CHAPTER 4.3: GHOST ANIMAL (1)

   Su Xiangsheng was very interested in this sensitivity.

  “This game is full of dangers. The sensitivity may be perception or premonition. Having a 98 stat should be rare in the whole game. Shuangshuang may become a powerful psychic in the future.”

    Afraid of ghosts Zhu Shuangshuang: “?”

    “No, thanks.”

    Su Xiangsheng laughed, “Don’t be afraid. This little Taoist priest will catch ghosts for you.”

    “...”

    If she heard this sentence in real life, Zhu Shuangshuang might want to curse. But it gave her a feeling of safety here.

    Su Xiangsheng laughed again. He didn’t intend to take advantage of the little girl. She said one of her own statistics, and he also said one, “It’s okay to have poor physical strength. My physical strength is 86, which is excellent.”

    Ning Su heard this. He knew he should follow the flow of conversation, so he said, “My stamina is 32.”

    “...”

    After a few seconds, Su Xiangsheng changed the topic a bit forcefully, “Physical strength and attack power are ranked together, so there should be a correlation between the two.”

    Zhu Shuangshuang shook her head, “Not necessarily, agility and sensitivity are ranked together, but my agility is not high.”

    The three discussed the data again, and Su Xiangsheng suddenly sighed.

    “We already know how powerful that black robe man is. The fat man looks a little afraid of Chen Tian and Chen Qing. They are also veteran players, and they should have some powerful weapons or skills. On the other hand, we are still on the stage of studying what the data means.”

    “...”

    Zhu Shuangshuang: “Don’t be discouraged, although we haven’t figured out the data yet. Three cobblers are equal to one Zhuge Liang! (*1)”

    The three cobblers continued to move forward.

    If they couldn’t understand the data, then just give up for now.

    When approaching the entrance of the village, they heard a car horn.

    “Is this a group of wedding cars?” Zhu Shuangshuang turned her head and saw a row of luxury cars, which were filled with beautiful flowers, and the word “囍“ (*2) was pasted on them.

    An ordinary-looking man leaned out of the window behind the first car, “Hey, are you here to take a vacation in Huaiyang Village? Welcome.”

    The man was wearing a decent suit, with a kind face. He looked very enthusiastic. “Today, it just so happens that we are getting married, and you are welcome to come and join the wedding banquet.”

    Su Xiangsheng and Zhu Shuangshuang were very cautious. They entered the dungeon for the first time, and they were very careful in every step, feeling that death invitations were everywhere, and they dared not promise anything casually.

    Ning Su tilted his head: “Oh, good! Congratulations.”

    “...”

    For a person who entered the dungeon just to eat, the temptation of a wedding was indeed greater.

    When the groom heard what he said, the smile on his face became even brighter.

    An exquisite girl in a wedding dress also poked her head over. Obviously, she was the bride.

    She was also very enthusiastic. “There is still a long way to go in the village. There is still space in the car. Why don’t you join us?”

   They didn’t get in the car. How could they?

    Ning Su bent his eyes: “Oh, good! Thank you.”

    “...”

    Ning Su got into the car under the guidance of the enthusiastic groom, and Zhu Shuangshuang and Su Xiangsheng had no choice but to follow.

    Before Su Xiangsheng got into the car, he lowered his eyes and looked.

    It was around nine o’clock in the morning, and the bright sunlight landed on the ground, slanting the shadows of a group of cars and people leaning out of the window.

    Su Xiangsheng felt relieved and got into the car after Zhu Shuangshuang.

    After watching them get into the car from a distance, Chen Qing said: “Why didn’t that car stop in front of us, but stopped in front of them, and took them away?”

    “It is a good thing they could collect clues along the way.”

    Chen Tian put down the binoculars, picked up the map he had just drawn, and said to the two behind them: “In this kind of copy with a fixed and small area, the first thing to do is to draw a map. It will become an important community resource, and with the guidance of the map, we can collect clues more clearly, and it can also help us escape when the game is at its climax.”

    The two nodded quickly.

    Looking at the map, Chen Tian suddenly frowned and didn’t speak for a long time.

    Chen Qing asked: “Brother, what’s the matter?”

    Chen Tian frowned and said: “This village only has one road leading to the outside, and the traffic is not very developed. The two surrounding mountains have no signs of reclamation and mining, and the trees on the mountain are very ordinary. There is no characteristic agriculture, no tourism development, and no large factories in the village.”

    The man behind him made a suspicious “ah” sound, obviously not understanding.

    As Chen Tian’s twin sister, Chen Qing understood. She said, “Just now we asked that stupid young man named Ning Su what he found. He said that this village is very rich.”

    The villas and the cars that entered and exit the village all looked luxurious.

    The other team felt that what Ning Su said was meaningless nonsense, so they left with a mockery.

    “But why is the village rich in such conditions? Where does their money come from?”

    The man was taken aback.

    Chen Qing said: “This kind of contradiction is likely to be a key breakthrough.”

    Chen Tian looked at the map, thoughtful, “When we asked that stupid boy just now, did he really just say it meaninglessly?”
