Before Wu Fei could come to her senses, Zhong Jiacheng left.
She looked at the dark sky outside the window, and felt a sharp pain in her abdomen, causing her to slowly close her eyes.
I don’t know how long I slept. When I opened my eyes again, I heard Ma Xiaoling and Chen Bing arguing outside the door.
“…You men’s words cannot be trusted at all!”
"You are an unreasonable woman!"
After the door was opened, Ma Xiaoling limped in.
When she got closer, Wu Fei saw the bruises on her face and immediately sat up: "What happened?"
Ma Xiaoling touched her cheek with her hand: "It's okay... I just fell down!"
"What do you mean 'nothing?'" Chen Bing leaned against the door, a look of sarcasm on his face. "She was nearly devoured by those weird jackals in the back mountain. If it weren't for Zhong Jiacheng, she would have turned into a pile of bones by now!"
Wu Fei was shocked. She quickly took Ma Xiaoling's hand and looked at her, saying in a trembling voice, "Why did you run to the back mountain alone?"
"You just want to find the bride's body in advance so that you can complete your mission and run away!" Chen Bing said sarcastically.
Ma Xiaoling's face darkened. Just as she was about to retort, she heard Wu Fei say, "No! Xiaoling is definitely not the selfish person you say she is!"
"I believe her!"
Ma Xiaoling looked at Wu Fei with a complicated expression, opened her mouth but said nothing.
Zhong Jiacheng walked in: "Okay, tonight we will go look for Xie Qing's body in the bamboo forest. You two should have a good rest."
Chen Bing sneered, "You seem to be very kind and considerate to women, but it's a pity that they want to ditch us and act on their own!"
Ma Xiaoling couldn't help but said, "You two are tasked with finding the groom, and Wu Fei and I are tasked with finding the bride. What's wrong with me going to find my task myself?"
"Xiaoling, although the task to complete the level is to find them both separately, Xie Qing hopes that we can bury them together." Wu Fei said hurriedly.
She seemed to have noticed some misunderstanding between Ma Xiaoling and Chen Bing, and fearing that they would develop a rift, she explained,
Ma Xiaoling glanced at her and said, "Okay, you're right!"
After Zhong Jiacheng and Chen Bing left, the yard became quiet.
Wu Fei was silent for a moment and said, "Why don't we go to the back mountain to take a look..."
After all, it's a female player's task, so I feel embarrassed to ask Zhong Jiacheng and Chen Bing for help.
"Alas! Even I returned empty-handed and almost lost my life there, so don't even think about asking for trouble." Ma Xiaoling smiled bitterly.
"I finally understand the true meaning of this dungeon..." Ma Xiaoling said unhappily, "The area behind the mountain is full of strange jackals. Few people can find those corpses."
Wu Fei frowned and said, "How can an average player possibly complete such a difficult mission?"
Ma Xiaoling looked depressed and stopped talking.
Wu Fei thought about it and muttered, "There is a way..."
In order to conserve her energy, Ma Xiaoling went back to her room to rest.
On the fifth night, there was finally no more noise coming from under the bed in Wu Fei's guest room.
After midnight, the well stopped singing and the mysterious figure of the woman in white never appeared again.
It seemed that everything had returned to calm.
But Wu Fei felt that this was like the calm before the storm, and after the calm there would be a bigger storm!
Wu Fei didn't close her eyes until the rooster crowed and then she got up from the bed.
She found that her feet had lost all feeling, just like the feeling of being frozen in the Northeast in winter. When she lifted her trouser legs, she saw that the paper had spread to her calves.
At this moment, she felt as if all the strength in her body had been drained away, her legs were shaking, and she had to support herself against the wall with her hands and groped her way out of the room.
Ma Xiaoling was not in much better condition. She limped and they supported each other as they came to the front hall.
The housekeeper stared at Wu Fei with a gloomy expression. After a while, he said, "Little girl, it's not good to pretend to be sick and lazy!"
Wu Fei pretended not to hear, but looked over his shoulder towards the front hallway.
As expected, there was a Wang Hui next to Liu Ming's paper figure on the left.
Wu Fei lowered her eyes, and only four of the eight players were left.
I don’t know if they can hold on in the last two days!
Wu Fei and Ma Xiaoling were surprised to find that neither Zhong Jiacheng nor Chen Bing came to the front hall today.
But when I didn't see the paper figures of the two of them appear, I breathed a sigh of relief.
A servant came over and whispered something into the butler's ear.
The housekeeper's cheeks twitched suddenly. "How ridiculous! We have to search the entire Xie Mansion to find them!"
Wu Fei and Ma Xiaoling were both shocked.
Are Zhong Jiacheng and Chen Bing hiding?
The two of them sat down tremblingly on the steps of the front hall, watching the housekeeper rush out of the yard with a group of servants, and they all sighed: "Why are we so stupid?"
Since I've already been punished for breaking the rules, why should I bother to rush to the front hall with my weak body?
At this time, the butler and a large group of servants were missing from the front hall. The remaining strange NPCs were a bit lazy, and no one was driving them to do anything.
The two of them just happened to have some free time.
However, due to not having eaten or drunk anything for a long time, their physical and mental strength were extremely poor. They could no longer do any physical work and just relied on each other to survive.
We waited like this until evening, but the housekeeper and others still hadn't returned.
Since the housekeeper was not there, there was no one to arrange dinner for them tonight. The maid took the two of them back to the guest room as usual.
Wu Fei opened the door and saw two people in the room at a glance.
Zhong Jiacheng was lying on her bed covered in blood, and Chen Bing, who was also dying, was leaning at the foot of the bed next to her.
