Is Chapter 68 really that bad?
Jiang Liyue slept soundly without the paper figures making any noise.
But when she woke up and recalled the familiar sticky feeling that had vaguely appeared last night, she suddenly realized something.
Jiang Liyue looked around; the red candles had burned out.
There were no signs that anyone else had slept next to the bed.
Or was it just her imagination?
Jiang Liyue didn't believe that illusions could occur in the dungeon.
She preferred to believe that someone had sneaked into her room last night; after all, he was already quite adept at this kind of thing since the very first instance.
Even without memory, they would probably know the way very well.
Jiang Liyue was actually unsure whether Pei Ji and Zhou Yulin would continue to appear in this instance.
She didn't know what kind of being the other was, but she was able to find her precisely in the dungeon last time.
Maybe it will only happen once.
But when Jiang Liyue woke up this morning and that familiar feeling returned, she knew that he must have come looking for her again.
I just don't know why I didn't appear in front of her?
Just as Jiang Liyue was lying on the bed, hugging her blanket and deep in thought, there was a knock at the door.
"Yueyue, are you there?" Wang Cuifen's voice came from outside the door.
Jiang Liyue put on her coat before opening the door, her usual smile on her face: "Good morning, sister."
A strange, excited light shone in Wang Cuifen's eyes: "You, you still..."
Before she could finish speaking, she stopped herself and handed her the bamboo basket she was carrying: "Are you hungry? Have some breakfast."
Jiang Liyue's eyes lit up immediately: "Thank you, sister!"
As she ate breakfast, Wang Cuifen watched her with great satisfaction.
On the way to the ancestral hall, Wang Cuifen was particularly uneasy. She was not really willing to agree to Liu Yueshan's idea in the first place.
Although she had only just met Jiang Liyue, she still felt a little reluctant to send such a cute girl to her death.
The god they worshipped had not accepted human offerings for a long time; all the humans who had been offered sacrifices before had died tragically overnight.
For a long time afterward, they dared not offer any more tributes, lest they offend Him.
But who knows what Liu Yueshan was thinking last night, insisting on sending Jiang Liyue to her death.
Of course, Wang Cuifen did have some affection for the girl who sweetly called her "sister," but she wouldn't break the village rules for her sake.
Therefore, she did not stop Liu Yueshan after he made the suggestion.
At most, I feel a little regretful.
Wang Cuifen brought breakfast, clinging to a sliver of hope, but to her surprise, Jiang Liyue was actually alive!
Thinking of this, she tentatively asked, "Yueyue, did you hear anything last night?"
Jiang Liyue knew that Wang Cuifen and the others had asked her to stay in the ancestral hall last night, so they must be hiding something.
"No, I just heard a little bit of a rumor." Jiang Liyue shook her head innocently.
The village is called Paper Doll Village, so of course she wouldn't admit that she tore apart a paper doll with her bare hands in front of all the paper dolls.
It also intimidated the other paper figures.
After all, she was just a frail little girl.
As for what happened to that person, Jiang Liyue would never say anything, as she herself didn't even know what was going on.
"Weren't there any other sounds? And didn't you encounter any other strange things?" Wang Cuifen asked, somewhat disbelievingly.
Jiang Liyue shook her head innocently: "No, I slept very well last night."
She then smiled gratefully and said, "I also want to thank you for preparing such a nice room for me."
Seeing that the expression on her face didn't seem fake, Wang Cuifen couldn't help but begin to doubt her earlier guess.
Could it be that the master didn't actually accept Yueyue, but was simply in a deep sleep and didn't realize her existence?
But without adult protection, how could a seemingly innocent and beautiful girl like Jiang Liyue have escaped those things at night?
Because she's a heavy sleeper?
Wang Cuifen was completely baffled.
Jiang Liyue smiled with satisfaction in her heart.
I'm sorry, she's a professional actress, of course she couldn't spot the flaws in her expression.
Jiang Liyue continued to eat her breakfast in a relaxed manner, letting Wang Cuifen ponder various possibilities in her mind.
After breakfast, Jiang Liyue smiled and interrupted her, "Sister, I've passed our village's test. Can I go for a walk around the village today?"
Wang Cuifen snapped out of her daze and immediately nodded: "Of course."
She put the bowls and chopsticks back into the basket, and out of guilt for leaving Jiang Liyue in the ancestral hall last night, she became even more enthusiastic.
"You can wander around the village as you like."
Regardless, Jiang Liyue spent a night in the ancestral hall, which means she has been recognized by the adults and can now be considered a distinguished guest of the entire Paper Doll Village.
“You can stay here and participate in the paper offering ceremony three days from now,” Wang Cuifen warmly invited.
One of the tasks was to find out the truth about the paper offering day, so Jiang Liyue naturally wouldn't refuse.
Wang Cuifen and Jiang Liyue went out together, and she talked to her about other things: "By the way, most of the other people in your car last night have also woken up."
"There are more than a dozen injured people, but they are not seriously injured. They are also staying to participate in this paper memorial day. I wonder if any of your friends or family members are among them."
"I'm traveling alone, and I don't know any of them." Jiang Liyue hadn't actually thought about the other people on the bus at all.
It wasn't that she was heartless; it was just that the car was full of strangers who had just entered the instance.
She's not the kind of person with compassion; other people's lives and deaths are of little concern to her.
Jiang Liyue and Wang Cuifen walked out while talking. When they got to the courtyard, Wang Cuifen noticed the scattered fragments of paper figures in the center of the courtyard.
When she came in, she was so worried about Jiang Liyue's safety that she didn't notice anything amiss.
Wang Cuifen asked with a strange expression, "How did this paper figure get damaged?"
"I don't know, it looks like it was torn on purpose." Jiang Liyue frowned, looking like she knew nothing.
"Unfortunately, I slept too soundly last night and didn't hear anything. I wonder who was so mean!"
Anyway, it has nothing to do with her.
To reiterate, she was just an innocent, weak, and pitiful little girl.
