"These are props. I want to ask my little brother to help me make some lanterns." Lian Ge's voice is very special, and it is cold and sweet, making people addicted to it.
Lin Zhu lowered his head and picked up the ball.
It is a recovery item that can restore 80% of a person's energy and physical strength.
Lin Zhu was dumbfounded. After going through so many dungeons, he knew that recovery items were rare. Although they were not as precious as wound medicine items, they were not much different.
Did this young lady just give me such awesome props just for asking for a few lanterns?
Lin Zhu looked at Lian Ge, a little unsure. He felt that this prop was a bit expensive, and Lin Zhu didn't want to take advantage of others by relying on his special skills.
Everyone in the dungeon is struggling to survive, and it's not easy. Of course, he won't let others take advantage of him.
Lian Ge leaned forward slightly, her waist outlining a perfect arc. She stretched out her jade-like fingers and touched the lantern made by Lin Zhu. When there is a lantern, I have one too.”
To put it bluntly, it was a buyout. Lian Ge knew very well that Lin Zhu would make a lantern for the four-person team within three days, and she wanted it too.
Who knows how long this lantern will last, it might break after just one trip. It would be stupid to just buy one lantern.
Lin Zhu shook the ball in his hand and threw it to Qi Jiajia.
Qi Jiajia held the small ball, looked at Lian Ge's seductive side face with complex eyes for a long time, and nodded.
Lin Zhu neatly pasted the lantern cloth cut by Qi Jiajia layer by layer on the lamp stand, hung the tassels, and handed it to Lian Ge.
"Similar to our lanterns, this was made on the spur of the moment. I don't know how long it will last, so I'd better come back early."
Lian Ge nodded and thanked her. She gently held the lantern and walked slowly out of the door. Her movements were as graceful as a dance drama.
Tan Wen watched Lian Ge's graceful figure disappear outside the door, his eyes darkened for a long time without saying a word.
In fact, staying here in the yard is far safer than going out to look for clues, but the more experienced players are, the clearer they are that although it is a team task, they cannot place their hopes on other people.
Tan Wen fumbled with the distinctive ring on his index finger, but in the end did not take out the prop.
Just wait another day, now he is not alone.
He found his younger brother. His younger brother was too weak. He couldn't exchange it with props. The props had to protect his brother's life.
He rubbed his face, sat down next to Qin Wu, and awkwardly joined the knitting team.
After sitting for a while, Xiao Xu put down the lantern in his hand and asked a little embarrassedly, "Brother Lin, can I ask a question? The lanterns in the horror dungeon are all made of human skin and bones, right?"
Lin Zhu kept moving his hands and nodded, "Yes, what's wrong?"
Xiaoxu exclaimed, "Doesn't that prove that there is something wrong with the lantern? Can't this be used as an entry point?"
Several other newcomers also looked at Lin Zhu with puzzled faces. They had wanted to ask for a long time, but had never dared to say anything.
Lin Zhu put down the lantern and answered seriously, "It is true that there is something wrong with the lantern. It is easy to think that its material is correct, but even if you know that it is a human skin lantern, will it be of any help to us to solve the problem now? You Do you know what the rules are in the dungeon? How to avoid death?"
Xiaoxu blushed after asking several questions in a row. Lin Zhu didn't feel pity for her and continued, "There are always some strange things in the horror dungeon, but don't focus on these, but think about what we are doing now." What do you need to do? And how do you clear the dungeon?"
"What's more," Lin Zhu picked up the lantern and continued to weave it, "so far there are no problems with the lantern."
Although Xiao Xu blushed when she was told that, she knew that Lin Zhu was teaching her the copy seriously, so she thanked her in a low voice and continued to make lanterns with Lin Zhu.
In the village, Cheng Miao and Qin Musong walked vigorously through the alleys.
Cheng Miao wanted to find the village chief's house, where chronicles and the like were usually kept. She wanted to see the records about the village's customs.
After asking several villagers about the direction of the village chief's home, Cheng Miao and the others ran that way.
Cheng Miao kept thinking about the way the villagers looked at the lantern in his hand. Was it ridicule?
why?
This lantern must be effective, otherwise they would have encountered trouble along the way.
Cheng Miao and the others stopped not far from the village chief's house. There were many villagers coming and going from the village chief's house, and they didn't know what they were doing.
They should be making lanterns at this time. It's a bit inappropriate to go in with such a big fanfare. It seems that we can only come at another time.
"Miaomiao, we have to go back." Qin Musong interrupted Cheng Miao's thoughts. Cheng Miao took a look and saw that the lantern paper in Qin Musong's hand had become warped in some places.
The lantern paper needed to be dried in the shade after being pasted on. They didn't have that time, and the heat generated by the burning candles had already caused the silk cloth, which was already weakly attached, to bulge.
Cheng Miao frowned and said, "Let's go."
Qin Musong had a strong sense of direction and they did not follow the way they came.
Qin Musong led Cheng Miao into the alley. Just when Cheng Miao was sighing that it would indeed be much faster to go back this way, Qin Musong's figure stopped.
"How..." Cheng Miao took a step forward and was about to ask, but suddenly his voice fell silent.
They were at a T-intersection, and they only had to walk two more intersections to reach the place where the lanterns were made.
To their right is a dead end. There is a person in the dead end, Zhou Ke.
Zhou Ke stood upright like a stake in the dark alley with his back to them. Although he couldn't see the person's front clearly, Cheng Miao was sure that Zhou Ke was in danger.
Zhou Ke was wearing a short-sleeved shirt when he came in. The arms that were now exposed outside the clothes looked like bacon that had been exposed to the sun for many days and had lost moisture. The wrinkled skin wrapped around the frame looked particularly scary.
Cheng Miao and Qin Musong stepped forward carefully and took a look. There were no households in the alley, and they were all dilapidated houses.
Zhou Ke stood like this in the middle of the alley. He looked as if he had been baked dry. His face was blurry, with only dry eye sockets and an enlarged mouth. Cheng Miao felt physically uncomfortable looking at the black hole in his mouth.
After repeatedly making sure that there were no extra clues, Cheng Miao and Qin Musong quickly returned to the yard where the lanterns were made. Not long after they entered the yard, two corners of the silk covering the lantern stand had fallen softly, leaving only one edge. Still stuck to it.
"What a risk." Cheng Miao breathed a sigh of relief. She was now sure that running around without a lantern was one of the reasons for Zhou Ke's death.
If they were in a busy alley, with lanterns hung at the door of every house, they might have been able to escape danger, but they ended up in such a deserted and abandoned alley.
Seeing Cheng Miao's return, Lin Zhu quickly gave Cheng Miao the props given by Lian Ge like a Yao Bao, and told him the deal.
Cheng Miao didn't say anything, just asked Lin Zhu to put away the props.
"Sister Miaomiao, aren't you holding it?" Lin Zhu lowered the corner of his mouth. The lantern he made at the beginning was not good and did not last long. He also saw the lantern that was broken as soon as he entered the door.
Cheng Miao raised her fingers and gave Lin Zhu a slap in the face, "What are you thinking about? You did a good job. Since this is a deal between you and Lian Ge, of course you have to hold the props."
Cheng Miao glanced at it. They had been out for two hours. Lin Zhu made seven lanterns. Each of the four received a parcel into the space. One was from Lian Ge. The remaining two Cheng Miao was worried that the village chief would come back. Check and prepare for delivery.
Xiaoxu was still putting gauze on his lantern, looking so serious and cautious that his face turned red.
Zhang Lele's hands were surprisingly skillful, and now the lantern has basically taken shape.
Tan Wen and Tan Wu made a lantern and made do with it. Tan Wen had no intention of letting his brother leave his side anyway.
On the other hand, Ye Zi and Song Yu were losing their temper because they were really not good at handicrafts, so the lamp stands were knitted in a mess.
Cheng Miao listened to Lin Zhu's explanation of the whole process and was too lazy to care about those two people. He didn't hide his secrets and told everyone about the discovery of Zhou Ke's body.
"Another...another one died!" Xiaoxu covered his mouth, his eyes wide open, there were no tears in his red eyes, they were all filled with frightening bloodshot eyes.

What about the supporting roles~
Is it sweet, or is it a little glassy?
Tangled, tangled [laughing]
