Chapter 129: [Harboring a Ghostly Secret] Terror Inside the House
[Holy crap, what are you saying?!]
[As expected, the streamer I follow is always this bold]
[Zhang Kemeng gifted 10 points and said: Although I know your chat isn’t open, I still have to say, streamer is the best!]
Ji Xiaolan remained in that posture and expression.
However, the water behind her began to churn.
Dense shadows swam under the surface of the water. Clearly, the entire lake was full of water snakes, which was completely illogical.
Bai Cha noticed this, and Ji Xiaolan simultaneously grabbed her hand tightly.
Her skin no longer had the texture of a normal person. It was a bluish-gray, even with a hint of red, and her fingernails were bright red.
Her face hadn’t changed much.
Bai Cha opened her mouth, fear in her eyes, and tears instantly fell.
“Xiaolan?”
Ji Xiaolan closed her eyes again, then released her hand.
Her hand and fingernails returned to normal, and she casually threw the black snake in her hand into the water.
The lake had become calm again.
She stood up.
“Now that you know, aren’t you leaving?” she looked at Bai Cha, her voice impatient.
Bai Cha looked down at the purplish marks on her hand, then looked up at Ji Xiaolan again.
Fear and sadness intertwined, making her tears flow even more.
“Who is it? I went out last night, I saw that temple, is it…”
Bai Cha dropped more bombshells.
Ji Xiaolan suddenly looked at her.
“Who told you to go out?”
Bai Cha felt a bit wronged.
“I just felt that something was wrong here, I felt that you were also wrong, and…”
Bai Cha’s gaze subconsciously fell to her abdomen.
Ji Xiaolan instinctively pulled down the hem of her clothes.
“Sorry, I didn’t mean anything else, it’s just that when I hugged you yesterday, I felt like… is it Shao Lei’s?”
Observing Ji Xiaolan’s expression, Bai Cha thought of a possibility, and anger appeared on her face.
“Or is it…”
“That’s enough! What’s the use of you knowing these things?” Ji Xiaolan’s voice became sharp, and the calmed lake churned again.
With three consecutive bombshells, dark clouds covered the sky, and the system issued a notification sound.
[Congratulations to the players for unlocking 50% of the plot progress. You are very fast, please be careful]
The players not far away immediately looked towards Bai Cha upon hearing this notification. It must have been Bai Cha who unlocked it.
They didn’t know what she had said.
But they could feel an overwhelming ghostly aura sweeping in from the lakeside.
The entire sky had completely darkened.
The moisture in the air was so thick it felt like heavy rain.
Xu Shengsheng was worried and wanted to go over, but Wang Jiangtao pulled her back.
“Let’s go back to the courtyard first.”
“But…”
“Your sister is stronger than you, no buts.”
The other players had already walked towards the courtyard.
And they were moving quickly.
“It’s probably going to rain. The water in here might not be good. Let’s get inside!”
Xu Shengsheng also knew she couldn’t do anything, so she obediently followed into the room.
Because the humidity was getting heavier, everyone’s clothes quickly became wet. The moisture took away the heat, and everyone felt a bit cold. After discussing it, they simply closed the living room door first.
But this way, they knew even less about what was happening outside.
However, Jin Qiao hadn’t returned.
But no one cared about that.
It was Wang Yan whose condition began to show abnormalities.
Although at first, those who didn’t know he had died also found him strange.
But everyone tacitly remained silent.
After all, many times, as long as you didn’t expose it, there wouldn’t be any immediate danger.
But Wang Yan’s current situation was so obvious that it couldn’t be ignored.
His body was like damp mud, or like melting wax.
Starting from the top of his head, he slid down bit by bit, constantly dripping onto the ground.
Thud—
An eyeball fell out.
Pat-pat—
More and more fragments of flesh fell, but in fact, it couldn’t even be called flesh anymore.
The players all wore the same pained expressions, constantly backing away.
“Damn it, what is this?”
Wang Yan no longer had facial features. At this melting speed, he quickly turned into a puddle.
No subject was added because it was difficult for everyone to describe what it actually was.
Gao Wei’s expression wasn’t good. He always felt it might be related to being bitten by the snake.
This made him subconsciously look at his wound.
The wound where the snake had bitten him had swollen and turned black at some point.
Then, he seemed to see a tiny tail move inside the wound.
Gao Wei, somewhat terrified, instinctively took out his knife and cut away the entire piece of flesh.
He also let out a scream.
But before he could even feel the extent of the pain, he saw that half a snake was still left in the wound.
It was very small, about the size of a finger.
He felt this snake burrowing into his bones, gnawing at his flesh and blood. Pain and fear spread instantly, and he slashed at it again with his knife.
And the players next to him had already pushed away, their faces filled with shock.
Because no one else had seen anything, they just saw him suddenly cutting his own flesh.
“Gao Wei, I think you need to calm down,” Wang Jiangtao said.
But in fact, Gao Wei wasn’t his real name, it was just the character’s name, so he didn’t hear him.
Realizing that cutting away his flesh and blood couldn’t stop the small snake from burrowing into his bones, he suddenly gritted his teeth, hardened his heart, and directly chopped off his entire lower leg.
At this scene, Xia Mei screamed and hugged Xu Shengsheng.
Xu Shengsheng wasn’t much better, and she hugged Xia Mei tightly.
However, all of this didn’t affect Gao Wei.
After he found that his leg had been chopped off, there was still a small snake inside his bone.
That small black snake was rapidly gnawing at his bone marrow, then bursting his bone open and growing rapidly.
Gao Wei screamed and swung his knife again.
Anyway, as long as you didn’t die in the game, broken arms and legs could be restored after going out.
But none of this could stop the snake.
He suddenly felt a sharp pain in his stomach, lifted his clothes, and saw a snake burrowing into his navel.
Gao Wei screamed again. Already deranged, he directly plunged the knife into his stomach.
The players had already shrunk back against the opposite wall, watching him constantly slash his body with the knife, digging and digging from his stomach, his internal organs falling all over the ground, merging with Wang Yan’s melted remains next to him.
Gao Wei finally stopped moving.
A pungent smell of blood spread through the room, mixed with the moisture, making it particularly nauseating.
Knock knock—
The living room door was knocked on at this moment.
The players were all startled.
No one dared to make a sound.
“It’s me, open the door.”
It was Bai Cha’s voice outside the door.
Xu Shengsheng burst into tears of joy on the spot. She took a step forward, wanting to open the door, but suddenly remembered the dream she had before entering the game.
She stopped and looked at her panel.
She and Bai Cha had location tracking. At this moment, the location showed that the two red dots were not together.
