Bai Xiaoxiao's expression began to change when he mentioned what happened in the house.
It was a look of fear.
After seeing Bai Xiaoxiao's expression, Ning Qiushui couldn't help but become curious about what happened in the hut.
In his understanding, Bai Xiaoxiao is a very calm and collected woman. She has encountered many life and death crises. Regardless of her experience, her psychological quality alone is far beyond the comparison of ordinary people!
However, even as calm as Bai Xiaoxiao, she actually felt scared at this moment!
But on the other hand, Bai Xiaoxiao didn't seem to want to explain the matter so clearly, and just said vaguely:
"... After that incident, most of the people in the hut died... The old people were almost dead. We had to take over their positions, and at the same time inherited their will. Occasionally we would go to some dangerous blood gates... mission accomplished."
Although Bai Xiaoxiao did not explain specifically what this matter was, Ning Qiushui could guess that it should be related to the puzzle piece in the hut.
"Are they...for that puzzle piece?"
Bai Xiaoxiao was silent for a long time, and finally nodded slowly.
She sighed.
“What would happen if we didn’t intentionally pursue this piece of the puzzle?”
Ning Qiushui asked another question that he was more concerned about.
Bai Xiaoxiao glanced at Ning Qiushui, with a hint of bitterness on the corner of her lips.
"I know what you want to ask. Anyway, as long as everyone keeps participating in low-difficulty Blood Gate missions, the survival rate can be greatly guaranteed. Especially after possessing a ghost weapon, it is almost impossible to overturn. You must think so, right? ?”
Ning Qiushui nodded.
indeed so.
Bai Xiaoxiao sighed.
"In the mist world, each selected person must go through nine blood doors. The interval between the first three blood doors is one week, the interval between the fourth and sixth blood doors is six months, and the interval between the seventh and ninth blood doors is The door lasts for one year, and each blood door will be more difficult than the previous one. Of course, except for your special situation, according to statistics, the mortality rate of the seventh door is as high as 95.796%. Not to mention the eighth and ninth blood gates, they are almost certain to die..."
"So in order to leave this place and escape the curse before the seventh bloody door comes, every member of the Conspiracy House will try their best to collect puzzle pieces!"
"The puzzle pieces will only appear after the fourth difficulty blood gate."
"Only by getting the complete puzzle piece of the treacherous house can you be qualified to go to the end of the misty world."
Ning Qiushui frowned.
"The end of the misty world, what exactly is there?"
Bai Xiaoxiao shook her head, and confusion appeared in her originally clear eyes.
"I don't know... No one who has entered the end of the mist world has ever come out."
"In this case, why can you be sure that you can break the blood gate curse after entering the end of the mist world?"
Faced with this sharp question from Ning Qiushui, Bai Xiaoxiao remained silent for a long time.
"Actually, sometimes, you may not necessarily be sure that this is the case..."
"Human beings are very fragile creatures... You have to find a way to live, right?"
Ning Qiushui and Bai Xiaoxiao looked at each other for a while and nodded.
"indeed so."
indeed so.
Instead of facing the nearly 100% mortality rate of the seventh blood gate, it is better to find a way to put together the puzzle pieces and go to the end of the misty world to see what is there...
Even if I die, I can at least satisfy my curiosity before dying.
For these cursed people in the hut, the pieces of the puzzle are more of a psychological comfort and a hope of survival.
For a group of people living in despair, nothing is more precious than hope.
Ning Qiushui didn't ask much about the subsequent disputes between Bai Xiaoxiao and the others and the others.
For one thing, he can't help now.
Secondly, Ning Qiushui didn't like to wade into muddy water casually.
As for if Bai Xiaoxiao needs his help, that's another matter.
"Okay, it's almost three o'clock. We've been chatting for such a long time. Go to bed quickly. There's still a tough battle to be fought tomorrow!"
Ning Qiushui nodded. He probably understood some of the situations he would face later.
He got up and went to the room, ready to rest.
Behind her, Bai Xiaoxiao supported her chin with one hand and turned her head to look at Ning Qiushui's back. Her eyes were slightly lost in thought, and she didn't know what she was thinking...
…
Finally we waited for the dawn of the sixth day.
Everyone was not in a particularly good state of mind, because they had to keep vigil last night, and because Guangxiu, the big boss who was suspected of being the bloody door on the top of the back mountain, came down, everyone felt a knot in their hearts and did not dare to sleep too much.
At dawn the next day, everyone came to the hall of the cafeteria early to wait, wanting to have a good breakfast, and then go to the village to look for the head of the monk [the Merciful One].
But today, there was something strange.
The men and women in the cafeteria who were supposed to come to work early in the morning were unexpectedly absent from work today.
Everyone waited from about five o'clock in the morning to nine o'clock in the morning, but no staff came to the canteen.
This sudden strange situation seemed to cast a shadow over everyone's hearts, and nothing felt right.
"What's going on today? Why didn't even the cook come?"
"After the goddess died, they didn't even act anymore, right?"
Liu Chengfeng, who had not slept well all night and was hungry, stared and cursed in great displeasure.
He came to the entrance of the canteen, looked at the road in the distance, and after confirming that no one was coming, he seemed to have lost all his patience and ran to the kitchen.
After a while, Liu Chengfeng walked out with a pot of porridge.
"Hey, this is the only thing left in the house, so let's make do with it..."
After Liu Chengfeng finished speaking, he burped.
Brine smell.
Seeing everyone's weird looks, Liu Chengfeng coughed a few times and his face turned red.
"I just... just ate an extra braised egg. It took me a long time to find that thing..."
No one blamed him. After all, if it weren't for Liu Chengfeng, they wouldn't be able to have this breakfast.
After simply filling their stomachs, everyone packed up their things and walked towards the interior of the village.
The weather today was not very good. It was already a bit gloomy. When everyone entered the woods, there was thunder above their heads, and then it started to rain lightly.
Tick--
The light rain hit the forest leaves, and the dense crackling sound made everyone feel uneasy.
They pushed aside the heavy bushes and finally arrived at the entrance of the village, but were shocked by the terrifying scene inside!
