Chapter 146: The Ghost Wife of Infinite Player
Lin Zhi was wondering if this coin would always face up this side, so she tossed it again, and this time the words were facing up.
Shadow looked at Lin Zhi who was playing with the coin and said in an urging tone: "Wife, it's time for you to ask the next question."
He still had a lot of questions to ask, and he wished Lin Zhi would ask him more.
Lin Zhi put away the coins, leaned back in his chair, and said lazily, "No more."
Without Xie Qing around, he actually felt a little bored.
He didn't need to ask anything else, whether it was what the shadow world looked like, the meaning of ornamental fish, how many players were now shadows, what the shadow players would do, what would happen if the game failed, these were all things that could be inferred by looking with the eyes and using the brain, and had no value in exchange.
Although he didn't know what the young man would ask, what he asked must be what Xie Qing cared about, because he was Xie Qing's shadow in the physical sense. Even if he was temporarily independent, he still had Xie Qing's thinking and behavior patterns.
If Yingzi asked who the person was who impressed him and made him laugh before, he would have to deal with it for a while, because he would rather hear Xie Qing ask in person.
By that time, his redemption mission would have been successful.
"Really?"
Shadow was a little surprised, and there was some regret in his words.
"I thought you would at least want to know if he really likes you, or if he really loves you. He is a weird person, and of course, I am also weird."
Shadow looked into Lin Zhi's eyes and sighed softly.
This seems like a provocation, but also seems to be sincere and meaningful, leaving room for imagination.
Shadow felt that the boy sitting opposite would at least be a little curious, but his beautiful face, which made people stop and watch, remained calm, as if he didn't care about the matter.
The people listening above didn't feel any emotion, but the people listening below felt a little nervous.
Xie Qing didn't know how many times he had scolded Yingzi. He was angry before, but this time he felt a little guilty.
When he spoke nice things to Lin Zhi before, he actually didn't have much affection for her, but it was different now.
It’s different now! It’s not that he dislikes Lin Zhi, he... he likes her very much.
So what is this broken shadow doing? It's causing trouble for his love and career, right?
He hasn't succeeded yet, so we're laying a mine for him here.
If Xie Qing hadn't known that Lin Zhi couldn't hear, he would have yelled at the top a few times, telling Lin Zhi not to listen to that thing's nonsense.
Xie Qing was listening to the sound above anxiously, and at this time Meng Ling reminded him that a monster was approaching.
They had followed the moving exit from the second floor to the first floor, but because monsters appeared in groups, they temporarily hid under the dining table in the back kitchen.
The monsters that had gathered before had dispersed, and the remaining two were heading towards them.
Meng Ling originally thought that they would each deal with one, but Xie Qing, who had just been taking a breath and resting, picked up a rolling pin and hit the two monsters on the head respectively. He dealt with them very quickly, with heavy blows and a bit of resentment.
Meng Ling gave Xie Qing a look of admiration, but Xie Qing didn't receive it.
He was already annoyed and was waiting to hear what was said from above, but these monsters came over without any hesitation.
In his anxious mood, he heard Lin Zhi's voice.
“I know the answer.”
Lin Zhi lowered her eyes, and her pale fingertips stroked the pattern on the coin.
There were still red marks on his fingertips that had not yet faded away, left by Xie Qing.
There are many such marks, all covered by clothes.
"You know? So what do you think the answer is?"
Shadow's curiosity was aroused, but he had no way of knowing the answer in Lin Zhi's mind from Lin Zhi's expression.
"This has nothing to do with you, just leave after you finish eating."
Lin Zhi did not respond. He knew that Yingzi was anxious, and he also knew that Xie Qing, who could hear their conversation, was also anxious, but so what.
There are answers to all the problems in this world, but not everyone can hear the answers.
Shadow lamented, "Wife, you are so heartless. How can you speak in half sentences?"
It was clearly he who brought it up first, and now he's feeling a little anxious.
Xie Qing in the shadow world was also anxious and restless, unable to sit still, and continued to look for a exit.
While running fast, Meng Ling ran out of energy. She said something to Xie Qing, and the two of them hid in a room on the third floor to recover. Only then did Meng Ling notice that Xie Qing's movements were a little unnatural.
She couldn't see Xie Qing's expression in the darkness, but she could feel his pain from the way he pressed his chest.
Meng Ling whispered with concern: "Are you okay? Were you injured by a monster just now?"
Xie Qing said in a relaxed tone: "It's okay, I just had a heart attack."
"You still call this okay?" Meng Ling's eyes widened. She wanted to ask if there was any medicine, but then she thought that if there was medicine, people would definitely take it, so why would she need to ask? After thinking for a while, she said, "We don't need to rush into it later. Your body is the most important thing. Although you don't know the passage of time, it's definitely not tomorrow yet."
"It's okay. I won't die here."
Xie Qing lifted up his slightly sweaty bangs and smiled confidently.
He had to crawl out of the door even if he had to. His wife was still waiting for him. If his wife remarried, it would be useless for him to cry at any grave.
On the ship, the boy walking in front of the shadow went straight forward.
The shadow followed his footsteps and fell to the second floor of the ship.
The second floor has a wide view. Many tourists are washing themselves in the water by the swimming pool, and some are enjoying the breeze on the deck. There is an empty spot on the beach chair, so Lin Zhi lies on it, with the parasol blocking the warm sunlight.
At this time Shadow realized that Lin Zhi was not heartless, but was just heartless to him.
Because his body was controlled again, Xie Qing himself could not escape Lin Zhi's shackles, let alone him who stole Xie Qing's body.
He could only stand on the side of Lin Zhi, welcoming the sunlight and watching his shadow become clearer in the light.
Ying, who had gained consciousness here, didn't understand why Lin Zhi separated him and Xie Qing so clearly. It was obvious that he was a part of Xie Qing, and he was also Xie Qing.
Every shadow has thought so since it became conscious. They have been watching the subject for so long, have existed since the subject was born, have the same memories, the same thinking and the same behavior as the subject. They are the original body.
But obviously Lin Zhi didn't think so. Shadow didn't continue to ask him why he thought so because it didn't make sense.
He quietly watched the boy dozing on the beach chair. After all, it would not be long before his consciousness faded and he turned back into a shadow.
Being exposed to sunlight of this intensity for a long time, it would be difficult for Xie Qing to find the exit.
According to the rules of the game, they usually deliberately hide in cool places when it is still daylight, do not turn on the lights at night, try to be shielded from the light, avoid artificial light and moonlight, and make the light of the exit dim.
This behavior is of course very abnormal, and will occasionally arouse suspicion from players who have not yet fallen into the shadow world, and then lead to fighting. Those players who return from the shadow world first will also cause their failure.
But he is probably the first one who has to bask in the sun.
But he was not angry, he couldn't be angry, because he liked Lin Zhi, because Xie Qing liked Lin Zhi.
I don’t know if this is the answer in Lin Zhi’s mind, but he won’t say it on his own initiative.
He was about to disappear, so he didn't want to let Xie Qing get away with it.
Lin Zhi waited and waited until he felt a little drowsy.
It was not physical fatigue, but weariness caused by continuous use of strength.
He has been controlling Xie Qing's body for some time, and his soul power is not inexhaustible, especially in the sunlight. His power is restrained and its effect is weakened, and it is consumed at a faster rate.
He asked 01 to keep an eye on Xie Qing's body and alert him if there was any movement.
Wu Zhongchuan, Geng Yi and Chen Yun were all staying on the second floor, spread out in a scattered manner to avoid being alone and falling into danger, or being hurt and unable to escape.
They felt a little weird looking at Xie Qing standing motionless beside Lin Zhi, but since they were not very familiar with him and there were not many clues to talk about, they did not get close. Maybe this is how young couples get along with each other.
Lin Zhi closed his eyes, calculated the remaining soul power, and couldn't help frowning in annoyance.
He couldn't use up all his strength. Xie Qing might not be able to come out soon, so he couldn't fall into a passive position.
The grayish-white mist penetrated into Xie Qing's body and flowed back into Lin Zhi's body.
Lin Zhi released the control over Xie Qing's body, intending to wait until his strength recovered before controlling Xie Qing's body again to bask in the sun.
He didn't open his eyes and continued to lie on the beach chair with his eyes closed, looking like he was about to fall asleep.
Lin Zhi didn't care that Shadow would hide after being free. After all, the boat was so small that he could find Shadow wherever he hid, not to mention that he also had 01 to locate the coordinates.
The young man moved his stiff body, his face and neck turned red from the sun.
He didn't go anywhere. He sat on another lounge chair and looked at Lin Zhi's sleepy face in the shade.
Chen Yun, who was sitting diagonally opposite them, looked at them and sighed, "It's great to be young."
We won’t get bored even if we stay together all day, and it seems that just looking at each other is interesting.
The female tourist holding a child who was chatting with her heard this and smiled and talked about her youth.
Chen Yun didn't care whether she was an NPC in the game and listened patiently.
She thought there might be a murder on the boat, and was prepared to see someone drowning in the swimming pool or a body falling, but nothing happened. She couldn't hold it in any longer if she just sat there like this, and she had to talk to someone.
They were chatting happily until the baby started crying and interrupted their chat. The woman was still a little reluctant to leave, but she had to go back to her room to feed the baby, as it was not convenient to do so in public.
The woman coaxed the child in her arms and said goodbye to Chen Yun with a smile: "Let's talk when we have time. We are all on the boat anyway."
Chen Yun nodded. She glanced at the second floor and realized that she might have been too focused on the conversation. Wu Zhongchuan and Geng Yi left the second floor at some point. As for Meng Ling, she had never seen her.
Fortunately, Lin Zhi and Xie Qing were still on the beach chairs, which made Chen Yun feel relieved.
She saw Xie Qing, who had been sitting, stand up. She wanted to go over to discuss the copy with him, but Xie Qing just shook his head slightly at her, put his index finger on the center of his lips, and made a gesture to keep quiet.
Chen Yun nodded, and watched Xie Qing walk to Lin Zhi's side, bend down and pick her up.
She raised her eyebrows slightly, it’s great to be young.
When Xie Qing approached, Lin Zhi heard 01's reminder in his mind.
He was shrouded in shadow and met the young man's eyes.
Xie Qing said in an intimate tone: "Wife, it's not comfortable to sleep here, let's go back to the room to sleep."
Lin Zhi didn't answer. He closed his eyes sleepily again and let Xie Qing pick him up.
