Chapter 604: Uncle’s notebook, a strange story goes wild.
It seems safe here for now. Walking around outside casually seems more dangerous.
As time went by, Su Yi once again sensed the curse beads outside...
Although I couldn't sense their exact locations, the number of them... was at least 10, which meant a battle involving at least 10 people...
I and others really don't have the conditions to fight them now.
Su Yi decided to get some information from the two of them first.
His intuition told him that the key to completing the game must be in this information.
Su Yi opened the small red-covered book.
Every page is filled with dense writing.
"My Weird Stories: Cursed Spirits, Page 33."
Shang Jiangping couldn't see clearly, but because of his red eyes, Su Yi could see it very clearly in the moonlight.
Just as Shangyue Cai said, this cursed object was once the relic of a beautiful priestess that was dug out by tomb robbers.
This necklace is particularly attractive, but once you wear it, your vitality will be sucked away and you will instantly turn into a mummy...
"I met a cat with a human face before..."
"Page 41." Shangyue Cai did not hesitate. It was obvious that she had read this notebook countless times.
【Cat with a human face.】
[In a quiet little village, there is a unique calico cat. This cat not only has three legs, but also has a face like a girl. Its eyes are bright and mysterious, which makes people fascinated. ]
[This cat with a human face possesses extraordinary powers. Anyone who looks into its eyes will be attracted by its magic and fall into a state of being unable to extricate themselves. Some people even claim that after looking into the eyes of a calico cat, they will see some strange sights or hear some inexplicable sounds.]
[Then slowly die in the environment of human-faced cats...]
[The calico cat is a cursed cat. Its magic power comes from its hatred for humans. As long as someone can eliminate its hatred, it will lose its magic power and turn back into an ordinary cat.]
Su Yi frowned. In this ghost story book, some of the ghost stories even recorded the countermeasures against calico cats.
But it is too simple to eliminate resentment. So how do we eliminate resentment specifically?
Maybe by the time he figures it out, I'll be dead!
At that time, the human-faced cat directly bewitched him. If it weren't for Yu Wushuang, he would not be alive today.
This is much more charming than that necklace...
"There is also a puppet wearing a kimono that uses its hair to attack..." said Kamiie Heiya.
"Aju Doll, Page 79."
Su Yi flipped through it quickly.
【Aju doll. 】
[A kimono doll that is said to be possessed by a spirit, and whose hair grows automatically. Once upon a time, there was a Mr. Suzuki Eikichi who enshrined a doll of his daughter, Kikuko, who died at the age of three, in Mannenji Temple.]
[The doll's hair began to grow automatically, and the family believed that it was the soul of Kikuko, so they worshipped it more devoutly. ]
[But the good times didn't last long. The puppet didn't seem to be obedient. It made a lot of noise every night, disturbing the practitioners in Wannian Temple.]
[The family begged the abbot, and he finally agreed to keep the temple, but they had to build a small worship room just for Kikuko, and after they left, the room had to be completely closed to avoid disturbing everyone’s practice.]
[As the days passed, Kikuko was still very noisy, but because of the small dark room, no sound from her could be heard.]
[Until one day, Kikuko, who was afraid of the dark, could no longer stand the dark room, and used her hair to kill everyone in Wannian Temple...]
Hiss, this is weird... She really was attacking with her hair.
This book not only contains detailed descriptions of strange stories about people losing their memories, but also some strange stories, that is, descriptions of the abilities of cursed spirits.
If I had these... I would have a slight advantage against the curse master...
Afterwards, Su Yi also turned to [Night Crying], and it was indeed as Yue Cai had said.
Su Yi naturally thought of his own red eyes.
But Shang Jiangping didn't mention it, so Su Yi didn't know whether they knew about his spell.
So he didn't do it in advance. He silently flipped through it roughly, but didn't see any red eyes.
Could it be that this strange story is a bit new?
"When did your father die?"
"Two years ago..."
That was the year before last. As far as Shang Jiangping knows, there was a curse-killing battle two years ago and five years ago.
Then, it is very likely that Shangyue Cai's father died in that battle...
While Su Yi was still thinking,
Without any warning, a voice suddenly sounded in Su Yi's ears.
"Red paper or blue paper..."
Hiss, Su Yi's ears suddenly buzzed and his back shuddered.
No wonder Su Yi's hair stood on end.
It was really too sudden. Even the calmest person would be frightened by a strange sound in his ear in such an environment.
What's more, this is even more beside the ear, as if it was spoken right into Su Yi's ear.
"Answer me quickly!"
Another impatient and strange voice appeared in Su Yi's ears.
Apparently, Shang Jiangping and Shang Yue Cai were also startled by the unexpected sound.
"Don't answer that, you red-caped weirdo! Page 9."
Shangyue Cai immediately told the page number.
And told them not to answer.
Su Yi did not turn around to look. He was not that curious and did not want to get close to him. Instead, he looked carefully at the book in his hand and turned to page 9.
【The weird man in the red cape.】
[Legend has it that the red-caped weirdo usually appears in the school toilets. If someone runs out of toilet paper when using the toilet at night, the red-caped weirdo will appear and ask the person "Do you want red paper or blue paper?" ]
[According to the legend, if you answer "red paper", you will be cut into pieces by the red-caped monster; if you answer "blue paper", your blood will be sucked dry. There are also other versions of the legend that mention that if you answer the same color of paper as the red-caped monster, you will be punished accordingly, such as being skinned if you answer "red paper" and being strangled to death if you answer "blue paper".]
【Response plan, don’t answer any questions. 】
"Red, or blue!" the voice came again.
"Where would the Curse Master be?" Su Yi frowned and looked at the book.
"Unless there are some extremely special long-range curse spirits, the curse master will usually appear next to the curse spirit..." Shangyue Cai replied.
"Just let this thing follow us?" Shang Jiangping didn't look back at each other. The three of them looked straight ahead and squatted in place.
"If he continues to follow us, we will definitely be affected by his emotions and answer his questions accordingly." Shangyue Cai was a little nervous.
That’s right, Su Yi also noticed that as the red-cloaked weirdo asked questions, his heart began to waver a little.
"Can you use a ring?" Su Yi suddenly asked. Her target was Shangyue Cai.
“Hmm…” Shangyue Cai opened her mouth slightly and was stunned.
