding of ordinary people can be answered with just one sentence: "We in Jinchuan Psychiatric Hospital are all talented people." In short, Zhong Xie didn't care about the basic theory of ghost stories. He just believed that someone in the hospital had managed to make the two ghost stories freeze, thereby setting a trap and replacing Xiaolan's family without anyone knowing.

As for the purpose of murdering their family...

Zhong Xie hadn’t thought of this yet, but it should be related to the “Wangcheng Project” that Xiaolan’s father has been talking about recently.

It seems that Jinchuan Psychiatric Hospital is no longer satisfied with the medical industry and has turned to the declining real estate industry.

So how do we destroy such a weird trap?
Zhong Xie's eyes fell on the red down jacket again, and after a brief hesitation, he put on the down jacket.

The model room in the high-dimensional room is a microcosm of the middle-dimensional space, and the model room in the middle-dimensional room is a microcosm of the low-dimensional space.

At present, it has formed a dimensional extension and a perfect logical closed loop.

At the same time, the miniature displayed by this model house is in the "past tense", with an error tolerance of about twenty minutes, which means that the model house cannot evolve in real time.

That would be easy.

Zhong Xie, wearing a red down jacket, smiled brightly. Previously, he was able to stuff the blood-stained clothes into Barbie Princess's room to cause damage, which meant that he could affect the low-dimensional space through the model room.

Simply put, one model room symbolizes the middle dimension, which is the space where his real body is located, and one model room symbolizes the low dimension, which is the space where the headless Zhong Xie is located.

All he had to do was to swap the positions of the two model rooms, bring the model room that symbolized the middle dimension (originally in the high-dimensional room) to the middle dimension, and then he could control the model room...

It is equivalent to him controlling the middle-dimensional space he is in through the model house. For example, if he puts his hand into the window of the model house, in the real world, twenty minutes later a big hand will appear and reach out from the window.

In this way, he can even "touch himself".

With this idea, Zhong Xie can create a "Mobius strip in dimension", connected from beginning to end, that is, "I" grasps "I" myself.

For the model house’s current “freeze” low-power mode, what will this buggy operating mode bring?
Never mind, let’s give it a try. At worst, all three spaces will collapse together.

　I have a lot to do today, but at least I have updated 7k, so it should not be difficult to understand, right? Anyway, after explaining the principle, I will start to work, I am so tired of holding it in.
