Strange story player

Qin Manjiang thought through everything, including...the requirements for this ghost story game behind the opening remarks.

[Tomorrow at five o'clock in the afternoon. 】

[Arrived at Bailu Bay on time and headed to Butterfly Island. 】

[There is no game time limit. You cannot leave the island until you have solved the strange story of Butterfly Island. 】

[Anyone who is late will be deemed to have failed the game]

[Those who leave the island will be deemed to have failed the game]

[Those who die will be deemed to have failed the game]

[Game failed, erased]

Everyone was deceived, deceived from the beginning.

Because being late will be obliterated, but not being obliterated seems to mean that everyone has indeed arrived at Butterfly Island.

But what the game requires is to arrive at Bailu Bay on time and go to Butterfly Island.

There is no trap at all in this sentence, it’s just that they didn’t realize it…

Only Bailu Bay has an arrival time limit, and the requirement for Butterfly Island...is to go there.

The boatman's wooden boat stopped as it disappeared.

At that time, whether it was Qin Manjiang, Yan Xiao, or the other four people who arrived in advance, they all subconsciously believed that the ship had stopped and a strange place had appeared, that is, Butterfly Island had arrived.

wrong……

Qin Manjiang turned his head and shouted to Yan Xiao quickly: "Go to the water! Find that wooden boat! Get out of here! This is not Butterfly Island. Reaching Butterfly Island is our way out!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a giant arm fell from the sky and grabbed him tightly.

The strong squeezing feeling made Qin Manjiang suffocate directly, blood foam flowed from his mouth, and his internal organs were broken under the majestic pressure.

"puff--"

He was instantly crushed into a ball of minced meat, thrown into the mouth of the terrifying giant ghost, and swallowed.

Yan Xiao watched the three players disappear, and his expression became ferocious.

The time limit for the scalpel is different. He and Chen Yu still have nearly twenty minutes.

But Qin Manjiang and Youyu only had less than ten minutes left!

ten minutes……

Avoid the pursuit of the ghosts, run to the waterside, find the wooden boat, leave Bailu Bay, find the real Butterfly Island, and even rush to the Butterfly Island...

Can this kind of thing be done?

Even Yan Xiao felt a burst of despair in his heart.

It's impossible, time is too tight, it's completely too late.

Their death time has entered the countdown...

But at this time, the terrifying giant ghost looked up to the sky and howled loudly, and suddenly stopped moving!

————

In the belly of a huge evil ghost.

Even when he was torn apart and eaten by a group of monsters, he never lost consciousness.

But this time, he truly felt the terror of death...

It was as if his life disappeared out of thin air for a few seconds, and then, he suddenly woke up from the eternal silence and darkness!

"woke up?"

Yu Ruoli's voice sounded beside him.

Qin Manjiang turned around to look, and saw that the bloody flesh wall was constantly squirming, surrounded by broken limbs and bones, while Yu Ruoli and Chen Yu were both intact in Li Gui's belly.

The effect of that scalpel is simply amazing...

Qin Manjiang let out a breath and stood up, touching and pressing everywhere.

But I heard Yu Ruoli say: "It's useless. I tried just now and I can't get out."

Qin Manjiang put down his hand, but he didn't look at Yu Ruoli, but looked at Chen Yu.

"You should have known before us that this is not Butterfly Island, right?"

Chen Yu did not look at him. Instead, she lowered her head and covered her left chest with her right hand. There was a deep incision made by the doctor just now.

"Why did he still save me?"

Chen Yu murmured.

"What do you want to say? He likes you?" Qin Manjiang looked at her coldly.

"He just doesn't want to see anyone die in front of him. You are not special." Qin Manjiang said without mercy: "Frankly speaking, I think it is a waste that he is willing to save you, a person who doesn't want to live anymore. , no one can save it.”

Chen Yu lowered his eyes and suddenly smiled: "You are right."

She looked up at the bloody flesh wall with no sparkle in her eyes: "I couldn't hold on any longer. Yan Xiao was just a reason I found for myself worth living."

"Violent ghosts, curses, killings, frame-ups...an endless game of death," she looked at Qin Manjiang blankly, "do you think it makes sense to keep struggling to live like this?"

The meaning of living?

Qin Manjiang did not avoid her eyes.

After Lao Qin passed away, he also thought about the meaning of life.

When he saw Lao Qin's body, it was Qin Manjiang's first direct and close contact with death.

That night when he rushed home from school, he sat quietly next to Lao Qin's body. Lao Qin was lying quietly and motionless in the main hall.

He has not yet been laid in a coffin.

Relatives and acquaintances from the same village came one after another. They talked about the events of Lao Qin's life over and over again, and then began to cry like singing. While crying, they told about the past and future life.

After crying, step down and the next one will step up.

The people who left went to other rooms, and soon the tears disappeared, and they started to chat with their acquaintances.

At that moment, Qin Manjiang suddenly felt that life had no meaning.

Everyone comes with cries and leaves with cries.

Life is both long and short. No one can escape death. Once a person dies, the whole world has nothing to do with him.

Why do people still live? What is the meaning of life?

There is no answer to this question.

In other words, everyone has their own answer.

Facing Chen Yu's question, Qin Manjiang gave his own answer, which was also the answer he came up with after that night:

"Living is just living, it has no meaning."

"You ask me why I want to live..."

Qin Manjiang thought back to the few seconds when he was swallowed by the evil spirit and lost all consciousness.

"We have too long to experience death. In these short decades, of course we must live seriously."

This was just Qin Manjiang's answer. Chen Yu didn't seem to agree, but she didn't refute it.

"But this kind of life makes me feel depressed..."

She suddenly smiled with relief: "Catch it!"

She took out a prop from her arms and threw it to Qin Manjiang.

Qin Manjiang stretched out his hand to catch it firmly and looked down. This was... Zhong Xueran's Sanqing Bell?

No... the patterns on it are not that mysterious, and the overall shape is far less primitive than Zhong Xueran's Sanqing Bell.

"This is Dan Qing Ling, a one-time prop." Yu Ruoli recognized it at a glance. "It can allow three people to teleport to any place within the game range."

Qin Manjiang was startled. He looked at Chen Yu. There was no fear on the female lawyer's face.

"This kind of life is not what I want. Since I can't escape, let's end it."

At this time, Chen Yu's eyes became brighter, and she took out her mobile phone.

But her eyelashes trembled suddenly when she saw the phone.

"No death allowed."

It was a message from Yan Xiao before. It was sent when she faked her death last night.

There was a smile on her face, and her eyes were vaguely glistening. It seemed to be an accident, but she was also a little relieved. She stretched out her hand and typed word by word:

"No, enough is enough!"

send.

Turning on the front camera, her face appeared on the screen.

The giant ghost that was bumping forward suddenly stopped!

Yan Xiao guessed correctly, it was not Li Gui who actively chose who to be his "eyes", but the first person who saw his face would passively become its "stand-in".

And Chen Yu has always been this person.

The terrifying giant ghost immediately collapsed in the strong wind and fog!

It was forcibly put back into Chen Yu's body.

The bloated flesh and blood suddenly exploded, and Qin Manjiang and Yu Ruoli were instantly blasted out of their bodies!

Time...only three minutes left.

The wind suddenly picked up and the fog quickly dissipated.

Among the flesh and blood on the ground, Qin Manjiang and Yu Ruoli slowly returned to their human forms.

Qin Manjiang held Shan Qingling tightly and tried to stand up.

Yan Xiao rushed over and pulled him and Yu Ruoli out, but no matter how hard he looked, he couldn't find Chen Yu.

A breeze blew by, and the heavy fog that shrouded the entire island disappeared without a trace.

And the flesh and blood of the corpses all over the ground were gone.

Yan Xiao was startled. From this wind, he no longer smelled the smell of blood, only the faint fragrance of flowers remained.

The fog dissipated, and everything on the water revealed its true appearance.

It turned out that they were less than thirty meters away from where the boat was parked.

And on the side of the island, where the water was originally blocked by fog, it was clearly visible at this moment——

That's another island.

A... butterfly-shaped island.

Qin Manjiang didn't speak. He turned around and looked...

The fog in Bailu Bay finally cleared.

Chen Yu disappeared. The island was in ruins and no one was inhabited for a long time.

"jingle--"

He picked up the Danqing bell and shook it gently.

The figures of the three people disappeared instantly.

And the moment before they disappeared, the fog rose again!

A terrifying roar came from the fog.

Bailu Bay... is still Bailu Bay.

In their last glance before leaving, the three of them saw a thin female figure in a trance, turned around and walked into the heavy fog...
