[My God, why did he die? ! 】

[You didn't read it carefully, did you? The player who died just now is the Seventh Prince in the game, and the Seventh Prince was stabbed through the heart by a stabbing sword in the palace.The system said that the damage he received in the time node before the end of the game will not be erased. Now it is obvious that the damage he received in the node was reflected on his body, so he died. 】

[The RPG mode is like this. If you die in the dungeon and return to the round table, you will not be able to live. There is no possibility of infinite life extension. 】

[Why did a node end like this, why didn't I understand anything, who was the one who assassinated that young master Xiang?Why did the ghost with the faces of different people push Shiyu into the pool back then? 】

[The player who made the face-skinned ghost is not only Shi Yu, but also Wu Er, Xu Xian and Tang Linchuan, for no apparent reason.After thinking about it for a long time, I couldn't figure out how they provoked that ghost, and I didn't find any obvious commonalities between them. 】

[Now I really think everyone is a bad person, and I think there is a conspiracy in everything. The emperor's prime minister Sheng Yuantang told Yan Chao Dacheng Da Zhou Daxia... Gan, I have already started taking notes. 】

[This is why I hate the copy of the game with the ancient background the most. There are so many twists and turns in it that it can make you suffer from intensive phobia. 】

This is also the system message update:

[The next time node for release is two hours later]

【Countdown 2:00】

As soon as the number came out, it jumped to 1:59.

The small secret room was silent for a moment, but the chandelier above the head was working tirelessly. The bright but not dazzling light spread down, but it couldn't bring any warm feeling to people.

It was a female voice who broke the silence first: "Before the discussion begins, I would like to ask everyone, has anyone else seen him in the game?"

The "he" she pointed to was the male player on the ground whose heart had been stabbed.

Everyone looked at each other, but no one jumped out.

It was another male player who discovered the hidden meaning in her words: "Anything else?"

"Yes." Xu Xian said generously, "My identity in the game is the eldest princess. I met the deceased at the banquet. He is the seventh prince in the game."

Before she could continue, Qu Liannian, who was sitting opposite her, said, "Is he the Seventh Prince? The one who was pierced through the heart by an assassin's sword?"

"It looks like you've heard about it too." Xu Xian looked directly at him, "To receive the news so quickly, I guess your official position in the game is not low?"

Qu Liannian hesitated for a moment, and admitted: "I am a special investigator, and the matter of the Seventh Prince's murder was entrusted to me."

In Xu Xian's words: "Master of Dali Temple?"

Qu Liannian: "..."

To be honest, in this kind of place, it doesn't feel good to have your identity revealed directly.

"Looks like I guessed it right." Xu Xian glanced down at the corpse beside her, "The one who killed him was a ghost with many different faces on his face."

The male player who questioned her first raised his head suddenly: "I've met that ghost too!"

Xu Xian: "What did it do to you?"

Tang Linchuan: "I was poisoned in the soup I drank. Thanks to the servants around me who used silver needles to test the poison for me, I didn't get caught."

Xu Xian was thoughtful: "Has anyone else seen that face-skinned ghost?"

This time there was no answer.

"Using hidden weapons, assassination, and poisoning all sound like actions with the help of external objects, and as long as you are vigilant enough to escape, it is actually not too dangerous. But it is not clear whether it can do anything to the player itself. "Xu Xian tapped on the edge of the table with her fingers, her gaze swept across the people present from left to right, "Second thing, everyone should have heard about the assassination of Young Master Xiang's family, right?"

The air is slightly stagnant.

"Don't be so nervous." Xu Xian said lightly, "This game is an RPG mode, and the scope is so large that it covers the capital of Dacheng Kingdom—it may even involve many different countries in the later stage, even if you get the identity in it as the emperor. You don’t have the ability to understand things around the world, can you? Besides, the system reserves two hours for us between each release, what do you say these two hours are for? It’s for us to exchange information and discuss.”

The few remaining people looked at each other in blank dismay.

"I didn't ask you who are you in the game right away, but I told all of you that my identity is the eldest princess. This is my sincerity." Xu Xian said, "I don't care if we will become rivals in the later stage , but we should unite in the early stage, I believe everyone should not be difficult to understand."

After a long while, it was Tang Linchuan who spoke again: "I am a Taiwei in the game, so someone specially tested the poison for me."

Taking the initiative to reveal your identity is equivalent to showing favor.

Two hours was too short, everyone discussed for a while, and found that in terms of the case, the information everyone had was not very different from what they knew.

To put it bluntly, it's useless.

Qu Liannian, as the Minister of Dali Temple, naturally received the most inquiries. Unfortunately, he himself did not know what to ask, and sent everyone else away one by one. His face was full of complaints, but he remembered what he said to Shi Yu in the palace. The short meeting, and the words that the other party said.

They might not be able to figure it out on their own, but if it's Shi Yu...

Thinking of this, he sneaked a glance in the other party's direction by observing the crowd.

Then he met the gaze of the female devil who poked the blind man's eyes at the beginning of the game, and quickly retracted it in fright.



While others were discussing, Shi Yu was sleeping on the table.

The girl beside her turned her head and called twice without getting a response, so she simply reached out and poked the back of his hand: "Shi Yu."

The temperature is so hot.

Shi Yu was silent for a few seconds before opening his eyes: "What?"

"You have a fever?" Wu Er touched his forehead with the back of his hand, but he avoided it, "Is it because you fell into the water yesterday?"

Shi Yu just shook his head without answering.

"Isn't it?" Wu Er was very persistent on this issue, "Why is that?"

Shi Yu's palms were covered with sweat, his eyes were heavy, and he didn't look up at her: "It has nothing to do with you."

... If it weren't for his beautiful eyes, she would have passed by now.

Wuer opened his cute almond eyes: "I have learned how to look, smell and ask, mind if I take your pulse?"

"mind."

Wu Er said "Oh": "When the game starts next time, can I go to your house to find you?"

"that is your freedom."

Wu Er was about to speak.

Shi Yu then added: "Seeing or not is my freedom."

"..."

Wu Er touched the scalpel in his sleeve, and thought about whether it would be better to take out fresh eyes now, or to kill the person first without struggling, and the eyes taken out would be more complete.

She stared into the opponent's eyes for three seconds, considering which posture to use for the knife: "I heard someone mention it in the palace, the emperor actually doesn't value the prime minister as much as he appears."

When it came to serious matters, the other party finally remained silent.

Wu Er lowered his voice, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Just like in the early court this morning, the prime minister said that it was unruly for you to be absent because of a trivial matter, but the emperor said that you were just sick, so take care of your illness and don't be brave. .”

The blade of the scalpel slid down and touched the girl's fingertips: "They all said that the emperor valued you more."

Shi Yu raised his eyelashes, and his eyes collided: "Wuer."

"Ok?"

"When I fell into the water, you asked what happened to me, which means that you didn't know that I was pushed down. If this is the case, why did the maid who ran to call for someone and the guards who rushed over knew that someone had done it?"

She has a meal.

"If you just saw me being pushed into the water, then you shouldn't be inconsistent in front of me." Shi Yu said, "Unless you saw me fall into the water and walked to the pool, what happened directly made you ignore it for the time being?" A little bit, just subconsciously pretending to be an innocent person who knows nothing in front of me. But in such a short time, what can you do?"

His eyes are insignificant when looking at people, but there is always an inexplicable lifelessness in his body.Not the rotten death of a corpse, but the lifeless death, the kind that can dissipate when the wind blows.

"You went after the man who pushed me into the water?"

Wu Er shook his hand, almost missing the knife in his hand.

Shi Yu looked down at the knife in her hand, then raised her eyes again, her tone didn't change much: "Pretending to be innocent is not for you."

"If this is your personal hobby, it belongs to your freedom; but if you just want to approach me in this way, I suggest you stop investing in sunk costs early."

Wu Er sat on the spot, stunned.

A long time ago, someone looked directly at her with a knife hidden in her hand like this, and said, "Pretending to be good is not for you."

She still remembered that the man had very, very beautiful eyes.

No wonder, she thought.

She should have gouged out his eyes when she first saw him, but she compromised and subdued time and time again.

She thought that she just wanted to see him alive and able to move and talk, but in fact, if she really wanted to kill him, it was impossible to wait until now.

She just couldn't do it.

【Countdown ends】

[This release node: the first year of Xuanli]

【The release will start soon, please wait】

The round table chamber disappeared again.

Pain, heart-piercing pain.

Shi Yu closed his eyes for several seconds, then opened them again, and finally saw the environment he was in clearly.

Dirty, dark, depressing, and bloody.

It's a dungeon.

He was shackled hand and foot, and was wearing a prison uniform, which was stained with blood.

From the 73rd year of Chengli to the first year of Xuanli, the once-favored doctor Yushi was once a prisoner. What happened?

Shi Yu sat on the ground for a few seconds, stood up with the support of the wall, the iron shackles under his feet rubbed against the stone bricks, and the sound echoed clearly in the deep dungeon corridor.

There are jailers guarding the cell not far away.

I heard that the identities of the detainees in this group are terrible. The people above told them that they must be vigilant at all times. When they heard the sound, they rushed to the cell where the sound came from, and grabbed the saber: " What are you doing?!"

Shi Yu stood out of reach of their long knives, blood dripped from the hole in the wrist bone pierced by iron nails, and dripped down the blackened ground along his fingertips: "Emperor Cheng has been betrayed?"
