Guo Sheng is a rat-person, and Liu Ya is a cat-person.
If eliminating one side would end the game early, should you do it? And which side should you eliminate?
The cat people only make up about one-tenth of the total population, and more than half of them died in the first round, leaving only one or two thousand people. But the rat people still have fifty or sixty thousand.
In comparison, it seems that killing all the cat people was the right choice.
Liu Ya looked worried. She was still young and in the prime of her life, and she didn't want to die here.
Guo Sheng frowned. "Don't worry, it's just a guess. It might not work. There might be another way."
Liu Ya knew his opponent well. If killing either the cat-man or the rat-man would end the game, he would definitely choose to kill all the cat-men without hesitation.
Sacrificing the minority to save the majority is the consistent approach of the Bureau of Mysterious Affairs.
"Gentlemen, this game doesn't seem too dangerous. Why don't we split up? I want to look around."
Xia Tianqiong suddenly offered his opinion.
Guo Sheng paused for a moment, then nodded in agreement, "Alright, be careful, try to hide well, and don't do anything strange to avoid triggering the death rule."
"Yes, take care of yourselves too."
Just as Xia Tianqiong was about to leave, Guo Sheng called him back and handed him something the size of a cigarette box.
"This is a specially designed communication box that can also be used here. If there is any danger, press this button and we will come to find you."
If the red light above is flashing rapidly, it means we are in danger or urgently need to contact you. Please follow the arrows on the screen to find us.
The Ghost Realm is isolated from heaven and earth, as well as communication signals. This thing is a communication device specially made by the Administration Bureau. It cannot make calls, but simple information can be transmitted through the indicator lights and positioning function on it.
In my previous life, this item was an essential item for every ghost-hunting team.
Xia Tianqiong took the communication box and turned to leave.
Not long after he left, Liu Ya asked, "Why did you let him leave? Wouldn't it be safer to stay together?"
Guo Sheng shook his head. "I was planning to find an excuse to get rid of him, but I didn't expect him to leave on his own."
"Why?"
"We need to find out more rules as soon as possible. He hasn't joined the management bureau yet, so it's not convenient for him to see our way of doing things."
As they talked, the two left the street and entered a series of courtyards.
Liu Ya was blind at the moment and was being led by Guo Sheng.
After Xia Tianqiong left, he strolled among the white walls and black tiles like a tourist, looking at the courtyard and the wooden carvings on the beams.
Unlike the others, he was not flustered at all.
This area of Hui-style architecture is full of life, and the white walls seem to have been weathered by wind and rain for thousands of years, leaving many mottled marks of time.
Each courtyard is fully furnished, and daily necessities are readily available.
There were neatly arranged sheets of paper on the desk, and freshly ground ink on the inkstone.
The table was full of dishes, which were cold but had not spoiled.
It's as if people were living here just yesterday, and then they all disappeared overnight.
Xia Tianqiong suddenly felt that this was not a strange space that had evolved out of thin air, but rather a small piece of real space that had been cut off and turned into a strange realm at a certain time and place in ancient times.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be so full of life.
If that's the case, then everything here is real and can be brought back to the real world.
Xia Tianqiong suddenly became interested. There were many paintings, calligraphy, porcelain, and various rosewood furniture here. If they were taken back to the real world, they would all be antiques.
Although a chaotic era is about to begin and antiques will be worthless, he wants to collect some and place them in the mirror space to create an antique-style environment so that he can go in and experience the ancient style when he has nothing to do.
Thinking of something and doing it, Xia Tianqiong began to wander between various courtyards. While others were trying to find a hiding place, he was collecting all sorts of items.
"Get out of the way, I was here first, you go somewhere else."
When a wardrobe was opened, a man was found hidden inside.
"Sorry to bother you."
Xia Tianqiong closed the cabinet door and turned to leave, but she didn't close it completely. The man saw the scene in the room through the crack and was immediately shocked.
Pushing open the cabinet door, he saw that the room, which used to contain tables, chairs, utensils, potted plants, calligraphy and paintings, was now empty except for the cabinet where he was hiding.
It's like it was moved away by a moving company.
"Damn it, how are we supposed to hide people here?!"
There was only a wardrobe left in the room, which looked extremely out of place and was obviously no longer suitable for hiding. The man cursed and left quickly to find another hiding place.
Xia Tianqiong scavenged for various items in the Ghost Realm, and what he was most proud of was a bronze mirror.
It's palm-sized, with a smooth, mirror-like surface and exquisite patterns engraved on the back.
This is much sturdier than a glass mirror, and it looks better too.
They quickly moved the original abandoned object into the bronze mirror, allowing the Mirror Ghost and the Gambling Ghost to relocate inside.
For the Mirror Ghost Clan, any mirror that can reflect people will suffice.
Xia Tianqiong held the bronze mirror and used another hundred taels of gold to create a mirror space inside it.
They even specially selected a grand, exquisite, and elegant courtyard and replicated it in the mirrored space.
Then they moved everything that could be moved from the yard into the space and arranged it as it was originally.
Although various items can be replicated, they lack realism, so Xia Tianqiong replaces them with real ones.
He even wanted to dismantle the entire courtyard building and move it into the space.
Unfortunately, it couldn't be restored after being disassembled, so we had to give up.
While they were looting, a cry came from a courtyard.
"Please, don't look for me, I don't want to die!"
