Chapter 341 [(*^▽^*)]

Seeing how crazy they were, the police didn't dare to release them too soon. If they were released in this emotional state, what if they caused trouble in the village?

And so they were taken away by the police. The village chief also arranged for some people to help Xue Rui clean up the room, completely demolish the partition wall, and take out all the extra things inside, such as the blue bricks and coffins, throwing some away and burning others.

They even cleaned the entire room for him, making sure not a speck of dust remained.

However... this room is still a bit too unlucky. If it were anyone else, they definitely wouldn't stay here again. Everyone asked Xue Rui if he wanted to change rooms.

But Xue Rui didn't care at all. "Isn't everything cleaned up? Since the room is so big, I'll just stay here. I don't believe in that kind of stuff..."

For Xue Rui, having a large room to live in was enough to satisfy his needs. He certainly wouldn't have any other thoughts. He didn't believe in superstitions or the idea of ​​two souls sharing one body.

Seeing how carefree he was, the villagers felt relieved. Although the boy was a bit mischievous, his attitude was genuinely good. So, everyone went home to get back to work.

Lin Leyou then sent a message to Xue Rui, "How's the third mission going?"

Xue Rui stayed in his newly built large room. Although he said he didn't care, he was still a little uncomfortable. He was used to it, but when he had a choice, he would still be picky.

For example, go to Lin Leyou's house and live with him.

Xue Rui: "The third task is complete."

Lin Leyou said, "In that case, come with me to Niu Xiaohua and Luo Qingzhou's wedding."

Xue Rui: "Okay, by the way, isn't Brother Lin going to ask me what the fourth task is?"

Lin Leyou said, "When you come over, we can bump into each other on the way and chat for a bit, how about it?"

Xue Rui jumped up suddenly, "I'm coming right now!"

Lin Le wandered along the road to Luo Qingzhou's house. There were very few people along the way; he only saw Xue Rui coming this way.

The two met naturally, and said, "Hello."

Lin Leyou smiled and said, "Hello, Xiao Rui."

Xue Rui, “…”

Lin Leyou, "I just asked around. A grandma said that if it's been eighteen years, the child's soul will come back. How many years have you been living in the same room as that coffin?"

Xue Rui, "Let me think..."

He calculated the time; he was only a little over eighteen years old. He didn't know when this cubicle had been set up, but judging from the parents' hysterical behavior just now, he guessed it was about time.

Lin Leyou said, "To be on the safe side, you should stop staying in that room. In my opinion... regardless of whether there's a coffin or the child's remains, if you continue to stay in that room, the time will probably still be counted."

Xue Rui asked in confusion, "Why?"

Lin Leyou, "Guess why our mission lasts for a month?"

Xue Rui thought for a moment and said, "If I continue to live there, my younger brother's soul will come back to find me in less than a month?"

Lin Leyou: "Yes, you will die at that time and fail to pass the level. In the eighteen years, whoever occupies the most space in this room will be in control when sharing a body."

"Your part is obviously not as large as the space of the partition, so once that soul returns, it will be the dominant one, and your fate can only be failure."

Xue Rui was speechless, "This..."

Sure enough, there are pitfalls everywhere, and it's impossible to guard against them all.

Lin Leyou, "I think that couple at the police station will definitely ask you to call them, and the call will definitely ask if you are sleeping at home. Do you believe that?"

Xue Rui said without hesitation, "I believe whatever Brother Lin says."

Lin Leyou, "...Tell me about your fourth task."

Xue Rui, "Found a demon hiding in the village."

Lin Leyou stroked his chin. "If that's the case, there's more than one evil spirit in the village."

As they chatted, they arrived at Luo Qingzhou's house. Zhao Changzhou was already there, along with Qin Jiao and Hua Jiao.

Lin Leyou was slightly taken aback. "Huh? You're all here for Luo Qingzhou's wedding?"

Zhao Changzhou wisely refrained from saying he knew him well. "Yes, you're Lin Leyou, right? You're here too?"

Lin Leyou nodded. "Luo Qingzhou told me some things about the cause of my parents' death before, and in exchange, I agreed to attend his wedding. What about you?"

His gaze fell on Huajiao and Qinjiao, and then he looked at Zhao Changzhou.

Huajiao said casually, "We're just here to eat and drink for free. Anyway, Luo Qingzhou and Niu Xiaohua's wedding has nothing to do with us. We're just here to have a good meal and take some wedding candy back with us."

Qin Jiao smiled and nodded, "Yes."

Lin Leyou waved the red envelope in her hand, "You didn't prepare any monetary gifts?"

Upon hearing this, not only Huajiao and the other two, but even Xue Rui was stunned for a moment. Right, shouldn't you prepare money as a gift when attending a wedding?

But they were only thinking about the mission or being with Brother Lin, and didn't think about this at all.

Just as everyone was wondering what to say, the door opened.

The person who opened the door was naturally Luo Qingzhou. "Oh my, so many people have come to my wedding with Xiaohua? That's wonderful! Please come in!"

He saw the red envelope in Lin Leyou's hand and immediately beamed with joy, "Is this for me?"

Lin Leyou: "Yes, this is for you two. Happy wedding."

Luo Qingzhou excitedly accepted the red envelope, looking quite happy as if it were a precious treasure. At the same time, she enthusiastically pulled Lin Leyou's hand and led her inside.

Of course, he didn't forget to invite the others in as well, "Come in, please come in, everyone. As long as you're here, you're a guest!"

Now, apart from those who knew Lin Leyou's identity, the two female players really treated Lin Leyou as an NPC in this instance. After all, only an NPC would think of giving gifts, right?

There's no other way. Things are already like this. They can't just stand outside forever. They have to go in, otherwise what will happen to the mission?

The moment Lin Leyou stepped through the door, he heard the notification that his third task was completed.

Hint: Lin Leyou, please find the evil spirit hiding in the village.

Oh wow, the fourth task is the same as Xue Rui's. Does that mean everyone is the same starting from the fourth task?

Or is it simply because Xue Rui is on the same team that they have the same mission? Is it just this mission that's the same, or will all the missions afterward be the same?

Lin Leyou glanced at Xue Rui, who returned the glance with some confusion. Neither of them spoke, and they quickly looked away to observe the situation inside.

Someone was already cooking in the kitchen. Of course, a stove had been set up in the yard with an iron pot on it, ready to cook a hearty dish. However, since only the five of them had come, the wedding was still a bit quiet.

But Luo Qingzhou didn't seem to care at all, as if it was enough that someone came.

There are advantages to having fewer people; there was only one table in the lobby of the house, and it was already full of snacks.

Luo Qingzhou said, "Please sit wherever you like and eat whatever you like. The wedding will start soon, so there's no need for too many rules. Just relax."

No one said anything. After Luo Qingzhou finished speaking, he left and went to the back, probably to find Niu Xiaohua.

Lin Leyou watched the chef cook in the courtyard. It looked and smelled delicious. She wondered when they would be able to eat.

Xue Rui followed and came out. At the same time, Zhao Changzhou also walked to Lin Leyou's vicinity. Only Huajiao and Qin Jiao were sitting inside.

Everyone refrained from interfering with each other, but the two female players were clearly quite concerned about the three people outside.

"The one who gave the gift money must be an NPC, no doubt about it. What about the other two?"

"Are you sure this Xue Rui is a player? He caused such a big incident before, and even his parents were taken away by the police, but he can still attend other people's weddings normally. If it were me, I would definitely go with them or stay at home."

"Aren't you overthinking it? From the very beginning, Xue Rui, this villager, has been a bit problematic, especially after discovering that the room next to his was filled with coffins and skeletons, he remained so calm."

Qin Jiao: "The NPCs in this instance all have some problems, especially that murderer. I heard he's still being hunted by the police."

"They should have already run away; they couldn't possibly still be staying in the village."

"That's hard to say. Maybe it's still lurking in the village, one of the crises threatening the players' safety. By the way, is your fourth task to find the evil spirit in the village?"

"Me too. It seems that our missions will overlap starting from the fourth mission."

"I hope so, and I also hope nothing bad happens afterward. The previous three missions were nerve-wracking, and I almost used up all my points. If I don't succeed..."

"If we don't succeed, we'll both die."

The two exchanged a glance and both saw the seriousness in each other's eyes.

They really didn't expect that the opportunity given by the system would be a so-called S-level difficulty dungeon. This was really going to be a disaster!

Can we say this isn't an opportunity? No, it definitely is an opportunity, but opportunity and crisis go hand in hand. The greater the opportunity, the greater their crisis.

They're already struggling with just the fourth task, and they don't know how many more tasks they have to do. Just thinking about it makes me realize there will be a lot.

After all, we're supposed to be here for a month, and only a few days have passed so far?

Zhao Changzhou, "You two are quite something, no one else could have guessed it..."

Lin Leyou sneered inwardly, "What are we? The village chief is the real power!"

Zhao Changzhou paused slightly. Lin Leyou hadn't said anything, but it seemed like he'd said everything. Well, it turned out that his teammate's identity had already been exposed sometime earlier.

"You're quite something."
