151 Illusion Cruise 4
◎Deep memories◎
“Hurry up and save them!”
"Stop the bleeding!" Xiao Wu yelled, "Stop the bleeding for him!"
The cabin suddenly became chaotic. Zhou Jiayi took out a roll of bandage from his backpack and handed it to Xiaowu. Xiaowu rushed forward, tore off the cloth on Fourth Brother's arm and began to give emergency rescue. After wrapping countless rounds of bandages, Xiaowu sat on the ground exhausted, his heart felt like it was about to jump out of his throat.
Fourth Brother's lower body was stained red by the spurting blood. The scene was extremely bloody. When he was bandaged, he bit his lips tightly without making a sound, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat.
The accident happened in an instant. No one knew what happened, not even the fourth brother himself. Even his broken left arm disappeared.
Fear filled the entire cabin.
"Shangguan Fan is back..." Xiao Wu murmured as he sat on the deck, "He must be back, and he's among us."
Xia Qing was dumbfounded. She stammered, "Isn't Shangguan Fan outside? Fourth brother threw him out himself."
"So Fourth Brother lost an arm. Is he taking revenge on Fourth Brother?" Sang Mian's face was not looking good. "Xiao Qing, your identity and skill are healing. Help him heal first."
Xia Qing woke up as if from a dream, and immediately stepped forward and used his identity skills.
Two minutes later, the fourth brother's expression finally looked better. "Thank you."
"This is the only way." Xia Qing said, "There is no way to make your arm grow back, but the bleeding has stopped, and your life is not in danger for the time being."
"It's good enough to be alive." The fourth brother said weakly: "If it weren't for you, I might not have been able to hold on."
Xiao Wu propped himself up and looked at his fourth brother, saying seriously, "You were secretly harmed by someone, Shangguan Fan?"
The fourth brother shook his head, and a blank expression appeared on the honest middle-aged man's face: "I don't know, I didn't see anything, and when I reacted, my arm was gone."
Everyone gasped and looked at each other, seeing shock in each other's eyes.
Sang Mian felt his scalp tingling. It was definitely not something a player could do to tear off a human's arm in an instant... and he did it quietly without anyone noticing.
The difficulty of this instance was beyond her expectations. Shangguan Fan's Gui Qi value was 99 points, and he could easily kill any of them, or one of them had been replaced by Shangguan Fan...
Sang Mian paced back and forth in annoyance. She really wanted to take out her Green Dragon Crescent Blade and slash everyone with it. Those who bleed are players, and those who don’t bleed are monsters. She could find out the monsters simply and rudely.
After thinking about it, she gave up. What if Shangguan Fan became desperate? If she killed him, it would be more trouble than gain.
Wait! She seemed to have missed something! Sang Mian's eyes lit up, she grabbed Xiao Qing's arms and asked nervously: "Did you scream when Fourth Brother got into trouble? Why did you scream?"
After being reminded, Xia Qing was in a trance. She took two steps back in fear and kept a long distance from everyone: "If you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten... Didn't you notice..."
Sang Mian: "What did you find?"
Xia Qing was terrified. She said with difficulty: "When the light broke, there were... eight people in the cabin!"
Eight people! Is Shangguan Fan really back?
Sang Mian immediately looked towards the cabin. There were her fourth brother, fifth sister, Zhou Jiayi, Zhou Jianyi, Bai Tang, Xia Qing, and her. There were only seven of them! Could it be that her vision was controlled by a strange game? Could she not see the extra person?
"You are not kidding!" Zhou Jianyi asked in surprise, "You mean Shangguan Fan appeared for a moment and then disappeared into the cabin? And he hurt Fourth Brother the second he appeared?"
"No..." Xia Qing didn't know how to express it, "There is one more person among us. I don't know if it is Shangguan Fan, I only know that there is one more person."
The concepts she expressed were very vague. Sang Mian's brain was working rapidly. It was known that the evil spirit-level copies would tamper with the player's memory, visually or fabricate the player's identity out of thin air. Therefore, there was only one reason why Xiaoqing could not remember clearly, and that was that the strange person transformed into an appearance that she was familiar with, and rationalized his own existence in the copy, causing Xiaoqing's mind to be deceived by the sleight of hand.
But what exactly has the weirdness been rationalized into?
Sang Mian put her hands in her pockets. She seemed to understand, but also understood nothing.
I don't know when the lights stopped flickering, and the cabin was bright again.
Bai Tang suddenly asked: "How long have we been sailing?"
Xia Qing glanced at his watch and said, "One hour. We just need to hold on for another hour."
"We must find Weird within an hour." Xiao Wu recovered from her exhausted state and said sternly, "In the Evil Spirit-level dungeon, Weird's only goal is to kill all players. If we can't solve Weird within an hour, we will all die on the cruise ship."
The fourth brother's lips were pale. He glanced at everyone warily and said, "The weird one might be one of us. Although everyone has told their own stories, no one knows whether they are true or false. I suggest that everyone tell a story that impressed them deeply and have it verified by a familiar friend."
His suggestion was very good. The seven people in this copy happened to know each other. If they made up lies, they would definitely be discovered.
"Let me do the first one. I'm afraid if I don't say anything, I won't have the energy to think later." The fourth brother laughed bitterly, "The one that impressed me the most was the dungeon about the Forest of Time. There were a total of ten players. The task was to kill one player every day and escape from the forest. You must think it's nothing at first, but this dungeon is really weird."
"After a fierce ideological struggle, we drew lots to choose the player to die. I saw with my own eyes that player hanged on a tree. Later, the rest of the players went to look for an exit. In the afternoon, we found a small wooden house. Guess what happened?"
Zhou Jianyi: "What did you see?"
The fourth brother raised his eyes and said something horrifying: "I saw the dead players resurrected."
Xia Qing opened his mouth wide: "Impossible! How can a dead player be resurrected?!"
"I know about this. I'll fill in the ending of the story as my own confession." Xiao Wu took over the conversation: "Because the time in the Forest of Time dungeon is messed up, the dead player is not a player from our timeline, he is from another timeline. The cabin is the intersection of time, so we see that the player was teleported from another timeline by the weird game."
Xia Qing covered her head: "Wait, I'm a little confused!"
"Don't think of it scientifically. You can think of it as a weird game version of a parallel universe." Xiao Wu laughed at himself. "The exit of the forest is in the cabin. Players need to kill another player in the cabin to open the time tunnel before they can escape from the forest. We stayed in the forest for twelve days before we escaped."
"That's right." The fourth brother looked straight at Xiaowu, "Then do you know who the player who committed suicide in the cabin was?"
Xiao Wu raised his eyebrows and a meaningful smile appeared on his lips: "Of course I know, that player is me..."
The fourth brother lowered his head. He was sure that Xiaowu was not weird.
"Huh? Why are you looking at me?" Xiao Wu realized that everyone was staring at her after she finished speaking. She subconsciously touched her face and asked, "Is there something on my face?"
"You...your hair..."
When Xiaowu finished speaking, everyone saw an incredible scene. A strand of Xiaowu's hair suddenly broke off, slipped out of her baseball cap and fell onto her shoulders.
“…”
This is so abnormal! Who is losing a strand of hair?
Sang Mian rushed forward and pushed Xiao Wu away... There was nothing behind her, and no one cut her hair strangely.
She scratched her hair in annoyance. What on earth was going on? Could it be that he was invisible? I knew the difficulty would increase, but I didn’t expect it to be this difficult!
Bai Tang recounted what had just happened in a clear tone, and Xiao Wu was furious on the spot, "Fuck! How dare he cut my hair! Don't let me catch him, or I'll strip him naked!"
Sang Mian waved his fist behind her: "That's right! What kind of man are you if you only know how to hide? Come out if you have the guts!"
The atmosphere was much more relaxed after the two of them were talking at the same time.
"Sisters, keep your eyes open. Don't let that thing get a chance." Xiao Wu put his hands on his hips and shouted, "From now on, everyone keep an eye on the person in the seat in front of you. Shout out if you notice anything unusual."
The person in front of Sang Mian was Xiao Wu. She nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "Okay, sister!"
"It's my turn!" Zhou Jianyi was very excited. "The dungeon that impressed me the most must be the third weird hospital. At that time, the player was an intern in the hospital and lived in a dark basement. When I was at work, those healthy weirdos came to pick on me. These are not the main points. The main point is that I met a special player."
"Oh my god! You would never have thought! A player became the dean! And the vice-dean is her friend! I was so excited at the time! I have never heard of a player becoming a dean in my entire life."
At this point everyone knew who he was talking about. Sang Mian blushed at the compliment, "Be low-key. I don't like to show off."
Bai Tang resonated with what Zhou Jianyi said, and she added: "I know this! The reason why Mianmian became the dean is that she reported the former dean of the Third Weird Hospital. The former dean used his position to extract the Weird Qi value, and was finally arrested by the Weird Management Bureau."
Xia Qing clicked his tongue twice: "Then he escaped from prison to avenge Sister Sang. He is already an adult but he has no self-awareness at all. Is my Sister Sang a woman he can avenge? She is now imprisoned in the Weird Theater. If nothing unexpected happens, she will never be able to get out."
After listening to the three people's wonderful stories, Xiaowu suddenly felt a little sorry for the former dean. The empty-nest old man was not able to enjoy his old age, and he had to offend that little girl.
Only Zhou Jiayi and Sang Mian were left speechless.
"Ahem, let me add some details about the Weird Theater." Zhou Jiayi said, "It was not only the former dean who took revenge on President Sang, but also Lou Cangyue and the supervisor. Of course, they all failed. Under the instigation of President Sang, they eventually became Xishi's boyfriend, father and son, and were trapped in the Weird Theater forever."
"Zhou Jiayi, you are going too far. This is slander! This is slander!" Sang Mian slammed the table angrily: "What instigation! I am clearly a witness to their happy family! Without me, there would be no happy family!"
Xiao Wu's mouth twitched: "Are you sure they are willing?"
Sang Mian was full of energy: "Women need to know how to rely on themselves! Feelings can be cultivated, understand?"
"..." Xiao Wu was speechless and even felt that it made some sense.
Sang Mian was the only one who didn't say anything. She cleared her throat and smiled at everyone, "The dungeon that impressed me the most was the ship dungeon. In this dungeon, I met the male guest of my dreams."
Xia Qing: “!”
