System [I am in a horror dungeon]

Chu Lingxian didn't say anything. She looked up and heard the monster's voice. Seeing that she couldn't get close, she felt a little relieved.

"Look for some mechanism on the wall. Maybe there's a passage or something."

The two of them were groping along the wall. Lu Nanyin touched a protrusion and hurriedly called Chu Lingxian over, "There is a protrusion here. Could it be a mechanism?"

Chu Lingxian walked over and touched the bulge. After thinking for a moment, he pressed it down.

The wall in front of them rose, and what appeared before the two was a passage with dim lights on both sides and no end in sight.

Chu Lingxian approached the passage and Lu Nanyin hurriedly followed. The moment they entered the passage, the wall fell down, cutting off their way back.

The two walked in silence, their footsteps echoing in the corridor.

After walking for a distance, Chu Lingxian stopped and looked up.

"What's wrong?" Lu Nanyin also raised her head, and found nothing unusual, then turned to look at Chu Lingxian.

"In terms of distance, we're already out of the hospital here, and..." Looking at the endless passage in front of him, his brows furrowed.

"And what?"

Chu Nanyin sighed, "And the room we were in before was 404, which should be on the fourth floor of the hospital."

Lu Nanyin looked back and forth at the passage, and the more she looked, the weirder it seemed.

"Fourth floor, but what's going on with this passage? We..." Lu Nanyin didn't dare to say the rest, for fear of making herself cry again.

Chu Lingxian thought about it and sat down on the ground, "It seems that we are trapped here."

"Ah?" Lu Nanyin was speechless for a moment when she saw her bad look.

"I'm sorry for making you and me go to a dead end."

Lu Nanyin also sat down and faced Chu Lingxian, "I should say this to you, I..."

"Listen to me first, and then you'll know everything."

Lu Nanyin didn't say anything and just listened to her quietly.

"Lu Nanyin, do you know? A few years ago, without your knowledge, you saved me."

Lu Nanyin looked at her carefully, recalling the past.

"I've said this before you know it, so don't think about it, just listen to me."

Lu Nanyin nodded and motioned for her to continue.

"At that time, you and your classmates were on your way home from school and you found something of mine. You thought it was interesting so you took it home. Later, the group of people who were chasing me went to your house, but they couldn't do anything and left without finding me."

Lu Nanyin vaguely remembered that incident. That day after school, she picked up a thumb-sized, high-quality pearl on the road. She strung it with a rope, took it home secretly, and put it in a small box. Later, she posted a missing person notice at the place where she picked up the pearl, but the owner was never found.

"So that pearl is yours. I didn't expect this would actually help you."

"Later, I went to your house and saw the pearl. I wanted to take it away, but for some reason, I never got to it."

The two smiled at each other. Chu Lingxian put away his smile and kept looking at her. Lu Nanyin looked away and muttered in her heart, why are you looking at me all the time, is there something on your face?

"Why do you think you're here?"

This question made Lu Nanyin confused. Why did she come here? She didn't know either. She shook her head truthfully and looked at Chu Lingxian.

"To be honest, you're here... because of me."

"What!" Lu Nanyin didn't expect it to be like this. For a moment, her brain was overloaded and she couldn't process what was going on.

Chu Lingxian was a little afraid to look at her, so he looked away and continued, "From the looks of you, you probably don't have any memory of the period before you entered the dungeon."

Lu Nanyin thought about it carefully and realized that it was exactly as she said, she didn't remember it.

"I brought you to the main god space of the system and forced you to bind to the system because you were dying. You had a car accident in the real world, and when I passed by, I pulled you into the dungeon. As long as you successfully leave, your life in the real world will not be in danger. Originally, your dungeon level was C, and you would not be in such a dangerous situation now. You only needed to find clues, advance the plot, and complete the final task. I didn't expect that..."

"I didn't expect that the copy could change its level? And the plot became so terrifying?" Lu Nanyin continued her words.

Chu Lingxian smiled softly and shook his head slightly, "This has happened before, but only one of the level and plot changes. This is the first time I've seen both change."

Lu Nanyin saw that she had been covering her arm joints, "What's wrong with your arm? Is it injured?"

"It's nothing, I just stretched it just now. The joints are a little dislocated." Chu Lingxian said as he straightened his arm and restored the dislocated bones under Lu Nanyin's shocked gaze.

"Don't you feel any pain?" Lu Nanyin asked subconsciously.

"Hurt?" Chu Lingxian laughed, "Didn't you feel that there is any difference between you and me these days?"

Lu Nanyin looked at her carefully. Different, what's different? (?_?) Her face is prettier than mine, she's taller than me, she's got a better figure than me, she's smarter than me, and her fighting ability is many times greater than mine. Sigh, comparing yourself to others is frustrating!

"Don't you feel that my body temperature is much lower than yours?"

Low body temperature? Uh... a little bit. Every time I hugged her, she felt very cool, while I was sweating all over. But it was probably because I was scared.

"And..." Chu Lingxian turned on the flashlight, pointed it at the ground, and placed his other hand under the light.

When Lu Nanyin saw this scene, even her breathing stopped. She...she had no shadow!

Lu Nanyin swallowed her saliva with a gulp, not daring to look into her eyes, and stared at the hand. Her hand reacted faster than her brain and actually held her hand.

Chu Lingxian:(*???)!!

Her hands were a little bigger than mine, with slender fingers. Probably because of sword training, there was a thin layer of calluses. Her skin was very white, but it was the kind of white that was completely bloodless. When placed next to my hands, it looked even more so. Her body temperature was also much lower than mine... Her hands were very beautiful, just like what was written in the book, her fingers were like peeling onion roots...

Lu Nanyin suddenly realized what she was thinking. She really wanted to slap herself. Why was she still thinking about these things at this time?

Chu Lingxian didn't say anything, just watched her changing expressions and found it extremely interesting.

Lu Nanyin came back to her senses, saw her looking at her with a smile, then looked at her restless hands, quickly let go of her hands and stood up, put her hands in her arms, curled up into a ball, turned around and faced the wall, fearing that she would cut off her claws in the next second.

"Are you so scared of me?" A voice came from behind. Lu Nanyin felt a chill on her back. It was her who came closer. She supported herself with her hands on the wall beside her, trapping herself in the middle and unable to move.
