Early morning.
After getting up, Xiaobai and Yuqian went downstairs together and went outside the main building.
There was snow everywhere else, but the two or three meters around the building had been cleared, revealing the hard ground.
A corpse lay there alone, face down, and one could only see a large amount of blood flowing from her body. After a cold night, the blood had already turned black and dried.
"Is this the nurse? I remember her name was Xiaozi?" Xiaobai shook his head with some regret. "Life in this dungeon is so fleeting."
Yuqian sighed softly, "If the weirdness really came to the real world, I can't imagine how many people would die."
The real world will become a huge copy, but the only way to pass the level is to kill all the monsters. Only in this way can you get permanent safety.
That is why the imperial court and the aristocratic families of the mystic arts vigorously cultivate mystic masters and ghost hunters, hoping that one day they can completely eliminate them.
"It's not certain whether we can live to see that day." Xiaobai showed a bitter smile, "I'll go tell the others about Xiaozi's death."
Inside the main building.
The players had all gotten up one after another. When they saw the two coming back, they all turned their eyes to them. The meaning was self-evident: they were waiting for them to tell them about the situation and discoveries outside.
"The one who died was the nurse named Xiaozi. She fell to her death."
Most people had an expression of expectation.
There was such a loud noise last night that even if they had fallen asleep before, they would have been woken up by the sound. They just lay in bed and dared not move.
Now no one can be sure what is so strange about this dungeon. Players with dungeon experience will avoid the strange killing rules they have encountered before.
For example, the very common sleeping ghost.
So almost everyone knows that someone died last night.
"Only one?" someone asked.
Xiaobai nodded, "There's only one body."
Some people quieted down and had no more questions to ask, while others were still confused.
"I clearly heard two voices, why did only one person die?"
But obviously, no one will answer this question.
Footsteps came from the stairs.
Mo Qing, wearing a red hat, yawned as he walked into the living room and glanced at the crowd. "Where's my Ruoruo?"
Mr. Xiao Xu and others looked at him sarcastically and didn't bother to pay attention.
Those who had not spoken to Li Yang remained silent. Only Xiaobai and Yu Chong answered Mo Qing's questions.
"I didn't see her."
"I don't think he's up yet."
Mo Qing raised an eyebrow, changed direction, and went to the corridor on the first floor, "Then I'll go wake her up."
After he disappeared around the corner, the remaining people shook their heads in disdain and chirped softly.
Knock knock knock——
Knock knock knock——
Mo Qing knocked on the door several times, but no one responded.
He frowned, "Du Ruo? Are you awake?"
"Du Ruo?"
"Ruoruo? My little darling?"
After calling out "little baby", there was still no sound in the room, and Mo Qing's eyelids couldn't help but twitch a few times.
Oh no, did two people die last night?
No.
His shouting also attracted Yu Chong and Lao Wu.
"What's wrong?"
"She didn't respond?"
Mo Qing nodded, "Well, I wonder if something happened."
Hearing this, Old Wu showed a trace of worry on his face. He glanced hesitantly at the housekeeper's bedroom not far away. "Should we just kick the door? Is it even possible?"
"That's unnecessary. You might as well go directly to the housekeeper and ask for the key." Mo Qing patted his shoulder with amusement, "Don't be so rude. Be more polite."
"…"
Can't refute it.
Just as the three of them turned around to find the housekeeper, the door of the room behind them opened.
Li Yang, whose left cheek was red from sleeping, had already put on his clothes and was rubbing his sleepy eyes. When he saw three men standing at his door, all the sleepiness disappeared in an instant.
"?"
"What are you doing standing at the door of my room?"
Yu Chong took two steps back awkwardly to make room for more space. "Mo Qing called you just now, but you didn't respond. We thought something happened to you."
Hearing this, Li Yang turned his head and looked at Mo Qing.
Mo Qing's eyes were filled with a firm belief, and he looked at her sincerely and worriedly, as if the words "I'm worried to death" were written on his face.
Li Yang was wavering between complaining and not complaining. Before he could make a decision, the sound of quarreling came from the direction of the living room.
The four of them went over together and only heard Mr. Xu say "the body lying outside" and the housekeeper standing opposite him with a calm expression saying "please understand".
Li Yang thought that the weirdness of this copy was obviously much better. Unlike the weirdness of the F-level copy, they couldn't wait for the players to discover the corpses. They dragged the corpses away after killing them, as if they hadn't seen a dead person for 800 years.
Yu Chong asked other players and found out the reason for the quarrel - Mr. Xu was planning to go to Xiaozi's room to take away the supplies she bought, but the housekeeper showed up and stopped him.
"Everyone's dead, and it's a waste to leave all those supplies lying there without anyone using them. We're all players, so why can't we share her things?"
The butler, still looking worldly-wise, remained calm and composed. "You are the master's hired buyers. This trip is to purchase supplies for the manor. These items are only temporarily entrusted to you for safekeeping because of the game. So, if you die, the items will naturally be returned to the manor."
Mr. Xu was stunned for a moment, anger appeared on his face, "You fucking..."
"Um?"
The butler just made a subtle questioning sound, and Mr. Xu immediately stopped talking. Not only that, his bodyguards and followers didn't even dare to speak.
Who made this thing in front of them so weird? Maybe it was the kind of weird thing that could be an NPC and kill people. They didn't dare to take the risk.
If you are targeted by a weirdo, then there is really hope.
Seeing their collective silence, the butler didn't waste any more words and turned to go upstairs.
Mr. Xu looked at his back and spat quietly but viciously, "Damn it, you filthy bastard are trying to act like a bully to me."
"Mr. Xu... stop talking." One of the bodyguards carefully pulled him and pointed at the stairs with his eyes.
The housekeeper glanced sinisterly at Mr. Xu and then went upstairs.
It was obvious that the other party heard what he said.
"…"
Mr. Xu cursed inwardly, but pretended to be calm on the surface. "What are you afraid of? Could swearing at someone be considered a strange murder rule? I didn't mention anyone by name."
The others saw through his pretense of strength and tried their best to go along with the performance.
"Haha, that's true. Mr. Xu is really smart!"
"You have to be so temperamental!"
Mo Qing quietly leaned close to Li Yang's ear and lowered his voice: "They are starting to flatter me without any sincerity."
Li Yang heard a hint of gloating in his tone, "It seems you are very happy to see this scene."
"No, no, no, I expected this to happen." He was very proud.
"You're really smart, should I give you an award?"
"Okay." Mo Qing was a little surprised, then smiled and held out his hand, "I knew you were still very cute. When will you give me the prize?"
Then Li Yang rolled her eyes at him and said, "I'll burn it for you when we get out."
"…"
Mo Qing blinked and repeated it in his mind several times before he realized what she meant, but when he came to his senses, she had already walked away.
So, the man shyly and loudly shouted in front of everyone: "Baby Ruoruo, don't worry about me so much. I know that my place in your heart is irreplaceable and incomparable. I am satisfied with your love! And I can't get it by burning it!"
[Oh my god, someone please capture this monster! ]
