Chapter 80: Infighting

"Huh?" I looked back at her in confusion, my mouth still chewing on and on.

"They only told us not to fight each other, but they didn't say that we couldn't plot against each other, who knows if anyone in this meal has already done anything?" The eldest sister said lightly, but as soon as these words came out, all the people present did not change color, and the little Taoist priest had already taken the rice bowl in his hand, but now he looked at it as if he didn't know whether to eat it or not, and looked left and right in embarrassment.

"Not really......" I said vaguely as I ate, "I don't think you are ordinary people, wouldn't it be a bit too embarrassing to be eager to kill the killer for that little money and a false title......

In fact, before I started eating, I had observed the crowd, and no one had touched the food except the little eunuch. Besides, the future is uncertain at the moment, if you don't even eat in order to prevent people, how can you have the energy to participate in any competitions in the future? To die is to be a full ghost, that is my first principle of life!

However, the eldest sister of the back used her mind very deeply, and a few words of understatement made everyone's nervousness increase a lot, and when she went to the game with such a state of mind, it was easier to expose flaws and make mistakes. It seems that the official game has not yet begun, and this psychological warfare has already begun.

However, the crutch woman took out a silver hairpin from her sleeve, stepped forward and tried those bowls and plates one by one, the silver was still white and bright, and there was nothing unusual, and everyone stepped forward to eat as if relieved.

Seeing that the atmosphere had eased somewhat, the little eunuch seemed to be relieved, and said, "It's rare for everyone to get together for dinner, and it's fate, why don't you introduce yourself first?" ”

When the eldest sister heard this, she sneered and said, "That's it, it's good that someone knows about it when she dies like this." ”

The atmosphere suddenly became depressed again, and it seems that this person is the type who is afraid that the world will not be chaotic. I hurriedly rounded the field and said with a smile: "This sister is really joking, then I'll come first, my name is Tao Yong, I'm from Youzhou, it's a great honor to meet so many of you!" ”

After someone started, it was relatively easy to move on, and soon everyone else briefly talked about their situation.

The eldest sister in the back is called Ling Yunyan, from Yizhou in the southwest; The little Taoist priest is called Zeng Xianyi, from Jingzhou, which is now the area of Hunan and Hubei; The names of the three monks are too difficult to remember at all, but they know that they are from the Western Regions, that is, from Xinjiang, I think it is more convenient to call them three monks; The man dressed as a carpenter was named Chen Yi, who was from Yangzhou, and was in the area of what is now Jiang, Shanghai, and Fujian; The white-faced scholar is called Bai Jue, a native of Bingzhou, which is the area of Shaanxi now; The most mysterious old man didn't sign up, nor did he say where she came from, only that we could call her Granny Hua, and her voice was very hoarse, with bursts of coughing, and her body was shaky, which really made people wonder if she could last until tomorrow morning.

In fact, such an introduction is not very meaningful, because no one will say what they are good at first, otherwise it will be difficult to seize the opportunity in the later games. But I always feel that it's good to know a name, even if it's fake, at least it's easy to communicate, and I don't have to bother with giving them nicknames.

After a dinner that was not too friendly, we couldn't talk because we were on guard against each other, so we went back to the house early to rest. The three monks really can't leave the scales, and they are actually crowded in a room, and they can only lie on the spot, I can't understand them.

I had already slept for a while, and I couldn't fall asleep while lying on the bed tossing and turning, and after I don't know how long, I heard a faint rumbling sound outside, like thunder, and the door creaked because of the wind. I already feel a little stuffy during the day, so it's not surprising that there will be a thunderstorm at night.

I burned bread on the bed for a while, but I still couldn't sleep, and there was already a crackling sound outside, was it already raining? But why do you think this sound is a little abnormal, it feels like there are some incongruities compared to the thunderstorm sound you usually hear, it seems to be ...... There are also some muffled vocals and the sound of fluttering clothes.

Don't...... Is there anyone in this yard?

The nine of us have been explicitly ordered not to leave here, and with the weather so bad, no one should be stupid enough to walk in the yard in the middle of the night. This yard seems to have been abandoned for a long time, is it really something unclean that is haunting the night?

I sat up from the bed, pricked up my ears to make a closer look, and sure enough, it wasn't just thunder and wind, it looked like there were real people outside!

Because the palace is not allowed to bring weapons, so this time I didn't bring Quenyue, only brought a few packs of those useful potions of Father Yan on my body, and at this time, I took out a pack and held it in my hand, stood up and walked slowly to the door.

As soon as he took a step, a bolt of lightning suddenly lit up, and through the thin window paper, he could see a black figure flashing outside!

At this time, I felt a little ridiculous, if it was really a ghost or something, what could the incense be used for? However, the stupid and bold strength that he has cultivated over the years may come in handy and find a trace of life from the crisis.

The room was small, and after walking a few steps, I had already reached the door, and instead of opening it immediately, I leaned closer to the window, clinging to the window, and focusing all my attention on my ears and eyes, trying to catch the signal from outside.

Sure enough, in addition to the whirring wind, rumbling thunder, and crackling lightning, there were footsteps, wheezing, the sound of clothes rubbing, and even the sound of people whispering. You can still faintly see a figure dangling in the courtyard.

Anyway, the ghost is not very good at panting, and since there is a wheezing sound, it seems that I am thinking too much. At that moment, he stretched out a finger, licked it in his mouth, gently punctured the window paper, and looked out.

I was really taken aback by this. There are really people in the yard, and there is more than one, to be exact, two people, one tall and one short, who are fighting back and forth!

When the lightning lit up again, I could clearly see that one of them, who was a little taller, was holding a wooden-handled iron axe in his hand, and his face was full of murderous energy, it was Chen Yi! But to my surprise, the axe in his hand was not used to chop at the other party, but was constantly swinging into the air, and every time he pointed at the other party, the person on the other side would try to jump away!

On one occasion, he was pointing almost in the direction of my door, and from the window where I was standing, I could feel a strong wind blowing, and when he brushed his face, it felt as painful as if he had been slashed by a sharp blade! I reached out and touched it, and there was a bloody purlin, if it weren't for the fact that it was just a diagonal stroke, I really thought that the wind would directly smash the window and kill me innocently.

A thought suddenly flashed through his mind: it turned out that his axe was not used to chop things, but to ward off the wind!
