Be a Social Cow In An Infinite Game: Chapter 14 Entering the New World for the First Time 14
Everything was silent, Xia Zhiyi's brain was running at high speed.
Why do the servants in the Gu mansion say "Miss" instead of "Master", why everything in the mansion must be done according to the lady's preferences, why does the dead Gao Hui appear in the lady's room...
Now, everything has an answer.
The ghost king is close at hand.
But when she thought of Miss Gu eating people, she couldn't help but get goosebumps all over again, but the more she got to this point, the less she could panic.
She didn't want to hang up here so soon.
Enduring the cold, she straightened her waist, tried not to look at Gao Hui's hands, and calmly said to Miss Gu, "I'm looking at Miss Gu's skirt, it's very pretty, the pattern is beautiful, and the color matching is perfect, just look at it." I knew it was expensive."
After hearing this, Ms. Gu giggled, she seemed to be in a good mood: "You are very discerning."
Then he hooked his fingers, and there was an indescribable temptation in his voice: "But how can you see clearly from such a distance? Let's get closer and have a look, come on."
Although Xia Zhiyi is reckless, she is not so reckless, so she said: "No need, thank you for your consideration, Miss, don't worry, I can see clearly even standing here, my bilateral vision is 5.3, good job!"
Miss Gu: "..."
Who cares if your eyesight is good or not!
Miss Gu didn't answer the question.
The two sides stalemate for a moment.
Xia Zhi retreated a little without any trace, Jing Ruyu was not there, now only the open door was her sense of security, but fortunately, this ghost king didn't look like he was going to attack her.
She did not forget the purpose of her trip.
Mr. Gu is not good at speaking, but the ghost king is good at speaking, right?
The ghost king said that the time has been extended, and if the wedding day does not come, the clearing time will have to be delayed, right?
But how can she persuade the ghost king to agree to extend the time...
Just when she was hesitating about what words to use as her opening remarks, Miss Gu spoke first: "Why did you come to me?"
-coming!
Xia Zhiyi immediately seized this opportunity and expressed her purpose: "Ms. Tomorrow is getting married, and I am really happy for her. The fly in the ointment is that I don't think there is enough time yet."
Not enough time yet?
Miss Gu snorted coldly, and leaned lazily to the side: "What time is not enough? Are you short of time?"
"Of course not," Xia Zhiyi said with a smile, "It's because the miss and the wedding didn't have enough time."
She sighed deliberately, and said, "Miss, let me tell the truth, don't be angry."
"Say."
"I found out that your father... doesn't love you as much as others say."
"?"
Miss Gu was stunned for a moment, Xia Zhiyi seized the opportunity, and immediately started a wicked plan - to sow discord.
"When I first came here, I heard Qiao's housekeeper say that Mr. Gu loves you the most, and even if he loses everything, he will give you the best and most impeccable grand wedding. At that time, I was so envious.
"But when I went out today, I found new weeds growing in some places, and there were still many dead corners in the mansion that hadn't been cleaned up thoroughly. I think it's probably because the butler Qiao was busy decorating the mansion, so he forgot to order someone to clean these corners Corner corners, then this is because she is not refined enough. But you are getting married tomorrow, if this guest comes and sees it, I don’t know how to laugh at you Gu Fu.
"So I went to your father and suggested that he postpone the wedding. As a result, he didn't take it seriously at all. He didn't care if the lady would be laughed at, and didn't care if the lady's wedding was absolutely perfect. He rejected my suggestion immediately. , I only think about marrying you tomorrow!
"Oh, I thought he was really a good father who wanted to give his daughter the best, but now it seems... oh-"
She used the best acting skills of her life, and sighed the most regrettable breath of her life, as if she was really thinking about Miss Gu, without any personal factors involved.
But Miss Gu didn't speak, and the huge room fell into silence again.
Seeing this, she decided to provoke her again: "Ah, could it be that the master has the final say in this mansion, Miss, you have no rights at all? That's why I came here to make suggestions..."
The ghost king who sat silent behind the bead curtain seemed to be looking at her, but also seemed to be meditating, which was completely unpredictable.
After a long time, she heard a disdainful hum from behind the bead curtain: "Oh, what do you know?"
right?
She is the right here, and no one can disobey her.
"Tell me," Miss Gu said again, "How many days do you want?"
—Success!
Xia Zhiyi gave the number directly: "It's not good if it takes too long, so just five days."
Miss Gu: "..."
She admitted that this aggressive method was very effective, and even planned to generously give them a little time to let them know who is in charge of the house, but she never expected that this person would open his mouth like a lion and dare to ask for five days!
She also knows that too long is not good? !
"One day, if there is too much, if it is too little, there will be no day."
As expected.
Xia Zhiyi smiled knowingly: "Miss is still wise."
…
Xiaoqiao came back with Xia Zhiyi, and publicly announced that the wedding date will be postponed.
The mansion needs to prepare for one more day, and the guests can also continue to rest for one more day, just responsible for eating and drinking well.
The news shocked everyone.
After Xiaoqiao left, everyone gathered around to ask Xia Zhiyi what she had done.
Xia Zhiyi said calmly, "I didn't do anything, I just went to sow a room."
The three of Xiaoya: "?"
It sounds like there are no morals in this world that bind you.
Jing Ruyu scanned her up and down, and after confirming that she was not injured, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Xia Zhiyi didn't notice her reaction, suddenly grabbed her arm, and said with a serious face, "Ruyu, I know who the Ghost King is."
Jing Ruyu: "Who?"
Xia Zhiyi: "Miss Gu."
Jing Ruyu: "How are you sure?"
"I saw it," Xia Zhiyi said, "Gao Hui's body is in her room, and she is the only one who can talk in the house."
Xiaoya covered her mouth in shock.
Liuliu and Zhou Yan were even more shocked and speechless.
After such a long relationship, they have been helping the ghost king prepare for the wedding? ? ?
Jing Ruyu caught the point, frowned and asked, "Have you gone to see her?"
Xia Zhiyi: "That's right, Mr. Gu can't extend the time, so I just want to meet her."
Jing Ruyu: "It's too dangerous for you to go alone, let me accompany you next time."
Xia Zhiyi patted her on the shoulder carelessly: "An, am I back well? I don't think she looks like she can do anything to me."
Maybe it's because of the daytime, or maybe it's because of the restriction, in short, there must be something that traps Miss Gu, so that she won't be able to eat people as she wants for a while.
But when it comes to the big wedding day, that's not sure...
"In short, when you go to the backyard tonight, the pressure can be a little less. If you encounter danger, come back. We will have a long-term plan and go another day."
Finally helping Jing Ruyu lighten her burden, Xia Zhiyi let out a sigh of relief.
"Speaking of which, how about it, have you discussed any plans for tonight?"
"I originally had a plan, but I haven't decided whether to implement it, but you said that Miss Gu is the ghost queen..." Jing Ruyu frowned slightly, "That must be implemented."
Relying on the tacit understanding accumulated over a year of getting along, Xia Zhiyi understood her plan in an instant: "Are you talking about...bringing the ghost king into the yard to create more opportunities for you?"
It is obvious that the Ghost King is the greatest danger of the night.
If she didn't show up for a second, the life and death of the people outside would be even more uncertain. In this case, it is natural to control her position, and it is best to control her within the range that the player can see.
Jing Ruyu nodded.
"Liuliu has a watch. He has calculated the duration of the previous two ghost king stays. If he does not open the door, the ghost king will stay outside for more than an hour and keep bewitching the players to open the door."
Xia Zhiyi: "..."
She was surprised and said: "So she shouted for so long that night? This voice is really good, as expected of the King of Ghosts."
Jing Ruyu: "..."
...the point is not here.
Xia Zhiyi obediently turned back to the topic: "It would be better to have an extra hour or so, but the only way to attract the ghost king to the yard is...
"Then, who will be the warrior who will take the initiative to ask the lady for fruit?"
Jing Ruyu: "Not sure yet, that's why I said I haven't decided to implement it—"
Before she could finish speaking, Xiaoya, who had been sitting obediently by the side, raised her arm: "Let me do it."
Everyone's eyes instantly focused on her.
She straightened her back slowly, and repeated firmly, "I'll do it."
Jing Ruyu wanted to find the ferry alone, and Xia Zhiyi bought them an extra day. Under such circumstances, if she was the one who wanted to ask them to take her away from here, if she still shrank back and picked up food It's just too inhumane.
And what Jing Ruyu said just now, as long as someone wakes up next to him, the illusion will be eliminated quickly, and it is not difficult to decipher. The ghost king is sure that they are strangers and are tired during the day, and want to sleep at night, without the energy and leisure to care about others.
She believed that they would not cheat her!
Xia Zhiyi looked at her as if she was looking at a grown child.
Who would have thought that when this child first came in, he would be so frustrated that he didn't care about anything?
Sure enough, the new world makes people immoral and makes people grow up hastily.
Xia Zhiyi stepped forward to hold her hand, and said very reliably: "You will come to sleep in our room tonight, don't worry, I promise not to let you open the door!"
Xiaoya nodded vigorously.
Just do what she said, she boldly walked out of the yard to find Xiaoqiao, and said proactively: "I want to eat the fruit sent by the lady, can you give me a piece?"
Hearing this, Xiao Qiao slightly raised her brows.
"sure."
…
At night, lights out.
After agreeing on a secret signal to come back, Jing Ruyu went out through the back window.
The rear window faced a wall, and she climbed up the wall, deciding not to take the usual route.
When she comes back, she will come back through the back window instead of going through the front door, lest the ghost king pretend to be her in front to deceive everyone.
Climbing to the top of the wall, leaning down, away from the courtyard, she looked at Gu's mansion shrouded in the cold moonlight, and slowly twisted her neck.
Hope it goes well...
Inside the house, Xia Zhiyi stood in front of the closed window, silent.
When Jing Ruyu left, she stuffed an extra booklet for her, hoping to help her, but she just couldn't let go of that high-hanging heart.
She still likes this person, and she still unconsciously worries about her safety.
So what if he has a little skill, isn't he still an ordinary person? Isn't it dangerous to meet those ghosts and ghosts? Not to mention the pile of skeletons all over the backyard...
She sighed softly.
—Hope she can come back safe and sound.
Xiaoya glanced at the doorway filled with tables and chairs, then turned her head to look at Xia Zhiyi who was silent, she softly called out, "Sister Zhiyi?"
Xia Zhiyi turned around: "Huh?"
Xiaoya: "Aren't you going to sleep?"
Xia Zhiyi: "I'm not going to sleep, you go to sleep."
When Xiaoya heard this, she immediately sat up straight: "Then I won't sleep either, maybe I won't have hallucinations if I don't sleep."
Xia Zhiyi smiled and said comfortingly: "Go to sleep, it's okay, the fruit of the ghost king may have a hypnotic effect, and you can't escape."
Xiaoya: "..."
It was obviously a comforting tone, but why didn't I feel comforted at all? ?
Sure enough, as Xia Zhiyi said, Xiaoya soon started to fight with her eyelids, and her body, which was sitting upright, also swayed. She was obviously very sleepy but she held on, not daring to fall down.
Xia Zhiyi sighed, walked forward, helped her to lie down, and softly comforted her: "Sleep, I'm here, nothing will happen, sleep, sleep."
I don't know if it's Xia Zhiyi's voice that is too gentle or the effect of the ghost king's fruit is too strong, but Xiaoya soon couldn't hold on and completely succumbed to sleepiness.
She gave a confused "hmm", closed her eyes obediently and fell asleep.
Xia Zhiyi helped her cover the quilt, then went back to the door to check the latch, tables and chairs, the small hole in the door was also blocked by tables and chairs, everything was fine.
She unconsciously walked back to the window.
I don't know where she is now, if she is in danger...
…
The Gu mansion at night was quiet but not peaceful.
The ghost dormant in the dark exhales white breath under the sky, stretching its stiff limbs.
They prefer the night best, without bothering sun and irritating constraints.
A ghost buried under a flowerpot by the wall poked its head out quietly, sucking in the fresh air greedily.
It is waiting, waiting for the next death player who ignorantly breaks into the night, and it can't wait to pull another person to be the backing for its own death!
At this moment, it saw a black figure flash past quickly, and instantly merged with the darkness under the eaves.
A pair of blood-red pupils slowly appeared, and they were staring at it coldly, as if they were staring at their prey, which was creepy.
"Ghost!"
It was subconsciously afraid of yelling, and shrank back abruptly.
As a result, half a day passed, and nothing happened.
The timid one poked its head out cautiously and looked around, but found nothing and heard nothing, as if those eyes were just its illusion.
It froze in place, muttering belatedly: "No, I'm also a ghost, I'm afraid of a fart..."
"But what was that just now?
"Could it be... the newcomer?"
No one answered.
It drilled back bored.
The Gu mansion under the moonlight fell into silence again, and the night was long.
The author has something to say:
