Chapter 16 The Burial Ground (2)

In the following time, Qingshan Cuiying gave full play to his excellent social skills and got a lot of information from this group of NPCs.

For example, the lively and lovely girl who went upstairs to call them to eat was named Xu Shirui, and the other three present were her father Xu Wenbin, and her two older brothers Xu Zhengchu and Xu Zhengyuan.

For another example, they are currently Xu Shirui's college classmates, and Tongsheng Village is Xu Shirui's hometown.

As for the reason why they appeared here... it was Xu Shirui's invitation to come to this remote village to collect scenery during the summer vacation.

"Shirui tells me every year when she goes home that she has received a lot of care from you at school."

The middle-aged man Xu Wenbin narrowed his eyes and smiled, "It's rare for you to come here this time, and it just gave me a chance to thank you all."

"You speak too seriously." Qingshan Cuiying had a gentle expression, "This is what we should do."

Xu Wenbin laughed and said, "You kid, you can really talk."

"Look at me, I'm just talking to you guys, the food is going cold."

As he spoke, he picked up the serving chopsticks and porcelain bowl, and picked up a piece of chicken drumstick for each of Chi Yu's five, "Come, how about Shirui's mother's cooking."

Chi Yu didn't move his chopsticks in a hurry, but looked up at Xu Wenbin and said, "Why don't you wait, Auntie hasn't come yet."

"By the way." Qingshan Cuiying also remembered something, "Auntie, why haven't I seen her?"

"My mother is still in the kitchen."

This time it was Xu Shirui who answered, "The soup is cooking, I'll be here soon."

"Then let's eat after Auntie arrives." Qingshan Cuiying laughed.

Xu Wenbin said disapprovingly: "At that time, the dishes will be completely cold...I'll ask Zhengchu to urge her."

He said and waved to his eldest son, "Zhengchu, go call your mother."

Xu Zhengchu muffled "Hmm", turned his head and walked out the door.

"Don't just watch, eat the vegetables and eat." Xu Wenbin picked up the chopsticks and put a bean in his mouth.

Seeing this, Cuiying in Qingshan gave Yueluo Wuhen a wink imperceptibly.

"Then we won't be polite." He held up the porcelain bowl in front of him with a gentle smile.

With his demonstration, the other four couldn't refuse any more, picked up the bowls and chopsticks, and started to eat.

Just as Chi Yu took a bite of the chicken, the system beeped abruptly.

[Although ordinary drugs can't have much effect on players above level five, for you and the little girl beside you... Excessive intake will still lead to coma. 】

Drugged?

Chi Yu's biting movement paused, and he didn't know whether to spit it out or swallow it.

In fact, as early as when she first met Xu Shirui, she had already doubted him... because in her eyes, a dim "light cluster" was flickering slightly on Xu Shirui's chest.

Just like those porcelain puppets in the last dungeon.

However, when Chi Yu asked the system about "Xu Shirui's real identity", the answer he got was: [She is a girl who grew up in Tongsheng Village, and she has nothing special except that she is smarter. 】

Xu Shirui's matter hadn't been figured out yet, the two dazzling lights downstairs, and Xu Wenbin's overly enthusiastic attitude added a bit of doubt to Chi Yu.

She knew that this family must have some other purpose... But she never expected that they would be so bold as to directly put drug in the meal.

Why on earth are they doing this?
What kind of grievances and grievances do the characters played by the players have with the Xu family?
And... do all the creatures in the dungeon appear in the form of "light clusters" in her eyes?

Countless thoughts flashed through Chi Yu's mind instantly, and under the cover of the porcelain bowl and palm, he spit out the chicken in his mouth smoothly and naturally.

She leaned back slightly, quietly observing the reactions of her teammates.

Perhaps out of caution, Qingshan Cuiying and Yueluo Wuhen only tasted the food on the table.Xiaoyao Luan next to him was boldly chowing down on the vegetables, but he buried the piece of chicken that Xu Wenbin had picked up earlier with the food.

They should all have discovered the anomaly, only...

Chi Yu glanced at Belludante who was unaware.

Since Xu Wenbin was watching from the opposite side, it was not easy for Chi Yu to remind her, so he could only let her develop and resign herself to fate.

Until the end, the players didn't see Xu Shirui's mother, but Xu Zhengchu brought over the pot of soup she had cooked. It was milky white and exuded a strong aroma.

After eating, Xu Shirui led everyone back to the second floor and arranged a bedroom for each of them.

"It's getting late, you guys have a good rest, and tomorrow we'll go outside the village to collect folk songs." Xu Shirui waved to them with a smile.

"Good night, I wish you all have a sweet dream."

After she left, Xiaoyao said in an inexplicable tone, "What a polite child."

The blue-clothed green shadow was silent for a moment: "... Judging from the content of the conversation just now, this group of NPCs will not provide clues related to the bloody case if they don't take the initiative to ask."

"What do you think we should do next? Should we go down and question them now, or...wait for a while?"

Chi Yu raised his head and stared at him for two seconds.

Xiaoyaoluan still said indifferently: "I don't care, since you have an idea, just follow your idea."

"Then everyone go back to their rooms and rest for a night."

Qingshan Cuiying looked at the clock hanging on the wall, "If there are no accidents, we will gather in the first room at six o'clock tomorrow morning to discuss the next step."

"Okay." Xiaoyao responded indiscriminately, then turned and walked towards his bedroom.

"Then... I'll go first too?" Belludante summoned up her courage and said.

Ever since she entered the dungeon, her nerves have been tense. When she heard that she could take a rest, she felt relaxed and drowsy.

After getting the green-clothed emerald shadow's approval, Beilu Dandi secretly glanced at the girl beside her.

Seeing that Chi Yu didn't respond, she lowered her head and left in a little disappointment.

Accompanied by a soft "bang dang", only the three of Chi Yu were left in the corridor outside.

Cuiying in Qingshan and Yueluo Wuhen were about to turn around when they heard the girl's cold voice.

"You want to use her as bait?"

The two of them turned their heads at the same time, and saw Chi Yu's eyes as black as ink.

Faced with Chi Yu's "question", Qingshan Cuiying did not defend herself: "This is the best way to promote the development of the plot and draw out potential dangers, isn't it?"

Seeing his indifferent expression, Chi Yu couldn't help frowning slightly.

Only then did she realize that the reason why Hua Feinian said "Death Flag" was not just to amuse the three newcomers... but also to remind them cryptically.

——Not all players are as "kind" as her.

Chi Yu pursed his lips, and continued to ask: "Why don't you directly force those NPCs to tell them the clues?"

Qingshan Cuiying raised her eyebrows, and looked at her with "Are you serious" eyes: "First, they may not know the inside story of the case. Second, even if they know, they may not tell us the truth .Third, even if they tell the truth, we cannot tell whether they are hiding something."

"Compared to interrogating the group of NPCs and getting information that is not sure whether it is true or not, and whose integrity is not guaranteed, I am more willing to trust my eyes." He pushed down the frame with the second knuckle of his right index finger.

"Also, since the system has arranged the plot of 'prescribing drugs', it must have a deep meaning. If you skip it directly, it may increase the difficulty of customs clearance."

"I say... do you understand?"

"Of course, you explained it very clearly." Chi Yu still had no expression on his face, "Can I ask one more question?"

Before Green Gown and Green Shadow could answer, she continued, "If a player dies in the dungeon, what will happen to her in reality? Vegetative? Everything is normal? Or...will she also lose her life?"

This time, the person opposite was silent for a long time.

"...He doesn't know." Yueluo Wuhen next to him replied in a deep voice, "No one knows either."

"It's like... no one can tell us whether there is a soul after death."

Qingshan Cuiying answered, "Those who know the answer are dead, and those who are alive... will never be able to touch the truth."

"It is precisely because of this uncertainty." Yueluo Wuhen said, "Every time we enter the instance, we will go all out to find a way to pass the level."

"Even if... you have to exchange the future of others for your own hope of survival."

Chi Yu looked at them quietly.

And they looked back calmly.

After a while, Chi Yu said softly, "I can't criticize your actions, because I share the same philosophy as you."

"But a person I met not long ago once told me with actions... On the premise of ensuring your own safety, you should also do your best to help those teammates who deserve help."

Yueluo Wuhen raised his brows and eyes slightly: "You mean..."

"I basically agree with your 'seeing is believing' theory, but before using teammates as bait... you must at least ask for her consent first?"

"Do you think she will agree?" Qingshan Cuiying recalled the poor performance of Belludante when she first entered the dungeon, and couldn't help feeling suspicious.

"As long as we promise to keep her safe in the dark...why not?"

"And, if I'm not mistaken...you didn't mean to let 'teammates' die in vain, did you?"

As Chi Yu said, he turned around slowly, "Since most of you left her with a negative impression, leave the task of negotiating with her to me."

"Taking advantage of this time, you can call Xiaoyao over here, and discuss in advance how to deal with the next crisis."

Looking at the girl's slender but straight back, the emerald green robed figure remained silent for a long time.

"What do you think of her proposal? Do you want to try to trust that newcomer?"

Yueluo Wuhen turned to look at his companion, "Just like when you chose to believe me back then."

Hearing this, the corners of Qingshan Cuiying's lips curled up: "Don't you already have the answer in your heart?"

"This Chiyu, should I say that she is too naive...or too transparent..."

he sighed softly.
