Gu Xizhou looked at the girl and recognized her as Mei Xiao. He raised his eyebrows slightly. They had been surrounded by ghosts the moment they entered this world. Logically speaking, even if they saw something scary, they should be used to it.
Si Yu raised his head and looked at the time. It was 4: 03 in the afternoon.
"What did you do after you came in?"
These people had entered the courtyard before them, so they didn't know what had happened. Si Yu's gaze fell on the girl's clothes. There was a splatter of blood on her chest.
At first, Mei Xiao was so agitated that she couldn't speak. After Ye Shu comforted her, Mei Xiao finally said with a face full of horror, "I don't know what to say!"
When the four of them heard Mei Xiao's words, they looked at each other helplessly.
Gu Xizhou said calmly, "Then take your time."
Mei Xiao was quiet for a while. After a long time, she slowly recounted what had happened a few minutes ago.
"The person who teamed up with me was Zu Rong. You just met him. He has a tiger head tattoo on his arm."
Ma Qi had an impression of that person. He nodded slightly, indicating for her to continue.
"After we got the tickets and came in, we moved with the others."
"After we came in, we realized that these ghosts were ignoring us. They were like walking corpses queuing in front of every entertainment facility …"
"There were no clear clues, and no NPC could give us any clues. When we walked to the merry-go-round, we saw a little boy queuing up with the ghosts in front of the merry-go-round … It was a normal little boy. Do you know what I mean? He didn't look like a ghost … he looked like a human. "
"When we saw the little boy … we all agreed that he must be the key NPC of this world. But when we called out to him, he made a face at us and sat on the merry-go-round with the ghosts."
"Zu Rong and the others wanted to chase after the little boy. I don't know what happened in the middle … Anyway, when I saw Zu Rong run to the merry-go-round, he accidentally dropped the ticket in his hand on the ground …"
As she spoke, Mei Xiao revealed a fearful expression, as if she was recalling the terrifying scene she had just experienced. Her face turned pale. "Those ghosts suddenly attacked him! I saw a lot of blood. There was a lot of blood on the ground. Then someone screamed and we scattered. "
The ticket fell to the ground?
Gu Xizhou raised his eyebrows slightly. "Those who lose their votes will be attacked by ghosts."
As soon as his voice fell, they all silently touched the tickets in their trouser pockets. Ma Qi even took out the tickets in his trouser pocket, folded them twice, put them into the purse on his shirt, and buttoned it up. Only then did he feel at ease.
"That should be the case," Si Yu affirmed.
Mei Xiao, who was supported by Ye Shu, finally calmed down.
Seeing Gu Xizhou looking at him, Si Yu shrugged and said, "That little boy should be an important NPC. I think some of them must have stayed behind. Let's go and take a look."
Gu Xizhou didn't reply. Si Yu turned to Mei Xiao and said, "Let's go. Take us there. You have the tickets, so they won't attack you."
Gu Xizhou felt that Si Yu was very good at making people feel safe. Just look at Mei Xiao, who had been crying just now, after hearing Si Yu's words, she calmed down a lot. She bit her lower lip and nodded.
They walked to the front of the merry-go-round, but they didn't see the little boy they were talking about. However, Si Yu's guess was right. There was a long line of people on the merry-go-round, with ghosts at the front and people at the back.
"What's the situation now?" Gu Xizhou asked when he saw someone familiar.
Ah Ke, who had explained the situation to them at the entrance of the amusement park, said to him, "Look at the tickets in your hands."
Gu Xizhou was stunned. He took out the tickets from his trouser pocket. A game event appeared on the front of the ticket: Merry-Go-Round (2/33).
"Does this mean that we have to ride the merry-go-round?" Gu Xizhou said, "The number 2 represents the number of people who have ridden the merry-go-round, and the number 33 represents the number of people who are still alive?"
Ah Ke nodded slightly and said, "It seems like the situation is like this. Whatever event the little boy has ridden, the corresponding event will appear on our tickets …"
Gu Xizhou asked, "Who has ridden the merry-go-round?"
"Brother Lu and his partner. Both of them have ridden the merry-go-round. We don't know anything else for now, "Ah Ke said softly.
Gu Xizhou raised his eyebrows slightly and glanced at the merry-go-round in front of them. There were a few stupid ghosts sitting on the pink merry-go-round … In any case, they looked very stupid.
"Let's line up first." Si Yu said, "Only when everyone has ridden the merry-go-round will we know if the tickets mean this."
Gu Xizhou raised his eyebrows and looked at the long line. He silently felt a little annoyed and asked, "How long do we have to wait in line like this?"
"Also, the park closes at 8 pm. The merry-go-round has 18 people at one time, and each ride lasts three minutes. There should be at least 180 ghosts in front of us, right?"
"By the time we get there, half an hour will have passed."
Si Yu lowered his head and thought for a while. He looked at Gu Xizhou and seemed to feel that it would take a lot of time to wait in line like this. He had a headache. Most importantly, they still didn't understand the situation. This world didn't give them many hints.
Gu Xizhou raised his eyebrows and glanced at the ghosts working in the amusement park. He said, "Wait for me here. I'll be back in a while!"
"What are you going to do?" Si Yu's eyelids twitched for no reason.
Gu Xizhou winked at him and said, "I'm going to ask the staff if we can cut in line!"
Si Yu looked at Gu Xizhou with a trace of doubt. This was because two of them had been attacked by the ghosts for cutting in line to buy tickets.
Gu Xizhou hurriedly added, "I'm just going to ask. What if it works? Don't you see that we have VIP tickets?! What if there's preferential treatment? You wait here in line. I'll be back in a while! "
When Si Yu heard Gu Xizhou's words, he lowered his head and glanced at the VIP tickets. He felt that there was a slight possibility and grasped a little hope. He nodded at Gu Xizhou and reminded him, "Come back as soon as possible. If you can't, don't get into an argument with the ghosts. They can't attack you because you have the tickets, but don't always attract hatred for yourself …"
"Okay, okay, I got it!" Gu Xizhou waved his hand impatiently.
He walked to the front of the staff office and smiled at the ghost that only had half a head. He used his hand to touch the marble counter and said with a friendly expression, "Brother Ghost, I'm in a hurry. Can you let me cut in line?"
The ghost turned its head and its entire head made cracking sounds. "No, get lost."
"What about this?" Gu Xizhou stared straight at the ghost and waved the VIP tickets in front of the ghost. "Look at the VIP tickets I bought. They're not ordinary tickets. Is that okay?"
"No, get lost." The ghost shook its head.
When Gu Xizhou heard the word "no," he pointed at the ghost in front of him and was silent for a moment. "Really?"
"No, get lost."
It said this very firmly and raised its eyebrows slightly. It looked down on the guy in front of it and the corners of its mouth curled up. When it smiled, it looked like a ghost in a horror movie who was about to kill someone. "You'll all die. No one can leave."
"Heh." Gu Xizhou glared at it, then pushed open the door and walked in. He touched his chin with one hand and smiled at the ghost in front of him. This ghost had already told him to get lost three times. No matter what, he couldn't just leave like this.
"Think about it again. Otherwise, the consequences will be very serious."
The ghost narrowed its eyes and stared at Gu Xizhou. It wiped the bloodstains on its eyes and was a little dumbfounded. This human seemed to be threatening it. No, impossible. Ever since it became a ghost, no one would threaten it. They would only be afraid of it and dread it!
"No, get out of my sight right now."
Gu Xizhou, who was rejected again, silently took a step back and closed the door of the staff office. He rubbed his hands that hadn't moved in a long time. This ghost told him to get lost for the fourth time! The Demon Cultivator couldn't take it!
"What are you doing?" Seeing the human in front of it smiling at it, its eyebrows twitched for no reason. However, it quickly calmed down. The rules didn't allow them to attack these humans, but if these humans attacked it, it could also fight back.
If it could get the ticket from this man in front of it, it could die!
Gu Xizhou smiled. "Take a guess."
Gu Xizhou stared at the ghost and took a big stride toward it. He clenched his right hand into a fist and punched the ghost's head.
The ghost's reaction wasn't slow, but it couldn't avoid Gu Xizhou's attack. Gu Xizhou was a completely different kind of ghost in the mission world.
The ghost couldn't avoid it. Its nose, which was still intact, was broken by Gu Xizhou's punch. Its entire face was damaged. It was already a tragic death, but now it was even more tragic.
"Bang — —"
Another punch landed on its jaw, and the ghost flew backward. Because it didn't have a complete skull, its brain matter fell to the ground. It was stunned, but this was just the beginning.
The human in front of it threw his iron-like fists at it. Again and again, the human's hand suddenly emitted a strange black gas. Just coming into contact with the black gas was enough to cause it unbearable pain. It could only let out miserable cries.
Lying on the ground, it looked at its own pitiful brain matter not far from it. It questioned with its soul, "What the hell are you? You're definitely not human! "
Gu Xizhou: "…"
What greeted it wasn't Gu Xizhou's voice, but a new round of beating.
It: QWQ
Gu Xizhou: "I'm human."
It nodded like a chicken pecking on rice. "Yes, yes, yes!" I believe! Let go of your hand that's emitting black smoke, okay?!
Gu Xizhou was satisfied. "Can I cut the line now?"
It: "I have my principles!"
Seeing the fierce-looking guy staring at it, it suddenly wanted to cry. It really did have its principles. It couldn't cut the line!
Gu Xizhou shook his head. It seemed that the beating wasn't bad enough. It didn't agree because it hadn't been beaten into an idiot yet!
Punch after punch, the demonic energy invaded its body. Its soul was in pain as if it was being torn apart. The ghost who had been arrogant just now raised its hand and surrendered. "I can cut the line, I can cut the line. Please don't hit me anymore. I'm going to die!"
Gu Xizhou: "You should've done this earlier!"
Gu Xizhou didn't forget to remind it, "You're already dead!"
It: "…"
