Fatal Game Syndrome

"It's an unknown world, don't sleep too deeply at night!"

After dinner, it was completely dark. When sending the three people out, Ruan Lanzhu reminded them that there was no clue about this door and it would be easy to get caught if they groped around blindly.

Ruan Lanzhu closed the door and sat on the edge of the bed, while Ling Jiushi lay comfortably on the couch with his eyes closed.

"Some of the other people should have received the clue note, but they are experienced veterans. It may not be easy to get them to reveal any information."

Ling Jiushi opened his eyes and looked out the window. Li Dongyuan's room was right next to his, and the two lighted rooms opposite were where the other guests lived. "I remember Li Dongyuan knows hypnosis. Why don't we ask him to think of a solution?"

"But we have no way of knowing who has the note, and even if we try them one by one, we can't be sure that the information the person with the note tells his teammates is correct. At least, it probably won't be complete information."

Ruan Lanzhu fell on the bed and looked at the silk tent. Suddenly, a poem popped up in her mind: Spend the spring night in the warm hibiscus tent, em......

Ling Jiushi coughed and looked away, "Also, if Li Dongyuan wants to hypnotize someone, he has to do it when the other person is alone. But it would take too long to try on everyone, and no one can be sure when they will be alone. Besides, we still have to spend time finding the door and the key."

The situation inside the door is very dangerous. Unless you are a lone wolf, even your teammates who are going to the toilet will be waiting nearby. Instead of waiting to listen to the clues on their notes, you might as well hurry up and find the door.

And as long as someone breaks the taboo, everyone will know the taboo conditions. Just be extra careful in the first two days.

"It's still early, why don't you go out and find out?"

Ling Jiushi looked at his watch. Although it was already dark, it was not yet nine o'clock. After coming in, neither the master of the Li Mansion nor the housekeeper mentioned any time limit. It should be okay to go out for a walk, right?

"It's only the first night here, so don't be in a hurry. Let's wait and see!"

After saying that, Ruan Lanzhu patted the empty seat next to him and said, "Why not go to bed early!"

It’s not even nine o’clock yet, how can Ling Jiushi sleep?

So Ling Jiushi rejected the invitation to sleep, grabbed the bag at the end of the couch, took out the tablet and started writing and drawing.

When he was outside the door, he was preparing to make several sets of top-level divine equipment for himself and Ruan Lanzhu. Although high-level divine equipment could be obtained in Lan Realm, they were the masters of Lan Realm, not ordinary players. Moreover, he also had the ability, so there had to be some unique things to show off, right?

Ling Jiushi fell asleep on the couch at some point and was not awakened until the next morning by the noise in the yard.

"what happened?"

Ling Jiushi sat up and rubbed his eyes. His hair was curled up in his sleep, which made Ruan Lanzhu, who had been staring at him all morning, skip a beat. My wife is so cute, I want to kiss her...

"The servant who brought the food is here!"

As soon as Ruan Lanzhu finished speaking, there was a knock on the door. After opening the door, a young servant came in and placed the breakfast in the lunch box on the round table. The breakfast at the Li Mansion was not simple either, a bowl of seafood porridge with a few side dishes, and the servant also brought out a bowl of eggs and salted duck eggs from under the lunch box.

Ling Jiushi put on his shoes and walked over to take a look. The Li family was quite wealthy. It would be great if all the doors were built according to this standard!

After the servant had set up the breakfast, he picked up the empty lunch box and walked out the door. He took two steps and seemed to have thought of something, so he ran back and said, "Oh, you two gentlemen, have you washed up yet? The well is on the left side of the yard. I'll get you the handkerchiefs right away!"

After saying that, he ran away again. After a while, he came back with a copper washbasin in his hand, with two white handkerchiefs draped over the edge of the basin.

"Thank you!"

Ling Jiushi smiled and said Taoist, the servant was quite embarrassed and scratched his head and laughed twice.

"I see there seem to be very few maids in your house. Wouldn't that be inconvenient for the women?"

Ling Jiushi just thought about when he arrived at Li's house yesterday. All the people serving tea and water were young servants, and there was not a single maid. Now thinking about it, it was a bit strange.

"this......"

The servant looked around and when he saw that there was no one around, he lowered his voice and said, "It's because there's a ghost in the mansion!"

Ruan Lanzhu also came over. Could it be that the ghost specifically harmed women?

"Our house wasn't haunted until after the young mistress died. It just hadn't appeared in public before."

"In the past, maids would disappear in the mansion every once in a while, but we could never find any clues. It was as if they disappeared out of thin air, so we all guessed that they were harmed by ghosts!"

The servant gritted his teeth when he said this. Xiaolian, whom he loved, had also disappeared. She had given him a purse before she disappeared. If she hadn't disappeared, maybe he and Xiaolian could have gotten married and had children. What a pity!

"Were there any unusual behaviors before they disappeared? Like strange behaviors, or did they go to the same place?"

The servant tilted his head and thought for a moment, "Does it count if they have all been to the young master's yard?"

"Calculate!"

Ruan Lanzhu nodded and asked, "What disease did your young lady die of?"

“I’m not sure about this either!”

The servant frowned and said, "The young lady died suddenly and there was no time to find a doctor. In the end, it was the young master who personally carried her into the coffin. No one except the young master saw the young lady for the last time!"

Ruan Lanzhu had some guesses in his mind. She died so suddenly that the doctor didn't have time to look for her. No one saw the young lady for the last time. After her death, people in the mansion saw her ghost. This was already very obvious!

"You should have guessed something, right?"

Ruan Lanzhu smiled. The servant was stared at by the two men with such intense gazes that sweat was almost dripping from his forehead.

They did guess some things, and there were similar rumors among them privately. The main reason was that their eldest young master had done it too obviously. No one was sure whether the maid died at his hands, but he was definitely involved in the death of the young mistress!

"hehe!"

"Well, I've been on duty in the yard these days. If you two gentlemen have any instructions, just call me directly!"

After saying that, he ran away.

"Run so fast!"

Ling Jiushi muttered, he hasn’t finished asking yet!

"You said that his young mistress's family didn't come to ask for the truth? The family that can marry into the Li family should not be too low, right? Even if they are not favored, they should consider their face and ask for the reason, right?"

"Let's find a chance to ask later!" Ruan Lanzhu smiled, took the copper basin from his hand and placed it on the edge of the well, then lowered the bucket down and fetched a bucket of water.

"How do you know how to draw well water?"

Ling Jiushi was amazed and tried it himself, but the wooden barrel floated on the water and was difficult to tip over to fill it with water. "Why can't I get it up?"

"The main thing is to control the rope well and let the force swing down along the rope!"

Ruan Lanzhu took the rope from Ling Jiushi's hand and shook it. The rope shook out an arc like a wave, "Look!"

Ling Jiushi stretched his head to look inside. When the last section of the rope shook loose, the wooden barrel floating on the water lost its balance and fell down.

"Great!"

Ling Jiushi gave him a thumbs up.

"Two people can't look into a well. Don't stick your head in when there's anyone else around besides me!"

If you ever meet someone with bad intentions, a push from behind will definitely kill him.

"Know it!"

Ling Jiushi leaned over, touched his shoulder and smiled.

After finishing their meal, the two of them went out. They originally wanted to go to Li Dongyuan's room to take a look, but they didn't expect to run into a few other people just as they stepped out of the door. The other party nodded and greeted them politely, and then left the courtyard.

"Aren't they two groups? Why are they together?"

Ling Jiushi looked back at the seven people who left the courtyard. It was a huge group. "Are you just isolating us?"

Ruan Lanzhu sneered. Whether they were isolated or not, he looked down upon their insignificant strength.

"You haven't finished eating yet?"

Ling Jiushi looked at the breakfast on the table which was barely touched and was a little surprised. These three people actually slept in!

"Last night this idiot forced us to play poker. We went to bed at around 2am and couldn't get up in the morning!"

Tan Zaozao stretched out her chin and pointed at Cheng Qianli. Her eyes were puffy and it was obvious that she had been staying up late. This was completely inconsistent with her usual exquisite image.

"Playing poker?"

Ling Jiushi's eyes widened, "Why didn't you call us?"

They were also bored. There were no entertainment facilities here. His electronic products could only play single-player games, and he had to save his video games because there were still several days left.

"Meng Yu said you two had something to play, and he wouldn't let me go call you!"

Cheng Qianli gulped down a mouthful of porridge and looked up at Ling Jiushi, his face full of curiosity, "What are you playing? We are all family, but you are hiding your secrets. Even I can't play with you?"

For a moment, the room fell into a strange silence. Li Dongyuan was obviously making a dirty joke, but this idiot not only couldn't hear it but also kept asking questions. How should I answer?

Ruan Lanzhu glanced at Li Dongyuan lightly. Li Dongyuan lowered his head and reflected silently. Why did he say these words to this fool?

Seeing that everyone's expressions were not very good, Cheng Qianli shrank his neck, especially when Ruan Lanzhu looked at him, his eyes were too oppressive, making him bury his head and try hard to reduce his presence.

"Haha, eat quickly! We still have to look for clues after eating!"

Ling Jiushi changed the subject dryly.

"The seven people just now were all fine. No one was killed last night, so the taboo conditions should be less likely to be touched, right?"

"It should be. This door is a high-level door. As I told you before, the higher the level, the more extensive the taboo conditions are."

Ruan Lanzhu finally moved his gaze away from Cheng Qianli, and the latter breathed a sigh of relief. Ruan Ge's gaze was too scary, as if he wanted to eat him.

"Then we are relatively safe for now!"

Ling Jiushi sighed, "So, the kite-making room that the housekeeper mentioned should be the more suspicious place."

"The door or the key should be over there, and the forbidden condition should also be related to that place!"

After saying that, Ruan Lanzhu looked at the three people who were eating, "Eat quickly, and then come over to take a look after you finish eating!"
