Chapter 288 Regaining Skills
After only a short while, Dabi slowly woke up. Seeing that it was Lin Hao in front of him, he asked tiredly:
"Ah Hao, did you save me?"
Lin Hao neither confirmed nor denied it, he just patted his shoulder and said:
"I'm leaving first, you have a good rest!"
"Wait!" Dabi sat up and suddenly said, "Ah Hao, tell me, are all of us who played the psychic game yesterday infected?"
Dabi was not stupid either. He reacted immediately after he woke up and realized that there must be something wrong with the psychic game they played last night.
Sure enough, after Lin Hao pondered for a while, he said leisurely:
"That's about right! First it was Carrot Head, now it's you, and the next one should be Xiaobi, because I just came from Annie's place, and she's fine for now!"
Lin Hao still told the order of death of several people according to the original plot, although the plot has changed a little now, for example, Carrot Head is still alive.
However, according to Lin Hao's calculations, this ranking will most likely not change.
Because when playing the psychic game, Chu Renmei first stood next to Tall Arms, and after looking around, she finally stood next to Carrot Head, which is very telling!
Of course, even if the order of death really changed, he wouldn't care.
"What, the next one is Xiaobi?" Upon hearing this, Dabi said excitedly:
"Ah Hao, I beg you to think of a way to save Xiaobi. I know you have a way. If you can save me, you can definitely save Xiaobi, right!"
Lin Hao was calm in his heart, but he said seriously:
"Don't worry, I'll go save her right away!" Lin Hao said as he walked outside.
"Ah Hao, wait a minute. I'm worried about Xiao Bi. I'll go with you to find him. One more person means more strength!"
Lin Hao, with his back to his arm, looked extremely ugly when he heard the familiar words again. Fortunately, he had practiced the skill of nourishing qi deeply enough.
When Lin Hao turned around, his complexion had completely returned to normal, and he said with concern:
"Forget it! After all, you just had a serious illness, and you may not be able to help even if you go!"
But Dabi said with extraordinary determination: "Ahao, take me there!"
"Xiao Bi is my girlfriend, I want to save her, at any cost!"
Looking at Dabi's determined eyes, anyone who listens to his words will be moved by the feelings between them.
Moreover, according to common sense, if Dabi was left alone, Chu Renmei might come and kill him at any time, so Dabi should be taken with him.
If there was no system, there would naturally be no problem with the big arm, but Lin Hao had a system. The result of the failure to solidify the skills showed that they were influenced by Chu Renmei!
Besides, Dabi's mother was alone at home, and he completely disregarded her mother's safety for the sake of his girlfriend. Shouldn't he bring her with him to prevent her from being killed by Chu Renmei?
But since you want to follow me again and again, I would like to see what you want to do?
So Lin Hao nodded and said:
"Okay, put on your clothes, I'll wait for you outside!" Lin Hao said as he came to the living room.
At this time, the mother with big arms was about to put down the phone, so Lin Hao, unwilling to give up, activated the illusion skill again, trying to find a flaw in her consciousness space.
After some searching, no traces left by Chu Renmei were found, but Lin Hao believed that the system would not deceive him. Since the solidification failed, Chu Renmei must have tampered with it.
At this time, the big-armed mother turned around, and Lin Hao casually said:
"Auntie, his upper arm is much better now. I'm going to take him to see someone to make sure there aren't any sequelae!"
"Great, Ahao, thank you so much this time, you can take him there! I'll be waiting for him~!"
After hearing what the big-armed mother said, Lin Hao obviously felt that what she said was very awkward, but he didn't care.
At this time, Dabi had already put on his clothes and came to the living room, so after saying goodbye to her, the two went to Xiaobi's house together.
When they arrived at Xiaobi's house, Lin Hao and Dambi discovered that the door was not locked, and they heard faint sounds coming from inside.
When I listened carefully, I heard a strange Cantonese opera. The voice was so miserable that it made the hair on my body stand on end!
Thinking of the original plot in which Xiaobi killed her mother and then committed suicide, Lin Hao felt something was not good, and then the two of them immediately broke into the room.
At this time, Xiaobi's mother was lying on the sofa with a rope around her neck, and Xiaobi herself was about to swallow a knife to commit suicide.
At this moment, the big arm immediately stepped forward and snatched the knife from his girlfriend's hand, but Lin Hao remained unmoved. Instead, he silently said in his heart:
"Solidify the skills used by Chu Renmei!"
Ding: "Skills are solidifying!"
Ding: "Skill repeated, solidification failed!"
The sound coming from the system was still the same sound of solidification failure. Lin Hao looked at Xiaobi carefully and shook his head.
This Chu Renmei seemed to have been avoiding him since she left this morning, which made it impossible for Lin Hao to test out his ideas.
Seeing that the knife in Xiaobi's hand was taken away by Dabi, regardless of whether they were performing or not, Lin Hao took the opportunity to use the illusion skill, entered Xiaobi's consciousness space, and modified the illusion woven by Chu Renmei.
Sure enough, after Lin Hao modified the illusion in Xiaobi's mind, she immediately returned to normal. When Xiaobi saw that her mother was strangled to death by herself, she cried so heartbreakingly.
At the same time, Lin Hao did not directly exit Xiaobi's consciousness space, but divided his attention into two parts, with part of his consciousness returning to control his body.
At this time, Big Arm suddenly said:
"Ah Hao, you said before that Carrot Head would come to me next, followed by Xiao Bi, and finally Annie."
"That is to say, Annie is in danger now, so let's go and save Annie!"
At this time, Xiaobi, who had just experienced the pain of losing her mother, also wiped away her tears and said:
"Yes, let's go find Annie! In case Annie encounters the same thing!"
Lin Hao discovered that Chu Renmei should be ready at this time, and it was time to enter the decisive battle.
At this time, Lin Hao, who remained in Xiaobi's consciousness space, watched many illusions generated in Xiaobi's consciousness space and were constantly being modified.
Lin Hao then understood that Chu Renmei had modified the illusion through remote control, instead of having to modify it face to face like himself.
Just when Lin Hao was about to solidify his skills, the generated illusion had stopped changing.
"No, I must get the ability to remotely modify illusions!" At this moment, Lin Hao's mind moved and he already had a plan!
Lin Hao looked at the two of them meaningfully, then turned his head to look at the body on the sofa and said deliberately:
"You guys better not go! Xiaobi, you'd better deal with Auntie's body first, Dabi, you should stay and help too, otherwise what will you do when the police come?"
However, just as Lin Hao finished speaking, the illusion in Xiaobi's consciousness space was modified again, and Lin Hao took this opportunity to immediately recite in his heart:
"Solidify the skills used by Chu Renmei!"
Ding: "Skills are solidifying!"
Ding, get the skill: "Spirit Mark!"
Lin Hao didn't have time to check his newly acquired skills, now he needed to deal with Xiaobi.
I only heard Xiaobi excitedly say: "I can't care about so many things now. The most important thing now is to rescue Annie first!"
"Yes! Yes! Let's go and rescue Annie first, and then we'll come back to deal with Aunt's body!" Big Arm also echoed and urged.
When Lin Hao heard this, he said with a look of deep emotion:
"Okay! Thank you very much, you really are my good friends!"
With that, Lin Hao left Xiaobi's house directly. Dabi and Xiaobi looked at each other, without even looking at the corpse on the sofa, and followed Lin Hao to Annie's house.
After the three of them got into the taxi, everyone was silent, and Lin Hao finally had time to check the skills he had acquired.
Mental Mark: "The host can use mental power to mark the locked target to obtain the target's current location and status."
Special reminder: The number of marks is the maximum value of mental power. For each additional mark exceeding the limit, 1 destiny point must be paid.
"Maximum mental power?" His mental power is 13 points, which means he can mark up to 13 targets!
Ding: "The Illusion skill is linked to the Spirit Mark skill. It can strengthen the Illusion skill. Do you want to spend 10 destiny points to strengthen this skill?"
When encountering such a good thing, what else is there to say? Just silently recite in your heart:
"strengthen!"
Ding: "The illusion skill has been updated, please check it yourself."
Illusion: "Compiles an illusion into the target's consciousness to exert influence on the target. Can be performed remotely on mentally marked objects."
Special note: "The higher the mental power, the stronger the illusion effect and the longer the casting distance; when the casting distance is too far, or the mental power is lower than the marked object, there is a risk of being discovered!"
It seems that I really need to prioritize adding points to my mental power attribute in the future. My ability to expand space is also directly related to my mental power, so it will definitely not be a loss to prioritize mental power!
After reading the skill description, Lin Hao finally understood why his previous solidified skills always failed.
Chu Renmei uses resentment as a medium, that is, the bath water tainted with her resentment, to remotely weave illusions in their consciousness in order to achieve the purpose of seducing and controlling them.
Lin Hao had failed to solidify this skill several times before. The reason was actually very simple. When Lin Hao came into contact with the other four friends, Chu Renmei's illusion had already been woven remotely!
When Lin Hao was solidifying his skills, Chu Renmei had already stopped remote control, which was why his previous attempts to solidify his skills had failed repeatedly.
It was not until he failed repeatedly on the mother and child with the big arm that Lin Hao suddenly realized this.
So when he arrived at Xiaobi's house, he just waited in Xiaobi's consciousness space.
Sure enough, when Chu Renmei performed the remote weaving illusion, Lin Hao used the solidification skill and succeeded in one go!
At this time, Lin Hao suddenly heard the radio broadcast in the taxi:
"Five murders have occurred in Fushan Village recently, and the police have not made any progress in solving the cases. Before that, three murders also occurred in Lushan Village."
"According to the Royal Hong Kong Police, there is no evidence to show that the murders in the two villages are related. The investigation is still ongoing. Please rest assured, Hong Kong citizens, the Royal Hong Kong Police are capable of protecting the local area..."
When Lin Hao heard the news, he immediately remembered what Chu Renmei had done before she dealt with those four suicidal friends.
Those who accidentally drank Chu Renmei's bath water had actually already started to be killed!
Chu Renmei's experience is indeed worthy of sympathy, and her husband Bu Wantian, who is worse than a beast, deserves to be put to death.
But the problem is that after Chu Renmei took revenge, she still massacred one-third of the people in Huangshan Village, taking 66 lives in three days.
Of course, these old stories happened too long ago, and many of them can no longer be verified.
But now, Chu Renmei will come and take away anyone's life if they drink the water that is contaminated with her resentment, that is, her bath water.
What does these people have to do with Chu Renmei? They are people from two villages who have nothing to do with each other, but they took innocent lives just because they drank her bath water!
Whether from the plot or what happened in the past two days, it shows that Chu Renmei has self-awareness.
So she has evolved from a victim to a perpetrator. The former Chu Renmei was worthy of sympathy, but the Chu Renmei who still kills innocent people after taking revenge is not worthy of sympathy!
Of course, it is undoubtedly foolish to reason with a ghost, because human reasoning will definitely not be able to defeat Chu Renmei's ghost reasoning.
The taxi had stopped at this time, and the three of them walked silently to the fourth floor, which was the door of Annie's house.
Lin Hao, who had adjusted his mentality, was about to knock on the door when he found that the door had been opened and Annie was standing behind the door looking at them.
Then Lin Hao felt a gust of cold wind blowing, and immediately felt a chill on his body!
At this time, Annie wore a stiff smile, ignoring the upper and lower arms behind Lin Hao, and spoke to Lin Hao word by word:
"Ah Hao, you're finally here. I've been waiting for you for a long time! Come in!"
Lin Hao also calmed himself down and stepped into Annie's house, followed closely by his upper arm and lower arm, when all three of them entered the room.
"Click!" Anne locked the door as she closed it.
Lin Hao ignored Annie's action of locking the door and went straight into the living room.
Forearm stepped forward to support Annie and asked, "Annie, are you okay?"
"It's okay!" Annie said dazedly.
"I'm glad you're okay. We were all very worried about you and afraid that the ghost would come looking for you!" Big Arm also echoed.
However, when Anne heard this, her confused eyes immediately became sharp.
She didn't say anything either, just took a look at the forearm and upper arm, then the two of them quieted down and retreated to the sofa and sat down obediently!
Then Annie took out a bottle, poured a glass of water and pushed it in front of Lin Hao, saying expressionlessly:
"You must be thirsty! Come and have a glass of water!"
Looking at the cup of water pushed over, Lin Hao didn't want to continue acting with her. He looked at Annie with a scrutinizing look and said:
"Why, you're not pretending anymore?"
"What can you do to me if I don't drink this glass of water?"
Annie was startled when she heard this, and then a gust of cold wind blew in from the window. Lin Hao could see clearly that Chu Renmei in blue had finally appeared again.
Chu Renmei rushed directly into Annie's body from the window. Then Annie raised her head and looked at Lin Hao indifferently.
If an ordinary person saw this kind of scene, he would probably be scared to death, but Lin Hao's eyes lit up and he immediately said to himself:
"Solidify the skills used by Chu Renmei!"
Ding: "Skills are solidifying!"
