Chapter 163 The price has increased
Ghosts can also be afraid, Lin Xi knows this very well.
They were afraid of Shen Sangning. Perhaps they knew about her previous livestream. In the previous Werewolf dungeon, Lily clearly knew everything that had happened since Lin Xi's livestream. She had built a dungeon targeting Lin Xi based on the intelligence she had gathered from the livestream.
I don't know where it got this information from, but it just knew. So, isn't it reasonable to suspect that these ghosts before me also know about my situation? They also know... about Shen Sangning's situation, and are aware of her power?
While Lin Xi was still thinking, Chen Sheng suddenly spoke, interrupting Lin Xi's thoughts and pulling the frightened doctor ghosts back to the right path: "This is just a rumor among patients. There are no ghosts in this world." This rule is almost a golden rule in the world of ghost stories. Lin Xi didn't know why they pretended to be humans, but all ghosts did this, and there must be a reason for it.
"There are no ghosts in this world. It seems that Dr. Chen is an atheist. I am different from other patients. We believe in the existence of ghosts."
Lin Xi laughed wildly and said, "Maybe those patients or nurses who disappeared were taken away by ghosts."
At this point, Doctor Chen Sheng frowned. He heard the threat in Lin Xi's words. She clearly meant that she would let Shen Sang Ning continue to eat ghosts. Lin Xi actually had some guesses about this copy. According to Cai Hua's theory, each copy should have a structurer. It used its own rules as a starting point to structure this copy and capture the anchors to survive.
Lin Xi hadn't been idle these days. A brain that doesn't work for too long will rust. With Chen Sangning's assistance, she came to a conclusion: this dungeon's architect might actually be the hospital itself. Inhuman architects aren't uncommon. The architects for the first level, "Home Sweet Home," and the second, "Working to Survive," didn't have human forms. One was a "home," and the other a bulletin board. So, it made sense that this time's architect was the hospital itself.
A home needs someone to live in it, and it needs happiness, which is very important. If Lin Xi and Shen Sang Ning are not at home for a long time, it will even take the initiative to think about changing the residents. Although I have never directly touched the notice board, I am so enthusiastic to let those job positions post recruitment information on me, so I think it is also related to work.
The hospital's words are easier to understand. It needs patients and doctors.
Lin Xi didn’t know what he had obtained, but there was no doubt that the hospital had its own thoughts, and maybe it was seeing everything he did.
A guy like Lin Xi who is so bold and reckless, reducing its staff all day long, might make the hospital very angry...if it has teeth. A team of doctors without a single living person might directly contact the hospital and represent the hospital's words.
So after Lin Xi said this, Chen Sheng thought for a while and asked the other doctors and nurses to leave first.
Doctor Chen Sheng is definitely an important NPC in this hospital instance, Lin Xi analyzed. First, he is the doctor for the critically ill patients on the fourth floor, and he is the leader every time he makes rounds; secondly,
His performance has always been impeccable. No matter what weird actions Lin Xi makes, he can always deal with them seriously. Finally, he is also Sun Kege's attending physician.
Lin Xi always felt that Sun Keke was not a simple character, because she was so much like a human. Except for her still cold skin, there was almost nothing about her that looked like a ghost, or rather, she sincerely regarded herself as a human.
If Brother Sun Ke was not a special person in this hospital, Lin Xi would have simply chewed up the bed.
Chen Sheng worked across three or four floors of wards to become Sun Kege's doctor, which shows that Chen Sheng is not a simple character.
Seeing that Chen Sheng asked the others to leave first, Lin Xi had already guessed that Chen Sheng had something to say to him, so he made an expression of "all ears". Chen Sheng took advantage of the fact that no one was around and simply stopped pretending and played a showdown game with Lin Xi.
He took off his glasses, took out a glasses cloth from his chest pocket, and gently wiped the lenses. While wiping, he said: "To be honest, I didn't agree with getting involved with the committee from the beginning, and doing such a copy. Just as I thought, it's not a good thing. The number of patients in the hospital has dropped sharply, and even the number of patrol nurses has steadily decreased by one every day."
After Chen Sheng finished speaking, the lenses were almost clean. Chen Sheng picked up the glasses, put them on, and gently pushed the frame above the tip of his nose with his fingers.
"But my words don't count. This is the decision of the hospital and them. They want to see change, they want to see a different situation. I don't know if they will be satisfied with the current situation."
Lin Xi didn’t know who the “ta” Chen Sheng was talking about, but the first person that came to his mind was Brother Sun Ke.
According to the information leaked by Chen Sheng, Sun Kege should be the architect of this instance, or both she and the hospital. But Lin Xi thought about Sun Kege's appearance in her heart. She looked innocent and innocent, and she didn't look like a scheming ghost...
It's impossible that Sun Ke's acting skills are so natural and amazing that Lin Xi and Shen Sang Ning can't see any problems at all.
Lin Xi was thinking about so many things that her expression was a little dull, but she quickly adjusted herself and asked Chen Sheng: "Are you satisfied now?"
This question was a waste of time. Chen Sheng even rolled his eyes at Lin Xi. Well, this guy dared to roll his eyes at me. I'll let my wife do him!
Although Lin Xi's question was rather unnecessary, Chen Sheng still answered her: "Of course I am not satisfied. I want you to leave the hospital immediately. But they don't want to. You have come here, and if you don't let them get what they want, they will definitely not be willing."
When Lin Xi heard Chen Sheng's words, she immediately took advantage of the situation and said with a smile, "Since you want us to leave the hospital, then our positions should be the same. Shouldn't we help each other?"
Chen Sheng had never met such a shameless person. He was a ghost, and Lin Xi was a human. How could they help each other? At first, he even thought Lin Xi was joking. After looking at Lin Xi several times and making sure that she was telling the truth, he was speechless.
"Even if I'm not happy with the status quo and don't agree with them being mixed up with the committee, I can't help you."
"I've said so much, even deliberately leaked information to you, just to tell you... you'd better not go too far. If you continue like this, it will be embarrassing for everyone."
Who said that? This plot is obviously quite good.
Lin Xi refuted Chen Sheng's point of view in his heart, but he said nothing on his face, just smiled. Chen Sheng was asking for trouble, and he didn't plan to stay in Lin Xi's ward for long. Before Chen Sheng left, Lin Xi said, "It's not impossible for ghosts and humans to help each other. If you change your mind, you are welcome to come to me at any time."
Chen Sheng paused for a moment before leaving, but still did not look back. When he walked out the door, he politely closed Lin Xi's ward door with his backhand.
This day was no different from any other day. When Lin Xi was setting up a stall in the corner during the afternoon exercise time, he still saw Sun Ke. Sun Ke was a little embarrassed, but when he saw Lin Xi, he honestly moved over step by step.
She looked down and saw a large package of mixed konjac soda that was particularly eye-catching on the stall, and swallowed her saliva helplessly. Lin Xi knew that no one could resist konjac soda. Maybe after Sun Ke went back yesterday, he couldn't sleep at night, tossing and turning thinking about the taste of konjac soda.
Sun Kege's face was full of desire, and you could tell at a glance that she was really greedy.
After hesitating for a while, Sun Ke still squatted in front of Lin Xi's stall, stretched out his hand to take the big bag of mixed products, and immediately took out 500 yuan from his pocket, with a painful look on his face: "Here, you know how to do business. You take so much money out of my pocket every day. I really lose to you."
Lin Xi showed the expression of a profiteer: "Wait, who said it was 500? The price has increased, 1000."
The moment she heard the final price, Sun Kege's eyes widened bigger than bells. She couldn't control her voice and questioned on the spot: "Mr. Duo?! Are you crazy about money?! You said 500 yesterday, and 1000 today! Even those who rob money can't be as fast as you!"
"Didn't I tell you yesterday that this is a discounted price? If you take it directly, I'll give you 500? If you don't want it, the discount period is over, so of course it will return to the original price."
Hearing Lin Xi's nonsense, Sun Ke looked at the konjac in her hand and she didn't want it anymore. The price was too expensive. She could buy a pack of cigarettes with it from Lin Xi. Cigarettes were more important to her than her life. Although konjac was delicious, it was not as good as cigarettes. She hesitated immediately. The hand holding the konjac was no longer firm. Instead, she slowly prepared to put it down.
Of course Lin Xi saw her hesitation, and she added fuel to the fire for Sun Kege: "1,000 is already a very favorable price. If you come again tomorrow, it will be 1,500. Isn't Konjac delicious? A cigarette has only 20 cigarettes. Even if you only smoke one cigarette a day, you can only smoke it for 20 days. But Konjac is different. There are 50 packs in this big bag. If you eat one pack a day, you can eat it for 50 days!"
——Wait, that doesn’t seem to be the case.
Sun Kege's brain was a little confused by Lin Xi's trick, so Lin Xi used her trump card. She didn't wait for Sun Kege to answer, she simply reached out her hand and grabbed the other side of the Konjac Shuang packaging, forming a wrestling situation with Sun Kege.
"Forget it, put the Konjac Juice down. I can see that although you really want it, you are a poor guy and can't afford it. Stop pinching the packaging and ruining my bag. If you leave it there, there will definitely be someone else who wants to buy it."
"Who's the poor one? You're the poor one!"
Feeling Lin Xi's force on the packaging bag, Sun Kege suddenly panicked. She used more force than before when she was hesitating to put it down. She held the konjac tightly. When she heard Lin Xi's words, she couldn't help but sprayed back directly.
It was obvious that Sun Kege was no match for Lin Xi in terms of skills, so in the end she still took out the 1,000 yuan.
