Tang Ning suspected that he was dreaming.
I reached out and pinched my face. It really hurt.
What are you doing? the voice asked.
Tangning asked in bewilderment, "Are you just going to give your body back to me?"
It's like a princess who was captured by a dragon and taken to a cave. She was waiting for the prince to rescue her, but the dragon took her back just because she couldn't sleep well.
If you don't want it, you can give it to me again.
"I want it." Tangning said quickly, fearing that if she spoke a little slower, the other party would regret it.
The voice chuckled and asked, "Why are you being so honest?"
Two eye-catching red marks appeared on Tangning's cheeks from where she pinched herself.
He stretched out his finger so that Tang Ning could not see it, and placed his fingertips on the fingerprint, overlapping it perfectly.
Tang Ning felt a cool sensation on his face, which was just enough to suppress the pain from pinching himself.
"When he had been controlling Tang Ning's body before, she was lying flat on the bed with her legs crossed on her stomach. But now it was Tang Ning's turn to control her body. After lying flat for a while, she couldn't help but turn over to the side. Her long black hair fell on her shoulders, making her neck feel uncomfortable.
Tang Ning closed her eyes and casually stroked her beautiful long hair. She touched the back of her head and stroked it from back to front, pushing aside the flowing hair, and then unconsciously curled it up again.
The pillow was soft, the quilt was soft, and the bed was soft. Tang Ning felt like he was lying on a cloud, sniffing the subtle fragrance floating in the air. He closed his eyes and soon fell asleep.
This speed of falling asleep is comparable to that of Stey.
A hand lifted Tang Ning's long hair and gently passed through her hair, combing her messy black hair.
…
After waking up from a nap, Tang Ning curled up in the warm and soft bed in a daze, half closing his eyes, almost forgetting that he was still playing the game.
woke up
This voice suddenly rang in my mind.
Tangning blinked, and the memories of last night began to come back.
Didn't you find your stomach a little uncomfortable? "" asked.
Tang Ning was still immersed in the bizarre experience of last night and had no idea what was happening. After hearing what "" said, Tang Ning felt his stomach tighten. He probably felt that his stomach was numb from being hungry all night.
Get out of bed and eat.
The simple command to eat made Tang Ning sit up immediately. He had worn the robe to sleep last night, and when he got up, he found that the robe was not wrinkled at all.
After washing up, Tangning walked out of the room.
The restaurant was on the second floor. I walked a few steps and heard faint noises coming from the restaurant. It seemed like people were talking and they were arguing fiercely.
"The words of the polluted Tang Ning are really unbelievable. In order to get rid of me, they used the polluted Li Haoyuan to drag me into the dirty water. Amitabha."
"If the polluter is completely different from the original body, how could Tangning become so powerful after being polluted? Even more powerful than the polluted Li Haoyuan? Could it be that Tangning's true strength is even weaker than that of a newcomer?"
"What does Donor Jiang mean? Could it be that Donor Jiang has also been contaminated and is therefore speaking for his own kind?"
"Jiang Mianmian is not contaminated. My card can protect one from contamination."
"… "
The dispute ended when Tang Ning showed up.
Unlike her teammates who all looked a little haggard, Tang Ning was the only player with a rosy complexion and a bright look.
The six players in the restaurant looked at Tangning, all with the same look of shock on their faces, as if they had seen a ghost.
Even Jiang Mianmian, who had initially argued for Tangning's innocence, was stunned. Her face turned pale at this moment.
Tang Ning saw fear in Jiang Mianmian's only remaining eye.
Jiang Mianmian is scared
No, Jiang Mianmian should be afraid of last night's "". Last night, not only Tang Ning sensed the murderous intent from "", but Jiang Mianmian, who faced "", also sensed it and was left with a deep psychological trauma.
It was not just Jiang Mianmian. When " " walked through this corridor last night, the players in the rooms on both sides also vaguely felt the terrifying aura.
Tang Ning shifted his gaze away from Jiang Mianmian's face and looked at the monk who had just spoken ill of him.
The other person's shiny bald head seemed to be brighter, and I don't know if it was because of the faint light reflected by the thin layer of sweat that had just appeared.
Tang Ning looked at Si Tai again and found that the look in Si Tai's eyes had also changed subtly. If the previous Si Tai had grown up in a loving father-son relationship and was a child who laughed and joked with his father, then now... it was like the look of a filial son who had been beaten.
It was as if Tangning had been beaten up.
Tang Ning looked at Lin Yun and Zhou Kang again. These two always liked to stare at her, not hiding their admiration and love for her looks. Even though they didn't openly pursue Tang Ning, their attitude towards her was still that of a pursuer.
But now, when their eyes met, it was us who avoided the gaze, as if we had suddenly become the ones being pursued.
This feels strange.
Yesterday, Jiang Mianmian told Tangning that she thought Tangning was the most important player in this dungeon. At that time, Tangning actually did not quite agree with this view.
And now, Tang Ning felt the presence of the being very intuitively.
"…Good morning?" Tangning hesitated for a moment before greeting everyone.
No one said anything. They just watched Tang Ning's every move. The atmosphere was very awkward for a while.
Tang Ning took a step forward, and the tense and oppressive atmosphere in the air seemed to become thicker. Tang Ning took another step forward, and the thick sense of uneasiness seemed to condense into water droplets.
Tangning also felt nervous.
Although not very smart, I know that what I do next will affect my teammates' attitude towards me.
If you perform poorly, your teammates will consider you a polluted person and banish you from the castle at night.
And now in the entire team, the only people who clearly stood up to support seem to be Jiang Mianmian and Si Tai, and these two people also acted afraid.
what to do
Tangning's mind was in a mess. She realized that the current situation was more complicated and difficult to handle than yesterday because...
Tang Ning also felt that he was the one who was polluted.
When Tang Ning was at a loss, the voice that liked to give advice remained unexpectedly quiet, as if it was deliberately observing Tang Ning's embarrassment.
Tang Ning could sense that "" didn't like his teammates, and he was afraid that the current situation was what "" wanted to see happen. Tang Ning thought about what "" said last night that there was no rush to go outside the castle, and now it seemed that there was indeed no rush. He would probably be exiled by his teammates tonight.
Tsk. Tangning heard the other party's voice which had some meaning.
"… Good morning." It was Jiang Mianmian who finally broke the strange silence, and she also greeted Tangning one after another.
Tangning awkwardly found the same seat as yesterday and sat down. She saw that there were no plates or dishes on the table.
"The housekeeper said the food will be ready soon." Si Tai observed from the side: "Let's wait here for a while."
Tangning tried to act as natural as usual and looked at Jiang Mianmian, "Did you go out to explore anything last night?"
Everyone looked at Jiang Mianmian, and also took the opportunity to look at Tang Ning.
"I did discover something." Jiang Mianmian recalled, "There are eight spires in this ancient castle. When I went out last night, I saw something I didn't see during the day..."
"There are six mummified ghosts hanging on the eight spires." Jiang Mianmian's tone was a little frightened. She whispered, "No, those six mummies seem to have fallen into a deep sleep and are motionless."
There are six mummies hanging on the top of the tower
Tang Ning was stunned for a moment.
When I came to this castle in the afternoon of the first day, I looked up at the castle. Although it was just a quick glance at that time, Tang Ning always felt that there were more than six mummies hanging on it.
"Eight spires, six monsters." Zhou Kang frowned: "Why only six? Why aren't there monsters hanging on the other two spires?"
"There are exactly eight of us this time." Lin Yunruo thought.
"Sleeping monsters..." Christine said, "That's impossible. There were originally eight monsters hanging on the eight spires, but only two of them woke up?"
Xu Dao couldn't help but look at Tang Ning.
According to Christine's speculation, if the monsters on the top of the tower could contaminate the players, then one of the other two awakened monsters contaminated Li Haoyuan, and the other contaminated Tang Ning.
Even Tang Ning's heart skipped a beat.
Is "" the one who was hung on the top of the tower
"In addition to the six monsters hanging on the spire, I encountered a seventh monster last night. This monster gave me the same feeling as the other six monsters on the spire. I guess it might have been hung there before." Jiang Mianmian said: "That monster was hiding in the corridor. I fought it head-on and almost died."
"Is that so..." Zhou Kang asked, "I heard gunshots outside the castle last night. What happened?"
"A strange dark creature attacked me. It looked like an undead, with skeletons and ghost lights burning in its eye sockets. It was very fast. I shot and hit one of its feet, barely weakening its speed. When I came back, I ran into the monster crouching in the corridor."
A dark horse-like creature
For some reason, Tang Ning subconsciously thought of the unicorn.
"If that's the case, where did the last monster go?" Lin Yun asked, "Did it attach itself to Li Haoyuan and was exiled by us?"
Or in other words…
The monk turned the beads in his mouth and said, "It's not possible that we exiled the wrong person. The real polluted person is still sitting at the table."
Jiang Mianmian looked at Tang Ning.
The other players also turned their attention to Tang Ning. They needed an explanation from Tang Ning. If what Jiang Mianmian said was true and everyone's speculation was correct, then Tang Ning and Li Haoyuan were the most suspicious. One of them must be the contaminated one.
Tangning was feeling very uneasy. Just when she was about to say something, she heard footsteps outside the restaurant.
Has the butler prepared the meal
"Good morning." A familiar voice came.
Tang Ning's pupils constricted and she turned around in disbelief to see Li Haoyuan's smiling face greeting her.
The person who was exiled yesterday is back!
