The door outside suddenly slammed shut with a loud bang, and footsteps came from the living room, accompanied by the sound of sharp metal scratching across the floor tiles.
It's hard to hear.
Xu Zhixi called out: "Jin'an?" But no one responded.
Looking at a vague black shadow vaguely reflected on the floor of the bedroom door, her intuition told her that it was not Gu Jin'an. She covered her lips that wanted to scream, moved her body slowly, and hid under the bed on the other side.
There was a rapid buzzing sound - the sound of a chainsaw.
Xu Zhixi held her breath completely, holding her phone tightly in her hand.
"Intruder... don't hide. Your Excellency has been deceived by the skin-changing ghost. You can't escape." His strange laughter came from the darkness. "Jiejiejiejie——"
Xu Zhixi turned on her phone and dialed Gu Jinan's number. The only one who can save her now is Gu Jinan. The phone beeped, and she prayed wildly that he had brought it.
"Intruder, it turns out you are here, I found you..."
Xu Zhixi's hand shook and her phone fell to the ground.
The light of the mobile phone was reflected on the metal blade of the electric saw. The blood-red eyes in the bandages stared at her closely, with her mouth wide open and the tip of her scarlet tongue licking the corners of her mouth.
The chainsaw's teeth rotated rapidly, gradually approaching her.
"Jiejiejiejie——"
"If you kill me, Gu Jin'an will be angry..."
Xu Zhixi backed away, and finally had no choice but to retreat to the wall. Her eyes were wide and trembling as she stared at the chainsaw getting closer and closer to her body.
"Jie Jie Jie Jie - you are just a plaything for adults, adults don't care at all."
Xu Zhixi covered her eyes and could only cry silently.
The buzzing in her ears became more intense, as if it was about to pierce her eardrums. Cold sweat ran down her back, and her heartbeat in her chest was like a drum.
However, in the blink of an eye, the buzzing sound quickly moved away, followed by the sound of a giant object falling and hitting the ground.
Xu Zhixi lowered her hand covering her face and saw the bandaged chainsaw killer lying on the ground, with a black tentacle piercing his chest and his blood-red eyes wide open. Behind him is the chainsaw still in operation.
The man's clear voice sounded: "I warned you, don't hurt my people. How dare you disobey my order, you deserve to die——"
Another tentacle strangled his bandaged neck.
"Sir, spare my life, I will never dare to hurt my wife again..."
The tentacles around his neck were loosened, and even the ones on his chest were put away.
"Madam? That's a good title... I'll spare your life for now and get away from me. My wife thinks you look scary, so don't scare her."
The Chainsaw Killer immediately got up, took his mask, and left in a hurry.
Xu Zhixi leaned slumped against the wall, looking at Gu Jin'an blankly. There were still a few tentacles swaying behind him, but now Xu Zhixi didn't feel scared, but was very kind.
She stretched out her arms and choked: "I want to hug--" The girl was already sick, and her beautiful little face had lost all color at this time, and her lips were trembling. Her beautiful eyes were red, the tip of her nose was also red, and crystal tears kept rolling down.
The man leaned down and picked up her soft body.
"Don't be afraid——"
He held her on the bed with careful movements, seeming to have returned to the tenderness and consideration he had during the day.
Xu Zhixi hugged his waist tightly and sobbed softly.
Her mind was in chaos now. In front of the powerful ghosts, she was as helpless as others said. In the last dungeon, the powerful ghost she met was Xu Xuan. Apart from being teased for a while at the beginning, she never really felt the disparity in power between her and the ghost.
To survive in this copy, she can only...can only rely on Gu Jin'an.
A huge feeling of powerlessness swept through her body.
"Can you turn on the lights?"
"I went to check. It's because the water and electricity bills are gone. I'll top up tomorrow."
"Yeah." Xu Zhixi responded softly, "Jin'an, I'm a little tired and want to sleep..."
"Then let's go to bed first."
Xu Zhixi was lying on the bed, with the man's body behind her, holding her tightly, with cold tentacles wrapped around his legs and waist. But she was not as repulsive as she was at the beginning, and her eyelids became heavier and heavier until her consciousness gradually disappeared.
…
The next day, early morning.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she realized that Gu Jin'an was no longer around her, and she suddenly felt panicked. It wasn't until the bedroom door was opened and the man in an apron appeared with a smile that she breathed a sigh of relief.
"You can get up and have breakfast."
Gu Jinan returned to his normal appearance during the day, with a smile gleaming in his gentle amber eyes.
"Well, I'm going to take a shower first and then eat."
The corners of Xu Zhixi's lips raised and her eyebrows curved.
The warm water moisturized her skin, and Xu Zhixi sighed. She now understood that the only way to get through this instance safely was to hold on to Gu Jin'an's thigh.
According to yesterday's strength comparison, Gu Jin'an should be the big boss of this dungeon. Although she found it exciting to fall in love with him from the beginning, what happened last night was still too exciting.
But...why did Gu Jinan's memory of Xu Xuan only appear for a moment?
"Xu Xuan" said "They are all me". Could it be that the bosses in this instance are all the same person?
Xu Zhixi thought of a setting that often appears in novels-soul fragments. A person's soul is divided into many fragments and scattered everywhere. Only by gathering can the dragon be summoned, ah, it should be to become a complete person.
Could it be that "Xu Xuan" and "Gu Jin'an" are... Then there are other fragments.
"AN! AN! AN!" Xu Zhixi frantically called the system in her head. The sizzling sound of electricity appeared for a moment, and then disappeared.
"Don't pretend to be dead!"
AN: "Player Xu Zhixi, number 5201314, what are your requirements?"
"Is your dungeon BOSS the soul fragment of the same person?"
The electric current buzzed twice, then completely silent.
Not denying it is acquiescing.
…
a certain space.
System 1: "She actually discovered the secret!"
Another system: "It's all because the Lord God loves her too much, and everything is exposed! She looks so thin, why is the Lord God so good to her?"
AN: "My lover, please don't discuss it casually. If the Lord God wakes up and finds out that we are talking about her, he will tear us all apart."
The other systems did not dare to say anything for a moment.
The space is shrouded in huge blue flowing data. In the center of the place, on a huge high seat, a handsome man with silver hair is casually wearing a purple and silver-patterned robe, with his eyes closed.
The long silver eyelashes shivered with broken light, and his eyes opened, revealing a pair of golden eyes, and then closed again.
AN: "The Lord God has fallen asleep again, and I have to go back. It is the only hope for the Lord God to wake up."

Xu Zhixi (C-level): I was fine last night, and the ghosts around me didn’t attack me.
After Xu Zhixi typed this line, she closed the screen.
"I just read the news."
She answered Gu Jinan's question.
