When a player triggers a death trap, the NPC will not intervene. It is as if the uncle cannot see them vomiting flesh.
When the player climbed to the entrance of the ancestral hall, everyone came back with pale faces and rosy faces, obviously out of danger.
"Everyone, sit down." The uncle asked the players to sit down.
He took off the cloth bag he was carrying, dug out a pile of candles and said, "Send someone to distribute them yourselves."
Jing Yuxing appointed Song Hexian and said, "Go and help distribute the candles."
Song Hexian stood up and took the candles. He gave one to each player in order, but one candle was missing after all the candles were given out.
"Uncle, don't you know how to count?" Cang Fei asked, spinning the candle.
The uncle ignored him and said, "One of you will be chosen to be the bride of the river god tonight. The bride does not need candles."
He stared at Cang Xi and said, "It's up to you to decide on the bride."
It was obvious that Cang Xiu was targeted by the NPC. Even if he was not selected as the bride tonight, he would probably not be in an easy situation.
"I think we should choose the most beautiful person to stay." Wave Girl stared at Cang Qiu and said.
The man then chimed in, "The river god may like beautiful people, so I think it would be appropriate to hide them."
The wave girl sneered, "We've all left the opportunity to you, Zang, so don't refuse."
A group of newlyweds were led astray and asked to choose a bride, but more than half of them chose Cang Xi.
"How about leaving such a good opportunity to you?" Fan Qi was disgusted by the faces of these people.
Brother Zang had just solved a death trap for them, and these people in turn wanted him to die. It was so abominable.
"You really want to choose me?" Cang Xiu said without fear.
Song Hexian glanced at Jing Yuxing and said, "Since it's my turn and there's no candle, I'll stay tonight."
Except for Jing Yuxing, there are all newcomers here, and it is impossible for the old players to stay and be brides for the newcomers.
Song Hexian has the demeanor of a team leader. Apart from Jing Yuxing and the dominating Cang Fu, he performed best today.
"You can't stay." Jing Yuxing refused his proposal.
This newcomer is of good quality. If he can pass the level and has a connection with their legend, we cannot let him die unjustly.
Jing Yuxing handed his candle to Song Hexian, "It's up to me tonight..."
"I choose me." Cang Fu suddenly pointed at himself and threw the candle into Song Hexian's arms.
Ji Yu hasn't shown up yet, and there aren't many NPCs in the dungeon. You can just guess that he is the River God.
Cang Fei will be fine if he stays, but that's not necessarily true for others. If Jing Yuxing becomes a bride, he will definitely be beaten.
He didn't say anything when others chose him because others couldn't make decisions for him. He chose himself because his nature was different.
"Brother Zang!" Fan Qi shouted.
Cang Rao stopped him and said, "You also vote for me."
Not only Fan Qi was shocked, but the other newcomers were also extremely surprised, and some even rushed to die.
The story of the River God was taught in primary school textbooks. The bride chosen was to die, and they did not dare to joke with their lives.
"Can I abstain?" Fan Qi looked at Jing Yuxing and asked.
Jing Yuxing nodded and said to everyone, "You can abstain, but you have to bear the price yourself."
The NPC said that the players choose their own bride, which means that they cannot abstain, and no one knows the consequences of not choosing.
When she heard that there would be consequences, Wavy Girl immediately pointed at Cang Xi and said, "I will vote for him!"
Then many new people followed to vote, and without exception, the people they voted for were all Cangqi.
Jing Yuxing has not taken action yet, Fan Qi does not want to vote, Song Hexian has not taken action yet, and he wants to abstain from voting.
"You three really don't want to vote?" Cang Xiu raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Anyway, I will be the bride tonight."
Fan Qi shook his head and said, "Brother Zang, without your reminder, I would have died a long time ago. I would rather bear the price."
Jing Yuxing chuckled, "I have the tools and can afford the price. I don't need to step on a newcomer."
Song Hexian glanced at Jing Yuxing and said, "I respect the choice of veteran players."
The uncle happily pointed at Cang Fei and said with a smile, "Very good, the bride will choose you."
Following the uncle's announcement, Cang Fei's robe turned into a bright red wedding gown, except that a veil was missing.
"Interesting." Cang Xi smiled coldly.
The river god behind him had better be as he expected, otherwise, there would be no need for this copy to exist.
"The bride needs to wait alone for the river god to pick her up. The others have to go back to the mountain. I will arrange a place to stay."
The uncle asked the others to leave quickly. They had to go back before dark, otherwise they would be in danger.
Cang Ji waved to the three people who did not vote, "Come here."
Fan Qi jumped over immediately, "Brother Zang, can I stay with you tonight?"
Cang Fu shook his head and raised his hand to draw a symbol on his forehead, which was the same as the one printed on the statue of the god enshrined in the ancestral hall.
Cang Xi finished the painting and said, "This is the bride's blessing. You will not be in trouble tonight."
"I want it too!" Jing Yuxing came over with some envy.
When Cang Xi was drawing symbols just now, he was actually a little jealous of Fan Qi, always feeling that he should be the first to be drawn.
The strong sense of déjà vu made Jing Yuxing anxious. He felt that someone had taken his position, so he moved quickly.
Song Hexian glanced at Jing Yuxing strangely, saw his actions, and walked over to let Cang Fei draw the symbols.
The newlyweds who came out of the ancestral hall were all laughing when they saw Cang Xi's behavior. They couldn't protect themselves, but they dared to send blessings.
"Let's go." Cang Xi waved to a group of people.
Fan Qi was picked up by Jing Yuxing and dragged away. He couldn't help shouting, "Brother Zang, if something happens, just shout and I will come to save you!"
"He is dead!" The uncle stared at the man in the ancestral hall and laughed sinisterly.
"Uncle, it's getting dark." Cang Xi waved to him, "It's dark and the road is slippery, be careful not to fall."
Jing Yuxing coughed to hold back his laughter and said hello, "Let's go first."
The uncle sighed and didn't take Cang Xi's words seriously. As a result, he fell down several times when going down the mountain.
A group of newlyweds began to panic. This must be the curse of the bride. He said that the uncle would fall, and he actually fell.
They caught a glimpse of three people who didn't vote, and a strange symbol appeared between their eyebrows.
Everyone suppressed the panic in their hearts and did not dare to speak out. Some of them drew random symbols between their eyebrows.
The uncle led a group of people into a courtyard and said, "You each have a room, so go in."
"Uncle, when will the candles be lit?" Jing Yuxing asked.
The uncle smiled sinisterly, "It's up to you."
Jing Yuxing waited for the uncle to leave the yard and said to everyone, "The candles can't be lit until midnight. Don't leave the house no matter what you hear."
"What if there's an emergency?" the wave girl asked.
Jing Yuxing warned again, "No matter how you solve it, you just can't leave the house."
"There are really ghosts in the supernatural dungeon. Ghosts always appear at midnight. They will confuse players. Please be careful."
After Jing Yuxing reminded him, he picked a room and went in. If the newlyweds were obedient, they would be alive. If they were disobedient, it would be none of his business.
Song Hexian and Fan Qi moved quickly. They chose the room next to Jing Yuxing and locked the door as soon as they entered.
Seeing this, other people could only choose a room to go in, and there were sounds of cursing in the courtyard.
There was nothing in the room except a bed, and there was not even a bedding on the bed, just a thin layer of old gray sheets.
The newcomers have not been severely beaten by the dungeon, thinking that the NPC is deliberately making things difficult, and some people are making troubles and want to go to the uncle for comment.
Jing Yuxing couldn't bear it and scolded, "If you want to die, go ahead. If anyone makes any more noise, I will remove the door!"
Do you really think that the veteran players have no temper? Jing Yuxing is too lazy to trick people. If he wanted to, these new players would be gone during the day.
Everyone was frightened, no one dared to continue making trouble, and the sky slowly became dark.
