Chapter 4 Guide 04



Wen Qing searched carefully again, this time even turning over the folded towel to take a look, but there was no underwear.

If you can't find any underwear in this room, there must be some in other rooms.

There are only two bedrooms on the second floor, and the other one is likely to have been occupied by Yu Xing, so he doesn't want to go there.

On the third floor...

It was impossible for Wen Qing to go to the girls' room to look for men's underwear, so the only room left was Teacher Ji and the basketball uniform's room.

The basketball player seems to have a bad temper. I wonder if he will be angry about this kind of thing.

After hesitating for a moment, Wen Qing decided to go to the third floor to borrow underwear from Teacher Ji.

Unfortunately, plans cannot keep up with changes.

Wen Qing opened the door and took a step outside, when Gong Yunyun who was passing by grabbed his arm.

"Wen Qing, you came just in time. We have made a new discovery."

Gong Yunyun pulled Wen Qing towards the study at the end of the corridor.

Wen Qing struggled twice, but Gong Yunyun was very strong, so he had to use his other hand to hold up his bathrobe to avoid exposing himself.

"Wait, wait a minute, I have something else to do."

Gong Yunyun paused and turned to look at Wen Qing: "What's the matter?"

Wen Qing thought for a moment and pointed to the bathrobe on his body: "It's not suitable for me to wear it like this. There are many girls here."

Gong Yunyun burst out laughing: "What era is this? Don't look down on us girls."

"I've seen all kinds of them. I've painted quite a few male nude models. Your bathrobe even covers your calves. Don't be shy."

Wen Qing thought, you have painted male nude models, but I have never been a male nude model.

He used to wear short-sleeved shirt and shorts even when sleeping in the dormitory, and never went shirtless. Not to mention that now he feels empty under his bathrobe and feels insecure.

Gong Yunyun pulled Wen Qing directly to the door of the study. Wen Qing looked inside and saw that everyone was inside, except for the basketball uniforms.

There are too many people.

Wen Qing pulled into her bathrobe, blushing slightly and said, "Well, I, I want to go to the bathroom."

If you can't find your underwear, just put on some other pants first.

Gong Yunyun saw at once that this was an excuse and immediately said, "Please bear with it for a while and wait for everyone to finish discussing it."

"You can't let everyone wait for you alone, right?"

These words touched upon Wen Qing's feeling of being embarrassed to trouble others. He hesitated for a few seconds, then pulled on his bathrobe and walked into the study.

"Wen Qing is here," Gong Yunyun glanced around and said to everyone, "Now the only one left is the handsome guy in the basketball uniform. He said he wants to take a shower. Let's discuss it first and don't wait for him."

"Why not come?" the short-haired girl whispered.

Gong Yunyun curled her lips: "Who knows, maybe he doesn't care about finding the guide."

Anyone who doesn't care about finding the guide is likely to be the guide himself.

Hearing the hint in the words, Wen Qing frowned slightly.

There were only four chairs in the study, just enough for four girls to sit on. Wen Qing walked to the wall, leaned her back against it, and barely felt a little safe.

He lowered his head to tighten the straps of his bathrobe. A large, bony hand suddenly appeared beside the straps, pretending to untie them. Wen Qing was so scared that he quickly dodged.

The corners of his bathrobe rose as he walked, revealing two white and tender calves. There was no leg hair, and the skin was delicate, like solidified fat.

Yu Xing blew a long whistle.

A whistle sounded, and the two girls who had not noticed this scene turned their heads to look at Wen Qing.

The bathrobe had completely covered his legs, with only his small protruding ankles exposed to the air. His skin was very thin, and the pale blue meridians were unusually clear, giving off a fresh aura.

For some reason, even the girls felt a little thirsty.

Wen Qing shrank his feet and nervously grasped his bathrobe.

Didn't he just show off?

It was clearly Yu Xing who was whistling, why were everyone looking at him?

After a while, Zhou Zhou came back to his senses and said, "Now that everyone is here, I will tell you about my new discovery."

He walked to the bookshelf and pointed to the two shelves with Chinese and English books: "I said before that the Chinese and English books in the study are mainly about religion and theology."

"I was wrong. It's not mainly about, every book here is about theology, religion."

Realizing that everyone's eyes were not on him, Wen Qing slowly raised his head and looked towards the bookshelf.

"General Theory of Eastern Mythology", "Chinese Mythology and Legends"...

There are also several books in English, such as "History of Western Mythology" and "Norse Mythology"...

Wen Qing glanced at the other bookshelves again and saw all kinds of tadpole-shaped characters that he didn't recognize.

Gong Yunyun continued, "Because of my major, I have come into contact with some religious paintings. Although I cannot understand the words in the books on other bookshelves, the illustrations are all about various religious theologies."

"And when the game started, the system also said that this was a God Clan instance."

God's copy, theology...the clues seem to point to the three people who possess the god cards.

Wen Qing blinked and looked at Yu Xing cautiously.

Yu Xing stared at him with a smile on his face. After catching Wen Qing's gaze, he whistled nonchalantly.

Wen Qing glared at him and turned to look at the other person in the study who had a divine tablet - Ji Yu.

Zhou Zhou got straight to the point and said, "I now have some doubts that the word 'guide' is blurring the message."

"The system doesn't say that the guide must be human. He could be a god. Maybe the guide is a code name for a god in some mythology."

"Of course, this is just my guess. I can only be sure of one thing: the guide is related to the gods."

Wen Qing nodded in agreement. It sounded reasonable.

"Does anyone have anything to say?" Zhou Zhou asked.

Several people's eyes were on Ji Yu and Yu Xing.

The other person holding the divine tablet didn't even show his face, so the three people holding the divine tablet were indeed very suspicious.

After a long while, no one spoke.

"Then let me say a few words."

Ji Yu smiled gently and said to everyone: "What Zhou Zhou said makes sense."

"I also think that the Way Guide is related to the God Clan, but my idea is that the God Card is similar to the witch. Maybe under certain conditions, it can do some sight."

"After all, the suffix of guide is 'people'. If these three words are meaningless, they can be replaced with another irrelevant pronoun to further blur the message."

Wen Qing nodded like a little chicken pecking at rice.

Yeah, that makes sense.

What the teacher said makes sense.

The air was quiet again as everyone digested the new information.

Wen Qing too.

Suddenly, Yu Xing's voice rang in his ears.

"Do you believe whatever people say?"

His voice was low and hoarse, with a hint of laughter in his tone, as if he was deliberately trying to seduce people: "What if this Zhou Zhou is the guide? He is deliberately trying to confuse people."

Wen Qing's eyelashes trembled, and she tilted her head to meet Yu Xing's eyes. There was a smile in his words, but there was no smile in his eyes, only a hint of interest.

He looks like he's enjoying the fun.

Wen Qing moved to the side, away from Yu Xing.

Yu Xing followed closely: "Doesn't what I said make sense?"

Wen Qing ignored him and walked quickly towards Ji Yu.

Seeing this, Yu Xing stopped and looked at them from a distance.

Wen let out a breath.

"It's ten o'clock now. The system will give clues in two hours." Zhou Zhou glanced at the clock in the study and pinched his nose. "Everyone, take a rest."

Wen Qing waited quietly for everyone to leave.

Seeing that Zhou Zhou and Yu Xing had no intention of leaving the study, he stood on tiptoe, leaned close to Ji Yu's ear, and said in a low voice: "Teacher, can I go to your room to borrow some clothes?"

Ji Yu curved his lips and said, "Of course."

"If you're in a hurry, go upstairs first. I'll be right there."

"Okay." Wen nodded.

He was anxious, very anxious.

Wen Qing hurriedly left the study and went up to the third floor.

Immediately afterwards, Yu Xing and Ji Yu walked out of the study one after another.

The two walked to the stairs, stood a certain distance apart, and looked at the reddish-brown door downstairs together.

“The game is really fun.”

“It’s quite interesting.”

*****

Wen Qing walked up to the third floor and realized belatedly that he had forgotten to ask Teacher Ji which room he would sleep in.

He took two steps forward and heard girls talking in the rooms on both sides, so he continued walking inside.

The doors of the other two bedrooms were closed, so Wen Qing simply knocked on the door of the bedroom on the right.

“Boom—”

After knocking once, the half-closed door was opened.

There was someone in the room. A man was standing by the window, wrapped only in a bath towel. His upper body was naked, his wheat-colored muscles glistening with water.

It's a basketball uniform.

Wen Qing didn't know his name, so after a moment's hesitation, he asked in a low voice, "Um... No. 23, do you live in the same room with the teacher?"

The man turned his head to look at him, not sure whether he was responding to No. 23 or the teacher. After a while, he said unhappily, "No."

Wen Qing responded and couldn't help thinking, it's really brave of him to have a room by himself.

He quickly said, "I'm sorry, I went the wrong way."

"I'm going to find the teacher."

Just before closing the door, the man spoke with a hint of disdain in his tone: "What do you want from him?"

Wen Qing said truthfully: "Borrow some clothes."

The man raised his eyelids and looked at him deeply, his brows still impatient: "Get it yourself."

Wen Qing opened his mouth. Just as he didn't want to trouble others, he was also not good at rejecting other people's kindness.

"Then I'll take it."

He whispered and walked to the closet.

As soon as I opened it, I saw the neatly folded underwear in the corner.

Wen Qing pursed her lips, recalling the first time she checked the room.

It seemed to be placed in this location, why can't I find it suddenly?

Wen Qing thought while looking at the size of the underwear. They were all the same size.

Two sizes larger than his.

A little bigger is better than nothing.

Wen Qing sighed in his heart, took two pairs of underwear, and picked up a T-shirt to cover it up, and said to No. 23: "Okay, thank you."

He walked to the door, paused, turned around and asked, "Can I ask your name?"

The man glanced at him coldly.

Wen Qing said weakly: "It's okay if you don't say it."

He doesn't mind continuing to call number 23.

"Sikong."

"My name is Wen Qing."

When Wen Qing was going downstairs carrying the clothes, he happened to meet Ji Yu.

Anxious to go back and put on his underwear, he spoke faster and said, "Teacher, I borrowed some clothes from Sikong, so I'll go back first."

After saying that, he went downstairs without looking back.

Ji Yu smiled and said to the air: "That's a pity."

Back in the bedroom, Zhou Zhou washed up in the bathroom.

Wen Qing closed the door and quickly put on his underwear.

Although it was a bit big, it gave him enough sense of security.

Wen Qing's tense nerves finally relaxed. He lay down on the bed and let out a long sigh.

Zhou Zhou walked out of the bathroom and glanced at Wen Qing: "Gong Yunyun and I are looking for clues in the study."

Wen Qing responded, buried his head in his pillow and said in a muffled voice: "I want to sleep for a while."

"Okay, I'll call you then."

"OK."

Wen Qing crawled into the quilt. Too many things happened today, making him physically and mentally exhausted. Soon, he fell into a deep sleep.

****

“Tick-t ...”

As it approaches twelve o'clock, the sound of the second hand turning becomes clearer and clearer, making it difficult to concentrate on reading.

Zhou Zhou simply closed the mythology book in his hand.

Besides him, there were Gong Yunyun, Ji Yu and a short-haired girl named Chen Yiyi in the study.

When there were two minutes left, Zhou Zhou stood up and said, "Time's up."

"I'll go to the room and call Wen Qing."

Gong Yunyun responded, "That basketball jersey from God seems to still be on the third floor. I'll go call him. Wang Jing and Li Siwenwen should already be downstairs."

"good."

Just as the three of them reached the door of the study, the system's voice suddenly rang out, and they all stopped at the same time.

[Looking for friends,

Find a good friend,

Salute and shake hands,

You are my good friend. 】

These four simple sentences were sung twice.

【Now posting the guide clues. 】

【Please pay attention, players. Please pay attention, players. 】

【Five, four, three, two, one.】

The system's sound was like an alarm. Everyone had a bad feeling and their hearts were hanging in their throats.

“Click—”

The door lock turns.

Zhou Zhou stared at the door.

The system only says that clues are released, but does not say where they come from.

With a creak, the door opened.

Wen Qing rubbed his eyes and walked out.

Zhou Zhou suddenly breathed a sigh of relief: "I was just about to call you."

Wen Qing heard the system sound in a daze and climbed out of bed.

Seeing three people with serious expressions not far away, Wen Qing rubbed his eyes to make sure that the voice just now was not his hallucination.

Is the time up?

Before he could ask the question, a shrill scream suddenly came from downstairs.

“Aaaaaaaa——”

The screams were mixed with the growls and roars of wild beasts, one after another. The air was filled with a fishy smell and a faint smell of blood.

Wen Qing's face turned pale.

In a flash, everyone realized that something was wrong with the system's words.

Post clues...

Release...monsters?
