Gu Jiu did not go back to his room to rest, but left Xiaoqiao Inn.
It was close to midnight. Except for some remote alleys, the main streets of the ancient town were still very busy. The lights of shops on both sides were bright, especially the bar street, which was the busiest time of the day.
Lu Ji followed her like a young wife, and when he saw her walking towards the bar street, he asked in a low voice: "Ajiu, where are you going?"
"I'm hungry, let's go find something to eat." Gu Jiu said lightly.
Lu Ji glanced at the bustling bar street and didn't quite believe it.
The bar street in the ancient town is built with ancient charm. Being in it, people have the illusion of traveling back to ancient times, which attracts many tourists.
The entrance was bustling with people coming and going. Standing at the door to greet the guests were waiters wearing various Chinese costumes with delicate makeup on their faces. There were beautiful and cute girls as well as young and handsome boys, who were particularly eye-catching.
Seeing several male waiters wearing Hanfu actively inviting Gu Jiu into the store, his face became a little stiff.
Fortunately, Gu Jiu waved to the waiters and had no intention of entering the store. The waiters looked disappointed and watched her leave reluctantly, their eyes full of tenderness.
Under the dim light, she was as beautiful as an ancient lady walking out of a painting. Once you take a look at her, you can't take your eyes away.
Not only the waiter was reluctant to leave, but even the passers-by on the street were reluctant to leave.
Lu Ji stood beside her calmly, trying to make it clear to the world that he and she were a couple.
"Ajiu, didn't you eat enough on the boat just now?" Lu Ji asked cautiously, not really believing it in his heart.
Although he wanted to kill the Ghost Emperor, he knew her character very well. The Ghost Emperor would definitely prepare a lot of food that she liked, and would even find a way to make her eat it, just like he usually fed her...
Thinking of this, his pale face turned slightly ashen.
Even though he knew that it was a part of him, he still found it difficult to control the jealousy in his heart. His greedy possessiveness only allowed him to have her all to himself, and no one else.
Gu Jiu said casually: "I didn't eat much."
"Why?"
Gu Jiu stopped and looked back at him, a smile on his face, and said leisurely: "I didn't know the relationship between him and you at the time, so I had to be on guard."
This is a game world. She can't trust the boss just because he has no ill will towards her, nor will she let her guard down just because of his undisguised love for her.
It's that simple.
The flower in his heart blossomed instantly, his depressed mood suddenly became cheerful, and Lu Ji smiled with his lips pursed.
She is always sober, but she will not be alert to the whole world because of this sobriety, and always maintains her good side.
The two of them still walked one in front and one behind, but this time Lu Ji's steps became lighter, and his dark eyebrows were relaxed.
Gu Jiu walked through the bar street, went to the food street to buy some food to take away, and then turned into another street.
At three o'clock in the morning, the shops on the street gradually closed, and Gu Jiu finally stopped.
She went into a secluded alley, where she found two unconscious players.
Gu Jiu first checked their vitals and found that they were still alive. He asked Lu Ji, "Do you have any more blood pills?"
"Yes." Lu Ji took out two blood pills and stuffed them into the two men's mouths. Seeing that Gu Jiu was about to lift up one of the male players, he quickly said, "Ajiu, there's no need to be so troublesome."
Several half-human-high paper figures appeared and carried the two players up.
Then, the paper man carried the two players and followed them out of the alley.
Fortunately, it was late at night and there were not many pedestrians on the street. Gu Jiu deliberately walked through some remote alleys to avoid pedestrians. This did not cause any commotion and he returned to Xiaoqiao Inn smoothly.
When the two came back, they alerted some players who were keeping watch for news of the death notice.
They opened the door and were surprised to see two unconscious players carried back by paper men. They didn't expect that the two players were not dead and were brought back by Gu Jiu and Lu Ji.
Judging from the appearance of these two players, they should be in the same situation as them, both of them were suddenly crushed by some terrible force.
All the players in the Xiaoqiao Inn woke up and surrounded the two unconscious players.
"Miss, you went out again just now?" Chai Yingying was surprised. "Did you go out to look for them specially?"
Gu Jiu said, "I'm hungry, let's go have a midnight snack, and bring it back if you see it."
All the players looked at her, without saying whether they believed it or not, but Gu Jiu's behavior did win their favor, and they subconsciously became closer to her.
Gu Jiu took out the food he had just packed and treated them to a midnight snack.
At this time, everyone was almost sober and didn't mind having a midnight snack. They sat together and talked about clues to the death notice while eating.
Gu Jiu and Lu Ji sat aside, listening to their analysis, but did not express their opinions.
Both of them knew the truth about the gaming world, but they couldn't tell these players about it, and they didn't know how to tell them, so it was better to remain silent.
Suddenly, Chai Yingying turned around and whispered to Gu Jiu, "Miss, I'm actually still very concerned about the appearance of that ghost groom. Why did he have to become like Lu Ji?"
She even changed her gender to become a man.
She sighed in her heart, could it be that these ghosts are sexist and look down on lesbians
However, the ghost groom is very powerful, and no one knows what his identity is in the game world.
Gu Jiu said calmly: "I don't know either. Maybe they didn't figure out Ah Ji's gender when they first entered the game world."
That's also possible.
Chai Yingying stopped hesitating and continued to analyze the clues currently obtained with everyone.
After eating supper, the two players finally woke up.
After listening to everyone's chatter, the two realized that it was Gu Jiu and Lu Ji who found them, brought them back, and fed them blood pills. They couldn't help but feel grateful to Gu Jiu and Lu Ji.
They all understood that if they remained unconscious and waited for the next death notice time to arrive, the consequences would be unimaginable.
After expressing their gratitude, the two readily transferred the blood pill points to Lu Ji.
The blood pill points are indeed expensive, but no matter how expensive it is, it is not as important as your own life. All players are very clear about this.
Gu Jiu stood up and said to them, "I'm going back to sleep, you guys continue chatting."
Lu Ji followed her back to the room silently.
After saying goodbye to them, the players continued to stay here. They had just rested for a while and felt much better. They decided to stay up all night and wait for the next death notice to arrive.
After returning to the room, Gu Jiu went to take a shower first.
Lu Ji looked at her, and felt particularly disappointed when he saw that she had no intention of taking him to take a bath together. He hesitated for a moment, but still couldn't muster up the courage to go over.
After Gu Jiu finished her shower, he went into the bathroom and took a quick shower. Then he came out slowly and saw that she was already lying on the bed sleeping. He felt even more lost and a little aggrieved.
He crawled into the bed, hugged the person on the bed tightly in his arms, rested his face in the crook of her neck, and called her like a dream.
"Ajiu..."
Gu Jiu had fallen asleep and was completely unaware of his worries.
He went to bed quite early at night and got up very early the next day.
She opened her eyes and saw the man leaning against her. She reached out and touched his face. When he opened his eyes, she asked, "Do gods also need sleep?"
"Not really." Lu Ji said carefully, "But I want to sleep with you."
Gu Jiu said "oh" and patted him, "Get up, let's see if there are any more death notices today."
There will definitely be death notices. Even if the boss of this world is part of Lu Ji's power, he still has to act according to certain rules. As long as the Ghost Emperor is not dead, he will continue to issue death notices to the players.
Either the player dies or he dies.
The two dressed up and went out, and saw a group of players waiting in the corridor. They all looked a little haggard, and it was obvious that they had not slept all night. The players were already seriously injured and had not rested well. No matter how tough the players' bodies were, they could not withstand such abuse.
"There were no death notices last night." Chai Yingying yawned and said, "I would have gone to bed if I had known."
Gu Jiu suggested: "Then you should go back and rest for a few hours. If there is any news of the death notice, we will call you."
How to call
When the other players were about to ask, they saw her take out a stack of small paper figures. The small paper figures moved as soon as they landed on the ground, taking small steps to follow the players. There was one beside each player.
"They will remind you." said Gu Jiu.
After being surprised, the players quickly relaxed.
In fact, the players also have some ghost doll-like props that can remind players who didn't notice the death notice when it arrives, but they are uneasy, so they decide to keep it by themselves. Gu Jiu's move is a strong guarantee for them, which makes them believe it inexplicably. They are not ungrateful people, so they thank her one after another and decide to go back to their room to rest.
Gu Jiu and Lu Ji went out for breakfast.
The ancient town is not as lively in the morning as at night, but many breakfast shops are open.
Gu Jiu and Lu Ji went to have mutton stew for breakfast. The mutton stew was served with fragrant and chewy fried dough cakes. Gu Jiu could finish three bowls of mutton stew and four washbasins-sized fried dough cakes by himself.
In order not to scare these ordinary people, she ate three bowls of food with restraint and then moved on.
After breakfast, Gu Jiu went to buy some snacks and brought them back. If other players saw this, they would think that she came to the game world specifically to travel and relax.
This is so comfortable.
At noon, all players woke up.
As they were worried about something, they didn't dare to sleep too deeply and got up as soon as possible.
The effect of the blood pill is really good. The players are all in good health and have no major problems.
Everyone was surprised to see Gu Jiu and Lu Ji still in the room.
"Aren't you going out today?" Tan Lan asked curiously.
Gu Jiu stretched his legs and hooked a chair to sit in the corridor, and said with a smile: "I will stay in Xiaoqiao Inn today and see how the death notice is."
Tan Lan and others couldn't help but think of yesterday's haunted cave, and a hint of fear appeared on their faces.
But if they were asked to go out, they would be hesitant because the two players that Gu Jiu and Lu Ji kindly picked up yesterday had also had very dangerous experiences outside.
Perhaps it was because of Gu Jiu's calm demeanor and the trust that Chai Yingying and Jiang Ze had in her that Tan Lan and the others thought about it and decided to stay.
If the Xiaoqiao Inn becomes a haunted den again, so many players gathering together can share some of the danger.
The players calmed down and were just about to eat something to fill their stomachs when they heard the ding-dong message alert sound from their phones.
Everyone perked up and quickly took out their phones to check the messages.
Haunted house maze.
