I die infinitely in the survival game

Chapter 241 Chapter 241: Asking God

In order to prevent the fragment from being lost again due to various accidents, Sui Jing put the fragment back into his pocket.

After Sui Jing placed the fragments, he looked down at the corpse on the ground for a while, then squatted down and untied the bandage on the impostor's face, raised his handsome eyebrows slightly, and said calmly: "This doesn't seem to be Shi Xiangqi's own corpse, right? ."

"Ah?" Li Qimei frowned. She didn't doubt the authenticity of Sui Jing's words, but she didn't see anything unusual about this Shi Xiangqi.

"Xiang Yuan, what do you think?" Sui Jing did not immediately explain Li Qimei's doubts, but called Shi Xiangyuan to him.

Shi Xiangyuan didn't expect Sui Jing to call him suddenly, but he still walked over obediently and started to examine the counterfeit body according to what Sui Jing said.

"She... is indeed not Shi Xiangqi." After a moment, Shi Xiangyuan said.

"As you can see, there are obvious signs of sutures in the hairline and mandible of this corpse."

Knowing that Li Qimei and the others might not understand the reason, she explained in detail to others:
"And you can see that there are obvious traces of the joint on her wrist. As far as I know, Shi Xiangqi doesn't have so many strange scars on her body."

"Then Sui Jing, haven't you noticed anything wrong with this impostor before?" Li Qimei asked.

Before this, Sui Jing had actually healed this impostor's injuries.

Didn't even she see these clues?

"No." Sui Jing said truthfully: "My guess is that these traces of it, which are similar to sewing, can be hidden while it is alive. It will probably only emerge after it completely loses its ability to respond to life."

"That's probably why it's so successful at pretending."

Moreover, the counterfeiter has most likely met Shi Xiangqi, and what's more, they may have had a brief exchange.

"Forget it." Sui Jing stopped delving into the details. After all, considering the current situation, studying these would not do them any good.

"Move her position and prepare to find the remaining fragments." Sui Jing said.

"I'll come, I'll come." He Lianhai responded.There are only two men here, he and Li Dun.

He was embarrassed to let several ladies do such chores, although none of them looked like they needed special care.

But in order to prove that he was not a sluggish person and was still somewhat useful, he had to take the initiative to take on the task of cleaning up the mess.After all, with Sui Jing in other places, he couldn't help much.

As for Li Dun, his legs were trembling with fear. Let alone whether he wanted to help or not, even if he really wanted to help, he was powerless.

"But, how to clean up?" He Lianhai asked innocently.People in the previous dungeons just died, and no one had ever dealt with them.

"Just drag it to the corner and lean on it." Sui Jing's original intention to clean it up was just to keep it out of the way.

"What about him?" Ge Lilai casually pointed at Shi Xiangtian, who was still collapsed on the ground.

"..." Sui Jing's original intention was not to care, but he was still a living person after all.It feels weird to have him here like this.

What's more, in the final analysis, there is no deep hatred between them that can cost their lives.Thinking about it carefully, it seems that a little friction would not kill him.

At least we can't let him die so casually.

Sui Jing sighed silently, reached out and lifted Shi Xiangtian's collar and dragged him to the corner at the other end to lean against.

He Lianhai clapped his hands after finishing dragging, "So, what should we do now?"

"How to find the third fragment?"

Sui Jing walked around the hall with a dull gaze, and walked to the pair of incense candles in the center that were half a person tall and as thick as an average adult's forearm.

"I have an idea." Sui Jing bent down and looked at the pair of red incense candles.

The strange thing is that the flames of this pair of incense candles are very high and bright, but after burning for such a long time, the wax oil on them shows no sign of melting.

Other scented candles were gradually melting out wax oil, except this one.

Sui Jing gently touched the red candle with his fingertips, and suddenly felt an astonishing chill hit his forehead the moment he touched the body of the candle.

She retracted her hand silently, "How about we put out the candles first and try it?"

"Is this appropriate?" Ge Lilai didn't agree with her approach.Shi Xiangyu was killed just after the candle was blown out by the wind.Are they actually taking the initiative to extinguish the candles now?
Sui Jing saw what she was thinking and nodded slightly. "The results of doing something proactively and doing something passively are quite different."

"..." Ge Lilai felt that Sui Jing had already said this because he was already somewhat confident. "But there are quite a lot of candles in here. Do we have to blow them out one by one with our mouths?"

"No need." Sui Jing pointed to the pair of huge red candles in front of him. "Just blowing it out should do the trick."

"But one thing you have to remember is that after the fire goes out, try not to make any noise."

"Otherwise I can't predict what will happen."

"Huh..." As soon as Sui Jing finished speaking, he blew away the candlelight with a gentle blow.

Something magical happened. The moment the candles of the pair of huge incense candles were extinguished, the flames on the other incense candles also died out in a moment.

In the silence and darkness, one could barely hear anyone's breathing. Sui Jing's eyes were fixed on the huge golden statue in the center of the back of the hall.

She noticed from the first time the incense candle was extinguished that the black mist that gathered around Shi Xiangyu came from the statue.

As long as there is black mist coming out of it this time, Sui Jing's guess will be correct.

Everyone was waiting quietly on the spot, when suddenly a cool breeze blew in the hall again.

Sure enough, Sui Jing clearly saw billowing black mist coming out of the sculpture again just like before.

This black mist is very substantial and thick, as if it can be pinched with your hands.No wonder Sui Jing could still vaguely see it in the dark environment.

But unlike before, this time the black mist only lingered around the statue, and did not go straight to a specific target person like before.

It seems that no one has triggered the death mechanism in the game yet, so it will not attack other players staying in the hall indiscriminately.

Another possibility is that it failed to find the target in the room in a quiet situation where you could hear a pin drop.

Of course, this possibility is very small.

After Sui Jing finished checking, he lit the two incense candles in front of him again.

The moment the firelight reflected in her eyes, the black mist that was floating around without a clue went back.

The sudden cold wind also stopped as usual, and the empty hall suddenly became bright, as if nothing happened.

Although no one else saw what happened in the darkness, they vaguely sensed that something was wrong in the darkness.

Even so, they still didn't understand why Sui Jing walked towards the statue in the center behind with a calm pace.

"Knock, knock, knock—" Sui Jing curled up her fingers and tapped tentatively on the lower part of the statue with her knuckles, but came to an unexpected conclusion.

"This statue is hollow." Sui Jing said.

Not only that, although this statue is gleaming with golden carvings on the outside, if you look closely, you can find many large or small cracks on its body.

Under the flickering warm orange candlelight, a strange feeling of discomfort unexpectedly appeared.

He Lianhai also knocked on the body of the sculpture, confirming Sui Jing's conclusion. "Is it the only one that is hollow, or are all the statues in this hall hollow?"

"Only this one." Sui Jing's eyes showed a vague light. "Does this mean there must be something wrong with it?"

"It's hard to say that what we're looking for has something to do with it."

"Ah?" Li Qimei looked up in surprise at the statue that was almost as high as the roof. "No? Real or fake? How do you know?"

Li Qimei asked three questions in succession, and continued without waiting for Sui Jing to open his mouth: "Besides, it's just a statue and it can't speak. If it's really related to it, how can we find it?"

Sui Jing gave them a brief summary of what happened just after the candles were extinguished.

"So this is how Shi Xiangyu died, tsk tsk tsk." Li Qimei sighed: "So according to what you said, there must be something weird even if there is nothing we are looking for in it."

She nodded suddenly as if she had understood something, her face full of high morale and eagerness to try. "In that case, let's find out together."
