Zhou Wan knew Yan Xingchen's purpose of letting him follow him all the way, but he really couldn't say anything.

Although she had other motives, she did take the initiative to follow them, and neither of them took the initiative to invite her from the beginning to the end.

In the current situation, it was the best and least labor-intensive choice for her to coax A Duo. As a player who wanted to survive in the dungeon and obtain clues, Zhou Wan had no reason to refuse.

She turned around and glanced at Yan Xingchen with a smile on her face: "I really appreciate your trust."

Yan Xingchen smiled and returned to the innocent and well-behaved look that everyone had seen in every dungeon live broadcast.

He blinked, his dark pupils were as bright as hidden stars, incompatible with the dim rainy day.

He nodded: "You're welcome."

Zhou Wan: "..." She wasn't really saying thank you.

This little white rabbit - no, this black-hearted man has been with the deceased for a long time. How can he choke the person to death when he talks like the deceased?

She kept smiling, turned around, grabbed her ordinary-looking dice with one hand, raised the other hand, and coaxed A'duo in a gentle tone: "Come on, one... one... three -

—Rock, Paper, Scissors!”

A Duo said nothing, but listened attentively. As soon as Zhou Wan finished speaking, he punched his fist.

There are scissors over there at Zhou Wan.

——As Yan Xingchen said, since you have to use this method to coax A'duo into giving clues, you can't really win all the time. Only by giving her a sense of accomplishment from the beginning can you catch the big fish in the long run.

Sure enough, A'duo's vigilant expression gradually disappeared. She grinned and looked up at Zhou Wan's face.

Qi Wushe seemed to have prepared it a long time ago, and thoughtfully handed over a colored pen and a toy. This kind of thing without numerical value can be exchanged with a key on the information panel, and it can be exchanged at any time even in the dungeon.

.

Zhou Wan: "..."

She put her face in front of A'duo.

"Boom——"

There was lightning and thunder outside.

After several back and forths, Zhou Wan had accumulated a share of several questions. They did not ask them separately, but calculated the number and asked them together later.

Yan Xingchen stood aside and observed the situation at Aduo's house.

The home is very simple, with only some necessary daily necessities, and it is even a little dirty. It is obvious that the current owner does not take care of it very often.

A'duo's father doesn't come home often.

...Then where does he usually stay?

When he brought them here, the people of the Qingshan tribe were very friendly and respectful along the way. A'duo's father's status in the tribe seemed not to be low.

There is also a priestess.

The priestess is the same as the clan leader. On what basis is the clan leader selected?

At that time, at the altar, the priestess came up from the steps behind the altar...

Behind the altar!

Does the priestess and A'duo's father, who are relatively high-status people, usually have another place to handle the affairs of the Qingshan tribe, and this place is not exposed to outsiders like them?

It seems that they have to find time to sneak back to the altar and take a look behind it.

And there is another biggest problem.

Yan Xingchen was still thinking, wondering if Qi Wushe's telepathy was too high and could feel his emotional changes every minute. As soon as Yan Xingchen frowned, a man's voice sounded beside him:

"If tomorrow's sacrifice is not enough, I can destroy the stone statue of the witch."

The stone witch statue is the foundation of sacrifice. Without the stone witch statue, the Qingshan tribe’s faith would have problems, let alone gouging out Yan Xingchen’s eyes.

This method of handling can be said to be that if the problem cannot be solved, the person who caused the problem will be solved.

When Yan Xingchen heard this, he was stunned for a while.

It wasn't until there were a few more muffled thunders that he said uncomfortably: "It doesn't have to be like this..."

They all know everything about the witch statue. What's the difference between provoking this thing and dying for him?

He knew that Qi Wushe's last dungeon must have accumulated a lot of negative energy in the dungeon structure. If he tried his best and used all the data and the ability to stop space, he might really be able to accomplish this impossible thing.

But the consequences will be serious, the Qingshan tribe will be furious, and many innocent players may be implicated.

Qi Wushe himself will definitely be very weak. This person is a random player. Once he relaxes in the dungeon, he will be doomed.

Why bother?

And there is still time.

He pulled Qi Wushe to a corner where Zhou Wan's view couldn't be seen, turned off his own live broadcast view, and asked Qi Wushe to turn it off, and then said: "Don't fight so hard. In fact, I'm not nervous or under pressure.

I think it’s a good thing that she’s targeting me. As you know, I’m not a good person. Before entering the cage, most people who knew about my problems said I was a lunatic.”

As he spoke, the usual friendly disguise on his face was removed, revealing a cold look.

He smiled and said: "I was even looking forward to it - she wanted to kill me so much, but I was not afraid, because it meant that I was a threat to her. The threat was so great that among so many players who seemed much better than me on the surface, she

She would rather expose her hostility towards me than kill me as quickly as possible."

What happened to Danger?

Danger represents opportunity.

Danger represents plot points.

He figured it out on the way to find A'duo that he couldn't hide from this crisis.

His opponent is the priestess, also Li Jiuze. One has the support of the entire Qingshan clan, the other has players who have entered the underworld, and tens of thousands of fans staring at the live broadcast room. If he can deal with one head-on, he may let the other take advantage of the situation.

.

You can't do it forcefully, it's best to be smart.

The best way to make your opponent relax their vigilance is to make them feel that they have a chance to win.

Yan Xingchen wanted to discuss tomorrow's sacrifice, but after listening to his words, Qi Wushe actually missed all the key points and said: "Good man, a real madman will not call himself crazy. Like me, I

I just feel like I’m a normal person.”

Yan Xingchen: "..."

It sounds weird. I want to refute everything, but I don't know where to refute it.

He waved his hand: "Let's not talk about anything else. What I want to say is that we cannot destroy tomorrow's sacrifice. We have to find another way."

After he finished speaking, Qi Wushe did not speak immediately.

After a while, Zhou Wan had three turtles on his face, and Qi Wushe said: "I understand what you are going to do. It turns out that this is your intention. It is too dangerous."

"Is there a time when Fanlong is safe?" Yan Xingchen didn't care, "Besides, no matter how dangerous it is, it's not as dangerous as you who are going to die, right?"

Qi Wushe seemed to frown.

Yan Xingchen rarely saw Qi Wushe's expression like this.

This person seems to be doing nothing most of the time. Even if he is a fierce ghost, he can't see any sorrow.

Frowning expressions are even rarer.

As he watched, he subconsciously wanted to raise his hand to pull off the black cloth that covered half of Qi Wushe's eyebrows.

The rainstorm was heavy, the thunder came intermittently, and everything around was dark, making people feel very gloomy.

Yan Xingchen was already thinking a lot, but now he was thinking about what happened to the gods and evil spirits, and he was also thinking about tomorrow's sacrifice. His mind was in a mess, and he was lost in thought for a moment.

Only when his fingertips reached Qi Wushe's eyes did he realize what he was doing.

He moved suddenly.

Qi Wushe had been blindfolded since he entered the cage. Although this man never concealed that he was pretending to be blind, Qi Wushe never took off the cloth when they got along in private.

There must be some secret involved.

He does this without anyone's consent...

"Sorry, I was distracted just now."

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt something was wrong again.

Qi Wushe's telekinesis level was so high, there were only four people in the room, and they were still so close.

As early as the moment he raised his hand, he didn't notice it himself, Qi Wushe should have noticed it.

He actually reached out to the cloth like this. If he hadn't stopped on his own, he would have pulled off Qi Wushe's blindfold at this moment.

Yan Xingchen looked at Qi Wushe who had been silent.

Could it be that if he hadn't stopped just now, Qi Wushe wouldn't have stopped him...?

This idea always felt a bit strange. He shook his head violently and said, "How do you know what I am going to do?"

He hasn't told Qi Wushe about his new usage of Jincai yet.

"What are you two talking about!!!" Zhou Wan shouted, her voice a little depressed, "I'm done here."

Qi Wushe seemed a little dissatisfied: "So fast?"

Zhou Wan was stunned: "Are you still too quick? Isn't it right to end things quickly in the dungeon!?? And!!"

She stood up and turned to look at Qi Wushe and Yan Xingchen.

Qi Wushe couldn't see it, and Yan Xingchen laughed out loud at the first glance.

Zhou Wan said numbly: "I have no idea what to do with my face. It has to end if I don't want it to end."

Yan Xingchen's eyebrows were slightly curved, and he walked forward with a smile.

He was about to squat down and ask A'duo a question, but Qi Wushe suddenly said: "Wait a minute, there is something going on outside."

Outside A'duo's house, A'duo's father stood guard outside, standing in the rain, and saw a few people walking in the distance.

Those people, each holding an umbrella, were both men and women. Judging from their clothes, they were all obviously foreigners.

The most conspicuous person is a young man walking at the front. He has white hair and looks to be only a few years older than A'duo. However, his expression is cold and his temperament is not at all cruel to someone of this age. He

His sleeves were wet from the rain that drifted in, and upon closer inspection, there seemed to be some blood stains.

A'duo's father, Shen Wei, was the one who handled the "sacrifice" and could recognize it at a glance. The blood was new and was probably splashed on dozens of minutes ago.

He said warily: "outsiders, what's the matter with you?"

Li Jiuze didn't say anything. A short-haired female player wearing a black sweater next to him said: "Didn't you ask a carpenter to customize a small wooden horse for Adu a few days ago? We happened to pass by the carpenter's house, and he scratched his arm while making the wooden horse, causing bleeding.

He suffered a lot of blood and could not come. So my brother and I helped the carpenter treat his wounds and helped him bring the wooden horse to you."

She said, and the white-haired boy nodded and took out a wooden horse toy from his pocket that seemed to have many small mechanisms.

A'duo's father breathed a sigh of relief - it turned out that the blood on the white-haired boy's sleeve was from helping the carpenter treat the wound.

No wonder the carpenter didn't come in person.

The white-haired boy spoke: "There are many ways to use the wooden horse. The carpenter taught me. I need to go in and teach Aduo myself."

inside the house.

Qi Wushe softly recounted what happened at the door to Yan Xingchen and Zhou Wan, saying: "They are now gaining the trust of A'duo's father and want to come in to find A'duo."

"The carpenter was injured...?" Yan Xingchen immediately recognized the clue, "They must have secretly killed the person."

Qi Wushe also looked slightly gloomy: "I found him pretty quickly."

Zhou Wan said: "It's no surprise that Li Jiuze ranks first in the newcomer rankings. The number of fans in the first place is 20,000 behind him. We can be here so quickly thanks to you using the priestess to let us obtain Qingshan."

Clan’s help.”

If Yan Xingchen didn't have the help of Aduo's father, Li Jiuze's speed could be described as terrifying.

"How many games did you win just now?"

Zhou Wan: "You can ask fourteen questions."

There is no time to delay.

Yan Xingchen immediately walked up to Zhou Wan and A Duo.

The girl held many toys she had won from Zhou Wan in her hands. She looked at Yan Xingchen, wondering what Yan Xingchen was going to ask, and was still a little confused and defensive.

Yan Xingchen said: "Aduo, first question, did you have fun just now?"

The guard in the girl's eyes immediately dissipated, and she nodded: "Happy. The turtle is very cute, but my sister is very stupid."

Zhou Wan: "..."

Yan Xingchen then asked: "I came to Qingshan today with my friends. We went up the mountain together and came here. Aduo, do you think you are also happy to be with your close friends and family?"

"Um……"

"The third question is, if a close friend or family member has an accident, will you be sad?"

The girl's eyes suddenly became a little wet. She nodded imperceptibly.

"The fourth question is, my friend just participated in the sacrifice and was selected by them, tied to the rack and killed. Aduo, do you have any friends or relatives who have experienced the same thing?"

A'duo was stunned. It seemed like it was the first time she heard someone describe the bloody sacrifice in negative terms. She was confused for a moment, and then she said excitedly: "Yes, yes. Mom, mom..."

Her entire eyes turned red.

"The fifth question, when did your mother die?"

"Four or five years ago, my mother held me under the altar, and the priest poured the blood of the last person who offered sacrifices to the gods on the hands of the witch. The blood finally flowed in front of us. They all said that it was the witch who pointed at us.

, even my father said the same thing. My mother hugged me, she kissed me, and said that the miko was not referring to me, but to her."

Yan Xingchen subconsciously raised his hand and rubbed her head.

"That time, how long did the sacrifices last?"

"Three days, mom is the last one."

"This time it was a heavy rain that killed many people. So what happened at that time that the clan had to hold a sacrifice?"

"Nothing happened. It was the priest. The priest said that she had a premonition that something bad was going to happen. If she had worshiped the gods earlier, nothing would happen to everyone. After her mother died, she said that the witch told her that the gods heard our pleas.

The disaster will never happen again. But

Obviously there was no disaster, it was all the priest who had the final say. What she said was what she said. She was the one who said disaster was coming, and she was the one who said disaster would never happen again. After her mother died, she did not verify whether her mother's death was of any use. She just

Said the miko heard our request."

This seemed to be just one of the countless sacrifices of the Qingshan tribe, and the number of people who died was much smaller than in other consecutive sacrifices. But Yan Xingchen suddenly pulled a thread among the thousands of threads.

He asked: "Is your mother friends with the priest?"

"I don't know, I'm too young. But my father said that my mother was once a candidate for a priest, and later she became the current priest."

"Do you remember who the other two people are?"

"There are too many people in the clan. I don't recognize the first one. The first one..." She tilted her head and thought hard, "It seems to be an uncle. He occasionally comes to our house to play. I remember him.

Because my father was very unhappy about his visit, he would always tell me secretly that that uncle was once my mother’s suitor, and my mother’s childhood sweetheart, and I knew her before he did.

Mom, maybe she knows a lot about her past, but dad said he didn’t know any of this, so he was very unhappy. But dad also said that in the end, he pursued mom. He is the executor of the clan’s sacrifices, and everyone respects him.

, He is much better than that uncle. But..." A'duo cried, "He took my mother away, and I will never forgive him."

Among the three people who died, one was A'duo's mother, who was also a candidate for the priesthood, and the other was A'duo's mother's former pursuer, a childhood sweetheart who knew a lot about A'duo's mother's past...

[Player No. 13 Yan Xingchen, because you obtained clues about the priest’s past, you get 10 plot points. 】

Yan Xingchen wanted to comfort the little girl in front of him, but he knew that time was running out, so he could only ask again: "Do you know the priest's original name and which family in the Qingshan tribe he is from?"

This time, A'duo shook his head: "I don't know."

Qi Wushe suddenly said: "Aduo's father agreed to let them in."

Only ten questions were asked.

Yan Xingchen laid the groundwork all the way, stabilizing A'duo's mood bit by bit, and slowly extended the questions to possible restricted areas, just to ask the next few questions.

If Huang Quan comes in, he will definitely fight with them to snatch A'duo, and no matter what, he will find a way to prevent them from getting clues.

If he really took action, Aduo would just treat them all as foreigners with malicious intentions.

Don't let all your efforts go to waste.

He glanced at the closed door and said to Zhou Wan: "I still need a few minutes, go and stop them."

Zhou Wan, who had already been taken advantage of by Yan Xingchen once, said with a look on his face: "Why me? In fact, my force level is very low, I have very little fighting experience, and I am very incapable of fighting. Going out to the dead is much more intimidating than me.

Bar?"

"Because Qi openly provoked Li Jiuze in the newcomer forum. With Li Jiuze's temper, if they see each other now, things will get out of hand. They have many more cards than us, and it's not worth facing them on the first day."

"Hey, you said 'we', do you think of me as an accomplice?"

Before Zhou Wan finished speaking, Qi Wushe had already walked to the door, hid in the shadows and opened the door.

At the same moment, Yan Xingchen raised his hand and suddenly pushed Zhou Wan towards the door just like he did last time.

Zhou Wan hurriedly braked and cursed in a low voice: "Can you show mercy to me!!"

The young man's lowered voice barely drifted into Zhou Wan's ears with the wind: "Of course I will be gentler to girls."

At the same time, Qi Wushe, who was standing by the door, took advantage of Zhou Wan's unsteady stance and took Yan Xingchen's strength to push Zhou Wan out again.

Completely pushed Zhou Wan out.

In front of the door, a white-haired boy held an umbrella. The wooden horse in his pocket popped out and followed him to the door, trembling.

He had long sensed that there were three players in the room, standing in front of the door with cold expressions.

Since the people inside came earlier than him, they must not be good people, and they cannot give in directly.

There might be an ambush at the door.

The talisman hidden in his sleeve fell into Li Jiuze's hands, and he was about to break in.

The door opened by itself.

He raised his eyes and met Zhou Wan's gaze as he was pushed out of the door and Yan Xingchen took advantage of him for the first time.
Chapter completed!
