"I repent... The things I did before, yes, the heir to the Cheng family was killed by me!"
"Even now, my nephew Cheng Jia, I just want to use him, I don't care about his life and safety at all, I'm not a human at all!"
…
Cheng Jia stared dumbfounded at the legal news on TV, and at the uncle who looked much older, still in shock.
It’s been a few days since that day, and it was a sensation at first. After all, the Cheng family’s patriarch suddenly surrendered himself. come out.
Others couldn't believe it, and even wondered if he was crazy. But Patriarch Cheng actually put out all the evidence himself, which made people have to believe it.
It's not that the other stakeholders of the Cheng family did not persuade the owner of the Cheng family, but the other party seemed to have fallen in with evil. He insisted on repenting of his mistakes, which made others look scared.
What's more, the news of Cheng Jia's father's death was also reported not long after, and the family owner Cheng revealed the maddening things he had done. Everyone began to think that he was afraid and then turned himself in.
Cheng Jia and Gu Wuji, who were also at the scene, left without incident after being questioned. After all, the two of them were really innocent. Even when they were on TV, they were mosaicked and their names were pseudonyms.
After the police investigation, they suspected that the Cheng family head colluded with the cult members and wanted to harm their own nephew, thanks to their timely arrival to prevent all this. And they also found part of the body of the woman who had died tragically in the villa, and immediately believed that the previous murder was also committed by these cult members.
It's a pity that they can only catch some ordinary subordinates, and the person who may actually control everything is silent and does not know where to escape.
The news just shocked the whole country. Of course, the Cheng family's stock also plummeted, which almost caused the whole family to bleed. At this critical moment, it was Cheng Jia's cousin, Cheng Qing, the actual power holder of the Cheng family, who came out to stabilize the situation and do what his father did. Apologize for.
Cheng Qing is indeed an excellent person. He is not only good in management skills, but also has a strong personality, which can make others subconsciously believe in him.
Coupled with the fact that Patriarch Cheng has not managed the company's affairs too much, this matter was barely stabilized in the end.
But the tragic thing is that Cheng Jia didn't have any friends before his death. Even if it was revealed that he was killed, it would only cause many people to discuss the grievances and grievances of the giants on the Internet and compete fiercely.
In the end, Gu Wuji went to his grave and sent a bunch of flowers.
…
"I really didn't expect it." Cheng Jia couldn't help wiping the cold sweat from his forehead. He just felt that what happened these days was like a dream. He looked at Gu Wuji who was sitting on the sofa and playing games seriously.
But to say that the most dreamy one was the Shura field of Master Gu and the two Specters that day, which really surprised Cheng Jia.
But after that day, Cheng Jia and Master Ning couldn't get in touch after entering the mirror world. Originally, they were not very familiar with each other, and they didn't understand what the other party was going to do...
"Come and eat some fruit." Mrs. Tang actually brought the fruit in person, looking at Cheng Jia with pity, "My son, you have suffered. It was your mother's fault before, but you actually believed that. Guy's bullshit!"
Although Cheng Jia was treated by Gu Wuji's ability, the trauma was basically healed, and it seemed that she had not suffered any torture, but it did not prevent Mrs. Tang from thinking about how her precious son was mutilated.
"There's nothing I can do about it." Cheng Jia said quickly, "If I don't go that day, I don't know if the uncle will use force. Wouldn't it be even worse?"
"This slut who kills thousands of knives, why doesn't his son go to harm!" Mrs. Tang gritted her teeth with hatred, and looked at Gu Wuji gratefully, and said, "Thanks to Master Gu for helping in time, otherwise I didn't know the situation would turn into What. I don't even know how to repay you, I still have a part of the shares of the Cheng family's subsidiary... "
Gu Wuji hurriedly declined, and finally accepted the gift under the excessive enthusiasm of the other party. After all, considering the life of Cheng Jia, this gift was insignificant.
"Speaking of my father's side..." Cheng Jia's heart was still a little complicated when he thought that his scumbag had died so silently.
"What did that guy do?" Mrs. Tang was obviously very dissatisfied with the husband, "Now that everyone is dead, and the funeral has not yet been held, it has caused us trouble again... His illegitimate child outside doesn't know what to do with it now. I Anyway, she didn't want to bring him over to the Cheng family, but that woman was shameless..."
Gu Wuji immediately stood up when he heard this, made an excuse and ran away. This is obviously someone else's housework, and it also involves the illegitimate children of the rich and powerful. It's not good for him to listen too much.
When he came to the outer garden, Gu Wuji sat down and couldn't help frowning. It stands to reason that Master Ning has now been solved. It seems that these things have come to an end, but he can't always feel at ease.
Biquge
After all, too much amazing news was revealed from Master Ning's mouth at that time. What's more, it wasn't just Master Ning who did those things before... The entire Ning family behind this was also very problematic.
It's just that the black shadow ghost has been in a deep sleep since he came back, and I don't know if it was too much stimulation before.
The sound of the system suddenly sounded.
[Now is the time when players should enter the copy, please prepare as soon as possible. ]
Compared to the frequency of going every few days before, the reason for this recent time is because of the movie's release, I stayed at Cheng's house and didn't go to the copy.
… Accidentally overstayed the time limit
Gu Wuji didn't even hesitate, and immediately made a decision.
"I've opted for early access to the dungeon, but I'll have to buy a tip before that."
[The hint this time is: ghost marriage. ]
--------
After opening his eyes again, Gu Wuji found that he was in the foggy mountains and forests. He was wearing clothes that were convenient for moving in the mountains and forests. He was carrying a heavy bag on his back, which must be some props for survival in the wild... Of course, this weight was nothing to Gu Wuji at all.
There are seven or eight people around, and there are obviously a lot of players this time.
[You are tourists who are lost in the mountains and forests. Seeing that the sky is about to darken, if you rest in the mountains, you might encounter something dangerous. ]
This simply means that if you stay outside, you will definitely die at night.
[You have heard of a backward village in this mountain before. The people in it are very resistant to communicating with the outside world, and they will not leave except to buy the necessary food. Although you did not plan to have this destination, now your only option is this village. ]
[Trigger the main quest: Find the location of the village as soon as possible and survive in it for seven days. ]
After the system's words fell, another voice sounded alone in Gu Wuji's mind.
[This time all players have an identity and mission that only they can know, and all of you must act in accordance with this identity. And can't tell anyone else about it. Of course, if someone else guesses that's fine. ]
I didn't expect that this dungeon actually has such a role-playing-like setting. For a time, Gu Wuji's heart throbbed.
[The player has no idea, your identity is: killer. ]
Gu Wuji: "..." Huh? Don't you think this setting is very inconsistent with the ghost marriage in this village? !
[As a killer, your strength is astonishing, and there is no blood to kill. Even this operation, in which you participated in order to kill a target, only to encounter such trouble. ]
[Task: Monitor your [target]. Players can recognize each other when they see each other. They don't have to kill each other, but they must maintain a distance of no more than 50 meters from each other and pay attention to each other at all times. ]
[But in fact, as a killer, you have a kind heart, respect the old and love the young, and when you see someone in trouble, you can't help but step forward to help. ]
[Therefore, the player must lend a helping hand when they see someone in trouble. ]
[If the above tasks are not completed, when the player leaves the copy, a ghost from any previous copy will be randomly summoned to be in close contact with the player for one minute. ]
These two tasks add up to countless troubles. It can be seen to the naked eye that the system arranges tasks to restrain the players. If someone else is here, they will probably start to scold.
However, Gu Wuji was a little eager to try it after listening to it, and felt that he really wanted to try it.
The other people are quite indifferent. Gu Wuji doesn't know what their identities are. I think that these people have strong psychological qualities. This time I met such a reliable teammate, and I want to spend seven days in this dungeon. Not difficult.
With Gu Wuji's gaze, he quickly noticed who he was looking for.
It was a young man who seemed to be very difficult to get along with. The most conspicuous thing about the other party was that there was still gauze wrapped around one eye. When he looked at other people, his expression was casual, but his eyes were shocking.
Even those who don't know him dare not approach him rashly at this time, not to mention those who recognize him, have already subconsciously took a few steps back.
"This is that person, Qi Yunxiu, I heard that he killed many teams..."
"After all, this is the only way to get the best benefit for such a mad person."
"I heard that his gauze-covered eye was obtained in a certain dungeon and grew by absorbing grievances... He is no longer human!"
In the whispered discussion of the crowd, Gu Wuji walked over with a frankness, "Hello, I'm Sun Shi. It's a coincidence that we met here. Can we go together next?"
Everyone else was stunned. What happened to this man named Sun Shi? No matter how powerful Qi Yunxiu was, he wouldn't die if he hugged such a dangerous person! Could it be that there is something wrong with his brain, or is this his set requirement
But looking at Gu Wuji's magnanimous appearance, he can't see any coercion at all, but even if he just wanted to find a teammate, that speech was too much like a conversation on the street!
Everyone couldn't help shaking their heads, this Sun Shiming had such a good-looking face, but he was about to die as soon as he came up. No one really could help him.
Gu Wuji did hear other people's comments, but is this something very embarrassing? He felt normal, and there was no problem at all. Isn't it just that one eye may be a ghost pupil? Everyone usually deals with real ghosts anyway, so what's so strange about this eye.
As for the question of personality, Gu Wuji intuitively didn't feel that there was anything bad about it, so he naturally felt that the other party must be a good person.
Qi Yunxiu also glanced at Gu Wuji in surprise, and then said indifferently, "If you want to follow along, if anything happens, you will be fully responsible."
He has seen a lot of this kind of person, but he just wanted to live on his strength, so he followed up with shame... In fact, he didn't understand anything at all. In the end, if they were really in danger, they would definitely run away. fast.
Occasionally, a few lucky enough to survive went outside to spread rumors about him. But this was nothing to Qi Yunxiu, after all, he was the kind of loner.
Others did not dare to approach this place when they saw it, and they formed a team in twos and threes, and moved forward with difficulty in the mountains and forests. The road here is really difficult to walk.
It is also at this time that the players have basically gone through various experiences, and their quality has improved a lot, and it is impossible for them to be exhausted.
Finally, before the sun was about to go down, everyone rushed to the destination village.
Appearing in front of them is a large field and sparse thatched cottages, and farther away is a village with lights on, but it does not give people a sense of peace of mind when they come to a populated place. Instead, it has a somewhat strange feeling. … Because the lights in this village are actually red.
It was getting late at this time, and in the dim light, the players were even more worried, no matter what they saw, they felt that something was wrong. Even the scarecrow inserted in the field ridge can startle people's hearts, if it is not for the better psychological quality, someone may have already cried out.
The unfortunate thing is that as the sky gets darker, the fog behind it slowly spreads over. Presumably, when it is completely dark, the fog will spread into the village.
Everyone accelerated their pace. Whether it was their previous experience or the system's prompts, it was clear to them that staying in the fog would only encounter terrifying things. Have to find a house to rest before it gets completely dark.
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in front of them, making everyone tremble in their hearts.
It looked like a rickety old man with a hoe in his hand, and he was still working even at this time.
If it was on weekdays, they wouldn't find it strange at all, but in this wild village, there is such a supernatural background copy... This old man might be a ghost!
Even the old man didn't seem to be able to hold the hoe at all. The hoe kept slipping from his hand, making a noise, and then he picked it up with difficulty.
This picture made the players hold their breath. Even if they knew that they should go up and ask each other, no one dared to speak first.
After all, they were afraid that if they acted rashly, they would directly become the first sacrifice in this dungeon.
But at this moment, a figure suddenly rushed over.
In the stunned eyes of everyone, Gu Wuji picked up the hoe on the ground and asked, "Old man, why are you still working hard here at night? Is there no one else to help?"
The old man stiffened for a moment, looked up at him with great difficulty, and seemed to make a rattling sound of bones. His eyes had almost no whites, and he didn't look like a living person at all.
Being stared at by such a pair of eyes, Gu Wuji not only acted as if nothing had happened, but even looked at each other with enthusiasm and a very kind tone, "Just go to rest first, just let me be here."
With that said, Gu Wuji picked up the hoe and worked diligently on the ground.
"???" The other players have all been stunned behind, what is this operation? !
Even Qi Yunxiu, who had been taken as a teammate by Gu Wuji before, could not help but be silent.
The author has something to say: The new copy is a bit stuck, so the word count still can’t go up (… ) Can I really stand up
