Chapter Twenty-Seven: Carnival Night, Start!

Qiu Xuan turned around slowly, and Qin Jiuyuan was staring at her with red eyes.

She met that gaze, slowly rolled down her throat as if she was entangled by some cold-blooded reptile, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva, thinking that if she didn't finish the game now, she would be angry with her blood and the whole family would ascend to heaven at that time, who could stop Qin Jiuyuan?

"Brother Yuan......" she called cautiously, while desperately recalling how "Grateful Heart" beat in her heart.

Qin Jiuyuan glanced coldly at the after-dinner dessert crΓ¨me brΓ»lΓ©e on the table, and said in an indifferent and inorganic voice, "I don't want to eat that." ”

Qiu Xuan: "How much love I still have, how many tears I still have, let God know, I don't admit defeat!" …… Well? What did you say? ”

Qin Jiuyuan: "I don't want to eat that." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"That'...... Shall I eat for you? ”

"No," Qin Jiuyuan squinted his eyes and glanced at her deeply, then stretched out his long arm and slammed the pudding to the ground, and said domineeringly, "You are not allowed to eat it." ”

Qiu Xuan: This person doesn't look very smart.

But because the man's state is really not right, Qiu Xuan can't do anything with him desperately, so he can only follow him and say: "Okay, okay, I don't eat, and you don't eat either." As he spoke, he pulled his share of the pudding aside.

But Qin Jiuyuan got up from his seat and directly took the pudding that Qiu Xuan pulled aside, and slammed it on the ground again.

Qiu Xuan: Whatever you want, just be happy.

She sighed, looked at the chaos of the crowd around her, and felt that she was in another parallel universe, and all she saw and came into contact with was another personality of someone she was familiar with.

Or maybe it's who they are.

According to the guidance of the danger sense, she turned sideways to avoid the stainless steel dinner fork thrown by Zheng Yunyuan, and witnessed the implicated Lu Xingzhou scuffling with Zheng Yunyuan like an enraged mad dog, Yang Luoluo straightened out the skirt that had just been messed up in the conflict in the mirror, and turned his head to kiss himself in the mirror.

Qiu Xuan didn't know if she was the only "awake" person present, and even more, maybe for tonight, she was the real "outlier".

She didn't dare to provoke Qin Jiuyuan, for fear that the man would suddenly be stimulated by something, and then everyone present would be finished. After thinking about it, she walked towards Gu Qingyue, who looked quite "normal".

"Uh, don't you think they're in a bit like they've been buffed by something?" Qiu Xuan said tentatively, "It may be the negative impact of 'Carnival Night' or something. ”

"It's a bit like that, but," Gu Qingyue took a sip of the liquid in the cup, "What does this have to do with me?" ”

"Wow...... I don't mean anything else, I just don't think it's very common for you to do this. Qiu Xuan tried to phrase the sentence as best she could, "It doesn't feel like you." ”

"And how much do you think you know about me?" Gu Qingyue put down the cup and looked directly into Qiu Xuan's eyes, "Or those people, those people you think you are familiar with or even a little close, do you really know them?" ”

Qiu Xuan was silent for a while, and then raised her eyes to look back at her, "Of course, I can't really fully understand a person, but human nature is always multifaceted, at least, the side they responded to show me is real." ”

Gu Qingyue smiled and was noncommittal.

"Qiu Xuan," she suddenly called her name softly, as if she had called her softly back to that dangerous night, "and what about you?" What is the 'real' you? ”

The person in front of him seemed to have changed back to the previous Gu Qingyue, and it seemed that there was none. Qiu Xuan looked at her, like looking at an old friend who seemed to be familiar, and like looking at an old friend who had been reunited for a long time.

Qiu Xuan originally wanted to say that this is the "real" me, just because I am still awake now, I know what I am doing. But the moment she spoke, she hesitated again, she hesitated what is the definition of "lucidity"? And now, is there really a "real"?

She was silent, and in a trance it felt like she was in another bizarre dream, and she walked on the edge of it, not daring to deviate in the slightest. Just because she was afraid of the unknown on both sides, she didn't know whether taking a step would be salvation on the other side, or a deeper and darker abyss that greeted her.

The change happened in an instant.

After hearing the sound, the cold electronic sound pulled Qiu Xuan out of a brief trance. She turned around and saw Zhao Ke, who had fallen to the ground, staggering up like a drunk. Then the man cracked the corners of his mouth on both sides and began to laugh, and the corners of his mouth were so exaggerated and weird that it seemed that he would tear his face in the next second.

"A full number of people have been detected, 'Nightmare Blessing' has been triggered, and a player has been detected using a trading card...... Ding Ding Ding! The protagonist of 'Carnival Night' has been generated! ”

Almost at the same time, Qiu Xuan remembered the "ultimate punishment" on Liu Nian in the flying chess game. At the time, everyone was still wondering what the punishment was, but now it looks like it's been left here. It's just that Zhao Ke and Liu Nian just used the exchange card in the morning, so now the object of punishment has been changed to Zhao Ke.

"Welcome my lord to his dreams." In the darkness, something said to Zhao Ke in unison.

The man in the silver-rimmed glasses only laughed wildly, his hands outstretched, his head tilted back slightly, and he looked at everything in front of him arrogantly and condescendingly, as if he had been crowned by someone.

The next second, the man stopped laughing. He paused for a moment, and returned to his usual polite appearance, but his mouth said things that did not match his appearance at all.

"I thought about it later, and it wasn't as hard as we thought it would be." The man adjusted his tone and looked at everyone with a smile, "The condition for winning the game is only to eliminate everyone from the other camp, so there is no need for any verification cards at all." Let me tell you about the fastest way to winβ€”"

"Kill everyone but yourself!"

"Huh," Lu Xingzhou sneered contemptuously, "just you?" ”

Zhao Ke wasn't angry, he just looked at him with a smile, "Young man, you haven't understood your current situation, have you?" This is my night, my master, and in my dreams, you are all my prey. And tonight is just the beginning. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a few floats in the air, and the things that were hidden in the darkness were finally revealed to everyone.

It was a leopard-like creature with fangs and a pig's nose. One by one, they emerged from the darkness and gradually formed an encirclement around the long table.

"Come on, babes, devour their dreams, break their defenses, make them tremble with fear, and send them into madness! Finally, bring them to me! ”

"It's ...... Dream tapir? But it doesn't seem to be quite like that. Gu Qingyue said hesitantly.

Step by step, the creatures that appeared to be "dream tapirs" approached the long table, their steps slow, as if they were trying to tease their prey and appreciate their fear.

Zheng Yunyuan, who was closest to him, cursed, then picked up the table knife on the table and stabbed it at the nearest dream tapir. The knife sank straight into the object's body, and the next moment, the dream tapir disappeared into the air as if it had been cut in half by something.

"Killed it?" Zheng Yunyuan said happily.

Before he could smile on his face, the dream tapir that had been cut in half appeared on top of his head, revealing a bloody jaw, and bit directly into his neck.

Zheng Yunyuan froze there and touched his neck, and found that his head was still on his neck. However, the next second he suddenly covered his head with his hands and screamed in pain, as if something in the air had been sucked into the dream tapir's mouth, and then re-instilled into his mind.

The man's body parts are all in their rightful place, intact. But the man screamed in pain and despair as if he had lost his mind.

Yang Luoluo, who was standing beside him, stepped back to the side in disgust, but the heel of the round scalp shoe accidentally stepped on the other dream tapir, and the dream tapir disappeared immediately.

Yang Luoluo exclaimed in surprise and covered his head with both hands, but he didn't have time to block the monster's mouth, and a few seconds later, the sweet girl also held her head in pain and squatted down.

"You can't attack them!" Qiu Xuan said to everyone while carefully retreating.

"Can anyone see it?" Lu Xingzhou followed and retreated, and said in his mouth.

If it weren't for the wrong situation, Qiu Xuan really wanted to punch him in the face. Lu Xingzhou, who originally confirmed the cooperation and let go of himself, was barely a sunny boy who was a little noisy but had a good essence, but now Lu Xingzhou, who has unearthed the deepest personality after a carnival night, is simply annoying.

The cautious retreat of the crowd did not arouse the pity of the hunters, and as if they had completely lost their patience, several of the dream tapirs that were close to them swooped down.

So everyone hugged their heads again. Seeing that the monsters' encirclement was exposed, Qiu Xuan dodged while looking for an opportunity to break out of the encirclement.

Finally, when Lu Xingzhou succeeded in attracting most of the hatred points with his own ability, Qiu Xuan turned around to avoid a dream tapir that had been chasing after him, and rushed towards the gap with the force of his feet.

The next moment, her whole body was pushed to the left by a burst of force, and her center of gravity was instantly unstable, and she fell towards Lu Xingzhou and several dream tapirs that were pestering him.

She saw Li Siyao open her mouth and said sorry to her, and the girl who was originally too shy and shy didn't seem to have changed much in such a nightβ€”if not counting the hands that were pushed to her without hesitation.

Qiu Xuan fell towards the entangled group of dream tapirs, and she vaguely saw Qin Jiuyuan suddenly get up from his chair and look at her with a frown. But that's all he had to say, he just stood there and watched, like a "bystander", as if he wasn't the one who had given up his life to stop Wendigo for her.

In a moment, Qiu Xuan didn't know whether to be sad or take it for granted, and in fact, she didn't have time to think about it for her.

Qiu Xuan fell to the ground, the gathered dream tapirs were instantly dispersed and disappeared into the air, she closed her eyes, ready to meet the fear of the unknown.

Immediately after that, she was heavy, and someone pounced on her and completely protected her from top to bottom.

She opened her eyes and saw the man being torn apart by the tapir.

It's Gu Qingyue.
