Chapter 91 (1/2)

For a moment, Xiao Tangqiu didn’t know whether he should complain or admire Tang Mianmian for having the nerves and leisure to play mahjong.

Fei You asked Tang Mianmian with tears, “You actually are in the mood to play mahjong?”

Tang Mianmian heheh’d, “Just kidding, it’s to help you guys relax a bit!”

Fei You couldn’t laugh at all. He glanced at Tang Mianmian, speechless.

At this moment, a newbie suddenly screamed, “Ahhhhh!”

Xiao Tangqiu jumped and instinctively wanted to take out his crossbow only to realize that his crossbow was gone.

He patted himself down. While his clothes were still there, his weapons and backpack were gone. It seemed that dying here resulted in dropped equipment.

Meanwhile, Tang Mianmian had quickly pulled out his dagger. His dagger seemed to have undergone some changes from before. It likely underwent several special modifications before finally becoming what it was now.

He turned serious and his aura was much stronger than before, “What happened?”

“Ahhhhhh! There’s a ghost!” The newbie screamed and jumped off the bed, turning towards the door to flee. Tang Mianmian rushed forward to look and became speechless.

“What damn ghost! Are your eyes bad? This is just a piece of clothing!”

Tang Mianmian used a dagger to toss things off the bed and it turned out to be just a tattered piece of clothing. But this bundled piece of clothing was dark and dirty, unworn for who knew how long. In this dimly lit cabin, it was easy to mistake for other things.

The newbie looked back, trembling, “It’s just… just a piece of clothing?”

Another newbie sneered and said, “Coward! A guy like you won’t survive five minutes in a horror movie!”

The newbie was immediately upset. He wanted to refute but he turned his head and saw that the man mocking him was a muscular man so he cowed back.

The brawny man glanced at Xiao Tangqiu and Tang Mianmian, “Are you all so-called veteran players? You don’t seem like much either!”

Tang Mianmian rolled his eyes and Xiao Tangqiu smiled and didn’t speak. He didn’t know what Duan Hongzhen and them did to make these newbies obedient. But this guy before him obviously had good eyesight. He could see that the two of them were just the tails of the team.

He originally thought this guy was being prickly and he had to challenge him before the situation was over. But unexpectedly, that guy just spurned them, then yawned and turned around, “Humph! Anyway, it’s none of my business, I just want to live to the end!”

After the newbie was frightened by the clothes on the bed, he shakily chose the bed farthest from the original. But before he could climb up, he was pulled away by the brawny man. “Scram. I want to sleep in this bed!”

The shaking newbie protested, “I was here first!”

“So what if you came first? Do you want to fight me!” The strong man flexed his biceps.

The newbie shook a bit and silently left the bed.

Actually, there were plenty of beds in the room because there were three layers in each bunk bed: top, middle, and bottom. But most people chose to take up a whole bunk. After all, if there was any danger and they needed to immediately escape, there was only one ladder up and down. Nobody wanted to waste valuable time competing for the ladder.

Also, most people chose the lower or the middle bunk and there was basically nobody who wanted the top bunk. Additionally, most of them chose a bed near the door like the timid newbie who originally chose the bed closest to the door. But the muscular man snatched that bed away. Being the closest to the door meant having the easiest escape path, after all.

After being robbed of the bed, the cowardly newbie chose another bed that was near the door and climbed up in shame.

Xiao Tangqiu and Tang Mianmian looked at each other and found the two closest beds and climbed up. Although the conditions in the cabin were very poor and the beds were dark and dank with an unspeakable smell, it was still great to have a bed to sleep in compared to the floor.

The two of them hadn’t seen each other for a long time, and it was even a parting of life and death, so naturally, there were endless things to say. They reminisced for ages before Fei You finally couldn’t help but cut in, “I’ve always wanted to ask… Didn’t Tang Mianmian say that you died? How are you alive now? Can people be resurrected in this world?”

Xiao Tangqiu coughed and avoided the topic, “It’s quite a long story, and it’s hard to explain clearly…”

Fei You, “Then take your time.”

“If we can leave here alive, I’ll tell you…” Xiao Tangqiu said, “More than that, I want to know why you guys are here? I remember watching your live stream a few days before I came to this damned place. Weren’t you eating pufferfish live at that time?”

Fei You spoke gloomily, “Yes, I went to the hospital after the live stream.”

Xiao Tangqiu, “…And then?”
