Chapter 11: Yin Fate (V)
This room is a traditional old house with no flooring, but cement flooring, which will cause dust to fly up with a slight sweep.
Qiao Yuan had read on a WeChat public account about health that inhaling too much dust is bad for the respiratory tract. If conditions permit, she still hopes to live in a healthy environment so that she can live longer.
The three of them worked together and finally swept the meat paste into the dustpan, and then poured it out of the window neatly.
After the meat paste was thrown out of the window, it was quiet for a moment, and then it seemed to react. The gurgling sound of the blood bubbles could be heard clearly even through the door.
Su Yan: "He cursed so filthy."
Song Yanchi actually nodded.
Su Yan was somewhat flattered to see Song Yanchi respond to her.
Qiao Yuan:?
Qiao Yuan: "You all can understand ghost talk?"
I haven't heard that this game has super powers. When did these two people evolve secretly without her knowing?
Su Yan said quietly, "We just talk based on the situation and the pictures."
Put yourself in her shoes. If she were treated like this, she would curse even more harshly.
The pool of meat paste also heard the discussion inside the door frame. Unwilling to believe it, it wanted to go out of the door frame again. However, as the sky turned white and the morning light shone, the meat paste could only disappear reluctantly.
This made Qiao Yuan, who had been paying attention to the situation over there, breathe a sigh of relief. His tense heartstrings finally relaxed a little, and he realized that the ghosts would disappear when day came.
Without the ghost, the three of them felt a lot more relaxed.
Song Yanchi asked directly: "How did you come up with this idea?"
Qiao Yuan was stunned for a moment, and when she noticed Song Yanchi's gaze towards her, she realized that he was asking her: "How?"
"I don't think this is a good solution. I just found that the place where this thing crawled was not corroded, but Su Yan's ankle showed signs of corrosion. So I guess this thing can only corrode people or things with signs of life, not objects, otherwise it could have melted through the door directly."
Although it was just a guess, the situation at the time did not allow Qiao Yuan to hesitate, so he decided to give it a try. Unexpectedly, he succeeded.
There was surprise in Song Yanchi's eyes.
Although this discovery sounds simple, under the circumstances at the time, the fact that Qiao had the mind to observe carefully and take immediate action was enough to surprise him.
After all, although he also discovered this at that time, the other party got there first before he could take action.
Both his observation skills and calmness are completely different from his performance on variety shows and when he first entered the dungeon.
But the other party’s performance in the variety show didn’t seem like acting.
Song Yanchi fell into deep thought.
Did the other party hit the mark by accident, or did he have a split personality?
Su Yan exclaimed: "Amazing!"
Because there was nothing to treat in the room, and the ghost had just disappeared, the few people did not dare to go out, so Su Yan's wound could only be bandaged with a torn sheet. Just now, she took a look and saw that the flesh mud had only been lying on her ankle for a few seconds, and the ankle had already peeled off a layer of flesh, and the bones were almost visible. It is conceivable what the scene would be like if Qiao Yuan was a few seconds slower and the flesh mud was completely on her.
Su Yan did not forget to thank Qiao Yuan: "Thank you..."
If Qiao Yuan hadn't acted in time, she would have injured more than just her wrist.
Qiao Yuan waved his hand casually and smiled: "It doesn't matter, saving you is equivalent to saving myself."
She wasn't being polite.
After all, she and Su Yan were very close at the time. If she couldn't think of a solution at that time, Su Yan would die, and she would be the next one. Saving Su Yan would just be a matter of convenience.
Although Qiao Yuan said so, Su Yan was still very grateful. No matter what, it was a fact that Qiao Yuan saved her.
What's more, if Qiao Yuan hadn't offered to keep watch, she would probably still be lying in bed with sleepy eyes when that pool of meat paste arrived.
At the same time, Qiao Yuan's image in her heart was completely overturned. He was a novice like her, but he behaved so calmly, breaking her solid label that he was just a pretty vase.
There was already a fangirl glow in her eyes, even more aggressive than the one she gave Zhou Lian.
Thinking of Zhou Lian, Su Yan's eyes also revealed some doubts: "Did I call too softly, or was Brother Zhou sleeping too soundly?"
“Why didn’t they respond?”
After calming down, she realized that Zhou Lian's room was quiet from beginning to end.
As if Su Yan had heard her thoughts, footsteps suddenly sounded outside the door, followed by a knock on the door: "I'm Zhou Lian, are you all right?"
The audience in the live broadcast room felt mixed emotions.
At the beginning, when the ghost screamed at the door and turned into meat paste and rushed into the room, the barrage was full of sighs and complaints:
[Qiao Yuan is calmer than I thought, he didn't even yell]
[You haven't reacted yet?]
[Science shows that people cannot scream when they are extremely nervous]
[But he also knew to cover other people’s mouths. This action instantly killed 50% of the people in the live broadcast room]
[Haha, this is nothing, everyone can do it]
[Qiao Yuan xswl, what the hell is it that he speaks dirty words like a human being? Is he talking nonsense because he is too nervous?]
[Fuck, that piece of meat is so disgusting, I want to vomit]
[Who is as miserable as me? I worked hard for an hour to cook and was ready to watch it while eating. Now I can’t eat anymore . I should have watched it when I was losing weight.]
[Alas, I feel like Song Yanchi is the only one who can survive in this room. The female player’s mental quality is too poor, so she deserves the low survival rate.]
[Yes, I hate being in a group with female players. They just keep yelling and making noises. It’s annoying to enter a dungeon in the first place.]
[It has nothing to do with the female players. It's just that they have bad luck. On the first night, they encountered a ghost. If Qiao Yuan hadn't been so stubborn at the beginning and directly chose Zhou Lian, there wouldn't be so many problems.]
[You are sick, not all female players are like this]
Just as the topic was about to go in a different direction, the comments finally fell into a brief silence when Qiao Yuan swept the meat paste away with a broom. It was not until someone reacted first and sent out the first comment that the other comments seemed to wake up and came one after another:
【？ ？ ？】
[What happened? Am I hallucinating because I was too sleepy?]
[I'm already stupid]
[No, how did Qiao Yuan come up with this idea?]
[It was a lucky coincidence. She wanted to find something to protect herself, but she didn't expect it to work. It seems like she is quite lucky.]
[After reading her analysis, I also think that she was just a blind cat that happened to find this by chance]
[Who said Qiao Yuan would die? Isn’t he still alive?]
[I said Qiao Yuan can definitely do it]
[I've become a fan of her. She's completely different from when she was on variety shows.]
[From a fan of her looks to a fan of her intelligence, I wonder if she took Melatonin after the first dungeon]
[I actually thought she looked pretty cool when she saved that new guy]
[You guys are exaggerating about this coincidence. You won’t get far in a dungeon just by relying on luck.]
[Yes, and this is only the first night. This ghost is obviously not the final boss of this instance. It must be easy to deal with.]
【Zhou Lian is finally here】
[I came here only after daybreak. I don’t think he’s that reliable.]
[Yes, a group of people just praised him crazily, which shocked me. No, everyone has never participated in a few dungeons, right?]
[Didn't you hear it? Or maybe it's a dungeon restriction? I don't think he's a bad guy.]
[Now that I think about it, when he told Qiao Yuan and the others before, he never mentioned the matter of keeping watch. It was Qiao Yuan who brought up the matter. How could someone who had experienced several dungeons not know about keeping watch? ]
[I finally remembered why I felt Zhou Lian looked familiar. I had seen him before in a newcomer’s live broadcast room. At that time, he told the newcomers that his name was Zhou Yuan. No wonder I didn’t remember him for a moment.]
【? Fake name? 】
[I don’t like to use my real name either. I feel it doesn’t sound good. I usually change my name in each dungeon.]
[No, no, no, that's not the point. The point is that everyone who refuted him or didn't listen to him died. He claimed to the newcomer that he had discovered the killing pattern of the dungeon boss, and said that the newcomer was being targeted. As a result, when the newcomer risked his life to find something that could save his life, he snatched it away and said that he was actually the one who was cursed.]
[??? I was shocked, what is this operation?]
[This is too bad]
[Now that you mention it, I feel like I've seen a similar routine in a newbie's live broadcast room, but I forgot who the participants were. I just remember that all the newbies in that copy died. Could it be the same person?]
[Except for special dungeons, isn't it forbidden for players to kill each other in other dungeons?]
[He didn't do anything, so he can only be considered to have indirectly caused the other person's death. Of course, he won't be punished by the system.]
[Wait, so this person named Zhou Lian or Zhou Yuan has been deceiving others with his hypocritical appearance? ]
[Now that I think about it, it seems that the middle-aged man just pushed him, and then he immediately fell off the car and died. This is too coincidental]
[It's terrifying to think about it. Aren't those new people following Zhou Lian very dangerous? ]
[I said Qiao Yuan was lucky. He rejected Zhou Lian by mistake. If he lived alone, he would be killed by ghosts at most. But if he followed Zhou Lian, he would not know how he would die.]
Because of the previous incident of the middle-aged male ghost knocking on the door, the three of them were much more cautious about opening the door, fearing that the middle-aged male ghost had transformed into someone else and come back to attack again.
Song Yanchi didn't open the door until he was sure that the person standing at the door was indeed Zhou Lian.
Standing at the door were not only Zhou Lian, but also several other people who lived in the same room with him.
When he saw that it was Song Yanchi standing at the door, Zhou Lian's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness, but his face was filled with genuine worry, "We heard some noise in your room, did something happen?"
Of course Song Yanchi could hear the hypocrisy in Zhou Lian's words and didn't want to pay any attention to him.
Su Yan wanted to say something, but Qiao Yuan's eyes were red before her: "Brother Zhou, you are finally here, you scared me to death!"
