I die infinitely in the survival game

The old woman led Sui Jing and Li Qimei to another room. There was only a small square wooden table and four short and worn wooden benches in the center of the room.

But this room was dark and dark, even if a kerosene lamp was lit, it was still not very bright.

There are some sundries piled up in the corner of the room, and the table and stool look like they were moved there temporarily for show.

Before they came in, three bowls of rice were already placed on the table.

This is okay, but each bowl of rice has a pair of chopsticks inserted vertically, which makes people feel uncomfortable.

It is said that in some places decades ago, inserting chopsticks into rice was used to worship wandering ghosts.

She didn't think the system would set up such a meaningless plot for no reason.This may be some kind of hint given to them by the system.

"Children, sit down, sit down." The old woman greeted the two of them to sit down with a warm smile.

"Thank you, grandma." Li Qimei said obediently, picked a bench and sat down consciously.

Sui Jing looked at the mottled tabletop and sat down.

As soon as they sat down, a middle-aged woman came in from the door carrying two plates of food. "Mother, get ready."

she said so.

After placing the dishes, he took out the chopsticks inserted in the bowl and placed them neatly on the edge of the bowl.

"Okay." The old woman nodded happily. "Okay, Xuanxuan. Bring me a few more glasses of water. If the children get thirsty later, you don't have to make an extra trip."

"Yes, mother." The middle-aged woman responded obediently with her head lowered, turned around and walked out again.

"Children, eat quickly." The old woman handed the chopsticks to Sui Jing and Li Qimei and urged with a smile.

"Thank you, grandma, you can eat too." Li Qimei handed the pair of chopsticks placed on the table to the old woman without using her chopsticks first.

"Hahaha." The old lady took the chopsticks, and even for a moment, they didn't notice any unusual fluctuations on her face.

As the old lady spoke, she naturally picked up the plate of food placed in front of her with chopsticks, then put it into her mouth and chewed it carefully.

Within a moment, she swallowed what was in her mouth.

After swallowing, she looked at Sui Jing again, the corners of her mouth raised in a seemingly kind but actually strange arc.

"Eat?" the old woman said.

"Okay." Li Qimei and Sui Jing looked at each other, emotions that only each other could understand flashed in their eyes.

The old woman may not know, but she probably thinks her disguise is perfect.

But he didn't realize that his eyes were spinning uncontrollably after swallowing the chopsticks of food.

At that moment, her eyes were like the eyes of a puppet, without any sparkle that human eyes should have.

Sui Jing picked up a few grains of rice with his chopsticks and was about to stuff them into his mouth when a middle-aged woman walked in with three glasses of water.

The middle-aged woman didn't say anything. She stood next to Sui Jing and placed three glasses of water neatly in their hands.

As she was leaving, her hand accidentally touched Sui Jing's right hand holding chopsticks. With a "pop" sound, the chopsticks Sui Jing was holding fell to the ground.

"Ah?" Sui Jing exclaimed softly, bending down to pick up the chopsticks.

But the middle-aged woman was one step ahead of her, picked up the chopsticks for her and held them in her hands, bowing her head and apologizing again and again. "sorry Sorry."

"I didn't mean it." For some reason, the middle-aged woman felt panicked.

To Sui Jing, it was obviously just a trivial matter.

"It doesn't matter." Sui Jing said. "Do you have any extra chopsticks at home?" She turned to ask the old woman, with a hint of apology in her eyes. "It's so rude. I dropped my chopsticks before I even tasted grandma's food."

"It doesn't matter." The old woman shook her head kindly. "Xuanxuan, go help this child get a new pair of chopsticks."

"Yes, mother." The middle-aged woman nodded, bowed slightly towards the old woman, then turned around and walked out.

The moment she turned her head, her turbid eyes cast a strange gaze on Sui Jing.

"Grandma, I can just go by myself without bothering Sister Xuanxuan." Sui Jing said.

"It doesn't matter, Xuanxuan is used to being busy, let her go." The old woman didn't mind. "She's clumsy. I hope you don't mind."

"How could it be?" Sui Jing said, "Sister Xuanxuan must have been careless. I'd better go and have a look. I see that Sister Xuanxuan doesn't look very good."

"Really?" The old woman probably rarely paid attention to the physical condition of the middle-aged woman. After hearing Sui Jing say this, she realized that she was indeed gloomier than usual today.

"Then go and see your sister Xuanxuan on behalf of grandma." The old woman said and asked Sui Jing to follow her out.

"Okay, I'll be back soon." Sui Jing said this just to tell the old woman that she would come back and there was no need to go out of her way to find her.It was also to make her feel at ease.

After all, she hasn't given them her own things yet, and she won't let any of them escape at will.

"You're here." The middle-aged woman's voice was calm, as if she had expected that Sui Jing would follow.

"Don't you want me to come out?" Sui Jing asked, "No, I'm here."

"What do you want to tell me?" Sui Jing asked.

"Have you eaten?" the middle-aged woman asked incoherently.

"Not yet." Sui Jing knew she was asking about those meals. "Is there something wrong with the food?"

Since the middle-aged woman asked this, Sui Jing could only suspect that there was something wrong with those meals.

"No." The middle-aged woman denied: "Although there is no problem, I don't recommend you to eat it."

"And why?"

The middle-aged woman's hand holding the chopsticks paused, and her voice was hoarse and she said slowly: "That's not... what people should eat."

"?" Sui Jing's eyebrows moved.There was obviously something in the middle-aged woman's words.But she didn't say it outright.

Either she couldn't tell, or she actually didn't fully know what was going on.

"That glass of water..." The middle-aged woman thought for a while, looking a little confused. "Can't drink."

The middle-aged woman thought about her words and tried to speak more clearly. "You must not drink from what is given to you."

"..." Although the middle-aged woman didn't say much, Sui Jing was able to find useful details from her few words.

"I understand." Sui Jing said, taking the chopsticks from the middle-aged woman's hand. "Although I don't know why you want to help us, I still want to thank you."

"..." After Sui Jing finished speaking, the middle-aged woman, who had been pondering for a moment, suddenly raised her head and looked at Sui Jing blankly, as if she didn't understand what she was talking about. "Why do you want to thank me?"

"Did I do something?" the middle-aged woman asked.

Seeing that Sui Jing didn't answer immediately, she continued to ask: "Why did you follow me to the kitchen?"

"Go back to eat quickly. If mother finds out, I will be punished again." The middle-aged woman urged Sui Jing to leave quickly.

"..." Sui Jing's eyes flickered, with a hint of consideration in his eyes, and he took half a step back without leaving any trace.

The middle-aged woman's tone of voice seemed different from just now.
