The middle-aged man felt that no one was following him, so he turned around and took a look. He found that Mao Cheng's limbs were stiff and his body was pale, so he said, "Don't look, he has been selected as the best man."

"When?" Quan Quan looked shocked.

They had only been separated this morning, and were assigned to different places to eat at noon. The two of them stayed together the rest of the time.

So when was Mao Cheng selected? Could it be that someone who ate the villagers' food would be selected?

Mao Cheng suddenly remembered when they were talking before. At that time, he felt as if something was stuck on his back, but when he touched it, there was nothing there.

He thought it was his illusion at the time, but now...

"In the yard next to the well, something stuck to my back. That's when!" Mao Cheng was now panicking, "What should I do now?"

The middle-aged man seemed to be watching the excitement and said, "Actually, you can find a substitute."

"Now you are being replaced by the previous best man. When the groom is selected, you will completely become a paper best man. No one can save you by then."

Mao Cheng looked at Quan You and realized that the two of them had actually experienced one game. Because the two of them cooperated to clear the level in the last game, they could be considered to have established a revolutionary friendship.

Quan You is thinking of a solution that has both ends. He doesn't completely believe what this middle-aged man said, but if it is assumed that what this middle-aged man said is true, then Mao Cheng has a solution.

That is to let Mao Cheng be the groom, so that the groom will be fine.

But in this case, he who is not chosen as the groom will be in danger.

But if what this middle-aged man said is false, then Mao Cheng will die as the groom, but if he is not the groom, now Mao Cheng has a tendency to become a paper man, and he will not be able to dedicate himself.

And if two people join forces to harm Huang Ruoxuan, then their union will no longer be strong.

"Mao Cheng, do you believe me?" Quan You looked at Mao Cheng.

Mao Cheng nodded his head stiffly and mechanically.

In fact, Mao Cheng was very reluctant to find a substitute. He didn't want to hurt others, even though he was a big man and looked like he could fight eight people.

But in fact, he is very kind. He also has a dog and two cats at home. His nickname is the name of the family's border collie, which is Oreo.

Or perhaps it is this kind and helpful character that allowed him to survive such a weird game before and survive until now.

He is willing to help others and is willing to believe in Quan You. After all, they worked together to clear the level last time.

Quan You told Mao Cheng his thoughts, and Mao Cheng didn't disapprove of anything. Anyway, if you stretch your head out, it's the same as shrinking your head. Why not give it a try?

They followed the middle-aged man to the entrance of the village. A large number of people had gathered at the entrance of the village. The old couple from the Nan family were standing in the center of the village entrance.

There is a white cardboard box placed on a wooden stool, and there is a hole in the cardboard box for your hands to enter.

It looks really crude.

Huang Ruoxuan also came, standing not far away. He saw Quan You and Mao Cheng. Just as he was about to come over, he saw Mao Cheng's strange look, so he stopped where he was and pointed at Mao Cheng.

Quan You walked over and simply explained the reason. Huang Ruoxuan thought for a while and then said, "Then let's go together."

For Huang Ruoxuan, he couldn't tell whether what the man and woman in the family said was true or not. He didn't know whether the identity of the groom was a life-saving card. But they just said that it would be dangerous if he was not selected, but it was not a certain death situation.

.

Now that Mao Cheng needs this identity, I will help him along the way.

Mao Cheng looked at Huang Ruoxuan gratefully. He seemed to meet good people in every game.

——

Pei Shiqing and Bai Cha stayed in the small room, but the grandma in the big room seemed to have gone out, and now there were only two people left in the room.

"Can we really not go out?" Bai Cha asked.

Pei Shiqing held his chin and thought for a moment. Grandma didn't let them go out, but she went out. What does it mean?

And why is there a rule against letting people out?

The yard they were in was relatively close to the village entrance, and they could hear the lively sounds outside.

"Just wait and see what happens. Let's stay in the house first. If something goes wrong, run away." Pei Shiqing took out the flashlight from his backpack and held it in his hand.

Bai Cha looked at the flashlight in her hand in surprise, "Why did you bring so many things?"

Pei Shiqing patted his backpack and said, "Be prepared!"

After that, she took out the compressed biscuits from her backpack.

You have to eat first before you have the strength to run.

It sounded very lively outside, and some people were praying to choose themselves as the groom, and kept shouting their names.

Pei Shiqing lay by the window and put his ear against the glass, "They seem to really want to be the groom."

Bai Cha followed her example and put his ear to hers, "Do the other three male players also need to compete for this groom's spot?"

"Quan has said before that people who get the identity of the groom will be safer, but he can't be sure whether this is true or not, but looking at this, it seems to be true."

Pei Shiqing glanced at the walkie-talkie she placed on the wooden bed, and praised herself again. She was indeed foresight.

There was no signal on mobile phones in the village and they could not talk to each other, but the walkie-talkies could, so just before they came out of the yard next to the well and went back to their homes, Pei Shiqing took out the walkie-talkies. However, because she only bought a pair of walkie-talkies, she could only give one to one.

gang.

Ye Li didn't want it, so Pei Shiqing gave the walkie-talkie to them.

Pei Shiqing turned his head and leaned against the window to listen carefully, but he heard all the sounds.

"Your method of drawing lots is too unstable. If you have already decided on the candidate, it would be too unfair to us."

Doubts flashed in Pei Shiqing's eyes. Does Quan You want to get this groom's spot? In that case, Mao Cheng and Huang Ruoxuan also agree?

Outside the house, all the sounds attracted the attention of all the villagers.

For some unknown reason, some of these villagers move stiffly, their skin is pale, and traces of red appear on their cheekbones, while others move freely like ordinary people.

The Nan family couple standing at the entrance of the village had stiff smiles on their faces, "Then what do you want to do?"

The two people spoke at the same time, and their voices overlapped, making it impossible to argue between male and female.

Quan You stepped forward and said: "Then I will draw the groom for you. I came back from outside the village and have no contact with the people in the village. In order to ensure my fairness, I don't need to participate in the groom's draw."

Draw.”

The Nan family couple turned to look at each other, and then looked at Quan You together, "Okay, we promise you."

The stone that Quan You had been hanging on his heart finally fell. He was also afraid that he would not succeed this time, so he increased the stakes so that the villagers would believe that he would not draw him out of the secret operation.

The Nan family couple took out the note with all their names and tore it up in front of the villagers, then walked out and stood on both sides of the white box.

Quan Youze stood over and looked at the empty gap on the white box. The gap was like the throat of a beast, waiting for him to come closer and then tear him into pieces.

Mao Cheng's face began to appear red, his mouth became smaller and smaller uncontrollably, and the color of his mouth became brighter and brighter.

Quan You took a deep breath, then put his hand into the gap. There was a note with Mao Cheng's name hidden in his palm.

Cheating in front of everyone really challenges people's psychological quality, especially in such a weird scene.

The villagers who were lively just now all fell into silence for some reason, with pairs of eyes staring at Quanyou.

Quan You could see the faces of every villager across from him. Some villagers seemed to have begun to turn into paper-like figures, with red cheeks, bright red cherry mouths, and blank eye sockets without eyes.

Mao Cheng's black pupils also began to turn white.

Quan You pretended to stir the box, then took out his hand and announced the result: "Mao Cheng, the groom this time is Mao Cheng."

The Nan family couple came over and handed them the note. After the Nan family couple admitted it, Mao Cheng instantly returned to his original state, while the villagers all sighed after hearing that the groom had been chosen.

Huang Ruoxuan saw that Mao Cheng had recovered and knew that the identity of the groom was indeed a life-saving card, so the couple in his family were telling the truth.
