Ark Games [Unlimited]
Chapter 25 Change
"What can we do now, everyone can't get out..."
Wang Jing squatted on the ground with her head in her arms, and veins popped out of her forehead.
Meng Yan was not infected with panic, remembering what the fox fairy said, he said, "To sum up the information, I suspect that danger will only occur at nine o'clock in the evening. Both we and the residents will be attacked by unknown forces, but the residents We'll be back the next day, but we can't."
Ning Yuan looked at his watch, it was already noon.
"There is still time, we should prepare in advance."
After Meng Yan finished speaking, he found that Zhao Jinfeng was looking at him with a little appreciation in his eyes.
The dark-skinned young man smiled, and continued, "Because it's still relatively safe during the day, I suggest that everyone explore this building in groups, draw a floor plan, and collect some usable materials at the same time."
Zhao Jinfeng has been silently observing his teammates. In his opinion, Meng Yan is very qualified and has the potential to survive. After confirming this, he walked to Meng Yan's side.
"You're right, I'm on your team."
Ruishen spoke before Meng Yan did. He had a gentle face, straightened his clothes gracefully, and seemed to just casually say, "No need. In that case, Wang Jing and Ning Yuan are only two people, and they can't handle it."
Zhao Jinfeng said, "Both you and this woman want to team up with Meng Yan?"
Ruishen stopped laughing, and the innate sharpness on his face was highlighted, "Of course, we are members of the same team..."
Before he could finish speaking, Meng Yan interrupted impatiently.
"You are with Zhao Jinfeng, and I am with Lin Manshu. That's the deal."
He hated Ruishen's way of making decisions for himself, very much like his ex-boyfriend.Domineering, self-centered, never consider other people's feelings, and don't listen to others' opinions easily.
Meng Yan was tired of this feeling.
Because if you stay with this kind of person, you will gradually lose yourself, just like living in the Ark game for a long time will gradually lose your humanity.
They are all consuming you until you become what they are.
Ruishen was stabbed by Meng Yan's stare, and it took him a while to recover.
Meng Yan tore off the post-it notes at the front desk, took some more pens, and handed them to everyone.
"The building has a total of six floors. Our three teams explore two floors each, and return to the lobby to gather after half an hour. Remember to write down the kitchen or useful places you encounter during the period."
Meng Yan's thinking was very clear. He was sure that he would not encounter any attack now, otherwise the dungeon wouldn't let the fox fairy remind him.
Since it is a competition, there will naturally be no unsolvable questions. The dungeon is not so perfect. This period of safety is for them to arm themselves first, plan strategies, and face danger in a prepared state.
"Master, what about me?" Hu Santong was surprised by the calmness of this little apprentice, "How did you forget about Master?"
Meng Yan asked respectfully, "Can you call the Xian family again?"
"Yes it can, but it takes two hours every other time."
Meng Yan thinks in a popular way of understanding, that is, this cheap master is a powerful summoner, but his big move has a long CD and can be used to deal with sudden dangers.
"In that case, you go with me first, and invite that fox fairy to come over in two hours, don't waste this opportunity." Meng Yan squeezed his chin and said, "I still have questions I want to ask."
"Okay." Seeing that his apprentice was so reliable, Hu Santong didn't say anything.
"Anyone else have any objections?"
Everyone shook their heads.
Meng Yan sent the two children back to the relatively safe room 402, stayed with their grandfather, and then separated in twos to explore floor by floor.
Ruishen and Zhao Jinfeng chose the third floor and the fourth floor. The man who has gone through countless dungeons has yet to recover from Meng Yan's disgusting stare...
The two walked to the corridor on the third floor and stopped at the same time.
"Is it a bad thing to always think about one person?" Ruishen was rarely confused.
He was also talking to himself and didn't expect Zhao Jinfeng to answer him, but Zhao Jinfeng gave the answer after thinking for a while.
"It depends on whether the person concerned needs your 'consideration'."
Rui sighed deeply, feeling that Meng Yan really doesn't need himself anymore.
He recalled when he was a boy, that bad-tempered kid at the same table was always abused and bullied by his classmates because of family reasons, and he would stand in front of each other every time, it seemed that taking care of Meng Yan had become an instinct.
He took Meng Yan into his own home, because the child lacked common sense in life, and insisted on changing himself from a classmate to an old mother. In his opinion, making decisions for this child who can cry secretly is a correct protective measure .
But he ignored the other party's growth...
Zhao Jinfeng said again, "If it were me, I would really hate it when someone restricts me."
"is that so."
But Ruishen really can't think of any other way to get along. In his thinking, this is the way of expressing "love".
Why do humans hate this kind of behavior? Look at the wild wolves who voluntarily follow humans. They are attracted by this kind of protection, and they don’t need to eat, sleep, and fight for their lives. That’s why they evolved into domestic dogs.
And so many domesticated animals in the world also rely on the shade of the breeder. Although they will be killed, the population reproduction is much stronger than that of wild species.
Ruishen himself grew up under such conditions. He didn't know how to show kindness to a person, so he could only silently do everything within his power for the other person, even if it seemed like imprisonment.
But the current situation made Ruishen have to recognize a fact.
Perhaps Meng Yan is different from ordinary people, he does not need a shed to shelter from the wind and rain, he is more like a plant with tenacious vitality, which can bloom fragrant flowers after breaking through all shackles...
"I don't know what's going on with the two of you, as long as it doesn't affect your survival." Zhao Jinfeng said with a straight face, "I still suggest you chase it back. There are not many people like Meng Yan."
Rui Shen?
How did you know?
"It's quite obvious, your eyes look like you want to eat him."
Ruishen sneered, "Why haven't I seen you talk so much before?"
Zhao Jinfeng said, "It is indispensable to set up the characters on stage. Let yourself look colder, lest useless people often bother me."
"Then Meng Yan and I are useful?"
Zhao Jinfeng nodded, "Both of you are very suitable to survive in the ark, but Meng Yan will suffer more than you."
Ruishen didn't know how this guy could tell, but he had to say that Zhao Jinfeng was very accurate at seeing people.
Meng Yan's character will make him suffer so much in this inhuman world, which is why Ruishen has abandoned his teammates mercilessly since the first dungeon. If he is smart enough, why let Meng Yan This kind of thing hates myself, isn't it good to pretend to be watertight?
He just wants Meng Yan to get used to it in advance. In Meng Yan's eyes, "unforgivable behavior" is just a common thing in the dungeon, such as eating and drinking. He believes that Meng Yan will understand him in the end.
"But I like the one like Meng Yan better." Zhao Jinfeng glanced at Ruishen, "You look like you have no idea."
Rui Shen replied with a hypocritical smile, "It's enough that I like him, and I don't need you."
The two walked around the third floor tacitly.
On the other side, Meng Yan checked the first floor together with Hu Santong and Lin Manshu.
He has always wondered whether there are any living people in this place other than the residents, whether what they saw at the front desk was a person or a ghost, and if it was a ghost, how could there be food for them to serve.
Also, how did this sanatorium maintain its operation, and how was it discovered by Wang Shiyu.
After all, this kind of remote cliff, if it were Meng Yan, he must not know that there can be buildings in this ghost place.
He was in front, Hu Santong was behind, and Lin Manshu was in the middle. The three of them were steadily exploring everything in front of them.
The first floor has a large area. In addition to the lobby and front desk, there is also a canteen, office, storage room, and utility room. They were surprised to find that the storage room was full of ingredients, but none of them were rotten, and they were all very fresh.
This is a bit abnormal. The Sunshine Sanatorium is so far away from the city, so they will definitely choose to buy in small quantities. The hoarded vegetables and fruits will definitely lose some water, but there is no such thing here.
Moreover, Li Guoqing's previous meals were delivered by someone, so where are the nurses who delivered the food and the chefs in the cafeteria?
Meng Yan felt more and more strange looking at it, and remembered the plane route of the first floor in his mind, so he went upstairs to check on the second floor.
The second floor is the office of the nurses and medical staff. Like the first floor, there is no one there.When the door was opened, there was a white coat hanging on a hanger, which looked particularly intrusive.
Meng Yan entered the director's office, casually rummaged through the drawers, and unexpectedly found a worn-out diary.
He opened it to check.
On July 1999, 7, the nursing home was completed. I should be happy. This is the life savings of me and the dean, but I always feel weird. I don’t sleep well at night. The voice, maybe the nerves are too tense.
Meng Yan's expression froze, and he immediately read it seriously, hoping to find some clues in it.
On July 1999, 7, the elderly resident said that he saw animals running in the corridor at night. How could this be possible? This is the coast.Maybe I shouldn't be greedy for cheap and buy this place to renovate, but the money was spent, and it's useless to regret it.
On August 1999, 8, I couldn't sleep well all night. The old people were always wailing at night, saying that something invisible was biting them, but I checked during the day, but I couldn't find any scars. Why did they Are you kidding me?I am under a lot of pressure, I hope the dean can find out the truth.I really regret it. I heard that this used to be the temple of the fishing village. I shouldn't tear down the temple. This is retribution.
September 1999, 9, last night I saw them, I saw them, they were nibbling my feet by the bed.Help, help, I can't get through the landline, and I can't get out the door, who can come and save me?
On September 1999, 9, I breathed a sigh of relief. The Li Group was going to acquire this nursing home. The dean and I both agreed to sell it to the Li family and take the money to go back to the countryside. Maybe this way we can relax. One point, no more galloping down the corridors with them.
September 1999, 9, this woman is a liar!Hahaha, I can't leave it anymore, I can't leave it anymore!
On x.x., 2000, the residents were in good condition.
On x.x., 2001, the residents were in good condition.
……
On September 2020, 9, the residents are in good condition, the woman said that there will be new people coming here, I am looking forward to it.
Seeing this, Meng Yan swallowed, turned his head and asked Hu Santong, "Master, what's today's date?"
Hu Santong's complexion was extremely bad, "September [-], [-]."
After half an hour, everyone returned to the hall to meet.
Ruishen was the first to speak, "The matter is more serious than I imagined. The third and fourth floors are all ordinary dormitory rooms. We opened the panel on the door and found that there were people living inside, but the old people have all gone crazy."
"Not only that, I found out that the brand of someone's clothes was ten years ago, and they are no longer available for sale. It is conservatively estimated that these old people have been trapped in nursing homes for ten years."
Wang Jing also said, "The fifth and sixth floors are also residents' rooms, but they are more luxurious. There is no one in them, but there are traces of use in the rooms, and there is a foul smell."
Ning Yuan looked bitter, "I've never smelled such a strong smell in my life."
Meng Yan rubbed his forehead and told his teammates what happened in the diary.
"What, this place was bought by the Li family? But isn't Li Guoqing here?" Ning Yuan didn't turn the corner.
"It's Wang Shiyu, our big customer." Meng Yan said helplessly, "She bought this place in the name of Slim Pharmaceuticals and Li's Group, but Li Guoqing didn't seem to know about it, which explains why Tong Wang Shiyu knew about such a remote place. What a hell place."
"Because this site was originally hers."
Wang Jing felt that the clues in her mind became even more chaotic, "Then why did she send Li Guoqing here? Isn't it impossible for residents to die here?"
"I don't know, I'm also in a mess right now." Meng Yan beckoned, "Let's go upstairs and ask Li Guoqing to clarify."
But Hu Santong stopped him, "According to what the Xian family said, we have to leave before nine o'clock. Let's find a way to get out now."
Meng Yan sighed in his heart, is there still a need to look for it? If you can go out before nine o'clock, this dungeon will not be called "six people high difficulty".
Seeing that the apprentice didn't listen, Hu Santong was furious, "Are you the master or I am the master, listen to me, find an exit!"
"Master, why are you so anxious?" Lin Manshu had an idea, "Call Daxian'er out in two hours, and let him tell you that it's okay."
It seems to be...
Only then did Hu Santong soften his attitude, "Let's go, first ask that old boy Li Guoqing."
When everyone returned to the fourth floor, they found that the grandpa and grandson were happily chatting together.
Ning Yuan was so angry that he went straight to Li Guoqing and said angrily, "This nursing home originally belonged to your Li family, what are you pretending to be with us!"
The old man was taken aback, obviously not understanding what Ning Yuan meant.
"My house?"
Meng Yan pulled the two children away and led them out of the door.
The interrogation in the house continued.
Meng Yan leaned against the wall and folded his arms, his eyes drifted to the bay window at the end of the corridor, "You two have been here before."
Yuanyuan hummed.
"Have you signed it?"
"No."
"Mom said it's not our turn yet." The little girl's tone was gloomy, and there was no light in her big dark eyes. "It's not our turn yet. Of course it won't be like Dad and Uncle."
What is this kid talking about? !
Meng Yan's eyes widened in surprise, "It's your turn?"
Seeing Meng Yan's surprised look, Yuanyuan smiled, "It will never be our turn."
Meng Yan wanted to ask again, but the little girl stopped talking.
And the people in the house did not find any clues.
Meng Yan opened the shutter of the opposite door, and found an old lady sitting inside, unkempt, with her head hanging down, mumbling something, and the door couldn't be opened, as Ruishen said, the living people here are crazy.
When he returned to 402, he felt that things had reached a deadlock, and the only way was to wait an hour for Hu Santong to call out the fox fairy again.
Squeezing his fingers, Meng Yan remembered the amulet that had scalded him before. Perhaps it was the existence of that thing that protected Li Guoqing from being attacked and causing mental disorders like other residents.
"Mr. Li, can you show me your amulet?"
Li Guoqing shuddered all over, and his eyes turned cloudy with age, "Farewell, it just went to the temple to ask for it, it's very common."
Meng Yan is not so good at fooling around, "I just borrowed it for a look, and I will return it to you."
But Li Guoqing still did not let go.
"Why so much nonsense." Ning Yuan tore off the hem of the old man's clothes, revealing a simple jade plaque from underneath.
Ning Yuan's eyes straightened when he saw this, this thing is definitely a life-saving prop in the dungeon!
He snatched the amulet, trying to stuff it into his pocket like holding a rare treasure.
As soon as the whip came, Ning Yuan's hand stopped.
It was Hu San who whipped him with the king's whip, "What are you doing?"
Meng Yan snatched the jade tablet from his hand, looked at it carefully, and found that the workmanship of this thing is not exquisite, and the jade material is not top-notch, and it really doesn't look like a carefully carved magic weapon.
"Where did it come from?" He shook the jade pendant in his palm a few times and asked.
Li Guoqing looked nervous, for fear that Meng Yan would drop something, and his old face was covered with folds. "I was weak and sick since I was a child, and my father begged me for a jade token. It was really just a random begging in the temple."
Meng Yan saw that the other party was hiding something, and sneered, "I said I would not steal your things, so you don't have to be afraid. The jade token you ask for can burn me and protect you from being attacked for so long. Do you think I will?" Do you believe it?"
Li Guoqing gritted his teeth and refused to say anything.
Meng Yan felt as if he had touched the key point.
He originally wanted to use the two children to persuade the old man to tell him everything he knew, but Ruishen had another way.
Ruishen took a few steps towards the old man, his faint pupils reflected the other's appearance, he just looked at him quietly.
Before Meng Yan knew what he was going to do, he heard the old man suddenly cry out in pain.
"Ahhh! What did you do!" The old man's face turned pale instantly, sweat rolled down his forehead, and the two children were also frightened behind Meng Yan.
The gods were all taken aback.
This seems to be a "skill", or it may be a prop, and it is the first time they have seen people around them use it.
"Say." Ruishen didn't explain, and continued to press the old man.
Li Guoqing only felt that his body was soaked by the cold tide, and the bone-eroding pain invaded from every bone seam, forming layers upon layers of endless torment. He had never been so piercing when he suffered from rheumatism. .
Meng Yan couldn't stand it anymore, but the old man couldn't help but tell everything like jumping beans in severe pain.
"I said! This jade tablet was indeed requested by my father. I was weak and sick since I was a child. He spent a lot of money to buy this piece to keep me alive. But he died soon after, and I don't know the meaning of the amulet. Specific origin!"
The severe pain subsided slightly, and Li Guoqing finally recovered his breath.
Ruishen nodded, "Your whole family is short-lived, and you are the only one who survived, probably because of this jade token."
Li Guoqing didn't dare to get angry, so he could only nod his head.
He couldn't even believe why Yupei didn't protect himself this time. Could it be that this young man's methods are more powerful than those invisible monsters?
"Interesting, Wang Shiyu said that your family's death is because you borrowed Yangshou, but in fact, your family's life is short. Is this just an excuse?"
Li Guoqing said, "Except for me and my two grandsons, there is really no one else in the Li family."
"Here, return it to you." Meng Yan returned the amulet to the old man.
Ning Yuan stared like a copper bell, "Why did you return it to him, this thing is a treasure, it can protect us!"
Meng Yan didn't even bother to roll his eyes, "What do you think Wang Shiyu went to all this trouble for? It must be for Li Guoqing. No matter what her purpose is, we can't let her succeed. Do you think you took the amulet away, old man?" Are you still alive?"
Ning Yuan was depressed.
"Isn't that exactly what that woman wants?" Meng Yan didn't want to ridicule him, but he still couldn't help but said, "Use your brain more in everything."
If they really snatched the amulet and let Li Guoqing die, it might cause unimaginable consequences.
In Meng Yan's mind, Wang Shiyu has already been regarded as the villain of the dungeon. If the villain's goal is achieved, players like them will generally not end well.
Li Guoqing hurriedly tied the amulet around his waist again, and heaved a sigh of relief.
Ning Yuan refused to accept it, but he didn't dare to confront Meng Yan because Rui Shen was there.
Ruishen's skill seemed very powerful, and he was on the same team as Meng Yan. He was hard to beat with two fists, so he had to hold back.
Lin Manshu saw that the atmosphere was not right, and it happened that two hours had passed, so she reminded, "Master, please invite the Great Immortal again."
Hu Santong was sitting on the sidelines, also a little flustered, he had never encountered such a situation.
Ordinarily, the list of Xianyuantang is either to check the mistress or to cure evil diseases. He has never experienced such an unimaginable incident. Even if he has a fairy family by his side, he has never had such a fatal time.
Hu Santong grinned, hating the woman who lied to him so much, he picked up the whip angrily.
King Wen's drum was played again, Daqian Ersha slid, and the singing voice from the mouth of the old god stick became much more powerful.
"Yinwu Xulongdang, Siyou ugly tiger man, Shen Zichen came up on the snake, and Haimao didn't find the sheep. When this pass was born, the master exclaimed that night crying is difficult to raise, and please open your eyes, old fairy family, to help the disciple break through. This short-lived pass!"
At the end of the drum beat, Hu Santong opened his closed eyes suddenly, and his whole temperament changed.
Li Guoqing had an amulet to protect his body, and the old man was weak and could not maintain the state of possession for a long time, so the fox fairy got on Hu Santong's body.
"Why don't you leave, do you think you have a long life?" Master Hu Immortal looked at Meng Yan and only talked to him.
Meng Yan once again felt flattered, "We are all trapped here, and we can't get out at all. I invite you here this time to ask you how to get out."
Hu Tianming smacked his lips, "It's really troublesome. I let Hu Santong become my apprentice, so that he can accumulate merit for me, not let him cause trouble for me, and then tell me to wipe my ass."
Meng Yan didn't know what to say.
"It's useless. When he goes out, I must change."
The fox fairy licked his mouth, "Meng Lang-jun, I think you are pretty good."
"It's important." Rui Shen said.
Hu Tianming snorted, and then sensed the building, "Hey, it's strange..."
"What's wrong?" Wang Jing asked anxiously.
"This place has been blocked by a force. Even with my ability, I can't open the passage for you." Hu Tianming was surprised that there is such a powerful method in modern society. "It's hopeless, wait for death."
Meng Yan! ! !
What about the strong NC that was promised, why are you so cheating! !
He gritted his teeth and asked, "Then can you help us find out the truth about the short life of the Li family?"
Hu Tianming said, "Oh, it's not surprising. His family believed in a cult before, and now it's their own fault."
"A cult again?"
"Grandpa Li Guoqing was still a countryman. In order to get rich, he believed in a cult, saying that it would ensure his smooth business journey. But everything has a price. How could such a good thing happen to just one person."
Hu Tianming blinked his beautiful and slender eyes, "Even us immortals need to do something for mortals in order to gain merit."
"What is the price the Li family has to pay?" Meng Yan asked.
"Break off children and grandchildren." Hu Tianming smiled.
"But Li Guoqing is still alive... He even escaped disaster by relying on this jade card, and gave birth to heirs, even grandchildren." Meng Yan said.
There was no sympathy in Hu Tianming's tone, "Isn't this being discovered, and the children are dying one after another. He thought he could hide for a lifetime?"
Hearing this, Li Guoqing, who had pretended to be calm, suddenly twisted, trying to break free from the rope.
"It's useless, and I found an interesting thing, that is, all his heirs died in order of birthday. Counting Li Guoqing himself, he was the third from the bottom."
Li Guoqing's face was livid, he was born in November, and the two children were born in December.
He didn't know what happened in the previous generation, but after hearing what Hu Tianming said, he understood everything!
Meng Yan was also shocked. Yuanyuan said that it was not their turn yet. It turned out that the two siblings were still safe because Li Guoqing was unable to die.
And... it was "mother" who told them about it.
"Wang Shiyu really has a problem."
Hu Tianming glanced at him, "Wang Shiyu, is this old man's daughter-in-law?"
Meng Yan nodded.
"No, she died long ago. She died after giving birth to two children."
In a word, Li Guoqing felt cold all over his body.
So who is Wang Shiyu now?
When the time limit was up, the fox fairy turned into a wisp of smoke and disappeared, leaving only Hu Santong who woke up from a drowsy state.
Right now, all the spearheads are pointing at the major customers of Xianyuantang.
Lin Manshu's mind was spinning quickly, she swallowed, and said in a panic, "Mr. Li, did the successive deaths of your family begin with the birth of two children?"
Li Guoqing almost breathed a sigh of relief, "It's really true when you think about it!"
"Remember, this sanatorium used to be a temple. I suspect..." Lin Manshu's back broke out in cold sweat, "I suspect that Wang Shiyu is a member of a cult. She pretended to be the daughter-in-law of the Li family and killed the Li family one by one. , and framed this matter to Mr. Li, saying that he borrowed his descendant Yangshou to trick us into a nursing home."
Meng Yan nodded, "Besides, she probably sent Li Guoqing to the nursing home on purpose. Because of the protection of the amulet, external means would not work against Li Guoqing, so she wanted to use the mysterious power in the nursing home, but she still couldn't kill him."
"She bought this place ten years ago, before it was Li Guoqing's death... maybe..."
Lin Manshu looked around, "This is the temple, the base of the cult."
Both Wang Jing and Ning Yuan had goose bumps all over their bodies.
Meng Yan thought more deeply, "Try to deduce it. A normal person enters this nursing home and finds something abnormal. What would he do?"
Normal people would really snatch the amulet like Ning Yuan to save their own lives. In this way, the barrier protecting Li Guoqing would disappear, and Wang Shiyu would be able to kill Li Guoqing, a person who shouldn't exist.
As for the previous waves of people, it is very likely that they were killed by the things here before they found the amulet, so Wang Shiyu wanted to find a few people who could hold on.
That is, their so-called "some skills" magic sticks.
Everything explained...
Meng Yan let out a long sigh of relief, "I can't get out, and I can't escape. In this case, we can only wait until nine o'clock for a real head-to-head confrontation. I want to see how difficult it is."
After sorting out everything, Meng Yan became very calm. He was never afraid to face the enemy head-on.
Everyone else was even more nervous and panicked, only Meng Yan seemed to have gotten rid of his troubles, and instead became a fool.
He put Erlang's legs down, twirled the pen on his fingertips a few times, and then threw the pen to his teammate, "Manshu, please integrate the maps drawn by everyone and draw seven copies."
"Old man." Meng Yan said as gently as possible, "After nine o'clock, no matter what happens to us, don't go out to check. Since the amulet can protect you for so long, it proves that it is powerful. The only thing you have to do is to continue to live. .”
Li Guoqing said hoarsely, "If you don't tell me, I will live well. If I die, my grandchildren will suffer."
Meng Yan nodded, and then said, "Teammates, there will be a tough battle at nine o'clock, are you ready?"
Few people answered.
Meng Yan was not annoyed either. "I don't think you are ready. I learned from the clues that invisible monsters may appear in the nursing home, and they are fast and will eat humans. Let's take precautions against this first."
Whether it was the content mentioned in the diary or what Li Guoqing said, they actually gave them hints.
"First of all, don't disperse at night, and don't walk around in the open area. It's better for us to gather in one room, so that the monster's range of activities is limited, and our attacks are easier to carry out."
As a female man, Wang Jing originally wanted to fight for the command position, but she was self-aware. Compared with Meng Yan, she felt that she was weak.
"Secondly, that is how to find new clues while persevering. Where do these monsters come from, and where do they go during the day? These are the points we need to pay attention to, and maybe we can find the exit."
"Finally, I hope that everyone will not use Li Guoqing's amulet. If we fight for it, we still have our lives to fight, but if the nc who needs protection dies, maybe the copy will be lost immediately."
Meng Yan's gaze stayed on Ning Yuan, "Do you understand?"
Ning Yuan suppressed his face and smiled, "As expected of the captain of the team, he speaks in the same way."
Through the map, everyone found a small but clean office. After leaving Li Guoqing and the two children in 402 and locking the door, they began to prepare for the challenge.
They collected the knives and cleaning utensils in the kitchen on the way. Meng Yan skillfully finished the artifact spear again, and handed it to the two girls, and the unarmed Ning Yuan.
Zhao Jinfeng refused the weapon because he had it himself. He put a very handy compound bow in his package, and he was better at using long-range attacks.
As for Ruishen, he doesn't need a weapon.
Meng Yan still remembered the devil's reply that "asking a person's dream envoy is equal to asking a person's size". He didn't want to ask about the opponent's ability at first, but this is a difficult dungeon, and he needs to know the strength of his teammates.
Ruishen didn't give Meng Yan a chance to be entangled, and directly said it himself.
"My dream envoy has already awakened, and her ability is relatively rare, but it is not suitable for the current situation." Ruishen didn't know how to explain his ability, so he simplified, "My blood has special effects, as long as it enters the enemy In the body, it will cause..."
"What caused it?" Lin Manshu was more curious than Meng Yan. She was a loyal spectator of the Ark competition, and she was also a fan of dreams.
Rui Shen looked up at the sky, as if staring at something, then waved for Lin Manshu and Meng Yan to come and listen.
"It will cause a death effect within three days."
Lin Manshu... Really, I think you're bragging.
She has watched the competition for three years, but she has never seen any one-hit kill stunt. This is too cheating, and the eyes of reason will not allow this kind of ability beyond the scope to exist.
"Believe it or not." Rui shrugged and whispered, "This is a secret."
Lin Manshu struggled, and felt that there was a little credibility again, because Ruishen's overly cautious attitude.
The game may be broadcast live on video, Ruishen is afraid of being broadcast, so he hides it like this. If Ruishen is a star god, then his ability will be well known by the public, and this super-line ability will definitely If you are the first to be targeted by the hostile team, the opponent will also take precautions in advance.
"No way..." Lin Manshu also knows many observers, but he has never met Ruishen, maybe Ruishen is so low-key because of this unassuming ability.
At the same time, she also understands that even teammates cannot tell about this ability, and if it is leaked out, it will be a disaster.Does Ruishen trust himself and Meng Yan so much?
Meng Yan had never been in the ark, so he was not surprised, but just clicked his tongue in his heart.Because the three-day incubation period is too long, it may be a magical skill against a single enemy, but it is useless against a group of mobs.
Whether these people can live to three days is a question.
"But you don't have to worry, I have my own props. The gift bag contains a spiritual sword, which can cause damage to supernatural beings." Ruishen patted Meng Yan on the shoulder, "I won't hold you back."
"Why are you so obedient?" Meng Yan teased him.
"Suddenly realized that it seems a little more relaxed to give the decision-making power to others, and to obey orders." Ruishen smiled at him.
Meng Yan was startled.
The smile...is very similar too.
It's just that it's not like what his ex-boyfriend can say.
This made him slightly change his view of Ruishen.
"I'm under a lot of pressure when you're like this. What if I make a mistake in command?" Meng Yan raised the corners of his mouth, and at first he acted like a good boy.
"You are always right."
"vomit."
Lin Manshu sniggered aside, why does this feel so much like coaxing a wife?
But Ruishen said it sincerely, he said it from the bottom of his heart, and it was not nasty at all.
Meng Yan was a little baffled by him, clicked his tongue a few times, and then began to arrange tactics.
The time in the office gradually passed, and it wasn't until Meng Yan said that he had nothing to say and finished explaining some precautions that the room became quiet.
All they could hear was the breathing of their teammates, and the crashing sound of the waves hitting the rocks.
As the setting sun gradually declined, the light in the nursing home became increasingly dimmer. Meng Yan turned on the lights in the office, and at the same time took out the flashlight he had found, making second-hand preparations.
Zhao Jinfeng's reaction was a bit more professional than Meng Yan imagined. He climbed to the top of the cabinet through the heating pipe in the house.The shelf here is very high, and Zhao Jinfeng's position is two meters above, which is the commanding height in the house.
This cool guy didn't say a word, but just changed a matte black compound bow from the package. The design of the bow body is very artistic, and the pulleys at both ends are very huge, which can achieve a very high labor-saving ratio, and the sight is also very good. Advanced, an insider like Meng Yan can see the way at a glance, this is a bow for competitive shooting.
Generally, the weight requirements for accurate shooting bows are not very high. Only the bows that are often used by foreigners for hunting require large weights. However, according to experience, Zhao Jinfeng's bow weight is not small, and adult men who have not been trained may Disaster
Wang Jing squatted on the ground with her head in her arms, and veins popped out of her forehead.
Meng Yan was not infected with panic, remembering what the fox fairy said, he said, "To sum up the information, I suspect that danger will only occur at nine o'clock in the evening. Both we and the residents will be attacked by unknown forces, but the residents We'll be back the next day, but we can't."
Ning Yuan looked at his watch, it was already noon.
"There is still time, we should prepare in advance."
After Meng Yan finished speaking, he found that Zhao Jinfeng was looking at him with a little appreciation in his eyes.
The dark-skinned young man smiled, and continued, "Because it's still relatively safe during the day, I suggest that everyone explore this building in groups, draw a floor plan, and collect some usable materials at the same time."
Zhao Jinfeng has been silently observing his teammates. In his opinion, Meng Yan is very qualified and has the potential to survive. After confirming this, he walked to Meng Yan's side.
"You're right, I'm on your team."
Ruishen spoke before Meng Yan did. He had a gentle face, straightened his clothes gracefully, and seemed to just casually say, "No need. In that case, Wang Jing and Ning Yuan are only two people, and they can't handle it."
Zhao Jinfeng said, "Both you and this woman want to team up with Meng Yan?"
Ruishen stopped laughing, and the innate sharpness on his face was highlighted, "Of course, we are members of the same team..."
Before he could finish speaking, Meng Yan interrupted impatiently.
"You are with Zhao Jinfeng, and I am with Lin Manshu. That's the deal."
He hated Ruishen's way of making decisions for himself, very much like his ex-boyfriend.Domineering, self-centered, never consider other people's feelings, and don't listen to others' opinions easily.
Meng Yan was tired of this feeling.
Because if you stay with this kind of person, you will gradually lose yourself, just like living in the Ark game for a long time will gradually lose your humanity.
They are all consuming you until you become what they are.
Ruishen was stabbed by Meng Yan's stare, and it took him a while to recover.
Meng Yan tore off the post-it notes at the front desk, took some more pens, and handed them to everyone.
"The building has a total of six floors. Our three teams explore two floors each, and return to the lobby to gather after half an hour. Remember to write down the kitchen or useful places you encounter during the period."
Meng Yan's thinking was very clear. He was sure that he would not encounter any attack now, otherwise the dungeon wouldn't let the fox fairy remind him.
Since it is a competition, there will naturally be no unsolvable questions. The dungeon is not so perfect. This period of safety is for them to arm themselves first, plan strategies, and face danger in a prepared state.
"Master, what about me?" Hu Santong was surprised by the calmness of this little apprentice, "How did you forget about Master?"
Meng Yan asked respectfully, "Can you call the Xian family again?"
"Yes it can, but it takes two hours every other time."
Meng Yan thinks in a popular way of understanding, that is, this cheap master is a powerful summoner, but his big move has a long CD and can be used to deal with sudden dangers.
"In that case, you go with me first, and invite that fox fairy to come over in two hours, don't waste this opportunity." Meng Yan squeezed his chin and said, "I still have questions I want to ask."
"Okay." Seeing that his apprentice was so reliable, Hu Santong didn't say anything.
"Anyone else have any objections?"
Everyone shook their heads.
Meng Yan sent the two children back to the relatively safe room 402, stayed with their grandfather, and then separated in twos to explore floor by floor.
Ruishen and Zhao Jinfeng chose the third floor and the fourth floor. The man who has gone through countless dungeons has yet to recover from Meng Yan's disgusting stare...
The two walked to the corridor on the third floor and stopped at the same time.
"Is it a bad thing to always think about one person?" Ruishen was rarely confused.
He was also talking to himself and didn't expect Zhao Jinfeng to answer him, but Zhao Jinfeng gave the answer after thinking for a while.
"It depends on whether the person concerned needs your 'consideration'."
Rui sighed deeply, feeling that Meng Yan really doesn't need himself anymore.
He recalled when he was a boy, that bad-tempered kid at the same table was always abused and bullied by his classmates because of family reasons, and he would stand in front of each other every time, it seemed that taking care of Meng Yan had become an instinct.
He took Meng Yan into his own home, because the child lacked common sense in life, and insisted on changing himself from a classmate to an old mother. In his opinion, making decisions for this child who can cry secretly is a correct protective measure .
But he ignored the other party's growth...
Zhao Jinfeng said again, "If it were me, I would really hate it when someone restricts me."
"is that so."
But Ruishen really can't think of any other way to get along. In his thinking, this is the way of expressing "love".
Why do humans hate this kind of behavior? Look at the wild wolves who voluntarily follow humans. They are attracted by this kind of protection, and they don’t need to eat, sleep, and fight for their lives. That’s why they evolved into domestic dogs.
And so many domesticated animals in the world also rely on the shade of the breeder. Although they will be killed, the population reproduction is much stronger than that of wild species.
Ruishen himself grew up under such conditions. He didn't know how to show kindness to a person, so he could only silently do everything within his power for the other person, even if it seemed like imprisonment.
But the current situation made Ruishen have to recognize a fact.
Perhaps Meng Yan is different from ordinary people, he does not need a shed to shelter from the wind and rain, he is more like a plant with tenacious vitality, which can bloom fragrant flowers after breaking through all shackles...
"I don't know what's going on with the two of you, as long as it doesn't affect your survival." Zhao Jinfeng said with a straight face, "I still suggest you chase it back. There are not many people like Meng Yan."
Rui Shen?
How did you know?
"It's quite obvious, your eyes look like you want to eat him."
Ruishen sneered, "Why haven't I seen you talk so much before?"
Zhao Jinfeng said, "It is indispensable to set up the characters on stage. Let yourself look colder, lest useless people often bother me."
"Then Meng Yan and I are useful?"
Zhao Jinfeng nodded, "Both of you are very suitable to survive in the ark, but Meng Yan will suffer more than you."
Ruishen didn't know how this guy could tell, but he had to say that Zhao Jinfeng was very accurate at seeing people.
Meng Yan's character will make him suffer so much in this inhuman world, which is why Ruishen has abandoned his teammates mercilessly since the first dungeon. If he is smart enough, why let Meng Yan This kind of thing hates myself, isn't it good to pretend to be watertight?
He just wants Meng Yan to get used to it in advance. In Meng Yan's eyes, "unforgivable behavior" is just a common thing in the dungeon, such as eating and drinking. He believes that Meng Yan will understand him in the end.
"But I like the one like Meng Yan better." Zhao Jinfeng glanced at Ruishen, "You look like you have no idea."
Rui Shen replied with a hypocritical smile, "It's enough that I like him, and I don't need you."
The two walked around the third floor tacitly.
On the other side, Meng Yan checked the first floor together with Hu Santong and Lin Manshu.
He has always wondered whether there are any living people in this place other than the residents, whether what they saw at the front desk was a person or a ghost, and if it was a ghost, how could there be food for them to serve.
Also, how did this sanatorium maintain its operation, and how was it discovered by Wang Shiyu.
After all, this kind of remote cliff, if it were Meng Yan, he must not know that there can be buildings in this ghost place.
He was in front, Hu Santong was behind, and Lin Manshu was in the middle. The three of them were steadily exploring everything in front of them.
The first floor has a large area. In addition to the lobby and front desk, there is also a canteen, office, storage room, and utility room. They were surprised to find that the storage room was full of ingredients, but none of them were rotten, and they were all very fresh.
This is a bit abnormal. The Sunshine Sanatorium is so far away from the city, so they will definitely choose to buy in small quantities. The hoarded vegetables and fruits will definitely lose some water, but there is no such thing here.
Moreover, Li Guoqing's previous meals were delivered by someone, so where are the nurses who delivered the food and the chefs in the cafeteria?
Meng Yan felt more and more strange looking at it, and remembered the plane route of the first floor in his mind, so he went upstairs to check on the second floor.
The second floor is the office of the nurses and medical staff. Like the first floor, there is no one there.When the door was opened, there was a white coat hanging on a hanger, which looked particularly intrusive.
Meng Yan entered the director's office, casually rummaged through the drawers, and unexpectedly found a worn-out diary.
He opened it to check.
On July 1999, 7, the nursing home was completed. I should be happy. This is the life savings of me and the dean, but I always feel weird. I don’t sleep well at night. The voice, maybe the nerves are too tense.
Meng Yan's expression froze, and he immediately read it seriously, hoping to find some clues in it.
On July 1999, 7, the elderly resident said that he saw animals running in the corridor at night. How could this be possible? This is the coast.Maybe I shouldn't be greedy for cheap and buy this place to renovate, but the money was spent, and it's useless to regret it.
On August 1999, 8, I couldn't sleep well all night. The old people were always wailing at night, saying that something invisible was biting them, but I checked during the day, but I couldn't find any scars. Why did they Are you kidding me?I am under a lot of pressure, I hope the dean can find out the truth.I really regret it. I heard that this used to be the temple of the fishing village. I shouldn't tear down the temple. This is retribution.
September 1999, 9, last night I saw them, I saw them, they were nibbling my feet by the bed.Help, help, I can't get through the landline, and I can't get out the door, who can come and save me?
On September 1999, 9, I breathed a sigh of relief. The Li Group was going to acquire this nursing home. The dean and I both agreed to sell it to the Li family and take the money to go back to the countryside. Maybe this way we can relax. One point, no more galloping down the corridors with them.
September 1999, 9, this woman is a liar!Hahaha, I can't leave it anymore, I can't leave it anymore!
On x.x., 2000, the residents were in good condition.
On x.x., 2001, the residents were in good condition.
……
On September 2020, 9, the residents are in good condition, the woman said that there will be new people coming here, I am looking forward to it.
Seeing this, Meng Yan swallowed, turned his head and asked Hu Santong, "Master, what's today's date?"
Hu Santong's complexion was extremely bad, "September [-], [-]."
After half an hour, everyone returned to the hall to meet.
Ruishen was the first to speak, "The matter is more serious than I imagined. The third and fourth floors are all ordinary dormitory rooms. We opened the panel on the door and found that there were people living inside, but the old people have all gone crazy."
"Not only that, I found out that the brand of someone's clothes was ten years ago, and they are no longer available for sale. It is conservatively estimated that these old people have been trapped in nursing homes for ten years."
Wang Jing also said, "The fifth and sixth floors are also residents' rooms, but they are more luxurious. There is no one in them, but there are traces of use in the rooms, and there is a foul smell."
Ning Yuan looked bitter, "I've never smelled such a strong smell in my life."
Meng Yan rubbed his forehead and told his teammates what happened in the diary.
"What, this place was bought by the Li family? But isn't Li Guoqing here?" Ning Yuan didn't turn the corner.
"It's Wang Shiyu, our big customer." Meng Yan said helplessly, "She bought this place in the name of Slim Pharmaceuticals and Li's Group, but Li Guoqing didn't seem to know about it, which explains why Tong Wang Shiyu knew about such a remote place. What a hell place."
"Because this site was originally hers."
Wang Jing felt that the clues in her mind became even more chaotic, "Then why did she send Li Guoqing here? Isn't it impossible for residents to die here?"
"I don't know, I'm also in a mess right now." Meng Yan beckoned, "Let's go upstairs and ask Li Guoqing to clarify."
But Hu Santong stopped him, "According to what the Xian family said, we have to leave before nine o'clock. Let's find a way to get out now."
Meng Yan sighed in his heart, is there still a need to look for it? If you can go out before nine o'clock, this dungeon will not be called "six people high difficulty".
Seeing that the apprentice didn't listen, Hu Santong was furious, "Are you the master or I am the master, listen to me, find an exit!"
"Master, why are you so anxious?" Lin Manshu had an idea, "Call Daxian'er out in two hours, and let him tell you that it's okay."
It seems to be...
Only then did Hu Santong soften his attitude, "Let's go, first ask that old boy Li Guoqing."
When everyone returned to the fourth floor, they found that the grandpa and grandson were happily chatting together.
Ning Yuan was so angry that he went straight to Li Guoqing and said angrily, "This nursing home originally belonged to your Li family, what are you pretending to be with us!"
The old man was taken aback, obviously not understanding what Ning Yuan meant.
"My house?"
Meng Yan pulled the two children away and led them out of the door.
The interrogation in the house continued.
Meng Yan leaned against the wall and folded his arms, his eyes drifted to the bay window at the end of the corridor, "You two have been here before."
Yuanyuan hummed.
"Have you signed it?"
"No."
"Mom said it's not our turn yet." The little girl's tone was gloomy, and there was no light in her big dark eyes. "It's not our turn yet. Of course it won't be like Dad and Uncle."
What is this kid talking about? !
Meng Yan's eyes widened in surprise, "It's your turn?"
Seeing Meng Yan's surprised look, Yuanyuan smiled, "It will never be our turn."
Meng Yan wanted to ask again, but the little girl stopped talking.
And the people in the house did not find any clues.
Meng Yan opened the shutter of the opposite door, and found an old lady sitting inside, unkempt, with her head hanging down, mumbling something, and the door couldn't be opened, as Ruishen said, the living people here are crazy.
When he returned to 402, he felt that things had reached a deadlock, and the only way was to wait an hour for Hu Santong to call out the fox fairy again.
Squeezing his fingers, Meng Yan remembered the amulet that had scalded him before. Perhaps it was the existence of that thing that protected Li Guoqing from being attacked and causing mental disorders like other residents.
"Mr. Li, can you show me your amulet?"
Li Guoqing shuddered all over, and his eyes turned cloudy with age, "Farewell, it just went to the temple to ask for it, it's very common."
Meng Yan is not so good at fooling around, "I just borrowed it for a look, and I will return it to you."
But Li Guoqing still did not let go.
"Why so much nonsense." Ning Yuan tore off the hem of the old man's clothes, revealing a simple jade plaque from underneath.
Ning Yuan's eyes straightened when he saw this, this thing is definitely a life-saving prop in the dungeon!
He snatched the amulet, trying to stuff it into his pocket like holding a rare treasure.
As soon as the whip came, Ning Yuan's hand stopped.
It was Hu San who whipped him with the king's whip, "What are you doing?"
Meng Yan snatched the jade tablet from his hand, looked at it carefully, and found that the workmanship of this thing is not exquisite, and the jade material is not top-notch, and it really doesn't look like a carefully carved magic weapon.
"Where did it come from?" He shook the jade pendant in his palm a few times and asked.
Li Guoqing looked nervous, for fear that Meng Yan would drop something, and his old face was covered with folds. "I was weak and sick since I was a child, and my father begged me for a jade token. It was really just a random begging in the temple."
Meng Yan saw that the other party was hiding something, and sneered, "I said I would not steal your things, so you don't have to be afraid. The jade token you ask for can burn me and protect you from being attacked for so long. Do you think I will?" Do you believe it?"
Li Guoqing gritted his teeth and refused to say anything.
Meng Yan felt as if he had touched the key point.
He originally wanted to use the two children to persuade the old man to tell him everything he knew, but Ruishen had another way.
Ruishen took a few steps towards the old man, his faint pupils reflected the other's appearance, he just looked at him quietly.
Before Meng Yan knew what he was going to do, he heard the old man suddenly cry out in pain.
"Ahhh! What did you do!" The old man's face turned pale instantly, sweat rolled down his forehead, and the two children were also frightened behind Meng Yan.
The gods were all taken aback.
This seems to be a "skill", or it may be a prop, and it is the first time they have seen people around them use it.
"Say." Ruishen didn't explain, and continued to press the old man.
Li Guoqing only felt that his body was soaked by the cold tide, and the bone-eroding pain invaded from every bone seam, forming layers upon layers of endless torment. He had never been so piercing when he suffered from rheumatism. .
Meng Yan couldn't stand it anymore, but the old man couldn't help but tell everything like jumping beans in severe pain.
"I said! This jade tablet was indeed requested by my father. I was weak and sick since I was a child. He spent a lot of money to buy this piece to keep me alive. But he died soon after, and I don't know the meaning of the amulet. Specific origin!"
The severe pain subsided slightly, and Li Guoqing finally recovered his breath.
Ruishen nodded, "Your whole family is short-lived, and you are the only one who survived, probably because of this jade token."
Li Guoqing didn't dare to get angry, so he could only nod his head.
He couldn't even believe why Yupei didn't protect himself this time. Could it be that this young man's methods are more powerful than those invisible monsters?
"Interesting, Wang Shiyu said that your family's death is because you borrowed Yangshou, but in fact, your family's life is short. Is this just an excuse?"
Li Guoqing said, "Except for me and my two grandsons, there is really no one else in the Li family."
"Here, return it to you." Meng Yan returned the amulet to the old man.
Ning Yuan stared like a copper bell, "Why did you return it to him, this thing is a treasure, it can protect us!"
Meng Yan didn't even bother to roll his eyes, "What do you think Wang Shiyu went to all this trouble for? It must be for Li Guoqing. No matter what her purpose is, we can't let her succeed. Do you think you took the amulet away, old man?" Are you still alive?"
Ning Yuan was depressed.
"Isn't that exactly what that woman wants?" Meng Yan didn't want to ridicule him, but he still couldn't help but said, "Use your brain more in everything."
If they really snatched the amulet and let Li Guoqing die, it might cause unimaginable consequences.
In Meng Yan's mind, Wang Shiyu has already been regarded as the villain of the dungeon. If the villain's goal is achieved, players like them will generally not end well.
Li Guoqing hurriedly tied the amulet around his waist again, and heaved a sigh of relief.
Ning Yuan refused to accept it, but he didn't dare to confront Meng Yan because Rui Shen was there.
Ruishen's skill seemed very powerful, and he was on the same team as Meng Yan. He was hard to beat with two fists, so he had to hold back.
Lin Manshu saw that the atmosphere was not right, and it happened that two hours had passed, so she reminded, "Master, please invite the Great Immortal again."
Hu Santong was sitting on the sidelines, also a little flustered, he had never encountered such a situation.
Ordinarily, the list of Xianyuantang is either to check the mistress or to cure evil diseases. He has never experienced such an unimaginable incident. Even if he has a fairy family by his side, he has never had such a fatal time.
Hu Santong grinned, hating the woman who lied to him so much, he picked up the whip angrily.
King Wen's drum was played again, Daqian Ersha slid, and the singing voice from the mouth of the old god stick became much more powerful.
"Yinwu Xulongdang, Siyou ugly tiger man, Shen Zichen came up on the snake, and Haimao didn't find the sheep. When this pass was born, the master exclaimed that night crying is difficult to raise, and please open your eyes, old fairy family, to help the disciple break through. This short-lived pass!"
At the end of the drum beat, Hu Santong opened his closed eyes suddenly, and his whole temperament changed.
Li Guoqing had an amulet to protect his body, and the old man was weak and could not maintain the state of possession for a long time, so the fox fairy got on Hu Santong's body.
"Why don't you leave, do you think you have a long life?" Master Hu Immortal looked at Meng Yan and only talked to him.
Meng Yan once again felt flattered, "We are all trapped here, and we can't get out at all. I invite you here this time to ask you how to get out."
Hu Tianming smacked his lips, "It's really troublesome. I let Hu Santong become my apprentice, so that he can accumulate merit for me, not let him cause trouble for me, and then tell me to wipe my ass."
Meng Yan didn't know what to say.
"It's useless. When he goes out, I must change."
The fox fairy licked his mouth, "Meng Lang-jun, I think you are pretty good."
"It's important." Rui Shen said.
Hu Tianming snorted, and then sensed the building, "Hey, it's strange..."
"What's wrong?" Wang Jing asked anxiously.
"This place has been blocked by a force. Even with my ability, I can't open the passage for you." Hu Tianming was surprised that there is such a powerful method in modern society. "It's hopeless, wait for death."
Meng Yan! ! !
What about the strong NC that was promised, why are you so cheating! !
He gritted his teeth and asked, "Then can you help us find out the truth about the short life of the Li family?"
Hu Tianming said, "Oh, it's not surprising. His family believed in a cult before, and now it's their own fault."
"A cult again?"
"Grandpa Li Guoqing was still a countryman. In order to get rich, he believed in a cult, saying that it would ensure his smooth business journey. But everything has a price. How could such a good thing happen to just one person."
Hu Tianming blinked his beautiful and slender eyes, "Even us immortals need to do something for mortals in order to gain merit."
"What is the price the Li family has to pay?" Meng Yan asked.
"Break off children and grandchildren." Hu Tianming smiled.
"But Li Guoqing is still alive... He even escaped disaster by relying on this jade card, and gave birth to heirs, even grandchildren." Meng Yan said.
There was no sympathy in Hu Tianming's tone, "Isn't this being discovered, and the children are dying one after another. He thought he could hide for a lifetime?"
Hearing this, Li Guoqing, who had pretended to be calm, suddenly twisted, trying to break free from the rope.
"It's useless, and I found an interesting thing, that is, all his heirs died in order of birthday. Counting Li Guoqing himself, he was the third from the bottom."
Li Guoqing's face was livid, he was born in November, and the two children were born in December.
He didn't know what happened in the previous generation, but after hearing what Hu Tianming said, he understood everything!
Meng Yan was also shocked. Yuanyuan said that it was not their turn yet. It turned out that the two siblings were still safe because Li Guoqing was unable to die.
And... it was "mother" who told them about it.
"Wang Shiyu really has a problem."
Hu Tianming glanced at him, "Wang Shiyu, is this old man's daughter-in-law?"
Meng Yan nodded.
"No, she died long ago. She died after giving birth to two children."
In a word, Li Guoqing felt cold all over his body.
So who is Wang Shiyu now?
When the time limit was up, the fox fairy turned into a wisp of smoke and disappeared, leaving only Hu Santong who woke up from a drowsy state.
Right now, all the spearheads are pointing at the major customers of Xianyuantang.
Lin Manshu's mind was spinning quickly, she swallowed, and said in a panic, "Mr. Li, did the successive deaths of your family begin with the birth of two children?"
Li Guoqing almost breathed a sigh of relief, "It's really true when you think about it!"
"Remember, this sanatorium used to be a temple. I suspect..." Lin Manshu's back broke out in cold sweat, "I suspect that Wang Shiyu is a member of a cult. She pretended to be the daughter-in-law of the Li family and killed the Li family one by one. , and framed this matter to Mr. Li, saying that he borrowed his descendant Yangshou to trick us into a nursing home."
Meng Yan nodded, "Besides, she probably sent Li Guoqing to the nursing home on purpose. Because of the protection of the amulet, external means would not work against Li Guoqing, so she wanted to use the mysterious power in the nursing home, but she still couldn't kill him."
"She bought this place ten years ago, before it was Li Guoqing's death... maybe..."
Lin Manshu looked around, "This is the temple, the base of the cult."
Both Wang Jing and Ning Yuan had goose bumps all over their bodies.
Meng Yan thought more deeply, "Try to deduce it. A normal person enters this nursing home and finds something abnormal. What would he do?"
Normal people would really snatch the amulet like Ning Yuan to save their own lives. In this way, the barrier protecting Li Guoqing would disappear, and Wang Shiyu would be able to kill Li Guoqing, a person who shouldn't exist.
As for the previous waves of people, it is very likely that they were killed by the things here before they found the amulet, so Wang Shiyu wanted to find a few people who could hold on.
That is, their so-called "some skills" magic sticks.
Everything explained...
Meng Yan let out a long sigh of relief, "I can't get out, and I can't escape. In this case, we can only wait until nine o'clock for a real head-to-head confrontation. I want to see how difficult it is."
After sorting out everything, Meng Yan became very calm. He was never afraid to face the enemy head-on.
Everyone else was even more nervous and panicked, only Meng Yan seemed to have gotten rid of his troubles, and instead became a fool.
He put Erlang's legs down, twirled the pen on his fingertips a few times, and then threw the pen to his teammate, "Manshu, please integrate the maps drawn by everyone and draw seven copies."
"Old man." Meng Yan said as gently as possible, "After nine o'clock, no matter what happens to us, don't go out to check. Since the amulet can protect you for so long, it proves that it is powerful. The only thing you have to do is to continue to live. .”
Li Guoqing said hoarsely, "If you don't tell me, I will live well. If I die, my grandchildren will suffer."
Meng Yan nodded, and then said, "Teammates, there will be a tough battle at nine o'clock, are you ready?"
Few people answered.
Meng Yan was not annoyed either. "I don't think you are ready. I learned from the clues that invisible monsters may appear in the nursing home, and they are fast and will eat humans. Let's take precautions against this first."
Whether it was the content mentioned in the diary or what Li Guoqing said, they actually gave them hints.
"First of all, don't disperse at night, and don't walk around in the open area. It's better for us to gather in one room, so that the monster's range of activities is limited, and our attacks are easier to carry out."
As a female man, Wang Jing originally wanted to fight for the command position, but she was self-aware. Compared with Meng Yan, she felt that she was weak.
"Secondly, that is how to find new clues while persevering. Where do these monsters come from, and where do they go during the day? These are the points we need to pay attention to, and maybe we can find the exit."
"Finally, I hope that everyone will not use Li Guoqing's amulet. If we fight for it, we still have our lives to fight, but if the nc who needs protection dies, maybe the copy will be lost immediately."
Meng Yan's gaze stayed on Ning Yuan, "Do you understand?"
Ning Yuan suppressed his face and smiled, "As expected of the captain of the team, he speaks in the same way."
Through the map, everyone found a small but clean office. After leaving Li Guoqing and the two children in 402 and locking the door, they began to prepare for the challenge.
They collected the knives and cleaning utensils in the kitchen on the way. Meng Yan skillfully finished the artifact spear again, and handed it to the two girls, and the unarmed Ning Yuan.
Zhao Jinfeng refused the weapon because he had it himself. He put a very handy compound bow in his package, and he was better at using long-range attacks.
As for Ruishen, he doesn't need a weapon.
Meng Yan still remembered the devil's reply that "asking a person's dream envoy is equal to asking a person's size". He didn't want to ask about the opponent's ability at first, but this is a difficult dungeon, and he needs to know the strength of his teammates.
Ruishen didn't give Meng Yan a chance to be entangled, and directly said it himself.
"My dream envoy has already awakened, and her ability is relatively rare, but it is not suitable for the current situation." Ruishen didn't know how to explain his ability, so he simplified, "My blood has special effects, as long as it enters the enemy In the body, it will cause..."
"What caused it?" Lin Manshu was more curious than Meng Yan. She was a loyal spectator of the Ark competition, and she was also a fan of dreams.
Rui Shen looked up at the sky, as if staring at something, then waved for Lin Manshu and Meng Yan to come and listen.
"It will cause a death effect within three days."
Lin Manshu... Really, I think you're bragging.
She has watched the competition for three years, but she has never seen any one-hit kill stunt. This is too cheating, and the eyes of reason will not allow this kind of ability beyond the scope to exist.
"Believe it or not." Rui shrugged and whispered, "This is a secret."
Lin Manshu struggled, and felt that there was a little credibility again, because Ruishen's overly cautious attitude.
The game may be broadcast live on video, Ruishen is afraid of being broadcast, so he hides it like this. If Ruishen is a star god, then his ability will be well known by the public, and this super-line ability will definitely If you are the first to be targeted by the hostile team, the opponent will also take precautions in advance.
"No way..." Lin Manshu also knows many observers, but he has never met Ruishen, maybe Ruishen is so low-key because of this unassuming ability.
At the same time, she also understands that even teammates cannot tell about this ability, and if it is leaked out, it will be a disaster.Does Ruishen trust himself and Meng Yan so much?
Meng Yan had never been in the ark, so he was not surprised, but just clicked his tongue in his heart.Because the three-day incubation period is too long, it may be a magical skill against a single enemy, but it is useless against a group of mobs.
Whether these people can live to three days is a question.
"But you don't have to worry, I have my own props. The gift bag contains a spiritual sword, which can cause damage to supernatural beings." Ruishen patted Meng Yan on the shoulder, "I won't hold you back."
"Why are you so obedient?" Meng Yan teased him.
"Suddenly realized that it seems a little more relaxed to give the decision-making power to others, and to obey orders." Ruishen smiled at him.
Meng Yan was startled.
The smile...is very similar too.
It's just that it's not like what his ex-boyfriend can say.
This made him slightly change his view of Ruishen.
"I'm under a lot of pressure when you're like this. What if I make a mistake in command?" Meng Yan raised the corners of his mouth, and at first he acted like a good boy.
"You are always right."
"vomit."
Lin Manshu sniggered aside, why does this feel so much like coaxing a wife?
But Ruishen said it sincerely, he said it from the bottom of his heart, and it was not nasty at all.
Meng Yan was a little baffled by him, clicked his tongue a few times, and then began to arrange tactics.
The time in the office gradually passed, and it wasn't until Meng Yan said that he had nothing to say and finished explaining some precautions that the room became quiet.
All they could hear was the breathing of their teammates, and the crashing sound of the waves hitting the rocks.
As the setting sun gradually declined, the light in the nursing home became increasingly dimmer. Meng Yan turned on the lights in the office, and at the same time took out the flashlight he had found, making second-hand preparations.
Zhao Jinfeng's reaction was a bit more professional than Meng Yan imagined. He climbed to the top of the cabinet through the heating pipe in the house.The shelf here is very high, and Zhao Jinfeng's position is two meters above, which is the commanding height in the house.
This cool guy didn't say a word, but just changed a matte black compound bow from the package. The design of the bow body is very artistic, and the pulleys at both ends are very huge, which can achieve a very high labor-saving ratio, and the sight is also very good. Advanced, an insider like Meng Yan can see the way at a glance, this is a bow for competitive shooting.
Generally, the weight requirements for accurate shooting bows are not very high. Only the bows that are often used by foreigners for hunting require large weights. However, according to experience, Zhao Jinfeng's bow weight is not small, and adult men who have not been trained may Disaster
