Jiang Liyue, on the day she became a shadow queen, was pulled into an infinite-loop novel and turned into the fake heiress who starved to death because she refused to enter the game. Good news: she...
Chapter 83 Aversion to Stupidity
Feng Xuan's eyes lit up instantly when Jiang Liyue kissed him, and he leaned in to cling to her.
His clinginess was about the same in every instance, something Jiang Liyue had already noticed. She quickly pushed him away and got down to business: "Ah Xuan, besides the ones in the ancestral hall, do you know where else the village chronicles of Paper Doll Village are?"
Yesterday's village chronicle clearly contained a lot of unrecorded information, which should have contained important details.
"Village chronicle? Wife, do you want to know the story of the Paper Doll Village?" Feng Xuan reluctantly turned his head to answer her question, "Wife, you can ask me if you want to know."
As an old ghost who has lived in the paper doll village for hundreds of years, what can't she just ask directly?
Jiang Liyue: "Oh, then tell me, how did Liu Family Village turn into Paper Doll Village?"
Feng Xuan paused for a moment, then honestly shook his head: "I don't know."
Jiang Liyue: ...
One second he said he knew everything, the next he said he didn't. Feng Xuan probably felt embarrassed and blinked his eyes aggrievedly: "Back then, I fought a great battle with demons and perished. Then I was in a deep sleep. When I woke up, this place was Paper Doll Village."
Feng Xuan only knew that it was probably due to the influence of the remnant soul of a demon that it had become like this.
But he was neither aware of nor interested in the specifics of what happened.
"What about what has happened in Paper Doll Village in recent years?" Jiang Liyue reluctantly accepted his explanation and then asked the next question.
To everyone's surprise, Feng Xuan shook his head again: "I don't know."
Jiang Liyue finally couldn't help but roll her eyes at him: "Then what do you know?"
Feng Xuan felt even more aggrieved: "All these years, except for the paper offering day, I have been sleeping all the time."
He only knew that he was waiting, but he didn't know what he was waiting for; everything was utterly boring to him.
So he had no choice but to fall into a deep sleep.
Especially after the villagers of Paper Doll Village gave up sacrificing to him, Feng Xuan paid no attention to what happened in Paper Doll Village every year, and he would not take the initiative to find out.
Seeing Jiang Liyue's speechless expression, Feng Xuan suddenly remembered something and his eyes lit up: "Why don't I go and grab someone to tell you?"
"Please don't," Jiang Liyue quickly stopped him from this dangerous idea. "I'll find it myself."
Just like in the previous instance, she only wanted to explore on her own and didn't want anyone to give her the answers directly.
Besides discovering the fun in dungeons, another reason is that Jiang Liyue is more willing to believe in herself.
Although there are bosses in the current dungeons, will they really be in every dungeon?
Weird people are unpredictable. What if one day he turns against her again? She relies entirely on others to clear dungeons, but will she always have the boss's help?
This method of passing the test can easily lead to laziness, and Jiang Liyue has never wanted to be a parasitic plant that depends on others.
Jiang Liyue's eyes shone brightly, filled with ambition and determination, and Feng Xuan was unconsciously captivated by them.
He didn't know why, but he felt that his moon seemed to be glowing.
I love it so much...
He couldn't help but answer seriously, "I didn't see any other parts of the village chronicle in the ancestral hall."
“Okay.” Jiang Liyue thought about it carefully and listed several places in her mind where the village chronicles might exist.
I'm planning to go out and look for it during the day today.
She pursed her lips slightly, her lips like rose petals moistened with dew, and Feng Xuan swallowed twice involuntarily.
In the end, I couldn't resist leaning in and kissing him twice.
As their lips met, he whispered, "Wife, don't leave me."
She seemed somewhat aggrieved.
Jiang Liyue's heart skipped a beat for no reason, recalling the obsessive and morbid look in the other party's eyes when she exited the first two dungeons.
Feeling inexplicably pathetic, she replied with an "okay".
Anyway, leaving the instance isn't her fault; it's the fault of the strange occurrences in the game.
If you're going to hold someone accountable, then settle the score with the game developer. She's definitely not a bad girl.
After spending a few more minutes cuddling with Feng Xuan in the room, Jiang Liyue finally opened the door.
Feng Xuan transformed back into black mist and wrapped around her wrist.
The black mist contrasted sharply against the fair skin, flowing slowly, creating a decadent beauty.
The sky outside was still overcast, as if casting a dark and worn filter over the entire village.
In the courtyard, there were some paper figures scattered about, and there were bloodstains and signs of a fight on the ground, which gave one a sense of the intense chase that had taken place the previous night.
The remaining paper figures remained quietly huddled in the corner, trying to minimize their presence.
Xu Pengfei and his companions were still huddled in the corner when they heard the door open, and they looked over like startled birds.
All three of them were covered in injuries, their hair and clothes were dusty and dirty, and they looked extremely disheveled.
Xu Pengfei was the most seriously injured; he was still holding a nearly broken tortoise shell in his arms.
[Turtle Shell]: Grade A Item
Function: Can accommodate one to three people and withstand external attacks.
Item description: Stick your head out and I'll cut you; stick your head out and I'll cut you again. If you stick your head out, you won't be able to cut me!
This tortoise shell is Xu Pengfei's starting item. As an A-grade item and a protective item, it plays a significant role in dungeons.
It was thanks to this item that Xu Pengfei was able to successfully complete the first six dungeons.
Moreover, the tortoise shell can hold up to three people, which is why Qian Liu and Li Xue'er are both willing to hold it.
Having items that can save your life in dungeons, what's a few flattering words?
It was because of this prop that the three of them were able to hold on until this morning.
However, the paper figures' attacks were too fierce, and after one night, the tortoise shell was almost unable to hold on.
Fortunately, after daybreak, the paper figure returned to calm, and Xu Pengfei quickly put the tortoise shell away.
Upon seeing Jiang Liyue, Xu Pengfei's face was filled with anger: "Was it you who did this?! You were the one who made those paper figures last night, weren't you?"
Last night, when they were escaping in the courtyard, Xu Pengfei and the others tried to knock on Jiang Liyue's door, but to no avail. The more he thought about it, the more suspicious he became, convinced that Jiang Liyue was behind it all.
Jiang Liyue slowly approached the three of them.
All three of them were injured to varying degrees and were currently crouching in a corner.
Therefore, Jiang Liyue could look down at Xu Pengfei from above.
She curled her lips into a half-smile, a sweet smile that appeared to them like the work of a demon.
Jiang Liyue's voice was sweet as she tilted her head and said, "To be honest, I'm getting a little tired of being stupid."
"If I really did this, have you ever considered talking to me like this..."
She slightly raised her foot, stepped on his chest, and kicked him back forcefully before slowly saying, word by word, "What will be the consequences?"
