MTL - Be a Social Cow In An Infinite Game-Chapter 18 Entering the New World for the First Time (18)

In order to relieve the crisis, they extinguished the torches with water, but the torches were not easy to use after the water. In order to avoid accidents during the negotiation, the two went to collect new torches before going to the backyard.

Fortunately, after working for a long time, they actually found a lot of new torches for them in the back of the kitchen.

I took two, hid the rest, and when everything was ready, I went to the backyard.

Today's backyard is also dead.

Xia Zhiyi poked her head around for a couple of glances, then looked away, walked back to the steps, and sat down beside Jing Ruyu.

They have to discuss it carefully before going in.

The two sat side by side on the stone steps, looking up at the sky.

The weather today is fine, cloudless, blue sky, and the sun is very strong at noon.

I didn't expect them to be busy for so long, and it was already noon.

"Lunch should have been delivered to the room." Xia Zhiyi turned to look at Jing Ruyu and asked, "Are you hungry?"

Jing Ruyu didn't deny it: "Well, a little bit."

When she was about to comfort Xia Zhiyi that she could go back to eat after the talk, the other party stepped forward and said, "Extend your hand."

"?"

She didn't know why, but she did it anyway.

Then she saw Xia Zhiyi extend her sleeves, the cuffs were aligned with her palms, and the hand holding the cuffs suddenly loosened - a fresh apple fell down.

Then Xia Zhiyi took out another apple from the other sleeve.

"It was fine when I was in the kitchen. Pad your stomach first." Xia Zhiyi wiped it roughly with her sleeve twice, and took a big bite, "Oh, it's quite sweet and crunchy."

Jing Ruyu was startled slightly, and couldn't help smiling.

Seeing her smile, Xia Zhiyi was inexplicably embarrassed, and couldn't help explaining: "You know I wouldn't do such sneaky things in the real world..."

Jing Ruyu nodded with a smile: "Well, of course I know."

They know each other well, and no one knows each other better than they do.

Xia Zhiyi nodded, as if thinking of something, suddenly stopped biting the apple, with a frightened expression: "This can't be Miss's fruit!"

Damn, she won't just randomly win a big prize, right? !

"Won't."

Jing Ruyu calmly took a bite of the apple.

"Ghost King's props will definitely not be left lying around, and now there is no Xiaoqiao to supervise, so this is an ordinary fruit, let's eat it with peace of mind."

Judging from the experience of the previous few times, this is a ghost king with a sense of ritual.

The fruit she gives must be served by the butler himself, and the butler must personally supervise the player to eat it.

So whether it is the ghost king's fruit or ordinary fruit, it can be judged by Xiaoqiao.

"Very sweet." Jing Ruyu praised warmly.

Xia Zhiyi immediately bent her eyes: "That's right."

This is a rare moment of relaxation for the two of them in this dungeon.

It was probably because they had been tense for several days and finally relaxed, the two of them unconsciously procrastinated for a little while, and ate the apples slowly.

With enough rest and a full stomach, they began to discuss how to negotiate.

The most indispensable thing in negotiations is sincerity.

As the active party, the sincerity they want to show must be different.

Xia Zhiyi cupped her face in thought, while Jing Ruyu was silent.

After a while, the two blurted out in tacit understanding.

"Torch."

Looking at each other, the two picked up the torch and stepped into the backyard again.

Xia Zhiyi, as a super-brave social animal and a senior social animal, bravely took on the task of negotiating. When he came up, he said directly to the whole yard of dirt: "We want to discuss a cooperation with you."

no respond.

She didn't care, and she didn't expect that the things underneath would respond to her immediately.

As a social animal who has worked for many years and negotiated countless deals, it is not her style to give up here.

She squatted down with a smile on her face, picked up a thin tree branch at random, and poked the ground: "Everyone, we don't mean to offend, this time I really have an important cooperation and want to talk to you.

"We already know the grievances you suffered in the Gu family, the inhuman exploitation of you by the Gu family, and your resentment and resentment. We sympathize with you and want to work with you to rewrite this unfair fate so that you can resist and Vent, you can let out a bad breath."

Jing Ruyu looked around, but still no one answered.

Xia Zhiyi was still talking: "I think you all know very well that if we want to leave here, we can only go through that door, and there is no way for you to leave here.

So in exchange for a chance to pass safely, we want to make a deal with you—tomorrow we will help you lure the ghost king here to take revenge, and you don't want to be an obstacle for us to leave. "

"As for how to take revenge, I'll help you figure it out."

She smiled and held up the torch.

"This sharp sword that scares you can also be the best weapon in your hands."

"Think about it, everyone, the opportunity is only once, and the opportunity will never come again.

"If we die, we will die, but if you give up cooperating with us, you don't know when the next opportunity will come, and there won't even be a next time.

"At that time, you will be trapped here forever, under these mounds, you can't even take a step out of this backyard.

"If you are like this, you won't get the ghost king's sympathy. She won't look at you more, and she won't generously let you go free. She will only use you endlessly as her watchdogs. No matter how unwilling or unwilling you are, Unable to roll over."

"Think about it.

"Aren't you wronged? Don't you hate her? Don't you want to seek revenge from her?

"The most important thing is, don't you want to kill her and become the ghost king yourself, controlling everything here?"

The words of temptation fell clearly on the ground, seeping into every inch of the ground.

The sun shines, as if it can hide every trace of evil on this soil.

The wind blew, but there was still no answer.

Xia Zhiyi looked up at Jing Ruyu, and the two reached a tacit understanding from each other's eyes: try one last time.

"This is our torch. If there is no fire, we can't hurt you. Let's put it here."

In order to show sincerity, Jing Ruyu had no choice but to throw the two torches away, and then pulled Xia Zhiyi who got up to retreat.

Xia Zhiyi said, "I've given you the torch, please think about it and discuss it, we'll go out first and come back later.

"If everyone agrees to cooperate, please leave the torch where it is and let us know, thank you."

The two then left the backyard.

After they left, the backyard was still very quiet.

After a long time, the soil closest to the torch began to loosen, and a white bony hand protruded from the ground, grabbing the torch...

…

People are iron and rice is steel. If you don't eat a meal, you will feel hungry, even if you just eat an apple.

Xia Zhiyi and Jing Ruyu finished their lunch and replenished their energy before rushing back to the backyard full of anticipation.

This time they did not bring new torches in, so as not to be misunderstood that they were insincere and all previous efforts were wasted.

Xia Zhiyi looked expectantly, hoping that her divorce plan would succeed.

As a result, when they went back, the torch had disappeared.

transaction failed.

"..."

Standing in front of the white wall, she sighed deeply.

"This trick really doesn't work."

Jing Ruyu also sighed softly, and then comforted her: "It's okay, we did our best. Go back and think of other ways."

"Um."

The two turned around in disappointment, and had to think of ways to deal with tomorrow.

"I hope tomorrow will be a good day," Xia Zhiyi said.

…

Tomorrow is the ghost king's wedding night. The five of them gathered together again to discuss countermeasures.

But no one knows where the criteria for "attending a wedding" are.

Does it matter if you participate, or do you have to watch them complete the ceremony?

Xia Zhiyi rested her chin in thought.

Liuliu said: "If there is no clear regulation, then you can take advantage of the loopholes?"

When everyone thought about it, they felt that this was the truth.

When there is a loophole, it should be drilled or must be drilled.

Especially at such a dangerous time, if they don't act anymore, they will be here to confess after the Ghost King finishes worshiping!

But because they don't know tomorrow's wedding arrangements and the time is tight, they finally decided to use "going as the best plan" after discussing.

No matter what happens at that time, as long as the ghost king is not by their side, they will seize the opportunity to run away.

Jing Ruyu was in charge of drawing the ghost king's attention, stopping her and creating a chance to escape.

Xia Zhiyi held her face together: "I'm worried that when the ghost king meets Huo tomorrow, he will use those servants as her meat shield again..."

There is no doubt that ghost kings are afraid of fire, but humans are not.

She believed that the King of Ghosts could definitely do such a thing as using servants as human shields to stand in front of her.

Jing Ruyu turned her head to look at the moon hanging high outside the house.

Tomorrow, life and death are on the line.

…

Maybe it was the last day, the wedding day came in the blink of an eye, and it was still cloudy.

The players woke up early, thinking of today's big wedding, everyone couldn't sleep well.

This is the first time they have participated in such an unpleasant wedding.

Xia Zhiyi stood at the door, looking up at the overcast clouds in the sky, feeling speechless.

Jing Ruyu walked up to her, and heard her whisper: "The weather is so bad, why don't you get married..."

It's a pity that the new world is very cruel, and no one can stop the ghost king from getting married.

But after a while, Xiaoqiao appeared at the gate of the courtyard, put her hands in her sleeves, and said solemnly: "The auspicious time is coming, it's time to attend my lady's wedding banquet, please come with me."

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and reluctantly followed.

Xia Zhiyi looked at Xiaoqiao's back, and asked Jing Ruyu in a low voice, "Will Xiaoqiao help the Ghost King deal with us today?"

Jing Ruyu thought for a while and said, "No, her home game is tomorrow. If she can kill people today, there is no need to set a clearing time in New World."

Xia Zhiyi nodded and felt relieved. As long as the task NPCs don't help the Ghost King, their burden can be lightened a bit.

Jing Ruyu added another sentence: "Wait and see what happens, pay attention to safety."

In fact, at this moment, Xia Zhiyi was still thinking of a way.

There are always more solutions than difficulties. Maybe she can really come up with a perfect solution that won't hurt anyone?

As a result, when she arrived at the wedding venue, she didn't even have a clue about how to sit in the guest seat.

The wedding venue was very spacious, with beaming and eerie red cloth hanging everywhere.

A neat red carpet was spread in the middle, and there were five tables on both sides, where the five of them were spread out.

Xia Zhiyi was unlucky, and was placed at the table in the front row, facing the worship hall, so that he could not only appreciate the ghost king's worship hall nearby, but also become the lucky one of the ghost king's subordinates as soon as possible.

She subconsciously turned her head to look for Jing Ruyu, and found that she was on the other side of her, also in the first row.

Xia Zhiyi: "..."

At first glance, this ranking is full of grudges!

The rest were in the seats behind them, a little safer.

She also noticed that Jing Ruyu was looking at another table at this time, following her gaze, it was Xiaoya's table.

Looking at it, she frowned.

Xiaoya was trembling, her face was pale, as if she had bumped into something terrifying.

Xia Zhiyi couldn't see clearly, so her gaze inadvertently passed over the people around Xiaoya, she was taken aback for a moment, and then gasped.

—Gao Hui!

I saw him sitting next to Xiaoya in that black suit, his face was bloodless and expressionless, he just sat so quietly, like a piece of wood.

Taking a closer look, the people around them are all like this, and the styles of clothes on their bodies are also different, but there is one thing in common: modern clothes.

In an instant, Xia Zhiyi suddenly understood something.

These "guests" around them, couldn't they be the players who died here...?
