If the intention was to frame Jiang Xiao, why not take the other chosen ones with him?
In any case, when it comes to ghost stories, there is no essential difference between one person entering a ghost story and a hundred people entering a ghost story.
Chapter 444 Pennywise
Because of the uncertainty of the unknown, Jiang Xiao did not bring Sun Wei or Bai Yi with him.
"Don't worry, I'll go see what's going on. It shouldn't be a big problem."
After saying that, Jiang Xiao entered the white space.
"Hey, what's going on? Are you targeting me?"
A strange rule: [It's not that I'm targeting you, it's that someone paid a price to have me come and take action against you.]
ha?
What do you mean?
Strange Tales of Rules: [Someone sacrificed a large amount of blood and magical artifacts to me, and established a communication channel with me, asking me to find you to help them.]
The more Jiang Xiao explained the ghost story, the more dizzy he became.
What?
After a detailed explanation, Jiang Xiao finally understood what was going on.
The strange tales of rules should be high above, detached from worldly affairs.
However, nothing in this world is absolute.
Someone can attract her attention by offering a large number of items that the ghost stories like, thereby making some deals.
"Could I interpret you as Wong Tai Sin? That humans can ask you for help by making offerings?"
Strange Tales of Rules: [?]
Strange Tales of Rules: [Why didn't you use me as an example, like Guanyin Bodhisattva or something?]
"Because I feel you're flirtatious, like a fox."
Strange Tales of Rules: [?]
Those words just made my head spin.
"No, they're begging you. It's not right for you to ask me to go and help them."
The uncanny rule: [First, I am very fair and won't act rashly; second, they know this, which is why they specifically named you to go over.]
ha?
Referring to me by name means you know me, right?
Or is it someone you know?
Jiang Xiao racked his brains but still couldn't guess who it was.
"Could it be Little Flower from Sunset Village? Is there a problem between her and Wang Dayong? That shouldn't be the case, Brother Dayong is such a coward. Could it be Steel Egg? Was he drained dry by the Juice Queen? But that's not right, where would Steel Egg get something to sacrifice? He's probably only worth his underwear."
A strange rule: [Don't guess, you'll never guess, it's Yang Tao, or rather, it's Du Lala.]
Oh!
is her!
Jiang Xiao remembered that Yang Tao, the gold digger, even gave him a deep massage service.
Of course, this is under the condition that she has lost her memory. In reality, she is a staff member of the Bureau of Mysteries, Du Lala.
The artifact that separated souls was something she willingly gave him, and it was thanks to it that he was able to rescue Bai Yi.
In general, we have some acquaintance, but not much.
"Yes, that's right. Only official forces like this can afford to spend so much money on [sacrifices] for ghost stories."
its not right!
Jiang Xiao doesn't know if there are any experts in this strange management bureau.
But there must be a great many of these magical artifacts, and they must have already mastered how to use a considerable number of them.
For example, the strange artifact he once saw that had separated from its soul.
It can forcibly enter a person's dream and eliminate their extra personalities.
If this were on Earth, it would definitely be a miracle cure for schizophrenia!
What problem have they encountered that they can't solve and need to ask me for help?
Before Jiang Xiao could ask any questions, a wave of dizziness washed over him, and he found himself in the world of supernatural tales.
The Strange Tale of Rules: [This strange tale wasn't given to you by me, so you'll have to negotiate the goals and rewards with them yourself. As for the rest of the Chosen Ones on your Blue Star, aren't you going to celebrate the Spring Festival? Let them rest.]
Jiang Xiao: I'll just say @#-￥&!
You might as well not have said that last sentence; it's just a way of messing with people, isn't it?
But then again, rewarding myself by discussing things with that weird management bureau seems pretty good, huh?
Since they can afford to sacrifice themselves for the ghost stories, it means they must still have a lot of strange artifacts in their possession.
When the time comes, I can just ask for two to exchange for Shi Shi, and then ask for a few more handy ones for self-defense. Wouldn't that be wonderful?
open one's eyes.
They discovered that their landing spot was an unremarkable place at the foot of a mountain.
But the seemingly perfectly sealed rock suddenly split open, revealing a passageway large enough for a SUV to pass through.
"Brother Jiang Xiao, thank you so much for your help this time. Please come in."
Since he was already there, he figured he might as well make the best of it and there was nothing to be afraid of. Jiang Xiao stepped into the pitch-black cave.
“Stop, Brother Jiang Xiao, if you go any further, your life will come to an end.”
Ok?
Should we continue forward?
'Click click click--'
A series of dense but very quiet mechanical sounds rang out, and a downward passage appeared out of thin air on the stone wall to the right of the two people.
How can we be cautious?
Who would have thought there was a cave within a cave?
"Brother Jiang Xiao, please?"
"What exactly did you bring me here for?"
As they entered the underground elevator, Jiang Xiao couldn't help but ask questions.
"This is the Strange Research Institute, one of the most mysterious and highest-level places in our Sihai Province. We mainly want to ask you to help us solve Project No. 77, [Pennywise]."
Du Lala didn't directly state what the mission was. She felt somewhat sorry for Jiang Xiao, having asked him to help her solve her problems for no reason.
However, Jiang Xiao was still in a relatively good mood.
Even though Du Lala hadn't told him what the mission was yet, he wasn't in a hurry; instead, he was all smiles.
The thought of being able to extort... no, do business with someone later made him feel incredibly happy.
But the Dragon Kingdom's live stream room exploded!
Which Pennywise?
Don't tell me it's that Pennywise I know?
Holy crap! No way, the illusion has become reality?!
[Heh, if Yan Chixia can appear, then it's not surprising that Pennywise is too, is it?]
Some people in China may recognize this name, but almost all foreigners recognize it!
Unfortunately, Jiang Xiao, the person involved, did not know him.
He is now like a foreigner encountering the Tanqing River, at a natural disadvantage in terms of information.
The elevator continued descending for a long time; Jiang Xiao felt it stopped at least a thousand meters underground.
"here."
Jiang Xiao's eyes widened as he stepped out of the elevator.
It was not the kind of secluded, dark, and damp secret base I had imagined.
The area was covered by a bright white light, and the space above and below him was made of a silvery-white metallic material that he did not recognize.
The floor-to-ceiling windows in the center of the hall bring in bright natural light, while also reflecting off the high-tech instruments and equipment.
Various electronic circuits run across the walls, and numerous monitors display a variety of numbers, charts, and curves. The entire room is filled with screens of all sizes and exquisite control panels.
People dressed in simple yet futuristic silver clothing were walking around inside, busy with their work.
The technological level here far surpasses that of Earth!
