The bearded man was named Li Cheng, and he was already a player staying in the guest house. He came in with his teammates, and the four of them stood together the whole time.
Except for Cheng Miao, the remaining four people were a delinquent young man with yellow hair, a muscular man, and a very young-looking male high school student.
"Let's go in first. It seems that this mission requires entering the library." Li Cheng led his teammates directly into the library without saying anything.
The muscular man looked bluffing, but he didn't seem to have much experience. He looked around, got closer to Huang Mao, and the two of them walked away.
Cheng Miao glanced at the high school student who was looking at her eagerly, with shrinking eyes, and rubbed his brows, "Go in."
When the eight people entered the library, they were stunned by the invisible bookshelves. The books stored in the library are labeled by categories. The bookshelves in each category are like an ocean, so vast that there is no end in sight.
"Damn it!" The muscular man cursed. Cheng Miao glanced at his muscular arms. It seemed that he was not very good at using his brain.
"Ding~ Welcome players to enter the large dungeon [World in the Book]. Please complete the tasks and clear the dungeon."
"This dungeon is a special team dungeon. Players are asked to form pairs. The dungeon will choose one of the books you have read as the background. After the team is successfully formed, the dungeon can be expanded."
"Brother Cheng, what kind of dungeon mode is this? There are no prompts, and you have to form a team. It won't be a confrontation type dungeon, right?" A thin man in Li Cheng's team was a little panicked. The four of them were in a team. If it was really a confrontation, Class copy, wouldn't it cause civil strife?
"Don't worry, I heard a senior player say that the dungeon will not make such arrangements for players to kill each other. You just read too many novels and are overly brainstorming." Li Cheng was the leader at first glance. He was quite calm and spoke a few words. This appeased everyone.
Cheng Miao didn't say anything, but she thought so too, and she guessed that the grouping was because each group had different goals and tasks.
Seeing Li Cheng's team naturally divided into two groups, the remaining four people looked at each other for a long time.
The muscular man hesitated among the high school students and yellow-haired men. Cheng Miao, the only woman beside him, did not enter his consideration range.
"What are you thinking? He's a little brat, and you still expect him to contribute in the dungeon?" Huang Mao spat, staring at the muscular man impatiently, but his eyes showed a trace of nervousness.
The muscular man thought about this and walked to Huang Mao in two steps.
The remaining high school students turned to look at Cheng Miao at a loss. Their brows were clean, but their figure was slightly thin, and their wet eyes looked like some kind of large long-haired hound.
Cheng Miao:......
The high school student walked slowly to Cheng Miao, not daring to get too close. Seeing that Cheng Miao had no expression, but he could feel that he was not rejecting him, and his tense shoulders relaxed slightly.
Prompt sound: "The team has been formed successfully. Please wait a moment. The information in your brains is being extracted to form a copy."
Seeing that they would not be able to enter the dungeon for a while, everyone's tense nerves relaxed. The muscular group simply sat down on the spot, while Li Cheng and the others looked around at the structure of the library.
Cheng Miao wandered aimlessly and came to the nearest "Ancient Literature" column.
The high school student trotted two steps to catch up, watching Cheng Miao browse the books on the bookshelf. He mustered up the courage to say: "You... hello, my name is Lin Zhu, and I am a three-point water master."
Cheng Miao nodded, "Cheng Miao."
Lin Zhu's shoulders relaxed. This sister didn't seem to be as cold as she showed, which made him bolder, "What are you looking at?"
"Nothing," Cheng Miao ran his hand across the rough spine of a book, "I was just wondering which book we would get into."
Lin Zhu frowned, "I just hope it doesn't get into the book I read recently."
Cheng Miao looked at the handsome young man with drooped eyebrows and recalled the middle school novels that adolescent boys loved to read. He became a little curious and asked, "What have you been reading recently?"
"Five years of college entrance examination and three years of simulation..."
Cheng Miao:......
Lin Zhu cheered up and said, "Sister Miaomiao, what books do you like to read?"
Cheng Miao raised a stiff smile, "I like reading horror novels..."
Lin Zhu:......
Not far away, the slightly dazed voice of a muscular man rang out at the right time, "This copy is also very mysterious. Why is it based on a book... The problem is that I don't usually read any books, just books that can't pass the review." "
Huang Mao: "Me too."
Cheng Miao:......
Lin Zhu:......
other people:……
I feel like this copy will become very unreliable.
A prompt sounded, interrupting several people's chat: "Everyone, please load the copy [Secret of the Chang Mansion]... Prompt: Mrs. Cao Guo."
Cheng Miao opened her eyes and found herself in an antique room. Lin Zhu was sitting on the Kangyan next to her. He was wearing a moiré-patterned brocade dress and his hair was tied up. With his already delicate face, he looked very eye-catching.
Lin Zhu was dumbfounded when he looked at Cheng Miao. Normally, Cheng Miao was tall and thin, wearing a simple white shirt and jeans, with long curly hair. Coupled with her temperament of keeping strangers away, she was absolutely perfect. A cold beauty.
Now Cheng Miao was sitting there quietly, wearing a moon-white short coat on the upper body and a glazed red skirt on the lower body. Her thick black hair was pulled into a bun with a white jade magnolia hairpin. The whole person was both agile and bright, and Lin Zhu was so shaken that he could not regain his senses.
"What are you looking at?" Looking into Cheng Miao's dark brown eyes, Lin Zhu suddenly woke up and blushed, "Um...Sister Miaomiao, you are so beautiful."
Cheng Miao thoughtfully walked to the dressing table and held up the bronze mirror to look at it, her expression a little ugly.
Lin Zhu leaned over and saw that there were only blurry figures on the bronze mirror and nothing. He asked strangely: "Sister Miaomiao, what's wrong? Is there any problem?"
Cheng Miao touched her complicated bun, "We are dressed like this, so we can be sure that the background of the copy is ancient times."
Lin Zhu also thought of this and nodded.
Cheng Miao had a gloomy face, "In ancient times, there were a lot of feudal superstitions..."
"Ah!" Lin Zhu suddenly realized, "Sister Miaomiao, you are afraid of ghosts!"
Cheng Miao's face turned darker, "...Why do you mean I'm afraid of ghosts? You're not afraid?"
Lin Zhu shrank his neck and chuckled, "I'm not afraid. Ghosts are nothing to be afraid of."
Seeing that he didn't look like he was lying or trying to be strong, Cheng Miao was surprised. He didn't expect that Lin Zhu looked so gentle and weak, but he was not afraid of ghosts.
"It's more terrible not to get first place in the exam." Lin Zhu said seriously.
Cheng Miao: ...Very good, the child is almost driven crazy.
"Ding~ Players Cheng Miao and Lin Zhu have unlocked the branch story: Distant relatives, please take on the role seriously and save the Chang family master."
As soon as the prompt tone ended, it suddenly became noisy. You can hear the maids and women whispering to each other outside, and you can also hear the footsteps coming and going.
The candles in the room were shining brightly in people's eyes, and it looked like it was already getting late.
