Chapter 95 Good news, all paths to survival!
"I just looked at a house. What are you doing here? Looking for that house you mentioned?"
Bai Hui asked.
"That one—we are indeed looking for it, but it seems to be hidden quite well."
Li Youmo said, "I've asked quite a few of the mortgage slaves around here, and they've all kept quiet. Some of them even cursed at me."
"Then why didn't you smash them?" Bai Hui asked back.
"What's the point of smashing them?" Li Youmo helplessly spread his hands: "Mortgage slaves are a myth. Our hearts can certainly cause some damage to them, but not enough to kill them."
Moreover, these supernatural tales are practically immortal unless you target their core rules; attacking them is a waste of time.
After a pause, Li Youmo continued, "That's why I chased after those two. One reason is to continue the investigation, and the other is because I saw that they seemed to be corrupted. Instead of checking the house, they were just fighting aimlessly downstairs, wasting their energy. We finally came all this way, what are they busy doing here?"
I'll help them out, and also give myself some practical experience with this "love headbutt."
"I see." Bai Hui nodded.
Li Youmo asked again, "So, Brother Hui, what happened with that apartment you were looking at before? Did you not like it, or what?"
"That old apartment—"
Bai Hui briefly recounted his previous experience, and then said, "Feng Jue is inside trying to figure things out, so I'm coming out first."
However, I don't think your idea is entirely correct—this neighborhood is full of bizarre, illegally constructed houses, and those burdened with mortgages have worked incredibly hard to keep up with rising property prices.
Let's call it "effort" for now.
In short, it was carefully renovated and arranged.
Therefore, they are very distressed by even the slightest damage.
Based on this, we can grasp them to a certain extent.
Li Youyan raised an eyebrow: "That's a novel idea!"
Bai Hui said, "If these ghost stories simply followed the rules, that would be fine, but I've discovered they seem to possess a certain degree of independent thought—the rules of these ghost stories can be seen as their thought process and logic."
In that case, it's still possible to make use of it a little.
Li Youmo exclaimed, "Wow, Brother Hui! I've never thought of this approach before—although the risk is a bit high, following your logic, the potential gains seem quite substantial."
"Right?"
Bai Hui curled the corners of his mouth: "By the way, is there a mortality rate in this kind of competition?"
I heard from those mortgage slaves that even if someone dies in their house, how can the property value still rise?
That's right.
Li Youmo nodded: "However, deaths occurring under these circumstances can only be considered as the accumulation of death factors."
This will increase the probability that martial artists themselves will be dehumanized, and will inexplicably explode someday in the future.
Even if the truth is revealed, some supernatural tales will still find a way in, and driven by the rules, they will continue to live as that person.
After a slight hesitation, Li Youmo said, "Brother Hui, you've heard about dead people raising housing prices—your understanding must be quite distorted, right?"
"More or less." Bai Hui nodded: "I'm trying to understand the strange logic of mortgage slaves, to see if I can figure anything out."
""
"————6"
Li Youmo gave a thumbs up: "You're way crazier than me!"
"You flatter me, you flatter me—"
The two then embarked on their exploration together.
This league has attracted the best of the best from each school's cohort. These people are the most ambitious, and they will naturally want to show off their skills once they arrive.
They knew roughly what level the students at their school were at, so it became their first choice.
This mentality coincides with the needs of the mortgage slaves in Huimin Community. Some people even fight over the right to view the house, which indirectly proves the value of their mortgages!
Therefore, there will indeed be more battles at the beginning.
But this won't last forever; a strong will also mean a more active inner demon.
These students quickly realize something is wrong and then begin their strategy for dealing with mortgage slaves.
Even so, a number of people have already been eliminated.
Bai Hui listened intently, then said to Li Youmo, "Now, in our year, all the students from various schools combined are only fifty-two people left."
The others were eliminated.
The house you wanted is still nowhere to be found.
"I see. — Let's see. It would be great if we could find one, but it's not my problem if we can't."
Li Youmo said nonchalantly, "Anyway, I still have to dispel the evil spirit after this league ends. Even if I get it, there's no danger at school, and I won't need it for a while."
Bai Hui raised an eyebrow: "Speaking of which, is it that your heart seems to grow noticeably stronger every time it disperses and then coalesces again?"
"That's right." Li Youmo nodded and said, "According to my estimation, if we condense it again next time, the Heart Evil Value should be able to break through '5'."
The two chatted and soon arrived at the entrance of Unit 2, Building 13.
The lowly mortgage slaves vied to invite the two to view the apartment, only to be captivated by its interior design, unable to escape its allure, thus absorbing their youthful spirit and boundless imagination.
The two ignored this and entered the building, heading upstairs with a clear objective.
What feelings are there in this building?
"Arriving at the eighth floor, room 815," the mortgage slave enthusiastically invited, "You two are here to see the apartment? My home has a minimalist style, and the conditions for obtaining it are not difficult. As long as you go in and successfully come out, you can get my apartment bag!"
There's already a little girl inside. Spaces are limited, first come, first served!
Bai Hui and his companion exchanged a glance.
This is the first mortgage slave they've encountered who directly states the conditions for obtaining the property.
"Let's take a look first."
As Bai Hui spoke, he immediately entered.
The long-tongued parrots he brought have almost finished exploring this area, and then they will know whether the bag that Li Youmo is looking for is here or not.
This place was not as complicated as the one Feng Jue was in; in fact, it was quite simple.
The interior was completely empty, with no furnishings whatsoever.
As soon as the two entered, they appeared directly in the center of the room. The entire room was an extremely regular hexagon, with an open door on each side.
From each door, one can see the outside world.
He Qing was right there, standing motionless in the center, practicing his stance training, silently restraining and resisting.
"Why are you here?" He Qing was quite surprised to see Bai Hui and the other person, and then hurriedly said, "There's something wrong with this apartment! It looks simple, but it actually hides a mystery. It's like there's a formation, and you have to go through the 'life gate' to get out!"
Otherwise, we'll just keep coming back here!
Li Youmo asked curiously, "How long have you been here? Haven't you found the Gate of Life yet?"
"You really are Li Youye—"
He Qing's expression was somewhat complicated. She had suspected it before, but the mask Li Youmo wore had a certain cognitive distortion effect, so He Qing only suspected it until now.
She didn't linger on that topic for long, and instead said, "Before I came in, I heard other homeowners commenting on this apartment. They said that in order to raise property prices, the place underwent extensive renovations, which made it more and more chaotic. Eventually, something went wrong, and it ended up looking like it is now."
That's why it "gave up its act" and directly gave the acquisition conditions!
Upon hearing this, I couldn't resist and came in.
As it turns out, I did find the exit gates, or rather—every single door here is an exit gate; that mortgage slave never even considered hiding them!
"Then why don't you go out?"
Bai Hui also asked.
"Because—we can't get out!"
Why?
"Because all the gates of life must be traversed together!" He Qing said earnestly, "I can't pass through the Six Doors alone. Aside from dismemberment, I can't think of any other way. We can only remain in this stalemate—"
Now you're trapped too!
"???"
