Chapter 143 Infinite Resurrection (7) - Resurrected Again
Ning Shu felt a dizzying sensation as she landed on a huge sponge in the sink. It was a dishwashing sponge, which cushioned the impact of their fall.
That saved their lives, but Ning Shu twisted one of her legs. Falling from such a height, even with foam, wouldn't have been enough.
But what happened next wasn't much better; for some reason, the faucet was turned on, and water was gushing out.
Ning Shu and the others didn't see that after the hen knocked them down, it also turned on the tap.
The hen shook itself, stood up, and went off somewhere else, completely forgetting what it had just been doing.
The two people in the sink realized something was very wrong, as the water level was rising higher and higher.
Ning Shu injured one leg, and the other leg even cramped up, so he could only shout for help.
Lin Huan rushed over to save her, telling her to relax and not hold on so tightly. Ning Shu relaxed her body when she saw that she could float, which allowed Lin Huan to catch her breath.
The water was a bit awkward because the sink was draining water underneath, so the water level never rose high enough for them to climb onto the table.
Ning Shu had overcome her initial fear and, supporting Lin Huan, was thinking of a solution. She wanted to try to lure the hen over so that it could close the drain cover below.
This sink has a very high-end configuration. The drain cover has a button; pressing it closes the cover, and pressing it again opens it, which is quite convenient.
But getting the hen to know how to press it was a problem. Ning Shu was determined to try a solution, otherwise they would be stuck here after Lin Huan ran out of energy.
Ning Shu didn't know whether dying in a non-fixed instance would result in resurrection or permanent death. She dared not gamble and could only fight to survive.
"Giggle, giggle." That was the sound Ning Shu made.
Lin Huan didn't understand and asked her what she was doing. Ning Shu explained her thoughts to him.
Lin Huan thought about it for a long time, and it seemed that there was really no better way, so he had no choice but to agree.
Ning Shu told Lin Huan to swim towards the button and wait for the hen to come over so they could see if they could use the hen's body to knock the switch open.
The hen was indeed attracted by her voice, but it was clearly more interested in Ning Shu and Lin Huan, standing by the sink and pecking at them with its beak.
Lin Huan quickly pulled Ning Shu down, and the hen seemed to have lost interest in them. She turned to leave, but accidentally stepped on a button.
This button is the switch for the bone crusher below the sink outlet. After the switch is turned on, the water in the sink drains out faster than before, and the bone crusher starts working.
Everything here is poorly designed; it's all about making it easier to rip off players.
Ning Shu and Lin Huan both heard the noise of the bone crusher working, and they frantically paddled towards the water tank.
But manpower is no match for a bone crusher. Soon they were "carried" by the water flow to the exit, and then the two of them fell down.
Ning Shu heard Lin Huan's eardrum-piercing shouts, seemingly calling her own name, and then she felt herself being pulled into a bone crusher.
it hurts! ! !
The excruciating pain, as if she were being torn to pieces, swept over her entire body, and then she lost consciousness...
When Ning Shu opened her eyes again, she found herself back in the red brick factory, still haunted by the fear of being torn to pieces by the bone crusher.
Perhaps it was psychological, but she felt that the intense pain still lingered in her body.
That's an amazing way to die!
I don't know how much psychological trauma it caused her. It would have been better to just shoot her twice; at least she would have died with some dignity.
When she brags to others in the future, saying that she once "died" in a bone crusher, she's sure not many people would want to compare their way of dying with her.
After calming down, Ning Shu remembered Lin Huan. He should have returned here as well. It turns out that dying in a non-fixed instance will also return you to the starting point.
She searched everywhere and found him at the place where she first met Lin Huan.
"Brother Huan, are you alright?" Ning Shu stepped forward to greet him.
Lin Huan looked at her with a puzzled expression: "You know me?"
Ning Shu: "..."
No, this is really enough! What's wrong with these people lately? Is this all they ever say in their opening lines?
Ning Shu frowned: "Brother Huan, don't you remember me? We just hung up and came back here."
Lin Huan frowned: "Hang? Hang where?" Was it what he meant?
Ning Shu suddenly shuddered. Wait a minute, this familiar smell... why is it the same as Sister Meng's reaction?
Could it be that every time her memories are refreshed, everyone else's memories are also refreshed? That's why Sister Meng doesn't recognize her, and Lin Huan has no recollection of her either.
She believed that Lin Huan, given his character, wouldn't joke like that with her.
But why is she able to remember them?
If Lin Huan had no recollection of having met her, then someone who had the same experience as Lin Huan shouldn't remember Lin Huan either.
But that's not the case. Is this normal?
Seeing her deep in thought, Lin Huan finally couldn't help but interrupt her: "Girl, you still haven't told me how you know me."
Ning Shu was stumped. If her guess was true, how should she answer?
Forget it, I might as well give up: "I've seen you before, and I've heard others mention you like this."
Lin Huan asked suspiciously, "Where?"
Ning Shu remembered that the other person said he was a veteran, so he must have served in the military before, and made it up:
"It was at the gate of the unit where you were stationed. I was visiting relatives when I saw other people calling you that."
Lin Huan thought about it and realized that it wasn't impossible. Sometimes, military personnel visiting relatives would happen to be on the same day and would run into the guard at the gate.
Lin Huan: "Oh, so your boyfriend is also in the military? You're lucky."
Ning Shu chuckled awkwardly, "Yeah."
Lin Huan suddenly remembered his question: "Girl, where is this place? Why are we here?"
Ning Shu looked at his reaction: Could it be that this wasn't the first time, but rather the umpteenth time he had been resurrected without her knowing?
She recalled the players she had encountered when she first woke up in the red brick factory, and cautiously asked:
"I don't know either, brother. Do you remember what you were doing before you got here?"
Lin Huan was taken aback by the question for a moment before replying, "I think I was herding cattle for my dad in the countryside. Right, wasn't I herding cattle? How did I end up here?"
When Ning Shu heard him say that, she remembered the first time she woke up, and it seemed that she had no memory of what she was doing the last time.
However, Cheng Chuan, Wu Yi, and the other players all remembered what they were doing before they arrived here.
Why is she the only one who is so special as to not remember anything before she entered the palace, and yet after being resurrected, she is the only one who remembers everything before her resurrection?
This game is getting weirder and weirder.
Seeing Ning Shu's serious expression, Lin Huan realized he might have frightened her, so he quickly reassured her, "Don't worry, little sister, I'll definitely get you out of here safely. Come with me."
This time, Ning Shu learned her lesson and stopped giving bad advice. If the inability to acquire talent skills was making things so dangerous in the game, she felt she should try to find a way to obtain them.
