Chapter 136 Summoning Ceremony
The situation at the scene was easy to understand. The muscled man was afraid Lin Xi would attack him first, and also worried she would do something like not killing anyone tonight just to keep the game going. So he struck first. He killed everyone before the agreed 1:00 AM. That way, when the vote came tomorrow, only the two wolves and the model would be left. Victory in the game was a sure thing.
Empiricism is deadly.
It also kills ghosts.
Lin Xi pondered this as she suddenly leaped to her feet, facing the muscular man. Her dance was quite lively, similar to the summoning ritual at the funeral home. She winked at the muscular man and made a giant heart on her left chest.
In the eyes of the muscular man, Lin Xi is really crazy, with a kind of beauty that makes people confused and a little crazy.
Just when he wanted to ask Lin Xi if her brain was okay, Shen Sang Ning suddenly emerged from Lin Xi's loving heart. Lin Xi's special summoning ritual could not summon anyone except Shen Sang Ning.
The muscular man opened his eyes wide: "Fuck!"
He had never expected that this pair of crazy women had developed a special joint skill, which was invented in their previous school. It was derived from "Romeo and Juliet", but it looked more like "Pretty Cure".
In the end, with the combined skills of the two, the muscular man was turned into little black beads.
Lin Xi was quite excited, but Chen Sang Ning silently picked up the black beads and looked down at her toes. She might have been wondering if she could dig out a three-bedroom apartment with just her toes. The more memories she recovered, the closer Chen Sang Ning became to her life before death, and so did her worldview. At the very least, performing her so-called combo skills with Lin Xi was quite embarrassing.
"I've wanted to do this for a long time! It's really cool!"
Lin Xi came over and pulled Shen Sang Ning to go back to the room. But Shen Sang Ning pouted and complained quietly: "Lin Xi, you are too childish! Everyone saw you doing something like this!"
"But Ningning, you promised me. And this might seem childish for elementary school students, but it's just right for me! Plus, it stretches my muscles and relieves stress. What a great thing!"
The key is that the audience can also enjoy watching it.
[I am dying of laughter. Ning Ning probably wants to travel back in time and wake up the idiot who agreed to perform a combined skill with Lin Xi! ]
I admit it's a bit awkward, but it's pretty nice to see two pretty girls dancing this.
[I suggest adding "I will destroy you on behalf of the moon" next time. ]

[Your "Sailor Moon" is a bg anime, our Ningning and Xijie are 姛, so we recommend dancing to "Puella Magi Madoka Magica"! ]
Actually, Lin Xi could have finished everything tonight, but she wanted to stay with Shen Sang Ning, so she took Shen Sang Ning back to the room. Otherwise, she would have gone downstairs to cause trouble for the stone statue. By now, the secret of the stone statue had already surfaced. Some games that progressed faster had already ended yesterday.
As everyone suspected, there was indeed a ghost inside the statue. This dungeon was indeed a game of words. Aside from Lin Xi, everyone else was a villager. We finally persevered to the end, with only two or three villagers left, including me. We had cast all the wolves, but we didn't win the game. Even though I had the official answer, I still couldn't clear it.
The ghost in the stone statue emerged, revealing another layer of the game. Only by killing "humans" or "ghosts" can you win. Many anchors do not have the ability like Lin Xi, and they soon died at the hands of the surviving ghosts.
Of course, there are also some anchors who have special skills. In the end, there is only one ghost left except themselves, and they are killed directly by the gargoyle.
To the surprise of the officials, Wang Xue, Du Kang, and Wei Ziqi actually persevered and intentionally controlled the game's progress, even progressing a bit slower than Lin Xi's. After all, if two people died tonight, only one would remain tomorrow. In the dead of night, Wang Xue would even occasionally chatter to herself and "interact" with the comments due to the overwhelming pressure.
"I'm not particularly smart, but don't I still have one SC exam left? This time I should be with Lin Xi..." She was very scared when she said this, her lips trembling, but her eyes were still full of hope: "Lin Xi will definitely pass the exam. When the time comes, China will definitely send me an SC exam, and I just need to copy the answers."
"I just divorced my husband and I still have a lot of good life ahead of me. I will try my best to live it."
The next morning, Lin Xi woke up, brushed her teeth, washed her face, and went downstairs with Shen Sangning. She busied herself in the kitchen for a while, making spaghetti with meat sauce, which she and Shen Sangning ate together. Shen Sangning ate quickly, finishing her meal before the model came down. The moment the model came down, Shen Sangning slipped back into Lin Xi's body.
The model came downstairs and saw two plates of pasta on the dining table. She subconsciously asked, "Who is the remaining person?"
"No one's coming down, except me and you."
"You are lying," the model blurted out: "There is
"The two plates and cutlery are a set, so how could it be just you? And the wolf killed one person last night, so there should be three left now." The model's expression froze as he spoke.
She simply pulled out a chair and sat opposite Lin Xi where Shen Sangning originally sat.
Seeing her sit down like that, Lin Xi thought Chen Sangning would be furious. Chen Sangning had always been a bit jealous, and Lin Xi was a bit carefree in her daily life. Perhaps because she was once an athlete, she was more open to socializing. She didn't have many true friends, but she had a lot of drinking buddies. In college, she took basketball as an elective physical education class, and she wouldn't help out a classmate when she saw him. Chen Sangning was jealous.
Her jealousy was reserved and she would not show it on purpose. If Lin Xi had not had strong empathy and knew Shen Sangning well enough, she would not have noticed that she was jealous.
After becoming a ghost, Shen Sangning completely let herself go. If she felt jealous, she would express it without hiding it. She was jealous of everyone, a walking jealous person. Now that she saw someone else sitting in the same seat where she and Lin Xi had just been chatting and laughing, it would be strange if she didn't get jealous.
In order to prevent the smell of jealousy from leaking out of her body, Lin Xi sat back a little, leaning her back against the chair.

She hadn't noticed Lin Xi's behavior, but instead looked at her anxiously, wondering who would come down in the end. Would it be the muscled man? Or that man whose presence had always been so slight?
Regardless of who it was, the best outcome was that one of the other party and Lin Xi was a ghost. In that case, as a villager, she still had a chance of survival. If both Lin Xi and the one who hadn't come down were ghosts, then she had no chance of survival at all. In other words, she could only survive until midnight tonight.
The model was terrified, yet she managed to maintain a composed expression. Her acting wasn't great, just as bad as Lin Xi's. She was a model, not an actress. There was no precedent for cross-industry collaborations in the ghost world, so she had no acting skills at all.
"Are you human?"
The model was extremely nervous, so she asked such a question. Look at the way she asked, she was almost speaking without thinking.
Lin Xi nodded: "Of course I am a human."
The model was actually relieved to hear her decisive answer. A small smile appeared on her face, but before it fully showed, she saw Lin Xi move. She leaned sideways, took out a card from her pocket, and placed it on the table in front of her.
Two servings of pasta and cutlery were placed on the table. The model's portion had been completely eaten, leaving only some soup. However, the pasta in front of Lin Xi still had some left. The pasta, smothered in tomato sauce and meat sauce, had become somewhat sticky from sitting for a while, but the plate underneath was spotless, and even the tablecloth was pristine white.
Lin Xi's hand fell to the tablecloth, where she placed the ID card. As she slowly removed her hand, the model saw a completely different card. The demon's card was very different from the villagers'. Even though the pattern on the cursive font couldn't be clearly seen due to the perspective, the distorted background and sinister font made it clear that it was definitely not a good card.
"Are you... a ghost?"
"It's a demon." Lin Xi corrected: "But only in this game. I'm a human, and you're the ghost." Lin Xi stood up. The chair slid backwards because she stood up suddenly, and the legs of the chair made a harsh sound as they rubbed against the ground.
However, the model opposite saw her suddenly stand up, and the movement was even louder than hers. Unlike Lin Xi's chair which just slid backwards, the model's chair fell directly to the ground with a loud "bang".
"what you up to?!"
Lin Xi put on an unfriendly smile. "Relax, I just said that there are only two of us left. I don't plan to end this game for the time being, so I won't attack you before 12 o'clock tonight."
In the eyes of the model, her smile was scarier than the devil's. For a moment, the model couldn't tell who was the evil ghost.
"It's your last day, so just enjoy it. I'm going to stay in my room for a while. If you don't want to die soon, don't come to see me."
Of course, the model wouldn't be so obedient. She couldn't remain calm knowing she was going to die after playing the game this far. Ghosts here don't live long, having been a ghost for only three years, and she didn't want to disappear just yet.
So the model stretched out her hand towards Lin Xi. She wanted to kill this human being.
But just as the model stretched out his hand, it was cut off by an invisible force. A look of astonishment flashed across the model's eyes, and his hand fell to the ground, turning into a ball of black mist and disappearing into the air. Lin Xi didn't even turn his head, but just waved his hand:
"You should also stay well for the last ten or so hours."
She didn't want to look back, as it would be a waste of time. Wouldn't it be nice if she could spend time dealing with the model and go back to the room to spend some time alone with her wife?
The model sat on the floor, counting the last few hours of her life. The clock in the living room on the first floor was ticking, indicating that time was passing by.
