Chapter 18
Huang Tianfang's eyes dodged slightly, which was considered as her agreement.
Only then did Yitu understand why Zhao Haichuan listened to Huang Tianfang and really let him in.
If they are in a client-client relationship, Zhao Haichuan and Duan Zixi will naturally listen to their employer.
As long as Huang Tianfang is alive, it is unnecessary for others to live.
Players are not allowed to kill each other directly in the card room, but what Zhao Haichuan did was murderous and heartbreaking.
In order to divert attention, Huang Tianfang reluctantly said:
"The most important thing now is to find the house number. We need to get out quickly. She's almost collapsing."
Players who die in the card game will also die in real life.
Hearing this, Fu Xue's eyelids twitched slightly, and she breathed weakly: "Looking for the stone tablet..."
Having reached this final step, all the arguments were meaningless and they just wanted to leave quickly.
Yitu looked around the not-so-big temple. Apart from the empty courtyard, there were only four tightly closed black doors in front of them.
"Will the stone tablet be in there?" Huang Tianfang asked nervously.
Right now, only she, Yi Tu and Zhao Haichuan are still able to move. Duan Zixi and Fu Xue are on the verge of coma, and they cannot afford to lose any more people.
"Eight or nine out of ten." Zhao Haichuan said in a deep voice.
After saying this, he slowly began to approach the black door.
When Zhao Haichuan tried to push open one of the doors, it opened easily, revealing a strange scene inside.
Yitu had thought there would be statues of gods enshrined inside, or a normal temple, but this was not the temple.
In the dim and dark temple, there are stone tablets engraved with strange runes.
They were like vines, rooted in the brown soil from nowhere, announcing to everyone the names of those buried underground.
But without exception, the tops of these stone tablets were cracked.
Yitu frowned, wondering what were these stone tablets about.
Just when they were confused about the situation and were about to go in to look for the intact tombstone, a pale insect with a woman's head suddenly crawled out around the tombstones.
Yi Tu's heart skipped a beat with fright. The thing in front of him was so terrifying that he got goose bumps all over his body the first time he saw it.
He subconsciously stepped back. The insect had a white and fat body, just like the queen ant in the ant nest, but at the top of its body was a woman's head.
The woman had delicate features and a pair of bright and expressive eyes, but what was frightening was that this pretty face had no mouth.
To be precise, the parts below the eyes have been discarded, and the eyes themselves seem to serve only a decorative purpose.
Because it can't see Yitu and them.
It just instinctively faced the direction of the temple gate, making a shrill cry, as if calling for something.
Yitu's expression changed instantly.
"It's begging for food!"
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The violent collision made people's hearts numb. Yitu subconsciously looked back and saw that the temple door had been hit with marks, and the knife stuck on it was also deformed.
"They want to come in." Huang Tianfang's face turned pale.
Once they break down the door and come in, none of them will survive. Those things cannot be restrained by props and function cards.
What's even more terrifying is that Yitu discovered that the two monsters that were stabbed to death by Duan Zixi seemed to have moved just now.
It turned out that he was not seeing things. The two completely mutated monsters on the ground suddenly got up and ran towards the direction of the insect body.
None of Yitu and the others had time to stop it, and could only watch as the two monsters merged with the insect body.
The insect's body grew even larger, and it collapsed on the ground, crying out in pain and satisfaction, while its lively eyes were filled with love.
Such a weird and disgusting scene appeared before his eyes, and Yitu couldn't help but feel goosebumps all over his body.
Huang Tianfang trembled and said, "Isn't it...giving birth?"
"No, it's resurrecting the villagers."
Yitu looked at everything in front of him in disbelief.
The insect-bodied woman absorbed the monsters that had eaten their flesh and blood, and rebuilt new bodies for them inside her body.
Its body became transparent and bright, so that the scene of the two monsters it had fused with squeezed inside its body could be seen clearly.
Like a child in its mother's womb.
Soon the two spherical monsters were reconstructed into humans.
The insect body collapsed on the ground, making helpless shrill cries, as if it could not expel the two children.
It was asking for help, and if Yitu guessed correctly, the person who had played the role of midwife in previous years was the village chief himself.
The village chief keeps this half-human creature and tries to resurrect his villagers every year on the village festival day.
Just then, his game cards vibrated.
The game's plot has progressed to 72%, with only the final 8% left.
The house number is about to be refreshed.
While they were stunned, the banging sounds outside the temple door became louder and louder. Hearing the Mother Goddess's cry for help, they became even more crazy.
Seeing that the temple door was about to break, the three of them had no choice but to bite the bullet and bypass the Mother Goddess and rush into the temple.
The dark temple was full of broken stone tablets, so the one that had just been erected was intact and very easy to find.
On the far right side of the temple, they saw the newly made stone tablet with runes carved on it by stonemason Liu.
"How to do it?" Yitu asked.
Zhao Haichuan didn't care about that. "Dig it out first."
Huang Tianfang stood guard on the side while the two of them started digging the stone tablet.
I don’t know if it’s a problem with the soil or something else, but Yitu found that the soil under the stone tablet was very moist and the color of the soil was very dark.
It wasn't until the two of them smelled a sweet smell that was not earthy that they felt something was wrong.
When the soil covering the surface disappeared, the body that had been buried not long ago was revealed as expected.
Yitu's hands trembled slightly as he brushed away the dirt covering the man's face.
It was a somewhat familiar face of a young woman.
Her beautiful eyes, wide open to the extreme, were filled with resentment and unwillingness, and she never closed her eyes until her death.
Chen Xiaoyue.
Based on the outline of her face, Yitu still recognized her. She was the owner of the human skin, and the face on the Mother Goddess's head was probably an imitation of her.
"Didn't she die a long time ago?" Zhao Haichuan said in shock.
Yitu shook his head. "She is dead, but the Mother Goddess resurrects her every year."
The reason why she was buried here was that every year after she was resurrected, the village chief would kill her again and nourish the Mother Goddess with her resentment.
The Mother Goddess will then resurrect the villagers and herself, and the cycle will continue.
Every stone tablet here stands on her bloody body.
The piece in front of them is no exception.
[Players should try to advance the plot to 86%. The door number has been refreshed. Please find the door number as soon as possible and leave before the card room closes!]
[Countdown to the closing of the card room, twenty minutes.]
Yi Tu and Zhao Haichuan worked together to pull the stone tablet out of Chen Xiaoyue's body, and a white card with a faint glow appeared in her ruptured stomach.
"Found it."
Zhao Haichuan breathed a sigh of relief instantly. When he picked up the house number plate, Yi Tu clearly saw the suit and number on the card.
This is a 3 of hearts with two big red words written on the back: Village Festival.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry! Those things are about to rush in!" Huang Tianfang urged hurriedly.
Zhao Haichuan and Yi Tu ran out quickly. At this time, the temple door had been knocked open and the monsters were struggling to get in.
Countless fleshy limbs stretched into the hole, trying to grab something.
Yi Tu was a little confused as he didn't know how to leave, until he saw Zhao Haichuan stick the doorplate on the broken temple door, and a white door opened instantly.
"Let's go." Zhao Haichuan said.
Huang Tianfang nodded and entered the white door first.
[System Announcement: Player No. 5 has successfully escaped!]
Zhao Haichuan went back, picked up Duan Zixi and stepped into the white door. The two figures disappeared from sight.
[System Announcement: Players 2 and 3 have successfully escaped!]
Yi Tu was about to leave when he suddenly remembered Fu Xue who was still lying on the ground unconscious, and his eyes became a little complicated.
He picked up Fu Xue and gently stepped into the white door.
[System Announcement: Players 1 and 4 have successfully escaped!]
