Chapter 110 Double Happiness Town (Eleven) Breaking the Good Marriage
Qisi looked at Shang Qingbei's face and his face became stiff for a moment, with a smile on his lips, noncommittal.
He knew that this child must know something, but he had no intention of revealing it, and even deliberately delayed the time when he revealed the key clues so that he could pass the blame later.
Shang Qingbei was messy alone for a while. When he looked up, he saw Qisi standing casually on the side, looking like he was watching the fun.
He took a few steps closer and asked in a low voice: "What did you do?"
"What did I do?" Qisi scratched his head in confusion, with a look of doubt in his eyes, "You, Xiaoqing, suddenly had such a big reaction. Is there something you are hiding from us?"
Shang Qingbei Qijie.
Looking at the young man's innocent expression, he vaguely realized that as long as he dared to comply, the other party would be able to put him in the spotlight.
"It's okay." Shang Qingbei said two words through gritted teeth.
Looking at the "cowardly" look in the young man's eyes, he suddenly came up with an outrageous guess. Did "Qi Wen" already know the world view? He also saw that he was hiding clues and was just pretending not to. Know?
This idea was too unrealistic, and was dismissed by Shang Qingbei himself within a few seconds of its emergence.
In team dungeons, survival is the first priority. It makes sense to hide clues yourself. What the hell is it to allow others to hide clues?
The two men who looked like farmers said a few polite words such as "eat freely" and "have fun", and then disappeared into the crowd.
They showed the shyness typical of people living in a small place. Their hands were shaking up and down in confusion. Leaving first was not like perfunctory, but more like dodge, as if they were afraid of being pulled by the players for questioning.
"We spread out, each person is responsible for exploring a part of the area, and we will collect clues after the banquet is over." Qisi made a hasty arrangement, spotted a place with few people, and walked over.
He hid himself in the shadows while taking in the entire layout of the field.
The wedding banquet is generally divided into three parts.
At the edge is the open-air kitchen. A dozen middle-aged women in floral dresses and wigs stand in a row beside the stove, holding spatulas in their thick arms, constantly stir-frying various meats. vegetable.
The smoke was soaring into the sky, and red and yellow firelight splashed into the oil pan, burning high and full of fireworks.
Further inside is a wooden table filled with meat and vegetables. The men are holding wine bowls. Some are sitting around the table, some are standing, and the loud talks are mixed together, making it difficult to hear clearly. But it was very lively.
The core group is probably where the relatives and friends who are close to the couple sit. There are men and women. Everyone is wearing festive red clothes, and they are surrounded by an airtight circle. From a distance, there is a red cloud. Can't see clearly what's inside.
Considering that Xi'er is an orphan, these are probably the relatives of the "groom". Qisi couldn't help but wonder about the question Shang Qingbei asked before - "Where is the groom?"
The townspeople had been eating for a while, and the tables were littered with chewed bones. Some of the vegetarian dishes only had some soup left, and Qisi had no intention of leaning over to eat the saliva of strangers.
He turned around and saw a row of newly prepared dishes on the stove. He walked over and politely brought a plate of braised beef with bamboo shoots. He took the chopsticks and bowl and squatted in the corner. , eat quietly.
Maybe it’s because it’s still early in the month, but the bamboo shoots on the plate are so tender that you can bite the water out of them, and the beef is cooked very crispy and doesn’t fill your teeth.
Qisi was quite satisfied with his meal. After filling his stomach, he walked a little further with the plate and used chopsticks to pull away the leftovers.
There was no trace of blood, and there was nothing unusual about the whole dish. It was completely different from last night.
"It seems that Shuangxi Town can also make food for people to eat." Qisi said with a slight humor, tapping his chin with his fingers.
Why were the meals delivered by Mrs. Xu stained with blood after she left? If she did it on purpose, what good would it do her?
Although she was aware of the anomaly in the meal, knowledge does not mean direct participation. Is there a possibility that the anomaly in the meal last night had nothing to do with her?
Thinking of this, Qisi raised the corners of his lips with interest: "There should not be as many ghosts in Shuangxi Town as imagined, and ghosts may not be afraid of ghosts."
...
< br>On the other side, Liu Bingding also carried the bowl and chopsticks, but he didn't paddle like Qisi. He didn't take a bite of food, he just set up a table and walked among the crowd.
On the first day, a clue of a smartphone appeared out of thin air in his trouser pocket, and he couldn't tell the story.
He did not disclose the clues in time, and he really did not notice that there was something extra on him. Just because this matter was doubtful, he felt that he was more unjust than Dou E.
Players are all smart people, so naturally it is impossible to identify him as a massacre player just based on a small explainable detail; but if something goes wrong and someone needs to take the blame or step in, he is likely to be pushed away on this basis. go out.
Liu Bingding said that he had been working hard on the set for many years and became a human spirit. At the moment, he could not think of a way to eliminate the doubts. All he could do was admit that he was unlucky and try his best to actively collect more clues.
He searched the crowd with his eyes and quickly locked onto a man who was wandering around and didn’t look like he was in a social group: “Hey, big brother, you look good in this outfit. You should be one of the better ones in the town. "Really?"
The man was startled by his approach. He was stunned for a while and then said calmly: "No, I didn't even find a job, so I went back to the town and worked for Granny Xu." "
"I think everyone in your town respects Mrs. Xu. It's not easy to help her, right?" Liu Bingding smiled and praised, "Brother, what do you do in your daily life? She looks amazing, and she should be able to do anything.”
The man sneered sheepishly: "I follow Mrs. Xu and work as a matchmaker for others. People from far and near come to us looking for wives. Many girls are married from us."
Matchmaking Do you want a man to do it? Liu Bingding's intuition was a little strange, and he was about to ask again, but a tall and thick old man came over from behind and slapped the man on the head: "Dog, what are you talking about with this distinguished guest?"
Again After scolding the man called "Gou'er", the old man looked at Liu Bingding and showed the same smile as Mrs. Xu: "Don't listen to his nonsense. We are not as exaggerated as he said in our town. Mrs. Xu has a good reputation and a good reputation." Xiang, everyone believes in her and is willing to introduce her to her.”
It turns out that Sister-in-law Xu is a matchmaker. No wonder she dresses up in a fancy way and speaks with a certain accent.
Liu Bingding raised his eyebrows and asked: "Old man, where are the groom's officials? We have accepted your hospitality and do as the Romans do. Do we have to say a few words of congratulations?"
The old man did not doubt that he was there, and turned around and pointed at the bright red sea of people: "He is sitting there with a red flower on his chest. But there is not much emphasis on saying congratulations. Many people in our town have not told him. Just a word."
"You are in this town, and we are all acquaintances. We outsiders have just arrived, so we must not lose our etiquette." Liu Bingding sent the old man away with a smile. He put away the hypocritical expression on his face and walked straight in the direction indicated by the old man.
Looking from a distance, you can see a touch of white mixed with the bright red background, which is particularly conspicuous. Qisi was already standing outside, with his hands in his trouser pockets, looking at the crowd with a bleak expression, not knowing what he was thinking.
Liu Bingding approached him unexpectedly.
Before he could speak, Qisi looked sideways at him and put on an apologetic smile on his lips: "Liu Bingding, I was too anxious to find clues last night, so after seeing the smartphone in your trouser pocket, I just suspected you and embarrassed you in public."
"When I calm down and think about it, if it were me, if something suddenly appeared on my body, I would probably not be able to notice it at the first time. , I didn’t think it through properly.”
The apology was sincere, not a perfunctory “I was wrong”.
Most senior players are arrogant and stubborn, and there are only a few who can put down their posture and apologize like this. Liu Bingding was flattered: "It doesn't matter. In the final analysis, it's my own carelessness. If I were you, you would be suspicious if you saw me acting like this."
"But this is a team copy after all, and there is no real one among us. Massacre players..." Qisi sighed and changed the subject, "I can't find any more clues from Xi'er. I guess there are still some clues at the groom's place. Let's go take a look together."
Liu Bingding felt dizzy after hearing this, but Qisi's suggestion was exactly what he had expected.
Xi'er was behaving strangely, and Mrs. Xu's request to "don't collide" was placed there, so he didn't dare to come forward to test him. The groom's side obviously didn't have so many twists and turns, and he always came up to take a look. Nothing will happen.
What's more, the banquet was just like the wedding banquet he knew in the countryside. If it weren't for the light gray system interface in the upper left corner of his vision, he probably wouldn't have realized that it was in a weird game.
Seeing Qisi leisurely walking towards the crowd in festive red clothes, Liu Bingding followed him without doubting his presence.
Chisi unknowingly fell half a step behind him, and a few seconds later he walked in front, taking the lead.
Liu Bingding pushed his way through the crowd with his broad shoulders and squeezed in. Qisi followed silently.
A small bench was set up among the crowd, and a young man wearing red clothes and red flowers sat on it. Judging from his appearance, he must be the groom.
The groom looks ordinary, with a pair of small, empty eyes on his crooked potato-shaped face. His half-open mouth is drooling, and he does not seem to be in a normal state of mind.
He held half a mirror and dangled it in front of his eyes, as if he found it very amusing.
Chisi noticed that it was a fragment of a makeup mirror, with exquisite decoration. It should be used by women. The style was quite modern, and it was obviously not a local product of this town.
"A fool meets a madman, a good match from God!"
A high-pitched voice sounded with a smile, not like happiness, but more like sarcasm.
Qisi turned his head and looked in the direction of the sound, but did not see the speaker.
He looked at the groom again.
This fool is bringing the mirror to his mouth and blowing air. From the player's perspective, one can clearly see that the mirror is covered with a layer of white mist in a few seconds.
Qisi walked over and knelt down in front of the groom.
From a very close distance, you can see the white powder on the latter's face, covering the entire face like a mask, making the person look like a ghost.
"Congratulations." Qisi said his congratulations without much sincerity, and reached out to shake the groom's right hand.
——The palm of his hand was warm and moist, and the groom turned out to be a living person.
The sense of dissonance spread, and Qisi's eyes narrowed into a narrow line.
The fact that Xi'er is a living person can be explained by coincidence. The clue that the groom is a living person directly falsifies the conclusion that the player came to on the first day. It's possible that Double Happiness Town isn't a ghost town at all, but a haunted town at best.
Most of the information provided by Xu Wen is wrong. Is it intentional to mislead players, or does she really know nothing?
Where is she? Why are clues given that are completely different from the truth?
As early as when Qisi squatted in front of the groom, the eyes of the surrounding townspeople were following him directly, with him as the focus, and they were connected into a web as if they were substantial.
Chisi knows very well the truth that "human beings are more terrifying than ghosts".
A nice town is pretending to be a ghost, so the townspeople must not be kind. The clues to "The Man in the Well" are written in black and white. It is very reasonable for the townspeople who could do such a thing to kill and silence them.
Bathing in the public gaze, Qisi calmly withdrew his right hand and smiled brightly: "Congratulations, God-given marriage."
Evidently he repeated the congratulatory message he had heard previously.
The eyes of the townspeople were still glued to him, as if they wanted to see through him from the inside out.
The mist that shrouded the whole town dissipated a little, and everyone, things and things were submerged in the cold sunshine without any obstruction, and they were covered with a layer of paleness like a photo exposure.
Qi Siruo stood up unconsciously and slowly leaned towards Liu Bingding.
Suddenly there was a commotion in the distance. It seemed that someone shouted something. A group of people were shocked by the new news and fell silent for a second. Then there was an even louder commotion. According to legend.
Everyone looked away briefly and looked in the direction of the commotion. In just a few seconds, the news spread through a series of discussions.
"Xi'er is dead!" they said.
In a tone that is not too serious to watch the excitement: "Xi'er committed suicide!"
Wow, wow, wow, wow, I want the whole life of this dungeon - everyone, guess the world view of the dungeon (although I seemed to have let it slip in the group, but it’s not a big problem XD)
