Gao Lie was fine, because of his mental strength problem, all he saw were ordinary people. Xu Zhi was miserable. Big or small, the paper man group used no focal length, the ink-painted eyes looked at her at the same time, as if they wanted to examine her to a hole. Not to mention 'it' group also held in their hands either tentacles or maggots or eyeballs or unknown internal organs "delicious" food, in their mouths kept saying eat quickly, eat quickly.
Tu Tri naturally couldn't agree, because according to this rule [If you continuously refuse 'its' food three times, 'its' will become suspicious and will use coercive means to force you to eat.], she had already refused "Father's" and "Mother's" food once, and couldn't refuse again.
But Cao Liet only refused the "Old Man" once, he still had a chance.
Tu Tri glanced at Cao Liet, Cao Liet closed his eyes, fearless in the face of death, "There are only two of us, yet you have so much food, how are we going to finish it all?"
The paper people were stunned, you looked at me, I looked at you, wondering how to recover Gao Lie, then heard Gao Lie say again, "How about this, you guys take out all the food, put it in the yard, we will choose the most delicious food to eat."
Having said that, he looked nervously at the Polluted Object in front of him. Waiting for 'it' to reply.
One second, two seconds... Ten seconds, until a thin layer of cold sweat appeared on Xu Zhi's palm, and the paper people seemed to have finished wondering.
"Okay, you wait."
*
More than ten minutes later, in the largest residential area of the courtyard, hundreds of paper people, carrying disgusting and strange food, gathered there, looking at Xu Zhi and Gao Lie with anticipation and resentment.
The two people's scalps were numb, the paper people's eyes were looking at each other, as if they were seriously commenting on this and that food.
"This steamed bun looks too greasy."
"Hey, the noodles are full."
"Cookies? Potato chips? Food waste."
...
After taking a look at all the food here, Gao Lie walked to the center and said to the paper people, "I don't like any of this food, I don't want to eat it."
"Brat, are you just going to ruin our intentions like this?" A paper figure spoke, it was the same "old man" who wanted to drink brown sugar water yesterday, "Disrespecting the elderly may result in retribution."
"That's right, at such a young age and already so picky, her health must not be good, just like my Zhi'er. Because she didn't eat, she ran away from home. When she comes back, I must properly take care of her." This time, the people who spoke were Xu Zhi's "Father" and "Mother".
"We are reluctant to eat these snacks, specially for you guys. You guys are too ugly." Equally angry were "Nini" and "Little Beauty" 'it' group.
Tu Tri lowered his eyelids, Cao Liet also refused 'it' twice.
The two of them, no matter who, could not refuse.
Next, let's see if she follows the detective rules correctly.
"It's not that I'm picky, these foods are really inedible. Furthermore, you guys didn't take out all the food." Gao Lie's expression turned strange, "You guys are still hiding the good stuff, refusing to let us eat it."
The paper people immediately got angry, "Nonsense!"
"I'm not talking nonsense." The old man was full of energy and loudly said, "Your stomach and intestines, aren't there still hidden food?"
*
These words were said by Tu Tri to Gao Lie. After Gao Lie heard them, he rarely did not agree. He said, the most characteristic of the pollution of drunkenness is to change one's perception, considering the abnormal as normal. Once one accepts the chaotic perception, it is very easy to become a Polluted Being. Therefore, it is best not to say chaotic words.
Tu Tri was also shocked after hearing this. It seemed that this kind of ghostly intoxication existed purely in a mental state. If he did not speak properly and triggered the polluted conditions, then both of them would be finished.
But almost at the same time, Xu Zhi appeared before Hong Zi's eyes again:
[Conceptual construction is not only reflected in the unity of words and actions, but also in the consensus that comes from the heart.]
The tension in Tu Tri's heart immediately loosened.
"Don't worry, just imagine yourself as an actor. You are a good man, but you want to play the role of a scumbag. You can say scumbag things and do scumbag things. But as long as you firmly believe that you are just playing a role. You don't support scumbags and you despise scumbags, that's not a problem."
Gao Liet thought for a moment, "I understand, Mr. Hai Tru."
*
"You guys might have eaten the good stuff first, but left behind some of the bad food for us." Gao Lie said while repeating it in his heart, this was just a line, "So the best method is to take the food you guys ate, pull it out, spit it out, and let us see."
After saying that, he felt his mind was a bit hazy, and he frantically recited "This is just a line, it's not something I understand" dozens of times before he recovered.
"Mr. Hai Tru, you don't look down on me." After exclaiming, he looked towards the Polluted Objects in front of him, "What I said makes sense."
"Makes sense." The paper people nodded excitedly.
"We can prove it to you."
"But I hope you don't want to ruin our intentions again."
"We just wanted to invite you to eat something."

Gao Liet wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "Then, you guys go back and take out the food, spit it out, and put it back together. We'll wait for you here."
The paper man group said "well you guys must wait for us" and immediately dispersed and left.
"Hurry up!" All the paper people in front of him returned to their homes. Xu Zhi pulled Gao Lie and ran towards a nearby building.
On the roof of that old house, there was a small figure standing motionless at the edge of the water tank.
*
A few minutes later, there was a pile of old rooftops.
A humanoid figure stood quietly at the edge of the water tank. In Gao Lie's eyes, this was a normal seven or eight year old boy, but in Xu Zhi's eyes, he was a paper man.
"This is a ghost drug?" Gao Lie asked curiously, "It looks no different from other Polluted Things."
"It's not the looks, it's the behavior." Tu Tri said.
According to the rule [Don't eat the food 'it' gives you. Otherwise you will become 'it's' group's kind], Xu Zhi judged that the main method of pollution here was to intimidate her. So just now all the paper people gathered in the yard, forcing her and Gao Lie to eat the strange food, but only this little paper person, also known as "Xiao Yong" was not there.
Combining yesterday's hide and seek moment, "Xiao Mei" said "Xiao Yong" guarded the rooftop water tank, refusing to come down to play with them. Also combining the rule [Before there was no complete irreversibility, 'it' still retained some of its original characteristics], Xu Zhi judged that "Xiao Yong" was either completely contaminated, or was drunk on itself.
Determined that "Xiao Yong" was a drunkard, the rest came from high intelligence.
Gao Lie told Xu Zhi that the formation of this polluted area took a very short time, from noon yesterday to afternoon, which was also when Xu Zhi took a nap.
Wanting to infect more than a hundred residents of this place in such a short period of time, and through food, other than using water to drink, Xu Zhi finally couldn't think of any other method.
But "Little Brave", just happened to be hovering near each pile of old water tanks.
"Let's go." Tu Tri said to Cao Liet.
Gao Lie was like an arrow leaving the bowstring, suddenly shooting towards "Xiao Dung" in front.
"Big brother, you are thirsty, drink some..." Before "Little Dung" could finish speaking, Gao Lie grabbed 'its' arm, and according to the dance posture he learned from Xu Zhi last night, he twisted it crazily.
From the idea, according to the rule: [Imitating 'it' group's movements and postures, can temporarily deceive 'it' group. However, once imitating for a certain period of time, will be assimilated by 'it' group, slowly turning into 'it' group.]
If you and the high-ranking official make a paper man with difficult movements, you can reverse the pollution. By doing this, making the drunken ghost itself dance, might you also be able to weaken 'its' power?
Sure enough, "Little Brave" was stunned, his eyes unfocused as he glared at the boss. Wanting to invite the nobles to drink water, the words were all in his mouth, unable to come out.
*
At the same time, the paper people living in the residential area returned home. They all went into the bathroom and urinated on each other.
Gradually, their eyes turned from dull to lively, and their whole body became confused.
"What? What am I doing? Why do I have to use the sink to catch my own vomit?"
"Oh my god, why didn't I poop in the toilet, but instead I pooped neatly in the bowl of soup."
As their thinking returned to normal, their bodies also slowly became flexible.
*
The water tank side, "Little Brave" also sensed that the Polluted Things were no longer spraying, gradually getting rid of the infection. 'It' threw up a loud bang, crying out loudly, wanting to run away. Tu Tri hurriedly closed the door leading to the upper courtyard.
The "little brave" scattered on the roof, his whole body like a balloon, shrinking smaller and smaller. Finally, he turned into a paper puppet about half a meter in size.
"Effective!" Xu Zhi was overjoyed. Based on this, [no need to finish eating the food that 'it' gives you. Otherwise, you will become like 'it'.], Xu Zhi speculated that if the paper people spit out food, it would be possible to a certain extent to return to normal and reverse the pollution. Thus weakening the demon's power.
So she acted as a noble to persuade the paper people, taking the food in the stomachs of the two of them that wanted to eat the paper people as a substitute, and making the paper people take out the food after eating and spit it out.
Sure enough, for their prestige, the paper men tried their best.
Tu Tri shook her head, throwing the heavy taste associations out of her mind. She looked at this screaming little paper puppet in surprise, was this a drunken ghost, so evil and so strange.
"Mr. Hai Zhu, you are really amazing! Without using any ritual or special item, you can force the ghost to become almost silent." Gao Lie excitedly waved his arms and legs, "Quickly subdue 'it'."
"What is surrender?" Tu Tri said in confusion.
"Subduing is using a ritual, making the demon completely lose its activity, turning it into a silent state is also the characteristic of the item." Gao Lie was surprised, this is basic common sense. But immediately he reacted, his face reddened, "I understand, if you don't want me to see you using a ritual, I will avoid it."
"I'll go now, I promise not to peek!"
Looking at his quickly departing figure, Tu Tri fell into silence.
She will be the devil
