Novel Bin Chapter 23: And who is the person he is dancing with now?
Chapter 23: And who is the person he is dancing with now?
Wuji Gu is a little surprised, how it seems that he just left a little, Zheng and they look at him with a lot of enthusiasm, as if they are some long-lost friends.
"You're back at last." Sidun Ao looked at Wuji Gu, obviously disturbed by what had just happened, "Next time don't leave my side, these guys are not reliable at all, it's a burden to have them with me."
Sidun Ao also looked at Zheng and the others with a dissatisfied expression, "When you get off the ship, you guys are waiting to be fired!"
Zheng and the others are just players, and they don't feel a bit guilty about not performing their bodyguard duties. After all, not everyone is like Wuji Gu.
Even Zheng had a feeling of gratitude, if they had performed outstandingly, wouldn't they also be named by this young master Sidun Ao to follow? Then I don't know how much trouble will happen again.
"Of course it's no problem, of course I will protect you." Wuji Gu nodded, although the bodyguard was just a status assigned to him by the system, he had always been a very professional person.
Looking back at the party, Sidun Ao looked bummed out and grunted, "I don't even want to stay after what happened."
Others certainly have such thoughts, but the clues also ...... they immediately looked to Wuji Gu and Ling Jiang , Wuji Gu nodded to them, indicating that he had gotten the clues.
Zheng and the others immediately expressed their strong agreement with Sidun Ao's words, "I think what young master Sidun Ao said is very good, let's just leave quickly."
"Yes, a party of such low quality is not worthy of Master Sidun Ao's caliber."
Originally they came here to look for clues, and now it seems that Wuji Gu has found clues from the captain, there is no need for them to remain in this haunted hall.
But as the crowd tried to leave, the ship suddenly shook violently, and the doors slammed shut abruptly and heavily.
"What, what's going on?"
They looked out through the huge glass floor-to-ceiling window next to them, only to see the sea, which was previously calm, suddenly rippling, with huge waves constantly hitting the deck, making the whole ship shake.
Good thing the door and glass on this side are still strong enough, but if you go out at this point, even if you don't get killed by the ghost, you will be swept away by the waves directly!
The crowd sucked in a breath of cold air, suddenly heard the sound of footsteps, turned around to see, but there are several people with twisted bodies came up. Visit no(v)eLb(i)n.𝘤𝑜𝓂 for the best novel reading experience
It was a few slender women, dressed in exquisite and beautiful dresses, but their bodies were like being crushed by something heavy, some limbs were unnaturally twisted, and the original pretty face was stained with blood, and the corners of their mouths cracked to the ears when they smiled.
From the attitude of those attentive passers-by around, we can see that they should be some very popular lady or something when they were still alive, but no matter how it was then, now they all seem to be just ghosts!
" Young Master Sidun Ao, there is still a ball coming up, don't leave so soon." A female ghost voice rang out, the voice was hoarse and harsh, and it made one's ears ring.
"That's right, that's right, no matter what, you have to come dance with one of us today, I don't think young master Sidun Ao won't give us that face." The other female ghost laughed.
There is also a tendency that if Sidun Ao does not agree, they will be haunted ...... Of course, if it is just ordinary girls, of course, no problem, but the problem is that these are clearly hideous female ghosts ah!
The crowd sucked in a breath of cold air, feeling that the young master Sidun Ao is simply life is not long, right, even if he does not die are all kinds of trouble to come to the door, now just to a banquet, it is twice faced with life and death crisis, simply than they players are more prone to danger.
"What a nuisance ......" Sidun Ao's face was tinged with boredom, apparently he had no patience for these female ghosts either, but one of them was the daughter of the person their family was working with, and it wouldn't be good to offend them here.
Although Sidun Ao is a playboy, he has a sense of proportion and knows that his actions in the outside world should not have any impact on the family.
Seeing that the female ghosts are going to stick up, open their bloody mouths and look like they can take a bite of Sidun Ao to swallow, the others are trembling and take a few steps back, and their eyes unconsciously fall on Wuji Gu.
The only one who can come to the rescue at this time is Wuji Gu!
But even if Wuji Gu sacrifices himself to dance with a female ghost this time, it won't help, there are so many female ghosts waiting here!
And they, there is absolutely no way they will go out and dance with some female ghost! Sidun Ao this time seems to be no matter what ......
"Ladies, excuse me." Wuji Gu finally stepped forward and spoke, holding Sidun Ao's hand as he spoke and said, "This time, Young Master Sidun Ao is ready to dance with me, so I can only say sorry to you all."
The tone of Wuji Gu's words can be said to be extremely sincere, as well as his sincere eyes, vaguely revealing a few complex feelings for Sidun Ao, no matter how to look at it is not a show.
Of course, this is just Wuji Gu's professionalism as an actor.
Players are dumbfounded: "......"
The women ghosts: "......"
At first the other players were shocked, but then they realized that this was Wuji Gu's strategy to save Sidun Ao! Because Wuji Gu was so good at acting, they almost thought they were really in love with this male NPC ......
Even Ling Jiang and the others, who are also players, were almost fooled by Wuji Gu, not to mention the female ghosts, who instantly showed embarrassed smiles.
God knows how Zheng and the others can see such emotions as embarrassment on this terrible face of the female ghost.
"I'm really sorry, I didn't expect Young Master Sidun Ao to ...... actually ...... then we won't bother you anymore." The female ghosts have backed away, did not expect that young master Sidun Ao actually has sexual orientation problems, then of course they are no longer the slightest bit interested in him.
The crowd was relieved to see such a situation, and began to admire Wuji Gu's resourcefulness, actually thought of such a method to dissuade these female ghosts, without having to sacrifice themselves, so now the problem should be solved, right?
However, their smiles froze when their eyes fell on the face of Young Master Sidun Ao.
Sidun Ao that had been hanging unbeatable arrogant expression of handsome appearance, at this time, actually, with a few, how to describe ...... he actually, embarrassed! Also with a subtle look at Wuji Gu , "I did not expect that you to me actually ......"
Crowd: "......!!!"
Shit, what is this, what is this unfolding.
Although they were once heard in the player forum, some powerful characters can even brush up on the goodwill of npc to get all kinds of information, but like this directly in the scene to see or the first time ah!
And not to mention what Sidun Ao up, if they are such a handsome a person of all kinds to save, it is estimated that they will be moved ...... of course their sexual orientation is very normal, it is just the suspension bridge effect plus the other side of the face is really over the reason.
It is really too powerful. For a while Zheng several people have suspected that Wuji Gu is actually the kind of cheating big brother mentioned in the forum, running to this copy for casual fun.
Wuji Gu himself froze when he saw his opponent's reaction, and he began to wonder if his acting skills were really that strong. He was surprised that Sidun Ao thought he was interested in him.
Wuji Gu originally wanted to speak directly to explain, but noticed that there are still many eerie eyes around measuring the place, if you make an explanation, it may attract the attention of those ghosts.
He had to leave it unexplained for now, but Wuji Gu avoided Sidun Ao's question, hoping the other man would understand the implication in his words, " Young Master Sidun Ao, would you like to dance with me then?"
"Of course there's nothing wrong with it." Sidun Ao said, actually rare a little shy, then to cover up but with a condescending tone spoke, "But I think you should not know how to dance, I will also guide you well, can not let you disgrace me."
Subsequently, the hall lights dimmed, lively music played, other tables and some other miscellaneous items were removed, and the place was actually really going to start a ball.
The creepy thing is that the staff members who are pulling the instruments around them are no longer human, but a few skeletons.
The music played by the skeleton was extremely eerie, and not much more frightening than the haunted house soundtracks they had heard in reality in the past.
Even the wind and waves outside at this time became bigger, crashing against the hull and making disturbing sounds.
Originally, Zheng and the others just wanted to stay in the corner and wait for the ball to end, but standing next to the glass floor-to-ceiling window, they suddenly heard the jarring sound of something rubbing against the glass ring out behind them.
After a few people turned their heads, they saw a body covered with water stains appeared outside the glass window, the whole body clinging to it, swollen face have been close at hand, sharp nails are still constantly scratching the glass door and window.
"Holy shit!" "What's all this!"
"They're crawling out of the water? What the hell is going on in this place-"
The crowd was so scared that their souls were going to fly, they could not believe the quality of the glass, they could only enter the middle part of the hall with a stiff upper lip, and while everyone else was already dancing and they were standing dry, the ghosts around them all looked over with a look of alienation.
"It looks like it's going to have to be a dance to make it happen."
It just so happened that they were left with four people, and could not care less, several people danced hard together, at this time around the ghosts of the gaze before disappearing.
At the same time, their hearts are thankful that they did not leave from the banquet site before, now this hall although the ghosts, but at least maintain the surface of the calm. If people were outside, they would have been dead! Sure enough this banquet is an indispensable part of this copy.
Over there, Sidun Ao and Wuji Gu entered the dance floor together with some nice fantasies in mind, but soon, most of his original charming thoughts disappeared.
The only reason is that Wuji Gu really can't dance and keeps stepping on each other's feet. Thanks to Wuji Gu now also used no strength, otherwise Sidun Ao young master's feet will be directly ruined.
Sidun Ao as a pampered rich young man has never been this aggravated, several times want to attack, but after seeing Wuji Gu innocent look to hold back, told himself that this kind of thing is still very normal.
In fact, Wuji Gu also did not spend his mind on dancing at all, but observed the surroundings and outside the glass floor-to-ceiling windows, he kept in mind what happened in the previous dream, his eyes looked towards the floor-to-ceiling windows, and in the darkness, he vaguely felt as if a pair of eyes had been watching him.
If the dream is real, then the sight that has been watching her is from this deep sea ......
Wuji Gu forced himself to avert his eyes from looking out further.
As for the hall, the captain's figure has long disappeared, do not know where to go. As far as the eye can see, only the unaware of the living and dead dancing together in the bizarre music.
It was as if everyone else was immersed in a dream except for a few of their players.
In a trance, Wuji Gu eyes a blur, see everything around suddenly brightened up, and around the dancing ghosts turned into ordinary people, and those faces are very familiar, it is in the boat once bumped into those guests, there are even the guests who have turned into ghosts of the face.
The hands holding him tightened, and a thought suddenly came to Wuji Gu's mind.
And who is the person he is dancing with now?
Obviously there should not be such doubts, but his instincts were so strong at this moment that he knew he had to see it.
But at this point, his body was as if it was not listening to itself, just shifting his eyes such an ordinary thing is difficult to the extreme, just when he was finally about to gaze at the person -
The lines on his arms suddenly burst into a roll, violently pulling Wuji Gu's consciousness back.
His face suddenly turned pale, only to feel that the dream had just consumed too much of his strength, and when he raised his head to look across the room, he could only see Sidun Ao's face.
Wuji Gu couldn't help but think, "What's going on, what the hell did I just see?"
That, according to common sense, is now this ship is impossible to appear in the picture, although said as a ghost created illusion is not much of a problem ...... but his intuition that the illusion he saw would not be something inexplicable like that, which must be what the instructions.
Then look around the other players, they are all twisted face stiff dance, especially forced to dance together Zheng and Ling Jiang , two people have been extremely ugly face, but in order to live or can only dance hard ......
So it seems that the others did not see the illusion just now.
Wuji Gu abruptly remembered that he had been unable to use the ghost mastering to summon the surrounding ghosts in this ship, and then look at the outside world, at this time the outside world has been much calmer, and even the corpses outside the glass windows have completely disappeared, as if the previous picture was a dream they were having.
At that moment, he suddenly saw something.
"Young Master Auster, I have something to do, I'll go first." Wuji Gu opened his mouth.
"Eh? Eh? Wait, you ......" Before Sidun Ao could react, Wuji Gu had already let go of his hand and darted into the crowd and disappeared.
Sidun Ao, who was left behind, looked down at his loosened hand and was a bit confused.
Without anyone seeing it, a blood-colored stripe emerged on one of his eyes.
......
"You, you stay away!"
Ke Jie was standing on the edge of the deck, his face was so ugly that his body couldn't help but take a few steps backward and hit the railing directly.
He has no way back.
Standing in front of him are two monsters, although vaguely still visible in human form, the body is also still the size of the two bodyguards before, but already in any case can not use human to describe them! It was as if they had just crawled out of a horror movie ......
God knows how this happened, before Ke Jie was still in the room to reprimand the two bodyguards, only to have the ship a shaking, when he stood firm, the two bodyguards suddenly underwent a huge transformation, into such a horrible monster image now!
Ke Jie, of course, ran out in fear, but no matter how much he called for help, none of them actually came out, and now they were forced back by the monster to such a place.
"How could this happen, what are you trying to do, I'm your employer! You can't do anything to me!" Ke Jie Cold sweat continued to trickle down his face.
At that moment, a monster snapped forward and the corrosive liquid in its mouth fell directly in front of Ke Jie's face, scaring him and closing his eyes, and heard the sound of crisp fractures.
Ke Jie opened one eye and saw that the monster's arm had been broken in front of him, and his body was pinned to the ground by a slender figure, unable to move at all, only hissing.
The other monster's only remaining instinct noticed that something was wrong and thought nothing of leaving the area.
Wuji Gu looked at the monster that was pressed down by himself, his heart also relieved, in fact, he just saw here, the heart is not too sure to come.
He grew up with strength beyond the ordinary, and I do not know if it is because this often hit the ghost of the physique and brought, in short, use it or quite convenient, but also let some of the class because they think he is weird students can not make the bullying operation to.
But in the past, Wuji Gu's strength was just much greater than normal, but after entering this so-called infinite horror world, he found that his strength had actually grown again, and now looks extremely impressive.
Wuji Gu think of the ghost mastering ability you got before, these copies should also be able to get similar power enhancing ability ......
Of course the main reason why he was able to solve this monster so quickly was because the ghost mastering technique also helped partly, just when using the ghost mastering ability, Wuji Gu could clearly feel that there was another weird power fighting against him, so he could not completely restrain these low-level ghosts.
Ke Jie was relieved to see Wuji Gu, and wondered what kind of luck Sidun Ao had to have to hire such a bodyguard! It was much more reliable than his two bodyguards who had turned into monsters, so he stabilized himself and said, "How much did Sidun Ao pay for you! I'll pay twice as much!"
"It's not necessary." Wuji Gu said casually, he originally came out, saving people just in passing, or actually to verify one thing.
The monster in front of him, Wuji Gu's hand emits a shimmering light that is invisible to the average person, which is the purification technique he bought at a cost of 1,000 points just before.
In theory, this purification technique is able to directly purify the low-level ghosts that have no sanity.
But under the light, the monster just struggled more fiercely, except for the pain to the extreme, without the slightest trace of being purified.
"System, why is this?"
[Because the resentment in this ghost has not been lifted and cannot be purified].
"But it's just a low-level ghost, isn't it?"
The system then did not reply again.
When Wuji Gu heard this, he already had an idea in his mind.
Now that he has completed his verification, Wuji Gu simply lets go of the monster, which struggles to run away.
Although they look like monsters, they are still ghosts, and Wuji Gu can't really do anything to kill them, so that's the only way to deal with them.
"What the hell!" Ke Jie immediately looked at Wuji Gu with dissatisfaction, "How can you let this guy go, what if they come back to retaliate against me!"
Wuji Gu looked at Ke Jie for a moment, then suddenly realized something and quickly stepped forward, his tone with a sense of urgency, "Why can you suddenly see what they really look like?"
"What why? I just saw it." Ke Jie coldly grunted, suddenly realized what, "Surely you have found out long ago! I can't believe you never said anything about ...... you guys just ignored my life! Damn, now you must protect my safety!"
Wuji Gu looked at Ke Jie and knew that he didn't know anything.
Is it because of the unexpected storm that just happened? Or is it because this place is unbinding the ghosts step by step that the ordinary NPCs inside are noticing the ghosts as well?
But no matter what, Wuji Gu is not that leisure to care about this guy's death, directly turned away, "I'm not your bodyguard, and I can do, you figure it out."
"Damn it!" Ke Jie was furious behind him, but he didn't dare to stay on the deck alone and ran in the direction Wuji Gu had left.
But the surrounding lights are now darkened, he actually half a day can not find a person, want to call Wuji Gu, Wuji Gu has been the shadow of no longer.
"What's going on, this crappy cruise ship." Ke Jie all can't help cursing, turning his head to look aside, this is a store selling luxury clothing during the day, but at night time look inside has been pitch black, not even a little light, with a kind of indescribable eerie.
"Damn it ...... how could this happen ......"
Ke Jie heart subconsciously raised, but then saw a crew member coming around the corner in front of them, the other hand also carried a flashlight, seems to be patrolling the ship.
"Finally, there's someone." Ke Jie finally breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly ran over quickly, "What's going on? What the hell is wrong with this crappy boat of yours-"
After seeing the crew member's face, his face was already full of fear and the rest of his words stuck in his throat, unable to spit out another half word.
......
The party is finally over.
The moment the door opened, Zheng and the others simply could not wait to rush out, only Ling Jiang remembered to keep an eye on Sidun Ao, lest this employer encounter any danger.
They bumped into Wuji Gu, who was hurrying back.
I didn't expect Wuji Gu just actually rushed out directly, this boldness is too big, they actually saw, but simply did not have the courage to run with each other.
If it is a normal person, at that time to run out is simply to go looking for death, right! But if it is Wuji Gu ...... they surprisingly all feel very reliable at one time.
But since Sidun Ao was nearby, no one else could ask what was going on.
"What's wrong, where have you been?" Sidun Ao doesn't look like he's in a good mood and hums a little when he sees Wuji Gu.
" Young Master Sidun Ao, I am very sorry, I just had something to do so I came out." Wuji Gu knew why the other party was angry, and immediately said with an apology, "I will be by your side next time."
"That's more like it!" Sidun Ao looked at him with a bit of gnashing of teeth, "You are my highly paid bodyguard, do you want to protect anyone else if you don't protect me?"
Others have closed their mouths, they are still the first time in the copy to see such a wonderful, how to say, such as if the dog drama will appear in the plot ......
Wuji Gu himself is confused, but he is completely unaware that Sidun Ao actually has some interest in him, and thought that Sidun Ao is not happy with him for not fulfilling his duties, so he hurriedly said that he will never do it again, and will definitely follow Sidun Ao properly.
Sidun Ao is now satisfied.
Others: "......" always feel that these two people are subtly not on the same channel ah.
Anyway, the dangerous party was finally over for the night, and after escorting Sidun Ao to his room, Wuji Gu went back to his room with Ling Jiang after talking to them about what had happened since he met George and how the ship might become more and more dangerous.
Wuji Gu washed up, or tightened the curtains, and felt a lot more at ease after not seeing the sea, before lying in bed.
At that moment Ling Jiang suddenly asked, "What are you going to do about the captain's diary?"
"Let's go and see tomorrow." Wuji Gu thought about it and spoke, "I've memorized the route while the captain is away, it shouldn't be a problem."
Tonight's words are also too fast, and everyone is already very tired spirit, if you go to do anything else, encounter ghosts run can not run away.
"Good." Ling Jiang's face changed for a while, as if he was thinking about something extremely prudent, and finally hesitated before speaking to him, "Originally, I didn't want to say it, but since it's you, I'll tell you."
If it is the person in front of you, you will not make that kind of thing in order to leave without killing your teammates.
"What?" Wuji Gu looked at him suspiciously.
"I'm not sure if you're already clear on that, it was a clue I bought with points before coming to this copy." Ling Jiang said.
Wuji Gu : "...... It turns out that you can buy clues with points?"
Ling Jiang : "......???"
What the hell you don't know what the clues are?
They all thought Wuji Gu must have gotten the most detailed clues to be so reckless!
Ling Jiang felt that things were more urgent, and immediately spoke, "Anyway, I'll talk to you now. The clue I got is about this ship ......"
He took a piece of paper from his body and handed it directly to Wuji Gu.
Wuji Gu took the piece of paper and looked at it carefully. It should be a corner of the newspaper, which clearly stated that a ship had an accident at sea, and obviously the ship was still in good shape, but all the people inside had disappeared.
Other than that, all other parts were torn out, and it is not known what the details were.
At first glance, he would have thought the report was about an accident that happened on the ship several years ago, but when Wuji Gu took a closer look at the date, he was shocked and took out his phone to check the time.
The date in the newspaper is actually several days after the present.
"That's right, what is written on this newspaper is exactly what will appear on this ship in the future." Ling Jiang said: "generally spend points to get the clues are random, and will not be so clearly written out, all need to be speculated ...... although there are said to be special means to know more, but that would not be something that ordinary players like us can know. "
"So that's it." Wuji Gu nodded.
No wonder Ling Jiang was so sure that the captain had problems, after all, he knew exactly what would happen to the ship afterwards.
"There was absolutely no hint in the mission that the ship was meant to sail for several days, but it's clear that there may not be much time left for us to do so." Ling Jiang spoke with a grimace, "We must get the captain's journal tomorrow or else ......"
Who knows what will happen on this ship after that!
Just now, the ship has almost half of the people have become ghosts, if they do not have time to complete the main line to leave, do not need to think about it will be how the end.
After the two finished their discussion, they didn't say anything more and just closed their eyes and went to sleep.
Ling Jiang felt relieved, he felt that these things that have been pressing on his heart, at this time seem to be lighter, after all, he was not such a cold person.
......
In the midst of drowsiness.
Wuji Gu opened his eyes, is in a deep bottomless water, surrounded by the same group of muddled dead souls.
He had this dream again ah ......
Wuji Gu thought blankly.
Only this time, it was as if his body would be swept away by the current at any moment, becoming difficult to control.
What's going on here?
Wuji Gu's mind is not as active in the dream world as it is in reality, but only vaguely feels strange.
The surrounding dead souls originally numb face also showed a look of fear, as if there is a presence underwater that makes them extremely fearful, with very fast speed swimming upstream.
Wuji Gu's body also followed them uncontrollably, and soon he could clearly see the destination of the dead souls.
It's the cruise ship.
From this angle, Wuji Gu could clearly see the blurred faces of the people dancing in the glass windows of the cruise ship from the water, as well as the bodies that couldn't wait to climb up to the edge of the ship, their swollen and twisted faces with a look of madness, so to speak.
It's as if, if they could find someone to replace them, they would be relieved.
......
With a sudden jolt, Wuji Gu woke up.
He covered his forehead and realized that what he had just dreamt might be what had happened outside the cabin at the previous ball.
Now that I think about it, it is possible that the disappearance of the people on this last ship was not only because the people on board were disguised as ghosts, but also because of the danger that came from the sea.
Wuji Gu looked down at his wrist, and the pattern associated with the sect became clearer and hotter.
"What the hell is this, it's what made me have that dream, right ......"
Wuji Gu muttered, suddenly noticing a difference in the room.
The curtains, which had been drawn, were now, again, drawn.
