Chapter 38 - Labor and management will fricking curse you to death!

Emily and the others firmly believed in Bai Leshui's words. Only the players including Rong Zheng did not believe it. However, they still followed Emily and several people who were suspected of being important NPCs in the copy. The town is not big, so a few people parked their cars in the square and walked there.

They saw a shop on the road, and the handsome guy named Tom happily said he wanted to buy a few bottles of beer. It was hard that he finally arrived at his destination, and he, the driver, wanted to relax. As a result, he only saw ordinary flour, butter and salad dressing in the store, but no beer.

There were only a few scattered items on the dilapidated shelves. Tom walked around and didn't find what he wanted, so he asked the person sitting behind the counter: "Hey, friend, isn't there any beer here ma?"

Behind the counter was a fat woman with dirty brown hair in an apron. She didn't even raise her eyelids, she just put her hands on her chest and muttered something. After hearing Tom's words, she said coldly: "There's nothing here that would make you lose your mind if you drink."

Tom's eyes widened, he spread his hands to the three friends behind him and made a wry face.

Emily laughed out loud: "Okay la, Tom, things that does not have are just unavailable. There are a few bottles of coke in the refrigerator in the car. You can go back and drink coke ba."

Tom shrugged: "Alright ba, it seems that the God of Wine did not favor me."

Tom just said a casual joke, but the woman behind the counter suddenly stood up, stared at Tom and shouted: "Infidel!"

Tom was stupid: "What?"

"Go away, you are not welcome here. You and those guys are together ba, leave quickly!" The woman waved loudly to drive these people away from her shop.

Tom didn't know the reason: "What are you doing? Don't push me. Do you want to fight ma..."

"Hey, calm down." Another man with black hair and brown eyes who was traveling with them stopped Tom. "Okay, don't quarrel with the locals, you know that, Tom."

Tom: "Don't grab me, Nicole, she was the first..."

"Sorry, we're leaving right away." The young man whose age is very young but with a mustache smiled at the angry fat woman, "Sorry for the inconvenience, ma'am."

The farce was over as quickly as it started. Tom was dragged out of the store by his friend. Seeing that the woman did not chase her out, Tom spat and said nothing more. He just had a very unhappy expression on his face. He complained to his friends: "Hasen, maybe we didn't make the right decision coming here."

Mustache Hasen said with a smile: "Who knows ne, it's just for fun anyway, don't be angry, old fellow."

Tom snorted: "I hope the people in the hotel have a better attitude."

Rong Zheng and several other players did not interrupt from beginning to end, and Emily four people obviously had no intention of talking to players. The originally relaxed atmosphere was a bit awkward because of what just happened.

Rong Zheng memorized the appearance and names of these four NPCs, and then secretly observed the players.

The number of players this time was small, only eight including him.

And there were obviously people who entered in as team. Among them, two very beautiful girls acted together, and although the other three men were not always together, they often made eye contact. The remaining two people were like him, at least for now, alone.

If it's the same as the novice copy, it will be fine. If there is a place where players need to compete, it will be a bit disadvantageous for him.

The group of people continued walking forward with their own thoughts, until they reached the other end of the town, they didn't see the hotel mentioned, only a church. The church door has a heavy lock.

Looking at the tall door in front of him, Tom, who was already angry, cursed: "That despicable fellow in wheelchair just now must have lied. I have long thought that he was a bit weird, no, everyone in this town is fricking weird!"

Seeing that Tom was about to explode on the spot, Emily immediately comforted him,

Hasen asked: "What to do? Go back ma?"

"Well... I really wish I could live in a more spacious room, but it doesn't matter if I don't have one. We have an RV." Nicole looked at the players and asked, "What will you do?"

Unexpectedly, this question was quickly thrown back, which dumbfounded several players who were accustomed to listening to NPC arrangements for accommodation. The older female player quickly replied: "Why don't we ask other people ba. There's always a way."

Emily: "I'll go with you. There's not much food in the car. I didn't buy anything from the store just now. I hope I can ask about the location of a second store."

The female player and Emily went together to ask some passers-by. Tom with other outsider NPCs and Rong Zheng with other players were waiting at the door of the church, but they came back after a while.

Hasen immediately asked what was going on, Emily shook her head and said, "There's only one store."

Tom snorted.

A player asked: "The hotel ne?"

The female player who followed along to ask passers-by spoke up: "People here say that the town is too small and no outsiders have ever come here before, so there is no hotel."

The player who asked the question exclaimed: "No hotel? Were we cheated ma?"

The female player nodded: "Well, we specifically mentioned the man in wheelchair. They said that he was a liar and never told the truth. If you want to know the real situation, you have to think the opposite of what he said."

The player bared his teeth, muttered in a low voice: "NPCs are still lying?"

The tall and lanky player next to him heard his whisper and asked quietly: "Newcomer?"

The man nodded.

The tall and lanky man: "Swipe through dungeon a few more times and you'll understand. It's common for NPCs to lie to people."

Sometimes even the rules may not be true, let alone a few words from NPC.

Without hotel, there is no place to rest. Some players suggested that they should stay in the houses of local residents. This suggestion was approved by more than half of players. However, the result was regrettable. They asked several houses, but no one was willing to accept outsiders.

Some players thought that maybe only a few families could take them in, so they kept asking one by one. A local lady with thick curly hair couldn't stand it anymore and told them that no one here would accept outsiders.

The player who knocked on the door asked, "Why?"

The curly-haired woman said: "When you entered the town, did you see a person in wheelchair?"

"I saw it!" the player said. "He is really a liar. He actually told us that there was a hotel in the town, which made us look for it for so long."

The curly-haired woman said: "His name is Green, he came here a few months ago. Because there is no hotel here, Mr. White's family received him, then not long after, the White family disappeared, and the house was occupied by Green, living there all along."

"Huh? Could it be..."

Curly-haired woman: "Who knows ne. No body was seen, and there was no blood. Originally, Mr. White's house was at the edge of the town, no one knew what happened. And that guy had no faith at all. Originally, people in the town just rejected him, but then several outsiders came..."

The curly-haired woman stopped here. She noticed that several residents of the town were walking towards her. She lowered her voice and said, "I suggest you live in the square. At least it's safe there." After saying that, she closed the door. No matter how much the players asks, she won't open the door again.

Several players looked at each other, after discussing with Emily and company, they finally decided to return to the square. Although the RV could only accommodate the beds of Emily and company, fortunately, there was tents in their car, which was just enough for them.

Since the curly-haired woman said that the square was safe, they were going to believe it. There was no other way than to live in the square temporarily.

The other side.

Bai Leshui immediately returned to his house after piting this group of people, so even if he was caught, he would be safe. After waiting for a long time, there was no other movement, Bai Leshui breathed a sigh of relief, took out the game cards, and counted them one by one.

[Black undercover]

[I'm watching you]

[I want to curse you]

Bai Leshui held the green curse card in his hand and read the instructions carefully. He smiled mischieviously and planned to use this card.

Let's take this lowest-quality green card and try its effect. As for the candidate for the curse, who else can it be? Of course it's Rong Zheng!

Isn't it natural to eliminate the dangerous ones first ma?

That person's existence is a time bomb. Who knows when he will discover his identity again.

Bai Leshui held up this card and recalled what that guy did in the last dungeon.

Paws touching ramdomly, responding to the title 'husband', took him wherever he went as a carry-on baggage, and finally drank poisonous porridge for him...

Bai Leshui hesitated.

As expected... or take a look first then talk?

"It's just a bit of bad luck, it should be fine ba." Bai Leshui stared at the card and muttered to himself, "Or find someone else to try the effect, and then curse Rong Zheng?"

"Forget it, let's check the player status first." Bai Leshui put down the green card and picked up the blue card [I'm watching you] to use it. Then he saw a light screen appear out of thin air in front of him, which was the live broadcast of the players.

Eight people who were obviously players took the tents from Emily's hand and set up camp in the square. Because there was a lot of preparation to be done, Emily and others got in the car to rest. They were not finished yet, even so they planned to hold a player discussion meeting while Emily and others were away.

Bai Leshui thought it was a coincidence he was staring at the right time. Rong Zheng, whom he was most concerned about, had just tied up his tent when the two most beautiful girls among the players walked over to him and introduced themselves. As soon as these two girls came together, they naturally attracted a few boys over as well. All the players finally gathered around Rong Zheng.

Bai Leshui: "Tsk."

Being handsome is indeed attractive to women.

He is also handsome, but he only attracts sister-type girls, which is sad.

"Hello, my name is Hao Jie, and I have passed dungeon three times." The girl with long black hair introduced herself, and then pointed to the short-haired girl next to her, "She is my friend, Nan Yun."

Nan Yun smiled sweetly at Rong Zheng: "I have walked through dungeon five times, so I have a little experience."

"I'm Tu An." The shortest one in the trio spoke, staring at Nan Yun, "I've also walked through dungeon five times, what a coincidence a. These two people are with me, Da Yang and Lin Song."

The two people were not very talkative and only nodded to Rong Zheng without even looking at the two beautiful girls.

There were three women among the players this time. The last one was obviously much older, with crow's feet at the corners of her eyes, and was slightly overweight. She said: "I have walked through dungeon twice, and this is the third time. Call me Aunt Ming ba. I'm already in my forties."

"I am Chu Wenhai, a newcomer. I have only walked through the novice dungeon once." The player who had previously been talking about NPCs being able to deceive people immediately said.

Rong Zheng: "I am Rong Zheng. Apart from the novice copy, this is my first copy."

Hao Jie: "Do you all have cards ma?"

Aunt Ming shook her head, and Chu Wenhai chuckled: "I just survived the last dungeon. How can I get a card pack with a C rating a?"

Tu An in the trio was about to say something, but Da Yang interrupted him first: "None of our cards are shared cards."

Rong Zheng: "What is a shared card?"

Lin Song explained: "It is a card that can be used by other players. Or a card that other players can benefit from after being used."

Rong Zheng: "I see." He took out the white card [Retractable metal rod] and asked, "Does this belong ma?"

Everyone was shocked. After hearing Rong Zheng say he had only passed the novice copy, no one had any hope for him. After all, there are only so many novice dungeon coins. After buying a green card, even a place to eat and stay are absent. Dropping card pack requires at least an A rating. How many newcomers in this world can get a good rating when they just entered the dungeon and were confused? Even if the novice copy is simple, it is useless. No one is sure whether the system and the so-called words of guide players are true. Everyone is afraid of death.

And this obviously dropped card from a dungeon at least proves Rong Zheng's potential in some respects, if he doesn't lie about the number of dungeons he has brushed.

Hao Jie nodded quickly: "Belong, this card can materialize thing, anyone can use it. It's just..."

Just this metal rod can be found on any map as long as you work hard, and it is useless to hold it if you have no military practice, so it's chiken rib.

"You take it ba." Nan Yun said to Rong Zheng, "Although it's just a white card, it's easy to carry."

Da Yang looked at Rong Zheng with a little admiration in his eyes: "I didn't expect you to get a high rating in the first dungeon. You must be very good at solving puzzles. Is there anything you are particularly concerned about in this dungeon ma?"

"Particularly concerned about?" Rong Zheng thought carefully, thinking of the young man rolling a wheelchair he saw today, "For example, Green who was seen today?"

Bai Leshui, who was peeking at the screen:...

Hao Jie: "The person in wheelchair?"

Tu An raised his chin: "Basically, I judge that it must be a particularly important NPC with some special background. Let's go back and check him carefully? Maybe we can dig up some important information ne."

Bai Leshui, who was still looking at the screen:...

Lin Song: "I'm going to ask about Green tomorrow, and I'm also very concerned about what the curly-haired NPC hasn't finished to say."

Tu An trembled: "You all have to solve the puzzle a. It's very dangerous."

Da Yang: "There is no reward without effort. A high-rated copy can provide for half a year. Not to mention that it is closely related to our return home."

Bai Leshui, who continued to peek at the screen:...

Aunt Ming nodded: "I have a child in high school in the original world. It's time for the college entrance examination. I want to go back as soon as possible to be with him."

Na Yun showed a shy smile: "I didn't think so much. I just bought a lot of big-name bags and ran out of money. The parallel world is synchronized with the original world. When new models are released, I just want to get my hand on one."

Rong Zheng: "Then..."

Bai Leshui didn't hear what Rong Zheng said next. The time limit for viewing the screen was up, and the small screen disappeared with a whoosh.

Bai Leshui looked at the cards in his hand expressionlessly, silently pulled out the green one, gritted his teeth and said: "Use [I Want to Curse You], target Rong Zheng."

That soft-heartness just now was turned to feed the dog, labor and management will fricking curse you to death!

Square.

Players finished their discussion and were about to take a rest. As soon as Rong Zheng stood up, he suddenly felt uncomfortable. He raised his feet and then the soles of his feet slipped.

Peng! Rong Zheng fell to the ground.

Dong! Rong Zheng's foot just hit the fixed corner of the tent.

Huala! The tent collapsed.

Pa! The fallen tent hit Rong Zheng in the face.

All the players were stunned. Finally, Tu An, who was closest to him, pulled the tent away: "Dude, how come you be so unlucky a? Now you have to start over."

Rong Zheng:...

He also didn't know how he could be so unlucky.

Slips and falls have never happened since he started training in junior high school.

What happened?

The author has something to say:

Rong Zheng: I even pit my own wife when I talk!

Bai Leshui: When I get angry, I even curse my own man!

Come a, let's hurt each other a!

The little angels are so skilled at handling paper. Have you done this more than once? Smarter than this author. Thinking back when author was in elementary school and junior high school, I also thought of tearing the paper into pieces, tearing them into pieces as big as rice grains, and then scattering them in different garbage bags. Water, fire and such, I never thought about it!

It took me a long time to throw away the scraps of paper. Thinking about it, I was quite stupid. Very tiring too.
