Chapter 43 The Nightless Emperor City 5

"The secret is here so soon?" Sister Hong obviously became nervous, and turned around to catch up, "Let's go!"

The secrets belong to the opponents of the lights-killers, and they must not give up any clues until they don't know the opponent's purpose.

Just when Sister Hong was about to leave, Xiao Yu suddenly called out in a low voice: "Mom, where are you going?"

Miss Hong paused.

"Mom, don't you want Xiaoyu again?" Xiaoyu slurped softly, and then said aggrievedly.

Seeing this, Miss Hong instantly became sluggish again.

Seeing Sister Hong's hesitant look, Xia Qi turned his head and left, saying, "I'll go chase first! You accompany Xiao Yu!"

Because of Xiao Yu's delay, after Xia Qi chased after him, Cha Gong was already far away from him.Cha Gong shuttled through the crowd of zombies, and soon disappeared.

Because there were too many zombies nearby, Xia Qi soon lost his way in the bustling streets.

Xia Qi was about to turn back to look for Sister Hong, when suddenly he heard a familiar call: "Everyone pass by, don't miss it, come and taste the fresh watermelon, it doesn't cost money if it's not sweet!"

Xia Qi turned his head and looked towards the voice of selling.

I saw a lot of green watermelons beside the river not far away, and the financial man was sitting on the ground next to the watermelons.

However, completely different from the daytime, the financial man dressed tonight is extremely shabby. He is wearing a tattered old man's white vest and holding an old cattail fan in his hand, which is far from the exquisite attire he just entered the game .Next to the financial man, lay a very weak boy. His face was gray, and there were two bruises under his eyes. He looked like he was seriously ill.

If it weren't for Xia Qi's innate ability to remember other people's faces, he probably wouldn't be able to recognize such a miserable financial man.

Seeing that no one bought his watermelon, the financial man began to wail miserably again: "Brothers and sisters, please do me a favor. I have a [-]-year-old mother in my family, and a younger brother who is seriously ill. My family is really short of money. Come quickly!" Buy my watermelon..."

Just when Xia Qi was going to chat with the financial man, two people rushed out from behind and almost bumped into him.

"Father, you've gone too far! Do you still have a conscience? You actually sold your mother to pay off your gambling debts!" ​​The white-faced man stood beside Xia Qi and kept retreating.

Completely different from the daytime, the white-faced man tonight was wearing a loose school uniform, and he was holding a middle-aged woman tightly in his arms.

At this time, a middle-aged lame man rushed out and slapped the white-faced man's face with a slap, causing the white-faced man's mouth to be tilted to the side, and his originally white face turned red into watermelon flesh in an instant.

The lame man cursed at the white-faced man: "Your mother is my daughter-in-law! She will do whatever I tell her to do. Even if I tell her to die, she will die for me!"

Although the lame man was right, the white-faced man still refused to let go and shouted at the lame man: "He is my mother, who gave you the right to sell her!"

"Hahaha, you ask me? Then why don't you ask the trafficker who sold her to me?!" The lame man raised his head and laughed.

Xia Qi looked left at the elite financial man who was selling watermelons, and right at the white-faced man who was having family conflicts, and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

I haven't seen you for a day, why are my teammates like this?

Feeling that the financial man and the white-faced man had already devoted themselves to the copy script, Xia Qi did not disturb their story performance, but continued to walk back.

As he walked, he saw the old man coming towards him again.

Compared with the financial man and the white-faced man who are addicted to games, the old man looks like a normal player.

At this time, the old man was surrounded by a group of girls who looked like high school students. Beside him was his older sister in JK uniform, and three girls in various Tang and Song costumes.

These girls are all handsome, with a sense of youthfulness on their faces.

However, the old man surrounded by the stars and the moon, his expression was as if he was haunted by a female ghost, and he was so mournful that he could die suddenly at any time.

Looking at his guilty expression, Xia Qi couldn't help asking, "Are they all your students?"

Xia Qi faintly felt that if he didn't ask today, he might not be able to ask after a while...

The old man wiped the sweat from his forehead again, and said falteringly: "No, I don't know them."

"Teacher." A female student suddenly turned her head and looked at the old man with a smile, "How could you forget me? Didn't you say that I would come to your office every day after class?"

"That's right." Another female student answered, shaking her privacy out without hesitation, "You even took me to have an abortion, but the operation was not successful, I seem to have bled a lot... ...Hey, why is the hole in my stomach missing?"

Hearing this, the old man's face became paler, his whole body trembled, and he repeated nervously: "Don't say it, don't say it..."

"Teacher, you haven't forgotten what you promised me, right?" My sister suddenly took the old man's hand, her eyes brightened, "You once said that you would give me a lot of money."

Hearing this, Xia Qi couldn't help being shocked.

When he was in the Earl of Rose dungeon, he had heard about his sister's life from his sister.The elder sister loves vanity, and seems to have been in contact with an old man in order to get more money. The reason why she joined the game was also a ticket given by the "old man".

This "old man", could it be the old man in front of me...

The way Xia Qi looked at the old man changed instantly.

"Wuuuuu... make money, okay, I promise you anything." Being held by his sister's soft white hand, the old man was so frightened that he burst into tears.

After the old man agreed, my sister leaned closer to him, and even held the old man's hand intimately.

The old man was shaking like a sieve, even though he was so frightened that he was about to die, he didn't dare to break free from his sister's hand.

"Teacher, why do you only like her and don't like us?" The remaining three female students in ancient costumes also embraced, and they each chose the direction of front, back, left, and right, and clung to the old man.

They were smiling and talking while pushing the old man forward.

One person and four ghosts walked forward closely, but the direction gradually deviated from the main street.

Xia Qi suddenly discovered that their direction was not going to the center of the city that never sleeps at all, but went directly to the river.

The river water shimmered under the moonlight, and countless river lanterns were floating on the river surface. Unlike the river lanterns Xia Qi had seen in the real world, the river lanterns here looked old, and the edges were even yellowed, like Floating on the river for a long time.

What is even more different from the real world is that there are pale candles inserted in the wicks of the river lanterns, and the dark green flames exude icy light, adding a bit of weird color to the beautiful river.

Surrounded by four female students, the old man came to the river.

Looking at the bottomless river in front of him, the old man uttered a miserable scream: "Don't, don't..."

"Teacher, let's go play in the river, shall we?" A female student said with a charming smile.

At this moment, the old man suddenly shook his whole body, turned his head stiffly, and looked in Xia Qi's direction.

His eyes widened in horror, bloodshot eyes bulging out, he opened his mouth exaggeratedly, and silently said to Xia Qi: Help me.

Xia Qi looked at him silently, approached them slowly, and asked, "Are you pleading guilty? The only one who can save you is yourself."

"I, I, I..." The old man suddenly shuddered, tears streaming down his face, and sobbed in despair, "I plead guilty."

As soon as he finished speaking, my sister covered her mouth and laughed, as if she didn't believe it at all. Before the old man could continue, she suddenly stretched out her hand and gently pushed the old man into the river.

With a "plop", the old man's obese body fell into the river instantly like a kite with a broken string.

"Ahhh!"

After being pushed into the river, the old man struggled desperately in the water, trying to swim back to the shore, but at this moment, the four female students straightened up and jumped straight into the river like dumplings.

"Teacher, you can accompany us." After jumping into the water, my sister's hair was all loose, dripping wet on her face and shoulders, like a water ghost crawling out of the river.

Four female students swam to the old man from four directions. Each of them stretched out their hands and climbed onto his neck, shoulders and arms. Then, together, they pushed the old man down into the river.

"Ahhh—poof."

After the old man was pressed into the dark river bottom, the four female students raised their heads together and threw a weird smile at Xia Qi.

Then, like four wooden stakes, they sank together into the river.

[Ding dong!The remaining number of people who put out the lights is 5 people, and 1 people died. 】

Seeing the circle after circle of ripples on the water, Xia Qi sighed silently.

"The blockbuster program of the Luna Lantern Festival is about to start! Everyone, hurry up and watch it!" A person hurriedly walked past Xia Qi, cheering loudly about "fate" and "highlight".

Xia Qi looked suspiciously at the direction in which he disappeared, and followed the crowd to continue walking.

There were more and more lights hanging around, Xia Qi looked at each one carefully.

Originally, when he first entered the bustling streets of the city that never sleeps, these lamps were just paper-made rabbits, white goats, or white ponies. When he got to the center of the city, he found that the appearance of these paper-made lamps became weird. Stepping on auspicious clouds, and a white phoenix pulling a cart, and at the end, there is even a golden dragon chair.

Even though he had never attended a funeral, Xia Qi knew that these lamps were not for the living at all, but for the dead.

Xia Qi followed the crowd across a white three-bridge, and when they came to a square, they stopped.

Xia Qi looked up, and at this moment, in front of him was a tall brick-red city wall, with three golden arches opened on the city wall, and two stone lions were placed at each arched doorway, and the lions opened their eyes towards them. With a mouth open, it looks very imposing, and with the guards on both sides of the arch, this city wall looks a lot like a palace where ancient emperors lived.

A woman pointed to the moon-like sky lantern rising above the city wall, and exclaimed excitedly, "My God, will His Majesty appear tonight?"

"Hasn't Your Majesty been in a deep sleep for a long time?"

Hearing the excited discussion of these men and women, Xia Qi couldn't help frowning.

Your Majesty, who is it?

Could it be the boss of the Dungeon of the Nightless City...

Just thinking about it, Xia Qi had a bad feeling.

He moved slightly, intending to walk back.

However, several groups of people suddenly poured out behind him, blocking his way back for no reason, squeezing him in the middle of the crowd.

Not only that, this group of people was like waves, pushing him forward continuously, allowing him to experience what it feels like to advance without retreating.

The woman continued to gossip: "Your Majesty has been in a long sleep in order to wait for his Moon God, and he finally woke up tonight. It must be his true son 'Moon God' who has appeared in the city that never sleeps. "

Xia Qi: "..."

Another man shouted in surprise: "Look, the Luna Lamp that guides the direction of the Luna is coming towards us!"

Seeing that the flying moon lamp seemed to have eyes, and quickly opened towards the top of his head, Xia Qi gritted his teeth and turned around without hesitation.

He looked at the men, women and children blocking the way behind him, and said expressionlessly: "Excuse me, can you let me go."
