Chapter 358: Horror Night: Survival Copy (46)
Although I lay down, I couldn’t fall asleep because my teammates hadn’t come back yet.
The only sound in the silent room was the ticking of the clock, and I waited quietly for the door to open.
The waiting time always seems so long, it feels like an eternity but it’s actually only been ten minutes.
It’s normal if they don’t come back in ten minutes. Xu Jinxiao plans to go and check if they don’t come back in half an hour.
When the clock struck half past one, there was a knock on the door.
Before Xu Jinxiao stood up, Jian Shu jumped up and headed straight for the door.
When they opened the door, it was indeed Zhao Ke and the other man.
"Come in quickly."
Jianshu pulled him in and turned on the light.
"Are you okay?"
Zhao Ke had some minor bruises on his body, and Wen Ze's clothes had a slight tear.
All those who were lying down stood up and looked carefully at the two people who came back late.
Xu Jinxiao patted the two on the shoulders and encouraged them, "Well done."
"I'll bandage you."
Jian Shu looked at Zhao Ke's wound with heartache and pulled him to sit on the sofa.
Qingyan also came in front of Wenze and took a careful look. "Well, no bandaging is needed. It's fine."
After saying that, she returned to the bed and continued to lie down, closing her beautiful eyes. "You still need to get your beauty sleep, so keep your voice down."
"good."
Everyone lay down, bandaged themselves, and soon the lights were turned off again.
The next morning, it was already the tenth day.
It was two o'clock in the afternoon when Xu Jinxiao just woke up, and Lu Qing and the others woke up earlier than him again.
Just like yesterday, Xu Jinxiao washed up and cooked with the two of them. The other three were awakened by the smell and cleaned the vents after the meal.
Time passed silently, and in the blink of an eye it was six o'clock in the afternoon.
Six players stayed in the room. After eight o'clock, the rain became fast and heavy, and the sound of the rain slapped against the windows, making people feel upset.
"Dong Dong Dong"
The long-awaited knock on the door was heard, and the players looked at each other in confusion. Who would come to see them at this time?
"Dong Dong Dong"
There was a constant knock on the door, urging them to open it.
Xu Jinxiao had no choice but to walk over and open the door. It was Lu Chuan standing outside the house.
He glanced past Xu Jinxiao and into the room. "Is Lu Qing here? I brought him some food. I haven't seen him come downstairs to eat in the past few days. Does he often go hungry?"
Xu Jinxiao blocked his sight,
"No, we go downstairs to eat every day, so our time might be off from yours."
Lu Chuan frowned and looked at him unhappily, but he took a deep breath and didn't get angry, maintaining his gentlemanly demeanor.
"Then this meal..."
"Take it back, we'll go downstairs and eat together later."
Xu Jinxiao pushed it back, "It's nothing, close the door, we're still busy."
Lu Chuan looked at him dissatisfied, but still said: "Okay."
Xu Jinxiao nodded and closed the door.
"Is it Lu Chuan?"
"Um."
The two of them didn't say anything more. Outside the window, the rain was pouring down so hard that they wondered if the ship would be submerged in the rain...
Half an hour later,
"Dong Dong Dong"
There was a knock on the door again.
Xu Jinxiao frowned. Who is coming again?
I went to open the door, and it was Lu Chuan again.
"These are earplugs for Lu Qing. I'm afraid he won't be able to sleep in such heavy rain."
Xu Jinxiao took it and said, "Thank you on behalf of Lu Qing."
"We are brothers, right?"
"Even brothers have to thank each other."
Xu Jinxiao smiled and closed the door again.
Lu Chuan took a deep breath and resisted the urge to break down the door.
Xu Jinxiao looked at the earplugs in his hand and threw them directly into the trash can. Who knows if he has recovered his memory? What if he is trying to trick his wife?
Lu Qing saw his actions and did not object, because even if he was given it, he would not use it.
It was not until nine o'clock in the evening that everyone started cooking and their mood improved after being healed by the delicious food.
As it approached twelve o'clock, the continuous heavy rain outside the window gradually weakened and soon returned to the previous drizzle.
At half past twelve, the task appeared.
The tenth task: It is raining heavily and a lot of rainwater has accumulated on the deck. Please go to the utility room on the third floor and bring a red plastic bucket to the deck to clean up the rainwater.
Rules: 1. Use only red plastic buckets for cleaning. 2. Rainwater may contain bacteria, so avoid contact with wounds. 3. Be careful not to get bitten by red fish if you see them in the water.
The bloody words appeared for a few seconds and then disappeared instantly, all thanks to Lu Qing passing the message to the others.
"Cleaning up rainwater?"
Zhao Ke went to the window and looked down. He was shocked to see that the rain on the deck was already one meter deep.
"It's a meter deep. I wonder how big the bucket is. If it's smaller, how long will it take to clean it?"
Zhao Ke turned around and complained to them.
"Is it that deep? There's no way."
Jianshu shook his head. He was only 1.7 meters tall, which was a headache.
"Don't panic, just pull me along when the time comes."
Zhao Ke noticed his worry and comforted him warmly.
Jian Shu smiled at him when he heard that.
Wen Ze stood up and walked towards the raincoat he had hung out to dry yesterday. "Put on your raincoat and rain boots, everyone, get ready to go."
Several people quickly dressed and walked out of the room together. This time they were more cautious because they all noticed the tourist's problem and did not dare to alarm others.
After successfully reaching the utility room on the third floor, Xu Jinxiao easily unlocked the door and opened it. He swept the flashlight around and saw all sorts of miscellaneous items inside.
Several people walked into the room and closed the door. Xu Jinxiao turned on the light and looked at the messy room and said, "It's too messy. Let's look for it together."
Several people searched separately and finally found six stacked plastic barrels, about 30 centimeters high, in a corner full of cardboard.
It's okay, at least it's not a super mini version of a few centimeters, otherwise they would be in tears.
Each person was given a bucket, and they walked downstairs to the deck together.
Xu Jinxiao shone his flashlight over there, and a few red thin lines quickly appeared in the dim rain water, then disappeared like lightning.
Even though the movement was so fast, Xu Jinxiao still saw it clearly. It was the red fish mentioned in the rules.
There are several in this small area, which seems to be a lot.
“Watch out for redfish, don’t let them bite you.”
Xu Jinxiao reminded a few people.
A few people opened the door, and the rain outside rushed in, but there were steps, so not much could enter.
A small red fish was rushed in and came next to Qingyan. Only then could the players see it clearly from a close distance.
The fish was red all over, with two brown curved lines on its back, and its eyes were clearly black and white, so it didn't look very scary.
The next second, the fish swam towards Qingyan's legs with its tail swung, opened its mouth wide, revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth, and bit Qingyan's legs fiercely.
It moved so fast it was almost invisible, and without any warning, and the players were startled.
"Click"
Fortunately, Wen Ze was quick-eyed and quick-handed at the critical moment, and cut the fish in half with one knife.
"It's so fast, we'll definitely get bitten if we're not careful, right?"
Jianshu said worriedly.
If they act separately, Brother Xu will definitely not be able to help him, and his situation will be very dangerous.
"Don't panic, let's gather in a small area. Rainwater from the deck will always flow over here. I'll help you deal with the fish problem from the outside."
