Card Room

Chapter 567, Betrayal and Truth

"Laogui, don't you still do it?"

Just after Xu Muran said these words, Lu Jiuchuan saw a sharp knife pierce his chest in an instant.

The blood splattered out of his chest, he turned his head in disbelief, and looked at the very familiar old man in front of him-this man had lived with him for so long, and was his most respected senior and most trusted teammate.

He had never thought about it—the ghost in the team was actually Gui Yuan Zhang!

Consciousness was quickly peeled from the body. Before he fell, he only heard Tang Ci's voice trembling and shouting "Brother Nine!"

Lu Jiuchuan's vision was completely blurred. He wanted to hold Tang Ci's hand and say sorry. He also wanted to say sorry to Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou, but he had no time to do anything, and he completely lost consciousness.

Tang Cijai was about to split, and wanted to question Gui Yuan Zhang, but Gui Yuan Zhang made a decisive move. With a sudden wave of the brush in his hand, Tang Ci was blown into the distance like a broken kite. The surrounding flames He quickly wrapped his body. Before the teammates could react, they saw that Tang Ci had been instantly swallowed by the raging fire!

Chu Huaying immediately covered her body with her invisibility cloak and rushed forward like flying.

Her speed is the fastest of all people.

Seeing that she had disappeared, the men in the crowd hurriedly took out the white crystal ball and wanted to take a picture of her, but Chu Huaying's speed was as fast as the wind, and in an instant, she had already protruded from the fire. The man turned his head to see, how could there be Chu Huaying's shadow in the vast desert?

Xu Muran looked cold and gritted his teeth and said, "Let her run away again, chase me!"

Several hunters nearby immediately chased after Chu Huaying disappeared.

Lao Mo stood there, dumbfounded, and wanted to open the invisibility cloak, but he saw Gui Yuanzhang suddenly turned his head and stared at him coldly, saying, "You are not as fast as Huaying, and you can't run away, so don't waste your energy."

Old Mo trembled, "Why do you... why betray everyone?"

Gui Yuanzhang's eyes were cold, "Betrayal? I've always been a hunter, so how can I say betrayal? I joined you, just as an undercover agent. Fortunately, the final double king's secret room will solve all of you at once."

Lao Mo backed away while talking. He wanted to open the cloak of invisibility. However, the man holding the crystal ball suddenly shed a beam of white light from the air, and his invisibility skills immediately became invalid. Lao Mo didn't have any feats. In a blink of an eye, he was surrounded by several hunters. At the moment when his body was penetrated by a sharp sword, Lao Mo looked straight at Gui Yuan Zhang, his eyes full of disappointment.

Gui Yuanzhang calmly put away the dagger, and walked to Xu Muran.

Xu Muran smiled and stretched out his hand, "Going back, happy cooperation."

Gui Yuanzhang did not shook his hand, and asked faintly, "Are you sure his promise is true, kill the challenger in the final chamber, we can gain immortality in the card world?"

Xu Muran raised his eyebrows, "Of course. The master's identity is one level higher than the gatekeeper. His words are the rules."

He stepped forward and smiled and patted Gui Yuanzhang's shoulder. "We waited too long for this opportunity. Xiao Lou and the group are too difficult to deal with. Thanks to you hiding deep enough to get a good blow. Now, Xiao The four hard bones of Lou, Yu Hanjiang, Lu Jiuchuan, and Tang Ci have been resolved, and the remaining Shao Qingge, as long as the time for the transformation of the Insect King is over, he can only be captured with his hands.

Gui Yuan Zhang said, "Shao Qingge should have 2 hours left in his transformation. Fire can be used to deal with him. However, he can get into the sand when he becomes the Queen of Insects. You must send someone to find his place first."

Xu Muran nodded, "Don't worry, I have already sent someone."

The man holding the crystal ball whispered, "Brother Xu, what should I do with Liu Qiao?"

"We promised Liu Ying that as long as she completes the task, she will keep her sister alive." Xu Muran's eyes narrowed slightly, and her tone suddenly became cold. "Wait until the others are dealt with, and finally kill the sisters Liu Qiao and Liu Ying. They are bad things."

After he said that, he released a card of Thousand Miles Sound Transmission and said, "Ziyang, start teleporting."

The man holding the crystal ball reminded, "Long Sen hasn't found it yet, do you want to look for it again?"

Gui Yuan Zhang said, "Long Sen was unconscious and still had a high fever, only half of his breath left, no one to take care of him would not survive tonight.

Xu Muran smiled and beckoned to the two people beside him, "You two are here to guard, in case Long Sen's fate is too great..." He wiped his neck with his hand, and the two immediately nodded. "I see, Brother Xu."

Xu Muran said, "Others follow me back to the oasis and get Shao Qingge and Chu Huaying!"

A teleportation was sent from the oasis, except for the two hunters left behind, the others disappeared without a trace in an instant.

The fire burned for a long time before it gradually went out.

The crimson flames were about to stain the night sky, and the desert was full of blood. Lao Mo fell to the ground with wide-eyed eyes. Lu Jiuchuan was full of anger when he died, and Tang Ci was thrown into the fire, leaving no bones...

In the distance, the sand suddenly became loose, as if something was about to break out of the ground. Immediately afterwards, a gust of wind blew across the surface of the sand, and a cloud of dust was blown away by the wind.

All this happened just behind the two hunters, so they did not pay attention.

I don’t know how long it took. In the desert several kilometers away from the death of Brother Jiu and others, a head suddenly came out of the sand. His face was as pale as paper, sitting on the ground and panting. There were bruises all over the body.

His lips were chapped and his whole body was shaking violently.

——Long Sen woke up, but it was too untimely.

The moment he woke up, he saw Qu Wanyue being torn into pieces by the black mist, and he heard Mr. Gui rebel, killing Lu Jiuchuan, Tang Ci, and Mo Xuemin!

He was turned into sand by Qu Wanyue and melted in the desert. Watching his wife being killed, watching his teammates die one after another, but he can do nothing, this feeling is really **** bad!

Long Sen hugged his head hard.

The man in extreme pain had a hoarse whimper in his dry throat.

What should I do?

Looking at the endless desert, Long Sen was completely at a loss. He took a deep breath, took out the grapes from his backpack, and ate them hungrily. Then he took out a bottle of streptomycin and a syringe, pointed it at his arm, and simply poked a needle.

Qu Wanyue gave him the medicine and knapsack. This was his only hope for survival. Suicide directly is too bad, and I am sorry that his teammates did not abandon him when he was seriously ill.

Even if he is going to **** to accompany Qu Wanyue, he still has to find a way to tell Shao Qingge the truth.

Oasis town, hospital.

Xu Muran took the hunters into the hospital, and Gui Yuanzhang discovered that this was the base camp of the hunters in the Double King’s Secret Chamber. Xu Muran lived in the “dean’s office” on the top floor, and Gui Yuanzhang followed him all the way. Entered the office and asked in a low voice, "How many hunters were sent on this mission?"

"Thirty." Xu Muran paused, squinting to look at Gui Yuanzhang, "Why did Gui Lao suddenly ask about this?"

Gui Yuan Zhangdao, "With so many people, how to distribute the rewards after the task is completed, have you thought about it?"

Xu Muran smiled and turned around and poured him a cup of tea, saying, "The mission of the Double Kings Chamber will reward two permanent pass cards, one for me and you. The remaining survival time cards will of course be allocated according to everyone’s contribution. Isn’t this that we have discussed long ago?"

Gui Yuanzhang frowned slightly. "In front of me, there is no need to say these high-sounding words. As the boss of the Eternal Kingdom Guild, after you get the survival time card, you will definitely take care of the people in your guild first. As for other hunters, For example, Liu Ying, as long as you are not obedient to you, you will definitely get rid of them first."

Xu Muran was pierced, but he didn't feel annoyed at all. He narrowed his eyes and said, "When I saw you in the Hunter Alliance, I said that we can work together to change the pattern of the card world. Eternal Kingdom, the name of this guild. I personally picked it up. I think you should know what it means when you are old."

Gui Yuanzhang folded his arms around his chest, and said lightly, "Of course. You want to be like a gatekeeper-a chess player, not a chess piece. Any challenger who may pass the secret room and leave the card world will be Was wiped out by you. Can you tell me why now?"

Xu Muran leaned on the back of the chair, picked up the tea cup on the table, and slowly said, "The sun and the moon are in the same glory, and the two kings coexist. But in fact, you should have noticed that the concepts between the two kings are not inconsistent. We as the moon **** The hunters of the camp, only by completely smashing the best challenger team on the Apollo side, the balance of the world, will tilt towards us."

Gui Yuanzhang seemed to have caught something, his eyes suddenly cold, "What if a challenger clears the level?"

Xu Muran shrugged, "Then our hunters will most likely be wiped out."

Chapter Gui Yuan "..."

The other party's words made his brows frowned tightly, "Tuan Mie? That is to say, disappear completely?"

Xu Muran put down the coffee in his hand and looked up at Gui Yuan Zhang. "It's like dawn, the sun rises, and the night will no longer exist. As long as any challenger clears the level and returns to reality, it will have a butterfly effect and completely change the card. World. Do you now understand why I must let you be undercover by Lu Jiuchuan?"

A sharp light flashed in the man’s eyes. "I didn’t expect that Lu Jiuchuan could walk out of Meihua J’s nightmare room! I know him, and I’m afraid he will bring a stronger teammate to clear all the rooms and disrupt me. plan of!"

Gui Yuanzhang calmly looked at the other party. "So, you modify the information of the Intelligence Bureau to make Tang Ci mistakenly think that I am also a challenger who came out of the nightmare secret room. He also asked me to set up a distant association as a cover, in the contract of Xiaolou. Sign it?"

Xu Muran smiled and said, "I know, you have been waiting for this day for a long time. In the future, except for the double kings in this card world, the rest of the card world is up to the two of us. You can continue to lurch as a'challenger' , Use the distant association to find outstanding talents, and cooperate with me to kill all outstanding challengers. If this continues, no one will ever leave the card world."

Gui Yuanzhang's calm face finally appeared with a slight smile, "Very good."

He took the initiative to stretch out his hand and looked into Xu Muran's eyes, "Happy cooperation, Team Xu."

Xu Muran stood up with a friendly attitude, "Thank you Guilao for your cooperation. Next, Shao Qingge and Chu Huaying are left."

Gui Yuan Zhang said, "I will solve Shao Qingge personally, and Chu Huaying will leave it to you."

The two looked at each other and nodded at each other, which was considered a consensus.

Chapter 569

Shao Qingge and Ye Qi have been investigating the oasis for a long time. Except for Cheng Ziyang and Xue Qing who they met, the other hunters did not know them.

Ye Qi carefully suggested, "Why don't we find Liu Qiao first? If the Liu Qiao in the team is pretending to be a hunter, then the real Liu Qiao must be controlled by them, and he has lost consciousness."

Shao Qingge asked, "This oasis town is very large. Where do you think Liuqiao is most likely to be hidden?"

Ye Qi scratched his head and thought about it, then suddenly said, "Hospital!"

"Where did you and Professor Xiao meet?"

"Well, we encountered a strange mirror maze in the hospital. Then Liu Qiao and I suddenly stretched out a hand in the mirror next to Liu Qiao and pulled us in. Liu Qiao who appeared again stabbed Professor Xiao to death and stabbed him. I'm dead." Ye Qi seriously recalled the scene at the time and guessed, "I think it is most likely that Liu Qiao was replaced when he was pulled into the mirror."

Shao Qingge also felt that this kind of speculation was more reasonable. There were two points in time when Liu Qiao disappeared in front of everyone. One was when he was swept away by a sandstorm, and the other was when he was pulled away by a mirror. She and Lao Mo were swept into the depths of the desert by the sandstorm. When Brother Nine found them, their performance was not abnormal. Therefore, the most likely thing was that they were captured and controlled in the mirror maze.

It seems that it is necessary to go to the maze again.

Shao Qingge said, "I still have a copy of the Tao Yuanming card in my hand. Why don't you go to the vineyard and wait for me, and I will find Liu Qiao in the labyrinth. When I find her, you immediately open the Taohuayuan and send us there. "

Ye Qi now only has a cloak of invisibility. The two enter the maze together, and no one can get out in case of trouble. One person goes to investigate and the other is ready to send Taohuayuan at any time. This is the safest way.

Mr. Shao is currently in the state of the insect king, and Ye Qi didn't want to mess with him, so he simply agreed to the other party's proposal. "Well, you must be careful alone. If you encounter trouble, call me with your heart and soul."

Shao Qingge said, "Don't worry, there are still 2 hours to transform, let's hurry up."

After the two separated, Shao Qingge went into the sand and hurried to the hospital that Ye Qi said.

Fortunately, the red cross mark in the hospital was very obvious. Shao Qingge went all the way to the north according to the Polaris position and quickly found the hospital. He drilled from the sand to the back door of the hospital, stared slightly at his legs, and crawled in quickly.

The corridors are dimly lit, and there are many doors on both sides of the corridor on the first floor, and each door is written with "pharmacy", "emergency observation room" and other common signs in hospitals. But the strange thing is that he did not see the "mirror" Ye Qi said.

Shao Qingge was puzzled. Suddenly, there was a sound of very light footsteps behind him. He hurriedly jumped to the roof, with sharp nails in both hands, hooking the roof like hooks, hiding in the darkness.

The eyesight of Zerg’s pupils in the dark was several times better than that of humans. He could clearly see the face of the person entering the corridor from a distance of ten meters away-it was actually Liu Qiao!

Shao Qingge's heart shook slightly, and immediately stared at the opponent holding his breath.

Liu Qiao walked along the corridor into the depths of the hospital. After passing two corners in a row, she came to the end and pushed open a door with the words "Emergency Operating Room" written on it.

Shao Qingge quickly crawled on the roof and followed all the way to the door of the operating room. He used a sharp nail to poke a hole above the glass door and squinted into it.

Then he saw a shocking scene.

I saw a girl lying on the hospital bed in the operating room with her eyes closed and her face pale-she is the real Liu Qiao!

And Liu Qiao who walked into the operating room suddenly changed his appearance.

A tall pony tail appeared behind her head, and her figure seemed to have grown 10 centimeters taller in an instant. Although the facial features and Liu Qiao were somewhat similar, they were much weaker than Liu Qiao. Her fingertips flashed coldly, and without knowing what card was used, Liu Qiao on the hospital bed suddenly opened his eyes.

Liu Qiao was startled when he saw the person in front of him clearly, "...sister?"

Liu Ying smiled and said, "It's me."

Liu Qiao sat up abruptly, watching her alertly, "What is the gift I received for my 5th birthday?"

"When I was 6 years old, my sister secretly bought you a robot figure with pocket money." She stretched out her hand and gently held the back of Liu Qiao's hand. "I'm real, you don't need to confirm repeatedly."

Liu Qiao looked at her suspiciously, "However, I have not been able to find your whereabouts in the main city, and Mr. Tang's intelligence bureau network does not have your information. What is going on?"

Liu Ying said softly, "I was attacked by hunters after I entered the main city and was rescued by Brother Xu, the president of the Eternal Kingdom. In order to protect me, he hid me and kept me anonymous. During this time, I I've been looking for..."

Liu Qiao stared at her and interrupted her in a low voice, "You are lying."

Liu Ying bit her lip and looked at her innocently and sadly.

Liu Qiao said, "Every time you lie to me, you dare not look at me. What's more, if you were really saved by the people of the eternal kingdom, why would you suddenly appear here?! Isn't this the double king's secret room? You again We didn’t bind the contract with us. This time, the Double King’s Secret Room never said that there are other challenger teams, so the only explanation for your presence here is..."

Liu Qiao paused, his face was ugly, and he said word by word, "Sister, have you joined the hunter camp?!"

Liu Ying's eyes suddenly red, and she choked up, "I don't want to do this! I have been looking for you, but after coming out of Plum Blossom 2, there is still no whereabouts of you. I dare not go to the back room by myself, just follow one. The girls formed a temporary team, and we were shot and killed by prisoners in the financial crisis world of 3 of Spades..."

It seems that thinking of that bad experience, the girl's whole body began to tremble slightly. "I was eliminated and went to the nightmare room. I was also seriously ill because of drinking dirty water. I went around begging with a high fever, but no one gave me anything. I only lasted for food for five days. Just when I thought I was going to die, someone suddenly appeared in front of me and asked me to do a multiple-choice question."

The man in the silver mask has gentle eyes.

He looked at Liu Ying, who was dying, and whispered in his ear, "Give you the last chance to choose. Option a, if you fail to clear the nightmare room, you will be obliterated, and you will be completely relieved from this, and no more pain."

"Option b, obey my orders and become a hunter. As long as you can kill other people, you can get time to continue to live, trading life for time, is it fair?"

When Liu Qiao heard this, his voice trembled slightly, "Have you chosen a hunter?"

Liu Ying nodded lightly. "If it is me, of course I will choose a. If I die, I don't have to suffer these crimes. But you were in a car accident with me. I am worried that you are also in this world. I want to find you. As long as I can live Go down and let me do anything!"

Liu Qiao clenched his fist hard, "Then you will kill someone?!"

Liu Ying immediately shook her head, "No! You know, my sister is not very courageous, let alone killing, I dare not even kill fish. After I entered the main city, the Eternal Realm suddenly sent someone to contact me and said they could help me. They Take me to meet with Chairman Xu, he gave me a few survival time cards, so I can wait with peace of mind, saying that he will help inquire about you."

The eternal kingdom, this guild Liu Qiao is very familiar with.

One of the largest guilds in the card world. It is said that the people in this guild want to continue to survive in the card world, with the goal of clearing the customs weekly. Most of them have bought real estate in the main city of the card world, and some people married the aborigines. Have children.

Now it seems that this strange guild may be the home base of hunters!

Liu Qiao asked with a stern face, "Aren't you stupid enough to believe him? He didn't know you, so why did he give you the time card and help you find me?"

Liu Ying argued in a low voice, "He also graduated from Jiangzhou University, my senior, or our fellow. He said that it is not easy for everyone to live in the card world. He can help each other and he is naturally willing to help me..."

Liu Qiao's eyes were sharp as a sword, "You believe it?"

Probably because she also felt that this reason was untenable, Liu Ying did not explain any more, she lowered her head and said, "I can't help it if I don't believe it. I don't have any money on my own. If I want to exchange my survival time card, I have to kill. I can send someone under the fence and stay with him. Fortunately, he treats me very well and has been sending people to inquire about you..."

Liu Qiao noticed that something was wrong, and hurriedly asked, "What then? He inquired about me and asked you to come to the Double King's Secret Room to rescue me?"

Liu Ying nodded, "Yes, as long as I complete the task, we can all get the immortal card."

Liu Qiao's face turned green and white, his parents were busy with work, and their sisters had taken care of each other since they were young, and their relationship was good. Liu Qiao understands this elder sister, her elder sister is weak in temperament, and has a mild "Notre Dame's disease". She was bullied when she was a child and dare not take revenge. Every time it was her sister who rolled up her sleeves to help fight.

With such an obvious trap, Liu Ying actually naively thought that the "hometown" would help her!

The so-called seniors and fellows in the treacherous card world, who will be free to help you? If you don't stabb you, you have to thank them for not killing. That brother Xu is obviously using Liu Ying!

Thinking of the shock when I saw my sister for the first time in the labyrinth, and the momentary coma afterwards, a very bad premonition flashed in Liu Qiao's heart. She quickly turned over and got out of bed, just about to rush out, suddenly, The glass door of the operating room was kicked open, and a dark figure crawled over the roof!

The person's eyes were red. Before Liu Ying had time to react, the other party suddenly stretched out her long arm, grabbed Liu Qiao's arm, and found that he was Manager Shao, and Liu Qiao did not resist. The next moment, the scene in front of him changed, and the familiar Peach Blossom Spring appeared in his vision.

Ye Qi hid in hiding under the tree, Shao Qingge let go of Liu Qiao, and whispered, "Liu Qiao, your sister really hurt us!"

Liu Qiao hurriedly asked "What happened?"

Shao Qingge said solemnly, "She pretended to be you and killed Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang."

Liu Qiao "..."

The girl's face suddenly disappeared. She just wanted to talk, but Long Sen's voice came from next to her, "Mr. Shao, I have something to tell everyone, Mr. Gui, he is the undercover of the hunter who is standing by our side! "

Shao Qingge was surprised "What?!"

Although Ye Qi was horrified, in order to protect him, Mr. Shao told his teammates that he was dead. Therefore, he forcibly controlled his emotions and covered his mouth without daring to make any noise.

Long Sen's eyes were bloodshot. He clenched his fists and said in a dumb voice, "After you left, Liu Ying used teleportation skills to pull a group of hunters over to besiege us. Wanyue was caught by the man holding the crystal ball. I was killed, and then Guilao suddenly rebelled and killed Jiu Ge, Mr. Tang and Lao Mo! I was turned into sand by Wanyue and buried in the distance, so I was lucky enough to keep this life."

Listening to Long Sen's words, Shao Qingge's face suddenly changed, and the blue veins on the back of his hand violently.

Ye Qi hid under the peach blossom tree, cold all over.

How could this be?

Go old? The oldest person in the team, Professor Xiao said that he is a master of Chinese studies. He writes good calligraphy and his first-hand Chinese paintings are also well received. Everyone has always respected him and called him "predecessor". How could he be? !

Shao Qingge gritted his teeth, "No wonder we are always followed by hunters along the way. It turns out that the inner ghost is him!"

Liu Qiao trembled, "When I saw Guilao for the first time, I thought he looked at me a little strange. It turned out that he was a hunter! So, after he saw me, he informed the eternal kingdom. Brother Xu, let him tell my sister my whereabouts, and then they worked out this precise plan to use my sister to kill us all in the final Double Kings Chamber?"

The girl who has always been calm, her emotions are finally on the verge of collapse. She hugged her head hard, squatted on the ground, choked and said, "I'm sorry, it's my fault... When I saw my sister in the labyrinth, I should have noticed something wrong. It’s because I wasn't cautious enough, which hurt Professor Xiao..."

Shao Qingge said, "Do you say these are useful now?"

Liu Qiao was stunned. Suddenly, she seemed to have thought of something. She looked up at Shao Qingge. "Yes, Professor Xiao and Team Yu are gone. Mr. Shao, you are the new captain. You can activate the time-retracement SS team limited card. I remember this card can turn back time 5 hours, and 5 hours ago, everyone was still alive!"

When Shao Qingge heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly. Just as he was about to speak, suddenly a calm voice rang in his ear, "Don't go back in time, now is not the best time."

Everyone turned their heads together and saw that they were standing under the peach blossom tree, their clothes were scorched, but their bodies were safe, Tang Ci.
