Was it him? Who did he make a deal with?
Soon, Shen Yue knew the answer. She saw No. 75 kneeling in front of the coffin, constantly saying something, but the distance was too far for Shen Yue to hear clearly.
Soon, something floated out of the coffin.
The distance was too far, and Shen Yue couldn''t see clearly what it was. She could only see that it seemed to be white.
But No. 75 quickly took it and put it away, appearing very devout.
These two people didn''t stay in place for long, they quickly left.
Shen Yue was also about to leave. She didn''t plan to go forward to check the coffin, but she could guess. What was inside must be connected to this village, to the ghosts in this small world.
She just didn''t know how No. 75 had managed to make a deal with these ghosts.
As expected of an old guest.
Shen Yue suddenly thought of Zhou Tongtong, this girl was Chen Si''s girlfriend, ordinary-looking, introverted, a person without much presence. Wang Chuxue had already been used for their deal, what about Wang Chuxue''s boyfriend Lin Le? And Zhou Tongtong, were those two with her, or were they hiding from her, would they make a move on Zhou Tongtong?
Shen Yue thought about it, but didn''t go to warn or save anyone.
She quickly returned to the stone house, and as soon as she entered, she saw Fan Quguang.
"You''ve come at the right time, I was just looking for you. Come, I have something to tell you," Fan Quguang said with a serious face.
Shen Yue was also planning to tell him about Wang Chuxue, so she followed him to a secluded spot.
After making sure no one was around, Fan Quguang revealed a scared expression and said in a low voice:
"Do you know? Last night I saw that Lin Le is already dead."
"Dead?!" Shen Yue was shocked.
"Yes, last night I couldn''t sleep, and I saw that little ghost again. The little ghost led me next door, and as soon as I got there, I saw Lin Le step into the coffin. That Chen Si and Lin Le''s girlfriend, what''s her name, Snow something, the two of them couldn''t hold him back."
Shen Yue: "No wonder."
So Lin Le was already dead, that''s why Wang Chuxue was left alone, no wonder she became their target.
"No wonder what?"
"You go on first."
Fan Quguang didn''t waste words and continued: "Then I saw that coffin swallow Lin Le and then move back to the center of the room on its own. That Snow girl collapsed on the ground, and was later helped back by another girl. That Chen Si and that old guest No. 75 also went back together."
"After seeing all this, I wanted to go back, but that little ghost seemed to want to take me somewhere else. While I was hesitating, I saw that guy No. 75 come out again."This content has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.
Shen Yue listened attentively.
"No. 75 was also acting strangely, walking straight towards the coffin that had just swallowed Lin Le. I thought he was also being controlled, but unexpectedly, he knelt down in front of the coffin and was saying something."
Fan Quguang shook his head: "This guy, he wasn''t noticeable in the apartment before, but to be able to survive until now, maybe it''s not just luck."
"What else?"
Shen Yue asked curiously.
"That''s it, I''m not as bold as that guy, I quickly went back to hide under my covers," Fan Quguang said hurriedly.
Hide under the covers...
Shen Yue was a bit speechless.
"Didn''t that little ghost want to take you somewhere? You didn''t go?"
Fan Quguang showed a trace of discomfort: "That little ghost looking for me in the middle of the night, I was scared to death, and after seeing Lin Le''s death, who would dare to follow it? Oh! But, that, that little ghost, seeing that I wouldn''t go, just wouldn''t leave."
He seemed to remember something: "The little ghost wouldn''t leave, it even followed me under the covers, you don''t know how scared I was when its face poked into the covers..."
Shen Yue couldn''t hold back anymore: "Can you get to the point?!"
Fan Quguang quickly said: "The little ghost''s meaning was that the exit of this world is at the back of the mountain, saying there''s a coffin there, it''s her? It''s where a ghost lives, this ghost will kill everyone, those villagers are already living dead, controlled by her."
"The little ghost told you so much?" Shen Yue was puzzled, "It''s so small, it can talk?"
Shen Yue obviously didn''t believe it. Although the little ghost was scary, it hadn''t really harmed anyone.
But the little ghost clearly couldn''t speak. Shen Yue hadn''t heard it say a word. How could it have said so much to Fan Quguang?
Fan Quguang''s face showed a trace of embarrassment.
"Hey, did you use that furball? Is that how you got this information?" Shen Yue asked.
As soon as they entered this world, that furball was taken back by Fan Quguang.
Fan Quguang shook his head, fumbled in his pocket, then pulled out a few... candies?
"This? Where did you get candy from?" Shen Yue was really surprised this time.
"Shh, I brought these from the apartment, I used the furball, no, let''s just call it furball, I used the furball to bring them in. You know, the apartment has everything," Fan Quguang said as he put the remaining candies in Shen Yue''s hand.
Shen Yue''s mouth twitched: "How old am I... So you''re saying, you used candy to placate the little ghost?"
"You could say that. Before, that little ghost was always scaring me, tugging at my pants when I ate, following me when I went to the bathroom, I couldn''t stand it anymore, so I took out a candy and pretended to drop it on the ground."
Fan Quguang covered his forehead, seeming to have a headache: "But that little ghost ate one candy and wanted a second, it followed me even more closely than before. Although it can''t really speak, it''s very smart. Later it would even climb on me to look for candy on its own. Maybe because I gave it candy, it warned me of danger and told me the location of the exit."
Shen Yue nodded, unwrapped a candy and put it in her mouth.
The sour-sweet taste stimulated her gums, making her face immediately scrunch up.
"Cough! It''s a bit sour," Fan Quguang held back his laughter and warned.
"What I''m more curious about is, you''re a man in your forties, and you carry candy with you?!" Shen Yue''s eyes were full of surprise.
"Personal habit, personal habit." Fan Quguang smiled sheepishly and changed the subject, "Now''s not the time to worry about candy. Since we know where the exit is, we should hurry to get out."
"I know that, but if the time isn''t up, even if we find the right location, we still can''t get out. Also, I need to tell you, not just Lin Le, but his girlfriend Wang Chuxue is also dead."
Shen Yue told him what she had seen, and after hearing it, Fan Quguang clicked his tongue: "That''s ruthless."
Shen Yue took the opportunity to raise her question: Was No. 75 doing this to increase his own chances of survival?
"You''re not wrong. Actually, those guests in the top 50, when they enter the small world, unless they''re a team, they''ll always end up killing each other. Because we come in as nourishment for this world, either there''s enough nourishment and sometimes the space door will automatically take you back to the apartment, or in reality, after my hand was injured, relying on this precious furball, I survived to the end in several small worlds, only leaving with others at the last moment."
"So that''s how it is." Shen Yue understood.
"However, the situation in each small world is different, so we can never be certain."
Shen Yue suddenly remembered something and asked: "By the way, have you seen Kun Yao?"
