A scholar’s ​​path to becoming a god

There was silence in the room, and Gu Xingzhou gave Lu Xingjue a cold look.

Sheng Zhiyu said: "I think the key point is the eyes. When the ghost came close to me, I saw that there were no eyeballs in her eye sockets. Now that the eyeballs have been found, what we are looking for this time may be the entire head."

"Then what is she bowing for?" Lu Xingjue asked lightly.

Sheng Zhiyu frowned, she really couldn't figure this out.

"No matter what, we can't stay in this room anymore." Ruan Lu said, "Sheng Zhiyu, you should go to my room to sleep."

Chu Muyan said coolly: "That's not necessarily the case. Last time, it was Ning Zekai's room that saw the ghost. This time, it was Zhizhi's room. It might be your room next."

"You can keep your mouth shut if you don't know how to speak." Ruan Lu said angrily.

Sheng Zhiyu said: "I think that if a ghost appears once, it will not appear again. But I can't figure out what the prompt is this time?"

Gu Xingzhou said: "The last hint of the ghost's appearance was not very obvious. It depends on how Mary will react tomorrow."

Sheng Zhiyu stopped worrying and picked up the pillow: "Although I know that the ghost will not appear, it is still quite shadowy to sleep here tonight. I will change the room."

"Go to my room and sleep." Gu Xingzhou said, "I'll sleep here."

"Aren't you afraid of ghosts?" Sheng Zhiyu raised his eyebrows.

Gu Xingzhou said calmly: "The thing I'm not afraid of the most is ghosts."

Sheng Zhiyu remembered that the Gu family was a Taoist family and that their job might be to catch ghosts, so he no longer stopped him.

Ruan Lu also picked up the pillow: "I'll go with you!"

Sheng Zhiyu and Ruan Lu had a good sleep after changing rooms, and woke up refreshed early in the morning.

Mary had already prepared breakfast and looked at the players taking their seats with a smile.

"Senior brother, did you sleep well last night?" Sheng Zhiyu asked in a low voice.

Gu Xingzhou nodded: "It just has a pungent peach smell."

Ruan Lu snorted coldly: "It's so offensive. It's really tasteless."

Although she didn't know anything about Sheng Zhiyu and Gu Xingzhou, anyone with a discerning eye could see that they were very close.

As a result, she didn't even like looking after Gu Xingzhou, and completely forgot that she had been infatuated with him.

This time there was still a rectangular covered box on the dining table. When the lid was opened, Sheng Zhiyu saw a cooked corpse.

If that's all, it's nothing special. What was horrifying was that this corpse turned out to be a two-faced man. Where the back of the head should have been, there was also a human face.

"Are you sure this kind of thing won't mutate if you eat it?" Xiang Junyao looked very unhappy.

She had tolerated the food she had eaten before, and it was not unappetizing for such a deformed person.

"No, Master, it tastes very good." Mary said.

Sheng Zhiyu felt that this time it was not prompted by taste recognition, so he did not move his chopsticks.

Because the ingredients were so disgusting, she really couldn't eat them.

If they don't eat, other players still have to eat, otherwise they will be too hungry to complete the task.

Xiang Junyao secretly swore in his heart that after returning, he must practice diligently and quickly build a foundation.

After the meal was finished, no one noticed any unusual taste.

Sheng Zhiyu sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room and thought hard. He really couldn't figure out what the two-faced man was suggesting.

And there is no connection with the female ghost who bowed in the middle of the night yesterday, unless that female ghost also has a human face on the back of her head.

"Don't worry, there should be another reminder at noon." Gu Xingzhou sat next to her.

Sheng Zhiyu said: "I'm a little worried. After the first two prompts, the answer was quickly obtained. If the location of the body parts is not found this time, will there be any accidents?

Now only Sun Yumeng was attacked, and it was because Xiang Junyao took the initiative to kill Mary, which caused Mary to become black. But before participating in the game, the manager clearly said that his life would be in danger. "

"Are you worried about the danger if the corresponding body parts are not found within a fixed time?" Gu Xingzhou understood what she meant.

Sheng Zhiyu said: "This is just my guess. It is impossible for the game designer to give us unlimited time to slowly find the corpse. This is a survival game in itself, not a guessing game.

You have also seen that when Mary went crazy before, even we couldn't control her. "

Although they are cultivators, after entering the game, their cultivation will be suppressed to varying degrees based on the game's design. In other words, the game's NPCs will adjust their data to be strengthened.

Once these NPCs want to take action, they have no chance of winning.

This time the prompt was very unclear, and the others couldn't figure it out after thinking about it all morning, and the time quickly came to noon.

While everyone was waiting for Mary to prepare lunch to give a hint, Mary disappeared.

"What should I do? The prompt is gone." Xiang Junyao frowned.

Sheng Zhiyu thought deeply: "I think it's not that the prompts are gone, but that the game designers think the prompts are enough."

Xiang Junyao raised an eyebrow: "How is this possible?"

Ruan Lu was also puzzled: "I met a bowing ghost last night, and a two-faced man came this morning. What can people guess from this?"

Sheng Zhiyu was also puzzled and couldn't help but look at Gu Xingzhou.

Gu Xingzhou also had no clue for the time being.

Lu Xingjue sat on the sofa and said leisurely: "I have plenty of time anyway. I just want to eat a few hungry meals."

Xiang Junyao said: "Sun Yumeng is getting more and more anxious."

This is understandable, no one can bear to become a human pig for so long.

Lu Xingjue's slender fingers tapped the armrest of the sofa casually, and the words from his thin lips were very cold: "If you ask me, she is useless, so I should kill her and still get her points."

Sheng Zhiyu was very unhappy with what he said, but he couldn't argue with him, as this would destroy their already disunited team.

At night, Mary appeared, but not in her normal state. Instead, she changed back to her previous state after Xiang Junyao chopped off her head.

The crack in the neck showed ferocious features, and the white dress was covered in blood.

"You...haven't found my body yet?" Mary's body faced the crowd and she raised the ax in her hand that was still dripping with blood.

Sheng Zhiyu's worries finally came true: "Run!"

Mary rushed towards them with her ax raised.

Except for Sun Yumeng who was still lying in the bedroom, the other players were in the lobby.

Mary first slashed at the nearest Sheng Zhiyu.

Gu Xingzhou stood in front of Sheng Zhiyu and caught Mary's ax with his sword.

Mary was infinitely strengthened by the game, and her strength became so great that she actually forced Gu Xingzhou back three steps.

"Yu'er, run quickly, I have a way to escape." Gu Xingzhou felt like he couldn't hold on any longer.
