Wu Fei glanced at her and smiled: "What secret do you think we have?"
"He likes you?"
Wu Fei didn't explain and pretended to be shy: "Don't guess blindly..."
He once again unleashed his acting talent, but in his heart he once again said sorry to Ma Xiaoling.
"I was wondering why that guy was trying to please me for no reason!" Ma Xiaoling said with an "I knew it" look.
"But I always feel that guy is more hidden than Chen Bing. You should be more careful."
"Um!"
Wu Fei stopped talking and kept her strength to wait for the arrival of midnight.
Suddenly I thought of a question.
When all players enter the game, a mechanical voice prompts that the task of passing the level is for male and female players to find the missing bride and groom respectively.
If Zhong Jiacheng and Chen Bing had already found the remains of the two men, why didn't they meet the conditions for passing the level?
She asked this question softly.
Ma Xiaoling was stunned for a moment and said, "Could there be some mistake?"
Wu Fei lowered her head in thought, then suddenly realized: "Bride and groom?"
"They only found their remains, but they haven't officially become bride and groom. Therefore, they must go to the small ancestral hall to hold a ceremony for them and bury them together. Only then can the conditions be fulfilled!"
Ma Xiaoling said angrily, "I was wondering why those two guys were so kind."
"The biggest unspoken rule of this game is that we, male and female players, need to unite and work together to reach a consensus on the conditions for clearing the game. If anyone has selfish motives, there's no way to clear the game."
Ma Xiaoling sneered: "Isn't Zhou Meili just a case?"
Wu Fei suddenly felt deeply moved.
Zhou Meili had the ability of mental defense, but she did not use it well and eventually lost her life.
"After Zhou Meili turned into a paper man, she actually wanted to seek revenge on you, which is why she lost her life. Otherwise, after this copy was completely over, she might have been able to take advantage of it and return to her own world..." Ma Xiaoling sneered.
Wu Fei said in a deep voice: "How many people have to die before this game stops?"
She suddenly looked at Ma Xiaoling: "You have entered the dungeon four times?"
"If I can go back alive this time, that will be five times!" Ma Xiaoling rolled up her sleeves.
Wu Fei looked at the four red marks on her wrist and frowned, "You've been through so many dungeons, but have you ever thought about investigating the secrets behind these dungeon games?"
Ma Xiaoling was stunned by her words.
"I... every time I survive, I'm preparing for the next time I enter the game, just hoping to survive. I've never had such a bold idea as yours..."
Wu Fei slowly shook her head: "Everything that happens must have a cause and effect. The arrival of the copy in our world must not be accidental..."
What exactly is the reason why innocent people are persecuted by this horrible game?
"Don't think about it. You are not a saint. Just survive first!" Ma Xiaoling glanced at her and lay down beside her.
Wu Fei stared at the ceiling above her head without saying a word.
Zhong Jiacheng said that he was just like himself, an unlucky guy who was chosen.
Chosen by what?
I can only wait for the right time to ask clearly.
Midnight arrived soon, and Wu Fei and Ma Xiaoling got up and went to the next room.
Zhong Jiacheng and Chen Bing were also ready and walked out of the room.
"Let's go!" Zhong Jiacheng said, "If we're lucky, we won't hear the cockcrow before dawn again."
Wu Fei and Ma Xiaoling followed the two men and walked deeper into the yard, a place they had never set foot in before.
I don’t know how many corners I turned or how many forks in the road I took, but I finally arrived at a remote courtyard.
"This is the small ancestral hall!" Chen Bing said gritting his teeth.
In order to find the two corpses, he and Zhong Jiacheng almost lost their lives.
In order to find this small ancestral hall hidden deep in the Xie Mansion, they fought a life-and-death battle with the group of weirdos led by the housekeeper...
But Zhong Jiacheng didn't allow him to tell the two women about the suffering they had endured!
He was so angry!
Zhong Jiacheng pushed open two heavy wooden doors, and the dark yard was empty.
Seeing the empty yard, Wu Fei remembered Xie Qing's words.
Xinxin was lured into the small ancestral hall by Zhang, and was tortured to death by her own hands.
And until the moment of her death, Xinxin believed that Xie Qing had betrayed her...
Zhong Jiacheng opened the door to the main hall and said, "We have found their remains... but we still need a ceremony to find the real bride and groom."
Wu Fei looked at him with a complicated expression: "Thank you for your hard work..."
We had agreed before that the four of us would go look for it together.
But Zhong Jiacheng allowed her and Ma Xiaoling to take advantage of the situation.
"It was you who found Xie Qing at the bottom of the ancient well. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to find the corpse and the way to pass the level so quickly."
Zhong Jiacheng said: "Since we have chosen to join forces, what difference does it make whether we do more or less?"
Chen Bing: “…”
There were two coffins in the main hall, one large and one small.
Although it is a small ancestral hall, there is nothing in this hall except two black coffins, which makes it look extremely desolate.
There were two yellow talismans sealed on the lid of the coffin.
"This is..." Wu Fei looked at the totem on the talisman and felt a little strange. "It doesn't look like something from Taoism?"
"This must be a sorcery specially concocted by Zhang, with the intention of preventing Xie Qing and Xinxin from ever being husband and wife in their lifetimes!"
Ma Xiaoling asked, "Wu Fei, what should we do now?"
Wu Fei stepped forward and looked at the furnishings in the small ancestral hall. "I think this should be where Xie Qing wanted to hold his wedding with Xinxin. As long as we put the remains in the coffin, won't it symbolize their marriage?"
"What are you waiting for? Tear off that broken thing quickly!" Chen Bing was already impatient. He dragged his legs, which were gradually losing strength, forward and tore off the talisman.
A flash of lightning struck him, sending him flying backwards and causing him to fall heavily to the ground!
Chen Bing suddenly screamed, "Damn it!"
A flame actually started burning from the bottom of his feet.
The other three immediately rushed over and frantically put out the flames on his body!
Chen Bing stared at his burnt black feet, his face twitching. "I don't want to be turned into a paper man anymore! Damn it!"
At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the door.
The housekeeper came with his men.
Zhong Jiacheng rushed over immediately, closed the gate with extremely quick movements, and bolted it.
"We have to hurry up and put the bones into the coffin!"
Wu Fei nodded: "I'll help you!"
Ma Xiaoling had no choice but to accept her fate and drag Chen Bing, whose foot was burned to ashes, into the hall.
Chen Bing snorted, "Try it if you can!"
Ma Xiaoling also worriedly said, "If we get struck by lightning again, won't everyone be burned to death?"
Everyone understood each other tacitly, and everything below the calves turned into paper.
If something terrible happens again, everyone's life will be lost in this copy.
Wu Fei looked at the two coffins and thought for a moment: "The coffin Chen Bing touched just now was the woman's..."
