His larger-than-normal head stands out even more at this moment. It rests on the slender neck, as if it can fall from it at any time. Now this face is full of smiles, not on the surface, but a smile from the heart, full of joy - this smile did not make him look normal and gentle, but made him more weird.
Kou Dong's back felt icy cold. He didn't panic, he just opened his eyes and looked at the big-headed doll.
The two looked at each other.
Big-headed doll: "..."
Kou Dong: "..."
The big-headed baby frowned, as if feeling something was wrong, and looked at the person in front of him hesitantly. Logically speaking, if he catches this person awake, he can drag him out—
But Kou Dong didn't bark.
He hesitated in his heart, and was vaguely at a loss. This was the first time in a long time that they caught him without even yelling. What's wrong with this
The sound of gongs and drums outside the door had stopped, and a long and slender snake tail had already appeared at the door. The big-headed baby opened his mouth, and just about to call them over, he saw the child in front of him smiling at him.
Big-headed doll: "???"
He was in a daze when he saw Kou Dong raise his hand and hit him hard on the side of the neck with a knife—
Simply and neatly knocked himself out.
Big-headed doll: "!!!"
He was totally stupefied—how could he still have such an operation!
Reluctantly, he still reached out to touch it, but he heard a faint voice behind him: "He's not awake."
At some point, the beauty snake had entered the room silently. His long black hair hung down like satin, revealing the beautiful face in it. Xu is because she often sings Xiaodan in Tsing Yi, even if she doesn't speak, her brows and eyes are soft and charming, and her eyes flow like spring water.
The big-headed baby choked, feeling a little reluctant: "He just woke up!"
But it was too late. In that moment, Kou Dong had knocked himself out. Now, the big-headed baby wants to pull him out, but because the other party is still unconscious and restricted by the rules, it is impossible to do so.
He drooped his big head sullenly, looking unhappy, and rubbed the child's smooth face with his thin fingers.
"My rabbit..."
He had been optimistic about it for a long time, such a beautiful child was very suitable for a rabbit. He wants to let the one with the softest and shiny rabbit fur, long, soft and drooping ears that can be squeezed into his hands. He had already thought about it, but he still couldn't catch the opportunity, and finally found a gap, but the child hid in it.
This didn't make him give up, but made him even more excited. One evasive prey arouses his desire for aggression far more than any other.
The Beauty Snake remained calm, just fiddled with her snake tail leisurely, "Don't be impatient."
The big-headed baby snorted softly, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone, "Are you in no hurry?"
The beauty snake replied: "What's the use of rushing? It's better to have a strict plan."
He lowered his head slightly and looked at the sleeping person on the ground, with flames in his eyes that were exactly the same as those of the big-headed doll.
"He's a smart kid," he said slowly, "so...you have to be fully prepared."
I have to wait until I can lock his throat with full confidence...
Only then can he show his sharp minions.
This is the excellent quality that a hunter should possess.
When Kou Dong woke up, it was already bright outside. The big-headed doll and the beauty snake are all gone. As if it was just a wild dream.
He stretched out his hand to touch his neck, still feeling a little prickly.
Ye Yanzhi hung on his clothes and rubbed his neck expressionlessly, his voice was not very gentle, "Do you know it hurts now?"
Kou Dong: "Oh, I also use it on myself."
He also doesn't know how to fight in close quarters, and this move was taught to him by a friend who came out of the police academy when he was in college. At that time, he often felt that he was being followed, but he couldn't find the voyeur. A friend from the police school said, let me teach you a trick, if he wants to rob him, you can stun him.
Although Kou Dong didn't think that such a big man like himself was so lustful... But the other party was so enthusiastic and proactive, he couldn't refuse.
This became the only trick Kou Dong knew. It's a pity that he is not good at learning, and he can't get close to others, let alone stun them suddenly. If you bump into someone who is big and thick, his size is not enough to look at.
So the only usefulness of this trick is that it can knock him unconscious, and it will be accurate every time.
What does this mean
Kou Dong took the opportunity to educate his cub, "It shows that there are no useless skills in the world, and you can't overwhelm yourself with too many skills. Cub, you should learn more."
Ye Yanzhi remained silent, but just took a deep look at him.
"What I want to learn, can you teach?"
He seldom admits the name cub, and even less responds to Kou Dong's remarks as an old father. Now that he suddenly answered the call, Kou Dong was a little flattered, and hurriedly said: "Of course. As long as I can teach, I will definitely teach!"
Who made him a father! Kou Dong thought proudly.
Ye Yanzhi hummed, and jotted down the words in his little notebook.
The other party said, will teach.
— There is more than a little bit of what he wants to learn.
When they met in the teahouse during the day, Kou Dong told the other two about his experience at night, both of them broke out in cold sweat, and couldn't help but blame him for being fat, and dared to take such a risk.
"You are also big-hearted..."
On the other hand, the little girl looked at Kou Dong thoughtfully, but said nothing.
She felt from the mermaid dungeon that the npc in the game had a very different attitude towards the person in front of her; this dungeon basically proved her idea again and again.
More than just different
She even had an absurd idea—it was as if the NPCs in the entire game revolved around this person in front of her.
Before entering the game, Ashe had vaguely heard some rumors. For example, the game "Dead Man" did not endanger people's life and death at the beginning, it was just a simple game field; but from a certain day onwards, special modules appeared in the game, and the rewards in the modules were rich, even worth more than most people's lifetimes. savings.
Only relatively, the price they paid has also become high.
It is no longer time.
but life.
In the forum, many people have discussed how this change happened, and there are different opinions. Ashe glanced at it roughly at the time, and only vaguely remembered that someone said it was about a young man.
But in other speculations about different worlds, multi-dimensional, gods and ghosts, such reasons are really not eye-catching at all, and even some ordinary ones don't match this game. Therefore, no one believed this statement, even Ashe just glanced at it and pulled it over.
Thinking about it now, she vaguely felt something was wrong.
It was because of a young man.
Is... what kind of youth
She couldn't remember it, and decided to check it carefully when she went back.
Kou Dong continued: "So, Xiao Shuanzi is in the circus. But he should not be the one we have seen before."
Song Hong agreed with his point of view, "Those children are very familiar with these common circus members, but they don't have the violent reaction you said."
If it was really a small embolus, they should be more afraid than they are now.
He paused, and then said: "So, we have to enter this circus once more."
It sounds really worrying, but there is nothing to do. For clues, no matter what, you have to take a risk.
You can't be stuck in it all the time.
Kou Dong pondered for a while, and then asked, "Is it dangerous?"
Song Hong said: "The group of npcs are all there, we are going to sneak in, of course it is dangerous."
He still didn't say the rest of the sentence. If he is discovered, he will be turned into a monster.
Kou Dong felt puzzled from the bottom of his heart, "Who said we were going to sneak in?"
"...?"
This sentence stunned Song Hong.
"Otherwise, how do you get in?" He asked, "If you're just watching the show, you probably won't see Xiao Shuanzi."
And they don't have any money.
Kou Dong said: "It's all part-time work anyway, as long as you give me money, it doesn't matter where you work."
Song Hong: "..."
wait, that means...
Kou Dong enthusiastically put forward his ideas.
"How about we go to work in the circus?"
Song Hong: "..."
Ashue: "..."
How do you say that? Could it be that you are counting on the people in the circus to send you money so that you can avoid the round of drawing wooden figures at night
Make no mistake—they're all in the same family!
Where did anyone go to work in the enemy's lair?
The meaning of the two of them was almost written on their faces, and the complexion was more exciting than the other. Watch him test on the edge of danger. Song Hong swallowed, and said, "We don't have much work to do, so we can't dress ourselves up like that, right?"
With no hands or feet, and a strange shape, just thinking about it makes people shudder.
Kou Dong shook his head and said, "That's not necessary."
Song Hong breathed a sigh of relief.
Kou Dong continued: "Go and collect some money, so as to get a customer. We can do it."
Just based on the fact that he has a high degree of favorability, Kou Dong can say that he will definitely be the one with the best performance in the front desk, a serious business model!
He was very confident, but the other two didn't have a clue, and finally they walked to the Zhumen of the circus completely relying on their trust in him. Kou Dong explained the purpose of his visit, the gatekeeper glanced up and down at him, and immediately went in to pass the news.
After a while, the beautiful snake appeared from the door, with a soft voice, "Are you guys going to be the gatekeepers?"
Although this question was asked to three people, but his eyes fell directly on Kou Dong, obviously the only one he really wanted to ask was this one.
Kou Dong nodded and said, "It's the three of us."
The body of the beauty snake circled up, the corners of her lips were slightly raised, as if she was smiling, "You are still children.":
Kou Dong didn't panic at all, and replied: "Many people in your group are also children."
"..."
The beauty snake narrowed her pupils and looked at him thoughtfully. Immediately, he turned sideways to make room for the three of them to go in, "If that's the case, you can come in."
His long, thin tail is still hovering on the ground, no different from a real cold-blooded animal. Song Hong and the two walked in the door first, and heard a small exclamation from behind—when they turned their heads to look, it was Kou Dong who stepped on the man's tail. The beauty snake was staring at him, with storms gathering in its eyes.
Song Hong was afraid that this action would anger the NPC, so he hurried to drag Kou Dong, when he saw the child lowered his body and hugged the tail with great effort.
"My brother's tail is so long!"
Kou Dong praised without soul.
Brother in this life. It completely extinguished the anger that the beauty snake had raised just now, leaving no trace of flame left. He choked for a moment, showing no sign of getting angry, but smiled slightly, and said, "That's a nice shout."
He didn't care about it any more, Kuan Kui walked ahead.
The circus hadn't opened yet, and the front of the stage was empty with no one there. The beauty snake went straight to the back of the stage, and immediately pushed open a small dark door with its tail, "It's inside."
The three of them filed in.
As soon as you enter, you immediately feel cramped—this is not a spacious place, and there is not much backstage, but there are so many strange-looking people densely packed, the place is packed to the brim. No one helped them dress up and change their clothes. Most of the people present were helping each other to draw, and some of them didn't need to be painted, so they squatted in the corner gloomyly and didn't say a word.
Although there were many people and the place was full, it was very quiet, and even the sound of a needle falling could be heard.
Kou Dong quickly glanced around.
Those who make up are all missing hands and feet, but they smear their faces white, making them look like a clown deliberately making fun of them; the bears look gloomy, squatting on the box with their hands hanging down, and occasionally fiddle with the hair on the neck. Fur; the familiar big-headed doll is sitting in the corner, with a single thin leg stepping on the ground, holding the rope firmly in his hand. It’s just that one has changed from one to two at this moment. One is a chubby singing dog tied to its head, lying weakly on the ground; the other is a well-behaved little goat, half of its body is caged in the shadows. Li, the fur all over his body is white, but there are some black hair tips protruding from under the wool.
"The skin fell off." The beauty snake said in a flat tone, as if talking about the weather of the day, "she is really not suitable."
The ewe suddenly curled up a little, shrunk tighter into the corner, and retracted the goat's hooves that were on the ground.
"I don't think it's suitable either," the big-headed doll said, kicking the sheep with its toes, its attitude was obviously not enthusiastic, and it lacked interest. Arms and legs?"
Xiao Yu shuddered, raised his face almost pleadingly, and looked at the big-headed baby. But the other party just stomped her down even harder, saying mercilessly: "Don't lift it up, it will dirty my eyes."
Xiao Yu uttered a sob that was no longer human, and lay down on the ground.
The beauty snake turned sideways, letting out the person behind her.
He raised his voice slightly.
"These three—"
The gazes of everyone in the room gathered together, and suddenly became bright when they touched the person in the middle. This change was particularly obvious to A Xue and the others, it was as if someone set a fire in those pupils, making them all burn in clusters.
dark eyes.
yellow eyes.
Eyes covered by fur.
The pupils may be big or small, but the expression is exactly the same. They are all facing Kou Dong, shining brightly from inside.
A sense of suffocation hit his face. Under such gaze, Song Hong even felt that his breathing began to be difficult. That gaze was prying and malicious, and he had a weird illusion, as if the person next to him took a wrong step, these monsters would pounce on him, impatiently rubbing his life into his flesh and blood.
The beauty snake continued speaking with a smile.
"These three want to be the new gatekeepers of our circus."
There was still a strange silence in the room, and after a while, the big-headed doll whispered, "Is that so..."
He stared at Kou Dong hotly, and let go of the rope in his hand.
"That's really nice," he repeated, "that's really nice."
There was no objection in the circus, and the beauty snake led the three of them around the house.
It’s a house, but it’s actually not that big. There’s a stage in the front, and there are chairs in an open space, which is a place for guests to watch performances; at the back is a whole room, where circus members change their costumes and make-up. Going further inside, there are a few small houses where a few men lived. Kou Dong looked inside and felt that they were not like guests, but more like kidnappers.
There is a room at the end, and the door is locked. The beauty snake only brought them here, then turned around and walked back. Song Hong caught a glimpse of thin smoke coming out of the crack in the door, as if someone had lit incense. He asked, "Is there anyone living here?"
The beauty snake glanced at him and said, "Yes."
He dragged the snake's body, and walked in a meandering manner, which was surprisingly graceful, "It's just this one, don't get close."
Song Hong asked, "Why?"
"No reason."
The beauty snake obviously didn't want to say more, so she stopped the sentence, "It's for your own good."
The three of them looked at each other and had guesses in their hearts. Kou Dong turned his head to look around, and saw that there was mist in the room, obviously someone was there.
Who will it be
Is it the little embolus they're looking for
The beauty snake didn't let them watch more, and brought them backstage again. Song Hong and A Xue were sent to look at the door, but Kou Dong didn't have to go, the beauty snake said, let him stay here and help sweep the floor and wipe the table.
Kou Dong seriously doubts that this is a lie. According to him, he is sitting here just to show a group of NPCs.
Even though he has already gone through three dungeons, it is inevitable that he will feel uncomfortable at the moment.
Always watching what he does, what if he can gain a pound of meat just by looking at it
However, these ghosts were quite interesting to watch. When Kou Dong tentatively asked them what was in the last room, they all kept silent. They knew that they were ghosts, but they still acted as if they had seen a ghost. Kou Dong was very angry, they have all died once, and they can't die a second time, why are they still cowardly
When the circus started, the actors filed out, and only Xiao Yu was left in the background.
She was still curled up in the corner, leaning against the leg of the chair, raised her head, and looked at Kou Dong.
"You want to know?" she asked hoarsely. "You want to know what's in that house?"
Kou Dong knelt down in front of her and replied, "Yes."
"Then go and have a look," Xiao Yu laughed. "Go—there is the little Shuanzi you are looking for. He is locked up. If you find him and take him out secretly, you will win." gone."
The author has something to say:
Big-headed doll: You're awake.
Kou Dong: No, I fainted.
Big head doll: ...
Why is this so!
Very angry! ! !
