    Asianovel

    The world's first crowdsourcing-driven asian bl novel translation community

    The blade plunged into Li Gui's heart, and instantly exploded in the bullet screen.

    "?????"

    "What's the situation? The ghost's attack has been nullified?"

    "This is... a skill?"

    "So, this group of people passed the level without injury?!"

    In the void, the clown-like pixel villain snorted secretly, and his face was not very good-looking.

    From Jifenglin opening the curtains to Baishuangxing using the "Guardian Spirit", everything happened too fast.

    It was so fast that it didn't notice at all, since when did these two people discuss with each other.

    In all fairness, it is absolutely impossible to completely entrust the hope of one's own survival to another person.

    Even if Bai Shuangxing hesitated for a second, the long knife condensed from the resentment would surely penetrate the boy's chest.

    But without any hesitation, he turned around and did it.

    Bai Shuangxing's guess was correct, Li Gui's soul was divided into several parts and hid behind each of them.

    As long as one of them is injured by the exorcism knife, the rest of the souls will also be affected and scattered.

    In short, they made it through.

    There were no casualties.

    The white light of the "Guardian Spirit" dissipated, and when Ji Feng was behind him, the evil spirits also disappeared.

    Bai Shuangxing let out a sigh of relief, and a system notification sounded in his ears.

    "Ding dong!"

    "Congratulations to the challengers who successfully found out the truth and solved the mystery of the second phone call!"

    "Three climbers were killed one by one in the villa, because they turned their backs to the mirror and awakened the ghost hiding behind them."

    "Malicious ghosts have been with them back to back."

    "I'm about to return to the studio hall, please wait..."

    "us……"

    Watching the ghost shadow dissipate, Jiang Caiyun choked up, tears rolling down his eyes: "We survived?"

    After the male protagonist disappeared, the other vengeful spirits in the villa got their revenge and fled away.

    In just a few seconds, the bedroom, which was originally full of murderous intentions, returned to silence.

    Zeng Xu stood beside her, panting heavily.

    When Shen Chan heard the words, she hesitated to speak.

    In that phone call, Jiang Caiyun's dying cries were still in my ears.

    She knew in her heart that standing in front of her were nothing but two consciousnesses trapped in the white night.

    They lost their lives a long time ago.

    "This place is too evil, let's leave as soon as possible after the day's mission time is over."

    Zeng Xu wiped off the cold sweat on his head: "I'm going to see Li Ziyan's body. Anyway... I have to take him back."

    Just as he finished speaking, he was about to turn around and leave when suddenly, a white light flashed in front of his eyes.

    When Bai Shuangxing raised her eyes again, she, Shen Chan and Ji Fenglin returned to the scene of "Death Survival Hotline".

    "It's a wonderful live broadcast of exploration!"

    The octopus monster who claimed to be Teacher Little Ke jumped on the spot, with a look of surprise: "Very good, very good, you performed so well on the first day of work, you have great potential."

    Contrary to its attitude, in the bullet screen, it seems that there are already complaints.

    "Is there a mistake? After a mission, no one died?"

    "boring!"

    "Hurry up next time! It's going to be much more difficult!"

    "The hosts this time are a bit interesting, much better than the previous ones. I really look forward to the scene of them dying!"

    His eyes fell on the last sentence, Bai Shuangxing remained silent.

    "Those hosts before"...

    Sure enough, surveillance system No. 444 has already killed many people in the form of a live show.

    "System, ask questions."

    Shen Chan said: "We brought Jiang Caiyun and the others through Bai Ye... Will it affect their past?"

    "Huh? Influence on their past?"

    In the void, the clown jumped up, shaking the red ball on his nose.

    "I'm really sorry, it seems that our host has not yet understood the meaning of off-site live broadcast."

    444 grinned maliciously.

    "Everything you experienced in the off-site live broadcast is not a 'white night' in the true sense, but a memory of the help-seeker."

    It said: "It's just a memory, how can it change reality?"

    Bai Shuangxing was also listening to this passage seriously, with a slightly gloomy expression.

    She cut to the chase and asked directly: "In your white night, how many challenger souls were imprisoned?"

    "this problem"

    The clown rolled his eyes.

    Bai Shuangxing didn't think it would tell the truth, but unexpectedly, the other party rolled his eyes and smiled.

    "It should be a lot."

    No. 444 of the monitoring system said in a relaxed tone: "There must be hundreds of them. After all, my White Night has played many, many games-ah, do you want to be one of them? Staying in my White Night is a very good experienceOh."

    The clown said, giggling loudly.

    Ji Fenglin looked at it with cold eyes.

    In other words, hundreds of thousands of people died because of it.

    After being tortured to death in the white night, the victims could not even go to another world, but were trapped here, repeating the pain and death over and over again.

    To change all this...

    Perhaps, destroying Bai Ye is the only way.

    "Okay! Let me see the call from the audience!"

    Teacher Little Ke twisted her tentacles and blinked her dense eyes at the same time: "Because the host performed very well this round, the audience's enthusiasm has greatly increased, and the program team has received several calls."

    "Ok……"

    After sifting through the incoming call records, the octopus monster smiled and said, "Just this one!"

    It has a brisk tail, and when it sounds long, it brings a series of harsh phone ringtones.

    Jingle Bell!

    Bai Shuangxing calmed down and picked up the receiver in front of him: "Hello."

    "You, hello."

    On the other end of the phone, there was a middle-aged man's voice: "Is it "Death Survival Hotline"?"

    He choked up and took a deep breath: "I want...I want to ask for help."

    The man's voice was suppressed as much as possible, Bai Shuangxing tried his best to distinguish the words he spit out, and responded patiently:

    "What happened to you?"

    "Is such that."

    His voice was even smaller, almost inaudible: "My girlfriend and I are both folklorists, and we recently collected folk culture in the mountains of the Northwest."

    Bai Shuang said "hmm".

    As we all know, the three high-risk occupations in horror works are teachers, journalists and folklorists.

    "Just, just two days ago, we accidentally discovered an isolated village. It was very late at that time, so we decided to go in and spend the night, and inquire about the local characteristic culture by the way."

    Speaking of this, there was a cry in his words.

    "We shouldn't have gone at all... we shouldn't have gone!"

    The man said: "When I entered the village, my first impression was depression. The villagers all wore white and gray coats and walked on the road without talking. It was very strange."

    Bai Shuangxing nodded slightly: "And then?"

    "We didn't think too much about it at the time, we just thought they might be tired after a day's work."

    The man trembled: "Unexpectedly, after seeing us, they were very enthusiastic - can you imagine? Suddenly, everyone had smiles on their faces, like painted dummies."

    Shen Chan on the side said: "You don't think it's wrong?"

    "We're just being hospitable."

    There was strong regret in the man's tone: "The village chief came forward and gave us his house and let us sleep in the guest room. That night... a strange thing happened."

    Hearing the key point, Bai Shuang went to concentrate.

    "My girlfriend and I finished dinner at the village head's house, went out for a walk together, and passed a house halfway through."

    The man said: "In the yard of that family, there is a wooden board. On the wooden board... is a person covered with a white cloth, whose outline can be vaguely seen!"

    "White cloth?"

    Ji Fenglin: "Is that person dead?"

    "Dead. Around his body, there are still a few white chrysanthemums."

    The man took a deep breath: "The owner saw us and explained that it is a unique funeral custom in their village - on the first day after a person dies, the corpse must be placed in the yard to accept God's guidance."

    Bai Shuangxing blurted out: "God?"

    In the last mission, the reason why the host of the villa killed his whole family was because he believed in evil gods.

    This call...

    "Yes, God."

    Thinking of the terrible thing, the man trembled even more: "The owner said that it is a god worshiped by the whole village. It has no name and no reason, but as long as you believe in him, you can get supreme blessings."

    Ji Fenglin's heart moved, and Bai Shuangxing looked at each other silently.

    "Is this a nameless god?"

    Bai Shuangxing said, "Is there a statue of him in the village?"

    "have."

    The man replied: "In the ancestral hall in the center of the village, my girlfriend and I went to see it once, and it was covered with a red cloth to prevent people from removing it."

    As a qualified folklorist, he has absolute professional ethics. Even if he is curious in his heart, he will never break other people's rules.

    No name, covered with a red cloth.

    Obviously evil god.

    ——The trigger medium for this white night was the statue of the evil god that the old lady threw into the living room.

    Perhaps because of this, in Bai Ye, every task is directly related to him.

    In the end...will they face the power of the evil god?

    Bai Shuangxing asked in a deep voice, "What happened next?"

    "In this village, everyone is abnormal."

    The man spoke faster: "They have unimaginable belief in 'gods', and their devotion is unimaginable. What's even more frightening is that when we walked around the village, we saw people covered with white cloth in six yards.dead body!"

    The owner of the house told them that the deceased would be placed in the courtyard only on the first day of their death.

    In other words...in the same day, six people died in this village.

    "In a normal village, how could so many people have accidents in one day? Obviously illogical."

    The man gritted his teeth: "We realized something was wrong at the time, and wanted to leave the village as soon as possible. But it was too late, the mountain was pitch-dark, and there were wild beasts infesting. We have nowhere to go except that village."

    He said in a hoarse voice, "So...we went back to the village chief's house, thinking that we'll be fine if we only stay for one night."

    Bai Shuangxing listened quietly.

    "did not expect"

    On the phone, there was a painful sob: "When I woke up the next day, everything changed."

    "It rained suddenly in the middle of the night, and the mudslide happened to block the two exits from the village."

    The man said: "On the old locust tree at the entrance of the village, we saw a hanged corpse with a pale face and bloody tears in his eyes...it was the son of the village chief."

    The son of the village chief?

    Bai Shuangxing thought secretly.

    These villagers believe in the evil god very devoutly. As long as they offer sacrifices, they can get the protection of the evil god.

    Why did so many people die in just two days?

    wait.

    ... offerings.

    The evil gods feed on human flesh and fear. Where did they get their sacrifices from?

    In other words, who did these seemingly enthusiastic and harmless villagers use as sacrifices?

    "We were scared to death, but those villagers acted... How should I put it, although there are surprises and fears on their faces, it feels like a show."

    The man said, "The road was blocked and we had to stay in the village, and it wasn't long before—"

    His teeth began to chatter: "My girlfriend and I saw a ghost."

    Shen Chan's eyebrows twitched: "What kind of ghost?"

    "Many, there are men and women, and the ages are different. They look scary and are covered in blood."

    The man said: "Sometimes they stand in the shadows and stare at us; sometimes they kill the villagers in front of us."

    Ji Fenglin pushed the boat along, trying to ask for more detailed information:

    "How do they kill?"

    "Strangle their necks, pierce their hearts with their hands, and push their heads into the pool..."

    The man cried more intensely: "Not long ago, my girlfriend also disappeared."

    Bai Shuangxing frowned: "Haven't you been together all the time?"

    "The village has become like this. We dare not go out anymore, so we decided to go back to the guest room of the village chief's house and hide."

    The man whimpered: "I went to knock on the door, but she stood behind me, and turned around—"

    When turned around, she was gone.

    "I'm at the village chief's house right now."

    The man said: "There is no signal in the mountain village, and I can't get through the phone. I don't know why, but I can only contact you. Listen to me! I am in the northwest, Qi'an Mountain in Daxing City. Please, call the police for me!"

    Speaking of this, his tone became more urgent: "I already feel that something is coming soon... Help me, help me!"

    It was followed by a short, sharp cry.

    And the muffled sound of the phone falling to the ground.

    The call ended here, and after a second, there was only a beeping busy tone on the receiver.

    "this is……"

    Shen Chan frowned: "A village where all the people believe in evil gods?"

    "The evil god feeds on human flesh and blood."

    Ji Fenglin nodded: "Do you still remember? He said that when he first entered the village, the villagers were very warm to them—too warm."

    We are all strangers who met by chance. There is no need for the villagers to have such a big reaction when they see them.

    Unless, they work.

    Bai Shuangxing understood what he meant: "These villagers are weird. Perhaps, they intend to use two folklorists as sacrifices to the 'gods'."

    "Then how do you explain that the villagers died one by one?"

    Shen Chan thought for a while: "Because I haven't had time to offer sacrifices, did you offend the evil god?"

    "It's a possibility."

    Bai Shuangxing leaned back in his chair lightly, and said softly, "However... if the evil god slaughtered wantonly and regarded human life as nothing, I don't think the villagers would be so devout to him."

    What's more, in the middle-aged man's description, it wasn't evil gods who killed the villagers, but fierce ghosts.

    "This village has believed in evil gods for many years, and if they want to be protected by him all the time—"

    Bai Shuangxing said: "You must continue to offer sacrifices."

    She paused, and quickly cleared her mind: "The man on the phone said that the ghosts would 'kill people in front of them', and the villagers would die directly instead of 'disappearing'."

    Shen Chan came to a sudden: "So the disappearance of his girlfriend has nothing to do with Li Gui... but was taken by the villagers as a sacrifice!"

    Later, he had an accident, which should be the same reason.

    "Ok."

    Bai Shuangxing nodded: "From the beginning to the end, Li Gui didn't hurt them, but only attacked the villagers. Just imagine, who would hate the believers in the village so much?"

    Ji Fenglin quickly replied: "They were used as sacrifices and offered to the victims of evil gods."

    That's why when men saw fierce ghosts, they looked extremely miserable, soaked in blood.

    This is the tragedy of being sacrificed.

    "..."

    "..."

    "???"

    Between their conversations, a series of question marks floated across the barrage.

    "It's launched? They haven't entered the copy yet!"

    "So what if you push it out? The logic is not complicated. The damned person will die sooner or later."

    "In this mission, Li Gui is not the one who threatens them the most. Li Gui's target of revenge is only the villagers."

    In the void, the pixel clown rubbed his temples.

    It didn't expect that this group of people would guess Li Gui's identity with just a few words.

    However, it is not a big problem.

    Unlike the last call, the mission logic this time is very simple, reasoning and solving puzzles are not important.

    The real crisis lies in...

    They have to face the killing intent of the whole village.

    In reality, all the villagers are ordinary people, and they can't make too much trouble.

    However, here is White Night.

    The malice belonging to the villagers combined with the powerful power of the evil god, and terrifying monsters will be born.

    Baishuang walks them, and is the prey to be slaughtered.

    Thinking of this, the pixel clown raised the corners of his mouth.

    If the last mission focused on "horror", then this time, it was a vigorous escape.

    With only a few humans, it is impossible to defeat the entire village of believers.

    When the task came to an end, this group of ignorant humans were sent to the altar of the gods and became His food tonight...

    The scene at that time must make him feel happy and happy.

    It can't wait.

    "It's another confusing call!"

    Teacher Little Ke twisted her body left and right, blinking her eyes vigorously like the usual mascots in other variety shows.

    It's a pity that the same action is made by it, which only makes people feel creepy and disgusting.

    "Although it is very dangerous, I believe that the hosts will be able to find out the truth smoothly with their excellent skills!"

    "Ding dong!"

    The system prompt sounds.

    "The main mission has been updated!"

    "Mission Three: Visitors from the Deep Mountains"

    "In the isolated village, strange things are happening. Wandering ghosts, dead villagers, companions who disappeared for no reason——"

    "All the puzzles seem to be related to him."

    "Exterior filming is about to start! Hosts, please get ready!"

    "This task: stay in the village until the next day, find out the whereabouts of the help-seeker's girlfriend, and successfully leave the village!"

    There was a trance in front of my eyes.

    The white light slowly gathers, condensing the rolling mountains in the distance, and the nearby houses.

    Bai Shuang raised his head and looked around.

    She was standing at the end of a small road, which seemed to be the entrance to the village.

    There was nothing around me, no one else.

    ... Everyone dispersed?

    She remembered that the middle-aged man who called for help had said that there were two exits from the village.

    After sorting out his thoughts, Bai Shuangxing took a look at his attire.

    Nothing changed, indicating that they were not assigned a specific role in this mission.

    The village in front of her was much more beautiful than she had imagined.

    Surrounded by green mountains and green waters in all directions, clusters of wild flowers grow at the entrance of the village, colorful, like the bright morning glow in bloom.

    A clear stream passes by the side of the village, and the green willows on both sides are gently blowing, spreading out layers of greenery.

    It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a paradise.

    It is difficult for ordinary people to imagine that in such a village, rituals using flesh and blood as sacrifices are actually held.

    "Are you separated? It's pitiful to be alone here alone. Hee hee."

    "After much deliberation, I decided to watch her live broadcast—how many brothers and sisters are here? Come out and say something."

    "Me, me, me! The ghost's hiding place in the villa is what she came up with. It should be more interesting to watch her filming on location."

    Bai Shuangxing glanced at the barrage and raised his eyebrows slightly.

    After they dispersed, the live broadcast screen was also cut.

    As spectators, the ghosts seemed to only be able to see one side of the scene.

    "what?"

    Not far away, an unfamiliar female voice came: "Are you—?"

    Bai Shuangxing followed the sound and saw a young woman.

    Just like what she said on the phone, she was wearing a very simple white gown, without any decorations on her body.

    From a distance, it looks like a pale ghost.

    Staring at the scene in front of him, Pixel Clown narrowed his eyes and smiled.

    Finally started.

    In this village shrouded in the power of gods, all of them will become lambs to be slaughtered.

    From this moment on, death is doomed.

    It looked leisurely, looked at Bai Shuangxing and showed a smile, and slowly opened its thin lips——

    "Hello."

    Bai Shuangxing's tone was polite and gentle.

    After a pause, she spoke again, her eyebrows and eyes curved:

    "Is this the village that was attacked by ghosts? I have received a revelation from the gods and come to assist you."

    Surveillance System No. 444: ...?

    Barrage:……?

    With just one sentence, the real-time comments of blockbuster movies fell silent in an instant.

    Immediately afterwards, there are overwhelming question marks.

    "what?????"

    "What's the situation? What is she talking about? I know every word, but the combination of...what the hell?"

    "grass (referring to a plant)"

    "?????"

    The woman was also taken aback.

    "A revelation from the gods..."

    She is not stupid, showing a bit of vigilance: "Are you sure?"

    "Your village's pious belief in Him is seen by God."

    Bai Shuangxing's tone was the same as usual, and he smiled softly: "God told me that you are being trapped by fierce ghosts, let me think... In just one day, six people died, right?"

    The woman's expression changed suddenly.

    Bai Shuangxing is a completely new face, she is sure that the other party has never entered the village before.

    But she was so familiar with the changes in the village that she even said that the number of dead people was not bad.

    Could it be...

    "Still don't believe it?"

    Bai Shuang raised his eyebrows: "Our god was born in the land of chaos. If we want to obtain His protection, we must use living people as bait—"

    Her voice was soft, but with unquestionable determination.

    It's the confidence to know everything.

    The gods feed on humans, which is a secret known only to believers.

    The woman looked at her, and the doubts in her eyes gradually disappeared, leaving only shallow hesitation: "Then you are... a prophet who can communicate with gods?"

    Ever since the white night came, she had heard that some believers could see gods in their dreams and receive his guidance.

    Monitoring System No. 444: ...

    It never expected that Baishuangxing would use the content of that phone call to pretend that he was inspired by the evil god——

    Recently, many people have indeed dreamed of Him, and this is a fact that all believers know.

    Moreover, because he had confronted the evil god face to face and received the assistance of the Investigation Bureau, Bai Shuangxing knew many inside stories that only believers knew.

    The right time, the right place, and the right people are all perfectly matched.

    Played by her like this...

    The villagers all regard her as a teammate. When the time comes to escape, won't she be able to sit safely in the house?!

    Maybe, by virtue of his status as a "prophet", he can enjoy the offerings sent by the believers.

    His heart choked for a moment, and the corners of the pixel villain's mouth twitched slightly.

    This development, is it justified?

    "?????"

    "I don't understand it, but I'm shocked."

    "It's beyond my imagination... That's how the phone should be used?"

    "prophet?"

    Bai Shuangxing blinked, but his smile remained unchanged: "It's just a dream, I can't bear this kind of honor."

    As she spoke, she nodded slightly: "Believe in my lord, my god is merciful."

    The woman's eyes suddenly brightened: "My God is merciful!"

    "My God is merciful... Why do these words sound familiar?"

    "It's the original words in the diary of the hostess in the villa! She moved here intact!!!"

    "Remember, the male host is also a loyal believer of the evil god... Is this the legendary 'make the best use of everything'..."

    "Is this the slogan used by believers when they pray? After hearing this sentence, it is even more impossible for the villagers to doubt her!"

    "According to God's instructions, your village is facing a crisis."

    Bai Shuangxing said: "Maybe I can do my best... At the entrance of the village on the other side, I have already attracted several sacrifices."

    "Grass."

    "It's okay to sell teammates directly."

    "This is a wise approach. The people on the other side must only say that they are lost tourists, which does not match her 'prophet'. It will be strange if they are forced to say that they are companions."

    "Hmm... And speaking of it this way, the villagers' trust in her is already full."

    "yes?"

    Sure enough, the woman was overjoyed: "Thank God...thank you the prophet!"

    Bai Shuangxing is very good, and she raised her lips and smiled: "They are all the people of God, so what is there to thank for that. I am going to close the Internet cafe."

    At the same time, on the other side of the village.

    Walking on the small road in the village, Shen Chan was a little worried: "I don't know what's going on with Shuangshuang... This place is so weird."

    It seems to be a paradise, but in fact it is gloomy and makes people feel uncomfortable.

    Ji Fenglin: "She should have been teleported to another village entrance, and she will join us soon."

    As he spoke, he raised his eyelids and looked at the other two beside him.

    It was the folklorist who called for help, and his girlfriend.

    In the current timeline, they have not yet encountered the next series of weird events, and they are full of longing, hoping to search for more folk customs in the village.

    He and Shen Chan, under the name of "mountain climbers", walked with the couple all the way.

    "strangeness."

    The atmosphere in the village was not normal, Shen Chan sensed something was wrong: "The villagers...why did they all go out all of a sudden?"

    And, not to meet them.

    Contrary to the "enthusiasm" mentioned on the phone, without knowing what happened, the villagers opened the gates one after another and walked quickly towards the other side of the village.

    Exactly the opposite direction to them.

    "To be honest, in our village, there is a god enshrined."

    The village chief who received them rubbed his hands, and a strange and fanatical light overflowed from his cloudy eyes: "Just today... a prophet who was inspired by the gods came here!"

    ……prophet?

    Shen Chan was taken aback.

    There is no such paragraph on the phone?

    Ji Fenglin was slightly stunned, his eyes moved as he vaguely realized something.

    The audience on their side were all dumbfounded.

    "Prophet? What prophet?"

    "A character that pops up suddenly? It shouldn't be! Isn't this against the plot?"

    "The prophet of the evil god... I'm so looking forward to it, he must be a ruthless, viper-hearted bad guy, a big boss who leads all the conspiracies and schemes behind the scenes! These hosts are finished!"

    "Look, look! There is a man over there, surrounded by villagers!"

    "As expected of believers...Looking at their reactions, they are so fanatical."

    Just as the barrage said, a figure walked slowly on the other side of the path.

    But... Looking at the figure, why is there an inexplicable familiarity?

    Slender and slender, with fair skin.

    There was a wind blowing over the man's long jet black hair, and then the beautiful water hyacinth eyes that were slightly raised.

    Seeing the other party's appearance clearly, Shen Chan was stunned.

    The barrage in my mind is also frantically swiping the screen.

    "?????"

    "Is this face the one I think of?"

    "Laughing, I just came from the live broadcast next door. I can only say that it was unexpected and wonderful."

    "What kind of plot is this? Can it still be assigned to the village camp? Confrontation???"

    "Help hahahahahaha, I witnessed the whole process next door, hahahahahahaha. It's not that I was assigned to the village camp, but the plot completely collapsed!"

    "Look, everyone!"

    The village head's smile deepened, only devout respect remained in his eyes, and he looked at the figure not far away: "That one is the prophet sent by the gods for us!"

    Wherever he looked, he was surrounded by villagers——

    Hoarfrost?!

    In her hands, there are also piles of various fruits and vegetables, as well as small gifts from believers.

    Very leisurely, very happy.

    The same identity was also sent to the hell opening at the entrance of the village.

    While the teammates were honestly following the plot, some of them had already become the highest-ranking bosses in the enemy camp.

    444: ...

    The plot collapsed, like a runaway wild horse, with many killing plots it imagined, gone forever.

    It's a little confused.
