Dating The Fallen Lord

Chapter 33: Seven Sheep 3

Views:

The landlord disappeared very quickly, and this strange speed scared the newcomers.

The regular players were used to this. The NPCs in the game always came and went without a trace, and would suddenly appear when needed. In the two hours before dinner, they decided to personally check out the house.

"Ms. Gu, wait for me."

Gu Jiu and Lu Ji were about to go downstairs when a voice rang out.

Then a man ran up to them and gave them a handsome smile, "Are you going to the first floor? I'll go with you. It's too dangerous for you two girls to be in a place like this."

This statement attracted the attention of all the official players, and several male players couldn't help but sneer.

Who is in danger? Don't run away crying and begging a girl to save you.

Players just found it funny that Tu Shuai was still thinking about picking up girls in the game world. But after he was severely beaten by the game, they realized how undesirable this behavior was.

Tu Shuai naturally heard the sneers from the male players, but he didn't care. He thought that these male players must be jealous of his handsomeness and that he could please girls more easily than them.

Gu Jiu looked at him with a smile but did not refuse.

The three of them walked towards the stairs.

The stairs were very narrow, only allowing two people to walk down side by side. Gu Jiu and Lu Ji walked in front, and Tu Shuai followed behind. Along the way, he tried to bring up topics, chattering non-stop about his identity and interesting stories in the real world.

In the real world, Tu Shuai is a second-generation rich man whose family owns a mine. His handsome appearance like a cream boy makes him popular among women and he develops the character of a playboy. When he sees a beautiful girl, he can't help but want to flirt with her. After getting the girl, he will break up with her when he gets tired of her. Because he is very generous in giving the breakup fee, most girls will not make trouble with him.

Gu Jiu and Lu Ji remained silent and did not respond throughout the whole process.

Tu Shuai didn't care, as if he didn't need their response. He just continued talking to himself and had a great time performing his one-man show.

Arriving at the living room on the first floor, Gu Jiu pushed the door first, only to find that it was tightly closed and could not be opened from the inside.

She was not surprised by this. It seemed that the player's activities this time were limited to this house, just like in the previous copy "Bird in a Cage", where the player's activities were limited to the villa.

This is the case in many D-level game venues, where players' range of activities is not too large.

"Oh, you girls are too weak to push the door open. Let me do it!"

Tu Shuai saw an opportunity to show off, so he rolled up his sleeves with a smile and went to push the door until the veins on his hands popped out, but the door, which looked shabby and fragile, did not move.

This is embarrassing.

Facing the looks from the two girls, Tu Shuai gave a dry laugh and said, "Maybe the door is locked from the outside."

Gu Jiu found it interesting. It was rare to meet a man with such a thick skin, so he couldn't help but smile at him.

This smile made Tu Shuai feel happy.

His eyes were glued to her. He stroked the handsome bangs on his forehead and said, "Miss Gu, are you nearsighted? In fact, you can wear contact lenses, which will make you more beautiful. Of course, you are still beautiful even with glasses. Glasses make you very charming. The pair of glasses with thin gold rims you are wearing now suits your temperament very well..."

He praised Gu Jiu enthusiastically and used all his playboy tricks to seduce girls, but suddenly he felt a chill all over his body. When he turned around, he saw a pair of dull black eyes staring at him.

"Hah!" Tu Shuai was almost frightened to death.

Anyone who was in such a dark and eerie place and was suddenly stared at by such a pair of inorganic black eyes would be scared.

When he realized that the owner of the eyes was actually a living person, he couldn't help but complain: "Miss Lu, don't get so close in the future, it's scary."

Lu Ji said expressionlessly: "You are very noisy."

Tu Shuai shut his mouth silently.

For some reason, he was a little afraid of this girl named Lu Ji. She was obviously 17 or 18 years old, but she didn't have the brightness and vitality that a girl should have. Her skin was sickly pale, and her eyes were pure black, without a trace of luster. She appeared like a ghost. Even though she had an outstanding appearance, she was still very scary at first glance.

There is a door at the innermost part of the living room, which is the staircase door leading to the second floor. In addition to the main door, there are two more doors on the left and right sides.

Gu Jiu walked to the door on the left and after pushing it open, there was a very long passage.

It was very dark inside and there were no street lights. Gu Jiu took out a flashlight purchased from the game store and swept the flashlight inside, but it did not reach the end, which showed that the passage was very long.

Tu Shuai realized that his chance to show off was here, so he said, "Miss Gu, it's too dark here, let me lead the way for you. You girls should be treated with preferential treatment, and leave this kind of thing to men."

Someone came to her door to serve her, and Gu Jiu readily threw the flashlight to him, "Okay, you go ahead."

Tu Shuai gave her a handsome smile and walked forward with a flashlight.

The flashlight beam flickered on the ground. There were mottled walls on both sides of the passage, and no door was visible.

Tu Shuai walked and looked around, never forgetting to show himself.

"I've participated in the filming of some supernatural shows before. In fact, they weren't scary at all. It was only after the post-editing and the music that they looked scary. I have a lot of experience with this kind of environment..."

Tu Shuai talked for a while and suddenly felt that the surroundings were very quiet.

The quiet atmosphere suddenly hit his heart, making him feel a chill down his spine. The words in his mouth gradually stopped, and his steps also stopped.

He clenched the flashlight in his hand and asked tentatively: "Ms. Gu, Miss Lu, are you still there?"

There was no sound behind me.

Tu Shuai stood there stiffly. In the quiet and dark environment, he seemed to be able to hear his own heartbeat. His eyes stared straight ahead, not daring to look behind him.

But the darkness ahead is equally terrifying. It is like the huge mouth of a monster, waiting to swallow people.

The originally narrow space suddenly became extremely spacious, and wherever the darkness passed, there was endless space with no end.

"Miss Gu, Miss Lu, are you still here?" Tu Shuai's voice became trembling, and he said with difficulty, "If you are here, please make a sound, and stop playing..."

There was still no sound behind me.

Finally, Tu Shuai plucked up his courage and slowly turned around.

When he turned around, he subconsciously wanted to touch the wall next to him, but he touched nothing and almost fell. The flashlight light could clearly illuminate the walls on both sides of the passage before, but now it could not illuminate anything.

He seemed to be isolated in a dark space, and the two people had really disappeared.

Tu Shuai finally turned around, shone the flashlight into the darkness, and saw a pair of legs.

The legs were white and thin. If you looked closely, they looked like a pair of skeleton legs wrapped in flesh. The other parts were shrouded in darkness and could not be seen clearly.

You can tell at first glance that these are not normal people's legs.

Tu Shuai screamed in fear and turned and ran away.

He ran hard in the darkness like a headless fly, just trying to get rid of the strange pair of legs that suddenly appeared.

What terrified him was that he heard the sound of footsteps behind him. He didn't need to turn around to know that the owner of the legs was chasing him. The sound was getting closer and closer, as close as his ears.

A pale hand rested on his shoulder, and a cold breath brushed against his neck.

Tu Shuai suddenly screamed madly: "Ahhh—"

At this moment, a hand grabbed his arm and pushed him hard to the side.

Tu Shuai slammed into the wall, gritting his teeth in pain, his screams turned into cries of pain, and his handsome face was about to be flattened.

"What are you yelling about?" a cold voice shouted.

The voice was like a thunder, saving Tu Shuai from his terror. He covered his face and saw the figures of Gu Jiu and Lu Ji through the tears of pain.

Gu Jiu stood there, tilting his head slightly, as if thinking about something.

Lu Ji looked at him expressionlessly, a trace of evil flashed in his dark eyes...

Evil thoughts

Tu Shuai thought he had seen it wrong. He looked carefully again and found that the girl's eyes were filled with darkness and silence without any emotion. He thought he must have seen it wrong.

He said in surprise and fear: "Where did you go just now? I was walking and suddenly I couldn't see you."

As he spoke, he looked around with lingering fear. With the light of the flashlight, he could see that they were still in that dark passage, with mottled walls on both sides.

Gu Jiu came back to his senses and smiled, "We have been following you the whole time. Just now you suddenly screamed and ran around in circles. Fortunately, Ah Ji pulled you and woke you up."

Tu Shuai was stunned. Was everything that just happened just an illusion

At this time, Gu Jiu asked again: "What did you see just now?"

Tu Shuai quickly told her about his previous experience, and then saw the disappointment on her face.

Tu Shuai: “…” What is she disappointed about

Of course Gu Jiu was disappointed that the ghost didn't come to find him, otherwise he could have brought a ghost to ask about the situation of the house.

"Do you know what happened just now? Was it really my hallucination?" Tu Shuai asked nervously, wondering if he didn't get enough rest, so he had some hallucinations

"It's not an illusion." Gu Jiu said softly, "It should be a ghost wall. The legs you saw belong to some ghost."

Tu Shuai's hair stood on end, and his voice suddenly rose: "Ghost? You mean, there are ghosts, ghosts, ghosts here..."

Gu Jiu and Lu Ji looked at him without saying anything.

The reactions of the two people confirmed to Tu Shuai that there was indeed a ghost in this place, and he almost went crazy.

Although Ying Tong had explained the game to the newcomers before, Tu Shuai was busy looking at the female players at the time and did not listen carefully. In addition, Ying Tong's explanation was too simple and did not make the newcomers realize how dangerous and scary the game world is.

Seeing that he looked very weak, Gu Jiu took the flashlight on his own initiative.

Looking at the two girls walking in front, this time Tu Shuai didn't say anything to let him go ahead. He followed them closely with his head down, looking around vigilantly, afraid that the pair of skeleton-like legs would come out again and chase him.

After walking for a while, I finally reached the end.

There is a door at the end of the passage.

The door was an old-fashioned wooden door with a rusty lock on it. It looked rusty but could not be opened.

Gu Jiu and Lu Ji tried but were unable to pull off the padlock, so they realized that now was not the time to open it.

After checking the situation, the three of them walked back.

When they were almost at the door, they met Ying Tong and several male players. These male players were very convinced of Ying Tong and knew that she wanted to explore the first floor, so they followed her without saying a word.

Ying Tong saw the three people, looked at Tu Shuai who was drooping his head, and asked casually: "Have you finished the investigation? What's inside?"

"There's nothing, just a door at the end." Gu Jiu said casually.

Ying Tong didn't expect her to answer so readily. He thanked her and walked in with the other male players.

Then Gu Jiu checked the door on the right. It was a room full of clutter and had a smell of being sealed for a long time.

After checking all the doors on the first floor, Gu Jiu decided to go to the third floor.

As soon as the three of them reached the second floor, they saw the two fat brothers coming down from the third floor.

The fat man asked with a smile: "What did you find on the first floor just now?"

Gu Jiu gave a brief explanation and then asked them what they had discovered.

The fat man shrugged his shoulders. "The layout of the third floor is the same as the second floor. The rooms are exactly the same. Except that there is no furniture in the room, there is no other difference."

This house is a self-built house with three floors.

There are four doors in the living room on the first floor. One is the main door leading to the outside, one is the staircase door leading to the second floor, one is a long passage behind the door with a locked door at the end of the passage, and one door leads to a room for storing miscellaneous items.

The layout is simple and clear at a glance.

The second floor is where the players live, with a living room for dining, thirteen separate rooms, a kitchen, and a bathroom. The bathroom is quite large, like a public bathroom, with several bathing cubicles.

The layout of the third floor is the same as that of the second floor, except that there is no furniture or living equipment.

"This house is not very big. At present, apart from the locked door at the end of the first floor passage, there is nothing special about it." The fat man stroked his chin and thought, "Could the thing behind that door be the key to the game?"

Gu Jiu said, "That's possible." She remembered something and suddenly laughed, "It's quite interesting."

What's interesting

Everyone present looked at her. The fat man and the thin man knew from her expression that she had discovered something. Seeing that she had no intention of explaining, they did not ask. Anyway, she would tell them when necessary.

Only Tu Shuai looked confused. In his confusion, he felt that Gu Jiu was not the kind of innocent and delicate lady who could be easily flirted with as he had imagined.

Miss Jiao would not be as calm as she is in such an environment. Not only did she dare to scold the weird landlord, she also dared to search everywhere in such an environment. She was extremely brave.

Is this the difference between a regular player and a newcomer

The two hours passed quickly.

The players looked at the time and took the initiative to return to the living room on the second floor, waiting for the landlord to prepare dinner for them.
