Chapter 25 Lunar Eclipse (4) (1)



As expected, this was the clue to the main mission that Fu Yi wanted them to find.

Yu Qirong had a half-serious face, his fingers stroking the things he had just picked up from the ground in his pocket, but his eyes were fixed on the area behind Uncle Xu.

They followed the team, which seemed to be walking from low to high. The last place they arrived at was a slightly flat top, with a thousand-foot cliff on the other side.

If it was an ordinary cliff, it would be fine, but Yu Qirong could see the black fog. He saw that the black fog, which usually only appeared when his classmates went crazy, actually gathered together in the air and lingered on one side of the cliff, as if it would plunder the village from above at any time.

No wonder they escaped from Huangsha Village.

Yu Qirong lowered his eyes, his eyelashes slightly curved against the bone mask, and he looked at the sand under his feet.

It seems that the lunar eclipse day is when the black fog is rampant, so we have to escape.

But this is the high ground of Huangsha Village. Once the water rushes down from above, it will be like a flood bursting through a dam, and the whole village will be affected. Outside is all desert. Where can they escape?

The sand under his feet moved slightly, and Yu Qirong saw a pair of black shoes in front of him. He walked up and saw Su Tang's stern face. He couldn't help but frowned slightly and stared at Su Tang with a slightly cold look.

This person looks cold, abstinent, and bright, but actually he is a bad guy just like everyone else.

Su Tang, who was treated coldly, did not argue, but handed something to Yu Qirong, "Keep it."

Yu Qirong looked at the object that was handed to her curiously. It was an emerald green jade round button, crystal clear, not like a plastic toy, but like a cuff removed from a suit. It felt warm in her hand, as if there was a stream of heat flowing through it.

This strange feeling was very familiar, similar to the feeling he had just had in his abdomen.

"What is this?" Yu Qirong spread out his palm and handed the jade cufflinks in his hand forward.

Su Tang's eyebrows moved slightly, and he moved his lips, but he didn't say anything.

"...If you don't tell me, I won't accept it." Yu Qirong handed it forward again to show his determination.

Su Tang lowered his eyes, suppressed his emotions, and said calmly: "You are not in good health."

Yu Qirong's health was of course not good. The damage done by the black fog could not be seen from the outside, but the inside was already riddled with holes.

But how does Su Tang know these things?

The side quest released by the system is there, and Yu Qirong really has to be on guard.

Yu Qirong raised his eyelids, and his mouth slightly raised, revealing a not-so-happy smile. He stood on tiptoe, pinched the jade cufflinks, threw them into the small pocket on Su Tang's chest, and returned them to Su Tang intact, "I'm in good health."

Su Tang just lowered his eyes and looked at him, standing there motionless, with a trace of hurt in his eyes, which made Yu Qirong inappropriately think of the movie he saw in school, about a loyal dog named Hachiko.

Yu Qirong was impressed by his own associative ability and focused his attention on watching Uncle Xu's performance.

After those people wearing white cloths went down, a few people wearing colorful masks appeared in the open space, dancing some incomprehensible dance in the open space, stirring up a large amount of yellow sand. It was a bit easy to get hurt by mistake if standing in front. Yu Qirong planned to quietly avoid them, but he was caught by Uncle Xu.

"Young man!" Uncle Xu smiled with wrinkles all over his face, and he enthusiastically called Yu Qirong over: "You've come just in time, come on!"

Yu Qirong hesitated for a while, but still went over. However, Uncle Xu's behavior at this time was quite different from when he met them. At that time, he was indifferent, but now he was very enthusiastic. Yu Qirong had to pay attention secretly to avoid being tricked.

Uncle Xu didn't do anything unusual. He just said to Yu Qirong happily, "Don't you want to... watch the lunar eclipse? Let me tell you, the higher the place, the clearer the view. Come here after dinner to watch it. That's the best effect... Go back and tell the others too."

Yu Qirong agreed perfunctorily, but Uncle Xu didn't care. He was probably really happy, and shouted loudly when Yu Qirong was leaving: "Remember to come!"

I will definitely come, but I have to see what the situation is first.

After returning to the place where we were originally staying, the situations of several groups of people were almost the same.

There are several families where someone has died. It is said that there is no strange thing, but there is a legend passed down orally in Huangsha Village.

It is said that on the day of the lunar eclipse, the Moon God will descend and bless all the villagers who come to worship in Huangsha Village. He will also resurrect the believers who died on that day and give them eternal life.

As soon as you hear this, you can tell that it has a lot of fantasy elements. Even the NPC who has taken political courses in the school copy would not believe it. However, the people here regard it as a legend and put it into practice.

Yu Qirong rubbed his temples with a tired look in his eyes. It is indeed necessary to popularize high school education.

"Has anyone heard any news about Yu Qirong?" Fu Yi continued to ask.

Yu Qirong's body paused imperceptibly. With the help of the mask, he lowered his eyes and focused, paying attention to the movements of the people around him.

Lin Siyue: "We have asked around, and there is no one with this name in Huangsha Village."

Lu Tao hurriedly followed up and said, "We are the same. Not to mention the people who are there now, even those who were called in the past don't have such people. It seems that there is no such person in Huangsha Village at all."

"I do have an idea." Xiangyang said.

Yu Qirong raised his eyelids and looked at him, his hand hidden in his suit sleeve holding the dragon hook jade.

"Is it possible that the Moon Goddess is Yu Qirong? After all, the description of Yu Qirong in the side quest is a 'high-risk NPC'. If he is just an ordinary villager, he should not fall into this category."

The high-risk NPC Yu Qirong himself looked away, but saw Su Tang standing next to him staring at him intently.

Fu Yi nodded: "That's possible."

Yu Qirong was originally worried that Su Tang would say something, but until the end of the discussion, Su Tang did not speak a word, and conscientiously played the role of a mute. Even the discovery of the floor tiles was made by him, and Su Tang was only responsible for taking out the stone brick.

Seeing this stone brick, Meng Chan, who had been silent all this time, stopped fiddling with the Buddhist beads in his hand. He pushed up his glasses and said in a gentle voice, "I think I've seen it before."

"Hmm?" Fu Yi turned his head to look at the team member who was traveling with him, motioning him to continue.

"It's probably the family surnamed Sun in the village. There are stone bricks on the outside of their well. It looks to me like there is indeed a piece missing." Meng Chan said as he recalled.

The second boy in the Sun family?

Yu Qirong instantly thought of the identity of the deceased he heard in the crowd. If he was really from their family, then maybe there was some connection.

According to the legend, believers of the Moon God will be resurrected and achieve eternal life, so the second son of the Sun family should also be a believer, so it is reasonable for the family to carve some stone carvings related to the legend. It's just that the place is a bit far away.

"Is it really related to the well?" Lu Tao asked. Seeing that everyone was looking at her, she felt a little embarrassed and pointed outside. "I was thirsty at noon and went to look for water. I saw this kind of carving on the well in Mr. Xu's house."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone immediately rushed out the door and looked at the well outside.

Xiang Yang: “Yes, it is.”

Li Yinggui said, "I saw a lot of pens and papers in the room next to the Xu family. How about we borrow some and make rubbings on paper to look at them slowly, under the pretext of drawing observation points?"

Yu Qirong became excited when he heard about pen and paper. He quietly took a piece of paper and a pen while no one was paying attention and put them in his pocket. He felt insecure without these things.

A well has eight sides, and one person can work on one side, so it can be completed quickly.

The harvest was not much, as the carvings on the stone were not clear to begin with, not to mention that we still didn't know how many years had passed.

Fu Yi took the copy he had made and looked at it thoughtfully: "Generally speaking, people in the desert drink water from the snow-capped mountains, but does everyone here have a well? Isn't it too difficult to drill a well in the desert to get water? Based on the technological level of the villagers in Huangsha Village, can they do it?"

Yu Qirong leaned against the wall, seemingly thinking about what Fu Yi said, but actually he was in a daze.

Exploring rationality in a dungeon? This is the wrong direction.

There are so many unreasonable things in Lanxi High School. If you think about them one by one, Yu Qirong is probably still a student in Lanxi High School, attending classes every day, and there is no need to think about this here.

He was keenly aware that sometimes the copies were not so practical, like an emergency-generated inferior product that was put into use before quality inspection and in-depth research.

The players were inevitably impatient when their thoughts were stuck. This was normal, as there were only a few hours left before the lunar eclipse, and the most terrifying thing was always the unknown.

Lin Siyue threw the paper in her hand and caught Yu Qirong slacking off. She looked sharp and said sharply, "You don't seem to care much about the things in the dungeon. Are you the NPC?"

Yu Qirong raised his eyebrows slightly. He didn't expect that he would be accused of slacking off.

Lin Siyue caught his eyes that were too lacking in empathy, and continued to analyze: "I've thought about it. The so-called high-risk NPC is not necessarily a person from the village. What if he is lurking around us? Brother Yi, you have been through so many dungeons, you should also know that in some dungeons, ghosts will disguise themselves as humans, right?"

Fu Yi frowned and said nothing, but looked towards Yu Qirong, as if waiting for his explanation.

Lin Siyue: "My inference is not groundless. First of all, this person is the only one who has not shown his true face. Moreover, he has white hair and red eyes... I don't believe that none of you have not doubted it."

Yu Qirong sneered: "I am sick and don't want to see anyone."

Lin Siyue pressed on: "What disease?"

Yu Qirong thought for a moment and found a disease that could fully explain it from the knowledge in the biology textbook: "albinism."

White hair and red eyes are symptoms of albinism.

Lin Siyue was speechless for a moment, but quickly found another angle: "I saw you steal paper and pen."

"..." Yu Qirong paused, took his hand out of his pocket, and said innocently: "What should I do with that thing?"

Lin Siyue snorted coldly: "How should I know?"

Her eyes stayed on Yu Qirong's pocket, as if she would not give up until he took it out and showed it to her.

Yu Qirong looked at the others' gazes and obediently took out his pocket, which was empty.

"That's in the system space." Lin Siyue reacted quickly.

Yu Qirong looked at her silently, and the atmosphere became tense.

"No, are you guys mistaken?" Xiang Yang stretched out his hand to interrupt the confrontation between the two sides, "Yu Qi, he can't be an NPC? He and I came from the main god space together, how can an NPC enter the main god space?"

Yu Qirong lowered her snow-white eyelashes just in time to cover her fragile red pupils, looking very hurt.

Lin Siyue seemed to have made a new discovery: "Yu Qi, don't you think this name is fake? It's just one character different from Yu Qirong..."

"That's enough." Fu Yi stopped Lin Siyue from giving further evidence. He looked at Lin Siyue with a blaming look: "Now is not the time to start an internal conflict. The lunar eclipse is coming soon. Instead of thinking about this, you might as well think about how to complete the task."

Lin Siyue curled her lips.

Yu Qirong leaned against the wall and changed his leg to support his body, just in time to bump into Su Tang's dark eyes. Yu Qirong took half a step back without leaving a trace, moving closer to Xiangyang.

I don’t know if it was an illusion, but Su Tang’s dark eyes seemed to contain an even bigger storm, which made people feel inexplicably scared.

Xiang Yang just happened to notice it and couldn't help shuddering. He approached Yu Qirong and asked in a low voice: "Have I ever offended him?"

Yu Qirong shook his head: "I don't know."

He actually hoped that Su Tang would pay less attention to him. This inexplicable concern made him feel a little uncomfortable.

Yu Qirong also cares about the ability to make his negative reactions disappear and the ability to know that he is in poor physical condition.

It’s best if it’s because of coincidence, not because of anything else.

Their brainstorming was interrupted by Mr. Xu, who asked someone to come over and ask them to have dinner and change into their cotton-padded jackets.

The temperature difference between day and night in the desert is huge. It is extremely hot during the day and freezing to death at night.

Mr. Xu himself did not come. I heard that he was busy with the lunar eclipse and the sacrifices to the sun and moon gods and had no time to entertain the guests.

Lu Tao called out to the person who came to inform them. He was a young boy, probably in his teens, and his face blushed when Lu Tao called him.

"What's your name?" Lu Tao has a natural affinity. When she looks at others, she gives people the feeling of being admired by little girls.

"My name is...Xu Zhai." Xu Zhai scratched his head. He was wearing a dark blue cotton jacket and looked a bit young and immature.

"Is it safe to watch the lunar eclipse at night?" Lu Tao asked cautiously, pretending to be nervous. "My companions and I are not very brave. After seeing what happened on the road today, we are a little scared to come back..."

"Don't be afraid!" Speaking of the lunar eclipse, Xu Zhai immediately became a different person. His eyes were bright and he spoke eloquently: "The Moon God is very good. He will grant us believers eternal life. Our water comes from the Moon God's gift. You don't have to be afraid. As long as you drink the water from the well, you are all believers of the Moon God!"

The boy's voice was clear and energetic, but Lu Tao's face froze instantly and she could only smile reluctantly.

The other players also had different expressions. It was obvious that the blessing of the Moon Goddess might not be a good thing for them. If it was a curse or some mark, it would mean that all eight of them would be wiped out.

Xu Zhai seemed not to notice the bad looks on the faces of the others, and said even more enthusiastically: "The blessing of the Moon God will give us eternal life! Isn't this what every mortal yearns for?"

After Xu Zhai left, the atmosphere in the room seemed to collapse immediately. Yu Qirong was still leaning against the wall, calmly observing everyone in the room.

The two calmest people in the room were Yu Qirong, who was not a human being to begin with, and Su Tang, whose depth was unclear.

Lin Siyue couldn't stand the silence and started crying: "What immortality? I'm afraid I'll turn into a monster! I've seen a lot of this before, it's a curse! The cursed are no longer human!"

The second girl in the team, Lu Tao, also looked unhappy. She and Li Yinggui had originally hired someone to do the job, but it seemed that they had been cheated. Fu Yi himself was not 100% sure about this, and she had to rely on her identity as an employer to get protection, so she couldn't get angry for the time being.

Fu Yi was still looking at the painting he had copied in his hand, frowning, as if he was in a mental dilemma.

Meng Chan just kept fiddling with his Buddhist beads. His mind couldn't calm down and he just wanted not to cause more trouble.

Xiangyang was still in the mood to eat. Yu Qirong guessed that he was heartless to some extent.

Yu Qirong put on a dark black cotton jacket, and his figure immediately became rounder. The furry decoration beside the collar made his neck look white.

Xiang Yang noticed Yu Qirong's actions, looked up and asked, "Yu Qi? Where are you going?"

Yu Qirong did not stop, patiently buttoning up each layer of her clothes, and took the time to answer Xiangyang: "It's too stuffy in the room, I'm going to go out for a walk, and if I'm not back later, we'll meet at the top of the mountain."

After finally buttoning his shirt to the top, Yu Qirong looked at Su Tang hesitantly, then pushed the door and walked out.

It was already dark outside, and the Xu family had turned on a few lights. The red lanterns shook violently in the wind, making a creaking sound as if they would go out at any moment.

Yu Qirong put his hand in front of his mouth, blew a few breaths of hot air, and then put it in his pocket to warm it.

The weather here is so unpredictable. It's so hot during the day that I have to unbutton my suit, and it's so cold at night.

He lowered his eyes to the ground and counted to ten seconds in his mind. He took a step for every second he counted.

The moment I counted to ten, the door behind me rang.

Yu Qirong looked back and saw Su Tang pushing the door and walking out with a cotton jacket in his hand. It was obvious that he had not had time to put it on before he followed out.

Seeing Yu Qirong stop and look back at him, he calmly spread out his coat and put it on.

His heart was beating strangely, and Yu Qirong frowned, feeling that Su Tang seemed to understand him better than he thought.

"Why are you following me?" Yu Qirong asked tentatively.

Su Tang said nothing.

Yu Qirong was used to his silence, as if he had predicted it, and continued: "If you don't tell me, I will go to a place where you can't find me."

What he said didn't make any sense. It was obvious that Yu Qirong couldn't leave Su Tang within ten steps, but Yu Qirong made it sound like Su Tang couldn't leave him.

But Su Tang really frowned, as if he was threatened by Yu Qirong.

He had broad shoulders and long legs, and his cotton jacket looked like a windbreaker. The clothes had zippers instead of buttons, but Su Tang seemed to be afraid that Yu Qirong would disappear if he didn't see her, so he didn't bother to zip it up, but just covered the gap with his left and right hands.

If this situation happened at Lanxi High School, Su Tang would be a transfer student. With his looks and figure, Yu Qirong would definitely be interested in waiting for his reply.

Maybe his position in Yu Qirong's heart is even higher than Tang Xingfei's.

Unfortunately, this is in Huangsha Village.

Yu Qirong lost his patience and turned away.

Su Tang's anxious footsteps were heard behind him. He took a few quick steps to catch up with Yu Qirong. When Yu Qirong looked back at him angrily, he used a stern face to cover up everything.

Yu Qirong's threats were ineffective, and Su Tang was a person who would not respond to any attack. Yu Qirong was so angry that he had to do his own thing and pretend that there was no such follower.

He and Fu Yi had different ideas for solving the problem. He didn't need to guess how to complete the task. He just had to wait.

The copy will not stagnate the progress. When necessary, it will even use some methods that make the copy logic illogical to force the player to complete the progress.

As for the losses in the process, whether it is the lives of the players or not, the copy does not care at all.

But even if you have to wait, you have to do something. It’s never a bad thing to know more.

Yu Qirong found the location of the Sun family based on his memory.

In fact, it is very easy to find. The lanterns hung outside other people's houses are mostly red, but since someone had just died in Old Sun's house, the lanterns turned white.

When the wind blows, the white lights look like spirit-calling flags from afar, and timid people would be frightened to the point of mental breakdown when seeing them.

Yu Qirong glanced at Su Tang who was a few steps away from him, raised his hand and knocked on the wooden door of the Sun family. He did not move lightly, fearing that the sound was too small and the people inside would not be able to hear it.

There was a rustling sound from the door, and footsteps approached from far away. After a while, a young woman came out from the other side of the door and asked cautiously, "Who is it?"

Yu Qirong: "I am an astronomy enthusiast who came to the village today."

The woman quickly replied, "What can I do for you? My mother-in-law and father-in-law are not at home. If you want to find them, go to the top of the mountain."

They had gone to the top of the mountain, so early.

Yu Qirong continued through the door: "I came to find you. I saw you on the road today and you seemed to be crying very sadly."

There was a sudden silence over there. After a while, the wooden door opened, revealing a woman's red eyes from crying. Yu Qirong pursed her lips and waited for the woman to speak.

"Come in and sit down first." The woman glanced at Su Tang behind Yu Qirong, turned around and led the way.

Yu Qirong followed in, and Su Tang followed in too.

There was also a well in Old Sun's yard, with the same patterns carved on it as the one in Old Uncle Xu's yard. When Yu Qirong walked past the well, he heard some unusual movements underground.

He and Su Tang looked at each other and walked into the house together.

The woman lit a small oil lamp. There were a pile of sacrificial items on the wooden table, and a bag full of golden paper ingots. Yu Qirong had never seen them before, so he stared at them.

"It seems a bit messy." The woman put everything on the table into the bag and asked Yu Qirong and Su Tang to sit down. She looked at the moon outside through the window and said, "Just ask whatever you want to ask."

Yu Qirong noticed her action and looked at the sky outside through the window.

The moon at night was exceptionally bright, illuminating almost the entire yard. The white color seemed to add a bit of snow to the entire Huangsha Village.

The lunar eclipse hasn't started yet.

"I heard them say that dying today is a happy event and that one can gain eternal life. Why are you crying?" Yu Qirong asked.

The woman was probably tired of crying. Yu Qirong's straightforward question failed to arouse her emotions. On the contrary, her reaction could be described as calm: "It is not easy for mortals to talk about immortality. They believe in the legend of the Moon God, but I don't."

"The last time they talked about the miracle happening, I hadn't married into the village yet, but the whole village, including my husband, believed in the legend. They even thought that my questioning was blasphemy against the Moon God and wanted to get angry with me."

"I said if immortality is real, then why do people in the village keep dying? They sneered and said it was because they were unlucky and died at the wrong time."

Yu Qirong noticed this "wrong time" and had heard it in the crowd before. If you die, you die. How can there be right or wrong?

Yu Qirong pinched the dragon hook jade hanging on her wrist, her eyelashes slightly lowered, hiding the emotions and calculations in her eyes: "When?"

"Before the lunar eclipse." The woman calmed herself down and continued her narration.

"Until one lunar eclipse, I saw a resurrection from the dead with my own eyes."

Yu Qirong couldn't say that he didn't believe in resurrection. After all, in his opinion, it was normal for someone to be able to talk to him and attend classes with him normally after death.

But he knew that since the woman had seen it and still didn't believe it, there must be something fishy going on.

"Those who came back weren't human at all!" The woman seemed to recall something, her face twisted with fear, "Their personalities changed drastically, they became brutal and irritable, and even ate people!"

She nervously tore at her cotton jacket, her hands clenched together nervously, her eyes fixed on one spot, as if recalling something: "...then they will become a well."

"..." Yu Qirong paused and looked at the well in the yard outside the house. The well, which originally looked normal, suddenly became indescribable.

"If it was just a real well, it would be fine, but they have mouths that can speak, ears that can hear, and eyes that can see."

The corner of Yu Qirong's eye twitched, and he suddenly remembered that he and other players had made rubbings on the well.

I felt that I didn't say anything to stop them and they got scared. It was because the Xu family had a particularly good temper.

"We heard from Xu Zhai that anyone who drinks the water from the well is a believer of the Moon God and can gain eternal life. What's going on?" Yu Qirong asked.

Hearing Xu Zhai's name, the woman seemed to shrink back in fear, her face turned pale, and her whole body trembled: "Xu Zhai, he is the son of the Moon God they all recognize... because he has been reborn and has not turned into a well."

Yu Qirong thought back to Xu Zhai and was surprised to find that she didn't see any difference in his appearance, so she asked, "Why didn't he turn into a well?"

"Starting from the day of the lunar eclipse, all those who have drunk water from the well will be granted a temporary state of immortality, that is, immortality. People can be killed and resurrected infinitely, so people will start a hunt, and whoever kills the most people will become the son of the Moon God."

"In this case, those who died and resurrected before the lunar eclipse may have the upper hand because they have obtained the unparalleled power granted by the moon god."

It turns out that this is the true meaning of blessing. Eternal life is real, and becoming the nourishment for the Son of God next month is also real.

Yu Qirong walked out of Xu's house. The moon outside was so big that it made people's hearts flutter, and it was too white, which reminded people of the whiteness of a dead person.

The moonlight made the parts of Yu Qirong's face that were not covered by the bone mask pale. He put on the hat on his cotton-padded jacket, and a circle of fur surrounded his face, making him look childishly cute.

He wanted to find someone to talk to about his ideas, and Su Tang seemed to read his mind. He took a step forward and walked to his side.

There was still no emotion on Su Tang's face, as if what the woman had just said had nothing to do with him, as if he was not the nourishment for the "Son of the Moon Goddess" in the story.

Yu Qirong particularly appreciated this kind of cold temperament. He slightly side-glanced to look at Su Tang's profile as he pursed his lips indifferently. The color of his thin lips was very light.

"Escape from Huangsha Village, it seems to mean surviving in Huangsha Village." Yu Qirong turned and walked forward, looking down at his feet, analyzing as he walked: "The people in Huangsha Village may not be human anymore, but even though the players drank the water from the well, the infection is not that serious. If they really believe the nonsense of resurrection from the dead, they will really die in the dungeon."

This is a trap in the background of the story. People cannot come back to life after the death, but ghosts can.

Su Tang said "hmm", as if he was affirming Yu Qirong's idea, but also as if he didn't hear anything and was just responding casually to Yu Qirong's words.

Yu Qirong was not sure which one it was, because Su Tang seemed to be looking at him all the time, as if every second he looked at him would be a second less, and he didn't want him to leave Su Tang's sight for even a second.

As for Su Tang, even though he was caught peeking at Yu Qirong, he did not choose to look away. His cold and deep eyes were still staring at Yu Qirong. There was not even moonlight in his dark pupils, only Yu Qirong's reflection.

"..." Yu Qirong felt her heart pounding when she looked into his eyes. She also felt that she was not very friendly towards Tang Xingfei who had not yet responded.

Emotionally, he has always been very loyal.

So Yu Qirong withdrew his gaze and quickly returned to Xu's house.

This time he took another look at the Xu family's well, with some complicated emotions in his eyes.

It really looks like an ordinary well. Who would have thought that it was originally a person?

Their situations are actually similar, they are all NPCs, so who is nobler than who? It's just that he is relatively lucky and was arranged to go to school.

Yu Qirong told the others what he had heard from the Xu family, but concealed his own analysis and acted as a conscientious messenger.

After hearing this story, the players all looked unhappy. Lin Siyue even leaned over the window to take a look at the well outside. The makeup on her face couldn't hide her pale expression of lingering fear.

"Is this mission meant to turn us into monsters?"

Lin Siyue looked at the well outside the window and murmured in a deliberately low voice. The deliberately lowered voice was hoarse and crazy, which did not ease the atmosphere in the room, but made it even more tense.

No one answered, but Lin Siyue became even more agitated. The feeling of being tortured to death was not pleasant. She had no place to vent her anger, so she turned around and saw the wine cup at hand.

Bang——

Lin Siyue couldn't sit still anymore, so she stood up from her chair and pushed the blue and white porcelain wine cup on the table to the ground. It made a loud noise, but it didn't break.

Yu Qirong raised his eyelids and watched the wine cup with blue and white porcelain pattern painted on it roll to his feet and stop.

The sound was not small, and it seemed even louder in the quiet room, startling the other people sitting there.

"Are you good enough?" Li Yinggui, who usually doesn't talk much, suddenly stood up and spoke in a rough and loud voice, which scared Lin Siyue. "Xiao Tao and I hired you to help us pass the level with our points. It's fine that you are completely helpless in the face of the mission, but what are you doing now? Are you furious and helpless?"

Lin Siyue's eyes were bloodshot, her body trembled twice, and her voice became louder: "You think it's easy to bring a book, who doesn't risk their lives to accompany you into the book?"

"Then return the points!" Li Yinggui refused to give in. He pointed at Lin Siyue's nose and cursed: "My points are worse than feeding them to the dogs! You still want to take 100% of the basic points for passing the level? It's just that Xiaotao has a good temper and doesn't want to fall out with you. I think this is no different from us going there ourselves!"

Lin Siyue was so angry that she was shaking after being scolded. She looked at Meng Chan and Fu Yi. The two of them actually lowered their heads in embarrassment. They probably really couldn't think of any solution.

Yu Qirong was feeling a little sleepy at first, but after hearing the points, he perked up and looked at Li Yinggui and Lu Tao thoughtfully.

Xiang Yang came to Yu Qirong's side. He was actually a little regretful now. He was too arrogant to come to the S-level dungeon without doing his homework. It was like he was going to die. Yu Qirong was always with Su Tang, which made him feel even weirder.

He wanted to suggest following Yu Qirong several times, but was scared back by Su Tang's murderous look. This time, he also got close to Yu Qirong under tremendous psychological pressure.

As soon as he got close to Yu Qirong, Xiang Yang saw Yu Qirong's lips under the bone mask open and uttered a sentence: "Give me 90% of the points you get from clearing the level, and I will help you clear the level."

“???” Xiangyang widened his eyes and looked at Yu Qirong in disbelief.

Yu Qirong glanced at him and felt that this was not a good idea, so he hesitated and bargained: "You are entering the game with me, so it will be 50%, and others who want to enter the game must take 90%."

No, it’s not a question of how many points you have.

Xiangyang was scratching his head. He was not sure if Yu Qi was too ignorant. This was an S-level level game, with many variables and a very high degree of difficulty. How could he boast that he could lead the team through it? Didn't he see Fu Yi, who had passed it more than ten times, still have no idea?

"How many times have you passed the level?" Lin Siyue asked coldly.

"Once." Yu Qirong looked at her and answered.

"Then how can you make us believe that what you said is true?" Lin Siyue looked at him with suspicion.

Yu Qirong snorted lightly, revealing a somewhat amused expression: "It's up to you whether you believe it or not."

It's hard to tell from his look whether he really has the ability or is just bluffing.

Lin Siyue and her group were still considering it, but they saw Su Tang, who had been standing silently beside them, suddenly move. He walked to Yu Qirong and said in a slightly cold voice: "I believe it. I am willing to give you all the basic points for passing this level."

When he said this, his voice was not heavy, but it gave people an inexplicable sense of weight. But listening to the content of his words, it was unbelievable, that was 100,000 points!

He just gave it to me like that?

Before Yu Qirong could say anything, Su Tang reached out and grabbed Yu Qirong's wrist. The force he used was not very strong, but Yu Qirong could not break free.

Su Tang blocked other people's sight with his body, and gently stroked the pure white dragon hook jade on Yu Qirong's wrist with his fingers. The dragon hook jade flashed a silver-white light, and Yu Qirong received a points donation message from the system, and a full 100,000 points were credited to his account.

Su Tang loosened his hand. No one could have imagined that he had such a gentlemanly attitude. His finger just now slightly hooked Yu Qirong's little finger, and his nails scratched it slightly. This time it was either an illusion or a blatant tease.

Yu Qirong looked at Su Tang with vigilance on the surface, but secretly sighed in his heart: Tang Xingfei, ah Tang Xingfei, the road to pursuing you is too hard. If I meet someone else who is also good-looking and pursues you fanatically, it is only natural to give up pursuing you, right?

No one else knew what Yu Qirong was thinking. They only saw Su Tang turn around and announce to everyone: "I have already given the promised 100,000 points to Yu...Qi in advance."

How can this be possible?

Xiang Yang secretly groaned in his heart. He had long discovered that Su Tang would most likely become a love rival. However, this love rival was too strong. He just started to add points to where Yu Qi needed them, and also showed his loyalty by the way.

But how could he lose?

Xiang Yang gritted his teeth and immediately said to Yu Qirong: "I believe you too! 50% of the points, right? I don't have the points to pay you now... I will definitely give it to you after the dungeon is out!"

Just as he finished speaking, a piece of white paper was thrown in his face, interrupting his continued confession of loyalty.

Xiangyang grabbed the paper and looked at the person who threw it to him, but saw Su Tang's face as cold as ice, and said coldly: "Write an IOU."

There are also such props for establishing contracts in the points store, but they are limited to props
