Painful screams resounded through the sky, and the thick and thick darkness in front of them seemed to ripple.
Ge Xiu rubbed his aching ears, and withdrew his gaze gently, as if the other party's miserable roar and malicious gaze didn't exist.
He stretched his muscles and bones, turned his head casually to look around.
Ge Xiu looked around, then fell silent: "..."
Like a hurricane passing through the border, all the buildings in the visible range were completely destroyed. The walls outside the ancestral hall were crooked and crumbled, and the dusty bricks and earth fell all over the ground. The unpopular and filthy village has completely lost its original appearance at this moment, only a piece of brick and rubble is left, and the ground is in a mess.
"..." Ge Xiu took a deep breath and poked the man beside him with his elbow: "Hello."
The pale and gloomy man turned his head, and the cold and evil spirit deposited in his eyes was instantly swept away when he looked at Ge Xiu. His voice was cold and low, but his tone was imperceptibly delicate and gentle: "What?"
Ge Xiu raised his hand and pinched the bridge of his nose, feeling his forehead ache again:
"...You did all of this?"
The man's eyes drooped, his black and deep eyes fixedly stared at the young man in front of him, and nodded.
Ge Xiu slowly inhaled, exhaled, took a full deep breath, and then said slowly:
"This dungeon is a time dungeon. Even if the dungeon boss disappears, we have to stay here for at least three days before we can leave!!!"
He pointed to the crooked walls outside and the village where there was almost no complete building in the darkness, and asked through gritted teeth.
"Where do you want us to live now?!"
man:"… "
He really hadn't thought of this.
Ge Xiu lowered his eyes and glanced at the old woman who was curled up at his feet.
The old woman lying on the ground has turned into a dark and twisted shadow, and it cannot even condense into a complete entity. The wrinkled old face is sometimes blurred and sometimes clear, and it is almost difficult for the whole person to maintain a state of reality with clear edges. , but she is the boss of the entire dungeon after all. As long as this dungeon still exists, she will not die or dissipate.
Ge Xiu's eyes hurriedly swept over the other person, as if he was just passing a stone or a plant.
he asked:
"Have you had enough?"
The old woman shuddered, and subconsciously curled her translucent body even tighter, trying to shrink her sense of existence.
The man lowered his eyes gloomily, and glanced at the dark lump on the ground, the dark eyes flickered with a faint ferocity.
The pale thin lips were slightly raised, but there was still no warmth in the eyes:
"It's still early."
"Then don't play." Ge Xiu said ruthlessly: "It's a waste of time."
The man's gloomy and cold eyes rolled around on the old woman's body, and sighed regretfully:
"Pity."
Ge Xiu coolly glanced at the man standing beside him and said:
"You should regret the room I slept in tonight."
"..." The man knew he was wrong and fell into silence obediently.
Gossiu sighed and said:
"... Forget it, let's go, I have to go back and see how my teammates are doing this time."
In the dungeon, I haven't met a few ghosts yet, but halfway through my sleep, the house was blown down by the wind.
It must be an unforgettable experience in life.
In the courtyard that was completely destroyed by the strong wind, several disgraced players stood in embarrassment and looked at each other in the middle of the only empty space where they could settle down.
"You... have you encountered this kind of thing in other dungeons before?" One of the dusty players finally couldn't resist the urge to speak, and turned to look at the other few standing beside him with a complicated expression. player.
Everyone shook their heads slowly.
The hurricane that suddenly swept in in the middle of the night completely destroyed the houses where the players rested. After all, this was the first night in the dungeon, so the players were very vigilant, and the houses in the village were all loose. It's masonry, and the roof is also made of straw and tiles, so everyone crawled out of the rubble of the collapsed house basically unscathed—except for a few scratches.
Immediately afterwards, strangely, the gust of wind that had been whistling just now suddenly stopped, and after a few seconds of silence, a shrill scream sounded from a distance.
In the middle of the dark and empty ruins, the piercing screams became more and more terrifying.
The sound was so penetrating that it ripped apart the dark night sky almost instantly, and it came straight, making everyone's hearts slammed violently - what happened to make people feel so terrifying howling
But since it was still night, everyone really didn't dare to leave the courtyard to explore without any scruples, so they had to stand there in fear and sweat, waiting for fate to come.
After the scream finally disappeared, the players could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.
However, everything around me was too quiet.
No wind, no screams, nothing.
It was as if they were standing on a deserted piece of land, surrounded by rubble and debris, and an endless silence spread around them.
One of the players calmed down, looked around at the few people standing beside him, and said:
"Is everyone ready?"
Players start counting numbers.
Soon, they found that the only two people who lived in the same room disappeared.
The proposing player frowned: "Did you see where those two people went?"
Everyone shook their heads.
"It seems that I haven't seen them since the house collapsed," said one of the players.
"Yeah yeah."
"Yes, me too."
The rest of the players joined in.
"Will it be under the pressure?" A player asked tentatively: "How about we go digging and digging?"
"Tsk." Another player sneered: "I want to dig you to dig, I think they haven't climbed out for so long, if they were crushed to death, or died before the wind, why bother? "
While everyone was insisting on their own words, suddenly, a calm voice came from behind:
"What are you talking about?"
The players were bluffed, and immediately turned their heads to look in the direction of the sound coming from behind.
I saw a slender young man slowly walking out of the darkness. He stretched out his long legs and easily stepped over the bricks and tiles on the ground. His slightly larger shirt and jeans were clean and unstained. A little bit of dust is almost a world away from the disgraced players.
He put one hand in his pocket, his posture was naturally flat, and he had a powerful aura that could naturally shock the audience.
Everyone was stunned to watch him step in from outside the courtyard gate, obviously some couldn't believe what they saw in front of their eyes—he... Did he just come back from outside
One player came back to his senses first: "What about the newcomer who lives in the same room with you?"
"Dead." Ge Xiu said lightly.
died? !
Everyone was suddenly shocked and looked at each other in surprise.
One of them stepped forward and asked eagerly, "Dead? When did you die?"
Ge Xiu replied calmly, "Before I moved into that room."
-what
The players were stunned: "You mean...?"
"Yes." Ge Xiu nodded: "When you see her tonight, she is no longer alive."
What he said was very relaxed, but the players couldn't help but feel a chill behind their backs.
And, with that comes more questions.
How did he know? When did he find out? After finding out? Why did he come back from outside again? What exactly happened during that time? Is all this related to the gust of wind and screams just now
More importantly, is what he said true
Just when everyone was full of doubts, the young man in front of him seemed to have seen through their thoughts at a glance, and said:
"I'll take you to the ancestral hall at dawn, and you'll know after you watch it."
Player: "… "
Wait, what is the ancestral hall
It stands to reason that they have only just entered this dungeon for less than six hours, right? When did the ancestral hall, a building that doesn't sound right at first sight, appeared
Everyone looked at each other, and for a while they were a little suspicious of life.
The same doubts slowly surfaced in the hearts of everyone:
- Are we really playing the same game? !
Ge Xiu ignored them and walked towards the courtyard with his backpack.
He found a corner of a broken wall that looked relatively solid and sat down, then began to lean against the wall and closed his eyes.
Soon, the night faded and the sky brightened.
Although the sky is still cloudy, at least the surrounding scenery can be seen clearly.
This time the ancestral hall is much easier to find than at night.
— after all, it was the only building standing in the ruins.
The crowd cautiously stepped into the dark ancestral hall, and the heavy smell of blood and stale dust rushed towards them. The dark, statuesque coffins were placed deep in the ancestral hall, quietly sleeping in the shadows.
On the ground, there were human skin puppets torn apart by violence.
"There are no more living people in this village." Ge Xiu said, "The wedding we are going to attend tomorrow is also a ghost wedding."
He pointed to the coffins in the ancestral hall: "These are their coffins, from the villagers to the players, there are new and old."
A player hesitated and asked, "Then... what about the boss of this dungeon?"
"It's an old woman." Ge Xiu said succinctly: "She can only make dolls in pairs, one male and one female. I don't know the specific reasons, so I didn't ask in detail."
Everyone suddenly realized that the number of men and women who entered the dungeon this time was exactly the same - they thought it was a coincidence, but it turned out to be deliberate.
"Wait, didn't ask?" One of the players suddenly grasped the point.
"Yeah, after all, if you have to kill someone and get married, only personal hobbies can explain it." Ge Xiu replied thoughtfully: "I respect his personal hobbies, so I didn't ask much."
Everyone: "… "
Is this your focus
A player asked, "So what? Where is that boss now?"
Ge Xiu smiled slightly: "Don't worry, she doesn't dare to come out."
Under the gloomy and heavy clouds, the dark eyes of the young man flickered with a dim light, and a faint smile crossed his lips, with a secret and strange feeling.
Everyone stared at him in horror and shivered subconsciously.
—What terrifying thing is this man saying with a flat face? ! ! !
