"We have to sacrifice one of our people..."
Shen Su lowered his head and half-raised his hand, which was blackened with charcoal and covered in scars, with a mocking smile on his lips.
Although only one person is chosen, it can alienate everyone.
No one wants to be that person.
They were suspicious of each other, wary of each other, falling apart, and then——
attacking each other.
"How about voting?"
The gloomy voice was dry and hoarse. The young man's eyebrows were covered by black-rimmed glasses. The white light reflected from the lenses blurred his eyes, and his black hair fell down.
No one answered.
There was silence in the venue, only the sound of breathing could be heard.
"Then wait until the last day to vote, and let us live a few more days first."
Chen Su raised his eyebrows, looking carefree and calm, as if he didn't care about the critical situation at this moment.
Several people were still silent.
The atmosphere reached freezing point.
A cold female voice suddenly sounded, and the man sneered: "Are you sure we can delay it until the end? If we keep delaying, the God of Death will let us go?"
Chen Su shifted his gaze to the woman who still had a cold expression and an unattainable attitude. Her cold star-like eyes stared at him, and her thin lips curled up almost imperceptibly.
"Then what do you mean? Choose one now? Then-"
"Why don't you come?"
He smiled a little evilly.
The two people's eyes met, and the sparks of lightning intertwined.
Suddenly, he looked away, strode over to Xu Zhixi, put his long arms around the girl's thin shoulders, "It's just a joke, Miss, do you think my joke is funny?"
His thick eyebrows were raised, and his smile was evil.
Xu Zhixi stretched out her hand to break away his hand on her shoulder and moved a few steps away.
"It's not funny. Also, don't touch it."
There was genuine disgust in her beautiful eyes, and her beautiful eyebrows wrinkled slightly.
"Chen Su, in this situation, you still have the heart to joke. Shouldn't we work together to find a solution to the problem? And you, Lin Xian, what about voting? Do we really want to vote one person to death?"
Zhou Jibai had a cold face and his eyes were full of rebuke to them.
"Then what do you think we should do? Everyone is waiting to die?"
Lin Xian's voice was still very cold and calm, a bit depressing in the silent environment.
Zhao Yin sobbed softly, burying her face and hugging her legs as she sat on the ground, her back rising and falling as she cried.
"Not necessarily, maybe we can break through."
Everyone looked at the person who made the sound, with sharp and cold eyebrows, a beautiful and slender figure, and a high ponytail that arced in mid-air.
She glanced at everyone with cold eyes, "The God of Death just said that if we try to destroy this notebook again, he will no longer keep his promise. Then the destruction of this notebook will definitely have a great impact on him. Moreover, if he can really kill If you drop us, there is no need to wait another five days.
"In other words, the five-day limit stipulated in the note is not only our survival time, but also a mechanism that he must abide by."
"I suspect this notebook is what controls him."
"If we destroy this notebook, we can all survive."
Zhou Jibai's stern brows burst into brilliance, "Senior, you mean that as long as we destroy this notebook, the God of Death will have nothing to do with us."
"cut--"
A scoff interrupted the conversation between the two.
The man raised his charred hands and raised his eyebrows, "I thought it was some new method. Isn't that what I just said? You are destroying it! Come on, come on, let your hands... Got burned once.”
The joy in Zhou Jibai's eyes dimmed, "Yeah, we have no chance of destroying this notebook." His fist hit the wall with a muffled sound.
Xu Zhixi blinked, opened her lips slightly and said, "How about we try other methods, such as burning with fire or soaking in water? Let's try to stay away from each other?"
Zhou Jibai frowned deeply, with scrutiny in his eyes, "Is it feasible?"
"How will you know if you don't try?"
Xu Zhixi curled her lips and smiled, her eyes danced and her long eyelashes fluttered. There was no usual hysteria or pretentious expression on the pale and delicate face.
Two bays of clear springs are sparkling.
Zhou Jibai narrowed his eyes. He always felt that the young lady who had been clinging to him had changed a little since yesterday.
Could it be that his words yesterday really changed her?
Xu Zhixi's proposal naturally had to be fulfilled by her.
The main reason is that Shen Su's matter comes first, and no one wants to take this risk.
The original owner's "Brother Ji Bai" has no use except for telling a few big words and smashing walls with his red eyes.
Xu Zhixi silently raised her middle finger in her heart.
She calmly walked into the kitchen with her notebook, only to realize that the character of the "squeamish and seductive young lady" in the copy seemed to be a bit broken.
Adhering to the principle that if she had a hard time, the rest of the people wouldn't have a good time either. She turned around and said in a deliberately arrogant voice: "Why should I be left alone? What if it hurts me!"
Although she is not very good at making semen.
But if you have never eaten pork, how can you still not see pigs running?
There are quite a few such characters around her.
"Tsk, the eldest lady is afraid of being alone, so I will reluctantly come to accompany you." The handsome man shook his clothes, strode to her side, winked, and said with a smile: "How about it? I’m interesting enough!”
The man is charming and handsome, and the girl is delicate and beautiful. They look perfect.
"When did their relationship become so good?"
Zhao Yin expressed doubts and glanced at the man with stern eyebrows from the corner of her eye, feeling secretly happy in her heart.
Sure enough, seeing the man's frown deepening, she continued: "But they are childhood sweethearts and are of the same family, so they really match each other."
Xu Zhixi moved two more steps to the side, quite speechless.
She stretched out her hand and turned on the natural gas. There were two puffs, and the blue flame began to burn. She paused for a few seconds and placed the notebook on top of it.
Shen Su was startled and reflexively retreated to avoid it.
Xu Zhixi stood still, her eyes fixed on the gray cowhide book that was swallowed up by the faint blue flames. There was no trace of burning, and it was resting quietly on it.
The flames were completely unable to do anything to it.
"useless."
She turned to the crowd and shook her head solemnly.
Next change to water.
Still the same, the book floated on the soft writing, as if separated, and no water soaked into the paper.
Everyone looked defeated.
Even the eyes of Su Yan, who had always been cold and charming, were much darker.
After a busy day, no matter whether it was slashed with swords, axes, water, fire, thunder and lightning, it could not be harmed at all.
No one dared to tear it up directly, after all, Shen Su's tragic example was still exposed.
Everyone else would feel frightened when they saw his hand, but Shen Su himself didn't care, while others were busy worrying about the cowhide book. He was quite nice, jumping up and down and making fun of her from time to time.
…
The hands point to nine o'clock in the evening.
Zhou Jibai suggested going back to rest.
Everyone looked at the old notebook alone on the table.
"I'll take it. After all, I found it in the room yesterday." Lin Xian pushed up his glasses, with a calm expression, and picked up the cowhide book with his pale and slender fingers.
So settled.
Everyone went upstairs to their rooms.
Shen Su followed Xu Zhixi upstairs.
"Chen Su, why are you following Xu Zhixi?"
A cold and steady voice sounded, and the young man frowned, his dark eyes flickering, and his cold eyes shot towards them.
"Of course I want to have a relationship with the eldest lady. President, you have already rejected the eldest lady. Are you still not allowing me to pursue the eldest lady?"
Shen Su raised his eyebrows and crossed his chest, standing on the floor and looking down at him, somewhat condescendingly, with a playful smile on his lips.
"Do you like Xu Zhixi?"
As soon as he spoke out, Zhou Jibai felt a little regretful.
Why should he mind their business?
Even if they are together, it has nothing to do with him.
"Chen Su, don't follow me!"
Xu Zhixi frowned slightly and scolded. Hearing this, Shen Su's eyes widened in disbelief, "Miss, you're not going to drive me away, are you?"
"certainly."
He looked at the arrogant girl, and then at the man standing downstairs, "Miss, he has rejected you like this, and you are still obsessed with him."
"What nonsense are you talking about! If I tell you to leave, just leave."
Shen Su tilted his head, waved his hand helplessly, and walked down the stairs.
His eyes met the cold man's eyes and intertwined for a moment.
The sight above her head seemed to be withdrawn, and Xu Zhixi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Xu Zhixi didn't let Shen Su leave because of Zhou Jibai.
It was entirely because she noticed that there were other people on the third floor.
As soon as she walked upstairs, a look came down from her head.
A cold and scrutinizing gaze.
A strong and dangerous sense of oppression invaded.
It was exactly the same feeling that the God of Death brought her.
However, she needed to meet the Grim Reaper alone.
Because she suspected that he was Jin An.
