Mu Sicheng swallowed his "That's fucking fine" and took a deep breath to change the subject: "What's next? Is that zombie daoist going to keep us safe?"

Bai Liu shook his head, "From the information on the mural, this zombie daoist will go berserk at a later stage and not only kill outsiders but also refine the people in the village, I think it will hurt us too."

"Then what?" Mu Sicheng frowned, "Do you know when this zombie daoist will probably go berserk?"

Bai Liu mused, "It should be the seventh day of the old men's heads in the temple, when the darkness is strongest."

Mu Sicheng paused: "So there aren't many days left?"

"Right." Bai Liu nodded, stepping outside, "From the information we've gotten so far, and from Kong Xuyang Yang Zhi's reaction, we're probably in some sort of competitive game, playing a role, and the first one to pass, or kill the other person in a role-play situation wins."

Bai Liu glanced down at the footprints left by Yang Zhi and Kong Xuyang as they scurried away, "And if I'm right, they've played this game once before, and it's not like they're familiar with this tomb."

"Fuck you, bitch." Mu Sicheng clenched his fists and looked hostile, "I'm sick of people who've been through the game coming up with cheats to abuse people."

"But the next part should be a game plot that's new to them too." Bai Liu looked up and smiled, "I like a fair game, so now we're on the same page again."

Mu Sicheng wondered, "Haven't they played before? How can they be strange?"

Bai Liu smiled: "There are different storylines in the game, leading to different end. From the way they were so afraid of the Daoist zombies and intentionally avoided them in the tomb, they should not have taken this storyline last time, otherwise they would not have known the way to deal with the Daoist zombies."

"Simply put, the last time they took a [normal end] line would have been a [normal end] line."

Bai Liu sidled up, his smile affable, "But I've picked the [true end] line this time, and for this branch, they and we are in an information gap, so it's up to each of us to see what we can do next."

With that, Bai Liu turned back and walked on outside with an uncharacteristic look on his face.

Mu Sicheng paused for a moment, he opened his mouth to ask something, but in the end he didn't ask and followed Bai Liu in silence.

...... If triggering this so-called [true end] line was Bai Liu's purpose at the beginning, then from the time they entered the tomb, encountered the ghost trap and inadvertently separated, leaving Mu Sicheng alone to cross the ghost bridge, his soul separated and trapped, married more than 30 brides and went back to save Mu Sicheng's Bai Liu almost died on the ghost bridge in the middle of the journey ......

In each of these, the seemingly accidental, or rather trap-like, links set up by Kong Xuyang allowed them to dodge the next one and, as if by design, allowed Bai Liu to benefit from it.

Because Bai Liu gave his life to save Mu Sicheng, Mu Sicheng is now devoted to Bai Liu, because Mu Sicheng and his bride got married, they managed to avoid the Daoist vampire, and because the trap set by Kong Xuyang at the entrance gathered Yin energy, Bai Liu managed to awaken the Daoist vampire... ...

...... seems like ...... From the very beginning, everyone and everything in it has long been arranged by Bai Liu.

He is just a puppet in Bai Liu's hands, following the path Bai Liu has written and finds interesting.

In ignorance of being used, giving everything and still feeling grateful.

Mu Sicheng looks at Bai Liu's slender back as he walks forward with the candlestick in his hand and the light smile that seems to be absent from Bai Liu's side, and a chill runs down his spine.

Bai Liu turned his head and he cast a questioning look, his gaze unguarded, "What's wrong?"

Mu Sicheng noticed the two sharp teeth on Bai Liu's lips, the cold breath in his heart let out, his expression and tone softened again, scratching his head a little awkwardly: "...... nothing, ask you gave me so much anger, it does not affect you? "

Bai Liu smiled casually, "It's fine, it will take its time to recover, don't worry about me." '

Mu Sicheng was relieved to see Bai Liu talking to him without any hard feelings and felt guilty at the same time.

It was his conspiracy theory and malicious speculation about Bai Liu.

How could that kind of person, who budgeted for everything and coldly used it to the extreme, be the Bai Liu who has made himself pale and haggard to save him now?

Bai Liu held the candlestick, the orange light of the fire hitting the side of his face, reflecting the warmth and friendliness of his smile, but there was no emotion in his eyes: "We're teammates, it's only right that we help each other out."

Mu Sicheng nods rightfully, "That's natural."

The other end.

Kong Xuyang and Yang Zhi, wearing several amulets, hid in the shade of the bushes, not daring to breathe a word as they watched the Daoist vampire, who was standing motionless at the entrance of Yinshan Village in the night.

The figure of the zombie is so tall that it appears to be two metres at first glance in the night, dressed in a yellow-bottomed black daoist robe, wearing a yellow crown of gold and jade, with thick-soled black and white cloud boots, and carrying a long peach wood sword, with an unsettling blood red glow around it.

Its fangs reach to its cheeks and are covered with rusty blood stains, its nose and eyes are ebony and purple on its forehead, a low rumbling sound now and then emanates from its throat, and the nails of its flat hands move slightly, like a warning beast.

" Brother Kong ." Yang Zhi was drenched in cold sweat and his voice was extremely slight, "...... Is there anything in that Maoshan Daoist art of yours that can control it?"

Kong Xuyang's impotent rage: "I'd still be hiding here with you if I had a fucking clue!"

Yang Zhi's legs went limp and he fell to his knees, "But it's a zombie at least! There's always a way to stop it or slow down its attack in the decent arts!"

"I do have quite a few spells in this book that can restrain a zombie." Kong Xuyang looked gloomy, "but none of them work on this thing, because not only is it a Daoist with deep Taoism transformed into a zombie, it can solve the spells itself."

"And this thing also has the golden light of blessing on it, meaning that he did many good deeds in his life and many people are grateful to him, praying to heaven to save him from all calamities after his death and retain his sanity, so to speak, it is a heavenly blessed ghost, and decent magic spells are ineffective against it."

"No!" Yang Zhi was confused as he pointed at the zombie, " Brother Kong, you and I both know that this thing was made by a Taoist to live forever."

"This Taoist cheated blood sacrifice hundreds of men, women and children from the whole village of Yinshan, and used evil techniques to train himself into such an ageless and immortal monster with sanity, such a great evil, how can he have forded golden light on him?!"

"I wonder too." Kong Xuyang's face was gloomy, "In order to refine the corpse during his lifetime, this Taoist used the Red and White Furies of the living to bury himself, forcing his unmarried daughter to die on the way to her wedding and forcing the old man to drown in a weir and be buried with him, in order to refine such a fierce and murderous zombie."

"Right." Yang Zhi nodded frantically, "This zombie has subsequently also been sucking the anger of the descendants of Yinshan Village, causing a lot more killings, resulting in such a village dying out even of its descendants, while it itself finally managed to fully recover its appearance after a hundred years when its Yin energy was complete."

"Zombies are born from sucking blood, and we have the blood of the descendants of Yinshan Village, this Daoist zombie has been fed by the anger of the descendants of Yinshan Village for so many years that it will automatically seek out people with a similar scent ......"

Yang Zhi shivered and muttered a memory: "...... last game first seven nights, I just felt something rushing out of the tomb, the player next to me was bitten and sucked dry by the blood vessels, the whole person turned into a human stem within ten seconds, if we did not run fast ......"

Kong Xuyang interrupted Yang Zhi with a scowl: "Stop it."

For a moment, both men fell silent, and all that could be heard in the bushes was the chirping of cicadas, the chirping of crickets, the low growl of the zombie's throat, and the thick, taut, repressed panting of Yang Zhi Kong Xuyang.

Sweat dripped from their jaws in drops.

"Damn it." Kong Xuyang cursed through clenched teeth, "I've played so many games, but I've never seen such an evil monster!"

"Kills players with no forward swing no major moves no selection conditions, is basically immune to all skill attacks and moves, and has ridiculously high attack and defense values." Yang Zhi shook his head and added tearfully, "As soon as it's released there's no time to find its weaknesses, it just dies."

"The good thing is that it's not at the point where it goes completely berserk yet." Kong Xuyang barely calmed down, "We just have to get through before then, we've been through it once, it's not that hard ......"

Yang Zhi cautiously stared at the zombie: "But Brother Kong, it was released, we can not take the [normal end] path of the last pass, forced to take the [normal end] we will be bitten to death when the chase battle in the middle ...... "

"We can only take the [true end] path related to the decryption of this zombie's background." Yang Zhi smiled bitterly, "First we have to find this zombie's weakness to control it."

"But it's a path we haven't taken and it's dangerous, it's not as good as Bai Liu who has already explored the tomb and somehow hasn't been attacked by this zombie yet They have the advantage ......"

Kong Xuyang was still for two seconds, his face turned purple with anger and he tried to kick the tree in front of him to vent his anger, but just as he was about to do so, the zombie moved and turned towards Kong Xuyang.

Kong Xuyang scared immediately shrink into a ball, do not dare to move, after a while, to make sure that the human zombie no longer look at this side before stifling a small curse: "...... bitch white ...... "

Before he could utter the last word "Liu", the zombie immediately turned around, bared his eyebrows in anger, roared his teeth, and was about to jump this way.

Kong Xuyang was so scared and angry that he changed his words incoherently in a confused state of mind: " Bai Liu is not a slut, I am a slut, I'm a slut, it's okay if I'm a slut!"

When the vampire heard this, he nodded with satisfaction and turned his head to guard the village again, his eyes lax and lightless, seemingly returning to a state of insanity, ignoring Kong Xuyang and Yang Zhi outside the village.

Yang Zhi: "......"

Kong Xuyang: "......"

Kong Xuyang's eyes were red with anger and he gritted his teeth, "Damn it, why are all the zombies turning towards Bai Liu!"
