Chapter 320
There are 7 people left, but the number of branches is 8.
There is an extra one.
"How could this be?" Youqi stretched out his hand with a sad face, as if hoping that someone could claim the extra branch, and asked everyone tremblingly, "Whose extra branch belongs to?"
Of course no one will claim it, and everyone is staring at him with pity.
Chen Qiang glanced at the painting subconsciously. This action seemed to trigger a chain reaction, and the rest of the people also looked at the painting.
If there is one "person" in this room, it should be the woman in the painting.
Could this branch be hers.
Seeing this scene, You Qi's face turned pale, as if his blood had been drained.
Although he was very scared, he didn't dare to throw away the branches given by the NPC casually, and he didn't know which of the two branches to throw away, and his whole face was twisted together.
Just as everyone thought, there is still a play to be performed tonight.
"Have you noticed?" An Xuan said, "What she said just now is that the master asked her to notify."
Before that, all she mentioned was the young master.
Nodding, Xia Meng narrowed her eyes and said, "It seems that they already know that we have guessed the real identity of Young Master Huang, so they don't need to hide it anymore."
It was getting dark very quickly. After dinner, everyone gathered in the wing room of Jiangcheng, waiting for the mission to start.
An Xuan once again led everyone to review some details of the mission and what needs to be paid attention to, "According to the rules this time, the ghost is likely to dress up as one of us in the process, and then lure others to speak."
He looked at everyone one by one, and when he saw Jiang Cheng, he realized that the other party was also staring at him. An Xuan looked away very naturally, "So I suggest that no matter what you see or hear, don't open your mouth."
"And this branch." He opened his hand, and there was a branch quietly lying in his palm, "Once you have it in your mouth, don't take it out until the mission is over."
When mentioning the branches, everyone glanced at You Qi who was shrunk in the corner again, and his complexion seemed to be even worse.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
The drums were very muffled.
Everyone's pupils shrank, and the task finally came.
When we rushed to the shore, there was still fog on the lake, and what was even more strange was that this time the fog was thicker than before, floating on the lake, everything in front of us was white and the visibility was poor.
A small boat broke through the thick fog and docked on the shore.
For this, there is no surprise for everyone, the rule is that you need to use a boat to disperse everyone.
But to everyone's surprise, the boat was not empty as before, but there was a paper human head and a bright red costume.
The costumes were propped up on a wooden frame and stood on the bow of the boat. The paper doll head was buckled on top of the costume. At first glance, it looked like a person standing on the boat with his arms outstretched. Given the current environment, it was very strange.
According to the rules, it is not allowed to speak after arriving at the designated place and holding the branch in the mouth, so Yuqi couldn't help it at this moment, and asked, "This is...is this for us to wear? It's not in the rules."
In the middle of the speech, Yuqi was like a duck whose neck was trampled, unable to speak out, because he saw many boats sailing out of the fog.
Silently, there was a bright red costume standing on each boat, the sleeves and hem of the costume waving with the night wind, as if people were dancing.
Xia Meng counted, there were 7 boats in total.
An Xuan took a deep breath, and was the first to jump on board. The situation was obvious now, and they needed to change into red costumes and paper human heads.
But everyone kept an eye out and didn't take off their original costumes, but put the red costumes on the outside, which made them look bloated.
The moment the costumes were changed and the paper figurine heads were put on, the seven boats started at the same time and sailed in different directions, before disappearing in the mist.
The throat rolled, the fat man looked to the left and right, the surrounding was foggy, and he couldn't see other boats at all, and the sound of water coming from under the boat was also very strange, the fat man wanted to stick his head out several times, but his reason was strangled up.
He was worried about seeing something he shouldn't bear, such as a soaked dead face, or a corpse waving pale arms.
His brain power has always been very strong. In just a few seconds, he has imagined dozens of ghostly possible ways to kill people. The final result is that he is squatting in the middle of the boat, his huge body shrunk into a small ball , the neck rotates 360 degrees without dead ends, like a solid humanoid radar.
This situation continued until he landed.
According to the rules of the game, he only needs to wait here, and someone will come to him later, hand over the bride to him, and then he will take the bride to the next person.
The process is not complicated. In the words of the doctor, it is just a shoulder-patting game in disguise.
The shoulder-patting game requires four people. In the middle of the night, in a rectangular empty room, turn off all the lights, and then arrange one person in each of the four corners of the room.
Face the corner and don't look behind you.
When the game starts, the person in one of the corners walks to the person next to the other corner, and pats the shoulder of the person in front, and then the person being photographed repeats the above steps in the same way.
The premise is that everyone is walking in the same direction, clockwise or counterclockwise.
When someone walks to a corner where no one is around, he should cough first, then cross the corner of this person and continue walking until he sees the next person.
After a while, you will find that there will be times when no one coughs, which means that there are people in every corner, but according to the rules, there is one person who keeps walking.
The extra person is the new entrant to the game.
But the difference in this scene of kissing is that the venue is bigger, and they are surrounded by this spooky lake.
The seven were spread far enough apart that coughing was inaudible, and the rules of the game did not allow them to do so.
Putting on uniform paper heads and big red costumes also made them unable to recognize each other.
This was too deliberate, almost writing the words "ghosts want to mix in with them and kill" in the rules.
After landing, the fat man immediately saw a paper figurine.
The paper figurine stood under a tree 7 or 8 meters away from the shore, with extremely exaggerated and weird makeup painted on its face, wearing a green melon skin hat, and a big braid hanging by its side.
Under the bleak moonlight, the paper figurine put on a strange posture, slightly bowed, with one arm outstretched, pointing to the dark left side.
Breathing accelerated uncontrollably, the fat man gradually turned around, followed the instructions of the paper figurine, facing left, and waited quietly without saying a word.
I don't know how long this torment lasted, but there was a "rustling" sound behind me. It sounded like someone was keeping their feet on the ground, dragging their legs on the ground and rubbing forward bit by bit.
