[Infinite] End Game

"—Squeak!!" There was a sound.

The voice was sharp and sharp, especially harsh in the silent empty night.

Si Yan's first reaction was to turn around and pull Tang Yu, but in an instant, not only the temperature, but also the air was sucked out.

At this moment, the entire mourning hall seemed to be wrapped in some kind of heavy liquid like mercury, and a huge pressure was holding them tightly, as if to squeeze out the little air left in their chests.

It was difficult for Si Yan and Tang Yu to move. In the entire mourning hall, there was only the sound of fingernails scratching the coffin, which became more rapid and louder, as if the things inside would burst out of the coffin at any time.

As for what's inside, they don't have to guess.

Si Yan puffed up his face, holding back the last breath of air in his chest, and pulled Tang Yu desperately. The two of them turned red from their necks to their eyes.

Seeing that the last few sparks in the lamp were about to go out, and the sound of scratching the coffin was extremely violent, the child kneeling on one side suddenly jumped forward, and his arms fell on the ground in a circle, blocking the ever-burning lamp with his body.

The child pursed his lips tightly, and his face quickly turned pale. Just when his lips were also purple from the cold, the remaining sparks bounced tenaciously for a few times, and finally lit up again, converging into a small The flame fell on the wick, and the lamp was re-lighted with a "swoosh".

And as the flames stabilized, the tingling sound of scratching people's scalps in the black coffin also subsided.Tang Yu exhaled forcefully and moved his stiff fingers. He felt that the coldness and suffocation that had frozen his blood just now were like hallucinations.

Si Yan rubbed his arms vigorously, and blurted out: "Damn—did you almost get cold just now?"

Tang Yu took a deep look at the boy who had got up and returned to the straw mat, and knew that he had saved him.

Although I don't know why, but after this experience, neither of them dared to delay any longer, and after hurriedly returning to the room, Si Yan sat on the sleeping bag and said with lingering fear: "This fucking family buried a rice dumpling! I came out in a hurry and didn't have time to get a donkey's hoof."

As he spoke, Si Yan pushed Tang Yu and asked, "When do you think that thing will pop out?"

"I don't know..." Tang Yu shook his head, "But if those two lights don't go out, they should...can't come out for a while."

"So..." Si Yan smacked his mouth, thought for a while, and then said, "How much food do you have left? Find a way to continue flirting with that child during the day tomorrow."

Tang Yu was a little surprised. He felt that the two of them were attacked just now because he was close to the boy, but Si Yan said seriously: "It was difficult for us to move our fingers just now, but the kid can Keep the lights down, if something happens in the future, maybe you have to rely on him, it’s better to build a good relationship now than to hug your thighs first, ah, it’s a pity I didn’t bring in big bubble gum, children love to eat that.”

Tang Yu: ...

The truth is the same, but just now who said that NPCs are not human, don't you think the attitude has changed a bit quickly?

That conversation was still chattering, but Tang Yu thought of something else when he heard it, so he patted him and said to him, "Blow out the candle."

The candle was right next to the young man, Si Yan was stunned for a moment, and then reached out to take the candle very cooperatively. He swallowed back the words he had babbled before without any effort, and changed into: "What did you think of?"

Human beings are phototropic animals. Since humans have mastered fire, light has represented warmth and safety. Therefore, the more people are not arrogant and the more they are in the dark, the more they yearn for light.

It's just after seven o'clock now, and the news broadcast hasn't even finished. It stands to reason that it's not time to turn off the lights.But Tang Yu recalled that when he stood on the steps of the main house and looked out, the whole village seemed to be dark.

— Except for these people, there was no light in the whole village, including the main house.

This discovery made Tang Yu feel a little uneasy. He didn't know if "lamp" would have a special meaning in this dungeon, but when he shared his thoughts with Si Yan, Si Yan also agreed to the proposal to turn off the lamp. He decisively blew out the candle.

After the rain, the clouds were kept very low, and it was not known whether there were no stars or they were covered. In short, after the lights were turned off, a large piece of darkness overwhelmed the two of them.Tang Yujing paused and said, "Where are the others..."

"I can't care that much." Si Yan shook his head, his voice was flat, "It's very likely that you will be attacked if you go out now. Is other people's lives more important than your own?"

Tang Yu didn't speak.

Si Yan sat in the dark silent for a while, then sighed, and said: "After all, turning off the lights is just a guess between the two of us, and nothing has happened yet, and the hostess of this house came to send us a gift in person. Even if you say it can be lit, no one will believe it. But if you are really worried, the best you can do is to tell the couple next to us—the wall is not soundproof, you don’t have to go out, just shout that they should can hear."

As he spoke, Si Yan raised his hand and tapped on the wall next to him twice.But Tang Yu thought about it, but said, "No need."

He recalled it for a while, and said with certainty: "I took a look before entering the door, and the next door itself is dark."

Speaking of this, the two exchanged a look in the dark, both feeling a little strange.But I thought that the woman had been pale during the day, maybe she just went to bed early, so I didn't continue to think about it.

Tang Yu turned over on the kang, lay flat on the sleeping bag, stared at the dark ceiling, trying to clear his mind.Just after he lay down properly, a small furry head popped out of the sleeping bag, quietly walked to Tang Yu's pillow, curled up and lay down.

Tang Yu's brows and eyes were soft, and he stretched out his fingers to scratch Gouzi's head twice, then turned his head and gently closed his eyes.He was already prepared for a restless night's sleep, but in fact, he woke up amidst the faint morning light and the faint sounds from the next door.

Si Yan was sleeping next to him, with his mouth slightly open with a happy face, and a watermark on his cheek.The teenager's sleeping appearance was very bad, his hands and feet were still outside the scope of the sleeping bag, and the hair band he had been wearing before entering the dungeon was also brushed aside by him, and the candle that was blown out last night rolled under Si Yan's feet, Because I only ordered it for a while, it didn't consume a lot.

Tang Yu didn't bother Si Yan, but sat up and listened to the voice next door silently.I only heard the woman say in a dissatisfied and anxious voice: "How long are you going to stay in this bloody broken place? There is no one you are looking for here! I am so stupid to accompany you out!!"

The man's voice came out after a while, although it was deep and vague, but there was a deep certainty, he said stubbornly: "...But, I really dreamed of her."
