Chapter 330 [(*^▽^*)]
Lin Leyou moved a chair to a spot by the roadside in front of his house, held a bowl of noodles, and looked at the police in the distance, just like any other villager.
Meanwhile, Huajiao and the woman walked past each other, chatting and laughing.
Lin Leyou's eyes were fixed on the police in the distance, and he didn't pay attention to the situation around him, so the two women didn't notice anything amiss.
"I never expected that we would have the same name. My name is Huajiao, and yours is Qinjiao..."
Qin Jiao: "Yes, it's such a coincidence, and this time we need to cooperate with each other."
The two women together were really good at talking. Lin Leyou has now obtained another clue: Huajiao's teammate must also be a player, not a resident!
Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to chat so well, especially since the system would never allow players and residents to team up, especially when the residents knew the players were there.
Of course... many system rules or common sense things are useless to him and Xue Rui.
Although Xue Rui was a player, he still teamed up with this resident, and the two of them had entered many, many dungeons together.
Without any team-up items, the two were randomly assigned by the system to the same dungeon to share hardships.
Especially this time, Lin Leyou entered the instance with Huang Bing. Originally, they were supposed to be teammates, and Xue Rui was their enemy, but...
The connection between the two of them, even the teammate who was practically a done deal, was changed. That's really something. Lin Leyou still can't figure it out.
After all, they were enemies in a previous instance, and their quests conflicted, so one of them had to lose for the other to win.
But I never expected the system to be so generous this time?
However, Lin Leyou then felt that it wasn't actually that generous, since Jiang Xiaming, his good teammate, had directly killed his own teammate for 100 points.
Of course, he couldn't possibly have said he killed Huang Bing for your kill points, so he would have found some plausible reason, such as...
Sorry, but you saw me with your left eye first, which I don't like, so you have to die.
Oh, this isn't a perfect reason, it's a bizarre one, but Lin Leyou doesn't think Jiang Xiaming planned to kill him with Huang Bing's permission.
After all, Huang Bing came to this dungeon for the talent card. While looking forward to the talent card, he must also want to clear the dungeon, since failing to clear it will deduct 5 million points!
Not to mention that if he were killed by other participants, the 1 million points awarded to the other party would be deducted from Huang Bing's own points.
Could it be that Jiang Xiaming told Huang Bing, "You can win without lifting a finger, I'm sure I can clear the game. Let me kill you, and I guarantee I'll give you 5 million points back, though I'll collect 1 million points in advance as payment"?
If Huang Bing actually agrees to this, he's out of his mind. After all, for Huang Bing, successfully clearing this dungeon is secondary; his primary goal is to obtain the talent cards that might appear in the dungeon.
In conclusion, Jiang Xiaming killed Huang Bing on his own initiative. Unless he can successfully complete the game and give Huang Bing some compensation after the dungeon ends, Huang Bing will definitely fight to the death, no joke.
Lin Leyou didn't think Huang Bing would swallow this insult.
So just wait and see. After this dungeon ends and we return to Infinite City, there might be some good shows to watch.
Lin Leyou counted the participants in the instance he knew so far, and there were already six people whose identities were known, including himself: Huang Bing, Jiang Xiaming, Xue Rui, Huajiao, and Qin Jiao.
Two people were paired up, resulting in exactly three groups of participants.
Lin Leyou felt that six people were too few and definitely not enough. There should be at least one or two groups, with two groups being more likely.
However, we cannot rule out the possibility of one or more groups being affected, so in short, we must not let our guard down.
He took a bite of noodles and a sip of soup, then caught a glimpse of Xue Rui out of the corner of his eye. Xue Rui was pacing back and forth in the fields in the distance, seemingly doing something...
Ah! He's digging in the mud.
Very well, Xue Rui had told him before that this character liked to dig up mud and smear it on the villagers. It seems that Xue Rui is planning to mess with someone again today.
It was unclear whether Xue Rui had actually determined who the doll lying in the coffin represented, but he was taking the risk for his own sake. Lin Leyou didn't look at him, but she was still on tenterhooks.
Is it really okay to place all our hopes on Xue Rui?
Is he just going to accept Xue Rui's sacrifices from the shadows without a care in the world? Lin Leyou felt uneasy. Maybe he should keep a closer eye on Lin Leyou from the shadows.
In short, Lin Leyou is unlikely to have any problems during the day; if anything, it will definitely happen at night.
That night, he arranged for two mechanical spiders to follow Xue Rui. If there was any danger, he wouldn't care whether he was being watched, whether he was not strong enough, or any other reason.
Saving lives is the top priority.
Xue Rui quickly dug up a lump of mud, skillfully shaped it into a round shape, and then walked around the village, seemingly choosing a target to harm.
Many people avoided him when they saw him doing this from a distance. Even the villagers who were watching the commotion were reminded to move further away. In short, they were told not to enter the attack range of this brat Xue Rui.
Like the other villagers, Lin Leyou stayed a little further away from the roadside. Although he couldn't see much from this spot, he could see Xue Rui wandering around the village with a soft, muddy ball in his hand.
I really want to laugh! But I can't, since none of the villagers are laughing either.
Unbeknownst to him, Luo Qingzhou and Niu Xiaohua's affectionate figures appeared in his field of vision at some point, though he only caught a glimpse of them out of the corner of his eye.
Lin Leyou paused for a moment, then turned to look at them. As they walked forward, Xue Rui turned at the intersection ahead, and the two stood about thirty or forty meters apart, looking at each other.
Niu Xiaohua, in particular, was startled when she saw the mud ball in Xue Rui's hand and immediately hid behind Luo Qingzhou. "This...this is going to throw it at me again?"
Luo Qingzhou frowned. "Xue Rui, don't go too far. You're wearing new clothes today. If you get them dirty, we'll ask your parents for compensation."
Xue Rui's gaze was cold as he looked at them. If he had originally just been excited to have some fun in the village, his expression changed after Luo Qingzhou said those words.
Luo Qingzhou wasn't stupid; he noticed this immediately and pulled Niu Xiaohua away as fast as he could, but Xue Rui chased after them.
As he chased, he calculated the distance between them. Finally, when the other person made a mistake while running, stumbled twice, and slowed down, Xue Rui threw the mud ball in his hand.
Finally, Luo Qingzhou subconsciously looked behind her, also to see if Xue Rui was coming over. As a result, when she turned her head, she was right in front of the mud ball that Xue Rui had thrown at her.
And just like that... the mud ball hit Luo Qingzhou squarely in the face and exploded on his face.
Even Xue Rui was stunned by this scene. He had originally aimed at the back of Luo Qingzhou's head, but he didn't expect him to turn around, which led to the current situation.
He was momentarily at a loss for words, but then burst into laughter, "Hahaha... This is so funny, so funny! Serves you right for bullying my mom!"
Luo Qingzhou was trembling all over, whether from anger or shame, he didn't know. In any case, he kept comforting the frightened Niu Xiaohua while using his trembling hands to wipe the mud off his face.
Niu Xiaohua disregarded her fear and used her new clothes to wipe the mud off Luo Qingzhou's face, all the while scolding Xue Rui, "You child, you never do anything useful and always cause trouble for others!"
"You have no manners at all. Only your parents could raise a child like you. You should just die like him and be done with it, so you won't be doing bad things in the village now!"
Xue Rui went straight to the point, "What did you say? Who are you calling ill-mannered? You're the ill-mannered one! You even cursed me to die? I'm going to live a very, very long life, longer than all of you! To make you all furious!"
Then he realized what he meant, "What did you say? You old woman, what do you mean by 'just die like him'? Who is he? Was he also cursed to death by you?"
Just then, Luo Qingzhou placed his hand heavily on Niu Xiaohua's shoulder, as if reminding her of something, and Niu Xiaohua gradually came back to her senses.
"Hmph, what's the point of talking to a scoundrel like you? In short, you're a spoiled brat with no manners. Don't let me see you again!"
No sooner had she finished speaking than Xue Rui's mother appeared. She looked furious, as if she, not Luo Qingzhou, had been the one thrown into the mud.
Xue Rui's mother had just arrived, unaware of what had happened, when she walked straight up to Niu Xiaohua and her companion, pointing her finger at them and berating them, "You two adulterers, out for another stroll? Don't you know the time? Aren't you ashamed to be out in broad daylight?"
"Don't think I don't know you've been scolding my child again. My little Rui is such a smart, lively, and well-behaved child, how could you bear to scold him?"
"What do you mean by 'no manners'? My child is very well-behaved at home. What's wrong with him being a little naughty outside? Isn't that your fault? Otherwise, why would Xiao Rui only do this kind of thing to you?"
Xue Rui's mother is at it again, twisting the truth, but Lin Leyou thinks it's quite good. If Xue Rui had a mother who defends him without distinguishing right from wrong in the real world, wouldn't he have an easier life?
After all, the real-world Xue Rui is not like the character in the game; he is a very obedient and excellent child, just as Xue Rui's mother said.
