The fat man has experienced three games, which allows him to understand the general performance of newcomers entering the game world.
He had never seen any newcomer as reckless as Gu Jiu.
Perhaps some newcomers took the initiative to fight against the ghosts out of ignorance, foolishly tested the ghosts, and finally became a test stone for senior players. But Gu Jiu was definitely not that kind of ignorant newcomer, otherwise she would not have taken the initiative to ask them about their experiences in the game world in great detail the day before yesterday, clearly to learn from them in advance.
So he didn't think she was seeking death.
"What are you going to do?" the fat man asked in confusion. "What if the three people from the Li family are ghosts? It would not be wise for us to go there and confront the ghosts. In the game world, there are dangers even in broad daylight."
The game world is not the real world, so there is no restriction that ghosts cannot appear in broad daylight.
Even the thin guy who never cared about external things became a little more curious.
Gu Jiu said, "I didn't do anything. I just wanted to get through the game as soon as possible and go home." She sighed, "The game world is too difficult. The living environment is poor. I sleep on a hard bed. The hot water system for bathing is sometimes not working. How can a girl take a cold shower? It's so harmful to the body! And I will be attacked when I sleep at night, and I will be in pain..."
The fat brothers: “…” Her summary was so correct that they were speechless.
Then, the two brothers looked at Lu Ji.
Compared to Miss Jiao, this patient seems to need more care.
Lu Ji: “…”
The two fat brothers really didn't know what to say about Gu Jiu's reason for wanting to clear the game, because she was so right. Any normal person would not be able to tolerate anything in the game world and would find fault with everything.
Most importantly, it is deadly. Countless players have died in the game world, leaving no trace behind.
But is there any way
Once they were pulled into the game world, they had no way of getting out and could only do everything they could to survive.
The four of them walked slowly towards Old Li's house.
Seeing Gu Jiu moving like a turtle, the fat man had an urge to carry her up.
"I can't help it. My waist still hurts, so I can't walk too fast." Gu Jiu said gloomily, holding his hands on his waist and pressing it gently from time to time. "By the way, can you help me find a stick that's handy? Not too heavy."
This made the two fat brothers a little confused.
"What are you looking for a stick for? You don't think a stick can be used against ghosts, do you?" Wasn't it proven last night that ordinary wooden sticks pose no threat to ghosts
Gu Jiu said: "You need a weapon that works well. It's also good for pretending."
The fat brothers were speechless again.
Finally, the fat man found a rolling pin in the village chief’s kitchen. He didn’t know why the rolling pin in the village chief’s house was longer than usual. Because it was used frequently, the pin was very smooth.
Gu Jiu weighed it in his hand and sighed, "It's a bit heavy."
Heavy
The fat man thought to himself, this rolling pin is not even as heavy as a brick. She is indeed a delicate girl. She would probably be out of breath even if she moved a brick.
Because she thought it was too heavy, the fat man kindly helped her carry it. The three of them kept up with her slow pace and continued to head towards Lao Li's house.
On the way, he met Wu Yang, Lin Dandan and Wang Peiping. When they saw Gu Jiu, who was like the moon surrounded by stars, their expressions were a little subtle.
The fat brothers and Lu Ji walked behind Gu Jiu. Seeing that they deliberately slowed down their pace, it was obvious that they were cooperating with Gu Jiu. People who didn’t know might think that these three were Gu Jiu’s followers.
But Gu Jiu acted as if it was a matter of course, as if it was her right that everyone supported her.
Wu Yang asked: "Miss Gu, how is your health?"
Gu Jiu smiled at him and said, "Thank you for your concern, Brother Wu. Apart from the pain in my waist, everything else is fine."
These words caused Lin Dandan and Wang Peiping to curl their lips. She was just knocked under the bed by a ghost and didn't even have a scratch, but she looked like she was dying. Even a white lotus couldn't act like her.
Wu Yang saw that her face was pale and she was not as energetic as yesterday. He wanted to say something, but he didn't want to talk too much, so he asked, "Where are you going?" He looked at the rolling pin in the fat man's hand and wondered what he was doing with a rolling pin.
The fat man said, "Let's go to Lao Li's house and see the three generations of Lao Li's family."
Wang Peiping and Lin Dandan's faces changed instantly, remembering that when they came back last night, the door of Old Li's first floor was ajar... Although they knew they had to investigate, they felt timid when they thought about the abnormality in Old Li's house.
Wu Yang said without hesitation: "Let's go too."
When we arrived at Lao Li's house, we saw that the doors of the three rooms on the first floor were still closed.
They stood in the yard, looking at the three closed doors in front of them, and did not move for a while.
Gu Jiu walked slowly over and came to the door on the left.
Lin Dandan and Wang Peiping didn't expect her to take the initiative to go over. They were stunned for a moment, and then found that Wu Yang and the others actually followed her and came to the door.
The two men felt their scalps tingling and wanted to turn around and leave.
Gu Jiu looked at the door and asked, "I don't have the strength, who will knock on the door?"
Without waiting for anyone else to speak, Wang Peiping quickly said, "Will the first person to knock on the door trigger some kind of death mechanism? You took the initiative to come here this time, so you should be the one knocking on the door."
Everyone was stunned. Based on their experience of playing several games, this was indeed possible.
But you can't just stand here like an idiot, right
Wu Yang said: "Let me knock on the door."
He raised his hand and started knocking on the door, saying, "Is anyone home? We are tenants and we brought you some gifts."
This on-the-spot reaction was quite good. Although the people in Old Li's family might be ghosts, as tenants, they should be polite first. They could use courtesy before force.
I knocked on the door for a long time, but there was no response from inside.
Gu Jiu said: "Brother Wu, kick the door."
Everyone: “…” Miss, please don’t be so reckless.
Perhaps these words stimulated the person (or ghost) in the house, and the door finally opened with a creaking sound, and then a crack appeared, and then the crack slowly opened.
Everyone looked down and saw that the person who opened the door was a four-year-old child.
The child is as skinny as a thin man. His skin is pale and his eyes are big black. When he looks at people straight, he looks particularly creepy.
Wang Peiping and Lin Dandan almost screamed and took a few steps back.
The fat man's legs were shaking as he held his brother's hand tightly. The thin man was pulled so hard that he wanted to kick him out.
In contrast to them, Wu Yang, Gu Jiu and Lu Ji were very calm.
Seeing how calm these three people were, Lin Dandan and the others were a little stunned. Wu Yang was fine, as he had always been very courageous, but Gu Jiu and Lu Ji were both newcomers. Aren’t they afraid of ghosts
This year's newcomers are really amazing.
The child who opened the door looked at them steadily without saying anything.
"Little boy, where are your parents?" Gu Jiu asked with a smile.
The child who opened the door didn't say anything, but opened the door, silently inviting them in.
Who dares to go in here? ! ! Is there a den of ghosts in there
Just as Lin Dandan and the others were thinking about it, they saw Gu Jiu go in first, followed closely by Lu Ji and Wu Yang, and they actually went in like that.
The two fat brothers hesitated and decided to follow, and finally Lin Dandan and Wang Peiping were left. The two refused to go in no matter what, and stood outside the door and looked inside, but the room was too dark, and one meter outside the door was shrouded in darkness and could not see clearly.
Those people seemed to suddenly disappear into the darkness.
The room was indeed dark, but it was not a big problem for Gu Jiu.
After Wu Yang and the others' eyes adjusted to the darkness, they could vaguely see the outline of the room. At the innermost part was an old-fashioned bunk bed, which was commonly seen in the countryside. There were also cabinets, tables, and sofas in the room, filling up the small room.
Gu Jiu asked again: "Little friend, where are your parents?"
The silent child slowly raised his hand and pointed at the bed inside.
Gu Jiu looked over and continued to ask: "It's too dark in the room, can you turn on the light?"
Then I saw the child silently light the oil lamp on the table. The light from the oil lamp was very dim, but fortunately the room was not big and it did not affect anything.
The five people came to the bed and saw two people lying on it. One was an old lady with sparse white hair and wrinkles on her face, and the other was a thin middle-aged man in his forties. They should be Lao Li and his mother.
