Looking at the white card in front of them, everyone was stunned.

"..."

Xu Hui: "This should be a prop, right?"

Shao Feng couldn't help swallowing, "Probably...it seems to be."

A trace of surprise flashed in Cheng Xuyuan's eyes, "Su Ji, you are lucky. Such an occasional situation can be encountered by you."

As soon as the words fell, the card instantly turned into a ray of light.Then, a pair of scissors exactly like the one pictured on the card appeared in Su Ji's hand.

The scissors in front of me are ordinary, except that they are heavier than ordinary scissors, there is no difference.Even using the game's item query function, I couldn't find any more useful information.

It is obviously a plot prop, but it looks so ordinary, which makes Su Ji a little disappointed.

Shao Feng picked up the pair of scissors, looked it over and over again, and asked, "What are these for?"

Xu Hui was thoughtful, "This prop is called 'marriage scissors', maybe it is used to cut the marriage line?"

"Marriage line?" Shao Feng scratched his head, "Isn't that Yuelao's job?"

Xu Hui shook her head, "I don't know either, it's just a guess."

After all, Shao Feng's note said marriage with Yin, and there is a pair of scissors that can cut the marriage line. It is hard not to connect these two things.

"The boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge. If you don't know now, you will know later."

Putting the scissors into his backpack, Su Ji said, "I believe we are not far from the truth."

The night of the ghost talk game is always full of uncertainty and danger.Although Su Ji had established a good relationship with Ah Xiang, the three of them still didn't dare to stay outside too late for safety reasons.

After discussing the division of labor for tomorrow, Su Ji and his party left 205 and went back to their respective rooms to rest.

Su Ji's room is at 309 on the easternmost side of the third floor, not in the same direction as Shao Feng and Xu Hui.

After parting ways with the two of them, Su Ji always felt like a pair of eyes were staring at him closely behind her back.

After improving his five senses, his senses in this area also became more acute.

This is being tracked?

Thinking about it, Su Ji bent the corners of his lips.It's really interesting. When he was an anchor, he didn't "enjoy" the treatment of being followed by illegitimate fans, but he didn't expect to experience it when he came to the ghost talk game.

But even if he is being followed, he is not in a hurry. Rouxiang can always attract fly bites, which shows that he has very important things in his hands.

Since the other party just followed instead of choosing to act immediately, it proved that he was still under observation and did not dare to act rashly.

When he reached the door of the innermost room, he stopped, lowered his head and pretended to take out his room card, but actually took off the silver bracelet from his hand.Through the reflection of the light in the corridor, he saw two sneaky figures on the smooth inner surface of the silver bracelet at the corner not far away.

With his strengthened five senses, he could easily tell that these two figures were male.

Nine out of ten people who will follow him are players, and the purpose of following him is probably for the rewards he got at night, so the scope is narrowed again.

Thinking about it, Su Ji casually glanced at the dark corner, then opened the door and entered the room.

Seeing Su Ji enter the room, Erpi and Shanzi who were hiding in the dark immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Just now, they almost thought they had been discovered.

"Erpi, do you think the thing in that kid's hand can really save our lives?"

"Since Brother Feng said it is possible, then it will be possible. Let's just do it." Er Pi paused, then looked at him suspiciously, "Shanzi, why are you thinking so much?"

Shanzi looked at him deeply with his head down, and said in a low voice, "Do you really believe Brother Feng will save us?"

Erpi couldn't react, "...what do you mean?"

"There's only one thing, and it's on that little boy's body."

In the world of travel and adventure, the most dangerous ones are not necessarily the monsters in the original world, but NPCs like tour guides.

Especially for players like them who failed to fully pass the NPC mission test, if they want to survive, they can only find a way to complete the main storyline and leave early.Otherwise, they might have been beaten to death by the tour guide before they passed the task time.

But if you want to avoid detours and quickly crack the main line, you need plot props.However, such things as plot props can only be obtained by completing the tasks issued by the guide.

They hid outside the door of 205 to eavesdrop on the group of people talking. Although they couldn't hear any key content because of the sound insulation of the room, it is certain that the reward that the player named Su Ji got was plot props.

"There are too many monks and too little porridge."

Shanzi looked at him with burning eyes, "Monk, what do you think Brother Feng will do after he gets the things?"

Hearing this question, Er Pi was stunned, "You mean..."

"Brother Feng is using us."

Shanzi lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled the smoke ring, "Brother Dong and Brother Feng have been together for so long, and now Brother Dong doesn't react at all without him. Do you think we can get Dong Brother's little finger?"

The scene was suddenly silent.

After a long time, Erpi asked, "Then what shall we do?"

Shanzi held a cigarette and remained silent.After a while, he threw the cigarette butt on the ground and crushed it, and said in a deep voice, "People don't kill themselves for their own sake."

Upon hearing this, Erpi's eyes widened slightly, "Shanzi, what do you mean..."

Shan Zi didn't answer, just stared at him right and wrong.Er Pi was a little hairy from his staring eyes.

Seeing the terrified look in front of him, Shanzi suddenly smiled, "Look, I made you nervous, and I didn't tell you to get rid of him."

Erpi was stunned when he heard the words.

Shanzi continued: "It's just a trick to make him unable to go tomorrow. If he can't go, doesn't that thing belong to us?"

"How about it, do you want to do it?

Seeing Shanzi's fierce eyes, Erpi couldn't help swallowing, and subconsciously nodded, "Damn it."

Hearing this, Shanzi smiled in relief, "I knew you would agree."

Er Pi subconsciously lowered his head when he saw it, and he didn't know whether it was shame or fear.

Shanzi raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, and said earnestly, "Erpi, I know what you're thinking. But playing games is not doing charity. If we don't think about ourselves, no one will think about us."

As he spoke, he paused, and his voice became lower: "Do you want to die here and leave your father paralyzed in the hospital without anyone to take care of him?"

"..."

As if he had hit the nail on the head, Er Pi's expression changed, and he pursed his lips tightly.Compared with the previous hesitation, now his face was replaced by determination.

Seeing this, Shan Zi patted him on the shoulder again, "Just figure it out."

"Here, everything can be given up. Only survival is the most important thing."

……

309 indoors.

Seeing the two people leaving the corridor on the screen, Su Ji silently closed the game panel, and took off an anime sticker in the shape of eyes from the wall.

[Common props: Kazilan's big eyes]

[Explanation of props: Eyes are the window to the soul and an essential tool for creatures to look up at the world.This is a monitoring prop created by the main god of the game by drawing inspiration from the girl comics of the last century.Stick it on any flat surface and you have a smart monitor.You can have a panoramic view of everything within a radius of 20 meters. 】

[This prop is a sustainable prop, and the number of times it can be used is unlimited. 】

It seems that they are not completely of one mind.

Rubbing the marriage scissors in his hand, Su Ji narrowed his eyes.

There will be a good show next.

Near seven o'clock in the morning, players began to appear in the lobby in twos and threes, yawning.

After waking up so early for two consecutive days, everyone is a little bit out of spirits.Only those traveler NPCs are as energetic as ever.

Su Ji and his party were still the last to arrive.Looking around, there are quite a few players this time.that is……

"Brother Feng...your face!"

Shan Zi pointed at Feng Daxiang's face, his face was too terrified to speak.

Hearing the sound, the players turned their heads one after another.With just one glance, almost everyone gasped.

Although Feng Daxiang did have acne on his face, it was not as exaggerated as it is now.

Dozens of red blisters the size of soybeans suddenly appeared on Feng Daxiang's cheeks, forehead, nose and chin!At first glance, it looked like he had some serious infectious disease.

Subconsciously, a large vacuum suddenly appeared around him.

Looking at himself in the mirror, Feng Daxiang opened his eyes wide in horror, and tried to touch the blisters on his face with trembling hands.

Just a moment, a sharp pain hit instantly.

"Ouch!"

He clenched his teeth, not daring to touch it again.

After the shock, shame and anger followed: "What the hell is going on?!"

As soon as the scolding fell, the tour guide appeared on the spot.

Probably because the tour guide was there.No matter how frightened and uneasy he was, Feng Daxiang didn't dare to make a mistake at this time.

Regarding Feng Daxiang's strangeness, the tour guide didn't seem to notice it, and reported the passenger list again like yesterday morning.This time, no one was absent.

"Very well, no one is late or absent today."

Putting away the form, a strange smile appeared on the tour guide's lips, and he didn't know whether he was satisfied or not.

"Today is the day when Luo's grandson gets married. There are many wedding matters, and the whole village will help. It's not too late, let's go."

Hearing this, the players did not dare to neglect, and quickly followed in the footsteps of the tour guide.

Seeing that everyone was leaving, Feng Daxiang hurriedly followed.Just as he was about to get on the bus, a red guide flag stopped him immediately.

As soon as he changed his previous state of ignorance, the tour guide said blankly, "You, stay. You don't need to go."

Hearing this sentence, Feng Daxiang was startled.

Everything that happened in front of him seemed to exceed his expectations.He finally couldn't take it anymore——

"Why?"

The tour guide suddenly became angry, "You still ask me why? On the day of great joy, did you go there with this face to help or to make trouble?"

After finishing speaking, the tour guide pushed him out of the car without any explanation, "Hurry up and get out!"

Feng Daxiang was angry and resentful, but he had nothing to do, so he had to leave.

"It's really bad luck!"

After driving away Feng Daxiang, the tour guide got into the car cursing.

"set off!"

I saw Feng Daxiang being chased away by the tour guide like a bereaved dog.Sitting in the bus, Erpi lowered his head and said nothing.And Shan Zi's eyes showed a triumphant smile.

After a while, the watch on Erpi's hand suddenly vibrated.A message from Feng Daxiang popped up.

He didn't seem to give up, and wanted to use this to contact Er Pi who was sitting in the car.However, Er Pi ignored Shan Zi's gesture.

Taking everything into his eyes calmly, Su Ji silently turned his head and looked forward.

At this time, the tour guide, who seemed to be suffering from bipolar disorder, had returned to his previous unsmiling appearance, and began to announce the next itinerary——

"In addition to traditional Miao festivals such as the Year of Miao and April [-], weddings are the busiest time of the year in this village."

"There are generally four steps in a wedding, which are pre-marriage, wedding, wedding and crying marriage."

Speaking of this, the tour guide paused, his narrowed eyes flashed with unknown emotions, "And today we will experience these four steps completely."

Looking at the half-smile eyes of the person in front of them, the nerves of the players suddenly became tense.

"Follow the process and help the bride and groom complete the wedding."

The voice of the tour guide echoed on the bus, and it was obviously loud but it couldn't help but make people feel creepy.

"Otherwise, you will all die in the future."

Hearing the words "death by accident", the faces of the players changed slightly, but the passenger NPCs in the car were still talking and laughing as if they hadn't heard it, as if they were blocked by something.

After looking around at the faces of the passengers with a smile, the tour guide returned to the co-pilot seat as if nothing had happened.

Looking at his back, Su Ji was thoughtful.

Since entering this world, this is the first time that the tour guide has completely exposed his desire for the player to die.He had a bad attitude before, but this time he was a blatant threat.

But it would be understandable if the tour guide was on the opposite side of them from the start.

Just like the previous world, due to the limitations of the game, these NPCs may not be able to do anything to them at first.

But with the passage of time and the advancement of the plot, the authority they obtained has become greater and greater.

Especially when these players trigger the death game arranged by the game, they will also become more unscrupulous.Perhaps it is precisely because of this that the guide tore off the mask of previous camouflage.

Thinking of this, Su Ji narrowed his eyes.

really……

As Cheng Xuyuan said, getting plot props is not entirely a good thing.Because danger is likely to follow.Although he didn't know exactly what would happen next, he guessed that the next four wedding links might not be peaceful.

The bus galloped all the way and soon arrived at its destination.

Unlike the place Su Ji went to yesterday, Lao Luo's grandson does not live with him, but lives in the westernmost part of the village.

When they got out of the car, everyone saw a lot of local people in national costumes rushing in and out.

In the yard, men pounded glutinous rice cakes with sledgehammers.The women are busy cutting window grilles and preparing dishes for the wedding banquet.It seems that the whole village has come to help.

"In Qianshan Miao Village, every family has something to do. The whole village helps out, and so does the wedding banquet."

The tour guide helped the earbuds, picked up his identity as a tour guide again, and began to explain: "The glutinous rice cake we see now will be used in welcoming relatives later."

"According to the local custom, one thousand catties of glutinous rice cakes are made on the day of welcoming the bride. It means perfection and reunion."

The tour guide was explaining in this room, and a middle-aged man led a young man in a fancy dress over in the other room.

Cheng Xuyuan whispered: "The older one is the village head, I met yesterday. The one next to him should be the bridegroom from the way he looks."

The groom's official name is Dong Bo, and he looks plain and honest.Seeing the people in the brigade, he first said with a smile, "Welcome to Qianshan Village as a guest", and then politely distributed wedding candies and red eggs to them.The enthusiasm of the attitude made the players a little embarrassed.

However, this feeling of guilt did not last long.

Because next, the players were divided into two groups by him, the men went to make glutinous rice cakes, and the women went to help in the kitchen.

This made everyone feel like they had been tricked into some black-hearted factory and forced to work, and they didn't get any money.

The female players are fine, there are many people helping in the kitchen, and they can't do the hard work. The most they can do is to wash the vegetables and light the fire.

But male players are miserable.

Making glutinous rice cakes is physical work, even if it is beaten in groups and batches, it can't hold up to a large amount.

Even Shao Feng, who usually pays attention to fitness and strength training, finds it difficult to do this kind of work.Not to mention the sports scumbag Su Ji.Within ten minutes after the hammer was raised and lowered, Su Ji already felt that his arm was not his own.

Cheng Xuyuan, an otaku, was not much better, he was already out of breath after only dozens of hammerings.Just when he was about to be lazy for a while, a sentence came from beside his ear——

"If you can't finish the glutinous rice cakes, the wedding cannot be held on time."

Looking at the big brother of the Miao nationality in front of him, Cheng Xuyuan hesitated slightly, smiled silly and then lifted the wooden stick.

Erpi and Shanzi who were in the other group glanced at them, then lowered their heads and went on working without saying a word.

While the male players were working hard in the yard, Xu Hui on the other side was lowering her head and peeling potatoes while eavesdropping on the chatting of the mothers-in-law and aunts in the kitchen.

"If you want me to say, Dongbo is really lucky to be able to marry such a beautiful and capable girl as Yinxiu."

"Isn't it?" A woman with a mole on the corner of her mouth said: "That girl Yinxiu is the most beautiful girl in our village. She has a good personality. If Dong Bo didn't get ahead of her, I would still want to help us. The kid at home is talking about matchmaking. What a pity."

As soon as this remark came out, the others laughed.

"What a pity. There are no fragrant grasses anywhere in the world. Aunt Liu, your family, Ayong, is a good-looking talent. Do you still worry about not finding a good girl?"

"Yes."

After a group of people praised so much, Aunt Liu seemed to feel at ease, and then she was hypocritically polite.

"No matter how good our family Ah Yong is, it can't compare to Dongbo. He is the grandson of Mr. Luo. Even if he is not relative, he has been with him for so many years, right? Mr. Luo has no children. In the future, his land Don't you have to return to Dongbo?"

Upon hearing this, the kitchen fell silent.

Xu Hui squatted in the corner and watched coldly, and saw some unnatural expressions flashed across the faces of these women.For a while, the scene was a little awkward.

Looking around at the people around, Bai Feifei asked hesitantly: "So Dong Bo is not Luo Lao's grandson?"

There were low coughing sounds in the kitchen one after another.Seeing that no one answered, she could only shut her mouth resentfully and pretend nothing happened.

At this moment, a shrewd woman walked in from the door. She glanced at the kitchen and pointed to Aunt Liu and a few other women to set up dishes, tables and chairs outside.

The departure of a group of people seemed to take away the awkward atmosphere, and the kitchen became lively again in an instant.

At this time, a young woman sitting next to Bai Feifei raised her head and whispered to her, "Mr. Luo is not married and has no children. He is an old widower. Dong Bo is an orphan he picked up in the mountains."

Hearing this, Bai Feifei nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

On the side, Xu Hui lowered her eyelashes, silently peeling potatoes.

I heard the young woman continue: "I heard that Mr. Luo once married another when he was young, but that one left early. Before the wedding is over, she is gone."

Hearing this, Xu Hui paused and raised her head to ask, "Why are there no people?"

It seemed that Xu Hui, who had been taciturn all this time, would suddenly speak. The woman and Bai Feifei couldn't help being stunned.

After a while, the woman reacted and shook her head, "I don't know about that, it's all about my grandparents."

Hearing this, Xu Hui lowered her head regretfully.

I thought I could find out the cause of Ah Xiang's death.Sure enough.

At this moment, a sentence came from beside my ear——

"but……"

The woman paused and continued: "I heard that after that one left, Mr. Luo found a few more, but unfortunately none of them succeeded. One time, they were about to get married, but the marriage ended again at the close of the door."

Upon hearing this, Bai Feifei couldn't help asking: "Why?"

Seeing that someone is interested, the woman gets more excited.She beckoned and motioned for the two to come over.

Xu Hui and Bai Feifei subconsciously leaned over when they saw it.

"I heard that it was the one in front who caused the trouble."

The woman lowered her voice and said, "She left early and couldn't let Lao Luo go, so she has been refusing to let him get married."

Upon hearing this, Xu Hui frowned.

Bai Feifei was interested in such topics, "Is it true?"

"of course!"

As if afraid that they would not believe the woman, she couldn't help raising her voice slightly.But then she seemed to realize that her volume was too loud, and hurriedly lowered her voice and said, "I'm afraid you don't know, there have been rumors of ghosts in our village for a long time."

"Every July and a half, many people will see a female ghost in a wedding dress wandering around in the village at night, saying that she is looking for embroidered shoes. Everyone says that this female ghost is the one in front of Mr. Luo. I successfully married Luo Lao, so I feel regretful."

Hearing this, Bai Feifei couldn't help but gasped.

Xu Hui was very calm, and asked, "And then? The village is haunted by ghosts, and you haven't invited anyone to see it?"

"Why not? It's useless to read."

"The ceremony that should be done is also done, and the one that should be burned is also burned, but that person will still appear."

After peeling a potato, the woman said: "It's better to have one more thing than one less thing. After all, it's the one in front of Mr. Luo, and the other party didn't do anything to us, so everyone will get used to it over time. Just don't collide. "

Xu Hui didn't say a word, just doing the work at hand silently.

Bai Feifei nodded, and seemed to think of something for a while, "Speaking of which, today happens to be July 7th in the Gregorian calendar. And the wedding doesn't happen to be..." As she spoke, she couldn't help rubbing the goose bumps on her body.

"What are you talking about, you little girl?"

The woman interrupted her dissatisfied, "Can the Gregorian calendar and the lunar calendar be the same? This is the auspicious day that Mr. Luo specially asked someone to calculate! Dongbo and Yinxiu are getting married in these few days. It's great."

Xu Hui felt speechless. It's no wonder that she would be criticized for saying such unkind words at other people's weddings.

"She's joking. The little girl is young, so she has nothing to say." Putting down the peeled potatoes, Xu Hui wiped her hands and smiled lightly. It's excellent."

Xu Hui resolved Bai Feifei's predicament with a few words, and the woman stopped criticizing her.Seeing this, Bai Feifei glanced at her gratefully.

It was already afternoon when a group of people prepared the dishes for the wedding banquet.

After finally getting the hard-won free time, Xu Hui had no time to rest and went outside to meet Su Ji and the others.However, I searched around and didn't see any of them.

Not only Su Ji and the others, even the two male players who were with Feng Daxiang yesterday disappeared.

What the hell is going on here?

Just when she was about to walk back, she suddenly heard a few violent coughs coming from a house not far away, as if she was about to breathe in the next second.During the period, there were voices of Dongbo's concerned inquiries.

"Grandpa, why didn't you take your medicine?"

"Drinking medicine is useless, it's an old problem."

An old and weak voice came from inside the wall, "Dongbo, you are an adult when you get married. You will live a good life with Yinxiu from now on, you know?"

"Understood, Grandpa." Dong Bo scratched his head, "I am no longer a child."

After coughing a few times, Lao Luo took a puff of the dry cigarette. The white smoke was pervasive and steaming, making it hard to see the expression on his face.

Seeing that he didn't say a word, Dong Bo glanced at the medicine bowl and said: "Grandpa, this medicine is cold. I'll go and heat it up for you to drink again." Then he picked up the medicine bowl and wanted to go out.

"and many more."

Luo Lao stopped him, "Take this."

Looking at the pair of old embroidered shoes in front of him, Dong Bo was startled, "This is..."

Putting down the cigarette stick and knocking the ash on the ground, Mr. Luo lowered his eyes, "This is your grandma's favorite embroidered shoes. The ugly daughter-in-law hasn't seen her in-laws yet, so let her meet the new daughter-in-law, it's a meeting gift."

Dong Bo heard that he had no doubts.After receiving the embroidered shoes, he nodded, "Okay, I understand." After speaking, he was about to leave.Seeing this, Xu Hui quickly hid in a corner sideways.

At this moment, Luo Lao's heavy breathing came from the room again, "Wait a minute."

Dong Bo stopped in his tracks, and turned his head in confusion, "What's wrong, Grandpa?"

"No matter what happens, don't lose the embroidered shoes."

Seeing Luo Lao raised his head, his cloudy and yellow eyes stared at him without blinking, "You must remember."

Looking at the very serious old man in front of him, Dong Bo was stunned.

"Grandpa, what do you mean by that?"

As if he didn't understand the meaning of Grandpa's words, Dong Bo asked puzzledly, "I'm just going to greet my relatives, what can I do?"

Luo Lao didn't answer, but turned his head to look at the gloomy sky outside the window, "It's raining at night, so let's leave early tonight."

……

Outside the fence, listening to the conversation between the grandparents and grandchildren.Xu Huiliu frowned, thoughtfully.
