    The child's identity has long been a mystery.

    When the red-coated girl forcefully asked Wen Shi to give her the child, most players looked at it with interest, wondering what choice Wen Shi would make.

    The shining point of human nature in the audience's comment is really ridiculous, but the players at the bottom of the ranking hope that it is true. It is best that the other party can tear their faces for this kid and the npc, so that in the new round of links, his ranking will be higher.will fall down.

    Wen Shi will not be so reckless, no matter how many cards he has, if he violates some rules in the game, he will die.

    His sight was a little erratic, but he was actually looking at the "Family's Afternoon Tea" in the function. According to the literal interpretation, after opening, the family members should be able to have a short meeting in another space door. Using this function, he can not moveSensually let the child disappear for a while.With the proud personality of the girl in the red coat, she would definitely make a fuss if the child disappeared, so she might be able to take advantage of this to turn her back.

    Ah Sang took the initiative to say at this moment: "Go, go play with big sister."

    Ah Sang's eyes are not the same as Wen Shi's, Wen Shi's pupils are lighter in color, but the child's eyes are black and white, and the pupils are dark.The lower the temperature in the mountains, the whiter his skin became, as white as snow.

    This kid is definitely not lacking the strength to even truss up a chicken, but before Wen Shi witnessed his strength with his own eyes, he was still worrying about his old father.

    "Let's go then."

    Holding the child in his arms, Wen Shi quietly gave him the communication item bought from the game store.This thing only needs 50 points, and it allows players to communicate in the dungeon, but generally, unless the dungeon is in the middle and late stages, few players use it. According to incomplete statistics, there are about 10% of dungeons, and private use of communication items is the death rule.one.

    "Call me if you have any questions." Wen Shi had already entered his player number in it.

    Ah Sang does not belong to the player, as long as he rings the bell, Wen Shi will directly unlock "Family's Afternoon Tea".

    The girl in the red coat couldn't wait to take the children away, so Wen Shi sent them a distance away.

    The girl in the red coat showed her true colors, and impatiently slammed people away: "Don't follow me."

    A Sang next to him said seriously: "Sister, I haven't given the gift yet."

    This thing must be given now, or there will be no chance to give it.

    After looking at the time door, the red-coated girl yelled at him: "There is no place for you to talk here!"

    Ah Sangding looked at the red-coated girl, and after three seconds, he activated the necessary skill for all children—crying.

    Wen Shi really wanted to be distressed, but when the child couldn't squeeze out tears, and there was still anticipation in his eyes, he really couldn't do it.He rubbed the space between his brows and said, "Then we can only ask the host to comment."

    The other players didn't receive gifts in return because they hadn't completed the requirements for matching guests, but Wen Shi handed over the children on the spot.

    There are still a lot of ceremonies to be prepared later, and there are not many good times in a day. The red-coated girl didn't want to delay because of unnecessary trivial matters, so she tore off a key to the door at her waist: "There is something in the cabinet on the door of my room that you can take away.".”

    "Okay, okay... let's go." Ah Sang was more active than the girl in the red coat, and her little hand was about to wave out afterimages, "Goodbye, Dad."

    Wen Shi watched them go away, just in case he called out the old man ghost and asked him to follow.The wandering corpse is still in a state of low IQ. Without Wen Shi's command, the ability to adapt to changes is too poor.

    He himself returned to the village with the key given by the girl in red.

    During the day, there were not many living people walking around in Fengcoffin Village. The doors of every house were closed, and the cameraman followed behind without saying a word. He took pictures of the scenery and people, focusing on capturing Wen Shi's expression.After seeing that there was no doubt on his face, he took another shot of the scenery in disappointment.

    Wen Shi had deep doubts in his heart, but he didn't show it.

    When the cameraman saw the old man walking behind the red-coated woman, he didn't give any hints, but just called a colleague to follow him.When this program group faces ghosts, it seems to be commonplace, so the question is, are the audience who are watching their program human or ghost?

    There is a distance between the house and the door between the houses, and no one comes out to move around. The wind flows back and forth unimpeded, making a whirring sound in this overly quiet village.

    A small door was opened in front of it, and a pair of lifeless eyes were peeping behind the door from a distance.

    Wen Shi stepped forward in twos and threes, and ran over like a gust of wind. Before the other party could react, he kicked the door, and a crack appeared on the unstable wooden door.

    "You like peeping so much?"

    Behind the door, the old lady fell to the ground, clutching her waist and staring angrily at the violent man in front of her.

    This face showed up in the auditorium last night. Wen Shi judged that all the people who came to watch the recording of the show were human beings, and only human beings were afraid of being drenched in corpse oil, and would open umbrellas when they left.

    Since he was a human being, he had less worries. Wen Shi rushed to the kitchen in two or three steps, and came out with a kitchen knife in his hand.Then he helped the old lady considerately, let her sit on the chair, stood aside with a knife, and asked softly: "Old man, why doesn't anyone come out in this village during the day? Also, why do you all wear clothes with the word "longevity" on them?"clothing?"

    That's all for middle-aged and old people, and children are the same. Young people should not wear clothes with the word "longevity" lightly, because folks say that this will shorten their lifespan.

    The old lady has a stubborn temper: "If you have the ability, kill me."

    Wen Shi had no skills, so he started to search the house, and was about to take away all the firewood, rice, oil and salt. The old lady was shaking with anger, and just about to get up, she was blinded by the reflection from the shiny kitchen knife.

    Cameraman: "Didn't you say you want to show the brilliance of humanity?"

    Wen Shi: "You just said that this kitchen knife is more than enough?"

    "..."

    Without food and clothing, they can only ask their neighbors to borrow them. In the past few days, except for the special situation yesterday, the villagers will not go out unless they can.

    The old lady finally compromised, her thin dry lips moved:

    "Our name is Sealing Coffin Village. Our ancestors have made coffins and shrouds for funerals. It is our custom to wear these clothes. The saying passed down by our ancestors is that black shrouds ward off evil spirits, and red shrouds..."

    Wen Shi thought of the clothes he saw in the coffin in the cemetery, and asked, "What does the red shroud represent?"

    "Wearing a red shroud will give you a life loan."

    Wen Shi frowned, which was basically the opposite of the outside world, "Shouldn't shrouds avoid dark colors?"

    The old lady smiled strangely: "Many people think that black is the same color as the underworld, and it is not easy to be seen after death. In fact, sometimes it is a good thing to be invisible."

    This seems to imply that Sealing Coffin Village is a small gate to the underworld, and the living villagers do not want to be noticed by ghosts.

    In addition, no matter how much Wen Shi threatened her, she would not say a word. She was sure that it was almost done. When Wen Shi was about to leave, he suddenly noticed the calendar hanging on the wall. Today is the 13th day of the seventh lunar month.

    His pupils tightened and he realized something: "The third day of the recording of "Crazy Love Season" happened to coincide with July 15th."

    In July and a half, the gate of ghosts opens.

    Ever since Wen Shi looked at the calendar just now, the corners of the cameraman's mouth have been grinning, and the corners of the old lady's mouth are also rising, with layers of loose skin folds piled up. They looked at Wen Shi as if they were watching a funeral at home.Tributes that need to be prepared.

    The old lady began to tidy up the messed-up house with unsteady legs.The sound of the bowls and chopsticks collided, and the old man inserted the chopsticks heavily into the incense ash and said to himself, "Come on, it's a good time for foreigners to come."

    Wen Shi suddenly had a very bad premonition, worried that this ghost door would open in Sealing Coffin Village.

    There is an unsolvable death rule in the dungeon itself: CP combinations are eliminated according to their popularity.

    If another ghost door is opened, it will simply not give the player a way out.

    For the first time, the system got rid of the mechanical sound and played it in a weird and weird tone——

    "Congratulations, you found a special clue - calendar, activate the warm reminder."

    "Attention all players, the copy "Crazy Love Season" is likely to be upgraded in two days. After this upgrade, the copy will become a permanent copy.journey of."

    "After the upgrade, the dungeon function experience details are optimized, and three special maps are added, including [Nanshan Highway Backtracking Journey] and [Dry Well Dead Soul]."

    "Attention all players, after a successful upgrade, the difficulty of the dungeon will be adjusted to 2S."

    "I wish the first batch of players a happy experience."

    "..."

    Wen Shi felt that it would be understandable if he sweared at this time.

    The camera successfully captured the change in his demeanor this time, and the cameraman said with an undiminished smile: "In order to thank the audience for their support, the program team will invite some audience members to participate in the recording in person later."

    Not watching the recording, but participating.

    Wen Shi was silent for a moment, put down the kitchen knife and walked out of the house. The sky outside was dark and oppressive, and the billowing clouds made the distance between the door between heaven and earth infinitely close, making people breathless.

    After watching for a few seconds, Wen Shi suddenly rushed back to the room and slapped the table hard: "You, hand over the umbrella!"

    Two minutes later, while the old lady was yelling at her father and mother, Wen Shi was satisfied and walked towards the red-coated girl's house with a big black umbrella.

    "Hiding at home and not going out, keeping an umbrella is a waste."

    It's much more useful in his hands.

    The cameraman, who had been waiting to catch his fearful expression, said in his heart: bandits, no, bandits!

    The mansion of the red-coated girl's family is very deserted at the moment.

    Obviously yesterday I could still see a group of people busy back and forth, Wen Shi approached Old Li who was in charge: "Your lady asked me to go to her room door to get things."

    Regardless of whether the dungeon will be upgraded or not, you have to finish the task at hand as soon as possible in order to earn more money.

    Old Li was very cooperative in leading the way.

    Wen Shizhuang seemed to mention it casually: "There are a lot of people missing in the house."

    The corner of Old Li's mouth curled up, and he said meaningfully: "They are going to help Miss."

    "Where's your master?" The red-coated woman's father may be even more powerful. If both father and daughter go, in order to ensure the safety of Ah Sang, Wen Shi will immediately activate the home function.

    "The master is getting old, and the engineering matters are all handled by the young lady."

    Wen Shi remembered Li Xiaoluo's story, and smiled mockingly: "I thought such a remote village would favor boys over girls."

    Old Li does not deny it: "It was a long time ago. Later, people's thinking changed, and they believed that boys and girls are the same. In order to better promote the economic development of the village, we also actively sent young people to study, imitating the outside world and doing repairs.road."

    The key places marked on the map, except for the cemetery in the north, are the half-built roads in the south.Wen Shi asked knowingly, "Has the road been repaired?"

    "It has only been repaired for half a year, and it encountered a landslide." Old Li sighed, "But I believe it will be repaired soon."

    Old Li led him into the third courtyard through the door of the speaking room, and came to a small room with a more secret door behind the main room: "Miss's boudoir is here."

    Wen Shi opened the door with the key given by the girl in red, and the quaint old house exuded a mixed smell of fragrance and smell.

    The cabinet door was not locked, and when it was opened, there was a pile of sundries inside: perfume, pocket knife, abacus, etc., and even a few tattered books.

    The red-coated woman only said that there was one thing, but did not specify which one it was, obviously on purpose.

    Standing behind Wen Shi, Old Li reminded quietly: "Miss hates thieves the most in her life, you can only take what she agrees to give you."

    Wen Shi stretched out his hand, trying to get away with the game's identification system.

    "Miss doesn't like other people touching her things. I'll get you whatever you want."

    There were even a few sticks of incense stuffed in the middle door of the sundries. Wen Shi took a quick look and saw at least a dozen things, placed in three layers, but he could barely see what each thing was.

    While Wen Shi was hesitating, Old Li urged a little irritably: "I still have a lot of things to do, and you only have one minute to choose the time gate."

    If you choose the wrong one, you may be treated as a thief and killed directly.

    Wen Shi squinted his eyes, carefully observing the rows of things.

    Old Li seemed to deliberately make him restless, talking non-stop: "Miss asked you to take it, you just take it as she said, hurry up, there is only half a minute left!"

    At the same time, the door was closed heavily, and the room that was originally opaque became darker for a while.Old Li bent down, and a pale face was reflected in the mirror in the cabinet. Old Li said in a chilly tone, "It's the last ten seconds."

    "I want this." Wen Shi suddenly pointed to a small bronze lamp in the shape of a wine glass, "Is this the ever-burning lamp? I want to take it away."

    The whites of Old Li's eyes increased wildly, almost covering his pupils: "Are you sure? What do you want a lamp for?"

    This time it was Wen Shi's turn to urge him: "Yes, hurry up."

    Old Li's face returned to normal little by little, mixed with deep regret, and helped him take out the requested items.

    When Wen Shi's hand touched the instant door on the lamp wall, the identification of the game automatically popped up in his mind.

    "Eternal lamp: Have you heard the story of lighting the sky lantern? The smell emitted when the lamp burns may help you blind some things. Note that this lamp can only be used in this copy."

    When studying history, Wen Shi had seen stories about lighting sky lanterns with corpse oil. This kind of torture had been inflicted on emperors and innocent people.

    Ah Mang said that the rainwater in Sealing Coffin Village is corpse oil, and collecting rainwater should be able to light up this lamp. This is currently the only item that can be related to Sealing Coffin Village.

    Wen Shi put away the lights and returned to the program recording location.

    He was the first to arrive, and the host kept talking, introducing the original scenery to the camera, ensuring that no matter which camera the audience switched to, they would not be left alone.The host was talking happily alone, and he seemed to really love this job.

    "Come and join us! Experience a colorful journey of love together!"

    After knowing what happened in July and a half, listening to these words really makes people shudder.

    After Wen Shi, Liu Yun was the second to come back.

    Her entire arm showed excessive varicose veins, but overall she was not seriously injured.

    Liu Yun didn't look at the paired guests again, walked to Wen Shi's side, and leaned against the mountain wall as if exhausted: "During the worship, I burned a paper and was almost pulled into the coffin." After a pause, she suddenly said: "There is still an empty coffin with a lot of undried blood around it."

    "That's right, it's mine." Wen Shi's blood-stained shirt is the best proof.

    Liu Yun really admired him a little bit. Although he didn't know what the other party had to rely on, but he was able to go through such a cruel hand and stabbed himself as a sieve. He probably couldn't find a second player in the game.

    "Did you find anything?" Wen Shi asked her.

    "When the corpse was fraudulent, he said something. He died in a landslide during road construction. It is said that there were two different views at that time. The young people who went to school outside thought that it would be fine to repair it. The older generation of Sealing Coffin VillageThe villagers felt that they had to use the old method."

    Fraud?

    Wen Shi seemed to have gotten a new usage of the corpse deception skill, and asked, "What's the old way?"

    "Putting piles." Liu Yun said coldly: "When some people are working on projects, they will bury boys and girls alive or fill them with cement to sacrifice to the gods."

    The impatient look of the red-coated woman appeared in Wen Shi's mind, and his face sank.

    "The young people were eager for success, and they decided to build the road regardless of the season and weather. As a result, there was a landslide during the rainy season, and many people died. The village said it was a punishment from the gods. Later, these young people believed it..”

    Sealing Coffin Village is an extremely feudal place, but with the change of time gate, it has tried to integrate with the outside civilization. Under the impact of fierce conflicts, most of the villagers still cannot abandon the old thoughts in their bones.

    "By the way," before Liu Yun spoke, a layer of goosebumps appeared on his bruised arms, "Just now the notification said that the dungeon might have to be upgraded in the next two days."

    Wen Shi lowered his voice: "I saw in the calendar of the villager's house that it will be July and a half in two days."

    Liu Yun's eyes widened suddenly, and when he wanted to confirm again, Ji Yuanzhi just came back, the three of them got together, and Wen Shi brought up the ghost gate again.

    Ji Yuanzhi was not too surprised: "Sealing Coffin Village is full of yin energy beyond imagination, and the frequency of ghosts' activities during the day is very high."

    It is absolutely abnormal to put it in any copy.

    Almost all the players came back within the next ten minutes. The death rate in this session was far lower than in the first game. The only one who didn't come back was the girl in red.

    Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. Up until now, the first pairing guest was gone.

    The host knew where the child was taken and what kind of ceremony was to be performed, which would inevitably delay some time, so he continued to wait with a smile on his face.

    On the other hand, Wen Shi was not in a hurry, the old man was very clever, if there was any danger, he would have withdrawn long ago, and the delay in reporting the news showed that Ah Sang's safety was guaranteed.

    ...

    Nanshan, before half of the road was built.

    The red-coated woman and a group of project workers were frantically fleeing for their lives, and the cameraman following them didn't know what to do. Finally, they mechanically used a drone to shoot, and stood in place with weak legs.

    None of the people present were human. It was early in the morning when the red-coated woman was crushed to death by rocks. It had only rained that day, and it was very cold in the early morning. She was wrapped in a jacket to supervise the road construction, but she encountered a landslide.Blood and flesh mud dyed this dress again, and after the red-coated girl turned into a monster, the red coat was filled with her endless resentment and hatred, constantly absorbing the flesh and blood of those young lives, trying to borrow her life to stay in the world forever.

    But just today, this invincible red jacket encountered Waterloo.

    First, the piling failed. When the child was buried alive, he directly broke the worker's shovel, and then the red jacket flew out to cover him. The child could not avoid it, but the red jacket couldn't survive.

    After sensing the abnormality, the red-coated woman ran for her life resolutely.She kept turning her head to see if she was being chased, and the next moment a black shadow flashed above her head, and a child with no blood on her face stood in front of her, "Big sister, I'm here."

    What kind of little monster is this?!

    "Die!" The red-coated woman gritted her teeth, trying to get rid of his entanglement.

    The speed of the two sides is not at the same level, those thin legs can easily climb and jump, and in the blink of an eye of the red-coated girl, the child has already jumped on her shoulders.

    The red-coated girl's sharp nails tried to strangle the other party's neck, and she kept cursing, "Go away, you little bastard."

    Ah Sang's eyes were bottomless.

    He slapped his tiny palm on Tianling Gai, and the remnant soul, resentment, and hatred were all concentrated here, condensing into a small crystal.Ah Sang tapped it lightly with the bowl again, and the solid skull was smashed through, and the almost ossified brain and blood slowly flowed down.

    Ah Sang took out the crystal expressionlessly and absorbed it directly.The brutal scene frightened several workers to the ground, but even so, they continued to climb forward desperately.

    The red-coated girl stood there blankly, her bright red jacket gradually faded, and after a while, her whole body fell heavily backwards.

    Ah Sang never wastes a grain of food. On the deep and narrow mountain road, he began to hunt like a ghost.The small broken bowl in Ah Sang's hand is comparable to the strongest hammer in the world, and the monster's head was pried open by him like a watermelon, and the rancid and black juice flowed turbulently. The only soul and resentment that did not deteriorate became the most perfectrations.

    ...

    When Ah Sang was frantically showing off, a group of players were still at the gate of the mountain, waiting for the return of the red-coated girl.

    Liu Yun thought about the story of the life-hitting pile, and asked worriedly, "Is the child going to be okay?"

    That child looked complicated, but the red-coated girl looked even scarier.

    The host reckoned that the time gate for the ceremony was about to be completed, so he called the cameraman following the film, but no one answered the phone.

    The girl in the red coat didn't come back at the stipulated time, so it was self-evident who was unlucky.Wen Shi didn't want the program team to go into the mountains to look for it right now, so he pretended to be sad: "Why haven't you come back? Is something wrong? My poor child..."

    One sentence successfully attracted the attention of the host, and he came over to interview him with a smile: "Some viewers said before that they saw the brilliance of humanity in you. Mr. Aaron, you are so human, why did you give your child as a gift so easily?other people?"

    Wen Shi covered half of the pain mask with his hand.

    Seeing this, the host became even more excited: "Friends in the audience, I don't know if what we are seeing now is the confession of a father, or the crocodile tears of a hypocritical soul."

    He originally wanted to read a few comments from the audience, but unexpectedly found that the number of comments from the audience had dropped sharply since ten minutes ago. Not only that, but the number of people who signed up to participate in the co-recording was also on a downward trend.

    "?"

    "!"

    Almost all such consecutive symbols.

    The host's question hadn't arisen yet, but was interrupted by Wen Shi's sad whisper: "My child, he's still so young..."

    With slightly trembling shoulders and hanging hair, anyone can feel his sadness.

    The host gloated: "Don't worry too much, maybe you just got lost."

    Ji Yuanzhi patted Wen Shi's shoulder to comfort him, his eyes under the lens flashed, "Stop pretending."

    Who doesn't know, Doctor Cat bleeds but not tears.

    "This is an S-level dungeon," Wen Shi said with tears in his eyes, "You don't understand, mother who travels thousands of miles... Bah, father is worried."

    The superb acting skills did not fool Ji Yuanzhi, but made Liu Yun feel compassion, "That's right, an S-level dungeon, a child..."

    Before he finished speaking, the system's cold notification sounded suddenly——

    "Attention all players, attention all players—"

    "Due to the collective death of 14 key npcs, Nanshan Highway was officially classified as a safe area. In addition, because a key npc's soul was overthrown, the map of the dry well was reduced to a class C dangerous area, and the upgrade of the copy "Crazy Love Season" failed."

    Wen Shi had previously handed over the location of Li Xiaoluo's body to Ji Yuanzhi, obviously the other party overfulfilled the task.

    "From now on, the difficulty of this dungeon will be adjusted from S to A+."

    In just a few sentences, every word seemed to be announced through gnashing of teeth.

    "..." Difficulty decreased?

    Wen Shi was so frightened that he almost shed a crocodile tear.

    My treasure, are you so promising?!
