High-energy warning ahead! ! !

All the players subconsciously picked up their phones and swipe the game interface.

[This round of voting was a tie. 】

The game interface only has such a simple line of words.

Everyone was at a loss, and some didn't quite understand the result represented by this sentence.

In the event of a tie—

Does it mean that these two people have to die, or...don't have to die?

When this thought flashed through his mind, strange footsteps sounded again, everyone turned pale, and turned to look in the direction of the back seat of the bus.

Because that's where the footsteps came from!

"despair--"

"Da da--"

The footsteps gradually approached, and everyone seemed to wake up from a start, and retreated to the front of the car in panic, their eyes filled with fear.

The footsteps were still approaching slowly, but no one could see the ghost.

Xia Letian did not leave his seat, he knew clearly that no matter how he ran, he would not be able to escape the attack of the ghost, but he kept thinking in his heart, did he guess wrong?

Even if it was a draw, would they still be attacked by ghosts?

As for the young man sitting next to Xia Letian, he didn't run away either. His expression seemed calm, but there was still a trace of panic in his eyes.

The fear of ghosts seems to be engraved in human blood and genes,

"Guess, which one of us will it kill first?" The young man forced a smile on his face, and was still thinking about who would die first with Xia Letian.

Xia Letian couldn't help but glanced at the young man again, and silently held the yellow talisman in his palm.

The footsteps stopped beside Xia Letian and the young man.

The young man couldn't laugh for a moment, thin cold sweat suddenly broke out on his forehead, because the extreme pressure and fear made his heart beat faster, and his breathing even became rapid and restless. He kept looking around with wide eyes, as if he wanted to Find the trail of the ghost.

Xia Letian pursed his lips unconsciously, scanning the small green characters hanging in mid-air unobtrusively.

Apparently, the ghost - standing right in front of them! ! !

Since he couldn't see the ghost's true face, Xia Letian didn't know what the ghost looked like, let alone whether it was standing there, staring straight at him.

Or——it was bending over, approaching slowly with a sly smile, until its pale face was about to get close to him.

These terrifying images kept flashing in his mind, even Xia Letian, who was extremely calm, couldn't help sweating thinly from his forehead, and the pressure suddenly increased.

In Cao Guanlin's eyes, Xia Letian and that young man are no doubt dead.

The difference is just a matter of who dies first between the two.

Only a few seconds passed, but it felt like a year.

The sound of footsteps sounded again, but this time it gradually faded away and finally disappeared.

Neither Xia Letian nor that young man died.

The young man poked his head out of the water like a drowning person, panting desperately, the sweat on his back almost drenched his clothes like water.

On the contrary, Xia Letian's expression became even more ugly.

Because when the ghost returned, it didn't return to the second-to-last row of seats, but went further to the third-to-last row.

The closed door opens again with a creaking sound, revealing a bottomless cliff, warning all players that they cannot escape from this terrifying ghost bus.

Everyone was stunned, and couldn't help looking at Xia Letian and the young man again.

The two of them...survived.

The bus door opened, and there was a bottomless cliff below. All the players had lost their curiosity about the world outside the bus door.

I was afraid that if I accidentally fell off the cliff, I would die completely.

With a thought in Xia Letian's mind, a strange feeling emerged.

If there is really no way out, why do the bus doors open every time you arrive at a stop and vote?

This seems a bit... too much to do.

Xia Letian thought for a while, got up and arrived at the door of the car, carefully looked outside, and then backed away.

Because ten seconds had passed, the door creaked shut again.

Immediately afterwards, the bus started again.

At this moment, everyone suddenly relaxed. Some seemed to have guessed something, their faces were full of ecstasy, while some were in a daze and didn't understand why Xia Letian and that young man didn't die.

Cao Guanlin was quite shocked.

He didn't expect that the result of the draw would prevent the player's death.

He quickly realized that if the result of the tie is still maintained next time, will he be able to reach the finish line without any damage?

But for some reason, the uneasiness in his heart was getting deeper and deeper.

Because this solution is too simple.

Xia Letian returned to his seat worriedly. The cliff outside was bottomless. It was just a dream to leave the car before reaching the terminal.

But he is 100% sure that the terminal is by no means a way of life, but a real way of death!

Obviously, no players died in the last vote, and the car was running normally. This is enough to show that the conditions for killing ghosts do not need to be triggered in order for the bus to run normally.

But as long as you vote, no matter what the result is, the car will still drive.

So as long as you can come up with a way to "don't let the player die, but you must vote", you can let the player reach the terminal without damage.

However, the end point is not the real stop.

But... when the ghosts started killing.

No, there is actually another possibility.

That is, the terminal is indeed the way of life. Players must constantly trigger the opportunity of "voting", and then let Li Gui continue to sit in the first row.

Similarly, the distance between this ghost and the car door is quite close, it can almost be described as within reach.

Perhaps this will trigger the real way out.

Players can also survive naturally, so players must participate in voting, but they must ensure that there are no casualties, or try to avoid reducing player deaths as much as possible.

This is likely to be the game difficulty that players need to solve.

But there is another possibility that when the ghost arrives at the terminal, there will be no more seats for the ghost to sit on. It can kill the players in the car without having to follow any rules.

This is like the first [Ghost Knocking on the Door] game, Li Gui can't kill people in other time periods, that's why he had already seen the female ghost knocking on the door, and even took away the books at Li Gui's feet, But it didn't trigger the opportunity for the ghost to kill.

You must know that he was quite close to the ghost at that time, but the ghost remained indifferent.

All this is because the task of [Ghost Knocking on the Door] reminded players that this ghost will only start killing at midnight, so all players must return to the house in advance to avoid triggering the conditions for killing ghosts.

However, in the task of [Ghost Bus], it is not clearly stated that players must vote, and it is not clearly stated that the terminal is the way to survive.

It's just ambiguous that if you want to reach the terminal, you must vote.

It seems to be implying the player that the terminal is the time when they can get off.

But besides killing people, what role did that ghost that can only kill people play in this mission?

Xia Letian didn't know which of the two possibilities he guessed was true and which was false.

Cao Guanlin sat in the distance, although he saw that Xia Letian and the young man survived this round of voting, he did not take the initiative to approach them.

The others showed hesitation and still chose to wait and see.

The newcomers were not stupid. After the bus drove, they had already guessed the reason why the two survived, so it was pointless to please them in the past.

They care more about Cao Guanlin's attitude and opinions.

Apart from the fact that Cao Guanlin is an old player, the biggest reason is that he has Huang Mao and the female high school student by his side. The three of them formed a small group, which is likely to play a role in turning the tables in the voting.

Xia Letian was happy to see the success of this, and the young man didn't seem to care about it, instead he took the initiative to chat with Xia Letian, "How did you come up with this method?"

His eyes were full of amazement.

Xia Letian smiled, and asked back: "What about you, aren't you afraid?"

Hearing the words, the man seemed to have a more helpless smile on his face, and he said: "Fear must be fear, who is not afraid of death, but for me, there is no difference between early death and late death, it is better to be a child before death." Good thing."

Xia Letian heard something else from the other party's words, but out of politeness, he didn't continue to ask.

The young man lowered his voice and asked, "What are you going to do when the next round of voting is held?"

Xia Letian came back to his senses, shook his head, "Just wait and see."

He always felt that the good luck last time was unlikely to continue in the next round of voting.

To put it bluntly, this approach is probably not going to work.

10 minutes is up soon.

The speed of the bus slowed down again, and the old machine was creaking desperately. Even though they knew they would not fall, all the players still instinctively grabbed everything around them, with their hearts stuck in their throats.

until the car finally stopped.

The small path in the distance still has no end in sight, as if it continues to the end of the sky.

And a female voice came from inside the car again: "The death site is here, please start voting."

Xia Letian frowned unconsciously.

Strange, this has passed three sites, why is the name of each site called death site?

The moment the car stopped, all the new players became nervous again, and they subconsciously looked at Xia Letian and the young man.

It was like waiting for the two to continue voting with each other to reach a tie and restart the vehicle again.

Xia Letian couldn't help but sneered in his heart.

This game is not as simple as these people imagined. It just so happens that he also wants to try whether his guess is correct.

"Ahem, then what, don't you two continue to vote?" The middle-aged man finally couldn't hold back his mouth and asked.

Xia Letian looked directly at the middle-aged man, without any emotion on his expression, "Last time, he and I voted for each other. Shouldn't it be time for you to vote for each other this time?"

But the words made the middle-aged man who was already lacking in confidence suddenly feel guilty, and couldn't help coughing a few more times, "Then what, I..."

After talking for a long time, I still can't tell why.

Xia Letian probably understood what the other party was thinking, but he just didn't dare to try to vote in order to avoid accidents that would lead to his death.

Although there is a successful example of Xia Letian here, it still cannot offset their fear of voting.

The yellow-haired eyeball rolled, and after thinking about it in his heart, he helped the middle-aged man to speak, "You can't say that, last time you two voted for each other, it was fine, but it doesn't mean that it's fine for us to vote for each other, so the two of you If you sacrifice again, you two will be fine anyway, and you can help us survive."

"That's right, that's what I meant." The middle-aged man immediately patted his thigh, completely unable to see that he was still guilty just now.

"Are you taking the two of us as a fool?" Even the young man who has seen through life and death still couldn't help feeling angry, "If you want to find her, go to her."

The person he was referring to was a housewife who had always been a coward.

The housewife trembled and shrank back desperately, "No, I don't want it."

Seeing this, Xia Letian smiled instead, "Okay, since you ask so, then I promise you."

In fact, he was not kind.

Instead, I want to pour cold water on these people, and sprinkle some salt by the way.

The previous vote for a tie has proved that Li Gui can't kill people, so he and the young man will continue to vote for each other, and naturally nothing will happen.

There may even be some minor accidents.

If he refuses now, it is likely that these players will group together and vote for him, even though he has a yellow charm in his hand and is not afraid of the attack of ghosts.

What he really cares about is that these players are killing each other, causing the bus to get closer and closer to the terminal.

He wanted to delay for a while to find a real way to escape.

Just imagine, this game is so terrifying, it can even create props to defend against ghosts in the real world. This kind of terrifying ability is almost indistinguishable from the power of gods.

So.How could the game allow players to exploit loopholes?

The two voted each other and the result was a tie, so the ghost was unable to kill, and the car started again.

Then the second time, these two people still voted for each other.

Then the ending was still a tie, Li Gui was unable to kill again, and the car continued to drive forward until it reached the finish line.

Can this game still be played?

No one knew what Xia Letian was thinking, when all the newcomers heard that Xia Letian agreed, they couldn't help showing expressions of joy, but quickly restrained themselves and took it back.

Xia Letian turned to look at the young man, "It seems that we have to vote for each other."

The young man still smiled indifferently, "Success, then vote."

Although the other party said yes, Xia Letian couldn't help apologizing: "I'm sorry I didn't ask your opinion."

The young man immediately interrupted Xia Letian's words, "I understand what you mean, if we don't vote for each other, we will die in the hands of these people before that woman."

He saw clearly.

These people all want to protect their lives wisely, but they want them both to die.

If he really rejected these players, then these players would definitely take the initiative to kill them first, and then it would be the housewife's turn.

Therefore, he would rather take a gamble.

Xia Letian and the youth stopped talking and began to vote for each other.

Suddenly, Cao Guanlin, who had been silent and pretended to be an outsider, changed his face drastically. He stood up and shouted hastily, "Don't vote—"

But it's too late.

In an instant, the game sound of ding came from all the players' mobile phones.

[The result of the vote is a tie. It is the same id as the player who judged the tie last time. It is judged that this round of voting is cheating, and the vote is invalid. Please vote again. 】

Everyone was in an uproar, making an unbelievable noise.

Xia Letian thought it was true, but he intentionally showed an expression of indignation on his face, "Look at you, you insisted on letting the two of us vote, and now the game judges us to be cheating."

Everyone was suddenly annoyed, their intestines were about to turn green, and they shouted what to do and what to do.

Cao Guanlin's face was extremely ugly, and he was filled with remorse.

Because just now he suddenly thought of a very important thing, that is, in the last round of the game, these two people voted for each other as a tie, but in this round, these two people voted for each other as a tie.

The same vote twice in a row.

Will the game let players exploit this obvious loophole?

The answer is naturally no.

But the draw in the first round did prevent all players from being attacked by ghosts, so the draw in the second round must be disguised as if it was caused by accident.

Instead of directly letting the two players who participated in the previous round of voting continue to vote for each other.This is likely to determine that the vote failed or was not counted, and it may even cause this method, which can almost be called a bug, to be completely useless.

After he figured out these joints, he hurriedly stopped the two, but it was still too late.

The meaningless quarrel lasted for a few minutes, until someone suddenly proposed a solution: "Is it because the same player voted twice, so it was judged to be cheating? If other players voted for each other, and then the number of votes How about a tie again?"

This statement immediately awakened the dreamer, and all the players expressed that they could give it a try, but who will vote has become a new round of discussion.

All the players stared wide-eyed and became extremely quiet for a while.

What Xia Letian wanted was this kind of result, as long as he could, he took this opportunity to observe the car carefully and began to search for useful clues.

Seeing Xia Letian's actions, the young man followed curiously, "What are you looking for?"

Xia Letian turned his head to look at the young man, and said with a serious expression: "Of course it's because I fell in the car."

youth:"……"
