The villagers of Huangni Village are trapped in some kind of weird cycle.
Keep doing repetitive actions like a game character.
Xiao Gao suddenly thought that Huang Lei had been trapped in Huangni Village for seven years, but her memory only lasted two days.
Could it also be caused by this cycle?
In normal times, these non-human villagers in Huangni Village would continue to repeat the cycle within a few days and last for decades.
It's just because of the arrival of Brother Qi tonight that changes have occurred and this cycle has been shortened.
Why does this kind of gamification scenario appear?
According to the records in the archives of the Spirit Management Bureau, what is known about Huangni Village is only a few words from the adventurer who escaped from Huangni Village at the beginning of the incident.
Subsequent explorations were unsuccessful.
I don’t know much about this local spiritual management bureau.
In Huangni Village.
Wang Qi curiously explored the bright and lively streets.
Zheng Ziyu, who was a little panicked, suddenly saw a vendor selling candied haws on the street.
Perhaps because the red candied haws were too tempting, the zombie Taoist priest Xiaozhang who was following him couldn't help but get closer.
When Xiao Zhan approached the hawker, the hawker immediately took a bunch off the shelf and handed it to Xiao Zhan.
He said enthusiastically: "Let's have a bunch of candied haws."
"Oh." Xiao Zhan quickly reached out to pick it up.
But the next moment the hawker put the candied haws on the shelf again.
Its smile remained unchanged from beginning to end, and then it took off the candied haws.
"Let's have a bunch of candied haws."
After saying that, I have to insert the candied haws on the shelf again...
Normally, ghosts would be frightened when encountering this situation, but Xiao Zhan only felt unhappy and grabbed the hawker's wrist directly.
Give it to me! The girl's eyes widened.
The hawker tried to take the candied haws back, but the little zombie refused to let go.
So the stalemate began.
Zheng Ziyu couldn't help but go over to persuade Xiaozhang, why are you arguing with "NPCs"...
Snap, and then he watched helplessly as the vendor's arm was broken.
However, the hawker turned sideways, with his empty arms, as if he was continuing to insert the candied haws on the shelf.
He turned around again, as if he was handing out candied haws.
"Let's have a bunch of candied haws."
The smile remains the same.
There was no blood flowing out of its broken arm.
You can see the yellow mud cut surface.
This is a moving yellow clay statue.
The severed arm and the bunch of candied haws in Xiao Zhan's hands began to melt rapidly and turned into mud and fell to the ground.
"Yeah..." Xiao Zhan stared at the ground, then looked at Wang Qi who was standing next to him.
Quietly, he kicked the puddle of mud under the stall's car with his feet.
He walked to other places with a nonchalant expression.
Zheng Ziyu: "..."
Then Zheng Ziyu's expression changed, and she quickly said to Wang Qi with some urgency: "I don't know where my companions have gone. We have to find them quickly!"
These are lines written by Li Chen.
Promote the game and instruct the player on the next action.
In the live broadcast, the protagonist Dr. Wang’s subtitle lines also appeared:
"This village is full of weirdos. Maybe we need to walk around first to find them."
After seeing this line of dialogue, Wang Qi understood: "Next, it seems that we have to search for useful information in the village to find the whereabouts of Xiao Huang's three companions."
As he spoke, he began to explore the village, which was full of the style of the 1980s and 1990s.
Keep talking to villagers along the way to trigger dialogue.
This kind of horror adventure game relies on this method to obtain information.
"I heard that tonight's song is The Legend of White Snake!"
“Have you seen the new tractor the village chief’s family bought?”
"Er Gou's cat has given birth to a litter of puppies, and I want one to raise."
"Freshly baked and hot."
…
This situation is simply too normal for a game.
Wang Qi also discussed with the audience in the live broadcast room that the scenes and characters of this game are very beautifully done.
There are almost no identical villagers in the village.
It’s enough to see the game developers’ intentions.
Inside the horror house.
Huang Lei was touched by the scene shown in the live broadcast, and seemed to remember more things.
Xiao Gao asked: "Is this different from the Huangni Village in your memory?"
"I remember this was a somewhat weird village. Everyone was very kind, but their bodies were as stiff as clay sculptures... There was a feeling of panic."
Huang Lei tried to remember: "But it wasn't like this at the time."
Xiao Gao asked quickly: "You also felt that something was wrong with this village at that time?"
"Yes... we thought the village was very strange from the beginning. Originally we just wanted to rest for one night and leave immediately after dawn..." Huang Lei continued to recall.
In her memory, she stayed in Huangni Village for a total of two days.
That night they arrived at Huangni Village and were warmly received by the village chief.
Everyone was very vigilant at that time.
When they were about to sleep at the place arranged by the village chief, the village chief suddenly came over and invited them to have dinner and watch a play.
Her companions were so kind that they could not refuse and left.
Huang Lei stayed in the house to rest because she felt unwell.
But after the three of them came back, something became strange.
We began to get involved in the happy atmosphere of the village and discussed how wonderful the play was.
Then he fell into a deep sleep.
Huang Lei couldn't wake them up no matter how she screamed.
Until tonight, she decided to leave alone and happened to meet Wang Qi.
Xiao Gao thought about Huang Lei's words and asked: "After the three of them fell asleep, you kept trying to wake them up for the next time?"
"That's right, but they were so fast asleep that I couldn't wake them up," Huang Lei said.
Xiao Gao seemed to understand something and said thoughtfully: "Then the villagers didn't make things difficult for you?"
Huang Lei shook her head, and more memories poured into her mind.
"No, actually they... don't seem to care about me... except the village chief's daughter!"
"The village chief's daughter?" Xiao Gao's eyes lit up.
Huang Lei nodded quickly: "She said her name is Luo Tianqing, and she looks a little different from other people in the village..."
Xiao Gao opened his eyes wide: "Luo Tianqing is indeed in Huangni Village...how did she become the village chief's daughter?"
The three families in Huangni Village are headed by the Luo family. Before Luo Ji left Huangni Village, his family may have served as the village chief.
After Luo Tianqing was brought back, was he assigned this identity?
"Did Luo Tianqing say anything to you?" Xiao Gao then asked.
"She, she spent money to buy my hairpin, but then I discovered that the banknote was a ghost banknote... I thought, she, she might be a ghost..." Huang Lei, who was pale, said with a trembling tone.
.
The ghosts in the horror house: "emmm..."
"I, I realized something was wrong and wanted to leave only after I received this ghost note." Huang Lei continued.
While she was talking, she was still groping around her body, trying to find the ghost note.
But suddenly he was stunned: "Why is that piece of money missing..."
"Ming Chao?" Xiao Gao's expression perked up, he subconsciously turned his head, walked around Lao Chen who was sitting in the middle, and exchanged glances with Lin Lin.
Zhu Zihao told Lin Lin the information about Ming Chao, and Lin Lin naturally told Xiao Gao and Lao Chen.
At this time, the two of them began to speculate: The money Luo Tianqing gave to Huang Lei was not given to her by Brother Qi, right?
After the live broadcast at Tongxian No. 5 Middle School, Brother Qi mentioned that he wanted to give Luo Tianqing a red envelope...
It was this piece of money that determined the location of Huangni Village.
It was only after Huang Lei got this ghost note that she woke up from her confusion and wanted to escape from Huangni Village.
She would meet Brother Qi by chance, maybe she was guided by Ming Chao...
Xiaogao and Linlin figured this out and couldn't help but feel encouraged.
This answered the question they had always wondered: "So that's how it is."
Lao Chen, who was caught in the middle, looked at the expressions of his two companions: "Uh... Brother Qi is awesome!"
