All the players who saw this scene felt a jolt in their hearts.
Zeng Yishuang's condition is very wrong, it seems that he has lost his mind in the A-level copy!
Unlike other players who have to stay for ten minutes when visiting, this is Zeng Yishuang's own home. There is no need to stay for ten minutes. There is no need to get into a fight with Zeng's father.
Moreover, there is a huge gap in their strength. Even Zeng's fighting skills cannot make up for this huge gap. Being able to severely injure Zeng's father is already the current limit of his strength. A rational player should quickly leave the battle and escape at this time.
But now Zeng Yishuang is risking his own serious injury or even death and continues to attack Zeng's father.
"Youyou, run!" The woman lying on the ground was very weak, bleeding, and her skin exposed outside her clothes was covered with miserable wounds. She was looking towards the direction where the players were running away with difficulty, and said in a trembling voice: "Hurry up and run!"
This Zeng's mother seems to be able to tell that they are not Zeng Yishuang
Tang Ning looked at the girl in the house. She was holding a bloody knife tightly, with a determination to fight to the death in her eyes. She even turned a deaf ear to her mother's pleas.
"Zeng Yishuang!" Tangning shouted at the girl in the room, "Calm down!"
Tang Ning knew that words were powerless in such a situation when she was trapped in the pain of family relationships in the card world. However, there were some things she had to tell Zeng Yishuang. Just like Lin Yun had told her before, many times, people who were deeply trapped in it only needed that little help.
"You are all fake monsters! You are wearing the skin of your loved ones! No matter who you are..."
Her mother's gentle smile flashed before Tang Ning's eyes. When she smiled, crow's feet appeared at the corners of her eyes, revealing a little bit of her gums. She called Ningning softly in a hoarse voice.
—"Why are you crying? Mom loves you too."
Lying on Wuliang's back, Tangning frowned. Her dark eyes looked like she was about to cry. Her voice was filled with sobs, like a child who couldn't find his way home. "Whether it's love or hate, it's all fake."
“It’s all fake”
The Mermaid Princess card made Tangning's voice extremely emotionally infectious. Even the people in the room who were about to be overwhelmed by murderous intent suddenly sobered up for a moment and raised their eyes to look at Tangning. Their eyes were clear, but they were also sad and desperate.
It was as if she was telling Tangning, I know it's fake, but so what? I don't care anymore.
Tangning was stunned by the gaze. She blinked blankly and tears rolled down from her thick eyelashes.
The man lying on the ground seized this momentary gap, stood up suddenly and strangled Zeng Yishuang's neck.
not good!!!
Tang Ning looked at them in panic and found that five Zeng fathers were about to rush down from the corridor outside the house. The players did not care about Zeng Yishuang's situation and continued to run down frantically. Wuliang also ran away.
Tang Ning looked at Zeng Yishuang with a red face, and tried desperately to pry the man's hands apart. She gritted her teeth, grabbed the porcelain doll in her hand and threw it towards Zeng Yishuang!
Tang Ning remembered that when he first met his great-grandfather, he seemed to be afraid of the porcelain doll in his hand. Although he didn't know whether the doll was useful, it was better than not trying at all.
Tang Ning wanted to see what was going on in the house, but Wuliang had already rushed downstairs carrying Tang Ning on his back. The players were running wildly, and the five Zengfus were chasing them. The porcelain doll fell to the ground in the house, making a crisp cracking sound.
Five identical men stopped in place at the same time.
Zeng's mother's crying in the corridor also stopped abruptly.
The first one to run out of the building, Lin Yun, broke away from the form of a child and turned into an adult. The second one to rush out, Jiang Mianmian, paused for a moment, stood on the steps, raised his head, and looked towards the Zeng family's entrance.
The other players also stopped. Tangning twisted her body on Wuliang's back. Suddenly, she heard a familiar and gentle male voice coming from the dead silent room: "A harmonious family is the foundation of everything. When a family is living in harmony, the most important thing is to be harmonious."
Is that Su Anyun's voice? !
"If you really want to fight, don't involve my child." The man's voice said gently: "I can't bear to touch a finger myself, don't you agree, Mr. Zeng?"
Someone was talking in the room.
There was a rustling sound, and Tang Ning saw a bloody hand reaching out from the house, followed by Zeng's miserable face. He covered his injured abdomen with one hand and climbed the ground with the other hand with difficulty.
There was so much blood that it kept flowing out from between his fingers.
Lu Yuhua ran over and took out a black pill from her arms. Tangning remembered this healing item, the M&Ms that could cure all diseases.
Zeng Yishuang shook his head and said softly, "No need."
"I'm injured myself, I know it myself, there's no need to waste props."
Lu Yuhua took back the props, and his eyes fell on a certain place on Zeng Yishuang, as if he was looking at a monster on Zeng Yishuang, and then nodded, as if to agree with the view that Zeng Yishuang had saved him.
Zeng Yishuang raised his eyes to look at Tang Ning and smiled with difficulty, his mouth shape seemed to say "How cute".
"Tangning, come here." He said softly.
Putting the unscrupulous Tang Ning down, Tang Ning quickly climbed the stairs with his short legs and soon ran in front of Zeng Yishuang. Zeng Yishuang stretched out his hand, held Tang Ning's hand with his bloody hand, and raised it. The pair of eyes that were always gloomy suddenly became very clear at the end of his life.
Tang Ning's face was reflected in these dark eyes.
"You know what?"
Looking at Tang Ning quietly.
In fact, I have always liked watching Tang Ning. It has nothing to do with love. It is about going to the dark and dull card world to see some bright and beautiful things.
"Same as our mother."
Varied
Tang Ning was very confused.
"But don't be like me." The voice became softer and softer, until Tang Ning could hardly hear what it was saying. Just as Tang Ning put her ear close to it, trying to get closer, the person holding Tang Ning's hand suddenly loosened and Zeng fell to the ground with his eyes open.
Tangning lowered her head blankly and looked into those dull eyes.
This person was still looking at her, with focus and interest. Tang Ning blankly touched Zeng's hands, which were cold and motionless.
"Tang Ning?!" The players behind him called out anxiously. Tang Ning turned around and saw that the other players were all looking at the Zeng family's entrance with vigilance.
Tang Ning followed everyone's gaze and saw the porcelain doll on the threshold.
It was a porcelain doll that looked like Su Anyun, but there were two cracks on its body, from the corner of the lip to the base of the ear. The cracks were as red as blood, adding a bit of ominousness to its originally gentle smile.
Tang Ning also saw that his great-grandfather and great-mother were staring at the doll. His great-grandfather was not only looking at the doll, but also staring at Tang Ning from time to time.
The same was true for several other great-grandfathers in the corridor. Tang Ning was like a lamb that had strayed into a pack of wolves. No wonder his players were so worried.
Tang Ning quickly picked up the porcelain doll. This time the doll seemed to be colder than before. After Tang Ning changed, she had to hold the doll with both hands to keep it steady. When she lowered her head, she saw the doll's lips cracked. The false smile disappeared in the blood, leaving only a greedy and creepy feeling.
Tang Ning was extremely nervous. He turned the doll over so that the back of the doll was facing him. Then, holding the doll, Tang Ning rushed towards the player.
When the unscrupulous people saw the porcelain doll in Tang Ning's arms, their expressions became solemn and nervous, as if they saw their teammates rushing towards them with explosives.
Jiang Mianmian, who stopped at the entrance of the corridor, rushed down and also broke away from the child form and turned into his original form. Then came Wuliang, Zhou Kang, and Lu Yuhua.
Tang Ning was running at the back, stumbling along with the porcelain doll in his arms. Heads popped out from the Zeng family's door behind him. The Zeng fathers were staring at Tang Ning's back, as if they were worried about something and were about to rush out to chase after her.
Tang Ning ran up this flight of stairs with difficulty. The moment he reached the next floor, he changed from a child to a tall young man.
All of us stood in front of a big door, the key was still in the lock, everything seemed to be exactly the same as before we entered, except that now there was a pair of corpses lying quietly in front of them.
The blood stained the carpet in front.
Dead.
Wuliang Key pulled out a key from inside and let out a long breath. "Finally it came out."
As Wuliang spoke, the bruise on the corner of his lip moved, and he couldn't help but gasp. The bruise was caused by a punch from Zeng's father when he first entered Zeng's house, and now the injury has also been borne by the adult.
Not only was Wuliang, but the other players around him all had scars of varying sizes. Tang Ning had a particularly noticeable wound on his forehead due to his physical condition.
"Now let's talk briefly about what happened when we entered Zeng's house." Wuliang rubbed the corner of his lips and couldn't help but look in the direction of the porcelain doll in Tangning's arms. After looking for a second, he quickly looked away as if he was pricked by something.
"I remember that although we have all changed just now, Tang Ning is the most different. Why don't we start from when we met Tang Ning?" Jiang Mianmian suggested.
Everyone disagreed. All the players looked at Tangning. Tangning forced herself to calm down and not pay attention to Zeng Yishuang's death. "I didn't explore much. When I first entered and found that I was five years old, I chose to escape from Zeng's house. I saw Zeng Yishuang's mother doing a job..."
Tangning briefly recounted what she had seen, and then it was Lin Yun's turn. "I was about seven or eight years old when I entered Zeng's house. When I first entered, I hid in the room with Zeng Yishuang's mother. Zeng's father-in-law was chopping with a kitchen knife. After he cut the lock, Zeng Yishuang's mother shouted at me to run. The scene was too chaotic at the time, and I was accidentally injured and chose to run away."
Tang Ning remembered that Zeng Yishuang said the room lock was broken. Was this the reason
It was Jiang Mianmian's turn to speak. "I was about nine years old. When I entered Zeng's house, I heard Zeng Yishuang's parents arguing about divorce. While they were arguing, I ran to their bedroom and looked around. There were darts and a target in the bedroom, which should have been used by Zeng Yishuang's father. There were also slingshots and marbles. I took some of them as weapons."
"Zeng Yishuang's father threatened to kill Zeng Yishuang's mother's relatives if they wanted a divorce. He also said that even if they divorced, Zeng Yishuang's mother had a house and a job that paid well, and she would not let her daughter live a good life."
Jiang Mianmian looked at Tangning and Lin Yun, "Compared to the two of you, Zeng Yishuang's father was more aggressive towards me. As soon as I showed up, he started scolding me, basically accusing me of encouraging Zeng's mother to divorce, and saying that if Zeng's mother remarried, my stepfather would molest me. He got angrier and angrier, and attacked me directly. I had too few marbles, and I got entangled with too many."
Lu Yuhua touched his shoulder and said, "My situation is even worse than Jiang Mianmian's. Zeng's father beat me with a belt right away. Zeng Yishuang's father even scolded me for calling the police. Zeng's mother rushed over to block the belt for me and told me to run away. Because Zeng's father's attack intention was too strong, I chose to run away too."
Wuliang smiled bitterly. "In my case, I punched Zeng's father as soon as I entered, but the difference in strength was too great. I was pinned to the ground and beaten the next second. If I hadn't learned something before, I would have been beaten to death."
Everyone looked at Zhou Kang. Zhou Kang was about fifteen or sixteen years old and was the oldest among all the players except Zeng Yishuang.
According to what each player has said now, everyone has discovered that as they get older, although everyone's physical strength has increased, their aggressiveness towards their great-father has also increased. The situation is already so dangerous, so what situation did Zhou Kang encounter when he first entered
Unlike the injured players, Zhou Kang was still a clean fat guy, looking a little listless, with drooping eyelids, and said slowly: "My situation is different from yours."
"My father once beat and scolded me, and came out of the bedroom and told me to cook."
Everyone looked at Zhou Kang in surprise. Jiang Mianmian asked, "If someone attacked you, why did you run away after only being a guest for ten minutes?"
Zhou Kang seemed very tired, and he didn't even have the strength to stand. He slowly squatted on the ground and said weakly: "My card makes me very sensitive to food."
"It's in the refrigerator," Zhou Kang said softly, "and it's not very good stuff."
Tang Ning stood there in a daze.
Zeng Yishuang's words seemed to ring in my ears again, "We have the same mother."
In fact, when Tang Ning heard this sentence for the first time, she understood what it meant. Zeng Yishuang had never had a mother, and the little he knew about Tang Ning's mother came from Tang Ning's introduction.
On the first day of the dungeon, when everyone gathered together to introduce their family situations, Tangning said to everyone -
"My mother seems to be dead."
The players present were silent for a while. Lin Yun frowned and asked, "How could this be? Why did Zeng Yishuang hide this important information?"
"No, it's not necessarily a deliberate concealment," Tang Ning murmured. The image of the girl holding the knife and the eyes they exchanged seemed to emerge in his mind. It was a clear, sad and desperate look.
It seemed that he suddenly understood why the other party showed such eyes, "Maybe he didn't know before."
Wuliang nodded, "I have looked into Zeng Yishuang's information before. It said that Zeng Yishuang's mother eloped with someone else when she was fifteen and has come back ever since. Zeng Yishuang's father died suddenly of alcoholism one day when he was an adult."
Tang Ning lowered his head, staring blankly at Zeng Yishuang's body lying in a pool of blood. The girl had shoulder-length hair, which was different from the hairstyle of a 17 or 18-year-old.
Why did you keep your hair very short during adolescence? Why did you choose to grow your hair long after you became an adult? Have you ever doubted the rumors that your mother eloped
All questions could not be answered by a dead person. Tang Ning squatted down, stretched out his hand, and gently closed Zeng Yishuang's eyes.
The hand was retracted, and the eyes opened again, and he fell in front of this house as if he died with his eyes open.
Tangning thought for a moment and said softly, "Youyou, you did a great job. You ran this time."
The bloody palm passed across the pale face, and the girl finally closed her eyes.
