Chapter 24 The fourth day of the mission
Li Yina is dead, something neither Jiang Li nor Mu Yu Xiaohan expected.
The two watched her jump from the upper floor and smash her body hard on the steps of the music building, and died on the spot.
"This is wrong, why is this happening? How could Wen Lan attack her?" Jiang Li stood by the window, looking at Li Yina who was bleeding from the bottom of the stairs, and she was deeply shocked.
However, at this moment, he suddenly heard a dull sound from behind him. Jiang Li turned his head and saw Mu Yu Xiaohan's eyes closed and he curled up on the ground. Her forehead was covered with cold sweat, and she couldn't help but tremble.
Jiang Li walked forward to help her up, and at this moment, he found a resentful woman's face suddenly appeared on Mu Yu Xiaohan's arm. The face bulged out from under her skin and continued to surge along her skin. With the movement of the grimace, Mu Yu Xiaohan's expression became more and more painful.
"Are you okay?"
Seeing her appearance, Jiang Li immediately took out a talisman from his pocket.
"No...no..." Mu Yuxiaohan gritted his teeth and said, "We... are...one..."
She bit her lips tightly, and a trace of blood overflowed from her mouth. Before she could finish her words, she fainted. Jiang Li immediately understood what she meant. The resentful spirits in Mu Yu Xiaohan's body could not be suppressed with props. This would not only not help her, but would also cause more serious damage to her body.
Thinking of this, he immediately picked up the clothes at the door and covered Mu Yuxiaohan. Then he carried the other person on his back and quickly left the classroom.
On the way back to the dormitory, Jiang Li felt that the other party's body was as cold as ice. If it weren't for her faint breathing sound in his ear, he would even think that the other party was already a corpse.
Back at the dormitory, he carried Mu Yu Xiaohan to the bed and covered the quilt, turned on the air conditioner and turned the indoor temperature to the highest. Due to running all the way and the temperature, he could no longer stop sweating in his thin shirt, but Mu Yu Xiaohan covered the thick quilt, but his hands were still warm.
Does using the curse prop actually require her to suffer such great pain?
Looking at the other party's pale face, Jiang Li's mood also became heavier. Judging from her performance today, this is not the first time she has done this.
"Do you know that the talisman is useless because you have tried it too?"
Jiang Li held her cold hand and admired Mu Yu Xiaohan's firm will more and more. If it were someone else, anyone who had a ghost sealed in his body and could be swallowed at any time would probably collapse completely. What's more, after using props, he would have to bear such painful side effects.
But the girl in front of her resisted all fear and pain and persisted until now.
Her eyes were always so clear and firm, and she had never felt discouraged or cowardly. The courage shown by the other party was exactly what she needed to learn.
When Mu Yu Xiaohan woke up in a daze, it was already midnight. This time, because he had been using props for too long, his body was unexpectedly overdrawn to his limit.
She turned her head with difficulty, but suddenly she found a figure sitting by her bed. Mu Yu Xiaohan was shocked, and her actions also shocked the other party. Jiang Li suddenly raised his head, and when he saw Mu Yu Xiaohan awakening, he immediately smiled.
"Shh, they're sleeping."
Jiang Li reached out to her forehead and then breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, the temperature has risen. You don't know that your body temperature was almost falling below the human limit a few hours ago. I suspect that if this continues, your heart will stop beating. Are you not feeling well now? Take a break and I'll pour you water."
Looking at the other party's back as he stood up and left, Mu Yuxiaohan breathed a little relieved. At this moment, she couldn't use her strength, her head was dizzy, her lips were even more dry, and she was in a state of exhaustion. Fortunately, the evil ghost in her body stopped rioting, and she survived by luck again.
But I can survive this time, what about next time? Every time the curse backfires, her body will be affected for a period of time and her physical fitness will drop significantly. This time, because she has companions around her, she can still return to the dormitory safely.
If you encounter similar situations in the dungeon in the future and other players are people with ulterior motives, it is another matter whether your life can be saved.
You can't rely too much on the tattoo behind you.
Although its effect is overbearing, its side effects are also amazing, and you must restrain the number of times you use it.
Mu Yu Xiaohan was so stunning that a warm teacup was stuffed into her hand, interrupting her thinking.
"You can cover it for a while, drink some hot water and your body will feel comfortable." Jiang Li tucked the quilt for her, with a guilty expression: "It's thanks to you this time, otherwise I'll die suddenly in that situation."
"It's okay." Mu Yuxiaohan took a sip of hot water: "Let's get even." She knew that if Jiang Li hadn't taken the risk of carrying her back, she might not have been able to survive this disaster.
"I didn't expect Li Yina to die. But this also confirms my previous thoughts. We misunderstood from the beginning." Jiang Li knew that Mu Yu Xiaohan was not a pretentious person, so he went back to the topic: "Since I found Li Yina, there was no prompt on the branch plot in the system. Now it seems that her qualifying is only part of the plot, but not the real core."
Jiang Li took out the piano thread in his hand and the white hairpin: "I think we haven't really figured out the truth behind the campus ecstasy. Once Li Yina died, all the remaining clues were cut off."
"That classroom should be the place where the evil ghosts often visited before their lifetime, and now we can only start from this." Mu Yu Xiaohan said.
"Well, but thankfully, we have discovered the method of killing evil spirits. As long as we don't keep looking directly with the other party, there will be a glimmer of hope." Jiang Li smiled with relief: "You lie down and rest. It may not be safe tonight, but I will watch the night."
"It's okay, let's take turns..." Mu Yu Xiaohan finished speaking, and was interrupted by him: "Listen to me, rest. Don't worry, I won't do anything to you, and I can't do it even if I want to."
Jiang Li pointed to himself funnyly, and Mu Yu Xiaohan's face, which had always been cold, rarely smiled. After all, the other party was just a weak female student in his eyes at this moment, so when danger came, Mu Yu Xiaohan subconsciously protected him behind him.
"I am a big man, so I can't always rely on girls to cover me. Okay, hurry up and go to bed." Jiang Li lies down with the other party and smiles kindly at her.
