Be the king in the infinite escape game

Chapter 8 [Old Rural Steamed Bun Shop] 5

Seeing Hu Duobei so flustered, Gu Runan hurriedly said: "Don't panic, I'm not sure."

He just felt that the system prompt would not lie.

"If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have come to such a crappy place!" Hu Dobe's voice sounded extremely regretful, "Which pervert thought up this dungeon! I will die if I eat, and I will starve to death if I don't eat. I just I just want to become a little whiter, as for suffering this kind of crime?"

Gu Runan was a little dumbfounded: "Your wish is really just to improve your skin color? Are you kidding me?" Discussing the topic of skin color in this kind of atmosphere always seems a little funny.

"You're a puppy! Is this very important to me?" Hu Dobe said gloomily.

"Because I was dark, I was ridiculed since I was a child, and they said behind my back that I was like a "coal digger".Some people are polite and don't say it to my face.But I know that they are all laughing at me in their hearts. "After Hu Duobei said this, he looked up at Gu Runan, "I also know that when you were eating just now, you were all secretly looking at me. "

Gu Runan looked away guiltily: "No—actually, your facial features are pretty." In order to convince him, he emphasized again, "I mean it from the bottom of my heart. Black skin is the coolest, don't feel inferior."

Hu Dobe stared at him for a second, then laughed out loud: "I know you are kind, so you don't need to comfort me. Anyway - everyone tells me to accept myself and learn to appreciate myself. This is the reason, but I still want to turn white."

He sighed: "I don't know if it's my illusion, I feel that my luck is affected by the color of my skin. My luck has always been very bad, like an African chief, no auspicious days and lucky crystals are useless. .In short, I want to change my life against the sky!"

"I want to become a handsome guy, I want to have a crush!"

Hu Duobei looked longingly, as if he had seen the grand scene in the not-too-distant future where he was surrounded by a bunch of beauties.

Gu Runan nodded in agreement. In this cold and eerie night, having someone to talk to could relieve his tension to a great extent.He asked casually, "What did you bring to climb the stairs?"

"Mirror." Hu Dobe raised his eyebrows, "I have a full-length mirror on my back. The mirror is 1.9 meters high and can reflect my whole body, so that my whole body's complexion can be refreshed. I recited No The 16th floor, I couldn't carry it anymore, so I put it down."

"No. 16th floor." Gu Runan rubbed his chin. He took the elevator to the top eighteenth floor. He also heard Xu You say that he was under No.17th floor, and Hu Duobei climbed to the sixteenth floor.

Then people with at least three floors will be assigned to the novice copy of the same difficulty.

However, he came up by "cheating", and didn't climb up by himself like this group of people. The staff who assigned the dungeon didn't even pursue this matter?Gu Runan felt a little weird.

"What about you? What is your wish? Now that you know about me, it's time to talk about your own." Hu Dobe interrupted his daze.

"Me." Gu Runan's voice softened, staring at the quilt, "I don't have a father, only a mother. She was seriously ill, and the doctor said there was no cure, so..."

Gu Runan didn't say any more, and the whole room returned to a deathly silence.

Hu Duobei choked for a few seconds, not knowing what to say, because he suddenly felt how insignificant his wish was.

When Gu Runan realized it, Hu Duobei had already started to cry, the tears were completely from the heart, and the moldy pillowcase was wet by him.

"Why are you crying?" Gu Runan asked helplessly. Hu Duobei looked older than him, but it might be because he was spoiled and not deeply involved in the world, and his psychological age felt younger than him.

"Gu Runan, woo woo, you are so miserable, I am so moved! Why are you so filial, you brat, you make me feel ashamed!"

"I've decided, isn't this a single-player dungeon? I won't fight with you anymore! I want you to win! Auntie's illness must be cured as soon as possible." Hu Duobei wiped his nose and choked up.

Gu Runan hurriedly walked over to pat him: "It's not so exaggerated, my mother is already under treatment."

"Anyway, I will definitely help you earn points." Hu Duobei took a few breaths, "Just say whether you want my buddy!"

"We still don't know what the dungeon mechanism is." Gu Runan said helplessly, "Is death in the dungeon the same as death in the real world? Where will we go if we lose this time? If the points are zero or negative What punishment will there be? We don't know about these."

"So, after listening to my one-sided words, you said that you want me to win, isn't it too hasty? What if I lied to you—"

Gu Runan was persuading, when suddenly he heard a violent knock on the door outside the door.The voice was extremely loud, as if the door was about to be smashed down:

"Bang bang bong bang bang bang bang—"

Gu Runan immediately stopped talking, and met Hu Duobei's eyes. Hu Duobei, like him, widened his eyes and flusteredly avoided the direction of the sound.

The knocking on the door continued, which seemed very scary in the quiet night.Accompanied by the sound of rustling rain and rumbling thunder outside, people's hearts are beating non-stop.

"Who is it?" Hu Duobei asked boldly, but the things outside just knocked on the door without half a response.

"Is there a problem?"

Still no one answered.

Seeing that there was no answer, Hu Duobei walked towards the door in bewilderment, trying to unlock the rusty door lock attached to the iron chain.Just now when he entered the house, he felt scared and put on the chain several times, just because he was afraid that something would break in in the middle of the night and eat them.

Gu Runan rushed over, pulled him out from behind, and said in a low voice: "Don't, don't, don't...don't open the door, you finally secured the door a few times, wouldn't it be useless if you opened it? Do you know whether the thing knocking on the door is a human or a ghost?"

Hu Duobei didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and turned to look at Gu Runan: "You are more courageous than me."

"Shh - don't talk." Gu Runan moved his lips silently, gesticulating, "Little-heart-heard-it-"

"Then-we-we-just-stand-in-here-don't-move-?" Hu Dobe also said with lips.

"Yeah." Gu Runan nodded, stood sideways by the door against the wall, picked up an ax in his hand, and listened to the movement outside.

From the gap at the bottom of the door, one could vaguely see a burly man standing outside. He hurriedly patted on this door, and went to pat on other doors, but none of them opened for him.

When the shadow outside the door passed, Hu Duobei couldn't help but smoothed his chest: "Fortunately, you stopped me and didn't let me open the door."

"Shh, it hasn't left yet." Gu Runan whispered.

The man slammed on the door outside for a while, and started to walk out to the field, muttering: "I am a carrot..."

"I am a carrot..."

The sound gradually became smaller with the distance, and it sounded like the person had already walked out.

"Tell me, is it raining so much outside, did he bring an umbrella?" Hu Duobei squatted on the ground, suddenly asked worriedly.

Gu Runan was speechless for a while: "That's not the point."

"Then what's the point?" Hu Duobei pulled Gu Runan to sit on the side of the kang, and asked his opinion, "He didn't sleep in the middle of the night, why did he go to the field? Also, why did he knock on our doors? You still say you are a carrot?"

As he spoke, Hu Dobe even rolled up his sleeves and smoothed his bristling hair: "Don't you think this is weird? My whole body is numb and I have goosebumps."

"He?" Gu Runan caught the familiarity and casualness in Hu Dobe's words, "You mean he's a member of our team?"

"Of course, can't you hear it? Isn't this the martial arts coach, Xing Wei!" Hu Duobei pointed to the door, as if it was an obvious fact.

Gu Runan murmured: "Oh, I don't know people well."

It was almost midnight, and there was another quarrel just now, and the active nerves of the two began to turn from an overly tense state to a deep exhaustion.

After no more conversations, the room returned to the atmosphere of grass and trees.There are obviously two people, but it makes people feel inexplicable fear.

After turning off the lights, Gu Runan couldn't sleep, so he simply walked to the window and stood in front of the window to look out.

The rain outside fell from the eaves like a rope, and was as clear as silver threads by the lightning.A muscular man stood in the field numbly, oblivious to the rain slapping on his body, and sluggishly used his feet to dig the wet soil under his feet.

It was indeed Xing Wei.What is he doing?

Gu Runan was extremely puzzled, felt that he had overlooked something, but couldn't remember it for a long time.

"It's getting colder, isn't it?" Hu Dobe tossed and turned on the old bed, the wood creaked, and he pulled the quilt over his head, "I'm going to count sheep and force myself to fall asleep. After waking up, a dangerous night has passed unknowingly, right?"

"Well, go to sleep."

Gu Runan couldn't sort out her thoughts, and didn't plan to act rashly, so she just ignored it and climbed back on the bed, tightly holding on to the corner of the quilt.

In less than a minute, after counting 1 sheep, Hu Dobe's breathing became even and he began to snore slightly.He wrapped himself in the shape of a zongzi, hoping to keep the ghosts out in all directions without any dead ends.

Gu Runan didn't dare to put on the quilt - his mind is now full of the scene in the horror movie "The Grudge", where the actors put on the quilt and saw the ghost lying on top of him.

His heart was beating wildly, like a heavy stone bouncing back and forth in his chest, and he was sweating profusely.

He felt that he had started to have a fever again. Sometimes his body felt like he was in a sea of ​​fire, and sometimes he felt like he had fallen into an ice cave, and he couldn't control his trembling.

In extreme exhaustion and trance, he fell into sleep.

He dreamed that he was walking down a passage.There is no light, only endless darkness.At the end of the corridor is a towering staircase.There were countless steps in that staircase, and it was so long that the sides could not be seen.

His back was very heavy, like carrying a lifeless and stiff dead person, but he couldn't put it down because he knew that it was his dearest and most beloved mother.

It seemed as if he had been carrying his back for a lifetime, but he was so tired that he stopped and fell asleep standing up.He had a very fragrant and sweet dream, only to be awakened by a gentle shaking.

Opening his eyelids, he was surprised to find that the heavy things behind him were gone. He was not carrying anyone, but a man was carrying him up the stairs.

The man's back was warm and broad, making one feel lazy and reliable, and the black hair wrapped around Gu Runan's fingertips, making his cheeks itchy.

"Brother Gu Lan, you have grown your hair long." He softly called out the name of the man, but the man turned his head to the side but did not answer.

He felt that his breathing was not smooth, and when he looked down, Gu Lan's long hair fluttered in the air like water plants, and stretched out like tentacles, strangling him tightly!

He shouted in panic, but his hair seemed to come alive, tightly wrapped around his neck, wrists, and ankles, knotted layer by layer.

Taking a closer look, it was clearly not Gu Lan's smooth black hair that was tied to him, but a black flocculent object, exactly the same as the "grass ash" in the field in front of the bun shop!

The author says:

Nannan: Wuwu, my little uncle wants to strangle me to death, even if he is a ghost, he will not let me go;

Gu Lan: .. What did my wife say?
