"Go out at this time?!" Ruan Bai was surprised, "Isn't there any danger?"

That female ghost has just left, and Gu San is going out

"Some experienced veteran players once summed up a game rule called 'danger limit'," Gu San said, "In order to give players breathing time and also to adjust the difficulty of the game, different levels of escape games encounter danger. The time intervals are different."

"For example, in this B-level world, if I encounter a crisis at this time, then for a certain period of time, I will be in a protected state and will no longer be in danger; while in the S-level difficulty world, the danger is every minute. It will happen, and the rest time needs to be earned by the players themselves."

After Ruan Bai finished listening, he suddenly understood.

At this time, the door can be easily pushed open.

They quietly left the house, went to the window where the woman was standing just now, and looked around.

And this look, found the problem.

On the eaves of every household in this village, there is a small wooden plaque with talismans written in cinnabar on it.

In the dark night, the mermaid village was surrounded by a dense black fog that almost turned into a solid body. Everything around it became blurred in the fog. Only the runes on the wooden signs were like blood-colored lamps. , very conspicuously lit up in the dark, swaying with the wind, reflecting the whole street a layer of light red.

And outside the window of the room where they lived, there should have been such a wooden sign with talismans, but someone cut the rope short and took away the wooden sign, leaving only a thin red rope under the eaves.

"What are these? Talismans that can protect people?" Ruan Bai looked around blankly, then looked at the string on his head, "We will be targeted because someone took away the wooden sign here ?”

It's just that these runes are all red. Not only does it not make people feel safe, but it looks very weird.

"It should be." Gu San looked at the end of the rope and touched it, his voice suddenly became colder, "Also, it is very likely that it was cut short in two days."

The cut of the rope was very new, not stained with dust, not like an old cut.

Ruan Bai also noticed this, his expression changed, and he immediately began to scan his surroundings.

She didn't know who this person was, but maybe he would leave some traces that she could find.

Soon, she found that there happened to be a footprint under her feet.

When the woman left just now, she took away the water in the house, but not the water outside. At this time, the ground outside the window became wet and soft, and the man's footprints were clearly left behind.

"The footprint is not big, it's about the same size as mine, it should be a woman's foot," Ruan Bai stretched out his foot for comparison, and said, "I think this may not be the footprint of the woman just now."

The woman just now seemed to hate normal people like them, and Ruan Bai guessed that the footprints should be left by others.

In this way, who is the person who cut the wooden sign and wanted to harm them

Is it a villager, or a player

Gu San listened to her words and didn't deny it.

"Go back," he said lightly, "Go to sleep first, and watch it tomorrow."

Ruan Bai thought for a while, and felt that these were the clues that could be found, so he nodded and followed Gu San back to the room.

However, the moment he entered the room, Ruan Bairuo felt something, and suddenly looked back at the house not far away.

I saw a pale, creepy human face looming against the window of the room.

It is watching them.

"What's wrong?" Gu San noticed Ruan Bai's hesitation and asked in the room.

Ruan Bai's fingers trembled slightly, and he was about to say something, but after the man's face cast a glance at her, he quickly disappeared.

She took a deep breath, finally swallowed the words, and entered the house.

Because she just finished the random task, she now has 1000 points in her hand.

After Ruan Bai was stared at by that face, he was worried that something would go wrong later, so he opened the mall and prepared to exchange for two life-saving props.

However, when she took a closer look, she saw a dazzling array of things inside, all of which were "Nurturing Pills", "Sweet and Poor Mask", "No matter how much you eat, you won't be weak and your constitution medicine" and the like.

Ruan Bai: "..."

Ruan Bai asked with difficulty: "...Well, Gu San, what are the items that can be exchanged for points in your system mall?"

Gu San's voice was still flat: "There are dolls that can die for you once, invisibility charms that can't be discovered by others, and mirrors that can spy on each other's truth... What's wrong with you?"

Seemingly aware of something wrong with Ruan Bai's face, Gu San paused and asked in the middle of speaking.

Ruan Bai: "..."

Ruan Bai: "No, nothing."

Is it too late for her to delete her account and start again

[This is all a choice of fate, host,] the system said sarcastic remarks, [God knows that your final destination should be beautiful, so it didn't give you those hypocritical and useless props.]Ruan Bai thought to himself that I don't know what my destination is, but I know your destination must be me!

If the system had an entity, she would have to beat it hard for three days and three nights!

Seeing that he couldn't change the props and was already a little tired, Ruan Bai went back to bed disappointed, closed his eyes and went to sleep.

A night without dreams.

On the second day, Ruan Bai was woken up by a scream.

It turned out that several player teams other than them had more or less encountered death situations, but some groups were killed by players, and some groups were killed by villagers.

There were originally 15 players, but after one night, there were only 12 left.

When Ruan Bai and the others rushed over, the spirits of the few newcomers seemed to be in a bad mood. It was one thing to know that this was a death escape game, but another to truly face death.

"We all fell asleep last night, and we don't know what happened." Qin Yu sighed and said, "Just now I woke him up, but he didn't move. I thought he was asleep..."

His teammate died last night, but he didn't show much emotion, probably because he was used to death.

The newcomer female high school student Wang Wenwen next to her had reddened eyes and a terrified expression. She had obviously just cried, while the female white-collar worker who had comforted Ruan Bai before was talking to her in a low voice.

"Woo... I want to go home... I don't want to stay here," Wang Wenwen said desperately while sobbing, "What did I do wrong, why did I have to suffer this?"

After hearing this, Ruan Bai may have been infected by the despair in her tone, and her mood has also deteriorated a lot.

Given the chance, who would want to be in this kind of game

On the first night of the B-level world, three people were eliminated. After three days, there were not even half of them left.

Such a death rate made Ruan Bai's heart sink slightly.

After Gu San passed by, he gave Ruan Bai a wink.

Ruan Bai understood, and sneaked out to take a look at the two houses quietly while other people didn't notice him.

As she expected, the wooden signs hanging outside these houses were also cut.

This doesn't seem like an accident, someone should be deliberately targeting their group of players.

After confirming the news, Ruan Bai went back.

At this time, other people gathered in the room where Qin Yu and the others lived last night, watching the dead player's body.

She stood outside and took a look, only to see the corpse lying on the bed, looking as if it was asleep. However, his lower body was cut off by something, and both legs disappeared out of thin air, leaving only bloody wounds, shocking.

Even though he was prepared in his heart, Ruan Bai was subconsciously startled when he saw the corpse, and his face paled a lot.

Seeing Ruan Bai came back, Gu San found an excuse and came out.

Ruan Bai followed and told him what he had just discovered in a low voice.

"As expected," Gu San was not surprised at all, he took a deep look at the players in the room, and said, "Go, go talk elsewhere."

Ruan Bai knew that he suspected that there were ghosts among those players. To be honest, she also felt the same way. After all, several groups of dead were villagers. If NPCs planned to attack them, there would be more chances. There is no need to deceive their own people like this. .

Just, why would the player do this

Shouldn't their purpose be to survive these few days

Perhaps seeing Ruan Bai's confusion, Gu San explained: "It's normal for a player to have an insider. When you entered the game, did you see the task assigned by the system?"

Ruan Bai nodded: "Yes, my mission goal is to survive three days and find out the secret of the mermaid village."

It was also when she saw that line of red letters that she realized something was wrong.

"That's right," Gu San said lazily, "Each player has their own mission, your mission and mine are both this, but there are also players whose mission is not this."

"Some players' missions are specifically for other players... If I'm not wrong, there is at least one of these players. Her mission is to get rid of other players as much as possible without exposing herself. "

In this game, there is such a situation of cannibalism

Hearing this, Ruan Bai was stunned for a moment, and looked up, only to see Gu San standing opposite her, looking at the group of players thoughtfully.

He was wearing a hat, and looked at them with a pair of deep black eyes motionless, like a hidden black snake, quietly watching its prey.

Who is he suspecting

"Let's put aside the matter of catching the inner ghost. What we need to do now is to find out the secrets of the village."

After speaking, Gu San suddenly looked back at Ruan Bai.

"Aren't you afraid of corpses?" he asked.

When Ruan Bai faced the corpse, he didn't react much except his face turned pale.

Ruan Bai shook his head.

afraid? Of course she would be afraid, falling into the death escape game, who would not be afraid

But she understood very early on that it was useless to be afraid.

It's only been less than a day now, and there will be many deaths waiting for her. Even if Gu San is her teammate, she can't pin all her hopes on him.

If she is timid, it will be even more difficult for her to survive in the future.

She had to overcome her fear and take the initiative to face and adapt to the existence of death.

Seeing this, Gu San glanced at her with great interest.

"Yes, it seems that you have your own opinion," he raised his chin and said casually, "Well, this time it's up to you to decide what we will do next."

Ruan Bai heard the words and replied without hesitation: "Go to the Taoist temple."

She had a hunch that there would be secrets and discoveries in the Taoist temple where the mermaid grandmother was enshrined.
