Gu Lou has already used up two cards, leaving only one seemingly useless card.

S (item card): super bright flashlight, blind your eyes! (use time limit 1 hour)

Gu Lou is not sure that he can find the right thing, he can only take a gamble.

Dense scarecrows came out from the depths of the forest, they were like ghosts floating in the humid forest, their faces without facial features were facing Gu Lou.

"It's kind of creepy..." Jiang Guilu said, "They are afraid of lights, what's the reason?"

"The opposite of darkness is always light." Gu Loudao, "I called three two one, and then—"

"run!"

Gu Lou turned around and ran away, the flashlight went out immediately, Jiang Guilu reacted for two seconds, and immediately chased after him: "Gu Xiaolou, you have grown up, you dare to fool me!"

It has always been Jiang Guilu's patent to be the first to break the rules without saying hello, but he didn't expect to be imitated by Gu Lou, Jiang Guilu felt ashamed.

The two ran all the way, and the scarecrow was always not far away from them, even getting faster and faster, and was about to catch up with them!

Never fall short...

Gu Lou's throat was fishy and sweet, his breathing became more and more rapid, his eyes began to darken, and his fingers were cold.

All of them are sequelae left over from childhood. The doctor diagnosed that because the child was too young, his bones were not fully developed. As a result, he suffered an accident that fell into the water for 3 minutes and no one rescued him. He will not be healthy in the future and must be more careful than ordinary people. Diet and life.

Gu Lou's vision gradually blurred.Suddenly, Jiang Guilu seemed to sense something, turned his head to look at him, and suddenly stopped.

He saw that Gu Lou's face was pale and he was almost out of breath.

Gu Lou could no longer continue running like this fast.

"Gu Lou, I'll stop them." Jiang Guilu said, "You go to find something, it doesn't matter if you walk slowly, come back earlier, huh?"

The sound was like a thunderbolt splitting the chaos in Gu Lou's mind. He slowly turned his head to look at Jiang Guilu, and pressed out from the depths of his throat: "No—"

So many scarecrows...

"I can't help it. It seems that one person must be kept." Jiang Guilu shrugged and said indifferently, "But they won't do anything to me, have you forgotten?"

"Time is running out. In order to go out together, you have to work hard." Jiang Guilu said seriously, and he turned around to face the scarecrow.

But you don't know...

What does it mean to lose the game——

Gu Lou opened his eyes wide and saw Jiang Guilu kicking down a scarecrow, but there were countless scarecrows behind him.

Unlike what Jiang Guilu said, after leaving the village, the Scarecrow attacked indiscriminately. Can Jiang Guilu deal with one, two, five or six?

It all boils down to frame after frame of almost brutal slow motion.

Gu Lou gritted his teeth and ran forward desperately. The long-term lack of exercise caused his hypoxia to be very serious, but he didn't stop, he didn't dare to stop.

Before the crisis of life and death, Gu Lou finally encountered the first hurdle.

If he can't get over the hurdle, he will lose not only his own life, but also the friends who grew up with him.

Finally, a stream appeared nearby, only less than 100 meters away. It turned out that they were so close to it.

Gu Lou rushed over, the sound of the rushing water broke into his ears that could not be ignored, and the dark and cold stream gradually turned into some childhood experiences before his eyes.

The children laughed and pressed him into the water, everything turned into fear of life...

Gu Lou's hands trembled, he raised his head, panting loudly, trying to shake those cold memories away from his eyes.He stood in front of the creek, trembling all over, but finally he bent down and fished out a dilapidated scarecrow from the shallow creek less than half a meter away.

There were several scarecrows behind Gu Lou who had escaped from Jiang Guilu's obstruction and rushed towards him. When Gu Lou picked up a wet scarecrow, all the scarecrows froze in place as if the pause button had been pressed.

They have no eyes, but Gu Lou felt a strong sense of gaze, all the scarecrows were looking at him, and the scarecrow in his arms.

He was right.

When Gu Lou came out of the stream, his sleeves dripped into the water, but he didn't feel the cold at all, his soul was already soaked in the cold.

Seeing that the scarecrow was no longer moving, Jiang Guilu let out a long breath.He pressed his arm and found that the bleeding was not serious, so he left it alone.

"Let's go back quickly." Gu Lou said, "Can you hold on?"

"Don't worry, nothing will happen to me." Jiang Guilu said with a smile, "I'm your Brother Jiang."

"It's a good thing you found it." Jiang Guilu changed the topic, not wanting to dwell on this issue any longer.He held the scarecrow and looked over and over again, wondering, "Why are you looking for this?"

"Among the notes kept by the village chief for generations, there is a very important one. It says: They have been used for too long, and the effect is not as obvious as before." Gu Lou showed a warm smile in his eyes, "For those who have no effect What is the most used practice of people?"

He didn't wait for Jiang Guilu's answer, and finished speaking in one breath.

"It's lost."

"I've been wondering what the villagers did wrong to make the scarecrow angry and steal things that are important to them." Gu Lou said, "Nothing is immortal, unless it is something that is endless."

"In Zhuge's era, straw boats borrowed swords to create scarecrows. Later people were content with the status quo, and gradually forgot their gratitude to scarecrows, and even threw them away."

"So what the Scarecrow stole is what they've lost all their lifetimes—"

As he spoke, Gu Lou's voice stopped at the most critical place.

Gu Lou stopped in his tracks.

He heard the voice of the system, and when the voice finally reappeared, what he brought was not joy, but a sense of absurdity that "it really is like this".

"Player Gu Lou has won, do you want to withdraw from the novice knockout round?"

They haven't completed the final step, and haven't recovered what the villagers lost, how can they win?

The expression on Gu Lou's face changed several times, and finally he settled on a possibility.He stood there quietly and finally sighed.Jiang Guilu asked, "What's wrong?"

"No, nothing." Gu Lou shook his head and replied, "We should go back."

They continued walking towards the village, and the dawn had gradually appeared.

When Gu Lou and Jiang Guilu left the village, Liu Cheng hid in the house.

He made preparations early, blocked all the tables and chairs at the door, and made up his mind not to go out without saying anything.

The noise of sparrows rustling outside was disturbing, but Liu Cheng couldn't help showing a relieved smile.

Finally made it to the last day.

Liu Cheng clicked on the mission panel, his game mission was completely opposite to that of Gu Lou:

Game mode: 1v1 knockout

Game task: In order to prevent sparrows from eating wheat, the farmer made ten scarecrows.Many, many years later, the scarecrow became a spirit, and they stole something from the villagers.Player Gu Lou wins if he finds that thing, please do your best to prevent Gu Lou from finding that thing.

1. Do not use force against player Gu Lou.

2. The game mode of the player Gu Lou is a two-player puzzle game.

3. The player Liu Cheng wins even if the sparrow eats up all the wheat.

In addition, Liu Cheng has a small map, and the house on the map is drawn with a small red circle, showing it as a safe area.

Gu Lou didn't figure this out, he didn't understand why the scarecrow didn't come out on the first day, but came out the next day, and Liu Cheng went straight to hide in the room.

Liu Cheng concealed this. He knew that the scope of the safe zone was constantly shrinking. As long as he hid in the house, he was safe.

Today the safe zone has shrunk to a small room, Liu Cheng decided to hide until the sparrows leave.

He calculated the time in his heart, and secretly hoped that Gu Lou would die outside, so that he could win faster.

With hope in his heart, when he looked at the system panel again, his eyes widened in horror: "This is impossible!!"

While Gu Lou went deep into the forest with one foot and one shallow foot, the safe zone on Liu Cheng's map gradually shrank and finally disappeared.

"How could the safe zone disappear!" Liu Cheng roared, "There is a problem with this game!"

"Kuuuuuuuuu!" A big hole was forked out of the flimsy wooden door, and Liu Cheng stared at the door stiffly.

The tall scarecrows standing at the door had no face, and they forked the door mercilessly.

"Don't come here! Don't come here!!" Liu Cheng retreated violently. He was tearful and crawled everywhere, but he was stabbed in the heart.

"No..." Liu Cheng said painfully.

The scarecrows were about to continue moving, but they all stopped at a certain moment. A new hope arose in Liu Cheng's heart: it was Gu Lou!It must be Gu Lou!Hurry back and save him!

Liu Cheng clutched his chest and tried to crawl out, but his strength gradually faded away, and his health had dropped to a critical point.

"Why..." Liu Cheng murmured, but before he could say the last word, he died quietly.

He could no longer hear the reminder that he was eliminated.
