In the winter, the Big Bear Ridge is full of snow. There are many towering giant trees on the mountain. The trunks of the giant trees are straight and luxuriant, and the leaves are covered with heavy snow.

     

    Shen Qingcheng dragged his suitcase and walked with difficulty on the snow-covered path, the weather was cold, he was wearing a turtleneck sweater, wrapped in a thick down jacket, Wear knee-length thermal boots.

     

    "Where are you, Brother Lu," he stopped to take a breath, and shook his arms that were stiff from dragging the suitcase, "If you don't show up again, your beauty will be taken away by the bear!"

    Shen Qingcheng and Lu Qi teamed up to enter the game, just like the previous dungeon, the locations where they entered the dungeon were not uniform. It was unclear where Lu Qi was in Shen Qingcheng, but when Shen Qingcheng himself first entered the dungeon, he was on the outskirts of Daxiongling.

    How much peripheral?

      It was so quiet that I couldn't even hear the birdsong.

    There are two paths, anyone with brains knows how to choose. Shen Qingcheng, who didn't really want to vacation in the mountains in the winter, naturally picked up his suitcase and went down the mountain.

    As for the result, if he successfully descended the mountain, he would not be here. Even though he knew that the game couldn't let the player go down the mountain without completing the mission, he wouldn't give up if he didn't give Shen Qingcheng a try.

    Now that he tried it, his heart was completely dead.

    "Alas," he sighed, "If I had known, I wouldn't have wasted my energy." He got lost in the outer perimeter for a long time, wasting a lot of energy, and he still hasn't been able to enter the mountain.

    He looked up, and the sky, which was shattered by the branches of the trees, became more and more gloomy. It should snow later, and it was getting dark. The phone was automatically shut down due to the low temperature, and there was no way to contact Lu Qi.

    Thinking of this, Shen Qingcheng wanted to scold the dog game company, you are just a terminal disguised as a mobile phone, not a real mobile phone, why do you want to learn how to shut down a real mobile phone at low temperature so real!

    After resting enough, he dragged the suitcase and continued to walk forward. Suddenly, the suitcase got stuck, and he dragged it hard but did not drag it. Shen Qingcheng turned his head to look, a bluish-white stiff hand stuck out of the snow and tightly grasped the wheel of the suitcase.

    "Big brother," he shook the handle in his hand, "please let go, I'm busy on the road."

    Hands are motionless.

    Shen Qingcheng was helpless, raised his right foot and walked over, "Huh—"

    Shen Qingcheng had seen many lonely ghosts like this, who died in barren mountains and fields. He only wanted to kick the corpse's hand away, but he didn't expect to kick the part of his hand hidden under the snow. It came out, it was a broken hand.

    The severed hand was severed from the elbow, the wound was irregular, and there were many traces of beasts biting.

    Shen Qingcheng frowned.

    "Squeak." A squirrel squeaked and jumped on a nearby tree, stepping on a handful of small snowdrifts, and with a "pop", something fell on Shen Qingcheng before.

      something like blood.

    The atmosphere became inexplicably gloomy, Shen Qingcheng shuddered, and let out a white breath, "Hoo, it's so cold."

    "Shen Meiren?"

    Shen Qingcheng, who was not frightened by the broken hand and the teddy bear, was startled by Lu Qi's sudden voice, he was startled, then looked around, and said tentatively, "Lu Qi?"

    "Click, click."

    In front of the forest, Lu Qi used a knife to poke through the grass and came out. He was wrapped in a white coat and blended with the snow in the sky. Seeing the snow on Shen Qingcheng's hair and eyebrows, he frowned. He frowned and said solemnly, "Why so slow."

    Shen Qingcheng dared to say that he tried to go down the mountain, didn't he just tell Lu Qi that he forgot about him, he hit haha ​​and said innocently: "I'm lost." Looking good or not.

    Lu Qi was silent for a moment, didn't say anything, stretched out his hand to take Shen Qingcheng's suitcase, "Let's go."

    He caught a glimpse of the teddy bear on the ground "baring" its internal organs, he walked in front and asked, "Have an accident happened?"

    Shen Qingcheng followed behind with difficulty, first shaking his head, remembering that the other party could not see, then said: "No, a squirrel who did not know where it came from, and saw a severed hand, Very fresh, but I think it was bitten by a beast. Is he the player this time?"

    Lu Qi: "I don't know, there are wild beasts in the mountains, especially after the winter they can't find food, they will be extremely ferocious."

    Shen Qingcheng: "So this game must not only guard against ghosts and players, but also guard against beasts?"

    Lu Qi, who already knew that Shen Meiren was the newcomer king "Beauty Allure", was not surprised that he would ask such a basic question, saying: "To be precise, it is to guard against everything that can kill you. ."

    This... it sounds so difficult, I just want to raise an old age, why do you do this to me. Shen Qingcheng closed himself.

    Lu Qi walked away and stopped to wait for him when she heard Shen Meiren falling behind.

    "The initial difficulty of this dungeon is about A, and the mission objective is the same as before. Either survive the mission time or solve the story line. The mission location is the forest castle, which has four main NPCs..."

    "Wait, how is the difficulty of the task divided? What was the difficulty of the last dungeon?" Shen Qingcheng caught up and asked.

    Lu Qi: "Generally, it depends on the task time and the number of players. The dungeon with high difficulty has a short task time and a large number of players, and the opposite is the case with low difficulty. The difficulty of the last dungeon is B-."

    Zhou An'an said that the difficulty was medium to high at that time, which was slightly different from Lu Qi's statement.

    Shen Qingcheng: "The more difficult dungeons take less time to clear?"

    "If you don't have enough time, the player will be able to solve the complete story line," Lu Qi said. If the story line cannot be solved, the longer the task requires, the more dangerous it is. "Generally, It is said that the story line of the dungeon with high difficulty will not be too complicated.”

    Shen Qingcheng understood, nodded and asked, "How many players are there this time?" He looked at the mission time, and it was half a month.

    Lu Qi: "There are 14 players who have walked out of the forest to the castle."

    There are players who have already walked out of the forest to the castle, and naturally there are also players who can't get out of the forest, Shen Qingcheng remembered the severed hand, and wisely didn't ask what would happen if he couldn't get out of the forest, "Add me 15?"

    "Well," Lu Qi nodded and stretched out his right hand. Seeing his doubts, he said lightly, "You are too slow."

    When it was completely dark, the two saw the destination located deep in the forest. A little yellow light overflowed from the window of the old castle, giving people an indescribable ancient charm.

    Thin snowflakes began to float in the sky, Shen Qingcheng was dragged by Lu Qi deep and shallow to the door, and the whole body was almost paralyzed on Lu Qi's body.

    At this time, he will be very emotional and thankful, thanks to Lu Qi's great physical strength.

    "It's getting dark, Lu Qi hasn't come back yet, let's not wait for him, shall we?"

    "Didn't he say go out for a walk? It shouldn't go far."

    "Wait a little longer. If he comes back and finds that we didn't wait for him, everyone will be very sorry."

     "What's wrong, this is a horror game, if we delay every second, we will be in danger every second, and no one is obliged to pay for him!"

    "Hey, do you really think he's embarrassed? He's afraid that Lu Qi will find out something because he doesn't mind telling him."

     "Okay, don't argue, let's wait another ten minutes. If Lu Qi doesn't come back in ten minutes, we'll go to the castle owner to arrange a room."

    "Squeaky—" The door was pushed open, and the cold wind blew in with snowflakes.

    The Lu Qi that everyone was talking about appeared at the gate. Compared with the empty hands when he went out, when he came back, he had a suitcase in his left hand and a person in his right hand.

    Thirteen pairs of eyes looked at Shen Qingcheng, Shen Qingcheng raised his paw and waved, and took the initiative to say hello, "Hello everyone?"

    A man sitting in front of the fireplace was the first to respond, his eyes turned between Lu Qi and Shen Qingcheng, got up and took two steps forward, and asked with a smile: "Lu Qi, this bit is?"

    Lu Qi took off his fur coat, "Pick it up."

    Shen Qingcheng nodded obediently, "My name is Shen Meiren."

    "Shen Meiren?" The man repeated it, looking at Shen Qingcheng more, "Beauty? Good name, what is my name."

    He turned to the side to reveal the fireplace behind him, with a smile on his handsome face, he said gently to Shen Qingcheng, "It's freezing, come and bake the fire."

    "Lu Qi, there is a place here." A tall and beautiful woman shouted from the other side.

    The players here are obviously divided into two groups, one group is headed by a man called what is it, and the other group seems to have a strong voice in the woman who just spoke up. The number of players in the two groups is not much different. with a fireplace.

    So if there is a third fireplace, will the player automatically split into three? Shen Qingcheng thought to himself. Before he could decide whether to go there or not, a slight footstep sounded overhead.

    The leather boots stepped on the thick carpeted wooden floor and made a dull sound. Everyone followed the sound and saw a woman wearing a gorgeous palace dress on the stairs leading to the second floor of the castle.

    The woman has a coquettish face, heavy makeup, and a red fox fur shawl that looks very warm. She stopped when she was seven or eight steps away from the ground, raised her chin and smiled at everyone downstairs.

    "Welcome to the Forest Castle, the masquerade will officially start in 7 days. During this period, as the hostess of the castle, you must fully obey my arrangements."

    As soon as the woman opened her mouth, everyone could not help frowning secretly. The voice of this beautiful looking woman was unexpectedly sharp and very harsh.

    Another reason for frowning is the information revealed in the woman's words, and she must obey her arrangements completely?

    After the woman finished speaking, what is the responsibility of inquiring, he asked politely: "Beautiful lady, do you know what to pay attention to in the castle?"

    The woman did not give him a good face because of the praise, she clapped her hands lightly, and suddenly a group of servants in uniform black and white clothes appeared on the left and right sides of the hall with silver trays in their hands .

    There were 15 players present, and 15 servants walked to one player with trays.

    Shen Qingcheng looked at it, there were masks upside down in the tray, and all the servants looked numb, like stiff marionettes that only act according to the master's command, no matter what the player does No response to inquiries.

    The woman stood on the stairs and watched them silently.

    An impatient male player picked up the mask in the tray. The mask was red all over, except for a small white mark like a cat's paw print on the left corner of the eye.

    "The mask? What is it for?" The male player looked over and over.

    Seeing that there was nothing wrong with the man, a curious female player also picked up the mask in front of her, "Ah, it's different." Her mask is the exact opposite of the male player. There is a small red feather mark in the corner of the right eye.

    Two people in succession took the masks and they were all safe, which gave the other players confidence. They stretched out their hands one after another, and Shen Qingcheng also opened the mask in front of him.

     

    The woman who had been silent at this time said, "Very well, this is the mask you will use at the dance party in 7 days." A slightly excited smile appeared on her overly white face.
