Chapter 92 Hopeless Sea (Twenty-three) Winner
In the evening, the dining table was once again filled with fish meat full of fishy smell. Eight players sat in the center of the hall, holding bowls and chopsticks in silence. Eat on the ground.
Liu Yuhan quickly put seaweed into her bowl. This was the only dish she was comfortable with and willing to swallow.
Perhaps because there were fewer people competing, this time she grabbed less than half a bowl of seaweed. She silently put the rough, salty seaweed into her mouth, and from the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Zhang Hongfeng, who was engrossed in eating beside her.
This middle-aged man was hungry after working all day. At this moment, he kept picking up piece after piece of fish with chopsticks, stuffed it into his mouth, and chewed it selflessly.
He didn't even have time to spit out the thorns. He chewed them roughly a few times, swallowed the meat and bones, and then picked up new fish meat, as if he was afraid that someone would snatch it.
Liu Yuhan frowned slightly, stretched out her hand and tugged on the man's sleeve: "Uncle Zhang, don't eat it. I don't know what changed these fish."
Zhang Hongfeng's movements stopped. For a moment, her right hand was still holding the chopsticks tightly: "I'm so hungry, just let me eat a little..."
"Uncle Zhang, if you are hungry, eat seaweed," Liu Yuhan pushed her bowl towards the man In front of him, "You can leave tomorrow, you just have to bear it."
Zhang Hongfeng's cloudy eyes turned half a circle in his eye sockets and fell on the small half bowl of seaweed. He tentatively picked one up with chopsticks, sucked it in his mouth, and spat it out: "It's not delicious, but the meat is delicious..."
This state is definitely not normal! Liu Yuhan looked at the other players and her eyes fell on the long-haired girl directly opposite.
The girl with exquisite makeup was also stuffing fish meat into her mouth. Her small mouth was filled with things, her cheeks were bulging, and her beautiful face was distorted in a weird way.
Feeling Liu Yuhan's gaze, the girl's throat twitched, she swallowed the fish in her mouth, and looked straight at her: "Aren't you going to eat? If you don't eat, Lord Poseidon will be angry."< br>
Liu Yuhan swallowed and said word by word: "I eat seaweed."
"Seaweed is not delicious." The girl scratched the fish meat leaking out of her mouth with her fingers, and removed the yellow meat. The white bits were stuffed back into his mouth one by one, and the tip of his tongue licked the oily corners of his mouth, "This fish is so fresh, don't you try it?"
Her words were full of temptation, and Liu Yuhan felt that the hunger she had finally suppressed came up again, more intense than before.
But how can fish be delicious? It's obviously salty and fishy...
After hearing the girl's words, the little man hesitantly picked up a small piece of fish and put it in his mouth, smacked his lips twice, and narrowed his eyes in intoxication: " Sister Liu, you should eat some too, it’s not fishy anymore, it’s really not fishy this time.”
More and more players are reaching out to the fish on the table with their chopsticks, eating with relish, and sometimes using strange methods. He looked at Liu Yuhan with his eyes, as if he was wondering why she hadn't taken a bite of such delicious fish.
Liu Yuhan had a terrifying feeling, as if she was among ghosts and monsters, and she was the only human being in the dark night.
She looked at Lu Li for help, but this gentle-looking man also picked up the fish with chopsticks, slowly put it into his mouth, lowered his eyes and smiled: "Little girl, aren't you curious about the taste of mermaid? You can't eat it outside. What about these."
The calm words were full of bloodthirsty. Liu Yuhan's hair stood up, her voice was stuck in her throat, and she couldn't spit out a word.
"The game will be over soon." Lu Li put down his chopsticks, took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the corners of his lips, raised his eyes and looked at her with a smile, "You will never have such delicious food again. "
......
The entire fish feast was quickly swept away. Bai Yanduan burped, raised his hand to wipe his mouth, feeling satisfied with the meal. , staggering up the stairs.
Reason told him that there was something wrong with the fish on the table, and it was most likely caused by humans; but the taste of the fish was so good that once you took one bite, you would never forget it...
It's okay, anyway. The ship has been built and the dungeon can be cleared tomorrow, so what's the problem with a little indulgence before leaving? Bai Yanduan comforted himself, and vaguely heard light footsteps coming from behind him.
He was startled and turned around suddenly, only to see the long-haired girl with exquisite makeup looking at him with a smile and a sweet voice: "Yanduan, can we sleep together tonight? We will be parted soon. , maybe we will never meet again..."
"Ruozi?" Bai Yanduan called the girl's name uncertainly.
He clearly remembered that they had only known each other for a day, and they just collaborated to explore the bell tower, and they were far from being too close. Is it because of the suspension bridge effect? Is it easier to inspire love in a dangerous environment?
"Yanduan, are you okay?" Xu Ruozi suddenly leaned forward and hugged Bai Yanduan's arm.
Bai Yanduan has never been in love in real life, and has never even spoken to the opposite sex for more than ten consecutive sentences. This was the first time he was treated like this by a girl. His ears felt hot and his heart could not stop racing. Jump.
He recalled how he got along with Xu Ruozi. The two had the same views and had a pleasant conversation. In reality, their work and family situations were similar... It seemed that they were really suitable?
While hesitating, Xu Ruozi pulled him into the room in a familiar manner, closed the door with his backhand, and turned him over to press him against the wall.
"Gudong." Bai Yanduan heard the sound of swallowing saliva, not from himself, but...
Xu Ruozi's eyes were covered with bloodshot eyes, covered with a layer of light yellow shadow, like the eyes of a dead fish. She lay on Bai Yanduan's body, stretched out her tongue and licked his face, as if she was tasting some delicious delicacy.
Bai Yanduan is not unfamiliar with this kind of mood. At the dinner table, the girl also indulged in stuffing pieces of fish into her mouth and swallowed it.
She wants to eat me! Strong warnings of danger jumped wildly in his mind, and Bai Yanduan pushed the girl on him away.
The palm of my hand touched the girl's arm and it felt wet and slippery. He saw that the girl's skin was covered with white fish scales at some point, and they were shining in the dim light.
She is no longer human! She became a ghost!
"Would you like to go to the beach?" "Xu Ruozi" tilted his head and stared at the man in front of him, "Yanduan, would you like to go to the beach with me?"
Bai Yanduan's heart almost jumped out of his throat. , he turned the door handle with his backhand and rushed out.
The ground in the corridor was slippery, and the mucus of unknown composition mixed with fish scales covered the wooden floor. Bai Yanduan ran wildly, but he slipped a few steps and couldn't run fast.
The footsteps behind him were getting closer and closer, and his back was soaked with cold sweat.
Just when he was about to despair, a strong hand pulled him aside, pulled him into a room, and then slammed the door with a bang.
Bai Yanduan was about to scream, but the man who pulled him seemed to have expected it, so he covered his mouth and made a silencing gesture.
He calmed down and looked up to see Chang Xu's expressionless face.
……
Liu Yuhan sat alone in the room, holding the pen tightly, writing and drawing in the notebook.
The four deduction opportunities of "Monster Notes" have been used up. Now it is no different from an ordinary notebook. She can only use pen and paper to write some ideas and sort out the messed up thoughts.
She thought about last night, when she was mixed among ghosts and monsters, and amidst the weird songs, she hesitated whether to crawl like a ghost.
The young man holding the tape recorder noticed her and asked with a half-smile: "You don't want to die, right?"
No one wants to die. Liu Yuhan said in her heart. She doesn't want to die.
"You think I can save you, right?" This is the conclusion reached by the deduction of "Gaitan Notes", and Liu Yuhan is willing to believe in her own skills.
"You still want me to save Zhang Hongfeng, right?"
Yes, Liu Yuhan doesn't want the man who obeys her orders to die because of her wrong decision.
"As long as I can save you, you are willing to agree to anything, right?"
The words are laid out layer by layer, and the prey is lured into the trap step by step.
At that time, Liu Yuhan nodded blankly.
The young man lowered his eyes and solemnly declared: "I want your soul."
Last night, Liu Yuhan copied the unfair terms on the pages of her notebook, signed her name, and the system interface The status bar immediately added a line of [Evil God Follower] logo:
[You mortgaged your soul to the most evil evil god in the world, and from now on, your past, present and future will be controlled by him]< br>
But now, Qisi is clearly dead, why hasn’t the logo on the system interface disappeared? Doesn't it mean that the player's skills will become invalid after the player dies?
Is it because this skill level is relatively high and involves rules and the main god level?
Liu Yuhan was puzzled when a knocking sound suddenly sounded outside the door.
She walked over and heard Lu Li's voice muffled through the door: "Let's hit the road tonight. Some people's condition won't last until tomorrow. At this point, Yuna hasn't given her any peace yet. There should be no more Tang Lai."
Liu Yuhan questioned: "The diary said that we can't leave until the third day."
Lu Li chuckled: "Count us in. Isn’t it the third day when we go to the island? ”
……
After receiving Lu Li's notice, Chang Xu and Bai Yanduan left the room one after the other.
The little man walked in front with Lu Li on his back, followed by the others, marching toward the repaired wooden boat.
Milk white mist shrouded the entire island, blurring the boundary between heaven and earth into a lump. The towering bell tower stood darkly, as desolate as the legendary slender ghost.
The wooden boat was parked among the coconut trees. It was long, narrow and old. The players consciously lifted up all its parts and dragged it to the seaside.
The soft sand did not create too many obstacles, and the wooden boat was as light as a piece of paper. Within a quarter of an hour, the players saw the blue coastline.
Under the dark yellow sky, the turquoise water hits the white beach, throwing up shallow waves.
The players felt light-hearted at the thought of leaving the island and clearing the dungeon immediately.
Several big men worked together to push the wooden boat into the shallow sea.
Lu Li stared at the hull of the ship silently, and suddenly said: "This ship can only seat four people."
Players have already noticed that there are three distinct thin lines drawn on the ship. The empty space is divided into four equal parts, and the meaning is obvious.
But there are five players present, including Chang Xu.
The little man chuckled: "There is not much difference between four people and five people, so we can sit in even if we squeeze in."
He said this, but he had already taken the lead and carried Lu on his back. Li got on the boat.
As a veteran player, Lu Li is destined to have a place on this ship even if he has difficulty moving. If you are lucky enough to be matched with a boss of this level and enter the same dungeon, if you can form a good relationship, why not do it?
And because the little man is close to Lu Li, he will naturally not be kicked off the ship. He took care of Lu Li all the way after Ye Linsheng, and he had no credit but hard work.
Lu Li smiled bitterly: "This is a dungeon with strange rules. Since the number of people to be carried is clearly stated, don't disobey it easily, otherwise no one knows what will happen."
At the same time, all the players are A line of newly refreshed rules was seen on the system interface:
[8. Four people must be seated on the boat, and only four people can be seated]
'The total number of living places is fixed, one One person's survival means another person's death. Everyone who survives is a murderer, but due to the diffusion of responsibility effect, the blame cannot be assigned to an individual. ’
Qisi’s words were still in his ears, and Chang Xu narrowed his eyes slightly.
Only four out of five people can survive. Should we bear a quarter of the responsibility for killing others for our own survival?
While he was wandering around, a strong wind suddenly hit behind his ears, and something flew past.
Chang Xu subconsciously turned sideways to avoid it, but the thing still scratched his face, leaving a trail of blood and burning pain.
In a blink of an eye, Bai Yanduan had already boarded the boat with another man, occupying the remaining two seats.
After four people were seated, the wooden boat automatically drifted away from the shore, and the choice of passengers was a foregone conclusion.
Bai Yanduan seemed a little unable to bear it. He took out the banknotes from his pocket and handed them to Chang Xu. He murmured: "Brother Chang, you are a capable person. I will give you all the money and you can live on the island for a while." , there is still a chance to leave the island in three days..."
The other three people also woke up from a dream, and one after another took out the remaining banknotes from their bodies and threw them at Chang Xu.
The ship was getting further and further away, and the banknotes that had been taken off were scattered on the sea like snowflakes, like fish carcasses that had been dead for a long time.
Chang Xu suddenly realized that this was a conspiracy. The choice of excluding one of the five people had already been completed silently, and the other four people made the same decision in unison.
Since entering the dungeon, he has been living in isolation, intentionally or unintentionally placing himself in an isolated position; after Qisi's accident, he became even more lonely; so now, he has become the abandoned one...
In the silence, a majestic bell rang out like a huge stone falling into the sea. The echoes rippled out and were blown by the sea breeze to every corner of the island.
Chang Xu bent down and picked up the things that just flew past and fell on the ground.
It was a piece of porcelain left behind after a broken plate, and it was aimed at his neck. If he hadn't reacted quickly, his aorta might have been punctured.
