Chapter 117: The Cave of Sorrow (26) If I get it, I’m lucky. If I don’t, it’s my fate…
Plop, plop, plop.
Xiao Canglan, Bo Yao and Wo Lanbei fell down one after another.
"What the hell did Wei Wei give us?" As soon as he landed, Wolanbei rushed over, grabbed Gao Mengtang by the collar, and roared like thunder.
Gao Mengtang tried his best to tilt his head back: "Well, you may be angry, but I have a slight mysophobia, so don't spit on my face."
"I'm asking you a question, go ahead!" Wolanbei's hair was very messy. When he got angry, the blood rushed to his head and his hair stood up like a hedgehog. "Is he going to hurt me? I've known him for ten years, and he wants to hurt me too!"
If I guessed correctly, Qin Xishuang played mad and fooled Wei Wei, and Wei Wei probably wanted to take the opportunity to trick Qin Xishuang into taking the medicine. Wo Lanbei was a thick-skinned person and took the bait.
"Calm down," Gao Mengtang pushed his hand away, "I've eaten too, it's okay."
Pegana: “Oh?”
Gao Mengtang: "Don't bark, dog."
Hearing this, Wolanbei calmed down a little. He rubbed his tight scalp, and the blue veins on the sides of his neck and temples deflated.
He and Wei Wei were classmates in college. They entered the Black Tower game together and fought hand in hand for more than three years. Wolanbei no longer wanted to recall the memories of life and death and fighting side by side, but the past was like the moon, no matter whether people on the earth looked up or not, it was always there, forever.
"Do you know why Wei Wei betrayed Gu Kang?" Wo Lanbei said.
Gao Mengtang: "There is no atmosphere for reminiscing about the past right now. I suggest that we go out and have a hotpot dinner first, and then we can talk about these things while we eat."
The four players stood up, stuck to the cliff, away from the river bank, and trudged through the mud.
"Even if I die here and am dragged into the river by a butcher, I will find out why Wei Wei rebelled," Wo Lanbei said, "Otherwise, even if I die, I will become a butcher and shoot you into sieves."
Bo Yao hunched his shoulders and sniffled: "I just wanted to get my 726 ID card back, why did it turn out like this... I won't die here, my father's approval is no longer important, I want to get out alive."
The mud covered his instep. Gao Mengtang pulled his legs out and walked forward, one step deep and one step shallow. He was wondering what the effect of Wei Wei's pill was.
He said half a sentence through the mind link: This pill is in line with my personal skills, and can...
For others, it means being able to withstand a fatal blow.
Wei Wei's personal skill [Reform] can revive a person once, which can be linked to resisting a fatal blow. However, is it that simple?
"There's someone in front." Wolanbei took out his pistol.
A few men were walking in front of them, carrying medicine baskets on their backs, and their conversations could be heard from time to time.
"What was the name of the woman who married the Ghost Doctor last time?"
"Kyoko."
"Oh yes, she's so ugly, it makes me sick just looking at her."
"Shut up! Don't be disrespectful to the Queen!"
Gao Mengtang had also heard this conversation. Why did the NPC in the village repeat the previous conversation?
The weird feeling is getting stronger and stronger. There is definitely something wrong with these NPCs...
Bang.
The sound of gunfire interrupted Gao Mengtang's thoughts.
More than 30 meters away, the bullet entered from the back of the head and passed through the left eye socket. Wo Lanbei put one hand in his pocket and held the gun with the other hand, and the rain wet the scope.
"Tsk, it was a little off. I wanted to shoot right between the eyebrows."
The sharp laughter of the female ghost sounded again, and the other two herbalist NPCs fled for their lives. Wolanbei didn't even aim, but fired two shots at random, accurately shattering their kneecaps.
The player dragged two half-dead, wailing people and followed the burial beetle forward. Freesia ran around innocently behind them. She was a little hungry, so she bit the thigh meat of one of them.
After just two chews, Xiao Fenglan spat out the meat with a "Puh!" sound: "Stinky!"
That shouldn't be the case. Freesia likes to eat human flesh the most. Men's flesh is indeed a bit smelly, but she won't dislike it.
Just as I was about to look back, I suddenly felt a chill on my back.
The wailing sound changed and became shrill. Wolanbei was holding the NPC's ankle with one hand. He noticed something unusual and looked down in confusion.
The body of the herbalist was getting lighter and lighter, almost weightless. The pitch of the scream was extremely high, close to the limit of human hearing, and the eardrum was stinging.
He looked back and cold sweat instantly broke out all over his body.
Originally, the herbalist was face down, with one of his ankles being dragged on the ground by him. But at this moment, in a way that violated biology and physics, his upper body floated up, his waist twisted 180 degrees, and his face was level with him.
Wolanbei turned around and kicked the monster, which was kicked more than 10 meters away, followed by a dense rain of shooting.
The gunshots rang out like firecrackers for half a minute, and the two men were finally dead. Wolanbei quickly dug out their hearts.
"Luckily, I was able to shoot right at the heart. It's still intact and usable."
They passed two stone tablets in a row and chose to restore their spirit points. When they reached the third stone tablet, the choice was a bit abstract.
Wolanbei cursed: "What a stupid option, option B, let's choose option B and meet more villagers."
"What is option A?" Gao Mengtang asked.
Wolanbei: "It's useless."
Gao Mengtang: "You are so impatient and arbitrary. I will tell Wei Wei."
"Option A is to gain a stronger desire to attack. What's the point of having a stronger desire to attack? Chasing after your teammates and attacking them?" Wo Lanbei was very annoyed because he found that Gao Mengtang's casual words could influence his emotions. "Is this how you took down Wei Wei? Pretending to be weak and pitiful?"
Gao Mengtang: “…” This person is not normal.
After making the choice, the stone tablet shattered. Gao Mengtang didn't have time to think about it. He only heard two gunshots. Wo Lanbei shot and killed the NPC in the village, followed the burial beetle, and walked to the next stone tablet.
The cottage was located on the river bank and the flood had breached the embankment and spread into the yard.
Before they even reached the shore, the mental pollution had increased significantly, and the players' faces suddenly became ugly. Wolanbei's index finger was always on the trigger, and Bo Yao had already put up a layer of shield.
Surrounded by mist, the small house looked like a small boat in the middle of the river, swaying slightly in the strong wind.
A whistling sound suddenly sounded, and the butcher Li Xing rushed out of the river. She was swollen like a ball, with a ferocious face, and she approached the player at a rapid speed.
Wolanbei fired three shots in a row, hitting the butcher's left eye, right eye and forehead respectively.
The bullet hit Li Xing, and disappeared without a sound. She was not affected at all, and moved even faster.
In an instant, Bo Yao and Xiao Canglan attacked several times in succession. Gao Mengtang also used Merlis's skill [Hidden Arrow], but it also had no effect.
Seeing that the butcher's claws were about to scratch her nose, Pegana howled "Ah Woo!" and the four of them controlled her and took the opportunity to retreat.
"This thing is immune to attacks?" Wolanbei panted, "Impossible, this is only a level 5 copy, there can't be such a strong butcher!"
Gao Mengtang remembered the system's prompt: Li Xing'er is difficult to kill... She has a weakness, can you find it?
"Steady steady first and find the butcher's weakness!" Gao Mengtang shouted.
"You really don't know what the weakness is?!" Wo Lanbei cursed and continued to aim and shoot. His eyesight was very good, and even with the interference of the heavy rain, every shot hit the forehead. After firing more than a dozen bullets, Li Xing was unharmed.
After using Pegana's Fear Magnetic Field multiple times, the effect will become less and less effective. Seeing the Butcher's controlled time getting shorter and shorter, and his attacks getting more and more fierce, the player is at a loss.
Another claw grabbed over, and the raindrops were as sharp as needles, piercing the player.
"Merlis, Wuyin!" Gao Mengtang shouted.
The white mist dissipated, and the player's figure disappeared from Li Xing's sight in an instant.
The butcher would absorb water and swell. In just five minutes, her body length expanded from 1.6 meters to more than two meters in height, and was still growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
With his heavy body, every step he took carried a powerful pressure.
The four players held their breath and covered their mouths tightly as the butcher passed by them one meter away.
Gao Mengtang poked Wolanbei hard, meaning to let him find his weakness.
I didn't see any weak points. Wo Lanbei spoke with his lips, emphasizing each word, and the shape of his lips and tongue was more standard than that of the announcer.
After saying the last word, he suddenly remembered that Gao Mengtang was blind, and it was useless for him to lip-sync. Wo Lanbei was so angry that he wanted to hit Gao Mengtang. Seeing his beautiful and innocent face and his confused big eyes, he turned his fist and punched the air.
The duration of the skill [Hide in the Mist] is only 5 minutes. The mist is getting thinner and thinner, but the butcher is still wandering around.
Suddenly, she turned her head and stared in the direction of Gao Mengtang. She could see the player!

[Outsider Qin Xishuang violated the rules of the game and persecuted other players, and will be punished]
[Punishment: Loss of a memory.]
[Wei Wei, only you know this: In this game, Qin Xishuang's memory is easily confused]
The line of words that only Wei Wei could see gradually faded away.
"Oh, I just lost a memory," Qin Xishuang laughed at herself, "I don't have an unswerving love, so the rest, just forget it."
Wei Wei sat on the ground, his dark green Tang suit wet by the rain, making the green look even more intense. Qin Xishuang, who was standing beside him, was still wearing her red wedding dress. The two bright colors were particularly eye-catching in the distant rain.
Calm down. Calm down. Wei Wei forced himself to sort out his chaotic thoughts and think of a solution first.
In the Stele Forest Labyrinth, even with the guidance of the Burial Beetle, the location the player goes to is random. In other words, whether or not you can meet Gao Mengtang in the labyrinth depends entirely on your luck.
Even if he went back to the cliff and jumped down, he would most likely not land where Gao Mengtang landed.
Wandering around in the maze, trying to meet Gao Mengtang and the others, was a complete gamble of life. Perhaps, after they left the maze, things would turn around.
"Here, I'll give you a gift." Qin Xishuang gathered her wet golden hair. Her light blue eyes were as crystal clear as ice cubes soaked in cold water.
He leaned down and smoothed Wei Wei's wet silver hair to the top of his head, and gently brushed his earlobe with his fingers. The rich floral fragrance between his sleeves was particularly sticky with the water vapor.
"Do you like it?" Qin Xishuang smiled.
There was a bamboo earring on Wei Wei's earlobe.
"You didn't show any surprise at all." Qin Xishuang looked hurt. "I thought you would like it... I carefully preserved it for a long time. This is Gu Kang's relic."
Wei Wei was annoyed if he said one more word to him. He turned his face away and said nothing.
Qin Xishuang lost a part of his memory. Which part was it? Li Mo also said that his memory is easily confused now...
"Awei, I know you better than Gao Mengtang," Qin Xishuang squatted in front of Wei Wei, "Have you forgotten that Gu Kang once joined forces with you and me to assassinate Yin Mingwu. We used to be comrades-in-arms."
I wonder if that sincere look is a result of excellent acting skills. Wei Wei weakly slapped his hand away, his tone flat and tired: "Chief Qin, are you doing a courtship dance?"
Qin Xishuang was not ashamed and said frankly: "Yes."
"Besides finding a spouse, don't you have any higher pursuits?"
"No. Love is the only eternal thing I can touch." Qin Xishuang stared at Wei Wei's eyes seriously. "What about you? How noble is your pursuit. You like money because it is easier to get than true love. I dare to look for my only soul mate in this vast world. If I find her, I am lucky. If I don't, it's my fate. What about you?"*
Qin Xishuang stood up and curled her lips sarcastically: "You don't even dare to set off."
No memory about Gu Kang was lost. Wei Wei thought that the labyrinth of the stele forest seemed to be arranging something in the dark. Which memory of Qin Xishuang did Li Mo delete? What kind of ending did he want to arrange for Qin Xishuang?
Qin Xishuang continued his emotional education class: "You like money. Even if you are rich, if you have never met the soul that will always respond to you, sitting alone in the manor villa, watching the mountains, rivers, sun and moon, will you feel happy?"
Wei Wei was very sure: "Yes."
Qin Xishuang: "...hard talk,"
"But it doesn't matter. I will teach you that true love is more touching than anything else in the world." Qin Xishuang pulled Wei Wei up in a gentlemanly manner. "Don't be nervous, Awei. I won't hurt you. For now."
"I have two lives. At the critical moment, I will cut out my heart and give it to you."
The lightning falling from the sky seemed to strike Wei Wei. His whole body trembled and his heart beat wildly.
Qin Xishuang lost the memory of his death once.
