Chapter 173: Planting Pears from a Chinese Studio

Gulp gulp——

The water was boiling, and the steam pushed the lid of the kettle up, making a "whooshing" sound.

Old man Zhang dug out a few old-fashioned enameled iron cups.

Pour hot water on them.

The players held the warm enamel cups and drank the steaming water bit by bit.

This feeling is so warm that it warms your bones.

Moreover, there is a faint sweet taste in the boiled water.

After a few players drank it, a prompt for a horror game popped up in front of them.

【Drinking snow mountain spring can improve your physical fitness by 0.001. 】

This unexpected surprise made them drink even more enthusiastically.

I want to trigger another physical fitness improvement.

This snow-capped mountain is truly a treasure land.

Not only can you pick up horror props, but you can also drink tea that improves your physical fitness.

It is true that the greater the risk, the greater the reward.

But unfortunately, this prompt only appears after the first few sips.

Moreover, not every player's physical fitness has improved.

People like Su Ming and Zhan Shen have relatively strong physical fitness.

After drinking the tea, I received no more reminders.

Su Ming and Old Man Zhang were chatting happily.

It can be seen that, probably because no one has been here for a long time, this old man Zhang is very interested in chatting.

Old Man Zhang: "...I know about your snow-climbing group."

"I remember that a few years ago, people from your group also came here."

"There was a young man who left a deep impression on me. He often said, 'No one can help me reach the top of the mountain, but I will climb the snow to the top.'"

"He sounds quite impressive, a very spirited young man!"

"I don't know if he succeeded in the end, and whether he made it to the top of the mountain..."

"Come to think of it, why is it that all the people who come to my place are going up the mountain? I have never seen any team going down the mountain?"

Old man Zhang frowned slightly and seemed quite confused about this question.

Su Ming thought that was because all the teams that went up the mountain died on the mountain.

There is no way he can get down from the mountain alive.

Of course, he wouldn't say such things directly.

Su Ming: "If we go down the mountain, there should be other special routes."

“Just like us, the lines going up the mountain and going down the mountain are different.”

Old man Zhang suddenly realized: "So that's how it is! Now it makes sense!"

"I've been worried about this for a long time! Hahahahaha!!"

He looked out the window and said, "It's getting dark now."

"You might as well rest here for one night, and then come back tomorrow morning to replenish firewood and continue climbing."

The players looked outside the cabin and it was still broad daylight.

I really wanted to ask Old Man Zhang how he could tell that it was dark.

Su Ming agreed directly: "Okay, sorry to bother Uncle Zhang tonight."

Since the boss said so, they had no objection.

It would be quite comfortable to rest for a while in such a warm wooden house.

Put down the luggage on your back and spread out your bedding.

The players began to rest.

Su Ming reminded in a low voice: "No matter what happens later, you can open your eyes and watch, don't move, don't make any sound."

Hearing his words, the players' hearts suddenly lifted.

What was going to happen? I was so worried that I couldn't fall asleep.

At first, nothing happened.

Until the players let down their guard and were half asleep and half awake.

Boom boom boom——

A heavy knock on the door woke them up completely.

But they still followed Su Ming's instructions and didn't make any sound.

I saw Old Man Zhang sitting up from the bed and then turning over.

Smear the past to open the door.

His state was somewhat strange, as if in his eyes, the surroundings had really entered darkness.

He muttered, "It's so late, why is there still someone knocking on the door..."

When he opened the door.

The players looking over there all had their pupils shrink and their faces were filled with surprise.

There were two familiar figures standing outside the door.

They were the two Lucheng players who had been frozen to death and had just been buried in the snow by Su Ming and his team. They were Lao Wang and Brother Gou.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

They stood outside the door, their eyes closed, their faces purple, not looking alive at all.

There was still a lot of snow on his clothes, as if he had crawled out of the snow.

Seeing this, Old Man Zhang said, "You are a guest from afar, come in and have a seat."

As he said that, he opened the door and let in the bodies of Lao Wang and Brother Gou.

This kind of operation made the players shudder with fear.

The old man Zhang in front of me is indeed not a normal person.

If a normal person saw such a weird scene, he would definitely be scared to death. How could he let the other person in?

For a moment, this warm wooden cabin was filled with a strange atmosphere.

After letting them in, Lao Wang and Brother Gou lay down next to Zhang Tieshu.

Feeling the coldness beside him, Zhang Tieshu groaned inwardly, thinking to himself, why did you two brothers have to find me, why not find anyone else?

Old man Zhang didn't say anything else. He went back to bed and continued to sleep.

After a while, there was another knock on the door.

He got out of bed and opened the door again, only to see several frozen bodies outside.

Old Man Zhang: "You heard that there were new people, so you came here to welcome them?"

"Okay, then I'll leave them to you. Help them integrate into their new living environment as quickly as possible."

"Well, they are in there, along with a few of their companions, but they are still alive."

"You haven't been here for a long time, come in and take a rest."

Then, several corpses walked in from the door.

They stood straight in front of Su Ming and the others, like tourists visiting the zoo to see the animals.

The temperature in the wooden house began to drop slowly because of their presence.

Being stared at by several frozen corpses, the players felt their scalps tingling and they felt uncomfortable all over.

Those players who woke up remembered what Su Ming had told them, that they should pretend to be asleep and not make any sound, so none of them made any sound. They simply made up their minds, closed their eyes, and thought, out of sight, out of mind.

They had already made up their minds that as long as Boss Su Ming didn't call them, they would keep their eyes closed and not care what happened outside.

But as expected, something went wrong.

Among the ten players present, one fell asleep and was then woken up by the gradually decreasing temperature in the cabin.

He opened his eyes and saw several stiff corpses staring at him. His mind went blank and the last word he uttered was "Oh shit".

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, his face turned pale and he realized that something bad had happened.

However, it was impossible to take back what I said.

The other players also felt their hearts wrenched, secretly cursing their teammates for being stupid.

But they still kept calm, did not move, continued to pretend to be asleep, and did not even open their eyes.

The player watched as several frozen corpses approached him.

Several cold hands pressed against his body, causing his consciousness to gradually become blurred.

However, before he died, he saw that he was the only one in trouble and his teammates were not implicated, so he felt relieved.

It's a blessing in disguise.

At least my mistake did not affect other players, otherwise I would have died.
