Chapter 770 The post office with lights out(1/2)
From the mouth of this man named Wanxing, Yang Jian roughly understood what the messenger was about, and it was not very different from what he expected.
First of all, whether it is Wanxing, the group of Li Yue and others who appeared in his hometown, or even a person named Zhang Tao who was investigated before, they are all messengers. This can be confirmed. However, in
Before they became messengers, they were ordinary people.
The reason why I was chosen to be the messenger was because of an unexpected letter.
An unsigned, unsealed yellow paper envelope.
Everyone became a messenger after opening the letter, and then arrived at the post office in an incomprehensible way.
After entering the post office, their task is to deliver letters.
There is no regularity in the appearance of letters in the post office, but as long as they appear, these messengers will be brought into the post office and then deliver the letters to a designated location within a specified time.
The task is simple.
It's as simple as an ordinary courier, just receive the express and deliver it, and the task is completed.
However, this seemingly simple task hides many terrible things, as well as some rules that are not clearly reminded.
For example, you cannot tear up letters, otherwise you will be attacked by evil spirits.
For the messenger, being attacked by a ghost once is fatal, but if he can withstand that attack, it will be equivalent to rejecting the mission of delivering the message. However, this behavior of tearing up the letter cannot be repeated, otherwise the ghost will appear.
It will be more terrifying each time.
Yang Jian met Li Yue and his group when he was in his hometown. He tore up a letter once, which was equivalent to indirectly helping Li Yue and others complete a letter delivery mission. However, the ghost he attracted had already invaded one of them.
.
Secondly, there is a time limit for delivering letters. If the letter is not delivered within the specified time, all the messengers on this floor will die.
Without exception.
In other words, if you are unable to complete the task of delivering the letter, you can only choose to tear up the letter.
"How many times have you sent letters?" Yang Jian asked coldly.
Wan Xing was still lying on the ground, with Sun Rui pressing his chest with a golden cane. He wiped the blood on his face: "I delivered twice, and I will deliver the third time soon, so I came here."
I was waiting for the letter to appear in the post office. The woman named Qian Rong appeared in the post office with me at the beginning, but almost all the people in the same batch were dead. The seven rooms were not full, but there was still one person.
"
"I don't know his name. I only know that he lives in Room No. 7."
"There are only three of you on the first floor?" Yang Jian frowned.
"Everyone else who delivered the message died last time. According to normal rules, new people should join now... to supplement the dead messengers." Wan Xing said.
Sun Rui said at this moment: "There are only three of you in the whole building? I don't believe it. What's going on upstairs?"
"There is also a messenger upstairs. After delivering the letter three times, you will appear on the second floor next time and become the messenger on the second floor. In the same way, the messenger on the second floor will go to the third floor after delivering the letter three times, and so on."
Wan Xing's eyes moved: "I've also heard this from other people. As for whether it's true, I'm not sure."
He didn't dare to speak so harshly, lest he think he was deceiving them and be killed in a daze.
"I delivered the letter three times to the next floor. There are five floors in the building. There are seven people on each floor. The seven people should be a team."
Yang Jian had a thoughtful look on his face: "Is it similar to the selection mechanism? Eliminate useless messengers, retain the elite, and select through layers of competition. The messengers who finally reach the fifth floor must be top-notch in mind and brains."
"If you don't have strong skills, you won't be able to carry out more than a dozen letter delivery tasks."
Sun Rui asked again at this moment: "What's the benefit of going upstairs?"
"I, I don't know, I only know that the delivery time is different on each floor. I only know that the higher the level of the messenger, the longer it takes to deliver the letter, and the longer the time between tasks, so the safer you are.
, and at the same time, you can have a longer safety period.”
Wan Xing continued: "Like me, there is usually a letter delivery mission about once a week."
"The number of missing people does not match the frequency of deaths." Sun Rui frowned.
What he was investigating was that about nine or ten people would go missing in Dahan City every day, and it happened every day. If a letter was sent once every seven days, it stands to reason that a group of people would die within seven days at the very least, and it would not necessarily mean that the group would be wiped out every time.
, some people can survive anyway.
"That's all I know for the time being. I'm really not sure about the other information. If you go upstairs, the messenger upstairs will definitely know more information." Wan Xing added.
Sun Rui hit his chest so hard that he almost broke his ribs: "Haha, you want to trick us into going upstairs so that you can let go, right? You have a lot of thoughts, but we and you trash
It’s different, you are just ordinary people who are unlucky, we are professionals and we deal with these ghost things.”
"The upstairs we are seeing is not an upstairs in the traditional sense. It is a twisted ghost realm." Yang Jian raised his head and looked upstairs.
His ghostly eyes are peeping.
As a result, the perspective in the ghost eye is pitch black, shrouded in darkness. There is no second floor, third floor, fourth floor, or fifth floor at all. Those are all illusions, or these floors do not exist where you see them.
In another supernatural space.
Similar to...a ghost realm within a ghost realm.
Layers are superimposed, interlaced and twisted.
Yang Jian looked a little solemn. If this was the case, he wouldn't dare to invade casually, because the person who invaded might not be on the second or third floor, but would be lost directly in the ghost realm.
So the safest way is to be pulled to the second floor on your own.
"The people who built this ghost post office are definitely not simple. They have blocked all the loopholes, and this courier selection mechanism must have some purpose. Otherwise, it would be impossible to let the couriers go upstairs one by one. It's just
I'm curious, is there a messenger on the fifth floor?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Yang Jian looked at the highest floor.
There is no doubt that the messenger on that floor is the person closest to the secret of this ghost post office.
The knocker fell to his death from the fifth floor before he was alive.
Does this mean that the knocker was a messenger on the fifth floor during his lifetime?
"We have to find a way to go to the fifth floor of this building to take a look." Yang Jian made this decision in his heart.
But then his doubts arose.
Ghost Eye's Ghost Realm cannot forcefully invade the fifth floor of the post office, so what method should be used to get up there?
Delivering a letter?
Do not make jokes.
If you send a letter within seven days, when should it be delivered?
Yang Jian didn't want to be a wage earner. He had to work hard for half a year or a year, and then he sent more than a dozen letters and went upstairs slowly.
"Captain Yang, I think this building is not that simple. I can feel that there is a very scary ghost in a certain room in this building." At this time, Li Yang came over, his face was very heavy.
said.
"Huh?" Yang Jian immediately came back to his senses: "Are you sure?"
Li Yang said: "There is no mistake. I have a sense of what is behind the door. It's just that this place is very weird. I was affected, so I can't tell the location clearly, but I can still be sure that there is a certain room upstairs.
There must be a powerful ghost inside, and it definitely cannot be an ordinary living messenger."
Sun Rui narrowed his eyes: "So, in the thirty-five rooms, a ghost has already sneaked in? This is interesting. The messenger and the ghost are delivering the message together. How can this be fun? Captain Yang, what do you think?"
"No, that's impossible."
Suddenly, Wan Xing became excited: "This room is for messengers. When a person dies, the room will be emptied and restored to its original state. It is impossible for a ghost to sneak in. If there is a ghost, the room will be emptied."
At the same time, the ghost will disappear and leave with it, so the room is the safest place."
"Oh, your messenger on this floor also knows so clearly?" Sun Rui looked at it and said, "You still said you didn't hide it?"
"No, no, no, don't get me wrong. I didn't want to hide it. This is the message sent by the messenger upstairs. Everyone must have passed it. It is an iron rule and there will be no mistake." Wan Xing
said.
Yang Jian said calmly: "Maybe you are right, but this is based on the normal operation of the post office, but what if this place is out of control? There are loopholes in some places, and it is not impossible to fool around.
Besides, after being exposed to the supernatural, you are still so naive and believe in this ghost place."
"The ghost post office itself is unreasonable, and the rules and iron laws it follows are nothing more than a trick to deceive itself and others."
"It makes sense. If you need to tear open the envelope to enter here and become a messenger, then our appearance has broken this rule." Sun Rui nodded and said: "Nothing in this ghost place is worth believing. The more you believe, the faster you die.
."
Yang Jian agreed with him.
Do you believe in the rules of a supernatural place?
This reminded him of human skin and ghost closets.
There are similar rules. The human skin tells the truth, but it hides terrible traps. The trading rules of the ghost closet prevent traders from getting rid of the curse.
Nothing involving the supernatural can be so pure and harmless.
"But it's not easy for the three of us to handle this ghost place. Let's blow it up? Maybe the ghost in this building will escape, but if we leave it alone, this place will inevitably continue to get out of control, and I will have to take over again.
, think about it, it’s really troublesome.”
