The NPC Was Once Again Frightened By Me

This sudden change completely woke up the drowsy two people.

After the mixed-race man handed over the note, the leading young man in white unfolded it in his hand and looked at it carefully.

"The so-called Yiren is on the water side...water?"

The man with the gun on the other side also came over and leaned over to take a look.The two whispered a few words, and the young man in white threw the note to the man holding the gun: "Ask them."

As he spoke, he knelt down and stared straight at the half-race man with his dark eyes.

Seeing the terrified look of the mixed-race man, he thought for a while, and thought that since these two could be regarded as his teammates, he also needed to be gentle with them.

... First of all, let them understand that all their actions are for the sake of their safety.

This was his first thought.

Moreover, a proper smile can also narrow the distance between them.

This is his second thought.

"Next, I have a few questions to ask you." Lin Huai said slowly and clearly, "For the sake of your life, I advise you..."

"Crack."

Under his feet, there was the sound of the threshold being crushed.

"Be honest." The young man added, showing a smirk, "Give out every detail clearly."

Mixed race man: ...

I don't know why, but I always feel that the person in front of me is extremely dangerous... Feeling the cold air rushing towards his face, he shrank back like a white-faced scholar who was robbed by bandits.

"Aren't you going?" Lin Huai cared for him, "Your feet are trembling, can't you stand up?"

Mixed race man: ...

He felt utter terror, and followed the shivering white-collar woman into the room.Lin Huai looked at their cooperating backs and showed a relieved (cold) smile.

Mixed-race male: Fuck me, I'm getting chills from behind...

Looking at his teammates trembling like quails, Chu Tianshu patted Lin Huai's shoulder: "Look at you scaring them..."

Lin Huai: "Am I scary?"

In Lin Huai's blank and ignorant (deliberate) smile, Chu Tianshu replied: "No, you are very cute."

Lin Huai: ...

Tsk, why does my face always feel a little red... He rubbed his face uncomfortably.Chu Tianshu added: "However, wait a while and pay attention to your attitude towards these two teammates. They don't seem to be in a good mental state."

"?"

"At least before they fall into a coma, we must find out all the information they know... Then, kill the ghost..."

The mixed-race man with pointed ears only heard a few words from Chu Tianshu.

Before coma?

Get all the information?

Then?

kill?

Combining with the behavior of the two before, the mixed-race man suddenly had a terrible guess.

Chu Tianshu's words increased Lin Huai's confidence in the communication between himself and his teammates.In the past, he, who never worked in a team, either treated his teammates as father and son, or treated his teammates as enemies, or treated his teammates as boyfriends.But today, facing these two terrified teammates, he felt that he might be able to have a good exchange with them, share information with them, and gain friendship.

He pulled up a chair and sat down, casually throwing the gun in his hand on the table.The female white-collar worker was standing by the side, but when she heard the sound of the gun and the slapping between the table, she suddenly hugged her head, trembling, and...

squatted down.

Lin Huai:?

He looked at the mixed-race man standing next to him, and showed an expression of "what's the problem with you two.jpg".However, what he didn't expect was that after meeting his suspicious eyes, the mixed-race man was silent for a moment, hugged his head, and squatted down slowly.

Lin Huai:? ?

Chu Tianshu also entered the room at this moment.He closed the door and looked at the confusing scene in front of him: "What did you do to them?"

Lin Huai: "I don't know, they did it themselves."

"...these two people." The mixed-race man looked at the two people who were talking, and whispered, "It is very likely that they are the kind of bandit-type taskers who don't care about their teammates for the sake of missions, and even kill teammates for exclusive experience. .”

The female white-collar worker looked at him in fear.

"I've seen such taskers before." He moved his lips and said quickly, "As long as they can complete the task and get the maximum benefit, they can do anything. I will explain that there are four islands, why? There are nine people... Among these two people, there must be one person who came in with the other person. They are a pair!"

Chu Tianshu looked at the two people squatting on the ground who were whispering, and asked Lin Huai in a low voice, "What are they talking about us?"

"Huh?" Lin Huai didn't put his mind on the two of them, and only heard their last sentence, "They said we are a group."

Chu Tianshu:?

…………

"Then what should we do?" the female white-collar worker asked in a crying voice.

"One step, one step." A calm light flashed in the mixed-race man's eyes, "Cooperate well with them, maybe there is still a chance..."

The two were still whispering, Lin Huai became a little impatient.But in order to maintain politeness, he still smiled first: "Hehe, you guys talk a lot."

Female white-collar worker: ...

"I just don't know if you have so much to say when you explain the problem later." Lin Huai decided to encourage them to speak later, "I'm looking forward to it."

Female white-collar worker: ...

She looked like she was about to suffocate.The mixed-race man looked at Lin Huai calmly: "If you have anything to ask, just ask."

Lin Huai was very happy: "That's a good relationship. If you cooperate, we can finish the job well."

Mixed race man: ...

"What do the words on this note mean?" Chu Tianshu squatted over holding the note, "What happened to you these few days? Why is your mental state so bad?"

His attitude was very sincere, which confused the half-breed man again.

"All of this..." he said slowly, "It all started three days ago."

The mixed-race man will tell what happened in three days.

Three days ago, they took a boat and came to Lanzhuang.Like Lin Chu and Lin Chu, they also lived in this small courtyard as bearers for their marriage.The servant told them that after seven days, they had to lift the bride who lived alone in the Orchid Court up the mountain and marry her to the mountain god who guarded Orchid Island.

Orchid Island is rainy all the year round, and it seems to be a ritual they used to pray to the mountain god for a peaceful year.The mixed-race man quickly realized that this "Lan" painting should be related to this sacrifice.

The Orchid Courtyard is guarded by many servants.The white-collar woman once tried to cliché, but saw moldy corpse spots on their hands-these boys are all ghosts!

Therefore, on the first day, they searched all over Lanzhuang in the name of visiting.However, what disappointed them was—not to mention painting, there was not even a piece of paper in the entire Lanzhuang!

"No paper?"

"Yes, there is not a piece of paper in the entire Lanzhuang... rice paper, straw paper, toilet paper, not a single piece of paper!"

The mixed-race man paused: "This is what we found out on the second day, but on the first night, the accident had already happened."

"What accident?"

"...We went to the Temple of the Mountain." The female white-collar worker hesitated, "The more they said they couldn't go, the more we felt that there was a problem there. So, at night...we went there, by the lake. Accidentally stepped on a stone and almost fell into the water. He saved me, and our clothes were all wet by the lake, after that..."

"Let's start, have a dream." The mixed-race man said lightly.

"In the dream, we seemed to be sitting in a sedan chair and being taken to the lake. The sedan chair bumped up and down, but our bodies seemed to be tied up by something and we couldn't move."

"After that, we reached the edge of the lake. No matter which direction we went, the lake would appear in front of my eyes again. So, I walked towards the lake and looked into it..."

The mixed-race man's voice trembled: "Then, I saw in that lake, struggling..."

"my little sister!"

"She was struggling and crying in the lake. I thought she was just the incarnation of a female ghost, yes, she was just the incarnation of a female ghost..." The mixed-race man pressed his temple painfully, "But she said that only What we knew between the two of us, she also said... that sentence."

"What?"

"My sister died in a game. She died in one room, and I was locked in another room far away. She fell into... a bathtub filled with... strong acid." He said slowly "She finally called me, and she said..."

"Brother, I'm in so much pain." The mixed-race man's eyes began to loosen, "I can see the bones in my thigh, I'm in so much pain...I don't feel any pain now, I finally don't."

After he said this, everyone fell silent.

They all understood the reason why this calm and skilled mixed-race man jumped into the trap without hesitation.

Even if he knows that all these are illusions, no one can remain indifferent when facing the biggest and saddest regret in his life.

Rather than saying that he fell into the trap of the ghost, it would be better to say that what he wanted to catch through this lake was himself...

The most powerless, most painful regret.

"I saw my most important person in the lake." The female white-collar worker said, "What I saw in the lake was my boyfriend. Three years ago he made an excuse to go downstairs to buy breakfast, but in fact he went to the opposite side secretly. The florist picked up the ordered roses...he originally wanted to propose to me and give me a surprise. But when he came back...an overloaded truck drove by..."

The female white-collar worker covered her face.

For a long time in the room, there was no human voice.

After a long time, Lin Huai suddenly sneered.

"This kind of demagoguery..." He looked at his pale right hand, "It's really low."

"Nice." He repeated the word, "It's too low. Playing with other people's hearts to get the results you want, this kind of thing..."

Chu Tianshu touched his back comfortingly.

"In that dream, we all stretched out our hands into the lake to save the people we valued." The mixed-race man regained his calm tone, "Then we were entangled by the curse."

"On the first day, we were woken up by water. We slept on a dry bed, but when we woke up, we were suffocated as if we were submerged in water. However, half an hour after we woke up, all the water, Disappeared."

"After that, as long as we fall asleep, we will be submerged in water. As long as we fall asleep, we will reach the lake. The woman in white is waiting for us by the lake. We also saw it when we were in the mountain temple. The back of that woman flashed past. Then, she would pull us into the water, and we could not resist. Unless some external force wakes us up, as long as we sleep, we will drown in our dreams."

The mixed-race man said, and said again: "We investigated the woman in white, and finally, we got her background."

"She is the younger sister of the owner of Lan Zhuang, Lan Xiang. Ten years ago, it rained heavily for years, and she was sent to 'marry' to the mountain god and thrown into the lake. After that, every year, the Zhuangzi would send a bride there to protect Lan Zhuang Ping An."

"The owner of Lanzhuang?"

Lin Huai and Chu Tianshu looked at each other, and they thought of one thing at the same time when they related to the fate of the owner of Meizhuang.

In Meizhuang, the painting they finally got was not on paper, but on a screen.It was a painting of revenge, painted with the flesh and blood of Meiying's enemy—her husband.

That being the case, Lan Xiang, the younger sister of the owner of Lanzhuang, is naturally the clue and ghost in this incident.And her anger and hatred should naturally be closely related to her cruel brother.

The "Plum" painting in Meizhuang is hand-painted by two people, and the "Lan" painting in Lanzhuang is roughly the same, and players need to draw it by themselves.Chu Tianshu asked immediately: "Where is the owner of Lanzhuang?"

"Lanzhuang has no owner."

The half-breed man replied.

"Three years ago, seven years after he gave his sister to the mountain god, the owner of the Lanzhuang village hanged himself." He said flatly, "The last thing he did before his death was to order all the papers in the Lanzhuang to be burned. His body... has also disappeared."

"Then who is in charge now? And who ordered the servants to bring the new girl to the lake...?"

The half-breed man paused.

"It's Lan Xiang."
