Chapter 160 Hotel Copy (XVIII)
"Why are you here just now?" It was already past mealtime, and the madman was in the room with his stomach growling with hunger. As a result, he had to wait for nearly an hour before Ning Hanqi pushed the food cart over.
After he finished speaking, he realized his tone was off, and quickly cleared his throat to explain, "Do you know that coming too late can be very dangerous? If my talisman fails, you'll be attacked by ghosts! By then, I won't be able to save you even if I want to!"
After that, the madman, as usual, took some strange water and sprinkled it on her, and then took three incense sticks to fumigate her body. Only after the whole process was completed did he allow Ning Hanqi to enter the room. Although someone was so hungry that he wanted to jump directly onto the food cart, his qualities as a liar made him swallow his saliva and hold back.
"I'm sorry, we're too busy today. Many customers ordered food, and there's only one chef in our kitchen after dinner, so we're late." In fact, Ning Hanqi did it on purpose, because she couldn't always follow the wishes of this madman, otherwise what she said later would be useless.
"Is that so? I don't mean to blame you. Okay, okay, put everything down and I'll give you some new talismans." Although the madman wanted to say that she didn't know how to let the kitchen cook her own food first, in order to maintain his own personality, he could only swallow these words back into his stomach.
The power that Ning Hanqi put into Gao Yu's body was prepared by Xia Yingnuan. It can indeed save her life when necessary, and can be used to scare her to prevent her from frequently seeking death. In that case, no one can save her.
Gao Yu moved her right arm which was beginning to recover to normal. After confirming that this cold power could save her life, she immediately revealed a gentle and sweet smile. The speed at which her expression changed made Ning Hanqi feel a little ashamed.
"No problem, no problem." Gao Yu was not a naive child. If someone really told her that he could guarantee that she would come out of the Sea Amusement Park copy alive, she would suspect that the other person was a liar who wanted to cheat her of her deposit.
There is a rule for guides that a deposit must be paid after the transaction is concluded. No guide dares to say that he can bring the player out of the dungeon 100%, but as long as the player enters the dungeon, the guide must bear the risk. In order to prevent losing all the money, a tacit understanding has gradually formed among this profession, that is, the deposit system.
Gao Yu took out the binding items she had collected, put the two people's cross pocket watches together and engraved a mark on them. After that, when the copy was opened, Ning Hanqi would enter the game with her.
After finishing all this, Gao Yu breathed a sigh of relief. "Heh." Xia Yingnuan sneered, "I think she's quite brave. She won't be scared."
Ning Hanqi's pale face turned a little red, and tears seemed to flash in his eyes.
"hot……"
"Miss Xia, you burned her!"
The scene that followed was a bit chaotic. Xia Yingnuan stuffed the lunch box in her hand directly into Ms. Lu's hand, then picked up the warm water on the low cabinet and blew on it until the water in the cup became cold. Then she brought the cup to Ning Hanqi's mouth.
"Take a sip of coolness."
A mouthful of ice water relieved the stinging pain from being scalded by the porridge, and Ning Hanqi's frown relaxed slightly.
"I'm sorry I wasn't paying attention. Does it still hurt?"
After Ning Hanqi swallowed the water in her mouth, Xia Yingnuan tried to pry open her mouth to see if she was burned.
For Ms. Lu, it was only about two days since she had seen the two of them interact, but the atmosphere between them had completely changed. Before, how could Ms. Lu have imagined the way this arrogant dungeon boss would apologize?
Back then, her eyes were filled with aggression. Ms. Lu had no doubt she might drag Miss Ning down with her. Now, despite the estrangement, her gaze on Miss Ning was much softer. Although the duration of this Shuitian Apartment dungeon was uncertain, it wasn't long, was it? As far as I could remember, none lasted more than ten days. Miss Ning was indeed amazing. I didn't know how she did it.
A certain light bulb consciously moved away from the chair and gave his seat to Xia Yingnuan.
"It's okay, I'm not that delicate." Ning Hanqi was forced to open his mouth, fortunately no blisters were formed.
Ms. Lu stood there for a long time, not knowing whether to stay or leave.
"Ahem, Nuannuan...Ms. Lu is still here."
Xia Yingnuan glanced back at her, and Ms. Lu gave her a tired smile.
"You're still here." Xia Yingnuan frowned slightly. Although she didn't say anything, Ms. Lu already felt full of disgust.
I feel really bad that she is still a third wheel.
"What happened to Chang Yue?" Xia Yingnuan thought of the topic that she had just interrupted.
"It's nothing. It's just that Miss Lu, as Chang Yue's teacher, is worried about her situation. I heard that her test results were not very ideal, right?" Ning Hanqi glanced at Ms. Lu.
"Yes, she only passed Chinese and English in her final exam of the second year of high school." Ms. Lu also had a headache thinking about this. Chang Yue had a very negative attitude towards learning. To be precise, she didn't know how long she could live, so she was even more negative about the future than herself. But she was a smart child, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to go through so many dungeons alone, so as long as she was willing, she would definitely be able to learn well.
"Oh, then there is a lot of room for improvement." Xia Yingnuan found a euphemism.
"Ms. Xia, your copy has existed for many years. I think you must be knowledgeable and see more than us humans. In these years... have you seen any players who have truly resurrected?" Ms. Lu was playing with her mobile phone. She didn't know if she was influenced by Chang Yue, but her tone sounded a little negative.
The forum has existed for many years, and there have been various speculations about the conditions for clearing the dungeon, but there has not been a real case of clearing the dungeon in all these years. All we can see are the posts of the big guys on the forum that have never been updated. The players are like a group of confused sheep, driven by death and unable to see hope. Stumbling and fatigue are taking their lives.
"Although there are very few, there are indeed players who have completed the game. You just don't know about it." Seeing her pitiful appearance, Xia Yingnuan gave her a reassurance.
"As expected..." Ms. Lu smiled, then raised her phone and had the person on the screen face Xia Yingnuan: "Did you hear that? Miss Xia has admitted it. If you can't finish your homework over the weekend, you can wait until Monday to write a self-review."
Chang Yue on the phone screen opened her eyes wide in shock. She was rocking the stool carelessly, but after exchanging a glance with Xia Yingnuan, she was so frightened that she lost her balance and fell directly under the table. Then, no one could be seen on the screen.
"Thank you, Miss Xia. It turns out that to educate a child, you have to hire some 'people' that she is afraid of. Miss Ning, you have a good rest. I'm leaving first." Ms. Lu waved her hand in a good mood, then left the ward and left the space to them.
"I've only heard of some scary things... that can stop children from crying at night, but I didn't expect it could also make disobedient students do their homework." Ning Hanqi laughed several times.
"Am I that scary?" Xia Yingnuan tried to keep a straight face, but finally thought of Chang Yue falling and laughed, "The porridge is not hot anymore, eat it quickly, otherwise it will get cold."
Ning Hanqi took the lunch box and after taking a bite carefully this time, she frowned and said, "It's not as delicious as what you made."
"What's the difference between white porridge... Just bear with it for another day. After you are discharged from the hospital tomorrow, go directly to the old lady's house. Only there can you cook." Xia Yingnuan didn't notice any difference between this white porridge and the one she made herself.
"Nuannuan, are you still willing to cook for me?" Ning Hanqi thought that after coming out, he could order takeout and he would no longer have this treatment.
"What else? Letting you, a kitchen killer, go in and blow up the house?" Xia Yingnuan hadn't even considered ordering takeout. With Ning Hanqi's delicate body, if the takeout wasn't clean, wouldn't she end up in the hospital every few days? Wouldn't she still have to take care of her herself in the end?
"I want to be discharged today, okay?" Who would want to eat the hospital meal when they can eat Xia Yingnuan's food?
"Ms. Gao Yu, how much information have you collected about this copy of the Sea Amusement Park?" Ning Hanqi asked as he took back the cross pocket watch.
Gao Yu thought Ning Hanqi was checking her preparations before entering the copy, so she told her all the information she had collected.
In order to clear the 12th round of ghost and god copies, players almost used all their hidden abilities to show off their skills, and money ability is also a kind of ability.
Don't be fooled by Gao Yu's plain and ordinary clothes. She is a genuine rich girl, and not just ordinary rich. Through the channels opened up by her super powers over the past year, she has obtained more information than ordinary players.
In Gao Yu's opinion, Ning Hanqi was a big shot recommended by all the prophets. Gao Yu guessed that the other party came to be the guide not for the purpose of making money. Although the price he offered was very high, the danger of this copy was unquestionable. If the other party really wanted to make quick money, he could just take a few more copies. Anyway, no matter how much time passed in the copy, it would only be a moment outside.
Those big guys who want to enter the ghost and god copy usually have other purposes, so Ning Hanqi must have made preparations in advance. The other party should know more about the copy than himself, and let him tell what he knows, probably to see if there is anything he has overlooked?
How could she have imagined that the big guy in front of her was really unfamiliar with the Sea Amusement Park copy?
Gao Yu spent a long time sorting out the information he had obtained, and he didn't stop until Ning Hanqi had almost finished a cup of coffee.
"Is that all?" Ning Hanqi glanced at Gao Yu who had stopped talking.
"This is all the information I've collected." Gao Yu was a little nervous, just like when he was in school and his teacher asked him questions.
"Well, you must remember this after entering the dungeon. Don't violate the monsters' taboos." Ning Hanqi wrote down the information Bai had obtained, and then said, "Please introduce yourself a little more."
"Oh... okay." Gao Yu, who thought she would get guidance from the big boss, was stunned for a moment, and then carefully told Ning Hanqi some of her confidentiality methods, so that the big boss could have a preliminary judgment of her own ability. Of course, she also kept a trump card. In a place where neither people nor ghosts can be trusted, only a fool would reveal all his cards.
After listening to Gao Yu's analysis of herself, Ning Hanqi had an idea of how to lead her. Without considering the difficulty of the copy, this Miss Gao Yu was much easier to lead than Ms. Lu when she was young.
"I'm almost sure about your situation. Go back and get some rest. The prophet said the amusement park boat is almost arriving."
Gao Yu, who was waiting for the boss's guidance, shuddered. Although it was indeed almost time for the next dungeon to start, when the boss said it so clearly, Gao Yu found that she had to face the emotions that she had deliberately ignored during this period.
She thought she was calm enough when she made her will, but now the chill spread from her limbs to her heart, and the sore and trembling feeling in her legs made her realize that she was not that brave.
"Miss Ning, aren't you afraid?" Gao Yu looked at her own incompetent reaction, and then looked at Ning Hanqi who was still in the mood to enjoy the cake. She sincerely admired this person who looked much younger than herself. Is this the calmness of the big guys?
"I'm scared." Ning Hanqi was of course also scared. She was not afraid of death, but she was afraid of failure.
Gao Yu laughed out loud, "You don't look scared at all."
"Maybe it's because I have few facial expressions, so you didn't notice it?" Ning Hanqi joked with a slightly curved eyebrow.
This joke dispelled the panic in Gao Yu's heart. Following a big man who could joke calmly before the ghost and god copy was opened, she felt a little more at ease.
The rich young lady was so happy that she planned to invite Ning Hanqi to go shopping in her own shopping mall, and she would pay for everything he liked.
Ning Hanqi declined her kindness. Even if this young lady really wanted to treat her, she should wait until she came out of the copy alive. If the other party died in there, she would feel embarrassed for taking other people's things.
Miss Gao could only see Ning Hanqi off with a look of regret.
The next time they met was in the dungeon.
"It's her." Ning Hanqi did not tell her the details of the replacement of the supervisor, but because of some details, Jiang Man also guessed something.
"I told you..." Jiang Man smiled, his face pale. "It's obvious that our foreman is a tough guy, and the supervisor has repeatedly targeted him. But I have to thank the supervisor for this. If he hadn't been so eager to target the foreman, I would have been the first one to be eliminated in the last-in-first-out elimination system."
Ning Hanqi then heard from Jiang Man that the former supervisor had targeted the foreman by creating a last-place elimination system. Jiang Man was originally at the bottom of the list, and when she saw that she was about to be eliminated, the conflict between the foreman and the supervisor became more and more intense. After several quarrels, the last place went to the foreman. When Jiang Man finally saw the score sheet, he found that he still had 30 points, but the foreman only had 10 points left.
