Chapter 100: The Twenty-Second Person

~7 min read 1,371 words

After Steward Hu finished speaking.

He stepped back with a strange gait and closed the door for everyone.

After he left.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Now it was finally a bit safer, and there were only humans in the room, so everyone could relax a little.

Hu Yunkuan asked.

Auntie He checked her phone.

"If we divide into seven groups, what should we do with the extra person?"

But believing that a malevolent entity would simply save people was better than believing that Shi Ji was fragrant.

After finishing all this, the old man walked desolately to the corner of the courtyard, hugged his knees and squatted down, looking somewhat pitiful.

He scrambled out of the room quickly, bumped open the door and ran a distance, then stopped in the center of the courtyard, knelt toward everyone, gestured with his hands, and finally kowtowed several times in succession.

Among all twenty-two people, Huo Gai found Wu Xian the most unpleasant. This unpleasantness was completely groundless; perhaps it was because his partner Sha Xiuwen always peeked at Wu Xian?

He couldn't explain it clearly...

The door to leave this Fudi was in the eighth room.

Plus, although this thing had been following them, it hadn't harmed anyone yet, so everyone could only temporarily ignore it and seize the time to rest.

Time was tight.

Wu Xian heard his question, looked at him with the eyes of someone caring for a child, and did not speak to refute him.

Wei Dian suddenly lost the intention to kill it.

The dead old man...

Thinking of this, Wu Xian denied his own idea again.

Several Lotus Juanren with means of attack suddenly revealed fierce glares. They didn't dare to act when the situation was dangerous, but now that there was only one small malevolent entity, could they let you off?

Wasn't this just a delivered Malevolent Fragrance?

Especially Wei Dian, who was the most active. He took something out of his hand and was about to throw it.

Initially, Wu Xian thought they were here to harm people; this way of thinking was fine.

Protecting guests attending a birthday celebration only required sending some malevolent entities. Those malevolent entities didn't need to choose humans similar to themselves to protect; one could just pick one. The dead old man didn't need to come back at all.

Hu Yunkuan nodded: "Good, then there are seven hours until eight o'clock tomorrow morning. Each Lotus Juanren will take two newcomers as a group, each group will use one mobile phone to watch the time, and take turns keeping watch for one hour. This way, everyone can sleep for six hours. Maintaining physical strength and spirit in the Fudi is very important."

So the grouping didn't waste too much time.

Wu Xian raised his hand again.

"One o'clock in the morning."

"But in this way, the people attending the birthday celebration will die, so those dead passengers were sent to protect the people attending the birthday celebration in advance..."

Then what did the eighth room experienced refer to? Did the room they were currently living in belong to one of the eight?

Therefore, Wu Xian judged that the Fengxian Travel Agency was not the main venue of the Fudi, and the facts were indeed so. They experienced many twists and turns and finally arrived at the Willow Mansion.

First was the Willow Mansion, followed by the malevolent entities on the bus earlier.

But Steward Hu was clearly a fox demon, so the Willow family's Great Grandmother in the Willow Mansion was probably not a kind person either. This forest was full of willow trees; would the Willow family's Great Grandmother be a willow tree spirit?

But the old man discovered the Lotus Juanren's intentions in advance.

If so, then the requirement of the eighth room was too simple, right?

If not, where were the rooms they needed to experience?

Wu Xian didn't shout and kill the old man.

"Perhaps those dead passengers and the Willow Mansion are actually the same thing. The Willow family's Great Grandmother needs us to attend her birthday celebration, and the Willow Mansion is under the cliff. Under normal circumstances, the car can't pass, so the car needs to be forcibly pulled down."

"But they don't want to attend the birthday celebration, so their white bus will stop in advance and block the road!"

But at that time, Steward Hu was there, so Wu Xian didn't point it out, but chose to point it out after Steward Hu left and everyone's situation was relatively safe.

Thinking of the old man's humble appearance, a flash of inspiration suddenly crossed Wu Xian's mind.

"Exchanging information is only meaningful after splitting up to investigate. Since entering the Fudi, everyone has been together, and everyone has experienced all situations together. If information is still leaked, then one can only say it's one's own fault."

And because of this.

The old man's movements were very strange, like floating on tiptoes, his arms moving occasionally, which reminded Wu Xian of so-called 'ghost possession'...

In addition, Steward Hu said that everyone came here this time to celebrate the birthday of the Willow family's Great Grandmother.

What would happen during the birthday celebration?

It had already been clearly stated on the credentials.

But from the results, these malevolent entities actually saved Wu Xian and the others.

If Wu Xian was not wrong, then where did the extra person among them come from?

Wu Xian could discover him, not because he was so sharp.

The atmosphere became tense again.

"Birthday celebration... saving people... Steward Hu counting... the kowtowing old man..."

Liang Fang raised her hand and asked: "Shouldn't we discuss information?"

"Does anyone still have a mobile phone? What time is it now?"

Could it be that we humans are the birthday gifts for the Willow family's Great Grandmother?

Wu Xian couldn't think of anything for the time being, so he began to think about the dead passengers on the bus.

It was because Wu Xian had been secretly evaluating everyone in the team, so he was the first to discover that this old man, who had already died, was swaying and following behind them.

Wei Dian's mouth split open; he seemed to like to confront Liang Fang.

The others slowly changed their expressions, and a trace of horror crept into their hearts.

This thing ran very fast. If one chased it out alone in the middle of the night, it would likely be impossible to return to this room.

This place was very likely the main venue of the Fudi.

"Perhaps those who should have attended the birthday celebration were those dead passengers!"

"They boarded the bus because they wanted the Willow family's Great Grandmother to pull the bus down. They protected us so that we could replace them in attending the birthday celebration!"

"If this also needs to be discussed, it's truly too stupid."

After discovering that there was a dead person in the room.

He lay on the bed, not sleeping for the time being, because he still had two things to think about.

Everyone checked and found that there were indeed twenty-two people in the room. The extra person was none other than the old man who had died earlier!

He squatted in the dark corner, blocked by a lamp stand, his expression looking pitiful. If it weren't for deliberate searching, it would be easy to ignore the old man's existence.

If it weren't for the dead passengers boarding the bus, the bus would have fallen from that height, and they would definitely have been dead without a doubt. Only Wu Xian, who possessed Hard Qi Gong, could have survived.

Huo Gai couldn't help but laugh: "Are you stupid? That old man is already dead. Now we only have twenty-one people, isn't it just right to divide into seven groups?"

Wu Xian, Qi Peiye, and another woman were arranged in the fourth wave of keeping watch.

"Because that old man was scared to death in advance, the malevolent entity that chose that old man had to control the old man to attend in person!"

Ten minutes late, woo woo, it's too hard.
