Unfortunately, in the end Shen Dongqing never learned how to be afraid.
It's just that Wu Jia is not willing to teach him.
Shen Dongqing looked at Zhou Wenyan eagerly and said, "Do you know what it's like to be afraid?"
Shen Dongqing still cherishes this opportunity to become a human being, and has been learning how to be a human being.
If he could learn about the emotions of "human nature", he would gladly do so.
Zhou Wenyan: "Well... I won't either."
What is fear
Only the ghosts are afraid.
Hearing this answer, Shen Dongqing's mood was a little depressed.
Zhou Wenyan looked at the culprit like a knife.
Wu Jia patted his cheek: let you talk more!
He held the knife light and said, "Why don't you observe later... those players and ghosts?"
Shen Dongqing also made sense.
To learn to be a person, start by observing people.
He silently began to develop an observation plan.
The three returned to their accommodation.
The other players were all sitting in the lobby on the first floor, looking like they had nothing.
They are all old players, so they were extra vigilant. They only searched all the rooms on the first day, and did not go out rashly. In the past, it was this vigilance that saved their lives, but it was also this vigilance that limited their thinking.
The three people who went out for a walk received everyone's attention.
Facing the prying and scrutinizing eyes, Zhou Wenyan stood still and sat on the empty sofa.
Shen Dongqing followed him and sat down.
Wu Jia took a look and decided to stay away from these two people. He found his roommate in the crowd and sat down.
Wu Jia lowered her voice and asked, "Have you found Lu Xiaozhen?"
Players who survived the last round must know something, at least they can figure out the rules of this plague city.
The roommate shook his head, a little frustrated: "No one was found."
Wu Jia: "Huh?"
According to what the roommate said, a group of them went to Lu Xiaozhen in a group, and they were still thinking about how to coerce and lure them if they didn't cooperate. When I reached the door of 204, I knocked on the door politely. The door was locked and there was no response from inside.
After waiting patiently for a while, there was still no movement, and they broke into the door directly.
But there was no one in the room, only…
The roommate also sold the pass.
Wu Jia really showed a curious look: "Only what?"
The roommate slapped his thigh: "A deer ran out of it, you know? It's the kind of deer, good guy, that startled us all."
Wu Jia joked, "Could it be that Lu Xiaozhen turned into a deer and ran away?"
The roommate laughed twice and said, "Maybe."
The two ended their brief conversation, and a man who looked like a big boss with sunglasses stood up.
The man in sunglasses coughed and said, "Since everyone has arrived, why don't we talk about how to clear customs?"
He first showed his customs clearance experience.
A total of seven C-level dungeons, five B-level dungeons and one A-level dungeon were cleared.
After lighting up, the eyes of other players looking at him immediately changed.
The man in sunglasses was somewhat satisfied with their response, but when he saw Zhou Wenyan and Shen Dongqing sitting there, he was a little uncomfortable.
Without him, these two acted so blandly, as if they didn't hear him at all.
"Although the game doesn't specify what level of dungeon Plague City is, I think it is at least A-level." The man in sunglasses smiled at the others, "I'm still more experienced, it's better if we go together, the number of people can be reduced. some danger."
Other players are a little excited.
Although they are all old players, this "old" is also full of moisture. I am afraid that some people have never even seen A-level dungeons. If there is a man with sunglasses, it can be less dangerous.
Of course, the man in sunglasses is not for charity.
He was looking for these players to form a group, just to find someone to share the danger. After all, you don't have to run too fast in front of ghosts, as long as you can outrun your teammates.
Both sides have their own thoughts, but their faces are happy.
The man in sunglasses accepted a group of younger brothers, and then turned his attention to Zhou Wenyan. He pushed on his sunglasses and said with a smile, "Brother, do you want to be together?"
Zhou Wenyan leaned on the sofa with half-closed eyes and did not answer.
On the other hand, Shen Dongqing asked curiously, "Is the A-level copy very powerful?"
Zhou Wenyan said lazily, "Generally speaking, it's quite boring."
Zhou Wenyan's statement is true, but falling into the ears of others is equivalent to pretending to be coercive.
Especially the man with sunglasses, most of his face is covered by sunglasses, but he can still see that his face has changed and changed.
"You are so powerful, why don't you take us through the customs." The man in sunglasses said strangely.
Zhou Wenyan glanced at him lightly and asked, "Who are you?"
There was a sudden burst of laughter from the crowd.
The man in sunglasses looked over.
Wu Jia raised his hand: "I'm sorry, I couldn't hold back, I really couldn't hold back."
The gangster atmosphere that the man with sunglasses finally created, was so disturbed that it all disappeared.
The other players looked at him hesitantly.
The man in sunglasses sank his face and said, "I have already obtained some clues. Those who are unwilling to form a team should not listen."
Brightly pointed to Zhou Wenyan.
Zhou Wenyan's legs overlapped, and he didn't move, "No hurry."
The man in sunglasses sneered: "Thinking about rubbing clues?"
"It's about time for dinner." Zhou Wenyan glanced at the clock hanging on the wall, "Anyway, you're talking nonsense, so don't worry about waiting."
The man in sunglasses thinks he has deep thoughts, but why is he always angry
He took a deep breath, sat down slowly, and gritted his teeth: "No hurry, no hurry."
clang-
The bell rang, and the aroma of food came out from the cafeteria, as if it appeared out of thin air.
Shen Dongqing stood up first and walked to the cafeteria impatiently: "I'm hungry."
After the three people who were in the way were gone, Sunglasses said, "I got a clue that the plague was caused by black cats. Let's go to the city tomorrow to see if we can find the black cats."
"Also, it's best not to eat the food here. After all, the name of this city is 'Plague City', and the plague is contagious."
Wu Jia kept his mind and hid behind the door and listened before entering the cafeteria.
Shen Dongqing and Zhou Wenyan had already eaten.
The cafeteria has prepared food for about ten people, sweet and soft bread, sausages baked until crispy, steaks with sauces... The whole table is full of piles.
Wu Jia: "You just ate it, aren't you afraid of poison?"
Zhou Wenyan took a sip of red wine: "Poison can't kill people."
Shen Dongqing buried his head and ate, looked up at Wu Jia in the gap, and asked, "Aren't you hungry?"
Wu Jia: "No..." A grunt from his abdomen interrupted him.
Wu Jia smiled awkwardly, sat down, picked up a piece of bread and took a big bite.
While eating, he said, "The clue found by the sunglasses is the black cat. As we know, could this be the key?"
Zhou Wenyan asked back, "Are you as stupid as him?"
Wu Jia shut up.
Zhou Wenyan put down the wine glass: "Think about it with your feet, the clues given by the game for free, when is it not a scam?"
Wu Jia lowered his head deeply.
Zhou Wenyan threw a piece of bread at him and said, "Eat yours."
Wu Jia raised his hand to catch the bread, stopped talking, and ate hard.
Until the meal time was over, there were only the three of them in the restaurant, and no other players came over.
Shen Dongqing touched his belly and sighed, "It's still delicious from the earl's cook."
Zhou Wenyan coaxed: "When this dungeon is over, you can find an earl's token and go back and brush it again."
Shen Dongqing's eyes lit up: "Really?"
Zhou Wenyan said, "Really."
A dimple appeared on Shen Dongqing's face: "It will take two more days to play."
Wu Jia thought to himself: Did you really use the game as a copy? One time is not enough, a second time? The count was about to cry.
Maybe because she was too full, Shen Dongqing felt dazed as soon as she touched the pillow.
Zhou Wenyan patted him on the back and whispered, "Go to sleep."
Shen Dongqing closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Zhou Wenyan was lying on the side looking at his profile.
The orange light shone down, fell on Shen Dongqing's fair face, and flowed into the curled eyelashes.
Zhou Wenyan seemed to be bewildered, he touched his cheek lightly, and after hearing a murmur, he paused and retracted it.
pat—
Zhou Wenyan turned off the light and lay down.
The double bed is big enough for two adult men.
But the two still snuggled closely together. Zhou Wenyan listened to the shallow breathing in his ear, and for some reason, he felt that this picture was very familiar, as if it had been repeated countless times in the past.
Thinking of this, he closed his eyes too.
Zhou Wenyan's vigilance is very strong, even if he sleeps, he is asleep and can wake up at any time.
It's just that tonight, he slept very deeply.
In his sleep, Zhou Wenyan moved a little and put his hand on Shen Dongqing's back.
With this action, the flower of hope that had been stuffed in his pocket came out and just landed on the back of Shen Dongqing's hand.
It can be seen that even if it is randomly stuffed in the pocket, the flower of hope is still in full bloom.
Twelve o'clock at night.
This is the darkest time of night.
There was a loud noise outside the window.
Distinguish carefully, it seems that someone is wandering outside, and the footsteps are staggering. In addition, there was a howl, not like a human can make it.
Shen Dongqing also heard it.
He wanted to wake up to see what was going on, but a burst of floral fragrance wafted, tiredness surged again, and he fell asleep again without any precaution.
When it was dawn, Shen Dongqing sat up in a daze.
When he opened his eyes, he felt something was wrong.
Why is there something covering it
Shen Dongqing raised his hand and touched it, but he didn't touch the hair, but a furry thing.
wait wait wait!
He woke up instantly and jumped out of bed to look in the mirror.
The figure in the mirror is clear.
You can see a pair of furry... ears on top of the head
It's a rabbit.
A pair of ears hang down on the sides, the outside is white and fluffy, and the inside is light pink, which is quite cute.
Shen Dongqing rubbed himself twice, suddenly thought of something, and rushed out of the toilet.
Zhou Wenyan woke up a long time ago. He was half lying on the bed with his legs bent, and his voice was a little hoarse when he woke up in the morning: "What's wrong?"
Shen Dongqing pounced directly.
"so cute-"
Shen Dongqing pinched Zhou Wenyan's ear.
Zhou Wenyan didn't look like rabbit ears, it looked like cat ears, sticking up there, with a pinch of black on the white fur.
Shen Dongqing said in a surprised tone: "We have grown ears!"
Zhou Wenyan was silent for a while, then turned his face to the side, coughed lightly, and said, "You go down first."
In the early morning, they are all adults, and it is this kind of action that makes them more impulsive.
Seeing his serious tone, Shen Dongqing rubbed his ears reluctantly before crawling down.
Zhou Wenyan paused for a while, then raised his hand and touched the ear above his head.
Fluffy and warm, not fake.
Is this the plague
The three sat down around the coffee table.
Wu Jia looked at Shen Dongqing and Zhou Wenyan with the eyes that were like discovering a new world.
In the end he came to a conclusion: "It's quite cute." He lowered his voice, "I really want to touch it."
Shen Dongqing agrees: "Mmmm."
As soon as the words fell, Wu Jia received a cold glance from Zhou Wenyan.
He immediately changed his expression of righteous indignation, clenched his fists and said, "What kind of plague is this! We must eradicate the plague!"
Shen Dongqing's two lop-eared bunny ears swayed: "I think it's very cute, do you have to eliminate it?"
Wu Jia is firm: "Of course!"
But he was thinking in his heart: It's really great to see Zhou Wenyan embarrassing, let me take a look and then talk about it!
Of course, he wouldn't say such dangerous words.
Zhou Wenyan put his hands on his shoulders and said unhappily, "Why don't you?"
Only he and Shen Dongqing grew ears.
Wu Jia touched the top of his head where only hair existed, and guessed, "Did you touch something that I didn't touch?"
Shen Dongqing tried hard to recall: "Black cat?"
Wu Jia murmured, "Could it be true that what the priest said?"
Zhou Wenyan stood up, grabbed the flower of hope in the vase, and stuffed it into Wu Jia's hand.
Wu Jia was holding a flower in his arms and froze there: "What do you mean?"
Zhou Wenyan said: "Be a test."
Shen Dongqing tilted his head, and the two rabbit ears swayed: "What test?"
Zhou Wenyan spit out four words: "Control variables."
The three of them went out yesterday.
He and Shen Dongqing touched the black cat and then the flower of hope. When they woke up, they had animal ears. Not sure if it was the black cat or the flower of hope.
And Wu Jia didn't touch the two, so he could be used as a test product. If he doesn't have long ears tomorrow, it can be determined that it was caused by a black cat.
Wu Jia understood what he said and cried and said, "I don't want to grow ears."
Zhou Wenyan sneered: "Isn't it cute?"
Turning around, he saw Shen Dongqing staring straight at the ears on his head, and immediately changed his face: "Do you want to touch?"
Shen Dongqing: "Yes!"
Wu Jia huddled in the corner with hope, and finally understood what it means to commit suicide and not live.
Because of the need to control variables, Wu Jia was arranged to stay in the room without touching any people or animals.
Instead, Shen Dongqing and Zhou Wenyan went out. Anyway, they were already infected, and they were not worried about their debts, so they were going to look for clues elsewhere.
As soon as they went out, they bumped into the man in sunglasses.
Because he didn't hide it deliberately, the man in sunglasses saw the animal ears on their heads at a glance.
The man with sunglasses was quick-witted, and before he came to him, he quickly ducked to the side.
Zhou Wenyan didn't care about such a small person, and walked directly with Shen Dongqing.
The man in sunglasses pushed his sunglasses and stared at the extra ears on top of the two of them, wondering what he was thinking.
Shen Dongqing and Zhou Wenyan came to the place where they met the black cat yesterday.
I bumped into several waves of players on the way.
It looks like they are looking for black cats too.
Maybe the black cat knows that many people are looking for it, and it doesn't know where to hide, and it can't even find a cat's hair.
The two of them were not in a hurry and strolled around the city slowly.
When he was passing by the door of the church, he happened to see the man in sunglasses walking out of it. The priest was following him, and the two seemed to be talking about something.
The priest also handed him a flower of hope, and said sincerely: "May God bless you and me, and the flower of hope can be free from disease and gain new life."
The man in sunglasses took the flower of hope and replied, "May God bless you and me."
He looked down at the Hope Flower in his hand, because he was wearing sunglasses, so he couldn't see the expression on his face.
Zhou Wenyan glanced at it from a distance, then withdrew his gaze.
The two did not find the black cat in the end.
Zhou Wenyan thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to the hospital to see."
The newspaper he found in the room said that when the plague first broke out, most people were admitted to the hospital, so the hospital may have some clues left behind.
The Plague City is not big. According to the road signs, it took less than an hour to find the place where the hospital is.
Compared with other brightly colored small houses, the plain white hospital looks a bit drab and dilapidated.
As soon as he stepped into the hospital, Shen Dongqing suddenly let out a "huh": "The scent here is much lighter."
Because it has always been in a floral environment, most people can't detect the intensity.
Now, after a reminder, Zhou Wenyan only reacted.
He raised his hand and pinched his nose: "Go in and have a look."
The hospital was empty, and there was still no one there.
Along the way, you can see medical equipment scattered all over the place, as if after a great escape. There was nothing in the ward, whether it was a living person, a corpse, or an animal.
Empty like a dead city.
It's the same on two floors.
Shen Dongqing has changed from being excited at the beginning to being bored.
He followed Zhou Wenyan's back and thought: "Why don't we go back, I want to touch your ears..."
Zhou Wenyan stopped: "Huh?"
Shen Dongqing raised her head and handed herself over: "You touch me too."
Of course Zhou Wenyan would not refuse such an invitation, he stretched out his hand and kneaded the soft and long bunny ears.
"Why a rabbit?" he said suddenly.
How could little holly be like a rabbit? Except for appearance.
Shen Dongqing thought for a while and said, "Maybe it's because Tutu is delicious."
After Zhou Wenyan had felt enough, he said, "Then go back, don't look for it anymore."
Zhou Wenyan was so active because the answer to the plague city made him curious, but now that Shen Dongqing doesn't want to look for it, that's fine.
Anyway, it's a big deal to arrest the priest and ask kindly the ins and outs.
Just as he was about to turn around and go back, Shen Dongqing suddenly saw a dark shadow in the corner flash past: "It's a black cat!"
The black cat stuck its head out, and a pair of emerald green eyes looked at the two of them.
It recognized Shen Dongqing, and after hesitating for a while, it came out of the corner, and it made a reserved "meow", as if allowing Shen Dongqing to touch it.
Shen Dongqing waved his hand: "No, I have a cat."
Saying that, he pointed to Zhou Wenyan beside him.
Zhou Wenyan raised his chin with satisfaction.
The black cat seemed to have been hit, turned around and left, looking a little lonely from the back.
Shen Dongqing thought about it later: "Aren't we looking for a black cat?"
Zhou Wenyan held back his smile: "Well, follow along and have a look."
The black cat seemed to be taking them to a place intentionally, not walking fast, and would stop and wait for a while when turning a corner.
The two of them walked down together, all the way down to the second floor.
So far, all the floral scents are gone.
Shen Dongqing glanced at it and was shocked: "Your ears are gone!"
Zhou Wenyan thought that the real ears were gone, and he touched it subconsciously, only to realize that he was talking about the animal ears on the top of his head.
Shen Dongqing was shocked: "I haven't touched enough..."
It looks worse than encountering terrifying ghosts.
Zhou Wenyan comforted: "There will be more after going out, it's alright."
The black cat looked at the two of them coldly.
What happened to these two people
Why are you not busy looking for clues to decipher, and come here to abuse cats? This is the most unprofessional player it has ever seen!
