"How is it? Did you see who it is?" Xiaohua asked as she looked at A Guang walking back.
"I ran too fast and didn't catch up, but he was very strong." Ah Guang tutted in annoyance and asked her, "Is the rabbit really gone?"
Xiao Hua nodded and said, "I checked and there's no one inside."
"Fuck!" The man slapped his bald head in regret. "I suspected he was a ghost before. What a fool I was!"
"Don't blame yourself. We had no idea there was an ambush here. Let's do the mission first. Everything will be easy once the items are unlocked." Xiao Hua quickly adjusted her mindset and regrouped. "Anyway, let's not doubt each other anymore. I believe you're human. What about you?"
"I also believe that you are a human being." A Guang said.
Rabbit floated in the air, looking at his two teammates and sighing. It was a pity that he couldn't just tell them that there was another ghost hiding under the table in the ancestral hall...
Xiaoxiang crawled out from under the table only after the people outside left.
After leaving the ancestral hall, he saw that there was really no one outside. He breathed a sigh of relief and set off for the meeting point agreed upon with Jiang Yan.
Meanwhile, Jiang Yan ran a distance before his transformation timer expired, returning him to his original form. He took a few breaths, glanced at the map, and prepared to join the group, only to unexpectedly run into three others who had just completed a mission at the pond around the corner.
"Jiang Yan? Why are you here alone?"
Zhang Ke, the yellow-haired boy nicknamed "I don't want to work overtime" who first suggested that they divide into groups, looked at him warily with a peach wood sword in his hand.
Behind Zhang Ke, "Little Kitty Woo Woo" in a blue T-shirt and white shorts and "You Shi Bu Hui" with dreadlocks were also staring at Jiang Yan closely.
"I came here to escape. I didn't expect to meet you. I was looking for Xiaoxiang, that's 'Jiliguala'." Jiang Yan's mind was working fast.
"Did the three of you separate?" Zhang Ke did not let down his guard because of his explanation and continued to ask.
Jiang Yan nodded, wiping the sweat from his forehead. He looked a little frightened. "'Da Zhuang Shuai' is a ghost. He attacked us right after Xiao Xiang finished her mission. But he didn't expect the item Xiao Xiang unlocked was the 'Life Saving Money'. He blocked a fatal attack and teleported away."
At this point, he spread out his hands to show them his empty hands: "I haven't completed the mission yet, and I don't have any props. Fortunately, his skills have been used up, so I can run away..."
"Money for my life?" The kitten behind Zhang Ke asked, "What kind of prop is that?"
"It's a very expensive item, a consumable one. It can indeed withstand a fatal attack and teleport to a random location." Zhang Ke said, taking back the peach wood sword, temporarily believing what Jiang Yan said.
"So you're going to look for Xiaoxiang now?" asked 'You're busy but not replying'. "Oh, you can call me Dalin, he's Zhang Ke, and this is Xiaomao."
"Yes, because now I am sure that only she and I are human." Jiang Yan nodded and lied without changing his expression.
"Why don't you come with us? We can look for Xiaoxiang together and complete any tasks along the way." Kitty suggested.
"Are you sure?" Jiang Yan hesitated for a moment, looking at the three people with a bit of doubt.
"Are you worried that we are ghosts?" His reaction made Zhang Ke feel a little relieved.
"Yes, I'm sorry, because I don't know you..." He didn't say it clearly, but no one here would blame him. They would only trust him a little because of his reaction.
After all, if Jiang Yan's identity is "human", it is normal for him to show hesitation and worry now. If he accepts the companionship without hesitation, it would be even more problematic.
Sure enough, Dalin explained to him, "It's definitely safer for you to follow us than to be alone, right? Besides, the three of us have already completed a mission. Look, everyone is fine now."
Jiang Yan immediately put on an expression as if he was persuaded and nodded: "Then I'll go with you."
[Good guy, I just said good guy! ]
"Brother, you're such a good actor! Would you mind playing the other half of my life?"
【Ahhh, husband, please deceive my heart ruthlessly! 】
[This is a bit troublesome. The host can't just meet up with Xiaoxiang right now.]
【I hope Xiaoxiang can hold on by herself! 】
Xiaoxiang, who was worried about her, was hiding behind a large water tank and shivering. She had arrived at the place she had agreed to meet with Jiang Yan, but Jiang Yan had not shown up yet.
Next to her was a room where the maids and old women lived. The door of the room had fallen into disrepair and the upper part was broken. It was now half hanging and shaking, making a constant creaking sound.
Xiaoxiang could only see that the house was pitch black from outside, but with the sound of the door opening, she started to feel scared after staying there for a long time.
"Wow, wow, I'm obviously the ghost..." She huddled behind a large water tank and spoke in a low voice.
"Is this the place?" Suddenly, other voices were heard in the yard, frightening her so much that she sat down on the ground. Someone immediately shouted, "Who's there! Come out!"
Xiaoxue was holding a round circle in her hand. This was the item she unlocked after completing the task. It was called the "Escrow Lock" and was a special item refreshed in her prop store. Not everyone could buy it.
Custody lock: Once you choose custody, you can no longer have your own ideas! After aiming at the target, the custody lock automatically restrains the target's head, and the left, right, front, and back directions of the user are reversed within 10 seconds.
Xiaoxiang swallowed her saliva. She knew that if she didn't go out, she would definitely be seriously suspected, so she quickly pinched herself, raised her hands above her head, and walked out tremblingly.
"It's me, it's me." She had tears in her eyes and was shaking, looking so pitiful.
If Jiang Yan was here, the comments would definitely praise this teammate's acting skills after seeing this scene. She is really good at playing the role of weakness, and she is so pitiful.
"Why are you alone?" Xiaoxue couldn't help but relax a little when she found out it was a girl.
Xiaoxiang sobbed and said, "'Da Zhuang Shuai' in our team is a ghost. He wanted to kill me by surprise. But he didn't realize that the item I unlocked after completing the mission was 'Life Buying Money'. It automatically activated when I received a fatal attack, and then I was teleported here."
I guess no one would have thought that the story Xiaoxiang made up matched Jiang Yan's perfectly. Poor Xiaoshuai floated in the air, cursing and taking it all on.
"Is Dazhuang handsome?" Daya, who was standing next to Xiaoxue, thought for a moment and asked, "The dark-skinned, muscular one?"
"Yes, that's him. The tool saved my life, but I don't know what's happening to my other teammate right now..." Xiaoxiang said, "I didn't dare to go alone, so I hid."
