For example, they feel that even if the food provided by the main food is unpalatable, it is difficult for people to adapt to it, so why do they change the chef temporarily. If you can't get used to this, you can't blame Yuan Yuxue, after all, he is usually such a good talker, and it is purely not properly arranged.

Yuan Yuxue: "......"

He seemed to become even more speechless, and after a while he refolded the paper and continued to write on it.

“…… No, it's just that I think it's a clue."

Normally, this aunt cooks, but today suddenly changed the cooking staff, and Fat Man did not mention to the players that he had any plans to hire another aunt again, or fire the original one.

It can only mean that Auntie is temporarily on leave today - maybe only this day, or these few days.

Today, Yuan Yuxue did not find any traces of other people entering the villa, which can only show that the dinner was probably cooked by the fat man.

All of this is very plausible and very common-sense. Maybe Auntie just has her own things to do.

But what made Yuan Yuxue feel a little strange was that the fat man was deliberately imitating his aunt's cooking taste.

——In terms of the saltiness of the taste and the choice of dishes, the difference is very small.

But at the hot pot dinner that day, Yuan Yuxue noticed that the fat man's taste preference was to add oil and hemp, which was very different from the taste shown at today's dinner. It's not so much that the two people have similar cooking tastes, but that the fat man is deliberately imitating.

If it weren't for Yuan Yuxue's very fine identification of various dosages, no one would have noticed who made today's dishes.

It's just a very common thing, but there is a very simple reason that can be directly fed back - that is, the fat man doesn't want them to know that Auntie is taking leave today.

He's hiding that.

Until this point, the other players are still a little puzzled.

Why did the fat man do this, even if they knew that their aunt was on leave, they wouldn't care about this kind of thing.

When they came to the dungeon, of course, there were some NPCs that were extremely worthy of their attention, such as the fat man who was the guide, the Lao Li family with ghosts in the family, and the village chief who had not yet appeared and other special characters.

But for the aunt who cooks for them, they only think that this is a copy of the arrangement used to solve their basic living needs, and they do not realize that she may have any important role.

At this time, Yuan Yuxue continued to write on the paper:

“…… The fat man mentioned that the cooking aunt used to fry big pot dishes in the village, so she paid attention to efficiency, and the taste would be average. I asked my aunt what she was responsible for during the time when she was not hired by the fat man, after all, there was no canteen or restaurant in the village. She said that she usually picks up a little 'loose work' and that someone in the village does some ceremonial events, such as a wedding banquet or tofu rice, or when someone in the village rebuilds a house and needs to provide food for lunch and dinner, she is responsible for stir-frying and cooking. ”

Kanemura is not big, so it can be said that what happened can be quickly known even by players who are outlanders.

And they know that at least there are no happy events, and they don't seem to have seen such a thing as building a house.

But there is a white matter,

And it's something they all value -

After only a deep groan, Xiao Gao spoke first, "You mean, the old Li family is preparing for a funeral?" ”

Xiao Qi's task was to inquire about the news from Lao Li.

Although Lao Li bit very hard about the specific time of the funeral, he refused to let go and tell these outsiders a little information, only saying that he hadn't thought about it yet, and he would keep his daughter for a while longer. But perhaps due to her talent, Xiao Qi still heard some news, such as a little custom in the gold and silver village.

Whether there is a dead person in Jincun or Yincun, they will be buried on the side of Yincun in the end.

Another point is that no matter what the funeral procedures in other places are, in Jinyin Village, their funeral culture includes inviting the strong laborers of the village to eat a tofu meal before the funeral.

Of course, this meal of tofu does not need to be accompanied by gifts and money, but after they have eaten and drunk enough, they need to choose the next day to help carry the coffin and manage the funeral.

There is an unwritten emphasis on stopping the spirit, and it is generally chosen to stop the spirit for three, five, or seven days.

The specific length of time generally depends on local customs or climate.

But if you count according to the custom of Jinyin Village, they are preparing to seal the coffin and bury on the fourth day of the funeral - how strange it looks at this point in time.

The suit said: "So you think that tomorrow, there will be a funeral on Lao Li's side?" ”

Yuan Yuxue thought about it and wrote two more words on the paper:

"Early in the morning."

Not "tomorrow".

Yuan Yuxue felt that it would be in the early morning of the fourth day.

From the change in the taste of the food, if it is a subtle hint to the players about the time of the funeral, then it is actually a more direct hint......

Yuan Yuxue took out her mobile phone, found the coffin pattern she had taken before, and quietly called it out.

Now this photo is very obvious as "supernatural".

The coffins were close together, and the entire photo was already occupied by the body of Lao Li's daughter.

Her face was strangely pale, her eyes widened and she stared at the camera tightly.

She leaned on the camera, and she was already very close, almost as if she was taking a photo close to Yuan Yuxue's mobile phone.

It was as if in the next moment, she would be able to pass through the screen of her phone and appear in front of her eyes.

Chapter 243: Gold and Silver Village 22

The screen went out, and the strange and terrifying photo disappeared, and in the black screen, everyone saw their faces reflected, as if they were all refracted by the strange light of that small square space.

The "......" players fell silent for a moment.

Xiao Qi's face became even paler, she bit her lip slightly, her fingers were clenched very tightly, and she could even see that the fingertips that were pinched tightly were pinched out of the blue and white color, and the squeezed blood was not visible.

She was guilty.

It's just that at this time, no one has the heart to comfort Xiao Qi - Xiao Qi doesn't need other people's comfort.

She herself thought that I was afraid that no one in this area needed comfort more than Yuan Yuxue.

She said a little dryly: "Yuan Desire Snow ......"

"It's going to be fine." She raised her eyes slightly, and those beautiful eyes seemed to be rippling, with a very firm but calm emotion.

"You trust me." Xiao Qi gritted his teeth and said, "I'll make you okay." ”

Finding that Xiao Qi was in a slightly wrong mood, Yuan Yuxue turned around slightly, her fine eyelashes raised, and her black eyes fell on her.

Yuan Yuxue realized at this time that the screen of the mobile phone had been turned off, and he put it away very calmly, without taking his eyes away, like a silent comfort.

"I know, it's going to be fine".

He said this very silently with the shape of his mouth.

The eerie atmosphere quickly passed-

Since Ah Dao was not in the room at this time, he was the only player who didn't know about the news, although he had a conflict with Xiao Gao before, and he was quite suspicious, but the suit only thought about it slightly, and by the way, he edited the information he knew and sent it to Ah Dao.

All the information now is based on Yuan Yuxue's speculation, and there is no certainty that it will definitely happen.

The fat man had given them the warning and taboo that they should not go out after eight o'clock, but if they completely obeyed all the orders of the NPCs - for example, the fat man also warned them that they must not go near the silver village - everything was done, and behaved like the tourists who actually came to visit, then they were not far from the people who stayed in the village and were assimilated into the gold and silver village.

They follow the rules, but they can't fully follow them.

…… So you can only seize the timing.

Know what information there is, even if they pay the price for violating the ban, they must achieve it.

No one can say what to do about the timing of the dungeon.

There may be some veteran players who have been through countless quests who will be able to develop the kind of esoteric instinct that can accurately time each pair and avoid all death options—but that talent is too little to pin all hope on an ethereal intuition.

They will always have to investigate in violation of the ban on a certain night.

But if tonight wasn't the time of the funeral, they might not be able to gather the information they should have, and they would have paid a terrible price they couldn't afford.

Therefore, this kind of risky action is not approved by everyone, and there will always be players who do not want to gamble their lives in this kind of place.

However, when Yuan Yuxue proposed it, they actually reached an agreement without any objections, and even reached an agreement without internal contradictions-the topic of discussion now is only to decide who leaves the villa tonight and who stays inside the villa.

The players finally discussed the result and decided that Xiao Qi would stay behind.

She's in charge of taking care of Aza who is in extremely bad shape, as well as keeping an eye out for Fat Man's special movements - while it's unclear how Fat Man reacts when he learns that the player has violated his "advice", it's best not to risk it in this regard.

When this decision was made, the suit received a reply from Ah Dao.

A very simple sentence -

"Got it."

The suit hanger Lang read it out locally.

As if he didn't quite understand the meaning, he raised his eyebrows slightly and asked the people around him, "Did he decide to act or not to act at night?" ”

"He'll go."

Xiao Gao said with a slightly ugly face when he heard the words of the suit. In the end, he sneered, "It's okay for him to go, stay here, I'm afraid that he will kill him if he plots to kill him." ”

……

Compared to the previous days, tonight is even more sleepless.

Players half-close their eyes and recuperate for the time being, waiting for that special moment to come.

As soon as the hour hand of twelve o'clock passed, the settlement panel was mobilized by the players.

The pale white silver light is spelled into words, showing the progress of today's expedition.

The exploration value jumps forward again, refreshed to-

28%。

Although there is still a big gap between 100% progress, compared to the progress of the previous two days, this speed is already very satisfactory.

It seems that the direction of their previous investigation and the conclusion of their speculation have not deviated too much, and the background of Jinyin Village is the tomb robbery village. And the information explored in the silver village is enough for them to investigate in more detail.

Since the direction is correct, it is only a matter of time before the 100% value is reached.

After checking the inspection values, the players did not fall asleep, but became more vigilant than before, their eyebrows and eyes were slightly lowered, at first glance it seemed that they had slept well, but in fact they were extremely vigilant to observe the movement outside the window, waiting for that special "opportunity".

However, compared to the previous night, this night seemed more peaceful and peaceful.

Outside the window, there was only some wind blowing and growing, and there was no movement other than that.

In the middle of the night, it is the time when human consciousness is most likely to get sleepy, and because of the soothing of this subconscious natural noise, players are even more likely to have a very stable sense of sleepiness than before.

But because of the precautions, this kind of comfortable "sleepiness" that makes people want to sleep in the past makes them more vigilant.

In the silence, Yuan Yuxue was in her room, still simulating the sleep performance of humans.
