It was not dangerous, of course, not dangerous for Yu Qirong. When he led his men to the bottom of the dormitory building, which looked particularly dilapidated due to years of disrepair, a cold wind blew, and something fell down with a loud noise.
Bang—the four of them shuddered at the same time.
The floor of the dormitory building was a damp wooden floor, sticky and wet as if it was stained with some unknown liquid. It made one's scalp tingle when walking on it.
Watching Yu Qirong moving forward as if walking on flat ground, the four people couldn't help swallowing their saliva as they looked at the corridor that seemed like a black hole that could swallow people.
Yu Qirong took two steps and seemed to sense something. He turned around and saw that the four people were very far away from him, with expressions of fear and shock.
"Let's go."
The white-haired beauty put her hands in her pockets, turned around and called out to them, with such a natural expression as if the dormitory in front of them was not a haunted dormitory, but an ordinary high school dormitory.
Lu Pingsha took a step forward first, and the wooden floor immediately made a creaking sound, which was particularly creepy in the silent environment.
Yu Qirong's brows furrowed slightly and he walked towards this side slowly.
Lu Pingsha, who had been paying close attention to Yu Qirong, suddenly broke out in a thin layer of sweat on his forehead. Maybe he had accidentally violated some school rules...
"You seem a little heavy." The young man walked over and stared at the wooden board under Lu Pingsha's feet. Then, as if confirming something, he moved his gaze to Lu Pingsha's face and said, "You should lose weight."
Lu Pingsha: “…”
Yu Qirong turned around and said, "Hurry up and follow me. I can't save you if something happens late at night."
When he reached the required floor, Yu Qirong stopped in front of a dormitory door and knocked on it.
There were no footsteps on the other side of the door, but after a moment the door opened by itself. Yu Qirong pushed the door open without stopping and walked into the room.
Although they didn't know what was going on, the four of them followed him into the room. The room looked clean and tidy. The bed was a bunk bed, and the rusty iron guardrail looked a bit old. Yu Qirong turned around and looked at the four people: "Why did you follow me in?"
Lu Pingsha's forehead vein jumped: "Where are we going if we don't follow you?"
"Go find your own beds." Yu Qirong said matter-of-factly. He showed the four of them his student ID card and said, "My bed is here today."
"Why didn't you say so earlier?" Lu Pingsha quickly opened his student ID card and looked for his bed information on it.
Yu Qirong's bed was on the lower bunk, and he sat down on it naturally, without any sense of nervousness or regret for what he had done: "It's not too late to talk about it now."
After knowing Yu Qirong's NPC identity, Lu Pingsha no longer had any special reaction to his attitude. After all, they had signed the agreement, and this good-looking NPC in front of them would not harm them.
"603, mine is here too." Lu Pingsha confirmed his room number, glanced at the other people with different expressions, and asked Yu Qirong tentatively: "Can't we live together?"
Yu Qirong looked listless and yawned. Her red eyes, as bright as water, swept across Lu Pingsha. Her lazy demeanor was like a cat stretching. "But I'm not used to sleeping with others."
"..." Lu Pingsha stared at Yu Qirong. It was a fantasy in itself to let a high-risk NPC care about players like them. However, perhaps because of Yu Qirong's appearance, Lu Pingsha felt that he would change his mind.
Yu Qirong didn't want to let these people disturb his sleep, but when he looked up and saw Xu Yanan who had just handed him the medicine powder, his heart changed for some reason.
"Okay," Yu Qirong said, "Just register your student ID at the door... but don't disturb my sleep."
"Are there any taboos at night?" Lu Pingsha took a deep breath and asked.
Yu Qirong thought for a moment, and then instructed the four brothers from whom he had just received protection money: "Don't look in the mirror, don't answer the phone... Most importantly, don't disturb my sleep."
“But do I have to break school rules to complete the exploration value—” Lu Pingsha’s voice stopped abruptly, and the only sound in the room was Yu Qirong’s long and peaceful breathing.
Apparently, he had fallen asleep.
"..." Lu Pingsha was speechless, but he kept in mind Yu Qirong's three denominations, so he suppressed his anger and found a bed to lie down on.
Everyone else registered and started looking for their own beds. Although there were two men and two women among the four people, it was obvious that such a thing was a trivial matter in the mission world.
The dormitory was a six-person room. No one dared to sleep on the upper bunk where Yu Qirong was. Bai Shi didn't dare to sleep on the upper bunk, so she switched with Lu Pingsha and the two girls squeezed into one bed.
The points mall can be used to redeem food and drinks, but we were afraid of causing unnecessary trouble by going to the toilet, so the four of us only used a little and didn't dare to use more.
I made do with it simply, then closed my eyes and went to sleep.
But not everyone has the ability to fall asleep the moment they lie down like Yu Qirong.
The room was so quiet that you could not hear anything except the sound of breathing.
Lu Pingsha tried his best not to pay attention to how many people were breathing in the room. Even if there were a few more or fewer, it would only add to his troubles.
He was lying on the upper bunk opposite Yu Qirong's bed. Looking down, he could see Yu Qirong's chest rising and falling slightly.
Yu Qirong seemed even more fragile while sleeping. His neck and wrists were completely white, and some blue veins could be seen. His white hair seemed to have a snowy luster, and the arm that he had injured in the afternoon was completely unrecognizable.
Lu Pingsha turned over, lay on his side and looked at Yu Qirong intently.
This Lanxi ghost school is only of B grade, but are there NPCs that can understand human nature and communicate?
Even when he was asleep, Yu Qirong still treasured the dragon hook jade on his wrist very much and would hold it in his hand even when he slept.
Although Lu Pingsha couldn't see what was in Yu Qirong's hand from his angle, he could definitely guess what it was.
Generally speaking, NPCs will have their own settings, and maybe this NPC also has its own story... I just don't know what to do with their points.
At some point, everyone in the room gradually fell asleep, until suddenly a rapid and strange ringing sounded in the room.
The ringing sound seemed to be playing in their ears, old and unforgettable, the clanging sound was hoarse and intermittent, like a bunch of discordant notes.
Lu Pingsha suddenly opened his eyes, sat up, and found that his cell phone was actually placed next to his ear. The ringtone was still ringing persistently, and it seemed that it would not stop unless he answered it.
He looked down and saw that the other three were indeed awake, with each of them holding a cell phone to their ears and looking at him with terrified eyes.
Except for Yu Qirong who was sleeping soundly.
Before going to bed, Yu Qirong told people not to disturb his sleep and not to answer the phone, so Lu Pingsha had no choice but to plug his ears with his hands to physically block out the ringing sound.
But obviously this method didn't work, the ringtone seemed to be playing on a loop in his brain, with no sign of stopping at all.
Lu Pingsha even felt a little envious of Yu Qirong who was sleeping unconsciously.
He glanced at the screen of his mobile phone. There was no incoming call number displayed, but the call indicator was still on. It was obviously not a normal creature calling him.
He reached out to press the hang-up button, but his finger stopped in mid-air.
What if he clicked to hang up, but this ghost thought he answered the call?
So Lu Pingsha withdrew his hand again, and the shadow of his finger left a shadow on the bright screen. He immediately felt the piercing pain in his finger, and the system prompted that the task progress had increased.
It's a mirror.
To be on the safe side, before going to bed, they specially looked for everything in the dormitory that could reflect light except mirrors, but the only thing they left out was the mobile phone screen.
It can't be said that they were left behind. After all, when they knew that there might be a call, they put the phone in the place farthest from the bed.
Unexpectedly, I ended up returning to my pillow.
Just one finger was illuminated, and Lu Pingsha felt so painful that he almost banged his head against the wall.
The finger had swelled and turned purple, and Lu Pingsha could clearly feel that part of his finger bone had been shattered.
It is not difficult to imagine whether a person can still survive if the face is photographed.
Yu Qirong was still sleeping, but his brows seemed to be furrowed and his nose wrinkled, probably because he also heard the annoying ringtone.
The ringing in my ear not only did not die down because no one answered, but it became even louder.
Lu Pingsha no longer cared about the ringing sound. The pain was torturing his mind. He couldn't even use the powder he exchanged for points to heal himself - the kind that only worked on wounds.
In a daze, he heard the sound of clothes rubbing against each other from the lower bunk opposite, and then the bed beside his ear bounced back slightly, and someone took something away from him.
He forced his eyes open, only to see Yu Qirong placing four mobile phones on the table and tapping on them one by one.
The movement was so fast that it didn't even leave a shadow in the mirror image, and perhaps the mirror ghost couldn't see it clearly.
Suddenly, the sound of a woman crying came from the speaker of the mobile phone, which was so shrill and creepy that it gave people goose bumps.
"I'm so miserable..."
"I'm so miserable... come and keep me company..."
The voice in the loudspeaker was interrupted by Yu Qirong before he finished speaking. He had an extremely bad temper when he woke up, and especially couldn't stand someone disturbing his sleep.
"Shut up!" The beautiful woman, whose face was as red as spring flowers, narrowed her eyes slightly, opened her red and upturned lips slightly, and uttered a string of words in a complaining tone: "Why are you making so much noise in the middle of the night? Can't you let me sleep?"
"..." The person on the other end of the phone seemed to be silent, and no word came out for a short while.
“If you call me again and block me, I will dig up your grave. Don’t think I don’t know who you are!” After saying this, Yu Qirong hung up four phones at the same speed, then angrily returned to his bed, lay down and closed his eyes.
After a while, Yu Qirong's soothing breathing sound could be heard from the bed again.
The other three people were simultaneously notified that their mission progress had improved.
The ringing really never rang again, as if the person on the other end was really afraid that Yu Qirong would dig up his grave.
...As expected of a high-risk NPC, he can even threaten ghosts.
