It's almost like I'm a fairy
Chapter 73 Story
In the second half of the night, Qi Tianhe didn't sleep well, and would prick up his ears when he heard a little wind and grass, but there was no more screaming before dawn, and the night passed quietly.
The next day was gloomy, with thick dark clouds piled up in the air, but they did not turn into rain.
It was late at dawn, and everyone generally woke up a little later than yesterday.
As soon as Tao Lian woke up to dawn, he looked sleepily at Qi Tianhe who had washed up: "You wake up really early."
Turning around, he habitually greeted the tablet on the head of the bed: "A Huai, good morning."
Qi Tianhe couldn't help asking: "Aren't you afraid that the dead ghost will really appear?"
Tao Lian laughed and said, "On the one hand, I feel that ghosts are fake, but also think about them all the time. This feeling of fear is the ultimate pursuit of horror lovers."
Qi Tianhe couldn't judge his theory, but Tao Lian seemed to have opened up the chatterbox, chasing him until he went out.
"Did you say that the evil spirit really appeared last night?"
"Maybe you are in the same room with the devil." Liu Tianming just came out of the opposite room, and said something casually after hearing it.
Wang Chang also pushed the door out at this time, similar to Qin Rang's state yesterday morning, his movements were very natural, his facial skin was intact, even much smoother, but he had a feminine smell when he spoke.
"Good morning." The player who never talked much greeted him proactively.
The screams from last night seemed to be still in his ears, Qi Tianhe pursed his lower lip and asked, "Did you sleep well?"
Wang Chang showed a memorable smile and nodded.
Qi Tianhe slowed down his pace, and after he went downstairs, he walked slowly to the stairs, and knocked on Baichan's door by the way.
Bai Chan appeared soon, with the same feeling of repelling people thousands of miles away, and the small gesture of leaning against the door was the same as usual. Seeing this, Qi Tianhe nodded in satisfaction, it seemed that he was not possessed.
The old man does not know what time to get up every day, and he has prepared a large pot of noodles. The soup is still watery, but today the soup seems to be extra delicious.
Qi Tianhe picked up the noodles with chopsticks, and the aroma wafted around, but he had no appetite at all.
Qin Rang and Wang Chang ate very deliciously, and the soup was still steaming, so they were not affected at all. Gu Lulu went to fill another bowl after drinking the noodle soup.Qi Tianhe stared at Zhao Nangui for a few seconds. The latter had obvious dark circles and yawned frequently.
This state means that Zhao Nangui is likely to be a living person, and the players present are more or less surprised to see that he is still alive.
Even Zhao Nangui himself was surprised. He locked himself in the room last night and slept until midnight when he suddenly saw a magnified human face outside the window... Qin Rang was standing on the narrow window sill with a memorial tablet in his hands. He didn't know what to do It arrived, but it didn't fall.
A layer of glass can't stop anything, Zhao Nangui felt it was going to be cold, he gritted his teeth and wanted to fight to the death, but when he took out the props and rushed to chase people away, he unexpectedly saw a white shadow floating towards the old locust tree in the night, At about the same time, Qin Rang's strength weakened and he disappeared from the window.
"The state of that thing seems a bit strange." Zhao Nangui recalled.
After he finished speaking, several eyes looked at Qi Tianhe without showing any trace.
The old man helped each of them add a spoonful of soup, glanced at the four horror lovers, and repeated what he said on the first day: "You guys have very good fortune, and you can handle dirty things."
The players ate breakfast calmly, knowing that this was another hint that in addition to paying attention to the mission, they also had to protect the personal safety of the npc.
Xiao Nan leaned against the plaster statue he made yesterday and asked, "What are you doing today?"
The companion next to him joked: "Should I shape A Huai's limbs? I'm not good at that."
After Xiaoxi's death, Tao Lian's temper became a little impetuous. Hearing this, he couldn't help but said, "Can this really recruit ghosts? It's been two days and I haven't seen any ghosts."
Qi Tianhe silently listened to his death-defying remarks, and suddenly realized that these npcs were used to increase the difficulty of dungeons, and their every move was completely in line with the passionate young people in horror movies who like to challenge the rules.
"Of course." The old man gave a clear guarantee: "She is still too weak now, as long as you follow my steps, you can see the Huai in your heart with your own eyes."
Seeing that no one else spoke, the old man continued to explain: "Today is to make the torso. There are a few locust trees that are dying behind the hotel. You can cut down the trunks for carving. But be careful, some trees are not suitable for cutting."
The speech retains the npc's usual cloudy style.
Zhu Shuse: "What is not suitable?"
Because yesterday's work caught my eye, the old man had a good impression of her, so he added one more sentence: "Be careful with the hollow wood, it is easy to hide bad luck inside."
The weather outside was not suitable for going out at all. At first it was just cloudy, and then it was very windy.
No one has been to the place beyond the hotel, Qi Tianhe asked the old man for a big bag, stuffed all the plaster statues and tablets in it, and walked with Baichan.
If she didn't bring her younger brother with her, Zhu Shuse would be a lone traveler in the dungeon more often, walking behind the two of them not too far away.
After estimating the distance, the possibility of the other party hearing the soft conversation is very low, Qi Tianhe whispered: "Is it scary when I went crazy last night?"
Bai Chan seldom kept the secret from him about excluding the man in the bandage: "The group was almost wiped out."
Qi Tianhe: "Then what is Zhu Shuse drawing?"
If the team destroys her, she will be out of the game. There is no need for an old player to make a decision that harms others and does not benefit oneself.
"Maybe it's because of you." Bai Chan pondered for a moment before giving a guess.
When Qi Tianhe looked over, Bai Chan analyzed calmly: "For her, it's more important to make you lose your mind."
Qi Tianhe was silent for a while: "In fact, last night was not only because of the body of all spirits and being possessed, right?"
Bai Chan: "I still need to observe."
Qi Tianhe thought for a while and said: "That night a drop of ink from Zhibi dripped into my eyes, and then I once again entered the wonderful world I saw in Yizhen."
Bai Chan stopped and frowned slightly.
Qi Tianhe sighed: "The female ghost in the dream told me that the balance should be broken."
This dungeon obviously has conditions that make the balance out of control.
What frightens people is always the unknown. He may not care about his background and past, but he is afraid of losing his mind and becoming a killing machine.
"I'm here," Bai Chan seemed to know what he was worried about, but his calm tone could bring people an inexplicable sense of peace of mind: "Don't worry."
"That's what you said last time," Qi Tianhe said helplessly, "and you were arrested for stealing hair that day."
He swore that when he said this, he clearly saw Bai Chan's eyelids twitch.
"Forget about that." The calm tone finally gave birth to waves.
Qi Tianhe turned his head away, trying not to laugh in front of the other party is already a great self-cultivation.
Walking forward for about 600 meters, I finally saw a small piece of lowland. From here to the forest, I had to pass a relatively steep slope. When Qi Tianhe jumped down, I looked up and observed that it was almost the same height as ordinary burials.
There are fifty or sixty trees at a glance, and it is difficult to see a few leaves. The branches covered by snow in winter are not so decayed.
I walked to a nearby tree and knocked, and the bark was slightly dented in an instant.Tried three or four in a row, all in the same situation.
"What, aren't they all empty?" Tao Lian, who arrived one step ahead of them, complained.
Xiao Nan rubbed his chin: "Why don't you just cut down a tree?"
The other two npcs have already raised their hands to get the ax from the old man, ready to take action directly.
Qi Tianhe really didn't want to care about it, but the current situation is 'protecting npcs is everyone's responsibility', so he had no choice but to step forward and persuade him: "If you do things perfunctorily, what if it affects Ah Huai?"
The brain circuits of both sides were connected because of this sentence, and the four horror story lovers temporarily gave up the dangerous method and turned to observe seriously.
There was a sudden curse from behind——
"Fuck!"
When Zhao Nangui came down the slope, he lost his footing and hit a tree in front of him, which instantly fell down.
Qi Tianhe was standing in front, and quickly stepped back, the dry tree trunk hit the ground, splashing a burst of choking dust.
Zhao Nangui didn't care about hitting the mud on his body, remembering the old man's advice to be careful with the hollow wood, his face was very ugly.Walking to the tablet that was thrown out, he pursed his lips tightly.
He was pulled down by an invisible force just now, causing him to fall... That hand happened to be holding the tablet.
"Are you okay?" Qin Rang then jumped down to pretend to be caring, but his tone was gloating.
Qi Tianhe vaguely understood something, and then walked as close as possible to Bai Chan, so that one party would be able to help in time if there was an accident.
Baichan: "There are a few thicker trees ahead, go there."
Qi Tianhe nodded, and said as he walked, "Qin Rang's hair seems to have grown a lot, and some small movements are more feminine."
It just so happened that General Wu was also here. He didn't even touch the tree with the corner of his clothes, and controlled the paper-cuts to stick on the bark. His relaxed state was in stark contrast to the others.
"Assimilation," the witch general said, turning his head, "it means that the process of assimilation is completed. If you are lucky, you will face several ghosts in a row at the end."
Even if Qi Tianhe doesn't have a lot of dungeon experience, he knows what bad luck means... Qin Rang, Wang Chang and others have been completely reduced to Ahuai's nourishing Gu, and the time has come for the female ghost to devour them to strengthen themselves.
That kind of Gu King type ghost, all players may not be able to deal with it together.
The paper figurine suddenly clings to a tree, the witch general walks over to put his ear close to the tree trunk, shakes his head quickly, and the paper figurine continues to investigate.
They all stayed in an area, and they really found someone who didn't know who the tree was. Qi Tianhe looked around, and there were people next to the trees that were a little more energetic.Just as he was thinking about how to detect it, there was a sound of heavy objects falling to the ground not far away. Zhu Shuser and the man in the bandage cut down a tree one after another, both of which were solid.
The witch general also seemed to have discovered something, making a choice between the two trees.
Qi Tianhe tried to find some patterns, but he was still half a beat behind without any props.During the period, he glanced at Bai Chan, who was casually looking at the sky, as if he was trying to figure out when it would rain.
Knowing that he had a plan in mind and was waiting for himself to make up his mind, Qi Tianhe went back to the slope to observe the overall effect.
The few trees that were felled before are generally gathered in the south, and the collapsed trees have not been transported away. If it is not for the visual deviation caused by light and shadow, Zhu Shuse and others have selected only a few trees with reddish bark, and the surface very smooth.
According to the same standard, I turned around inside, and found a total of six or seven such tree species.
The line of sight wandered, and Bai Chan said at this time: "Don't just look at the tree, but look at what is buried under the tree."
Inspired, Qi Tianhe took out a small shovel and carefully dug the hole. The roots of the tree were very shallow, so he didn't dare to use too much force to prevent the tree from being broken.It didn't take long for the shovel to touch something hard, and after a little prying, it turned out to be a hand bone.
Ordinary white bones are very common in the dungeon world, but this hand bone is different. There are many black water droplets on the joints, as if they have been soaked in water in the past.Qi Tianhe squatted down and took a closer look to make sure that it wasn't because of the pollution of the soil, the water droplet itself was as thick as ink.
Taking a few steps back, he boldly dug a little deeper, and the soil underneath was almost completely black. Qi Tianhe always felt that this scene looked familiar.
After changing the land several times in a row, I finally found nothing under the last tree.
Bai Chan walked up to him and nodded.
The two looked at each other and cut down the tree together. The tree fell to the ground without too much effort.
Qi Tianhe: "I'm afraid the master can't use this material to carve."
As he spoke, he picked up some dead branches from the side, made a pose and said, "Do you want to stick it with some glue to make a stickman?"
Bai Chan: "The craft of carving is not important, the key lies in the process."
I pressed the tree trunk with my hands to test the softness. By the way, "These trees are all covered with the same breath. After a long time of contact, it will be useless when you use props to attack ghosts."
Qi Tianhe thought of his most practical props very realistically: "Is it the same for [Old Banknotes]?"
Bai Chan made an analogy: "The props are restricted by the rules and cannot harm the player, just like sticking ghost charms on you is useless. After you and the ghost have the same breath, the ghost will be automatically classified as harmless by these props."
Qi Tianhe was thoughtful, Wang Chang must have made sufficient preparations last night, and he still got the point, maybe it has something to do with the failure of the props.
Veteran players generally have two special skills: picking locks and playing with knives.
While they were talking, the sculptures of the people over there had begun to take shape, and Zhu Shuse's movements were the most agile, and the sculptures were lifelike.The rest are just the opposite, and their subordinates have reservations. Under normal circumstances, a body that is too perfect is more beneficial to ghosts than players.
Qi Tianhe couldn't understand her operation more and more. Zhu Shuse seemed to be more active than the old man in the hotel in the matter of resurrecting Ahuai.
"Is there any connection between her and ghosts?"
The tone is not too sure, if there is a connection, it should be more concealed.
Bai Chan: "I will always know."
Something seemed to come to mind between the words: "Move the trunk back first."
When going uphill, Qi Tianhe saw Qin Rang smile at him, with resentment and hatred mixed in it.
"Don't pay attention to him," Bai Chan said, "It's because of the female ghost's influence."
The two of them carried the tree together and walked to the hotel. Qi Tianhe was still thinking about Qin Rang's distorted smile, and coughed: "The female ghost's arm...doesn't shed its limbs naturally, does it?"
Bai Chan showed no expression: "It's not important."
The tree was temporarily placed on the side of the hotel. He went to the kitchen to replace it with a bigger machete, and directly divided the tree trunk into two, half for each person. The living white cicada was almost carved by one hand.
Qi Tianhe: "Will you follow in the footsteps of Wangchang?"
Wang Chang stole Xiaoxi's posthumous work, and asked someone to engrave it for him, the essence is the same.
Bai Chan shook his head: "This morning, the old man didn't emphasize that the body must be made according to his own wishes." After a pause, he warned: "The female ghost's arm was easily broken last night, and it is also related to her not fully recovering her strength. Every day, her strength will increase several times."
The implication is to be mentally prepared.
The sawdust was flying around and the air was not good. It took at least three or four hours to finish the rough carving of two works.
Bai Chan asked him to go back to the house to rest or go around nearby. It was daytime, as long as he didn't die, knowing that he stayed away from the small forest just now, it was unlikely to trigger the death rule.
Qi Tianhe felt that between the lines in the other party's words seemed to be hinting at something.
Seeing him standing still, Bai Chan simply said: "The female ghost is still weak during the day, and she was afraid of you after being injured before."
Qi Tianhe understood: "Let me disgust her? Reason with Ah Huai."
I think it's time to upgrade the Beep skills.
Baichan: "To know the connection between the female ghost and Zhu Shuser, as well as the puzzles about you, Ah Huai will be a good breakthrough."
A brand new way of thinking was in front of him, and Qi Tianhe's eyes shone brightly: "It makes sense."
When he was walking towards Xiaotupo, Bai Chan suddenly said: "Ghosts have a limit to their patience, don't be stubborn."
Qi Tianhe waved his hand, expressing that he would pay attention to propriety.
There was no one around Xiaotupo. When he approached, the locust tree branches that were swaying in the wind suddenly stopped, so lifeless that they almost didn't write their disgust on the branches.
"I want to talk to you about life."
Qi Tianhe sat down at a relatively safe distance: "The ancients said that Wan Muchun is in front of a sick tree. Although new things will replace old things, it generally refers to new lives with positive meanings. You can't do it..."
After a long talk, the branches swayed slightly, and there were small and weird sounds in the tree hole. The overly long nails protruded from the hole at some point, grabbing the bark outside, and he stopped at the right time, knowing that he was about to step on the other side bottom line.
Qi Tianhe didn't give up just yet, but took out the 【Chewing Gum】 that had never been used in the dungeon.He still clearly remembers the introduction of this thing: refreshing all day long, it can make NPC feel good about it.
There is no fraud in the introduction, and the word "whole day" is specially noted in the column of time limit.
Qi Tianhe opened the package, and after chewing twice, the thing suddenly became extremely hard in his mouth, like a hard fruit candy, and he could only hold it in the end.
He cleared his throat and continued to sing like a poet: "The hazy weather can't hide your innocent smile. The darker the moment, the more you must awaken the truth, goodness and beauty in your heart..."
There is reason in the admiration, forcibly improving the favorability of the npc and using the beep skill, using the two heavens of ice and fire to describe this feeling is considered light.
It lasted until noon, when it began to rain lightly, Qi Tianhe stood up: "I'll go back and have a meal first, and I'll come to you in the afternoon."
Almost at the door of the hotel, Liu Tianming happened to have just entered, and habitually looked at the side of Tupo: "I remember that tree sprouted a few new shoots yesterday."
It seems to be gone now.
Qi Tianhe's face remained unchanged: "Maybe it's malnutrition."
He sat at the round table early, and Bai Chan walked over after washing his hands: "How is the communication?"
"I did everything as you said," Qi Tianhe: "But I didn't talk about the main point, I just finished the preparations."
Bai Chan nodded without asking further questions.
Qi Tianhe had to be careful not to swallow the sugar for a bowl of noodles in clear soup that was nothing new, and he didn't eat a few mouthfuls in total.
Zhao Nangui has been in a trance since he knocked down the tree in the morning, always thinking that there is an unknown force dragging him, but now the situation has improved a bit, when he just relaxed and had a meal, the bowl suddenly fell from the table, and the soup spilled all over.
Zhao Nangui quickly stood up, cursing and saying, "If you want to kill or cut at will, why are you disgusting?"
Two days ago, no player was as unlucky as him.
Qi Tianhe handed over a piece of paper: "Perhaps the ghost is not in a good mood right now, please understand more."
**Ghost felt that this didn't sound right, so he couldn't say it.
Qi Tianhe was the first to go out after eating.
He stood alone under the locust tree, looking at the figure alone from a distance, the picture was discordant and poignant.
The man in the bandage glanced at Bai Chan with his eyelids raised.
The latter said calmly: "I let him go."
Bai Chan is surprisingly cruel and true in a certain way. He feels that even if the sky falls, he must tell Qi Tianhe first, at least let him know why he suffered, instead of being pushed forward by others and fate in speculation and surprise Walk.
……
Sometimes the breeze blows, sometimes the wind blows.
With disheveled hair, Qi Tianhe sat under the tree and continued to talk about life and ideals with the female ghost in the tree hole.
[Chewing Gum] and Beep skills are superimposed, and the female ghost can't help but feel good about the people outside when she wants to vomit. Suddenly, she suddenly thinks that the other party once stood coldly in front of her, like a demon climbing up from hell.
Ghosts instinctively worship and fear more powerful forces, and she is no exception.
Qi Tianhe suddenly asked: "What is your relationship with Zhu Shuse?"
Fearing that the ghost would not know her name, she deliberately added, "It's the only woman left."
After several hours of mental torture, the female ghost just wanted to dismiss him early, and the cold tone made the scalp tingle: "It's okay, but I seem to have seen it somewhere."
Qi Tianhe asked a few more tentative questions, but seeing that he couldn't ask anything, he changed the topic: "Then have you seen me?"
The female ghost doesn't know why.
Qi Tianhe said under the condition of ambiguous part of the information: "You should be able to see that I can't control myself occasionally."
As he said that, he closed his eyes, the rain dripped from his forehead, and his trembling eyelashes showed a trace of fragility.
The strange thumping sound interrupted his sadness, Qi Tianhe hurriedly took a few steps back, looking at the locust tree vigilantly.
"My memory and strength have not fully recovered." After a long time, a faint voice sounded from inside the locust tree: "You can come to me after midnight."
The female ghost threw out the bait, but Qi Tianhe hadn't decided whether to take the bait yet.The power of the ghost after midnight must be much stronger than it is now. Maybe the female ghost herself doesn't know anything, just to let him seek his own death.
The rain intensified in the afternoon, and the old man set up a temporary shed outside. With a hoarse voice, he went to the grove to call the players who were still carving, and waited for everyone to arrive before starting to judge everyone's works in advance.
Because of what happened yesterday, he had a very bad impression of Qi Tianhe. First, he praised the works of Qin Rang, Zhu Shuser and others without hesitation, and then made a harsh evaluation of Qi Tianhe with a critical eye: "Too slender, and plaster head Doesn't match..."
Anyone can guess that if the old man continues to talk, Qi Tianhe will be the last one for today.
The fact is also true, even though Bai Chan deliberately shoddy his work, the old man still directly gave Qi Tianhe the last place.
"You have already lost the entry quota for the adventure event," the old man said grimly: "Please leave in time."
Unlike last night, the old man did not know what to rely on today, and his tone was confident.
There was silence outside, and everyone had different thoughts.
At this moment, the game prompts the sound:
[Story: Difficulty s.
Reason for downgrade: An important npc, Ah Huai, has a good impression of a certain player. ]
Then the game prompt sounded again:
[Parameter error.
This dungeon is an auto-upgrade dungeon of difficulty, and is trying to restart for the first time. ]
[Story: Difficulty s-
Reason for relegation: Important npc Ah Huai's favor towards a certain player continues to rise. ]
[Parameter error.
This dungeon is an auto-upgrade dungeon of difficulty, and is trying to restart for the second time. ]
……
In the weird atmosphere, Bai Chan asked, "What did you do?"
Qi Tianhe was stunned: "Just as you taught me, give a date with a stick."
On second thought, could this be the legendary Stockholm Syndrome?
The female ghost finally developed a love-hate relationship when she wanted to vomit and couldn't control her affection?
When everyone heard the words, they all stared at Bai Chan with indescribable eyes, and Zhao Nangui couldn't help but muttered, "Abetting a crime."
It was only at this time that Qi Tianhe realized the thumping sound from inside the tree trunk, which turned out to be the sound of a heartbeat.
The next day was gloomy, with thick dark clouds piled up in the air, but they did not turn into rain.
It was late at dawn, and everyone generally woke up a little later than yesterday.
As soon as Tao Lian woke up to dawn, he looked sleepily at Qi Tianhe who had washed up: "You wake up really early."
Turning around, he habitually greeted the tablet on the head of the bed: "A Huai, good morning."
Qi Tianhe couldn't help asking: "Aren't you afraid that the dead ghost will really appear?"
Tao Lian laughed and said, "On the one hand, I feel that ghosts are fake, but also think about them all the time. This feeling of fear is the ultimate pursuit of horror lovers."
Qi Tianhe couldn't judge his theory, but Tao Lian seemed to have opened up the chatterbox, chasing him until he went out.
"Did you say that the evil spirit really appeared last night?"
"Maybe you are in the same room with the devil." Liu Tianming just came out of the opposite room, and said something casually after hearing it.
Wang Chang also pushed the door out at this time, similar to Qin Rang's state yesterday morning, his movements were very natural, his facial skin was intact, even much smoother, but he had a feminine smell when he spoke.
"Good morning." The player who never talked much greeted him proactively.
The screams from last night seemed to be still in his ears, Qi Tianhe pursed his lower lip and asked, "Did you sleep well?"
Wang Chang showed a memorable smile and nodded.
Qi Tianhe slowed down his pace, and after he went downstairs, he walked slowly to the stairs, and knocked on Baichan's door by the way.
Bai Chan appeared soon, with the same feeling of repelling people thousands of miles away, and the small gesture of leaning against the door was the same as usual. Seeing this, Qi Tianhe nodded in satisfaction, it seemed that he was not possessed.
The old man does not know what time to get up every day, and he has prepared a large pot of noodles. The soup is still watery, but today the soup seems to be extra delicious.

The speech retains the npc's usual cloudy style.
Zhu Shuse: "What is not suitable?"
Because yesterday's work caught my eye, the old man had a good impression of her, so he added one more sentence: "Be careful with the hollow wood, it is easy to hide bad luck inside."
The weather outside was not suitable for going out at all. At first it was just cloudy, and then it was very windy.
No one has been to the place beyond the hotel, Qi Tianhe asked the old man for a big bag, stuffed all the plaster statues and tablets in it, and walked with Baichan.
If she didn't bring her younger brother with her, Zhu Shuse would be a lone traveler in the dungeon more often, walking behind the two of them not too far away.
After estimating the distance, the possibility of the other party hearing the soft conversation is very low, Qi Tianhe whispered: "Is it scary when I went crazy last night?"
Bai Chan seldom kept the secret from him about excluding the man in the bandage: "The group was almost wiped out."
Qi Tianhe: "Then what is Zhu Shuse drawing?"
If the team destroys her, she will be out of the game. There is no need for an old player to make a decision that harms others and does not benefit oneself.
"Maybe it's because of you." Bai Chan pondered for a moment before giving a guess.

What frightens people is always the unknown. He may not care about his background and past, but he is afraid of losing his mind and becoming a killing machine.
"I'm here," Bai Chan seemed to know what he was worried about, but his calm tone could bring people an inexplicable sense of peace of mind: "Don't worry."
"That's what you said last time," Qi Tianhe said helplessly, "and you were arrested for stealing hair that day."
He swore that when he said this, he clearly saw Bai Chan's eyelids twitch.
"Forget about that." The calm tone finally gave birth to waves.
Qi Tianhe turned his head away, trying not to laugh in front of the other party is already a great self-cultivation.
Walking forward for about 600 meters, I finally saw a small piece of lowland. From here to the forest, I had to pass a relatively steep slope. When Qi Tianhe jumped down, I looked up and observed that it was almost the same height as ordinary burials.

The brain circuits of both sides were connected because of this sentence, and the four horror story lovers temporarily gave up the dangerous method and turned to observe seriously.
There was a sudden curse from behind——
"Fuck!"
When Zhao Nangui came down the slope, he lost his footing and hit a tree in front of him, which instantly fell down.
Qi Tianhe was standing in front, and quickly stepped back, the dry tree trunk hit the ground, splashing a burst of choking dust.
Zhao Nangui didn't care about hitting the mud on his body, remembering the old man's advice to be careful with the hollow wood, his face was very ugly.Walking to the tablet that was thrown out, he pursed his lips tightly.
He was pulled down by an invisible force just now, causing him to fall... That hand happened to be holding the tablet.
"Are you okay?" Qin Rang then jumped down to pretend to be caring, but his tone was gloating.
Qi Tianhe vaguely understood something, and then walked as close as possible to Bai Chan, so that one party would be able to help in time if there was an accident.
Baichan: "There are a few thicker trees ahead, go there."
Qi Tianhe nodded, and said as he walked, "Qin Rang's hair seems to have grown a lot, and some small movements are more feminine."
It just so happened that General Wu was also here. He didn't even touch the tree with the corner of his clothes, and controlled the paper-cuts to stick on the bark. His relaxed state was in stark contrast to the others.
"Assimilation," the witch general said, turning his head, "it means that the process of assimilation is completed. If you are lucky, you will face several ghosts in a row at the end."
Even if Qi Tianhe doesn't have a lot of dungeon experience, he knows what bad luck means... Qin Rang, Wang Chang and others have been completely reduced to Ahuai's nourishing Gu, and the time has come for the female ghost to devour them to strengthen themselves.
That kind of Gu King type ghost, all players may not be able to deal with it together.
The paper figurine suddenly clings to a tree, the witch general walks over to put his ear close to the tree trunk, shakes his head quickly, and the paper figurine continues to investigate.
They all stayed in an area, and they really found someone who didn't know who the tree was. Qi Tianhe looked around, and there were people next to the trees that were a little more energetic.Just as he was thinking about how to detect it, there was a sound of heavy objects falling to the ground not far away. Zhu Shuser and the man in the bandage cut down a tree one after another, both of which were solid.
The witch general also seemed to have discovered something, making a choice between the two trees.
Qi Tianhe tried to find some patterns, but he was still half a beat behind without any props.During the period, he glanced at Bai Chan, who was casually looking at the sky, as if he was trying to figure out when it would rain.
Knowing that he had a plan in mind and was waiting for himself to make up his mind, Qi Tianhe went back to the slope to observe the overall effect.
The few trees that were felled before are generally gathered in the south, and the collapsed trees have not been transported away. If it is not for the visual deviation caused by light and shadow, Zhu Shuse and others have selected only a few trees with reddish bark, and the surface very smooth.
According to the same standard, I turned around inside, and found a total of six or seven such tree species.
The line of sight wandered, and Bai Chan said at this time: "Don't just look at the tree, but look at what is buried under the tree."
Inspired, Qi Tianhe took out a small shovel and carefully dug the hole. The roots of the tree were very shallow, so he didn't dare to use too much force to prevent the tree from being broken.It didn't take long for the shovel to touch something hard, and after a little prying, it turned out to be a hand bone.
Ordinary white bones are very common in the dungeon world, but this hand bone is different. There are many black water droplets on the joints, as if they have been soaked in water in the past.Qi Tianhe squatted down and took a closer look to make sure that it wasn't because of the pollution of the soil, the water droplet itself was as thick as ink.
Taking a few steps back, he boldly dug a little deeper, and the soil underneath was almost completely black. Qi Tianhe always felt that this scene looked familiar.
After changing the land several times in a row, I finally found nothing under the last tree.
Bai Chan walked up to him and nodded.
The two looked at each other and cut down the tree together. The tree fell to the ground without too much effort.
Qi Tianhe: "I'm afraid the master can't use this material to carve."
As he spoke, he picked up some dead branches from the side, made a pose and said, "Do you want to stick it with some glue to make a stickman?"
Bai Chan: "The craft of carving is not important, the key lies in the process."
I pressed the tree trunk with my hands to test the softness. By the way, "These trees are all covered with the same breath. After a long time of contact, it will be useless when you use props to attack ghosts."
Qi Tianhe thought of his most practical props very realistically: "Is it the same for [Old Banknotes]?"
Bai Chan made an analogy: "The props are restricted by the rules and cannot harm the player, just like sticking ghost charms on you is useless. After you and the ghost have the same breath, the ghost will be automatically classified as harmless by these props."
Qi Tianhe was thoughtful, Wang Chang must have made sufficient preparations last night, and he still got the point, maybe it has something to do with the failure of the props.
Veteran players generally have two special skills: picking locks and playing with knives.
While they were talking, the sculptures of the people over there had begun to take shape, and Zhu Shuse's movements were the most agile, and the sculptures were lifelike.The rest are just the opposite, and their subordinates have reservations. Under normal circumstances, a body that is too perfect is more beneficial to ghosts than players.
Qi Tianhe couldn't understand her operation more and more. Zhu Shuse seemed to be more active than the old man in the hotel in the matter of resurrecting Ahuai.
"Is there any connection between her and ghosts?"
The tone is not too sure, if there is a connection, it should be more concealed.
Bai Chan: "I will always know."
Something seemed to come to mind between the words: "Move the trunk back first."
When going uphill, Qi Tianhe saw Qin Rang smile at him, with resentment and hatred mixed in it.
"Don't pay attention to him," Bai Chan said, "It's because of the female ghost's influence."
The two of them carried the tree together and walked to the hotel. Qi Tianhe was still thinking about Qin Rang's distorted smile, and coughed: "The female ghost's arm...doesn't shed its limbs naturally, does it?"
Bai Chan showed no expression: "It's not important."
The tree was temporarily placed on the side of the hotel. He went to the kitchen to replace it with a bigger machete, and directly divided the tree trunk into two, half for each person. The living white cicada was almost carved by one hand.
Qi Tianhe: "Will you follow in the footsteps of Wangchang?"
Wang Chang stole Xiaoxi's posthumous work, and asked someone to engrave it for him, the essence is the same.
Bai Chan shook his head: "This morning, the old man didn't emphasize that the body must be made according to his own wishes." After a pause, he warned: "The female ghost's arm was easily broken last night, and it is also related to her not fully recovering her strength. Every day, her strength will increase several times."
The implication is to be mentally prepared.
The sawdust was flying around and the air was not good. It took at least three or four hours to finish the rough carving of two works.
Bai Chan asked him to go back to the house to rest or go around nearby. It was daytime, as long as he didn't die, knowing that he stayed away from the small forest just now, it was unlikely to trigger the death rule.
Qi Tianhe felt that between the lines in the other party's words seemed to be hinting at something.
Seeing him standing still, Bai Chan simply said: "The female ghost is still weak during the day, and she was afraid of you after being injured before."
Qi Tianhe understood: "Let me disgust her? Reason with Ah Huai."
I think it's time to upgrade the Beep skills.
Baichan: "To know the connection between the female ghost and Zhu Shuser, as well as the puzzles about you, Ah Huai will be a good breakthrough."
A brand new way of thinking was in front of him, and Qi Tianhe's eyes shone brightly: "It makes sense."
When he was walking towards Xiaotupo, Bai Chan suddenly said: "Ghosts have a limit to their patience, don't be stubborn."
Qi Tianhe waved his hand, expressing that he would pay attention to propriety.
There was no one around Xiaotupo. When he approached, the locust tree branches that were swaying in the wind suddenly stopped, so lifeless that they almost didn't write their disgust on the branches.
"I want to talk to you about life."
Qi Tianhe sat down at a relatively safe distance: "The ancients said that Wan Muchun is in front of a sick tree. Although new things will replace old things, it generally refers to new lives with positive meanings. You can't do it..."
After a long talk, the branches swayed slightly, and there were small and weird sounds in the tree hole. The overly long nails protruded from the hole at some point, grabbing the bark outside, and he stopped at the right time, knowing that he was about to step on the other side bottom line.
Qi Tianhe didn't give up just yet, but took out the 【Chewing Gum】 that had never been used in the dungeon.He still clearly remembers the introduction of this thing: refreshing all day long, it can make NPC feel good about it.
There is no fraud in the introduction, and the word "whole day" is specially noted in the column of time limit.
Qi Tianhe opened the package, and after chewing twice, the thing suddenly became extremely hard in his mouth, like a hard fruit candy, and he could only hold it in the end.
He cleared his throat and continued to sing like a poet: "The hazy weather can't hide your innocent smile. The darker the moment, the more you must awaken the truth, goodness and beauty in your heart..."
There is reason in the admiration, forcibly improving the favorability of the npc and using the beep skill, using the two heavens of ice and fire to describe this feeling is considered light.
It lasted until noon, when it began to rain lightly, Qi Tianhe stood up: "I'll go back and have a meal first, and I'll come to you in the afternoon."
Almost at the door of the hotel, Liu Tianming happened to have just entered, and habitually looked at the side of Tupo: "I remember that tree sprouted a few new shoots yesterday."
It seems to be gone now.
Qi Tianhe's face remained unchanged: "Maybe it's malnutrition."
He sat at the round table early, and Bai Chan walked over after washing his hands: "How is the communication?"
"I did everything as you said," Qi Tianhe: "But I didn't talk about the main point, I just finished the preparations."
Bai Chan nodded without asking further questions.
Qi Tianhe had to be careful not to swallow the sugar for a bowl of noodles in clear soup that was nothing new, and he didn't eat a few mouthfuls in total.
Zhao Nangui has been in a trance since he knocked down the tree in the morning, always thinking that there is an unknown force dragging him, but now the situation has improved a bit, when he just relaxed and had a meal, the bowl suddenly fell from the table, and the soup spilled all over.
Zhao Nangui quickly stood up, cursing and saying, "If you want to kill or cut at will, why are you disgusting?"
Two days ago, no player was as unlucky as him.
Qi Tianhe handed over a piece of paper: "Perhaps the ghost is not in a good mood right now, please understand more."
**Ghost felt that this didn't sound right, so he couldn't say it.
Qi Tianhe was the first to go out after eating.
He stood alone under the locust tree, looking at the figure alone from a distance, the picture was discordant and poignant.
The man in the bandage glanced at Bai Chan with his eyelids raised.
The latter said calmly: "I let him go."
Bai Chan is surprisingly cruel and true in a certain way. He feels that even if the sky falls, he must tell Qi Tianhe first, at least let him know why he suffered, instead of being pushed forward by others and fate in speculation and surprise Walk.
……
Sometimes the breeze blows, sometimes the wind blows.
With disheveled hair, Qi Tianhe sat under the tree and continued to talk about life and ideals with the female ghost in the tree hole.
[Chewing Gum] and Beep skills are superimposed, and the female ghost can't help but feel good about the people outside when she wants to vomit. Suddenly, she suddenly thinks that the other party once stood coldly in front of her, like a demon climbing up from hell.
Ghosts instinctively worship and fear more powerful forces, and she is no exception.
Qi Tianhe suddenly asked: "What is your relationship with Zhu Shuse?"
Fearing that the ghost would not know her name, she deliberately added, "It's the only woman left."
After several hours of mental torture, the female ghost just wanted to dismiss him early, and the cold tone made the scalp tingle: "It's okay, but I seem to have seen it somewhere."
Qi Tianhe asked a few more tentative questions, but seeing that he couldn't ask anything, he changed the topic: "Then have you seen me?"
The female ghost doesn't know why.
Qi Tianhe said under the condition of ambiguous part of the information: "You should be able to see that I can't control myself occasionally."
As he said that, he closed his eyes, the rain dripped from his forehead, and his trembling eyelashes showed a trace of fragility.
The strange thumping sound interrupted his sadness, Qi Tianhe hurriedly took a few steps back, looking at the locust tree vigilantly.
"My memory and strength have not fully recovered." After a long time, a faint voice sounded from inside the locust tree: "You can come to me after midnight."
The female ghost threw out the bait, but Qi Tianhe hadn't decided whether to take the bait yet.The power of the ghost after midnight must be much stronger than it is now. Maybe the female ghost herself doesn't know anything, just to let him seek his own death.
The rain intensified in the afternoon, and the old man set up a temporary shed outside. With a hoarse voice, he went to the grove to call the players who were still carving, and waited for everyone to arrive before starting to judge everyone's works in advance.
Because of what happened yesterday, he had a very bad impression of Qi Tianhe. First, he praised the works of Qin Rang, Zhu Shuser and others without hesitation, and then made a harsh evaluation of Qi Tianhe with a critical eye: "Too slender, and plaster head Doesn't match..."
Anyone can guess that if the old man continues to talk, Qi Tianhe will be the last one for today.
The fact is also true, even though Bai Chan deliberately shoddy his work, the old man still directly gave Qi Tianhe the last place.
"You have already lost the entry quota for the adventure event," the old man said grimly: "Please leave in time."
Unlike last night, the old man did not know what to rely on today, and his tone was confident.
There was silence outside, and everyone had different thoughts.
At this moment, the game prompts the sound:
[Story: Difficulty s.
Reason for downgrade: An important npc, Ah Huai, has a good impression of a certain player. ]
Then the game prompt sounded again:
[Parameter error.
This dungeon is an auto-upgrade dungeon of difficulty, and is trying to restart for the first time. ]
[Story: Difficulty s-
Reason for relegation: Important npc Ah Huai's favor towards a certain player continues to rise. ]
[Parameter error.
This dungeon is an auto-upgrade dungeon of difficulty, and is trying to restart for the second time. ]
……
In the weird atmosphere, Bai Chan asked, "What did you do?"
Qi Tianhe was stunned: "Just as you taught me, give a date with a stick."
On second thought, could this be the legendary Stockholm Syndrome?
The female ghost finally developed a love-hate relationship when she wanted to vomit and couldn't control her affection?
When everyone heard the words, they all stared at Bai Chan with indescribable eyes, and Zhao Nangui couldn't help but muttered, "Abetting a crime."
It was only at this time that Qi Tianhe realized the thumping sound from inside the tree trunk, which turned out to be the sound of a heartbeat.
