Chapter 51
Chapter 51
Xu Lian is dead. This seemingly shrewd and capable white-collar worker underestimated the selfishness of human nature. She thought that everyone said that they should help each other and work together to clear the game. Some delusion, a delusion that they can help each other, especially when the time is getting tighter and the current environment is getting worse and worse, the excessive fear in her heart, when she is in a hurry, she takes a risky move and makes a wrong move move chess.
When Li Gui's hand grabbed her chest, and she could even feel her beating heart being tightly grasped by that skinny and cold hand, she noticed more that her head was not moving. Back to You Chang who ran away directly.At the moment when she closed her eyes, she was no longer afraid, and there was even a sliver of relief. The last thought that came to her mind was, the way of heaven is like reincarnation, and who is spared by heaven.
You Chang returned downstairs with a look of shock, and the other players who were waiting anxiously ran towards him as soon as they saw him: "Why, how is it? Has the matter been resolved?"
Under everyone's expectant eyes, You Chang shook his head, Qiu Tian noticed that You Chang came down alone, and frowned: "Where's Xu Lian?"
It was only then that everyone realized that there was one person missing, and hurriedly asked, You Chang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The timing of the attack was wrong, we were too nervous, and didn't notice that besides the pathogen, another person was locked up."
Zhang Ning looked at You Chang sternly: "And then? What about Xu Lian?"
You Chang glanced at them, with a sad expression on his face: "Originally we succeeded in getting close to the pathogen according to the plan, and Xu Lian did succeed, but the He in this game is not the pathogen. After that person was killed, he was almost In an instant, I turned into a ghost, and I kept holding the talisman to be on guard. At that time, my first reaction was to stick to the ghost. We had a chance to run, but I didn't expect that the act of killing people would stimulate me. I don't know when. Another person who was also locked in that room changed his appearance at that time and rushed towards us. I ran out in a hurry and found that Xu Lian hadn't followed. Looking back, Xu Lian was captured by that person. On the ground, the whole heart was pulled out."
Cui Ting's feet were weak, and she almost sat down on the ground. Zhang Ning and Qiu Tian's expressions were very ugly, and they even looked at You Chang with suspicion.But Huang Ruifeng and that purple-haired Liu Ming's attention was not on the dead Xu Lian, but on the talisman: "That is to say, did you use that talisman? Don't we have a second chance to try, so we can only hit it once?" success?"
You Chang nodded with a serious expression: "My ghost energy value cannot be exchanged for the second talisman."
Qiu Tiandao: "When killing people in front of others, the person who will be stimulated will also tear off the disguise of a living person and turn into a ghost?"
You Chang shook his head: "I don't know, this is the first time this has happened, in other games before, no player killed anyone in public, unless he was very sure that person was him, the ghost domain would disappear the moment he killed him .”
He said some things half-truths and half-truths, which made people more convincing.
Huang Ruifeng asked in a panic: "You used a talisman to deal with a ghost, what about the other one? Will he chase us down and kill us?"
You Chang shook his head again: "I don't know, this has never happened before, but I ran down, and there seemed to be no ghosts chasing after me."
The death of a Xu Lian makes people feel heavy, but the target is wrong, which makes people feel even more heavy. Everyone's eyes can't help looking at the big beard who enjoys like an emperor in the hall. Is he the one?
Wen Ran in the captain's cabin signaled Qi Yunjing to look at his phone. He asked about their situation in the group just now, but no one else answered, only Qiu Tian replied, killing the wrong target, Xu Lian died.
The captain's room is not a place to talk. Seeing their father and daughter's frail appearance, Wen Ran left a pack of biscuits for them even though she knew they were just ghosts disguised as living people: "Since Miss Xia doesn't want to talk to us Let's go, then we won't force it, and we haven't found a safe place to stay now, let's leave here first, go check out the situation outside, if there is anything, we will come to you again."
Seeing that his daughter was so dependent on him, the captain had no choice but to hand over his daughter to these two strangers. Seeing that his daughter was so resistant, he stopped pushing and watched them crawl away from the vent. The door closed again.
Xia Yao said: "Dad, why don't we crawl out from here too?"
The captain shook his head: "Don't say that Dad's size can't climb in at all, even if he climbed out, this is on a boat, at sea, where can we hide, staying here now, Xu Youwei may not dare to kill us directly, at least not yet. , so we still have a little time."
Xia Yao couldn't help throwing herself into her father's arms and burst into tears: "How did it become like this, oh...everything was fine, why did it become like this..."
The captain stroked his daughter's hair, and said distressedly: "It's all my father's fault. I've lived my whole life, but I can't even recognize people. It's all my father's fault. My father should not have brought you on board. It was my father who harmed you."
Xia Yao cried and shook her head, if she was wrong, she was blind and didn't see that Xu Youwei was a bastard!
Wen Ran and Qi Yunjing crawled carefully in the pipeline for a while. They originally wanted to find an empty cabin to stay for a while, but the unused cabins were all cut off, and the air was completely blocked under the four sides. In the end, the two The man chose a storage room near the deck, opened the door, at least he could see the outside, and get a fresh air.
Wen Ran's bald eyes were in a daze. He felt that there was no hint at all, and a game that relied entirely on guessing was not suitable for him at all. There were so many people on board. Although many people had died now, there were not a thousand people left. , There are also hundreds of them, but if you want to find that Him, the key is that there is no indication of the slightest hint, how to find it.
Qi Yunjing was also silent for a while, and then suddenly said: "I suspect that he is probably the captain."
Wen Ran looked at Qi Yunjing: "Why?"
Qi Yunjing said: "An old captain's obsession with the ship is far beyond ordinary people's imagination. In almost all shipwrecks, the captain is the last one. He will abandon his ship when there is a way out and he has no other choice. Otherwise, even if they die, they would prefer to die on the boat."
Wen Ran: "Just because of this?"
Qi Yunjing said: "Not exactly, I just consider the probability of the environment."
Wen Ran said: "Then I still think his daughter is also possible. If the current situation continues, the captain will definitely die at the hands of his daughter's fiancé. In the case of survival, reducing the consumption of personnel is the only way. What's more, to raise those marked with death marks as two-legged sheep, think about it, if his daughter watched his father being killed, it might even be possible To be eaten, or to be betrayed by the person next to her pillow, will this hatred be greater than the sky?"
Qi Yunjing looked at Wen Ran with serious eyes: "Can you do it?"
This question really caught Wen Ran, would he do it, even if he was sure who the owner of this ghost domain was, would he kill someone, even if he killed someone who was no longer in this world.It's not gentle and hypocritical, he has never experienced such a thing, even he just turned [-] this year, this question is not so straightforward for him to answer.
Let him kill the ghost with his bare hands, he can do it without hesitation, even in the case of endangering his own life, no matter how pitiful the ghost has a past, he will not soften his heart.But now let him go through the murder first, and then the ghost killing again, it will be terrible.
After enduring it again and again, Wen Ran still couldn't hold back and cursed: "Pervert."
I really don't know who set up this game, whether it is to hate those ghosts who created the ghost domain, or to dig out the truth that has been covered up by time.If it is the former, then give them a hint directly, let them find someone, and do it directly, why bother to observe and search so hard.If it's the latter, they have to be stabbed after they have seen the tragic truth. What is this person planning?
Qi Yunjing knew what he was cursing, but he himself couldn't figure out whether it was ghosts playing tricks on people or people playing ghosts behind this ghost domain.
Wen Ran opened the bag he was carrying, rummaged through it for some filling food, ate some with Qi Yunjing, recovered some strength, and then said: "You stay here, I'll go see the ghost ship. "
Qi Yunjing said: "Do you want to visit the part that has been assimilated?"
Wen Ran nodded, Qi Yunjing said: "I'm with you, it's not appropriate to act separately now."
Wen Ran thinks so, even if he hides here, he won't be able to prevent someone from finding out, so it's better for them not to separate.
At this time, the people on the ship had already noticed the strangeness on the ship. Starting from the stern, it seemed that another time and space continued to spread over, and what they saw in one step was a strange dilapidated state. Many people hurriedly moved their positions, wishing they could The farther away from that weird change, the better, for fear of being swallowed by something.
Therefore, except for Wen Ran and Qi Yunjing who were avoiding people at first, the closer they were to the assimilated place, the less people there were. Wen Ran didn't stop until they reached the middle of the hull: "The speed is so fast. Just assimilated to the stern."
Qi Yunjing: "Want to go there?"
Wen Ran stretched out his hand towards Qi Yunjing: "Hold on to me, let's go take a look."
Qi Yunjing glanced at his hand, and held it without any hesitation. When the two were about to go in and take a look, a scream came from behind them, and the two immediately found a place to hide in. , and a group of people have already rushed to the deck of this floor.
Wen Ran leaned over and saw that the captain and his daughter had been arrested at some point, and at this moment, a man who was unshaven but could vaguely look handsome, pointed his knife at the captain fiercely.
Xia Yao was subdued by the two men, one on the left and the other on the right, but she still struggled desperately towards her father and wanted to pounce: "Bastard! Xu Youwei, you are a beast! How have my dad treated you all these years! Could it be that you Are you not afraid of retribution!!"
Xu Youwei bared his teeth and smiled: "Retribution? Look now, I don't know if I can leave alive in the end, what retribution am I afraid of? How did your father treat me? Do you think you are very kind to me? In the eyes of others, I am just A dog of the Xia family, Xia Yao, your princess disease makes me sick!"
Xia Yao's eyes were red with hatred, seeing her father's half body being pushed out of the railing, she struggled like crazy: "Xu Youwei, you must die! You let my dad go! Come at me if you have the ability!"
Xu Youwei sneered: "No hurry, it will be your turn next."
After Xu Youwei finished speaking, he let go of the hand that was holding the captain's neck. The hunger these days left the captain's father and daughter with little strength to resist. Looking at the man who used to be so high up and did everything as if he was giving to others, Xu Youwei was very happy. He always dreamed that one day, he would trample the father and daughter of the Xia family under their feet.
Kicking the old captain's face with his foot, Xu Youwei smiled: "It's too cheap for you to die like this. Don't you have a good experience of what despair is, and how can you be worthy of the suffering I have suffered all these years."
At this moment, the old captain, who thought he had no power to resist, suddenly jumped up, snatched the knife from Xu Youwei's hand, and tried to hack the scum to death, but was kicked by the person next to Xu Youwei. open.
But even so, the tip of the knife still scratched Xu Youwei's face.
Xu Youwei didn't expect that this old thing still had the strength to resist, so he didn't react for a while. Now, looking at the old thing that was kicked to the ground, Xu Youwei touched his face, and then touched the blood in his hand, his eyes suddenly turned pale. One change: "I heard that the people above have not enough food."
Most of the people who followed Xu Youwei were crew members. Hearing Xu Youwei's words, his heart skipped a beat. No matter what, he was the former captain. Some people couldn't help but said, "Why don't you throw them into the sea."
Xu Youwei gave that person a cold look: "If you want to go to sea so much, I'll leave you first, okay?"
The man suddenly didn't dare to speak. Now Xu Youwei has the most people, and they have a lot of weapons and food in their hands. They even have the only escape pod left in their hands. No matter what, they dare not really offend Xu Youwei.
Xu Youwei withdrew his gaze coldly, and said to the people beside him, "Take them to the hall and tie them up."
After the group of people left, Wen Ran walked out, glanced at the assimilation line that was getting closer behind him, and Wen Ran said: "It is basically certain now that this He is either the old captain or his daughter. When they are angry, the speed becomes faster."
Qi Yunjing said: "That is to say, if they die naturally according to their original fate, this ship will completely become a ghost ship?"
Wen Ran said: "I don't know, but it's very possible."
After Wen Ran finished speaking, he looked at Qi Yunjing: "There is another method, which is a bit risky, and I don't know if it will succeed."
Qi Yunjing said: "What method?"
Wen Ran: "Rescue them and take them to a place where they have been assimilated. The ship that disappeared back then will turn into a ghost ship, and one of them will turn into a ghost that can condense out of the ghost realm. Shen, if I let them go back to the ghost ship, maybe it will stimulate them to think of their own death. Once they think of their own death, they will naturally take off their disguise of living people. If you can beat them to death, you can always break this ghost domain."
Qi Yunjing knew that he didn't know as much as Wen Ran in this aspect, although Wen Ran was not sure, but he had to give it a try, so Qi Yunjing agreed to Wen Ran's proposal.
It's just that before they acted, the captain and his daughter ran out first.
Most of the people below are crew members. In the beginning, Xu Youwei really used the food as an excuse to incite many people to unload the captain's rights with him. In addition, there were quite a few people standing in line as the deputy captain at that time. Said that everyone has completely lost their conscience.
Before locking the captain in the cabin, even if it was just a small bread and a bottle of water every day, at least he didn't drive people to death, but now, Xu Youwei obviously wants to kill the captain's family. The captain's small crew, taking the opportunity of delivering food, stuffed a razor blade into the palm-sized bread.Only then did the captain take advantage of the night, when everyone was resting, to cut off the rope and run out with his daughter.
But the ship was only so big, there was no food, and they would die wherever they hid. The captain ran out with his daughter, but he didn't run far, but brought his daughter to the deck.
Originally there was a rescue capsule here, but now the only rescue capsule has been directly dragged to Xu Youwei's side to guard. The captain didn't expect to escape from here, but looked at the only daughter he brought up with a sad expression: "Yao Yao, Dad is sorry for you."
Xia Yao cried and shook her head: "Dad, let's find a place to hide first, the boat is so big, they won't be able to find us in a while."
The captain just shook his head. They couldn't hide, and they would starve to death if they hid. If they were found when they were so hungry and completely exhausted, it would be even worse. He wasn't afraid of his own death. When he was Yaoyao, those people had undisguised animal gazes, verbal insults, and even bullying in actions. He raised such a big daughter, she was not born to be spoiled.
Thinking of the inevitable fate of their father and daughter, the captain said cruelly: "Yaoyao, climb up, father knows that death will be very painful, but don't be afraid, father is with Yaoyao."
Xia Yao's eyes widened suddenly, and she suddenly became afraid, but what she was afraid of was not the jumping into the sea, but the unknown of facing death.
The captain stretched out his arms and hugged his daughter: "Don't be afraid, Yaoyao, Dad is always here. In the next life, we will be father and daughter again. In the next life, Dad will definitely protect you."
Xia Yao was raised naively, but she is not stupid. She knows their current situation, they will die sooner or later, and she also knows that her father can no longer protect her, and she also knows that if she does not die, she may face the next How horrible as hell.
Despite the fear in his heart, he climbed up the railing tremblingly, crying with tears all over his face.
The captain held his daughter in his arms as he did when he was a child: "Don't be afraid of Yaoyao, life is more terrifying than death, you go first, Dad will come soon."
After finishing speaking, the captain became cruel and pushed his daughter down before it was too late for her to repent.
To kill his own daughter with his own hands, for a father who loves his daughter like his life, it is more painful than cutting him into pieces.The captain has never hated himself so much, why did he bring his daughter on board, why did he have to know people so badly.But it's okay, dead is better than alive.
However, the second Xia Yao was pushed down, a figure suddenly appeared beside her, grabbing Xia Yao's slender wrist.
The captain was startled, and saw that it was the two young men who had been in his room before.
Qi Yunjing dragged Xia Yao, and Wen Ran hurried over to help. It was too easy for two big men to lift a girl who weighed eighty pounds.
The captain looked at them in a daze, and when he saw his daughter being dragged back to the deck weeping weakly, he couldn't help but stepped forward and hugged her: "Yaoyao, Dad's Yaoyao..."
Xia Yao also hugged her father tightly, but she couldn't say anything. At that moment, she really felt that she was going to die.
At this moment, there was a noisy voice from a distance, and the light of the flashlight, Wen Ran pulled the two of them together: "Come with us."
Already completely panicked, the captain instinctively followed suit, and Wen Ran dragged Qi Yunjing into him. He didn't know what would happen if he brought Qi Yunjing into a place that had been assimilated by the ghost ship, so both of them were taking risks.
Separated by a line, one is a brand new and luxurious cruise ship, and the other is a dilapidated and rusty hulk.
When he walked into the boundary of the ghost ship, Qi Yunjing looked around in amazement. He could see that the hull was the same, but it seemed that time had been sped up, decayed, dilapidated, gloomy, and desolate. Truly like a deserted place.
Wen Ran has been paying attention to the changes around her, as well as the changes of the captain, father and daughter. Xia Yao is frightened, she doesn't understand how a good boat has become like this in an instant, snuggling tightly in her father's arms In the middle, carefully looked around.
As for the captain, he was dazed at first, then confused, and then gradually calmed down.
Seeing the captain's change, Wen Ran immediately knew it.
He held Qi Yunjing tightly with one hand, and hid the other hand behind his back, and began to accumulate spiritual power. As long as the captain turned into a ghost, he could strike immediately.
It's just that the captain was extraordinarily calm from beginning to end, looking at his daughter who was relying on his side, he reached out his hand to stroke her hair lovingly: "Yaoyao."
Xia Yao raised her head: "Father? How did this place become like this? It wasn't like this just now."
The captain smiled when he heard the words: "Don't worry, Yaoyao, Dad, no one will bully you again, and no one will bully you again."
Xia Yao only felt that her father's words were a bit strange, but she only thought it was her father's comfort, so she wiped away her tears, nodded obediently, and then her body softened, and she didn't know anything.
The captain put his daughter on the ground, then looked up at the two young men in front of him.
Wen Ran was quite calm, but not at all on guard.
The captain said: "That day, no one came, I pushed Yaoyao into the sea, it was foggy, I could only listen to my daughter struggling, but I couldn't see anything."
Wen Ran didn't speak, but held Qi Yunjing's hand tightly, as expected the captain was the one, he remembered everything.
