"elder sister?!"
Qi Xiaokui's body stiffened in shock. She almost suspected that there was something wrong with her ears!
"Xiao Kui, it's me." A gentle female voice said with a smile. "You can't even recognize my sister's voice? That's right, I haven't seen you for fifteen years, and now my Xiaokui is already a big girl."
"Sister, you, you're not..." Qi Xiaokui was like a helpless little girl, stammering and speechless. The person she was missing just now appeared next to her. Was she dreaming?
"After I died, I entered this game somehow," the woman's voice was soft and soothing, and she sounded like a woman with a gentle personality. "I became one of the NPCs in the game and have been on this bus all the time. Look. Looking at the players coming and going, I didn’t expect to meet you this time.”
"Sister..." Qi Xiaokui couldn't help but wet her eyes, and two wet marks quickly appeared on the blindfold. She reached out to touch the side and was grabbed by a soft and smooth hand.
After listening to her sister's words, Qi Xiaokui was greatly shocked. It turns out that this is the case. Her sister has become an NPC in this game! And she also entered this game fifteen years later. Is this God's will
"Sister! Sister!" Qi Xiaokui couldn't say anything else, she just kept calling her sister Qi Xiaorou, and Qi Xiaorou responded with a gentle smile.
Ever since her parents divorced and her sick sister was abandoned by both parties and eventually died due to lack of money for medical treatment, the world in Qi Xiaokui's eyes was black and white. She never thought that she would see the only sister who would be good to her in her lifetime. With tears in her eyes, she heard Qi Xiaorou say: "Xiaokui, don't you want to see your sister?"
Without thinking, Qi Xiaokui put her hand on the blindfold and prepared to pull it off.
"Genzi, Genzi?" An old voice sounded in Li Yougen's ears.
"Mom?" Li Yougen, who was curled up tightly in a ball and trying to completely isolate himself from the surrounding environment, also heard a familiar voice and screamed in disbelief.
"It's mother, Genzi, where is this place?" Zhao Chunhua, Li Yougen's mother, asked with a trembling voice, "Mother was sleeping at home just now, why did she come here as soon as she opened her eyes? What is this place for?" Son, are you dreaming?"
Li Yougen remembered that his mother had never been to the city in her entire life in the village. She had seen very few cars, and she had never been on a bus once.
But he was a little suspicious. Could this be an illusion or a trap? So he turned his head slightly and asked his mother: "Mom, when is my birthday?"
"March 21st," Zhao Chunhua said without thinking, "it's only three days later than your cousin. What's wrong?"
Li Yougen paused and immediately asked, "Is my father okay at home?"
Zhao Chunhua patted him hard on the arm, "Are you stupid for going to school? Your father has been dead for more than ten years, why do you still mention him?"
"Then do you still remember when I was ten years old and I was swimming in the river behind the village and almost got swept away by the water?"
"I remember, but it was not when you were ten, but when you were eight, you and the pillar next door scared your mother to tears."
"..." Li Yougen fell silent.
"Genzi, what's wrong with you? What kind of place is this?" Zhao Chunhua suddenly arrived in a strange place and was a little scared. She grabbed Li Yougen's arm and shook him, "Genzi, why are you covering your eyes? What's wrong with your eyes? Are they injured? Let me take a look!"
"No, mother, I covered it on purpose. You should close your eyes quickly and don't open them!" Li Yougen couldn't understand why his mother was involved in the game. This is simply too bad. , thinking about what he has experienced, if he endures it just once, his mother will probably have a heart attack and will not survive at all!
"Why..." Zhao Chunhua only said half a sentence, and then screamed. Li Yougen felt that the hand holding his arm was as stiff as a tree root, and then became soft for a moment. Zhao Chunhua gasped, "Why, What's going on... What a pair of big eyes... Genji, is mom asleep?"
"No!" Li Yougen was also anxious, "Mom, close your eyes quickly, don't open them, don't open them."
"Okay, mother, shut up..." Zhao Chunhua said: "But why is there a number on mother's head? It was 5 just now, and now it is 4... Hey, who bit my eyelids! Ah! It hurts! Ah -"
Listening to the movement, it must be that Zhao Chunhua couldn't hold back the pain on her eyelids, opened her eyes, and then died again.
"Mom, cover your eyes with your hands, hurry up! Hurry up!" Li Yougen was anxious at the side.
"Someone is pulling my hand!" Zhao Chunhua screamed, "Something is pulling on my eyelids! It hurts! It hurts me to death! Ouch! Eyes! Such scary eyes! Mom can't move!"
Li Yougen was so anxious that he unknowingly counted the number of Zhao Chunhua's deaths in his mind: 5, 4, 3, 2...
Two lives left...
Zhao Chunhua was still screaming, "Genzi, save mother, save mother quickly!"
Li Yougen couldn't help but touch the cloth on his eyes with his hands. As long as he untied the cloth and covered Zhao Chunhua's eyes, he could save his mother, but... But what about himself...
He thought of the number "1" above his head, which was like a time bomb, and also thought of his own mother who had worked hard to raise him up alone, and also sold iron to send him to the city to study. His fingers couldn't help but tremble, and he couldn't make a choice in his heart.
Which is more important, your own life or his mother's life
"Ahhh-" Zhao Chunhua screamed again, the sound was shrill and sad, tearing her son's heart bloody, and the number above her head became "1".
"Genzi - Genzi -" Zhao Chunhua's pleas became increasingly weak, and finally, "1" became "0".
Li Yougen's hand was always pressed on the blindfold. Until the last second, only his little finger twitched hard and there was no other movement.
Zhao Chunhua's voice disappeared.
Xiong Jiabao sat obediently in his seat, his back straightened nervously, and his serious expression did not match his non-mainstream attire at all.
Soon, he felt someone come and sit down next to him, bringing a gust of fragrance. It must be a woman.
"The scent of this woman's perfume is so familiar. It's exactly the same as the perfume Xiaoping uses." Xiong Jiabao thought to himself.
"Brother Jiabao?" A surprised female voice came from beside him.
Is it really Bai Ping? !
"Xiaoping, why are you here!" Xiong Jiabao exclaimed.
Bai Ping covered her mouth and chuckled, "Why are you still so stupid? I'll take the bus home."
"But... but this bus... you shouldn't get on..." Xiong Jiabao was a little anxious.
"This bus is a bit strange." Bai Ping seemed a little confused, "Why are there children on the bus? Did I get on the wrong school bus? But you were there too, so it shouldn't matter. You have a cloth over your eyes. Are you playing hide-and-seek with the kids?”
"No, I am..." Xiong Jiabao was shocked and incoherent, unable to explain clearly, "Why are you here? You shouldn't be here! Do you, do you know the horror game system?"
"Horror games? I've never played them before," Bai Ping looked at him, straightened her face, and educated him in a serious tone, "You always liked playing games before, and you even imitated other people's dressing up in this fancy rural non-mainstream look. , I really can’t appreciate it. Auntie’s hair is almost turning gray. Can’t you be more mature? I’m about to get married. You don’t want to attend my wedding with such colorful hair, do you?”
Xiong Jiabao was stunned. Hearing the news that she was getting married, he immediately threw all games and systems behind his head. His face was full of shock, "Wha, what? Yue... you are getting married?!"
"Yes!" Bai Ping's tone became brisk again, "The wedding is scheduled for next week. I remember that I have sent a wedding invitation to your family. Didn't you see it?"
"No..." Xiong Jiabao murmured in despair, and asked unwillingly, "When did you fall in love? Why don't I know at all!"
"Hey, we fell in love at first sight. We just met last month and decided to get married this month." Bai Ping stuck out her tongue playfully, "How about it, it's quite fashionable, right?"
Xiong Jiabao was full of bitterness. He and Bai Ping grew up together and had liked her for many years. He also thought about confessing to her as soon as he got out of the game, but... But how could she become someone else's in the blink of an eye? Bride? !
"Flash marriages are unreliable, really," Xiong Jiabao tried to persuade. "Nine out of ten flash marriages end up getting divorced. Think about it again, Xiaoping? You have only known him for a short time, and you don't know him at all. What should you do if he is a scumbag?!"
Bai Ping was a little unhappy, "You're saying something bad about him before you've even seen him face to face. Brother Jiabao, how did you become like this?"
"I..." Xiong Jiabao was speechless.
"Well, just look at him and you will know that he is right next to me!" Bai Ping said, "I have always regarded you as my brother. Of course I hope to get your blessing on my marriage. Come and help me see it. Look at him and then say if it’s okay!”
Bai Ping's voice was full of confidence, as if she had really found a husband who could make her proud and happy, and a somewhat thin and vague voice came from the other side: "You are Xiao Ping's brother, right? I’m not a scumbag, so just leave Xiaoping to me without any worries.”
Xiong Jiabao's blood rushed to his head, and the hair on his head seemed to explode like a hedgehog. He didn't have any good impressions of this guy who stole his woman. He cursed: "Don't worry? How can I be relieved? I think you are so fucking stupid He’s just a scumbag!”
"Brother Jiabao! I'm going to be angry if you say that again!" Bai Ping said angrily.
Xiong Jiabao was extremely upset, and vaguely felt the man coming to him again, whispering in his ear in a weird, feminine voice, "You like her, right? In fact, I can tell, but it's useless , she is already mine, you coward, coward, just rely on your own hands for the rest of your life!"
Different from before, Bai Ping couldn't hear clearly. The man tore through the polite disguise. The tone he spoke in his ear was full of malice and ridicule. Xiong Jiabao's eyes almost turned red with excitement, and he shouted at the voice. He punched me from the direction he came from, "Asshole! I will never let Xiaoping marry you!"
However, due to the obstruction of his line of sight, his punch naturally failed. The man stepped back a few steps and laughed jokingly.
Xiong Jiabao was so angry that he couldn't care about anything else and pulled off the blindfold.
A pair of huge, mocking stone eyes slightly curved into a crescent moon towards him.
Xiong Jiabao was stiff all over.
"3" became "2"...
