Chapter 131 The Infinite Player's Ghost Wife
When Lin Zhi smelled the strong fishy smell of water, he looked towards the door.
Xie Qing noticed something and slammed on the brakes.
But after waiting for a while, there was still no movement outside.
The breath gradually faded away, making Lin Zhi a little confused.
"Gone?"
"It smells a bit like a water ghost, but not exactly the same."
After all, this is the object he wants to devour this time, so Lin Zhi has to analyze it.
He hoped it was a soul body, if not he might not be able to digest it.
But his distraction was only for a moment. The scorching heat buried deep in his belly was like a quietly dormant animal, occasionally jumping, as if it could burn his internal organs.
"We'll know the clues tomorrow," Xie Qing rested his hands on Lin Zhi's sides, lowered his head and asked with a smile, "Wife, are they useful to you too?"
This is actually not difficult to guess. After Lin Zhi drank his blood and saved his life, Lin Zhi was able to ignore the rules of the copy and appear beside him, and became stronger.
This undoubtedly shows that Lin Zhi is borrowing the player's identity to travel through the game, so it is obvious what his purpose is and why his power is enhanced.
It was all for the bosses who were the core of the dungeon like him. At the end of the last dungeon, Lin Zhi should have done this.
"Don't you dare say that it has nothing to do with me? After all, we are husband and wife. Even though I am weak compared to you, I am willing to do my part. After all, we are in the same camp and have the same goal."
Xie Qing and Lin Zhi touched their foreheads together. If someone didn’t know their relationship, they might really think they were a couple in love.
Lin Zhi raised her eyes. Xie Qing's love was so deceptive that she would have thought he had fallen in love with him and couldn't help himself.
Obviously this is not the case. As Xie Qing himself said, their camps are consistent.
The player is committed to surviving in the hands of the boss and passing the level by killing the boss, and his goal is to devour his own kind. Based on this condition, although he may take Xie Qing's life at any time, he is also Xie Qing's amulet at the same time.
He was the perfect existence in Xie Qing's heart that could liberate him. Under such circumstances, they also achieved great harmony in life. Xie Qing had no reason not to like him.
But this level of liking is not enough, far from enough.
"What if it's not?"
Lin Zhi's rhetorical question was broken, and the ending tone was a little breathy.
"If not..." Xie Qing repeated his words, his palm pressed against Lin Zhi's outlined abdomen, his eyebrows and eyes excited, "It is my honor to serve you."
The big boy between a teenager and a mature man has characteristics unique to this age. He is cheerful and lively like the warm summer sun, full of vigor and vitality.
When this wantonness was mixed with some evil intentions, it actually also carried some purity and beauty, as if what he said was something he truly felt was good.
He cunningly transformed the conflict between them into a conflict between them and other beings, avoiding the sharp edge of Lin Zhi's words.
Xie Qing didn't want to surrender to the enemy, but his wife asked him in that voice and in that manner, and he couldn't hesitate for even a second.
Of course, if it is something beyond the bottom line, Xie Qing is also willing to offer himself to help his wife have fun.
Xie Qing waited for Lin Zhi's answer, but Lin Zhi did not speak immediately. She just stared at him with her dark eyes, as if she could see through his indifference under his enthusiasm and his lies under his sincerity, causing Xie Qing's heart to miss a beat.
"I'll wait and see."
The opening and closing of the soft, bright red lips attracted Xie Qing's attention.
This means that Lin Zhi will not kill him in the short term, so just watch him carefully.
The crackling sound of rain falling on the roof drowned out the gurgling sound of water.
The sky cleared up the next day, but there was still a chill in the air, filling the air and penetrating into people's bones.
In a house without a calendar, it is difficult to tell the season just by the weather. Lin Zhi was not afraid of the cold. He walked out of the room and looked at the traces on the ground.
The road surface was left with a dark blue tint, with a corroded luster.
These traces are wider than those created by humans crawling.
Zhang San and Zhang Yunzhao, who walked out of the room, were also startled and immediately walked to the traces.
"Where's Xie Qing?"
Zhang San asked immediately. After all, the trace led directly to the house where Lin Zhi and Xie Qing lived. Lin Zhi came out, but Xie Qing had not yet.
"I'm here, why...eh."
Xie Qing opened the door and didn't need to finish his words when he saw the dark blue at the entrance.
Zhang San and Zhang Yunzhao walked towards their room and breathed a sigh of relief when they saw there were no traces on the floor.
Zhang San: "What did you two do last night? The monster came to your door, why did it leave again?"
"I didn't notice it. It was raining so hard that we didn't hear anything."
Xie Qing was also puzzled. He originally thought that it was Lin Zhi who took action, but when he thought about Lin Zhi's reaction last night, he thought it was his fault that he left.
He didn't know why it came or why it left.
Could it be that the boss felt that they were exercising and was embarrassed to disturb them?
Xie Qing chuckled in his heart, thinking that this joke was quite good.
He looked at Lin Zhi. In the cold morning fog, the young man was wearing long sleeves and long pants, looking quiet and cold.
Xie Qing was thinking about what he said, "wait and see", and frowned slightly because of the discomfort caused by the bloating.
Her cheeks are pale and there is a hint of red at the corners of her eyes.
He walked to Lin Zhi's side, but Lin Zhi did not look at him.
Zhang Yunzhao squatted beside the trace and said, "This time we are close to the sea, and the NPC mentioned the Queen of the Sea again. Could the boss this time be a mermaid? This trace can also be said to be a fish tail."
"If it was a fish tail, the marks wouldn't be so different."
Lin Zhi denied it out loud, saying that these corrosion marks were not consistent. If it was a dragging fish tail, there would be consistent depressions due to the scales.
Zhang Yunzhao nodded: "That makes sense. Let's split up and walk around the village to look for clues."
He felt someone was watching him, and when he looked up, he found that it was Xie Qing who was looking at him and smiling at him in a very friendly manner.
Zhang Yunzhao was a little confused, but he responded with a slightly shy smile.
Xie Qing thought it was not good, this kid looked purer than him.
"We'll meet up with Liu Yue and Tong Tong first, and then separate the exploration areas to avoid large-scale overlap."
Xie Qing made a supplementary proposal and everyone nodded with no objection.
At this time, the door of the main house was pushed open, and Uncle Guo, wearing a worn leather coat, walked out and said in surprise: "You guys got up quite early."
Xie Qing: "Uncle Guo, can you tell us where Sister Liu lives? We plan to go find our friends first."
"I also happen to be going to Sister Liu's place. You can come with me, but remember not to talk to the girls in our village, otherwise you will bear the consequences."
Uncle Guo scratched his dry hair and asked everyone to follow him.
"Are there mermaids in this sea? It's so wide."
Lin Zhi called Uncle Guo and used the marks on the ground to make gestures.
Uncle Guo laughed and said, "You young people out there still believe this. There are all kinds of fish in this sea, except for mermaids. Isn't this a story from foreigners? It has nothing to do with us."
Zhang San asked tentatively: "Can't you see the traces on the ground?"
Uncle Guo glanced at the ground and said in confusion, "What traces are there on the ground? The dust has been washed away by the heavy rain."
Lin Zhi thought that as expected, Uncle Guo's eyes had never lingered on the ground since he came out.
He's not pretending, he's really invisible.
Xie Qing smiled and tried to smooth things over: "He was joking. Let's go to Sister Liu's place."
Uncle Guo didn't dwell on it. He closed the door and led everyone out.
Unlike the dead silence last night, there were people standing on the road now, and everyone was walking out.
On the road in the village, blue-black traces crisscrossed, as if one could glimpse the scene of monsters crawling again and again at night. However, all the fishermen were unaware of it and walked forward on the corroded ground.
Lin Zhi noticed that all the people coming out of the house were men, both young and old.
Zhang San couldn't help but ask: "Why are everyone moving forward?"
Uncle Guo said calmly, "Today is the day to celebrate the wedding of Queen Hai. Everyone must go, but men cannot get too close."
Lin Zhi: "She hates men?"
From the rule that men and women cannot live together in the village, it can be seen that the monster is against relationships between men and women. Now it is stated that men cannot get too close, which shows the monster's disgust for men.
Uncle Guo had an almost weird look on his face and said, "Maybe."
Two sharp whistles made everyone quicken their pace.
Lin Zhi and the others also quickened their pace and walked to the large ancestral hall.
There were many women standing there, led by Sister Liu who was wearing a crimson coat.
Liu Yue held Tongtong's hand and stood at the end of the team, waving to Lin Zhi and the others.
There are many women who behave like Liu Yue. Some of them are young girls and some are older women. They all turn around quietly and greet the men.
It’s just that their movements were more nervous and covert, for fear of being discovered.
In front of the crowd, stood a woman with braided pigtails, a red hair flower and a numb expression.
"mom!"
A little boy, about eight or nine years old, rushed out from the crowd like a cannonball, ran to the woman and hugged her thighs.
"Shi Tou, why are you here? Go back to your brother!"
The woman's expression relaxed a little, and then she spoke quickly.
She said this, but she was reluctant to push the child away.
"Don't let my mom go! Don't let my mom go! My mom is already married, how can she marry Queen Hai! I want my mom! I want my mom!"
The little boy cried loudly and pulled the woman's clothes tightly.
Some people in the crowd were sobbing quietly, feeling extremely resentful.
The stone was still pulled away. He was still not as strong as an adult. No matter how heartbreakingly he cried, he was still carried away by Sister Liu with a stern face.
The woman wiped her tears secretly and looked at her son reluctantly.
Shitou's mouth was covered and his crying stopped.
"Jia Jie'er, this is Queen Hai's wish. I hope you can satisfy her. Go ahead."
Sister Liu gave the person a push, and the woman took one last look at her son before walking towards the beach on the sand.
She got on a small boat by the sea and was pushed out of the sea.
The whistle blew three times, and the women standing in the front knelt down and recited in a low voice.
Lin Zhi looked to the side and saw that the men had also knelt down, even Shi Tou, who had been howling just now, knelt down in hatred.
Several standing players stood out, their bodies trembling with fear at the sound of prayer.
When the chanting stopped, the kneeling people bowed their heads towards the sea.
Their postures were extremely pious. The waves on the beach were rolling up and the boat soon disappeared without a trace.
