Chapter 174 Unknowingly Falling into the Trap



On the arena.

Apart from Xia Tianqiong and the scarred youth who was unable to move, the other four contestants took turns exchanging flower buds with the Flower Girl Ghost, again and again, as if they were addicted to opening blind boxes.

They also knew they couldn't bleed too much, otherwise their bodies wouldn't be able to handle it. They wouldn't use too much blood each time they watered the flower buds.

Xia Tianqiong observed silently from the side and discovered that even the same person would produce different results.

It's a complete mess, with all sorts of random things.

I suddenly became curious: what would I find if I tried to open it myself?

He also wanted to know what he longed for most in his heart.

So he walked up to the Flower Girl Ghost, cut his little finger, squeezed out a drop of blood, and exchanged it for a flower bud.

Then she walked to the side and pressed her bleeding little finger against the flower bud.

Fresh blood flowed rapidly from the wound, as if drawn by a suction force.

Xia Tianqiong quickly moved her fingers away, then slowly peeled open the tightly closed petals.

Just like last time, after peeling off the two layers, the flower buds automatically pop open and bloom like flowers.

In the center of the flower was a gold ingot the size of a thumb.

"Mingjin?"

Xia Tianqiong picked it up and examined it carefully. It did indeed have fluctuations of Netherworld power, which was very similar to Netherworld Gold.

He was a little surprised. He didn't lack ghost money, so how could the thing he craved most be ghost money?

After thinking for a moment, I went and got another flower bud to continue opening blind boxes.

This time, a middle-aged man actually got a ticket!

If you look closely, you'll see a resemblance between his eyebrows and Xia Tianqiong's.

“My child, from now on I am your father, and I will give you the fatherly love you have been missing.”

The man suddenly spoke, his face full of kindness.

Xia Tianqiong stared in disbelief, frozen in place.

But just a moment later, his face turned angry, and he shouted, "Get out of my way!"

With this roar, she stabbed the man directly with the knife in her hand, turning him into countless swirling pollen particles.

He grew up in an orphanage, where the director told him that his father abandoned his mother, and then his mother left him in the orphanage.

When I was little, I thought about my parents every day, but now I don't think about them anymore.

"That's interesting. It can actually dig out things from deep within memories."

Xia Tianqiong suddenly became interested in this strange phenomenon and continued opening blind boxes.

He seemed to have forgotten that this was a competition, and that the rules had to be broken.

Not only did he forget, but all the other contestants forgot too, as they were all busy opening blind boxes.

One after another, they just kept coming.

They also failed to notice that the audience had been unusually quiet since they came on stage, not making a sound at all.

The scene seen by the audience sitting in the stands was completely different from that of the six contestants.

From the audience's perspective, a small red flower was placed in the center of the venue, emitting a faint red glow.

The six contestants were enveloped in a light, talking to themselves and gesturing wildly, as if they were performing a pantomime; their behavior was quite bizarre.

Even stranger, they all cut their fingers or arms and dripped blood onto the ground, and the blood kept dripping more and more.

The blood automatically gathered on the ground, eventually flowing into the flowerpot, then spreading upwards along the outer wall of the flowerpot, and finally entering the inside of the flowerpot, where it was absorbed by the little red flower.

All the audience members stared wide-eyed, feeling both excited and amazed.

This kind of strangeness is very rare.

Mo Ling looked at the situation inside the arena and felt somewhat nervous.

"Second brother, what's wrong with them? They look so strange. I hope Chu Xu is alright."

Mo Beihan frowned deeply. "It seems they've fallen into some kind of illusion or lost their minds. The strange red light emitted by that potted plant might be some kind of sorcery."

"How about we shout it out to remind him?"

"They are within the red light range and shouldn't be able to hear it. Even if they do, the organizers might judge it as a failure because of our interference. Everything depends on him. We shouldn't interfere."

At this moment, in addition to feeling novel and interesting, the audience also began to worry about contestant number 56.

After all, many people have placed heavy bets on him!

This is Chu Xu's third game. If he can't break the deadlock, he will be eliminated, and many people will lose money because of him.

Manager's office.

A smile finally appeared on Liu Zhengyang's face. "The fragrance of the Bewitching Flower can not only put people into a hallucination, but it also contains poison."

It floats in the air and is everywhere. As long as there is a wound on the body, it will enter the body through the wound and affect the mind.

Those poisoned will gradually lose their senses, forgetting that this is a competition, and will only think about continuously bleeding out until they bleed to death.

Liu Yanfang stood aside, secretly relieved. "Thanks to Second Uncle's strangeness, otherwise we would have lost a lot of money. It's just a pity for young Chu Xu. It seems he's going to die in this game."

"So what if I die? I'm not a member of the Liu family."

"Second Uncle is right. It would be an honor for him to die here."

The two stood side by side in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, talking, when suddenly they both frowned.

Inside the arena, the other contestants were still bleeding out, but Chu Xu stood frozen in place, motionless.

He seemed extremely surprised, but then closed his eyes.

Liu Zhengyang suddenly had a bad feeling.

Inside the venue, Xia Tianqiong looked surprised because he opened a blind box and got a Ghost Bride!

This was a mysterious and unpredictable big shot, and Xia Tianqiong felt both gratitude and awe towards him.

Now that it's open, doesn't that mean it holds a very important place in one's heart?

Holy crap, could I actually be falling in love with it?!

As Xia Tianqiong stood there, her mind in turmoil, the "ghost bride" suddenly lifted her red veil, revealing a face without features.
