Chapter 173 Blind Town (3)
Lu Yuanshi stopped.
He thought Xiao Huai would leave just like that.
But at this time Xiao Huai turned his head and looked at him: "What's wrong?"
"You really have more and more friends now." Lu Yuanshi said in a low voice.
Xiao Huai raised his eyes, walked in front of him, and put his hands behind his back.
When he turned his head to look at Lu Yuan, a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Every word was deeply engraved in Lu Yuanshi's heart:
"You're my friend too."
Lu Yuanshi's pupils dilated slightly.
Xiao Huai: "Friends don't need to pay to play games together."
He doesn't accept invitations to play with others.
Because for friends, playing games together is free.
The presence of friends makes the game more meaningful.
Although I don’t know why Lu Yuanshi always appears in the same copy with him.
But gradually, Xiao Huai seemed to have gotten used to his presence and company.
Lu Yuanshi's brows relaxed, and he stood beside him, whispering softly to himself:
"it is good."
He never thought that he would become someone's friend one day.
Everything seemed to be going the way he wanted.
He had seen Xiao Huai reaching the eighteenth level of the game copy. He was so dazzling and brilliant.
What an honor it is to be his friend.
Lu Yuanshi held Xiao Huai's scarred left wrist, not giving him a chance to break free:
"Hello, my friend, do you think I can protect you?"
Xiao Huai raised his eyebrows, "You'd better protect yourself first."
Lu Yuanshi smiled and stopped talking, but just held his left wrist tightly without letting go.
Xiao Huai knew that once Lu Yuanshi caught him, he would be stuck like a dog-skin plaster.
He let him hold it like that.
As the group headed towards the guest rooms, they couldn't help but stop when they passed a courtyard.
A large stage was built in the middle of the yard. It stood tall in the center of the yard, with a flying eaves-like roof and upturned corners, like a bird spreading its wings to fly.
Even when night falls, the light still shines on the glazed tiles.
The red curtain decorating the stage looked like a burning flame, and players couldn't take their eyes off it at just one glance.
This stage is so impressive that one can't help but imagine what kind of actors could perform on it.
Chen Chong was the first to lose patience and asked Butler Yang, "Uncle San, who is this stage for?"
Butler Yang's voice was filled with longing and laughter. Although he couldn't see, his eyes were fixed on the stage:
"Of course it's our young lady's stage."
"Wow." Chen Chong exclaimed, "Isn't the eldest daughter of that mansion extremely beautiful? Will we have a chance to see her? Is that beauty single?"
Chen Chong asked a lot of questions in a row, but the focus of all the questions was whether Miss Yang was pretty.
Jiang Wenmei couldn't remember how many times she rolled her eyes. She slapped Chen Chong on the back of the head, causing her to scream in pain.
Jiang Wenmei: "Bring some brains."
These five simple words made the other players burst out laughing.
Who asks whether the NPC in a horror game is beautiful or not? It’s not like you’re dating.
Even if I were to date someone, I wouldn't dare date an NPC from a horror game.
How scary.
Butler Yang didn't feel offended by the question, and said as if lost in reminiscence:
"The lady is the most beautiful person I have ever seen. She always shines on the stage. Later, she met the man she loves..."
The conversation stopped abruptly here.
Everyone thought they could listen to a story, after all, the story information here is also the key to completing the game tasks.
But Butler Yang shut his mouth and walked forward with a heavy face.
The players, whose appetites had been piqued, did not see their curiosity satisfied. Even Zhong Jiangyuan could not help but call out to Butler Yang.
"Um, Butler Yang, what happened afterwards?"
Butler Yang stopped and turned his head as if he had paused.
Suddenly, people saw his expression.
He hissed at the player in a ferocious and furious manner, completely changing his previous polite and gentle demeanor.
The players were slightly startled.
However, in just a moment, Butler Yang's furious expression disappeared completely, and he spoke gently:
"Ah, this matter, the Yang family doesn't allow us to talk about it, so it's better to let it go. It's best not to delve into it too deeply, for fear of spoiling the host's fun and bringing bad luck."
He walked slowly forward with the help of a blind stick, and there was an inexplicable weirdness in his words.
It was like seeing off a dead person.
Some sharp-eyed players have noticed that what Butler Yang said is very likely a taboo rule.
To be cautious, it is better not to investigate the truth behind it now, in case the taboo rules are true.
Maybe I will really become the first cannon fodder to die in the game.
The players were all planning to ignore this matter, but Xiao Huai's voice came from behind the players.
"Who is your master?"
Owner?
Yes.
They suddenly remembered that the master and the lady were separate in what Butler Yang said, which meant that there should be someone with a higher status in the Yang Mansion.
But they walked here for a long time, and except for Butler Yang, they didn't see any other servants or pampered young masters and young ladies.
"Of course it's the master. He went to East City to take care of some things and will be back soon."
Xiao Huai stopped asking questions.
The other players felt that Butler Yang’s answer was reasonable and there was nothing wrong with it.
But Xiao Huai captured the key information here.
First of all, it is a taboo in the Yang family for Miss Yang to fall in love with someone, and the person who enforces the punishment rules is the master of the Yang family.
He is not here now, which means that during his absence.
This will be the best time to investigate the truth.
Tonight he was going to see what was going on.
When Xiao Huai was thinking this, Lu Yuanshi moved his lips to his ear and said in a voice that only he could hear:
"go together?"
Xiao Huai raised his eyebrows.
Lu Yuanshi really understood him very well.
"casual."
Lu Yuanshi's mouth corners raised.
The doors of the courtyard guest rooms are a bit old, and the wooden doors and paper-pasted windows show traces of time.
Butler Yang clasped his fists and bowed to the players. "This is where you will be staying for the time being. There are plenty of rooms, so please feel free to use them."
"The food has been prepared in the room. If you don't like it, you can go to the Red Mansion in town to eat. We are all honored guests of the Yang Mansion. Just let us know, and we will pay for all your expenses."
When he said this, he still had a peaceful smile on his face.
But then, when he began to recount the family rules, his smile disappeared instantly.
"Although you are honored guests, please adhere to the Yang Mansion's house rules. After midnight, do not move around. The young lady does not like noise, and your excessive movement will disturb her rest. Also, if you hear a baby crying at night, it is not a big deal, please ignore it."
