Chapter 16 "Father and Son" Can you tell me what is human? ...

It was fine for Zhuci, as Mo Anan and Xu An were still beside him, and even the other young man was there too.

Li Hang and Fang Yu are missing.

"It seems like they want to separate us here." said the young man with the earrings.

Before, he was holding Li Hang and Xu An, but in the blink of an eye, they were left with nothing.

These mists vaguely form the outline of a maze, but players can actually enter the mist. However, after entering and then returning, it is very likely that they will not be in the original place.

The congratulatory speech always remembers the hint of the southeast.

He wanted to try to go that way.

"If you have no objections, I will do it my own way." Zhuci said.

He was better at acting alone, but since his teammates had reached an agreement to go together, he didn't want to cause any more trouble.

"Brother Ci, do you want a tissue?"

Xu asked secretly.

Zhu Ci paused for a moment, then he noticed that his right eye was even more blurry than before.

I should have cried more.

He looked at the fork in the road and realized that one of the roads must be very dangerous.

But which one?

Zhu Ci glanced at the sky. The sun above his head had blurred into a small dot. Fortunately, he could still use it to determine the direction.

"Here."

Congratulations.

No one has any comments.

Zhu Ci continued walking forward. He needed to go to the roses as soon as possible to meet this person named Zhang Xiaowei. She might have more important clues in her hands.

"Okay." Xu An was very confident about his thighs.

Mo Anan glanced at Zhu Ci's face carefully.

Crystal clear tears slid down his cheek, like jasmine covered with dew, much more delicate than the white magnolia next to it.

She always has the illusion that the other person needs more protection than herself.

The choice of speech was correct.

The route he took was safer, but it also caused some trouble.

This is a camellia.

What’s amazing is that in the garden here, no matter how different the growing conditions are, all the flowers are blooming. Perhaps this is the charm of the game.

There was a little boy sitting under the camellia.

There were three baskets at the boy's feet. When he saw them, he asked, "Guess which basket contains your head?"

Several people were stunned for a moment.

Mo Anan asked: "A basket can only hold one head, and we have four. Who are you asking?"

"Oh." The little boy nodded and said, "Then I'll ask you."

Mo Anan looked at the little boy and said helplessly: "You have revealed the answer. Our heads are not in it."

The little boy asked: "Why am I exposed?"

"Because when you asked everyone at the beginning, you hadn't even thought about whose head to put in it." Mo Anan said.

The little boy was stunned for a moment.

Zhuci said: "Maybe your brain is inside it."

"…How did you know that?"

This problem is actually a psychological problem. Once the player guesses and thinks that their head is inside, then their current head is really just a decoration.

But the little boy probably didn't expect that there would be four of them coming together, and with only three baskets, he had no way of tricking them.

But the answer that came out of the last words of the speech was a bit scary.

Suddenly, he thought of something and said, "Can you open the basket and give you to me? Lin Xiaole said that she wanted me to take you home."

When the little boy heard the name, he scratched his head thoughtfully: "Lin Xiaole? Oh, I have some impression of her. Well, it doesn't matter whether I go back or not."

He didn't seem to have a strong desire to go back and looked quite dull.

Zhu Ci looked at the camellia. It was growing straight, freely and evenly. No matter how the sunlight shone on it, it looked almost the same on all four sides.

The little boy opened the basket. The round basket wrapped in cloth was not filled with anything spherical. Instead, it looked very clumsy, as if the cloth had been glued into a spherical shape. One of the objects contained a small metal plate, which he had picked up before the speech.

Zhu Ci took it and took a look at it.

"An Xiaoxi, boy, 6 years old."

There was a photo in the other basket.

Zhu Ci pointed at it and asked, "Can I take a look at it?"

"Can."

Zhu Ci picked up the photo, which showed a woman and several children.

"This lady is so beautiful, is she your mother?"

The boy nodded heavily: "Yes."

"Which room do you live in?"

"I kind of forgot, but Mom should remember it," said the boy.

"Is your mother still here?"

"Yes. Mom is always here."

Hearing this, Xu An and the others all frowned.

They had never seen any mistress in this manor. There was a maid, but it was obvious that she was not the boy's mother.

Zhu Ci stood up and said, "Thank you. We'll leave first."

"Wait, no gift?" the young man with earrings suddenly asked.

The boy scratched his head and said, "Oh, yes, there is a reward if you guess correctly. Let me think about it."

An Xiaoxi searched her body and took out a small marble.

Zhu Ci didn't reach out to take it. When he blinked, his right eye was wet with tears.

The young man with the earrings immediately reached out to take it.

"Hey? Why are you like this?" Xu An cried.

However, just as he shouted, the young man suddenly seemed to have seen something terrible.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he suddenly broke out in sweat, his mouth slightly open, a look of disbelief on his face.

Zhu Ci knocked the marble away, then swiftly took out the pen he had bought with his points and tapped him on the head several times.

[“Hahaha, you fell into my trap.”

"So, the things given by NPCs are not necessarily useful."

"This is a trap set by the boss for the players. This is not some welfare bureau. How could they allow these NPCs to give items to the players?"

"The host's hits were really neat. He even used a pen. Was he afraid of damaging the other person's head? It's kind of cute."

"How can someone be so handsome while crying?"】

…

The player finally came to his senses. He took a few breaths with lingering fear, glanced at the speech, and dared not act impulsively again.

Xu fell silent. He thought this was something good, but he didn't expect it to be like this.

Mo Anan looked at the little boy and asked, "Why did you give us these things?"

The little boy opened his mouth and said, "Is it not okay to share my toys? Besides, I'm really hungry."

He stared at Zhuci and them blankly, his two fangs looked very sharp.

Mo Anan also shut up.

She thought the ghost was harmless, but she didn't expect that it just stayed there for a while and would still eat what it needed.

"Let's go." Zhuci said, trying to pass the boy.

There was nothing more that could be asked from him.

The roses in the southeast were almost visible, but just when Zhu Ci thought they were almost there, his vision suddenly blurred.

…

At the same place, Xu An and Mo Anan looked at Li Hang who suddenly appeared, and their eyes widened immediately.

"you!"

Li Hang was gasping for breath, like a fish out of water.

He seemed to realize that he was safe, and he forced a smile on his face, feeling very relaxed.

Xu An went up to him and hit him: "What are you doing? Is this how you steal other people's achievements?"

Li Hang raised his head. The slap made him sober up a lot.

He immediately fought back, not wanting to be outdone: "Since it's a rule, I can take advantage of it, right? Besides, isn't that new guy very powerful? We can't lose any of us now. If he goes there, I can save my life, and we can all survive, isn't that good?"

His shamelessness was so shocking that Xu gritted his teeth and wished he could beat him to death.

Mo Anan said: "But, no matter how powerful Zhu Ci is, he is still a newcomer. What if he gets into trouble?"

The young man with earrings also looked at Li Hang with dissatisfaction.

Seeing Li Hang's current state, it seemed that he had encountered some difficult problems. However, under Zhu Ci's leadership, they were very harmonious all the way.

Zhuci played a much more important role than Li Hang. Without him, it would have been difficult for them to survive to the end.

…

But the matter was done, and Zhu Ci had already been transferred to the dangerous situation before Li Hang.

This is exactly what the boss wants to see.

[Fake speech: The fragile sacrifice finally suffered his first betrayal. Haha, the poor boy faced the vicious ghost. He estimated that he could only save his life by offering his body. How pitiful and sad.]

Being transferred over, the congratulatory speech was actually expected.

After all, Juying had mentioned the rules before. Since there is such a rule, someone will take advantage of it.

He didn't feel angry or resentful. When people are about to die, they will always abandon all moral choices to keep themselves alive. He didn't have any expectations of the morality of his teammates.

After being away from the crowd, Zhu Ci actually felt relieved. To be honest, sometimes he preferred to act alone.

But Li Hang's previous situation was indeed a bit difficult.

Zhu Ci looked at the little kid who was cooking soup in the pot in front of him.

"Hey, it's a different person." The little ghost with dark blue skin squinted his eyes and looked at Zhuci.

Compared to the previous child, this one is obviously more terrifying.

Zhu Ci nodded calmly: "What's wrong?"

His boredom was destined to be rejected by all ghosts. There was no excited reaction, no scream of terror. His eyes were so calm that through his weak appearance with tears in his eyes, his inside was like a pool of stagnant water.

No ghost likes a human who doesn't support him.

"You, cut off your flesh and make soup for me."

Zhu Ci was silent for a moment: "Oh? As long as it's meat, it's fine?"

"No, it has to smell like a human."

Zhu Ci continued to ask: "Then if I throw a few strands of hair into the pot, or spit a few mouthfuls of saliva, does that count?"

The little ghost frowned, as if he was about to explode: "No!"

"Why? Saliva and hair are both good tools for paternity testing. They contain rich human DNA. Meat also contains human DNA. The human smell you want should be that."

The little ghost pouted and looked furious: "How could you do this? That's so disgusting."

Zhuci was silent for a moment: "Maybe you can explain in more detail what human smell means. Is there any evidence that saliva does not have human smell?"
