Showbiz Escape

Chapter 36 Red and White Deserted Village 18
Judging from the plot and clues, since Boss Wang will appear in the small building on the second floor at night, then the small building probably has something to do with him, maybe it is his real estate.

The current situation is that the door of the low house I just found is locked, and the key is unknown. The only where Wen Zhuo and Ye Lingchuan can think of the key is the starting location.

So the two decided to go back to the second-floor building and check again. After all, they didn't search too carefully when they lived there.

Zhao Qianxue had no objection to this idea, and the rest of Xiang Zhifeng had no right to veto, so he could only resign himself to carrying the jar of corpse oil, continued to plug his nostrils with paper money, and returned with the team.

And this time the goal was clear. In order to catch up with time, everyone quickened their pace. He had to trot to keep up, and he was out of breath.

He was very confused, obviously they had carried the palanquin and coffin in the woods just now, and they had gone through a scuffle, and now they have walked a long way, why are the three of them still in high spirits?

"Hey, won't you three be tired?"

Wen Zhuo and Ye Lingchuan had long been used to his complaints and ignored him at all, only Zhao Qianxue replied in a nonchalant manner.

"You get tired too easily, don't you?"

"..."

As expected, the door of the small building on the second floor was unlocked, and it was easily pushed open.

After entering, there were only four oil lamps left on the table, which was consistent with the number of surviving players.

In view of the fact that when everyone spent the night in the room, they found almost everything they needed to find, this time they decided to focus on the living room, corridor and back kitchen.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xiang Zhifeng was finally able to put down the corpse oil and slowed down.

Wen Zhuo and Zhao Qianxue searched in the kitchen together. During the search, he noticed Zhao Qianxue's gaze that had been lingering on him. Wen Zhuo paused, and calmly turned his head away.

"Miss Zhao is more interested in me?"

Unexpectedly, Zhao Qianxue didn't deny it, and nodded directly: "Well, I'm quite interested."

"Where are you interested?"

"I don't think you are a true fan of the embroidered pillow star, why do you have to pass the level with a drag bottle?"

Wen Zhuo's eyes were wary for a moment, but his expression remained the same: "It's hard for me to survive, and I still have the ability to lead others to pass the level? That's his own luck."

"Really? But my intuition tells me that your strength is extraordinary, and your relationship with that man surnamed Ye is also extraordinary."

Therefore, a woman's intuition is really unreasonable sometimes, but it is very accurate.

Wen Zhuo simply didn't follow the other party's train of thought, she directly replaced defense with offense and asked questions proactively.

"Coincidentally, my intuition also tells me that Ms. Zhao, you are even more unusual—but I hope that this unusualness will not be reflected in teamwork. After all, the four of us are allies on the same boat now, so it's best not to mess around."

"You mean I'm not united, because all my former teammates are dead?" Zhao Qianxue smiled. Her demeanor was originally gloomy, but it's a little unaccustomed to laughing now, "Don't worry, you are different, I The things to be done now have been completed, and all that remains is to pass the customs——passing the customs requires sincere cooperation, and I will fully cooperate."

"What are you going to do? Apart from customs clearance, do you have other things to do?"

"I advise you not to ask, knowing too much is not good for you."

A sharp light flashed in Wen Zhuo's eyes, and she chose to remain silent, not because she was persuaded by Zhao Qianxue, but because she realized some details that had been overlooked before.

Why did Zhao Qianxue go to the funeral team without hesitation at the beginning, and why did Song Wenwen, who was in the same group, die so badly? She glanced at the other party at that time, but there was an inexplicable sense of pride and joy, as if she was not a teammate who worked together , but a masterpiece she just finished.

Why does her status seem to be out of the game? For her, customs clearance doesn't seem to be that important.

It suddenly occurred to Wen Zhuo that in the Vanity Fair game, besides the player, there are other identities.

Just like she herself is the bounty hunter of the heart group, who specializes in helping players pass the level, but there is also a bounty hunter of the spade group, who wants to frame the player out of the game.

It is very possible that she met her counterpart in the game. Perhaps Zhao Qianxue's target in this game is Song Wenwen.

However, this has little to do with her, as long as it doesn't affect Xiang Zhifeng's clearance, she doesn't care.

So without saying a word, she continued to rummage through the kitchen, checking all the rusty and dusty pots and pans.

"Okay, I won't ask Ms. Zhao about her personal affairs. The most urgent thing is to clear customs. Clearing customs is important."

At this time, I suddenly heard Ye Lingchuan's voice coming from the direction of the second floor, his usual first sentence was to inform Wen Zhuo.

"Wenzhuo, I found the key."

"found it?"

Wen Zhuo and Zhao Qianxue looked at each other, and they ran out at the same time.

The key was found in the corridor lamp on the second floor. Ye Lingchuan accidentally looked up and saw the strangely shaped shadow, so he moved a chair and stepped on it to remove the lampshade.

He signaled to the other three decisively: "Go, we have to hurry up."

******
When the four of them left the two-story building, they saw that the fog outside seemed to be thicker in the boundless night.

The wind sounded like a gust of wind, and the cold air continued to penetrate into the collar. They hurried to the low building they found before, but they didn't know that they heard some unusual movements in the middle of the trip.

That voice came from all directions in the form of an echo, like crying but not laughing, mixed with a faint shrill scream, from far to near, until it hurts the eardrum.

Xiang Zhifeng walked forward with the jar of corpse oil in his arms, looking back uneasily as he walked.

At the end of the extension of the desolate path, a large overlapping area of ​​red broke into his sight, and he realized what it was after a while, and he was almost shocked.

"Fuck! Female ghosts! Those wedding dress female ghosts are here——!!!"

In this village, the dead souls of women who have been persecuted to death by ghost marriage transactions for many years are coming in groups, with a ferocious aura that drags everything in front of them into hell.

Not only that, at the same time, the stone pavement that had been in disrepair for a long time also began to tremble and shatter, and countless arms that had become dry bones stretched out from the ground, they scratched towards the sky, frantically trying to break free from the imprisonment.

Zhao Qianxue couldn't help being shocked when she saw this scene.

"It should be the group of skeletons we saw in the mass grave."

Obviously, getting the key is the key to completing the final mission, but it is also the fuse to start the escape test.

The female ghost and the skeleton are two-pronged. At this speed, they can catch up in minutes, making it impossible for the four of them to avoid it.

Xiang Zhifeng broke down and roared: "There are grievances and debts, shouldn't they go to Boss Wang to settle accounts? What's the matter with embarrassing us?!"

The bronze long sword he took out from the temple earlier has now been transferred to Wen Zhuo. Wen Zhuo had no time to appease his restless emotions. She looked sideways at Ye Lingchuan and asked calmly.

"Brother Chuan, do you think this sword can deal with ghosts?"

Ye Lingchuan nodded slightly, and replied calmly: "You can try."
