Feng bujue followed li Ruoyu’s words and walked to the wall. He raised the compound anti-gravity gun at the black shadow block on the wall.
Then, he activated the “absorption” function of the launcher.
A second later, a few light “buzzing” sounds announced that the launcher had indeed sucked in something (there would be no reaction when the suction function was turned on in the air).
“Eh? There really is one. ” As Feng bujue said that, he had already taken half a step back and retracted his arm.
Then, a wine bottle with a Cork was “pulled” out from the shadow of the painted wall …
!!
It was as if the object had traveled from a plane to a three-dimensional world. The black shadow on the wall also disappeared.
“Waa! It’s so powerful!” Buu’s eyes widened as he continued.
“Hmm …” Aube said,”the people from the frontline of hell are indeed not ordinary people …”
It was natural for them to be surprised. Any player with some skill could tell that the puzzles in these two rooms were very difficult. In addition to observation, calculation, Association, and reasoning skills, these puzzles also had high requirements for the player’s knowledge. For example, the “bottle, glass, and violin” on the wall in front of him could not be revealed without a certain knowledge of art and painting skills. Even Feng bujue, a monster-level puzzle Unraveler, could not see the clues without specific knowledge.
“You’re overpraising me. ” RUO Yu was not as smug as brother Jue. Faced with Buu and ou bu’s praise, she replied calmly,”because when the system creates a scenario, it will refer to the information in the minds of all players, and this puzzle is built on a set of information that only I know, so I was able to solve it.”
Her expression was brilliant, and her tone was neither humble nor overbearing. The content of her words was objective and convincing. Even if she was denying other people’s opinions, the other party would not feel “offended.”
In comparison, brother Jue, who was used to’ logical violence ‘that left people speechless, was clearly on the other extreme …
“Ah … It’s a good thing that we found some clues.” Feng bujue replied and picked up the bottle to show his teammates the item description.”
[Name: bottle]
[Type: Plot related]
[Rarity: broken]
[Function: holds liquid]
“Able to bring out of the scenario: no
[Note: there is no special glass bottle. The label on the bottle has long been worn away, and the cork stopper can be removed at will.]
“It’s a plot item, and it can’t be taken out of the scenario. Furthermore, the function is stated very clearly …” After Xiao Tan read the description, he held his chin and said,”in other words … We’ll have to use this to store some sort of liquid?”
“Hmm … I don’t think they’ll ask us to fill it with urine.” Feng bujue immediately showed a thoughtful expression and mumbled,”after all, we can’t use the toilet in this game …”
“Is that the first thing that comes to your mind when we talk about liquid?” RUO Yu looked at brother Jue and asked helplessly.
“Yup,” Feng bujue admitted it easily.”It’s strange … When you talk about ‘bodily fluids’, I would first think of blood and …”
“Before I beat you up and get your bodily fluids out, I suggest you stop this topic and pull out the other two things in the wall.” RUO Yu interrupted.
“Hehe … Received.” Feng bujue smiled and passed the bottle to Aube, who was standing not far away. Then, he moved forward to the wall.
A minute later, brother Jue took out …
Item name: glass cup
[Type: Plot related]
[Rarity: normal]
[Function: holds liquid]
“Able to bring out of the scenario: no
[Remark: it’s a very ordinary cylindrical glass cup. The inside of the cup is quite clean.]
And …
Name: violin
[Type: Plot related]
[Rarity: broken]
Function: perform music
“Able to bring out of the scenario: no
[Remark: although it looks old, it can still be played normally. Unfortunately, the bow is gone.]
“Looks like the puzzle isn’t over yet …” After his teammates had read the item description, brother Jue said,”just removing these three items from the wall didn’t change our situation.”
As Feng bujue spoke, he turned around to look at the room next door through the door.””Let’s call the room with the table and oil lamp room A, and the room we’re in right now Room B …” He paused for a second, as if waiting for his teammates to accept this setting.”So far, we know that there are two keys in room A. One of them has been used to open the door that connects Room A and B. As for the [faded copper key], it can’t open the other door of room A. ”
“And there is no entrance to the other area in Room B, and we did not find any other keys …” Buu continued brother Jue’s sentence.”The only clue we have is the three items: a bottle, a glass, and a violin. It’s just that … None of these three items can be used to open the door. ”
“That’s right. ” As he spoke, Feng bujue had already put away the launcher. (At this time, the door connecting the two rooms was open, so the light from the next room could shine in. Furthermore, the other players were all carrying lighting equipment, so he did not need to use the searchlight.) He held the cup and violin as he walked toward room A.”According to the normal train of thought … We should return to room A and use these three items that we found in Room B to find the way to open the other door …”
Bang!
Brother Jue’s words were interrupted by the sound of a door closing.
He looked at the door that had closed by itself (this was already the second time) and shook his head.””Are you serious … Again?”
This time, six players were trapped in Room B together. However, compared to when brother Jue was trapped by himself, the situation was much better. This time, the space around them did not distort, and the lighting equipment in the players ‘hands was working normally.
“Achoo!” The first one to scream was Xiao Tan.
Alright … He was also the last one. The others didn’t shout.
“What are you shouting for …” Even Xiao Ling, who was beside him, felt embarrassed. She used the flashlight to shine on Xiao Tan’s face.”You’re just being locked up in a room by a ghost, right? You’re already over rank 40, what are you afraid of?”
“Yeah! It’s scarier to be locked in a room by a ghost!” Xiao Tan replied loudly and honestly,”furthermore … Fear has nothing to do with level!”
“That’s right, a person’s courage has nothing to do with the level in the game. ” Feng bujue turned around with a serious face and pointed at Buu and Aubrey.”Look, they are also very scared, but they are not screaming.”
He was right. At this moment, one of Buu and ou bu had his mouth wide open and was dumbstruck, while the other’s face was ashen and filled with shock.
“This must be what they call being too scared to speak …” RUO Yu calmly commented.
“Sigh … Actually, you guys don’t have to be so nervous.” Feng bujue looked at the two and said,”this should be a normal event. Based on my speculation, the trigger condition is that all six people are in Room B; He had already obtained a bottle, a glass, and a violin. After we have fulfilled these two conditions, as long as we try to return to room A, we will encounter …”
“Shush, shush, shush.” Suddenly, RUO Yu shushed brother Jue, interrupted him, and patted his shoulder.
Brother Jue understood and immediately stopped talking, listening attentively.
Not long after, all six players heard it … From the room next door, a low and hoarse voice could be heard …
[The king and his lackeys,
He took the Queen away from the bed and said,
It bound her to her bones.
The ocean belongs to us,
By relying on its power …
One’s heart and actions could be moved.
Yo~Ho~let’s play together~
The flag was raised.
HEAVE~HO~
Thieves and beggars,
[We will never die …]
After the song was repeated three times (in English, but the players could understand it), the voice stopped.
Then, there was a “click.”
The tightly shut door opened on its own once again …
[Main mission triggered.] The system notification sounded.
The players opened the game menu and saw a new main storyline in the mission bar: [Obtain the Golden Key from the dead souls of the Pirates.]
“Dammit! Where’s my wine?” At the same time, a roar came from behind the door.
As the door gradually opened, the players saw … There was an additional wooden bench beside the table in room A, and a translucent spirit was sitting on it.
The ghost was dressed in a brocade robe, gold and silver, and even a captain’s hat on his head. However, his appearance was extremely unkempt … He had shoulder-length messy hair and a big beard that looked like a broom. His eyes were sunken, his skin was rough, and nose hair had grown out of his nose, blending in with the beard on his lips …
“Ah! You’re finally here.” The ghost pirate glanced at the door and said loudly,”quick, bring the wine over.”
“Wine?” Feng bujue’s expression changed. He lowered his head to look. There was only an empty glass and a violin without a bow in his hands, where was the wine?
“Uh … You mean this?” At this time, Aube, who was looking out the door, spoke. He raised the [bottle] that brother Jue had just given him and waved it at the spirit.
For some reason, the empty [bottle] was now full of a pale yellow liquid.
“Er … Teacher Jue, should I go over?” Ou bu looked at brother Jue and asked in a trembling voice.
“Go on, what’s there to be afraid of?” As Feng bujue said that, he passed the glass in his hand to Aubrey and stepped aside to make way for him.
To be honest, the scene in front of him … There was indeed nothing to be afraid of. The lights in room A were as bright as before. The ghost pirate didn’t look very scary. It was just a gray, translucent ghost, like the ghostly images in old movies.
“Oh … Alright.” Aubrey answered without hesitation and took the bottle and glass … Before walking towards the table.
Perhaps brother Jue’s tone and expression gave him confidence, but Aube’s terror points dropped. He said to himself,””Teacher Jue is right, what’s there to be afraid of? If I’m afraid of this, I might as well play “Ghosthorse elf OL”(this game is made up by me, it doesn’t exist).”
He emboldened himself in his heart as he came to the Ghost Pirates.””Well … Here’s your wine …” Aube put the bottle and glass on the table and quickly took a step back, looking at the man warily.
The ghost pirate glanced at him, pouted, and said nothing more. Then, the cricket ghost removed the cork from the mouth of the bottle and began to drink by himself.
Seeing that there was no danger, the other five players also passed through the door and walked back to room A.
After he entered, the first thing brother Jue did was to whisper into Aube’s ear,””By the way … The liquid that suddenly came out of the bottle … Could it be that you …”
“How is that possible …” Aube’s mouth twitched as he replied,”I don’t know when the liquid in the bottle appeared either. Anyway, before the door closed, the bottle was still empty … I only found the liquid in the bottle after the quest prompt sounded.”
“Oh …” Feng bujue replied and thought to himself, this must be brother Zun helping us …
He had guessed correctly. The wine in the bottle was conjured by the count of script. The original plot here should be to let the players fill the wine bottles with blood … For the ghost pirate to drink. Fortunately, they had brother Zun’s Secret help, which saved them a lot of trouble.
Of course, even without the help of brother Zun, it would not be a big problem. With the “human supply station”, Aube, it would be a piece of cake to get some blood … He had a consumable called [all-purpose blood plasma] in his inventory. If the ghost pirate wanted to drink “fresh” water, he could just ask Buu to drain 200 grams of blood. After that, he could still replenish it through an infusion.
“Ying Er …” About two minutes later, the ghost pirate had finished half a bottle of wine. He hiccuped and looked at the players, and his eyes finally stopped on brother Jue.”It’s too boring to just drink … You! Give me some music. ”
“Ha?” When Feng bujue heard that, he was stunned for half a second, and then he realized … This was caused by him holding the violin.
Therefore, brother Jue struggled with his thoughts and turned to look at his teammates.
His teammates ‘eyes were filled with doubt, anticipation, and gloating … Unfortunately, no one volunteered to stand up for him.
“Sigh … So what if he’s here.” After some thought, Feng bujue sighed and put on a ‘I’m going all out’ look. He walked to the pirate and asked,”what do you want to hear?”
“Nonsense, let’s hear something we Pirates often hear.” The ghost pirate replied in a rough tone,”don’t tell me you want to play an opera?”
“I understand.” Feng bujue picked up the violin with a calm expression and got into a proper pose. He placed his chin on his neck, placed his left hand on the string, and raised his right hand.”I can’t play without a bow. Is it okay if I play it?”
“Alright, alright~whatever you want.” The ghost pirate poured himself another glass of wine and impatiently replied.
Feng bujue shrugged, tilted his head, and plucked the string with his right hand. He really did start playing.
Dong, Dong, Dong, lang, lang … The sound of the string was rhythmic, rising and falling. It really did seem like it was happening.
“As expected of teacher Jue … Even the tune he plays is so deep …” Buu’s eyes lit up with admiration again.
“As expected of teacher Jue … You know just a little more than the average person …” Aube praised.
“Tsk … It’s just a very common tune …” Ling said.
Xiao Tan, on the other hand, read it out with confusion.””It’s so strange … The violin is playing the lute.”
“This is the first time I’ve heard that he has such a skill …” RUO Yu was also surprised.
Just as the crowd was discussing Feng bujue’s musical talent, something scary happened …
After brother Jue plucked the strings, he started singing.”I touched~I touched~the top of big sister’s head~her black hair was like ink, like dark clouds covering the sky! It’s like the dark clouds are covering the sky. ”
“Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!” The ghost pirate spat out the wine in his mouth.
Brother Jue’s five teammates were so shocked that they could not react at all. If there was a word to describe this, it would be petrified.
“What the hell is this damned MDT!” The ghost pirate roared in shock and anger.
Feng bujue, however, replied nonchalantly,””Eighteen touches,”
“I asked you to play some songs that Pirates often listen to, and you gave me this?” The ghost pirate continued.
“Then what do you want to hear?” Brother Jue said.
“A voyaging song! You don’t even know how to do this? How did you get on my ship?” The ghost pirate shouted. It seemed that he thought he was still alive and was on his ship.”The songs of us Pirates should symbolize freedom, freedom, determination, and fearlessness …”
“Okay, okay … I understand.” Feng bujue adjusted the tune leisurely and started a new tune. He started singing at the top of his voice,”the great river flows East~the stars in the sky, the Big Dipper! Hey … Hey … Ginseng Big Dipper ah … Life-and-death friends, a bowl of wine ah … If you say go~let’s go ah~you have it, I have it, I have it all ah! He … He … He has all of them … You can’t turn back in the water or in the fire …”
“~~Ck? F~ck?” Even the ghost pirate was shocked. He stared at brother Jue with his eyes wide open and asked seriously,”if this was a few years ago … Would you believe me if I stabbed you to death?”
“Then what do you want?” Feng bujue replied with a fearless expression,”tell me … What do you want to hear? order whatever you want! Although I don’t know much, I’m still able to come as a popular person, such as “dare to ask where the way is,””a smile on the vast sea,””sailor” and so on …”
Bang!
At that moment, the door that connected room A and Room B closed again.
However, this time … It did not close by itself, but RUO Yu fell. Before she slammed the door, she said in a cold tone,””When he’s done being crazy, call me …” ”
