Chapter 8 The mental hospital made him smile for no apparent reason.
Not only the three people with the kids want to go to the Black Forest in the back mountain, but other players also want to go and explore it.
But the black forest at the back of the mountain is a forbidden area and one cannot trespass without permission. Wanting to go there is one thing, but how to do it without being noticed is another.
Every player has a bracelet on his wrist that can be used for positioning and electric shock. Once located in the back mountain, won’t he be electrocuted to death in minutes?
Everyone calmed down and considered the matter further.
Especially after seeing the tragic deaths of previous players, they dared not take risks easily.
The whole morning was spent in prayer, and soon it was time for lunch.
Zhuang Yu went to get food first, and Shen Hanxiao looked after Gu Rong.
Gu Rong took out the silver straw in her little hand again, her eyes sparkling as she searched for suitable prey in the crowd, ready to suck its blood when it was least prepared.
The cub is not picky about food, but as a little zombie cub, he has never eaten staple food. One reason is curiosity, and the other is that he wants to eat.
Once, a kind zombie aunt saw that he was cute and shared her blood with others. He covered his nose and thought it was terribly smelly.
Grandpa Ming said that the man's blood was not fresh. Gu Rong was too young and could only drink fresh blood. Otherwise, he would vomit and have diarrhea at best, or suffer from food poisoning at worst.
There are living people in front of you, and the prey is freshly killed, so it must be fresh.
Gu Rong grabbed the straw, spotted a female player sitting at the dining table with her back to him, and wanted to go over to her eagerly.
As soon as he raised his calf, Shen Hanxiao grabbed the back of his collar and fixed him in place.
Gu Rong's little body was frozen. He raised his head and looked at Shen Hanxiao with a confused face.
Shen Hanxiao had also been pricked on the head by the straw once. She squatted down in front of him and looked at the straw: "What is this?"
Gu Rong hid her hands behind her back, but Shen Hanxiao grabbed her hands and made her hand over the tools she had used in the crime.
Gu Rong pouted: "This was passed down to me by Grandpa Ming!"
"Pass it on?" Shen Hanxiao said with a smile, "It would be too exaggerated to pass it on to you. It's not a family heirloom, why would you pass it on?"
Gu Rong snorted, "But Grandpa Ming doesn't have any heirlooms. He only has this straw, and he doesn't even have it anymore."
Shen Hanxiao: "..."
This straw was passed down to Gu Rong by Grandpa Ming, who said it could penetrate a human's skull and flesh, and then suck blood directly.
Gu Rong's small baby teeth cannot bite the prey, so this straw is just right for him.
But he has never used it since Grandpa Ming passed the straw to him. This was the first time he used it after entering the game, but it wasn’t as powerful as Grandpa Ming said!
The back of the older brother's hand and the younger brother's head were both intact and not pierced at all.
This time, Gu Rong planned to try piercing other parts of his body, such as the thighs or arms, where there was more flesh and maybe he could pierce it.
Shen Hanxiao was silent for a while, then tapped his little nose: "Hey, kid, where are your parents?"
Gu Rong spread out her hands: "Mom and Dad, please don't see me!"
I looked everywhere and confirmed that it was indeed missing.
There are two living people, and we have to look for them on the spot. Where can we find them?
Alas, poor baby.
Shen Hanxiao: "Then you will live with Grandpa Ming? Is Grandpa Ming your real grandfather?"
Gu Rong tilted his little head, his face innocent and naive, and said in a baby voice: "Grandpa Ming is Grandpa Ming!"
Gu Rong met Grandpa Ming under the bridge. If Grandpa Ming hadn't taken him in, he would have been taken away by other zombies long ago.
At this time, Zhuang Yu came back from getting food and saw Gu Rong looking for something from a distance.
He asked with a smile, "What are you looking for?"
Shen Hanxiao had just accidentally touched upon the cub's sad story, when she suddenly realized that the cub might be an orphan. Just as she was about to change the subject, she saw Gu Rong raise his little fist, grasping the straw, and said solemnly, "Find prey and suck blood!"
Shen Hanxiao: “?”
Zhuang Yu: “…”
What are you looking for? What are you smoking?
[I almost cried because of my heartache, but I stopped myself. My dear, you are truly my aunt's treasure! [Reward points]]
[No, Zizi is talking about bloodsucking, right? He's not treating the players' heads like cows, right?]
[I am dying of laughter. When will I be able to stop laughing when I see a cow?]
[My dear, this is not fun to suck! ]
[Don't make a fuss. He's an NPC. What's wrong with an NPC sucking someone's blood? If it were me, I'd take the initiative to approach him and let him drink. He can drink as much as he wants!]
[Who gets my joke? Why does the kid need a straw to suck human blood? I have a picture in my mind!]
——The suspected spoiler barrage is only open to the audience——
Although Gu Rong's words were shocking, adults have a common problem, which is that they rarely take children's words seriously.
Zhuang Yu just found it funny.
Shen Hanxiao looked thoughtful, then turned around and looked at Yang Chunsheng.
Yang Chunsheng had indeed been paying attention to this side. When he saw Shen Hanxiao looking over, he immediately started lip-syncing excitedly.
Look, what did I say, that’s really a little devil!
Yang Chunsheng thought Shen Hanxiao finally believed what he said, but the next second, he saw Shen Hanxiao pick up Gu Rong's small body, toss it in the air, and lift it high up, making the little ghost giggle.
Yang Chunsheng: “…”
Stupid thing.

Everyone was worried about how to get the key and had no appetite.
Except for Gu Rong, everyone else was concentrating on eating.
Gu Rong held a bowl bigger than his face in his short hands, tilted his head back and drank the soup, finishing it all without leaving a drop.
His little belly was so full that the kid, who used to be hungry, could eat and drink his fill after entering the horror game.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but his little face, which is so white that it is almost transparent, has become a little redder.
Gu Rong patted his belly and said, "Baby, you like it here. You don't have to go hungry!"
006 said: [As long as you play the role of NPC well, the little host can eat whatever he wants.]
Gu Rong took out a shiny straw from her little hand.
006: [……]
If you have something to say, just say it nicely and don't use straws all the time.
006 said: [Little host, during the afternoon break, we will take the opportunity to go to the Black Forest in the back mountain to complete the mission.]
[We are hanged ghosts. We can transform into ghosts and scare others. Little host, do you want to practice scaring players in advance?]
Last night, the skeleton master had taught him two tricks for playing an NPC. He said to practice, so Gu Rong put on a grimace and practiced on the nearby Zhuang Yu: "Ah--"
Zhuang Yu: “?”
Suddenly acting cute?
Shen Hanxiao laughed out loud, but saw that Gu Rong stopped practicing on Zhuang Yu and moved closer to him: "Ah Wu——"
Shen Hanxiao cooperated: “…Afraid, afraid?”
Gu Rong put down his little hands that were making faces, and swung his short legs. His face lit up with joy when he was praised.
Shen Hanxiao: "..."
It made him smile for no apparent reason.
[The cubs roared, "Get out of the way!" Aa ...
[Ah ...
[Hahahahaha, what's this kid doing all of a sudden? This is so cute! !]
[This babyish sound of "Ah Wu" struck my heart! [Reward points]]
Both Zhuang Yu and Shen Hanxiao received a lot of tips. They could have lied to themselves that the audience was looking at their looks, but the content of the barrage was all about this cub, and it was not a reward based on their looks at all.
This kid's fans really have no sense of boundaries!
*
It was soon lunch time.
The nurse came over and arranged for the patients to return to their respective wards to rest.
Gu Rong returned to the ward, and as soon as the nurse left, he turned into a ghost.
The soul left the body, but the body remained on the hospital bed.
Gu Rong looked down at his slightly transparent little body, then looked at himself sleeping on the hospital bed, pointed with his little finger, and exclaimed in surprise.
The bracelet on Gu Rong's wrist while lying on the hospital bed was still light purple, but when he was in the soul state, the bracelet had turned light blue.
006 said: "Little host, we are now using two identity cards. The little host on the bed is using the [Little Mental Patient] identity card, and the soul is using the [Hanged Imp] identity card. We are now the Hanged Imps, and can pass directly through the door panel."
Gu Rong nodded. Seeing that she was not covered with a quilt on the bed, she knew to pull the quilt over her body. After covering herself, she patted it with her little hands.
006: [……]
006: [Don't worry, little host, I'll be back once I complete the mission.]
Gu Rong: [Yes!]
Gu Rong ran to the door, but before he could even get through, a long tongue hung down from the ceiling.
Gu Rong looked up and saw Uncle Long Tongue hanging upside down from the ceiling. He immediately smiled widely and greeted him, "Uncle Long Tongue!"
"Bang", the long-tongued ghost fell directly from the ceiling.
Gu Rong bent down to check on the long-tongued ghost, and asked in a concerned voice, "Uncle Long-tongued, are you hurt?"
The faceless ghost walked in from the aperture on the adjacent wall, crossed his arms, and sneered, "Don't worry, it won't die. It's just too lazy to climb down, so it didn't smash down to make it easier and quicker."
Gu Rong, the master of water-control, was equally enthusiastic when he saw the faceless ghost: "Brother Wu-Face!"
Even though the faceless ghost has no face, you can still feel that he is smiling and is very happy.
The skeleton ghost grew out of the ground, first extending a piece of white finger bone, then the arm broke through the ground, and then the entire skeleton emerged from the ground.
The skeleton ghost moved its bones, making a crackling sound: "And you, Uncle Skeleton!"
Gu Rong was very respectful and, despite being so young, he was very flattering: "Uncle Skeleton!"
The three NPCs laughed loudly with their hands on their hips, glanced at Gu Rong lying on the hospital bed, and then looked at Gu Rong who was in ghost state.
"You little brat, why don't you take a good nap during your lunch break to grow taller? What are you going to do?"
The skeleton ghost nodded his little back hair and said.
Being hit on the forehead by a finger bone that could pierce a human skull, Gu Rong showed no fear at all. She explained in a tender voice, "Zizi, go to the Black Forest in the back mountain and be the devil's little follower."
“…”
The three NPCs' expressions changed drastically and they looked at each other.
The long-tongued ghost was so tongue-tied: "Being a devil, devil, devil... the devil's little follower? You're going to die!"
The faceless ghost lowered his arms, saying, "You little idiot, you're not even enough for an afternoon tea snack."
The skeleton ghost snapped off one of his arms and handed it to Gu Rong: "Use it for self-defense. If all else fails, you can also stab yourself."
“…”
Gu Rong struggled to hold onto a white skeleton that was almost as long as him. After just two steps, his small body lost its balance and he fell to the side, staggering.
The faceless ghost supported the cub in time and threw the bones to the skeleton ghost again.
The skeleton ghost reattached the arm with a "click".
Seeing that Gu Rong was so weak that he couldn't even hold his arms, the three NPCs decided to escort the little Rong to the black forest in the back mountain.
At critical moments, they can take turns serving as cannon fodder.
