PFC Chapter 529 Fatal Game 3
Chapter 529 Fatal Game 3
An Ruoyu thought that this NPC probably didn't understand human emotions yet, but it was very good at imitating them.
He probably even racked his brains to figure out what it's like to praise someone and act.
No, it should be that he was originally programmed with the ability to be a drama queen.
Thinking about it, she found it kind of interesting.
Ling Jiushi added, "You are indeed very capable."
"I've just practiced some self-defense techniques and I'm a little stronger."
Ruan Lanzhu said, "These will give you more protection inside the sect."
Getting married isn't all about brute force; luck and brains also play a crucial role.
Most importantly, he had just seen the wolf's brain tissue shatter, so he was convinced that she was indeed very strong.
An Ruoyu nodded: "So what should we do now?"
“Come on, follow me first,” Ruan Lanzhu said.
On the way, Ruan Lanzhu was different from the character in the story. She talked to them about the game beforehand and then asked about their names.
"My name is An Ruoyu."
"An Ruoyu? Is that you?" Ling Jiushi asked with some surprise.
An Ruoyu looked puzzled: "Who are you?"
"I am Ling Jiushi!"
"What a coincidence, so this is an online friend meeting."
"It's quite a coincidence; I didn't expect it either."
Ling Jiushi was genuinely surprised, while An Ruoyu was simply a good actress.
Ruan Lanzhu said, "You two know each other? My name is Ruan Baijie."
Ling Jiushi: "Bai Jie, why does that sound like a girl's name?"
"Of course it's a fake name. Could it be that what you were talking about... what you just said was your real name?"
As Ruan Lanzhu finished speaking, she realized what was happening and looked at the two of them with surprise.
If it weren't their real names, the two wouldn't have recognized each other as soon as they heard their names.
“Of course it’s my real name,” Ling Jiushi nodded, and An Ruoyu agreed.
"Don't you know that it's best not to use your real name within the sect?" Ruan Lanzhu looked at them as if they were complete novices.
“Now I know!” An Ruoyu said. Of course she knew that people were treacherous, and she had only mentioned the name on purpose for the two of them to hear.
Ling Jiushi still looked like he didn't think there was anything wrong.
As they walked, the three of them saw a burly, dark figure with his back to them.
Ling Jiushi spoke up: "Hey, there's someone up ahead."
“He’s also someone who’s been introduced to the family,” Ruan Lanzhu explained in a low voice.
Xiong Qi turned around and looked at them: "New here?"
An Ruoyu and Ruan Lanzhu remained silent, but Ling Jiushi answered him, "I suppose so."
"Just call me Xiong Qi. This is the third time we've entered the village. The rest of you should go back to the village and gather first."
"Nice to meet you, Ruan Baijie, this is my fourth time marrying into your family."
"My name is Ling Jiushi, and this is my first time marrying into the family."
"An Yu, this is your first time."
"Two newcomers, come with me," Xiong Qi said, walking forward.
“You should learn from this; you’re the only one who uses your real name,” Ruan Lanzhu said to Ling Jiushi.
Ling Jiushi smiled at the two of them, not taking it too seriously for the time being.
He hasn't realized the dangers of the game and its underlying impact.
An Ruoyu also added a reminder: "Do you want to be easily found after you go out?"
Upon hearing this, Ling Jiushi thought for a moment and said, "I'll be more careful next time."
Ruan Baijie said that he would be coming to the game often in the future, and he was thinking that he would choose a fake name next time.
"Fortunately, the young man is teachable," Ruan Lanzhu said.
They followed Xiong Qi to the entrance of an inn, pushed the door open, and saw that quite a few people were already sitting inside.
The people who came to the door were both men and women, but there were more men than women. Including An Ruoyu, there were only three women, excluding the innkeeper.
The most distinctive figure here is a man wearing a food delivery uniform; he must have come in while still delivering food.
A woman with short hair spoke first: "Let me tell you about the situation here. This is my third time here. We'll have to stay in the village for a while until we resolve the issues here and find the door and the key before we can leave."
Xiong Qi continued, "Just a reminder: if you die in the game, you'll die outside of it too, so you'd better take it seriously and not hold the team back."
The delivery guy was a little scared after hearing this. He slapped himself a few times to make sure it wasn't a dream, and stood up somewhat flusteredly.
"My order is going to be late, I have to go back, I have to go back."
After saying that, he turned around, opened the door, and ran outside.
"Come back here!" Xiong Qi chased after him, afraid he would mess things up.
Then, everyone heard a scream. An Ruoyu and the other two looked at each other and went out to see what was going on.
When they reached the door, they saw a monster crawling out of the well outside. It looked like a female ghost, with hair that could extend infinitely and whose face was not visible.
Judging from the situation, if Xiong Qi hadn't pulled the delivery guy back in time, he might already be dead.
Ling Jiushi looked at the monster and asked, "What is this thing?"
"Isn't this the door god that Ruan Baijie mentioned before?" An Ruoyu said.
Ruan Lanzhu nodded: "That's right. As I said before, there are guardians in every door. You can't get out without defeating them."
An Ruoyu: "Is there anything else I need to be careful about? Like any taboos or anything like that?"
Seemingly surprised by her quick reaction, Ruan Lanzhu paused for a moment before saying, "There are taboos, but what they are is still unclear. However, violating the taboos could cost you your life."
As he finished speaking, he looked at the two of them with a mocking gaze.
Ling Jiushi: "Why are you looking at us like that?"
"You guys are still new and inexperienced, so be careful."
"Didn't we agree to help each other?" An Ruoyu said with a smile.
Ruan Lanzhu: "I can help, but I can't guarantee you'll get out alive."
An Ruoyu didn't say anything after hearing this: "Let's go inside first and then talk."
While they were talking, Xiong Qi and the others had already gone inside, leaving only the three of them at the door.
Everyone sat down around the fire, with An Ruoyu sitting next to Xiao Ke, letting the two men sit together.
The short-haired woman who had spoken first introduced herself after everyone had arrived: "It's best if we cooperate to complete this level. My name is Xiao Ke, what are your names?"
Then, a man wearing glasses introduced himself: "My name is Cheng Wen, and this is my second marriage."
Another girl, Wang Xiaoyi, hesitated for a moment before saying that this was her first time marrying into a family.
The delivery guy was scared and a little uneasy, so Xiong Qi offered him a few words of comfort.
They had already introduced themselves to Xiong Qi, and Ruan Lanzhu had no intention of doing it again.
He stood up and said, "Excuse me, do you have any rooms available? I'm sleepy and want to go to bed."
"You still have the mind to sleep?" Xiao Ke said sarcastically.
Ruan Lanzhu retorted, "If I don't sleep, I won't die?"
"Alright, there are empty rooms upstairs, please make yourselves at home." Xiong Qi said, looking at the three of them.
Ling Jiushi glanced at the two of them. He wasn't very familiar with Ruan Lanzhu yet, so he asked An Ruoyu, whom he was somewhat acquainted with, "Are you going up?"
