Chapter 126 Two Zhang Lian
"Didn't the system say that the Advanced Pseudo-Human Dungeon would be opened in two months?" Liu Yuche unscrewed the bottle cap and drank half a bottle of cold water. "Without the entrance to the dungeon, how can we enter the Advanced Pseudo-Human Dungeon?"
Sun Yuancheng's focus was on the other side: "The system is shut down. Now I can't even see the real-time scoreboard. How can you be sure that you can finally be in the top ten and have a chance to enter the high-level league?"
Liu Yuche shrugged and said nonchalantly: "The Gaofei selection is for teams. As long as one person in the team meets the score requirement, in principle everyone in the team can enter. With Zhang Xingzhi at the top of the scoreboard, why should we worry about these things?"
Sun Yuancheng was stunned: "Does that mean I have to enter the high-level fake copy too?! No..."
The little character in the game he was operating huddled in the corner, motionless. Sun Yuancheng wanted to hold the table and cry: "Can I last for half a day in this dungeon? I'm so young and so handsome... This is why God is jealous of talents. I am now Wang Wei who crossed the river, Guo Jia who was seriously ill, Galois who died in a duel..."
"Hurry up," Liu Yuche patted him, "Someone threw a grenade next to you."
"ah?!"
"No matter what, the dungeon follows the rules," Sun Yuancheng accepted the fact with a heavy face. He controlled the game character to run towards Liu Yuche and sighed, "It will open when they say it will, and it has never been delayed. Such a large virtual world was almost collapsed by the mechanical mutation before. Maybe the system was also attacked by hackers and is currently shutting down for emergency maintenance."
He had just teamed up with Liu Yuche to get a triple kill, and couldn't help but praise him: "Liu Yuche, I didn't expect you to be able to use a gun in real life, and you're so good at sniping in the game, you're really awesome."
Liu Yuche crushed the lollipop and smiled cheerfully: "I'll take you to two stages tonight."
"Sun Yuancheng, your last wave of smoke was not good. There are strategies for this kind of shooting game," Zhang Xingzhi said thoughtfully, "I have read hundreds of strategy posts before. Let me sort them out."
"How many?" Sun Yuancheng was shocked. "Hundreds?!"
Zhang Xingzhi held a cup in his hand, with a calm face: "In order to prevent myself from getting panicked by accidentally entering a gunfight dungeon one day, I made some preparations in advance. Only by not fighting an unprepared battle can we maximize our chances of winning."
"Okay, okay, I'll feel relieved to have you pillars of support join me in the dungeon in two months." Sun Yuancheng clasped his fists.
Li Ziyue leaned against the wall and thought for a few seconds: "Do you know... why my senior sister and I suffered such serious casualties six years ago?"
Li Ziyue rarely mentioned the details of "Advanced Pseudo-Human Copy" six years ago, and everyone turned to look at him.
"At that time, the system clearly notified us that we were eligible to participate in the Advanced Pseudo-Human Dungeon, and we did go to the basement to select the dungeon, but," he paused, "nothing happened."
"Huh?" Sun Yuancheng frowned.
"The normal order is: select the dungeon → enter the player lobby → enter the dungeon."
"But nothing happened at the time. We thought the system had failed, but everything was normal except that we couldn't enter the instance."
Li Ziyue breathed a sigh of relief: "We spent the whole afternoon trying to find the solution but to no avail. We finally decided to go back and come back the next day to check again, and then..."
He stopped talking.
Then tragedy struck.
"Is there a possibility," Liu Yuche pondered, "that after you selected the copy, the copy had already been opened, but you didn't know it."
Li Ziyue said nothing.
"But, does the opening time match?" Sun Yuancheng pondered, "Except for no response after selecting the copy, there is no other abnormality."
"Yes." He answered softly, "The Advanced Pseudo-Human Dungeon is the most logically confusing dungeon I have ever encountered. If you follow the rules, you will die. If you don't follow the rules, you will also die. And you can't start over. Which tasks can be trusted and which cannot be trusted can only be tested with human lives."
Li Ziyue seldom speaks so absolutely.
"That being said, there's no way to clear the dungeon." Sun Yuancheng frowned.
"No," Zhang Xingzhi pondered, "The content of each Advanced Pseudo-Human Dungeon is different. During this period, the live broadcast room and the player system have also been constantly updating versions. As a player, you must firmly believe that 'there is no dungeon that cannot be cleared' and don't scare yourself."
Zhang Xingzhi's encouragement was very effective and successfully transformed Sun Yuancheng's face from a shriveled wolfberry to a dry bitter gourd.
"Ten days' advance warning?" Zhang Xingzhi looked at Zhang Lian who was quietly playing Sudoku in the corner. "In the past, the total score list of the Advanced Pseudo-Rencond Dungeon was closed ten days after it was opened, and the list of players eligible to participate in the dungeon would also be released. I have some connections, so maybe I can get some useful information."
"If the system and the dungeon entrance haven't returned to normal by then, I'll think of a solution."
"OK."
Sun Yuancheng glanced at Zhang Xingzhi without leaving a trace and did not offer any opinion.
Soon another month passed, and everyone had basically adapted to life in this world.
Li Ziyue was sitting in a taxi on his way home. It was late at night and the car was driving slowly. He began to feel a little sleepy.
A few minutes ago, Zhang Lian sent a message saying that he met someone from his mother's side and would be back a little later.
Li Ziyue turned off his cell phone, closed his eyes lazily, and prepared to take a nap.
In order to prevent fatigue from driving late at night, the driver turned on the radio in the front.
A crackling sound of electricity was heard and the voice of the radio host gradually became blurred.
"Recently, the zoo rules have suddenly become popular. Some citizens who are obsessed with the rules have called the program one after another, saying that they have seen escaped rabbits on the roadside many times, often heard strange rabbit laughter at night, and there are always people in black work clothes walking around at their doorsteps..."
"We have contacted Mr. Liu and hope he can share more details with us."
"Hello, Mr. Liu."
"Hello, hello."
The driver glanced at Li Ziyue who was sitting in the passenger seat.
Li Ziyue's eyes were closed and he had fallen asleep.
He turned the volume button and turned up the radio a little.
"When I first encountered a rabbit, I wanted to catch it and kill it for food. I didn't expect this rabbit to be so clever. It stopped when it saw that I couldn't catch it, and ran away as fast as I could when I tried to catch it!"
"I chased it, and guess where it ended up? A grave!"
"It was late at night, there was no light around, and I only had a cell phone with me. The grave was eerie and scary, and I was scared to death!"
"Okay Mr. Liu..."
"Rabbit, do you know? Do you know rabbit?" Mr. Liu's voice suddenly became sharp.
“Sizzle——”
The man's scream was mixed in with a long, harsh electric sound, and it was impossible to hear what was being said on the other end.
We have already got off the highway and the number of vehicles around us has dropped sharply. This place is the junction of urban and rural areas. There are densely packed rice fields all around, and willow trees as tall as adults grow on both sides of the waterway.
The driver turned off his night headlights, and the light ahead suddenly narrowed.
The speed of the vehicle slows down.
The driver's cold gaze remained on Li Ziyue.
The signal was restored briefly.
"The rules say you can't chase rabbits at night. Rabbits can't talk, you know that? Huh? Rabbits can't talk! Bullshit, these days those dead rabbits... those dead rabbits have been pretending to be human and talking under my bed, saying they want to kill me! Bury me! Rabbits! Dead rabbits!"
"Mr. Liu, please calm down..."
A cold male voice suddenly interrupted.
[“You’ve already entered the game the moment you saw something strange, but unfortunately you didn’t know it.”]
[“If you don’t see the rules in advance, you will die immediately.”]
"Damn it! Who said I didn't see it?"
"Mr. Liu, what are you talking about?" the female host asked in confusion. "What do you mean by did you see it? What happened to you?"
"What right do you have to say that I will die?" Mr. Liu grabbed his hair like a madman, and said in a panic, "Who are you? Who are you?"
"Mr. Liu, I'm the host," the female host said quickly, "No one here said you would die..."
The strange male voice continued.
[“You break the rules and you will die immediately.”]
“Rules, rules, rules, death…death, I saw it…” It was as if someone had grabbed Mr. Liu’s throat, and he had difficulty speaking. “The dead rabbits I saw…looked like me, looked like him, looked like you…”
"At night, the gray man stood up, the black bear stood up, the brown sheep stood up... like people, like people!"
"Eat my feet in one bite, eat my hands in one bite, eat--"
The radio was completely interrupted and the wheels stopped rolling.
Under the low beam, a sliver of white seemed to glow.
Li Ziyue narrowed his eyes and stretched lazily in the narrow space.
The phone behind him popped up a reminder saying "We have deviated from the normal planned route", but he didn't see it.
"Why did you stop?" He was still sleepy.
All the driver's previous dirty thoughts disappeared.
He stared blankly at the thing under the low beam.
In the middle of the dark country road, stood a snow-white rabbit.
…
The simulation in this virtual world is really getting better and better, and he will even encounter situations where drivers try to take a detour and blackmail him.
Li Ziyue rubbed his sore wrist and looked coldly at the driver who was driving obediently beside him because of his beating.
The driver had a big bump on his forehead and a simple smile on his face.
"Haha," he swallowed, "Cancel the order on the platform, and we won't charge you for it."
"Well," Li Ziyue looked down at his phone, "If I file a complaint against you successfully, I can still get it..."
“No, no, no,” the driver said painfully, “I just want to make a living. It’s not easy to do business these days, and the platform deducts a lot. I can’t make much money for giving you a ride.”
Li Ziyue looked at the driver's recent consumption displayed on the mobile phone screen.
[A bath center costs 4,000 yuan for foot washing]
The corner of his mouth curled up in sarcasm.
"Okay, then you can transfer me an extra thousand."
Finally arriving at his doorstep, Li Ziyue smiled and waved to the driver who gave him a thousand yuan with gritted teeth, but then he reported the driver.
Luckily, he was in the car today. How dangerous would it be if it was a girl?
The driver looked sinisterly at the gradually blurry figure of Li Ziyue through the rearview mirror.
He didn't tell Li Ziyue about the rabbit he encountered on the road.
After returning home and eating the meal Zhang Lian had left for him, Li Ziyue hurriedly took a shower. He could not resist his sleepiness and prepared to go to bed early.
The weather forecast says that it will start to drizzle at 12 o'clock tonight and turn into heavy rain at 2 o'clock in the morning. It has been cloudy and rainy in the past few days, and the temperature has dropped sharply. Citizens are advised to add more clothes and keep warm.
He forwarded the weather news to Zhang Lian and was about to turn off the TV when a special news came on. The general meaning was that a suspected serial killing case involving twin murderers had occurred in the neighboring county. The police had preliminarily identified the suspects and were on their way to arrest them.
This kind of news is seen almost every once in a while. On the surface, the police only make a preliminary confirmation, but the murderer may have already been sent to prison. Unless it is 100% certain, it will not be easily reported in the news.
Li Ziyue didn't care. He turned off the TV normally and lay down in the warm bed with a happy face.
He was half asleep when he noticed someone entering the room. Based on the pattern of the footsteps, he determined it was Zhang Lian. He quickly became sleepy again. Li Ziyue turned over and was about to fall asleep again, but the mattress next to him sank a foot.
In the darkness, Zhang Lian naturally leaned over and bit his lower lip.
Li Ziyue didn't open his eyes, and spoke with a voice full of weariness: "Zhang Lian, I'm sleepy..."
He stopped talking halfway and then frowned slightly.
"Have you been drinking?"
"Well," Zhang Lian kissed the corner of his lips, trying to evade the question, and just called him, "Brother."
Li Ziyue's sleepiness had mostly gone away. He stood up and took the initiative to kiss Zhang Lian's eyebrows, then patted him: "How much did you drink? Are you dizzy?"
“No.”
The smell of wine was very light, and it was hard to smell it unless you got close to it. He probably didn't drink too much. Despite this, Li Ziyue decided to stand up: "I'll pour you a glass of honey--"
Before he could finish his words, Zhang Lian grabbed his wrist, then turned over and pressed him under him. His right index finger slowly stroked Li Ziyue's earlobe, which was beginning to turn red. He kissed the side of Li Ziyue's neck and gave it a light bite that marked his presence.
"No." He was rarely disobedient after drinking.
Li Ziyue was helpless, but he didn't struggle and let him press down on him.
"Brother." He had just taken a shower and there was still moisture on his body. The ends of his hair were wet, and they rubbed against Li Zi, making her feel even more itchy.
Li Ziyue looked up at him.
The curtains in the room were ajar, and the clear moonlight from outside peeked in through the gap. After getting used to the darkness, Li Ziyue could roughly see Zhang Lian's expression.
Zhang Lian's deep blue eyes shone like gems at this moment, watching the ups and downs of the ocean surface.
Li Ziyue raised his hand and stroked Zhang Lian's cheek, saying softly, "You don't have to drink the water, but you'll catch a cold if you sleep with wet hair."
Zhang Lian blinked quickly and bit Li Ziyue's ear: "Can I kiss you first and then blow dry your hair?"
His tone was docile, but his actions belied his aggression.
Zhang Lian placed his left knee against Li Ziyue's genitals and held Li Ziyue's waist with one hand, preventing him from moving.
Without waiting for Li Ziyue to answer, he kissed her again.
Between the lips and teeth, an ambiguous heat surges.
"……Can."
Li Ziyue had no idea what to do with him.
Zhang Lian licked his dry lower lip lightly, seemed to laugh, and leaned over and kissed him again.
Unlike his previous gentle attempts with much ado about nothing, Zhang Lian seemed to be a little drunk and was like a wolf that had finally bared its fangs. Li Ziyue was forced deep into the pillow by him, and the air in his chest seemed to be robbed in an instant. The corner of his mouth was bitten, and a bloodstain that made his whole body hot hung on it.
His eyes were a little red, which were the physiological tears that overflowed after the pain.
Zhang Lian half-lifted him up from the bed, then pressed him against the headboard and kissed him. He put his palm on the back of Li Ziyue's head and pinched the back of his neck between his fingers to prevent him from shrinking down.
This was the first time that Li Ziyue gasped for breath after being kissed like this.
His lips were as red as blood and slightly swollen. When his fingers touched them, he could feel a layer of heat. His long and thick eyelashes were a natural pink. The tails of his eyes were slightly upturned, and because he had just been in pain, the tails had a seductive touch of polish.
"Brother." Zhang Lian kissed his Adam's apple and seduced him, "I want you to look up at me."
Li Ziyue was very smooth with Zhang Lian in these aspects. He slowly let his trembling eyelashes curl upwards, and his eyes, which were covered with a layer of blurry mist, looked at Zhang Lian quietly.
Li Ziyue's breathing paused.
Zhang Lian had never looked at him like that before.
It was so aggressive and full of passion, he did not hesitate to use such eyes to convey his most intimate desires to him.
The fingertips hidden under the quilt lifted the corner of Li Ziyue's clothes while he was dazed, and the hand naturally moved upwards to stroke him. The coolness of the fingertips collided with the heat of Li Ziyue's body, stimulating a current.
Zhang Lian's nose touched his nose, and both of them were breathing heavily. The blending of their breaths produced a fragrance that only the other party could smell.
Zhang Lian's deep blue eyes were as dark as the night, revealing a storm of impatience underneath.
Another long kiss.
Li Ziyue was so drunk that he even felt his mind was beginning to become unclear.
The latter was not kissing at all, but eating by biting.
Li Ziyue was sweating a little because of him. Just when he was about to push him away, Zhang Lian turned him over and pressed him under him.
Zhang Lian reached out his hand from behind and put it on Li Ziyue's cheek, then pushed Li Ziyue's head towards him and kissed him in this position.
Li Ziyue's heart was beating fast. He always felt that Zhang Lian was a little different tonight than before.
"Brother," he heard Zhang Lian's hoarse voice, "I like you so much, do you like me?"
Li Ziyue responded with difficulty: "...Xi...wait, don't pinch me..."
Zhang Lian held his earlobe in his mouth with the corners of his mouth slightly raised. He pressed Li Ziyue's right wrist, causing it to sink deeply into the quilt, then pressed up and kissed the back of his hand.
"What did I pinch?" He laughed. "I don't know, brother. Tell me."
How could Li Ziyue say that? He buried his head directly into the pillow and didn't intend to let Zhang Lian continue kissing him.
Zhang Lian thought thoughtfully: "When people are in the dark, their other five senses will become more sensitive."
He blew teasingly on the tip of Li Zi's ear, which was redder and almost bleeding: "So you like this."
That's not what I meant!
Li Ziyue had just turned around, but before he could say anything, Zhang Lian blocked his mouth again.
After finally giving him a few seconds to rest, Li Ziyue didn't even have time to catch his breath when he felt something pressing against him through the quilt.
Li Ziyue stiffened instantly, and his brain went blank for a long period of time, which was unusual.
"Brother." He heard Zhang Lian calling him.
The quilt became hot and damp, a sticky and ambiguous smell filled the air, and the alcohol cast a gauze over people's minds.
Zhang Lian was almost close to him, and his wine-scented kiss fell on the back of Li Ziyue's neck, kissing from the back to the front without leaving any gaps, and then licking Li Ziyue's Adam's apple.
Swirl the tip of your tongue around it.
Li Ziyue was driven crazy by him.
Zhang Lian held his earlobe in his mouth and whispered in a hoarse voice at the moment when his will was most confused.
"I want to have sex with you, is that okay?"
Li Ziyue gasped with difficulty: "...You give me...the choice to refuse?"
Zhang Lian seemed to laugh, and his hand gradually moved upwards: "Sorry, it seems not."
Although he said that, Zhang Lian did not kiss him again before Li Ziyue agreed. Instead, he kept rubbing his fingertips on his swollen and hot lips. He raised his fingertips slightly and easily pried open Li Ziyue's mouth. Then he inserted his fingertips into it. When his fingers moved slightly on the warm inside, he heard Li Ziyue's unbearable "hmm".
I agree.
Zhang Lian's deep blue eyes turned dark black.
Zhang Lian restrained Li Ziyue's wrists with one hand, pinning them upwards, and at the same time, he completely disrupted Li Ziyue's thoughts with almost seamless kisses.
"Brother," he brushed Li Ziyue's moist eyes, "you are shaking, are you afraid of me like this?"
Do you think I'm mean?
"No..." The reason for trembling is simply hard to explain.
Zhang Lian chuckled.
"Brother, can you accept this?"
“…Yes…Yes.”
Li Ziyue always indulges him.
Zhang Lian curled the corners of his mouth.
"Brother, you know what?"
"……What."
He couldn't even utter a complete sentence.
Zhang Lian moved him to a different angle so that even if he opened his eyes, he could only see Zhang Lian himself above him.
As sensitive as Li Ziyue was, he had no idea that there was an extra person in the house.
Someone was rushing towards the bedroom at a very fast speed.
He was in a daze and heard Zhang Lian's words which were tinged with strong passion and desire.
Although they were close friends, the alcohol seemed to have messed with his brain.
"You know what?" Zhang Lian's eyes darkened. He licked his lips, raised the corners of his mouth, and whispered in Li Ziyue's ear, "Actually, I wanted to have sex with you when I was very young."
Li Ziyue's body stiffened for a moment.
"I've been pretending," he put his hand down, "pretending to know nothing, pretending to be reserved and simple, pretending to be well-behaved."
At the same time, the door was suddenly opened, and a figure very similar to someone in the room stood beside the door.
"Do you know whose face I think of when I commit suicide? Do you know what I dream about the nights I sleep with you? Do you know what I do to you when you are asleep?"
He looked at the man at the door with a provocative look and bit Li Ziyue's exposed shoulder as if to assert his sovereignty in front of him.
"You don't know, Li Ziyue."
Zhang Lian at the door turned pale, and his heartbeat seemed to stop suddenly at this moment——
"I kill you."
His words revealed the purest and most intense murderous intent.
Two identical voices rang out in the bedroom. Li Ziyue was startled suddenly. He struggled to get up and saw Zhang Lian on the other side.
Time seems to stand still here.
"open……"
He was stuck in the middle of his words, and then his mouth was covered by Zhang Lian who was lying on the bed. Zhang Lian narrowed his eyes slightly and held Li Ziyue's waist and abdomen in place.
"Hello," Zhang Lian narrowed his eyes and said meaningfully, "My fake person."
"The one who is truly loved is the 'legal wife'." Zhang Lian sniffed the fragrance of Li Ziyue's hair, smiled at Zhang Lian on the other side, and said provocatively, "And you are not."
The next moment, the two of them disappeared out of thin air in front of Zhang Lian.
…
