CHAPTER 88: TWO BUGS

"Ahh

The woman's desperate and terrible screams resounded throughout the castle, and the lights in the hall went out again, and a terrifying and tense atmosphere instantly surrounded the two of them.

Pei Yan, who was walking in front of Gu Yan, reacted very quickly, turned around and grabbed her arm and pulled her to his side, and the two tacitly leaned together and squatted down in place.

Gu Yu tugged her skirt in her arms, took a light breath and moved to his side, quietly lifting her eyelids to look around.

Through a glimmer of light that came out of nowhere, she could faintly see a large black shadow floating through the darkness, followed by several heavy breaths, indirectly mixed with the fierce roar of the beast.

Seeing that the black shadow was getting closer and closer to her, although she knew very well that it was just a prop, but in such a tense environment, Gu Yu couldn't help but beat the drum with her heart, closed her eyes and lowered her head, out of sight and out of mind.

Immediately afterward, she suddenly smelled a strange fishy smell, as if she had mixed the socks worn by a person with foot odor for half a month and the ripe durian in the viscous plasma, and at the same time felt a cold and sticky weight slowly passing behind her, leaving a string of slippery liquid.

This strange and disgusting touch couldn't help but make her hair stand on end, and she gritted her teeth, trying to maintain her composure while silently reciting the eight Taoist mantras in her heart.

I don't know how long it took, the surroundings finally returned to quiet, Pei Yan gently patted Gu Yan's arm soothingly, and said in a very low voice: "The predator should have left, but the light is not on yet, let's try to move forward slowly." ”

Gu Yu breathed a sigh of relief and nodded slightly.

"Shhh

Pei Yan couldn't help but laugh softly, took the initiative to hold her arm, and his voice was like coaxing a child, "Don't worry, take your time." ”

It took a while for Gu Yan's legs to regain consciousness, slowly straighten up, pull Pei Yan's sleeve, and follow him towards the direction of the kitchen.

But before he could walk for a while, there was a sudden "pop" sound in the hall, and the lights were all on again.

Gu Yu squinted her eyes slightly to adjust to the light for a while, and the afterglow inadvertently glanced to the side, but she paused suddenly, turned around in shock and looked in the direction of the staircase.

"Gu Yan, what's wrong?" Pei Yan asked in a surprised whisper.

Gu Yan pointed to the staircase with a solemn face: "I just saw a person standing there in the mirror on the wall, a girl who is not tall, and she is wearing a wedding dress!"

Pei Yan's face turned grim when he heard this, "Are you sure?"

"I would never be mistaken, there was indeed a person standing there, but the moment I turned around, she was gone. Gu Yu walked quickly to the staircase and poked her head out to look up, but she could only see the marble steps and gold-carved handrails that continued to stretch upward.

Pei Yan said: "That person should be an NPC, but since she doesn't want you to find her, then we don't have to rush to find her." This hall is bright and dark, and there are predators in the room, so we had to leave as soon as possible. ”

Gu Yu bowed, retracted her gaze and followed him, and it didn't take long for them to find the location of the kitchen together.

*

Fortunately, the dishes were already prepared in the kitchen, and they were served on delicate plates, which were almost enough for four or five people.

Worried that it would suddenly turn black again, Gu Yu took out a matchbox with five left, and used one of them to light all the candlesticks on the small dining table, then sat down at the table with peace of mind, took the fork handed over by Pei Yan, and said thank you softly.

It was already past noon, and they had experienced such a tense and exciting moment just now, and at this time they were both a little hungry, and they each looked at the plate in front of them seriously, and the atmosphere at the table was unexpectedly calm and peaceful.

Gu Yu was chewing the steak while quickly recalling what had just happened in the hall in her mind, when suddenly a flash of inspiration and the action of cutting meat suddenly stopped.

"Teacher Pei...," she looked up at Pei Yan, "I suddenly thought of something. ”

Pei Yan took out a tissue and handed it to her, pointing to the position of his lips with his finger, "Coincidentally, I just happened to have an idea, you say it first." ”

"Thank you. Gu Yu took the tissue and wiped off the black pepper sauce that inadvertently stained her lips, and said in a low voice, "The letter I got before said that it is the Middle Ages, that is, from 476 AD to 1453 AD, and the electric light appeared in the 19th century, and there are at least three hundred years in between... But when the lights came on just now, I clearly heard a 'pop' sound, which was obviously the sound of pressing the switch......"

Hearing this, Pei Yan's eyes quickly flashed a dark light of approval, and said: "What you said is exactly what I was thinking, just like what you analyzed in the last issue, it is impossible for the Ming Dynasty to have things from the Qing Dynasty, and there can be electric lights in the Middle Ages, so the current time is not the Middle Ages as we know, but it is very likely to be a few hundred years after that." ”

Gu Yu was slightly stunned, "Teacher Pei, did you still read the last issue?"

Also remembered what I analyzed... Don't......

"Of course," Pei Yan curled his lips slightly, "This is my first time participating in a variety show, so I am naturally more interested." ”

The little flame that had just risen in Gu Yan's heart was instantly extinguished by this scoop of cold water.

Well, it's me thinking too much.

She touched the tip of her nose, "Ahem, and the girl just now, although I only saw it for a moment, I am sure that the style of her wedding dress is not medieval, but more like a modern popular European wedding dress, so I guess, could we have been deceived again?

"Possibly. Pei Yan bowed his head in agreement, slowly cut off a piece of steak meat, and suddenly frowned thoughtfully, "If you were more daring, would you... In fact, all the information we know now was deliberately revealed to us?"

"What do you mean?" Gu Yu was a little confused.

He raised his eyes and looked around, his tone was meaningful, and he said slowly: "The time is fake, the background story is fictional, and the rumors about the xenomorph invasion are also made up, and those predators who appear here may really be created by the mastermind behind this story to scare us." ”

The more Gu Yan listened, the more nervous she became, she took a gentle breath, rubbed the goosebumps on her arms, and followed his words: "You mean, someone deliberately brought us here, assigned each of us a good role identity, and created such a backstory?"

"There was a Colosseum in ancient Rome, and the rules were extremely cruel, and the game never ended unless one of the gladiatorial fighters died. The nobles liked to see the scene of beasts and slaves fighting each other for their lives. Pei Yan's fingers tapped lightly on the tabletop.

"Perhaps, we are now trapped beasts. ”

*

At this moment, the monitoring room.

"It's... These two people are bugs, why did we start recording, and our carefully planned plot was guessed!" The director's assistant bit his handkerchief and shed lasagna tears unwillingly, "Director, do we still have a plan B this time?"

The chief director curled the corners of his lips and smiled meaningfully, and patted the assistant's shoulder.

"Don't worry, only they can't think of it, and we can't do it without us. ”
