Xuejian's eyes were shining with confidence.

It seems that she is quite confident after mastering the rules.

The old man glanced at the big stone and said slowly: "One is not enough, so double it. Because there are more things in my bowl. Correspondingly, your bets must also increase."

Now there is a stick of corpse oil wax and a game coin in the big bowl.

Chen Bei understood.

After the player loses, the bet is lost to the old man, who will place the bet in the bowl and raise it.

As the ante in the bowl increases, players have to bet more to win back!

Back and forth, the rising tide lifts all boats, and you have to double your bet every time.

Chen Bei had an idea and took back Xuejianxia's game coins and returned them to their original owners.

The two communicated secretly.

Zero Degree: [Are you sure you can beat him? ]

Xuejian: [We are 70% to 80% sure. ]

Zero Degree: [Enough! Let's do this, stop playing with him now, go somewhere else, and come back later. When other players come here to play chess and lose to the old man, the ante in the bowl will increase. Then we will come back and win everything with profit. ]

Xuejian: [I understand what you mean... You are really greedy. ]

Zero Degree: [That’s it! ]

So the two temporarily gave up playing chess and left here.

Anyway, Chen Bei just lost a game coin. Even if the plan doesn't work, he won't lose much, so he just feeds the dog...

Just left not long ago.

Zilong sent a message and provided a piece of information.

Some players found the "Chunhua Shop". The shopkeeper is an old woman, and she sells not only corpse oil and wax, but also some groceries.

The price of corpse oil wax is one game coin, and some players have already bought it.

Moreover, the corpse oil wax in the store is in limited supply, only ten sticks in total, while supplies last.

If it all depends on buying, no one can afford it.

It's better to get it through other means.

Prostitution for free is the way to go!

Chenbei shared the information with Xuejian.

Xuejian also didn't plan to spend money to buy it. There was still some time before dark, and there was still a chance to get more corpse oil wax.

If it doesn't work out, we can just squeeze in together for one night...

"Look, another player's profile picture has been blackened!" Xuejian suddenly said.

Chen Bei looked at the group chat interface and found that there was indeed one person missing.

Not long after that, there was one less person and the number became 15.

Two people died in a row!

"quack!"

"Gah, gah, gah!"

The crows cawing in the sky seem to be announcing the death of the player.

Chen Bei wanted to know the cause of death of these two people.

This happened to be mentioned in the management group.

According to the administrator.

There was a conflict of interest between these two players, and one of them took action and killed the other.

This kind of murder violated the village rules and brought about the disaster of death, causing the murderer to also take his life!

"You can't kill anyone... If you kill anyone, you will die too!"

Chen Bei frowned.

The previous games were all about fighting and killing, so I’m used to it.

Now the sudden ban on killing people made him feel constrained and uncomfortable.

In addition, the administrator also mentioned a keyword - law enforcement team!

The player who violated the village rules was executed by the "law enforcement team".

The law enforcement team obeys the village chief's orders and kills people invisible. None of the players saw the law enforcement team.

The management group also did not elaborate on the situation of the enforcement team.

The death of the player is a wake-up call for the living people and proves the serious consequences of violating village rules.

There were only 18 players in total, and three died early.

This is not a good sign.

If he continues to die like this, he may not even be able to collect enough living sacrifices in the end.

On Chenbei's side, continue to explore Ruyi Village with Xuejian, wherever you go.

As I walked, I encountered a special device halfway.

There is a metal scale on the roadside, with a tray on each side and a total of ten rectangular stones in front.

Each stone is different in size and has the same words engraved on it.

Blood-sucking stone!

I have heard of vampires, but not of blood-sucking stones.

Chen Bei tried to take away the scale and stone, but was stopped by invisible force.

Xuejian pointed to the middle of the scale.

There is a cover there that seems to be openable.

"It seems to be another small puzzle-solving mechanism." Chen Bei said.

"These stones in front should be weights. If there are scales and weights, just put them on top."

After saying that, Xuejian picked up a stone weight and placed it on one end of the scale.

The weight pressed down one end of the scale, and there was a clicking sound inside.

Xuejian placed more stone weights and adjusted them back and forth until all ten weights were placed.

But nothing happened.

The two of them studied together to find a solution.

Chen Bei went around to the back of the scale and made a new discovery. There was a very obvious diagonal line carved on this side.

He had a flash of inspiration and an idea.

"There is a line here. Perhaps you need to adjust the weights on both sides of the scale until the tilt angle of the scale overlaps this line."

Chen Bei expressed his guess.

This guess is very likely.

The two tried to realize it, adjusting the weights back and forth according to the angle of the diagonal line.

Each stone weight is different in size and weight.

Chen Bei tried taking a shortcut and moved the scale with his hand to force it to overlap with the diagonal line, but there was no reaction.

It seems that it only counts if you use weights to adjust the scale, otherwise this puzzle mechanism would be meaningless.

The two struggled for a long time, but still couldn't crack it.

In the end, only a very close weighting solution was developed.

There are six weights on the left and four weights on the right.

The tilt angle of the scale is now very close to the oblique line behind it, just a little short of completely overlapping.

This is the best solution.

Xuejian had a new idea and pointed to the text on the weight: "These three words are specially engraved on it. I guess it has some purpose and is part of the puzzle."

"The purpose...the blood-sucking stone...the weights...the balance...the blood-sucking stone...the blood-sucking stone...could it be said!"

Chen Bei stepped forward, took out a dagger, and decisively cut his own arm, which was a clean and neat move.

Now, he is really used to injuries.

The blood dripped down and landed on the blood-sucking stone in the tray.

A magical scene appeared.

The blood-sucking stone was like a sponge, instantly absorbing Chen Bei's blood.

After sucking blood, the weight increased, and the scale tilted further, moving little by little.

It looks like I guessed it right!

Chen Bei had encountered institutions that needed to be infused with blood before, and it was the same this time.

Both of them stared with wide eyes, looking forward to the result.

Until the tilt angle of the balance completely coincides with the line behind it.

Click!

The cover in front of the scale was unlocked and opened, and there was a small space inside, which happened to hide a stick of corpse oil wax.

Chen Bei retracted his hand, took out the corpse oil wax, and threw it directly to Xuejian. This was agreed before, and he would take turns to profit.

Seeing that there was no nonsense, Xue directly put away the corpse oil and wax, then took out a roll of hemostatic bandage and took the initiative to bandage it for Chen Bei.

The two of them each had a piece of corpse oil wax, but it was still not enough.

I'm afraid I need to collect 4 pieces of corpse oil wax before it gets dark before I can feel relieved.

"Let's go, keep looking. There should be many similar puzzle games in the village. The game wants us to play this, so we can play it."

Chenbei and Xuejian continue to move forward.

After walking not far, there was a well halfway ahead. Two villagers were pulling something out of the well, then rolled it into a roll and wrapped it around their shoulders.

Chen Bei didn't understand what it was at first, but he didn't see it clearly until he got closer.

What the two men pulled out from the well turned out to be shiny intestines.
