Chapter 362: The Terrifying Livestream Room (17)
Turning around and looking at the riverbed in the distance, Wen Wan swam ashore without any hesitation, and was then pulled up by Chen Lin and Qi Qiaoqiao on the bank.
Qi Qiaoqiao's face still showed lingering fear. "Goddess, you scared me to death! I saw such a huge whirlpool, I thought you wouldn't be able to climb out, and I would definitely cry myself to death."
"I'm out safely, let's leave here first."
Wen Wan quickly said, fearing that she might encounter something even more terrifying, and Chen Lin agreed. So the three of them returned to their residence. Wen Wan took off her wet wedding dress and looked at her palms. The wounds on her palms had already healed.
But that's what's even more frightening.
"System, is that the river god in that coffin?"
System: [It should be, and it's very likely the big boss of this live stream. And it seems you're in trouble.]
Wen Yan: "..."
"Isn't this Xiao Huan? She asked me to bring out her remains. What could I do?"
She changed into dry clothes and then took out the human bones wrapped in her wedding dress. Because of Xiao Huan's remains, Wen Wan gained 300 points. If she could resolve Xiao Huan's situation, she could leave safely.
She had to speed things up; after all, the mastermind behind it all might be watching her from the bottom of a coffin, and the later it got, the more dangerous it would be.
Everyone was waiting when we went out.
Wen Wan placed the remains, wrapped in a red wedding dress, on the table.
Chen Zijie: "What is this?"
"Xiao Huan's remains."
Chen Zijie: "!!!"
The newcomers were a little scared, but the older ones were overjoyed. Chen Lin looked at Wen Wan and said, "I didn't expect you to bring this out under such dangerous circumstances."
Wen Wan: "I almost couldn't get out, but this should be useful."
"So, Goddess, you really saw... Xiao Huan?"
Wen Wan nodded. "She's at the bottom of the river and didn't attack me first, so she's a good NPC."
Chen Zijie immediately denied it, saying, "Impossible."
"Players have explored the riverbed before, but no one came out; they all died. It must have been Xiao Huan who killed them. How could she be harmless?"
Wen Wan: "Maybe it's not her. There's a coffin at the bottom of the river."
"What?"
"You didn't go down there to see it, did you? That coffin was huge and very eerie. There must be a big boss inside. I almost died in there too."
Qi Qiaoqiao quickly said, "Yes, it was a huge whirlpool, it scared me to death."
Chen Lin: "If what Chen Yao said is true, then we have been looking for the wrong breakthrough point all along. We have been looking for problems among the villagers, but we have not seen the big boss. Xiao Huan may have become a water ghost because of him, so he did all of this."
“But we can’t mess with him,” Chen Zijie said. “No one can survive the big boss’s clutches. He’s the most terrifying presence in the horror livestream room, and no one can afford to mess with him.”
Wen Yan: "..."
She's just so lucky; she always manages to bump into me. It's like she has a better constitution than winning the lottery.
"Then what use are these remains? Are we supposed to bury Xiao Huan's remains?"
Wen Yan: "..."
System: [Summoning is permitted.]
"Summoning is permitted."
Qi Qiaoqiao: "Summon what?"
"Xiao Huan".
Qi Qiaoqiao: "What? We're going to summon a ghost? She's pitiful, but she's dangerous! Let's not do that, shall we?"
"Besides, we don't know how to summon it yet, so let's not rush, we still have time."
Afterwards, everyone discussed some information they had gathered during the day.
Is there any secret hidden in the peach grove?
The three players who went to the peach grove all shook their heads.
Xue Lin: "We didn't find anything. The peach blossom grove was beautiful, but also very ordinary."
"However, I'll take my tools and search carefully tomorrow. I still feel that the peach blossom forest is not as simple as it seems."
Wen Wan nodded.
At this time, the villagers came to deliver breakfast. It was almost dawn. Wen Wan found that these NPCs sometimes looked very much like real people, even confusing people, but sometimes they made people feel that they were just NPCs. For example, now, even though there were still bones on the table, the villagers acted as if they couldn't see them.
After breakfast, everyone went about their own business, while Chen Lin and Qi Qiaoqiao took a nap since they hadn't slept all night. Wen Wan didn't want to sleep, so she started thinking.
Do you want to summon Little Ring?
Although I think Xiao Huan is a good NPC, there's always a chance of something going wrong.
However, thinking that if she didn't leave soon, things would get even more complicated, Wen Wan still decided to take the risk. Anyway, the system said that Xiao Huan couldn't kill her. Without further ado, Wen Wan went to an open space.
Then they laid down Xiao Huan's remains.
Then he took out a dagger and said, "System, remember to give me pain relief, or I'm quitting."
System: [You're a zombie hostage, so you don't feel pain.]
Wen Yan: "..."
Wen Wan began to bleed the corpse. The blood dripped onto the bones and emitted a red light. Then, in broad daylight, Wen Wan suddenly felt a chill down her back.
Is this a ghost?
Wen Wan was a little timid. "Xiao Huan? Is that you?"
No one appeared. "Xiao Huan? Xiao Huan, is that you?"
However, no one appeared. Wen Wan then took the remains back to her room and went to the riverbank. She made sure to cover her face. Wen Wan discovered that the villagers by the river had an excessive amount of [something] today.
The villagers were gathered in large circles, along with Taoist priests performing rituals and village shamans.
Wen Wan went to ask, and sure enough, it was because of what she had done last night.
These people prayed for the river god to appear and bestow blessings, so that ghosts and monsters would not bring calamity upon the village.
It has to be said, this is truly a pathetic display of superstition.
At that moment, the chill suddenly intensified. Before the system could speak, Wen Wan lost consciousness and found herself running towards the river, out of her control. To everyone's astonishment, she removed her mask and jumped into the river amidst their horrified gazes.
"Xiao Huan!!!"
Wen Wan: "Holy crap, what's going on?"
Chen Zijie watched as his body swam towards the coffin, and Wen Wan went numb.
What's going on with this little ring? I summoned it myself, only to have it cause me trouble. Was that really the right thing to do? I took her remains out, only to end up pushing myself into a fire pit.
When they reached the coffin, Wen Wan saw Xiao Huan control her body, open the coffin lid, and then... lie down inside.
Once I lay down, I relinquished control of my body.
Wen Yan: "..."
"System, I'm not going back."
What am I going back for? I'll be facing a nightmare right away, and this is inside a coffin! What a terrifying experience! However, Wen Wan couldn't control herself. After Xiao Huan left her body, she regained control of her body and immediately prepared to crawl away. She didn't even dare to look at the things inside the coffin. But then a hand grabbed her waist.
