Bai Tong looked at Ye Ye and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Ye Ye clutched Wen Qing's arm tightly and looked down at the bloodstains on his clothes. His expression was both angry and worried, but also a little anxious and dissatisfied.

Bai Tong rarely saw him show such a complicated expression, especially to people outside the Lucky Hotel.

Ye Ye didn't notice Bai Tong's eyes at all, and he didn't even notice that the blood on Wen Qing's body was actually Bai Tong's.

He grabbed Wen Qing's coat and frowned, "You're about to take off your clothes."

"Let me see the wound."

After he finished speaking, he directly pulled down the zipper of Wen Qing's coat,

Wen Qing didn't know how Ye Ye's brain circuit was bent like this, so he quickly tightened his clothes and reminded him, "It's Bai Tong!"

Ye Ye only heard the word Bai Tong, he paused, and immediately said, "It's inconvenient to be here with Brother Bai."

Wen Qing: "…"

The next second, he heard Ye Ye say again, "Go to my place."

Saying that, Ye Ye pulled the zipper back to its original position, turned his head and said to Bai Tong, "Brother Bai, I'll treat Wen Qing first and come back later."

Wen Qing: "…"

Bai Tong: "…"

Wen Qing was silent for a moment, couldn't help raising the volume, and said to Ye Ye, "It's not my blood, it's Bai Tong's!"

"I'm not injured, I'm just here to visit."

Ye Ye's footsteps stopped, his eyes slowly fell from Wen Qing to Bai Tong.

Only then did he find that the wound on Bai Tong's chest was oozing blood, and the bandage was dyed red.

The blood on Wen Qing's clothes was obviously stained from the hug between the two just now.

Ye Ye's face changed slightly, and he immediately helped Bai Tong to sit back on the sofa: "Brother Bai, you are so hurt, why move!"

Bai Tong leaned against the back of the sofa and looked up at Ye Ye.

There is worry, but it is completely different from worrying about Wen Qing.

He pursed his lips and asked directly, "Do you two know each other?"

Ye Ye's hand to remove the bandage paused, then lowered his head and said, "The zoo copy knows it."

"When you came back two days ago, you were so injured that I didn't have time to tell you."

Bai Tong responded, looking down at Ye Ye's dodging eyes, and then at Wen Qing.

Wen slightly frowned and looked at them with concern.

There is no other superfluous affection, whether it is for him or Ye Ye.

Bai Tong looked back and asked in a low voice, "What happened in the zoo copy?"

Wen Qing was about to speak when Ye Ye immediately said, "I recognized Wen Qing at a glance, and then we formed a team together. We did a good job in the previous task, but then a mermaid appeared out of nowhere and stared at Wen Qing. ,Then…"

Ye Ye omits some details and briefly recounts what happened in the zoo.

The details are not very important, Wen Qing did not interrupt, frowning at Bai Tong's wound.

Ye Ye has untied all the bandages on his body at this moment, the injury is clear at a glance, very serious.

Bai Tong's entire figure seemed to be torn apart. The wound from the chest to the waist and abdomen was curved. Even if it had been sutured, the terrifying traces of eversion of the flesh could still be seen.

Wen Qing's eyelashes trembled, looking at Bai Tong's face, his expression was normal, probably due to blood loss, his lips and cheeks were extraordinarily pale, and he looked a little weak.

Ye Ye treated the bleeding wound, reapplied the medicine, and tied the bandage.

The thread that sutured the wound was blood-stained black and red. Looking at it naked, Wen Qing felt startled, but Bai Tong didn't even snort.

Wen Qing stood bewildered, not knowing what to do.

Seeing this, Bai Tong smiled and said, "The injury just looks serious, it's not a big problem."

Wen Qing pursed her lips, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Did something happen in the copy?"

In the dungeon of the seminary, Bai Tong was not injured at all.

Bai Tong nodded and said slowly, "It's a copy called Rose Castle."

"It's a single-player god-level copy."

Wen Qing was at a loss, he had never heard of this copy.

Ye Ye's brows were wrinkled, and he carefully wrapped a new bandage.

Bai Tong continued: "In this dungeon, I am the steward of the castle. The main task is to survive, and the advanced task is to take the three young masters out of the castle."

"I've only seen one of them, and the other party will do it directly, using the props or leaving the dungeon."

Wen Qing was even more at a loss: "Are you going to kill the player when we meet?"

"I don't know, I didn't stay there for 24 hours. When I saw one of the young masters," Bai Tong paused, "I looked at the sky, and he immediately started."

Wen Qing's mind was full of questions.

Bai Tong pursed his lips and said, "I stayed there for too short a time, and I didn't find any useful information."

Wen Qing whispered: "I saw someone say on the forum that many big guys got into a copy and got hurt."

"Is it this Rose Castle?"

Bai Tong nodded: "Ozzy entered earlier than me, and I haven't."

Wen Qing opened his mouth, and Ye Ye suddenly asked, "Do you also browse the forum?"

Wen nodded lightly and hummed.

As Ye Ye put away the bandages, he said to him, "Don't look at the forum. There are many liars on the forum who deliberately spread fake news to mislead people."

He cleared his throat: "You, if you have anything you want to know, you can ask me directly."

Bai Tong looked at Ye Ye's blushing cheeks, and then at Wen Qingli's brows, with a flash of clarity in his eyes.

Wen Qing blinked, thinking to himself, there is something he really wants to know.

He asked bluntly, "What is that huge blue image in the sky?"

Ye Ye was stunned, raised his head and raised his chest, and said three words without changing his face: "I don't know."

Wen Qing: "…"

Ye Ye added: "No one knows, only a lot of doubts and guesses."

"Currently most people think of this colossus as a virtual main system image."

main system?

Wen Qing was stunned: "Why do you think it's the main system?"

Bai Tong lifted his eyelids and added lightly: "Because as long as you are in the world, you can see it as soon as you look up."

"Even in a blind spot, you can still see it."

Wen Qing tilted her head, looked at the window carefully, and noticed something strange.

Indeed it is.

. Most of the floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room are blocked by the building on the side, and the viewing angle is low, but part of the colossus can still be faintly seen, which is amazing.

Bai Tong looked at the window and said softly, "Another way of saying it."

"As long as we are in the world, we are being watched."

"Even in a blind spot, you are still being watched."

Wen Qing didn't feel anything at first, but after Bai Tong changed his way of speaking, his back became cold.

He stammered, "I thought I saw it move when I came over."

Ye Ye replied, frowning and said, "It has been moving from time to time since some time ago."

"I don't know if it has something to do with the recent changes in the copy."

"In addition to the early closure of the zoo, there was a dungeon player who was halfway through recently and suddenly upgraded."

Bai Tong glanced at him: "what's the matter?"

Ye Ye shook his head: "I don't know, I'm still investigating."

Wen lightly raised his hand and said to the two, "It's my last copy."

Bai Tong and Ye Ye looked at him together.

Wen Qing explained the ins and outs of the dungeon, omitting certain things about himself and Song Xuan and Fu Ranxiu, and finally repeated 001's words: "The system said it was because of unstoppable power."

"I think there is a **** who wants to enter this dungeon."

Hearing the god, Ye Ye frowned and sneered.

Bai Tong thought for a moment and stared at Wen Qing: "The system tells you that you have unstoppable power?"

Wen nodded lightly: "what's the matter?"

Bai Tong: "The system won't tell the player about the instance."

Wen Qing blinked: "My system says the same."

He asked tentatively, "Maybe it's a special reason to upgrade the copy? That's why you said it?"

Bai Tong calmly said, "Maybe."

Speaking of the system, Bai Tong took the initiative to say, "We haven't added friends yet."

Hearing this, Ye Ye straightened his back again, and said casually, "I've already added it."

Bai Tong glanced at him and said, "The system code is B8901."

Wen Qing called 001 in her heart.

001 said indifferently: [Added. 】

After adding friends, Bai Tong continued to ask Wen Qing, "How long is the visa period?"

Wen Qing told the truth: "There are still fifty days."

"It's still early," Bai Tong pursed his lips, stared into his eyes, and instructed earnestly, "Don't enter the copy during this time."

"The people who left the Rose Castle alive ended up with props, and I don't know how many players died inside."

"This dungeon seems to deliberately let players enter the strategy. It's not normal. Let's wait and see for a while."

Wen nodded lightly.

Suddenly, the door of the room was knocked, and a gentle girl sounded outside the door: "Brother Bai, the medicine is ready."

Ye Ye immediately went over to open the door, and a gentle-looking girl walked in with the medicine in hand. After seeing Wen Qing, she nodded friendly.

The girl said gently: "Doctor Chen said that this medicine should be taken three times a day starting today."

"I also told you to lie down on the bed and don't move around. Why are you sitting in the living room again."

Seeing this, Wen Qing hurriedly said to Bai Tong, "I still have something to do, so I'll go first."

"You take good care of yourself."

Bai Tong frowned and said, "I'm fine."

"You can have as much..."

Before he could finish speaking, the wound was gently pressed by the girl.

Bai Tong's face changed.

The girl handed the medicine to him, and in a voice that only the two of them could hear, she said softly, "Brother Bai, you can't do anything with this injury. It's better to heal your injury early and think about other things."

Wen Qing didn't notice the little movements of the two of them. Seeing that Bai Tong's face was even paler, she stood up immediately and said to Bai Tong, "I'll come back in two days when your injury is better."

"Anyway, I have added friends. If you have anything, you can contact me directly."

Bai Tong had no choice but to nod: "Remember to tell me when you go back."

Wen Qing took a step out, and Ye Ye immediately followed: "I'll send you off!"

"No," Wen Qing shook his head, "Hong Ting is just outside, so far away, and no one is squatting on me now."

Bai Tong opened his mouth and said, "It's okay to let Ye Ye send you a little way."

"Yes." Ye Ye agreed.

Wen Qing had to follow Ye Ye downstairs.

The two walked into the elevator, and the elevator door slowly closed.

Ye Ye said quickly, "I was busy just now and didn't see any news from you."

Wen Qing hummed, looking at Ye Ye in the elevator mirror, her eyes were red and bloodshot, her eyes were blue and black, and there was a faint stubble on her chin. Obviously, she was too busy to take a good rest.

The elevator quickly reached the first floor. Looking at the red pavilion outside the door, Wen Qing stopped and said to Ye Ye, "I really don't need to send it."

"No!" Ye Ye blurted out, "I want to take you to the door."

Afraid of Wen Qing's misunderstanding, he quickly explained, "It's not because of Brother Bai."

"Yes, I want to send you myself."

Ye Ye's eyes were bright, his tired face was bright, and he looked happy.

What's the joy of giving yourself?

Looking at this picture, Wen Qing couldn't help but wonder, Ye Ye is... wanting to be lazy?

Ye Ye's heart beat fast.

He just wanted to see Wen Qing more, listen to his voice more, and stay a while longer.

During this period of time, the exhaustion of collecting and sorting information all night disappeared without a trace because of Wen Qing's appearance.

He pressed the corners of his lips and pretended to ask nonchalantly, "It's still early, do you want to have afternoon tea?"

Hearing this, Wen Qing felt more and more that Ye Ye just wanted to touch a fish by the way.

He raised his eyes, looked at Ye Ye's dark circles under his eyes, and said hesitantly, "Next time."

Not rejected, but next time.

Ye Ye's mind was full of Wen Qing's promise to have afternoon tea with him.

The floor under my feet seemed to soften, and when I stepped on it, it floated so lightly that people felt a little dazed.

Wen Qing didn't know what Ye Ye was thinking, but only saw that Ye Ye's expression changed a little, and thought it was because of tiredness.

He said seriously: "You have a good rest these days."

"Eat it in a few days."

Ye Ye is even more floating, why does Wen Qing care so much about his physical condition.

"I'll have a good rest," he said in a trance.

Wen Qing blinked, thinking to herself, Ye Ye has been obedient recently.

Thinking that Ye Ye was younger than himself and a younger brother, Wen Qing said again: "No need to give it away."

"You can go to rest now."

The fragrance between his lips and teeth brushed across his cheeks, Ye Ye's nose moved slightly, and his head became even more dizzy.

In the next second, a soft and pleasant voice sounded in my ears again: "Be obedient."

Ye Ye's heart beat like a drum, and he felt a heat current spread to his limbs.

He blushed and said, "I, I'm obedient."

Ye Ye nodded blankly, turned around and walked into the elevator.

Wen Qing watched him walk into the elevator, and the elevator slowly rose before turning around and walking out.

The roadside outside the building is the red pavilion, only four or five meters away.

As soon as Wen Qing walked out of the building, she saw a player staggering forward on the side of the road, almost falling, but fortunately he supported the red pavilion beside him.

"Fuck, what the hell." The player cursed and turned to look at the green belt beside him.

Wen Qing followed his gaze and looked over, the little white flower on the side of the road swayed in the wind, a butterfly flew close, and when it was about to land on the little white flower, it turned and flew quickly, swaying in the air, and I didn't know what was going on. .

Nothing.

"Damn, what a hell." The player scolded and walked forward.

Wen Qing glanced at the floor again, the floor was smooth and clean, it didn't look like it could trip over people,

Wen Qing withdrew his gaze and walked straight into the red pavilion.

The moment the door was closed, there was a slight sound at the foot, as if something hit the pavilion.

Wen Qing lowered her head, the soft carpet under her feet.

He has returned to the residence.

Wen Qing was stunned for a moment, thinking, did he hear the movement just now?

Or did someone accidentally trip over and lean on the red pavilion?

Wen Qing didn't think much, sat on the sofa, took a sip of water, and sent a message to Bai Tong and Ye Ye, telling them that she had arrived at the house safely.

Ye Ye replied in seconds: [I'm taking a good rest! 】

Wen Qing stared at this line of words for a while, as if feeling Ye Ye's emotions, and hesitantly replied: [Good. 】

Ye Ye: [I'm good! 】

Wen Qing pursed her lips and turned to Baitong's news.

Bai Tong: [Ye Ye hasn't slept his eyes for two days, and just went straight back to his room to sleep. 】

Bai Tong: [What did you and Ye Ye say? 】

Wen Qing told the truth: [I let him have a good rest. 】

Bai Tong: [He listens to you very much. 】

Wen Qing took a sip of water and told Bai Tong how he had dealt with elementary school chickens: [Those with a temper like Ye Ye need to be coaxed. 】

[They will be obedient when coaxed. 】

After a while, Bai Tong sent another message.

【What about a temper like yours? 】

Wen Qing stared at this line of words, always feeling a little strange, but he couldn't say it.

After thinking about it for a while, I couldn't help but ask 001: "What does this mean?"

001 sneered: [He may want to recruit you. 】

Wen Qing was stunned, and replied to Bai Tong: [Let's talk about it when your injury is better. 】

Bai Tong: [Good. 】

Bai Tong: [By the way, Oz has withdrawn the bounty for you. 】

Bai Tong: [You can rest assured. 】

Wen Qing responded well and let Bai Tong have a good rest. While drinking water, he complained to 001: "It was obviously Ozzy who lied to me when I was in the seminary."

"Why are you still offering me a reward?"

001: [He is sick. 】

Wen Qing nodded in agreement.

Looking at the Holy Grail on the coffee table, he couldn't help but wonder if Ozzy was a prop for the seminary?

Although the usage and remarks are a bit astringent, the Holy Grail is still quite useful.

Wen Qing thought, at least he hasn't reached the **** level in the last few dungeons.

He picked up the water glass, took a sip of water, and then spit the water into the Holy Grail, thinking in his mind the time to go to the new dungeon.

The time shown by the Holy Grail is ten days later.

Ten days later, it's still early.

...

For the next three days, Wen Qing stayed at home and watched the new movie at the residence and 001.

On the fourth night, Wen Qing received a message from Li Ran.

Li Ran: [Big brother, big brother, I came out alive. 】

Li Ran: [Brother, I came out alive from the strange copy. 】

Li Ran: [I starved to death, mother, there was no food for a whole day in the dungeon. 】

Li Ran: [Are you asleep? If you don't sleep, do you want to go out for supper? 】

Li Ran: [woo woo woo. 】

Wen Qing hesitated for a while, thinking that there was no one guarding the red pavilion, she responded well.

Wen Qing: [Where are Li Jingjing and Ye Ye? 】

Li Ran: [My sister hasn't come out yet, Brother Ye Ye, let me ask. 】

Wen Qing: [Okay, see you at the door of the hotel. 】

Li Ran: [Roar! 】

Wen Qing changed her clothes and walked to the door of the Lucky Hotel, only to see Li Ran alone.

Li Ran quickly ran to him and said, "I just called Brother Ye Ye out for supper, and he said to rest well."

Hearing the words "Take a good rest", Wen Qing was silent for a moment and said to Li Ran, "Then let's go eat together."

The Lucky Hotel was still closed, and the two walked to a nearby restaurant operated by the system.

At ten o'clock in the evening, it was dark.

There is no sun and moon in the world, only huge images in the sky stand day and night, and the sky is dark at night, as if the data was called up by someone, and the time and degree of darkness are exactly the same every day.

There are not many players on the street, only four or five people chatting in front of the bulletin board:

"What started this thing?"

"Looks like it's been a while."

"I won't go anyway, maybe I'll die in the next instance."

"I'm going to stay until the visa arrives."

"Damn, is the dog-force system trying to trick us into sending us to death?"

...

Li Ran quickly ran to the bulletin board and shouted, "Brother, come and see."

"The bulletin board seems to have an extra note."

【Human Room · Precautions】

[Dear players, welcome to the world, please pay attention to the following points:

1. Players please take care of flowers, trees and small animals.

5. Players are invited to actively participate in the game!

6. If you have any questions or need help, please consult your personal system.

Follow the rules, play actively, and wish players a happy journey! 】

Wen Qing didn't see anything more at first glance, but after reading it twice, she found that there was an extra line "please actively participate in the game", and also marked with an exclamation mark.

He frowned slightly, the main system was urging them to play the game.

Wen Qing lowered his eyes, remembered what Bai Tong said about the Rose Castle, and deliberately let people raid the copy...

Seeing this, Li Ran leaned into his ear and asked in a low voice, "Brother, do you know what's going on?"

Wen Qing shook his head: "I don't know."

There is a restaurant operated by the system across the sidewalk. The two of them were not picky and went in to open a box.

Li Ran ate his meal with big mouthfuls, complaining to Wen Qing about the swindler of the strange copy.

"That monster has two heads that are scary enough. There is a player who is even more scary. It's actually a tentacle monster."

Wen Qing looked at her curiously.

Li Ran continued: "His hand, no, his tentacles can come out from all parts of the body and directly twist off the weird head."

"Scared me half to death. I was thinking that he is so beautiful that I have to protect him..."

Wen Wei was slightly startled: "Is it beautiful?"

Li Ran nodded: "Yeah, a boy is more beautiful than a girl, I'll go straight to Haas."

"I don't know how I became a tentacle monster. Fortunately, I have a heart but no courage..."

As she said that, she looked at Wen Qing and saw that his expression had changed a bit, and couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong with eldest brother?"

"do you know him?"

"I don't know," Wen Qing shook his head and told the truth, "but I know someone who is similar, he is not a player."

"Oh." Li Ran was eating without thinking much.

Two hours later, Li Ran swept up a table full of food.

Wen Qing asked, "Are you full?"

"Do you want more?"

"No," Li Ran burped and said quickly, "I ate it quickly because I was afraid of wasting it."

Wen nodded lightly, wanting to pay.

Li Ran paid one step in advance.

Wen Qing was stunned for a moment: "Didn't you want me to treat you?"

Li Ran smiled: "I've already passed two dungeons, will I still be short of points for a meal?"

"The main reason is to invite you to a meal, but I'm afraid you won't want to come out."

"I'm a rich woman now," Li Ran proudly bought two more bottles of milk, opened one and handed it to Wen Qing, "You will call me Rich Li in the future."

Wen Qing couldn't help but smile: "Okay, rich lady Li."

The dormitory of the Lucky Hotel was not far away, and the two walked forward slowly.

Li Ran was drinking milk and paused: "Brother, did you hear anything?"

Wen Qing pricked up her ears and listened for a while, but heard nothing.

"what sound?"

Li Ran listened for a while, then shook her head: "There is no sound."

"Maybe I heard it wrong. Now my mind is full of that tentacle player, and I have auditory hallucinations."

Walking to the red pavilion in front of the building, Li Ran stopped and said to Wen Qing, "Brother, I'll see you go in."

Wen Qing replied, walked into the red pavilion, and closed the door.

One second, two seconds, three seconds…

Seeing that Li Ran walked into the dormitory building, he was still in the red pavilion and did not return to the residence.

Wen Qing hurriedly called 001: [What's going on? 】

After a moment, 001 said coldly: [Destroyed maliciously. 】

【another. 】

Wen Qing sighed, pushed open the door and left, seeing the big hole at the bottom of the red pavilion.

who broke it?

Wen Qing pursed her lips, inexplicably having a bad premonition.

He glanced around and saw a red pavilion standing in an alley more than ten meters away.

Wen briskly ran over.

Suddenly, a rustling sound resounded behind him, echoing in the alley, with exceptional clarity.

Wen Qing's face changed, and it was too late to go back into the dormitory of the Lucky Hotel, so he could only quickly run to the red pavilion in front of him.

The moment he opened the door, something cold and soft wrapped around his ankle and tightened instantly.
