Da da da-

Horses' hooves trod across the muddy ground, splashing a few bits of muddy water.

The road was not smooth, and even the carriage was swaying. The door of the carriage was slightly opened, and a group of men could be seen sitting inside, crowding the carriage.

Shen Dongqing moved a bit, trying to find a comfortable position to sit, when suddenly a hand came from the side and hugged him.

He turned his head and saw a smiling face, his eyes suddenly lit up: "Why are you here?"

In the previous world, before Shen Dongqing could say goodbye to Zhou Wenyan, he was forced to leave.

Didn't expect to meet again.

Zhou Wenyan raised his hand and opened the window on the wall of the car, and a cool breeze blew in with the drizzle and fell between the two of them.

Shen Dongqing took a breath of fresh air and said, "My points have all been deducted, and I have entered some punishment mode, and I am here in the blink of an eye."

Zhou Wenyan: "It doesn't matter, just a small problem."

He naturally also entered the punishment mode, was canceled the rest time, and was forced to enter a new copy.

As soon as the voice fell, a complaining voice came from the side: "It doesn't matter? The punishment mode is very difficult, and the mortality rate is 70%. You have been implicated. I knew I wouldn't come to see you so soon."

Shen Dongqing followed the voice and looked over, and saw a tall and thin young man with a pair of glasses sitting next to Zhou Wenyan.

Wu Jia noticed Shen Dongqing's gaze, pushed his glasses, and said, "Hello, I'm Wu Jia, the big brother's younger brother. I don't know what to call him?"

Zhou Wenyan turned sideways, blocking Wu Jia's figure, and said simply and rudely, "Don't pay attention to him."

Wu Jia: …

Don't be so quick

At this moment, a woodpecker ornament on the table suddenly made a bird call, attracting everyone's attention.

When everyone present looked over, the woodpecker's beak opened and closed, and it actually made a voice, the voice of a soft little girl.

[You have entered the B-level dungeon]

[Because the peers are in punishment mode, the difficulty of this instance is doubled, and the final evaluation is A-]

As soon as this sentence was finished, someone complained, "Why are you so unlucky?"

But the players in this instance have all played a few games, and no one complained, but stared at the woodpecker, wanting more clues.

[You are on your way to the Earl of Carlisle]

[Count Carlisle owns a vast territory, and there are countless farmers in the territory. The Earl of Carlisle was a benevolent lord. He paid no taxes and did not serve his refugees. He only demanded that six virgins be offered to him every year to spend seven days with him as a harvest sacrifice. It's just that no one ever came out of the earl's castle. Some people said that they were greedy for vanity and refused to leave...]

[Your identity is one of the six virgins]

[Kill the Earl of Carlisle or survive the Harvest Festival]

Shen Dongqing listened one after another, and when he heard a certain word, he suddenly regained his senses, straightened his waist and looked around at the people in the carriage.

"Six places..."

I saw in the carriage, from left to right: a muscular man with a full beard, a thin otaku in a plaid shirt, a middle-aged man with sparse hair, and Wu Jia, Zhou Wenyan, and Shen Dongqing himself.

"… Female?"

Zhou Wenyan touched his chin and said interestingly, "The count is quite good."

call-

The carriage stopped.

The coachman, who was completely wrapped up, opened the door.

Shen Dongqing got out of the car first.

The weather is not very good today, it has been raining lightly, a large cloud of dark clouds hangs over the castle, and there is not a trace of sunlight.

The players on the carriage walked down one after another.

After waiting for a long time, I heard a "creak", the gate of the castle opened, and a middle-aged woman in a maid costume walked out.

Her expression was serious, and the wrinkles around her eyes and forehead were meticulously displayed there.

"Six little..." Before she could finish her words, she saw six men standing in front of her. She was so shocked that she forgot the etiquette. come out.

She walked over vaguely: "I am the housekeeper of the count, please come with me, the room has been arranged. Please take a break and then attend the evening banquet."

The housekeeper led the group into the castle.

It's just that, unlike when she came, her footsteps were a little vain, and she obviously couldn't accept these six guests this year.

The six "virgins" who came to participate in the harvest festival were arranged in the guest rooms on the third floor of the castle. There were six rooms on this floor, exactly one for each person.

Shen Dongqing's room is in the center, with Wu Jia on the right and Zhou Wenyan on the left.

The style of the room is retro western.

It was probably prepared for female guests. There was an exquisite dresser and a one-person-high wardrobe in the room, bypassing the screen, and behind it was a double bed with a heavy bed curtain hanging from it.

Shen Dongqing walked over and found a gorgeous dress on the bed. He picked it up and shook it, and the decoration on it was clanging.

"Won't you wear it for me?" he muttered.

Shen Dongqing dropped her skirt with disgust on her face.

Just when he was about to look at the rest of the room, there was a sudden thud from the window.

Shen Dongqing opened the window and saw that a stone bullet rolled on the ground in a circle. When he looked up again, he saw Zhou Wenyan standing on the balcony of the next room, playing with a small stone between his fingers.

When Zhou Wenyan saw Shen Dongqing come out, he threw the small stone directly, propped himself on the balcony fence with one hand, and with a long leg, turned over and fell to the other side.

The movements were smooth and natural, and there was even time to push the corners of Shen Dongqing's lips.

Standard handsome pose.

Shen Dongqing was a little puzzled: "Why don't you walk in?"

Zhou Wenyan's smile stiffened.

There was a laugh from the other side.

Zhou Wenyan raised his eyes and swept over coldly.

Wu Jia suddenly stopped laughing and jumped over the fence.

Of course, he prefers his life, and it takes a little more effort to come over. He slowly climbs up the fence, and after holding it for a while, he jumps over. This is in stark contrast to Zhou Wenyan's actions before.

Suddenly, three adult men stood on the narrow balcony.

Shen Dongqing tilted his head: "Actually, I didn't lock the door."

Wu Jia: …

So what is he doing so hard to come here for

Zhou Wenyan hugged his shoulders and squinted at Wu Jia unhappily: "Why are you here?"

Wu Jia pushed his glasses: "Didn't you come over to discuss the countermeasures? I have to spend seven days here, and I don't know what dangers are in the castle, so I have to collect information."

Zhou Wenyan ignored Wu Jia's long list of words and replied with two words: "No."

Wu Jia puzzled: "Then what are you doing here?"

Zhou Wenyan's eyes floated, but he didn't speak.

Wu Jia put his hands together and said, "Boss, this is A-level difficulty. I don't want to overturn here."

Zhou Wenyan stared at him for a while, then suddenly said, "I think the younger brother should have some discernment."

Wu Jia: "?"

Zhou Wenyan: "For example, you'd better go back now."

Wu Jia's eyes lingered between the two for a while, and suddenly he understood, and nodded again and again: "Understood, understand." As soon as he climbed up on the fence with one leg, he withdrew it again.

"I'm going out." Wu Jiagan smiled and backed out, "I'm old and my waist isn't very good..."

Only Shen Dongqing and Zhou Wenyan were left on the balcony.

Being interrupted like this, Zhou Wenyan didn't know where to start, he coughed lightly: "Actually I think..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Wu Jia walking back.

Zhou Wenyan turned his head to look at him, his voice seemed to be squeezed out of his teeth: "What are you doing here again?"
