Chapter 38 Exorcism
This life is really too frustrating.
Gu Bin stood at the door of a gun shop. The merchant was supposed to be at the 315 party. The 30 bullets were sold for a total of 150t. When the offer was presented to Gu Bin, he even wanted to take out a machete and remove the shopkeeper in front of him.
Because the "edge" strictly controls the inflow of real currency, the currency that everyone and every account can exchange from reality every day is floating, and this floating value is determined based on the overall currency consumption in the game, so so far, Gu Bin has almost no legendary tyrants.
Of course, this may also be related to the Hell Zone itself.
On the forum, players who dare to enter the hell zone are called warriors, and these poor "warriors" tend to call themselves beggars.
Gu Bin and Xu Qing were surprised to find that players had already sent recruitment information to explore the haunted house they had been to before. After their first visit, they were also discovered by other players and began to attract the attention of players.
For this reason, the two went to the police station in the residential area and found the nearest case file, and thus determined Gu Bin's conjecture.
The "edge" game environment is indeed "live".
In a game, if you want to greatly improve players' sense of accomplishment, the best way is to make what they do be reflected in the most direct and three-dimensional way. The active environment is undoubtedly a very good choice. A small decision by players may trigger a huge change in the game itself, just like the legendary butterfly effect.
The murder in that house happened seven days ago. Before that, it was quite normal for the NPCs that lived in it. Until something happened, players even witnessed the NPCs in the police station.
The two of them struggled for a long time and finally got some information about the family.
The male owner was named Ja Rith. The rifle and flesh-picking knife that Gu Bin and the other one obtained came from him, and the female owner was called Lisa.
What confused Gu Bin was the girl's name. He searched there for a long time until the police officers in the police station issued an order to expel the guest, and he still couldn't find any information about the girl.
"Is it a black household?" Gu Bin guessed.
After studying for a long time, he still temporarily put down this information. After all, neither himself nor Xu Qing would go to the ghost house again in a short period of time. After all, neither of them had the ability to deal with the ghost. Moreover, the ghost house was almost "contracted" to some player teams, and there might be conflicts in the past directly. Therefore, Gu Bin chose not to worry about the matter. He neither interfered nor provided any strategy information to those players, so he let them explore it by themselves.
The two added friends to each other to facilitate contact, and then Xu Qing left first. He planned to join an ordinary player team and go to the wild to explore to see if he could find anything interesting.
Gu Bin took off his pastor's robe, wore the outfit that the system brought, put on a cross, and came to the church he had been to before.
This is a small church, and today is not Sunday, so it seems empty.
Old Molin seemed very happy to see Gu Bin visit. Although Gu Bin was his archaeological apprentice, not a student of his clergy, and he was not pious, he was happy to see Gu Bin make some changes.
This is also the reason why Gu Bin wanted to take off his priest robe. The NPCs in this game are no different from those of living people. They have their own personalities and their own ways of doing things. These things are all achieved by super high artificial intelligence, so he must treat these NPCs in the way of treating a normal person. Since he is not a Christian, he should naturally not wear a priest robe in front of the old priest to avoid making him angry.
Gu Bin planned to try the plot of the "Exorcist" movie he had encountered before. For this reason, he found the movie again and watched it carefully.
Gu Bin, who has two-level long-range weapons mastered and equipped with "Jajith's old-fashioned rifle", has both increased his equipment score and strength score.
In full armed state, Gu Bin's equipment score reached 42 and his strength score reached 41 points, which is already a very good level among the player group, and is enough to compete with many old players.
Because he can copy props through "memory manifestation" and still has a talisman that belongs to the supernatural category, Gu Bin also has a two-point grasp of the plot of "exorcism".
"You are here." Old Molin smiled and welcomed Gu Bin to the church. The two found a seat to sit down. Old Molin said: "Your study should have ended yesterday. Is there anything wrong with coming here today?"
As soon as he heard this, Gu Bin felt at ease and replied politely: "Teacher, I want to learn more about that demon."
Seeing Old Molin staring at him in confusion, Gu Bin hurriedly explained: "I went back and searched a lot of information, but I didn't find any information about this demon called Pa Jian, which is very uneasy."
The plot of the movie "Exorcist" is the source of the demon statue called "pazu". The screenwriter and director omitted or concealed a lot of information in the transition of the plot. This is something that Gu Bin has always felt strange. From the fact that the demon statue was excavated to the later innocent little girl being possessed because of playing the game of "Spirituals", there is no direct connection between the whole. Why was it possessed and why it was possessed? There is no explanation in the plot.
As for the game of winning spirits, Gu Bin himself has some understanding. The most famous ones are the Eastern Pen Immortal, the Disc Immortal, the Western Bloody Mary, the Mirror Immortal, and the Four-corner Game that requires four people to play together, etc. However, this kind of thing is mostly groundless. For Gu Bin, it is in the category of believing if you don’t believe it, but not believing if you don’t.
In the original plot of "Exorcist", a little girl in a single-parent family was possessed by a demon because of playing the game of "Shooting". As the disease worsened, her body gradually showed many supernatural phenomena. For example, because of physical struggle, the bed would leave the ground and float up when she fell asleep. Her strength was amazing. When it was serious later, her face was distorted and she could even climb on the ceiling. The most horrible scene in the movie was that the little girl sat on the bed and then...
Turned his neck 180°.
It was this scene that when the movie was first released, it successfully scared a row of viewers.
It has to be said that the director has a very good grasp of the audience's psychology. This terrifying and weird scene is mentally polluted. Gu Bin was so scared that something was wrong all over when he first watched it.
The ending of the movie also made Gu Bin feel very puzzled. In the original plot, two priests responsible for exorcism died together with the demon. The old priest died of heart failure, which seemed to have no direct relationship with the demon. The young priest allowed the demon to be attached to him, and then took advantage of his rationality to jump off the building to commit suicide and die together with the demon.
This is very unreasonable, and even a bit like a slight start. How could an existence beyond physics be solved by such a simple way? Gu Bin is quite puzzled about this.
So before completely intervening in the plot, Gu Bin must do some preparations, and uncertain things will always make him feel uneasy.
"I said, I don't know." The old man sighed helplessly and said, "I have no record of it...including those who worship it, nor do I know the origin of Pad. I will know him, or during an exorcist activity a long time ago."
"It was a boy who suddenly fell seriously ill one day." Knowing that the old man started to say important things, Gu Bin stopped talking, silently opened the system memorandum, and began to sort out the information mentioned by Father Molin.
Old Molin said: "His skin was dry and bleed, his lips were bleeding, and his body was inconsistently illustrious. He was so strong that he even hurt the doctor who was responsible for taking care of him."
"After trying various ways, the doctors gave up on him, so his mother found me and asked me to pray for him."
"Then?" Gu Bin rubbed the cross on his chest with his hand and asked.
The priest's expression was very painful, he said, "I presided over the exorcism ceremony for him, and his symptoms seemed to have improved. I also, however, the next day, the boy's condition further deteriorated, his body twisted, and felt like a seriously deformed corpse, with green juice all over his body, and even the gums began to be exposed, and then, through his mouth, the demon told me that he was still there."
Although this incident did not happen in front of him, Gu Bin still got goosebumps. The scene described by the old priest was so strange that it made people feel uncomfortable all over.
"It took me two days to read more than a thousand records about exorcism... and made a necklace and brought it to the boy with a try."
A strange look flashed in Old Morin's eyes, "It succeeded and was very effective. The strange evil spirit in the boy's body was driven away, but... before it left, he told me that it was called Pa Jian, and the patterns that appeared on the boy before were exactly the same as the statue."
As he said that, the priest raised his hand and pointed to the cross hanging on Gubin's chest and said, "It's it. I don't know how useful it will be after the first time, but for the sake of insurance, I'll bring it to you."
After saying that, he stood up and said, "Since you are here, let's go with me and we'll visit a friend."
Although I had guessed the answer in my heart, I still asked who it was.
The old priest smiled and said, "He is a psychiatrist, and he is also a priest... You should learn from him."
Hearing this sentence, Gu Bin felt completely confident.
Chapter completed!
