Chapter 74 Let’s take a bath together! (XI)
Fu Xiaoju was thrown wildly by the octopus monster and wailed in the air: "Ah - my soap - ah -"
Mu Yu: "..." You're almost dead and still thinking about soap! !
He endured the severe pain in his waist, quickly thought of a solution, and made a prompt decision. He bypassed the octopus monster and ran towards Area 1, rushing straight into Fu Xiaoju's shower room.
On the wall of the cubicle hung a soap box that was purchased by the bathhouse in bulk, and Fu Xiaoju's green soap was lying in the box.
Just as Mu Yu was about to reach out to take it, he keenly noticed that the color of the bottom of the soap was a little bit wrong. Upon closer inspection... there was some khaki foam under the soap!
He immediately retracted his hand and looked around vigilantly, and found that there were more khaki foam hidden in the corner of the right gutter of the shower room!
The moment he noticed it, the foam suddenly shrank into the shower room next door.
Mu Yu immediately ran to the shower room next door, pulled back the curtain, and was immediately shocked.
——The ochre-colored foam piled up more than one meter high, towering above the ditch like a small hill. The bottom had even quietly spread to the tiled floor. They were wriggling and trembling as if they had life!
Mu Yu took a deep breath and shouted at the top of his voice: "Lao Li! Lao Li! There is something dirty here!"
Bathhouse Rule No. 9: If you find dirt in the bathhouse, please call Master Li to clean it up, and never touch it yourself.
Rule 3 for getting soap: Do not dirty your soap. If the soap is dirty, remember to rinse it clean in time.
Mu Yu was almost certain that Fu Xiaoju must have touched the soap without noticing that his own soap was contaminated, which was why he became like that!
Soon, Lao Li appeared behind him, dragging a mop.
He walked past Mu Yu, entered the cubicle expressionlessly, and picked up the mop to deal with the foam.
The foam was quickly pushed apart, and strange noises gradually came from inside, as if someone was talking.
"Ah... wu... don't... I just... just need... soap..."
A face actually appeared among the bubbles—Wang Shi’s face!
Just like a pancake crust spread out in a pan, his dough was also spread out on a pile of foam, floating up into the sky.
His eyes were lifeless, foam kept coming out of his mouth, and his words were unclear: "It's so dirty... I need... soap... wuwu..."
Mu Yu instantly got goosebumps all over his body.
It turns out that the foam that Senior Liu Yu saw on the floor of the cubicle in Area 3 was——
He took a deep breath again, tried to keep a straight face, pointed to Fu Xiaoju's cubicle, and said to Lao Li: "Lao Li, there is a piece of soap in here that is also dirty. Could you please clean it first?!"
Old Li glared at him, as if scolding him for not saying it earlier, then turned around with a sullen face and walked into Fu Xiaoju's shower room, picked up the green soap, turned on the shower, and put it under the shower.
After just two rinses, the soap was clean.
Mu Yu shouted "Thank you", snatched the soap from Lao Li, rubbed it on himself, and then turned around and ran to Area 2!
The huge body of the octopus monster almost occupied the entire entrance to Area 2, and Mu Yu had to bend down to avoid the waving tentacles.
He crawled into Area 2 with difficulty, and when he looked up, he saw that half of Fu Xiaoju's body was in the octopus monster's mouth!
Swearing once more, he rushed back to his cubicle, turned on the shower and stood under the scalding stream of water.
Suddenly——
The octopus monster let out a loud scream, opened its mouth and spit out Fu Xiaoju!
The tentacles slapped the surrounding walls randomly, creating cracks. The roar was deafening, and the area around the octopus monster's mouth was all burned red!
At this moment, Fu Xiaoju's whole body was red, as if he had just been soaked in boiling water. His upper body was still covered with the octopus monster's wet and sticky saliva, and it was shiny.
Fu Xiaoju was dizzy and was pulled up by Mu Yu. He was still mumbling, "I'm so hungry. I want to eat soap..."
"You'll have enough to eat after you get out of this copy!" Mu Yu cursed.
Mu Yu felt like he was in an action movie. He was holding up Fu Xiaoju's heavy body, which weighed 150 kilograms, while dodging the octopus's crazy tentacles!
After finally running to Area 1, he felt that his strength was almost exhausted!
He left Fu Xiaoju in the corner, went into a shower room, swiped his card to take a shower, and there was only one dot left on the card.
Soon, the octopus monster crawled out from the depths of the passage with a roar.
Mu Yu stared at himself on the tile wall. The figure on the wall began to look a little strange, and in the image behind him reflected on the wall, the figure of the octopus monster was getting closer and closer to him.
At the moment when countless tentacles squeezed into this small shower room, Mu Yu swiftly dodged and pressed his back against the side wall partition!
The octopus monster instantly broke into the wall and disappeared without a trace!
The shower stall was empty.
Mu Yu breathed a sigh of relief and broke out in a cold sweat.
…Okay, the octopus monster has been dealt with, the next question is how to exchange the damage he and Fu Xiaoju suffered…
Mu Yu calmed down and thought about it, and an idea came to his mind.
He ran to Area 2, picked up the soap he had dropped on the ground, then returned to Area 1 and picked up Fu Xiaoju's soap.
Fu Xiaoju's eyes lit up when he saw the soap and he swallowed hard: "Mu, Mu Yu, just let me lick it..."
Mu Yu: "...Can you please stop being so disgusting!"
Fu Xiaoju froze: "...I'm really too hungry! Wuuuu!" Feeling aggrieved.
Mu Yu first used Fu Xiaoju's soap to rub on himself - this was his second time using this soap.
Then he covered Fu Xiaoju's mouth with his hand and rubbed the soap on Fu Xiaoju's body.
He held his breath and watched closely the changes in both of them.
...Soon, the soreness in his waist disappeared, but his skin felt hot, as if he had just been burned.
The slight redness on Fu Xiaoju's body disappeared, he screamed and suddenly covered his waist!
Damage transfer is back!
Sure enough, using each other's soap again would cancel out the original effect!
Mu Yu was cheered up, but before he could feel happy, he heard the earth-shaking clanging sounds coming from Area 3 again, and the sounds were approaching them rapidly.
Mu Yu raised his head, a look of shock on his face.
...Another octopus monster has arrived? ! !
Principal Dou and Brother Bird are showing off their power in another dimension!
He quickly ran back to his cubicle, turned on the shower, and imitated the shadow in the wall.
When the third octopus monster rushed in fiercely, he stepped aside and successfully pushed it into the wall!
Mu Yu was panting, looking up, and leaning against the wall in exhaustion.
...Anything else?! If there is anything else, could you please give it all to him in one go?
He stared blankly, standing there waiting.
And then for a whole minute, there was no movement in the bathhouse.
It was so quiet all around that even the sound of a drop of water falling on the ground could be heard.
...Mu Yu finally let out a long sigh.
He wiped his face, calmed his breathing, and stepped out of the shower.
Fu Xiaoju was leaning against the side weakly at the moment, muttering, "Soap... I'm so hungry..."
Mu Yu walked over, looked helplessly for two seconds, and squatted in front of him: "Hey, Ma'er, do you still have strength?"
Fu Xiaoju's eyes rolled and he looked at him drowsily.
"Although it's different from what we planned, you just used the red soap. Do you feel better?"
Fu Xiaoju had a dazed look on his face.
Mu Yu almost suspected that there was something wrong with his intelligence. Fortunately, Fu Xiaoju was not really stunned, but was thinking.
He thought hard and said, "... OK, I don't feel anything. Is it still the same as before... light, light and fluttery...?"
Mu Yu frowned.
No use?
Could it be that he guessed wrong, and the red soap could not restore the player whose clone was separated from him to his original state?
But that's impossible. It's clearly written in the rules and it doesn't seem fake.
Well, is it because that piece of red soap was his, so it had no effect when Fu Xiaoju used it?
But Fu Xiaoju was in such a state that he obviously didn't have the energy to finish rubbing his own piece of green soap and go get the red soap...
What should I do then?
Mu Yu pondered, his eyes turning slightly.
——Or, could it be that the soap had no effect because during the two scrubbings just now, the soap only touched too small an area of Fu Xiaoju’s body?
...In other words, the quantity is not enough?
Thinking of this, Mu Yu's tone became heavy: "Horse."
Fu Xiaoju was in a daze, his thoughts almost drifted into outer space, and the only two words in his mind were "I'm so hungry".
Suddenly he heard Mu Yu's low voice, and he was startled and immediately woke up.
He trembled and said, "...What are you doing? Am I going to die...?!"
He felt that Mu Yu would announce his death as solemnly as the surgeon on the operating table in the next second!
Mu Yu was still serious: "Do you want to die?"
Fu Xiaoju was angry and said, "...Of course I don't want to!"
He was trembling with fear, and then he saw Mu Yu raised his chin in a noble and cold manner, and stretched out his slender index finger and moved it to the side.
"——Come on, lie down here and don't move!"
Fu Xiaoju: “……?”
Ten seconds later.
Fu Xiaoju was like a little suckling pig at the mercy of others, lying flat on the ground with blank eyes.
Mu Yu squatted beside him, struggling to rub soap on his body.
After wiping the front from neck to feet, I patted his belly and said, "Here, turn over."
Fu Xiaoju suddenly felt like he had turned into a pancake again. The pancake chef had just spread sauce on the front of him, and now he was spreading sauce on the back.
He turned over automatically with a wooden face.
Mu Yu waited for two seconds before grunting and continuing to help him apply soap - with the time difference, this can be counted as the second time to apply soap, right? This back and forth can just offset the effect of the damage transfer!
When Mu Yu had finished wiping his back, Fu Xiaoju raised his head in a daze and uttered, "Mom..."
Mu Yu almost slapped him.
"No, I wanted to ask if I could get up. The floor is so hard..."
Before he could finish his words, Fu Xiaoju froze, staring blankly behind Mu Yu.
Mu Yu slightly tensed his body and turned around suddenly, and a humanoid monster appeared silently in the passage.
It was very tall, with large bones all over its body. Its two hands were like animal claws, slightly open, with sharp nails, and it was naked.
It lowered its head slightly, with its slightly long black hair covering its face wetly. However, no matter how much it covered itself, it could still be seen clearly from the front... It had a face exactly the same as Fu Xiaoju's, but its eyes were evasive, as if it didn't dare to approach them.
Mu Yu's expression softened.
He said, "Come here."
The humanoid monster hesitated in place, as timid as a stray dog.
Mu Yu stood up, stepped aside and gave up his seat.
…The humanoid monster looked at him, and under his encouraging eyes, walked over cautiously.
It walked step by step to Fu Xiaoju and stopped.
Fu Xiaoju was still lying on the ground, staring at it blankly.
It looked down at Fu Xiaoju, hesitatingly.
Then, it knelt down, opened its arms, bent down, and hugged Fu Xiaoju... The whole person turned into a shadow and merged into Fu Xiaoju's body.
Fu Xiaoju shuddered.
He slowly got up from the ground and looked down at his hands.
Mu Yu stared at him and asked, "How do you feel now?"
"…I don't feel light-headed anymore, and I feel more normal, but…"
As Fu Xiaoju spoke, he stretched his neck forward.
Mu Yu paused.
Fu Xiaoju said blankly: "Am I really going to die? I really want to vomit now..."
After he finished speaking, he supported himself on the ground with his hands, opened his mouth, and suddenly spat out a lot of khaki foam.
