Chapter 253 Survival Game Escape Guide (23)

"This task is not that simple. I suspect that even if the game is released, accidents may happen to several people."

"What do you mean?"

"Judging from the way this game is entered, it is related to the promotional video of the game, but the problem is where did this promotional video come from. The original owner did not make a promotional video. The existence of a promotional video can only prove that someone is behind it all. The question is, what is the purpose of that person?"

Qin Fen pondered for a moment, the purpose?

Create panic?Or use the game to harm people?Or, just want to promote the game...

Qin Fen thought about several reasons, but felt that something was wrong.

"It's not just us who entered this game, there are other people. Six people pass a level, which means that other players are also clearing the level at this time. Those who successfully pass the level will tell the way to clear the game after they go out, then the game will be completed. It would be so easy."

That's right, if that's the case, it's obvious that the purpose of manipulating all of this is gone, and for the manipulator behind it, it has already failed, so, in order to succeed, maybe the only thing facing the game is death.

The three were lost in thought.

The atmosphere suddenly became quiet. After a long time, Qin Fen raised her head and said, "Then what should I do?"

The left and right have come, it is better to find out the people behind the scenes, so that more people will not be victimized.

"Let Midoru stay by your side to protect you, you guys find a way to take the game off the shelves, and I'll check the rest..."

As Lin Sheng said, he added more firewood to the fire, and the light of the fire reflected on his face, which looked strange.

The fire continued to burn until four or five o'clock in the morning. Qin Fen protected the burning firewood all the way, and Lin Sheng came to the crop field, found a haystack that hadn't been cleared in time, and threw the torch on the haystack.

This kind of haystacks are often used by villagers as materials for heating kangs. Because they are relatively large and inconvenient to transport, they are all piled up in the crop field and transported as much as they use.

The fire burned quickly. When the NPCs in the village saw the thick smoke, they rushed over with water. Qin Fen watched the movements of each NPC, looking for the person who was most likely the village chief.

But after looking for a long time, there was no suspicious person. Qin Fen glanced to the side, and suddenly saw an inconspicuous place. The old man was leaning on a cane, looking at the raging fire.

The face is calm, without anxiety and anger.

It seems that this cropland has nothing to do with him.

Qin Fen and Lin Sheng walked up to the old man, looked up at the two, and grinned.

"Old man, we all set fires, and the villagers didn't say a word to us. Why?"

The old man didn't speak, just smiled.

"Actually, there is no village chief in this village, Grandpa Huaishu."

Qin Fen stared at the old man's face and said word by word.

"From the very beginning, you have been implying us that the village chiefs are good people who love the people and the village very much, so I guess, the purpose of our customs clearance is to find the village chief, but we just saw it, put out the fire The actions of the villagers were spontaneous, and no one was directing them, and no villagers had ever talked with others, so there is no village chief in the current village..."

"And you are the old locust tree on the mountain behind the village!"

Qin Fen's tone was affirmative, without any hesitation, as if what she said was not her conjecture, but a fact.

The old man's eyes narrowed into a thin line and he nodded to Qin Fen: "Yes, there has been no village chief in the village for a long time because a selfish village chief appeared here more than ten years ago..."

Leaning on crutches, the old man nodded: "Follow me..."

The old man brought Qin Fen and Lin Sheng back under the old locust tree. The other three were sitting by the fire and waiting. When they saw the two coming back with the old man, they all stood up and looked at the old man cautiously.

"Your ideas are not wrong. There are three gates of life. The first gate of life is to find the village chief in the village, that is, there is no village chief. The second gate of life is to find the gate of another world. The third gate of life is in the small house I planted a locust tree in my yard..."

The old man said, with a look of disappointment on his face. What he wanted most of them to leave was the third life gate, so he kept hinting at them about the locust tree, but in the end, they didn't find this way of life.

Hearing that there were three ways to survive, everyone, including Qin Fen, was astonished. They had never thought about this issue.

But thinking about it carefully, Bai Ying was originally suppressed by the locust tree, so it was reasonable to plant locust trees in the yard as a way of life.

Seeing the old man's disappointed expression, Qin Fen wondered, "Could it be that people in the village can't plant pagoda trees?"

Qin Fen's question made the old man's eyes light up again: "If ordinary people can do it, this village is no longer the pagoda tree village it used to be."

"What do you mean?"

"That night, it rained heavily..."

Ten years ago, one night, lightning and thunder, strong wind and heavy rain came at the same time. The lightning struck the locust tree planted next to the small house, and the locust tree was cut off from it, breaking the formation that suppressed Bai Ying. Ying escaped and continued to make trouble.

During the day, the village chief heard the news and came. According to the suggestion of the old man in the village, it would be fine to plant another tree. However, the village chief did not believe in evil and said that planting trees on this road would be too eye-catching, so he directly planted a locust tree. The tree was dug up to the roots.

It’s just that it’s okay, he actually let a family of five fleeing famine live in a small house, and charged three months’ rent, and something happened to that family that night, and the family died under Bai Ying’s hands.

The old people protested one after another, but he bullied the old people as an official sent by the county, accusing them of spreading feudal superstition, and the old people were locked in small rooms one after another.

Just like that family, white shadows appear at night and they die violently.

Not satisfied with this, the village chief searched the villagers' properties everywhere, submitted a letter of abdication, and moved out of Huaishu Village.

When he left, the village was already in a mess.

"After that person left, the villagers lost their minds and didn't talk to others. They were like logs, farming, eating, and sleeping every day... It's been ten years..."

"Until not long ago, a man in black suddenly came to the village. He walked up to the locust tree and rubbed it for a while, and told me that someone will come to save the village in a short time. The only price is to use the village as the background of the game. ..."

"I agreed. I can't hold on much longer. I just want to see the village return to its original condition before leaving..."

As he said that, some pictures from the past flashed in the eyes of the old man. Although the village was not as prosperous as the city, the village head loved the people, and everyone in the village had no worries about food and clothing. One of the village heads brought the fruits of the village to the city to sell. After selling it for a year, rain or shine, I finally bought two tractors for the villagers to use in farming with the money from selling fruit.

The children played hide and seek around the old locust tree, caught grasshoppers in the fields, fished and caught shrimps in the river, and were very happy and lively.

But now, all the villagers are like wooden people, numb, with no spirit in their eyes.

Gradually, the figure of the old man became nothingness, and finally disappeared in place. At the same time, a gust of wind blew around, and a white door appeared from the trunk of the old locust tree...
