Penitent hand, trembling slightly

Chapter 120 Xiao Qiao

At this time, the sky is clear, countless birds fly by in the blue sky, there is no wind in the air, and the cicadas in the bushes chirp tirelessly, bringing the sultriness and irritability unique to midsummer.

Standing in front of this building, Shen Maomao used his presbyopic eyes to look at the sign next to the main entrance in the fence.

What-what-what-what.

It was a little far away, and she couldn't see anything but a "one."

The current situation is a bit similar to her first world. The people around her don’t know each other, and they are all on guard. Everyone stays at the door and waits for everyone to arrive. Then an NPC will appear to start the plot.

Lou Jingmo and Guan Qiwen didn't know where they were teleported, and they haven't arrived yet.

Shen Maomao hugged her shoulders and closed her eyes to rest her mind. Not long after, she clapped her hands on her shoulders, and Lou Jingmo's voice came to her ears: "Are you meditating here?"

She immediately opened her eyes, turned around and squinted her eyes to look at Lou Jingmo's pinched face, and it took a long time to focus: "Sister Lou, you are finally here!"

Lou Jingmo didn't realize what was wrong with her, and glanced at the situation in the fence, thoughtfully: "This copy is quite interesting..."

Shen Maomao trembled: "...how interesting is it?" Her dim presbyopia could not see anything.

Lou Jingmo stopped talking, and began to observe the expressions of the people around him.

Time passed by, and more and more people arrived, and soon ten people gathered in front of the building.Guan Qiwen also came, but he didn't recognize the two women, so he didn't know what he was planning.

There are men and women among these people, more women than men, it seems that there are no newcomers.

Although the surrounding environment is beautiful and the air is fresh, the players are not here for spring outings, and they have no intention of admiring the beautiful scenery. The npc's delay in arriving makes most people irritable and irritable.A man kicked the big iron gate of the building, and the iron gate swayed and made a loud noise, startling everyone around.

A woman's sharp voice came over: "Are you crazy?!"

"Crap." The man cursed, "Is it a bug? Why hasn't the npc come out?"

The woman said: "Then you can't do this! If you annoy the ghost..."

She didn't finish her sentence, but obviously, everyone knew what was going to happen next.The man's face also changed, and he whispered a few words cursing, and then stopped talking.

The front of the door fell into silence again, and people's patience became less and less. On the contrary, everyone's fear became more and more tired...

Shen Maomao glanced at the sky, and couldn't help asking: "What's going on? Is it really a bug?"

Lou Jingmo leaned on her boneless: "Maybe it's because the people are not ready yet."

Some newcomers will not necessarily come to the door to gather, but will find their own way out of their own cleverness.

The woman who spoke first said: "Let's look for it? It's not an option to stay here all the time."

The man who was so stunned by her retorted: "What are you looking for? Wait until they die?"

As soon as the words were finished, the people present generally showed two expressions: most of them nodded in agreement; only two women and one man frowned slightly, as if they felt that his statement was a bit too cold-blooded.

The man said again: "If you want to find it, go by yourself. Don't show this look of looking at the sinner. You are so kind, so go by yourself."

The woman's face turned pale, and she opened her mouth, but she couldn't say anything, and her feet seemed to have roots, and she stood motionless.

Not far away, Lou Jingmo took this farce into his eyes, and couldn't help but think of the scene when he saw Shen Maomao for the first time, and couldn't help but whispered: "If it were you, would you beat him up? Immediately after that, you go looking for someone angrily?"

Shen Maomao wanted to refute that she was not so stunned, but when she thought about her performance when she first entered the game, she felt that it was really possible for her to do such a thing.

She coughed twice in embarrassment, let go of her throat and said, "Let's look around, Sister Lou?"

Everyone immediately turned their attention to the two of them.

Lou Jingmo nodded calmly: "Let's go, it won't start if there are not enough people. Didn't the sky change at all?"

It’s okay if she doesn’t say it. After saying this, everyone finally understands what the sense of disobedience has been all along—the small and lovely clouds in the sky seem to have never moved. The sound seems to be repeating a short melody, chirping endlessly, mechanical and eerie.

Now those who don't want to move have to start looking for someone, otherwise everyone is working hard to start the game, and you are the only one who is lazy, and you will easily become the target of public criticism.

"It's really troublesome." The man said reluctantly, walked quickly through the bushes, and walked towards the open and wide asphalt road that looked better.

A few people who didn't really want to contribute quickly followed him, leaving the woods behind the building for those who were a step behind.

When those five people walked away, the rest of them walked back unhurriedly.

The woman smiled and came over to strike up a conversation with Lou Jingmo and said softly, "Hello, my name is Xiao Qiao, and I have passed two worlds..."

She looks less than 30 years old, and her appearance is only a bit delicate, which is worse than Shen Maomao, but much better than Lou Jingmo's face pinching.

Shen Maomao glanced at her and guessed that her surname was probably Qiao.

Lou Jingmo replied, "My name is Xiaolou."

Shen Maomao continued, "My name is Xiao Shen."

Another man next to him said: "I am Xiao Kong."

Xiao Qiao: "..."

Guan Qiwen from the side came over and said with a smile, "I'm Xiaoguan, how are you three beauties."

When Guan Qiwen first appeared at the door, Xiao Qiao had been peeking at her. Seeing that such a handsome man really came to talk to her, Xiao Qiao couldn't help but blushed, and her voice was so soft that it could drip water: "Forest Li is still not sure if An is safe, let's not separate and leave..."

Xiao Kong, the remaining lone wolf, nodded again and again, agreeing with her statement.

Naturally, Shen Maomao and Lou Jingmo had no objection, so the five of them put the single hole in the middle and walked slowly into the woods.

The moment they set foot in the woods, the noisy insects quieted down at this moment, causing all the people present to pause and stop at the edge of the woods.

Xiao Qiao was so frightened that Huarong turned pale, and went straight into Guan Qiwen's arms: "What's going on? Why is it so quiet all of a sudden?!"

Guan Qiwen hugged her shoulders impolitely, and comforted her in a low voice: "Don't be afraid, the dungeon is probably playing tricks, this is the first day, it's okay..."

Xiao Kong said: "I'm a little uneasy... let's be careful."

The five of them continued to go deep into the forest. Guan Qiwen and Xiao Qiao seemed to have forgotten that this is a game world fraught with dangers.

Shen Maomao pricked up her ears and listened hard for a while, and found that the topics they were talking about had seriously polluted her ears, so she immediately distracted her attention, and whispered to Lou Jingmo: "What's the situation with them? Are you talking about it? "

Lou Jingmo sneered, and replied softly: "They're all just looking for someone to back them up."

Xiao Kong, who was walking not far in front of them, shivered and moved his head, as if he wanted to look back at them, but he restrained himself.

There was a fresh smell of earth and wood in the air, mixed with what seemed to be an inexplicable rot...or rot.

They walked deeper and deeper, Shen Maomao looked back, only to find that the building was no longer visible, and quickly stopped: "Wait a minute! Don't move on, we have gone too far!"

Although the sky is still clear, the forest is too gloomy and quiet. It seems that as long as they stop talking, they can hear each other's heartbeat clearly.

Xiao Qiao was a little timid: "Let's go back? We've walked so far and haven't seen anyone. The couple must be along the main road...ah! What!"

Before she finished speaking, there was a sudden rustling sound from the bushes next to her. The voice that was originally like a lover's murmur became sharp in an instant, which startled Shen Maomao.

The five people collectively faced the trembling bushes, Xiao Qiao shrank behind Guan Qiwen, and asked sharply, "Who?! Who's there?!"

Guan Qiwen's ears hurt from the shock, he frowned, and quickly returned to a masked smirk, dutifully protecting her behind him.

"Wait a minute!" A voice came from the bushes, "I'm not a bad person!"

"It seems to be a human..." Shen Maomao said.

However, they did not breathe a sigh of relief because of this, and remained vigilant.

The bushes shook again, and a woman in a bright red dress came out with her head full of leaves.

Xiao Kong glanced at her feet and breathed a sigh of relief: "There is a shadow..."

The woman in the red dress looks very coquettish, even if her face is covered with ashes and leaves, she can't stop her amorous feelings.She came out in a panic, stood where she was and straightened her skirts, and then said to a few people: "Hello... May I ask where this is? Do you know how many buses you can take to get back to Xiangyang District?"

Several people looked at each other and understood that this might be a newcomer.

Xiao Qiao took a step forward and acted as the guide: "You may not be able to go back for the time being. What I say next may ruin your three views, but please stay calm and don't be too scared."

Hearing what she said, the woman in the red skirt couldn't help becoming nervous: "What... what's going on..."

Xiao Qiao said: "This is a horror escape game. There are many ghosts who kill people without blinking an eye. If they die in the game, they will die in reality."

The woman in the red dress turned pale instantly: "Then I..."

Xiao Qiao interrupted her: "Don't rush to ask why you were pulled into the game, only people who have done a lot of bad things will come in, and everyone present is like this, including you, and naturally including me."

Shen Maomao said in his heart: I am not!I don't!

Xiao Qiao: "The game lasts for seven days. People will really die during these seven days. Ghosts generally follow certain rules when killing people, but there are also those who don't follow the rules, so I can't promise you anything. We need to sort out the clues in the dungeon and find the exit , it is possible to defeat the boss who guards the level..."

Lou Jingmo leaned closer to Shen Maomao's ear: "I'm afraid she has lived through more than three worlds..."
