There's definitely something wrong with this murder mystery game-Chapter 673
Chapter 673: Chapter 574 Birds of a Feather Flock Together Chapter 673: Chapter 574 Birds of a Feather Flock Together [The theater is now over.]
In the end, everyone listened to Miss Wang’s awkwardly improvised hour-long adventure in women’s clothing, finally reaching the conclusion of the script.
That situation just now was really too embarrassing!
Although the bride had temporarily lost her hostility, no one dared let their guard down, fearing she might suddenly go mad again.
Fortunately, the ending had no other twists aside from the awkward conversation.
[About to enter the script settlement interface.]
Inside Script Space.
A young man lay lazily on the couch, swiping to the settlement interface to take a look.
[Mission One: Cremate the bride’s body.
...
(Completed)]
[Mission Two: Retrieve the Soul Nurturing Bead from the bride’s mouth.
(Failed)]
[Mission Three: Investigate the secrets of Osmanthus Village.
(Completed)]
[Mission Four: Find the murderer of the villagers.
(Completed)]
[Mission Five: Survive.
(Completed)]
Looking at the mission interface, the young man hooked up the corner of his mouth and sneered.
“Who is this Mr.
Wang player, not knowing the iron rule in horror movies that those who are alone will surely die, and yet daring to tamper with the bride’s body by himself?”
However, he guessed that this player probably wanted to hog all the performative points.
After leaving the script, his previous memories returned—
In this script, the performative value added by the ordinary main missions wasn’t much, players needed to delve deeper into the storyline.
Each player’s role had information known and unknown.
This game required them to cooperate with each other for maximum benefit.
Even the village head had no idea that the Wang family had stuffed a “Soul Stabilizing Bead” into the bride’s mouth, nor did he know that all the Osmanthus Trees in the village were personally planted by the bride.
If Mr.
Wang had cooperated and the players continued to dig for the truth, they would find out that the “Soul Stabilizing Bead” was fake.
Decades ago, the Wang family feared the bride’s Resentment Energy was too strong and would cause trouble.
By coincidence, on the seventh day following the bride’s death, a Taoist priest passed through Osmanthus Village.
The Wang family asked the priest to perform magic rites at the graveyard, but he instead stuffed a “Soul Nurturing Bead” into the bride’s mouth and deceived the villagers into thinking it was a “Soul Stabilizing Bead” that could suppress a fierce ghost.
The priest did a good deed without leaving his name, and afterward, Osmanthus Village was caught in the vortex of the bride’s resentment.
It took the Wang family two years to realize they had been deceived by the priest, but by then they were helpless and could only leave behind Handwritten Notes to warn their descendants.
That was the storyline Mr.
Wang needed to follow.
After checking the script settlement, the young man lay on the couch staring at the ceiling, somewhat curious about the real ending of “Double Happiness.”
Sixty years later.
Osmanthus Village almost repeated the events of the past.
Those five playable characters were the center of this story.
Mr.
Wang was the Patriarch Wang of that time.
The cross-dressing Miss Wang was the legitimate descendant of the Wang family of this generation and the young Mr.
Wang who died young after taking a fancy to the bride.
Wang Tiezhu was the child who sacrificed himself to save the bride and also the final straw that gave her utter despair.
The female scholar was probably the bride from those days.
And the village head, he knew the entire truth and was the witness to this tragedy from beginning to end.
Sixty years later.
A different yet similar story unfolded once again.
!
“What are you daydreaming about?”
A young man in a white robe walked out from the Light Gate.
He glanced around the living room and saw the young man lying on the couch like a log.
He immediately approached and said, “Finished with the script, how was the loot?
Never mind, that’s not important.
The teacher is busy recently, so I’ll be taking care of you for the time being; you can ask me if there’s anything you don’t understand.”
He spoke rapidly like rapid-fire yet was articulate and clear in his thoughts.
The young man suddenly sat up and asked earnestly, “Qi, then let me ask you, does the ‘Double Happiness’ script have a real ending?”
As his words fell, the room fell silent.
The man looked at him expressionlessly for a while, then shook his head, “I thought about it and didn’t find any relevant news, so does that matter?
What did you encounter in the script?”
“Never mind, that’s not important.”
The young man threw the sentence back.
He thought carefully, what was the use of worrying about the ending of the script, it would be irrelevant to them anyway.
“`
“Well, let’s head to the training ground now.
I will be the one to train you during this time,” Qi said without dwelling on the young man’s dilemma, and turned to leave as he spoke.
“Training?
Read lat𝙚st chapters at fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓ Only.
Qi!
I’m an archer, not a warrior!”
The young man’s expression instantly collapsed at the mention of training.
“We’re not warriors either.”
“But you’re freaking fighting with a sword!”
“You can use a sword too.”
“But I’m an archer!”
“…”
Regardless, the young man was still dragged to the special training ground developed by the Script Space.
His style was very different from that of his senior brother.
Qi was clad in a white robe with a jade crown and long hair flowing, an ethereal figure as though from the heavens, using his long sword with a dashing and sharp elegance, his Qinggong, swordsmanship, and Spiritual Energy very impressive!
While he was just an ordinary person going ‘tat tat tat’ with a submachine gun.
Of course, you couldn’t blame him.
After all, he was a student who had just joined the sect, ranked twenty-second, still using his own preferred methods of combat, and hadn’t had the chance to take on the celestial aura from the twenty-one senior brothers and sisters.
And that celestial aura of his seniors also came from the style of their teacher.
Who could blame them when their teacher was a king of showoffs, who loved to make a grand entrance, soaring through the skies on his sword with an aura of immortality!
As the saying goes.
“Like teacher, like pupil.”
“Qi, let me take a break,” said the young man, putting away his silver cannon and sitting down on the ground to catch his breath.
As he opened the Player’s Handbook, he said, “My script should be edited by now.
I have to hurry and add someone as a friend so I can find them to play with next time I enter.”
Qi flew over and asked, “Is he any good?”
The young man clicked his tongue in wonder, “Amazingly good!”
He scrolled through the script listings and sure enough, saw that “Double Happiness” had been edited and uploaded.
He immediately clicked on the video and rapidly located the actor of Wang Tiezhu to follow!
Then, he sent a greeting:
[Bro, I’m your grandpa, ha!]
Qi stood behind him, silently looking at this greeting, and asked, “Are you planning to team up with him next time?”
“Yeah,” the young man replied.
Qi asked, “You’re not enemies?”
“How could we be enemies?
Let me show you his performance in the script.
In the end, it was nearly up to this guy to save the day.
He’s so strong it’s hard to believe he’s just a level two player!”
Qi fell silent for a moment.
Then he said, “Well, if you managed to leave the script alive, it proves he must be quite easy-going.”
Running his hand over his chin, the young man pondered, “His temper is indeed not bad, but there’s something incomprehensible about him.
When I’m around him, I always feel like I could be tricked at any moment.”
Qi questioned, “And you still want to play with him?”
“Playing tricks keeps you healthy!”
Qi: “…”
Who knows if after some time, the teacher’s Life Medallion will have one more ‘jar’ to it, just hope this little disciple can last a bit longer.
…
…
Meanwhile, in another part of the Script Space.
Xu Shuo finished reviewing the script’s reward settlement.
But before closing the Player’s Handbook, he rarely checked his followers list, intending to clear away the accumulating notifications and see if anyone like the Capital Commandant was harassing him.
Suddenly, a new greeting message jumped to the top of the list.
[Bro, I’m your grandpa, ha!]
Xu Shuo paused.
Who is this with such heavy resentment?
He opened the person’s player profile.
And then looked through the list of scripts.
After a long while.
Xu Shuo made a small move.
Added to the blacklist.
