Handing Women’s Clothes To the Escape Game BOSS

Chapter 52: Lonely Village by the River (18)

It's Xu Bai.

The moment he saw his figure, Jiang Xiuxiu recognized his identity.

Just as Jiang Xiuxiu's first reaction was to come here after discovering the accident, Xu Bai stood here, obviously waiting for someone to come over.

And the person he was waiting for was undoubtedly Jiang Xiuxiu.

"You came."

After finding her coming, Xu Bai tilted his head and said.

Jiang Xiuxiu: "..."

Jiang Xiuxiu: "Ahaha... I'm sorry, I went wrong."

She really didn't expect that Xu Bai would still be squatting here!

With the boss guarding here, what is she doing here?

Send a head?

She hasn't had time to do anything to block Xu Bai!

The moment after seeing Xu Bai, Jiang Xiuxiu didn't say a word, then turned around and ran away without hesitation.

She didn't want to stay with Xu Bai, especially in this situation!

According to her judgment, Xu Bai has lost a large number of believers and is just in a weak period.

As long as she escapes successfully, without the help of the villagers, it will be very difficult for him to catch her!

——However, before she had time to run a few steps, she felt a change in the flow of water on the bottom of her feet!

In the next second, Jiang Xiuxiu slipped on the soles of his feet, and the whole person uncontrollably slammed into the tree in front of him.

She pulled her body down and suddenly sat on the ground with a butt.

it hurts!

"Are you still running?"

Xu Bai stood there and asked in a gentle tone.

Jiang Xiuxiu: "...I don't run anymore."

Unexpectedly, even Xu Bai, whose energy has been weakened, is not something she can easily get rid of...

Jiang Xiuxiu thought about it and sighed.

Also, is Xu Bai able to deal with it so easily?

She surrendered.

After the compromise, Jiang Xiuxiu didn't bother to struggle anymore.

She stood up holding the trunk, patted the water on her body and turned to look at Xu Bai.

At this sight, her eyes narrowed immediately.

"Can you show up as an entity?" she asked.

She found that Xu Bai at this time was actually real.

He has a shadow, and it seems that this body is not weak.

No, Jiang Xiuxiu thought to himself.

So many times before, Xu Bai can only appear in dreams, which means that he should have restrictions in this dungeon.

Jiang Xiuxiu once thought about this question after entering the game.

In order to balance the influence of BOSS on the game, the game will restrict Xu Bai in various aspects.

For example, in the first instance, he can appear freely.

But in order to weaken his abilities, his appearance time is limited.

As for the second world, he can still appear freely, and his ability increases as the number of dead players increases.

Therefore, the game gave him an appropriate setting, that is, his energy was not directly given to him by the player, but passed to him through sacrifices and through the underground Evil God statue.

Therefore, as long as the evil **** statue on the altar is destroyed, it can deal a fatal blow to him.

Now, Xu Bai has dozens of followers, these people obey him and can help him accomplish various things.

As for himself, he can also obtain energy through sacrifice.

In this way, he is not only powerful, but also has a whole village of thugs.

In order to balance the difficulty, the game will definitely limit him.

Considering that Xu Bai appeared a few times before, it was all in a dream.

Even Wang Xiaoyue's grandfather's diary recorded the appearance of the river god, because all the villagers had the same dream.

Therefore, Jiang Xiuxiu believes that Xu Bai's limitation in this round of the game is that he cannot appear freely.

He can only control the villagers through the old man in black robe, the only NPC who can communicate with him, and then hurt the player.

And he himself, at most, appears in the player's dream.

Even if he has energy, it is difficult to meet the player or attack the player.

Jiang Xiuxiu's plan of "kill the old man in black robe, turn to brainwash the players, and let them target Xu Bai in turn" is based on this.

It is precisely because of this thought that when Xu Bai was low-key before, Jiang Xiuxiu didn't take it too seriously.

He can't appear at all, and if he wants to appear, it's just in a dream.

Compared with face-to-face confrontation, communication in dreams will definitely reduce the sense of existence.

Not to mention, there are so many things that Jiang Xiuxiu needs to worry about in reality.

For example, Ye Ming and her became boyfriend and girlfriend.

This is a real relationship issue that is more important than games. She is not a person who likes to play with emotions. Since she wants to start a relationship, she must be more serious.

But why does Xu Bai appear now?

How could he appear, he shouldn't appear! ?

"Can you appear as an entity?"

At this moment, after listening to Jiang Xiuxiu's question, Xu Bai tilted his head and smiled at her: "I really can't do it before."

His voice was separated by a layer of light rain, and the faint voice sounded with a vague meaning: "Only now, I have eliminated some small troubles."

Got rid of some minor hassles?

Jiang Xiuxiu was slightly taken aback when she heard this.

Soon, she thought of the behavior of Xu Bai who drowned the old man in black robe and then drowned the villagers just now.

Between the lights and flints, an incredible guess gradually floated from the bottom of her heart—

Does Xu Bai do this to get rid of the game's "restrictions" on him?

There was nothing wrong with her cranky thoughts, he actually wanted to break the rules! ?

"Is it because you killed the village chief and the villagers?"

Thinking of this, Jiang Xiuxiu looked closely at Xu Bai.

Without the slightest bit of euphemism, she asked straight to the point: "Because of them, you can't appear freely... So, you killed them?"

She couldn't figure out what was the reason for Xu Bai to do this.

But she couldn't believe it, it was this!

After listening to Jiang Xiuxiu's words, Xu Bai nodded slowly in Jiang Xiuxiu's shocked eyes.

His expression was very natural, without the slightest joking or deliberate deception.

He admitted it.

"You're very smart," Xu Bai said. "So, you must know that there is a thing called 'rules', right?"

Hearing this, Jiang Xiuxiu's fingers trembled slightly.

"rule?"

After a few seconds, she asked softly.

"Yeah, 'rules'," Xu Bai blinked and said, "You and your companions should all be aware of this, right?"

Jiang Xiuxiu didn't respond.

Fortunately, Xu Bai didn't seem to need her support.

In the silence, he took his eyes back and turned back to the village under the mountain.

His faint voice was particularly clear in the rustling rain.

"I discovered very early that when I faced you, my power was always well controlled within a range," he said.

"I'm confused. I should be getting stronger and stronger, but there are so many strange reasons that I have no choice but to go along."

When Jiang Xiuxiu heard this, she could understand what Xu Bai was saying.

For example, in the first world, he was sealed, and his power was perfectly restrained by the blood jade.

In order to escape, he began to try his best to destroy the blood jade.

For another example, in the second world, his power acquisition channel is the evil **** statue in the basement.

Therefore, he must guard the basement and cannot give players a chance to enter.

All of this seems reasonable, but in the dark, there is an invisible hand that traps Xu Bai in a frame, so that he will not be too strong or too weak.

As a player with God's perspective, she naturally didn't feel anything, but Xu Bai felt the unreasonableness in this "reasonableness".

"What's your reason for killing the villagers?"

After a long time, Jiang Xiuxiu asked such a question.

Hearing this, Xu Bai smiled casually and said, "In the story of the river **** that has been circulated in this village for thousands of years, it is said over and over again that the river **** is a **** and cannot come to the world, but can only convey information through dreams and signs. "

After speaking, his tone became much more meaningful in vain: "...In my life, I hate being bound the most."

So, he broke the program the game had given him.

According to normal thinking, if he doesn't want to give up the believers like the villagers, he can only disguise himself as a real river **** and use dreams to give orders to confuse all beings.

This should be something that Xu Bai, who is a demon, is quite good at.

But he was not happy.

After Jiang Xiuxiu asked these questions clearly, she finally understood the ultimate purpose of Xu Bai's actions.

For a time, after she sighed at Xu Bai's reckless and reckless temper, she was full of unease.

No, it should be said that from the moment she saw Xu Bai nod, her whole body was like falling into an ice cave, and she only felt that the moisture brought by the surrounding light rain had directly penetrated into her internal organs.

She had never been so afraid before, even when facing Xu Bai before, she had never felt so panicked.

And this is because, she found, all this has been out of her control.

In her impression, Xu Bai has always been a very real boss with almost human wisdom and observation.

But no matter how smart he is, no matter how human-like he is, he also has the most basic identity, and that is the game BOSS.

He will be trapped by invisible rules, and he will never be able to do real damage to the player.

But now, Jiang Xiuxiu realized that she was wrong.

When Xu Bai noticed the existence of "rules" and tried to break them, he was no longer a simple game statistic.

... He is more like a virus, and a virus that has a certain aggressiveness towards her!

"Now, what do you want to do to me?"

After a moment of silence, Jiang Xiuxiu finally spoke up.

It is impossible for Xu Bai to tell himself these things for no reason, he is not so kind.

He must have a purpose, and Jiang Xiuxiu is very curious about it.

"What do I want to do to you?"

Hearing this, Xu Bai glanced at her, the smile on his face was innocent and harmless.

"I've already answered this question to you twice," he said.

I don't know when, Xu Bai has quietly walked to Jiang Xiuxiu's side.

His dark black eyes looked at Jiang Xiuxiu with interest, and in his gentle tone, there was a frightening chill: "I really, really want you to stay."

As his voice fell, Jiang Xiuxiu trembled.

This is not the first time she has heard this.

But there has never been a time that made her so scared, made her realize that Xu Bai was not joking.

He is serious!

Moreover, Xu Bai, who is closer to a "virus" than the normal game program, may really be able to use special means to prevent her from logging out of the game!

In the past, this kind of virus was entangled, and finally the real person could not leave the network and had to become a vegetative person. Jiang Xiuxiu had also seen it on the news.

She thought that such a situation would not happen to her, but she did not expect that she would face such a crisis!

"Don't think so!"

Jiang Xiuxiu thought of this, and immediately tried to persuade Xu Bai: "You know, I can never stay here, I think you should also know that we are not from the same place at all, you have absolutely no need to waste your money on me. effort!"

The game is good, but she really doesn't want to stay forever.

She will never be able to get along with a virtual, non-existent person!

"I can't, so a person from the same place as you is fine?"

However, what Jiang Xiuxiu never expected was that Xu Bai asked such a question after listening to her words.

Looking at the stunned Jiang Xiuxiu, he blinked, and the smile on his face grew stronger: "His name is Ye Ming, right? I know, you are with him."

Jiang Xiuxiu: "..."

Jiang Xiuxiu: ? ? ?

It seems that although Xu Bai has been reclusive, he has not let go of his understanding of the players.

Even such private information was obtained by him.

It's just... Xu Bai suddenly mentioned Ye Ming, what did he mean? ?

Jiang Xiuxiu was inevitably a little wary.

"Yes, I am with him."

She thought for a while, but nodded simply: "What's the matter with you?"

"It's nothing," Xu Bai said. "It's just that he's dead, right? But you don't seem sad."

Jiang Xiuxiu: "..."

Jiang Xiuxiu gritted his teeth: "This doesn't bother you anymore."

Xu Bai was actually embarrassed to ask her this question?

If it weren't for Xu Bai's sudden wave, she would still have more opportunities to get along with Ye Ming!

After cruelly separating the young couple who had just confirmed their relationship, is Xu Bai still human? !

When Jiang Xiuxiu thought of this, she was so angry that she died.

But the problem was that she didn't dare to offend Xu Bai.

At least, if she hasn't figured out how to pass the customs, she can only be slaughtered.

After listening to Jiang Xiuxiu's words, Xu Bai fixedly looked into her eyes, as if observing something.

Seeing Jiang Xiuxiu's angry expression, Xu Bai suddenly laughed softly.

"Where is he better than me?" He asked curiously, "Appearance? Or personality?"

Speaking, he paused: "...Or is it just because, like you, he belongs to the 'outside' person?"

Jiang Xiuxiu was speechless for a while.

She always felt that Xu Bai's question was very wrong, too ambiguous, as if she and Xu Baizhi had some relationship.

And this kind of proposition, no matter how she answers it, is very dangerous!

"There is no comparison," in order to make Xu Bai happy, she thought about it and said with difficulty, "You are different."

"Really?" Xu Bai raised his eyebrows, his expression half a smile, obviously dissatisfied with Jiang Xiuxiu's reply.

Jiang Xiuxiu gritted his teeth: "That's right! You are much prettier than Ye Ming, and you are more flexible than him in terms of character and personality, but I have more topics in common with him, and if we can chat, he can accompany me. Playing games, that's why I chose him..."

"That's it," Xu Bai said after listening, "then I'm really happy."

Jiang Xiuxiu: "...Really?"

For some reason, she had already tried hard enough to flatter her, but she felt keenly that Xu Bai was in a worse mood...

At this time, the rain outside was getting heavier.

The sky was completely dark, and the temperature in the air gradually dropped.

After saying the last sentence, Jiang Xiuxiu was blown by the cool wind and couldn't help sneezing.

Beside her, Xu Bai thought thoughtfully: "It's getting late."

He looked at the sky and said lightly, "If that's the case, let's continue."

continue?

continue what?

Hearing this sentence, Jiang Xiuxiu had an inexplicable feeling in his heart.

"Are you going to—"

But before she could ask, she felt a dull pain in the back of her neck!

With this severe blow, her eyes darkened, and her whole body fell forward.

In the second that he fell down, many emotions flashed in Jiang Xiuxiu's heart.

There was shock, doubt, and unease.

But the moment she closed her eyes, what she recalled was the "two no principles" that the system would publish every time before entering the game——

[Resolutely do not let the NPCs notice your origins, and resolutely do not let the NPCs know their identities! 】

The next second, her consciousness was completely plunged into chaos.
