Treacherous Collector

Chapter 45 Swish - it's gone

The blind group also came back soon, and in a blink of an eye, it was Lu You's turn to go out again.

"I knew I was standing in front of you, but now I have to run again."

Lu You patted Lu Hao on the shoulder, picked up the sign and waved his hand, signaling Xiao Xuan to follow.

The corridor was pitch black, and there was a glimmer of light at the end. Lu You thought that he would finish his work quickly, so he quickened his pace.

After turning the corner, you could clearly see the light from the candle and the base of the City God. Lu You was about to step forward to insert the base, but he saw the ghost standing in front of the shrine.

Its loose hair covered half of its face, but the remaining half looked like ordinary people, only a little fairer than ordinary people.

Lu You couldn't figure out what it was trying to do, so he approached slowly, but unexpectedly, the female ghost suddenly attacked and bit off half of the wooden sign with one bite!
Seeing this situation, the two ran away, and the female ghost still chased after her fiercely, but this time the difference was that it disappeared after chasing after the corner of the corridor.

"Hey, don't run away, she doesn't seem to be chasing anymore."

"Oh, really."

Lu You squatted on the ground panting heavily, and threw the wooden sign on the ground casually.

"What the hell, we're going to pass the level too fast and plan to rely on the level to make up for the game time?"

This Xiao Xuan is actually a big player on the steam platform, and he got Lu You's rotten meme in seconds, and received it casually:
"I haven't played for two hours, I think you can apply for a refund."

Lu You laughed loudly, and reached out to touch it, bad food!The sign is gone!
"I see, the sign is gone, you can feel it on the ground."

After all, Lu You hurriedly bent down and started looking for signs, feeling this and that.

"Where did it go? Ouch."

Lu You felt something stepped on his heel, so he looked back.

"Mama!"

I saw the female ghost with a blue face, squatting behind Lu You, holding the fallen wooden sign in her hand.

Lu You snatched the wooden sign, scrambled around the female ghost, turned the corner, and rushed towards the light of the shrine.

"Xiao Xuan! Come on, I'm plugged in!"

The big man followed closely behind, but the female ghost was nowhere to be seen. Lu You didn't ask much, but urged Xiao Xuan to ask for directions.

"Chenghuang, Chenghuang, please show me the next path."

As soon as the voice fell, the base of the shrine opened automatically, and a dark wooden box popped out, Xiao Xuan immediately caught it.

Suddenly, a ghost appeared in the darkness, and with a roar, Xiao Xuan disappeared, leaving the wooden box lying on the spot.

"Run! Leave me alone!"

There were hurried footsteps in the depths of the corridor. Lu You knew that although the female ghost hadn't shown any aggressiveness before, it didn't mean it wouldn't kill people.

The sound of footsteps became smaller and smaller, as if Xiao Xuan was running farther and farther away, Lu You picked up the wooden box and rushed back to the convenience store.

After knocking on the door and returning, the lights in the corridor suddenly turned on, but no one paid attention.

"Where's the Sanda coach?"

"Let the ghosts chase you outside."

Lu You raised the wooden box and signaled everyone to come over.

"Put the dice into this box, press and hold the up and down buttons on the board at the same time, a gap will pop up on the side of the board, insert the box to unlock the subsequent game, if it is not unlocked within five points, the whole team will be eliminated."

After reading the words engraved on the front of the box, Lu You quickly opened the box and put the dice in, and then followed the instructions to insert the dice into the box.

The chessboard was flipped over, and there was a crisp sound of wooden gears colliding. The floor was flipped to the third floor, and a partition was added in the middle of the chessboard, respectively marked: South Tower and North Tower.

The pawns that used to be pawns are gone, replaced by raised pocket shrines, all of which are painted red except the one near the convenience store which is painted green.

"I am back."

Xiao Xuan pushed the door in from the back door, her tone was extremely cold, as if she was dissatisfied with Lu You leaving him behind.

Xie Changming, who was leaning against the door, frowned and took a step back.

Flipping to the back of the board, the text changed again.

"The shopping mall is open for free exploration. Just unlock the electricity in the area by purifying the shrine. The foothold is unlocked, and you can enter other footholds to search for relevant clues."

"Ultimate Mission: Purify all shrines and survive until July 7th."

"Ah, do we have Taoist priests, who can do the work of purification?"

"If you want me to say, just lie down and find a way to escape."

"Boom boom boom!"

The glass door of the convenience store was knocked heavily.

"What are you doing?"

I saw five people standing at the door, except for the gentle and thin leader, the others were all healthy male youths.

"Hmph. Our boss thinks our land is too far away, and plans to requisition your place. Do you have any objections?"

A strong man stepped out of the team, aggressive and seemed to have malicious intentions.

"Yo~ Look at the shape of my mouth and see if you have any comments."

Xiao Xuan stood up and raised her mouth in a strange way, but the strong man was also stupid, so he really leaned over to look.

"Pooh."

Xiao Xuan spit on the strong man's face, and the strong man became furious and punched Xiao Xuan in the face.

"Pooh."

Xiao Xuan vomited blood, sat on the ground and stared at the strong man unhappily.

Lu You leaned into Xie Changming's ear and asked:

"Did he come in without knocking?"

"Correct."

Lu You looked shocked and took a step back unconsciously.

The few people who confronted them saw that the biggest threat had been dealt with, and stepped forward to threaten them one after another.

"Hey, your biggest body has fallen, why don't you hurry up?"

The well-mannered man took out a screwdriver and made a few vicious gestures.

"let's go."

Xie Changming stepped forward to help Xiao Xuan, and exited the convenience store with everyone.

Several people were walking on the road, feeling somewhat angry in their hearts.

The frequent abnormalities made Xie Changming keep a high level of mental tension for a long time. He thought that only ghosts and ghosts were dangerous in this shopping mall, but it was not the case, and people were also very dangerous.

Fortunately, there is no shortage of supplies here, otherwise there may be some big troubles.

"Let's go to the basement level. There is a food court there. There are sofas in the dining area where you can sleep. There are also various ingredients in the store next to you, so you don't have to worry about eating and drinking."

Lu You suggested.

Obviously there is no better choice now. Xiao Xuan, who is most familiar with the terrain, no longer speaks out to guide the way. Everyone can only follow Lu You's suggestion and go to the basement floor.

"It's already noon? Have we been setting the candles for four hours?"

Lu Hao looked at his watch, feeling a little strange, but his stomach would not lie, he was hungry again after having a full meal in the morning.

Going down the escalator, a few people came to the food city, and suddenly heard the wonderful sound of vegetables being stir-fried in hot oil.

Lu You called out tentatively:
"Su Zizhan? Is that you?"

"Ah? Who called me? I'm cooking, listen~no~clear~"

"Damn, it really is that foodie, everyone, good luck."

Chang Ming and the blind man were at a loss, not knowing who Lu You was talking about, so they followed Lu You, intending to go into the kitchen to find out.
