Ye Zi became more excited and spoke faster and faster, "Yes, the function of lanterns is to ward off evil spirits, so if you go out with lanterns during the day, it will be fine, and Zhou Ke will die. And later on, if you don't use lanterns, Tan Wen will I clearly felt something."
Cheng Miao nodded slowly, "That seems to be the case so far, but we still shouldn't rely too much on lanterns."
Ye Zi said nothing, but it could be seen from the look on her lips that she was not very convinced by Cheng Miao.
Cheng Miao didn't say much. Another person that concerned her was Yan Qi.
They originally thought that Yan Qi was waiting for them in the old house, but what they heard from Lin Zhu and the others was that there was no sign of Yan Qi at all. Lin Zhu was cautious, fearing that when they went out, some villagers would come in and put something in the old house, leaving something at the door of each room. There was a hair stuck in the crack of the door.
When they came back, their hair was still there, and Yan Qi didn't come back at all.
"We can't control it anymore. Maybe he died with Zhou Ke a long time ago, but we didn't find the body." Tan Wen pulled Qin Wu and walked under the lantern. "No matter how powerful Yan Qi is, he will probably be targeted without a lantern." There is no escape from death.”
"Look, is that the village chief?!" Zhang Lele stepped on her feet and looked outside.
A small black spot carrying a dim lantern appeared in the depths of the alley. The figure was getting closer and closer. It was indeed the ricket-backed village chief.
Cheng Miao looked at the approaching figure of the village chief and frowned, "Why did he come from this direction? I remember his home is in another direction."
Others didn't know the specific direction of the village chief's house. Lin Zhu pointed it out to Cheng Miao and found that indeed the village chief had left that way before.
That road... Cheng Miao frowned and thought about it. After the veteran players came back on the first day, they summarized the general terrain of the village. That road was a dead end and there was nothing.
Cheng Miao couldn't allow Cheng Miao to think about why the village chief wanted to go to that dead end, because the man was already standing in front of them.
The village chief's old face looked a little gloomy under the dim light. He coughed twice and said in a hoarse voice, "We'll start worshiping ancestors today. There are rules for worshiping ancestors in the village. You can't leave the house after early morning. I gave you some." Gong Tong, if you need anything, please make do with me."
Everyone looked at him with ugly expressions as he raised the three buckets stacked on top of each other in his hand. Then they understood that the village chief meant that they should solve their personal physiological needs here.
"This...how can this be done!" Zhang Lele and Xiao Xu's faces turned red. Their shame overcame their fear, causing them to raise objections to the village chief.
The village chief didn't say much, or even reflect on their attitude. He put the bucket on the ground and turned to leave.
When Ye Zi saw that the lantern in the village chief's hand was about to go out, she quickly raised her voice and asked, "What about our lanterns at night? They are going out now."
The village chief stopped when he heard this, and slowly looked back at Ye Zi, with a mysterious arc on his lips, "Don't worry, there will be villagers who will come to light the lamps for you before dawn."
After receiving a positive reply, Ye Zi breathed a sigh of relief. No one spoke anymore. Everyone watched the village chief walk away in silence.
This time he was indeed heading towards his home, Cheng Miao thought silently.
Now two people are dead, and Yan Qi is still alive and dead. Zhang Lele and Xiao Xu are discussing changing rooms.
Li Fei didn't like Zhang Lele before, so she had to stay in Yan Qi's room. Now that Li Fei is dead, the two newcomers have already hugged each other.
Li Fei died in Ye Zi's room, and there was just one person missing. Zhang Lele could fill in, but Song Yu quit.
"There are not many veteran players now. Two people died in our room at once, and Zhang Lele has to change rooms. Is it possible that this mother...Su Shuang and I will live together tonight?" Song Yu's hair was wet with sweat. Put it on his forehead to give him a funny feeling.
He originally wanted to say sissy, but then he remembered that Su Shuang was also an old player, although he didn't think he was very reliable.
How reliable can a man be who worries about whether he has hand cream in the dungeon?
"Then what do you want to do?" Tan Wen held his elbows and looked at this big boy who was not at all attractive at first.
Copy is such a place, it can drive people crazy and turn them into another person.
Song Yu's eyes were glued to Cheng Miao. Qi Jiajia stretched her hands along her braids and shot him with bloody eyes.
Song Yu quickly looked away. Naturally, what he wanted most was to live in the same room as Cheng Miao.
Cheng Miao is powerful, he looks cold but is actually very kind. He is the only veteran player who will take the newcomers to analyze clues and remind them of things to pay attention to.
Not to mention that each of Cheng Miao's teammates looked more powerful than the other, and Qin Musong was a natural protective umbrella.
However, it was impossible for Cheng Miao and the four of them to separate. The remaining Liange and Song Yu had great experience, so he could only focus on Ye Zi.
There are two old players in Ye Zi's room, but it is full.
It's impossible for Tan Wu to be separated from Tan Wen, and those two girls have to stick together. Gee, that's really annoying.
Seeing Song Yu standing there nervously chewing his nails, Tan Wen looked at the sky, frowned and said, "My brother and I are going to Su Shuang's room. Since you want to come here so much, I'll give it to you."
Song Yu wanted to say something else, but Tan Wen had already brought Tan Wu into the room. Su Shuang looked at Song Yu with a half-smile, then lazily fanned the wind with his hands and went back.
Song Yu swallowed his dissatisfaction. This was the only way. Tan Wen must take care of his younger brother, so it didn't mean much whether he was there or not.
Song Yu felt relieved when he thought about how much Ye Zi had taken care of him on the first day, and followed the already impatient Ye Zi back.
Cheng Miao looked outside the door crack in the house. There were no windows in the old house. They had no idea what was going on outside. There was only a thin line in the door crack and nothing could be seen.
"If you turn off the lights for a while, you can feel it if the lanterns outside are lit." Qi Jiajia asked Lin Zhu to play with bees while distractedly talking to Cheng Miao.
Qi Jiajia is young and has the best perception. Cheng Miao discovered last night that after turning off the lights, the room was truly dark. It was a darkness without any light.
Always feeling that there was something that he had overlooked, Cheng Miao lay on the bed and sorted out everything today.
That madman... Cheng Miao was still very concerned. That madman looked very similar to Zhang Min. Who could it be?
Could it be the real Zhang Min?
No, the lunatic was not locked up. If it was really the village chief who was confusing the real thing with the fake thing, then he should at least hide the real thing.
Time flowed quickly with his thoughts, and it was almost time. Qin Musong winked at everyone who was already on the kang, and pulled off the light cord.
The room instantly fell into pure black, with only a hint of blush coming from the crack of the door.
