Daring! She cheated in the thriller game
Chapter 247 Eat Melon
Just as Yu Lan stepped into the garden, in a courtyard somewhere on the east side of the garden.
A pair of slender hands were fiddling with the incense burner. He seemed to notice something and paused slightly.
"She is coming?"
"Your Excellency, yes, she went to the Forest of Ten Thousand Ghosts first, and then came to the yard." In the dark corner of the room, a maid in green knelt on the ground and answered.
"Humph." The man snorted, half laughing, "You're pretty smart. You know to go to the Forest of Ten Thousand Ghosts to be punished first."
The maid in green kneeling on the ground hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help but speak: "My lord..."
"Ok?"
The maid sensed the anger in the man's tone, and she trembled, but still said, "My lord, she didn't go to the Forest of Ten Thousand Ghosts to be punished. On the contrary... on the contrary, she killed 138 evil ghosts, 12 ghost generals, and two ghost kings there..."
Sensing the increasing pressure from her master, the maid spoke in a lower and lower voice, until she simply kept silent.
The man's hands trembled slightly, but he laughed straight away: "Great, you're great, Yulan. After not seeing you for so long, you've become so capable!"
As he spoke, he became extremely excited and even slapped the table with his palm. The table could not withstand the man's strength and turned into powder in that instant.
The waiters in the room knelt down one after another, and the man showed a half-smile on his face: "Forget it, just kill them, they are just scum... You know what to do next."
"Yes, my lord."
"Then go out." The man waved his hand, and the waiter next to him stood up to clean up the mess in the room caused by the man's anger. He suddenly thought of something, and turned his head to ask the maid standing next to him: "By the way, how are those two people now?"
"Your Excellency, the two of them are still in the forbidden area and show no signs of coming out."
"Tsk." Hearing this, the man sneered: "Nothing more than that."

Facing Gu Yan's teasing eyes and Mi Ji's suspicious eyes, Yu Lan walked into the door expressionlessly. The four waiters in the courtyard bowed to them respectfully, which made Gu Yan and the others feel uncomfortable. Yu Lan felt that some things could not be concealed, so she sent the four people out to serve as door gods. Just as she was about to speak, she heard the bustling voices coming from outside.
"What happened?" Yu Lan poked her head out of the door. The waiters standing outside were startled by her and replied tremblingly, "Miss, a guest is here."
The yard that Qinghe arranged for Gu Yan was in a secluded location and would not be disturbed by outsiders, so if they wanted to know what was happening nearby, they had to go out and see.
"Do you want to go and take a look?" Yu Lan turned around and asked the two people in the room with a burning gaze, obviously trying to escape from something.
Gu Yan sighed helplessly: "Then let's go and take a look."
After the three of them left, the four waiters followed them closely. Although they knew they would not do anything to them, they felt uncomfortable being stared at by four ghosts.
Seeing that Gu Yan was a little uncomfortable, Yu Lan sent two people away: "Leave two to guard the yard."
"Yes." The two maids walking behind breathed a sigh of relief and ran back without looking back, as if Yu Lan was some kind of monster.
Mi Ji looked at her in shock. Yu Lan choked up and said, "Why? Have you never seen a ghost?"
Mi Ji twitched his lips: "Okay, okay."
But having said that, he recalled the attitudes of the ghosts he met along the way towards Yu Lan, each one more respectful and more afraid of Yu Lan than the other, and an incredible thought arose in his mind.
But this guess was too unbelievable, so Mi Ji didn't dare to say it out loud, so he could only keep it to himself for the time being. He looked at Gu Yan with melancholy, but found that this man didn't seem to notice anything unusual about Yu Lan, but was very comfortable, and his heart choked.
He poked Gu Yan's shoulder: "Didn't you notice?"
"What did you find?" Gu Yan was stunned for a moment, and then he thought of what Mi Ji said: "What are you worried about? Do you think Xiao Yu will harm us?"
He looked at Yu Lan who was walking in front of him. She seemed to be in a good mood at the moment, with a faint smile on her lips: "Everyone has their own secrets, but no matter what they are, you also know what kind of person Xiao Yu is. No matter where this place is or what Xiao Yu's identity is, she will never change the fact that she is good to us, don't you think?"
Mi Ji sighed, he was too sensitive: "You are right."
He had not forgotten that Yu Lan had helped his brother. He also remembered that Yu Lan had said that she came here to look for someone because of Hang Hang. He was overthinking it.
"So, don't be surprised no matter what happens next." Gu Yan said with a smile: "I'm mentally prepared. Even if Yu Lan says that she is actually an NPC in this dungeon, I will accept it."
"You are quite careless." Mi Ji curled his lips and did not mention the matter again.
Following the noise, Yu Lan and the others arrived at another courtyard. They did not rush over, but stopped not far away. There happened to be a stone table there, so if they sat down, people next to them would not see them.
As soon as they sat down, the waiter behind them brought them a pot of tea, and soon a plate of melon seeds. It was a complete set of equipment.
Yu Lan drank the tea naturally, squinted her eyes contentedly, and then grabbed a handful of melon seeds and started to eat them. While eating, she called Gu Yan and the others to join her: "Come on, this tea is delicious."
Mi Ji hesitated for a moment. His trust in Yu Lan was greater than his fear of the copy. He also picked up the teacup and took a sip. Then, his eyes sparkled, "This tea tastes much better than the last time you brewed it!"
"Really?" Yu Lan smiled proudly, "It tastes good, drink more. The ones they brew are much better than mine."
Yu Lan kept cracking pumpkin seeds in her mouth. She liked eating pumpkin seeds, especially those soaked in green tea. Paired with Biluochun, it was so delicious that it lingered on her lips and teeth.
The three of them were drinking tea and eating melon seeds here, but the noisy atmosphere next to them was not so good.
Yu Lan listened but didn't understand the whole story. She only heard several men arguing with other men, with a few women's voices mixed in from time to time, as well as the sound of people trying to stop the quarrel in a gentle voice.
"It should be that two groups of players started quarreling, and the ghost servant was trying to mediate?" Mi Ji said. He squinted his eyes and listened carefully: "One group of players seems to have died?"
"What's dead?" Yu Lan was stunned for a moment, then she remembered the rules the system had said and immediately understood: "That team of players died during the day, and are they resurrected now?"
"It seems so." Mi Ji responded vaguely, but since he couldn't eat the whole melon, he couldn't make a judgment.
Everyone pricked up their ears and listened carefully. After eating the melon for a while, they suddenly heard a cold female voice stopping them.
Although the voice was not loud, the owner of the voice was obviously very majestic, which made the two teams of players feel frightened and dared not make a sound.
"Dear guests, do you have any dissatisfaction with us? If you encounter any difficulties, please tell us. Don't quarrel and hurt the harmony."
Yu Lan recognized the voice: "It's Qing He."
There happened to be plants blocking Qinghe's figure where they were, so they couldn't see the ghostly aura that was raging due to Qinghe's anger. This made her pretty face look very scary, which scared the quarreling players at once.
One of the teams of players came to their senses and said with their necks stiff, "Why did you let these people in? I watched them die. They are ghosts! I don't want to live with ghosts!"
The other pair of players were also unconvinced and shouted, "You are the devil! Didn't you see the rules of the system? Those who died during the day can be resurrected. Did you see our two broken hands? This is the price of resurrection!"
"Tsk, who knows whether you will be human or ghost after resurrection." The first team of players said sarcastically, "Anyway, I don't want to live in the same room with them, and I don't want those waiters in the yard either!"
The players in the latter team obviously didn't have a good temper either. When they heard what that player said, they almost got so angry that they started fighting, but they stopped hesitantly under Qinghe's cold gaze.
"In this case, I will rearrange the rooms for you. But guests, are you dissatisfied with our service? Why do you want to replace the waiters in the yard?"
Hearing Qing He's question, the waiters who were trying to stop the fight all knelt on the ground, which surprised Gu Yan: "Wow, there are so many rules."
"The rules in our house are very strict. Please forgive me, young master." The blue-clad waiter following behind Yu Lan smiled awkwardly: "Sister Qinghe is a first-class maid. She is stronger than us. Everyone is in awe of her."
After saying this, Gu Yan felt a little embarrassed: "It's okay, it's okay..."
"Besides, our family has a rule that when guests come, there must be no less than four waiters to serve them. If the guests don't use us, it means that the guests are dissatisfied with us. If Sister Qinghe finds out, she will blame us."
"So that's why." Gu Yan was stunned. He thought that there were so many ghosts in the yard waiting for an opportunity to persecute them, but he didn't expect that it was just a rule at home. He couldn't help but look at the blue-clothed waiter behind him with some sighs: "You guys are really hard-working."
"It's not hard, it's not hard." The blue-robed messenger said quickly, "We are afraid that we will do something wrong and displease the young masters. Please forgive us."
On the other side, the player said impatiently: "It's not about replacing them, it's about not wanting them! Didn't you hear what I said? No one is allowed to stay, and no one is allowed to enter our house!"
"They probably became suspicious of the waiters and thought they would harm them in the middle of the night." Mi Ji analyzed: "But... your family doesn't allow this, right? What would you do if the guests insisted on not being served?"
In response, the blue-robed waiter pulled the corner of his mouth and revealed an ambiguous smile: "We can still distinguish between the guest's order and the host's order, which is more important."
Looking at the waiter's smile, Gu Yan and Mi Ji couldn't help but shudder and began to sympathize with that team of players.
When the visible “people” leave, what remains are the invisible ones.
Mi Ji couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but he was still afraid. He didn't want to keep anyone in the yard to serve, but he didn't ask them to leave. Even Yu Lan only asked them to go out as door gods, and didn't violate this taboo.
He couldn't help but look at Yu Lan with admiration: "Xiao Yu is really thoughtful."
"?" Yu Lan stopped cracking melon seeds and looked at Mi Ji in confusion, not understanding why he said that.
Qinghe over there seemed to agree to the request of that team of players. She whispered a few words to the people next to her, and after arranging another team of players, she walked towards Yulan and their yard.
But unexpectedly, when I turned the corner, I saw three people sitting next to me and eating melon seeds leisurely.
Qinghe:......
She reminded him with a somewhat amusing tone: "Miss, young masters, the meal is ready. Don't eat the melon seeds anymore, or you won't be able to eat."
"Okay." Yu Lan patted the crushed melon seeds on her hands and drank the tea in the cup in one gulp: "Let's go back and eat. I'm starving."
Qinghe walked in front and sent Yulan and the others back to the courtyard. She turned around and went to the dining room next door.
They just took a quick look from the outside and didn't go into the house to take a closer look. At this time, Gu Yan and Mi Ji couldn't help but exclaim in disappointment.
Wow, this vase is beautiful. Wow, this jade ornament is beautiful. Wow, this overhead light is so bright. Wow, this air conditioner is so cool.
Wait, air conditioning?
Gu Yan's eyes widened in surprise, and he looked around the room carefully. He had been impressed by the antique, elegant and exquisite decoration of the house since he came in. He originally thought that the house was also antique in design, but he didn't expect that there were electrical appliances inside?
As if she noticed Gu Yan's gaze, Qing He smiled slightly: "Master, don't worry. The house is fully air-conditioned and equipped with wifi. There is also a LAN. There is also a game room and a movie theater upstairs. But for some reason... you can't access the Internet for the time being."
"Oh, oh..." Gu Yan twitched his lips. Is he concerned about whether he can go online? But it's really a pity that he can't go online...
After everyone sat down at the table, Qing He clapped his hands, and the waiters waiting outside came in one after another, each holding two dishes in their hands. After the dishes were served, Qing He asked again: "Excuse me, do you need us to stay and serve you?"
"Serve?" Before Gu Yan could react to why he had to be served, Yu Lan interrupted him, "It's like the service at Haidilao, where they feed the food directly into your mouth. But I suggest you don't do that. Everyone, leave. Does Qinghe want to stay and eat with us?"
"I dare not overstep the mark." Qing He responded with lowered eyebrows and a pleasing look, then she and the waiter beside her retreated quietly, closing the door considerately.
"Luckily everyone has left. I'm not used to people staring at me while I'm eating." Gu Yan sighed, looked at the rich meal of six dishes and a soup in front of him and was about to pick up his chopsticks, but stopped again with a frown.
"Why do I feel like something is not right?"
The dishes in front of him were very rich, but without exception, they were all pale. The bloodless white meat that had been blanched in water was placed on the table, and some of the meat was cut so badly that its original shape could not be seen. This made Gu Yan begin to doubt what the original ingredients were.
