Chapter 395: The Tricks of the Beast World (8)
Xia Yueke actually wanted to talk about fairness and didn't want to continue arranging beds, but she also knew that if she continued to follow yesterday's order, it would indeed be unfair to Lin An.
After hearing this, Sister Zhang was silent for a moment before nodding. "Okay, let's do it again today. Whoever loses gets the bed by the door."
The three of them had no objection and continued playing rock-paper-scissors, but this time Xia Yue was not so lucky and lost two games in a row.
Xia Yueke's face suddenly turned pale.
Sister Zhang came over and took out her cold medicine. She squinted at Xia Yueke and said, "How about some psychological comfort? Pretend this is sleeping pills and sleep till dawn?"
Xia Yueke looked at Sister Zhang's fearless expression and was silent for a moment. "Sister Zhang, why aren't you afraid?"
Sister Zhang waved her hand. "What's there to be afraid of? Besides, there are rules. As long as you follow them strictly, nothing will go wrong. Just think of it this way. Don't be afraid!"
Xia Yueke nodded and said no more, but slept on the bed near the door. When the three of them got into bed, the candles were automatically extinguished and the curtains were drawn. Even with her eyes open, she could not see her hand in front of her face.
After a while, Xia Yueke finally crawled into the quilt. The quilt was a huge animal skin that could just accommodate her entire body, so Xia Yueke was not so scared.
Xia Yueke crawled into the quilt and wanted to sleep immediately, because she knew that basically nothing would happen in the first half of the night, but the second half would be a tough battle.
When Xia Yuke was sleeping soundly, she suddenly heard a rustling sound. It was the sound of skin sliding across the quilt, as if something was crawling on the web.
After another 0.01 seconds, Xia Yueke finally felt a sticky touch coming from her feet. She was clearly covered with a quilt, but for some reason, the thing seemed to be directly attached to her feet.
Xia Yueke was extremely scared. All kinds of horrible scenes appeared in her mind and her body shivered unconsciously, but she still suppressed her fear and pretended to be asleep.
Because rule two clearly states: If you choose the bed near the door among the three wooden beds in the room and feel someone touching your feet after falling asleep, do not wake up, stay quiet and pretend to be asleep.
Xia Yue knew that nothing good would happen. If she had known that the rascal was going to play tricks on her, she would not have wanted to change her bed. She could only pray in her heart that she would not have to go back to this room tomorrow. It was too scary.
She also regretted very much that she had watched many horror movies in the past. Some scenes that she would normally forget became clearer when she was most scared, and even played out in her mind over and over again.
I used to watch horror movies to become stronger, but now it turns out it’s to scare my future self who is scared.
After an unknown amount of time, when Xia Yueke felt that the thing was about to crawl onto her calf, the touch finally disappeared.
Xia Yueke breathed a sigh of relief, and then she heard Lin An's voice not far away, "Xia Yueke, Sister Zhang, are you awake? I'm so scared, can you help me?"
Xia Yueke snorted inwardly, rolling her eyes under the covers. After what happened just now, Xia Yueke had no good feelings towards Lin An. He was still helping her? Not harming her was already a blessing for her!
Lin An cried for his parents for a while, but finally there was no sound.
This time, Xia Yueke slept until dawn. When she woke up, she found that Sister Zhang had already packed herself up.
Xia Yueke was curious, "Sister Zhang, did you hear any noise in the middle of the night?"
Sister Zhang was stunned. "You should have heard it. Several people called me, including old acquaintances. But I'm very irritable when I wake up, so I never respond. Unless I want to wake up myself, it's useless for anyone to call me! Then I fell asleep again."
Xia Yueke sounded quite envious, "It would be great if I had a function like yours. I feel like the experiences of these two days are richer than my twenty-plus years of experience!"
Sister Zhang laughed out loud when she heard this. Then she walked out the door and said, "I wonder how lucky that young man is."
Xia Yuke followed closely behind and saw Ai Teng already outside the door. He was very excited at the moment, and when he saw Sister Zhang, he was even more fawning.
"Sister Zhang, Sister Zhang, what you gave me is so effective. I slept through the whole night!"
Sister Zhang smiled brightly, "Really? That's good."
Lin An sneered at the side, "Fool!"
Ai Teng didn't understand, but was still very happy and ignored her.
Sister Zhang glanced at Lin An and said, "Why are you meddling in other people's business? You can't do good things yourself, but you don't allow others to do good things?"
Lin An was choked and snorted coldly, "It's better than you, but you still deliberately lie to others! Hypocritical!"
Sister Zhang looked at Lin An and said, "People are happy to believe it. It's none of your business. It's like a dog trying to catch a rat."
"You!" Lin An wanted to say something,
Xia Yueke interrupted her, "Sister Zhang, look up at the sky!"
Xia Yueke didn't want to get involved in the two people's affairs. When she looked up at the sky, she saw a crescent moon hanging in the sky. She felt very strange. It was clearly daytime, so how could there be a moon?
Sister Zhang looked at it and her expression turned pale. "It seems we can't rest in the room tonight. We have to find a cave."
Ai Teng exclaimed, "Looking for a cave? So we won't be back tonight?"
Xia Yueke nodded, "Of course I can't come back. If I come back, I definitely won't be able to leave. Look at the rules!"
Ai Teng had already begun to find the rules. "It's true. The full moon is dangerous. On full moon nights, you must hide in the cave and block the cave entrance with rocks. The full moon will stimulate the orcs' savagery, and they will attack anyone they see. It seems that if we come back tonight, we will definitely not be able to defeat these orcs!"
After Ai Teng finished speaking, he looked around and found that there were indeed many times more tiger people today than yesterday. They were all staring at them with red eyes, as if they were staring at a piece of fat meat.
Xia Yueke looked around, his face pale. "We have to hurry. We need to find a cave and rocks! Today will definitely be faster than yesterday!"
Sister Zhang no longer cared about bickering with Lin An, but instead called out to the tiger orcs, "Tiger orcs, do you have any missions today? If you don't show up, we'll leave here."
Sister Zhang shouted and looked around. Sure enough, after she shouted twice, the tiger-beast man appeared from the base of a wall.
"Today our chief said we don't have enough water to drink. Now we need you to find some clean water and bring it back to the tribe. Oh, and you can't stay in the wooden house today. We'll use it tonight!"
After the tiger man finished speaking, he took a special look at them, his eyes full of anticipation, as if he was wondering whether their meat was delicious and fat.
