I Rely On Poverty To Sweep Through Survival Games

The man in the black vest standing at the front stretched out his hand and pulled open the old gate. The rusted part of the gate made an overwhelmed "creak" sound, and reluctantly opened it.

After that, an old and dirty corridor appeared in front of the players.

Like the elevator, the corridor was dilapidated and mottled, the walls had peeled off, and there was a layer of thick stains accumulated over the years everywhere, exuding an unpleasant smell.

At the same time, there is also a system prompt:

"Ding-dong-"

An ugly voice sounded: "Four-day-end-"

The sound dragged on for a long time, like rotten old wood, and it made the eardrum feel uncomfortable when it entered the ear.

The players looked at the corridor ahead and understood that this was the scene of the game.

And four days is the time for this game.

The moment the elevator opened, the mother and daughter left without looking back. Their footsteps were hurried, and their backs quickly disappeared around the corner of the corridor.

The players stepped out of the elevator one after another, and the irregular footsteps of a group of people echoed in the narrow corridor.

Xiao Lan observed the surrounding environment. There were quite a few doors on both sides of the corridor, all of which were tightly closed.

The doors all looked old, scratched and dusty.Some of them were pasted with faded New Year pictures and door gods, and almost all the metal parts of the doors were rusty, and some even roughly wrapped the locks with iron wires.

It looks like no one has lived in it for a long time.

Apart from the footsteps of a few people and occasional conversations in the corridor, there was no other sound.

The corridor is narrow but twists and turns. After several turns, the players finally found an open door in front of them. Dim yellow incandescent lights spilled from the door, bringing a little warmth in the cold corridor.

It seemed that he heard footsteps, and a person came out from the door.

It was a thin middle-aged man, one eye should have turned gray due to illness or injury, and the other eye stared at the players with a piercing gaze.

"Hey..." The middle-aged man smiled sullenly, and scanned the players around, "I am the landlord of 404, and you are the ones who reserved the room, right?"

Players can only nod along.

"Four days later..." The smile on the middle-aged man's face deepened: "You will definitely have the most unforgettable party in your life."

Players are tempted to spit on the characters they play.Did this group of people think that life was too long? They actually came to this kind of place to gather. The last gathering in their lives was of course very unforgettable.

Since ancient times, no one has died in life, but you can't die if you don't work. Why do you have to take the initiative to speed up this process?

The landlord turned around and entered the door. Although the players wanted to refuse, they had no choice but to follow.

The moment before entering the door, Yujie, who is dressed in red and curly with black hair, approached Xiao Lan, and warned softly: "Don't just trust the person who asks to form a team. The better the words, the more you don't believe them. It's your life."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Xiao Lan to answer, he left with a cold expression on his face.

This seems to be a person with integrity in his mouth. He looks indifferent and difficult to get along with, but in fact he has been reminding the players in the same field not to trust others easily.

Looking at her tall back, Xiao Lan frowned slightly, why did she come here to warn her a second time, the last sentence seemed to mean something.

Are you implying that there is something wrong with He Rui?

The game hadn't officially started yet, but Xiao Lan felt a sense of crisis lurking in the dark.

-

After entering the door.

It looked as cramped and dilapidated here as the outside.

The walls were mottled and peeled off, and the inner bricks were exposed in some places. There was still a lot of water seeping from the ceiling, flowing down the wall, and staining large areas of mildew on the wall.

It was midsummer in the game at this time, and the hot weather coupled with the humid and stuffy air created an unpleasant smell in the room.

The originally small interior was divided into many rooms again, each of which was equally narrow, judging from the occasional room with the door open, the sundries inside were piled up in a mess.The doorknobs of many rooms were wrapped with iron wires, as if they were not going to be opened again.

Only a few rooms still look like they have been inhabited.

It seems that many people should have lived here, but I don't know why these rooms were vacant or even locked.

The landlord stood in front of a room, beckoning the players to come over.

He pointed to the room and said, "Which one of you lives in this room? The upper bunk is broken, so there is only one person to live in."

The room can barely accommodate one person, and there is an iron bunk bed.The upper bunk was piled with dusty debris, and the bed was surrounded by a checkered fence covered with rust.

There was a faint smell of rust in the air, and it looked just like the poultry cages in the vegetable market.

It is conceivable that people will feel very uncomfortable if they sleep in it.

"Let me do it." Hongyi Yujie directly chose this room.

The landlord took out a small notebook, raised his piercing eyes: "Name."

"Wu Ting." The lady in red replied.

The next few consecutive rooms were in a similar state, old and bunk beds that were narrow, piled up with debris, and surrounded by fences.The players also knew that the man in the black vest was named Li Haokuan.

Xiao Lan and Luo chose the only double room.

It is said to be a double, but it is only because the upper and lower bunks in this room are still intact, the space is not much larger than the others, but there is an extra window for ventilation.

Xiao Lan stretched out his hand and shook the iron frame bed which seemed of suspicious quality. The iron frame bed made a feeble "creak..." sound, as if warning him that it would go on strike if it went on like this.

Xiao Lan was suddenly very thankful that Luo didn't need to sleep, otherwise this broken bed might not be able to support the weight of two grown men at all.

On the other side, Luo stretched out his hand to try to close the door, and the door suddenly made a "pow--".

Xiao Lan couldn't hide her surprise and turned around: "You still fart?!"

Luo: "..."

Following Luo's movements, Xiao Lan discovered the extraordinary talent of this door, and he also stretched out his hand and dragged the door a few times, so:

"Poor-"

"Porphyrin—"

"Porphyrin - porphyrin -"

A series of rhythmic farts sounded, full of presence in the room with poor sound insulation.

"Damn it! Who the hell is farting!"

"Woke up my sleep, there's no end to it!!"

I don't know which room's grumpy neighbor let out a growl.

Xiao Lan then withdrew his hand without further ado, and this irritable old man might rush out if he continued playing.

He turned to look at the room. There were many old posters on the walls of this room, and the star Xiao Lan hardly recognized them.The posters were all facing the direction of the bed. If the lights were turned off, it might look like a dense blur of ghosts.

There is a small ceiling fan on the top of the room, and for some reason, there is a rope hanging from the ceiling fan.

The rope is very old hemp rope, I don't know how long it has been on it, the color is a bit black, and the stains on it are almost integrated into the hemp rope.

Xiao Lan pointed to the hemp rope: "This...could someone have hanged himself here?"

"According to the quality of this fan, it may not be able to bear the weight of a person at all." Luo thought for a moment and added, "Of course, except for children, but children can't reach this height, unless...an adult puts him Put it on."

Outside the window is the same fake city as Terminal Supermarket.

The breeze blew into the room, shaking the hemp rope slightly, casting elongated shadows on the wall, as if someone was playing on it.

While it's possible that the twine was left hanging by the previous resident, it could also be a death trap, and it's just not sure whether it's more dangerous to keep it or throw it out.

After thinking for a while, Xiao Lan decided to tear this thing off and throw it out.

Anyway, there is a half-and-half chance of keeping your eyes sharp.

-

When it was time for dinner, the landlord called everyone out for dinner.

Only then did the players see several other residents here.

A pregnant woman who looks very silent and keeps her head down almost silently; a couple who can't wait to cling to each other; there is also a man who looks godlike, and keeps saying "God will punish you", "Quickly reflect on your sins", like a cultist.

The mother and daughter I met in the elevator before did not appear at the dinner table. Could it be that they live somewhere else?

The table is full of red meat, cut into different shapes and soaked in different colors of paste.Although the npcs ate with gusto, looking at these half-cooked dishes, the players felt a little sick to their stomachs, and sat around the table without moving their chopsticks for a long time.

At this time, the couple who looked like conjoined twins became restless:

The woman brought a chopstick to the man's mouth: "Baby, open your mouth, ah—"

Man: "Baby, why is it so delicious when you give it to me~"

Woman: "It's disgusting, damn~"

Man: "It's not because my baby is sweet!"

The woman looked shy: "Oh, you're so naughty~"

Players: "..."

Damn, why do you still have to eat dog food after entering the game, it's so greasy! ! !

On the other hand, Xiao Lan said that she has a good degree of acceptance of Humu.

He looked like he was eating very well, making one almost suspect that his sense of taste had failed.While Xiao Lan was eating, Luo skillfully replenished his bowl to maintain a state of material conservation in the bowl.

Damn, you also come to join in the fun!

Seeing that the friendly army has fallen, although the players still have doubts in their hearts, they still try to pick up the food.Although the taste of the dishes is not very good, these are actually the taste of beef.

They finally breathed a sigh of relief.

-

After eating, Xiao Lan felt that she was sweating all over.

Although he didn't do any strenuous exercise, the sweltering weather and the poorly ventilated environment made the whole room 404 feel hot and humid.

There is no bathroom in the player's room, so whether you want to take a shower or go to the toilet, you must go to the public area outside.

As a human being, Xiao Lan couldn't not only not sweat at all, but also clean herself at any time like Luo.He had no choice but to take out the change of clothes and bathroom supplies that Luo had prepared before from the storage space, and head towards the bathroom.

At the same time, he refused Luo's request to show him the door, which was also... too strange.

The light in the bathroom was dim, flickering from time to time overwhelmed.

The inside was also divided into several small compartments, and the door panels only covered most of the middle.Through the bottom of the compartment, the outside ground can be seen.

The tiles on the wall have turned yellow and cracked, and moss is still growing tenaciously in the gaps. Under the nourishment of the daily bath water, there is a tendency to grow stronger.

Simply, the amount of water is still large, and the water temperature is also suitable.

Bathing in the hot water, Xiao Lan felt comfortable all over.Suddenly, there was a faint sound outside, which was not very real under the cover of the sound of water.

Feeling wrong, Xiao Lan turned off the shower.

At this time, the voice became clear.

"pat-"

"pat-"

It was the sound of slapping a ball on the wet ground. The crisp sound of the ball hitting the ground was mixed with the sound of water splashes of different sizes.

The voice became clearer and clearer every time, as if someone was slapping the ball and heading towards Xiao Lan step by step.

However, there was no corresponding sound of footsteps.

"pat-"

"pat-"

The sound of hitting the ball suddenly stopped, just outside Xiao Lan's door.

Xiao Lan saw a small red leather ball slowly rolling towards him in the half-meter-high gap under the jerry-built door of the bathroom, and finally stopped at the door near Xiao Lan's side.

There was no one outside the door.

But the voice suddenly sounded: "Brother, can you help me pick up the ball."

The child's voice is crisp and soft, and it belongs to a child who has not yet started to change his voice. It is difficult to distinguish the gender from the voice.

Seeing that Xiao Lan didn't answer, the voice continued: "If brother doesn't want to, I can come in and get it myself."

This time, there was a little innocent smile in his voice, as if he was expecting something.Imagine with your ass what would happen if you really let him in.

Xiao Lan glanced at the empty bathroom door, then looked up at the shower.

Very good, the shower head can be taken off.

So, Xiao Lan raised her hand to pick up the shower, and after making some adjustments, turned on the water to the maximum.Then he pointed the shower head at the little leather ball—and sprayed it out.

The wet little ball lay alone on the floor.

The ghost outside the door: "..."

Xiao Lan retracted the shower and said flatly, "You're welcome."
