Dual personality

Xu Wang had prepared countless ways to reject Chi Yingxue, cynicism, truth-seeking, scolding, false and condescending, but none of them had time to act, so he was blinded by this fantastic reason.

The key is that Chi Yingxue doesn't even mean to joke at all, her brows are serious, and her eyes are as clear as water.

"This wave of dumping is too awesome..." Qian Ai put aside all personal grievances, and sincerely wanted to give the other party a compliment. It's not enough just to have a brain hole, you have to have acting skills.

Chi Yingxue ignored him and only looked at Xu Wang.

Looking at each other for a long while, Xu Wang chose to be cautious: "We can't trust you."

Chi Yingxue restrained all his emotions and calmed his eyes: "No one can see through whom right away, or you won't be adding more members today."

Xu Wang's eyes sank: "Are you monitoring us?"

"If you have to use this word, you can say that I am monitoring the audience," Chi Yingxue admitted generously. "I want to find a team that has saved files and wants to make substitutions, and it just so happens that you fit in."

So this person didn't join any team yesterday, just to wait for today

Xu Wang: "Why?"

"The team that can find the save point will not be weak. If you want to change people, it means that you have the same strict requirements for teammates." Chi Yingxue said, "I like teams with high standards and strict requirements."

Xu Wang silently turned his head to look at the three friends.

Wu Sheng talked about the matter: "The pursuit of efficiency is an advantage," and then quickly embraced his heart, "I don't judge personality."

Qian Ai looked happy and regrettable: "Unfortunately, we are very inconsistent with his pursuit."

Kuang Jinxin asked the captain's permission with his eyes, then looked at Chi Yingxue and shared the truth: "He quit the team when he met his idol."

"Idol?" Chi Yingxue frowned, obviously a little unfamiliar with this word.

For the fan circle, you have to find old money: "Idol, life, true love."

Kuang Jinxin nodded vigorously: "If you like that kind of strict team, we can't do it."

Chi Yingxue raised her eyebrows slightly, willing to hear the details.

Kuang Jinxin said word by word, serious and serious: "We are a happy breakthrough team."

"..." Chi Yingxue's expression now is the same as the expression of the four friends when they first heard the dual personality.

At this point, the demands of both parties are very clear.

"We don't know when the King of Hell will come out, if he really exists," Xu Wang symbolically took a small step back, his attitude already clear, "We don't want to take risks either."

If you don't believe Chi Yingxue's words, you don't need to talk about it, but even if you believe it, it's still a ticking time bomb.

Chi Yingxue looked at the four of them for a long time, and then said again: "I don't like my body being occupied by others, so I have been looking for a way to prevent the King of Hell from coming out."

The word he used was "others", and Xu Wang looked into his eyes without any unnatural emotion.

He really regarded "Yam King" as an independent person, not the other half himself.

"If I say, now this method has been found," Chi Yingxue's voice drew Xu Wang's attention back, "Will you believe me once?"

It's not a request, it's a very equal inquiry.

Xu Wang found that Chi Yingxue had never shaken his goal from beginning to end.

Even after being questioned and rejected, there was more firmness in his stillness, just like the green pines on the top of the mountain, ignoring the wind and snow, I stood on my own.

The same person, completely different character, if this is fake, Xu Wang would like to award him a best actor by himself.

"Give us three minutes."

Putting this sentence aside, Captain Xu pulled his little friend to a corner where he could speak ill of people behind his back.

"One will definitely cost money, and the other might kill you," Xu Wang put out the only two paths he had, brainstorming ideas, "What do you think?"

"How about a day off?" Qian Ai jumped out of his thinking and gave Xintiandi, "Maybe there will be a bunch of good men tomorrow, we can choose..."

Uh, Qian Ai stroked his chin in confusion, why did he always feel that this was strange.

"Any new recruits are at risk of being scammed. A single unfamiliar personality is not necessarily safer than a double personality who has dealt with each other," Wu Sheng glanced at Chi Yingxue, who was still waiting in place not far away , "his ability and the attitude he's showing at the moment,"

Xu Wang was surprised: "Do you want to add him?"

Wu Sheng sighed and looked at Xu Wang: "You want to add him."

Otherwise, there is no need for a three-second discussion.

"If you want to vote for it, I'll follow, but if he hurts you again..." Wu Sheng paused for a second, "Or any of us, just kick it without discussion."

Xu Wang knew that Wu Sheng was someone who cared about his friends, but he rarely saw such a straightforward expression.

A throbbing passed from the bottom of my heart, a little warm and a little happy.

"Row."

Qian Ai didn't know if it was because he was over-hearted, but he always felt that Wu Junshi's sentence "or any of us" seemed like a courtesy addition.

But in any case, he has to express his position: "I vote against it."

Two votes in favor and one vote against.

The three partners watched Jin Xin together.

"To be honest, I'm really curious about him..." Kuang looked at Qian Ai's increasingly dark face and swallowed, "Uh, I abstain."

Qian Ai gritted his teeth: "don't think about me."

Kuang Jinxin shook his head seriously: "I abstained, but I still want to add him. Since the result remains the same, why did I deliberately make you more angry?"

Qian Ai: "… "

That kind of confession makes me angry, doesn't it? ! !

"Okay, then it's settled," Xu Wang clapped his hands, "He is responsible for efficiency, and we are responsible for happiness."

When he clicked to accept the invitation to add members, Chi Yingxue didn't know that his division of labor had been unilaterally clarified.

"You are not going to ask, what method did I think of to prevent the appearance of the King of Hell?" He thought this was the most important level before joining the team.

"If this method does not require our intervention, then there is no need to talk about it," Xu Wang looked at him and said it very clearly, "One, we can't tell the truth from the fake, and two, it's your privacy, you don't need to report it. We just want a steady state result."

"Ding-"

: Chi Yingxue joins the team.

"Ding-"

: You have a 5-minute exemption, choose [Back] or [Kick], and the countdown starts.

Except for Qian Ai who struggled for the last chance for two seconds, the other four didn't care.

Going back on the countdown does not affect the quest line. After a few seconds, the five people will automatically return to the save point, 1310.

Before the field of vision is clear, the sound comes into the ear first—

"Damn, they're here!"

Xu Wang was sure that it was Li Zijin's voice.

Just this tone... Take them for Voldemort! ! !

"Li Xia, pull her to the corridor—"

The first sight Xu Wang saw was that Li Xia frantically led the faceless woman in white to the corridor according to his captain's instructions.

A big hole had been cut in the wall, and Wei Menghan and the others were not seen, but the voices from the depths of the secret passage could still be vaguely heard—

"Leizi, climb faster... I hear them..."

Wu Sheng, Qian Ai, and Kuang Jinxin stood there, looking at the ceiling, looking at the wall, and pretending they didn't understand anything.

Chi Yingxue didn't move, but raised her eyebrows slightly when she saw the Han Buting team.

Xu Wang quickly explained to his new teammates: "Our word of mouth... is a little complicated."

Unexpectedly, Chi Yingxue smiled helplessly: "My reputation is not very good."

"Chi Yingxue?!" Li Zijin was at the rear of the team. Seeing that one foot had already gone out, he suddenly felt that the sound was not right, turned his head and widened his eyes.

Han Buting and Li Xiajing left the arena quickly, not paying attention to Xu Wang's substitution in the team, but after letting Li Zijin shout like this, they also looked inside the house again from outside the door.

Then, I was stunned, and then looked at Xu Wang and the others, there was something else in the hatred value.

"Hurry up and take your ghosts," Xu Wang waved his hand like a fly, with a little guilty conscience, "Sooner or later you have to add one of our former teammates, and everyone will be even."

After all, it's someone else's former teammate, whether the other party doesn't want it or automatically quits the team, there is always a sense of digging.

Han Buting, Li Xia, and Li Zijin: "..."

There may be a misunderstanding here, and it is gratifying that they are mixed in the hatred value.

"Hula-"

There was a beautiful flame on the ceiling.

The three of Han Buting looked at each other, and "bang-" closed the door from the outside, with neat movements, fast, and a top-notch desire to survive.

The inconspicuous door was like the dividing line between the two worlds. The fire and heat disappeared all of a sudden, leaving only the quiet corridor and the faceless woman in white.

Han Buting took her away with props and said, "It's not safe here, go to the next door and wait."

Today is different from yesterday. Only one ghost emerged from the hole in the wall, and the other four didn’t show up at all. Wei Menghan’s team said secretly that Han Buting could only deal with the faceless girl first, and hugged “That team should I have already entered the oil painting" beautiful imagination, and after preparing, I will find a way to summon the four ghosts.

Facts have proved that all good is an illusion.

But that team formed Chi Yingxue, which is really... It makes me feel happy.

"Phew—" Captain Han, who has always been introverted, entered 1309, where he had confirmed safety, and stared at the chandelier with a long relief, his mind and body relaxed, as if he was revengeful.

As for the saying that sooner or later, you have to add ex-teammates or something.

Li Zijin also rejoiced at the misfortune, but he couldn't figure it out more: "Why did they set up Chi Yingxue? Forgot about the amusement park?"

"Breaching the barrier is more important than feuding." Li Xia sat on the ground and counted the remaining yellow talismans.

Li Zijin: "Then you can't add everyone, right?"

Li Xia: "Skill is more important than character."

"Is this a question of good character?" Li Zi was close to the black line, "That's a lunatic!"

Li Xia raised her head and asked seriously, "Is it not in line with their team's style?"

Li Zi was stunned, Cupid, death stare, poisonous mushroom, vomiting, original script took turns in his mind...

"I'm fine."

Confirmed souls are destined to each other.

1310, After that, the room was in a mess.

"Then just wait for the oil painting to involve us in it," Xu Wang and Chi Yingxue said. "The specific task line, I'll tell you about it later."

From the moment of joining the team, the new teammates are defaulted to the home team's quest line and archive by "Owl".

"Okay." Chi Yingxue wiped back a handful of water-wet hair, revealing a smooth and beautiful forehead.

Xu Wang admired it for a few seconds, and was patted on the shoulder by his military advisor. He became shocked in seconds, and continued the topic before the rain stopped: "You killed them all?!"

Chi Yingxue was stunned for two seconds before following up with the jumping thoughts of the drama captain and explained, "I got hit by a zombie virus, and my actions are not under my own control."

"You alone killed all three of them?" Wu Sheng confirmed the details again, very calm and without any emotion.

"Yes." Chi Yingxue replied.

Wu Sheng nodded: "You are very skilled."

Chi Yingxue wrapped her arms and smiled indifferently, hearing that there was not much real compliment in her words.

Xu Wang secretly looked at the new teammate and felt that he was either pretending to be generous or really didn't care. Whether it was Wu Sheng's caution, Qian Ai's obvious hostility, or Kuang Jinxin's curiosity, he saw it all, but he didn't mind it, nor did he have any desire to explore it further.

This person and the original Chi Yingxue are like two extremes. The previous one wanted to provoke all the surrounding flowers and plants. He was about to fall into the sea and he had to say hello to them in the air, but this one was like a climber. Those who only look up at the top of the mountain do not care whether it is spring, summer or autumn and winter around.

The heat wave is back, and the flames are raining.

In the blink of an eye, the five were already in a medieval European village.

Just like yesterday, the villagers rushed to the square where the execution took place, ignoring them.

"Captain, the stationery box is ready to use!" Kuang Jinxin just glanced at it habitually, but he didn't expect a surprise.

The little friends clicked on the stationery box together, and sure enough, there was no more gray, and all the icons were full of color and fragrance.

Wu Sheng quickly compared the difference between the two days, and the answer was obvious: "There are other teams that won't work, we have to go alone."

Xu Wang suddenly felt very wronged: "We didn't pull them in yesterday..."

"They seemed to say what props to use yesterday," Qian Ai was somewhat impressed, "Props for the love line?"

Wu Sheng looked up, over the small square, the firewood under the torture rack was almost ready: "We must have missed something."

The five of them went to the execution place with ease. Xu Wang didn't bother his military advisor to think, but seized the time to give his new teammates a "summary of the previous situation".

Of course, this time, Captain Xu didn't use the "original script" again, he just conveyed their experience yesterday without adding any branches or leaves.

After Chi Yingxue listened quietly, he understood the speed of light retreat of the Han Buting team, and he could probably imagine the mood of the team who did not meet in the secret passage.

"So it sounds like our mission is to deal with evil spirits?" He needed to have a clear goal.

"For the time being," Xu Wang said, "but we cannot rule out that there are new clues in the future."

"Understood." Chi Yingxue said, opened her stationery box, and showed it to Xu Wang, "This is all my stationery, whether you are used to combining it or using it alone, you can."

In Chi Yingxue's stationery box, there are a total of nine stationery, you can remember it with just two glances, not to mention that the other party has no intention of limiting the time at all.

Xu Wang couldn't tell what he was feeling.

There must be surprises. The stationery box is the red line of the passer. If you show the stationery box to you, it will be a heart-to-heart.

But what Chi Yingxue said always gave him a subtle sense of "I gave you things, you can use them as you like". If you really take them as your own, you should have a discussion. What tactics I'm used to, you What tactics are used to, how should we run in...

Chi Yingxue raised her eyebrows slightly, her eyes showing doubts.

Xu Wang looked at his face, and suddenly felt a little guilty, thinking that he might be a gangster.

"For tactical problems, ask our military advisor," Xu Wang pulled Wu Sheng over, "He will teach you our combat system."

Chi Yingxue nodded to Wu Sheng: "I'm in trouble."

"No trouble," Wu Sheng looked up at the sky, "but I'm afraid it won't work now."

In the sky, pale blue petals are flying towards the flaming torture rack.

Just like yesterday, the flames under the torture rack slowly weakened as the petals fluttered, and the villagers scattered and fled.

"Amy—"

Following the cry of the young man under the tree, the girl with the torch rushed over again.

"Old Qian," Wu Sheng looked at his teammates, "Go and stare at York, and when he runs away, follow him to see where he lives!"

With the sudden change in tactics, Qian Ai was stunned for a moment: "York?"

"It's the man under the tree." Kuang Jinxin remembered his name.

Qian Ai was full of questions, but seeing that Amy was about to die, he didn't care about asking, and ran directly under the tree, otherwise York would run faster than a rabbit in a while.

As soon as Qian Ai rushed under the tree, Amy was on fire.

When York ran away and confirmed that Qian Ai followed, Amy had become a charred corpse.

With the previous shadow, the remaining three tried not to look at it, Chi Yingxue glanced at it, and the situation was calm between her brows.

Wu Sheng began to explain his thoughts: "The flow of time here is slower than outside the painting."

In a word, Kuang Jinxin and Chi Yingxue were still at a loss, but Xu Wang understood: "Because we need to leave enough time for the passers-by to find love line props here?"

"Yes," Wu Sheng said, "there are at least four and a half hours before the arrival of the evil spirits. It is impossible for us to drink a pot of poisonous mushroom soup."

Xu Wang didn't want to recall this episode: "What are you going to do?"

"Wait a minute, we'll split up, go home with Konina, and look for clues and props in the village all the way."

"Reasonable division of labor, tactical science."

"that's it?"

"...Why did the owl give me your group!"

Satisfied, Sergeant Wu rescued Konina from the rack by himself, and then started chatting and going through the plot.

Xu Wang tried to interject several times, but he didn't do it, so he had to stand beside him quietly and use his mental strength to help his military advisor.

Kuang Jinxin originally wanted to go forward, but when he saw that Chi Yingxue didn't move, he turned his head and saw that the other party was looking at his captain and military advisor, half a smile.

He didn't know why: "What's wrong?"

"In one sentence, you basically know what the other party wants to say," Chi Yingxue retracted her gaze and looked at Kuang Jinxin, "The tacit understanding between your captain and the military advisor is amazing."

"There were times when the communication failed, and I've seen the captain's black face twice..." Kuang Jinxin realized something was not right after half of his response, frowned slowly, and corrected, "It's ours."

Chi Yingxue tilted her head slightly: "Huh?"

Kuang Jinxin looked straight into his eyes: "It's our captain and counselor."

"Our" three words, he unabashedly emphasized.

Chi Yingxue understood, her brows and eyes widened, and it was that kind of genial smile again: "Accept the criticism and rectify it seriously."

Kuang Jinxin looked at him with a bit of confusion, always feeling that his warmth was like a layer of foggy glass.

Chi Yingxue in the amusement park is very dangerous, but his emotions can be seen and touched. Kuang Jinxin can still recall that Chi Yingxue was upset when the battle was interrupted by Li Zijin, and was inexplicably angry on the Ferris wheel. Also, the annoyance and anger when he was told by his own military adviser with an illusion tool.

Wu Sheng's words with Konina this time were not so stylized. Apart from the necessary main storyline, they also talked nonsense. First, they wanted to explore the information reserves of this NPC, and secondly, they were waiting for Qian Ai.

But until Qian Ai came back out of breath, Wu Sheng didn't talk about anything useful. The amount of information that Konina was given was extremely limited. Except for the quest line itself, there was only a basic understanding of a medieval village girl.

On 4/23, Hei Momo would take advantage of the rules, and on 3/23’s save point, he would ask “What does the next level mean?” But Konina, she didn’t even have the slightest curiosity.

Wu Sheng gave up the idea of sending her a small card.

York's residence has been settled, and the next step is to divide the troops.

"Wu Sheng and I are looking for clues in the village," Xu Wang clearly divided the labor. "Old Qian, you and Xiao Kuang and Chi Yingxue, go home with Konina."

Qian Ai was still out of breath, and was stunned for breath: "The three of us?"

Xu Wang was delighted: "Do you think you are more suitable for finding clues?"

Qian Ai: "That's not..."

"Then it's over," Xu Wang looked at Kuang Jinxin, "be optimistic about Lao Qian, don't let him drink mushroom soup again."

Kuang Jinxin immediately patted his chest: "Wrap me!"

Qian Ai: "… "

How greedy he is in the eyes of the people!

Chi Yingxue obeyed the arrangement, and Kuang Jinxin kept up with Konina.

Xu Wang quickly grabbed Qian Ai who was at the end, and whispered, "Be optimistic about the situation."

Qian Ai followed his captain's gaze and finally found Chi Yingxue's back, and immediately understood.

"Don't worry." His last sentence had a unique sense of mission.

Watching the friends and Konina go away, Captain Xu is actually not at ease. If possible, it is safest for him to go home with Konina. If Chi Yingxue wants to do something wrong, he will definitely be better than the old money. It feels faster.

But let Lao Qian come out to find clues... It's better to keep him on guard against Chi Yingxue.

Wu Sheng knew what Xu Wang was worried about, and because he knew, he was even more puzzled: "Let's take Chi Yingxue directly to find clues, and put him by our side to watch, won't we?"

The rest of Lao Qian and Xiao Kuang go back to Konina's house and feel at ease.

"Then the defense is too obvious," Xu Wang looked at him. "You can imagine how slow Chi Yingxue is to not see it?"

"It's all guarded, so do you have to maintain false unity and friendship?" Wu Sheng was tired for him.

"This is called the period of mutual inspection and running-in," Xu Wang said seriously, "If we can get through it, unity and friendship is real."

"Chi Yingxue is also inspecting us?"

"certainly."

Seeing that Wu Sheng still didn't agree, Xu Wang stopped talking nonsense, and summed up directly: "Getting along with people is a matter of knowledge. If you are as simple and rude as you, if you don't have a heart, you'll be gone."

Wu Sheng's black line: "I also have a few friends."

"Then cherish it," Xu Wang turned around, went to the first stop to find clues, and walked under the tree, "You save your heart and let the other party make up for it..."
