"I'm cheering you on. Keep going, don't stop."
Li Su: "Why don't you kiss me? Maybe I'll work even harder."
The little doll scratched its ears and cheeks, trying to break free from the other person's grasp. It tried to use both hands to push, but couldn't budge it at all. Frustrated, it nestled in the man's palm.
"I'm not a pump, hurry up! An hour has passed, and there are still many places we haven't been to. If you get stuck in a dungeon, you'll be in big trouble."
Considering this person isn't all that bad, the little puppet still hopes he can clear the game properly. The system can figure things out on its own. If he becomes an NPC, he might be stuck in the dungeon forever.
Seeing that the little doll was even more anxious than he was, Li Su laughed.
Put the small thing on your head.
Continue squatting down to shovel soil. Some flowers have rotted from the roots and are unlikely to be cured. Others have withered leaves and flowers. Try to save them first.
The little puppet cheered Li Su on with sound effects: "Heave-ho! Heave-ho! Heave-ho! Heave-ho!"
The man let out a laugh from his chest.
His judgment is never wrong; the little doll is just too cute.
During the work period.
A small group arrived.
All four of them put on protective suits.
A mesh dress keeps butterflies away, but allows people to see each other's faces clearly, much like a wedding veil—very thin and sheer.
One of the four had met him in the castle.
The filth on Chi Lulu's body had been cleaned up, and she still looked clean, thin and pretty. At the time, she was too scared to feel ashamed, but now, when she thinks back and sees Li Su again, her ears turn bright red, and she wishes she could dig a hole in the ground and crawl into it.
Li Su's face was the one he fell in love with at first sight.
She cried, screamed, fainted, and even lost control of her bladder in front of her crush...
They've lost all face.
Now, Chi Lulu no longer feels a strong liking for Li Su. Whenever she sees him, she is reminded of the shameful things she has done, making her a walking witness to her humiliation.
I want to run away.
But it's too dangerous here.
Following the veteran players, Chi Lulu kept her head down, not daring to look at Li Su. Her toes were tense and her fists were clenched. She was so embarrassed.
Noticing Li Su's gaze, he felt that the other person was laughing at him for wetting his pants last night. How embarrassing! He quickly turned his back.
The three veteran players were all men, and they were also wearing skirts.
There were strong men in their thirties.
There are young people in their twenties.
There was also a half-face beard, neatly trimmed, with bronze skin that looked like it was intentionally tanned, not from work. He looked a bit like a fitness blogger online, and he was wearing a fluorescent green tulle skirt.
The group glanced at Li Su and saw that he was busy. They didn't immediately go up to talk to him, but instead went to look at the warning sign. The veteran players were all quite cautious.
The butterflies in the garden cannot get close to Lisu.
As the four entered, two-thirds of the poisonous butterflies swarmed around them.
The remaining third continued to inject venom into the irises.
Just as the beneficial butterfly finished saving one plant, it moved on to the next, only to have another poisonous butterfly bite the healed flower. The poisonous butterflies had plenty of time to rest and attack the player, so the beneficial butterfly was too busy to pay attention to anything else.
The swarming poisonous butterflies made it difficult for them to even read.
1. Players are prohibited from killing earthworms in the garden.
Players must fan the butterflies with their hands until they fly away so that the words can be read.
Second: Fertilize the irises; you can get fertilizer by weeding.
Thirdly: Do not use force to drive them away, or set them on fire...
By the time all seven warnings had been read, the flowers had been completely repaired, the soil had been hoed, and the fertilizer was in the hands of the other player, the mission was basically complete.
No, there must be clues in dangerous places.
They cannot leave.
I plan to stay and help Li Su finish the rest of the work before we share information together.
All that's left is fertilizing. A fitness guy in a fluorescent green tutu walks over. He's the one who's cleared the most levels, has the highest win rate, and is the most influential in the team.
"Hello, my name is Li Yansheng. I see you've finished all the tasks. Let's do the rest. We can share information later."
Li Yansheng.
It was him.
Li Su narrowed his eyes and stood up.
Visually, he was taller than Li Yansheng.
The contrast in skin tone between the two is striking. In fact, even the most striking skin tones can be beautiful as long as one has excellent facial features.
Li Yansheng has well-proportioned facial features and a neat beard. If it weren't for that fluorescent green tutu, he would be a tough guy.
Li Su was like a lotus flower, pure and clean, with a head of silver hair that made his already superior features even more beautiful. He often looked at people with indifference and didn't like to talk to them, giving off a sense of aloofness and untouchability.
"Sorry, I don't share."
Because of the large number of players, these places refresh quickly. After Li Su finishes everything, it will take about two or three minutes for the place to return to its initial state, waiting for the next player.
Li Yansheng: "Why? More people mean more strength, and a higher chance of clearing the dungeon. Aren't you afraid of dying?"
Li Su was too lazy to pay them any attention.
Continue squatting down and use a shovel to dig out the still relatively intact irises along with the soil. There are earthworms in there, so be careful when digging, or you'll break them and break the soil, which would be against the rules.
Li Yansheng's eyes flickered slightly. The air was silent for almost a minute before the man suddenly spoke, "If I'm not mistaken, your surname is also Li, right?"
Li Su still ignored him.
Li Yansheng's lips curled up, but there was no smile in his eyes: "I heard that the heir of the Bei Li family has also entered. Have we stumbled into a new instance?"
The Li people are divided into four branches: the Eastern Li, the Western Li, the Southern Li, and the Northern Li.
Li Su is indeed the eldest son of the Northern Li family.
The Li family signed an agreement with the judges of the horror game.
To secure your position as heir, you must hone your courage and thinking skills, including how to solve problems. Only by successfully leaving can you gain the respect of others.
Of course, being erased will also bring suffering.
But they will definitely be redeemed in the end.
Li Yansheng is from Dongli, and it is said that he is the most favored heir there.
I've been here before, but I don't know how I got back in.
Li Su was the same, but he was simply trying to avoid being pressured to get married.
Li Yansheng recognized Li Su as a member of the Li family.
It was also because those poisonous butterflies didn't attack him—no, they wanted to attack, but always stopped half a meter away and hovered around him.
Even he had to wear a protective suit, but Li Su didn't, for only one reason: he had a peach wood cross.
The little doll perched on the man's shoulder, listening obediently.
I don't understand, but I think Li Su must be very capable, and he's very smart.
"Since they come from the same company, why not cooperate?"
There is no enmity between the Li families in Northeast China; they simply don't keep in touch. Otherwise, it's impossible for the two younger generations not to recognize each other when they meet.
Li Yansheng kept harassing them. He would finish his task later, and they might get a share of the poker. He could sit back and enjoy the benefits, but he absolutely couldn't let them get any.
Li Su: "No cooperation!"
Li Yansheng: "I've studied many instances, and they're fraught with danger. Even if I admit you're skilled, can you guarantee you won't make a single mistake? If you feel you're at a disadvantage, let's go to the next location, do more work, and then exchange information after we get it, how about that?"
Li Su was used to traveling alone, and he had been to other instances before.
However, the little doll can only come out for eight hours at a time, and then it has to go back to 'recharge' for two hours. With a slight smile and a calculating look in his eyes, he said, "Okay, you guys find a shovel and transplant the flowers over there."
He pointed to the grass where the soil had just been turned over.
Li Yansheng frowned and looked at the rules again. It didn't say that the flowers needed to be transplanted. There were a lot of earthworms in the soil where the irises were. If they were transplanted, no one could guarantee that the earthworms wouldn't be cut off when they were shoveled.
The earthworms here are different from those in the normal world. Earthworms in the normal world can survive even if they are cut in half, but the earthworms in the Ghost Garden will die if you touch them.
Li Yansheng believed that Li Su's transplantation was a complete waste of time.
For flowers that are rotting at the roots, dig them up and leave the healthy ones. Apply fertilizer, water them every half hour, and the task will be completed in an hour at most.
The remaining poisonous butterflies.
They must not be allowed to destroy the irises before the mission is completed.
You can buy a net from a sightseeing bus driver to catch the butterflies. This way, you won't harm them and you can solve the problem effectively.
“I suggest you dig up the rotten roots instead of transplanting. Transplanting takes too much time, and there are so many other places to go later. You’ll have to go through each one, and you’ll be very busy later on,” Li Yansheng said.
"Isn't it because of you all?" Li Su said with a half-smile.
Li Yansheng: "..."
It's fine if there are no earthworms, but if there are earthworms underneath, the difficulty level doubles. There are easier ways, so why choose the difficult one?
"Your project is too large; I still suggest..."
Before he could finish speaking, Li Su cut him off, saying, "I don't accept your suggestion."
If someone is on a mission, the mission point needs to be closed.
Other players are not allowed to enter until the player completes the task or is eliminated. These few people were able to enter. Li Su glanced at the little doll perched on his shoulder.
The system probably misjudged the situation when the NPC entered, which is why it didn't block the garden.
"Don't be stubborn. I'm sincerely suggesting that there are at least ten more points to explore, including the castle. Are you sure you've explored them all? Instead of wasting time on such meaningless things, let's speed things up and minimize the risks."
Li Yansheng wanted to finish quickly and move on to the next mission point.
I never expected the heir of the Bei Li family to be so good at dawdling.
"so what?"
A rhetorical question left Li Yansheng confused again.
People with different principles cannot work together.
He wanted to call the other person stupid, but then thought it wasn't worth offending him, since he was the only son in the Bei Li family. Finally, he suppressed his anger and said to his teammates, "Let's go to the next mission point first."
Chi Lulu: "Huh?"
Although it was awkward, he still wanted his teammates to follow Li Su.
Putting everything else aside, his composed demeanor makes him seem surprisingly reliable. Chi Lulu no longer cares about love; he needs to survive and doesn't want to be eliminated.
The team is reliable at the moment, a combination of strong players, so he, this little shrimp, will definitely be able to save his life.
"You really don't want to play with the other person?" Chi Lulu subconsciously exclaimed.
Li Yansheng glanced at him, turned around and left. Chi Lulu had no choice but to follow. At least the older brothers were willing to take him along. He almost lost his life with Li Su.
As they left, before Li Su had even dug up a few plants, three more arrived, cursing and swearing. They were clearly still angry from the previous mission.
A: "What kind of nonsense is this? How are parents raising their kids these days? They're neither male nor female, what kind of behavior is this!"
B: "The problem lies in the parents' education."
A: "Just one cry and whining and I almost died!"
The frustration in my heart is hard to express.
There were pebbles at my feet, so I kicked them hard into the distance, and they hit the warning sign.
It made a piercing sound, startling the little doll. He was quite afraid that the player would go crazy. Without the protection of the display window, he felt particularly insecure and climbed down from Li Su's shoulder.
She stepped on the collar, stretched her little feet inside, and tried to hide herself as well. The puffy skirt was so tight that her legs could go in but her buttocks couldn't. She nervously clung to Li Su and pitifully said, "Hug me."
Li Su's heart softened. He patted the little doll's head, finding it difficult to stuff inside his clothes, so he held the doll in his hands and comforted it:
"It's alright, they won't dare to do anything to you, don't be afraid."
The little doll's emotions were gradually calmed down.
It's making little noises.
It can be sweet, soft, and fragrant!
The player was still cursing when he arrived in the park and saw a beautiful figure from afar. The person was squatting down, and it was impossible to tell her exact height, but her dress and hair were very eye-catching.
I've seen this player before in the lobby.
She was tall, had fair skin, looked like a woman, and had long hair.
When players enter the game, the first thing they usually do is look for the rules.
The group first looked at the warning sign.
frown.
Seeing that Li Su was almost finished, they prepared to sit back and reap the rewards, waiting to see what kind of rewards or information would be given at the end.
He found a spot to sit, still muttering curses under his breath:
"The NPCs here are insane! Why do they have to dress up as sissies? Listening to them talk is disgusting. How are we supposed to do the quests? I can't learn to wiggle my butt like that. Going to a dungeon on a bus is supposed to be exciting. What kind of people are these?"
The only one who hadn't said a word sighed and said, "Latin dance is alright."
"You praise that kind of dance? You must be crazy!"
"And singing, singing among a bunch of women, didn't you see the looks in the audience's eyes? Seriously! If it weren't for passing the test, I wouldn't do it even if you killed me!"
Objectively speaking, he was inexplicably attacked for stating a fact, and the young man's face turned red with anger.
"That's enough! Sexual equality is the goal, and that's the story of this instance. You're putting yourself in the protagonist's shoes, and you're being stared at with strange looks. Since you know it's uncomfortable, why are you criticizing others?"
B: "Alright, alright, stop arguing. The last task was a waste of time. What's the use of a playing card?"
He pulled a Queen of Spades from his pocket, but it was too inconvenient to hold it up in front of his eyes since it was inside his clothes. He glanced at it, then put it back, not knowing what the card was for.
The card reads: Roses don't have to grow into pine trees.
C paused for a moment: "It might be a collection of playing cards."
Then he added, "You all sit here, I'll go ask around."
After C left, A started cursing again. He just couldn't stand those effeminate women. Did they have genetic diseases? They didn't fit the definition of humanity; they were all dross!
Liu Qing went over and, out of politeness, squatted down as well. Seeing the little doll on Li Su's shoulder, he smiled and said, "Your little doll is very cute. My name is Liu Qing. It's nice to meet you."
The little doll's mood instantly vanished after being praised for her cuteness. She nestled on the man's shoulder, happily raised her little feet, looked at the handsome boy, and smiled shyly, "Thank you, you're handsome too."
The doll's voice startled Liu Qing so much that he fell to the ground.
His face turned pale.
“You…” Take a deep breath.
Brainwash yourself into thinking this is a terrifying world full of NPCs, where it's not surprising that a puppet can talk.
He was just taken aback by the sight at first glance.
Having mentally prepared herself for this moment, she felt embarrassed and patted the protective netting. Instead of looking at the doll, she fixed her gaze on Li Su and asked, "Is there anything I can help you with?"
